Ascended Master MORE through Kim Michaels, May 21, 2026. This dictation was given at the conference in Kazakhstan: Co-creating with the ascended masters on the seven rays.

I AM the Ascended Master MORE, and it is my great privilege to open this conference and this webinar. We are grateful that you have come together, come together here below and therefore, been willing to come together with us above so we can form that figure-eight flow from above to below and back to above. For if there is not the return flow, then, of course, the creative flow is not complete. This is an idea that I will begin with.

A constant flow of energy from above

Co-creation means what? Co-creation means that there is a constant flow of energy from the spiritual realm into the unascended sphere. This is the gift from the ascended level that comes ultimately from the Creator flowing through all the levels of the spiritual realm into the sixth sphere and then into the seventh unascended sphere. And in order to flow into the unascended sphere, it flows through us the ascended masters, who are working with this unascended sphere. And of course, when it comes to planet earth, it flows through those of us who have chosen to work with this planet.

It is, contrary to what some people might think, not a duty or an obligation that we have taken on. It is our joy. It is our mission. It is our reason for being, at least at the moment, to be the open doors, to be the facilitators for this flow, to flow through us into the unascended sphere. When you look at the ascended spheres, there is also a constant flow of energy coming from higher spheres into the lower ascended spheres. But in an ascended sphere, those who are at the lowest level, they receive the energy from the higher, they multiply the talents given and therefore, the energy flows back up closing the figure-eight flow.

In an unascended sphere, this can also happen, and it certainly does happen on natural planets, where the inhabitants of a natural planet are receiving the energy from the ascended realm, from the ascended masters working with their planet, they multiply it by co-creating and then the energy rises up, closing the figure-eight flow. And as explained by Jesus in his parables about the talents, the servants who receive different numbers of talents, those who multiply the energy are receiving more because when the energy comes back up, when the figure-eight flow is complete, then we can multiply again and give more and this is how a sphere gradually ascends in vibration until it reaches that critical point where the entire sphere can be raised from the unascended to the ascended state. And this is a momentous occasion beyond anything you can imagine on earth.

Multiplying the talents while in separation

What happens on an unnatural planet is, of course, that most people, because they are in this consciousness of seeing themselves as separate beings, they cannot close the figure-eight flow. Now, you may be tempted to think that this means that they cannot multiply the talents. This is not necessarily the case, so we need to make a distinction here. It is possible for people in separation to still receive some energy and to actually multiply that energy. But the energy stays in the unascended sphere because they are multiplying the energy for self-centered purposes. Now, you may think this is wrong, but it is actually not completely wrong because they are at least doing something with the energy.

There are other people who are in separation who have become pacified to the point where they have no ambition, they have no real desires other than to live life in a certain way as they can see it. They have in their minds created a limitation where they visualize, without being conscious of it of course: “This is how you live. This is how you live as a person who lives here in our village, in our town. You go to work, you find a job, you have a family, you have a house, but you just want to be comfortable.” You are not really seeking to go anywhere, and this does not multiply the talents which means, of course, that they receive less and less from above according to the law, but it also means that the energies sort of become stagnant. It is like water that sits still, there is no movement in it, and it gradually becomes stagnant.

At least those people who are multiplying the energy for selfish purposes, they are still doing something with it. You might say that if you are, for example, seeking to build a business empire because you have a personal ambition of being a powerful businessperson, being very rich, having a big house and a yacht and this and that. You may say this is completely self-centered, what drives the person. But still, in order to build that empire, the person needs other people who cooperate and they are then also benefiting from this. And therefore, you can actually have for example, a large corporation that is at least multiplying the energies given. So this is not a complete loss from an ascended master perspective, because at least the energies are doing something to raise the level of the earth.

Breaking stagnation in society

You look back a few hundred years, and you had in some societies these feudal societies that we have talked about before, where you had a relatively stagnant population level. The population could not really grow beyond a certain level. Most of the people were born as peasants, and they lived their entire lives as peasants. They did not really dare to imagine or envision that there could be something more than that. And then you had the noblemen living in their castles, they owned all the land, the people were their slaves, but they also lived a relatively stagnant lifestyle because they could not even envision that they could have more than their comfortable castles and their servants.

