    Best quote from Jesus and the Path of Christ Consciousness: Mystical Teachings

    “

    Jesus didn’t come to start a religion that worships him as an idol; he came to be an example of a specific state of consciousness—what some call 'Christ consciousness'—that we are actually supposed to achieve ourselves.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Christ consciousness refers to a specific state of consciousness that Jesus of Nazareth exemplified during his life. Rather than being a historical figure meant for idol worship, Jesus serves as a living example of this state, which individuals are encouraged to achieve themselves. This perspective shifts the focus from traditional religious structures to a personal, inner relationship and a path of spiritual evolution that mirrors the master's own journey.

    While mainstream history often suggests that Jesus's influence ended two thousand years ago, mystical teachings propose that his signal never actually stopped. Instead of viewing him as a distant historical figure, these teachings present him as an active 'ascended master' who continues to teach today. This dynamic approach moves past traditional Sunday school versions to emphasize a living, ongoing connection with the divine rather than a static historical narrative.

    Viewing Jesus as an ascended master implies that he is more than just a statue in a cathedral or a figure from the past; he is a dynamic presence still involved in the human conversation. This concept suggests that he moved to a different frequency to continue his work, guiding others toward their own spiritual evolution. It emphasizes that his primary mission was to show humanity how to reach a higher state of being through a direct, internal connection.
