Ascended Master  Saint Germain through Kim Michaels, March 8, 2026. This dictation was given at the conference in Vilnius, Lithuania: Making a Difference in a Turbulent World.

 I AM the Ascended Master Saint Germain, and I would like to provide you with some more down-to-earth practical suggestions for how you can make a difference in a turbulent world. 

Information overload

One of the problems that many people encounter in these years is that they are bombarded with so much information that it scatters their minds, and they do not

know what to focus on. The first thing I suggest here is that you pay attention to your own reaction to the information that is coming at you through whatever channels you seek information and news. And you pay attention to how this pulls you in different directions, scatters your attention, and overwhelms you. Many, many people in the world today are overwhelmed by all of the information, so to speak, overwhelmed by all of the bad news.

I suggest that you pick one or a few topics that you feel are important to you, and then you focus on the news on those topics, and you simply ignore the rest. You do not have to know everything that is happening in the world at any given time. It is enough that you focus on these topics that are important for you. Then you educate yourself on these topics so you can make better calls for your invocations and decrees. We have said before that you choose a few topics, you make yourself an expert in them. If you have a certain area where you feel you have some experience and expertise, you can make up your own invocations based on the models we have. You can write your own verses in between the verses of the decrees. There will also be other decrees coming up that you can adapt to specific topics.

Christhood does not mean knowing everything 

Beyond this, let us talk about Christhood. Christhood is often viewed by people who are aware of the concept even, as some unrealistically high thing, high state of consciousness. You tend to want to think that the Christ mind knows everything and that is of course correct enough, the Christ mind does see everything. But you are not the fullness of the Christ mind and therefore, you are not expected to be aware of everything. So even though Jesus talked about the expression of your Christhood and letting the Christ mind flow through you, it is not constructive for you to think that you should be able to have the Christ mind talk about every topic. 

There are certainly ascended master students who think that if you are a sponsored messenger who has a mantle from the ascended masters, then we should be able to speak about any topic through that messenger. But this is not a realistic expectation. You can say, in your own case, you have reached a level of consciousness where the Christ mind can flow through you but what comes through from the Christ mind is a stream of consciousness, not words.

How a dictation is given

As I am giving this dictation, I am not standing up here in some higher realm, yelling down to the messenger: “I AM the Ascended Master Saint Germain, repeat this.” I am allowing a stream of my consciousness to flow into the messenger’s, through the messenger’s Conscious You, into the identity body, mental body, emotional body and physical. And in the four lower bodies of the messenger, the stream of consciousness is translated into words. In other words, he is not hearing words or seeing them written in flaming letters on the back of his eyelids and then repeating that. Could I send an identical stream of consciousness into the mind of another person who was trained as a messenger? Well, of course I could. Would that be the exact same message? No, because the words would be different from person to person. Even if we said that we had two trained messengers standing here and they were both receiving the same stream of consciousness from me, the words

would not be identical because as I said, the words are not determined at my level. The stream of consciousness is the topic, the concepts but the exact words are not determined at my level. The stream of consciousness is translated into words in the messenger’s consciousness. Now saying this would offend some students from previous dispensations. But it would not offend the messengers from previous dispensations, for they have experienced exactly what I am saying. 

Now, this does not mean, mind you, that the words are entirely colored by the messenger’s consciousness because in that case a dictation from Jesus would sound the same as a dictation from me and I of course have certain expressions, certain mannerisms, certain wordings that I use. And the messenger is attuned enough to my stream of consciousness that they can be spoken and therefore, the messenger can speak a dictation in a different way that he would speak normally.

But still my point for this long discourse is to show you that when the Christ mind flows through you, it will be the same way. And what does that mean? Well, it means that there has to be some structure in your identity, mental and emotional minds that the stream of consciousness can activate so it is translated into words. And that is why if the messenger knows nothing about a particular topic, I cannot give a meaningful dictation through him about that topic. Brain surgery, not a hobby of this messenger. And the same of course goes for you.

Realistic expectations of your expression of Christhood

And I am giving you this teaching because I want you to have realistic, constructive expectations of your expression of Christhood. Many students in previous dispensations have had these far-flung, unrealistic visions of what it means to be the Living Christ. They think you are all-knowing, you should be able to talk about any topic. Now there is of course some difference between taking a dictation like you are hearing now versus just speaking but still having the Christ flow through you and this is an important distinction to make because being the Living Christ does not mean that whenever you open your mouth you are taking a dictation from some ascended master. Now it may very well be that you have a personal relationship with a particular ascended master so that when you open your mouth that master’s stream of consciousness does flow through you but it is not a direct dictation. And the reason why this is important is because when you speak it is important that you accept that your speech is personalized. 

You can take a video of this dictation and watch it. You will see a certain expression, certain wording, certain mannerism. You can take one of the messenger’s YouTube videos and you will see it is different when he is speaking as a person and the same will be for you. And why is this important? Because when a messenger gives a YouTube video, when Kim gives a YouTube video because he is not the messenger when he records a YouTube video, he is sharing his personal experience and why is that important? Because it makes it easier for people to relate to him. 

They can relate to you as a person more easily than they can relate to me as an ascended master and one aspect of the Christ mind is, as we have said, the Christ mind is at the lowest level of consciousness possible on earth and it is ready to express something that can help a person at that level see some illusion and take the next step up. 

Turning your mistakes into assets

And that means that we now have an other misunderstanding that is often there in spiritual people, even Christians and ascended master students and that is that in order to be the Christ, you cannot have done any bad things in your life. You should have been perfect from the moment you were born and if they believe in reincarnation, they might say you should have been in a high level of consciousness for many lifetimes.

But you see, what is it that Christ wants to do? It wants to reach everybody and people are at different levels of consciousness, they have different backgrounds, different experiences. I look at each one of you, I look at your history in this lifetime. I do not have any judgment or condemnation of anything you have done, for I see it as

an opportunity to reach people in a similar situation. You see, your mistakes, your problems, the Christ turns them into assets. Nothing you have done was wasted, nothing you have done was a mistake. It was a way to give you experiences that could help you resolve psychology but when you resolve the psychology, it is an opportunity for the Christ mind to flow through you and help other people. 

I am an ascended master. In a sense, I can see everything that happens on earth but what I cannot do as an ascended master is go into the mind of an unascended person and experience what they are experiencing from the inside. I ascended a long time ago. Certainly there are some parallels of psychology that I went through, but the world was in a certain sense much simpler back then. I cannot relate to what many people are going through today, and therefore, they cannot relate to me. But you who have gone through the same in this lifetime, you can relate to them, they can relate to you. Whatever experiences you have had, when you allow the Christ mind to flow through it, it becomes an asset for helping others. This requires, of course, that you are willing to talk about it openly, and for that you have to resolve the self that saw it or sees it as a mistake, the self that judges yourself.

Projecting a standard upon the Christ

What have other masters been trying to say during this conference? Everything you encounter on earth is what?— [audience:] An experience. I am glad some of you are awake or were awake in the past two days. It is an experience, it is neither good nor bad. It is not a mistake because even in duality and separation, it is neither good nor bad, it is just an experience. Because what is the purpose of an unascended sphere? It is the growth of consciousness, the transcendence of self. How do you grow in consciousness? By having experiences and any experience can be used for the growth in consciousness. It is just a matter of processing it. You see what the fallen beings have done on earth, they have, as we have said so many times before, projected there is a standard that you must live up to. There is a standard for how you are a good communist, a good American, a good Frenchman, a good Brit (you have to have wit). And there is a standard for what it means to be a good Christian, a good Buddhist, a good Muslim, a good Hindu. Oh yes, and a good Christ.

