The Gate Of Choice

Duality

2012-02-12T22:00:00.001-05:00

This word is often used to describe the environment that humanity experiences in. This post attempts to offer a deeper insight.

Rising, Shining, Fading

The nature of the True, Divine Kingdom is immovable, immutable, unchanging, ever-lasting.

The nature of the earth is temporal, ever-changing, finite, not lasting.

We buy a new car, eventually it rusts and crumbles.

We place food in the refrigerator, and despite this effort to preserve it, eventually the food will rot.

We "fall in love" and although the flame burns fiercely hot in the beginning, this too, eventually wanes to a steady burn or fizzles out altogether.

No matter what it is, no matter how long it takes, if it is of the earth, it will return to the earth. This is the pattern: Rising, Shining, Fading.

The Pairs Of Opposites

Secondly, duality manifests itself by the fact that every attribute in this fallen universe has its polar opposite. All attributes have a positive and a negative pole, which can be observed by their qualities: positive-negative, up-down, in-out, good-bad, pleasure-pain, etc. This means that attributes are relative...they can be identified only in relation to something else. If there were no 'bad', how would we know 'good'? How can one describe the concept of 'in', if one does not know what 'out' means? 'Pleasure' could not be identified if we were not able to compare it with its polar opposite -- 'pain'. Indeed, the Pairs of Opposites are an essential quality of the dualistic realms.

The Divine Kingdom, which is separate and outside of this emergency order, does not entertain duality with its pairs of opposites. There are only Eternal Absolutes. There is no Rising, Shining and Fading. There is no decay, no lessening. There is only an eternal progression from power to power, from glory to glory.

'The Smallest Part Of...'

The Pairs of Opposites do not oppose one another. However they do maintain one another. As mentioned above, one cannot exist without the other. They are two sides of the same coin. This is why the Universal Doctrine reveals that "good is the smallest part of evil; evil is the smallest part of good". That's what is behind the yin and yang symbol. Here is where man, due to ignorance of this law, perpetuates 'evil' in the world when he strives to do 'good'.

No matter how altruistic, good-hearted or well-meaning an action or thought may be, somewhere in the earthly realm are those who are completely and vehemently opposed to that altruistic, good-hearted well-meaning thought or action. We can take the constant religious wars throughout man's history as an example. The result of this will always be that when one tries to do so-called "good" in this dualistic world, an equal amount of so-called "bad" will be generated, not only by others who oppose the "good", but within the aura of the man himself!

The only way to avoid this "correcting" effect, is to perform all actions without attachment to the results, or to whom it may benefit. Learn to do what is right because it is right, not because "it makes me feel good" or "it helps the world", etc.

Do you realize that there were those who disapproved of the work of Mother Theresa? To these ones, helping the poor and disenfranchised is the height of foolishness. They refer to such people as "useless eaters", and conspire over ways to eliminate this segment of humanity, via surreptitious, but deadly effective means. Thus, even the ultimate examples of dualistic, earthly good will only encourage extreme responses from its opposite pole, dualistic evil.

Even the so-called "heaven"-world of mankind, the "great beyond", is only temporary in its nature. The reflection-sphere is simply the other side of "life" in duality. It is a period of "not-life" for the microcosm; a withdrawal, for a time, from physical, sensory existence that ultimately ends in the inevitable return to material existence. Re-incarnation is simply a Wheel that revolves endlessly - until, of course, one finally makes the decision to learn how to get off of it.

Temporal Beyond The Veil

So, an "eternal Heaven" does not exist in duality. The churches and myriad religions are either lying or confused when they inform their followers that a permanent, "Great Reward" awaits them in heaven. No! All religious followers, when they die, will simply transition to the reflection-sphere and, depending on what they've been brain-washed to believe, will be led to a huge magnificent cathedral, or mosque, or temple, or meeting hall, bedecked in beautiful marble, granite and jewels of indescribable beauty. They will hear the strains of lovely music, smell glorious fragrances and think to themselves: "I've made it to Heaven!". Then, they will climb the golden stairs to their personal Great House of Worship, enter the massive doorway, and see sights and wonders within.

Then the great doors will close, and it's "Gotcha!".

These souls will be 'captured' by one of the Great Aeons which rule the dualistic spheres. Here they will stay for a few hundred years, becoming a part of the Aeon, helping these unholy creations to siphon and leech light-energy from humans still in incarnation. When the time comes around for a return to incarnation, it is guaranteed that they will be forced to incarnate in the home of a catholic, christian, muslim, jewish couple, etc. This guarantees more light-energy for these Aeons of the reflection-sphere, and the cycle of vampirism continues.

These are the characteristics of the duality in which we are trapped. The deck is completely stacked against humanity, which makes it difficult for us to find our way Home. Until man learns to see what's truly behind the screen that we view as 'reality', it will be impossible to work up the desire required to do what is needful to leave this order.

Change. Impermanence. Temporality. It is how things must be in this emergency order of existence. If nature-born man, in his present degenerate state, were allowed to live forever in this material realm, could you imagine the damage that could be caused to humanity, the earth and the solar system? If man were able to permanently attain all that his lower-self desires, he would never want to leave this miserable earth. This is the core reason behind the temporal, changeable nature of things. It is designed to break the human will, to mire us in one disappointment after another until we finally decide that we are tired of The Show, and want to go Home.

That's duality.

Virtue, Moderation

and

The New Way of Life

[QUOTING]

'As far as the seeds of God are concerned, they are few in number, but great and fair and good. They are called Virtue, Moderation and Piety'.

What should we understand by virtue? Virtue, in a hermetic sense, is a consistent behavior in harmony with and on the basis of the powers of the new soul which are being manifested in you. Are you sensitive to the soul? Do you understand, do you experience when the light of the Gnosis is transmitting to you? Well then, a consistently practiced way of life, in harmony with what you thus experience, feel, and understand, is virtue in the hermetic sense. You must begin to believe in that mode of behavior which is thus reveled to your inner vision. You must open yourself to that way of life with your innermost yearning. You must long for it, as the Beatitudes say: 'Blessed are those who yearn, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven'.

Are you already familiar with that mighty, all-consuming desire to begin to live in harmony with what is projected into your soul? When you truly begin to practice this virtue, there will arise within you a powerful binding with the astral power of The Beginning, with the astral Fire-power into which the Logos has etched the Idea underlying human creation.

The important thing now is that you believe from within in the Light-power that has touched you, that you have faith that you will be able to enter the New Life-Field. If you desire, yearn, and believe in this way, if you have faith in your own soul, in the possibilities within you, in the love of God, in the divine impulse to True Birth, then you will be driven to different thoughts. Then order will be established in your thought-life. Then you will think other thoughts, because you are yearning for the New Kingdom.

When a person desires something, his thoughts are always drawn in the direction of what is desired. So if one orientates oneself, full of yearning, towards the New State-of-Life, other thoughts are attracted in accordance with that yearning. And the moment your new mentality purifies you in this way, the astral bonds with all the demons of destruction are broken. To the extent that they are your personal demons, they are dissolved entirely. And to the extent that you participate in collectively created and maintained demons (g: the aeons and archons, the rulers) you will be utterly freed from them. So reflect, in this light, on the hermetic Virtue, on the New Way of Life.

What does Hermes mean by moderation? He means that you must dissociate your self from duality, carefully and consistently. Moreover, he means that you must no longer allow yourself to be victimized by duality. Hermetic moderation means 'being in the world, but not of the world'.

The opposite of moderation is immoderation. To be immoderate in the sense of the Gnosis means to throw oneself full into ordinary life. To be moderate means to take a responsible course, taking into account all conditions, all situations, so that any obstacles to the progress of the new soul-forces are removed as far as possible from the personality-system.

The New Way of Life presents one with many facets. Think, for instance, of the erotic element, which is so powerful in the average person, the sexual urge to which he is subjected. In present-day mankind, at least, the sex-urge is connected with the most terrible demons of the astral field.

This proves anew, then, that the end is nigh. Therefore you who possess a living Soul-power: do make use of the possibilities that have been realized within you! The Virtue that Hermes recommends and the Moderation of which he speaks are extremely necessary. If you enter into these things, divine salvation and the Perfect Knowledge of God will come to you. That is the True Birth of man; that is Liberation

If, on the basis of the Soul-power that now exists within you, on the basis of the Light-power of the Christ, you choose the New Way of Life and cast aside everything that holds you back, in unconditional Yearning and Faith, you will win the prize of the True Soul-man: Absolute Liberation.

One could of course go on speaking for a very long time about these things, in much more detail than we have done.However, we will not do so. If you have understood us, the issue is whether you will try, with us, to apply the formula we have given? If not, your pupilship will not make any sense at all. However, if you are willing to take, with us, the decision to walk this Path, steadfastly and consistently, you will one day discover, as a pious human being, that the dualistic, embryonic field has been rendered evil, and kept that way, by delusion and ignorance. But he who annihilates the delusion within himself will see and experience everything in great purity. In this way, in keeping with Hermes' words, he will turn all the evil into The Good, the Original.

A group of people who have been raised up as to Soul and Spirit, will be able to perform the most grand and magnificent things in a world such as ours.

Living Two Lives

'Dividedness'

[QUOTING]

Paul (in Romans 7) speaks the words: 'Thus I find this law in me: when I want to do good, evil is present with me. Who will free me from the body of this death? Thanks be to God, Christ our Lord,' the pure, divine astral light. And then, in Romans 7, verse 26 there follows the accurate conclusion that he serves the law of God with his mind (which means to say, his soul) but that with his flesh (which means to say the nature-born personality), he serves the law of sin.

If we analyze this conclusion, we realize that many are in the same situation. As far as the mind, the soul is concerned, most of us are engaged in awakening in the Gnosis. By virtue of their soul-state, some people are being led into the life of the Children of God, into the life of glorification, and one can say of virtually all pupils of the young Gnosis that the life of the soul is a real joy to them.

So a mighty development of the soul aspect is underway. Pupils have an unmistakable, intense inner need to participate in the spiritual work and most spare no effort to do so. With their minds they are serving God's law. However, many remain in a state of miserable dividedness. With their minds, they serve the law of God as far as it is possible for them to do so, but with the personality, they are often driven by their earthly demons. With their personalities, they remain firmly attached to their type, to the character which has typified them since their youth. Thus, they are not yet free of their earthly personality, which is so much subject to the law of sin. As far as the soul is concerned, they are engaged in becoming newly-born, but as regards their personality, they are still entirely driven by their earthly demons.

Where lies the solution to this problem? Paul answers this question too, in Romans 8, a beautiful chapter in which he says, 'There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus; who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. For they that are after the flesh, mind the things of the flesh, but they that are after the spirit, mind the things of the spirit'.

The full extent of the difficulty is explained in these words. You know a life of the needs of the awakening soul, in which you are completely satisfied. Quite apart from that is the life of every day, your life at home and in your position in society, and the intimate life behind the curtains of your own room, far, very far away from the Gnosis; completely one with your own type, your own character and the motive power of your earthly demons; the life, governed by the astral currents of the nature of death. Thus -- and there is no denying this --you live two lives.

This threatens to lead to your downfall. Although you may love the Gnosis ever so much, the divided state we have described will increase your misery hour-by-hour. For mind you, the astral influences of the nature of death are constantly increasing in strength so that, if you do not intervene radically in your own life, you will be lost, even though you are soul-born.

How should you intervene? What is the formula? Apart from living the life of the soul, you should no longer live according to the flesh, and you should apply yourself to this very consciously, scientifically and decidely. That is the only solution, however young or old you may be. The younger you are when you begin, the better, because if you lack resilience, if you can no longer summon up the necessary vitality in you nature-born state, it will be an almost impossible task.

'If you remain living according to the flesh, you will die'. Understand well what Paul means by this: in that case, you will remain imprisoned in the embryonic field and you will perish in the Cosmic Night. All the valuable soul-karma that has accumulated in your microcosm will then be destroyed. And in time, perhaps in a few hundred thousand years, you will be able to begin again. We say 'you', but we mean, 'your microcosm'.

'If you remain living according to the flesh, you will die. But if, through the spirit, you mortify the deeds of the body, you will live' as a True human being in God's great, joyful world.

Can one do that? Generally speaking, there is no answer to this question. We say, yes, you are able to do so, We have tried to make it clear that you possess the ability, and you can trace within yourself the extent to which this is so. But whatever your conclusion, you do possess an awakening new Soul-life. And in Romans 8, verse 11, Paul says: 'If the spirit of Christ dwells within you, He will also give life to your mortal body;' your body will be taken up in this mighty process of Regeneration. So, as a person who is engaged in unfolding the soul, you are able to complete this work because this Power already dwells within you.

The Other One (Conclusion)

2012-02-05T21:27:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

The Universal Doctrine says that the original substance, both in this world and in the one above it, is sevenfold and that every situation is divided by degrees into seven gradations of density and nature. And so it goes on, until there is, for us, unknown number of spaces within the original seven which, in turn, are to be considered a unity. This unity, seen as a whole, reveals the entire universe. Everything is contained within it. The divine breath flows within this unity of substance.

However, mankind identifies its experience of space and order, its dualistic life reality with the One Absolute Divine Purpose. We know that the substance from which our mankind lives is totally different from the other substances. That is why the inhabitants of the earth who only experience their own material manifestation or substance and who therefore look through the other substances with unseeing eyes, think that the universe is just an empty space. Yet, there is not a millimeter, not an atom of empty space. An entity of another space in the All-Revelation transferred into our order of time and space would not be able to express himself in our order and would not be able to live in it. If such an entity in "his" space was living an eternal life, then he, being imprisoned in ours would come to know death as a life sensation. Yet, as an eternal being, he would not experience death in our sense. His end would therefore be like the outer darkness.

It appears from all the accounts given by the Universal Doctrine and the Holy Language that a very large, unknown number of entities from a higher, more absolute field of manifestation did indeed sink down into our own, and afterwards were unable to express themselves because of the totally different nature of the dualistic manifestation. Thus they were irretrievably lost. Once they were Children of the Light, now they became children of the darkness. All this can be explained perfectly from a natural, scientific point-of-view. Natural potentials always have limits. We, as lung-breathing beings, cannot breathe in water or live in a vacuum. If our state-of-nature is fundamentally violated, we cannot maintain ourselves. It is the same in a multitude of spaces in the All-Revelation. It is utterly impossible to transfer a creature from its own natural space into another space which is not in agreement with its nature. One revelation is not compatible with another.

Now, it may be known to you from the philosophy of the Rosycross that the dualistic space in the All-Revelation was never intended to be a life-space for human entities. The dualistic space had, and in fact has, a totally different purpose. However, when in the ancient past many entities were submerged in this dualistic space, this chaos of contrasts, and without help would have been irretrievably lost, it pleased the Logos to bring to development a Revelation of Salvation for them. A revelation of Salvation, of healing, is of course always temporary, subject to time; it is not meant to last. Therefore, all our microcosms are subject to this Revelation of Salvation. This accounts for our presence in our microcosms, the presence of the time-space entity (the personality). We, living so vitally in this nature-order are being called to pass through the Rose-Gate and vitalize the imprisoned, submerged, frozen pre-man, the "very ancient one", to drive him, as forerunners, across the borders of this nature-space; in this way enabling the submerged one in our microcosm to return to his fatherland.

The Revelation of Salvation for the "very ancient one" is at the same time a message of salvation for us. To us, beings of time, subject to nature, born for and dedicated to death, is promised eternity in the Fatherland of the very ancient ones if we dedicate ourselves to the task for which we were created. Totally absorbed in our companion, being one with him, we shall leave the spaces of time and enter the spaces of eternal life. When we, as true servants, are willing to fulfill our tasks in the microcosmic house of service, then the Great Miracle will occur, the temporary will be swallowed up by the eternal. By non-being according to nature, by non-action according to the I-of-nature, we are all elected, through the Rose-Gate, to be the Children of God. In order to be able to go this highly joyful way we only have to break through all the delusion inherent in time and space. At the point of separation, at the borders of time, we have to take leave of the forces of time and space.

The Other One

2012-02-04T20:06:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

The course of our lives is played out in space. We speak of an order of time and space, a space in which everything is subjected to a phenomenon we call "time". Hereby we express that everything which has a beginning and an end, shows an ascent and a descent, in brief, is dualistic. The ascent we call birth, the descent, death. At the point where death has become complete and the microcosm is totally emptied, birth sets in again. Everything that is to come has already been. Everything that is, is doomed to depart.

This dualistic order, hence an order of time and space in which death is an irrefutable companion of all and everything, contains very great secrets. It is necessary to unveil some of these mysteries in order to vivify our insight into the necessity of transfiguration. If we succeed in this, we shall be to understand many incomprehensible processes which occur in our lives, to understand their purposes and so to decide either to cooperate fully in such processes or to withdraw from them entirely. When we speak and think about the processes of life and death we in fact limit ourselves almost exclusively to the various forms of life we know and with which we come into contact directly.

We know that the Rosycross teaches that everything we refer to as our personality is subject to death. That is to say, all the vehicles of our personality and the consciousness dwelling therein -- the consciousness we call our "I" -- cannot maintain themselves in the order of time and space, with both its spheres (material-sphere and reflection-sphere). They are totally eliminated, dissolved. What is left of the emptied microcosm which, after being emptied, provides itself with a new inhabitant, this being made possible by the earthly maintaining process. But did you know that another process of death also occurs in every microcosm?

We, nature-born beings of the order of time and space, are in the process of dying while living. This process of dying usually occurs within a period of, at the most, a hundred years. All this is known to us. But in this order of time and space there is still another process of dying which can take millions of years, namely, that of the one who is imprisoned with us in the same microcosm. After we have closed our eyes forever in this material sphere, glimmering on for a short while in the reflection-sphere (man's so-called 'heaven world') the other one in our microcosm will perhaps be in the process of dying for an interminable time.

Until now we have called the other one "the Rose" and we know that this Rose is a point of contact of the gnostic radiation, a contact between two worlds. But a great mystery lies hidden behind the symbol of the Rose; a dungeon, a sepulchral temple in our microcosm in which the "very ancient one" lies enchained, the ever-dying one who bears the afflictions and experiences of all the mortal companions who were very near to him in the order of time and space. However, in this order, great forces are at work to bring about the quickest possible death of the "very ancient one" who is hidden behind the door of the golden Rose, for then only the eternal scar of memory would be left in the microcosm and the order of time and space would no longer be endangered. Great forces are also at work to supply the bread of life to the "very ancient one" in his dungeon, to keep him alive and so prolong his miserable existence, in the hope of releasing him before he dies and then to rescue him from all dangers.

To sum up: in every microcosm two entities are to be found, the self and the other, the "very ancient one". The self, totally subjected to the nature of duality, beginning in time and ending in time and the other one, imprisoned in, though not of this nature. The other one originates from a very different state of life, but has sunk down to ours due to a prehistoric incident. He does not truly live, but is as if frozen in the order of time and space, unconscious, immersed in a trance of death. Almost imperceptibly slowly, his life is squeezed to death in the cold of the world. If that process of death were to be fulfilled, it would be far more terrible than ours. When an entity predestined to be eternal is submerged in a field of death, a situation similar to that of suicide develops for that entity; a situation from which there is no escape and which is designated in the Holy Language as "the outer darkness".

An extremely confused and complicated situation therefore exists in our immediate microcosmic life-field. Two lives, both mortal, are lived in it, one of which is like a slow-motion film. It is possible to explain fully how this dramatic and peculiar situation came about and, indeed, one can see evidence of it in every-day life. For this reason we ought to think of one of the inscriptions found in the sepulchral temple of Brother Christian Rosycross:

"There is no empty space".

If what was quoted above came from a science-fiction novel or movie, it would accepted as impossible to believe, but cleverly entertaining. Well, this is not science-fiction, it is as plain and as real as the Truth can be. It may be hard for some to believe because we have never been exposed to this Truth, which has been purposely and deliberately hidden from present humanity. However, the "mysteries" of the ancient past are now being revealed for consideration by man, during this crucial "period of choice" just before Harvest. Humanity must have an opportunity to know exactly what is at stake in our living, the important responsibility that each one of us has incarnated under and the Great Work we must accomplish in order for our incarnation to be considered a success.

Self-Surrender

2012-02-03T12:37:00.002-05:00

There are two major requirements for those who wish to begin walking The Path.

1. Self-surrender
2. Service-to-others

This post is about self-surrender. On face value, the words seem to imply a "giving up" of all that one is, or some sort of capitulation to one's conqueror. Self-surrender is about none of those things.

Self-surrender means that one has to cease allowing the I-being of the nature-born personality to control every aspect of one's life. No longer should thoughts such as "I want...", "I hate...", "I love...", "I fear...", "I, I, I...." be allowed to careen through our minds. What the "I" wants is not what the soul requires. The average man's soul is very sick, and an intervention is required in order to save the entire organism.

The intervention will be supplied by the touch of the Christine radiations. When this gnostic Light-power from a cosmic plane of existence outside of ours touches the spirit-spark atom of a heart that is open to and able to receive its vibration, a raging battle immediately begins within the microcosm of the nature-born man. It is as if a foreign army has invaded. At once, a battle will begin to rage between the New Soul that is trying to be born and the old, diseased, dualistic soul that is desperately trying to maintain its position as our master.

While this battle rages, the "I", the personality, cannot, must not interfere. We cannot say, "I will now fight against what holds me back", or "I will win this battle for soul-rebirth". No! The "I" can do nothing! The "I" is what has brought man to his current state of wretchedness and depravity! The "I" of nature can do nothing but get in the way. It is thoroughly bound to duality and does not have the slightest idea of how to wage the War of Armageddon that has begun within the microcosm of the man. It is best for the "I" to stand aside, to not interfere. Let the Christ do the work within you, it is written.

That is true self-surrender. When one makes the decision to no longer allow the animal-man to control the direction of the microcosm. Once we allow the Touch of the Gnosis to fill our heart chambers, we are to stand aside and observe as the divine force wields its two-edged sword through the undivine soul. If one stays in tune with these new Aquarian vibrations, while also adopting a new attitude towards life, in time one will begin to notice changes in thought, feeling and actions. The old ways of living will start to lose their allure. That will be the signal that the old dualistic self is beginning to lose its grip on the soul. There will be the proof that The Battle of Rebirth is being won.

Piety And The Path

2012-02-02T23:47:00.001-05:00

[QUOTING]

Being a pious and devout person in the gnostic sense differs entirely from being a 'religious' person. A religious person recognizes and accepts a deity in the same way as a citizen recognizes and accepts a government. He shows a certain reverence for, and a proper gratitude to his god; he performs his religious duties, but otherwise, he remains in bondage, completely of the earth. He celebrates the great days of the Christian year; he knows his church festivals, his religious anniversaries; he remembers Jesus the Lord in His dying and resurrection. However, it will never occur to him that he has to follow Him in His dying and that he can, even must, participate in His resurrection.

It is precisely in this respect that real gnostic pupilship stands or falls. The hermetic philosophy tries to make it clear that by devotion, by the courage of piety, it is you yourself who hold your salvation, your sanctification in your own hands. He who realizes and experiences this will give his speechless thanks to the Divine Architect. The original principle of self-freemasonry is that everyone is capable of placing the imperishable building of his own salvation on the one foundation stone. You should understand that, no matter what the circumstances may be, it is given to every human being to walk The Path of Return. Everyone, without exception, can do so. However, the problem is that theoretical knowledge of this possibility is not at all liberating. You must put theory into practice. You must bring to life the possibilities granted to you through the courage of piety.

And having said this, let us stop pouring out our troubles to one another and saying that it is so difficult and so complicated. If only you can summon up the necessary courage, your certainty will be matched by your experience. The gratitude, which results from experiencing the Living Truth, will cause the devotion of the candidate to increase still further. It then becomes even more positive, more dynamic and more irresistible.

People sometimes say to us: "Alas, who am I? What can I do? I am only a..." and then follows one or another commonplace. If you talk like that, you will remain as you have always been. You have possessed all the possibilities for your liberation from your very birth. Listen now to what the hermetic philosophy reveals:

"Never, my son, will the soul, even if it is in the body, be able to slip down into its opposite, if it has reduced the weight of its debts (karma) so as to grasp what is really Good and True. For if the soul comes to know its Pymander (link to the Spirit)...it will be filled with immeasureable love; it will forget all evil and can be no longer separated from what is Good". If the soul has turned back to its origin and has been resurrected in it, it cannot do otherwise than love, because love is the essence of the Living soul-state.In this way, the aim of true piety is reached.

The aim of piety is to be resurrected in the nature of death (earth 'life'), without being part of it any longer, through soul-birth and its results. This means to celebrate the real Easter event, a personal, everlasting Easter festival; to be in the world, but no longer of the world.

When used in this sense, the expression "in the world but no longer of the world" really acquires a profound meaning. It not only implies vegetarianism, abstinence from nicotine, alcohol and so on; it does not have an exclusively religious meaning. It explains that, if only you make use of the possibilities, you can already be perfectly free although you still live in the nature of death. All this stems from piety.

If you have fulfilled the aim of true piety in this way, "if you return to this state and live in the right manner and die in blessedness, your soul will certainly know whither it should wing its flight. This, my son, is the only way to Truth, which was also walked by those who went before us". All who in the course of world history have gone this way have, without exception "received the Good". All of you, without exception, possess the possibilities to practice true piety. The results of this effort are eternally certain: all who have followed the Way have obtained the Good. They have forgotten all evil and can no longer forsake the good. This can come about in one lifetime, during your life! This is the eternity which can prove itself in your time.

Therefore, you must dispense with all mystical talk; merely repeating the holy language is of precious little importance. Use every second to practice piety. You will then experience that eternity can prove itself in time.

[END QUOTING]

Anything you've ever really wanted in your life, you devoted all of your attention to it. You ate, slept and dreamt it until it either became a reality for you, or you got tired of doing the work that it took to obtain your objective.

Attaining the One Goal of soul-rebirth and liberation from the nature of death is no different. Talk won't do it. One must walk the Path, with one-pointed focus, fierce devotion and true piety.

The rewards that await those who are successful in accomplishing this Great Work are beyond man's ability to describe or imagine. Just know that obtaining "the Good End" is only the beginning.

Eternity calls us. Immortality beckons.

Transfiguration and the Endura

"For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it" Matthew 16:25

[QUOTING]

Transfiguration is a gnostic method of accomplishing the endura, which is the process of completely replacing the mortal, separative, earth-born being with the Original, Immortal, Divine Being, the true Spirit-Human Being intended by the Divine Plan of Creation.

