Attaining Christhood – Giving up the Desire to Be Right

In this article I going to  discuss Master Kuan yin’s words:« What we desire to see is for you to attain individual Christhood, but in order to attain it, you need to give up the desire to be right. This does not apply only to your spiritual teaching, it applies in everyday life»[1].

We Will Have Remnants of Ego Until we Ascend

I remember the words of Master Jesus that I always keep in mind as a reminder of my condition as a spiritual being embodied on Earth:

« As long as I keep connected to my four material bodies, I will have an ego». Of course, this ego is not as strong as it used to be, nor does it have as many structures as it did when I was less advanced on my spiritual path.

But until I ascend, I will still have an ego. As Master Jesus once said at a conference, if I didn’t have an ego, I would have ascended. And I didn't.

As we progress to higher levels of consciousness after the fundamental initiation of the 96^th level, we accept changing our sense of identity and letting die the separate, mortal sense of identity.

However, there is still a long way to go before we can dismantle the structures of the separate self in our emotional, mental and identity bodies.

 At each of these levels, the first step in the process is recognising that we are not the emotional, mental or identity bodies that make up the vehicle of the soul.

This is not an intellectual process, but an experiential one, because our sense of identity is altered by every illusion we overcome, our sense of identity is also altered. We must discover ourselves as spiritual beings, and not as material bodies.

I did not mention the physical body because, as Mother Mary taught us, it is created in each new incarnation and most people who begin to seek the spiritual path no longer identify completely with it.

However, I know from personal experience that, at levels above the 96^th,there are still  aspects linked   to the physical body and also related to the other material bodies — emotional, mental, and identity..

The relationship between material bodies is not linear. Although the masters described a hierarchical relationship from top to bottom, passing from the level of identity to the lowest level — the physical — it must be remembered that when one enters total duality, as happened with humanity in the Fall, the process is reversed.

The Masters also informed us of this; for example, the Archangel Michael mentioned it in a conference some years ago.

What I want to point out with all this description is that, while it's true that we attain some degree of 'Christhood' as we progress, we also always have the ego trying to override our spiritual identity.

The ego continuously seeks validation and always tries to affirm its value. Therefore, we must be vigilant about our desire to validate any 'unquestioned truth'.

One of the most common ways we do this is by searching for 'absolute truth', supposedly revealed by God, a guru, an ideology or a religion.

When we identify with a theory, guru or body of knowledge that we believe comes from a master or religion, and seek to prove that we are on the side of 'good' simply because we hold this belief, which we consider to be an 'unquestionable truth' and therefore a dogma, we immediately place ourselves in a position of conflict and opposition.

We may believe that we are on the side of 'truth', God, or whatever. But in reality, we are only operating within the realm of duality, where we immediately reject anything that comes before us.

This is understandable since we have lived in duality for a long time, but this mental state, by definition, excludes any access to the Christ mind.

There is always a way to recognise whether we are in tune with the mind of Christ or whether we are operating within the realm of duality. Duality always seeks to validate itself against anything else; it is an expression of division and conflict. If my opinion is true, then all others must be false — whether they concern a theory, God, religion or ideology. It always makes value judgements because it needs to find legitimacy.

The dualistic mind is merely a tool that the conceptual mind can use; it has no reality as a mind existing in opposition to itself. Therefore, it uses reasoning to formulate explanations and justifications that can legitimise it.

The Christ-like mind, however, needs no reasons or legitimisation beyond revealing an undeniable truth.

It reveals; it does not seek to justify itself. It reveals itself to those who want to see, but does not impose itself on anyone. It simply offers a pure, instantaneous and neutral vision that does not exclude, take sides, show partiality or cause division.

It is the unifying mind because it connects everything and every being with the same acceptance born of the creator's unconditional love.

It is a gift to us all, offering peace, union and love. This is Christhood at its highest level. Everyone can experience it if they choose to.
