This is an Inheritance Teaching. Whatever is preceded by the words forty generations later is direct teachings content. The explanation of the Direct Teachings was given by David Fastiggi based upon his life experience in the application and inheritance of this content.
The Star of Bethlehem
Remembering with Star Light
After the third breath Jesus came and said:
In this world it may not be seen readily, the spiritual trail of the soul that is in trouble. Concealing and hiding can be done. In the spiritual world the inner trail is seen. You are more of an open book to be seen. Therefore, I say to you, purify yourself here, now, that in your next life your inner trail is clean. The moments that our God has touched your life is a pure point in your inner self. This is the light of a star that you may always see inside. This light is your guide. In the struggle of spiritual darkness, the starlight shall guide you.
What do we do when the lights seem to go out from a time when we felt alive and on top of the world, to a day when we find ourselves in the dark? For each one of us the dark represents something different. We have times in life when we feel as if we’ve been knocked out. The Star of Bethlehem enables us to get up before the count of ten - it’s the light you see; the thin stream; the flicker of hope and clarity to direct life from this point. Search your memory and you will find the times when the universe supported or communicated to you. Travel back to when you felt God’s presence. What does it say to you?
Jesus says forty generations later:
The memory of how you were when you felt God in your life is the light of the star to your rebirth.
The difference between the Star of Bethlehem and Hear My Voice is that with Hear My Voice you are still able to hear. Not so with the Star of Bethlehem. You will need to navigate back, with the starlight, to the times in life when you were feeling God, listening to your conscience, and when prayer seemed to work.
When life has been cast down into the abyss, the darkness shuts us off from all sense of spiritual connection (or so it seems). Many years ago, my life seemed to have fallen into the abyss: an engagement was called off, my job was gone, the telephone was disconnected, and I needed a painful, expensive root canal. My finances were bleak and there seemed to be no brightness in my future. In this situation I sat on the floor in my empty apartment, praying and traveling back to times when I was clear, healthy, and positive - when God was within reaching distance. When those memories stirred within me, I remembered my best life experiences and starlight came through those memories. There I found lessons that assured me I could attain healthy, positive experiences again and affirmation that I could be there again. The starlight was a beacon to lead me home and the memories of my heart were leading me there.
It is possible that you may not have much to recall. Your memories are either clouded, buried or few and far between. In this case, please find an inspirational figure that can stir images of hope and comfort for you. Images that you identify as what you want to strive for. This will work also and act as a surrogate Star of Bethlehem for you.
Remember: When all falls apart, follow the starlight.
