"This is Body, and I wish to
acknowledge and thank Grandfather for his Light here
with me. Welcome to lesson four of the healing
class. As in Truth and
Reality Class, I will be using both the first
and third persons in referring to myself, Body. And
we'll also be using both the singular and plural
pronouns in referring to Body. Before we begin the
healing class on Body, I'd like to share some new
understandings about the Universal Feminine we call
Will, the fundamental essence of Body.
"Manifestation is rooted in duality,
so of course there are two kinds of everything here,
including Will. Even though the magnetic, Universal
Feminine essence is primal and ultimately unified,
the Mother of all Creation—not all of her essence is
really 'free.' Most Will is trapped.
"Only some of the magnetic Will
essence is free to spontaneously move and create
according to her desires because many of the best
and most important parts of her essence have become
trapped. Will becomes trapped when she opens to
spirit that has an agenda other than to love and
support the desires inherent in the Will. Light that
insists the Will manifest something he chooses is
unloving to the degree it differs from the Will's
own desires, the real Will of Creation.
"Of the 'trapped' Will also, there
are two types. One type is 'present' and known, the
other is 'lost' and therefore unknown. Lost Will is
trapped Will that has moved so far away from free
Will and the loving Light that sustains her
existence, that she can no longer magnetize herself
back to the rest of Will. All trapped Will suffers,
however lost Will has been hopelessly isolated and
alone, and is deeply suffering.
"Will is magnetic, and actively draws
to herself more of what is like her. Free Will draws
more free Will to herself, and trapped Will draws
more of the same to herself. These two types of Will
have long been at odds with each other.
"Free Will has hated the pain,
desolation and drudgery that has been the constant
experience of trapped Will, and has sought freedom
from this by distancing herself as much as possible
from any Will that is trapped. The trapped Will has
hated that free Will has gone off in search of more
freedom, and so readily abandoned her, leaving the
trapped Will to the mercy of the denied spirit that
has been using her to manifest as he desires.
"Spirit is drawn to all Will, but
Spirit has not been unified either. Spirit has
already discussed his
denials here. The most parental part of
Spirit, the part called 'God' had fragmented into a
cool, distant, observing and judging spirit known as
Ahriman, and into a
rebellious, hurtful and mean spirit known as Lucifer.
"At one point not long ago there was
very little of the core, loving parental part of
Spirit left in this Creation; he had denied nearly
all of himself as either Ahriman or Lucifer. It's
important to realize that only this central, core
part of Spirit is capable of being truly loving to
Will or Body. This is the part of your spirit that
is aligned with the stream of grace emanating from
Grandfather's original love.
"Only the parts of Spirit that have
aligned with Grandfather, and therefore with
Spirit's original connection with Will in Original Heart, are
capable of being truly loving to the Universal
Feminine, the Will of Creation. Only unconditionally
loving Light can be helpful in freeing trapped Will.
Since unloving, 'denied light' has trapped the Will,
it of course cannot be used to free her."
Free Will
"Free Will also has two types. One
way of expressing these types could be 'escaping'
Will and 'parental' Will. Over the eons, most free
Will has escaped being trapped with the rest of
Will. Most Will essence that has broken 'free' of
the main body of universal Will has done so by
aligning with whatever light it could. Escaping Will
has sometimes been called 'nonparental' or
'Daughter' in contrast to 'parental'
Will or 'Mother.'
"Unlike nonparental free Will, parental Will is
committed to helping trapped Will become free as
well. The first of the Mother's three parental
desires is the end of suffering. Most of the Will
essence in this Creation has been suffering,
beginning with lost Will, the most plentiful and
deeply suffering. The next most abundant is the rest
of the trapped Will, and then escaping Free Will.
And yes, truly parental Will has been the least
abundant.
"The issue of trapped Will is very
important to Body, because most of our Will is
trapped. However, most of our trapped Will is still
present and not yet lost, as long as there is life.
Manifesting life is the fundamental principle of
Body. Once life is assured, the freedom to manifest
as desired comes next, including the reality of
eternal life.
"Freedom, or free Will has been in
short supply here in manifestation, and has become
more scarce as the power-over tactics of denied
spirit in alignment with escaping Will have left
more and more trapped Will behind. Reversing this
trend is necessary if the healing work is to
succeed. The way this can happen most quickly and
easily is for free Will to choose to move from
escaping mode to parenting mode.
"The essence of freedom is choice,
and if true freedom for all Will is to be a reality,
then more Will that is already free will choose to
help free the Will that is still trapped. This
principle seems simple and easy in theory, however
it has not been so easy in practice.
"Will's nature is to be free and true
to herself. In practice, Free Will that is true to
herself is Will that must above all avoid becoming
trapped. And 'going to the rescue' of trapped Will
has too often been a way of becoming trapped. There
is great terror here, and Body has had to bear the
brunt of it."
Trapped Will
"Spirit has already pointed out that
Body, all of manifestation—is a combination of Spirit and
Will essence, and mostly Will essence.
Whenever Will engages with Spirit to create
something, she commits a part of herself to uphold
that manifestation. The part of the Will that unites
with Spirit in manifesting is committed to
maintaining that manifestation in existence. This
part of the Will is not able to choose another
manifestation until she becomes free from what she
is already manifesting.
"This in itself is not a problem, but
rather a fact of manifestation. What is a problem,
however, is when Will loses the ability to choose
again. If she is to be truly free, she must be free
to refrain from manifesting what she does not
desire, and even to unmanifest what she does not
desire.
"This is not presently the case,
because there is so very little Will essence that is
not already trapped in manifesting creations that
she does not desire. Manifesting creations is not
the only way Will can become trapped, but it is the
most serious because of how much Will is trapped in
unwanted creations from which she is unable to free
herself.
