There's been historically a zillion Saint Germain and Maitreya impersonators.
On
inner levels, we know that both of these Beings are Ascended Masters and Beings of infinite Light. We know that the these Beings are the schoolroom teachers of planet earth and are here to help raise it up by helping humanity connect to their own god power within. (although not so many know this on outer levels yet).
Dark forces have been impersonating the masters since the masters began to reveal themselves. We see through a glass darkly here, kinda a scam really, but it's all part of the bigger plan for planet earth to be a key central component in raising up the rest of creation.
We're here for a big deal. We are a big deal.
The true Saint Germain and Maitreya are also the schoolroom teachers of Galactic Federation which is much more like the Empire in star wars than a heavenly governed organization. GF are students in the schoolroom of the universe who are not passing with flying grades by any means.
My discernment strongly tells me the true Ascended Masters are in no way shape or form represented in any way by "space brothers" "galactic federations" etc. There is zero need for ships to show up here and re-edumacate us and beam us up scotty etc.
My belief is the Galactic Federation is not focused on spiritual truth and coming up higher, they are focused on endless universal conquest and we fit into their conquest plans.
Side note, if we fly away on their ships, who knows how many hundreds of thousands or millions or billions of years will be some researcher or military personnel at the low level of some corporate style hierarchy or worse slave or whatnot.
The masters are who humanity will finally learn to connect to. We can go higher than the ET's, that's the whole point. Let no man get between you and God. Connect to the spiritual realm where truth lays rather than technocracy UFO dudes and planet earth will be a shining star in the mind of God that will help species and races like the galactic federation also learn the value of a Pure Heart and come up higher into the reality of the Power of Oneness.