It could be that some people cannot help feeling a senses of disappointment at this statement, because in a little corner of their minds, they still harbour the thought that, through transfiguration, they might somehow be able to preserve their own selves. This is because they put their own interpretation on the words of Jesus, The Lord, which they think mean: He who is willing to lose his life through the endura, shall keep it (through transfiguration). However, since transfiguration and the endura go hand in hand, what will be kept according to Jesus' words cannot possibly involve any aspect of the dualistic being.

Nevertheless, the endura does not mean simply being dead, as seen from the viewpoint of nature. The dualistic ego, as the personality-system's center of consciousness, may be dissolved and gone, while the candidate's old physical vehicle is still alive. Disintegration of matter, the dissolution of the personality-system, can occur later, preferably much later. For it is very useful to be able to go on using the old personality in the service of the Holy Work, to fish people out of the sea of life in the nature of death.

No, the endura is the process of calling the soul to life, and entrusting it with the guidance and governance of one's entire state of being, neither wanting nor being able to do anything else than to accept this leadership unconditionally.

In this way, the candidate becomes like Paul, for he enters the state in which he can say: 'It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives within me'. By saying this, the candidate does not mean that within his I-of-nature some kind of a Christ-aspect is hidden, but he is referring to the soul that has been awakened and reborn in his microcosm.

Not a single vestige of the dualistic consciousness can be preserved on this Path. Eventually, only the life of the old personality-system remains, and it is maintained for as long as is possible and necessary under the guidance of the reborn soul. This situation is reflected in the gospel story of John the Baptist and Jesus the Lord who exist for a long time as two separate beings, until the former had completed the task allotted to his personality. So we can see now that what is 'kept' is the soul, which remains eternally alive in what Lao Tzu calls 'Tao'.

But if, in Jesus' words, there is something to be 'kept', then it follows that, conversely, this something can also be lost. 'He who is willing to lose his life for My sake, shall keep it'. These words imply that if one remains unwilling to follow the Path, then the life-process will operate in reverse, in a fatal sense. Then it will be: He who wishes to keep his life (in the ordinary sense) shall lose it.

So it is possible for a microcosm to be de-natured, if, in the end, it proves unwilling to walk the path of soul-liberation. The sevenfold atom of the Lotus (the Rose of the Heart) will then be detached from the microcosm, which will be dismantled and all the components returned to their source.

So the path of the endura through transfiguration is a logical, natural, and noble path, and the only way of lifting the curse of our existence and reaching a reliable solution to the human problem.

If we stress this point it is because, throughout the ages, the path of the Gnosis has always been discredited as a very unnatural one. But following the Path to which we are called by God can never be unnatural, even though appearances may often point to the contrary.

Only think of the process of metabolism, so widely understood nowadays. It has been proven that every cell in our bodies is periodically replaced. The body's entire structure is renewed every seven years, and by the time one cycle of renewal has come to an end, another one has already begun. This metabolic process gradually slows down as we advance in our years and our vitality decreases, until sclerosis and other forms of degeneration set in. Inevitably, the time arrives when the mechanism definitely ceases to work and the metabolism reaches its inevitable end. The result is zero, absolute zero, so it goes without saying that there is no question of this kind of death ending in victory.

How different it is, though, if one fulfills the endura through transfiguration! This process, too, affects the metabolism, but then in quite a different way. Through transfiguration, all the atoms and cells of the personality-system are changed and charged with Mercury-power, the power needed to become an immortal human being. Through this metabolism, the dualistic personality gradually loses its nature-born character and the whole being is transformed. The Mercury-power is concentrated mainly in the head sanctuary, where it modifies practically all the organs of the brain, resulting in a new faculty of consciousness.

This transformation goes on unfolding with extraordinary potency until, at its peak, almost everything that typifies the dualistic self has disappeared. It has lost its hold on the microcosm. It can no longer contain itself, It has been neutralized.

At the same moment, the fiery body of the Soul-being is set free, as if driven by a mighty fire. In this way, as a result of the new process of metabolism, the pilgrim loses the distinctive aspects of his dualistic self and, at the same time, his True Self is re-born. Then, having fulfilled his task, the pilgrim can depart as a genuine Servant in a 'death' that has brought the One True Life.

And that is why we are asking you to come with us on this Path that leads upwards to certain Victory.

The Rose Of The Heart

As mentioned previously, within the dualistic, nature-born form of men and women there is a single atom composed of Divine substance. Being Divine, it contains all of the attributes of Divinity - immortality, omniscience, omnipresence, etc. Being trapped in nature, it cannot exercise any of its divine attributes until it is liberated.

This wonderful atom goes by many names: 'the divine spark', 'the spirit-spark atom', 'the Jewel in the Lotus', 'the seed-corn of Jesus', and most descriptively as 'The Rose of the Heart'. Within every beating heart, the divine atom sleeps, dormant like a rosebud. But when it is awakened, it will bloom in bright glory and its fragrance will fill the soul.

How do we awaken the Rose of the Heart? Well, we've spoken of Christine radiations. These Universal, cosmic rays penetrate every inch of the Earth and all of humanity, every second of every day. Wave after wave of these subtle, divine radiations wash over and through us all, without being acknowleged or noticed.

Remember that Like Attracts Like. Our dualistic, nature-born selves cannot and will not respond to the Christine radiations, because these rays are of an entirely different nature, they are foreign to duality. As it is written in the Holy Language:

"The Light shineth in the darkness, but the darkness knew it not" John 1:5

Only The Rose can respond to these divine radiations, as it, too, is composed of divine substance. But this response is not automatic, and here is where our part in the process becomes important.

First, we must gain insight as to our dreadful state-of-being. We must recognize that we are trapped in a snare which closes tightly around us, like a vise. We must acknowledge that we are unable to escape this snare without some effort on our part. A certain amount of seeking and 'inner knowing' is involved in order to gather this important Knowledge.

Insight as to the hopeless nature of our plight should lead us to yearning; an incredible, unquenchable desire to escape this prison of duality. When this yearning reaches a certain pitch, The Rose can finally react to the Call of the Christine radiations. It will begin to stir and shake off its eons-long sleep. In order to fan this ember into a steady flame, self-surrender must follow. We must resolve to begin the process of dismantling the "I". We must set aside the selfish, nature-born manimal that we are, in order to make room for The New Man that we wish to give birth to. Again, from the Holy Language:

"He must increase, while I must decrease" John 3:30

In conjunction with our efforts at self-surrender must also come a new attitude of life. We must cease our involvement with the attractions and spectacles of duality. We must cease to react to its multitude of sensory stimulations. We must withdraw from the position of Participant to one of Neutral Observer. We must treat our brothers and sisters with Compassion, Love, Understanding and Respect, no matter who that brother or sister may be, for though many are sound asleep, all bear the divine seed within. All share the same struggle to be free.

We must, by the quality of our thoughts, desires and actions, by the example of our living, by a fundamental change in our attitude towards life, do the work that is necessary to rouse The Rose of the Heart to its full stature. If we are successful in doing this, a special process will begin to take place - a transmutation of the dualistic you. This transmutation represents a process of change for the microcosm. One that will ultimately lead to a death and a rebirth: the 'death' of the old personality, the rebirth of a new Spirit-soul with a manifested new personality. This process is real and follows a certain definite sequence, the details of which we will be given to know of at the appropriate time. What is important now is that we start the process.

You see, the physical human body is a laboratory. Built into the human body are all the tools and implements needed to transfigure, to transmute the human into Something Higher. Sadly, man is not aware of the great treasure he has in the physical body. He abuses it, misuses it, foolishly mistreats it, saps its vitality trough riotous living. The majority of humans transition without ever knowing that they had everything necessary to regain Immortality.

Once we transition, it is too late. An opportunity has been missed. Without the body, transfiguration becomes almost impossible. This is why microcosms have to repeatedly return from the reflection-sphere and continue to incarnate until they have successfully accomplished this Great Work, the One Goal of Humanity.

We must begin this ancient alchemy ourselves, within our own microcosms. No gurus, no masters. No special tools required. No meditations, mantras, diets, obscure formulas or rituals. Simply an understanding of mankind's dilemma and the over-whelming commitment to permanently drop one's service-to-self orientation in favor of Service To Humanity.

Insight
Yearning
Self-Surrender
New Attitude Towards Life

These are the Keys that are required to open The Rose of the Heart. All those who will, are welcome to use them to unlock the door that leads to Liberation.

The One Goal Of Humanity

The Souls of men were once divine. This means that the there was a direct connection between the Souls of men and The All. This Spirit-Soul partnership we call The Heavenly Man. In direct contact with the Will of The Logos (God), these beings worked to carry out the plans of The Logos.

One of these plans involved the development and evolution of a new, material plane of existence, the 7th Cosmic Plane - our Physical realm. Just as it was recorded in the Bible, man - not the degenerate man of today, but Heavenly Man, the Original Man - was supposed to have dominion over all creatures, subdue the earth, etc.

As long as Original Man worked in concert with the Will of the Logos, all was well. When man began to force his thinking through speculation and self-willedness, problems arose. We deviated from the Divine Plan of Evolution. We chose to involve ourselves in our creations. We "saw our reflections" and fell in love with them. As we became more deeply involved with Matter, we began to lose contact with Spirit. Spirit and Matter are opposite poles of the same substance. We serve one at the expense of the other.

Gradually, over vast ages of time, the connection with Spirit was severed. Original Man no longer manifested the Will of the Logos. We had become self-willed creatures, pursuing our separate thoughts, feelings and desires, all bent on self-maintenance.

This has become known as The Fall of Man.

Once immortal, we were now bound to a mortal existence. The only portion of us that retained its attribute of immortality was a single, tiny atom, situated in the center of the microcosm (the soul vehicle), which corresponds to the location of the physical human heart. This 'spirit-spark atom' is all that is left of our immortal heritage. We call this atom "The Rose of the Heart". Thus, our microcosms carry an immortal principle that is trapped in a mortal universe, a universe of change and death. The microcosm cannot die, because it is essentially immortal. However, it cannot truly live until it regains its immortal heritage.

This is why it was truthfully stated that "the Kingdom of Heaven lies within you", because each of us essentially carries a single, immortal atom of the Original Divine Kingdom within the upper portion of the right ventricle of the heart.

Persistent Self-willedness took this segment of the human life-wave on a downward spiral. To prevent humanity from becoming permanently lost in the Physical dimension, a plan was devised to rescue us, the Fallen. This plan is recognized as The Divine Plan of Salvation. In short, it works like this:

Original Man (that's us), is in a state of exile. We have been ship-wrecked, marooned in the lowest known Cosmic Realm. Because we have become self-focused, our selfishness and self-maintaining ways have only served to anchor us in Matter, thus crystallizing our thinking away from Spirit. Such a state-of-being leads us to commit horrible atrocities against our brother and ourselves. If we were allowed to remain in this condition indefinitely, we would ultimately destroy ourselves. One needs only to take a quick look at the world around us to see the unassailable truth of this statement.

To prevent this, another group of Original Men, those who did not fall, set forth to implement the Divine Plan of Salvation. They have been called, among other names, the Elohim. These mighty beings created a universe of physical worlds and placed our microcosms there. The mission of these microcosms was to develop a perfect personality, one that would, while on Earth, recognize the awful dilemma that it was in and take the steps required to liberate itself from Matter so that it could re-unite with Spirit and return to the Original, Divine Kingdom (Sixth Cosmic Realm). This is accomplished through the act of transfiguration.

Transfiguration is The One Goal Of Humanity.

It is not to 'get rich', or 'become famous', or 'obtain power', or 'fall in love', or 'be happy', or 'to enjoy life' (which is really a living death), or 'to make it to heaven' (which is really not an eternal heaven at all), or 'to make the world a better place' (which cannot be done in this dualistic universe). The One Goal of Humanity, the sole purpose for our repeated incarnations is to find the Key that will get us out of here!

To prevent our microcosms from crystallizing beyond the point of salvage (due to our self-willed thoughts, desires and actions) the life-span of the personality was shortened. If a personality did not transfigure during its allotted time on the material-sphere, it was transferred to the reflection-sphere (the so-called 'heaven-worlds'), where the physical and subtle vehicles of the personality slowly disintegrated. The experiences, developments and karma of the past physical life would be stored away in the microcosm, while the personality was discarded. The microcosm would stand empty, except for the accumulated karma and the latent spirit-spark atom lying dormant in the center of the microcosm.

After a period of rest in the reflection-sphere, the microcosm would respond to the urge to incarnate once more and, through the agency of vast Cosmic Intelligences, create a new personality for that purpose. The new personality would incarnate in the material-sphere and try once again to achieve The One Goal of Humanity.

How may times have we made this journey? Hundreds of thousands of times, perhaps even millions. You are the umpteenth personality to inhabit your microcosm. You are the current composite of all the personalities that preceded you. If you are unsuccessful in your task to obtain the One Goal of Humanity, then your incarnation will terminate in failure. When you transition (i.e., 'die'), you as a personality, will eventually disintegrate as outlined above. Your microcosm will generate a fresh personality for its next sojourn on earth.

The only way to maintain your current personality is to succeed in completing The Task that your personality has been created for - you must transfigure. You must re-establish the link between Spirit and Matter. At the bare minimum, at the very least, you must earnestly begin this process. If the Link can be re-established, then the personality will not be dissolved, but will re-unite with Spirit to begin the journey Home.

How is the Link re-established? It begins with the awakening of the tiny atom that lies sleeping in our hearts, waiting for us to respond to the call of the Gnosis.

To Point The Way

"Now is the time to make The CHOICE. Which will you choose? The Ultimate Decision is yours alone. Here, I attempt only to point the way, so that you may find the tools you will need to make this critical decision. - from this blog's profile.

To "point the way" has always been the ultimate mission of this blog. Over the past few years, this writer has attempted to do that. The over-riding concern has always been to take care to not lead anyone in the wrong direction, or on wild-goose chases. There is enough of that in the spiritual supermarket that is victimizing the seekers of the world today.

We have come to a point where a certain destination has been reached, a direction of Truth. Standing at this milestone, this writer has an obligation to point others in that direction, or else risk failure in this part of the Mission. There are Others who are waiting for you to make The Discovery. There are Others waiting for you to link up with the Gnosis, acquire True Knowledge, partake of the Living Waters, pursue The Great Goal. These servants of the Divine Plan stand ready to assist in any way possible.

As always, this writer only points they way. The decision to continue your seeking in this higher direction remains yours alone.

The Message - Conclusion

2012-01-15T16:03:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

It might happen that entities, members of the Brotherhood of the Light, want to reveal themselves to you in one way or another. But remember, in whatever form they may appear to you, in the near of distant future, they will always do this with the sign of the living Rosycross. They will never make a flattering remark with regard to any aspect of your I-being. They will never, to put it in a popular way, butter you up and put you on a pedestal you do not deserve.

After all, for the time being, we are all mere mortals. We are all pilgrims who, stumbling laboriously, go to the liberating life. And don't think that even one of these pilgrims could walk this path with uplifted head and proudly congratulating himself. Reflection-sphere entities that want to strike up a relationship with you are always focused on your I. That is an important signature you can always recognize. And they will always try to praise you with flattering words.

The Brothers of the Rosycross, on the contrary, will never resort to flattering language. They will always and without exception confront you with your task as pupil and servant of the Great Work.

Thus, we see on the one hand an intense and brand new effort to save all of humanity and, at the same time, an intense and strong effort to help all who have prepared themselves to reach the Great Goal. You will now understand what a glorious, what a delightful privilege it is for all of you, as pupils of the modern Spiritual School, to become acquainted with all of this in advance and that already now, an intense attempt is made to turn you into pioneers. Into human beings with a pair of strong arms that will be able to drag along those who have more mental problems than you do and who have had to change in a fraction of a second.

Imagine that you had been focused on the horizontal plane for your whole life, that all your time, from second to second, has for example been directed to your business or your study. What a tumble, what a change you will have to make, when the voice from above resounds and when you have to devote yourself to the task assigned to you in the name of God!

We still hope to be allowed to speak to you often about all of this, especially about the mighty developments humanity is approaching rapidly. And we hope and pray that we could respond, to a certain extent, to the task that the Brotherhood has given us, namely to open your eyes for the things that are to come. And we also hope that, although we cannot force it, we will find you prepared to go with us and to make you understand that the days and the hours of the Apocalypse have arrived.

What is going to begin now is nothing more or less than what the Apocalypse calls the 'Kingdom of a thousand years'. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Seven-Spirit says to the churches. Whoever hears and acts accordingly, will not be harmed in the coming development, which will obviously be a revolution.

This assurance we may finally transmit to you in the name of God, in the name of the Brotherhood.

[QUOTING]

It will be clear that a most important aspect of these processes of regeneration concerns the attitude and behavior of the various churches and their servants. We know that there are many serious theologians, who are yearning for the healing of humanity and who would be prepared to put up with anything to bring in true Christianity. When these theologians, guarded by the Church of the Spirit, fathom what true Christianity means, they will certainly be prepared to co-operate wholeheartedly.

But you understand that all theological twists, intellectual artificiality and the subsequent practices carried out in the churches will be swept aside by the rejecting attitude of the people themselves. As far as is necessary, the unmasking of the self-assured will take place in this way. We hope with all our heart that this entire development can be led in the right direction for the benefit of all.

We will now end the explanation of this aspect of the things to come and draw your attention to another aspect of the activity of the Universal Brotherhood, which we...must necessarily become familiar with in order to not be victimized. We are pointing to the great change and transformation of everything which we call the reflection-sphere, i.e. the spheres on yonder side of the veil of death.

For years we have explained that the entire reflection-sphere has been created by the way of life of humanity. Therefore, if the Brotherhood would wipe out the reflection-sphere in a forced way, this would not be a real solution. It should be that because of the re-education of humanity the reflection-sphere becomes superfluous and therefore liquidates itself, as it were.

That is why you must take into account that all present inhabitants, all present developments of the reflection-sphere will shortly -- for this has already started a long time ago -- be found in extreme distress. You will understand what dramatic developments are going to take place in those spheres of our planet, yes, are already developing at this moment. The intensifying Aquarian radiations and the atmospheric changes related to them accentuate the etheric planes of the earth in particular. If the racial body of the man in the street were to remain as it is, massive lunacy would break out. The intensifying etheric influences, to which those concerned would become highly sensitive, would then cause the greatest disasters possible.

That is why is is expected that the great danger of over-shadowing (g: a form of possession), or at least of a very undesirable influence, may develop, especially with regard to sensitive people. We fervently hope that you can imagine this. That is why all of you must pay sharp attention to your mode of life, to the signature of the future work of the Universal Brotherhood.

The Universal Brotherhood will also purify and cleanse the etheric planes and neutralize the reflection-sphere in accord with the process of re-education that will develop from below upward. This must be brought about in a perfect interaction, as we have tried to explain. Hence, many reflection-sphere entities will, during their flight, in extreme distress, try to hold on to entities still living on earth. That is why all of you are advised to shake off any danger by focusing exclusively and as positively as you can on the living Brotherhood of the RosyCross, on the mighty etheric body of our Father, Brother, Christian Rosycross.

2012-01-13T22:03:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

The sign we were just speaking about is called 'the sign of the Son of Man' in the Bible. It is the intervention by the Universal Brotherhood in what could be called an electromagnetic disturbance, a short circuit of accumulated forces in the atmosphere. It is an intervention in the ravages brought about in the atmosphere by again another, as yet not mentioned group of scientists, namely by those who practice space travel at the expense of what they don't know, with numerous rockets, many experiments and, don't forget, by detonating nuclear bombs in the very high high strata of our atmosphere.

All of this has developed a tension field that not only harms the health of humanity, that is, of all those living on earth, but that is detrimental to the minimally required harmony between the earth and the other parts of our macrocosm (the solar system and beyond). This relationship, this unity with the universe, has been intensely disturbed by these pranks resulting in a first and clear reaction of the different atmospheric strata, visible and noticeable by all of humanity.

This is the sign of course, the sign of the most extreme crisis the universal Brotherhood has been waiting for in order to begin its radical work. What Rudolf Steiner has announced and what has been quoted in the ritual, is now, in our days of the twentieth century, being fulfilled. At least it is now beginning.

Only when all these groups of authorities are prepared, though more or less forced, to listen and obey, when they are shocked out of their self-assurance, can humanity be saved from certain ruin. As you know, we have been allowed to tell you already: that is what the Brotherhood is focused on.

Then, as has been said earlier, a re-education of all humanity must take place that has to be started by the ordinary authorities of every state and every nation. Therefore, the idea is absolutely not to try to overthrow an entire civilization or to effect a truly dualistic world revolution, as has been the case in the past centuries and years. That is certainly not the intention of the Universal Brotherhood.

You know, and you can read it in the Holy Language, that every nation has the government it deserves. The governments of the European nations and of the countries outside Europe, all governments known to you, will by the intervention of the universal Brotherhood be required to lead their people, their countries, in a totally new organization. This re-education of all of humanity, guided by their own responsible authorities, will obviously be accompanied by a series of international measures. This will happen immediately in order to prevent further explosions in whatever way.

In this way, a series of developments of an economic and social nature will occur in the world, which will of course take years, in order to help humanity adjust to the wholly different era it has entered. Many scientific groups will have to re-orientate completely to adjust to the changed social situation in order to be able to preserve their authority. Thus science will not be dethroned, but it will be forced, if it does not go along voluntarily, to comply with the requirements of the Universal Teachings, with the requirements of the plan of the great Brotherhood.

In this way, all causes leading to new disharmonic karma will gradually be destroyed. And every human being will have the time and receive the opportunity to adjust himself completely. In short, this regards a process of healing of everyone. If this process of healing has progressed to a certain point and the most serious mental conflicts have been eradicated, it can be expected that the human being of the crowd will mature to understand the one mighty goal of humanity. Then all prisons will become superfluous and empty. Then also fewer hospitals will be needed, because this mental healing of all of society and of all of humanity will make numerous diseases and disharmonic behavior vanish completely.

The following is presented for your information. We have been made aware of the probability of some sort of "Sham Return Of The Christ" scenario. This post presents another scenario, one that will be enacted in true Service to mankind.

Keep all of this information in your back pocket, so that when the time comes, you may have help in discerning that which is true from that which is not.

[QUOTING]

Let us try to clarify how the new World Brotherhood, with its Johannine signature, will be active as soon as the signal for it has been given. The great problem is to make a start, a start that will consist of an event occurring in the atmosphere as a sign that can be observed by many people, by many nations and therefore cannot be denied, and that will be mentioned by the world press, among others. This sign that, however one may try to explain it away, will be recognized by many as a sign that has been prophesized. We do not want to indulge in speculations; we will return to this shortly.

Immediately thereafter, a number of incidents will take place that relate to events that will also draw our attention and that cannot simply be hidden and that concern the ordinary social aspect of things. Various groups of authorities such as councils of ministers, other government groups, associations of scientists, all busy carrying out their task in one way or another, the directors of large enterprises of different kinds, assembled in their board rooms -- all these groups of persons ruling the world will be confronted with, to them, most extraordinary situations.

Members of the Universal Brotherhood will visit the meetings of all of these groups of an unmistakably authoritarian nature at psychological moments. These members will appear in their invisible, etheric bodies, while only their voices will be clearly audible. They will, when they visit these meetings and study committees, address these people for example, as follows.

'Gentlemen, we address you here in order to make it clear to you that your whole present activity must be turned around. In the way you act now, you will not be able to carry on. We speak especially to you, because it is your task to be the servants of humanity in one way or another. That is why it will be necessary that from now on you are only focused on the Perfect Salvation, the absolute needs of all of humanity, and that this is the basis of all your activities from now on.

Every form of violence should be relegated to the past. All instruments of violence must be destroyed. No harm, in whatever way, should be inflicted on nature created by God or on the human kingdom or on the animal kingdom. And where you are occupied with experimental activities which would serve these ends in whatever way, these should be discontinued immediately.

Internationally, you will be called upon to lead, each in his own way, each with his own task, a totally different and new way of education for and of all humanity.'

Thus the voice speaks. Some of the Brothers will quote words from the Bible: 'Those that hold the seven stars in their right hand and walk among the seven golden lampstands speak to you'.

This message will be transmitted as strongly as possible, simultaneously and all over the world, to those who are eligible for it. And their reactions will be awaited. All measures will obviously depend on these reactions.

All that resist or simply deny the message received will, for some time, as a sign that all this is meant very seriously, be neutralized physically and mentally, as it were, in the subsequent days and weeks without dying. This is a neutralization that will be announced in advance to those concerned. For some time, they will be lifted into the etheric sphere, i.e., into the Living Gnostic Body that is being concentrated around the earth aiming for exoteric effects, for outwardly directed activity.

Perhaps you may have had an accident in your life. You have, for example, fallen down and been unconscious for some time. It is then possible that after such a fall, although you are seemingly unconscious, some brain centres still continue to function normally and that you are therefore purely, clearly, positively conscious in the etheric spheres.You can imagine what happens to such a person. There is no complete unconsciousness, as when you receive a blow on the head with a hammer. The person concerned is led into a state of mental neutralization in a way we cannot explain now, and he becomes conscious, suddenly, in the etheric spheres, in the sphere of the Living Gnostic Body of Christ.

At that moment, we cannot speak of reflection-sphere hallucinations, but the person concerned is lifted into a great, unbelievable, other reality that is new to him. And he remembers that this state-of-being has been announced in advance. There, the true meaning of life is made clear to him, and to what purpose he is called 'man'. To what he is called as, for example, government authority or as an employee of a large company. Why he has studied economics, why he graduated in a branch of science in order to serve humanity in total self-surrender in that way.

When he has learned this lesson, he is returned to his former state-of-being. For you understand, that the great holy Brotherhood cannot maintain any authority in whatever position, if the person concerned does not wholeheartedly and in complete self-surrender co-operate in the realization of The Great Plan.

You understand that this very spectacular mode of action will be necessary to convince all these self-confident people that there are other powers in the world than those of the church, the state, the police and the guns. All authorities must be shocked in their self-assurance in a way visible to the whole world. All this will happen in the way described. And remember that this action will occur at a moment of which it is said: It is not a minute too soon!

Two Paths

2012-01-11T22:31:00.001-05:00

[QUOTING]

This is a moment of cosmic choice for the people of Earth. We have been given the power to build new worlds, or to destroy our own world. We stand at the threshold of Universal Humanity...or at the brink of Armageddon.

