Chapter 20: Men, Women & Soulmates (Part 1)
Video (Chapter 20 pages 293-304):
Missing Pieces
Jon had been very lonely since he was a young boy, both in the sense of the world as a whole, and in the sense of missing a mate.
And Time Marches On
After some time at the monastery (and a crush thon Anastasia that did not work out), Jon was really wishing he had a woman in his life. But he was unattractive, in a "real sense", on the inside. He didn't have it together - so he certainly wasn't able to be together with someone else in a positive, helpful way. He wasn't serving God, or Unselfishly Loving, so he really didn't radiate any love or charisma. Most women want a man that is inwardly strong, and not "needy" of them. That goes even more so for higher consciousness women.
One day Jon asked his true teacher (enlightened) Zain, if he knew who Jon's soulmate was, or how he could find her. Zain's answer was an enlightening ego blow.
"Your questions are irrelevant. Because, what you imagine a soulmate to be, and what you think a soulmate relationship is, is not accurate."
"You can't have such a relationship... It cannot exist for you at this time in your life & consciousness."
"Until the Universal Spirit reigns on the throne of your will, such a relationship would be one of major conflict, not bliss."
"The hierarchy knows what is best - if you need a burr under your robe, karma will find a soulmate for you at this time in your consciousness. But it is most sublime when the coming together of soulmates is the outcome of spiritual development, and they are of higher consciousness."
Zain told Jon to let go of women for now & concentrate on finding God first.
"Then and only then - after you have become attached to the Universal One, and found inner & outer harmony, will those who should be with you in Oneness with Spirit, be with you in the beautiful harmony you are imagining."
Shortly after this conversation, a new female novice arrived at the monastery. Jon was smitten, her name was Venus & she looked like an angel. So he went to Zain & asked him to help pull some strings & set him up. As it turned out, his crush was to end up crushing his selfish separate self & it was one of his most painful experiences in his growth. Zain also gave Jon a list of ancient texts to read.
Ancient Texts:
As The Sun and The Planets,
Are We In True Form.
Lovers One, Yet Seeming Apart.
Elements of One Flow When In Our Right Way,
Separate and Opposite, When Lost Is The Way.
One Being With Multiple Parts,
Before Time On Earth.
Male and Females,
Lost on the Earth.
Outer Parts Lost First
Then To the Core
Reverse it We Must, In Reverse Order
*
The Female Elements of Each Soul-ar System,
Orbiting Like Planets on
The Outer Reaches of Us,
Were the First to Enter
The New Space of Earth.
Tempted and Allured, they Separated From
The Male Elements, and Reversed Polarity.
Becoming Like Male Elements,
Out of Balance.
The Male Elements Were the Next Exposed,
And Reversing Polarity,
They Became As Female Elements.
The Former Male elements
Now Reversed in Polarity,
Turned From The One,
All Were Out of Universal Harmony and Flow,
Planets No Longer Attracted to Suns
By Their Gravity,
And No Longer Orbiting The Suns.
Now Suns Chase The Planets
And Chaos Reigns In The World of Humans.
Now For the Return
The Order of The Fall Must Be Reversed
*
You Who Would Find Your Soulmates
Men, Seek Not Women
Seek God First
Then Accept The Women Who Come to You
With Unselfish Love
Women, Attempt Not, to Change a Man
Seek God First
And Find a Man Who
Is One With the One
A Man Who Sought God First
So Zain "helped" Jon get Venus by having them share the same living quarters & asking Venus to do things for Jon. She did it, but she didn't like it. It drove Jon nuts! She slept on a nearby mat every night, but she did not have any interest in him as a man.
Venus wound up being attracted to Jon's good friend & fellow musician at the monastery, Ulysses. And Jon could tell Ulysses liked her back. She even proposed to him.
Finally, one day, Jon could not take it any more! He grabbed his parka, walked out the back gate, and began wandering the mountains in extreme emotional distress. He wandered for 4 days before it hit him. He had to give up women & pull himself together - focusing only on God, becoming devoted to & serving God. As soon as he truly realized this, it all fell into place.
Jon was finally understanding women, before they were like aliens to him, but now he knew & understood that there is no way women can really be understood or appreciated by any man, until the man becomes enlightened (or at least partially enlightened). ONLY REAL UNSELFISH CARING MAKES THE REAL DIFFERENCE. AND A WOMAN WHO IS REALLY UNSELFISHLY LOVED, CAN BLOSSOM LIKE FIELDS OF FLOWERS IN A SPRING RAIN.
Jon realized women's place in the grand scheme of things, and the beauty of the "receptive principle" which they manifested. They were for giving to - not in the giving to their selfish separate self, or spoiling someone, but in the same sense that the Sun gives to the planets, and they create life. Like the Mother Earth, every thing that the Sun gives to her, she takes in, and gives birth to new creation.
