The I AM America Mentoring Program is designed as a progressive spiritual path, where each course and text builds upon the last. Patience and disciplined study are key to absorbing the teachings at a deep level. Students who carefully follow the sequence of lessons integrate the material more quickly and effectively, allowing them to embody these higher teachings with clarity.
Take One Step at a Time: The students who benefit most from this program are those who patiently progress through the material, one lesson at a time. When students allow themselves to fully absorb and integrate each teaching, they develop a stronger spiritual foundation that makes it easier to receive new insights and initiations.
Avoid Jumping Ahead: Some students may feel eager to explore more advanced material before completing the foundational teachings. However, skipping steps creates knowledge gaps, making it difficult to integrate deeper teachings later. Everything in this program builds upon itself—taking shortcuts often results in missing essential pieces of the Ascension Process.
Commit to One Book at a Time: It’s natural to feel drawn to advanced concepts, but jumping between texts can cause confusion. Mastery comes from deep focus—each book contains layers of wisdom that reveal themselves over time.
Spiritual Integration is More Important Than Speed: The goal is not to “finish” the material quickly, but rather to embody the teachings fully. True spiritual progress is measured by how well the knowledge is integrated into your daily life, not by how many books you’ve read.
Let Go of Preconceived Ideas: Many students come into this program with backgrounds in other traditions or previous Ascended Master Teachings. While prior experience can be helpful, it is often a hindrance if students assume they already know what is being taught. Every teaching carries its own vibrational signature, and approaching this material with an open heart allows for deeper transmission and understanding.
Beware of the Ego’s Desire to “Already Know”: The mind may resist new information that challenges old paradigms. Some students struggle because they compare these teachings with what they have learned elsewhere, rather than experiencing them directly. The best way to receive the full benefit of these teachings is to temporarily set aside past knowledge and allow this material to speak for itself.
I AM America Teachings
The I AM America Teachings Stand on Their Own: While there are many spiritual traditions and teachings in the world, the I AM America Teachings provide a unique and complete pathway for spiritual development, Ascension, and personal transformation. This program is not designed to compare or blend teachings from multiple sources, but rather to fully immerse students in this specific wisdom.
A Dedicated Focus on This Work: As guides and instructors of this program, our time and energy is fully devoted to the I AM America Teachings. While we recognize that other Ascended Master Messengers and spiritual traditions exist, we do not study them, nor do we provide commentary on their work. Our responsibility is to stay true to this body of knowledge, ensuring that students receive these teachings in their purest form.
Comparative Teachings vs. Core Teachings: On rare occasions, we may reference a comparative teaching from our research or appendices, but these instances are the exception rather than the rule. When something is inordinately interesting and directly relevant, it is footnoted and given credit to the original source. However, this is done strictly as a point of reference—not to merge different paths or validate outside material.
Avoid Bringing in Outside Teachings for Comparison: Many students have studied with other teachers, read different spiritual texts, or followed various Ascended Master Teachings before encountering this program. Some may wish to discuss or compare the I AM America Teachings with other paths they have explored. However, this is not the purpose of this program. Rather than drawing comparisons, students are encouraged to fully immerse themselves in this work without distraction.
Why This Approach is Important: Students who approach this material with a “compare and contrast” mindset often struggle to integrate it deeply. They remain caught between different teachings, looking for validation rather than allowing the I AM America Teachings to stand on their own merits. Those who receive the most from this program are the ones who let go of outside influences, empty their cup, and allow these teachings to reveal themselves without external filters.
Respecting the Integrity of the Teachings: While students may find value in previous studies, this program asks that they put aside other teachings during their time here and focus entirely on the I AM America Teachings. This will allow for a much deeper transformation, free from the mental distractions of comparison, judgment, or expectation.
A Shift in Perspective is Needed: Some students may initially feel disappointed when we do not engage in discussions about outside teachings. This is not because we are uninterested, but because our role is to serve as a clear vessel for this specific body of work. The greatest gift we can offer is our dedication to preserving the purity of the I AM America Teachings—and the students who respect this approach will receive the most from the program.