We see beyond us the New Jerusalem, the vision of ourselves in the future, which Christ came to Earth to reveal. We also see the abyss between here and there.

The New Jerusalem is the next stage of evolution. It is a community of natural Christs, co-operating with each other and God, endowed with the capacity to overcome hunger, planet-boundedness, death and separation from the universal community of life in the many mansions of this infinite Creation.

[The common, exoteric interpretation of] The Revelation to John described the violent path to the New Jerusalem. It is the way of a planet whose inhabitants refuse to give up their selfish life.

In this text, we discover a loving path to the New Jerusalem. It is a path for a planet whose people choose to use their power, in all its splendor, for the transformation of the whole body of humankind.

The choice is given to our generation. There are alternatives to the Tribulations. There are graceful births towards universal life. This text...is written for those who seek to work together for the Planetary Birth, a peaceful Second Coming of the Christ within and beyond -- the birth of Universal Humanity.

2012-01-08T05:25:00.001-05:00

[QUOTING]

We hope that it will now be clear to you that every Path of Resurrection must always be commenced with and by the True Self. And also in this respect, cosmos and macrocosm cooperate with the human being. But note: first it was a matter of building the human being, of the descent, the involution, the realization of the personality. After that, it was a matter of making the personality live as a True Self. Understand that the construction of the personality required other forces than those needed for making this personality live. That is why now, at the beginning and during the development of the apocalypse of the resurrection, a new heaven and a new earth are spoken of.

That is the reason why we are now experiencing the effect of the first three planetary influences of the new heaven-earth, which, as the ancient Rosicrucians have already said, have appeared in Serpentarius* and Cygnus*. These three forces, these three mystery planets, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto, are now preparing us, are making us ripe for the Morning of the Resurrection. These three influences do not build, because there is nothing left to be built with regard to the human being. They are driving him onward, they are driving him into the Great Conflict of life, into a greater conflict of life than ever before. They are leading him on an ever-narrowing path in order to stimulate him ultimately to realize his Self. Therefore, do the things that must be done! Fulfill the demands of our modern time! Fulfill God's counsel!

To this end a three-fold stimulus to action is absolutely necessary : one influence affecting the human heart sanctuary, one influence affecting the human head sanctuary, and lastly, one force that must and will prove which person is suitable, or possibly not yet suitable, to walk the New Paths.

When someone proposes to you: 'Go this or that path', then it is up to you to go or not to go. Then you might say: 'I will perhaps decide tomorrow whether I'll do it or not.'. Then it is up to you either to react immediately or to forget about it initially, as happens so often in life.

However, you will no longer be able to ignore the coming process of development that has now commenced. You must react, you won't be able to do otherwise. And so, obviously, it will become clear who will be found to the left and who to the right of the dividing line.

* Serpentarius is the ancient name for the constellation Ophiucus. In 2011, you may have heard mention of this constellation, situated between Scorpio and Sagittarius, being referred to as the so-called "13th sign of the zodiac".

* Cygnus is the constellation in which Kepler-22b was very recently discovered (December 2011). Kepler-22b is described by astronomers as "an earth-like planet".

The significance of the role that these two constellations were to play in mankind's future was first mentioned in a Rosicrucian manifesto named Confessio Fraternitatis, published in 1615 A.D.

"Yea, the Lord God hath already sent before certain messengers, which should testify His will, to wit, some new stars which do appear and are seen in the firmament in Serpentarius and Cygno, which signify and give themselves known to everyone, that they are powerful Signacula of great, weighty matters." - Confessio Fraternitatis

[QUOTING]

For a number of years, humanity has been taken up in a mighty intercosmic turmoil, the turmoil of the Great Transfiguration., which is taking place in several stages. It is a turmoil that touches all of humanity, passing nobody over. It confronts each of us with the great choice: resurrection or de-naturation.

An example from the past will illustrate what we mean. In the days of Atlantis the atmosphere of the earth was much heavier and denser than it is today. It was something between air and water, and respiration as we know it today was then, organically, completely impossible. At the time, two organs lying to the right and left side of the neck and co-operating with the thyroid gland, inhaled the water vapor together with the oxygen and separated them into air and water. In this way, the excess water was eliminated from the human system.

Lungs, as we posses them today, had not yet developed and were present in the body only as the germs of a new respiratory system. Only when the earthly atmosphere began to change, becoming much thinner, more tenuous and brighter, and the sun began to break through the thick layers of cloud, did the pulmonary system become necessary for maintaining life in the new atmosphere. All those who had not adapted themselves to this fundamental change in the earth's atmosphere in time had to perish, or at the very least, degenerate. The present microcosmic turmoil has, in fact, an identical purpose, albeit on a different plane.

The Atlantean intercosmic turmoil was, among other things, intended to free and clean the human head sanctuary of the excess water with which it was filled to the brim as a consequence of the atmospheric conditions prevalent at that time. After this cleansing, the human thinking faculty was liberated and from then on, the human being became more and more conscious of the nadir of materiality. When the first Atlantean refugees arrived in great numbers in the, at that time, uninhabited, continents humanity reached the lowest point of its involution in a process, and it had become fully conscious of this. For this reason, a multi-faceted cultural period developed after Atlantis in order to make humanity conscious of all aspects and characteristics of this nadir. In this way, the world and humanity gradually approached the state of a totally different and new Apocalypse, namely, the period of the Great Resurrection.

Before we continue, we have to draw your attention to yet another aspect of the human development. The microcosm (g: the "soul" of man) contains two paths of development, which nobody should lose sight of, and before which, all of us are placed. Firstly, there is the path of development from the point of departure, an involution leading to a predetermined nadir, and secondly, there is, out of that nadir, an evolution back to the point of departure.

Perhaps you understand the reason for this: the microcosm contains a plan and all the possibilities to realize that plan, whereby cosmos and macrocosm fulfill a leading, stimulating, and therefore helping task. But if this Divine Plan is to be fulfilled by and in all of this, it is necessary that a method of self-realization be put into practice as soon as possible. In the beginning, this was still completely impossible. Then the microscosm was endowed with a spirit-spark only and did not yet possess anything else. Certainly, this spirit-spark contained everything, but it had to be realized, it had to be brought into manifestation. To this end, first a personality had to develop in the microcosm, a mortal personality. After all, the personality did not realize itself, but had developed in a process as the result of external influences that were assisting in the realization of The Plan.

However, immortality had to become a matter of self-realization, so that on this basis, the Divine Plan could be called a complete success. As soon as somewhere in the world a human being might rise up out of the nadir of materiality through self-realization and realize The Plan, a cry of joy would resound through the whole universe, as proof that the Divine Plan had been realized. That is why the genesis of the personality precedes the process of self-realization.

Therefore, the mortal personality had to be formed by the external focus; next, it must be made conscious of itself; and then, in this growing consciousness, it must be made susceptible to all kinds of "good" and "evil". The personality must pass through many kinds of experience, both of good and evil, so that, we repeat, this would ultimately result in the True Self in the microcosm, and finally a start could be made on the Great Work, the Mysterium Magnum. This means: the development of the Resurrection, the Great Revolution, the Transmutation of the mortal being into the immortal one.

Uninspired, But...

2012-01-06T01:40:00.000-05:00

Haven't written in a few days. One should only write when inspired to do so. Haven't felt any inspiration in the last several days. Not sure what the issue is.

i will say this much: one cannot over-emphasize how important it is for us to change our attitude of life. The Key to Harvest is to live a life of Selfless Service-To-Others. When our thoughts and desires are focused towards the welfare and well-being of others and away from the self, we attract higher quality ethers. Possession of these higher ethers are instrumental for purification of the microcosm, awakening of our spirit-spark atom and assisting in the process of transfiguration.

A single unselfish thought or desire carries much more power than a hundred negative and selfish ones. Therefore, when we behave unselfishly in our willing, thinking and desiring, we help bring purification and healing not only to our own microcosm, but to humanity in general, as well as the Earth.

It may sound overly simplistic, but the Truth usually is just that -- Simple.

Be Unselfish.

Serve Others.

Seek True Knowledge.

Be In The World, But Not Of The World.

You Will Experience The Harvest Without Fear.

2012 -- What If Nothing Happens?

2012-01-01T03:04:00.000-05:00

Wrong question. The question should be:

What If Something Happens, And I Am Not Ready?

It is much more critical that we live our lives as if they were going to end tomorrow. If our incarnation comes to a close and we have not lived lives that will have served to open the Rose of the Heart, our living will have been in vain, and 2012 won't matter.

Be reminded that the world is not going to "end". The world is moving into a new phase of existence, one in which the gross, physical body will no longer be of use. New worlds are opening up for us and we must use the precious little time we have left to prepare ourselves.

Preparation is work. It means that we learn to stop focusing on our personal selves, our earthly needs, our earthly desires, our earthly disappointments, our earthly aspirations and goals. It means that we learn to put others before ourselves, to think, feel and act with the good of all in mind. When we serve the group, we serve ourselves anyway.

THIS IS HOW IT IS GOING TO BE ONCE THE COSMIC REVOLUTION IS COMPLETE. THE NEW WORLD IS NOT FOR THE SELFISH, THE EGO-CENTRIC OR THE UNCARING. THE NEW WORLD IS LOOKING FOR A SPECIFIC TYPE OF SOUL TO BECOME A PART OF THE NEW RACE, AND THAT SOUL MUST BE ONE THAT LOVES, SERVES AND PUTS THE "I" ASIDE SO THAT IT MAY SEAMLESSLY BLEND IN WITH GROUP PURPOSE. THERE CAN BE NO "HALF-STEPPING". THE "SHIFT" WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE MUST BE PERMANENT AND COMPLETE.

Don't make the mistake of those who are choosing to "wait and see". Don't wait until the last minute to change your focus, to tune in to the New Vibration. It is important that we begin to walk the Path as soon as possible. In the event that death overtakes us before the Great Transition, we will still be counted among The Remnant if we have made sufficient progress. Those who pass on before The Shift will gather with all those candidates who have passed on before. The Harvest will take place on both sides of the Veil.

Those who are incarnate at the time of Harvest will have the opportunity to transfigure while in the body. This Event, to be undertaken by many thousands of souls world-wide will be part of a larger event connected with Earth's own transformation (for more detail on this, read "Servers Of The Divine Plan" on http://thenewcall.org/).

It is almost impossible to relay the importance of the time that we have left to us. Don't waste it worrying about dates and destruction. There is enough circumstantial, astronomical, prophetic and historical evidence to indicate that we are indeed nearing the conclusion of VERY SPECIAL PERIOD IN TIME. What approaches is not an ending, but a New Beginning...please try to remember that. There will be a Remnant...there always is. It is by our living that we will demonstrate our suitability for Harvest. How we live from here on out is entirely up to us.

all love,

Why Was This Man Killed?

2011-12-30T02:17:00.001-05:00

He came to this planet to deliver a Message of Truth to all of mankind. For those who believed upon this Universal Message was extended the promise of Life Eternal.

He was mortal-born, to a world that was in darkness and spiritual poverty. A world in which humanity was imprisoned by its self-created nightmares. He freely offered to all who would listen, the keys to liberation.

He walked and dined among the disenfranchised, the lower strata, the throw-aways, the dregs of society. He held court with those who thought they were nothing and impressed upon them that they were something, that they carried within their physical hearts, a sleeping Divine spirit-spark atom.

He taught them the means of awakening this Spark, and showed them the Path that, if walked without deviation, would lead to transfiguration from a mortal state to a state of Immortality.

He offered to mankind, Gnosis; the Universal Teachings; the Doctrine of Transfiguration.

He came to this world and gave completely of himself, so that humankind would have the opportunity to be free.

So, then why was he assassinated?

He was murdered because he was a threat to the "rulers" of this nature order. This dualistic nature order, this world of opposites, is bent on sustaining itself. In order to do that, it must steal light-energy from the mortal souls that inhabit the physical realms. To this end, humanity must be kept in darkness, so that humans will live in conflict and die in ignorance. This results in microcosms (souls) being forced to generate new personalities before returning to the physical plane again, and again, and again. This chaining to the Wheel of Death-and-Rebirth ensures that the invisible rulers of this 3rd density plane will be able to sustain themselves indefinitely.

Any person or idea that challenges the authority of the invisible rulers, the archons and aeons of this system, will be opposed and brutally attacked by their servants. In the case of this man, Jesus, those servants of darkness were the following:

The Sanhedrin (the Seventy), the Pharisees (rabbinical class), the Sadducees (secular class), the scribes (lawyers) -- these Judeans were the dominant religious and social powers of that era, tightly bound by the dark influences of the invisible rulers (this has not changed). Through guile, cunning, slander and calumny, they conspired to have this man "neutralized". Because they could not do it themselves, they coerced the Roman state into doing their dirty work. Why?

Because people were listening to him.

The Truth that he offered was being welcomed into their hearts, new disciples were being made daily. The power of the Gnosis, as always, was self-evident in his teachings and readily accepted by the lost and the fallen as the Keys to Salvation. Their heart-centres were opened to the Christine radiation.

To walk The Path in complete self-surrender means to take power away from the rulers of this world. The archons and aeons are weakened by every human who makes the decision to put away selfishness and live to serve others. Thus, the dualistic order was threatened, and the "powers" and "authorities" responded with fury.

He was mercilessly crucified, his blood spilled. A portion of this Divine fluid seeped into the earth, while a portion was captured and preserved in the Grail held by Joseph of Arimethea. At the moment of his death, the sun was eclipsed and the earth shook.

Jesus, The Christ of the Piscean Age, harmed no one, threatened no one, except for those who were concerned with the natural dualistic order of things. He brought eternity into time, and lived a life of such power and truth that it is remembered in detail to this very day (although frequently mis-interpreted and mis-represented by the "official" churches). His death resulted in the anointing of the lower worlds, a taking away of a part of the power of the aeons, so that future humanity would have the greatest opportunity to awaken and take advantage of Divine Grace in order to effect their own liberation from matter.

He allowed himself to be brutally murdered so that he could effect the resurrection that he had spoken of to his disciples. After his resurrection, he showed himself to many so that they would have the necessary physical proof to seal the Truth within their hearts. He anointed his closest 12 and charged them to carry the Truth of the Universal Doctrine to a fallen world.

Thus, unfolded a milestone period in the administration of the Divine Plan for the Salvation of Mankind. Two thousand years ago, a Seed of Divinity was re-planted in the Earth, and that Seed has grown steadily ever since.

This man lived and died to demonstrate conclusively to all of humanity, the following:

"That which I have done, you must do also. Therefore, be my followers".

Not 'follow' as in being lead, but 'follow' as in making the decision to walk the very same Path of Return. It is for this reason that a Great Messenger was killed. He died so that we might live.

It is now up to us to prove that His life and death were not in vain.

A Reminder Of What's At Stake (Re-Post)

2011-12-27T22:38:00.000-05:00

APPROXIMATELY every 25,000 years the hour of Judgement Day strikes for planet Earth, and each 75,000-year period represents a major cycle which yields its own major Judgement Day. These most important occasions present great catalysts for the spiritual advancement of accomplished souls, and some aware persons have more aptly termed such a momentous period 'The Harvest Time', signifying that all those who have learned well the lessons of the physical plane will be harvested into, or promoted to, a higher, more expansive level of experience.

In the past, only those persons possessing an indomitable will and unyielding diligence have succeeded (in being harvested early). Today, however, at the end of this 75,000-year major cycle, and consequently due to the tremendous spiritual opportunity afforded each and every person on Earth, it is much easier for all humanity to ascend in consciousness, and groups of souls will be harvested during the birth of the New World in accordance with their ability to attune to the grace of the present period and to thereby succeed in raising the frequency of their consciousness, for the key to success at the Time of Harvest is vibration. Each individual's consciousness (which is an integral part of the planetary vibration) must be raised to a minimal level in order to qualify for graduation into the New World

Leading up to the 'Day of Reckoning' when the 'Book of Records' will be opened for everyone to see, all those who have failed to take full advantage of the spiritual opportunities afforded them during many lifetimes will depart from the rounds of Earthly incarnation where a more advanced life-expression is about to begin. However, this does not mean extinction or eternal damnation of the soul, even though it does impose a considerable though incalculable delay to its onward journey.

While such delay is unquestionably serious, nevertheless the universal Law of Recompense knows no biased leniency and so can show no special sympathy for those who do not make the grade. Such underdeveloped souls are clearly in need of more experience upon the battlefield of physical-plane life, and that experience they will be given by law, even though it may mean innumerably additional lifetimes, many of which will include much suffering. Conversely, all those souls who successfully meet the greater requirements of the impending Harvest Time will be liberated from the wheel of rebirth and will be entirely free of the obligation to incarnate in any of the fallen worlds on any planet ever again.

So we may now recognise that, with regard to today's cyclic spiritual opportunity, there are three distinct groups:

1) Those who, having failed to learn the lessons of the physical plane over many lifetimes, will be forced to leave the Earth in order to later incarnate on another physical world so that they may begin again to learn by way of the unique experiences and opportunities that are available only in the third density.

2) Those who have learned sufficiently from and passed the tests of the physical-plane school and who will have therefore earned their promotion to the fourth- or fifth-density classroom of life where they shall proceed with their higher learning. However, it should be understood that such a graduation does not mean Liberation or Enlightenment, and the promoted soul will at some stage in the future be compelled by karmic law to return, via reincarnation, to the physical plane in order to once again attempt to achieve the one Goal of every unenlightened human being: transfiguration, or ultimate liberation from matter (including the more subtle matter of the 4th and 5th densities). Therefore, the graduation to the 4th or 5th densities is actually a temporary promotion into more rarefied spheres of existence and experience, and so may be termed 'the lesser harvest'.

3) Those who have discovered and gone the Path of Return* and who are, therefore, able to be lifted up into the sixth cosmic sphere - the Body of Christ - and so who will attain the Final Liberation from all the lower worlds of fallen nature by being harvested back into the divine Kingdom. This is the true Harvest and has been the prime focus of all Avatars throughout human history.

Excerpted from "Judgement Day - The Harvest Time" The New Call

Uh, Group 1 doesn't look so hot. It appears that Groups 2 or 3 are where one may want to consider setting one's destination for. The time to demonstrate your fitness for inclusion in those two groups is now. Not "one minute before midnight", but now.

What is happening is very real. There is going to be a Harvest of Souls on this planet. Pretending that this is not going to happen, or denying that this is going to happen will not stop it from happening. Many are making the critical error of choosing to blithely ignore the truth of the Times. Their folly will be rewarded with bitter, bitter suffering and crushing disappointment. For those who can feel the significance of what is now taking place and wish to be included in the New World that is about to be born, the advice is to set your sights on The Goal and keep it there. Do not waver, not for a moment. Now is the time to effect your withdrawal, your retreat from this dying world system. Live in the manner of The New Man, pay heed to the new call.

At the end of the allegorical movie "Knowing" (*spoiler alert*) a young boy who had been receiving telepathic messages is about to be escorted from a dying earth by those whom he calls "the whisper people". His agnostic father wants to go with him, but he cannot. He asks his son "What are they saying?" The son replies thusly:

"The whisper people told me that Mommy's safe now. They've been protecting us all along, Dad. They sent a message ahead of them to prepare the way, and now they've come for us.

It's time to go, Dad. They've chosen us so we can start over. So everything can start over.

He's saying only the chosen must go. Those who heard The Call".

Pay heed. Warn all who will listen. Pass by those who will not. Continue to Love and Serve, no matter what. The Day of the Lord is at hand.

The Christine Radiation

2011-12-24T03:06:00.000-05:00

We point a remote at a television set and it turns on. We place a cell phone in the palm of our hand and pull conversations out of the air. We type words into a computer and they magically appear on screens a world away. We communicate with satellites spinning miles overhead in space, we cook meals without fire. What enables us to do all these things?

Radiation. Invisible waves of vibration.

The Sun affects all life on earth via waves of vibration that we cannot see. In the same manner, the stars and planets exert their influence on mankind. We know these things to be true because we bear witness to the effects of these causes. We live in a universe of vibration. We ourselves are a complex combination of various wave patterns. This nature-order is one, huge organized symphony of vibration.

From beyond this nature-order, from a Kingdom which is not of this world, emanates a divine radiation that cannot be seen or felt, yet it penetrates every human being. This vibration can only be "felt" by the divine spark, the spirit-spark atom, the "rosebud" that is housed within the human heart. This single atom, is built of not natural, but divine substance. It is the presence of God in this fallen world and the only part of the human being that resonates with the divine radiations mentioned a few sentences ago.

When we express a yearning to be free of this earthly prison, when we consciously live in self-forgetfulness and service-to-others, this divine spark will begin to vibrate and to attract a Divine Response. That is the true birth of the Christ, within us. It is the first step taken on the road Home.

Remember, this mighty Christine radiation is all round us. It will never force our response. It continuously knocks at the door of our hearts, waiting patiently for us to answer. We must open that door voluntarily. Once we do, we are on our way to forging an unbreakable link with a New Life-field. We will have grabbed The Golden Thread.

Vibrations, radiations, cannot be seen and frequently are not felt. That doesn't mean that they do not exist, passing through us constantly, like waves lapping the shore. We must have faith in that which is unseen. In time, that faith will move mountains.

A "Jump" In Evolution (Re-post)

2011-12-20T00:47:00.001-05:00

The following was originally posted on 7 May 2009.

Excerpted from "What Is To Come (Part II)" -- Universal Link - Borup, Denmark

[QUOTING]

This is a Message of Love to Mankind. God is Love and God is Merciful. God is The Almighty. God is He who guides Everything and Everyone. God is the Source of Life - nothing can live without God. And for this reason it would not be possible to do what we are going to do to the Earth without it being the Absolute Will of God.

Cleansing and Purification

Baptism was introduced and the baptismal service executed as a Rite, symbolising the Cleansing of the Spirit. Water was used as the spiritual Cleanser. It was water that symbolized the fact that one was desirous of that Spirit and Soul who wholly and sincerely wanted to give itself under God. Now I can inform you that we stand before a gigantic baptism, a new Baptism of Mankind. It is a baptism conditioning Admission into a stage of The Hierarchy where Man has hitherto never found himself. This baptism does not require Water, but Fire. Now Fire will be used as the Cleanser.

Fire will strike the Earth, The Earth will be purified in Fire, - but he who hears the Voice and he who heeds the Voice will - as truly as I am he who I am - be elevated into the air and from there witness what will happen to the Earth, which will be Cleaned and Purified in Fire; thereafter he will descend to Earth and continue his life in a new Spirit and with new Knowledge and new Understanding - in daily communion with Us and with Me - and consequently with God. Truly, it will be God's Kingdom now coming to Earth.

A "Jump" In Evolution

When you look about you in Nature you perceive infinitely many life forms manifested on this Earth on which you walk. Every single form of Life represents some part of God. Everything you see has been created by Him, by His force and His Spirit. When God desires that some life should go from one form to another it happens suddenly through a huge Upheaval. Man has seen and wondered at such upheavals, he has not been able to explain them, nor has he been able to understand how they happen. They have been called "mutations" and consist in a sudden "Jump" upwards on the Ladder - the Ladder of Life, on the road of Life towards God, to the great understanding of God and the close communion with God and to Life in His Spirit, manifested through His Law: True Fellowship Of All Beings.

It is a mutation like this that is now going to take place with Mankind - a Spiritual Mutation. Help will be coming to you from a rung above yours to help you acquire an Understanding of the value of God's Law. People have known God's Law for thousands of years - first in the law of Moses, later as it was written down by the four evangelists (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) - yes, it is all there; and when Man gets to understand it - when Man realizes its Meaning and tries to live accordingly, wholly and fully, then he will experience this Spiritual Mutation, and it will happen quickly.

How Life Will Be

The people here mentioned, who are to acquire this Spiritual Mutation, will come back to Earth in an entirely new Light - with an entirely new Knowledge - and, with Help from the Outside, given directly by Us, so that the Earth may once again become fertile and once again be able to produce the things the Earth was meant to produce. God's Spirit will be over everything and everyone, God's Spirit will help us reach the level we are meant to reach through mutual assistance. Every life on the Earth will be influenced by this. When I say that every life will be influenced it may sound strange to Man, but - just remember the old scriptures - it has been said as you know, that the Lion shall eat grass with the Sheep and this will come to happen. This will make you realize what happens when a planet is Elevated one step and Understanding becomes Perfect.

Man will live so perfectly that he will be able to manage everything and everyone surrounding him in such a way that everything will be in Peace and Harmony. No Killing will take place anymore. No Animal will ever again suffer harm. Everything will rest in peace and harmony. - Spiritual Understanding will not as yet be quite Perfect, but elevated so high that Life will in actual fact become as Paradise itself compared to the Life which has hitherto been manifested by Man. Thus it should be understood - for thus it is and so it will be.

Tribulation and "Loss"

There has been talk of perdition, but truly I say unto you - as I have said before: Nothing of that which has been Created will be Lost. The only Forfeit there is will be the loss of possibility this time to achieve that level which a great part of Humanity is to attain. But then this is something quite different. I have explained that it is a Spiritual purification that is about to take place on Earth and he who does not fulfill the stipulations of the Law will be lost to this Earth - that is quite clear, but he or she will certainly not be lost to God.

It is not possible to be lost to God. God is always with every human being - as well as with all other living beings. Life continues Universally, Life continues Eternally - only that it continues elsewhere and on a level which the man or woman in question fulfills hierarchically speaking. That is to say: Those who are now "lost" are lost in the way that they will continue their lives in accordance with their present terrestrial patterns - in some other place. However, wait and see when my coming is a Reality, then you will find it a Loss, after all. Just imagine Yourself standing with a Friend on the fourth rung of a ladder, and your Friend suddenly takes one step upwards while you remain on the fourth rung. Then of course you have been left behind as compared with him, although you are still there.

[END QUOTING]

We are about to experience a tremendous leap in human evolution, a "bridging of the gap" that will propel a significant number of humans towards the next phase of experience. There is a reason why there are "missing links" which confound science. Evolution proceeds slowly, gradually, until a point is reached where a new dispensation requires a new form of life.When this Turning Point is reached, a tension is created that builds up to a critical mass. When that critical mass is reached and the Time comes for a portion of mankind to take a Step Forward...

...THAT STEP IS TAKEN.

The Sham "Return Of The Christ" - Epilogue

2011-12-18T01:39:00.000-05:00

As previously stated, you don't have to believe what was written regarding the Great Deception that is to be a part of the End Times scenario, you just have to remember what you have read. The inhabitants of the reflection-sphere are battling for their survival and will stop at nothing to acquire the light-force they need. Humanity is assaulted on all sides from beyond the veil, by the so-called "good spirits" as well as the dark forces.