But then there was, at least in some parts of the world, with the industrialized era that began, there was a new form of energy that started where you had these industrialists who had the ambition to build something. And they did. So even though this was in all ways a primitive level, a very self-centered level where they still exploited the workers, still there was movement. There was a raising of the level of wealth, the level of the people’s living standard, and this also led to a raising of the population level in countries, and it created a new dynamic. You look at some of these very stagnant agricultural societies that can exist, and still in some parts of the world exist in the same level today that they did hundreds of years ago. That is an example of people who are not multiplying the energies.

Then you see there are other areas in the world where there is industrialization and where there is growth. The people are becoming more affluent. Even the workers, at least for a time, were becoming more affluent. Now it has stagnated again in some areas, even though there are other areas that are growing. But still, you look at the level of the industrialized nations, and it is in all ways a higher level than these old agricultural societies. What I am pointing out here is that even people who are in separation below the 48th level of consciousness can still multiply the energies, and this also creates growth. It is not, of course, the growth that Saint Germain envisions for the golden age, but it is certainly better than stagnation because stagnation will eventually lead to deflation.

A lack of clear vision of what comes next

What now is it that can bring even the industrialized nations to a higher level? You can see when you look at these societies today, you can see that many of these nations have reached a fairly high level. You have many of the nations in Europe, some here in Southeast Asia, Korea, Japan. You have Australia, New Zealand. You have Canada, not so much the United States, even though you have certainly seen a growth in the United States, but it has started stagnating over several decades. But what you see in these nations is that many of them, they do not have a clear vision of where to go. They have sort of gone into an almost reactive mode where they feel they have achieved a high level, a satisfactory level in some ways, and now they are just trying to deal with problems that come up. There are some challenges, we will deal with those. But they do not really have a clear vision of what is the next level for these societies, what is actually the beginning of the golden age for these nations.

A new awareness of spiritual energy flow

What I am pointing out to you is that with the industrialization, a new era of growth began. This was in large part sponsored by Saint Germain, who sponsored science, the mechanical approach to science where you see the universe as a machine and you look for how you can make that machine more efficient, do something for you by machines rather than animal or human power. This was clearly a step up. It was so to speak, setting the stage for the emergence of golden age societies. But what is it that can take these societies to the next level up where they really start manifesting the golden age? Well, there are two things. First of all, there is a necessity that a growing number of people in these societies will become spiritually aware, will become aware that there is a spiritual realm beyond the material, that it is possible for human beings to interact with that realm and that they, of course, can gain a personal advantage from interacting with that realm.

You, of course, as ascended master students fall into that category, but do not overlook the fact that many, many other people around the world also have accepted that basic awareness: There is a spiritual realm beyond the material. There are beings in that realm that can give teachings. I can interact in some way with those beings because this is what really closes the flow, the figure-eight flow.” That there are some people who become consciously aware that they are conscious, they are able to do something, because inside yourself you are receiving a constant stream of energy from the spiritual realm. Then you do something with that energy and then you become consciously aware that by sending the energy back up, you close the figure-eight flow and thereby you receive more from the ascended realm.

In other words, by sending the energy up, you are not losing the energy. It is not like we of the ascended masters need to have that return current from you. I do not need energy from the unascended sphere because I can receive unlimited amounts of energy from the ascended spheres above me. But the law requires that you have to send back before you can receive more. This is, in a sense, what Jesus said 2,000 years ago: “He who is willing to lose his life for my sake shall receive eternal life.” When you are willing to become consciously aware, as Jesus also said: “I can of my own self do nothing,” meaning, “I cannot produce the energy that allows me to do something. I am receiving that energy from the spiritual realm. But then I do something with it and then I am willing to give it back up.” That is how you demonstrate that you are not using the energy for selfish purposes, by being willing to give it back up. And that then closes the circle, closes the figure-eight flow, whereby we can multiply what comes back up and you will receive more.

In other words, many have looked at Jesus’ statement that you have to be willing to lose your life for his sake and they have thought that means you have to lose something. Like some Christians have thought: “I have to give up a worldly life, I have to give up my worldly ambitions, and I have to retreat to a monastery and focus my life on prayer.” But that is not what it means. It means you have to be willing to give it back up in order to demonstrate you are not like the people in separation who are only multiplying the energy to gain something for themselves. Yes, they may benefit others, as I said, but their primary driving force is to gain something for themselves. You are demonstrating you are not like them and by being willing to give it up you will receive the multiplication and when you experience that, you realize giving up does not mean losing anything. You are giving up to gain more. But again, of course, not to use it for selfish purposes.

