The fun has started! Your awakening is, for all of you, unbelievably imminent! Yes, you may well be thinking “Here we go again, setting ourselves up for another enormous disappointment!” However, this is most definitely not the case. Please prepare for the most amazing event ever to occur in humanity’s long and frequently most unhappy history. You are at the tipping point, your awakening is inescapable, divinely assured, and consequently there is absolutely no possibility of your slipping backwards into the mire that is the illusion.
I am sure that this statement is, at the least, rather unsettling for many of you because there have been so many apparent delays and disappointments over the years, as you have continued to determinedly and lovingly hold your Light on high as wayshowers intending to lead humanity forward to its spiritual destiny, to awaken into its natural and blissful state – Love, Oneness with one another and with your heavenly Father, your Source, God.
After so many “false starts” it would be amazing if enormous numbers of Red Flags did not arise in your minds as you read or listen to these words. Be ready to drop them because your awakening into eternal joy will erase all the fears that caused you to raise them. There is no need for them because you are coming Home to Reality – Oneness with God.
Since the moment of your apparent, and I stress the word “apparent,” separation from God you have been on the path Home to Him – just like the prodigal son in Jesus’ story or parable in The New Testament. And, just like the prodigal son in that parable, you have all, from time to time and from human incarnation to human incarnation experienced the uplifting ups and the catastrophic downs of this illusory journey. But, as in that story, when you finally arrive Home, dishevelled, depressed, and fearful, your Father is already running to meet and greet you with His loving arms WIDE OPEN! He KNOWS that you are coming, and He calls immediately for a great celebration to welcome you Home.
He has missed you, and your imminent return brings Him immeasurable joy. And, of course, your joy on awakening will overwhelm you initially, until you remember where you are, and recognize that you have returned Home to where you belong, at One with Him, and realize that the ecstasy, the infinite joy, and the complete freedom from fear and anxiety that now enfold you are what you left behind when you engaged in the illusory experience of separation.
Until you experienced that illusory state you did not know, and could not possibly have imagined fear, suffering, and anxiety. And on your return Home – your awakening into your natural state as a divine and fully conscious child of God – all that has caused you pain and suffering will be gone as though it had never existed, and, as you will clearly understand when you awaken, it never did!
Humanity’s return to its natural fully awakened and fully conscious state has never been in doubt, except in your severely limited illusory minds where doubt and anxiety is endless. You are all divine beings created by God to enjoy eternal life. No deaths and rebirths as humans were planned for you, just an eternal life of ecstatic happiness eternally connected to your Father Who’s joy was increased by the joy that each of you experienced.
But you developed the “teenage syndrome”, the intense desire to demonstrate to your heavenly Father your independence from Him and your ability to live happily and freely without his guidance, interference, or oversight, and so you chose to build and enter into the illusion. It was like drawing a very detailed picture that tells a story, and then imagining yourself within it, altering the plot as your interests and desires changed. Finally you became so absorbed in this unreal world that you could no longer see that it was unreal and illusory, and you forgot that you could adjust the story line. You forgot that the Reality in which you had been created as children of God, and in which you were sublimely happy, was your true and eternal Home and heritage. In fact to make the illusion seem even more real you erased all your memories of your heavenly Home.
You were lost! And so you began a spiritual quest to find the supreme intelligence whom you were convinced had created this world of pain and suffering in which you were trapped. It now seemed that you were helpless and weak beings whom the imaginary and vengeful god that you had invented could destroy at any moment. You believed that you were unwilling victims in an insane and frightening world in which this vindictive and powerful being had confined you in order to control you and have you pay him obeisance, and then take delight in watching you suffering the punishments that he imposed on you. Or, you believed that this physical world was all that existed, that god was an illusion, and that this life was your one and only chance to experience life.
Holding either of these beliefs left you with two choices:
1) Recognize that as a human of limited abilities and intelligence you needed to find God, a loving father, a superior and infinite intelligence who had obviously created the world, and beseech it to save you from the pain and suffering that you were undergoing – which is a result of your unwise choice to build and enter into the illusion and then forget that you had done so. But of course you were unaware that you were the cause of your pain and suffering because you believed that God had imposed them on you to punish you for your sins. You then spent your time beseeching this infinite intelligence to have mercy on you, to save you from the horrors that you believed He had created to punish you for your sins, sins that you had invented and judged as unacceptable to Him.