Look neither to the left, nor to the right, but straight ahead. Effect your link with the Gnosis, with the Living Body, and remain steadfast in your faith and desire to be delivered from this World of Sorrows.

"Then if any man should say to you, Behold, here is the Christ, or there, do not believe it. For there will rise false Christs and lying prophets, and they will show signs and great wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the chosen ones" Matthew 24:23-24

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" Ephesians 6:12

The Sham "Return Of The Christ" - Conclusion

2011-12-14T13:10:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

After the strange and so-breathtaking radio message about 'the Day of the Lord' which has come, the Great Play will continue in producing atmospheric phenomena of a mass-enrapturing nature all over the world. All those who have been familiarized from childhood with the exoteric interpretation of the Holy Languages of the Bible, and all those who have long forgotten this Language, and those who have misused this Language or desecrated it, or can only scoff at it -- they will all shudder in terror and fear, rush to the churches and places of worship that they used to attend in days of yore. There will not be enough room to seat them all!

Mass meetings will be organized, which will be called 'humiliation assemblies'; millions will offer up supplications to the various deities for salvation at the eleventh hour, now that 'the Great Day of the Lord' has come, and sense of sin has been tardy and weak. In this manner, the production of light-power will be tremendous; and this will increase the strength of the hierarchy of the reflection-sphere.

What will happen next?

Above all metropolitan and housing centres, in all countries and sections of the world, without a single exception, the atmospheric phenomena in question will be seen at set times, with steadily increasing frequency, finally even daily. People will think that heaven has opened! A great silence will come. The sky will be covered with beautiful blendings of pastel colours. Traffic will stop, and all will look up.

Then mighty music will resound, heavenly singing will be heard, and faces will appear in the clouds: lofty figures, all grouped around One, who will be recognized as Jesus, the Lord.

There will be a multitude which none can count!

Just fancy this above a city like London!

Everyone sees it; everyone hears it; nobody can deny it -- nobody in the whole world!

The consequences can be easily imagined:

Following these powerful scenes of the Great Play, further developments are but child's play, namely, the positive, actual appearing of the hierarchy already mentioned! They will come to the front and establish complete leadership in all countries of the world. And this not only ecclesiastically, but also politically, in order to institute an absolute theocracy, a would-be Christian-theocracy, carried through and made concrete as a great Reality Play.

Technically, magically, scientifically and theologically the brotherhood mentioned is fully up to such a task; and, after the thorough, magical preparation described, mankind as a whole will be mere puppets in the hands of the brotherhood.

We tell you about these things and announce them to you in advance, so that all of you, right now, may ask yourselves the all-important question: 'What shall I do at the moment when the Great Play breaks out over the world and mankind?'

When, in fact, all without exception, are misled, what will be your attitude?

Will you remain faithful to the new young Gnostic Brotherhood, who, as the only witness of the Absolute Truth, will deny the suggested origin of any such phenomena, and who, before the coming of these events, makes the fore-knowledge known to the world today?

Ere long, there will be two Kingdoms in the All-Manifestation:

the Kingdom of the Gnosis, and

the Kingdom of the Play-Actors

To which Kingdom will you belong?

The Sham "Return Of The Christ" - Part II

2011-12-14T12:29:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

You will now ask: how can these interruptions in the broadcast be brought about and who are those that will perform such a trick?

You know that a radio program is broadcast and received by means of electricity; their radiation waves have a certain length, according to mutual arrangement. Well then, most wonderful and ingenious applications of electrotechnics make it possible to absorb, without impairment, the energy sent out by a broadcasting station, in such a way that not the least energy or radiation from the broadcasting station reaches the radio sets; whereas, at the same moment, the thus blocked broadcasting station can be imitated with another apparatus.

The entities, performing this work belong to certain orders or brotherhoods who have their domicile in the Polar regions, as, for instance and among others, in Greenland. These are entities of a male and female nature, of whom frequent mention will be made in the near future; for the members of these orders will be used for the Great Play in many ways, about which we shall inform you as fully as possible.

These people are masters of popular psychology and know better than anyone else how they will have to handle certain nations and races.

The machinery just mentioned, with which they will achieve their radio-effect, can rightly be called a combination of technics and magic. It is undoubtedly of a technical construction, but so extremely sensitive that it can be controlled and applied by the powers of trained and commanded will and thought. Therefore, you can fancy how, apart from the explained radio-effect, government and other authorities can also be influenced directly with the aid of this machinery. The more minds and hearts are captured by the psychological consequences of the radio-effect, after the first act of the Great Play, the more people will become the will-less victims of the orders mentioned, with their magical-technical machinery.

Mankind goes the way of self-injury by dint of its abnormal intellectuality and its intellectual habit-forming, and thus endangers the reflection-sphere through lack of light-ether. It will now be brought into line by magical-technical means -- that is to say, in its own way -- and be forced into obedience to the dualistic hierarchy.

The usual manner of influencing, as used by the reflection-sphere, is steadily losing effectiveness. Therefore, the same end will be sought in another, hyper-modern way.

We shall conclude this exposition with the express warning: Speed forth on the way of the Gnostic Liberation shown you. Avail yourself of the possibilities offered to you for Liberation. Should the powers of the Great Play overtake you at a time when your resistance has not yet been mobilized and sufficiently built up in a conscious way, you will no doubt be victimized!

The Sham "Return Of The Christ" - Part I

2011-12-14T00:43:00.001-05:00

[QUOTING]

We shall now give a description of the various acts of the Great Play. We are not absolutely sure of the sequence in which all parts of the program will be performed; neither do we claim to be exhaustive in our description. However, our statement will be more than sufficient to enable you to immediately recognize The Play when it starts.

Well then:

Some day in the near future, in the morning, in the afternoon or in the evening, people will be listening to their favorite radio programs (g: we can substitute TV and the internet), be they sermon, other speeches, plays or concerts (g: we can substitute reality TV shows and Facebook).

At one of the high points of the broadcasts, when attention is supposed to be the greatest, the sound will suddenly fade away -- become inaudible -- and all listeners will hear a voice, a beautiful, deep, loving voice, announcing that there has been no interference at the broadcasting station, that the broadcast will resume very soon, but that this is only a short interruption for a communication which is addressed to all in the name of God, and intended for all. It will be stated that the Great Day of the Lord has come, the Day of the Return of Christ, and that all people are invited to prepare themselves for that day and for that hour.

This radio incident will take place at the same moment as regards all broadcasting stations then in operation.

The incident will last only a few minutes; and, in fact, the ordinary program will resume the next moment. Neither the preaching minister, the playing orchestra, nor the staff of the broadcasting station will know at the time what happened; for actually there will not be the least interference!

Then, a little later, in all directions, people will be on the telephone, asking what was the matter and protesting in all keys! For, here or there, in many a living-room, someone will have had a fainting from fright. "Does anyone have the right to give a person such a fright?", they will demand; and: 'What sect or church is responsible for such a thing?' 'You'll certainly hear further from us!', etc.

And, before the personnel of the broadcasting station has recovered from their perplexity, telegrams will flow in from all parts of the world, saying that though it all happened seemingly without interference at the station, yet there really was an interference of the same nature and with the same message for all.

You can imagine how the daily papers will look the next day! They will have descriptions of the incident, reactions of various persons; their terror and surprise, medical protests, and altogether the expression of complete perplexity.

All the world will be a-stir, through all social strata, in all circles of people, those of the Left and those of the Right; and government and radio authorities will take measures for the instituting of thorough investigations. In various quarters, lectures will be given seeking to determine what could possible be behind these happenings. In brief, a keen, general interest will have been aroused.

A few days later, the phenomenon will be repeated, with a similar message, and this time with much more success; for you can imagine that everyone is now glued to the radio! Communications from all parts of the world will confirm the fact that the same thing has occurred again and that the same message came through.

Can you see how the execution of this one phase of the program will have already shaken the whole mass of humanity, and how, as a consequence, the export of light-power to the reflection-sphere will have increased many times in all countries? Yet this one phase of the program is only a very slight introduction!

The Sham "Return Of The Christ" - Prologue

2011-12-13T18:06:00.004-05:00

Read, print, save. You may not believe what you're about to read in these next few posts, and that's okay. What's important is that when you are through reading, that you remember what you have read.

[QUOTING]

We shall now try to describe The Great Play for you -- the play as it will br performed ere long -- the Play of the sham Return of the Christ.

Its framework can be broken down into many sections. Besides a religious section, there is also an economic, a social, a political and a scientific section; and there are many other aspects and projects, all radiating from one great plan. By totally new means and directed from a hitherto unknown centre-point, this great idea aims at the constitution of a theocratic world state encircling all countries, all peoples and all races, a state of peace exceeding by far the boldest expectations of communists, Bellamyists, socialists and all other idealists. A perfect heaven on earth will be the leading motive!

We have ... explained to you why the hierarchy of the brotherhoods of the reflection-sphere are busy staging and enacting the Great Play of the Return of the Christ. We have shown how they suffer from a steadily increasing lack of human light force, which constitutes the greatest life factor for all those who want to continue to express and maintain themselves in the dualistic reflection-sphere. It has also been explained how the Great Play is being put on the stage, in order to supply this growing need; the purpose being to lure all mankind into and under a new, very actual spell, and work all up to a highly emotional, deeply religious ecstasy, in order to thus insure a production of light force, and the restoration of affluence for the subsistence needs of the reflection-sphere. This is the whole incentive!

They very well see that it is absolutely necessary for the success of the Great Play to completely wipe out all sectarian dissension and irreconcileably divergent convictions of all sorts; that the cast of authorities -- of leading theologians, priests and scientific ladies and gentlemen -- immediately and without reservation, say 'amen' to all the phenomena of the Great Play; in order that the people, the masses, may not be influenced by their authorities to a possible negative attitude. From the medicine-men in the dark parts of the earth up to the most celebrated and select professors of the most famous universities, there will have to be no divergence of opinion in regard to the nature and the essence of the stream of phenomena which will be poured over the world.

As you can readily see, if the hierarchy wants to bring this Play to a successful conclusion, they will have to make use of great powers, great capacities and a genius past all belief, to insure that all, without any exceptions, but the gnostics of the Modern Spiritual School, will simply submit to the facts.

It is for the benefit of these gnostics, and for the benefit of all those who will prove to be sensitive to the touch of the Gnosis, that this warning is given to the world in time.

The Sham "Return Of The Christ" (Preview)

2011-12-13T12:26:00.005-05:00

As a prep to what follows, one may wish to review past information regarding the "light-spirits", denizens of the reflection-sphere who attempt to effect "good works" from beyond the veil. Despite their apparent good intentions, they are the same as the more evil spirits in one key aspect:

In an attempt to prolong their existence on the other side of the veil, they must steal certain ethers from incarnate human beings (that's us).

You see, the 'hereafter', better known as the reflection-sphere, is not the eternal heaven that clerics and religions have promised man for centuries, but is, in reality, a temporary abode, where the personality slowly disintegrates and the microcosm is emptied. At some point in time, a new personality is installed in the emptied microcosm and it returns to earth-life for yet another attempt at finding the key to Liberation.

These light-spirits do not want to "dissolve". They are trying to maintain themselves for as long as possible in what they erroneously believe to be their heaven-world. To this end they will do whatever it takes to obtain the ethers that they need to live. This prolonging of existence is against Cosmic Law, as all microcosms are to be emptied in the reflection-sphere, indeed, that is the primary purpose of the reflection-sphere. When these light-spirits and others attempt to prolong their stay in "the summerland", enormous tensions are created.

Light-spirits require higher ethers (light and reflecting ethers) to survive. These ethers are produced when humans have lofty, idealistic thoughts or powerful, spiritual emotions (as in deep religious fervor, frenzies, etc.). Unfortunately for these entities, such ethers are not in high abundance today as the world's churches are empty and mankind's thoughts are generally of the lower, grosser types. Because of this, these light-spirits are starving, for want of a better word.

Now that the Gnostic radiations are here and steadily increasing in intensity and scope, the light-spirits are doubly threatened. The reflection-sphere is about to be cleaned out, as the tensions mentioned above have become intolerable. In order to stave off this coming event, the light-spirits must obtain for themselves an enormous amount of reflecting and light ethers. How they plan to do this involves all of us, and is the subject of the next few posts.

The Harvest and Etheric Sight

2011-12-10T22:00:00.002-05:00

[QUOTING]

The situation we are now experiencing has arisen many times in human history whenever a harvest had to be gathered and brought into the barn. In connection with this process, one can thus literally speak of the return of the Christ, a return that is absolute and complete.

One speaks of a return of the Christ, of a harvest that must be brought into the barns. But the coming harvest that is now beginning is entirely different from all previous ones.

Now we have outlined the most ideal and perfect way of reacting to the intercosmic touch, as a result of which a face-to-face meeting takes place. But, to reassure you, we must say that all those who are not, or have not yet been taken up into this mighty process, need not think that the blessings will pass them by, that they perhaps stand on the negative side of things, on the negative side of the dividing line which is growing wider and wider. No, for there are various gradations of positive development. All of you will be able to enter the One Kingdom. We can say that without any mystical exaltation, provided that, in our time, in our era, you really set your hand to the plough. For anyone who does not do that will irrevocably be cast into the negative development of things.

[Recently] we spoke of the forthcoming general results of the new radiation-field, results that will affect every human being in the world. Also, we recalled that step by step, etheric sight will shortly begin to develop. For when this new radiation-field touches the pineal fire-circle, the minimum result will be a strengthening of the activity of the thalamus, particularly of the delicate nerves which connect the pineal gland with the eyes. Among other things, this could result in eye problems for those who have not yet heard of the preparation of the pineal fire-circle. So, in the near future you are likely to hear of all kinds of diseases of the eye. On the other hand, the development of etheric sight will become more widespread, but remember that by this we certainly do not mean 'spiritual sight'. We have explained before what spiritual sight is. It is a development linked exclusively with the pineal gland which is connected with the monad.

Etheric sight always develops via the ocular nerves. A subtle action on the part of certain organs alters the activity of the eyes, and this altered activity is what we call etheric sight.

You will understand that this etheric sight alone will bring about tremendous changes. In fact, it will cause nothing less than a world revolution involving all nations. For imagine how it would be if, having previously only seen material things, the other planes of life surrounding us become visible, so that the space in which you lived was suddenly enlarged. And imagine how it would be if this happened to the whole of mankind! You would have gained participation in an entirely different field of existence with a strikingly differentiated form of life that, as you should bear in mind, in fact determines material life. For we have already explained that, seen from a material point of view, you live by the grace of your etheric double.

Well, the etheric plane, the etheric part of the reflection-sphere, will gradually become visible to the whole of mankind. Every human being will participate personally in it. Life in the reflection-sphere with all its aspects and also its inexpressible delusiveness, will thus become open to all mankind. The curtains will be drawn back from the stage and all will discover that life in the etheric realms has no higher basis whatsoever, and that reflection-sphere life consists entirely of delusion.

Furthermore, and this will be less pleasant, people will discover all the etheric scum, all the etheric vermin that feed and live on your light-vesture (etheric double). Such vermin are far more invidious than the vermin of the material sphere. Present-day methods of hygiene are not in the least effective against them. If your hands are dirty, you can wash them. If you feel dirty, you can take a bath. But even if you were to take hundreds of baths one after the other, you could not free yourself from the dirt of the etheric sphere, which may assail you on all sides.

The modern culture of bodily cleanliness would not help in the least. The only possible remedy lies in your way of life and only in that. This will become the hygiene method of the near future. For if your light-vesture is changed through your behaviour, an entirely different radiation will emanate from you and this will repel all the etheric vermin.You will understand that when this new development is manifested to mankind, all pride, all delusion, all self-conceit will fall away. Man will know that although he is called to the very highest, he is nevertheless often and in many respects the most sunken and strongly earthbound being. This psychological situation will bring about a powerful psychological reaction which will be expressed in the form of a new urge to seek. Man will try to find a way out of the situation he now begins to recognize. He will try to find other forms of hygiene and other methods of obtaining relief. People will start applying quite different values in their lives, values which, as we said, can only have to do with one's attitude towards life, values which affect not only outward things, but above all, one's inner life.

So now we must describe the minimum conditions with which you will have to comply now, today. These conditions are for those who, although in fact still open to a liberating course, have not yet satisfied those minimum requirements, for whatever reason it may be.

And do you know why? The reason is always the same! When the call resounds, 'Go out to meet the bridegroom!', everyone is so terribly busy. 'First I must do this; I still have to see how he or she is; first I must make sure that is alright; my social position demands that I first arrange this or that, because one cannot just leave things in the lurch', and so on and so on. That is how it is described in the holy language. And practice proves it. Everyone is so awfully busy, everyone is busy doing anything and everything, while the most important thing, the highest thing of all, is pushed into the background. That must now become a thing of the past!

From "The Return of Christ and the Manifestation of the New Ethers" - The Light-Vesture of The New Man - J. van Rijckenborgh, Catharose de Pietri (1989)

[END QUOTING]

At some point in the coming Turbulence, the dimensions are going to merge. Things unseen will reveal themselves. To avoid being overwhelmed and confused, preparation is imperative. Cleanse and purify the physical and subtle vehicles while there is still time. How? By effecting a fundamental reversal in our attitude towards life. We must divert our focus away from the self. Finally, Live to Serve. Nothing opens the heart like selfless service to mankind.

Completing The Human Creation

2011-12-09T12:11:00.002-05:00

[QUOTING]

Just as distinct, little beings work together to produce each complete human cell, there are spirit beings designed to work in symbiotic cooperation with each human ego (g: the 'ego' is the human personality with its four vehicles: physical, etheric double, astral and mental).

There are many names for us. We have been called angels, Bird Tribes, higher selves, hoksedas, spirits of the stars. The reality of what we are is more than a name can convey. We are the multiple projections of the Eternal One, spirits designed to blend with present-day humans. You now consider yourselves to be your egos, but egos are only one-half of the human equation. The complete human is a spirit/ego partnership.

We are individualized aspects of one holy and eternal being. We are your spirits as they exist apart from the Spell of Matter. We do not evolve. We incarnate. Our intelligence is pre-existent; our identities, highly focused frequencies of starlight. You need us to be whole, just as we need you to fully enter the physical plane. We seek to awaken in your minds and hearts, to incarnate in your bodies.

We are here to return your human circuitry to its Creator. Yet, your human egos are the guardians of this circuitry, the stewards of your minds and hearts; and without your ego's cooperation, our bonding with you is impossible.

You ego-ruled humans who feud and fight among yourselves do not seem to realize the obvious: the very values that you employ to determine your social behavior, would, if employed by your body parts, effectively block any cooperative association of ribosomes, enzymes, mitochondria and other little life forms from providing you with even a single coherent cell, to say nothing of a healthy and integral human body.

Hundreds of thousands of little beings, all working voluntarily together, make a human body what it is. It is not a case of survival of the fittest, as your belief systems, based on short-term observation, proclaim. It is rather a case of flourishment of the most cooperative, as all long-term observation of the universe verifies. It is through cooperation with one another that diverse forms of life adapt and thrive. And it is only through the symbiotic cooperation of a multitude of simpler organisms that more complex organisms like your bodies are able to come into existence at all.

At critical stages in their development, life forms cooperate for their own advantage with other separate and distinct life forms. Over time, their cooperation results in union. A new organism comes into being. Again and again this occurs in the formation of complex life forms.

This is analogous to what is about to happen again as your late 20th century human world reaches the optimal moment for materially oriented, ego-ruled human beings to be joined by their spirit-world counterparts.

Your race is soon to experience wide-spread Awakenings, or, as some will see it, a massive descent of beings from the stars.

We are the dreams of the Great Spirit, the true dreams, the clear dreams, the pure dreams, never tainted by fear, never touched by any motivation other than the motivation of Love; and yet, we are dreams nevertheless. Thoughts. Disincarnate beings drifting formless through a universe that has place the highest value of form, living in the Consciousness of a Creator whose desire is to take form in the very creature that will result from our bonding with you.

Our spiritual intelligence is the missing dimension, the rejected aspect, of your own Wholeness. For thousands of years, you have been afraid of us. Many of you are now learning that you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by establishing contact with us once again. It is only your ego that makes you fear.

Your ego is here to look after your physical body; to make sure it gets enough to eat, to make sure it does not walk over the edge of a cliff or damage itself unknowingly. Your ego is a steward and potential master of all material-plane fears, an important and necessary component of your identity. However, your ego was never meant to provide you with your primary sense of self.

In a healthy state, the ego is a secondary component of identity.

In a healthy state, the Being behind all being, the Self behind every self, the Great Spirit behind all of Creation is experienced as your primary sense of self. Your ego does not have to be repressed or transcended for this to happen. It does not have to die. It simply has to assume an appropriate relationship with the spirit that in truth you are, the spirit that wants to incarnate and take up residence in your body / heart / mind system.

Your ego is, by nature, a reflection. It can either be a good, sharp, clear reflection, or it can try to be an independent reflection. Yet logic shows there is no such thing as an "independent reflection". Your ego may create such an illusion; but if you believe in it, you will be troubled and unfulfilled.

When your ego stops trying to do everything all by itself, and invites eternal spirit into your consciousness, your historical illusion evaporates like mist on a sunny morning. A polarity reversal takes place (g: the fundamental reversal) in the charge of your human envelope. The field of consciousness around you changes. Instead of your ego dominating your sense of identity and blocking your awareness of the Great Spirit, an eternal sense of self awakens within you. You know yourself as a projection of the Creator of all the stars in the sky. You know yourself as one of a family of god-beings, sharing God's Being. You remember. Everything is seen differently. The world is perceived anew through the eyes of a Universal Awareness. Your ego becomes your working partner, and you commence the conscious creation of a new human reality.

We bring to you an angelic awareness that historically has not often been incarnate in human form. We bring an eternal continuity of consciousness that henceforth you might know yourselves as we know ourselves. Together, in loving cooperation, we join to provide Spirit and Matter with the optimal Balance.

We are not here to dominate your ego, but to secure its agreement, that between us we might work together and ultimately, as the years of this Transition pass, merge into a single, biological, spiritual and psychological entity -- an entity that shall in no way deny the needs and concerns of either ego or spirit, but that shall in every way honor the fundamental design and purpose of both.

We understand Love and how it seeks to become objectified in a material universe. Your human egos understand the mechanics of the physical plane. Together we will form a single creative dyad (g: a dual unity), an entry point into which the Eternal One's universal creativity will pour and from there, flow out to thoroughly transform these realms of matter.

We are coming now to help you make The Shift from unconscious, creature worlds of biology, to conscious co-creative biology. We are here to make this Great Time of Change as gentle as possible. Our purpose is linked with the Creator and with the earth, to create a world that works for everyone, a world that allows for the optimal development of all creative potential. Many human beings are already consciously blending with us. Whenever human hearts are willing to honor the spirits of Love, we descend, we incarnate. We complete the human creation.

During the age when fear was enthroned as the god at the source of human motivation, our incarnation only rarely occurred. Most of us -- your symbiotic counterparts, the missing pieces that are needed to make you fully human -- flew to the gentler, non-physical realms of higher vibration, fluttering away as birds might fly, startled at the thrashing of some loud and ignorant creature, only now to return, to approach you again under more favorable conditions.

But even during the darkest times, those of one particular Light Circle -- my own -- would fly close. To influence. To inspire. To blend where we could. You have heard rumors of our presence. Teachers, healers. Wise one here and there.

The human being is only half-complete. The coming Transformation is designed to place all those who can release their "self"-identification on the road to Completion.

It's Never Too Late, BUT...You Might Want To Get Moving

2011-12-07T00:57:00.006-05:00

Every one of us incarnates as 'image-bearers', personalities, for the express purpose of awakening the divine spark of the heart, rescuing our microcosm from its fallen existence and escaping this emergency order of existence. We are given tools to work with, although not all humans carry the same toolkit. Intelligence, a loving heart, sufficient insight to see beneath the shiny veneer of this theatre of fallen life, and, most importantly, the ability to respond to "the call" that beckons us Home.

Those who are ready will run towards The Path with arms wide open and a joyful heart. These ones know the way home. As they make their way towards Liberation, they will pause, look back and observe their brothers and sisters, still stumbling about in blindness, sorrow and pain. Searching for the same Path, but with "eyes wide shut". The Ready Ones, out of the deepest compassion, will delay their journey towards Freedom. They'll turn their backs on the Golden Road, and return to their lost brothers and sisters, in an effort to take them gently by the hand and point them in the right direction.

This scenario is taking place, right now, all over the world. One by one, souls are awakening. Soul-groups are forming. The world has reached the Hour of Reaping. It is time to gather the fruit into the barn. Many the world over are now crying out as voices in the wilderness, "make straight the Way of the Lord!".

The time to prepare is NOW.

At this crucial juncture in mankind's history, there are three types of people in relation to the impending harvest:

1. the group that reacts positively to the call of the Gnosis
2. the group that is totally indifferent to the call
3. the few who harden their hearts to the Gnosis

Of the three groups, only the 3rd group has guaranteed a bad end for themselves. There are those in Group 2 who are in danger of sharing the same fate. There are also those in Group 2 who, though presently undecided, can still make the switch to Group 1, if they sincerely wish to do so. A complete change of attitude in life must take place...there must be developed a willingness to stop focusing on the I-being and to instead turn their focus outwards, towards Loving and Serving their fellow man.

Oh, that's too hard, you say? Then say hello to Group 3. Enjoy oblivion.

For those who wish to do what it takes to become a part of the Living Body, who aspire to be members of The New Race, there is still time to do so, albeit not much. Thankfully, the change that one must make can be made in an instant. From that moment of decision onwards, the life must be lived in such a way as to reinforce that decision.

Live To Serve.
Release All Attachment To The Things Of The Fallen World.
Seek The Truth
Love Your Brother/Sister As Yourself

When the Last Trumpet sounds, those three Groups will become two. It will then be either / or. Those who are "on the fence" WILL HAVE THE CHOICE MADE FOR THEM. If they are found insufficiently prepared, their microscosms will be purged by the divine radiations that will be sweeping the world and they will cease to exist. Those who have attained a minimum level of suitability for harvest will be taken, although there may be some discomfort and a ton of confusion. That's okay. The point is to make it aboard the Ark, the rest can be sorted out once we are safely Ashore.

