I Am The Light; The Alpha & The Omega

When the mysterious unity between the soul and the Divine becomes clear,
you will realize that you are none other than God.
You will see all your actions as His actions; All your features as His features;
All your breaths as His breath.
— Sufi Master Ibn Al Arab


In every created soul is a spark of light put their by, The Creator.  This spark of light within the human body, is one and the same light that is The Creative Source and is as powerful as The Source from which it came. This light animates the body and is the life Force.  It is also aware of itself independently of the human brain and thought. It is capable of drawing to itself, whatever the soul to which it is attached, desires from out of the Field of all potential. This field which is sometimes referred to as The God Field or The zero Point Field surrounds all created matter filling what we see and believe to be empty space.  

Yet despite this powerful creative source spark of light within each human, there is a widespread subliminal belief among those in the Spirituality /Metaphysical community that mimics the very same central and erroneous belief on which Christianity and many other religions were founded. This belief hampers the attainment true and rapid spiritual advancement. It is this: That humanity was created in a manner that is pitifully substandard to some imagined ideal.

In Christianity the parallel belief and teaching, is of course that man was born in sin and can only be saved by the blood of Christ, or the holy baptism. This is then to be followed by a life of pious self denial and illusory humility. This lie so comforting to many, is a particularly destructive one. It is appalling in it’s power to block the light within each human who accepts it. and this ignorant lie continues to bind all of humanity. To increase it’ power, and further weaken him, man is then instructed to practice humility. We are not weak sinners, we are powerful light beings. Our only limitation is the limitation of our beliefs. Humility is a denial of humanity’s greatness, masquerading as a desirous state to adopt. (more about this later).

For Spiritual seekers the subconscious belief in sin translates into the belief that enlightenment needs to be attained in order to raise oneself out of an imagined inferiorly created status. Added to this damaging belief, enlightenment, whatever it is, since confusion about it’s definition is also widespread,  is seen as an extremely difficult feat, actually nearly impossible in a single lifetime;  only being achieved by a select few holy men, who withdrew from the world to live in caves, where presumably, far from the distractions of daily life, they were eventually able to drink from the golden chalice of enlightenment after decades of mediation and denial of the self,  more commonly labelled The Ego.

There are several reasons for the mistaken belief about enlightenment that is held by so many. The programming of humanity’s illusion has been so successful and so profound that even when those who are determined to seek the truth, take up their search, it is almost inevitable, that they will run up against the barriers put in place to corral and confine them. These barriers are built on fear and confusion and once in place operate subconsciously. many ancient sages who gained an obvious meta-human level of enlightenment, as supposed from their attainment of miraculous Siddhas, reinforced the "enlightenment is extremely difficult" theory. To be fair, there have been enlightened human who achievement came about through religion, notably there have Catholic nuns, or priests.

The truth is that humanity, needs to throw off those shackles of misunderstandings about enlightenment, whose only purpose is to hamper widespread human enlightenment. The first thing to let go of, is the old language of enlightenment with it's subliminal ties to religion, or earned enlightenment through goodness and the right knowledge. While helpful to those Spiritual seekers who came before us, that language and the beliefs behind it, no longer serves us. True Enlightenment includes right and left brain understanding and functioning and when this truth is understood, accepted and believed, enlightenment occurs in the instant of understanding. From that point going forward the seeker undergoes is the falling away of the old illusions and restrictions and the coming into being of mental changes such as intuition, and above human physical abilities that have a basis in reality not previously understood and that has yet to be understood by science.    The seeker would attain much easier, if he or she keeps in mind that Enlightenment, is not just spiritual thinking. Instead it is the original state that humans were intended to live from.  It is both the spiritual theory as well as the factual understanding and then combining the two into complete being.

Enlightenment is beyond self-improvement and spiritual seeking. It is the final resolution of a case of mistaken identity. It is the direct recognition of your eternal nature and the seeing through of who you have falsely believed yourself to be.
— Gary Crowley

As stated, many advanced teachers themselves reinforce the belief that enlightenment is nearly impossible while maintaining that it must be relentlessly sought through a variety of practices.  This is just one more layer of illusion, since a devoted Spiritual Practice often requires more time than today's average human being can reasonably set aside in their often busy lives without walking away from said lives and the families that mean so much. And even those who manage to maintain a practice of daily meditation and contemplation, rarely can claim the hoped-for enlightenment.  In fact, most if asked, would be unable to clearly elucidate exactly what this state is that they are trying to attain.

