The Five Steps to Spirituality – Part 2

This is William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council’s, second step of the Five Steps to Spirituality.

The Council: If you take these five steps and apply them to your life, much spiritual growth can be accomplished.  In fact, one can accomplish a degree of spirituality that most have only dreamed of.

The second step is: Never own anything.  This does not mean that you cannot buy a new home or a new car or new clothing or jewelry or what have you.  This is meant in the sense of possessing these things.  You may not look upon these things as "This is mine."  All the goods of the material manifestation, all the riches of the world, belong to the Divine Source and are only loaned to you for your use and your spiritual growth.  This does not mean that those who have much must sell these things off or rid themselves of them.  You have a right to have these things.  You must remember that you are to use these things in your spiritual growth that they are only on loan to you and that they truly belong to the Divine Source.  If you realize that you do not own these things, you can be more at peace with yourself because you will have no need to worry about losing them since they belong to someone else.  You must turn over all that you think you own, such as property, cars, home, furniture, turn them over to the Infinite Father.  Remember, they are only yours to use.  He is loaning them to you.

Have you ever noticed some people who are very possessive of their material things?  An example:  A woman may own a very beautiful figurine or statue.  She adores this and thinks it is very precious, and then a day comes by, and someone accidentally knocks the figurine or statue over and breaks it.  Upon this, the woman looks at the shattered pieces and feels so disheartened.  Her sadness and resentment make her unhappy.  She is the type of woman who could very easily lose five years of her life over fretting at the loss of something that never belonged to her; yet she chose to possess it; she thought that it was hers.  Now, we have just said that the lady could very well lose five years of her life over such a thing.  We did not mean this literally.  It is our way of saying that such a woman could very easily become so upset and irritated that onlookers could very well assume that this broken figurine represented five years taken from her life.  Remember, all the materials, beauty and wealth and conveniences of the world are yours to have, to use.  They are not yours to own but to have and use.  Never own anything and that way nothing can ever be taken from you.  All those things that you have, give over to your Divine Source.  Realize that they are on loan to you and you will never have to fear losing them.  With this attitude they will keep them more securely in your possession, than if you try to own them yourself.

The Five Steps to Spirituality – Part 1

 The Five Steps to Spirituality – Part 1

 What we are about to present, are William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council’s, Five Steps to Spirituality. This information was given as a complete set at one trance session. The entire trance session is presented in six parts. We begin with The Council’s opening statement about the five steps and proceed to the first step.

The Council:  May the Peace and the Joy of the Infinite Father be upon you, and May his Light shine down upon you and around you and within you.

What we are about to give you are 5 Steps to Spirituality.  If you take these five steps and apply them to your life, much spiritual growth can be accomplished.  In fact, one can accomplish a degree of spirituality that most have only dreamed of.  What we will give you will be the five steps and a few basic guidelines to each step.  These guidelines can help you expand these steps even further.  If one makes a commitment to apply these five steps in their everyday life, we can guarantee that you will grow spiritually much more than you have ever dreamed.  We can guarantee that you will truly become a new and whole being.  You will be much closer to your Divine Source than you have ever dreamed possible.

The first step is the most important and is the one that takes a great deal of honesty with oneself.  One must deal with this first step as honestly as is humanly possible for all others build on this first step.

The first step is: What emotions or attitudes or thoughts are now presently separating me from my Divine Source?  Or what emotions, thoughts, or attitudes are not within the Divine Will?

When reviewing one's self, consider such things as jealousy. Are you a jealous person or are you jealous of other people?  Are you jealous of what others have?

Self-pity is another point to consider.  Do you feel as though you are not appreciated?  Do you feel that you are some undiscovered flower in an oasis in the middle of a desert that mankind has not yet been blessed to see and smell your sweet scent? This is self-pity.  Are you resentful?  Do you find yourself in a state of sputtering indignation most of the time?  Do you find that people do not appreciate you or feel that you are not appreciated, and does this bother you?  Do you feel that you should be appreciated more than what you are?

Temper.  Do you have an uncontrolled temper?  Does your temper lead you to spiteful activities or actions against others? Remember, if you do not get rid of your temper, then your temper will get rid of much of your spirituality and certainly all of your joy. These are just a few points that you may look at, but there are many others that one must consider.  What you are to do, as you look over these points, as you review yourself, you must be willing to admit to yourself that these truly are not godly activities or spiritual activities or activities that are within the Divine Will. Be honest with yourself.  Do not try to rationalize those things that you know about yourself.  Admit to yourself that these are acts of separation, that these are stumbling blocks between you and the return to your Divine Source and your rightful place within the Presence of your God.

