Individual I AM Presence
The Beloved Messenger teaches us: "It is so important... to hold the Great Calm Realization of the Assisting Host of Ascended Masters... It is necessary to train the outer self to remember always in whatever you do, that It is the Sacred Fire doing these things, and not the physical form... Jesus constantly reminded the people- "I of Myself can do nothing. It is the Father Within that doeth the Works." ('The Voice of the I AM' December 1946 p14-15)
When Jesus spoke of His Father in Heaven He was referring to His Higher Self or I AM Presence.
The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ by Levi H. Dowling
CHAPTER 8.
Elihu’s lessons to Jesus' mother in Egypt
1Again Elihu met his pupils in the sacred grove and said,5There are two selfs; the higher and the lower self.
6The higher self is human spirit clothed with soul, made in the form of God.
7The lower self, the carnal self, the body of desires, is a reflexion of the higher self, distorted by the murky ethers of the flesh.
8The lower self is an illusion, and will pass away; the higher self is God in man, and will not pass away.
9The higher self is the embodiment of truth; the lower self is truth reversed, and so is falsehood manifest.
10The higher self is justice, mercy, love and right; the lower self is what the higher self is not.
11The lower self breeds hatred, slander, lewdness, murders, theft, and everything that harms; the higher self is mother of the virtues and the harmonies of life.
12The lower self is rich in promises, but poor in blessedness and peace; it offers pleasure, joy and satisfying gains; but gives unrest and misery and death.
13It gives men apples that are lovely to the eye and pleasant to the smell; their cores are full of bitterness and gall.
14If you would ask me what to study I would say, yourselfs; and when you well had studied them, and then would ask me what to study next, I would reply, yourselfs.
15He who knows well his lower self, knows the illusions of the world, knows of the things that pass away; and he who knows his higher self, knows God; knows well the things that cannot pass away.
16Thrice blessed is the man who has made purity and love his very own; he has been ransomed from the perils of the lower self and is himself his higher self.
