Ngomo
“Each day is a small life” — M.Gorky
“Each life is a minute on the soul’s path” — Ngomo
We have known Ngomo for a long time. He was one of the first Divine Teachers to take part in the formation and development of our School.
He has several favorite forest places.
This place in a pine forest is a small swamp covered with a carpet of soft green moss. Here He showed us special African dances. His giant Body of the Consciousness moved gently and gracefully with a rhythm of African melodies, filling us with joy and power of Divine Love.
There are also places where in His Mahadoubles, spread out for kilometers, He revealed to us — year after year — the secrets of further spiritual growth.
“We thank You for Great Love, for knowledge that You give us! Tell us, please, about Yourself: about how You grew up to Divinity, how You live now…”
“Well, listen…
“Once I was an Astrakhan Tatar and hated all Jews. Later on, according to the law of karma, I was an Astrakhan Jew, and was afraid of Tatars and hated them, as well as all Muslims. After that I was embodied in the Caucasus, being an Azerbaijani, and hated all Armenians. Then I was an Armenian and hated Azerbaijanis…
“After that nightmare, there was an incarnation that brought Me — a long time afterward — the Divine glory. The African incarnation has nothing to do with this: in Africa I was embodied later on, being already Divine.
“I know also ‘Holy Russia’ very well… I was an old monk in an Orthodox monastery. In that incarnation, Jesus Christ touched Me with His Wings of Love, and I understood everything!…
“Yes, My spiritual Path began in Russia, in Orthodoxy. I was mastering the methods of Hesychasm then.
“Vladimir, you are the first who understood My Essence! And I am very grateful to you for this! I will do everything to save this knowledge for people on the Earth!
“… My path was very long, because it was necessary to pass through many incarnations in order to clean Myself from the burden of the past and only then to merge with the Creator of the entire manifested universe. According to the law of karma, all the evil caused by Me returned to My destiny… — until I experienced all that I wished to others…
“… Once I lived on the bank of the Volga river… I was a boatman. The river taught Me a lot… I ferried people from one bank to another. The river carried My boat; the river taught Me wisdom and calm… I ferried many people and learnt a lot from them…
“I said to you once that I lived under the ‘town Crane’. But do not look for it on the map… Cranes lived on the roof of My hut, and I lived under their town…
“… The one who observes everyday how cranes live will never be a man of evil. Their flight is like a dance: they lower their long legs when approaching the earth and, rocking on their wings in the warm air currents, gently land on the ground… Their song during the flight — the song of the soul — is incomparable with anything else.
“A crane can also tell with its beak about its love. It throws back its head, almost pressing it to the back, and, with fast clicking, beats out the rhythm of the song for its beloved:
‘I love you, I love only you, and I will forever love only you, my Chosen One! You will be the mother of my children! I love you, you, and only you!’’
“Where did Your ‘meditations of sands’ come from? How did You invent these amazing meditations for the transformation of the energies of the body’s matter? Were You embodied in Africa, in the desert?”
“No, the African incarnation has nothing to do with this… As for sands… — it was a game…
“I will tell you the story about a boy who lived on the bank of a river…
“… The boy is sitting near the river and playing with sand… Soft white sand runs down in a soft flow through his fingers … The boy plays, and the sand dissolves him in itself. The boy experiences the mobility of the sand’s energies and flows together with it. In this way he begins to learn how one can be the Living Light.
“And from the sand, moistened with water, castles, sculptures, and bridges arise… This ‘sandy world’ consists of crystals of white-goldish sand… In a short time this ‘world’ will dry, and the wind will blow it away…
“Now the boy is not playing with the sand; he is looking at the river. He follows the cranes, flying above the river, with his eyes; he follows the water, streaming into the sea… The boy wants to flow far away with transparent water…
“If one looks at transparent water for a long time, then the water begins to sound… Someone said to the boy that people built a dam in a way that churches were flooded, and now the water of the river rings the bells, which people do not ring anymore… Now the river rings the bells to awake the souls of people…
“… The boy hears the bells ringing in the transparent water… The transparent waters move apart like curtains… An old monastery stands on the bank of the river, and its bells sing their song…
“… An old monk Zosima smiles in his cell. It is morning. God is rejoicing at the morning, and the old monk Zosima is rejoicing at the morning as well… Since Jesus has been living in his heart, the old monk Zosima is always in joy… He lights a candle, and the cordial warmth in this heart becomes brighter. He whispers quietly the words of gratitude to the Lord, and Jesus rejoices in the heart of the old monk Zosima. The morning of the Lord is on the earth, and the morning of the Lord is in the heart of Zosima… Zosima recollects in his prayers all whom he knows and whom he does not, and the cordial love of the old monk Zosima flows like a river…
“… Look at the flow of water: the transparent water washes away the image of the old monk — an image from My past, and there remains only the river… On the other side of each drop of water, the purest Light shines… In this Light, you can see neither the boatman on the river, nor the old monk Zosima, nor the famous writer who described in his books the path of the soul, nor African Ngomo Who would have died of tuberculosis if He had not recalled that He and the Ocean of the Primordial Consciousness are One…”
“It seems to me that You mentioned what is called ‘sudden enlightenment’, right?”
