“Is This What You’re Looking for?” – Part 1/2
August 21, 2017 By Steve Beckow

I think the eclipse came a few days early for me.

I was given a spiritual experience a few days back and, ever since, I’ve been searching for a way to describe and discuss it.

You may also have an experience at this time of the Emerald Gateway, Harmonic Convergence, and Solar Eclipse. The Divine Mother predicts a mass heart opening in the near future. (1) If not, remember that the Gateway lasts until Aug. 27.

As with all spiritual experiences, it didn’t come with a name, a map of the territory, or a handbook.

And it just keeps unfolding with the passing days, although I also imagine it can wane.

Here’s the sense I’ve made of it after a few days of it unfolding.

I had a vision of a man so noble that I could only stand there in awe.

The vision happened directly after invoking Michael and the Divine Mother and the Universal Laws of Change, Transmutation, and Elimination to take away all impurities.

This is the third spiritual experience I’ve had after invoking the universal laws: (1) Abundance as a state of being, (2) Mastery as a state of being, and (3) this experience.

At first I gazed in wonder. The thought that humans could reach such a level woke me up. I was so buoyed up from the experience that I never inquired as to the identity of the man.

Then, hours later, I intuited – or someone put the idea in my head – that it was a higher-dimensional version of me. I have no idea whether it was my Oversoul or Universal Self. Let me just call it my “Higher Self.”

I decided to test out the idea that it was me. I tried it on and waited for my internal reaction.

Almost immediately a process began which I recognized. I’d been in it twice before. Upon recognizing bliss and peace, both engulfed me. Now that was happening here as well.

Upon trying on the notion that the man I saw in my vision was actually a higher-dimensional version of me, it and I began to merge.

How can I describe merging? Let me look for a metaphor that both of us can agree on. Here’s my metaphor, aimed at the experiential level. Remember that a metaphor only captures some of the similarities, not others.

Imagine a large piece of all-white blotting paper. Pristine and pure. Suddenly wet patches begin to show on it. Gradually wetness pervades the whole of the blotting paper.

I was that blotting paper and my Higher Self was the water. When I was soaked through and through, who was I? The “water” or the “blotting paper”? Or water-and-blotting-paper?

All I know is that, before the merging, there had been a subject and an object, me and the man in the vision. After recognizing it as my Higher Self and merging with it, as I did with bliss and peace, there was only a subject.

It feels as if the everyday man is the one that remains. I hear Michael saying that I need to keep my feet on the ground. And, for many reasons, I do.

To return to the vision, when I saw my Higher Self, I was awestruck. Our Higher Selves are magnificent. It’s just as Sanat, Jesus, and all the masters say: We truly are great masters on the higher planes. Oh, my gosh, I hope people can hear me.

Those aspects are us. We are One and connected. (2)

But words are just words. Perhaps feel into what I’m saying. Try it on. Test it out. See what your insides say.

You, on a higher dimension, are an absolutely awesome being. And that same beingness is you, right now, simply on a different dimension of existence.

Dimensions need not be barriers to experiencing our Oneness with our Higher Selves.

Ascension will surely mean reunion with our Higher Selves, whether temporary or permanent.

Connected to them, we’ll have removed a major impediment to the free flow of love.

This is the second time I’ve merged with my Higher Self. I’m glad I wrote it down because the details of that first merging are now lost to me.

(2) These are steps on the stairway to heaven: Knowing us in our everyday consciousness, in our higher-dimensional Selves, as our Atman/Christ Self beyond the dimensions, and as the Mother/Father God that we all are. Knowledge of each of these levels of existence is a step along the path home to the God from whom we came. This is the Divine Plan in its shortest form.

We merge upwards, so to speak. Or our Higher Selves descend. We go back home, having wandered in the world until we remembered who we are and where we came from.