This was the one factor, that a growing number of people become spiritually aware in these affluent nations and this is, of course, part of Saint Germain’s plan for releasing technology. Because if you look at these agricultural societies where the peasants have to work from early morning to late night just to sustain a physical living, there is not much attention and energy left over for these people to focus on spiritual growth. But by creating these modern affluent nations many people have spare time. Yes, of course, many of them are spending their spare time watching pornography on the internet or drinking beer, but that is not the point. There is room in these societies for people who will have a more spiritual focus such as you have all demonstrated and many millions of other people have demonstrated over the past many decades. This is the one aspect: a growing number of spiritually aware people who are becoming gradually more aware, raising their consciousness.

Raising awareness of the potential of the human mind

But the other aspect that can bring societies into the golden age is a raising awareness of the value, the potential of the human mind. What you see today is that there is a growing awareness even in scientific circles that science, the science of even physics has reached a level where it is stagnating. For decades, scientists have believed that they were coming closer and closer to this pot of gold at the end of the scientific rainbow namely the theory of everything. First it was string theory, then there are other theories, the God particle. But they were always thinking that the major discovery is right around the corner and then we will understand how the material universe works in an entirely material way. But this has reached a certain level and it has not gone beyond it for decades despite what many scientists expected.

But there is a growing number of scientists who are beginning to realize that this must mean that the approach they are taking is incomplete. And there is again a growing number among these scientists who are beginning to realize that this is because it has become obvious that even hardcore physical science can no longer ignore consciousness. It is, of course, a deep irony that materialistic science in its attempt to overcome the superstition of religion decided that in order to be objective you had to ignore consciousness. But this is what has now begun to crack this materialistic doctrine which was considered as infallible as medieval Catholics considered the doctrines of the Catholic church about the earth being the center of the universe.

They have begun to realize, many scientists, that this is no longer sustainable because it is an irony that what allows us to study the material universe is that we are conscious beings. How long can we think we can actually understand the universe if we are not understanding our own minds? In other words, if a scientist is using a traditional telescope to study the heavens and then he realizes that there are radio telescopes that can discover something that you can never see with an optical telescope, then the scientist must realize that we could never gain a complete understanding of the heavens by only using optical telescopes. The same way, we can never attain a complete understanding of the material universe unless we incorporate consciousness, unless we understand the very instrument we are using to study the material universe because if we were not conscious, how could we do science?

What can take societies beyond the current level is an understanding of the potential, an increasing understanding of the potential of the human mind. Saint Germain has talked before about the difference between what you have now, which is force-based technology, and what he calls non-force-based technology. But this non-force-based technology cannot be achieved until there is a raising of the understanding of the human mind. Because how are you going to have technology that is not force-based? It cannot be entirely mechanical. It must involve the human mind and thus, if you are trying to exclude the human mind from science, you are hitting a glass ceiling of your own making. And this is the understanding that is beginning to spread, that you can envision will spread even more. You can make calls for it if you feel this is part of your Divine plan, but you can also open yourself up to these ideas.

A new understanding of a neutral observer

I am, of course, using your chakras to broadcast this into the collective awareness so that those scientists who have already begun to realize this will become more clear in their awareness so that others who are not yet consciously willing to acknowledge this will get over that hump where they can consciously say: “I see now, we need to study consciousness. We need to understand consciousness.” And it is really very simple, but it leads on to many, many ramifications because what scientists need to do in order to incorporate consciousness in scientific studies is they have to be willing to look at this assumption made hundreds of years ago that if we create mechanical processes, mechanical scientific methods that exclude any influence from the mind, then we will be objective. And that is what needs to be questioned.

And in a sense, this very much ties in with what we have had you do over these last several years, where we have encouraged you to work on your psychology, and we have also explained to you about Christhood and Christ discernment because you cannot become objective, even as a scientist, unless you have what we call Christ discernment. A scientist does not need to call it Christ discernment, but scientists need to recognize that the human mind has the potential, the low potential, to be completely subjective, completely self-centered but the human mind has a potential to become neutral in how it views the world. The goal of a scientist is, in a sense, to become a neutral observer and this does not mean, as scientists believe today, that the scientist is not influencing the experiment. You can influence the experiment, but still be neutral, and you can influence the experiment and not be neutral.