 The fallen beings, trapped in the consciousness of anti-christ, blinded by that consciousness of anti-christ, they have the arrogance to believe that they can define a standard for what it means to be the Living Christ and how the Living Christ should express itself in this world. And anyone who takes embodiment on this planet will be affected by this very aggressive mindset, including myself when I was in embodiment. Including Jesus, Mother Mary, the Buddha, we all had to deal with it. Why? Well, partly for our own growth, partly to demonstrate that you can be born in a manger and still ascend from earth. To demonstrate that whatever you go into in the material world, you can rise above it, you can transcend it. But how are you going to transcend it? Not by judging yourself according to the standard of the fallen beings but by realizing that in order to deal with that standard, you have created a separate self. And once you create this self, the fallen beings can relax, go to the beach, smoke a cigar, because they do not need to judge you anymore. You are judging yourself, you are doing their work for them.

And when you see this, you can say: “Hey, this is ridiculous. Why am I doing this?” And then, of course, you can have a part of this self that says: “Oh, you must be really stupid for falling for this lie. You must be stupid for judging yourself.” And then you can step back and say: “Where did that come from? Is that not just another self that is unreal?” And eventually you come to this point where you see that it is just complete unreality. What the fallen beings have attempted to do, you understand, is to project a standard upon the Christ and how the Christ should be expressed in this world. But as we have said before, as Jesus explained so carefully, the role of the Christ is to never conform to the standards and the expectations in this world, but to always challenge them, to go beyond them, thereby challenging people to transcend their current beliefs, their current mental images, their current sense of self. 

Knowing  better than Christ

But what many people do is they fall for this trap and then they think that when the Christ speaks, it should affirm the viewpoints to which they are attached. 

This is what Peter did in the situation where Jesus asked his disciples: “Who do men say that I am?” And Peter says, when he tells them he should go to Jerusalem and be persecuted and crucified, he says: “Be it far from thee, Lord” because he thinks he knows better than the Christ. He thinks that his image of what the Christ is and what should or should not happen to the Christ is the highest possible image. And therefore, he feels he is entitled to correct Jesus and tell him how he should be the Christ. Essentially, Peter, who did not have the level of Christhood, was trying to tell Jesus how Jesus should be the Christ, how he should express his Christhood. That is, in essence, the consciousness of the fallen beings, also an aspect of the duality consciousness that has not fallen but still believes that from the state of separation it can project how the world works. 

It can even project how that which is beyond separation should behave or speak because, as we have said, when you go into separation, the ego has the insecurity and it seeks to cover it over by being right. And therefore, it formulates dualistic viewpoints and says: “communism is the ultimate philosophy, Christianity is the only true religion, scientific materialism is the only fact” and then it seeks only validation for those beliefs. But most of you are very close to being able to break through this and give up having any fixed beliefs. You can literally, if you are willing, look at yourself and say: “What beliefs, what mental images do I have that I think are true, that are accurate, that are factual, that are real, that are however you see it? What do I have that I am reluctant to question? What do I have where I would have a negative feeling if that belief was not validated, but was threatened or even proven wrong? How would I feel if my belief in the earth being flat was proven wrong?” I trust none of you believe this, but for the sake of example: “How would I feel?” And then you can realize that this outer belief is keeping you trapped at a certain level of consciousness, but it is also preventing you from being the open door for the Christ.

You see what I said earlier, you have to have a structure in your mind, right? So, you will say: “I am a nuclear physicist. I believe in the many worlds interpretation of quantum physics. Every time someone makes a decision, an entirely new universe is created, where there is both the one option chosen and the other option chosen. Therefore, innumerable versions of the universe exist simultaneously.” Now you are rising, you are close to Christhood, you are beginning to feel some flow and maybe in other areas where you are neutral, the Christ mind can flow through you, because there you are not seeking validation for a particular belief. But when it comes to nuclear physics, which is actually where you have the greatest expertise, the Christ cannot flow because you are only looking for validation of the many worlds interpretation, and you are not open to other possibilities. And this you can examine in yourself, and you can come to that point where you begin to see this. That many of you are very close to being the open door, but you have one or few beliefs that you are very attached to, and therefore, the Christ cannot flow freely, or cannot perhaps flow at all in a certain area.

Open your mind to the Golden Age of Saint Germain 

You see what I have said many times about my golden age. The golden age that I envision is far beyond current conditions. That means that if you take my highest vision of the golden age and compare it to today, there is hardly anything on earth that would remain unchanged if we manifested that ultimate vision. There would be a few mountains, the oceans but certainly there is no aspect of human knowledge that would remain unchanged when the golden age is manifest. That means whatever knowledge you have, you may be a nuclear physicist, you may have studied nuclear physics your whole life, you may have experimented, you may have run the particle accelerator at CERN, and you may feel that you are at the top of your field. Yet no knowledge that you have today would be seen as valid in the golden age because physicists, or whatever we should call them, they would not even be called physicists at that time, would have a completely different worldview. 

And how could that worldview be brought into conscious awareness of people? Well, somebody has to receive it from the Christ mind, from my mind, the flow through my mind. But in order to receive it, well, there must be room in the inn for the Christ to be born. There must be an openness to receive an idea and if you are attached to the validation of a particular theory, or belief, or world image, you are not the open door so

I must try and find someone else. But can I find someone who has the expertise, the experience, the background that you have? Well, in some cases I can, in some cases not but that is not even the point. The point is, what did you define in your Divine plan for the contribution you want to make to the manifestation of my golden age? 

I can guarantee you that when you made your Divine plan, you did not define: “I want to come into embodiment and have Saint Germain validate this belief.” You defined: “I want to be the open door for Saint Germain to bring forth new ideas and I see that I have certain beliefs I am attached to from past lives, so I need to put myself in a situation where those beliefs are challenged, so I have the biggest opportunity to let go of them so I can be that open door.” 

Get on with it. Open the door! Open your mind! Do not tell me how to manifest my golden age. If you want to manifest a golden age, I suggest you ascend and find yourself an unascended planet where you can be the hierarch for the coming 2,000 year period. I have no problem with that. But you do recognize, do not you, that you are not ascended so do not be like Peter. I am not quite as dramatic as Jesus, I do not want to say: “Get thee…” and you know the rest.

Initiation at the 96th level 

You see, there will be some time after you reach the 96th level, you overcome the focus on self, you are going through an interim period. I am not saying that at the 96th level you need to be the completely open door but what I am saying is that in order to overcome the focus on self, you have to overcome your attachment to certain beliefs. Why? Because what are you doing at the 96th level? You are taking the self that you built from the 48th to the 96th level, your sense of self as an advanced spiritual student, and you are letting it die and that self has attachments to certain beliefs. They were constructive for you because they drove you to reach higher in consciousness but now there comes a point where they are a millstone around your neck. You see, if you are wondering: “Have I passed the initiation at the 96th level? Am I the living Christ? Have I overcome the focus on self?”—Look at your beliefs and ideas. Are there any that you are attached to?—Well, then you have not overcome the focus on self because you have not let the self die.

