The Metamorphosis is the perfect analogy I use to teach my students about the Awakening/Enlightenment Process.
Beyond this life we start out as a Spiritual Butterfly (one with The Divine). We are seemingly born into this 3rd Dimensional life as an Ego Caterpillar body/mind. In reality however; birth is really a (falling asleep into a dream and forgetting what we truly are.)
We often live for decades trying to be happy as an Ego Caterpillar by accumulating money, material possessions or having special relationships! However after a great deal of disappointments, we come to realize these won’t make us happy, so we turn to doing things that we think might make us happy, such as; getting a college degree, a better job, career, partying, or traveling. Some of us work hard on the Ego Caterpillar body suit, hoping to be known as a special Ego Caterpillar, which only leaves us fearful, frustrated, angry and depressed.
Then Spiritual Butterfly comes along and explains how they went through “The Dark Night of The Soul” and had a miraculous awakening experience. They teach us that we’re really not an Ego Caterpillar at all, and in fact these programmed beliefs, which have convinced us of a False Identity as an Ego Caterpillar are just illusions. The conditioning from our Ego Caterpillar society, family and friends, along with all kinds of experiences, especially traumatic ones, have caused us to forget that we too are a Spiritual Butterfly under all of the sub-conscious programming.
We are told by the wise Spiritual Butterfly; that true happiness is only in being what we truly are as a Spiritual Butterfly. This will require us to shed the Ego Caterpillar body, or as the Bible says; Die to Self. What this means; is having a willingness to enter the Cocoon (Dark Night of The Soul) and do the Inner Healing on our trauma, deprogramming of the Ego Caterpillar’s mind and essentially realizing what we’ve believed about ourselves and our world to not be true.
The Metamorphosis Phase is what we call the 4th Dimension. It’s where all the work is done. Entering the Cocoon we must be committed to living in awareness of the Caterpillar’s egotistical tendencies and be willing change decades of habits. Along with no longer letting the Caterpillar mind dwell on thoughts of the past/future, being a victim, or feeling superior to other Ego Caterpillars!
This is not an easy task and will take a great deal of effort, consistency and guidance. As we are going through the process we discover how the Ego Caterpillar created un-forgiveness, bitterness and walls to protect it’s self from others. This is when we begin to dismantle and take down those walls with forgiveness and truth, so that The Divine’s light/love can flow abundantly through us without any hinderance or blockages.
What’s really neat in the 4th Dimension Cocoon is that, we not only gain power and strength over the Caterpillar body/mind, but our True Butterfly Self begins to emerge and we start realizing our super powers of; intuition, telepathy, synchronicity, visualization, premonitions, epiphanies etc. We may even have supernatural or outer body experiences.
Once we have completely died to the Ego Caterpillar Self, we awaken to our oneness with The Divine and we emerge as a beautiful Butterfly into the 5th dimension mindset or Christ Consciousness. Knowing our oneness with The Source of light/love and that everything in this illusion, is being animated by this loving energy and essence!
Butterfly Life
I must warn you; when we first emerge and begin to experience our supernatural life of peace, joy and happiness, while also seeing Caterpillar Beings who are suffering, we may try to teach them that they are really a 5D Butterfly and they don’t have to live as a 3D Caterpillar with all it’s pain and suffering.
Those who are really done with being an Ego Caterpillar will listen and enter their Cocoon and begin their awakening journey. Those who are not ready to give up the Ego Caterpillar life with it indulgences, instant gratification and ego tendencies will call us crazy and may even verbally attack us or slander us.
If we continue to try and speak Butterfly language about life beyond the 3rd Dimensional Caterpillar Matrix Life, while they continue to resist our efforts, we will eventually hurt them and ourself in the process. It’s the hardest thing to accept, but we can’t speak Butterfly language to a 3D Ego Caterpillar whose not ready to hear it.
Allowing and accepting a person’s level of consciousness: 3D – 4D – 5D, is incredibly freeing and we can fly off being a beautiful 5D Butterfly, with loving confidence and gratitude that this 3D world is in the midst of a Global Butterly Awakening and we get to be apart of it.
Churches and The Metamorphosis
Having been a Christian for 33 years, I couldn’t help imagining churches no longer preaching; “Repent and Pray to be saved!” But instead they would teach that we are not a sinful Caterpillar, but rather we are perfectly Divine Butterflies and that we must enter our Cocoon for a time to go through The Dark Night of The Soul so we can shed our Ego Caterpillar body/mind and awaken/ remember what we truly are. Then the Butterfly can get baptized as a celebration of their transformation.
Then The Divine spoke truth about this dream: “There would be no need for churches, churches couldn’t exit because of all the Butterflies taking flight. Churches were designed by Ego Caterpillars – for Ego Caterpillars – to stay Ego Caterpillars. Those Butterflies who are tired of being an Ego Caterpillar, are the ones who leave the church and other organizations, knowing they can’t go through Metamorphosis while doing what they’ve always done! Your job is to accept that and move on, guiding those who are ready to awaken.”
If you are one of those people who is questioning your beliefs, or are simply tired of suffering as an Ego Caterpillar, make sure to find a guide that has gone through The Dark Night of The Soul. So they can confidently guide you out of the darkness and into the light. Traditional Therapy is good to help us to understand our childhood trauma and experiences that helped to create the Egotistical Programmed Caterpillar Mind. But unless the Therapist has gone through The Dark Night of the Soul, they won’t know what they Truly are, or how to guide you through the Metamorphosis, which can be frustrating.
There are also books that can help you on your journey such as: The Power of Now – A Course In Miracles – I Can See Clearly Now – The Children of The Law of One: The Lost City of Atlantis.