And in fact, the dream that a scientist can perform an experiment without influencing it is a dream with limitations and that is what quantum physics has proven but really can be transferred to all sciences. Because by choosing scientific methods that seek to eliminate the influence of the mind, that is also influencing the scientific process. There is no way to conduct science without influencing it with the mind. And therefore, those scientists who are completely convinced that the scientific paradigm is correct, they are in a way as biased as the medieval Catholic theologians who thought that the Catholic Church’s doctrines are infallible. It is a bias superimposed upon science, but the real purpose of science was actually to free the scientific process from human biases.

A conscious AI?

This is the understanding that has begun to spread, that will spread much more. And as you hold the vision for it, make the calls for it, it will spread faster and this will take society to a much higher level and a different form of technology. Now in a sense, you can see that as is often the case, technology itself forces people to re-evaluate many things. For example, artificial intelligence. Right now, nobody really knows how to deal with it and part of the problem with this entire debate is that materialistic scientists believe that an artificial intelligence has the potential to become conscious. But those scientists who are beginning to go beyond the materialistic paradigm, they can already see that a computer, an artificial intelligence, will never become conscious as a human being is. It can approach some level of consciousness as a passive state of consciousness where you are reacting, but it will not become self-aware as is the higher potential of the human mind. In a sense, the whole emergence of artificial intelligence as a technology is forcing a re-evaluation of what is consciousness?

A new creative approach

Is it just an epiphenomenon of materialistic processes? Is it just that when a structure like the brain becomes complex enough, consciousness emerges? Or is there more to consciousness? And of course there is more. That is what the spiritual people on one hand and the most advanced scientists, not on the other hand, but together actually, are beginning to realize. And that is what will take societies beyond industrialization which was based on the mechanical view of the world. You are, so to speak, trying to create, scientists who are working with AI, are trying to create intelligence in a mechanical way. But you cannot. And only when there is a critical mass of people who become aware that you cannot create intelligence, consciousness, self-awareness in a mechanical way will societies grow to the next level. New technologies will emerge, but first of all, a new approach because what is it that is needed?

What is it that is needed is a re-evaluation of the purpose of it all. I said that many of these modern societies are stagnating. That is because they do not have a clear vision. What is the purpose for our development, our growth? What is our goal? What are we moving towards? It is like: “Yes, we want to be more affluent. Yes, we want to be more organized. Yes, we want to have less disease. We want to solve various problems.” But what is the purpose? There is no purpose in the mechanistic, materialistic paradigm. And that is what needs to emerge and what is emerging and what will emerge. And that is what will take society to another level.

What is the purpose of life?

Now, what does all this talk have to do with the topic of this conference co-creating with the ascended masters? Well, how can you co-create unless you are aware of what you are co-creating with? You must be co-creating with something or rather, someone. You see, the problem with traditional religion is that although it recognizes some God beyond the material world, it is usually the remote God up there in the sky or it is the wish-fulfilling God. You sacrifice some food in the temple and you get good luck in your daily life. And then materialistic science has gotten rid of that God but put nothing in its stead so in materialism there is no purpose. Therefore, there is no co-creation. There can be nobody you are co-creating with. And the reason why there needs to be this shift in awareness is that you need to ask yourself if there is to be a purpose for life, what could that purpose be?

Can we ourselves define the purpose of life? In a sense, you look at these affluent materialistic societies now that have been emerging over the last two or three centuries. Why are they in a dead end? Why have they reached this level? Because they have no purpose beyond themselves. There is no co-creation there. Even though you have in democratic societies this idea that human beings have rights that no force on earth has the right to take away, not even their own government, you still fail to ask the question: “Where do these rights come from?” There is a need for an awareness that you can actually think about spiritual beings without looking at it through the filter of traditional religions, of the angry God in the sky or the wish-fulfilling God in the temple, but approach it in a much more universal, neutral way.