Make the decision. Then demonstrate your choice by the life you lead from that moment on. One day soon, the internet will be gone. The world will be in a state of chaos. These words will be but a memory. You will be left with your own soul-state, whatever it may be. Pray that it will be of sufficient quality to secure your place. Remember to fear nothing. If you have but taken the first step on The Path and opened your heart to the Christine Ray, things should go well. However, that doesn't mean that we should settle for 'the minimum'. Live the Path to the fullest so that there will be no question as to where your aspirations lie.

The final call is being sounded. For some, the red skies heralding the Tribulations will be seen as the End. For those who have prepared and waited for so long, those very same skies will assure them that what they are witnessing is A New Beginning.

Clueless

2011-12-03T04:47:00.003-05:00

If we are given the opportunity to learn of the Truth behind our existence, we must take advantage of that opportunity. Although divine avatars, prophets, messengers and teachers are periodically sent to guide and assist mankind, the decision to Seek True Knowledge can only be made by the individual. The choice to awaken our Divine Spark is ours alone to make.

It doesn't matter what our life was before this moment, or what others think of us, or even what we may think of ourselves. What matters is that we make the right choice. The choice to walk the Path of Return.

There are two main themes running throughout the history of the world.

1. Divinity is constantly encouraging humanity to recognize our plight and seek liberation from darkness

2. Duality is constantly discouraging humanity, keeping us in a drunken stupor, blind to our plight, clueless.

Are we going to go down without a fight, yet again? Are we going to slide off to the reflection-sphere as we've done hundreds of times before, just as ignorant of our purpose as we were when we were born? Or are we going to seize the Grace that is being offered at the close of this major world-cycle and finally find the Wisdom, the Strength to turn our back on this imitation of life once and for all?

See that guy in the cartoon above? We've been that guy before. Let's try our damndest to not be that guy this time 'round.

Diamond In The Dark

2011-12-01T01:02:00.002-05:00

Take a diamond, of whatever size, and cover it with rich, brown dirt. Stand back and take a look. What you will see is a pile of rich, brown dirt. However, you'll know that buried in that rich, brown dirt is a diamond, imperishable, everlastingly beautiful.

Another will come by and see only a pile of rich, brown dirt. He will say, so what? Unless you tell him what is buried within, he will not know. He will simply disregard it as dirt.

Within our fallen, mortal bodies, at the geometric center of the microcosm (the heart) - lies buried a single atom of Divine Substance. This spirit-atom is composed of material not of this world. It also has a power that is not of this world, but that power is latent. It is asleep. It sleeps because it has been overwhelmed by the gross energies of the fallen world. It is the mission of every human being who can understand and remember, to awaken this spirit-atom, this Divine Spark, and re-link it with The Kingdom.

Once that link is re-established, the Rebirth of the Soul can commence. We must Love without conditions and Serve without expectation of return. Service is the key that will open the chamber of the heart where the Divine Spark reposes. Unselfish Service will rouse the spirit-atom from its slumber, so that it can begin to respond to the Aquarian energies that infuse and surround this world. Fan the spark into an ember, the ember into a flame, the flame into Glory.

Unearth the diamond which you have carried unawares for so long. Free the spirit-spark within so that it can perform its work of Renewal. One single, Divine atom is waiting for you to release it from bondage, so that it may release you from bondage.

The Kingdom of Heaven, you carry within.

Be As Little Children

2011-11-25T02:54:00.003-05:00

2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven".

Remember when you were a child? When everything was new and amazing? When every stranger was your friend? When you believed what you were told because you trusted those who taught you?

We all know how that turned out. What was once new, became routine. A stranger became just another potential threat to our existence. We learned later on in life that those who taught us, in whom we had innocently placed our trust, were wrong on just about 100% of everything they'd taught us. This was not purposely their fault, as they had only been passing on what they themselves had been erroneously taught.

Now, mankind is poised at the dawn of a New Age. A migration to a Kingdom which is not of this world - the true "Kingdom of Heaven", not the reflection-sphere imitation. Because it is not of this world, it cannot be explained in relation to the natural world. It is completely foreign to this nature, the material world that we are used to. We cannot imagine it, therefore, it must be revealed to us.

Those Servers who have incarnated in this age to show us The Way have taken up the duty and responsibility to lead those who are ready and willing, out of the darkness and into the light. What they offer mankind is the Truth and the Light. It is an offer, which implies acceptance or non-acceptance on our part. All of the concepts put forth regarding man's present condition and the state of the New Kingdom will sound ultimately fantastic to the ordinary man, because these concepts have not been shared with humanity for long ages of time. If we accept and live these concepts, we will be paving the road to the New World. If we doubt and deny these Universal Teachings, we will have sealed ourselves for an eternity in darkness.

Therefore, we must "be as little children", wide-eyed, astonished, sponge-like and thirsty for True Knowledge as we approach each new concept with wonder and without prejudice. This time, the Teachers bring with them Truth. We must aspire to become a part of something that is New (in relation to this world) and will never get "old". We must be ready to realize that every "stranger" is our brother, our sister, walking the same Path as we, perhaps a little further ahead, perhaps a little behind. We must begin to live our lives in a new way, with a new state of consciousness, with a new desire to reunite with the Whole ("whole-y", "holy"), and resume our true Evolution.

We must recognize that we do not know anything regarding what is required for us to attain our salvation from this world. Just as we did when we were children and this world was the foreign one, we must pay close attention to our new Teachers. The Teachers of Love, the Servers of the Divine Plan. If we are good pupils, our Reward will be assured.

This is the meaning of the words of The Christ, recorded in Matthew 18:2-4.

The Great Play II

2011-11-20T13:34:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

Today, in these "end times", the servants of Christ are again struggling with their voluntary work of Salvation. Throughout history and during the growth of every Gnostic order, there were periods of such a nature; periods when, with success seemingly at hand, the greatest difficulties arose from outside just before the very moment of attainment; times when serious obstacles and delusions threatened to prevent victory. Humanity still possesses the records of some of these events in the form of legends and tales that contain a hidden meaning.

The exigencies with which the past successive Gnostic groups were faced were, in each instance, quite different, being always determined by the ever-varying radiations and tensions of the planetary and zodiacal influences of the particular sidereal year. (A sidereal year is a period of 25,000-26,000 years).

As is always the case, the successive Christine Fellowships on Earth, during the specific periods of their development, had to suffer intensely cruel persecutions by hostile aggressors, and this has been the repeating situation with various groups of servants of Christ during the past three thousand years, including the Cathars, Manicheans and classical Rosicrucians. All such persecutions were inseparably connected with the cosmic and atmospheric trends of their times.

In other words, it can be stated that the principle which is at the root of any truly Gnostic experience on any planet ruled by ignorance is invariably the same. While the succession of events and the surrounding circumstances differ in each period, nothing can develop that has not already occurred in the centuries past. The ceaseless revolutions of the sidereal years make this an absolute certainty.

Perhaps you are beginning to appreciate why, at this special time of the no-fail global mission of world transfiguration as directed by the Logoic* Redemption Plan, the new Gnostic Fellowship on Earth is working subjectively and not in large, overt groups. Any large organisations or groups who are advertising themselves successfully in the public arena today will certainly NOT belong to the New Link in the Gnostic Chain.

* The Logos is the prime creative and directing Intelligence of a planet, solar system, galaxy or universe.

There is, however, quite a different aspect of the matter that is directly related to the forthcoming world events and which we shall now discuss.

The dualistic universe, as a system, a cosmic field within the divine Mind, is self-evidently part of a vaster field, a greater Cosmos, upon which it is necessarily dependent. Inasmuch as it forms a separate whole, cut off as it were from the rest of the Omniverse - because in essence it is diametrically opposed to the Divine Plan of Evolution - the dualistic field, being a segregated cosmos, periodically undergoes correction by the Logos of the system and is cleansed of all disharmony and negativity perpetrated within its sphere, and, each time anew, this necessarily threatens to make the dualistic field a temporarily unfit dwelling place for all life.

It is the most tragic fate of all the archons*, aeons, their forces and satellites that, due to their natural state, they will revolt against the Logos, opposing Him in His corrective processes. This is because every dualistically-born creature tends both to maintain and protect itself. When corrected in any manner or for any reason while following its natural course, the fallen entity will make a stand against the Corrector and will tend to resist any process that threatens self and its familiar world.

* Archon is a Gnostic term given to an entity in the reflection sphere who perpetrates evil. The archons are incorporeal beings who are bent upon world domination and control. They have victimised humanity from the hidden side of life for long ages. Their collective evil constitutes the plan of the 'antichrist' since they willfully oppose the Divine Plan of Salvation, which is implemented by the Christ-Hierarchy. The Archons are rulers of the aeons; the hierarchic group who dominate time and space. The archons and aeons constitute great metaphysical powers which are fed by fallen mankind and which abuse all of fallen nature including mankind, driving them to an unholy activity for selfish benefit. At the cost of appalling human anguish, these entities have acquired freedom from the wheel of birth and death; a freedom which they, in their boundless self-maintaining need, can only retain by unrestrictedly increasing and maintaining the suffering of the world. In their collectivity, they are sometimes also designated as the dualistic hierarchy, or 'the prince of this world'. The vast majority of psychics, mediums (channellers) and 'spiritual' people in the world today receive impressions and 'guidance' from the dualistic hierarchy and not, as most prefer to believe, from the Fellowship of Christ, the holy Planetary Hierarchy.

So, the Logos calls us by means of the all-pervading Light Power of Christ; and, if we respond to the Call by going the Path, we immediately encounter alienation and animosity in the fallen world as we seem to acquire many enemies. Our lot will then be similar to that of all servants of Truth. As stated, the Logos, in the revolution of the sidereal years, will periodically intervene with the whole tide of dualistic events, in order to cleanse and purify, always prompted by the Eternal Love that upholds the All, and consequently also duality. But immediately, all that is created in duality will oppose the Logos. This it is bound to do because it cannot do otherwise on account of its dependence upon the laws of fallen nature. It is thus that all life-under-the-law should be understood.

This is the fate of the Evil One who has been depicted throughout the centuries by so many thinkers, poets and seers:

I greet Thee, Thou Light,

pervading my domain.

I greet Thee, Thou who walks the ways

which I combat with bitter hatred.

I know, Thine is the victory, O Lord,

and yet I revolt against Thee!

Such is my fate

until I die, until the very last hour,

I shall resist Thee, O Lord.

* * *

Now, we are all aware that humanity is living in an era in which not only are the servants of the new Life-Field about to escape the grip of the fallen world and, consequently, shall be confronted with human resistance according to the laws of duality, but in which the Earth has also entered a period of world-correction by the Logos, as a consequence of which all the aeons of fallen nature, their forces and vassals will also join in the combat against the course of events. This is why our present sphere of living is so full of complications and tensions. It is because a well-nigh overwhelming resistance is developing against the atmospheric cosmic revolt, the Logoic Redemption, as well as against a widespread Gnostic movement that is presently unfolding, mostly 'underground'.

The foundations of this dualistic world are shaking. At the same time, an intense opposition against the ways of the Logos is manifesting itself. Now, since we, being a Gnostic group, are one of the parties to these great happenings, it is clear that we shall have to ponder most seriously upon all that is going to happen if we want, first of all, to be able to hold our own in the midst of the oncoming tempest, and secondly, to serve the Great Cause as best we can.

In entering upon such reflections, we should not by any means start from the premise that this struggle, this resistance, will take shape in one of the ways familiar to us, or will in any aspect be like the usual human armed conflict (although such symptoms usually accompany the greater battle). Rather, at least during the earlier stages, the weapons used by the forces of darkness are always the weapons of imitation, the weapons of fakery, treachery and theatrical effect.

These weapons are already today being used with tremendous ingenuity, with the most thoroughly scientific knowledge, applied in a perfectly practical manner. They are so astoundingly all-embracing and effective that, as humanity is confronted with them, it finds itself completely unable to recognise the deception and so is essentially defenceless. Such is the intelligence and meticulous orchestration behind the long-prophesied play of the great delusion that mankind cannot but believe in it, put its entire faith in it; and thus nearly 6 billion deceived individuals will follow after that which is falsely and surreptitiously revealed to them.

It is for this reason that all Holy Scripts contain warnings against the appearing of the antichrist; as, for instance, in Matthew 24, wherereads:

"False messiahs and false prophets will arise, and they will perform signs and wonders so great as to deceive, if that were possible, even the elect. Behold, I have told you beforehand".

Of what nature these signs and wonders will be we ought to thoroughly investigate and understand, for the time has now come when they are presenting themselves to the whole world, forcing themselves upon us and consequently, just as prophesied in the scriptures, thus far, the majority of spiritually-disposed human beings are being led far astray from the True Path.

The Great Play

[QUOTING]

The Great Play

A series of forewarnings regarding

the shadow of coming events

Introduction

Impelled by the gravity of our present time and also its great spiritual opportunity, and desiring to help mankind to the very best of our ability, we wish to reveal some urgent and pressing facts that we would beseech all true hearts to seriously consider sharing with as many intelligent and open-minded people as possible in a way that may be comprehended without causing alarm.

We are here concerned with completely bypassing the veils of appearances which, in this, our illusioned existence, serve to hide the reality of things from our eyes. The following disclosures are intended as both a helping guide and a warning for everyone who, upon recognising the signs of the times, in repentance and inner spiritual maturity, wishes to take account of their responsibility toward Christ* and suffering humanity.

* There are two Divine Plans: the Divine Plan of Evolution and the Divine Plan of Salvation. The latter Plan assists all life within the fallen, undivine world. This Redemption Plan is lovingly furthered by the voluntary members of a great Body of Liberated Souls who have been called the Christ-Hierarchy.

The full weight of the motives that induce us to present these revelations lies in the absolute necessity of voicing an urgent admonition with regard to the now imminent and inevitable onslaught to which mankind's blind course of life has led, and of unprecedented events in the near future that are inseparably connected herewith and which pose a challenge as well as a spiritual test of utmost importance for the whole of humanity.

By this appeal, it is our prayer that many may be saved from the fatal grip of the unfolding great delusion perpetrated by the hierarchy of the reflection sphere*, and that more individuals may see the light in good time and so make a timely embarkation upon the Path of Liberation. May the harvest be greater than before.

* There are two spheres or fields within the fallen, dualistic universe. The material sphere is the region in which we live as physical beings. The reflection sphere is the region in which, among other things, the process between physical death and reincarnation ensues. Therefore, the reflection sphere is the temporary abode of the 'dead'.

The dualistic order is a nature of death, consisting of two main spheres: the material sphere, which is the domain of existence of man born of matter, and the reflection sphere, which is the realm of the 'dead'. In the undivine, dualistic nature order - which is characterised by its ceaseless variability of all things - all microcosms, in a circulatory process of rising, glimmering and fading (what humanity calls living and dying), are, in turn, being animated and emptied. This means that again and again they are supplied with a new personality which, after its course through the material sphere is completed, vanishes again. Hence, the material sphere is the field of life of the personality, whereas the reflection sphere is the field where the microcosms are emptied.

In the course of this uninterrupted rotation through the two spheres of this nature of death, a sum of experiences, a memory, a total result of all manifestations of various personalities is registered in every microcosm, until finally it will be possible to obtain in a microcosm a personality that, by virtue of experience and microcosmic maturity, is able to make the resolution and produce the strength to depart from this nature of death to the regions of another cosmic Order. This does not mean a departure to the reflection sphere as a consequence of corporeal death, but a victory over death and a negation of the reflection sphere as well as the dense material world.

For a growing number amongst humanity, something of the New Christine Kingdom is today becoming a reality. A very small percentage of the human population have already been led to the borders of the Promised Land; the preparatory wandering through the desert of so many lifetimes is almost a thing of the past, and some are now awakening the proper consciousness for their imminent entry into the Ark of Christ, which is today preparing for its long-prophesied voyage into the New World. It has become an urgent necessity, therefore, to inform as many receptive people as possible about a number of correlative phenomena that are arising in the world today. If we are not informed about these matters and do not have a clear insight into what is behind very many unfolding and forthcoming events, we shall doubtlessly be misled. With the best of intentions, we shall turn into ways leading away from the True Path, and become entirely lost for the Harvest.

In order to be able to correctly understand the psychological background of the coming events, it should be borne in mind that all entities in the dualistic world, by virtue of their state of birth, are bent on self-maintenance and self-protection. Apart from this pattern being in complete accordance with the fallen universe, it is also a natural 'duty', a natural impulse or instinct that makes it absolutely impossible for fallen souls to act otherwise. Whoever identifies with the I-state, whoever is bound to the I-state of birth according to fallen existence will, of necessity and from this very I-centred disposition, consider as an enemy, or at least as a danger, anyone who wants to dissolve this fallen state or to be liberated from it.

Since mankind is born according to the laws of the fallen world and is essentially one with the dualistic universe, it is clear that when Gnostically-inclined persons are turning themelves in the direction of the divine Kingdom, they undermine the foundations of duality to which they are tied, thus disorganising and weakening it. Hence, no sooner has the sincere aspirant entered upon the True Path of Return than the aeons*, with all their powers and their satellites, become one's sworn adversaries, with complete disregard for all sentimental considerations and civilised practices!

* The aeons are semi-intelligent, monstrous formations of unholy powers which, in the course of time, were called into existence by the ignorance and fear of mankind. They are irresistible powers of self-maintenance urging humanity to continue upon its self-created, wayward paths, thus securing mankind's binding in duality to the ever-turning wheel of birth and death.

He, therefore, who is turning towards the Salvation that is hidden in the Light of Christ and who is conforming his way of living thereto, is immediately confronted on all sides with enmity on Earth. This enmity, then, is a natural reaction, a natural self-protection, viewed from the angle of this dying world order. This is why the way of anyone who starts to earnestly walk the Path will be found extensively blocked and strewn with all kinds of obstacles. He immediately becomes a stranger on Earth whose very existence is begrudged him, and who meets with opposition day and night, exactly as we find it described in the historical accounts of many other great world Servants. When a man becomes truly spiritual, the fallen world rejects him, as he must reject the world. True servants of Christ have always been opposed and fought due to their very threatening state of being and their mission. However, in understanding the psychological driving forces behind those who resisted Divinity, and being solely motivated by an intense love for the soul of mankind, they did not retaliate, but responded with detached compassion and absolute abstinence from any form of violence, subtly in thought, or otherwise.

Their only weapon - if this term may be used at all - was the fact that they were entirely focused upon the current of Grace, on the electromagnetic lines of activity, directives and forces emanating from the divine Kingdom. This gave them complete safety, while by their non-reaction, they avoided any conflict that would otherwise have involved them.

IN The World, But Not OF The World

2011-11-18T18:50:00.001-05:00

"Be in the world, but not of the world"

Difficult? Yes, it is hard...at first. If it were easy, the entire planet would have ascended ages ago. Speaking from experience, once we dedicate ourselves to that object, it gets progressively easier until it eventually becomes a new attitude of life, replacing the old almost effortlessly. Again, this writer speaks from personal experience. i, too, was once trapped (perhaps 'anchored' would be a better word for it) in the muck of duality, firmly so.

It is akin to asking a man to permanently walk backwards from this moment on. But anything can be learned, if one desires to learn it. This is where steadfastness comes in. We must be steadfast and one-pointed in our determination to seek out and employ those things that will result in Soul Rebirth. An objective, dispassionate, neutral attitude towards the phenomena of this world is a primary requirement.

Remove ourselves to the caves? Certainly not. Jesus went to weddings and celebrations, after all, He lived IN the world. But did He go to celebrations for the sake of celebrating? No. While there, He'd teach, or heal, or assist the host in some matter. By this example, He showed us that the object should always be to be of Service to our fellow man, no matter what the situation. If you have to be somewhere, or if you have to perform some earthly duty, then do it with Love and Service as the goal, not self-gratification. Then you are not OF the world, which, by nature, is selfish and self-preserving in its objectives.

The difference between simply attending an event and thoroughly anticipating, reveling in and reminiscing about an event, is huge. In the former, we attend, but do not attach ourselves to the trappings or the outcome of the event. In the latter, the event becomes everything to us, and we crave more of those sensations, those earthly vibrations. Our desires thus fueled, we bind ourselves even more firmly to the material world.

Not all will be able to see this through. The task will prove to be too hard. It has to be, as the Elect are being chosen. As such, there will be The Few who will try with all their might to do whatever in Truth is necessary to extricate themselves from the grip of the very alluring, attractive, hypnotic and fascinating illusion of life we are now mired in.

"Many are called, but few are chosen".

All Is Fallen

2011-11-17T18:07:00.002-05:00

This writer once asked of one who had a sound understanding of the Universal Teachings, the following question:

"Is there anything that is not fallen in its nature?"

The reply was "No".

"Man"?

Fallen.

"Earth"?

Fallen.

"Other planets and galaxies"?

"Fallen and Fallen".

"Surely the higher dimensions are constructed of a higher material?!"

"Yes. Finer fallen material".

It was then that a light came on. Realization struck like a bolt of lightning. The realization was that nothing here on (fallen) Earth worth is worth clinging to, or worth saving. This goes for both the so-called "good" and "bad" experiences. Not one of the so-called higher, or 'beautiful' things of the world are of any lasting value. Even the pursuit of the human emotion named "love" is a useless, vain and wasteful endeavor.

The only intrinsic value that our experiences and relationships have is evidenced by their ability to provide us with situations that will lead us one step closer to realizing that we ought not be here, that we are Strangers far from Home, marooned in a strange land. Recognizing this is what helps to stop us in our dualistic tracks, pulling us out of our robot-like routines and forcing us to ask the questions:

"What is the purpose of all this suffering and strife?"
"What should I be doing?"
"How do I get off of the merry-go-round Wheel of Death-and-Rebirth?"

First, you must stop neglecting your Spiritual life. It is the Life inside of you that matters, not the physical shell you see in the mirror with its hundreds of harmful and destructive fears and desires. We, as image-bearers of God, are living Temples for divinity. Literally. Sadly, the Divine Spark within most men burns low. It is our job, our mission, our purpose to obtain True Knowledge, fan that Spark to life, strike our tents, take up our kits, and begin the walk Home.

This is why humanity is so inexplicably unhappy. We know that there is something that we should be doing, but we can't remember what it is. Therefore, we fear 'death', because deep within, on a Soul level, we know that dying without completing The Mission will amount to a failure of the personality to liberate the microcosm (the Soul). This feeling is bred into us due to thousands of previous incarnations that have ended in the same, exact failure. So most erroneously spend their time in innumerable wasteful endeavors, striving in vain to find happiness here on earth, where a true and lasting Happiness can never be found.

The times that we are now in - the end of a major world cycle - present a SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY, for all who are able, to gain answers to the three questions above and to successfully complete The Mission. But, we must first extricate ourselves from the grip of the lower worlds. We do this by ceasing to pay attention to it. All of it! Even the so-called "good" parts. Participate, if we must, but we cannot get bogged down in RESULTS. All activities must be viewed from a position of neutrality and dispassion - do not take sides, do not take things "personally". Be IN the world, but not OF the world.

Situation: There's an "OCCUPY" movement taking place around the world?
Our response: Um, okay.

Situation: Revolutions in various and sundry nations?
Our response: And so it is.

Situation: So-and-so hates your guts and wishes you the worst?
Our response: There goes a tortured Soul.

Don't join anything, don't commiserate over anything, don't take offense to anything.

If we are unable to release our natural attraction to the things of the natural world, it will be incredibly difficult to attain the spiritual condition necessary for us to leave it. Why do you think there is so much going on in the world? Because the Dark Prince wants to keep you fascinated, transfixed to the very end by the flashing lights, the intoxicating sounds, the streaming colors of his false realm. Then when 'the door' shuts for good, those Souls who were hypnotized by the display will finally realize that they were fooled, that earth-life was all a show and that they are now trapped in a Dungeon of Misery for a very long time. It won't be forever, but it will be for a verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry long time, indeed for an eternity (which is not the same as infinity).

Meanwhile, those mature Souls who had the insight, intelligence, drive and Remembrance to cut their ties with the material nature-order and pledge themselves to the original divine-order will find themselves rewarded beyond anything that could've ever been imagined while imprisoned here on this planet of mixed vibrations. The struggle to free ourselves from the grip of the dark cesspool of matter will be worth it beyond all belief, trust in that.

The opposite of fallen is Divine.

Let's get There.

Image-Bearers

2011-11-15T23:25:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

We are created as bearers of God's image; therefore we are not divine beings at birth, but images, reflections or representations of divine beings. Until the process of transfiguration is complete, we are intelligently- and purposefully-formed imitations of the original divine Man. As fallen microcosms, therefore, we are Called, and by going the Path it is possible to assimilate into our systems the original divine radiation Power that is present everywhere, to allow it to work in us and so to prepare ourselves for Deliverance.

Suppose, like the vast majority of human beings on Earth, we do not go the Path, because we do not understand it, or because we are not willing to take this course owing to various aberrations and obstructions in our fallen state. Then we shall be neglecting the one great Task to which we are all Called. For we have been created solely to realise, to make real God's image in ourselves by following the Path under the auspices of the Divine Plan of Salvation. Each moment that we forsake this Calling, every moment that we deny it for whatever reason, a cause is set up that produces a corresponding karmic effect that further binds us to the fallen world and its fear-matrix, and at every moment that we repeat such dualistic activity, in thinking, feeling or action, we immerse ourselves more deeply in the great stagnant pool of suffering and sorrow.

If a being, created for a certain task and equipped with the necessary abilities, does not take up that task, a reversal of values must arise, and the emergency order of duality will begin to take on a different character to that which was originally established long ago: a character we all know so well today. The emergency order, which was once a Garden of Eden, requires that either the image-bearer of God must die in Christ, to be resurrected into the original divine State, or alternatively he must eventually die the once-only death of personality destruction. He must either die in order to win Eternity, or he must undergo the death of finality and annihilation.

Excerpted from "The Self-Surrender of the I-Man" - The Gnosis In Present-Day Manifestation - J van Rijckenborgh (1980)

It bears mentioning that it is the soul, the microcosm, that incarnates over and over. For each new incarnation, a new personality is created. Right now, the personality being utilized by your microcosm is you. In the previous incarnation, it was someone completely different. The same goes for the life before that, and the life before that, going back hundreds of lives. To be clear, when the man dies, the personality, the "you" that was, will slowly cease to exist. Physical body, etheric double, astral body and mental body, will each, in turn, gradually disintegrate until all that is left is the emptied microcosm. This is 'the second death' that is referred to in Revelations 20:6.

