The physical universe is the great maya, the great illusion spoken of by ancient Hindu seers. There is no real distinction between consciousness and physical matter, no real distinction between mind and body. All is one. All is consciousness.

Infinite Being contains all of the twelve density layers of consciousness. Each layer serves a specific function within the natural, functional hierarchy of Creation. Infinite Being is the innermost essence within each one of us, for we are all expressions of this ultimate state of consciousness. All is one; therefore, we also exist within each one of the twelve densities, even though our primary focus is normally directed into the third-density, physical world.

The Twelve Densities of Creation

First Density �?Matter

First density consciousness provides physical manifestation and the basic urge to survive. The consciousness of the atoms and molecules of physical matter functions from here.

These form the basis of physical matter, including the physical bodies employed by plants, animals and humans.

Second Density �?Biology

Second density supports the consciousness of plant and animal life as well as the urge to grow. Plant life, for example, reproduces and spreads until it reaches the limits provided by its environment. Second density is also the density of the basic emotions, such as anger and fear.

Third Density �?Individuality

Third density is the current realm of existence for the combined consciousness of physical humanity. It is where the consciousness of individuality and self-awareness is developed. Humanity’s experience of separation from its inner source is a deliberate experiment whereby the illusion of physical existence becomes very real.

The game of human physicality began long ago. As curious spirits, we progressed into a desire for maximum effect and then went on to discover how to create total immersion within the game.

The experience of humanity’s separation from its inner source is achieved through using a physical brain which focuses on senses that feed information from a universe which appears to be external. Our brains are wired to perceive space and experience time. The turning of our attention away from inner, spiritually-connected guidance provides a sharply-defined sense of individuality, one which would not have been possible were our brains designed differently.

Third density consciousness also supports other qualities for an evolving consciousness: The discovery of courage and optimism, and the development of intellect and reason.

Fourth Density �?Integration

Fourth density is the spirit realm, or the afterlife. When today’s massive Shift in consciousness has played through, it will eventually become the new realm for physical human consciousness. While third density develops separation, fourth density develops integration.

The heart-centered consciousness of the fourth-density afterlife heals the rifts that were created in third density physical life. In fourth density, spirits work upon integrating the inner conflicts which they explored in their physical lives. In this density, balance and unconditional love are developed, which lead to inner joy.

Fifth Density �?Inner Being

Fifth density brings with it the ability to create powerful realities and to transcend space and time. Once spirits in the afterlife have integrated their emotions and resolved their conflicts, they can pass on into fifth density. Fifth density is a nonphysical realm of the soul, of the “higher self�?or inner being. Your inner being is your complete consciousness, and therefore includes what we call our subconscious and superconscious minds.

Your inner being has a clear connection to the higher densities and Infinite Being. Therefore, a clear connection with your inner being is your direct source of spiritual empowerment.

Sixth Density �?Group Souls

While your immediate soul mates may number, typically, seven other souls, your soul family is much larger. It is closer to two thousand individuals, grouped together in a huge family of people with common likes and interests. You share a similar energetic background, history, and many preferences as to the kinds of experiences that you enjoy. These are the people with whom you share the most empathy. To your inner being, they are “Home.�?

Seventh Density �?Planetary Consciousness

There is much more to Gaia, the planet Earth, than meets the eye. Seventh density is home to planet-size fields of consciousness. In the physical realm, she provides her body as a home for humanity. The spiritual heart of the Mother Earth resides in this nonphysical, seventh-density realm of spiritual light.

Eighth Density �?Solar Consciousness

The spiritual heart of the Sun is in eighth-density consciousness. What we see in third density is its physical body, a faint reflection of its eighth-density, spiritual radiance.

An insight into the true size of the Sun can be gained from the heliosphere. This is a magnetized sphere of energy which stretches, from the Sun, four times further than Pluto in every direction. That’s a 22 billion mile-wide magnetic body which contains, sustains and cares for the planets and all life forms within its sphere.

As well as our being within its third-density heliosphere, we are connected, at the eighth-density level of consciousness, with the spiritual being we call the Sun. You cannot be born within its sphere without being a part of it. We are, as stated correctly by ancient cultures, Children of the Sun.

Ninth Density �?The Watchers

While there is One Creator of the universe, it had to functionally divide itself into parts which could manage the infinite number of details of Creation. The term, ‘the Watchers,�?as it is used here, refers to those who watch and protect life in the universe.

When necessary, they project parts of themselves into the deeper densities in order to manage details or to initiate new projects within the universe. One such project has been ours �?the gradual immersion of human consciousness into deeper, and therefore more sharply-focused, layers of density.

Like all layers of consciousness, we are a part of the Watchers. While we are part of the adventure of being human today, we were also, long ago, a part of the planning and inception of humanity.

Tenth Density �?Galactic Consciousness

A galaxy is a living cell within the consciousness of the universe. Like the Sun, which later gave birth to its planets, each galaxy gave birth to the suns within its massive body.

Eleventh Density �?The Founders

The term, ‘the Founders,�?as it is used here, refers to those who were charged with creating this universe in fine detail. They are the first layer of consciousness next to the Original Creation. They also serve as the central suns of the universe, constantly energizing Creation and thereby holding the entire universe in being.

The universe is structured as a self-sustaining cascade of consciousness. The original supply of consciousness begins at twelfth density and cascades through all of the densities. To feed the physical layers of existence, this flow also supplies etheric energy through a cascade of the central suns of the universe, then the central suns of the galaxies, and then the solar systems. This is the energy that sustains life, including the orbits of the planets and the orbits of the energy particles within each atom.

Twelfth Density �?The Original Creation

The Triad of Original Creation, the Three-In-One, consists of the principles of original intent, feeling and motion. It is in twelfth density that the consciousness templates of all of the universes were created.

Infinite Being, by its very nature, created an infinite number of universes including ours.

Beyond the Twelfth - Infinite Being

Infinite Being is the indivisible One, the origin of All That Is. The twelve densities of this universe are held within its consciousness.

The Ultimate in Human Potential

Could we really be great creators, just waiting to discover our true abilities?

As physical humans, we appear to live in an environment over which we have little control. However, in reality, the “solid�?world really isn’t solid at all. It’s just an appearance.

When you look within, and connect with your inner self, that appearance begins to melt like ice before the Sun. Instead of being rigidly fixed in a world of solid objects and waiting to see what will happen to you, you become a creator of your own reality.

We exist, not just in third density, but in all of the density levels in Creation. We are one with Infinite Being in its ultimate state and also upon all of its levels of manifestation. Therefore, we have access to huge potential in order to create realities which are joyful and fulfilling.

You can choose any path through life that you wish and, once you set an intention, a pathway opens up for you to fulfill that intention. As soon as you state a definite intention, the universe begins to reorganize itself around your new reality.

Now, to amplify that power of creativity to almost miraculous levels, consciously align yourself with your inner being and determine what is most important to you at that deepest level. Your fifth-density inner being is your soul level of consciousness. It is your own personal doorway to Infinite Being. When you re-affirm your connection with your inner being, you are connecting to the very level of consciousness which has the most creative power.

In alignment with your inner self, you can fulfill any potential that you can imagine and become any expression of your desired path through life. Your conscious alignment with such inner creative power will make synchronicity flow, open doorways along the way and dissolve barriers to make your pathway smooth.

Seek within, communicate with your inner self. Your inner self is your personal connection to Infinite Being and it is the source of your spiritual empowerment. State consciously that you intend to work with the full range of your consciousness and then watch miracles unfold within your life!
