Transformation And The Body

"If you will examine any teaching about reincarnation, you will find that the body is neglected in that teaching. The belief in reincarnation involves the idea that our true self is somehow apart from the physical, that it has entered the physical realm in order to accomplish something or to undergo some trial. This is duality: the supposed real self coming from the outside and incarnating in the body. It is separation. It is subject - object thinking. And so, the belief in reincarnation is dualistic thinking. It excludes the body from the process of transformation. The body becomes some extraneous vehicle which is used and then discarded.

When you realize, however, that The Consciousness is a synergy of all that is, you see that the body cannot be excluded. Synergy is that process where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. You are a synergy within the larger synergy that is The Consciousness. The body is an inseparable part of the synergy that you are. You are The Consciousness experiencing and expressing itself as physical form. The body is that expression. The Consciousness is continually expanding itself and making more connections in this experience. When you exclude the body from the process of transformation, you have blocked your realization of this experience.

The Consciousness is all-inclusive. Nothing is excluded from The Consciousness. Beliefs and concepts limit our experience of this all-inclusiveness. Radical transformation involves letting go of all of our beliefs and concepts, including those that would render the body as secondary or unessential.

In Life, you are The Consciousness experiencing itself as you. You are The Consciousness learning how energy works in the physical world. As The Consciousness expands itself in this process, the physical form changes. The physical form accelerates in order to house the expanded Consciousness. Many of you here are already experiencing this in the way of bodily shifts and changes. These are like growing pains as the body accelerates. In the process of learning how energy works in physical form, The Consciousness is moving toward transcendence of the physical. The physical form is being transformed so as to take part in this transcendence."