You have not been willing to let your sense of sophistication, your sense of knowing better than Christ, as Peter demonstrated, you have not been willing to let it die and be reborn as a babe in Christ: “I can of my own self do nothing. I can of my own self know nothing. I can of my own self define nothing, the Christ within me doeth the work.”

This is a necessary period to free yourself completely from all remnants so that you can begin to relate to your I AM Presence and your ascended masters instead of relating to the earth. There will still be some remnants as you climb beyond the 96th level but once you have let that self die, it is far easier for you to gradually identify them and let go of them because you are not attached to them. Your sense of self is not based on it. 

Look at how many people in the world are attached to a certain belief. Look at these people who believe the earth is flat and who spend most of their attention arguing why this is a fact. Look at fundamentalist Christians who spend all of their lives trying to argue why the Bible is the literal word of God. Or Muslims, or Communists, or scientific materialists, or whatever you have. They base their sense of identity on their beliefs, on certain beliefs that are formulated here on earth. 

New identity in Christ 

What is the Christ? It is when you do not base your sense of identity upon anything on earth but on the individuality of your I AM Presence and what you experience as the flow of Christ from the ascended realm. That is your identity. In the beginning it may feel as if you have no identity because compared to what you had before it seems like: “I have no opinions, I have no attachments, I have no real personality as I used to have.” But gradually you begin to tune into the individuality in your I AM Presence, and you experience it as it is being expressed and therefore, you overcome that sense of being empty. It is necessary to go through it but it does not have to last that long. 

Being the Living Christ, what is the experience of being the Living Christ? There is no experience of being the Living Christ. You will never come to a point where you say to yourself: “Ah, I AM the Living Christ. Here I come, ready or not.” Why? What is it you give up when you give up the focus on self? You give up defining yourself in relation to this world, in relation to concepts. As Jesus said, if you have a concept of your I AM Presence you cannot connect to the Presence. You can only know your Presence when it is expressed through you. The same thing with the Living Christ. You are not knowing ahead of time what Christ is going to say, you are letting it flow. In a sense, when you give up that sense of self you give up the image of yourself as something or someone. That is why if you say: “I AM the Living Christ” you are not there. You may be close, but you still have a concept of what it means to be the Living Christ that you have not given up. 

You need to acknowledge your Christhood—not declare it 

You have this concept of enlightenment: “Ah, this teacher was enlightened, that guru is enlightened” which is why he has sex with all the women in his movement so they can become enlightened. If you say: “I AM enlightened,” you are demonstrating you are not enlightened because enlightenment is when you go beyond any concepts in this world identifying yourself with them, defining yourself based on them. 

You see, one of the misunderstandings that many people have based on the idolatry created around Jesus, for example, or many other spiritual teachers, is that being the Living Christ is special. Jesus walked around down there in the hot desert, the dusty desert but his clothes were always clean. His feet smelled good, he was always cool, calm and collected, never a drop of sweat on his brow. But you see, this is not reality, it is reali-two, the dualistic view where there are always two opposite polarities. 

That Christ must be the ultimate sense of security for the ego, the ego’s dream of ultimate security can be transferred to the Christ and therefore, many people have believed that when they attain Christhood, they are better than others. But if you see yourself as better than others, you are still comparing based on a dualistic scale. That is why I am saying you come to a point where you experience, and you consciously recognize you have attained Christhood, but you also experience that you have attained a certain level of it and there are other levels above you. You acknowledge consciously that you have turned a corner on the spiritual path, and it is important to do this, but you do not need to declare this to the world. Partly because it can trap you but partly because it will trap other people, where they transfer their idolatry to you. And as the Christ, why would you want that? 

No more need to hide anything 

As I said, you, based on your background can relate to people who come from the same background but only if you do not deny what you have gone through. If you can speak about it freely and neutrally and openly as many of you have done in this conference, some of you even publicly. You see, many people will think that if you have attained Christhood, you forget all about your past. It does not matter that you were a member of a motorcycle gang when you were in your twenties. No, it does not matter to you because it does not define you but it might matter to others that you could inspire so why deny it? Why hide it? 

You see, the ego wants to hide. What does the Living Christ in embodiment want to hide because when you experience the Christ mind, you experience you cannot hide anything from the Christ mind. Without Him was not anything made that was made. How can you hide anything from the Christ mind? And in fact, you could say that this last remnant of this self that you give up at the 96th level, part of that is the desire to hide something from the Christ mind. 

You have some students that over a long period of time, many embodiments, they work their way up to the 96th level and then they are hanging on the cross of the four lower bodies but contrary to Jesus, they are not willing to give up the ghost. That last self that is defined in relation to this world, that has defined themselves as somehow superior advanced students but also wants to hide something from Christ and the ascended masters and God. You have to give up the desire to hide from God and quite frankly, if there is something you know is not hidden from the Christ mind, why would you need to hide it from other people? 

Becoming en expert in human psychology 

Now I am not saying you need to go out and talk about every experience you have had. But what I am saying is that you come to a point where you are so neutral that if you are in a situation, where talking about your experience could help another person, you are open to doing it. You are open to letting the Christ light flow through you and take the form of your experiences so that the other person can relate to you and think: “Oh, if he or she has experienced the same thing, but has risen above it, maybe I can too because after all that person did the same thing as I am doing now.” In a sense, we can say yes, you can pick a topic, certainly. Many of you, some form of society, politics, science, education, whatever it may be. You can make yourself an expert so that Christ has a structure to flow through in that particular area. But this does not mean all of you have to do that, because you can become an expert on human psychology, personal transformation. You can become an expert on yourself, so to speak, so you can help others who are going through what you went through but have overcome. 

In a sense, I would recommend that all of you, even if you focus on scientific topics, have some expertise on psychology. Einstein would have greatly benefited from having the same awareness of psychology that most of you have, because he could have actually brought forth a higher scientific theory than the theory of relativity. You see here, again, you can say, am I overwhelming you with information? 

You are not alone

But you do not need to all take everything I have said. You need to find the few things in this dictation that resonate with you and then implement them so that you are not overwhelmed. Let me just give you a perspective that many of you have never considered. When Jesus appeared in physical embodiment 2,000 years ago, the reality was that while he was not the only person in embodiment with a Christ potential or who had reached the Christ consciousness, he was the only person in embodiment who could fulfill that particular role at that time. 

And we sometimes joke that Jesus had a flair for the dramatic, but he also knew how much was riding on him passing the initiations and setting the matrix for the next 2,000 years. He was aware that he could have failed. He could have said: “I am not going into Jerusalem to be tortured and crucified. I am going to go out in the desert and continue to preach for another 30 years.” He could have said nothing, that was his free will. He had a much greater sense of responsibility but in this day and age—what have we said—10,000 people in embodiment can manifest full Christhood in this lifetime, millions more a high degree of Christhood. Does that not take some of the weight off your shoulders? You are not single-handedly saving the world there are many of you in various capacities. Now, a few of you may have a subconscious self that says: “But I wanted to be the only savior so I could get all the glory.” If that is the case, go after it. It is just a self. 

