You must understand that no commandment, no rule, that Humanity possesses, or indeed will ever possess on the Earth, can be described as absolute, as a totality, for that is not possible on this planet.
The Only Source
The only source of Absolute Truth, of Absolute Wisdom, of Absolute Intellect, of Absolute Knowledge of the Plan for this Earth, is your Creator, the Lord of this planetary system, that Being Whom you call God. Therefore, as I explain to you in this article, I can only interpret the conditions of life on this Earth as befits my consciousness, evolution and experience of life on it. If you will accept that I have walked a little further along the path than you and, therefore, that I have a clearer picture, a clearer vision, of life and of the purpose of life on this Earth, then you may also accept and meditate on what I am to say to you about the Ten Commandments. Understand that an aspect of the Cosmic Whole may be beamed down upon this Earth for Humanity to accept and understand, but never the complete power.
Ancient Civilisation
As we look at the Ten Commandments, in the form that they are reproduced in the Bible, realise that they were the guidelines for an ancient civilisation that has long since disappeared. That is not to say that they do not reflect a part of Absolute Truth, but that the reflection was intended for that ancient civilisation and will therefore not be in keeping with the Age in which you live today.
You are now living at the end of the Piscean Age and at the dawning of the Aquarian Age. Humanity, through the demonstration of the Nazarene, was given the teachings of the Christ only two thousand years ago, but today, because of the environment and the changing nature of the Age, people have difficulty in seeing the relevance of the Nazarene´s teachings. Obviously, therefore, it will be even more difficult for 21st century Humanity to see the relevance of the Ten Commandments which were given thousands of years earlier.
Let us now examine the Commandments in detail and try to relate them not to a civilisation of thousands of years ago but to the 21st century, to life today. Their meaning has, of course, suffered not only in translation but also as a result of changes made by various scholars who, in their desire to explain that which, because of their limited consciousnesses, they could not understand, altered not only the words but the significance as well.
The First Commandment
"THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME".This stands correctly as the first law, the first commandment, and is the most important one. On the surface this commandment would appear to be fairly self-explanatory. There is indeed only one God, but He is not the kind of God you imagine, for Humanity cannot conceive of the true God, Whose spirit dwells within the Sun and Who controls this Solar System. That God is beyond Humanity´s comprehension. Humanity can barely conceive of the Solar Lord Who dwells within this Earth, the ruler of this planet. Humanity can only relate to the Masters and Beings who regulate and guide life on this Earth. This commandment was therefore intended to remind Humanity -- and it is just as applicable today as it was at the time of Moses -- that the intermediaries are not God and that there is only one Being, one God, of Whom all Humanity is a part.
You are, therefore, an actual infinitesimal part of that Being Whose Body is the Solar System in which you dwell, the One God, the one Being, Who exists not only for you but for all the beings on the other planets and for all forms of creation. Therefore it can be seen that all those beings within the Body, who serve that one Being, the Greater Whole, are of equal importance.
Individually they advance along their own paths but, collectively, they are walking those individual paths for the good, for the advancement, to fulful the purpose and the plan, of that one Being Whose spirit dwells within the Sun. Therefore as far as you, as far as the Martian or the Venusian is concerned, there is only one God: the supreme God of Whom you are a part. That spark that is within you now is part of, and belongs to, that God and, ultimately when you have evolved sufficiently, you will return your individuality to that God.
