What do we celebrate at Christmas ?
What do we celebrate at Christmas ? The union of the soul and spirit. They unite to give birth to a seed which is the beginning of a new consciousness within us. This consciousness manifests as an inner light that dispels all darkness… as heat of such intensity that, even if the whole world abandons us, we never feel alone… as an abundant life that bursts forth wherever our feet take us.
This consciousness is also accompanied by an influx of forces that we wish to consecrate to the edification and construction of the kingdom of God, and at the same time by the extraordinary joy of feeling ourselves to be part of this immensity, linked to the whole universe and to all evolved souls. And finally, we are certain that no one can take this joy from us. In India, this state is called buddhic consciousness, and the Christians call it the birth of Christ.