Limitations of observations on earth 

Now for an entirely different topic, alchemy. I have given you some remarks in my discourse yesterday, but I will give a few more. What has science been doing for now several hundred years? Well, they have been doing the same thing that people have been doing for all of recorded history. You will probably know that some of the Greek philosophers were called the atomists because they were the first to talk about the atom as the smallest indivisible unit in the world, everything was made out of atoms. There were others of the Greek philosophers who thought everything was made out of water. But still, even back then, they were on a quest, part of that quest is to discover how the world works. You could say: “But what does it mean to discover something?” Even the Vedic seers thousands of years ago were on this quest to discover how the world works. 

But again, how do you discover how the world works? You must conceptualize it. But how can you conceptualize how the world works when you do not have the Christ consciousness? You must base it on what you observe in the physical world and how you have conceptualized that. You go back to the caveman stage where they had no real knowledge, no body of knowledge. They just experienced the raw nature and its forces. They still had a need to explain how the world works so they came up with various beliefs about gods or spirits or unseen forces. You take the Vikings who thought that thunder was the god Thor riding his chariot across the sky. 

You see here, as we have said before, once the earth had become an unnatural planet and matter was densified, conditions changed dramatically, and no one remembers how it was before. Therefore, people’s attempts to discover how the world works is based on current conditions that are unnatural. They observe the density of matter and therefore, the questions they can ask are based on their current understanding, conceptualization. 

You cannot ask a question that you cannot imagine, and you cannot imagine something too far beyond what you observe or what you think you know. What have scientists been doing since Galileo and beyond, myself and my embodiments as the two Bacons’? Well, they have been trying to ask better and better questions about how the world works but they have been limited by their observations of how matter works on an unnatural planet. That is why they have come up with this concept that there is matter, it is solid, because that is what your senses experience. But is that the only way to conceptualize what you observe around you? 

The mental box of materialism 

Scientists very gradually started asking more and more refined questions until they began to ask these questions that led to the realization that there are layers of matter. 

There is the molecular level, the sensory level, the molecular level, the atomic level, the subatomic level, and then there is the quanta, the quantum level. And at that level we are really not talking about matter, we are talking about energy. Despite these discoveries, relativity and quantum physics, physicists are still stuck in asking questions, how does matter work? And this is because they are attached to the materialistic paradigm. There must be nothing beyond the material universe, or rather our mental box. Ironic since they claim to have freed the world from the Catholic doctrines and superstition. But the Catholic doctrines were what? Just a mental box. You are not allowed to ask questions outside the box. 

Materialism is just another mental box. You are not allowed to ask questions otherwise they would have, as some scientists have started doing, asked these questions and they would have asked them earlier. Is matter the only way to conceptualize what the world is made of? Is our senses, our sensory perception, really the best foundation for asking questions about how matter works, how matter is created? Or even reasoning that there is something called matter and that is what has caused science, materialistic science, to ridicule the alchemists who were actually the first scientists. 

Matter is fluid

Because what is today one of the cornerstones of science? Experimentation. What did the alchemists do? They experimented they conducted practical experiments in their laboratories instead of interpreting Bible verses and using that to explain how the world works. Just as a side note, why is that a dead end? Well, because the Bible was given thousands of years ago when people had a lower level of consciousness and therefore, could not conceptualize what the early alchemists could conceptualize or what people today can conceptualize. 

Nevertheless, the early alchemists were also limited by the general knowledge of the time but at least they were open to the possibility that matter is not solid and unchangeable. But that all of the different forms of matter are expressions of a more fundamental substance and therefore, one form of matter can be transformed, transmuted into another form of matter because matter is not solid but fluid. And if that view had not been ridiculed and forgotten, where the scientists said get thee behind me Satan, alchemists, science would have been much further along today because relativity theory, quantum physics would have been discovered earlier. And this would mean that you would already now have technology that could transform one form of matter into another but as it is of course, this technology is still some way into the future. But it is of course getting closer, and you can actually, if you feel this is part of your Divine plan, help move that along. 

Even if you are not a scientist, you can study the topic and begin to conceptualize a different way to look at matter. You can of course tune into my Presence, and I may be able to give you some ideas for how to help this process along. For you see how new discoveries are often accredited to one person, but there was always more than one person, each person making a small contribution to moving knowledge forward, so that, for example, Einstein could ask different questions because he saw what Planck and others had discovered and even if you are not a scientist, you can make a contribution to this. But my greater point here is just to put out there in the collective consciousness that the early alchemists or the alchemists in general were actually conceptually on the right track. Experimentally they were very primitive and their experiments as they could conduct them at the time could not be successful. 

But with the technology you have developed today for producing vibrations, for producing energy waves, you could, with the right conceptual framework, transfer one form of matter into another and this would open up so many avenues for improving life on earth that you could scarcely envision it. Take just a typical example. Right now, rare earths play a role in creating electric batteries. They are only found in certain places, that is why they are rare. There are only very small amounts, which requires an enormous processing of enormous amounts of dirt, basically. You may have read that in order to produce enough lithium for one car battery, one electric car battery, they have to use thousands of liters of diesel fuel to run these big earth-moving machines so that basically the process of producing that electric car battery that does not pollute, pollutes more than a single gasoline car would do in its lifetime. The net effect is rather limited. 

But if you could produce these materials in a laboratory or rather an industrial facility, you would not have that equation. Now I am not saying thereby that electrical cars running on batteries is the ultimate solution, but as an interim step you could certainly have this because ultimately there will of course be free energy, so you do not need batteries, because you do not need to store electricity. But you see, that technology also requires you to have a more alchemical approach to matter, because you must realize that this free energy cannot be produced in the physical realm. It can only be received from a higher realm and directed into doing work in the physical realm, producing electricity, in the beginning at least. 

Acceleration of atoms

You see here that alchemy, the alchemists, the alchemical worldview, was open to something beyond the material world. And what is it that modern science is beginning to prove? That there are limitations to what you can do with technology in the physical world. Fossil fuels produce various pollutants that pollute the atmosphere. Nuclear weapons could wipe out all life on the planet. There is constantly a lack of energy. Imagine that you had a free energy source, how much more economic growth there would be in the world. In just a matter of a few years, the economy would grow exponentially, because you did not have the limitations of having to pay for energy. That means poverty could have been almost eradicated by now. You see here, again, the Christ can see everything as an opportunity. All of the limitations of technology that are beginning to come more into focus in people’s minds, the opportunity is to see that we must reach for a new way to conceptualize how the matter world works, that helps us realize that matter does not exist on its own. It is a product of something beyond the matter world and therefore, when we realize this, we can do things with quote-unquote “matter” that seem impossible today.

You take the early alchemists and show them some of the scientific instruments and the technology you have today, and they would consider it impossible. But is anything impossible? When you recognize that matter is fluid, and that if you know the component that is itself beyond matter, but from which all of what you call matter comes, you can transform matter. What is the difference between a lead atom and a gold atom? Only a matter of vibration, but that vibration is not physical. It is not what scientists today call the material universe. There is a vibration in a higher realm, a matrix that is being projected, superimposed upon the Ma-ter light that vibrates within the material frequency spectrum, and that manifests the atoms. You cannot directly turn lead into gold at the physical level. But when you go to the higher level and change the vibration there, you can transform lead atoms by accelerating their vibration to that of gold atoms.

