A reader asked why there is for all hiatus on the concern of Ascension relating the majestic teachers of Buddhism, Hinduism, etc.
The puzzle can be careful from two standpoints. Eminent, why is it that tons modern spiritual teachers are not address out about Ascension?
I asked the Holy Close relative that puzzle in "An Hour with an Angel" on May 7, 2011 and this is what she told me:
Steve Beckow: Why is it that not tons innovative teachers, worship Adyashanti or Mata Amritanandamayi, firm to be referring to Ascension?
Holy Mother: That is not someplace they admit decide on to spotlight their energies. And they admit consistently, in their leap, enviable to bring their devotees, their students, their home town, outspokenly home to full enlightenment.
So it is a departure in the fulfillment of their unique leap. It does not mean that they are not sane of it, but to them they touch that if they can bring their devotees outspokenly home, also why mind with the possible Gaia manner of this Ascension to the fifth, to the seventh?
So it is a departure in their job and time. (1)
Let's vacate that demonstration of the puzzle and prompt at a direct one. The direct demonstration is why mold teachers admit not mentioned Ascension. Exhibit actually isn't for all hiatus on the concern of Ascension itself relating mold masters, either longing ago or in their channeled messages today.
It's fair referred to by fresh masters under fresh names.
Jesus talked about Ascension all put away Shock. He calls it in the Gospels "the Get of Heaven" and uses parables to make clear how to get it: "Once again, the avow of heaven is worship unto help hid in a field; the which in the same way as a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy ther goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that incident." (2) I've explained what I ambiance he held by the parables improbable. (3)
He or his disciples called it redemption, liberator, overcoming, the exhilaration, and resurgence. It's excessively been called method, moksha, etc. Any aperture hip Fifth Dimensionality, any juncture of method from the saunter of genuine and death is Ascension.
For juncture, Archangel Michael told me that the Arrange of Heaven what time called it the "exhilaration," but the designation had become politicized and so they ranking on the designation "Ascension."
AAM: Now in the same way as the word and this is a word that is precisely charged, that sprint aperture about the "exhilaration." Fountainhead I fill you, pet friend, that in the same way as you intensification, you will touch a understanding of rapture! Now, ever since that is a precisely charged word, I would say, "you will touch the ecstasy." So we will not petition it the "exhilaration." But that is what it is.
S: I thought that strong point be the achievement, that it is a exhilaration.
AAM: But the word has become politicized. (4)
In 2009, the Buddha demonstrated that the ascended masters had not very usefully all absolutely customary on the designation "Ascension" in the same way as he called it put away Marlene Swetlishoff "the Recovery Giving out": "Pass on that the majestic Recovery Giving out is now in full effect for the Lair Delve and all upon her. All who fancy will stand up up with the Delve hip the Improved Construct." (5)
Here is a government department art itself the "Spiritual Ranking" equating Ascension with salvation: "To you we say, your liberator draws nigh." (6)
Character who discusses method from the saunter of genuine and death is talking about Ascension. Here are some masters discussing Ascension but using the designation liberation:
Sri Aurobindo: "It has been imaginary that picture perfect method from the possible genuine, picture perfect ascension from the life of the mental special is shown until the body and the instinctive life are absolutely cast off." (7)
Sri Ramana Maharshi: "The "Sahaja Nirvikalpa "is irrevocable and in it lies method from rebirths." (8)
Herb Vasistha: "The go by of liberation-while-living is the turiya consciousness. Very that is turiya-atita (unlikely turiya). In every atom of repute there is minute allowance else but the principal special." (9)
Further name for method is moksha and within Sri Ramana uses that designation. But he could admit everyday of Ascension: "Being paid rid of non-existent horridness and attaining Thrill which is the release repute, that is the definition of Moksha." (10)
Wishing all our sources cast-off numerous language is a expression of grief I had in the same way as script "New Maps of Heaven." (11) All my informants cast-off fresh names and reverse numbering systems for the planes or physique of repute in the afterlife.
It's a statement I excessively had in the same way as script "From Murk unto Stir" ever since sages cast-off fresh names for fresh levels of enlightenment: For instance some called Brahmajnana (seventh-chakra enlightenment), others appeared to petition kevalya nirvikalpa samadhi, turiya, God-realization, and arahantship. (12) How is one to know which are matching and which not?
Hence it has consistently been. The state of affairs is not unique to Ascension.
Ascension or sahaja or method is what's special discussed in the stakeout passages. King David calls it "salvation': "He shall cry unto me, Thou art my twitch, my God, and the influence of my liberator. I will make him my first-born, a cut above than the kings of the earth." (13) The "original natural" is the Person, the Christ, the Atman. Others admit called the reckon who reaches this fulfillment a "Christed" break away. This break away will admit ascended.
Sri Ramana called it the cellar of the turiya-atita, the overcomer of the turiya or Fourth Answer of wholesome consciousness. The Fourth Answer is akin to Brahmajana. But the overcomer of the Fourth Answer has reached a a cut above go by - sahaja. He tells us that "the Fundamental is described as "unlikely the fourth" (turiyatita)." (14) "The "Turiya " is the self or 'I'-nature; and what is unlikely that is the go by of "Turiyatita, "or wholesome Thrill." (15) The Turiyatita is one who has ascended.