Previously, Jon had never been treated very well by women. Now he realized why. He could love them without "wanting them", or being "needy" and "longing for them". He had now turned towards God for his nourishment.
Jon had let go of Venus, and she was now with her true love. Within a week he had 5 proposals. All of a sudden, he was attractive. All he had to do was Unselfishly Love, instead of want.
Zain then told Jon about the disintegration of male/female soulmate relationships in Atlantis.
And I Didn't Even Need a Library Card
The CLO's library in Tibet was extensive. Jon was able to read original manuscripts of the writings that eventually became the bible, along with the sacred texts of many other religions. Their biblical scrolls were complete, properly preserved & intact (originals & copies in various languages). There was far more in them, than in the modern bible.
For the seeker of the deepest level of truth within, it includes a "code" consisting of all kinds of symbology, including numerology. These original bible manuscripts included a numerological reference called the Kaballa, or Quaballah. Even just to use the numerology as an example, if you understood that the number 4 or 40, numerologically represents a total transformation - a crucifixion - a death and rebirth of some sort, a given story may mean something much different, or much deeper to you. Or that 3 represents a "whole" or "a body", it adds new meaning to the stories. The modern bible is missing its keys. The Kaballa alone was deliberately "deleted" around the 3rd century A.D. due to power plays, control of the masses, and/or someone wanting personal gain.
Thus, the Atlantean Children's interpretation & understanding of the meaning of the bible's stories maybe and usually are very different from anyone else's.
Adam and Eve - as Soulmates
In order to understand WHO our soulmates may or may not be, and HOW to find them, we first need to understand what a soulmate is, AND WHY we now find ourselves separate from our soulmates. the story of Adam & Eve, when looked at in a certain light, can help us understand this.
The newer ancient teachings say this story was a parable loosely based on the ancient Atlantean teachings, about the first Atlantean soulmate group to lose Universal consciousness. They say that they lost Universal consciousness because of selfishness that led to separating from the One. Atlantean texts don't conflict with the bible story, but it does add details & shed new light on it.
We all started as spiritual beings, that were not male or female. We were "both", in that we had both male & female "parts" inside ourselves. At some point, we came upon the Earth, and beheld the wonders of the physical plane. To exist on this plane though, we had to change from our "angelic" spiritual form, into a denser, physical form - in other words we needed physical bodies to fully interact with the physical plane. In the process of making this change, we discovered that we divided into male & female parts, and subsequently, male & female bodies. Enter the concept of Adam & Eve. Unfortunately, along with this change, came "self" consciousness, and worse "self"-ishness. THIS IS WHAT LED TO OUR SEPARATION FROM THE UNIVERSAL SPIRIT - i.e. what the bible calls eating of the forbidden fruit. This was not real fruit, not a real tree - the knowledge of good & evil meant the duality of the physical plane, rather than Oneness. And the biblical "original sin", was the selfish separation from God, which brought us into this duality - the action of eating the forbidden fruit, and karmic results - becoming entangled with, caught in, and "cursed with" the plane of duality - the physical plane on Earth- the plane of "the knowledge of good & evil".
Then the "hiding from God" was actually the separation, and "cut off" off from Universal consciousness we created ourselves.
And the being "kicked out of Eden" was our own subsequent pursuit of selfishness.
One of the most important things that we need to understand, is that losing touch with our "soulmates", or finding them, is not really the primary problem. It is our separation from God, and our selfishness, that CAUSED the subsequent separation with our soulmates. And dealing with those primary problems must be our primary focus, or we cannot have a good soulmate relationship, or a coming back together in Oneness with each other, or God.
No Blame
"Eve" has been blamed for the "fall", along with the tempting serpent. This created a scourge on women throughout the ages. But women should not be singled out for blame.
The better you understand what was said earlier (that our true form is both male & female soulmates who are really just aspects of a singular being), the better will your perception reveal to you the truth in the story... ANGELS are balanced, they contain both sexes in one being, in harmony.
To grasp the polarities of our human condition is difficult without Universal consciousness.
Keep in mind that the terms "positive" and "negative" which are used in the examples you are about to read, are meant in the sense of the nature of polar opposites, such as those found with electrical charges & the ends of a battery.
People often think of electricity as positive & negative charges. But actually, it is just one energy, and it flows through something as "one electrical flow", moving in one direction in a circle; it is only when you divide this flow by severing this flow, this circuit, separating the oneness of the flow somewhere, that you get the polarities - the polar opposite terminals of + and -. When severed, it is called "positive" on the side where electrons would be outflowing & "negative" on the other side where there is a receptive/ "vacuum" condition (an absence of electrons, and a condition of "wanting" or accepting electrons).
Our true natures can thus be likened to the elements of an atom - electrons which are negatively charged ([-] receptive/female principal) are attracted to, and in the orbit of, the nucleus which has positive charge ([+] outflowing/male principal) of an atom.
