Matthew 12:36 The Day of Judgment

³⁶ But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. -Matthew 12:36 Bible, King James Version

The Higher Mental Body is our first Higher Self which is between our I AM Presence and our physical body. "The outer self of every Life Stream must face the judgement of the Higher Mental Body and the Ascended Host; and that determines where the embodiments will be in the future, or whether the Ascension is possible now!" -The Beloved Messenger ('The Voice of the I AM' 1946 February p18)

Our Higher Self, Overself or Soul resides above us rather than within us as our individual spirit does. This Individualized Presence of God gives us Life via a stream of Light which flows down into our Crown Chakra at the top of our head. When this Holy Spirit descends into our physical body like a dove we become a  Godman or Master because we are now one with God.

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.