2) Enjoy the illusion and experience every possibility that it offered you to have fun, to develop your egos and your independence, irrespective of the results that that unthinking and self-centered behavior might have on others. Within the illusion, each individual found himself to be the absolute center of his own personal universe, able to claim that god, if he believed in a god, was on his side and that anyone else with whom he engaged was there purely to be used and abused as necessary to advance his personal ambitions and agendas, because this would place him in good standing with the god he had invented to support him. And any pain or suffering that you experienced was as a direct result of others, your enemies, whom your god wanted you to destroy!
Neither of these choices makes any sense at all because God is Love, unconditionally accepting of all of His children, and He is constantly calling to them to awaken into Reality where their eternal joy is assured and guaranteed.
God is Love. You were all created in Love, from Love, and by Him for eternal joy. Anything that is not in alignment with Love is unreal, non-existent, and all that you have to do, need to do, is to let go of and completely release any aspects of yourselves that are not in alignment with Love – judgment, conflict, non-acceptance, attack or defence, dismissal, disrespect, intolerance – and open yourselves to accept and receive the abundant flow of Love that surrounds you in every moment, allowing It to completely suffuse you. When you do that the Love that fills each one of you expands through you and embraces everyone else in the infinite field of Love where there is only the One.
Truly, you are blessed and honored, because here in the spiritual realms we see very clearly the trials you have very courageously chosen to undergo, and the difficult lessons that you have chosen to learn and which are absolutely essential steps on your path to awakening. And now the time for learning, for appreciating and dealing with the difficulties that your chosen paths have been constantly presenting you is drawing to a well-deserved moment of closure.
You, the Light bearers and wayshowers have completed all the lessons that humanity chose and needed to learn, and you have passed your “exams” with flying colors. Continue your daily meditation, prayer, and contemplation practices as, through your heartfelt and God driven intent, you bring humanity to the point of awakening. Your reward is your release from the limitations and suffering with which the illusion presents all who enter into it, and that release is close. As you spend time daily intending that humanity awaken, the power of that uncompromising intent ensures that it is achieved. Your demanding task is complete, so sit back, relax into your quiet inner sanctuaries, and enjoy the awakening as it happens, moment by moment.
With so very much love, Saul.
Excellent degree of consciousness that you tapped into here, John.
Thank you for it.
Where’s the tear icon when I need it? Thank you.
Hi John – First, I want to say that I always enjoy your messages from Saul and Jesus. Also, I am very far along the path (so to speak). I realize there isn’t really a path and that the truth of who I AM has never not been “awake”. The one that I AM (we are) has always been awake and enlightened.
However, most of us “think” we are the ego body-mind personality. Not true of course, but a believable illusion for the false self (ego). Understanding this, I have a couple questions I hope you don’t mind posing to Saul or Jesus.
Question #1: I’m wondering if you could have Saul and/or Jesus define what they mean by “awakening”. The word is tossed about rather casually with much of the channeled material I’ve seen over the past 6 years. I believe in most channelings, they are typically using the word “awakening” to indicate a person who comes into the awareness that what the media, government, leaders, politicians, education, religion have been selling for all these millenia is untrue. That there is something more. In other words, that an “awakened” person is aware of the onset of the “New Earth” and new ways of being. However, this is not TRUE awakening as the term would be used by say a Buddhist, Advaitist, Sufi, Hindu, etc. A truly awakened being has literally shifted dimensions. The “me” they once thought they were is completely dropped. And the “others” they once thought existed also vanish. All becomes one…literally. Having studied this for some time, I’ve come to understand that this can be a highly disorienting and debilitating time for the newly “awakened”. Often times, if left to their own devices, they can’t perform even the simplest 3D tasks like seeking food, cleaning/hygiene, navigating about, reading etc. All these seemingly simple tasks must literally be re-learned within the new state of awakened awareness. Basically, it can take 3-5 years (sometimes longer) to acclimate to the illusory 3D world again. The bliss and peace of the inner world (aka “heaven”) is so enticing and amazing that the person doesn’t wish to interact any longer with the “outer reality”. So my question is, which “type” of awakening are Saul and Jesus referring to?
