Awake Thou That Sleepest

a recently republished magazine

Currently on sale at supermarket checkout counters is a magazine "Reissue of LIFE's Classic Edition" that first appeared in 2012.  Other magazines with biblical subjects are noticeable as well and upon checking I found them also to be reissues for this past Christmas 2018 season.  The recapitulated thematic aspects of this magazine come across as orthodox and uninspired as one might expect from the corporate mass media during the Age of Assumed Imperatives when it seems financial gain is the only consideration among publishing company executives.  In comparison, considering the gamut of topics at this blog, readers will notice that the experiencers of metaphysical revelation during their lifetimes have been widely distrusted, shunned, or judged as deluded by others who evidently couldn't have been bothered to learn anything whatsoever about them.  The subject of the blog article last week, Kathryn Kuhlman, is one of the experiencers who fared rather well in relation to public perceptions about her yet now she too is becoming a figure of the esoteric for new generations.  One can only have pity for the truth seekers who think they'll ever find the answers from any source when the commercial incentive is predominant.

The proverb "Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light" (Esphesians 5:14) is echoed in the declarations of the transcendental communicator 'Yada' in public sessions (article) when he spoke through his channel, the 'trance medium' Mark Probert.  Here is one of these passages from transcripts:
  

Now there are really no dead except those who are not awake.  Many people, masses of people, the whole human race go around with the eyes open and it appears that they are awake.  They're not!  They are aware only of their little outside dream and hoping it will be as they emotionally expect it to be.  They are not awake!  These are the living dead!  All of us must come up out of that state.  By degrees we come out of our dream into a greater state of reality.  Those that leave the physical structure in what is called death, enter a plane called the astral.  The majority enter only what is called the low-level astral plane.  Are these planes stacked up out there like chips?  No!  They are merely states of awareness of this or that human being which he has taken with him as gathered on this earth plane.  Right here in this room, my friends, there are various astral levels.

  
In the case of Jesus and public perceptions, beyond the usual platitudes such as 'love your neighbor,' one can only wonder about his precise metaphysical understanding — this was something expressed by the transcendental communicator 'Silver Birch' through his 'channel' Maurice Barbanell.  (article) 
 

Q: Would it be possible by automatic writing or some other means to tell us what Jesus said?
 
A: I don't know.  The difficulty is that no one recorded the utterances of the Nazarene at the time and so memory would have to play its part.  His main teaching was the gospel of love.  "Love thy neighbour as thyself," "Do good to those who hurt you."  Love is the fulfilling of the law.  What else is required to help mankind?  Love is the highest expression of the spirit.  Love is what the Great Spirit has to offer.  Love is what we offer you.
 
The object of the Nazarene's mission was to demonstrate spiritual reality.  If the Nazarene were to appear in your world today and to repeat what he said 2,000 years ago, I doubt if anybody would listen.
 
Q: Are Christ and Cosmic Christ, two aspects of the same existence?
 
A: You are allowing names to bother you.  There is the man Jesus, whose surname was not Christ, and there is what is called the Christ power, the power of the spirit.  If you differentiate between the man and the power that animated Him you have the clearest picture of all.

  

The transcendental communicator 'Fletcher' (article) commented about the Holy Spirit: "And now in the New Age, it is an age of orchestration — of a symphony — of unity . . . The Holy Spirit speaks in universal terms — and God will no longer be fragmented.  God will be the one God — who sent forth his Son not once but many [unlimited] times."  An explanation of the meaning of 'Holy Spirit' is included in one channeled work: "But joined with you he is the shining Savior of the world, Whose part in its redemption you have made complete . . ."

A metaphysical blogger can provide access to the data that may expand one's consciousness yet this only becomes possible for the reader intent on finding and discerning the relevant information.  One transcendental communicator (article) brought forth the proverb: "For as far as you shall look, that is as near as you shall come."