The personality, with its four vehicles of expression, is a tool, or, as stated above, an image-bearer designed for use by the microcosm to accomplish The One Goal: liberation of the soul from this endless Cycle of Sorrows. However, if one can awaken in time to take even the very first step on The Path, then upon that one's transition from the physical plane, he will not head for the reflection-sphere 'heaven-worlds' and gradual disintegration of the personality. Instead, that one - in full possession of all his/her vehicles - will be taken up in the New Life-field on the other side of the veil, where the work that was begun on the physical plane can be continued in an atmosphere of peace.

This is what it means "to die in Christ". It means that one has made the decision while in the physical to go The Path of Return. His heart has responded to the Call of the gnosis and he has made the effort to find out what is expected of him. He has made a fundamental change in his mode of Thinking, Feeling and Willing. Those who have earnestly and sincerely started on The Way will have nothing to fear from the 'second death'.

We have two choices. Continue to serve 'the beast' (a.k.a. "the matrix") and stumble to oblivion having failed in our mission, or, embrace the gnosis, give up the things of this nature, and triumphantly deliver our microcosms safely across the veil to Shamballa.

It's either-or, one or the other. Remember, no choice is still a choice. In light of the foregoing, there can only be one sane choice.

The Ark

2011-11-13T00:56:00.000-05:00

[QUOTING]

In the development of a transfiguristic Group, progress begins by means of a fundamental radiation of the Gnosis. This radiation is to be found everywhere in the world - there is no place where it is not present. While it is world-embracing, it emanates from the magnetic body of a Brotherhood which entered into liberation in the centuries behind us and which radiates its Glory into the dualistic life field in full splendor. It is of extraordinary significance to dualistic mankind that the universal gnostic light is transmuted by means of such a Brotherhood, for, if that were not the case, the fundamental radiation could not be intercepted by the night-dwellers.

Due to the presence of the fundamental gnostic radiation the work of the Group can begin. The Group knows how to make a link with it by means of group unity and directedness of purpose. By bringing this radiation into rotation, a force-field will come into being around the working-field of the Group. Then, the fundamental radiation, which vibration is entirely attuned to the force-field and the Group, will finally divide into seven rays. This division of the force-field into seven rays is called 'the out-pouring of the Holy Spirit'. This means that the seven powers manifest themselves in all those who live in the force-field. It forms itself into a light-field, into a magnetic sphere, into a new earth. All those who are connected with it will change fundamentally, structurally, they will transfigure.

This new development takes place very gradually, very methodically and entirely harmoniously. But notwithstanding all of this, it takes place with an irresistible tempo. Whoever are willing to live in the magnetic field of the Group should take into account that they will be taken along in that tempo; either to a resurrection or, in the case of those who prove to be recalcitrant, to a fall. When this Great Renovation starts, a journey for all those who are separated into the New Life-field begins, while the remainder of mankind stays behind in the ordinary magnetic body of nature. A change sets in and throughout the ages, this change has been described as a journey. So there is a question of a farewell. The two groups drift apart; the night-dwellers stay behind. Those who seek the New Morning are going away on a journey.

The change of those who separate will, at a given moment, have progressed so drastically that both worlds disappear from each other's sights. Long before this disappearance, a moment has arrived when beings from the old world-order will no longer be able to step over into the new order. The distance has then become too great, the difference too drastic. It is self-evident that the Group should exert itself to the utmost to make this transfer happen to the greatest number of seekers for as long as possible.

This is the classical task of the ferryman who has to lead all the pilgrims across the Styx, the separating river. The work of the ferryman, the harvesting of as many souls as possible out of the sea of life, will take place exclusively on the basis of the new fundamental radiation which calls and awakens all over the world. This activity will have to be supported by the workers who do the work through the Sevenfold Spirit. This work will be done by the fulfilling New Life itself that has touched the workers concerned. They will then say to all those who are still in the field of the night:

"Behold, I am still with you, but the time will come soon that this will no longer be the case. Now the ark, the new magnetic body of the Group, is still with you and if so desired, you can fulfill the conditions and enter. But if, seen from the point of space and time, the separation between you and us becomes unbridgeable, that entry will not be possible anymore. The Gnosis will close the door of the Ark".

The Redemption Of Man

2011-11-10T17:48:00.008-05:00

[QUOTING]

Here we are now entering on new and great mysteries worthy, I entreat you, of your most earnest attention.

When, according to the Wisdom and Justice of God, it was resolved to save the fallen human race, the Wisdom of God had to choose the method which afforded in every aspect the most efficacious means for the consummation of this great object.

When man became so thoroughly poisoned by the fruit of evil, carrying in himself henceforth the ferment of death, all around him became subject to death and destruction, therefore, divine mercy was bound to establish a counter remedy, which could be partaken of, containing within itself the divine and revitalising substance, so that by taking this immortal food, poisoned and death-stricken man could be healed and rescued from his suffering. But in order that this Tree of Life could be replanted; it was requisite beyond all things that the corruptible material in the centre of the earth should be first regenerated, resolved and made capable of being again one day a universally vitalising substance.

This capacity for new life, bringing about the dissolution of corruptible essence which is inherent in the centre of the earth, was,however, possible to no other matter than divine vital substance enveloped in flesh and blood which could transmit the hidden forces of Life to dead nature. This was done through the death of Jesus, the Christ. Tinctural force which flowed from His shed blood penetrated to the innermost parts of the earth, raised the dead, rent the rocks,and caused the total eclipse of the sun when it pressed from the centre of the earth where the Light penetrated the central darkness to the circumference, and there laid the foundation of the future Glorification of the world.

Since the death of The Christ, the divine force, driven to the earth's centre by the shedding of His blood, works and ferments perpetually to press outward, and to fit and prepare all substances gradually for the Great Cataclysm which is destined for the world.

But the rebuilding of the world's edifice in general was not the only aim of Redemption. Man was the principal object for the shedding of Christ's blood, and to procure for him already in this material world the highest possible perfection by the amelioration of his being, Jesus, The Christed One, submitted to infinite suffering.

He is the Saviour of the world and of man. The object and cause of His Incarnation was to rescue us from sin, misery, and from death. The Christ has delivered us from all evil by His 'flesh', which He sacrificed, and by His 'blood', which He shed for us.

In the clear understanding of what consists this 'flesh' and this 'blood' of The Christ lies the true and pure knowledge of the real regeneration of man.

The mystery of being united with The Christ, not only spiritually also corporeally, is the greatest aim of the Inner Church. Become one with Him in spirit and in being is the fulfilling and plenitude of the efforts of the Elect.

The means for this real possession of God is hidden from the wise of this world, and revealed to the simplicity of children.

Vain philosopher, bend thyself before the grand and Divine Mysteries that thou in thy "wisdom" canst not understand, and for the penetration of whose Secrets the feeble light of human reason, darkened by sense, can give thee no measure!

[END QUOTING]

Excerpted from Letter V of "The Cloud Upon The Sanctuary" - published 1802 - Karl von Eckartshausen

Please note that the mission of The Christ was not to "forgive sins in advance" as clerics and laymen alike have erroneously claimed for centuries. Through direct penetration of the planet and the transmutation of the substances of the earth - the substances of which man is made - a foundation was laid. A way was provided that would afford future humanity a greater opportunity to awaken their divine sparks, purify their microcosms and achieve permanent liberation from the Wheel.

To use an analogy, if a person is dying from an infection or a virus, a topical treatment will not do. Medicine will have to be injected directly into the body in order to combat and eradicate the infection or virus. Remember, all dis-eases or dis-orders originate from within. As above, so below. As with man, so with the Earth.

Since our gross physical body and our three subtle bodies (etheric, astral and mental) are all created from the Earth's own gross and subtle bodies, any cleansing of the Earth's vehicles naturally results in finer substances for man to build his future bodies from. Over the centuries, with guidance and nurturing from the hidden realms, humanity has been slowly and purposefully guided to this point in time. If it were not for the work of The Christ those centuries years ago, man would not have the ability to respond to the Aquarian energies in significant numbers during this present period. Because of the sacrifice this Great Being made, we now have a better chance at escaping this prison, but only if we take advantage of the Grace that is being offered to all of humanity during the close of this major world cycle, which is now upon us.

The magnitude of what took place on this planet 2,000 years ago cannot be emphasized enough. The titles of Saviour and Redeemer are truly fitting. God does not forsake the work of His hands. It was to that end that Mercy was granted to mankind, and Divinity incarnated on Earth.

The Salvation Of Man

2011-11-10T14:42:00.002-05:00

[QUOTING]

Before the Fall, man was wise, he was united to Wisdom; after the Fall he was no longer one with Her, hence a true science through express Revelation became absolutely necessary.

The Revelation was the following:

The condition of immortality consists in immortality permeating the mortal. Immortal substance is divine substance, and is no other than the magnificence of the Almighty throughout nature, the substance of the world and spirits, The Infinity, in short, of God in Whom all things move and have their being.

It is an immutable law, that no creature can be truly happy when separated from the Source of all happiness. This Source, this 'in Whom', is the magnificence of God Himself.

Through the partaking of destructible nourishment, man himself became destructible and material; matter, therefore, as it were, places itself between God and man, that is to say, man is not directly penetrated and permeated by divinity, and, in consequence, he is thenceforth subject to, and falls under the dominion of, the laws regulating matter.

The divine in man, imprisoned by the bonds of this matter, is his immortal part, the part that should be at liberty, in order that its development should once again rule the mortal. Then once more does man regain his Original Greatness.

But a means for his cure, and a method to externalise what is now hidden and concealed within, is requisite. Fallen and unwise man of himself can neither know nor grasp this expedient; he cannot even recognise it, because he has lost pure Knowledge and the light of true Wisdom; he cannot take hold of it, because this remedy is infolded in interior nature, and he has neither the strength or power to unlock this hidden force. Hence, Revelation to learn this means, and strength to acquire this power are necessary to man.

This necessity for the salvation of man was the cause of the determination of Wisdom, or the Son of God, to give Himself to be known by man, being the pure substance out of which all has been made. In this pure substance, all power is reserved to vivify all dead substance, and to purify all that is impure. But before that could be done, and the inmost part of man, the divine in him, be once more penetrated and re-opened again, and the whole world be regenerated, it was requisite that this divine substance should incarnate in humanity and become human, and therein transmit the divine and regenerative force to humanity. It was necessary also that this divine human form should be killed, in order that the divine and incorruptible substance contained in the blood should penetrate into the recesses of the earth, and thenceforth work a gradual dissolution of corruptible matter, so that in due time a pure and regenerated earth will be presented to man, with the Tree of Life growing once more, so that by partaking of its fruit, containing the true Immortal essence, mortality in us will be once more annihilated, and man healed by the fruit of the Tree of Life, just as he was once poisoned by the partaking of the fruit of death.

This fact is the first and most important revelation and it embraces all, and it has been carefully preserved from mouth to mouth among the Chosen of God up to this time.

The Fall Of Man

2011-11-10T13:16:00.001-05:00

[QUOTING]

... all mere moralizing with words is of little use when real means are necessary.

We have been moralizing in varied words for centuries, but the world remains pretty much the same. A doctor would do but little good in talking only of his remedies, it is necessary for him actually to prescribe his medicines; he has, however, first to see the real state of the sick person.

The condition of humanity - the moral sickness of man - is a true case of poisoning, consequent upon the eating of the fruit of the tree in which corruptible matter had the superiority.

The first effect of this poison resulted thus: the incorruptible principle, the Body of Life as opposed to the body of sin or death, whose expansion caused the perfection of Adam, concentrated itself inwardly, and the external part was abandoned to the government of the elements. Hence a mortal matter gradually covered the immortal essence, and the loss of this Central Light was the cause subsequently of all man's sufferings.

Communication with the World of Light was interrupted, the interior eye which had the power of seeing Truth objectively was closed, and the physical eye opened to the plane of changing phenomena (the material world).

Man lost all true happiness, and in this unhappy condition he would have for ever lost all means of restoration to health were it not that the Love and Mercy of God, Who had no other object in Creation but the greatest happiness for Its creatures, immediately afforded to fallen man a means of recovery. In this means, man, with all posterity, had the right to trust, in order that while still in his state of banishment, he might support his misfortune with humility and resignation, and, moreover, find in his pilgrimage The Great Consolation: that every corruptible thing in man could be restored perfectly through the Love of a Saviour. Despair would have been the fate of man without such revelation.

Man, before the Fall, was the living Temple of Divinity, and at the time when this Temple was destroyed, the plan to rebuild the Temple was already projected by the Wisdom of God; and at this period begin the Holy Mysteries of every religion, which are all and each in themselves, after a thousand varying modes, according to time and circumstances, and method of conception of different nations, but symbols repeated and modified of one solitary Truth, and this unique Truth is - The Re-union of Man with God.

Apocalypse: Revelation Of "The Unknown-Unknown"

2011-11-10T12:31:00.001-05:00

Quick interruption here to discuss the meaning of an oft-misunderstood word:

Apocalypse

In modern times, this word has come to represent "cataclysmic destruction", "end-of-the-world", etc. This is hysterically incorrect. The following definitions were taken from the Online Etymological Dictionary, which is where one goes to find the sources and original meanings of words which exist today devoid of their true meaning.

apocalypse

late 14th century, "revelation, disclosure", from Church Latin. apocalypsis "revelation", from Gk. apokalyptein "uncover, disclose, reveal," from apo- "from" (see apo-) + kalyptein "to cover, conceal" (see Calypso).

So, an apocalypse is that which discloses or uncovers that which has been concealed. It is a revealing. Which brings us to

revelation

circa.1300 A.D., "disclosure of information to man by a divine or supernatural agency," from O.Fr. revelacion, from Latin revelationem (nom. revelatio), from revelatus, pp. of revelare (see reveal).

Readers are asked to keep the above in mind, going forward.

Some of the things that are outlined in this blog may appear strange, out-of-the-ordinary, fantastic and utterly hard to believe. That is because these things have been hidden, concealed from humanity. To us, they are unknown unknowns. The result of mankind's Fall from Grace was a loss of inner vision ("in-sight"). Because the overwhelming portion of mankind is completely unable to apprehend Truth on our own while existing in this fallen state, the Truths that we need in order to be able to achieve liberation from this world of death and decay can only be made known to us by way of apocalypse -- it must be revealed to us. That has been the sole mission of all the divine avatars (Krishna, Buddha, Lao Tzu, Jesus The Christ) and their messengers for thousands of years.

Here at the culmination of this major world cycle, that mission still lives in earnest.

“There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know that there are known unknowns; that is to say, we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones where we don't know that we don't know.” -- Donald Rumsfeld

The Corruption Of Man

2011-11-08T17:17:00.003-05:00

[QUOTING]

You must know, my brothers, that there is a dual nature: one pure, spiritual, immortal and indestructible; the other impure, material, mortal and destructible. The pure nature was before the impure. This latter originated solely through the disharmony and disproportion of substances which form destructible nature. Hence nothing is permanent until all disproportions and dissonances are eradicated, so that all that remains is harmony.

The incorrect conception regarding Spirit and Matter is one of the principle causes which prevent many verities of faith from shining their true lustre.

Spirit is a substance, an essence, an absolute reality. Hence, its properties are indestructibility, uniformity, penetration, indivisibility and continuity. Matter is not a substance, it is aggregate. Hence, it is destructible, divisible and subject to change.

The metaphysical world is one really existing, perfectly pure and indestructible, whose centre we call Christos, and whose inhabitants are known by the names of Angels and Spirits.

The physical world is that of phenomena, and it possesses no Absolute Truth. All that we call truth here is but relative, the shadow and phenomena only of truth.

Our reason here borrows all its ideas from the senses, hence they are lifeless and dead. We draw everything from external objectivity, and our reason is like an ape who imitates what nature shows him outwardly. Thus the light of the senses is the principle of our earthly reason, sensuality the motive for our will, tending therefore to animal wants and their satisfaction. It is true, however, that we feel higher motives imperative, but up to the present we do not know either where to seek or where to find.

In this world, everything is corruptible. It is useless to seek here for a pure principle of reason and morality or motive for the Will. This must be sought for in a more exalted world - there, where all is pure and indestructible, where there reigns a Being of All-Wisdom and All-Love. Thus, the world neither can nor will become happy until this Real Being can be received by humanity in full and become its "All in All".

Man, dear brothers, is composed of indestructible and metaphysical substance, as well as of material and destructible substance, but in such a manner that the indestructible and eternal is, as it were , the destructible matter.

Thus, the two contradictory natures are comprehended in the same man. The destructible substance enchains us to the sensible, the other seeks to deliver us from these chains, and to raise us to the Spiritual. Hence, the incessant combat (within and without) between good and evil.

The fundamental cause of human corruption is to be found in the corruptible matter from which man is formed. For this gross matter oppresses the action of the transcendental and spiritual principle, and is the true cause, hence, of the blindness of our understanding and the errors of our inclinations.

When we examine the causes of the obstacles keeping the natural man in such deep abasement, they are found in the grossness of the matter in which the spiritual part is, as it were, buried and bound.

The nerves and fluidity of the brain can only yield us rough and obscure notions derived from phenomena, and not from truth and the things themselves; and as we cannot, by the strength of our thinking powers alone, have sufficient balance to oppose representations strong enough to counteract the violence of external sensations, the result is that we are governed by our sensations, and the Voice of (pure) Reason which speaks internally is deafened by the tumultuous noise of the elements which keep our mechanism going. Reason, which should be an absolute legislator, is continually slave to Sensuality, which raises itself as regent and, governing the Reason that is drooping in chains, follows its own desires.

If man wishes to be led to the True in such manner that we can only act after the laws of Reason, and from the purified Will, it is absolutely necessary to constitute the Pure Reason sovereign in man. But how can this be done when the matter out of which many men are formed is more or less brutal, divisible, and corruptible? Hence, misery, illness, poverty, death, want, prejudices, errors, and vices, the necessary consequence of the limitation of the Immortal Spirit in the bonds of brute and corruptible matter. Sensuality is bound to rule if Reason be fettered.

Thus, the best man is exposed to error and passions; the best man is weak and sinful; the best man is not a free man, and, therefore exempt from pain and trouble; the best man is subject to sickness and death, and why? Because all these are natural inevitable consequences incidental to the qualities of the corrupt matter of which he is formed.

Therefore, there could be no hope of higher happiness for humanity so long as this corruptible and material forms the principal substantial part of his being.

The impossibility of mankind to transport itself, of itself, to true perfection, is a despairing thought, but at the same time, one full of Consolation because, in consequence of this radical impossibility, and because of it, a more exalted and perfected Being than man permitted Himself to to be clothed in this mortal and destructible envelope in order to make the mortal immortal, and the destructible indestructible; and in this object is to be sought the true reason for the Incarnation of Jesus, The Christ.

A State Of Consciousness Is A State Of Life

2011-11-06T23:11:00.002-05:00

[QUOTING]

A state of consciousness is an electromagnetic state. Our consciousness is composed of seven centres, filled with magnetic fluid, with astral fluid, to be found in the head-sanctuary in the seven cerebral cavities. They are fed by the respiration process of the magnetic system in our brain that attracts the astral fluid of the intercosmic magnetic field. Consequently, your own state of consciousness depends entirely on the quality and the workings in the intercosmic field around you. Thus, it becomes clear in what way new periods come into existence. Changes within us are caused by changes in the intercosmic field around us. Such changes almost immediately bring about changes in manifested life and also in our lives.

The intercosmic magnetic field consists of twelve streams. These twelve streams manifest themselves, among others, in us. A plan that manifests itself in a period of time underlies these twelve streams. From all this, it appears that these twelve electromagnetic streams are controlled by other, stronger magnetic systems. Consequently, there are many magnetic systems that interact, either stronger or weaker. The magnetic field which brings duality into realization develops a series of periods and a course through time and space by mankind. In this course through time and space nothing can be decided by dualistic man. There is no independent choice in him to do so, Everything is decided for man. Mankind is being directed because a magnetic state is a state of consciousness and a state of consciousness is a state of life. Whatever exists in the electromagnetic field projects itself in our brains and manifests itself as consciousness; that which exists in us as consciousness, propels towards manifestation of life. Therefore, according to nature, we are completely directed. We have nothing to decide. Everything is decided for us.

Man is part of a magnetic process. Each man is part of a great body. Thus, a development comes and a development goes. The organism works like a clock. The hands keep turning and consequently, this entire plan, this complete course can also be known beforehand, can be ascertained through time and space by several data. This can be also ascertained when we take into account the relativity of time. The twenty-four hours of one day can last longer or shorter than those of the next, but still they remain twenty-four hours. Therefore, relativity does not detract from the order of time and space.

It would be nonsense to say: "Let us now...decide on this or that attitude of life by virtue of our state of consciousness". For we saw that in the order of time and space, nothing can be decided: we are lived. We know that the order of time and space, with its course of mankind, also leaves a susceptibility to yet another magnetic field of the Gnosis. Once we are connected with that other field we are lived by that field and undertake a compulsory course in it.

We only want to make clear to you that when we stand in a particular magnetic field, we are directed by that magnetic field. We are then, as it were, compelled to live in accordance with the laws of that magnetic field. When we have the choice between two magnetic manifestations, it is clear that we have to direct ourselves either to the course of one field, or to that of the other.

In summary, we determine that there are two magnetic fields, one of which operates on mankind by the virtue of our natural state and the other under certain conditions. Seen from the point of view of time and space, both fields work along the same lines of development for a certain time; however, the moment arrives when they part. Consequently, two groups of men come into being, each belonging to a different field and being dispersed totally within those fields, according to their bodily dispositions and to their moral and spiritual states.

Let it suffice to confirm that such a moment in world history has now begun. The two magnetic fields existing in our nature-order have been drifting apart since a certain date we have already passed. Therefore, we shall see particular groups of men and women completely change with regard to the ordinary dualistic type. One group goes the ordinary course of mankind, the other goes the course of the exceptionals, the course of The New Race. In this respect, consciousness determines the group-state and the personality-state.

If according to your state of consciousness you belong to the latter group, orientate yourself to this great and glorious moment in world-history and join in a new attitude of life. That will not cause you any trouble because a state of consciousness is a state of life. If you are conscious of the new period, there is only one solution for you: that your state of consciousness projects itself into a state of life.

So we join in a new attitude of life, not out of theory, but out of necessity of life.

[END QUOTING]

A Great Separation is now taking place, a separation of the sheep from the goats. It is a fact that no man can serve two masters. Therefore a choice must be made. The time has come to decide which field of life do we wish to belong. Will we choose to continue to be lived by the old, decaying nature-order, whose death we are now witnessing? Or will we choose to link up with a new life-field that has been prepared as an Ark for those who are ready to live in a glorious, immortal new state of life?

The Coming New Man II

2011-11-04T16:11:00.004-04:00

[QUOTING]

In the first letter to the Thessalonians [1 Thess. 4:13-47] Paul says with regard to the New Race:

"But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have passed away, that you may not grieve as others do, who do not understand these things.

For since we know that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Christ, God will bring with him those who have passed away. For this we say to you by the very word of our Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of our Lord shall not overtake those who are dead.

The Lord will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the archangel's call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And those who died in Christ will rise first, then we who are alive, who are left in the material sphere, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord'.

These mystical-transfigurist words, preached to death, so to speak, by ages of natural-religious practice and mis-used by countless people as if they were private property, contain the complete genesis scheme of the new Ecclesia.

In the first place, they show that Paul does not regard the regions of life in and of the reflection-sphere to be the heavenly domain. This is completely in accordance with transfigurist philosophy. The reflection-sphere and the material sphere of duality are but temporary domiciles. Therefore, everybody who has entered the process of the new genesis in the real, transfigurist sense (even if only in the elementary stages) should banish any shred of sorrow or feeling of loneliness. Such modes of behavior, considered quite normal for ordinary natural man, are a profound illusion for those liberated in the Light of Christ.

Of course, every process has its starting point. When you reach the point where you clearly see how much the process of sanctification physically affects the entire human microcosm and to what extent this process biologically and structurally is established in every fibre of our being, you will be in no doubt that the very start of this process must already be liberation. Awareness of separation, experiencing standing alone, is quite normal in ordinary nature but in the Light of renewal it is highly abnormal.

When we know this, we likewise understand that, as soon as the connection to absolute freedom has been attained, it does not matter on which side of the veil of death we live and exist. Whoever leaves the material sphere without this connection will have to return to incarnation, but whoever does possess this binding have nothing further to fear. The wheel of duality can no longer drag him back and no influence of the reflection-sphere can deceive him.

The Brotherhood is also active behind the veil of death and there, too, takes care of its pupils. A great many difficulties encountered here do not exist there, because the situations and conditions are totally different. There, in undisturbed peace, the pupils can continue the process they began in the material sphere. We shall certainly meet soon again after leaving our present sphere.

It is necessary to know these facts and consequently show no trace of sorrow at the death of one of our friends (g: those on The Path), as do others, who understand nothing of these things. On the contrary, we should be very happy when we see one of our serious fellow pupils pass the threshold of death earlier than we do. They are called: 'those deceased according to nature'.

Somebody deceased according to nature is not merely a man who has discarded his material body but who is already removed from every dualistic-natural effect and influence. Such a person, on leaving the material sphere, is led to a region which -- in essence and vibration -- lies beyond the reflection-sphere. This is what the expression 'deceased in Christ' means. But note: 'deceased according to nature' does not yet mean 'raised from the dead'! The resurrection comes only at the end of the process in which the 'deceased in Christ' finds himself.

We must state here that the state of being 'deceased according to nature' can also be attained while still living in the material sphere. It is the state of total I-dissolution. The advantage of 'being deceased' as opposed to the I-dissolution in the material sphere is clear. For the 'deceased in Christ' is free of the material body with its etheric double and can calmly continue building on the principles of renewal he has received, while the I-detached person in the material sphere must constantly acknowledge the presence and demands of a material organism belonging to the nature of death. It is also clear that, in the process of renewal, the deceased will precede the pupils still in the material sphere, as Paul says, because they are able to complete this process more rapidly.

We intended in this chapter to acquaint you with the fact that, in the midst of ordinary mankind, a new people from all countries and nations of the earth will emerge, a people of God, a countless multitude. This people, manifesting itself in and proceeding from the material sphere, has nothing to fear of death. On the contrary, death is an advantage for it. This people is prepared for a very special voyage, indicated by Paul as 'meeting the Lord in the air'.

This is a universal expression referring to a second and further process, pertaining to a progressive change from new-soul being to spirit-being: it is the voyage to the original, Immovable Kingdom.

