A Teaching on prophets and propheciesJohn the Beloved, I AM John the Beloved. I am known to you as the author of the Apocalypse. And I have come again in order to give a Teaching posited on the internal knowledge – the knowledge that was easy of access only to prophets and mystics. Such people still exist in this day and age, but they are often mistaken for charlatans of all persuasions who declare themselves prophets or clairvoyants, or psychics, while the threshold of their perception of the Divine World is so low that at times it would be better for their future if they stopped their prophecies and fell silent. What do you think – is there any karma carried by prophets and what that karma is? I will tell you, since I know very well what kind of karma we are talking about. There is no difference between prophesying and any other activity in which you can be engaged in the physical world. And prophets come in all shapes and sizes. There are prophets making prophecies from the Light, and there are prophets who soothsay from darkness. Each prophet chooses for himself which forces to serve. Soothsaying is a gift of contact with the invisible world. This gift is acquired during not just one embodiment. And when this gift is granted to a person prophesying from God, this person usually realises the full karmic responsibility laid on his shoulders. Prophesies represent probabilities of occurrence of events sensed from the higher plane. Depending on the plane and the level at which the prophecy is sensed, it can be more or less accurate. But as long as familiar things of the physical plane are missing in the higher plane, the gift of prophecy presupposes a gift of events’ representation based on the impressions from the contact with the higher plane. Since the human mind is involved in the process of the representation of impressions, a distortion of information takes place at this stage and the authenticity of the prophecy is lost. In view of the fact that I wrote the Apocalypse with symbols, I managed to avoid the karma laid on the prophet in the case that the oracle failed. And each expert in forecasting provides his veiled knowledge in the form of verses, parables and quatrains. This is very fair, as it makes it possible to avoid karma if the prophecy is erroneous. There are other prophets who use human interest in oracles and soothsay in down-to-earth language, positing their prophecies on the knowledge they draw from the low levels of the astral plane or while being under the effect of mind-altering drugs. These prophecies do not contain big truths. And they do not come true, as a rule. The probability of such prophecies coming true is fifty per cent. This is just the case when people say, “There’s many a slip between the cup and the lip”. However, the aspiration to satisfy human interest in soothsaying puts a great karmic responsibility upon such prophets and clairvoyants. In the case that the prophecy is incorrect, the more people know about this prophecy, the greater the responsibility is. The point is in the fact that any prophecy programmes the consciousness of people who give credit to it. And if there are heaps of people who wish to believe the prophecy, these people create by their consciousness an opportunity for the realisation of such a prophecy. And if a phenomenon predicted by a forecaster does not coincide with the Divine vision, but is realised and takes place due to the momentum of human consciousness involved in this phenomenon, karma lies both upon the forecaster and those people who contribute to the realisation of this phenomenon by their consciousness. That is why any oracle is a two-edged sword. If a prophecy alters the Divine plane for the better, the realisation of such a prophecy brings good karma to all the people who take part in its realisation by their consciousness. If the Divine plane is worsened as a result of the prophecy, a negative karma of the prophecy is created. Soothsaying is a phenomenon as dual as everything in your world. And those people who come under the influence of the energy of the prophecies of false foretellers create negative karma. The prophets of Light have always been out of favour, because the majority of people did not like the oracles coming through them. People have always treated such prophets cautiously. They would rather have no dealings with them and try to quash them physically. The karma of despatching a prophet of Light fell as a heavy burden on the next generations. In contrast, any veneration of God’s prophets brought good karma to the family of the person who showed hospitality to a prophet. True prophets were always messengers of God, and their mission was necessary in order to contribute to the right development of human consciousness. Those who declared themselves as prophets without having been stamped with the seal of God incurred a descending heavy karma on them. Therefore, always observe and examine and do not let yourselves get involved in any activity relating to prophecies if it is not from God, if it is demonic. I am giving you this Teaching, since, although hundreds of years have passed from the moment of my incarnation, it has not lost its reality. In contrast, it has acquired actuality, as many visionaries and clairvoyants have appeared who do far more harm than good. And if you are involved in their activity, resort to their services and pay for them, you create karma of a wrong action. I have come to give you this important Teaching on the true and false prophets in order to help you to be able in your consciousness to approach everything you meet on your Path in this sphere with your eyes open. It is very important where you direct your energy. None of the false prophets would be able to foretell if you did not give them the energy of your attention and your money, thus encouraging them to take up this ungodly business. False prophets are the children of impure human consciousness, ignorance and superstition. And now that the body of the Teaching has been given, I would like to make a prophecy relating to your future. Before my coming to you, I and the other Ascended Masters were pondering whether it was worth giving you this prophecy through this messenger, as we had to consider the purity of the conductors and the degree of distortion of the information which might happen. We have decided to run a risk, and so I am starting. In this anxious time in which you are living, you constantly think about many things and especially about the future of your planet, whether there is a threat of the next global cataclysm on it. That is why it is very important for you to hear that it is unlikely that any global cataclysm will take place during the life of the generation living now. But everything can change, if you do not endeavour to transform your consciousness daily. The stable equilibrium on the planet which has been achieved so far depends for its existence on the fact that many people have raised in their consciousness to such a level where they are able to think positively and to direct their efforts to the public weal, to the Good and the Light. And if the number of such people increases with each year, no global cataclysm will occur during the life of the next generation either, because each preceding generation paves the way for the next one. And by your consciousness you are preparing a steady development for all the living on earth during the next cosmic cycle. I wish you to successfully continue keeping your consciousness on this high level. I AM John the Beloved, with great respect to your I AM lifestreams. © Messenger Tatyana Mickushina |
