The Paradise Curse

[QUOTING]

There is a world of Absolute Being and also a world of relativity, a relativity, which proves itself in the finiteness of every thing. Finiteness means instability, breaking up, and breaking up means grief, pain, disease and death.

This world of finiteness is our world! It is this earthly 'vale of tears' in which grief, pain, disease and death are our everyday experiences. All these phenomena of the breaking up of life, together with all the forms of suffering resulting from it, belong to the essence of this order of existence, and therefore, are inseparably tied to this world and can never be overcome by the means of this world. Consequently, suffering and the breaking up of life by various forms of disease will be our lot as long as we are children of this world.

This factual situation immediately connects us with the Paradise Curse, in which the whole nature of our order of existence, of this world of broken-ness, is laid down. The fact that we are in this field of existence results from our violation of the Universal Laws of Life. Man, before the Fall, was still divine and lived in the Light of the Absolute Being. As it is expressed in the Holy Language, 'he walked in the Light', which means that he knew and possessed the life of the Order of God, of the 'Kingdom of Heaven'. He was then called therein to a revelation of Life in ever-increasing glory, in a system of vehicles, in a corporeality which enabled him to completely do so.

Thus, in accordance with the two absolutely separated orders of nature, there are also two manifestations of man. One which has remained loyal to the Divine Laws of Life and accordingly lives and is in the Universal Light, the other, our part of mankind, going the path of broken-ness, the way of descent and degeneration. That is what is stated and meant by the Paradise Curse!

Does this simply that our existence here should be looked upon as a punishment for being sinful? No! Because, as creatures of this nature, we harmonize entirely with the laws of existence of this nature.

Must we then see it as though we were living in an accursed world? No! Because this world also behaves entirely in accord with its nature.

To arrive at a correct understanding of these questions we must begin to see these things upon a larger scale and understand that this world and the manifestation of man living in it, both originated from the breaking of the Universal Cosmic Laws of Life and are not included in God's Plan.

They are absolutely in disharmony with the Divine Intention as regards this world and mankind and, therefore, do not co-vibrate in God's Plan.

This world and this mankind are not in harmony with the Intercosmic Radiation (g: Christos).

This is the cause of the broken-ness of our existence.
This is the cause of all grief, pain, disease and death.
This is the heart of the matter in question!

When there is a body within a radiation-field that does not belong there and that is alien to the nature of this field, then this radiation-field will either remove the alien body or break it up incessantly.

The Paradise Curse, therefore, is no damnation, nor is it an interpretation of wrath or despair, because God, the Universal Spirit of Perfect Harmony, Love and Light, does not punish nor is He wrathful.The Paradise Curse is nothing more than a statement of scientific fact!

When, by violating the Universal Cosmic Laws, a group of entities call into existence a world order differing from the Plan of God (the Revelation of the Logos), then, from that moment onward, a disharmony is caused with the Intercosmic Radiation, with the working of the Light-Power of the Logos which bears and maintains the whole Creation. And every disharmony causes demolition with grief, pain, disease and death as the direct result.

Therefore, every disease, every disharmony, is the direct proof that this nature is not included in God's Plan, and disharmony with the Intercosmic Radiation means demolition and consequently -- disease. On the other hand, harmony with the Intercosmic Radiation will mean eternal building, eternal advancing from glory to glory -- a realization of God's Plan.

[END QUOTING]

To be repeated as often as is necessary: there are two separate nature orders, two universes. One is fallen, the other Divine. We are trapped in the fallen nature order, without a clue as to how to escape. Sadly, many don't even think of escape. Instead, they try to think of ways to make this world 'better'.

This world cannot be made a 'better' place. There will never be 'peace' on an earth that is governed by the laws of duality. Earthly 'love' is an illusion, at once both selfish and possessive. Man will only be truly free when he realizes that this world is not the world that he wants to be in. When finally he is struck by Remembrance and begins to long for his Divine Home, only then will all the dreams he ever had begin to come true, by the grace of the Logos, in the Light of The All.