The Essence of Spirituality, not just for Christians - An Inspiring Message from William LePar

 This important writing comes from William LePar interpretation of the Book of John Part 1 Chapter 1:12-13. What follows can be of great value to all.

So if you are a Gentile or Christian, you are in that particular expression or experience not by accident but because God has seen to it that you are there for a specific reason. For those with the belief system of the evolution of the soul, then you have gained the right to this easier evolvement towards your God or your at-one-ment. Those in the conventional belief system are reborn to the grace of Jesus Christ, to the grace of God. Anybody who is in the Western culture is not here by accident. You are here because of a direct intervention of God. Now you can say it is because you justly deserve that or because God for some reason feels you can handle the situation. That may not seem like much of a secret, but if you really grasp what I am saying, and that is about as far as I am going to go, if you really grasp what I am telling you, you will realize that it is something that has been overlooked too long. If you can accept that and the responsibilities that go with it, you have just begun to work, but the rewards will be well worth it because you will be able to leave this expression without any obligations whatsoever. You can reach that state of at-one-ment that is necessary. That was the true purpose of the New Covenant to eliminate the useless rules and regulations that were necessary under the Old Covenant to reach the at-one-ment. Again, if you are in a Western culture, this can be your last time around by living a Christ-like life, and that life means that you then become responsible not only for yourself but for everyone you come in contact with. You become a teacher as well as a student. You become in this expression a master in your own right, and as a master, the job or the duty of a master is not to sit around and collect bravos, but to be a servant, to teach others, to help others. That is a true master. The true master comes to serve, and if he is a master, then the only people he can serve are those that are under him so there is your principle of brotherly love. It is your duty to take care of your brother. If he is not in the same level as you are, it is your duty as a Christian or as a master to help him attain at least that level that you are at. You are not to wait around until he comes knocking on your door. 

Mary the Mother of Jesus – Her Death

According to historians, Mary’s last days were spent in Ephesus, but no remains have ever been found. William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council, explains why. 

 Questioner:  Did Mary die a physical death?

 The Council: No, how could she?

 Questioner:  Well, I don't know.

 The Council:  A clarification on that.  She did die, but she also ascended. There are no physical remains.  You see, what you must take into consideration with the Blessed Mother is that she was born without sin.  The Bible states that she was born without original sin, which means she did not succumb to the temptations of the adversaries, so that she had no purpose or she had no, shall we say, commitment to enter the physical.  She had no need to enter the physical other than that of service to her Father, to God.  Although she is considered the Mother of God and the Queen of Heaven, you have to consider a dual role for the Mother of God and, that is, she is also a son of the Godhead, yet a Mother to the Godhead.  It becomes extremely involved.  One may attempt to explain the situation this way.  There is more to come as far as your understanding of heaven goes and all that lies within.  It is recognized now that you have God the Father and God the Son.  Very well.  God the Father in His own Being is androgynous, but just as you have God the Father, you must also have a God the Mother, which Mary fulfills then.  So although both are androgynous, one is subservient to the other, in that the feminine, that one recognized as Mary would be subservient to God the Father. It becomes extremely involved and complicated.  The Queen of Heaven is not equal to the Father of Heaven.  

Editor's note: Some of us have visited the site where her home was supposed to be. The story that we were told was that she was buried in a cave a short distance from her house but when people visited the cave later, there was no body, only lilies around the place where she was laid.

The Virgin Mary

 With the Lenten Season upon us, we thought that this would be a good time to present this dialogue to you. As the questioner mentions, many of us wondered why Mary had to remain a virgin. Here, the Council, William LePar’s tells us.

 Questioner:  I would like to ask a question, and I am sure that there are others who would ask the same question because we have so little knowledge of Mary.  Why was it necessary that she remain a virgin after the birth of Jesus?

The Council:  That can be quite an involved answer.  To put it as simply as is possible, there is a certain dignity brought to the material through the birth of Jesus Christ.  In other words, as God takes a humanly form, then this gives a dignity to humanity, to human life, that had not been there before.  Mary, the Mother of Heaven, the Pearl of God, is not, shall we say, an entity or a soul such as us or you; in other words, she did not fall from the Graces of the Divine; she did not accept the challenge as we have and as you have.  Do you understand?