You know, of course, that mankind as a whole, too, is subject to rotation, beginning at the dawn of another period of dualistic manifestation, ending in a cosmic revolution, repeating the path again and again. Near the close of a Cosmic Day, the situations and vibration conditions become such that no further beings can be saved and liberated until a new day of manifestation has dawned. Once the last person receptive to such a possibility has entered the process of liberation, the 'last trumpet' sounds. This means that all those, who have been liberated, are really taken from this dualistic field of life with both its spheres (material, reflection) and begin a glorious homeward journey.

The new Brotherhood, the new Una Sancta, has then been formed: It goes out to 'meet the Lord in the air'. It is the group freed of bondage from this earth. Its members were firstly ignited by the Spirit of God while they were still seekers, secondly, they 'passed away in Christ' and, finally, they have been taken up into the process of rebirth to become sons of God by the Holy, Universal Spirit.

The Coming New Man

2011-11-03T16:44:00.000-04:00

[QUOTING]

Perhaps you are familiar with various occult or ethnological speculations concerning the advent of a new human race on this earth and the nature and character of this race. Indeed, new human races have repeatedly emerged and disappeared over the course of millennia of years. Future dualistic manifestations (i.e., material worlds) will certainly prove no exception to this.

There are regions on our planet which can quite rightly be termed melting-pots of peoples. It is from such melting-pots that new races emerge in 'time' after undergoing much cleansing.

When cosmic revolutions occur (i.e., the end of a major world cycle), whole continents disappear and many other catastrophes terminate the lives of countless people, there are always individuals who escape and in some cases are deliberately brought to safety in advance: that is to say, they are transferred to safe regions. It is from such 'last remnants' of dualistic mankind that new races are cultivated. They offer all who perished in a cosmic revolution an opportunity to reincarnate.

No doubt you will have read fragmentary accounts of re-populations of our globe after its cleansing. Myriad legends and myths deal with this. We need to recall the story of Noah who, after escaping the flood, finds solid ground on Mount Ararat and along with his family, lays the foundation of another world-populace. We find the tale of Noah, in one form or another, in the myths of nearly every people.

Thus, the wheel of time revolves through the years, centuries and aeons; and Ecclesiastes rightly says: 'Is there anything of which one can say, See, this is new? It has already been, in the ages before us'; the same is true of the coming and going of human races. These are not essentially 'new', in the literal sense, but are older races or mixtures of them which return.

It is always the same things, facts and people, which in the constant revolutions of duality, measure up to current events. When we speak to you about the coming new man, you will immediately sense that we have no intention of informing you about a coming dualistic human race. As already stated, in its dualistic manifestation every new race already existed in bygone ages, so it is folly to call them 'new'. Even if they were new, such a racial manifestation would be meaningless to us. For we strive after liberation from the endless peregrinations through 'time', for the original life of the Kingdom of God which is not of this world.

We draw your attention to the fact that the pure, absolute Holy Language, too, contains statements relating to a new human race, in a special sense. This new race is known by various names. Sometimes we read of the coming of the people of God, sometimes of the Una Sancta, a Holy Brotherhood, etc. You will know all this but it is necessary to understand it correctly to avoid all sorts of errors.

There is a Holy Brotherhood, the Universal Brotherhood, the Brotherhood of the Original Kingdom, but the above-mentioned allusions in the Bible do not apply to this Brotherhood. No, our attention is drawn to the formation of an entirely new Brotherhood, an entirely new Una Sancta.

In order to obtain the right idea, let us consider the relevant problems from the point of view of time and space. We then see the dualistic-material world and mankind on one side, and the Kingdom of God with its inhabitants on the other. Separating these two worlds is a gaping chasm unbridgeable in time and space. Flesh and blood of the ordinary dualistic-material nature cannot cross this abyss. This is why, in the dualistic world-order, everything rotates like a wheel, continually returning, incessantly repeating.

We know that the Brotherhood of 'the other Kingdom' continually struggles to redeem fallen and captive humanity. Many people in this world react seriously and devotedly to the suggestions of the Universal Brotherhood. We do not know the exact number but they certainly exist. We do not know in which countries they live or to which peoples and nations they belong, but it is almost certain that people who thus react are to be found in practically every country.

All these people, from that immense variety of countries and nations, will, at a certain moment in world history, be drawn from those countries and from all directions, to form one community, a very special, exclusive race. It will not bear the characteristics of some region of this earth, but be lifted from the doom of the dualistic-material rotating wheel and achieve the miracle of leaping the unbridgeable abyss to the lost Fatherland. It is to this new community in genesis that the Holy Language refers.

Since the moment for the formation of such a race has come in our time, it is our duty to draw your attention to the fact. We must establish how all this will be accomplished and study various aspects of this wonderful development. We firstly intend to approach this exceptional wondrous manifestation and development of a totally new, non-dualistic type of man in this dualistic-material world from the mystical-philosophical angle. We shall then investigate how all this can be realised and which consequences we may ultimately expect.

Seek More Light

2011-11-03T00:41:00.000-04:00

…And as they were speaking, Jesus appeared in their midst and said: ’Truth, one and absolute, is in God alone, for no man, neither any body of men, knows that which God alone knows, who is the All in All.

To men is Truth revealed, according to their capacity to understand and receive. When one climbs a mountain and attaining one height, he says: 'This is the top of the mountain, let us reach it', and when they have reached that height, lo, they see another beyond it. So it is with Truth.

Therefore condemn not others, that you be not condemned. Be faithful to the light you have, till a higher light is given to you. Seek more light, and you shall have abundantly; rest not, till you find.

Beyond Our Perception

2011-11-02T00:04:00.002-04:00

[QUOTING]

The range of action of our perception is enormous. We look over distances of light years into the starry skies; from afar, we hear the wind rushing up; days and weeks in advance, we sense a threatening earthquake, and we experience the shiver of a tension field. But the silent grief of the man standing next to us in the streetcar wholly escapes us.

Perception is limited by a natural, innate faculty that we call ‘consciousness’. What falls outside it, doesn’t even exist for us, or at best, we only vaguely imagine it. Nevertheless, we have a very high opinion of this consciousness, due to the range of action of our seemingly immense field of perception. This is not wholly unjustified, at least considering the line of development of the personality, but it is and remains self-consciousness; it actually only looks around in its own small world, into everything that concerns itself.

We have built a wall around our private universe: this is I! Through time and within this world, a considerable potential of knowledge, experience and insight may have been assembled, but we actually have hardly any idea about where we are, who we are and what we have come to do here. Virtually daily, we are confronted with incomprehensible, impossible, and absurd situations and events that we accept grudgingly. We live in a kind of dream state, in which the moment of awakening is continuously on the brink of occurring, but is time and again postponed.

This dream keeps us within the borders of a realm that is described as ‘locked within itself’ or as ‘the ring pass not’ by those who were allowed to cast a glance past this border. Then we see this enclosure, this limitation almost as a geographical fact, and we understand that it is not ‘the sky that is the limit’, but rather our consciousness is. And we somehow know this. Our wondrous human brain has discovered that what it thought to be unlimited access to all knowledge and understanding is, in fact, its very limitation. This insight must once have generated the concept of ‘consciousness’, in dictionaries described as ‘the awareness of oneself and one's environment’, a definition that does not suggest such a wide view.

Yet, in this environment, invariably persistent rumours and suspicions crop up that there is more between heaven and earth than what our perception causes us to surmise. This refers to another reality that lives in us, but which we are not (yet) allowed to behold with images and suggestions from a realm which our mind is unable to grasp. These images and suggestions, consequently, will remain moot points forever – like the existence of a supreme being and a corresponding hereafter, populated by historic-legendary entities. It is the intangible vista of the remote corners of our perception with archetypes and symbols that, surpassing intellect and proof, incessantly keeps the memory of another reality alive. To some people it is real; others believe in it; the majority laughs it off as food for simple souls.

He who nevertheless would like to explore this "hereafter" and everything around it, sticks to the existence of a fourth dimension. However, reality does not stop at multidimensional theories. Reality is a single unity; it is what is. Sometimes it is also called ‘the All’ or ‘the Word’, without apparent form or place, yet all-pervading and omnipresent. There is – beyond our perception – an unimpeded interaction between the world of matter and the world of the spirit. After all, they were never really separated; the wall that we imagined around our own world appears to be an optical illusion, nourished by the overwhelming supply of matter that hides the reality from our view like a veil. As long as we are not aware of it, we continue to comb our little kingdom for something new, for something of true value, for an experience of ‘that is it’. We can keep this up for a long time, but ultimately, it will time and again ‘just not be it.’

By the way, in our stage of development, this is the ordinary course of events, including disbelief, doubt and mockery. According to universal cosmology, the earth period is only the initial stage of construction of self-consciousness, a stage in the human development that enables us to discover a new phase in our development behind the delusion of this world. It is a lengthy and tiresome process through the temptations of matter to a new, higher form of life, the path to our true destiny. This is also true for our consciousness: behind matter, the Spirit stands; behind our old consciousness, the All-Consciousness stands, also called Cosmic Consciousness.

One day, the cup of our experiences will be full and we will be tired of this world: nothing is what it seems to be, nothing is permanent, and everything comes and goes in never ending repetition. This turning point may lead to resignation or bitterness, but it may also lead to an Awakening, a shift in our attention from the familiar possession-honour-power, the attributes of the old ego, to the silent signs from the borderland of our consciousness, which had been drowned out by the noise of the earth for so long. This is also a shift from ‘I’ to ‘we’, by which our little ego gradually loses itself, and rediscovers its place and purpose in the great Ego, the basis of our true being. Expressed mystically: it becomes a self-consciousness that can be transformed through love.

What was vague conjecture before, now crops up in the human heart as a living reality. Although we seem to be robbed of any perspective, a new perspective awaits us. Primordial images appear and merge into a Light, in which the delusions of our old consciousness gradually disappear. Walls crumble, borders fade and in a great vista, the old and the new consciousness pass into a radiant morning.

Just beyond our ability to perceive, lies an entire universe of absolute Permanence, absolute Love, absolute Peace. We but need to 'turn the dial' of our consciousness just a small bit in order to be able tune to this divine reality. There are steps that are required in order to be able to do this...the first is to be able to shut out the noise of your 'self' and this world. This may take some effort. One must reach the point of abject surrender, so fatigued with the folly of responding to the desires of lower self, so utterly "used-up" by the suffering and sorrow of earth 'life', that one is finally ready to lift one's head and cry out for Redemption.

It is then that the traveler becomes the Seeker, and the task of achieving a fundamental reversal in one's attitude can begin.

When this happens, the hand has reached for the dial.

What Has Been...It Shall Be Again!

2011-10-30T20:10:00.005-04:00

[QUOTING]

"All is vanity! What profit has a man of all his labor which he takes under the sun? One generation passes away, and another generation cometh...and nothing is changed. The sun rises, and the sun sets. The wind goes towards the south, then turns about unto the north; it whirls about continually, and returns again according to its circuits. All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full.

All things are full of labor; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing.

The thing that has been, it shall be again. And that which is done, it shall be done again. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, 'See, this is new'? It has been already in times of old, which was before us. I have seen all the works that are done under the sun and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. That which is crooked cannot be made straight, that which is wanting cannot be numbered.".

This attitude towards life teaches us -- and esoteric science and experience prove it -- that mankind manifests itself in a dualistic field of life, both on this side and on yonder side of the veil of death.

The dualistic sphere of life involves a constant interchange between the two poles of life; it involves the fact that all things, all values, all situations, turn into their opposites! Day becomes night -- light becomes darkness -- good becomes evil, etc., and vice versa!

There are no static (fixed, changeless) values in our field of life.

One cannot post oneself at the pole of good, thinking, 'Now I am safe and sheltered and out of harm's way', because that pole will turn about.

Therefore, it is not that this world is wicked, that is to say, evil is not inherent in our field of life, but our field of life is dualistic, and in that dualistic field of life we have created evil, satanism. Our field of life can be no more designated as good than as evil. It is neither of these, it is maya, -- delusion. And we are held captive in that delusion by evil, or whatever else we care to call it.

And so, 'what has been...it shall be again'

In the service of that Voice, brotherhoods such as the Essenes, the Manichaeans, the Cathars and the Rosicrucians, have sought to shatter the Great Delusion, and this is still their quest.

Yes, 'what has been...it shall be again!'

Then is all striving not vanity? Is that hopeless, unavailing, interplay not the eternal ending?

'What has been...it shall be again!'

Now, envision these words as radiant optimism...as a Great Joy that will one day be the portion of all peoples!

There once was something...not in the dualistic field of life...an original world order...a human order of the sons of God...and it shall be again...!

Mankind does not have to build that world order, does not have to found that Kingdom: It exists! It is that unknown half of the world of which the Fama Fraternitatis testifies -- it is revealed to us. There is where the Universal Brotherhood is; therein dwells the Love-power that surpasses all understanding!

Man does not enter that unknown half of the world after he breathes his last breath, because whether he is in his physical body or out of it, that part of the world remains unknown to him who serves the Great Delusion.

The unknown half of the world is omnipresent; it penetrates our domain of life, in the same way as the fourth dimension stands perpendicularly upon the three known dimensions. All mankind has, at one time, known this unknown world. Therefore, many have had the inextinguishable remembrance and that consciousness of being of divine origin...that is why there is that battle...and that struggle...and that cry for deliverance...and those songs of 'man is good'...and also, that obtruding reality of evil.

And that is why the messengers go out and prophesy: Wake up, ye children of the Light...for what has been...it shall be again!

And the way is being revealed...the path of life itself...the Path of the Return.

'Tis not a dream or a fantasy. The above speaks of the Reality to which we can and must return. At the end of every major world cycle, the Harvesters are sent forth into this fallen world to "gather the fruit into the barn". That moment in time is once again upon us. Every member of mankind now has two options to choose from:

a. dismiss this opportunity for salvation and retreat into ignorance, where we shall be obliterated, or

b. grab the Golden Thread that is being offered to us, make the fundamental reversal in our Thinking, Feeling and Willing, and earnestly Seek the path that leads out of darkness, into Light.

Are you ripe for harvest? Are you through with feeding this illusory duality? Are you surrendering the self, the "I", in order to enable the rebirth of the soul? Noah, Atlantis, Sodom and Gomorrah...always during the darkest of times, a Call is sent forth. A Light shines to lead those who are able to see it on their way out of darkness.

And It's Not Just Archons and Aeons...

2011-10-25T18:16:00.003-04:00

There are some very cunning, unfeeling and black-hearted humans here on earth who serve as the physical arm of the dark brotherhood living in the astral realms on the other side of The Veil. It is the duty of these human operatives to design and implement the plans and traps inspired by the brothers of the shadow. Take the following on mind-control, for example. Something i came across while rummaging through some archives...

[QUOTING]

The mind-altering mechanism is based on a subliminal carrier technology: the Silent Sound Spread Spectrum (SSSS sometimes called “S-quad” or “Squad”). It was developed by Oliver Lowery of Norcross, Georgia and is described in Patent #5,159,703, “Silent Subliminal Presentation System”, dated October 27, 1992. The abstract for the patent reads:

“A silent communications system in which nonaural carriers, in the very low or very high audio-frequency range, or in the adjacent ultrasonic frequency spectrum, are amplitude-or frequency-modulated with the desired intelligence and propagated acoustically for inducement into the brain, typically through the use of loudspeakers, earphones or piezoelectric transducers. The modulated carriers may be transmitted directly, in real-time, or may be conveniently recorded and stored on mechanical, magnetic, or optical media for delayed or repeated transmission to the listener.”

According to literature by Silent Sounds, Inc., it is now possible, using supercomputers, to analyse human emotional EEG patterns and replicate them, then store these “emotion signal clusters” on another computer and, at will, “silently induce and change the emotional state in a human being”.

CLONING THE EMOTIONS

By using these computer-enhanced EEGs, scientists can identify and isolate the brain’s low-amplitude emotion signature clusters, synthesise them and store them on another computer. In other words, by studying the subtle, characteristic, brainwave patterns that occur when a subject experiences a particular emotion, scientists have been able to identify the concomitant brainwave pattern and can now duplicate it. “These clusters are then placed on the Silent Sound carrier frequencies and will silently trigger the occurrence of the same basic emotion in another human being! ”

Everything in the universe vibrates at its own peculiar frequency, amplitude and wavelength. Your controllers recognize this elementary fact of the cosmos and are able to use it against you. The foregoing information confirms that a technology exists that can literally "make you feel" a certain way. Now, think of all the radiative technology-hardware that surrounds you on a daily basis: cell phone towers, television and radio antennas, the HAARP system, even your own television set...all are able to BROADCAST a frequency, a vibration. If this frequency is so high that you cannot hear it, but at the proper level for your brain to receive it, you are susceptible to frequency attack on a minute-to-minute basis. Feeling depressed or angry for "no reason at all"? Hmm.

Another example: from personal investigation, this writer strongly believes that "vibrational warfare" was the reason that the millions of tons of steel and granite that composed the Twin Towers vaporized into dust ten years ago. Sonic weaponry works on the premise that if you can match the vibration of an object with the same vibration, but at a higher harmonic, you can de-stabililize that object until it disintegrates (i.e., shakes itself to pieces). Just as when a tuning fork is struck by another of the same pitch, both will vibrate at the same pitch.

It's called RESONANCE (remember that word, because there's a future post that will be based upon it).

To the common man, it's called "magic". To the dark brothers, these are just "tools of the trade".

This is a tuning fork..

These are a whole BUNCH of REALLY BIG tuning forks...

i'm just sayin'...

P.S.:

This post was not designed to encourage anyone to go on a wild-goose chase looking for answers to one of the many unsolved plots that have victimized humanity over the centuries. Our adversary is quite clever, and has thousands of years of experience at deception. It is a waste of energy to spend too much of one's time trying to figure out "how they did it". And even if one could come up with as plausible a theory as the one just placed before you, no one would believe it, as humanity has been thoroughly and completely brainwashed.

Our time is much better spent in trying to awaken that sleeping Spark that resides in our hearts, serving our fellow souls, reversing the trend of our own behavior and seeking the Path of Light.

Aeons 101

2011-10-21T18:05:00.007-04:00

The following is a short primer on aeons and their relationship with humanity. This subject continues to show up in this blog because it is of critical importance in understanding the nature of our bondage and in learning what we must do to break these invisible chains.

An aeon is an enormous thought-form that has been vivified and maintained by humanity. When first created, it is a creature with "dead-eyes". As it is continuously fed via the thoughts, feelings and ether-bleedings of humans, it can grow to enormous proportions and develop a primitive, yet powerful will of its own. There are many different kinds of aeons. Perhaps you've heard of The Seven Deadly Sins (Wrath, Greed, Sloth, Pride, Lust, Envy and Gluttony)? Well, you can be sure that there is an aeon representing each one of these cardinal vices.

Let's take an elementary look at how aeons are formed, how they are sustained and what are their effects on mankind. By way of example, we will use the Aeon of Greed.

Remember...THOUGHTS ARE THINGS. THEY GO SOMEWHERE.

Let us say that a group of men all harbor powerful urges to become the wealthiest man in the world. Their minds are focused upon this goal both day and night. Every action they undertake, every thought they have is bent upon helping them to achieve this outcome. All of their plans, their relationships and their designs are undertaken within the constraints of this very narrow focus - the ruthless acquisition of wealth.

Such one-pointed determination eventually leads these men to success (or ruin). Some will become unbelievably wealthy (by earthly standards). Along the way, their powerful, individual thought-forms of greed, power and wealth will have coagulated (in the astral realms) into a large, unified "thought-form of greed". We call this thought-form an aeon.

With every greedy thought, emotion or act, these men "feed" this astral Aeon of Greed. The problem is magnified when we realize the following: these men are connected to this aeon. It is their creation. In truth and in fact, it was their thoughts, feelings and emotions that combined to create this monstrous thought-image! Universal Law holds that we are always tied to our thought-creations (which is why we are always advised to be careful of what we think, feel, say or do. Better yet, we are also urged to keep silent). Their link, or connection with this aeon maintains it, gives it constant nourishment.

For its part, the aeon responds by radiating strong impulses back to those men who are connected with it. We can liken these impulses to "suggestions". As long as these men remain tied to this aeon, as long as they continue to feed it with their thoughts, feelings and actions, the aeon will, in turn, continue to provide them with powerful ideas, intuitions, hunches, desires, etc. -- all tainted with greed, all focused upon the acquisition of wealth. At this point, the Aeon of Greed is no longer a creature with "dead-eyes". It is now self-willed creature, conscious of its own existence and with a desire to continue that existence. The creature has gained an ability to recognize that it must unceasingly influence mankind to entertain certain thoughts, feel certain emotions, perform certain acts, in order to receive the ether-bleedings that it needs to survive.

So the Aeon of Greed begins to radiate its impulses not only on the original group of wealth-seekers, but to mankind as a whole. Therefore, whoever may be susceptible to those radiations will "pick them up" and will feel an urge to pursue wealth, will begin to desire more. The pool of humans who are donating their thought-forms and low-grade ethers to this aeon will increase. Like an inescapable, escalating flood-tide, Greed goes global.

This is how aeons are born and this is how they thrive. We can apply this example to any of a number of human vices. Just as there is an Aeon of Greed, there is most certainly an Aeon of "Sex", of "Depression", of "Drugs and Alcohol", "Sadism", "Fame", "Political Power", "National Pride", "Race Pride", "Gambling", "High-Tech Gadgets" and on and on...

We think that we control our thoughts. We are quick to say that our thoughts are our own. The truth is that for the vast majority of men, women and children on this planet, their thoughts are not their own. Rather, they are simply responding to powerful impulses continuously sent forth by the many Aeons that act as parasites upon unwitting humanity.

How many times have you had a thought and then said to yourself, "where did that thought come from?". Well, now you know! Did you act upon it? Did you shoo it away? Nine times out of ten, we act upon it, because nine out of every ten men are too weak and too ignorant of the consequences to resist. Later on, after the deed has been consummated, we end up with another familiar thought..."Um, why did I do that?".

The reason we respond to these aeonic impulses is because somewhere in our aura, we carry vibrations of a similar nature. LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE. You may say, "no, I'm not greedy" or "Come on, I'm not prideful", but mark: if you are constantly having such thoughts "pop into" your head, or if you're constantly "feeling" a certain way, it is because you still harbor those impulses within you. These auric lights must be extinguished before we can be free of whatever "bad habits" we are prone to indulging in. We must adopt an air of neutrality when it comes to the capital vices or any other negative aeonic impulses that come our way. Only when we have extinguished every light and ceased to entertain these nefarious radiations, will we be free of their influences.

Think about the foregoing. Give it consideration. Again, not accepting or believing a Truth that has been presented to you does not make it any less the Truth. Work to neutralize the Impulses of Vice that surround and provoke you at every turn. STARVE AN AEON TODAY! It is hoped that the contents of this post will perhaps help at least a few to understand more fully the gnostic expression that states:

"MAN DOES NOT LIVE, HE IS LIVED".

The Answer

2011-10-19T01:02:00.006-04:00

We have been trained to disregard the Bible, disrespect religion. No question, religion has earned the right to be disrespected and the Bible has been mutilated so heavily as to render it nothing more than a storybook to many.

Atheism is now in vogue. It's cool to not "believe" in a Supreme Being. The religions of the world are a sham, mere shells of what they once were. Drenched in hypocrisy, they mislead and lie to their helpless flocks, who are seeking something they cannot remember. The Bible, originally a compilation of deep Truths and hidden Mysteries has, over the centuries, been adjusted by Man to suit Man's purposes. Only those with Wisdom are now able to penetrate its True meaning

Because these important connections to Man's understanding of himself and his purpose are broken, we now wander like lost and confused children. We know that we have a Home, but we just don't know where it is. We know that we want to return Home, but we just don't know how.

We have reached an epoch where Man, the lost child, having made a complete mess of the world, is now whole-heartedly wallowing in whatever filthy desire he can conjure up. We have lost our way, we have lost our connection to the Father, and so, once again, we have created false idols...of wealth, fame, power, war, violence, wanton behavior, movements, religiosity. Because we are unwilling to Seek the Truth, we have settled for the degenerate lies. We have locked ourselves into a prison of debauchery and vice, and have purposely swallowed the key.

This is nothing new. Evolution moves in cycles. Man rises, glimmers, fades, then dies, only to rise again, glimmer again, fade again, die again. Countless civilizations have walked the earth prior to this one. The cycles always unfold in the same manner. Atlantis was the most recent major example. Civilisations such as Sumer, Egypt, Greece and Rome are examples (on a smaller scale) of man's routine, inevitable path to degneration. We are now poised at the end of yet another Day of Manifestation, and it is time to collect those who want to go Home.

To do so, one must put away the things of this nature and set foot on The Path of Return. One has to accept that one is lost, without direction, without purpose, and begin to seek in a vertical, not horizontal direction. We must "look to the hills, from whence our help will come".

We do have a purpose. We do have a Home. There really is another world that is waiting for us. A New Earth. Waiting for those who are ready to throw off the false trinkets of this, the Dark Prince's world. The Answer cannot be found in the churches, for the churches have been corrupted. The Answer cannot be found in occult practices, because the era of occult practices has passed. The Answer cannot be found in "self-help" practices or gurus of any kind. Indeed, the lower "self" is a major part of our problem.

The Answer lies in that tiny little atom asleep in the heart, your Divine Spark. Only you have the ability to awaken that Spark. It can be awakened by the strength of your yearning to be free of this world, your aspiring to know the Truth, to Serve humanity, to love God.

Gnosis.

This writer understands that the world is crammed with an over-abundance of theories and ideas regarding things of the Spirit. It is difficult to get people to put their rational minds to sleep so that they can listen to their Inner Voice, the Voice of the Silence. Nevertheless, it must be told that something Glorious is about to take place for those few who, through their own efforts, will manage to become part of The Last Remnant.

Awaken! Change your ways while you can! Make straight your paths! Withdraw from the Pit of Despair that we call "The World". Prepare yourself for The Ark which is now boarding for a distant shore. We can achieve immortality, in this lifetime. It is within our power to do so. But we must let go of this world.

"Behold, I tell you a mystery; we shall not all die, but we shall all be transformed" 1 Corinthians 15:51

Mani's Guidelines

2011-10-17T23:48:00.002-04:00

[QUOTING]

The description Mani (216AD -274 AD) gave of the properties of ‘the Light soul’ and of the ‘physical soul’ is of an ultimate purity of argument, and may in this context form a practical guideline. To Mani, the gnostic, these two were fundamentally different. The Light soul originates from the powers of the Kingdom of the Light and the soul of the body from the same dark matter as that from which the perishable world also originated.