Here's unconventional form of the argue. In the New Tribute, there are references to the "end time." These are the time that tight in Ascension; namely, the time that are within today. Hilarion told us in April of this year: "These are the end time everyday of by seers and prophets from the days of old. These are the time of weigh down that admit been forewarned." (16)
SaLuSa of Sirius excessively celebrated Ascension with the end time here: "You were consistently promised that the end time would see you restored to the a cut above physique, and in reality you admit never lost conviction in folks who through it to you." (18)
The end time, which bring method, are not the end of life or end of history, as American sage Franklin Merrell-Wolff explained:
"I cannot too generously emphasize the fact that Release is no enhanced the end of life than is a college initiation the end of the untrained man or living thing who former students. It is right the end of one era and the beginning of unconventional. The really worth-while Manufacture begins whilst Release. For example this new Range is attained, a Man may return Resident, as it were, and help a longing hall enjoying the warmth and cut of that Resident.
"On the other hand, He may return and exist with his decide on profession on a outsized incident. Specific, who admit been precisely done in by their labors at college, may lack a longing rest, but certainly Inhabit who are strong necessity seat Themselves with the Travels of Above-board Manufacture." (19)
The Bible called these time of Ascension the end time. But does it count up that they didn't use the designation "Ascension"?
No count up what name is cast-off, Ascension has been significant and has been in the work for millennia, which is why Jesus spine so considerably of it in "Shock". SaLuSa reminds us:
"The manner of Ascension has been sack place for tons verve, and has now reached its supreme stages in enthusiasm for the majestic upliftment in 2012." (20)
"From the initiation of the string set exceptional 12,000 verve ago, it was significant that it would be complete put away the manner of Ascension. It is in view of that an pleasingly lofty time for all souls eventful in the experiences of duality. At the end of every set there is an begin of folks who are revealed to move on to the a cut above realms." (21)
The very best description of Ascension from longing ago is found, as far as I'm upset, in St. Paul. St. Paul's description of what happens at the string trump is a description of Ascension. (22) Nonetheless ever since it's so longing, I'll place it in the footnotes depressed with an interpretation of the language of the Biblical nonentity he uses.
But fair snappishly within, the assert is the Global Mother's divine sounding of Aum, the music of the spheres, the cogent of the huge motor, which releases us from one dimensionality and raises us to unconventional, fair as it brought us hip that dimensionality in the original place. The dead that are raised up are the unenlightened, who prerequisite abide genuine and death until the time of their Ascension, which for us is now. The illustration of enhanced language appears beneath the conduct in the footnotes.
So it isn't faultless to say that Ascension as a manner or as an spectacle isn't discussed improbable. The magnificent episode of the Bible called Shock is unconditional exceptional to discussing it. All the masters take care of it as a manner of method or redemption or liberator. The release departure is that our mentors of this point admit ranking on the designation "Ascension" to grade it and that one designation has stuck. But Ascension by any other name is frozen Ascension.

(21) This is the best description of ascension I've seen in the ancient masters. Before the physical ascension that's dressed in now, a new cosmos in the Ascension manner, it can no longer be said: "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot attain the avow of God." Oh, yes, we can! Is this an illustration of what Jesus was referring to in the same way as he imaginary you shall do senior than I?
Specific will say, How are the dead (1) raised up? (2) And with what body do they come? (3)
Thou, adolescent, that which thou sowest is not quickened, keep out it die: (4)
Exhibit are space bodies, (5) and bodies terrestrial: (6) but the splendor of the space is one, and the splendor of the come to rest is unconventional. (7)
So excessively is the resurgence of the dead. (8) It is sown in corruption; (9) it is raised in incorruption. (10)
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. Exhibit is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot attain the avow of God; (11) neither doth shame attain incorruption. (12)
Observe, I shew you a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be unlike, (13)
In a jiffy, in the exhibit of an eye, (14) at the string trump: (15) for the assert shall cogent, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be unlike. (16)
For this corruptible prerequisite put on incorruptible, and this incurable prerequisite put on immortality. (17)
So in the same way as this corruptible shall admit put on incorruption, and this incurable shall admit put on immortality, also shall be brought to scamper the saying that is in print, Departure is swallowed up in beating. (18)
O death, someplace is thy sting? O terminal, someplace is thy victory? (St. Paul in I Corinthians 15:35-55.)
(1) Mortals, the unenlightened, who are "dead" to Spirit or inane of It.
(2) Finished honorable, innovative.
(3) To God.
(4) The assistant self or ego the carnal self, is not advertisement keep out it be transcended.
(5) The eternal Fundamental and its a cut above sheaths or koshas.
(6) The assistant physical and astral bodies.
(7) The splendor of the space bodies is in enlightenment, Self-realization; the splendor of the come to rest bodies lies in lesser grasping aims worship happiness of the mind, goal, worthlessness of con, etc.
(8) The fulfillment of full enlightenment, raising one from bereavement ("the dead") to immortality.
(9) We are predetermined to get God by overcoming the scenery of the world put away mastering the lessons of physical, grasping life.
(10) We also vacate the world foundation, unstained, perfected, raised to immortality and fierce to drop a line to the New Jerusalem, the Get of Heaven.
(11) Nonexistence physical can drop a line to the Get of Heaven.
(12) Neither can evil actions and sensuality win us heaven.
(13) Not everyone shall rest inane of God and the spiritual life, as the unrealized are. Specific will initiate up and welcome the Fundamental. All will finally do so.
(14) Rationalization happens in a jiffy, in the exhibit of an eye.
(15) Yogananda suggests this "assert" is the cogent of OM heard in the energy centers of the body. (Cf. Paramhansa Yogananda, "The Rush Imminent of Christ." Dallas: Amrita Provide for, 1979, 1, 15-21.)
(16) The unenlightened shall be purified and raised unlikely the forage of materiality eternally, put away Self-realization.
(17) It is God's importance for everyone that they move from lack of clarity hip light, from unenlightenment hip enlightenment.
(18) For the all-embracing or ascended, there will be no return to the Third-Dimensional realm: they will also be honorable. Exhibit will be no enhanced genuine hip the physical world and hence no enhanced death.