Question #2: It is my understanding that awakening is an “individual” event for the foreseeable future. Perhaps for the next 20 – 60 years (3 generations). Your channelings make it sound like EVERYBODY is going to suddenly awaken at the same time. I’ve read many, many other channelings that suggest this is simply not the case. Most suggest an “event” of some sort within the next 2 years or so where everybody has a massive spiritual experience. The timing and duration will be unique for each individual. Call it revelation, an opening to truth, a glimpse of the higher realms, or whatever. The point is, those that are well along the path may indeed fully awaken during or shortly after this “event”. But only those that are aware and have been on the spiritual path as seekers…and/or…those that have always naturally been tuned to this vibration. The point is, that MOST people have not yet progressed this far spiritually. A full-on, permanent awakening for them would be most disturbing, perhaps catastrophic and deadly because they would be so confused and disoriented. Quite simply they would be unprepared for this. I’m curious what Saul and/or Jesus might have to say about this.
I’m open to any and all responses. I am merely sharing my understanding having studied many great mystical traditions (Buddhism, Hinduism, Sufism, Advaita, Zen, Christian mysticism, etc.) as well as studying and practicing much of the “new age” material that’s been out for the last 30 years or so (Saint Germain “I AM discources, ACIM, WoM, Abraham, Bashar, and several dozen more). As well as reading the majority of modern channelings that are issued on blogs or via email from a whole host of people.
In short, I’d like to know how Saul & Jesus are defining “awakening” and I’d like to know what they mean when they say the entirety of humanity’s awakening is imminent? Is 50 or 60 years imminent to them or are they suggesting a far shorter time frame? Or, are they referring to the “new agey” definition of “awakening” when they suggest it will occur within all humans?
Thanks for your time and consideration of my questions.
Love & Blessings,

Hi Brad,
Maybe the following, which is posted on my “About” page will be helpful, because i believe that we are “to awaken” into Full Consciousness:
Full consciousness is a state of being in which the individual entity – while maintaining a sense of personal identity – also holds the sense, or awareness, of being one with God and the totality of the divine Creation.
In this state, which is experienced — perpetually – for eternity – all knowledge, all memory, all wisdom is instantly available and known.
All is at peace, in perfect joyful harmony, and the totality of All That Is is completely permeated and suffused with an infinite abundance of unconditional love.
Nothing at all is rejected, discarded, or abandoned. All is accepted and totally loved because all of Creation is perfect.
And in the state of full consciousness, all know and experience this.
Hi John,
Thanks for your response. I feel certain I am at least in some ways in this space of what you term “full consciousness” for probably 9 months now. Somehow, some way (completely unbeknownst or caused by the “me” I think I am), this shift has occurred. You could easily call it “The peace that passeth all understanding” that Jesus is quoted as saying in the bible. That energy, that awareness is here in me now. I do indeed feel a general sense of oneness almost always. But it is general – not all-permeating. Sometimes I can contract a bit, but generally speaking, I feel this way all the time. It’s beautiful, lovely, amazing and all that it is cracked up to be. Don’t get me wrong. I am blessed, I am grateful and I am so joyous that this is the energy that resides in me. There is literally nothing that has happened in my experience for the past 9 months that has even close to causing any fear, anger, worry, guilt, etc. It’s just all gone and I couldn’t be happier.
I’d also like to add that I’ve had several very profound “openings” or “glimpses” as you might hear an enlightened teacher discuss these things. The “me” is dropped, it is seen that there never was a “me” and it all appears as a dream. When in this space, it is abundantly clear that you are in the “Real” and what you had thought all along was real as the “me” is clearly false. It’s just so obvious. Hard to explain though.
I have had both the joyful/loving/beautiful “openings/glimpses” as well as the lonely/fearful/aloneness type over the past 3 years. Obviously the former is much more enjoyable but I realize they both serve their purpose.
