The Two Universes


This is the point of departure. This is where it all begins. This is a major stone in the foundation of the doctrine of liberation. The following will attempt to provide a simplified explanation of this important key-stone:

There exists two separate and distinct universes, each composed of billions of stars and galaxies.

These two universes are diametrically-opposed.

The Original Universe is Divine, Eternal, Never-Changing.

The fallen universe is undivine, temporary, ever-changing.

The Original Universe is a universe of Absolutes.

The fallen universe is one of relativity, of polar opposites, of duality.

The Original Universe IS.

The undivine universe is a reflection, a modified copy of the Original.

The Original Universe reigns in the Sixth Cosmic Sphere, the cosmic astral plane.

The fallen universe occupies the Seventh Cosmic Sphere - the lowest - the cosmic physical plane.

Both universes exist within the same space. It is not a question of the Original Universe being "up there" while the fallen universe is "down here". Both universes exist simultaneously and inter-penetrate one another. If you do not believe that this is possible, remember that even man's primitive science has established that the atom is composed of mostly empty space. This means that you are mostly empty space. Your sense organs are only able to perceive the apparent "solidity" of the human figure and other material objects, because this is what they were designed to do. This is part of the  "illusion".

That said, the Universal Doctrine holds that "there is no empty space". Therefore, we know that something else can, and does, exist in the spaces between our atoms. There are other atoms, composed of different materials, that we are unable to detect with our human senses. In order to become aware of the Original, Divine Universe, we must first develop the proper sense organs. We must "tune" to that station in order to "hear" its broadcast.

The human life-wave once experienced in the Original, Divine Universe, wielding great powers, working in harmony with the impulses of The Absolute. However, a segment of this life-wave began to speculate with their powers and ultimately mis-used them. This resulted in a portion of that life-wave no longer vibrating in harmony with the Sixth Cosmic Sphere, the Divine Universe. Because they were essentially eternal beings, they could not die, but due to their fallen state, they could no longer remain in the Divine Realms.

In an act of Supreme Mercy, a location was set aside in the Seventh Cosmic Sphere (the cosmic physical plane) for this portion of the human life-wave to experience in. The physical plane vibration was more in line with the vibration of these fallen entities. This is how the fallen universe - the emergency-order - came to be. That is where fallen humanity was exiled.

The eternal portion of the human entity, the Divine-Spark or Spirit-Spark Atom, lies imprisoned in the human microcosm. Its location - the upper right venticle of the human heart. It is the only remnant of our Divine heritage. But it lies dormant, unresponsive to the Eternal Call. Only when we awaken the Rosebud will we have any chance of answering the Call and perhaps, of beginning our journey Home. In the meantime, we are born and we die, repeatedly. We suffer life after life of sorrow, tragedy, pain and lack of fulfillment. That is the nature of this fallen, temporary universe. It was purposely designed to be so. The object was to not allow us to "get comfortable" here, but to batter the mortal soul mercilessly with sorrow until it cried out for Salvation, for freedom from the Wheel of Death-and-Rebirth. Only then can the Rose of the Heart begin to stir, and finally respond to The Divine Call.

The creation story found in the Book of Genesis symbolically documents the creation of this fallen universe. The story of Adam and Eve outlines how humanity fell from the Original Universe. These primordial tales, many millions of years old, have been mis-interpreted and mis-applied by this generation of humanity, due to Ignorance, lack of Knowledge and cunning, behind-the-scenes shenanigans.

If one cannot understand and accept the foregoing, or if one refuses to do so, then one will remain in delusion. If one cannot accept that his present location in Time is different from his former location in Eternity, one will remain lost. If one does not come to the realization that this is not "home" and that one must yearn with all of one's heart, to be shown the Path back to the Divine Kingdom - the Original Universe, then that one remains a prisoner.

If one cannot accept the fact that there are two universes (divine and undivine), and that man "lives" quarantined in the undivine universe, that one remains in darkness, and will not be able to take even the tiniest step towards liberation until he or she begins to seek True Knowledge.

This seeking will only occur once the human entity is thoroughly and completely disgusted, disenchanted, beaten and broken by repeated turns on the Wheel. It is at that lowest point, that nadir, when nothing can any longer be found in the world worthy of desire, that the spell of the delusion can be broken, and the Divine Spark within the human entity can be contacted. It is then that the words which are key to liberation can be voiced:

"Not my will, but Thine, be done".

It all begins with realizing our predicament, acknowledging that we are in a predicament, and voluntarily making the decision to no longer participate in the predicament.

Wake up, if you can. Wake up.
