EXPANDED CONSCIOUSNESS

Rev. Mary Louise Ruffner

“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I with them.”
~ Matthew 18:20 ~

“Christ is Universal Idea, and each one “puts on the Christ: to the degree that he (she) surrenders a limited sense of Life to the Divine Realization of wholeness and unity with Good, Spirit, God.
~The Science of Mind, p. 579.1

The core concept taught at Centers for Spiritual Living is “Oneness.” The philosophy espouses that every living being is unified with the One Source of all life, God.  Therefore, all beings are unified with each other.

Throughout the ages, this life principle has been taught in various ways. Jesus taught it when he said, in effect, that whenever people of like-thinking agree upon ideas such as love, peace, beauty, and joy, the IAM Presence of God is activated, and all these things are possible as our experience.  In other words, “I AM” is the word of God within us. It is a power-filled declaration from which all things are formed and made manifest. From this perspective we can see the benefit of community, a place where our common unity is shared.

The awareness that proclaims that one’s very own self is an individualized center of consciousness within the One Infinite Spirit, has been spontaneously known by mystics of all time.   Many of us are consciously engaged in a process of awakening to the changeless Truth.   While the spiritual practices that we love and adore may take time to take root in our consciousness; nonetheless, with consistency we are sure to have an epiphany of the life divine in whom we live, move, and have our being.

The moment we begin imagining a greater version of ourselves, we begin to hear the mystical messages of our thoughts from our higher understanding.  We begin to respond to that inner urge and divine guidance. We begin to nurture the Christ Consciousness within us that is being born into its greater yet to be.

In this enlightened state of consciousness, we begin to see humanity as One Universal Family. We begin to see the Christ Presence at the center of every living being. In this heightened state of awareness, we begin to see Christ, not just in one or two; but in the masses. We begin to identify every man, woman, child, animal, and plant as an individualization of the One Presence and the One Power that permeates eternity.

We may begin to see the Christ showing up in mass and living as ascending and descending generations. We begin to see this Christ-mass calling themselves The Greatest, The Silent, Baby Boomers, Xs, Millennials, Zs, and Alphas, all living together peacefully on earth and with goodwill towards all.

We begin to prepare room in our hearts and minds for the generation of Betas who are to come. We begin to eagerly await the expanded consciousness of love and light that they surely bring.  

We begin to see the mystical meaning of every symbol of Light, Star, Angel, Tree, Animal, Baby and more.  We begin to hear the meaning of every song being sung, and the love that imbues every gift that is given and received.

Yes, how fulfilling it is to give Joy to the World. Merry Christmas!