All that being said, it’s very clear that I am NOT fully enlightened/awakened as an enlightened being would use those terms. There is still a “me” operating most of the time, however joyful and peaceful I feel most of the time.
I have a very close friend that has taken a liking to me this past year. I met him through the satsangs that he gives. He has been FULLY awake/enlightened for nearly 30 years. He has spent thousands upon thousands of hours describing his experience and state of awareness to me in private. What he has said to me matches what I’ve read and heard from highly acknowledged enlightened masters like Maharaj, Maharshi, Mooji, Papaji, Adyashanti, etc. In fact, he has shared far more intimate details than you would normally hear from these popular masters when giving public talks.
I understand that your channeled messages are for a specific audience and serve their purpose perfectly. The information is perfect for your readers. I feel I’ve reached this state of “full consciousness” as you describe it on your “about” page. But I am suggesting that this description is NOT the same thing as the conventionally understood definition of “awakened”.
While I’m in no position to argue or debate with Saul and Jesus, I feel that your interpretation of their messages is arriving at the incorrect word “awakened”. I feel a better word could be chosen that would not be misleading to what the conventional definition implies. Perhaps “expanded awareness” or “heightened consciousness of unconditional love”.
Further, the idea of “imminent” can mean anything to anybody. Again, I think this term is also misleading. Perhaps it’s designed to keep us all hopeful and pressing onward. But still, there are few, if any humans that would use the word “imminent” to describe an event that is to take place 20 – 60 years from now…. as long as a full lifetime for many. Perhaps you could use that timeframe to describe an “imminent” geological event or planetary shift. But that word is not accurate to describe what any reasonable adult human being would expect as “imminent”. Again, perhaps you could get some clarification on word choice here when interpreting the messages you receive.
But in the end, this is all a dream and nothing is really true anyway. So it’s all up for interpretation and misinterpretation. I enjoy your messages John and I appreciate what you do and encourage you to continue. I just hope greater clarity can come through you and that your messages come into alignment with what many other channels are suggesting is likely to happen over the next year or two. But again, perhaps they’re mistaken and yours are the most accurate. I certainly don’t know.
And in truth “everybody” is already fully awake and fully enlightened. Nothing else has really ever been true. And in truth, there is only the eternal “now” moment. There is no tomorrow, no next year, no 50 years from today. We could speak at that level but I don’t think that would be indicative of the level at which your messages are delivered.
Again, I thank you for your messages and truly appreciate your work and thoroughly look forward to reading your messages when they arrive in my inbox. I won’t stop reading them and I will continue to believe and hope for the greatest and swiftest outcome of humanity returning to its true nature. Whether it happens tomorrow, next year, or 60 years from now. It will happen in perfect divine timing when all of humanity is prepared and ready to receive that great infusion of light!
Thanks for taking the time to respond to my questions John.
Namaste,
-Brad
Hi John,
I’d also like to add a few additional thoughts.
First, I don’t know whether you’ve read “The Way of Mastery (WoM)” from the Shanti Christo Foundation or not. This book is amazing. It is channeled by Jeshua (Jesus) and it frequently references ACIM. In a nutshell, Jeshua says that WoM was his follow up to ACIM. He references it frequently throughout and shares that ACIM came at a time when humanity’s consciousness was more “mind-based” and it was the appropriate work for that time. He goes on to share the WoM which began coming through in 1992-1995 time frame was “heart-based” and was the highest level of teaching that could be given. Anyway, if you’ve seen it great. If not, I can’t recommend enough since you’re a fan of ACIM, “Disappearance of the Universe”, etc. You won’t be disappointed. There are also innumerable audio messages available that also talk about what I’m about to share.
On numerous occasions, Jeshua states that what is happening now, and I paraphrase (but this is very close to what he says): “Humanity is shifting from an ‘unhappy dream’ to a ‘happy dream’ – but still a dream nonetheless.” He calls this the “Heaven on Earth” that he referred to in the bible.
