What you mentioned in your introduction is correct.  As Mother Spirit and I have confessed a number of times, we do delight in introducing our children to themselves--to all that you are, both for your own inner awareness and so you can see this in others.  Yes, you are a highly complex being, but consider for now just the conscious part of you, the part of you that you know of right now as you are sitting here or reading these words.  This is normally what we mean by you.  This is the--you--that we address.  This is your conscious, thinking self.  This is the part of you that has ready access to your memories and all your more immediate plans for the future.  This is the part of you that has rather elaborate schedules to carry out, both by yourself and in all your relationships.  Yet being such a complex person, this conscious self--as you may be aware--is only a small part of your total personhood.  Your God-created personality, endowed with spirit, has the power to make all of you real to you.  It is your personality that real-izes your life--makes your life real.

You are endowed with creative spirit so, from a very early age of gaining a continuous consciousness, you’ve formulated an interior, subjective/imaginative world that is unique to you.  This inner reality begins to have greater and greater contact with the outside world, first through your mother and father, then your siblings and playmates, and soon enough you are thrown into a kindergarten or a first grade classroom with a dozen others to relate to.  Then here comes that whole big wider adult world out there.  You’ve all come up through these stages.

Meanwhile you have a body that is 99.9999 percent unconscious for, as we’ve said, all your science has still to plumb the depths of what this body of yours is constantly doing.  You have a mind that connects your personality with your body, and a large part of this consciousness is what we call material mind, based directly upon your organic being.  This is the kind of mind you share to a degree with the highest primates, only, just in terms of brain size and nervous system capacity, you far exceed by several orders of magnitude any other animal on the planet.  In addition, much of your modern psychology has correctly taught you that a large part of your mind is also unconscious.  These are all the endless, intricate details of habituation, abilities, mind/body coordination--all the thousands of things you’ve learned to do and associate automatically.  This includes your reasoning facilities.  These too are largely unconscious.  Consider all of the conditioning that you acquired as you contacted the larger outside world and absorbed unconsciously from your parents and their political viewpoints and religion, and from being a member of this country or that, part of an ethnic group, a racial group.  All of these spiritual/mental associations from personal experience give your life meaning and value.

Then here we come along, as if you weren’t already complex enough, informing you that a large part of your being, your spiritual and mental being, is literally Mother Spirit and dimensions of her Holy Spirit: part of your thinking, part of your intuition, your knowledge, your understanding, your courage, even your wisdom and your worship.  All are being augmented by her.  You have my spirit, my Spirit of Truth inside you as an orientation towards an endless adventure of discovery of what is true, what is real, what works.  All will keep expanding.

Topping all of this you’re blessed with an individualized presence of God for company, a presence that can literally adjust your thoughts towards ever more spiritual, all-encompassing concepts and realizations if you choose to acknowledge His presence and feel His love, and listen.  He is here, not only as the encompassing within which we live, but also right inside you.  His presence is capturing your life in a spiritual construct so amazing, so much more of you, my children, in terms of soul, you have not yet developed concepts for--but you will.  As we’ve said a couple of times, part humorously but also part seriously, your recent developments in science and technology, and in your wonderful, imaginative arts of science fiction and science fantasy--all the movies and TV programs you’ve had delving into star travel and all kinds of futures: these have given us an ability to convey to you at least somewhat many of the different dimensions of reality that actually exist.
