Living in the Land of 'And'

​Consciousness is expanding on Earth at unprecedented rate – wonderful, it’s about time, we say. Consciousness is expanding – oh no, we say, everything is changing so fast! What do we hold onto? When we can’t recognize ourselves anymore, what do we identify with? How do we live, as humans, beyond a defined identity? Saint-Germain invites us to experience the “and”, the multidimensionality of our nature.
 
I used to think that dimensions are like hierarchical levels of the heaven of consciousness: We, the angels, descend down to the lower dimensions to experience human life just so that we can consciously ascend back to the higher dimensions. But where’s the fun in that? 
 
I’m starting to understand, or rather experience, what dimensions are really about. As I see it, multidimensionality is about the multiple dimensions of the Self: The past dimension, the current and the future; the child and the adult; the emotional self and the neutral observer; human, the ascended master and the soul… As we move from experiencing one dimension to another, the experience of the self transforms, rather than our surroundings. Dimensions are like spaces all folded within each other, in the here and now, and we shift our focus from one layer to another. Moreover, the soul exists in all dimensions at the same time. We can simultaneously see with our eyes, sense with our energetic senses, feel with our hearts. We are not just human until we are just soul. All this time, we are physical, while being electro-magnetic, while being light, while being beyond light. We simply have chosen to focus our attention in order to experience the earthly dimension in its full depth, in its raw, sensual totality. Until we choose to ‘remember’ our experience of several dimensions at once. 
 
I relish the sensual and aesthetic experience of wearing a great pair of shoes, and at the same time, I don’t care in the slightest what I’m wearing, because it really isn’t about the shoes. Hell, it isn’t even about life, it’s all about consciousness. But then again, what a luxury to be able to express the self through style and fashion! Living multidimensionally is seeing the bigger picture of who you are and, at the same time, experiencing all the human troubles and treats in full color and high definition. 

We don't "grow up", we expand in all directions. The soul exists in all dimensions at the same time.

Remember when you were 18, and there were days when you felt totally grown-up? Definitely more grown-up than your parents. And then there were days when you were fooling around with your friends, when being the irresponsible teenager was just so much more fun than being the emerging adult. That’s where we, the consciousness pioneers, are at, spiritually speaking. Did you notice that nobody gave you a certificate for being an adult? Sure, you received some legal rights, but nobody said: now you have graduated into adulthood, you have a license to be an adult, and others will acknowledge your adulthood. Didn’t happen to me… It’s the same with enlightenment: Nobody will hand you the certificate or give you the keys to unlock the hidden dimensions of yourself. You simply choose, sooner or later, to relate to yourself as a realized master. The rebelling teenager is still there, alive and thriving within us. It’s simply that we have unfolded additional facets of ourselves as time goes by: We don’t “grow up”, we expand in all directions. ​

​We can visually imagine our multidimensional self as a mountain: we exist simultaneously at the foot of the mountain, inside the mountain and at the peak. When we are only conscious of our experience at the foot of the mountain, life is difficult: We only see a few restricted paths with many obstacles right in front of our eyes, we don’t know where and how far the destination is. If we’re lucky or smart, we have a map that’s a bad representation of reality, and know the approximate direction. On the other hand, if we are aware of our dimension on top of the mountain, we have a lot more perspective: We see where the human self is currently standing, we see many different potentials and paths, we even see which path is the easiest in any given situation. We see that the obstacles are really very small, and have no doubt that the human will reach its goal, one way or another. After all, it’s all so easy – if we choose to see it from this perspective.
 
What freedom, what a relief it is to be able to choose on which dimensions to focus my awareness today. And then, a feeling of dismay: I always had a choice: Through all those difficult and challenging experiences, I chose to experience them from a particular dimension, usually a restricted and painful one, as the lost, separated human me. My soul and my realized self were right there through those experiences – without a drop of worry, because they, of course, had a wider perspective. I was never stuck in the 3-d prison of Earth: All this time I existed in all dimensions! Imagine what I must have missed out on while being so busy concentrating on all the drama down here.
 
How absurd… This realization almost makes me want to go back to live every experience of my life again, this time choosing to experience them through a different, lighter, dimension. Now I kind of understand this addiction we angels have, coming over and over again to be humans. It wasn’t about experiencing different situations. It was about experiencing those situations as different dimensions of ourselves. 
 
You can choose to be aware of the dimension on top of the mountain right now. When you feel angry, hurt or disappointed, allow yourself to feel everything in its full beauty and rawness. And, at the same time, ask yourself: how will you feel about this incident in five years? Will it still feel like a great catastrophe? When some unexpected chaos enters your reality, when you feel a pain in your chest that feels deeper than the wound of Isis, when you feel the conflict and the sadness in this world, remember that you are a soul, most likely with a thousand or more lifetimes on Earth, and who knows what other experiences elsewhere. And remember: whatever happens, you exist, and the rest is mere entertainment. 

What freedom it is to be able to choose on which dimensions to focus my awareness today.
