There is a Real you and a synthetic you. The latter, while not really Real, can certainly feel real. That’s because this is where we find ourselves now…in the state of human consciousness. The ascended masters tell us this is a synthetic state, because we have literally created it through our thoughts, words and deeds. And we continually reinforce this consciousness as we go about our daily lives believing in the limits of human thought and feeling. You might say that this is the consciousness that comprises our human ego. Conversely, the Reality we seek is the merging with our sublime and limitless Divine Ego. This is the God estate to which the ascended masters point and to which we who embrace these teachings aspire. Unfortunately, there are many false teachings that twist the true path and, instead, glorify the human ego, emphasizing that human creation is somehow supreme. However, the only Real way to transmute human creation is through the Holy Spirit and the violet flame.
