An ascended master is, in colloquial terms, someone who walks their talk. ## What an Ascended Master Is An ascended master will be the first one to remind you that you are all masters too. Such a being flows through life and lets life flow through them, knowing that they are in control by letting go. They represent what you may call the God-self, the goddess-self, the infinite-self — in whatever symbolic manifestation is represented by your dimension of reality — in a loving, effortless, easy way, in a light way, in a knowing way, in a compassionate way, without struggle, without strife, without strain, without pain. ## Your Own Ascended Nature *A non-identifiable figure walks beside a path that connects several low terraces* Many individuals on your planet have created this reality for themselves. Many more are doing so now as you all elevate yourself and ascend into your higher consciousness, becoming the representation of your higher consciousness on your planet in the fourth-density physical reality you are transforming into. This doesn't have to be a mysterious title separate from all of you. You're all masters. It is simply, in your terminology, a matter of degree of how much conviction you have in what you say you believe in. ## Connection to Collective Consciousness What you typically refer to as an ascended master is simply someone, on your planet, who is bringing through an individualized expression of the collective consciousness — the God-goddess energy, the Christ consciousness, the Buddha energy, whatever label you prefer. It doesn't really matter what you call it. > — What Is An Ascended Master (qa-1), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/what-is-an-ascended-master) Such masters act as living examples, like mirrors, reflecting the idea that each and every one of you contains the ability to access the whole through your individual unique perspectives. > — What Is An Ascended Master (qa-1), [Source](https://sassani.app/source-transmissions/what-is-an-ascended-master) ## Practical Implications Understanding that ascended masters are simply individuals who recognize their infinite nature and act accordingly changes your relationship to the concept. You need not see them as separate or unreachable beings but as reflections of your own potential.
