A
message from Hercules
NOTE: This message was delivered on May 26,
2006 during the Shangra-la Ascension Conference.
I come with the Flame of the Will of God, which
is truly the flame of supreme joy. For how can
there be true joy that is separated from the
Will of God, when it is the Will of God that
all of his children should inherit his kingdom,
when indeed it is God's good pleasure to give
you the fullness of his kingdom.
And thus, what does it take to inherit the kingdom
of God but that one act of surrender of the
separate will that sees itself as apart from
God. Whereby you align your being with the Will
of God, and that is the opening that allows
God to give you the Kingdom, which you have
been rejecting for many a lifetime. Some people
on Earth [have rejected it] for eons, for they
come from other systems of worlds where they
long ago made the decision to turn away from
God.
So my beloved, I come to share with you the
fact that there is great joy, great rejoicing,
among the Ascended Host for the experience that
you have had this afternoon. For whether you
realize this or not, you have attained something
today that is unprecedented in the history of
Ascended Master organizations. And I do not
say this to tickle your egos and cause pride.
I say it to cause you the realistic sense that
you have crossed a barrier, crossed a threshold,
where you have now received a teaching that
has never before been given in such clarity
and in such direct relation to your everyday
lives.
And this is not just because you have received
this from Above but because all of you here
have contributed to bringing forth this teaching.*
For unless you had been willing to come together
in one physical place, and to be of one accord
in your desire to truly understand what it takes
to go beyond the ego—well my beloved,
had that willingness not been there, how could
the teaching have been released? There would
have been no chalice to receive it, and thus
had we released it, we would have cast our pearls
before swine, which we have long ago learned
not to do, for it benefits no one.
Thus, as the Elohim of the First Ray, the Elohim
of the Will of God, I truly want to share with
you the joy it is for me, and all those who
work on the Will of God, to see hearts united
in willingness to come into Oneness with each
other, Oneness with the Will of God. For my
beloved, were you not all One in this experience?
Was anyone above anyone else? Was anyone excluded?
All were welcomed. All were sharing. And all
made a contribution—even if you were silent,
your heart made a contribution. This, my beloved,
is the Oneness that is the Will of God, the
Oneness of all life, the Oneness between Man
and God, because humans realize that they are
God in manifestation.
And thus, you realize that when you give up
the separate will of the ego, you do not lose
your will, your ability to make choices, as
the ego and the prince of this world would have
you believe. The Will of God is not a straightjacket,
where you can only do what some outside will
imposes upon you. No, my beloved, for the Will
of God is indeed the will of your own higher
Being. And when you recognize that as the reality
of your life, then you recognize that the Will
of God is not an external will.
Why many spiritual people experience difficulties
in life
And that is when you can follow the greater
outline, the greater vision, of your divine
plan out of pure love. Because you realize that
it is not some external deity, some angry being
in the sky, who is imposing that will upon you.
It is indeed your own choices made when you
were not involved with the situation you are
facing in this physical body.
And thus, I must tell you, my beloved, that
many of the challenges you face in life as spiritual
seekers are not necessarily caused by your karma
or even by world karma. They are caused by the
fact that before you came into this lifetime,
you made the choice that you wanted to come
into Oneness with the greater Being that you
are while still in embodiment. You wanted to
make that your divine plan, and you wanted to
fulfill that divine plan. And thus, my beloved,
you looked down upon the Earth and you made
a realistic assessment of how easy it is –
once you are in a physical body – to be
overwhelmed by the many pressures of this world,
so that you forget your divine plan, the greater
vow you took before you came here.
And thus, you said to your spiritual teachers,
"Do not allow me to remain asleep. Do whatever
it takes to wake me up. So when I go in the
wrong direction, put a barrier in front of me
that obstructs that path, so I can no longer
go in that direction. And then if I start going
in another direction, put a barrier in front
of me again, until I finally come back to the
center of Being and give up that lesser will
that springs from the ego and even is imposed
upon me as I grow up in a world that is so far
from the will of God. When I go down the wrong
path, stop me! Do whatever it takes. The harder
I insist on keeping going down that path, the
harder I want you to block me so that I do not
continue to go down that path, but eventually
wake up and realize that I am here for a greater
purpose, that I chose before I came into the
dense conditions I face in this dense physical
body and in the situations I face with the people
that I came to help."