So what is the solution?. Well the first secret at the center of Enlightenment, is the “light” in Enlightenment. Sure there is knowing and intuition about the age old basic questions about human life. However if the seeker stops at this point, there is yet another layer of illusory fog still blocking the ultimate goal. The supreme energy and power in The Universe is Light.  It is light that becomes sound, or word and eventually matter. Shouldn’t Beings of Light retain at least a portion of it’s power even though it is surrounded by the container of matter that is the human body?.  Within the human body are Chakras, or energy wheels that reflect the wholespectrum of light. In the Kundalini awakening process, a tingling buzzing energy animates these chakras. These sensations in the seeker’s spine, are often rightly described as electricity.  Is there a connection between electricity and light?.

Even without any understanding of physics, everyone can see the evident connection. Within our bodies, light in the guise of electrical functioning is equally evident in our Central Nervous System, brain and heart. This electrical based functioning of our nerve cells, brain and heart follows the laws of physics and creates electro-magnetic fields in and around our bodies. Most seekers have heard of the Heart field which surrounds the human bodies. It is indeed real and now measurable. Are there conclusions can be drawn from the purpose and function of light when applied to humans. There certainly are. The Source, Life, Life Force and The Spark of Light within each human, also known as The higher self, The descriptions of Love-filled Light that is described by those who have had out of body experiences, filled with are all one and the same; Light. Yet in spite of the amazing qualities and power of light.  Beings of Light continue to live dis-empowered lives as if they were created as beings of darkness.  

Complete Enlightenment encompasses this knowledge and finally places the power of light within the reach of Enlightened soul. Enlightened Beings of light,  operate on a different level than other humans, even while still being in the earthly reality. Love is at the center of, and the force behind enlightenment. This might seem odd in context of the previous explanations about light and electricity. Yet the emotion that humans experience as love is the equivalent emotion to the force known as electromagnetism.  Love is desire, working through attraction. Magnetism is a physical, albeit invisible, force that works through attraction. Transforming concepts of physics and mathematics into human emotions, has enabled life to experience itself through powerful creative human feelings. It has also given humans the ability to control and to create their own reality.

In the arena of love, the Enlightened soul progresses to become love. When that soul is infused with unconditional love for the self as well all of humanity, there is no longer any striving,. Being is the new norm. Also importantly, there is no striving to be humble.  Love makes humility obsolete. Humility can never take the place of love. Humility does not elevate others even when it is sensed. In the bible, Jesus states that the only commandment that we need to follow is love.  And the same is true in the quest for Enlightenment. Love elevates others. Love inspires and Love creates a powerful Force Field for both the holder and anyone at the receiving end. 

Love transmutes darkness with it’s light. and opens the intuition, so that knowledge is increased without unnecessary struggles, self denial and withdrawal from life. It is the love between the physical and the higher self, one to the other that accomplishes.  Love, in human terms; electromagnetism in terms of physics, is the glue that holds our universe together.  Love is a magnet.

To achieve the state of enlightenment, the seeker must begin at the end.  He or she must accept that you already are all that you are seeking to become. Now more than ever, it is time to be brave, when humanity and the planet seems to be threatened with chaos.. It is time to take hold of the knowledge that humans are a powerful spiritual beings rather than weaklings who need to struggle and accept their fate. Each human is the Life force that inhabits the corporeal body, rather than the bodies themselves. This is the truth of enlightenment that loosens the fetters when accepted.

Beginning right now, throw off doubt and inactivity and declare yourself as The Light, as The Alpha and the Omega, and repeat it until you know and feel it to be true. You are not declaring that your physical being is The Alpha and Omega, But that the light of the spirit within you merits this powerful description. Knowledge accepted but not acted on, have no power to effect change. Leave weakness and doubt behind and stand in your power.
