Without
Technology and the Sciences, How Did Egos Advance to Mastership?
Question: The
reason why I asked that question was that it seems to me that in order to
make Master, you’ve got to know so much. How can a person who reached Mastership in the 16th Century be compared
to someone reaching Mastership today? Wouldn’t the
Master be that much more advanced because of all of the knowledge, the
background, all of the information we have available today?
Richard: You
are talking about the 16th Century?
Question:
Yes. Just as an example.
Richard:
By the time you are an Adept, you pretty well understand the basic science of
the Universe very well.
Question: Even
without having been exposed to that knowledge in that particular time period?
Richard: Well,
it wasn’t available in the sciences, but was
available in the awareness of many people who were already Adepts and
Masters. So there is where your real Teachers are,
once you get into the Adept stage. When the very, very first people started
becoming Adepts, it didn’t take too much longer
after that that They were Masters. There was no science to secure information
about how the Universe is put together at that time
at all, but They knew it because They were able to penetrate. When They
started out, They had Angels actually operating on the planet in the guise of
human beings to pass along that information to those who were nearing the
point of becoming Masters. So we’re supposed to be
able to penetrate all of this stuff Erotically; as a matter of fact, it’s a
lot easier to penetrate it Erotically than it is mentally. We’re just
supposed to, by Nature, from knowing nothing to eventually making
?? into clairvoyance and from that point
being able to see what’s happening elsewhere than just on the physical plane.
And that’s a great eye opener. Scary at first, I’m sure, but a great eye opener. So it’s the
sophistication today and the strong way in which people are imprinted from
childhood as to what the Universe is supposed to be according to various and
sundry authorities that makes it very difficult to see or to break through
into things that seem to be counter to what you’ve been taught all your life.
At the beginning, there was no such sophistication, no such authoritative
rules; you believed what you saw, not what you thought you were supposed to
see. So that made it a lot easier. The vast number
of people who became Adepts and Masters during the Lemurian civilization is
almost hard to believe, but everything was set up for it. From infancy, people
were exposed to, and expected, to understand things that are
closed to us today. But they were the things
that moved you to high advancement. I am not going to say that someone made
it to Adeptship in two or three incarnations; that’s
really not possible. But they already had half a
million years of incarnating before the Lemurian civilization got started, so
there’s a lot of things they knew already Erotically. Possibly
you’re concerned about how much stuff you’re going to have to learn to become
a Master. You’re going to be surprised how much you know after you go through
transition that the Ego has absorbed from literally thousands of other
incarnations unless you know by having impressed on this brain that you have
right now. There are plenty of people who don’t know
anything, and probably never will. For the next seven thousand years, they
just have not trained their brains or their Minds to absorb the things that
they need to absorb. They manage to slough off everything and live off
others’ preparations in the way of culture. But, if
you have the incentive and you want to be free of this cycle of rebirth over
and over again, you’ll make it pretty fast. You don’t
know how far along you are. All kids are pretty much the same. They all go
through the same stages of goofiness and ultimately make it to adulthood. But, boy, there’s a lot of stuff that they know. And, if they can bring it forward in this incarnation,
they are going to be way ahead of the game so far as everybody else in the
society-at-large is concerned. And some are just
goofy.
