Purity refers to a state of being free from both physical impurities and spiritual imperfections. It is considered essential for attaining higher levels of consciousness and for facilitating a closer connection with the Ascended Masters and the divine.
Key Aspects of Purity
- Vibrational Integrity: Purity is seen as a vibrational state that resonates with the high frequencies of the Ascended Masters. This involves cleansing both the outer physical conditions and the inner emotional and mental landscapes to ensure alignment with divine energies.
- Moral and Ethical Wholeness: Ethical purity is paramount, reflecting a life lived in alignment with divine laws and teachings of the Ascended Masters. This purity is not just about avoidance of moral wrongdoing but actively embodying virtues such as honesty, integrity, and compassion.
- Energy Cleansing: Practitioners often engage in specific rituals and practices designed to purify their energy fields, such as decrees, affirmations, and the use of the Violet Flame—a unique teaching of the I AM Activity that focuses on transmuting negative energy into positive, purified energy.
- Symbolism and Ritual: Purity is often symbolized by the color white, representing light without contamination. Rituals might include invocations and calls to specific Ascended Masters who embody purity, such as the Goddess of Purity, to help cleanse and elevate the practitioners’ spiritual state.
Application in Spiritual Practices
- Daily Decrees: The use of daily decrees aimed at invoking purity is common, where practitioners call upon the Ascended Masters to infuse their aura and activities with pure light.
- Meditative Practices: Meditation techniques focusing on visualizations of pure light or the enveloping presence of Ascended Masters can help refine the practitioners’ energies and thoughts, steering them towards greater purity.
- Lifestyle Choices: Adherents are encouraged to make lifestyle choices that reflect purity, including diet, interactions, and even thoughts, ensuring that all dimensions of their lives are conducive to spiritual growth and alignment with the high standards set by the Ascended Masters.
Challenges and Considerations
- Balance: While striving for purity, it is crucial to maintain balance and avoid extremities that can lead to spiritual bypassing or neglect of practical aspects of life.
- Inclusivity: Emphasizing purity should not lead to judgment or exclusion of others who may be at different stages of their spiritual journey.
