From Knowledge to Being: Radical invitation to live from your Christ-consciousness (Part 3)

The Radical Invitation: Living from Your Christ-Consciousness

In a world that teaches us to look outward for authority and intercession, a radical and liberating voice rings out: that of Jesus himself. He challenges the familiar concept of intercession and shows us a more direct way. “Do not ask me anything,” he says in John 16:23, adding in verse 26, “I will not pray for you.”

Why would He say this? Because He wants to shift our gaze – from people, religion and buildings to the place of the "single eye" (Matthew 6:22-23). This apparent refusal is not an act of rejection, but the ultimate invitation: an invitation to discover that the kingdom, the Christ nature, the Higher Consciousness, already dwells within you. Jesus himself confirmed this with the words: "Neither shall they say, See here, or see there: for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21).

This is the crux of the matter: you don't need to ask Jesus "to come into your heart"; he asks YOU to come into God's heart – that is, the Higher Consciousness within you. In the intimate conversation during the Last Supper, he reveals the depth of this unity: "On that day you will realise that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you" (John 14:20). This is the mystical reality to which he called – a union that transcends all external mediation.

The reason is as simple as it is revolutionary: "The Father himself does love you" (John 16:27). The universal, cosmic goodness of God manifests itself in you as higher consciousness, and you have direct access to it. So why do you need an intermediary? Jesus does not point to himself as the goal, but as the signpost to your own divine core.

From Knowledge to Being: the transformation of Consciousness

This liberation from external mediation brings us to the deepest level of our spiritual journey.

What is the mystical difference between 'knowing God' and 'being like God'?

Imagine reading a biography about Mozart. You know his life and recognise his music. This is knowing about Mozart – valuable but external. Now you go to a concert and the music touches your soul. You feel the genius. This is knowing Mozart's essence – a spiritual experience. But what if you climb onto the piano yourself and, from some inexplicable place, let Mozart's music flow? You are no longer a listener, but both composer and instrument at the same time. This is 'being as'. This is the Christ experience.

Jesus was not someone who spoke about God—he was the music itself. His message was never, “Worship Me as an external saviour.” His invitation was, “Wake up and realise that you share the same Source. The Father and I are one. And you—yes, YOU!—are in Us” (John 17:21).

What does this 'Being' look like in practice?

‘Knowing that God is within you’ can remain a concept. ‘Being like God’ is actual realisation:

1. Transformed Prayer: The invitation is not to stop praying, but to fundamentally transform the nature of prayer. Jesus does not teach us to pray to him as an external idol, but to go to the Father in union with the anointing ('christos'). He models this in the Lord's Prayer: "Pray then like this: Our Father in heaven... Thy kingdom come... Thy will be done..." (Matthew 6:9-10). Prayer becomes an expression of the Divine within us.

   
   

2. Accepting responsibility: Knowing says, "I don't need the church." Being says, "Because God is in me, and in everyone else, I am now responsible for embodying compassion, forgiveness and justice. I don't wait for an institution to do it. I am the 'church', the temple where Christ manifests himself" (1 Corinthians 3:16-17).

   
   

3. Intercession that transforms: In the old paradigm, you prayed to Christ Jesus to intercede for someone else. In the new paradigm of 'being', you realise: I am the channel of Christ's love. My loving attention to another, my compassion, my silent presence in which I recognise the Divine in the other – that is the most powerful form of 'intercession'!

Religious structures feel threatened by this because institutions thrive on the myth of separation. As long as you believe that you need a priest, guru or ritual to reach God, you need an institution. But when you wake up and realise: "I am the temple. The Christ in me greets the Christ in you," authority shifts from outside to inside.

Jesus did not come to found a new religion, but to spread a virus of divine consciousness. "You will do greater things than I" (John 14:12), he said, pointing not to himself as the end point, but as a signpost to your own divine core.

The Journey is not about going somewhere, but about waking up to who you already are. It is the shift from "Lord Jesus, help me" to "Father, thank You that, through the realisation of the Christ within me, I am the peace, wisdom and love that this situation needs."

May this thought be an invitation to your personal journey of discovery. What would it mean to not pray to Jesus today, but to live and speak from unity with God's Spirit?

This is not heresy. This is the hidden, mystical core of the gospel that waits to be lived by each of us — not as dogma to believe, not as experience to know, but as ultimate reality to be.

So here is my radical invitation: live from your Christ-consciousness!

I wish you many blessings and deep insights on your path.