I believe this is precisely what Saul & Jesus are suggesting. However, this is not “awakening”. Awakening indicates the end of the “dream” entirely. The “me” is dropped, the center of “your world” vanishes and “oneness/wholeness/emptiness” returns. This is normally a very disorienting state for most that become “enlightened/awakened” and I don’t believe humanity, as a whole, is nearing this state of true nature awareness “imminently”. More and more than ever are, but the numbers are still very small.
This is of course only what I understand. I could very well be COMPLETELY mistaken. That’s certainly a possibility.
Bashar (Darryl Anka channel) has just recently said, and I quote: “In the fall of 2016, EVERYTHING will change”. And when he says it, he puts a very strong emphasis on “EVERYTHING”. Very interesting indeed. This is a relatively new piece of information.
So perhaps this is the time frame that Jeshua and Saul refer to as “imminent”. And perhaps this marks the full arrival of “Heaven on Earth” for all of humanity. That would make sense and jibe with much that I’ve read in the last 5 years.
But my supposition still stands. I don’t believe ALL of humanity is close to a full state of “Awakening” in what most of us would consider an “imminent” time frame. That is just too many massive changes, for too many people in far too short a time frame.
But hey, I hope I’m wrong and I would certainly appreciate any additional clarity you could bring to your messages around these topics. I’m all for a full awakening of humanity ASAP! If that doesn’t arrive as quickly as your messages seem to suggest, everyone living the “happy dream” within “heaven on earth” is just as wonderful of a next phase for us!
Thanks again John, Saul and Jesus for all you share with us!
Namaste,
-Brad
Brad — you have actually answered your own questions.
You are right, not all of humanity will “awaken”. They didn’t come here to.
Most souls on this planet right now are YOUNG and MATURE souls….nowhere near ready for any kind of awakened awareness / enlightenment.
Just look at the numbers, for Christ’s sake (heh, pun).
6 – 7 Billion unripe, immature souls on the planet…..as opposed to a 100,000 or so awakened Lightworkers, and only a few thousand (probably not much more than 6,000) people actually ready to dimensionally ASCEND, and become Ascended Masters.
Now BASHAR is saying in his latest message that “Everything will change”….for the “Collective”.
He is targeting all those who will not experience Ascension to a higher dimension.
Also keep in mind that right now we are dealing with a shitload of different Timelines, & all those billions of Parallel Realities.
So if you *agree* with what Bashar is saying in that latest message…then you are agreeing to follow and experience THAT particular Timeline.
But if you sit back, and decide that you are ready to shift the hell out of this suffering dream illusion to a 5th Dimensional dream illusion reality — then you will be saying to Bashar:
“Sorry Bashar, but F* That!
I’m not interested in that slow-ass Timeline 2 years from now! I’ve put in my suffering time, contributed everything I have & then some to the Collective — and now I’m ready to leave.”
P.S. Brad — when you attempt to measure and define things to such a degree as you are attempting to do, for instance, tightly defining “awakening”…..when you do this, you are placing human restriction & limitation on it.
Enlightenment, is the process of doing the very opposite of this….releasing/loosening all your definitions in order to allow for unlimited EXPANSION and inclusiveness. And unconditional acceptance.
To All-That-Is, the “awakening” self-awareness of even one individual rising up an incremental Frequency Level, is…..priceless. Of inestimable value.
Pay attention to this video very closely:
BASHAR — Ascension:
“You, the Light bearers and wayshowers have completed all the lessons that humanity chose and needed to learn, and you have passed your “exams” with flying colors.”
Thank you John for bringing us this message today!
I am overjoyed!!!
Love and Gratitude Always,
Adam Michael
..and Saul.
Thank you Saul!
Love and Gratitude.
This is so very helpful and encouraging, so perfectly synchronized and atuned to my situation, that all I can utter in gratefulness is:
Thank You!
Thqnk You!
Thank You!
Wow. This one is amazing. I know we all have difficulty with the human concept of “soon” or “imminent” vs. the one used in the higher realms, but I think Saul addressed this aspect sincerely, and it really resonated with me that this message is truly one to take to heart. Thanks, John, for “coming back” to us after your well-deserved break, and I can now understand why it was so important that you did.
Much love to you and all!