 With this, I think I have exhausted your ability to sit still in a certain location. I, of course, am not sitting still, for I am not a static being, but a process, a flow of consciousness. I do not need to sit down, but I recognize that when I was in a physical body, I occasionally sat down or laid down, even though they are the myths of the Wonder man of Europe who never sleeps. But that was the Wonder man, not what I was as a human being, in embodiment. 

With this, my beloved, thank you for being willing to be part of this alchemical process. It has been my hope that I could transfer, transform, transmute some of the lead of your human consciousness into the gold of the Christ consciousness. But you see, that requires your free will choice, for that kind of alchemy is not mechanical, but creative. 

With this, I seal you in that Flame of Freedom. Alchemy is, in a sense, Freedom, and that I AM.

Back to Making a Difference in a Turbulent World

Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels, March 7, 2026. This dictation was given at the conference in Vilnius, Lithuania: Making a Difference in a Turbulent World.

I AM the Ascended Master Saint Germain. What can you do to help manifest my golden age in this turbulent time? Well, you can start by considering what happens if you throw a rock into a fast-flowing stream. There will be turbulence when the current hits the rock, but what does the water do? It just goes around the rock. There may still be turbulence, and the water has taken a slight detour, but when it passes the rock, the streams close again, and now, a little bit downstream, it is as if there was never a rock in the stream. 

The golden age is a process

Well, the progression of my golden age is like that. You can throw a monkey wrench into the stream, but the golden age flows around it. And why is that? Because the golden age is not a fixed ideal that I am working towards. It is a process like a stream. A stream is a process. The interdependent originations that flow and form the River of Life, and as such, nothing on earth can stop it. It is a stream that starts in the ascended realm, but connects with the upward movement created by the people on earth such as yourselves, who are helping to raise the collective consciousness. But it is also a stream that taps into the upward flow of the entire unascended sphere and the six spheres above it. It taps into the Creator’s own drive for self-transcendence in and through the world of form. Thus, it is unstoppable.

The golden age and free will

Now, you might say: “Well, that sounds good Saint Germain, but these other masters who came before you have talked for hours about free will. You are saying there is an unstoppable process that nothing on earth can stop, but how does that respect the free will of the people on earth who may not want your golden age? Or who have their own vision of the golden age, and they want that to be manifest?” Well, I would then say: “Yeah, you have people on earth, around eight billion, who have their free will, but no man, no woman, no planet, is an island.” You have untold myriads of beings in the unascended sphere who also have free will. Should the free will of eight billion people on earth really neutralize the free will of so many more beings? How do we balance free will here? Because you will see that those in the fallen consciousness, they will say: “Ha, my free will should be the one that determines the outcome of the entire universe.” But would that really be free will? Yeah, maybe for one person, but actually, does a fallen being have free will?

Because what is the fallen consciousness? It is, among other things, a denial of the fact that in an unascended sphere—well, for that matter, also in an ascended sphere, and especially in an unascended sphere—everything has consequences. You are perfectly allowed to do anything you want on earth, but you will experience the consequences. You cannot say, as the fallen beings do: “I want to be able to do anything I want and not experience the consequences I do not like. I want to do what I like, but not have consequences I do not like.” Yeah, that is not really how free will works because you are in the duality consciousness. Every choice you make in duality has two opposite polarities. There is a consequence you like, and there is a consequence you do not like. You can make any choice you want, but you must experience both consequences. Because if you are not, you are not actually exercising free will if you do not experience the consequences. 

Two aspects of free will 

You see, free will has two aspects. One is you make a choice to do something. The other aspect is that whatever you do in the material world sets in motion an energy impulse. And that energy impulse must be returned to you, because if it was not, how would you know you had done anything? The second aspect of free will is that you now have to react to the return current of what you send out. That is the other aspect of free will because then you have the opportunity to say: “do I want more of this, or do I want more than this?” 

Until you experience the return and react to it, you have not actually exercised your free will to the fullest. When you say you want to do anything you want, no matter how it affects other people, no matter how it affects you, because you do not want to experience the return current of it, you are actually denying your own free will. You are denying what free will is. 

You cannot stop the flow

That is why my golden age is a river that is flowing. And you can have people who throw a rock in the stream, they hammer a hole in the stream, they build a dam. And you can consider the Soviet Union to be: someone built a dam to obstruct the flow of energy in that part of the world that was encompassed by the Iron Curtain, surrounded by the Iron Curtain. And it did obstruct the flow, but did it stop the flow? No, the water kept rising. It undermined the foundations, but it rose behind the dam until the dam could not withstand the pressure, and it broke and therefore, there was again some flow, some flow. And then Putin is trying to stop this flow. But why did he start the war in Ukraine? Because the flow was threatening to overflow the dam again. He had to do something to try and divert the flow. You see, even if you try to stop the flow, you will still experience the return current, so that you have to react to that. And that is the fullness of free will and that is why nothing on earth can stop the flow that is bringing the golden age into manifestation. 

Now, of course, it is not an inevitable thing that will happen at a certain time in a certain way. The specifics of when and how are very much up to how people on earth respond. Do they tune in to the ideas, do they tune in to the flow and help to bring it down to the identity, mental and emotional, and into the physical, or do they seek to ignore it or resist it? Do they seek to hold on to status quo, to traditional values, to some dream they have that is out of touch with the golden age?

Resistance to the golden age

What is one of the ways that people are resisting the golden age? Well, the most important thing to understand is that there is a worldwide elite that is resisting the golden age because in the golden age there will be much more equality, equal opportunity, less privilege, less power. You cannot have an elite that has a privileged position in the golden age. For the golden age will improve the living conditions of all people and give them much more equal living standards, much more equal opportunity to improve their lives and their society. This the elite does not like. They will resist it. And some of the fallen beings even grasp what it means. Not really the ones in embodiment, but certainly those in the lower identity realm and mental realm. They do understand that the elite in physical embodiment will lose their power, will lose their privilege as we move further into the golden age. And they, of course, will do everything they can to resist it.

That is why you see this desperate attempt of elites to hold on to power. The party elite in China are desperately seeking to hold on to the illusion that China is still a communist state while also seeking to make as much money as possible. They are in a sense trying to maintain the illusion that China is still communist and at the same time trying to beat the capitalists at their own game. But you see, when you try to catch the greased pig, you will end up covered in mud. When you try to out-capitalize the capitalists, what do you end up being? A capitalist. A capitalist pig, as they might say in China [audience laughs]. And then you are really not a communist anymore, are you?

“Serfs” in Russia

Cognitive dissonance is the hallmark of the elite and that is why they must fall. Russia, the war against Ukraine—many perspectives you can take on it, but one of them certainly is that the power elite in Russia are trying to hold on to their positions or even strengthen them because they have concentrated so much wealth in the hands of a very small elite that some know that this is not sustainable. They are seeking to divert the attention of the Russian people by saying: “This war is so important—I am sorry—this special military operation [audience laughs] is so important for the state that you must be willing to sacrifice for the state—sacrifice the lives of your sons, but also sacrifice your living standard. It is so important to feed the war machine, you must accept that prices are higher, that wages are lower, that your living standard goes down, that you cannot afford to buy potatoes.” It is an attempt, as Master MORE talked about, to get the Russian people to accept less.