There must be some mind that is beyond the human mind, and it is that mind that has defined what science, for example, calls the cosmological constants that define the delicate balance of the universe. You know probably that there are many of these constants that if they were just a little bit different the universe you know could not exist. What was the intelligence that defined these constants in a precise way they are defined so that your universe can exist? And that then can open up for this idea that perhaps there is an intelligence that has a vision for where our societies could go, what could be the next step? And perhaps if we discovered that vision and aligned ourselves with it we could reach an entirely new level. And the same of course holds true for you as spiritually aware people.

What does it mean to co-create with the ascended masters?

You know because we have given you all of these teachings about separation and the duality consciousness that when you go into separation you can still receive energy, you can still do something with it, but you are not co-creating, you are de-creating. And your creation becomes subject to what we have called the second law of thermodynamics or the destruction of Shiva, the destroyer of Shiva, and it breaks down gradually. What you can begin to contemplate, certainly during this conference but also after, is that many of you have reached that level close to the 96th level. Some of you have gone a little bit beyond. And this is where you need to become conscious of co-creation. What does it mean that you are co-creating with the ascended masters? And there is no one answer to this question. It is something to contemplate because it is an awareness that must come in stages.

Raising your consciousness through experimentation

But the beginning of this awareness is really what is embodied in the First Ray qualities. And you have the traditional view of the First Ray as power and will, but I have said before that it is really the creative drive and the creative drive is first of all an experimental process. This is what in a sense science has gotten right because if you look at the Catholic Church in the Middle Ages, when the first scientists started to emerge, they took the approach that we have revelation through the Vicar of Christ from above, our doctrines are therefore infallible, and they would have said if you are co-creating, you have to follow Catholic doctrine to the letter. But that of course is not co-creation. And the missing dimension here is that traditional religions are focused on something they call salvation, where some external force, Jesus coming back or whatever it may be, comes and saves you and takes you to heaven. But the image we have given you over decades in this dispensation and even in previous dispensations is you are the one who qualifies for your salvation by raising your consciousness.

How do you raise your consciousness? Do you think that you can tune in to the ascended masters and we will tell you how to raise your consciousness or we will raise your consciousness for you? Nay. Because our purpose for interacting with our students is not to save you, not to do everything for you. Our purpose is to raise you up to become ascended masters as we are. We are seeking to help you go through the same process that we have gone through in order to qualify for our ascension. And what is that process? You start with a lower level of consciousness, and you raise your level of consciousness gradually, step by step. How do you raise your consciousness? By experimenting based on the level of consciousness you have now.

There are so many students who have thought that you have to find some magical thing, some philosopher’s stone, some holy grail, and when you find it in this hidden cave that you reach after solving many riddles and puzzles, when you find this holy grail and drink the water, you will instantly be in a higher state of consciousness. But that is missing the entire point of the process because only by gradually raising your awareness do you really internalize the growth. If you were to find that cave that has the cup of Christ and you were to drink the water, how would it raise your consciousness? How would you feel that you had attained mastery and therefore, you could shift that final step of the ascension where you shift from seeing yourself as an unascended being to an ascended being. How could you do that unless you have already shifted many times and the final shift is just another shift. It is not some miraculous event.

The experimental process of mastering your own mind

Our goal is to help you develop mastery. But mastery of what? Some magical process? No. Your own mind. What am I as an ascended master? What do I have mastery of? Do I have some magical abilities to manifest things on earth? Could I magically transform the earth? Could Saint Germain magically transform society and manifest the golden age? Nay. I have only one type of mastery. Mastery of my own mind. That mastery, of course, enables me to be much more conscious of receiving energy from a higher realm, giving it on, creating structures with it. But it is the mastery of my own mind that is the difference between me and you. I have a higher mastery of my own mind than you do, but my goal is to raise you up till you have the same mastery of your own mind.

And again, how do you attain mastery of your own mind? By experimenting with a co-creative process based on your present level of consciousness, seeing the results, but also seeing your reaction to it, resolving these subconscious selves that are causing you to react, then rising to the next level, then experimenting again. It is an experimental process. You are not born with mastery. This is the fallacy of Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, other religions, where they idolize the founder. Oh, Jesus was so special because of the virgin birth, and he was God from the very beginning. Look at the tales of the Buddha. His birth was miraculous. His entire life had all of these miracles. They idolize, but you are not born with mastery. You are not created with mastery. You attain it by experimenting.