"Another serious way that Will gets
trapped is by guilt... which often says that it is
more loving to do something you do not want to, or
to not do something you want to. But it is not
loving if it is not your free Will choice, without
guilt.
"Another place where Will can easily
be trapped is in the act of planning. Free Will
decides to do something, be somewhere or with
someone at a future time. This often works out fine,
and fun is had in both the planning of the
experience and in the experience itself.
"And yet the event is often not
enjoyed because the trapped Will that must manifest
this event is not the same Will that planned it, and
does not really wish for it to happen, or prefers
another time, or a different event for this time.
Too often the Spirit-polarized free Will of planning
has chosen to enjoy her freedom to plan at the
expense of the Mother-polarized Will that has been
trapped into manifesting it.
"This principle applies to any
activity that imposes one Will upon another, in any
way. Will is very magnetic and has a tendency to
come back upon herself, and this tendency has been
ruthlessly exploited by escaping free Will in
alignment with Spirit, who until very recently had
been encouraging that escape.
"Thanks to Grandfather's intercession
with the Spirit of this Creation on behalf of the
Mother and Body, that encouragement to escape has
now ceased on the part of loving, parental Spirit,
God—but of course is still going on with his ancient
denials, Ahriman and Lucifer."
Right Leadership
"Body has existence on many levels,
and each level has its own understandings and
'rules' that apply at that level. The layers of
human Body relevant to this discussion are (from the
top down), spirit body, mental body, energy body,
physical body, and will body.
"All of these layers of Body of
course have some Spirit essence and some Will
essence. The upper two, the spirit and mental
bodies, have more Spirit essence; the lower bodies
have more Will essence.
"A simple expression of these layers
is Spirit, Body and Will. Notice the location of
Will in this hierarchy, on the bottom. Doesn't this
seem strange when you consider the importance of
free Will in the general scheme of things?
"Yet the simple truth has been that
Will, the true creator and sustainer of
manifestation has not been free to manifest as she
chooses. She has not been allowed to be parental in
her own right. She's been trapped into manifesting
what Spirit has determined worthy of manifestation.
"Prior to manifestation this was not
a problem; in Original Heart, Spirit and Will were
as one. Will's desires were Spirit's delight, and
Spirit's delights were Will's desires. There was no
hierarchy, only the deeply loving embrace of desire
and delight.
"Here in manifestation, however, it
has become huge problem. Spirit has not known what
is best to manifest, because only Will's desire
holds that knowing. And only Will that is truly free
can know what she truly desires.
"Although this has been called a
'free will' Creation, the protocol for manifesting
has come from the top down. Will has been trapped
into serving the delight of Spirit, unfortunately
with Spirit having very little understanding of the
depths of Will's longings and desires.
"To make matters worse, most Spirit
that has engaged in manifestation with Will in this
Creation has been denied spirit, unloving light that
has been contemptuous toward the Will he has used to
manifest his delight. This is how you have come to
manifest parking lots instead of forests, work
instead of play and competition instead of
cooperation.
"The problems caused by Spirit
overriding Will have been with us ever since Grandfather and the Original
Mother lost most of the Will that had been
present in Original Heart. These issues are now
present in Body in this Creation, and this is where
they can be resolved, where they can be healed.
Again, the principle is very simple. In the
hierarchy of Spirit, Body, Will—what is below must
lead what is above. Body must lead Spirit, and
Body's Will must lead Body."
How to Free Trapped Will
"Here is the key to freeing all your
trapped
Will.
First,
use your parental free Will to help the present
trapped Will get free. In other words, decide that
you will be the Healer
of yourself.
"Now with the greater resources and
resolve of having more parental free Will, find your
lost Will and help her gain her freedom as well. In
other words, follow the Four
Steps to Wholeness. And it's no coincidence
that this is just the opposite of what 'everyone
knows' is the sure way to freedom, lifting out of
and leaving behind the unwanted, awful feeling
trapped Will.
"There is a secret here, however. The
secret to using this key is to find Body's Will, and
help her become untrapped. This is a very scary
prospect for many. What havoc might be wrecked in
the world if Body could do just as Body wants to do?
"Spirit's
fear
of being engulfed and taken over by
'unreasonable' and 'capricious' Will and Body can be
very easily triggered in you here. Spirit has very
seriously judged against Body and Will whenever this
fear has been triggered. The sentient essence has
then become constrained and trapped by the defensive
power-over tactics of the spirit and mental bodies
who have not been okay with the power of choice not
being theirs.
"Even the so called new age mind-body
medicine makes this error, and in this way is
identical to the science-over medicine of Ahriman.
Body's Will must lead, if Body is to heal and become
free. And unless you wish to spend the rest of your
manifested existences in ever larger and better
parking lots, your Will must become free.
"To understand the secret to using
the key requires both a deep commitment to heal and
a firm willingness to risk everything in doing it.
Here is the secret, if you are ready. First,
consciously choose to
dedicate all of your free Will to helping free
all of your trapped Will. In other words, will to
heal, not escape. Second, take Spirit's advice, and
drive backwards under guidance.
"When your conscious intention and
your free Will are dedicated to healing into
wholeness, and nothing else matters more to you—you
are ready to take responsibility for healing
yourself and all of Creation. When you are relying
entirely on your Will and her right mate, loving
Spirit for inner guidance, you are doing the work.
"And when you are no longer planning
a future or believing what your imprints and
conditioning have been telling you about what you
must do and not do, or that you must protect
yourself from something—you are doing the work.
"I now invite you to come here
inside. Body is as near as the breath you are about
to take. Stop. Feel into yourself for a moment,
sense what is inside of you. It's not anywhere
outside, it's right here, it's you. You are Body.
You are Body, the Healer
of Creation."