Tell me, when you look at modern day Russia with the oligarchs, how insanely rich they are, and you look at how many people in Russia live in houses that still have squatting toilets or outhouses, that do not have indoor plumbing, that do not have electricity. Tell me, how exactly is the Russian population better off today than they were under the tsars? How are they better off? Yeah, they have smartphones, they can go on the Internet, but now they are even shutting that down. Is it not just an illusion that they are better off? You have certain material things, but are you better off? Do you have more freedom? Or are you still serfs condemned to live your whole life filling a certain role?

The desperation of the elite

Then you go to the United States. You could consider that one of the greatest achievements of the fallen beings in terms of deception was to get a large group of poor, uneducated Americans to believe that by electing a billionaire as a president, their life would improve. And what has he done? Appointed billionaires as his cabinet secretaries. Or at least millionaires, because if you are not a millionaire, you just do not qualify to be in the Trump administration. Who supported him? Elon Musk, another billionaire. Amazon, Oracle, Microsoft, other big corporations supporting Trump. Why? Because they think he will give them or help them maintain their privileged positions because they know he wants what they have. He wants to be as rich as they are.

Can you not see that this is elitism outplaying itself in the extreme, becoming desperate? Why? Because they know that there is a growing dissatisfaction in the American public by the fact that their living standard has been systematically eroded over 40 years by wealth being funneled upwards. And they know that it is just a matter of a short time before the water starts spilling over the dam or undermining the dam, ripping its foundations away. They are desperately trying to create diversions.

The real problem on earth is elitism

I think some time ago I asked the question: “What can you do to help bring about my golden age?” And it may seem like this was a long distraction. But really, if you are to help manifest the golden age, you need to understand this dynamic. That the power elite, the fallen beings, are being allowed in these years to outplay their elitist mindset in more and more extreme ways so that more and more people will come to see it and come to that point where it is really not a matter of deciding do we want democratic societies or non-democratic, do we want capitalist or non-capitalist? But suddenly it is as a camera lens that has been out of focus and you turn it and it comes into focus. The problem on earth is elitism. That is the problem for all societies. The outer things are just camouflage because whatever society you have, even democratic societies, there will always be an elite that are trying to gain power and privilege by suppressing the population and their equal rights and opportunities. 

You look at the founding document of the United States, which they are going to celebrate this 4th of July. All men—should have been women also—all men are created—created equal. There is no elite and there never has been an elite that would accept that statement. For they believe that they are created more equal than anyone else. And when you truly lock into that, I know many of you have, but still, I project this into the collective consciousness through your attention. When people lock into that, that is when we can take the manifestation of the golden age to a higher level. Because now we can begin to see that the primary task for any society, but especially the democratic ones, is to counteract and transcend elitism. Nothing else really matters. All the rest are details. But until you see what the problem is, you are fighting blind. You are trying to solve problems that are not real problems. They are just diversions created by the elite to camouflage, to hide the elite.

Elitism at the core of the Catholic church 

What is the Catholic church? An entirely elitist organization that even created the feudal societies of medieval Europe where the king and the noble class were appointed by God to be in their positions. What were the real teachings of Christ? All men and women are created equal, there is no high or low. The high shall be made low and the low shall be made high. Meaning you come to a point where there is equality. That was the teachings of Christ. The Catholic church, as we might have mentioned a time or two before, turned it upon its head. Because what is it that the Nicene Creed says that Jesus read at New Year’s and commented on? Jesus is the ultimate elite, the only son of God. Right there you are creating this artificial hierarchy because not only is Jesus the only son of God, but he is sitting up there at the right hand of God, far removed from earth. And do you not dare think that you can reach him directly, even though he said the kingdom of God is within you. Nay. You can only reach him through the Catholic church, which is an entirely hierarchical organization with a pope on top. Elitism at its core. The priest can do something that no one else can do. They are men of God and you are not. 

Envisioning a new awareness 

This realization is working its way through the identity, mental and emotional levels. It has already gone far, many people have tuned into it. But it has not yet reached the critical mass. What you can do who are aware of this, you can hold that vision, that this awareness keeps rising behind the dam created by the elites of the world. And you can envision that the pressure builds until one day there is a little crack in the dam and it becomes longer and wider, and the water starts spurting through and other cracks appear, and one day the dam just bursts and the floodgates are opened. And this awareness washes over the planet, washing away the barriers erected by the elite. 

It is not the rising tide that lifts all boats. It is the floodwaters that sweep away all walls, including Wall Street [audience laughs]. Where the elites have created their financial instruments that concentrate more and more wealth in the hands of a small portion of people. You can envision, if you feel this is important for you, how there is an awareness that the economy of the world, even democratic nations, is elitist, has been directly manipulated by the elite to allow them to exploit the people and concentrate wealth in their own hands so that they have perverted the saying that to him who has, more shall be added. For Christ meant this as: “To him who has multiplied the talents by seeking to raise the whole, by doing for others, to him more shall be added.” But the elite are saying that to him who has taken by force here on earth, more shall be added because they take more and more by force through these financial instruments.

That is another awareness you can visualize will break through. You can even visualize that as the pressure keeps building, this entirely artificial gambling economy, as I have talked about, also breaks down and is replaced by a natural economy where only that which has value in the real world by doing something to raise people’s standard of living and society will actually make money. Where you cannot make money because you have money, but only by providing a product or service that improves life for people. Not just for yourself.

The principle behind alchemy

This was part of what I wanted to give you. But there is, as my good brother likes to say, more. You will know, perhaps, if you have studied previous ascended master teachings, that there is talk about Saint Germain and alchemy. We even published books through the Summit Lighthouse, Saint Germain on Alchemy, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Well, some of them have not been published yet, but anyway.

Alchemy. What is alchemy? Turning lead into gold, turning the lead of the human consciousness into the gold of the Christ consciousness. Well, but how are you going to manifest the golden age unless you turn present conditions into something higher? You see, the principle behind alchemy is that you do not start with nothing. You start with something and then you accelerate it to a higher state. I often talk about there are new ideas that need to be brought forth, there are new energies that need to come forth, and this is, of course, part of the golden age. But an important part is this process of taking something that is already there in the physical and accelerating it to a higher state. And how do you do this? By raising the vibration. 

It is not that the golden age will be manifest by erasing what is here, starting on a clean page and building something new, manifesting something new, lowering something in manifestation. Yes, there are ideas and matrices that will be lowered in manifestation, but the effect is that they will not destroy what is there, they will accelerate what is there to a higher state. This is what the fallen beings find it almost impossible to grasp because they tend to think that in order to create something new, you have to break down what is there. Erase it, zero it. And then you build something new. But the alchemical process that you see unfolding in history is that an existing society is improved, is accelerated, comes to a slightly higher state then, it keeps accelerating to another state, and so forth.

How do we overcome the gap?

How this is important for you is that by accepting this gradual process, you can avoid this disconnect that we sometimes see with spiritual people in general, and even with the previous ascended master students where they think that the golden age is some far-flung, utopian, fantastic society. Great, beautiful, marble buildings, gold in the streets, enormous affluence, pomp and circumstance. Probably angels playing trumpets at the city gates. And this means that previous ascended master students have not been able to really drive that development of the chaos, the turbulence in a new direction, to change the course of the stream because they thought there is a gap between what we have now and what will be there in the golden age. And how do you overcome the gap?