Do you see my beloved? So many things in your
lives are conditions that you have wanted as
a way to prevent you from going down the wrong
path. And when you see it that way, you can
stop focusing on that condition. You can stop
seeing it as something that is imposed upon
you, either by karma, by some unjust coincidence,
by fate or by an angry God. You can see it as
something that is actually meant to liberate
your soul, your Being, to fulfill your reason
for Being.
And thus, you can change your outlook on difficulties,
and you can realize that they are a potential
for stepping back, for re-evaluating your life.
As was so beautifully described a few minutes
ago,** that a severe illness can be a wake-up
call, where you realize, "I am going down
the wrong path. I need to step back and re-think
my life and reconnect to my own higher Being
and that greater Will of my own Being."
Re-evaluate your life and forgive all
So my beloved, with this in mind, you should
be able to look at your life and the difficulties
you have faced and come to that sense of inner
peace that allows you to let go of the hurt,
the wounds, the sense of injustice, any anger
or resentment for having gone through these
difficult experiences. And you stop focusing
on the past, you stop focusing on the problems.
Instead, you reach up and reconnect with your
own higher Being and say, "Ah! The obstacle
was only to prevent me from going down the wrong
path. And now I see the right path, and I have
no more time to worry about that past obstacles
for I have such a love for fulfilling my right
path that I have no attention left for anything
else." And that is when you reconnect to
the peace and joy that we desire you to have.
Surely, we do not desire you to have an awakening
by going through a crisis or facing a terminal
illness. We would rather have you, as was also
described, come to that realization during your
daily life because you finally decided to think
outside the box, to use the conscious self's
ability to project itself outside of its current
mental prison. And thereby, you saw your life
with the same greater perspective you had before
you came into embodiment. And now you can reconnect
to why you came into embodiment in particular
conditions and situations and why you are here,
what is your divine plan.
As was said, when you stop wanting to do it
the human way, that is when you can discover
your divine plan—and do it, not God's
way in the sense of the external God but God's
way in the sense of God the I AM THAT I AM within
you, that is your own higher Being, that is
YOU. This is the illusion you need to overcome—that
you are separated from God, that you are different
from God, that you could not possibly be a son
or daughter of God. Because of all these conditions
on Earth that you have been brought up to think
are real, unavoidable, permanent or maybe even
the Will of God—as some indeed believe
that God created them as sinners, or God created
them as homosexuals, or as any other limiting
condition that people have come to see as permanent.
Yet nothing in the material universe is permanent!
For it is the Will of God that everything should
transcend itself in an infinite spiral that
has no limits, except the limits that you might
impose upon it by thinking, "I could not
possibly be that." But did not Jesus say,
“With men this is impossible, but with
God all things are possible?” And so when
you realize that you are One with God, that
God is within you, that the Kingdom of God is
within you, you realize there is no limitation,
there is nothing that is impossible, when you
are willing to be a co-creator with your God.
My beloved, rejoice in the accomplishment of
reaching this state of realization of what the
spiritual path is about. Take it, run with it,
integrate it, do not allow yourself to forget
it. Do whatever you can to internalize it, to
reach up for that divine plan. Look at all the
things that prevent you from surrendering to
the greater Being that you are. And when you
see them, then follow them, go after them. Make
them visible so you can see how unreal they
are and how they are not your real choices.
They are only the choices of the lower will
of the ego.
My beloved, I love the Will of God. And I love
to see those on Earth who come to realize that
the Will of God is their own higher will. Thus,
be sealed in my love for the Will of God. Invite
me to help you keep true to that love, which
you also have in your own higher Being. Ask
me to help you overcome all resistance and all
lies, all wrong concepts of the Will of God
and your relationship to God. Ask me to help
you overcome all the graven images. Ask me to
help you give up the ghosts of your limited,
mortal separate sense of identity and will.
Thus, I seal you in the joy, the supreme joy
of the Will of God.
It is Done.
* The participants
had a long discussion (several hours) on the
topic of death, including the death of the ego.
** After the discussion on death, one of the
participants gave a moving description of his
victory over AIDS and cancer.
