The Angel we know as Tobias lived many, many
lifetimes on Earth. His name comes from an apocryphal biblical book that records his lifetime as Tobit, an
upright Jew in the lands of the Middle East.
NOTE FOR CLARITY: "Tobit," the father in the
ancient biblical story, is now known as the Ascended Master "Tobias." Geoffrey Hoppe is the current
incarnation of Tobit's son "Tobias."
After Tobit was blinded in an unfortunate accident,
his son Tobias embarked on a journey to help take care of the family business. His subsequent adventure,
complete with a pet dog, a giant fish, and an angelic companion – Archangel Raphael – in disguise, has
inspired countless retellings in stories and paintings.
After miraculously regaining his eyesight, Tobit
lived many more years before he died and eventually returned for one final lifetime. Once again, he lived as
a righteous Jew in the land of Israel, but this time his fortunes turned sour. Betrayed and imprisoned, his
land and family stolen, Agos, as he was then known, languished in despair for many years. Ill and nearing
the end of his days, Archangel Michael appeared to him in the form of a bird, singing at the window of his
prison cell of wonders far beyond. Agos let go of his anger and hate, and surrendered to the greatest love
he would ever know, that of his own soul. Releasing the physical limitations, he experienced true
enlightenment, left his physical body behind, and assumed his place in the angelic realms as a fully
ascended Master.
Tobias spoke through Geoffrey for ten years, and
then returned to Earth for a long-awaited lifetime of celebration and joy. After years of preparation,
Tobias gave his final message to humanity, released his angelic duties, and fully entered his ten-year-old
shell body “Sam” on July 19, 2009. Over the next 12 years he grew into a young man, experiencing love,
adventure, heartbreak, and freedom. Finally, his desires for this lifetime fulfilled, Sam simply walked off
the planet in December 2022, returning to the angelic realms and service to humanity.
