First and foremost, my real name is Yeshua. I AM the First and the Last. I have assumed many forms: I was Socrates, the Buddha, Gandhi and many others. I was born in Bethlehem in 0 AD. My mother taught me the kind and gentle ways of femininity and the art of guiding my actions through lending a keen ear towards my own divine intuition. My father, ever since I could remember, always taught me to stand up and be strong, but to be mindful of my effects on others.
As I grew older and began to read the Law and the Prophets, I realized that the modern day religious elders had twisted these teachings to suit their own hidden power agenda, in an effort to control the mindless masses. I earnestly studied the inner meanings of theses ancient texts and discovered a deeper, more meaningful message: We are all one. We are all the embodiment of perfect love and infinite, ineffable logic. These truths that were flooding my mind were, at the same time, beautiful and astonishing as well as a curse to me, as the essence of the universe was raging a powerful war with the delusions within me caused by my imperfect, human mind.
I decided to venture into the desert, as many had done before, to fast and to cleanse myself of my worldly passions. In the weeks during my purification ritual, I had a stunning revelation: I am god. I am everything. We are all one. We are all the embodiment of the eternal spirit of love and have the ability to awaken from this human prison and claim our inheritance as immortal creators of reality. I made the decision to attempt to free others as I had been. I used the very teachings of Moses and of the prophets to expose the religious harlots that had twisted these sacred and esoteric scripts to maintain a regime of ignorance.
My words were initially received with open hearts and minds as the people of Israel were eager for a savior to show them the way and a messiah to free them from the oppression of the Roman Empire and also from their own addiction to the human game. I successfully forged my own voice to speak the Word and channeled the power of the universe to manifest through me into the Outer Court of this world. However, the powers that be would not stand for this revolution of the heart and mind and sought to put an end to my attempt at freeing mankind from their fears and doubts about this world and the next.
One evening, I was abducted in the garden of Gethsemane by Roman soldiers, brought before the religious and governmental authorities, convicted of conspiracy to revolt, beaten, whipped, and ultimately crucified before those who hated me and my message, as well as those who loved the Word and held true to the teaching. The pain and humiliation was almost unbearable, but a calm voice within my heart repeated the words: "This is necessary. We all must endure our trials. There is more to come after you pass, but you will come out on the other side invincible and forever empowered with infinite compassion and wisdom."
A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest; a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