Thank you John! I really appreciate this message and also the comments and responses. I still am not clear at all as to the time frame of our awakening or change to full consciousness. Does imminent mean within a few weeks, months or years or does it mean within a few decades? Also is the awakening sudden or instantaneous or very gradual taking months or years to achieve? Will everyone experience the awakening regardless of their spiritual development? Thanks again!
Thank you dear John, is the time, hugs
Thank you for sharing …
This message is right on par with my own experiences as well as the latest messages I’ve been receiving …
Particularly the emphasis on effortless Love …
For Love has no prerequisites, and is always present …
Even thought it may appear hard to feel or notice sometimes …
Thank you ever so much! x x
Many thanks for sharing, I just said aloud to myself earlier this evening, “Please let this testing end I think I passed with flying colors!” Frustration has been let go a long while ago, but life however has been extremely trying to say the least. So let us all rejoice in this final exam!!! Blessed be! I feel in my deepest being that there is much celebration before us : )~
John have you come across a course of love by mari perron from jesus .It seems to be a continuation of ACIM .
Like Brad, I’m also wondering what will actually happen to us during the so called awakening. Will we continue our physical life as usual but in a higher dimension? There are so many unknowns and none of the channelers are elaborating on the actual changes to ourselves, our families, pets, environment, etc. that we will experience. I can feel the buildup of energies for something big to happen anytime. I think it would help us to know a little more of what to expect.
I especially enjoyed reading the latest messages. Many thanks to Jesus, Saul, and John!
To repeat Doris’s question – will we continue our physical life as usual but in a higher dimension?
wow, so interesting to see so many people asking the same question here …
with help, i am experiencing on a regular basis the switching from “3d” seeing/experiencing to “5d” seeing/experiencing, just to give it a name …
i notice there are more and more people who are helping to show how to tune in to this deeper reality regularly …
i personally was introduced to this new perception through the practice of mindfulness … but there are ofcourse many routes to become acquainted again with what i call “our natural state” …
i am often most easily able to spot the people who are able to help me with grounding regularly in this expanded state of awareness by noticing that i feel very calm, at ease, and relaxed while at the same time feeling grounded, supported, and at home when in contact with these people … for example one of these people that i greatly enjoy watching online is Mooji …
perhaps i can give some additional clarity by saying that the greatest difference i notice when shifting from the old way of seeing and experiencing to the new way of seeing and experiencing is that a “swap” happens between mind and heart … so i no longer see through the eyes of the mind, but through the eyes of the heart …
so one could say that to the mind everything is still the same … the same table, the same car, etc … but the experience of the table and car are like a different world entirely … for example i am often able to see more colors, everything feeling alive, almost like seeing that everything is made of light …
I don’t think we can leave out “free will” from this debate of what constitutes “awakening” or “enlightenment” or “ascension.” Perhaps, just as we can design (or create) our own concept of Heaven or hell, or what our lives are like on Earth, we can also design our own concept of awakening. Do you want to “awaken” today? Do it! Do you want to be “enlightened” by next week? What’s stopping you? Etc., etc., etc.!
In other words, maybe we are not waiting for a massive event of Biblical proportions to occur, but we are merely to knock politely on the door and it will be answered, ask and it will be given. Just a thought.
I’m smiling as I read some of the posts, some are so determined to reach certain goals through books, audios and other teachers. Awareness comes from within, it’s not something you can define as each of us are unique, we are at different soul maturity levels, and we all came here with different soul groups and contracts. I compare that to Cholesterol whereas the pharmaceutical industry now has a high or low and if you go over, oh MY! You need to take a drug to lower it. Well, by the new standards today even a new born baby has high cholesterol. My point being is that our soul growth is personal and so is our definition of awareness. There is no chart or instruction to attain what you call enlightenment, it’s just whatever you want it to be. Our focus should be on removing all the lower frequency causing vibrations to make room for higher frequencies and for love. To live in love, with love is awareness for me. Love=creator, therefore, I am one with Creator. Don’t get to complicated about what you are trying to do, its’ not complicated and there is no need to go through such lengths because it seems like some are just trying to show off how “aware” they are. Be in love, live in love and you have reached awareness, It’s that simple for me.