Questioner:  Yes, I do.

 The Council:  Consequently, then her making entrance into the material was a total giving up of herself for the Divine Will of God.  Shall we say, an unnecessary acceptance of a crudeness or a density.  Even in this, because of her godliness and her love for her Maker, she would bring a glorification to that physical body that made it such that to produce flesh from that body would not be possible.  It becomes a very involved situation in explaining the purpose of creation.  One must also take into account the fact that reproduction as man now knows it, co-creating with God as man now knows it, was never intended to be such, but a soul or an entity or a being can create within themselves when in perfect balance, and in the birth of Jesus Christ through Mary, then that soul took the feminine aspect while the Divine Spirit took the male aspect and created then a physical body for the Lord Jesus Christ.  Now, the soul or the being that created the physical body of Mary was and is perfected.  There was no need for that soul to enter a physical manifestation and since that soul could create in cooperation with Divine Spirit, the Divine, the Godhead, then it could not be contaminated by the physical creation or cycle of creation.  Do you understand that?

 Questioner:  Yes.

The Council:  Now this is not to degrade a husband and wife creating or procreating.  This is an honor and a privilege that has been given to you.  This is your way of manifesting and creating like gods, but it is, shall we say, a very small degree of creation, where the soul Mary did not deserve the physical body because of her perfection and did not need a physical body and did not need another soul to create with in order to make a combined action.  Do you understand this?

This is all tied in with the masculine and feminine aspects and the creations as we have talked before.  So you have a perfected soul then co-creating as you do but instead of with a, shall we say, imperfect soul, Mary co-created with The Perfected Soul or The Perfected Being and that is God.  In so doing then she could not touch physical creation.  Now to answer why she could not touch physical creation can become extremely involved and would end up in more confusion.

Prayers are Energy

 Prayers are Energy

 This is a beautiful thought from William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council.

 Questioner:  Prayers are energies, then?

 The Council:  That should be no surprise.  Everything is energy; everything

is energy.

 Questioner:  And prayers would be so filled with love energy?

 The Council:  Yes.  Very positive, very positive thing, prayer.

 Questioner:  I don't understand how that would work, how that could be such an aid, help?

 The Council:  Well, if you could understand what the existence is at this level, then it would not be hard at all, but just think of it as a ball of total love, positive, of God, of all the beautiful things, all the holy things; and as that ball hovers over you, you have the option to accept it and put it into your heart, and it helps you shine out.  It enters your body or your system or your soul or your spirit and radiates outward.  It acts as an amplifier when your, shall we say, batteries are down a little.  It brings new life, new hope, into you, new strength. It clears out the old fog and allows the Divine to speak with you; but since it is a part of your soul, since it is a part of God, you must remember that when you reach a level of being able to pray for others out of love, God is talking to you and He is using you as an instrument, He is flowing His energies through you into that prayer; and you are directing it to a specific person or a specific thing; and if those things or persons do not wish to accept it, then it goes to someone else who is needy; and it will go until it is accepted.  None of God's efforts are in vain.

Spirit of a Baby at Time of Conception

 In the answer to the question below, William LePar’s spiritual source, The Council gives us some reasons why the entity might not be present at the time of conception.

 Questioner:  You said earlier that it is entirely possible that the soul or spirit may be with the entity from the time of conception on.  Why would a spirit not be with it from the time of conception?  Or why would it come into the physical organism at a later date than conception?

 The Council:  There are a number of reasons why.  One reason is or could be depending on the situation, the entity that is, shall we say, overlooking the situation may not be sure that the lessons necessary for its growth will be there in that situation.  The mother and father may not have, shall we say, set firm conditions that that baby will eventually grow into or develop under, so you see there is the factor of free will there that must be considered in all three individuals, the father, the mother, and the prospective child.  In many cases and possibly we should add here in most cases, the conditions are set; the parents on a spiritual level have already firmed or committed themselves to those conditions necessary for that particular entity's growth.  In that case then the soul or spirit would immediately enter on the moment of conception.  Now, another factor you can take into consideration as a possibility in that is this: that a soul may occupy that embryo or that fetus for some time and then may decide for one reason or another to, shall we say, switch horses in mid-stream.  In that case then, there would be the opening for another entity to take that position over.
