What is Steps to Knowledge and how should you study it?

Watch Marshall Vian Summers speak during the 2015 Steps Vigil, June 5, 2015


Marshall: I would like to say a few words about Steps to Knowledge tonight, why it’s here and what it’s intended to do for all who can study it. 

First of all, Steps to Knowledge is an ancient teaching that has been used in the universe in many places. What we are receiving now is the version of Steps to Knowledge designed for the human family—designed for our temperament, our world, our potential, our crises, our general condition. It is a gift from the Creator of all life through the Angelic Assembly

It is being presented in a pure form as it was received. It has a series of steps that work both practically and mysteriously to re-engage you with the deeper Intelligence that God has put within you, which alone holds the truth about who you are and why you’re here in the world at this time and what you’re here to achieve. 

This deeper part of you that exists beyond the realm and the reach of the intellect is without corruption. It is not afraid of the world and it does not think the way that your worldly mind thinks, your worldly mind that has been conditioned to such a great degree by your environment and experience of life here. 

This deeper Knowledge represents your true nature, the immortal aspect of yourself that is still connected to God. And this connection defies all religious understanding and explanation. It is so fundamental, so elemental to who you are and what you are here to do. 

It is through Knowledge that the Will of the Creator can be expressed. So in one sense, Steps to Knowledge can be seen as a return to true relationship—a true relationship with yourself, a true relationship between the part of you that is wandering and lost in the world and the part of you that is still, at your foundation, connected to your source and to your purpose here. It is a return to true relationship with others based upon purpose and destiny, for there are certain other people in life whom you are destined to find and to meet. And they, too, hold the key and part of the puzzle to your life. They are destined to do something important in the world with you. Beyond all the attractions of beauty, wealth and charm, this connection at the level of Knowledge is so powerful in relationship.

Steps to Knowledge is your return to true relationship with those who sent you into the world, who exist beyond the visible range who watch over you to see if you can find within yourself that deeper need, that greater desire for meaning, true relationship and purpose that can initiate a return, another dimension of your life—the most important activity you can engage in.

For God saves all who are separated through Knowledge and unites them purposefully in meaningful relationships to bring service, grace and value to this world and to all worlds in the universe. So great is the Plan of God that no theology could contain it or explain it. For God has spoken again now in a world of cataclysmic change, a world of religious violence and division, a world facing the realities of life in the universe for the very first time, for a humanity who is unprepared and unaware of what is coming over the horizon—a great gift of preparation. 

And Steps to Knowledge represents, within God’s New Revelation for the world, part of that preparation that is so essential, given in words so simple, yet so deep, that you cannot exhaust its wealth and its wisdom, given in a form easily translatable into other languages so that it may speak to people of all faith traditions and nationalities, rich and poor, in all corners of the world.

Only the genius of the Creator could create such a thing that could reach so many people who live in such different parts of the world, such different realities, speak to them, bringing them together, and set in motion a great force of unity and cooperation, which will be necessary for humanity to survive the Great Waves of change that are coming—great environmental waves of change, times of great upheaval and uncertainty. 

This is not the end times. This is a time of great transition, where humanity faces a challenge of creating a greater unity in preparation for its engagement with a universe full of intelligent life, a non-human universe where freedom is rare. Steps to Knowledge and the New Revelation from God is to prepare humanity for this as well.

If you can take these Steps, even if you cannot take all of them at once, it will bring about a profound change in your life at a deeper level, not just a change of ideas of beliefs, but a change of orientation in how you regard yourself, others and the whole world. Only the Power of Heaven can do this. And the Power of Heaven is in Steps to Knowledge. 

May this Power be yours to receive and to study and to take a greater journey that has been waiting for you for so long.
