Opening the Divine Portal


Opening the divine portal, that is, becoming conscious of your Creator status while in an incarnate state, does not make you good. That might come as a shock because if the divine source is all good and all pure, how can it not therefore transform everything that it pours itself into, into something similarly all good and all pure? The other side of the opening sentence is that opening the divine portal in an incarnate state does not make you bad.

The divine source has an experiential focus in reference to all that is. Everything or anyone that opens itself to the experiential impetus of the divine source is a candidate for the fulfilling of that experiential focus.

What this basically means is that the direction of experiential expression emanates from the individual that has opened the divine portal and has given the divine source access to the self. These attributes can be either, to use the colloquial terms, good or bad. In other words, the facets that emanate from conscious access to the divine source can be directed into negative forms of expression or positive forms of expression. This is of great significance because the potentials that emanate from the opening of the divine portal can be a cause for incredible harm or incredible good.

This is an important distinction to understand and to get hold of because the experiential forms of existence that follow our present third dimension consciousness expression are essentially concerned with refining either the negative orientation of divine self-expression or the positive orientation of divine self-expression.

YOU have to decide which orientation the divine source is going to experience as a result of the opening up of access to your self. The form and direction of experience has to come from you. Even though it’s not always clear what’s what, there has to be some clarity in terms of whether your orientation is geared towards the good and well-being of others (positive), or whether it is geared towards the good and well-being of the self to the detriment of others (negative). Our present locus within the third dimension is essentially concerned with arriving at a clear awareness of the chosen orientation that the divine source is going to experience, and consequently express itself as, as it begins to clothe itself into your life and expressed existence. The divine source is not going to make this choice for you although there are certain salient features that provide hints as to the resonant nature of the divine source, namely, all that is.

You have to live your chosen orientation, in other words, you have to become your orientation. This is not an intellectual exercise but a lived life path. There is a certain intensity required in order to catalyze the chosen orientation to the level of depth required to make this a lived experience, just as there is a certain level of intensity required in order to open the portal to the divine source within the incarnated state. The two approaches are related.
