Soul/es

Dios es un Espíritu y el alma es el potencial viviente de Dios. La petición que el alma hizo de libre albedrío y su separación de Dios tuvo como consecuencia el descenso de ese potencial al estado inferior de la carne. Sembrada en deshonor, el alma está destinada a ser elevada con honor a la plenitud de ese estado divino que es el Espíritu único de toda la Vida. El alma puede perderse; el Espíritu no puede morir.

El alma permanece como un potencial caído, debe ser imbuida de la realidad del Espíritu, purificada por medio de la oración y la súplica, y devuelta a la gloria de la cual descendió, y a la unidad del Todo. Esta reunión del alma con el Espíritu es el matrimonio alquímico que determina el destino del ser y lo hace uno con la Verdad inmortal. Cuando este ritual se completa, entroniza al Ser superior en tanto se admite que el Señor de la Vida y el potencial de Dios, realizado en el hombre, es el Todo en todo.

El maestro Morya describe el origen del alma:

Let us ... see what portion of the Infinite One has been realized in the immediate forcefield of that which you call your self. The seed of this self, of course, had to come forth from the Great God Self, for there is no other source from whence it could come. Cycling through the spheres of the great Monad of Life, the seed of self-awareness gathers skeins of light—thread by thread, wound and woven, woven and wound about the point of awareness, building an energy field. And the seed becomes a soul born out of Spirit’s own union with life. And the soul is a miniature sun revolving about the central sun of Universal Being....

The sphere of God-being is a whirling atom that is called the Alpha-to-Omega. Out of the whirling of the polarity of the I AM THAT I AM, the seed of the soul is born. And as it moves through the cycles of the Monad, it forms a new polarity with the center. And the electron of selfhood, a new selfhood, is born....

As God multiplied himself over and over again in the I AM Presence (the individualized spark of being), the seeds that became souls—the souls that were thrust from the planes of Spirit—became living souls in the planes of Matter ... the emergent souls gathered skeins of Matter to form the vehicles of selfhood in time and space—the mind, the memory, the emotions tethered to the physical form. Thus veiled in flesh and blood, the soul was equipped to navigate in time and space.

The dwelling place of the soul is the seat-of-the-soul chakra. This chakra is located midpoint between the base-of-the-spine chakra and the solar-plexus chakra, which is located at the navel. The soul is called by God to mount the spiral staircase from the seat-of-the-soul chakra to the secret chamber of the heart, where she meets her beloved Holy Christ Self.

The ascended masters have referred to the soul as the child who lives inside of us. Psychologists have dubbed the soul “the inner child.” The soul by any other name is still the soul. And we are her parents and teachers, even as we are her students.
