An Introductory Perspective of Adam and Eve
An Introductory Perspective of Adam and Eve
Teacher: Scott Walter, Sensei
This article was written in response to a question asked (on 8/3/09) in an Eternal Awareness website discussion group.
Q. I have read your “Reconciling our Separation from Oneness” [article] several times. One thing that I’m unsure of is how literally to take certain things. For instance, do you regard Adam and Eve literally as the first two people who existed? How far do you go with the Creation story? Is the death of Jesus to be taken entirely in its literal sense, or is there at least an element of death of the ego, of “death before death”?
I ask this not merely out of curiosity, but because it influences how to take what you are saying. I can read all sorts of things into it but I want to be, as far as possible, on the same wavelength as you.
A. These are very important questions, not only to understand my perspective, but to access the values present at the many different resolution points in reasoning and application.
Let’s consider Adam and Eve. These are the names given to the Prime positions of Male and Female in this current model of humanity. Even the names have meaning. These prime points are in each application of this model, you being one and me being another. These are also the names given to the beings incarnating into those first two Prime positions. It is not the names of the souls. It is the names of those particular lives. This model, along with previous models, such as the Neanderthals, was created as an evolving species and there is an evolvement within each model. But previous models were in need of revision and the beings that created the new more evolved model set about to do just that. These beings, known as the Elohim were the creative team. Genesis says ‘They created Adam in Their own image.’ This refers to the Creators, acting as God, being seven in number, each representing the seven spirits of God, or the seven chakras, also referred to as the seven seals in humanity’s closed forms of awareness. These beings acting as One created this model and another chosen spiritual being entered the model to perform the opening of the model and was called Adam upon entering, and was later paired into Adam and Eve. The souls performing this role were acting on behalf of humanity and Heaven’s efforts to create an improved, or more evolved model of humanity, for the souls entering into Earth’s plane to incarnate into. The plan was to offer a model with a primary sense of oneness as it faced and ventured into matter. Newly incarnating Earthlings would have to re-enter in the new model as the old one was phased out. The new model, a prototype, was placed in a suspended mode, in The Garden. The Garden was a dimension on the precipice of spiritual/physical dimensionality. There was an emphasis on the spiritual connection where the higher values of spiritual good and communion were apparent. The model was to develop a sense of matter based on the connection to Oneness, where what was good was determined by measuring to the Divine aspects of being.
When the model Adam and Eve “fell” they shifted their sense of the Good and Truth of Oneness into the differential values of Matter. They shifted their sense of value outward and lost their sense of Oneness. This resulted in a sense of separation, even though the connection to Oneness was still present within them. As they moved more through the matters present in their new sense of the moment, looking for the best forms of matter, they became further lost in the different values of matter and consequently lost their inward bearings to the Oneness present in all things, including themselves.
The Creator Beings, through their representative known there as the Lord, met with Adam and Eve and saw they had lost the sense that the model was built to center on. They were at a point in the Garden, which was a state of being between physical, where the lesser model dwelled and the spiritual, where the creator beings dwelled. Before the fall, Adam and Eve were actually walking on the threshold of both worlds. This place was real and still is within each of us. Clairvoyants tap into this place to some limited degree as do Yogis and Monks and layman having revelatory experiences. But Adam and Eve dwelled there as a way of being. When they shifted their focus outwardly and gave their sense of Center and Being to those forms of matter, they separated from the Divine plan. At this point Heaven blocked their access to the Tree of Life, or to the Eternal plane, on condition that they would have to come to that tree, or point within, by working the model into the position again. Adam and Eve set out to do that and worked it over a number of lives.
Now, this idea is also present in our own senses of being, of separation, of displaced value, of reclamation, and it occurs in our individual lives and experiences. But only because it was loaded in as a value at the beginning of the hardware, the operating system programming and software design and applications.
This inward/outward search and value balancing is happening at many resolutions, and it did in fact occur as the prime points of what became this model’s initial ego were moving through the model created by the design team.
Jesus and Mary did really live and die and their lives as depicted in the recounts and myths all represent an aspect of the inner truths. They were to later return as new incarnations, working on these same issues and working to align within their new embodiments with the principal positions they played as Adam and Eve. The nature of their work has been recorded inside our own minds and in the eternal records. Eve became Mary, and is called the immaculate conception because as Eve she was born straight from the Creator through Adam. Adam became Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, because every other son of God has come through a woman in their birth entry. Adam was born straight from the Elohim’s work bench. These prime points are in every one of us, but these two particular souls, had a first person experience in the two prime positions and Adam also had time in the position before the separation into Adam and Eve.
Now, there is certainly the figurative birth and death of the ego, sacrificing the lower self, being reborn in the spirit, the death before death, and the life after death as it relates to everyone’s variable acceptance and understanding. But there is also the understanding of the universal value of these things as they apply to the prime positions. These two positions are the steps that stand between spirit and matter in the highest resolution of this model. And the translated Value of knowing these positions exist depends on your acceptance of them at their variable resolutions including Adam and Eve, as points within yourself and as actual beings.
The beings playing these prime positions agreed to work those points on behalf of everyone and have continued to do that since their first entry into the model. Every religion focusing on Oneness has been associated with this effort. There are many beings working on this. Some come in to focus on reducing the value of matter, some of increasing the value of the Light. Some on how to meditate, some on how to overcome negativity, some on the pathway inward and some on the point in between. It is a combined effort of many.
We are all part of this effort to some degree. The key players work with more focus and the race evolves as a result of those efforts and the general acceptance of those values. So there is an on-going evolution, and there is a creation underway. The Truth is in everything. By considering the reality of souls working specifically in these and other ways, you do not limit your understandings and abilities to consider other resolutions and viewpoints. But, you do gain more understanding of the Truth and this is necessary if you want to be more in tune with those efforts and values. You cannot dwell with a ever more comprehensive awareness of Truth in the places of your denial. So, by opening your consideration to the Truth of Everything, you will gain more of the Truth of Everything.
