#SpiritualAwakening #KnowYourWorth #DivinePotential
It’s often said that we don’t know what we have until we lose it, and that realization can be one of the most eye-opening moments of our lives. This is precisely what the story of the prodigal son teaches us: the mistake of forsaking our birthright and eating the crumbs when we have the entire feast before us. As human beings, we are often caught up in the struggles of life, settling for less than we deserve, and forgetting the divine potential within us. But what if we’re meant for so much more? What if we’ve been eating the crumbs when the table is full of delicacies waiting for us?
In the story of the prodigal son from the Bible, we see a young man who demands his inheritance and wastes it all, only to return home in shame, only to be welcomed back with open arms by his father. This story teaches the importance of recognizing our worth and never settling for less than what is our divine inheritance. It is the same with us—we are heirs to an abundant spiritual legacy, but many of us choose to live far below our potential. We chase fleeting pleasures and false promises, rather than embracing the divine purpose we are born to fulfill.
Jesus said, "The kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21). The Torah also teaches, "I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life" (Deuteronomy 30:19). These scriptures remind us that we have a choice to live in alignment with our highest potential. The decision is ours—whether we continue to eat the crumbs or take our rightful place at the table of abundance and divine truth.
The Qur'an also speaks of this in Surah 2:286: "Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear." This divine truth tells us that we are capable of far more than we realize. We are not meant to live in limitation; we are meant to live in abundance and spiritual freedom. But to access this, we must first realize the truth about who we are and the inheritance that is ours.
In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, we emphasize the importance of recognizing our divine birthright through the teachings and rituals associated with each degree. The Initiate degree (1-3) introduces the Atlantean concepts of unity with the divine essence—the Ocean, the Wave, and the Ship. These working tools remind us of our inherent connection to the infinite source of all things. But too often, we focus on the surface (the crumbs) and forget that we are part of something far greater.
The Navigator degree (4-6) teaches us about the power of the senses and the rational mind. In this stage, we begin to awaken to the realization that our senses and thoughts are not merely tools of survival, but they are keys to unlocking the wisdom of the cosmos. However, many still refuse to embrace this truth, living without fully realizing the power of their own mind and senses.
In the Captain degree (7-9), we learn to transcend the physical world and align with the highest truths through intuition, inner vision, and conscience. Here, the working tools—the Blazing Star, Sextant, and Bell—guide us to our highest potential. These tools symbolize the awakening of our divine potential and the ability to manifest our deepest desires in alignment with universal law. But like the prodigal son, many remain unaware of this potential, distracted by the illusions of the world.
The Atlantean teachings remind us that we are born with the ability to access this divine knowledge. Yet, it is only through awakening that we can stop eating the crumbs and take our rightful place at the table of abundance. Our birthright is not to struggle for scraps, but to live in alignment with the divine purpose for which we were created.
Grandmaster WaXhira teaches, "When you awaken to your true nature, you will see that you have never lacked anything. The table has always been full, but you have been blind to it. Open your eyes to the divine truth within, and all will be revealed."