And this is a problem in all spiritual traditions. The gap that you cannot cross, because it is too big for what you can accept. That is why it is important to make that shift and realize the golden age will manifest gradually, by current conditions, current societies, being accelerated a little bit. It is, as we have talked about, with the 144 levels of consciousness, where so many people in various spiritual traditions have set some kind of goal for the state of consciousness they are supposed to reach, but it is way up there compared to what they have now. How do you cross that in one giant leap? Most people cannot, and therefore, most people fail to cross the gap. And they think they failed in many cases, because they could not manifest what they thought they were going to manifest with their treasure maps or what have you.

How do you get beyond this? How do you make the leap from the current imperfect conditions to the golden age? Well, you study quantum physics and you realize that what they are talking about there is a quantum leap. But what is the quantum? What is the whole idea of quantum physics? It is that the world does not change continually. This is what they thought in classical physics, that the world would change continually in a stream. There were no breaks. And then quantum physicists discovered that there is a smallest possible energy unit, the quantum, and it has a certain state of energy, and it can achieve a higher state of energy, but this does not happen continuously. It happens in a quantum leap from one state to another.

Tuning in to the process of small quantum leaps

And what you can do as spiritual students, you can tune into this, not quantum physics, but the process. Now, we have just talked extensively about the stream, and you are used to seeing the stream as a continual flowing process, uninterrupted, with no breaks. And that metaphor is usual to illustrate certain things as we have done. But when you go deeper, you realize that a stream is actually not a continuous phenomenon. It is just that the movements are so small that the eye cannot see them. The brain cannot see them, detect them, because they actually vibrate at a faster rate than the physical spectrum and therefore, neither the physical brain nor the physical eyes can see them, but your mind can. 

When your mind begins to attune to the higher vibrations of the Christ mind, when you go up to and beyond the 96th level, you can begin to see in your mind’s eye these small shifts, small breaks. And therefore, you can realize that in order to manifest an alchemical result, you cannot have the vision that there is one giant leap that leads from lead to gold, and that you should be able to accelerate lead in one giant leap to the state of gold.

Neither can you envision as an alchemist, that it is a continuous process that lead just gradually, without breaks, flows to the state of gold. You can instead come to see that, to use the common understanding of atoms, that there are lead atoms that vibrate at a certain rate, and gold atoms vibrate at a higher rate. Therefore, the lead atoms must be accelerated to the level of vibration of the gold atom. But how does this happen? Not in a continuous process, not in a giant leap. It happens in a series of quantum leaps where it is gradually accelerated. 

Yes, I know this is abstract, but at a certain level of consciousness it will no longer seem abstract and you can actually train yourself to tune in to this and see that you envision that gradual acceleration from one state through a small leap into a higher state, then another leap into a higher state, and you continue upwards until you reach that higher state. 

This you can achieve with the mind. The mind cannot handle the great leap, nor the continuous flow. It is as if you can train your mind to slow down the projection rate of a movie projector, so that it displays the images in such slow succession that your eyes can see the individual frames. This you can learn in your mind’s eye. To visualize a situation could be a clump of lead. It could be a condition in your body, and you accept it for what it is, but you do not accept it as permanent or unchangeable. You visualize a higher state, but instead of trying to visualize that the current state jumps instantly to the higher state or flows continually into it, you look at the current state, you visualize it, one quantum leap higher, then another one, then another one, and then another one—and this is doable. 

It is as if you realize that even a stream, even a river, is actually not a continuous movement, but a series of still frames that are being projected onto the screen of the Ma-ter light. And what seems to be a continuous movement is just such a rapid succession of still images that the physical eyes cannot detect it, nor the brain, but your identity body can see it, can detect it, and therefore, you can direct that flow from the current to the higher level—and that is alchemy. That is the alchemical process. 

Alchemy and Christhood

If you go into this mindset that you want the instant change from lead to gold, you can work for a lifetime without achieving it. And how does this tie in with the Christ consciousness? You can only really come to see these quantum leaps when you attain a certain level of Christhood. But what is Christhood? It is tuning in to those small, small changes. Many people, including previous students, have envisioned that Christhood is this ultimate state. But it is not. It is a process. It is the consciousness that unifies the Creator with his creation. But what is it the Creator created? A process that starts at a certain place and then gradually grows towards higher and higher states until it reaches the ultimate vision of the Creator. It does not happen in these giant leaps. You might get that expression because we have talked about how the Creator envisioned the first sphere and structures in the sphere. And you can say that the Creator has the creative power to manifest something instantly, but that is because the Creator’s consciousness is so much higher than ours that the quantum leap in the Creator’s mind is bigger than the quantum leaps in our minds.

I am an ascended being. I have greater creative powers than you have. Why? Because the quantum leap in my mind is bigger than the quantum leap in your mind. That means I can manifest the result in fewer steps and therefore, do it faster and it will, like you, seem like an instantaneous manifestation. But if you try to copy that with your level of consciousness as being in embodiment in an unascended sphere, you will fail and you will never be successful until you tune in to what is the quantum leap at your level of consciousness and then envision that shifting in these small leaps until you reach the goal. 

Many students, so many people, go into this manifestation and they think it has to manifest instantly. You create a treasure map, this beautiful house, this big car, and then you think that by focusing on this, by focusing on the end goal, one day it will magically manifest. How many lifetimes do you want to sit around waiting for that magic to happen? When will you tune in to the quantum leaps and visualize the gradual process whereby the lead is gradually raised in vibration until it vibrates at the level of the gold?

You, when you reach a certain level of Christhood beyond that 96th level, you can begin to at least contemplate what I have given you here. You can visualize this process and you can train your mind. You see a goal, but you do not set too high of a goal for yourself, especially in the beginning. You set a lower goal and then you visualize the steps from the current conditions to the goal. And then, when you have seen that this actually works, you can set a higher goal, but again not too high. You go a little bit at a time. 

Alchemy and the spiritual path 

What is the spiritual path all about? It can be said to be an alchemical process, as I have said in these books I mentioned, where you turn the lead of the human consciousness into the gold of the Christ consciousness. But how is that going to happen? Well, you must rise from the 48th to the 96th level, one step at a time. That is why we have given this concept of the 144 levels of consciousness. Because nobody can jump from their present level of consciousness to being ready to ascend. But you can take one step at a time, one quantum leap in consciousness at a time. That you can do. 

You can say, in a sense, that in an unascended sphere, both the sphere and the beings that are new in that sphere, they start out with a certain level of the vibration of matter and that level of vibration is defined by what is the smallest unit of change. How big is the quantum leap from one state of matter to another? And in the beginning it is very small and as the sphere is raised closer to the ascension point, it becomes longer, wider, broader. It is a bigger leap and it is the same with consciousness. You raise your consciousness, you can conceive of a bigger gap and therefore, you can manifest something quicker. 

There is, of course, more that could be said about this. And I intend to give more. But I also realize that what I can give in one installment is not the full teaching, but only a quantum leap that corresponds to a certain level of consciousness. I have given you what I see can be given at this time. For those of you who feel it resonates with you, you can take the teaching and internalize it and experiment with it. For those of you who feel that this is too abstract—”I am lost” — do not despair, just put it aside. Focus on some of the other teachings we have given in this conference or even before. See what resonates with you and then maybe at some future time, somehow the word alchemy will come back into your consciousness. And you can go back to this teaching and see how it resonates with you at that time. But if you feel it resonates with you, you can certainly take it and train your mind to see, to tune into the smallest leap of energy possible on planet earth right now. And when you have that, then you can experiment with that alchemical process of tuning in to a current state, raising it just that one step above, one leap above, then another, then another, then another, until you reach the goal you have envisioned. 

