John 19:23 The Seamless Robe of Christ

23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. -John 19:23King James Version (KJV)

' ''...realize thou canst continue on into that 'Eternal Body of Light' - the Seamless Robe of Christ. Then and then only, wilt thou be free from the wheel of rebirth." ' -[Great Cosmic Master] "Such is the Eternal Ascended Body of Christ," said Saint Germain..." ('Unveiled Mysteries' by Godfre Ray King, p182-183)

The wheel of rebirth refers to Reincarnation or Re-embodiment.


                 
                            Reincarnation or Re-embodiment


On this subject the Archangel Michael teaches us: In the hundreds and thousands of embodiments in which you have lived, similar to these, is the proof that mankind had forgotten their Source. (The Voice of the I AM 1942 November p4)

In the Bible there is an account of Jesus' disciples asking him if a blind man had sinned before this embodiment, or in other words a past embodiment, thus causing him to be born blind in this embodiment. ('And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?' -John 9:2 King James Version) Here is the Aquarian Gospel's account of Jesus' answer. 

The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ
by Levi H. Dowling (1844-1911)
(Transcribed from the Akashic Records)

CHAPTER 138.


1The Lord with Peter, James and John were in Jerusalem; it was the Sabbath day.
2And as they walked along the way they saw a man who could not see; he had been blind from birth.
3And Peter said, Lord, if dis­ease and imperfections all are caused by sin, who was the sinner in this case? the parents or the man him­self?
4And Jesus said, Afflictions all are partial payments on a debt, or debts, that have been made.
5There is a law of recompense that never fails, and it is summar­ized in that true rule of life:
6Whatsoever man shall do to any other man some other man will do to him.
7In this we find the meaning of the Jewish law, expressed con­cisely in the words, Tooth for a tooth; life for a life.
8He who shall injure any one in thought, or word, or deed, is judged a debtor to the law, and some one else shall, likewise, injure him in thought, or word or deed.
9And he who sheds the blood of any man will come upon the time when his blood shall be shed by man.
10Affliction is a prison cell in which a man must stay until he pays his debts unless a master sets him free that he may have a better chance to pay his debts.
11Affliction is a certain sign that one has debts to pay.
12Behold this man! Once in another life he was a cruel man, and in a cruel way destroyed the eyes of one, a fellow man.
13The parents of this man once turned their faces on a blind and helpless man, and drove him from their door.

"The path of the moon is said to typify the life of the ordinary man who clings to objects of desire and parts with them reluctantly at death. After a period in the astral and heavenly worlds he returns to earth to repeat the process. It is the path of rebirth after intervals." (p275 "The Hidden Life in Freemasonry" by C. W. Leadbeater)

"The path of fire is the path of ascension, from which there is no longer any rebirth under the law of necessity."(p275 "The Hidden Life in Freemasonry" by C. W. Leadbeater)

George King from the Aetherius Society teaches: "Reincarnation is in the eyes of the great Masters, not a theory, but an essential part of Divine Truth, an aspect which, sooner or later, must be taught by every major Religion on Earth... Not for very much longer can the orthodox leaders of the Christian Religion suppress the existence of Truth regarding reincarnation." ("The Nine Freedoms" p111)

In the book Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda (p172) we learn that; "The early Christian church accepted the doctrine of reincarnation, which was expounded by the Gnostics and by numerous church fathers, including Clement of Alexandria, the celebrated Origen (both 3rd century), and St. Jerome (5th century). The doctrine was first declared a heresy in A.D. 553 by the Second Council of Constantinople. At that time many Christians thought the doctrine of reincarnation afforded man too ample a stage of time and space to encourage him to strive for immediate salvation. …The truth is that man reincarnates on earth until he has consciously regained his status as a son of God."

Mighty Victory teaches us: "...the masses of mankind, until they are taught this Law, do not have permanent Victory! ...Like a pendulum they swing and swing and swing, and never stabilize anywhere; because they cannot, until they know That Glorious Word "I AM"; understand where the "Mighty I AM Presence" is; what It is and what It can do for them. Only then can they see, know and accept the Reality of the Mighty Ascended Masters; the Great Cosmic Beings... Until they know the "Beloved Mighty I AM Presence" and Its Cosmic Law, they are not stabilized within Permanent Happiness nor Perfection." ('The Voice of the I AM' 1951 June p28-29)
