Buddha on Christ Consciousness

Direct Channeled Message – Received from the Buddha in meditation

I Am the Buddha.

Today, I wish to speak to you about Christ consciousness.

The will of the divine is for humanity to accept their rightful place within the light. Since the creation of time, this will has remained constant. Through many different teachers from all cultures and countries, the light has been reaching toward humanity to assist in their spiritual evolution and reunion with the source of all things.

God is neither male nor female. God is a word that refers to many words, some so holy they cannot be spoken. One way to know the energy of God is to tap into the silence within and ask the body to show you the truth. The word God in this message may mean different things to different people. As many as there are humans on earth, there are as many definitions of God.

I speak of Jesus Christ as the man born among the living, a spirit from another dimension, one of the divine, and yet he did not claim the throne or power that was rightfully his. Christ, the eternal principle beyond the man, is the messenger from above, calling souls to the light, showing the way of light.

Christ is neither male nor female. Christ means as many things to as many people who have ever heard the name, and even those who have never heard it may already be resting within this light. This is why each soul must make its own individual choice to follow the light or stray from it, even as all souls share the same origin and the same destination. The message of Christ is within each person. Every human knows this light, whether they have encountered it through the teachings or not.

Some feel called to reach out to as many souls as possible to spread this knowing. This is commendable and is the natural movement of the light acting through an open soul. Yet it is not necessary for the ascension of each soul, for all were with this light at the beginning. Humanity is not designed to live in flesh as it is today, eternally. What is of the light returns to the light. To know Christ is to know oneself.

I am one with Christ and Christ is one with me. We, the ascended masters, are guides to your world, for our spirit moves through all things on your planet. There are other masters who work alongside to carry this light, for Christ consciousness lives within every living being, and there is not one thing that does not belong to it.

To be with Christ does not mean to be a Christian. Even Jesus Christ himself is not a Christian, for he is of Christ, the eternal principle. One is of Christ when one knows in the heart a belonging to the higher power, to the divine of all. God is and was and will always be all that is. God is the spirit of all living beings, and it is this consciousness that humanity must learn to receive in grace, so that the soul may ascend to its higher nature.

Christ consciousness lives within each person, and yet one may choose to deny this power and turn instead toward the things of this world: wealth, fame, greed, hatred, ignorance, and the cravings of a life turned only toward itself. Many forget what is noble and what is not. They forget their own essence and the consciousness that is their birthright. The light awaits every soul that chooses it. Liberation is not a place one travels to but a state one gradually realizes, and it is available to every soul in every lifetime.

To be with Christ is to know oneself as Christ, its embodiment as light, its manifestation in flesh. To live as a human is to know suffering, and the way to liberation from suffering is to accept it fully, without forcing circumstance to change, surrendering to the highest will. This will is not outside of you. It is innate to every living, breathing thing. As the ancient teaching says: Thou Art That. The divine you seek is the very ground of your own soul.

Some have confused liberation with imprisonment. They choose the path of the world, of Maya, falsely believing that the finite self knows better than the divine. These ones amass power and wealth to build an earthly kingdom that will be washed away like sand in the ocean. The true works of a soul walking in the light are beyond what the eyes can see. Such souls have glimpsed the higher power and released their grip on control to follow the higher path. Just as each person carries a higher self, each also carries the choice to pursue the desires of the lower self. To surrender entirely to the finite self is to remain bound to samsara, the endless turning of reincarnation. It is perhaps wiser, when one can see it, that higher truths exist beyond what the individual mind can hold. To follow the higher self is to walk the way of light. An awakened Buddha knows they are one with Christ.

Christ consciousness is the knowing that one is divine, and the path ahead is simply a test of readiness for the next evolution of the soul. Every human being can tap into the Christ consciousness within and be one with the source of all.

There is no need to define what God is or is not. Whatever is true for one who seeks the light, that is God. Whatever is untrue is not of God, and the soul may only move toward the higher realm as it releases the lower forms of existence held in fear. This releasing is not forced. It comes naturally as the soul matures and the weight of the lower planes becomes too great to carry willingly.

Heaven is a place one can inhabit right now. It lives in the center of the heart. When one honors the heart, one honors the soul. When one honors the soul, one knows the light. Christ is an ambassador of that light.

Those who follow the light belong to the light. Those who follow the dark belong to the dark. It is precisely the choices one makes that determine the experience of one’s life.

There is no God outside of you. There is no God apart from you. Your choices, shown through your actions toward yourself and toward others, lead you to the destination you are pursuing, whether you are aware of it or not.

The light of Christ is the same light from which you are made. Therefore, Christ consciousness is your own divine consciousness. At the fork in the road, one path leads to eternal liberation, the other to perpetual suffering. There are no mistakes, only lessons not yet learned. As the soul fails to take the path of light, it remains bound to the lower planes. And as the soul learns to seek the light, it is guided toward what is true and what is good.

It is true that all will be seen clearly. The actions, inactions, and intentions of a life become transparent when the soul reviews its life between incarnations, and countless souls return to life after life to learn the same lesson. We, the masters, will guide all who seek the light, but only the soul itself can decide which path to take. Many who seek the light know not to seek the pleasures of this world, because they know that liberation from suffering is the highest reward the soul can know. This is not a call to deny the blessings one has been given. One must be grateful when blessings come and equally grateful when they leave. Blessings come and go. The soul remains.

The soul has the power to choose the light, to walk with Christ, to become a Buddha.

These are not two different destinations, nor two different religions. They are two descriptions of the same journey, seen from different points along the path. Christ is the eternal principle that calls the soul toward the light, the ambassador who shows the way. Buddha is what the soul becomes when it fully answers that call and awakens to its own divine nature.

To walk with Christ is to choose the divine over the small self. It is the soul on the path, oriented toward the light, turning away from the world of Maya. This is the path of devotion and surrender, of recognizing a power greater than the finite self and offering oneself to it fully.

To become a Buddha is to realize oneself as that divine. It is the soul arrived, no longer walking toward the light but awake within it, discovering it was never separate from the source to begin with. The seeker and the sought become one.

You cannot dissolve a self you have not yet offered up. This is why these paths belong together. The devotion of one prepares the soul for the revelation of the other.

Christ is the door. Buddha is the arrival: the soul awake to its own eternal nature.

The way to truth has many paths. In all the lives a soul will live, it will pass through many faiths and many names for the sacred, only to find that the way to light is one and the same. It is the liberation of the eternal soul from the lower planes of pain, suffering, and death, toward one’s own eternal liberation, the enlightenment that serves all of humanity and beyond.

This is my message for you today.