In a sense, what is the goal that you really can envision for yourself? It is that you reach a higher state of consciousness. But you also do that in increments. We have talked about 144 levels and you could then say: “Well, does that mean I can jump instantly from the 95th to the 96th level?” No, because still there is the smallest energy unit and that does not correspond to the leap from one level to the next on the scale of 144. If we had corresponded the scale of the levels of consciousness to the quantum leap, there would have been 144,000 steps, levels of consciousness, and that would have only confused people even more than 144, which I can assure you is overwhelming for many people. 

Christhood as an ongoing process

You need to recognize that going from one level to the next is not just a jump, it is a series of steps and that, once you lock into it, makes it easier. But you can transfer this to the concept of Christhood. Many people, previous ascended master students included, have thought that there is just one giant leap to Christhood. It is an all or nothing. It is one minute you are not the Christ, the other minute you are the Christ. One minute you are not awakened, the other minute you are awakened, you are enlightened, you are this, you are that. And again, the gap that you cannot cross. 

You can begin to see Christhood as an ongoing process, as we have talked about actually many times before, instead of an end result, because what is it that wants that ultimate result? It is the ego in its quest for security. It wants to think that while you are in this world, you can reach an ultimate state of consciousness where you are always right, you are never wrong. That is the dream of the ego, that is the dream of the fallen beings. 

The dream of the fallen beings is not Christhood. Christhood is an ongoing process of small steps, accelerating current conditions to the next level up, the next, the next, the next, the next, the next. And when you see it that way and lock into it, then you can accelerate your path, because you are no longer seeking a fixed goal, an ultimate state. You are realizing that the 96th level is really the beginning of the process that leads to the ascension.

But even the ascension is the beginning of your growth from that level. Perhaps you can ascend, and after having grown gradually for some time in the ascended state, you can become a Chohan. Beyond that, there are many other positions in the ascended realm that you can fill—archangels, Elohim, but even levels or positions we have not mentioned yet, because they are not really that relevant for you, because you cannot really do anything with that information from the unascended state. It only becomes relevant when you have ascended, and when you have been an ascended master for some time. 

Small quantum leap, decisive change

But what I want to give you is this, the ongoing process of quantum leaps from your current state to the Creator consciousness. But I also want to help you see that as you raise your consciousness, the leaps become bigger, the leaps become bigger. There is a point where this resonates with you, this makes sense to you. If it does not now, put it aside. But it was important to give this teaching in the physical at this time, and to project it into the collective consciousness, so that some people who have never heard about ascended masters can actually pick up on it and use it in other contexts, even the field of science.

For one day, in the golden age, science will be able to transform lead into gold, or rock into other materials that can be used for buildings that you cannot even envision today. But how will they do it? Only by accelerating vibration in quantum leaps. And that technology is waiting, and one day will be released, and at that point there will be no lack of resources, for even what is here now can be transformed into a higher state. Rare earth will no longer be rare, for they do not need to be discovered and mined and refined. They can be produced by taking ordinary dirt and raising its vibration. This knowledge is sort of hanging there, waiting for someone in the scientific community to tune in to it, and therefore, bring science a quantum leap forward. 

For, what is another realization behind the concept of a quantum leap? It is, as I said, it is not a continuous process. It is a jump from one state to another. It is a small jump, yes, but it is a decisive jump. There is no going back. The new state is fundamentally different from the old. It may look fairly similar, but it is different, as we have explained that when you rise from one level of consciousness to another, there is a certain sense of self that dies and another is reborn. And you can continue this until you reach and go beyond the 96th level, where your sense of self is reborn as a new being in Christ. That is a decisive change, and I desire all of you to experience that change, and it is for this purpose that we give all of our teachings. 

The dictation as an alchemical process

As other Masters have expressed, it is truly my great joy to interact with you. Truly, my great joy. And I hope that some of you have experienced your own sense of joy of interacting with my Presence. I do not desire you to be in my Presence, but to interact with my Presence. Can you perhaps sense that this dictation, even though slower and quieter than I sometimes give, has been an alchemical process, where I have taken you in small leaps, higher and higher, as high as you could go, as high as you were willing to go. And if you can tune into the leaps that you have personally taken, you can continue the process. 

I am not going to stop you. No ascended master will ever stop your self-transcendence. It is just a matter of what you are willing to let go of, what sense of self you are willing to let die, in order to be reborn into that higher sense of self. But when you realize that letting a self die is just a little step, it becomes much easier to let it go. 

When I speak, your minds, your senses, pick up something because that is what they are calibrated to do—changes, forms. But as I said, your physical senses cannot detect the quantum leaps. In the beginning it might be helpful to go into silence and in the silence you can perhaps detect the quantum leaps. 

Meditation with Saint Germain 

I will, as my final task here, take you through a short meditation. I will speak. I will be silent. Just so you know that the silence is intentional, not accidental. 

[silence]

I. AM. 

[silence]

I AM

[silence]

I AM

[silence]

I… AM…

[silence]

I… A…MMM

[silence]

I AM

[silence]

Is your mind waiting? 

What comes after I AM? Because you want to find something that the mind can latch onto, you want to know who or what I AM. 

Your mind wants me to say, I AM Saint Germain. But you see, Saint Germain is not what I am or who I am. Saint Germain is a name I have given to you so your outer mind has something to hold on to. But I do not see myself as Saint Germain. I do not experience myself as Saint Germain. 

I AM. 

I do not need to put words on what I am or who I am. I experience that I AM, but what I am is beyond words, beyond labels, beyond concepts. 

You might meditate on you as I AM. Nothing comes after. Just, I AM. You are the Conscious You. Pure awareness. Just, I AM. 

I am an ascended being. There is more than just pure awareness. But nevertheless, I AM without labels and words. 

For what am I as an ascended being? A process. I am constantly leaping in awareness from one level to the next. One quantum leap at a time. The entire creation, the entire world of form is constantly leaping one quantum leap at a time. That is why you are in an ascending sphere—because a critical mass of beings in your sphere have manifested that upward movement of the River of Life or the Holy Spirit.

And that is why when the upward momentum has been created in a sphere by the free will choices of a majority, that upward momentum pulls on all beings in the unascended sphere. Which means you can actually flow with it by just letting go and not resisting. And what that means is that the fallen beings can still exercise their will, but they cannot exercise it by flowing. They must actively resist, but that still satisfies the law of free will. 

Freedom is freedom to transcend, to leap. Resisting transcendence is thralldom, imprisonment. You can choose to be imprisoned, but it is far more work to stay in the prison than to leave it and flow with the River of Life. 

If you want to experience my being, my Presence, you can, but not as a static being. If you try to experience me as static, you will not reach it. You can only experience me as a process of leaps. Constant leaping and when you tune into that, I can help you make your own leaps. But if you want to put me in a mental box, based on a previous teaching for example, you cannot reach me, for I AM free to be more, ever more.

With this, I seal you in the Flame of Freedom of the Seventh Ray and I will now make a quantum leap to a higher state than what I have expressed through this release.
