Kingdom of Heaven: Manifesting the Divine on Earth

The concept of the Kingdom of Heaven is often misunderstood as merely a distant realm we enter through death. However, a deeper understanding suggests that the Kingdom of Heaven is a state of being that transcends the boundaries of life and death, existing within us and around us regardless of our current state of existence.

In our embodied lives, we experience the Kingdom both internally and externally. It unfolds as we align our emotions with our higher, Christ-like self, and as we relinquish our ego to align our will with the divine will of God. In this alignment, the phrase "As above, so below" becomes a lived reality,

manifesting the divine and bringing the Kingdom of Heaven here on Earth through our very being.

Our daily experiences are, in fact, manifestations of our own Kingdom of Heaven, shaped by our choices, thoughts, actions, words, deeds, emotions, and beliefs. These elements co-create our reality across all dimensions of existence, right up to the present moment. While some may argue that this reality is far from heavenly, teachings from the Ascended Masters suggest a different perspective.

Indeed, if one were to compare this state to the divine perfection of the Cosmic Realms, it would fall short. However, this earthly experience is not the ultimate Heaven that the divine I AM envisions for us. This is why we aspire and pray for "On Earth as It Is in Heaven," seeking to bridge our current state with the divine perfection of the Cosmic Realm.