“Yes.
“Let Me tell about this in detail.
“An ascent of each soul is a long path, a hard struggle. As a result of this struggle, a complete transformation of the personality, of the individual ‘I’ into the ‘I’ of the Creator happens.
“‘Sudden enlightenment’, in the common understanding of this term, is an illusion. It is just the narrow, subjective view of those who are not capable of looking beyond the borders of one particular incarnation.
“What does ‘sudden enlightenment’ look like, seen through the eyes of an ordinary person? It looks like this: ‘One lives an ordinary life, and all of a sudden — bang! — enlightenment happens: Everything is God!’ Yes, it can be like this, but with a few, with those who in the course of many incarnations worked in the ‘spiritual field’. If we ‘lift the veil of the past’ of such a soul, then we will see that in the previous life it was enough for that soul to make a little step to attain the completeness of awareness.
“In this way the ‘miracles’ of ‘sudden enlightenments’ happen. All of them are created by Me! Miracles, extraordinary events, are the best ‘hook’, the most ‘delicious bait’ that attracts masses of young incarnate souls instantly. And sometimes this creates an opportunity to build one more center of spirituality on the Earth, to distract people from worldly bustle, from depravity, to sow in them the seeds of life dedicated to the quest for Perfection and cognition of the Creator.
“Those who experience ‘sudden enlightenment’ do not always have a recollection of how long and hard their own Path was. They just plunge completely into Me, into the ecstasy of Unity and often make a mistake by thinking that every soul at any moment of life can attain the same greatest state. But this is also used by Me. This is My test, My reconnaissance which allows Me to know how this or that soul will use this or that information.
“Yes, not all who ‘swallowed the bait’ make a right choice. But this is a natural selection among souls! I just suggest the Path, but all further development depends on many factors, including the initial qualities of the soul. For some people the statement ‘All is God’ instantly turns into a formula ‘therefore, I am God!’ and becomes a justification for all the manifestations of the lower self, even the most ugly ones. Others, on the contrary, having heard these words, perceive them as the Law of Love: ‘All is God’ means that He is present in everyone and everything. Therefore, I should treat each form of life with love and respect. And such a ‘sudden’ change of the outlook of the soul is the beginning of its Path.
“… The destiny which I suggest to you is always a response to your state of the soul. If you change yourself as a soul, your destiny changes too.
“… My advancement was not rapid. From the first touch of Jesus to full Mergence with the Creator, several incarnations passed…”
“Why did You choose from all Your names in different incarnations the name Ngomo? Does this name mean something special for You?”
“The name Ngomo means ‘He Who dissolves others in Himself’, and I like it because it reflects My Essence.”
“Tell us, please, about that incarnation when You merged forever with the Creator.”
“I was a doctor in Mexico. At that time I had already known the Creator and could merge with Him. I loved people very much and strove to help them, wanted to serve them as our Universal Father does. And He gave Me such an opportunity: I became a healer.
“The methodology of work was extremely simple. By My Arms of the Consciousness I penetrated into the diseased area and cleansed the damaged parts, removing the consequences of the disease. Then I filled this area with new contents — with the purest Atmic Light. Of course, prior to healing I explained to the patients the meaning of such work. In particular, I explained that the cause of the disease lies in vices of the soul. The results of these vices are sins. And if the patient accepted My explanations and by sincere repentance purified oneself, then the success was guaranteed: such a person recovered.
“I was able to help many people then.
“I told them about God, that He is our Universal Father and Mother, about how He loves us, about His Great Patience and Care, about His Tenderness and Love, that He is not a punishing judge, but a caring, understanding, and loving parent, that He can come to your life if you desire it with all your heart and aspire to Him.”
“And how did You attain Divinity then?”
“Everything was quite simple. I worked for people and for Him, completely forgetting about ‘myself’. There was only He, His Eternal Love, and those to whom He helped through Me.
“At some point all these became united: I disappeared as an ‘I’, and only He remained. And He was in everyone to whom I continued helping. My life became His life! And I attained the Great Calm!
“Later on I died a natural death: My material body simply exhausted its resources; I left it completely and entered the Father.”
“Tell us why did You come again to the Earth after attaining full Mergence with the Father?”
“I came to My children, putting on again corporeal flesh, in order to give them an opportunity to recognize and experience their true Parents: the Primordial Universal Consciousness, Universal Father and Mother. I came to encompass them with true Love, true Tenderness, and true Care, to give them ‘Heavenly Bread’. The souls which accepted and ate this ‘Bread’ began growing and shining, illuminated from within with the Divine Light of Love. And no matter what happened to such a person afterwards, in the soul the memory of the Father remained.
“… There is an amazing quality of consciousnesses — the ability to merge.
“The consciousness is capable of merging with other consciousnesses; and when it merges with the Consciousness of God, the Ocean of Me engulfs you by Its Eternity…
“Nirvana is very simple: first there is the Ocean of the Primordial One in Which there is no you, then there is the ‘I’ of the Ocean That is not divided anymore into you and Me!”