...both souls have the same properties, but how these properties work out in practice differs fundamentally. The properties concerned are: consideration, thought, intellect, intuition, decision. The results demonstrate the fundamental difference between both souls. In the soul of the body, the following properties result: wrath, lack of faith, desire, hatred, stupidity. In the Light soul, they generate: patience, faith, perfection, love, wisdom!

Therefore, as human beings, who want to restore the unity of God with the inner divine element on the basis of thinking, feeling and acting, we can distinguish from which soul we are living and acting. Mani wrote the following about this in one of his hymns.

What should I do, o Light, so that I may truly live?

Give your hands rest, and clothe yourself with the pure Truth.

Give your consciousness love, give your mind faith,

give your thoughts perfection,

give your decision durability,

and your considerations wisdom.

Make room within you for the white-winged dove,

do not place a serpent next to her.

Do not make room for sadness or anger.

Conquer desire,

overcome self-elevation and arrogance,

do not desist in your Love to God.

With perfection, you become perfect.

With patience, you will bear everything.

With the Gnosis, you will understand everything.

Keep to the Inner Law.

Perfect your deeds.

Remain unbreakably faithful to these things, for ever.

And you will live, my soul.

Man ... The "Little Cosmos"

2011-10-16T05:05:00.000-04:00

We begin this post with the crude illustration above in the hope that it may prove somewhat useful in visualizing what follows.

[QUOTING]

In the Universal Doctrine, the human being is seen as much more than just a physical body. In reality, the human being is a 'microcosm,' or cosmos in miniature.

The Microcosmic Firmament

The outermost layer of the human microcosm, surrounding us like an eggshell, consists of a magnetic field which we call the 'lipika'. The lipika can be seen, if you like, as the 'sky' of our own miniature cosmos, our own personal zodiac, because it is studded with many magnetic points like stars. These magnetic points act as filters, admitting from the cosmos into the microcosm only those energies which resonate with them. In most people, these magnetic points are attuned only to the dualistic order of existence, the universe of separation and death.

The Respiration Field

Inside this magnetic sphere is a space called the 'respiration field'. This space is filled with magnetic lines of force running from the magnetic points in the lipika to the material body of the temporary, mortal personality which is you or me.

The Subtle Bodies

As is widely understood these days, this material body consists not only of the physical body we can see and touch, but of more subtle bodies as well. Altogether there are -- in the present-day human being -- four physical bodies, each of different grades of subtlety, all interpenetrating each other. So our visible, material body is interpenetrated and surrounded firstly by the etheric or vital body, which guides and controls the life processes going on in the material body.

Interpenetrating the etheric and material bodies and extending some distance beyond them is the astral body. In this body, our desires and emotions, and our feelings of attraction and rejection are manifested and radiated outwards.

Then there is the mental body. This is concentrated mainly around the head and is involved in attracting and radiating all the forces concerned with our thinking processes. It is not yet really mature in the majority of human beings, so that in most people it is hardly possible to speak of a 'body' as such.

The Divine Seed

And now there is one last aspect of the microcosm we would like to mention – the Rose of the Heart, or spirit-spark referred to earlier. This Rose of the Heart is situated right at the centre of the microcosm at a point which coincides with the top of the right heart ventricle. The Rose of the Heart -- being the last remnant in the microcosm of its original, divine state -- is not affected by any of the forces at work in the dualistic nature order, the world of time and space. It can only react to the forces of the original, divine nature order.

So, until it can be touched by the divine forces it remains sleeping, dormant, like a seed. And like a seed, it contains the whole blueprint, the whole matrix, of the original, divine microcosm. It only waits for the divine sunlight to reach it, and then, with the cooperation of the human personality, it will be able to unfold and the whole microcosm will gradually be able to be restored to its original, divine state. But a lot has to happen before the human personality is willing and able to allow the divine sunlight to reach the Rose of the Heart.

The Path of Experience

We live our lives, we accumulate experiences, many of them painful, and then we die. When the physical body dies, the subtle bodies, too, are dissolved after a period of time, leaving only the sum of the experience gained in that lifetime, which is etched into the lipika. The microcosm then adopts a new system of physical vehicles through the process of birth. This is the cycle of birth and death, which goes on and on, lifetime after lifetime, until gradually -- mostly through suffering but sometimes through intense joy, too -- our consciousness and our desires are purified. At last the recognition begins to be born in us that our soul's deepest sorrow will never be alleviated by anything we might find in this world. The inkling may also dawn on us that our most profound moments of joy do not belong to the self we are accustomed to calling 'I' at all, but to something much higher. And there, at last, we stand before the Unknown, with open, empty hands. Still waiting, still hoping, but no longer expecting everything of the I-central self and its world. And at that point we can be helped.

[END QUOTING]

The foregoing will make no sense to many. Others may lose interest halfway through. That simply means that it is not time for them yet. But there will always be the few to whom what has been presented here may sound comfortably familiar. To summarize, it is the microcosm (what man calls "the soul") with its accumulated karma that re-incarnates, over and over. It is not us who repeatedly incarnate into the physical realms. Each incarnation, the microcosm assembles a new personality (Joe Smith or Jane Doe), whose job it is to neutralize and/or eradicate all karma so that the microcosm can be released from the bondage of having to return to the material sphere again and again. Upon its liberation, it will return to the divine kingdom, its former Home.

This is why we are advised to "get over ourselves". The issue that faces humanity is that personalitys are not doing their job. We get so caught up in the external influences of the material world, our karmic ties, our carnal desires and our self-identification that the connection with the microcosm is lost. As such, nothing gets accomplished during life, the personality dies a failure. All vestiges of who that personality was on earth dissolves, leaving an emptied microcosm. That microcosm has to wait many hundreds of years for a fresh opportunity and a new personality before it can try again.

We (personalities) are here to serve a single purpose...to liberate our microcosms. It doesn't matter who you are, what you do for a "living" or how low you may be on the totem pole. It doesn't matter if you're a thief or a priest, a whore or a king. Every personality has the same assignment and the opportunity to succeed in their assignment if they make the right choices during their walk on earth. The first thing that must be done is to stop looking at the "I" as the be-all and end-all of existence. We are not the show here...the microcosms that we are attached to are the stars of this show. We must cease our material striving and seek the Keys that will teach us how to accomplish this Great Work. The reward is liberation and immortality for the microcosm, continuity of consciousness and a re-establishing of the connection with All That Is, as Spirit unites with Matter..

For those who wish to take the first steps towards pursuing The One Goal of Life, The New Call is a good place to start.

This concludes a trilogy of posts. The other two being The Two Nature Orders and The Divine Spark

Cycles and Prophecy

2011-10-10T21:26:00.008-04:00

60 seconds = 1 minute
60 minutes = 1 hour
24 hours = 1 day
365.24 days = 1 year
2,160 years = 1 astrological age
25,920 years = 1 sidereal year, 12 astrological ages, 1 "World Year"

CYCLES

Everything in this universe of time-space (as opposed to space-time) moves in a cyclic, spiraling rotation. As noted above, such cycles can be observed from the smallest units of "time" measurement on upwards to much larger cycles. At the end-point of all of these cycles, both large and small, always a new cycle begins. Thus, it can't be said that there is really an "end-point" to a cycle. There is more of a "start-finish" line, of sorts. This clearly demonstrates that:

The end of every cycle is simultaneously the beginning of a new cycle.

The Ages Of Man

We are currently in the process of moving out of the Age of Pisces and into the Age of Aquarius. It is no coincidence that a time period of over 2,000 years has passed since the time of Jesus, The Christed One. In fact, if you examine the symbolism of the Bible, in the Old Testament you will see frequent references to bulls (Age of Taurus) and rams (Age of Aries). The New Testament makes reference to fish (Piscean Age) and to Man, i.e., "the Son of Man", "fishers of men", etc. This symbolizes the coming new Age, the Age of Aquarius.

The astrological ages are encountered in reverse order due to a celestial movement of the Earth which results in a "precession of the equinoxes". Each spring equinox, the Sun, due to a subtle but precise backwards motion of the Earth's axis called nutation, rises slightly to the left of where it rose the previous year. It takes 72 years for the Sun to cover 1 degree of space in this fashion. Since each of the 12 zodiac signs are allotted 30 degrees of space apiece (360 degrees), then a period of 2,160 years would have to pass before the Sun would rise in the next preceding sign (hence, the use of the word "precession").

A list of the last twelve Zodiacal Ages:

21748 BC - Capricorn
19588 BC - Sagittarius
17428 BC - Scorpio
15268 BC - Libra
13108 BC - Virgo
10948 BC - Leo
8788 BC - Cancer
6628 BC - Gemini
4468 BC - Taurus
2308 BC - Aries
148 BC - Pisces
2012 AD - Aquarius

In the table above, Aquarius and Leo are highlighted. In the zodiac, these two signs appear opposite of one another. It is interesting to note that the Great Sphinx standing guard on the Giza Plateau in Egypt consists of the body of a lion (Leo, ages past or behind us) and the head of a human (Aquarius, looking towards the horizon for the Age that is to come).

The Great Pyramid itself uses a combination of geometry, precise mathematical measurements and different types of stone (i.e., limestone = earthly, temporary; granite = 'of the spirit', eternal) to present a precise chronology of an ending cycle (see The Great Pyramid Decoded - Lemesurier). In addition to being a literal Hall of Records, a Testimony in Stone, it was also a Hall of Initiation for those who had thoroughly prepared themselves to surrender the lower, material self.

Why is it so hard for some to believe that we have reached the end of an important cycle of time?

To paraphrase a line from a motion picture of some vintage: "Either they don't know, or they don't want to know".

Man has always told time by way of the revolutions of the sun, moon and stars. When celestial bodies, following a regular and predictable motion, reach the end-point of a cycle, you can believe that such an occurrence means something, and is not to be ignored.

PROPHECY

The events of this ending cycle are nothing new. They have taken place countless times in the past. At the end of every cycle, there is a Reaping of what has been Sown. A select few make the effort to realize the import of the times and try to prepare accordingly. The rest just laugh and superciliously sneer, whistling in the dark on their way towards missing yet another Golden Opportunity.

Prophecy is not a "predicting" of what is to come or a "pre-visioning" of something that has never happened before. Prophecy is a preview of events which, having occurred and been recorded in previous cycles are certain to occur again. Prophecy is not a prediction, it is at once an advisement and a warning.

Like a grand game of Musical Chairs, 'round and 'round humanity goes. Where will you be when the music stops and the trumpet sounds? In what condition will your heart be found when the Cosmic Clock strikes the Hour of the New Beginning?

The Divine Spark

2011-10-08T17:21:00.007-04:00

The simple drawing above attempts to depict the human being, surrounded by the auras and magnetic fields that set the conditions for life in the fallen worlds. The blue area represents the un-divine universe, the yellow area represents the Eternal, Immovable, Divine Universe. That said, you are invited to read on.

The human body is composed of billions of atoms. These atoms, through attraction, form countless specialized combinations. These combinations result in the differentiation that we see in the human body. Sense organs, bones, muscles, etc. All of these billions of atoms are composed of fallen matter.

Except for one.

In every human heart, there is a single atom that is not composed of fallen matter. It is, in fact, built of matter from an order of existence higher and above the one we are currently exiled in. This atom is constructed of divine matter. The ancients refer to it as The Divine Spark.

This Divine Spark has no connection with the fallen world. It does not vibrate in resonance to any of the lower vibrations that this world surrounds us with. It responds only to the radiations of the Divine Kingdom - Christ Consciousness.

If one can rouse this spark to life, nurture its burning ember into a flame, it will eventually make a connection, a linking with the Divine Universe. Slowly, a magnetic attraction between man and the Divine will be re-established. This divine thread is our life-line. It is our ticket out of Hell. If one can activate this connection and sincerely build upon it, one's freedom from the Wheel of Death-And-Rebirth is virtually assured,

In the majority of human beings, this Divine Spark is asleep. Not only is it asleep, it is more than likely buried under a ton of low-vibrational muck. For the most part, mankind is completely unaware of the Treasure we carry within our hearts. This post can give only the briefest of outlines as to the nature of this atom and its purpose. It may be impossible for some to believe, but as always, that doesn't mean that it isn't true.

How do we awaken this spark? How do we re-establish our connection with "the Kingdom which is not of this world"?

SELFLESS SERVICE
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
NEUTRALIZATION OF DESIRES
SINCERE SEEKING IN A VERTICAL DIRECTION

You don't have to believe this writer. But you are asked to at least consider what has been written. After deep contemplation, perhaps you will come to the realization that The Shephard has not abandoned His sheep.

The Christ, through Jesus, left us re-assurances such as those below. It is hoped that after reading this post, some may come to understand more clearly what He was trying to tell us.

"The Kingdom of God is within you" Luke 17:21

"I am with you always, even to the end of the Age" Matthew 28:20

"My Kingdom is not of this world" John 18:36

Comments on "The Two Nature Orders"

2011-10-05T18:46:00.002-04:00

If you take anything away from the prior post "The Two Nature Orders" let it be this:

Your soul, my soul, the soul of those we love and of those we do not know are all marooned in a universe that appears to be a reality, but is not. It is only a relative reality, an imitation of the Real Thing, designed not to punish humanity, but to help us find our way back Home.

The biggest crime that we can commit against our fellow souls is to spend our entire physical lives in ignorance, following the crowd, doing what's popular, serving the self, never seeking the Truth. Such behavior ensures that we will "live" in the material world and then pass on to the reflection sphere without ever having come close to discovering our true purpose for incarnating here. It is a crime to waste an incarnation in such a careless manner. Sadly, we have been guilty of committing this crime for many, many thousands of incarnations now.

It cannot be over-emphasized how important it is for humanity to awaken from this heavy slumber. "Life" in duality is NOT A GAME. We have a vital and sacred mission to perform. If we choose to pollute our minds, our hearts and our bodies with filth and poison, we will most certainly fail in our duty.

We are literally in the business of saving souls. Literally. But we must first start with our own. If we cannot save our own soul, it will be impossible to help others do the same. Instructions on how to begin this process were left to humanity by the great Hermes Trismegistus, The Buddha, Lao Tzu and the latest Messenger of Truth, Jesus, The Christ of the Piscean Age.

Some of the Teachings have been diluted, some have been deliberately distorted, but despite this sabotage due to both cunning and ignorance, the Truth is still out there, waiting for you to find it. Not on some TV infomercial, not in the churches, not from some popular New-Age "self-help" guru, no. Remember the following: if it is popular with the masses, then it is not Divine. All one needs to do is look around and observe fallen humanity's wild, debauched behavior and false, hypocritical "religiousity" to verify that axiom. Remember that. Live by that. The Universal Teachings remain hidden from the profane ("do not throw your pearls before swine" - Jesus). We must prove ourselves worthy of having these Truths revealed to us.

How?

By purifying our thoughts! By purifying our emotions! By purifying our bodies! Above all, by living lives dedicated to SERVICE. Not the ordinary "look-what-a-good-thing-I-did!" type of service. No! We must offer to the world the kind of service that asks for no reward, shuns recognition, seeks to uplift and edify the lives of our fellow souls and the life of the planet. Unselfish, selflessly undertaken, a hand extended in caring, empathy and genuine, unconditional Love. Until one can begin living in this manner (not intellectualizing it or romanticizing it, but living it), the Truth will remain a Mystery.

In closing you are asked to remember the following: if you as a personality fail in this current incarnation to fulfill your mission of redemption, then after your transition to the reflection sphere ("death") you as a personality will slowly but surely cease to exist. All that will remain will be the accumulated karma of the un-redeemed soul. That soul will have to reincarnate at some future time, cultivate a new personality (who will have absolutely nothing to do with who you were) and that new personality will attempt to successfully complete the mission that you failed to complete.

The Glory of the impending close of this major world cycle is that an abundance of Grace is available to help us in executing and completing this task. But we must first recognize what is being offered, and then fit ourselves to be able to utilize its power wisely.

Don't leave your job, your duty, to the next personality. You are here now. Wake up! Do what you came here to do.

all love,

The Two Nature Orders

2011-09-29T22:55:00.000-04:00

The drawing above attempts to describe the universe that humanity believes it "lives" and "dies" in. Unbelievable as it may appear, difficult as it may be to grasp, it is nonetheless the truth. Outside of the perception of most humans is another universe, an eternal, divine order of existence. Humanity currently lives in exile, cut off from the divine kingdom.

The following is posted as a service to all who seek.

[QUOTING]

Our nature order -- the world of 'duality'

The evidence of our senses tells us that everything which comes into existence in the world we see around us will someday turn into its opposite. This constant interchanging of opposites is the fundamental essence of our world. In our yearning for absolute values -- for lasting peace, love, and truth -- we often tend to overlook that inescapable fact. Nevertheless, logic alone is enough to tell us that everything which comes into existence is going to disappear someday; it is only transitory, never absolute.

Think about this for a moment. Nothing we are, nothing we do, nothing we can create is going to last; sooner or later, it will all decay and return to where it came from. We are transitory creatures of an ever changing world. We begin to age and decay even before we leave our mother's womb. Nothing is perfect in our world.Nothing can last in our world. Change and death are the only two laws we can absolutely rely upon. They surround us inexorably, like prison walls. This fact is confirmed by Lao Tzu, Buddha, and all the world's great religious teachers.

So hasn't it ever struck you as strange that, in spite of the inescapability of imperfection, change, and decay, we still yearn for a perfect life? Haven't you ever wondered how it is possible, in view of the facts of life, that human beings can even have any notion of absolute values? How did the idea of the absolute, of perfection, even enter our heads? Where did it come from? Certainly not from the world we see around us.

Look. Someday, every one of us is going to die, and yet we maintain a kind of conspiracy of silence, a shared fantasy, in which we live our lives as if death did not exist! And if you have ever experienced the loss of someone close to you, you may have observed that there is a part of you that will never accept that this person has gone, no matter what beliefs you may or may not have about an afterlife. Wherever do we get these passionate longings for the everlasting, for the absolute, when all the evidence of our senses tells us that they do not exist?

Well, the concept of the 'two nature orders' offers an answer to this question. … we often refer to the nature order in which we live as the world of 'duality.' We use the word 'duality' because our world is characterized by constantly interchanging opposites. This 'dualistic world' includes not only the material, visible world we see around us, but also the realm our subtle bodies inhabit when we are asleep, and even in the after-death state.

The original, divine nature order

Apart from, separate from this 'dualistic world,' but occupying the same space, is another, quite different nature order. This second nature order is characterised by perfection, absoluteness, eternity. [We] call this second nature order the 'immovable kingdom,' because in it, duality and the interchanging of opposites do not exist. There is only an eternal growth and development, from glory to glory, and from power to power.

So you see, the eternal values, the absolute truth, freedom and love we long for really do exist, but not in our world, not in the world we belong to, the dualistic world.

Why does the dualistic nature order exist?

To understand why this dualistic world exists, it helps to remember that there is a plan underlying creation. [It is known as] 'the divine plan.' You could imagine the divine plan flowing like a stream, with a certain direction, momentum, and destination. Every creation is free to move in and out of the stream at will, gathering experiences along the way. However, as long as the creation always returns to the stream and remains, overall, in harmony with it, it will be carried along by the current, and all will be well. But if, in free will, a creation wishes to maintain itself permanently in a state not in harmony with the stream of the divine idea, what happens then? Let us try to see the logical answer to that question.

We can imagine what happens if we continue with our analogy of a stream of flowing water. If a creation seeks to exclude itself from the flow of the divine current, because it wants to hold onto some aspect of it, and make it permanent rather than allowing it to flow, it can only do so by becoming crystallized, like a heavy stone in the water. Then, because it is crystallized, heavy, it can no longer experience the helping, carrying effects of the current, but will experience its flow as a series of buffetings, just as any obstruction does when placed in flowing water.

This is a much simplified image of how the two nature orders have come into existence: the divine nature order -- where the helping, carrying, continuously developing effects of the divine stream are experienced; and the dualistic nature order -- the world we know -- in which the correcting effects of the divine stream are experienced, so that nothing is allowed to last and everything is constantly brought back to its starting point.

The Fall

Now can you see that becoming subject to the second system of laws -- the correcting system -- effectively isolates the creature from the world in which the first system of laws -- the divine system -- operates? And can you see that such a creature, that has deviated from its underlying plan, will remain isolated from the order of nature to which it originally belonged until such time as it chooses to return to the divine plan?

The Universal Philosophy teaches that, in the distant past, a large group belonging to the human lifewave did indeed decide, in free will, to deviate from the plan underlying their existence. In this way, they isolated themselves from the divine nature order and became confined to the dualistic order of existence. The result was that, eventually, all the faculties they had been able to use while still subject to the first, divine system of laws, atrophied, and they fell into a dormant state, in which they could not die, because they were eternal, but in which they were inactive, asleep.

The Task of Humankind

If you have followed us so far, you will be able to see in your mind's eye the dormant sparks of fallen, divine humanity, like seeds, unable to live, but unable -- either – to die. What could be done to rescue these dormant creatures? To bring them back to a state of true life again?

Consciousness and will are needed for this task, but the fallen divine creatures no longer have any, in their dormant state. Where can that consciousness, that willingness, come from? Well, [we are taught] that the human race as we know it was created for precisely that one purpose -- to act, consciously and willingly, as servants, for the restoration of the original, divine creature. That is the task, the calling, of every human being, and if we succeed in it, we too will be able to share in the life of eternity.

We, mortals, are not that divine creature, but we bear it within us, as a dormant spark. And it is within our power to allow that dormant spark to come alive again, and to return from its state of exile to the divine world, its home, the 'House of the Father.'

The Greatest Love

2011-09-26T00:26:00.001-04:00

"THOUGH I SPEAK with the tongues of men and angels, and have not Love in my heart, I am become as sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not Love in my heart, I am nothing.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not Love in my heart, I gain nothing.

Love is long-suffering and kind; Love does not envy; Love does not make a vain display of itself, and does not boast, does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not its own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; rejoices not over iniquity, but rejoices in the Truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never fails; but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part and we prophecy in part. But when that which is Perfect is come, then that which is imperfect shall come to an end.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

For now we see through a mirror, darkly; but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then shall I know even as also I am known.

And now abide faith, hope, Love, these three; but the greatest of these is Love".

1 Corinthians 13

The Love that Paul speaks of is not the earthly desire-emotion which we mistakenly call "love". It is The Christ, which is Love Itself, that he is referring to. It is this Love that we are to welcome into our hearts. It is this Love that will make transmutation and transfiguration possible. It is this Love that beckons us home.

Spirit, Soul, Body, Harvest

2011-09-10T23:06:00.004-04:00

Spirit -- that portion of us which is closest to The All, The Logos, God.
Soul -- that portion of us which Spirit uses (or attempts to use) to communicate its aspirations to the Body
Body -- that portion of us which is farthest from The All, The Logos, God
Harvest -- a reaping of that which has been sown

Spirit is Divine. Soul and Body, in this dispensation are fallen, un-divine.

The purpose of this trinity is to bring Heaven into contact with Earth. Spirit works through the Soul to communicate its aspirations to the Body. The Body, as the final link in the chain, acts in accordance to the directives that the Soul has received from Spirit. If those directives are divine in nature, the actions of the physical man will be divine as well. If these directives are un-divine, well, you can fill in the blanks.

Many, many thousands of years ago, the Souls of Men were sufficiently pure to act as a proper channel, an intermediary, as it were, between Spirit and Matter. Tragically, Man slowly fell victim to the forces of Fear and Darkness, thereby clouding the contents of their Souls and effectively cutting off pure communication between Spirit and Matter. This disconnect resulted in Mankind's loss of contact with The All, The Creator. Having lost our knowledge of Oneness with The All, Fear became our master. The Souls of men were no longer pure enough to receive accurate directives from Spirit. What was passed on to the Body were distorted reflections of what was True. Man walked, and still walks, in delusion and darkness.

As long as the threefold body is cut off from the threefold Spirit due to the pollution of the threefold Soul, Man will continue to walk in darkness. If Man were left in this condition permanently, he would sink deeper and deeper into depravity, perversion, violence and hate. Eventually, tragic and permanent destruction of the Soul would take place. This is not desired by Creator.

In an attempt to save Souls and provide a means by which Souls could return to an eternal, divine existence, an emergency order was established here on Earth, a divine plan of salvation. This emergency order was to serve as a temporary haven for the wayward Souls of the human life-wave (that's us). It would allow these Souls the freedom to completely experience what was "not divine", in the hopes that eventually these Souls would begin to seek what was divine and form a desire to return to a divine state of being. To do this, a physical body was necessary.

The Soul would use the Body to "take a dip into matter" for a short period of time, living in the material sphere. At some point, the Body would be discarded and the Soul, with its accumulated karma, would retire to the other half of this dualistic emergency order, the reflection sphere, or "heaven-worlds". There, the Soul would assimilate its experiences and spend a period of time in review, re-education and recuperation before its karma impelled it to once again return to the physical plane.

Prior to a Soul's return to the material sphere (re-incarnation) situations, relationships and events would be set up as part of a plan designed to coerce the Soul, during physical life, to somehow re-establish its contact with Spirit. Every incarnation is set up with this Ultimate Goal in mind: To re-establish contact with Spirit so that Spirit can lead the Soul out of darkness and back to the Divine Kingdom.

This is the over-riding purpose of our repeated incarnations upon this planet. It is hoped that we will suffer so much from the consequences of our ignorant, self-focused, mis-directed earthly behavior, that we will someday look to the heavens and cry in despair: "What is the point of all this pain and suffering? What must be done to escape this misery for good? Where is the path home? Where does salvation lie???".

When the Soul of the Man has tired of The Game, when the human begins to actively and sincerely seek a way out, it is then that a cry is sent forth from the human, which resounds and reverberates throughout the fallen universe. This cry of Searching, this cry of Seeking, this cry of Despair and Longing is always answered.Within the Heart of every fallen human is a single divine atom. It is the only part of our fallen being that is made of divine material. Because like attracts like, it is the only part of us that can attract and respond to divine influences. When "The Cry" is heard, Divinity responds, and this sleeping, divine spark of the heart is struck.What happens next depends entirely upon the human.

All good things must come to an end, however. We have reached the end-point of this particular major cycle of time in this particular emergency order. It is now time to "round up" those Souls who are closest to being able to effect a return to the Divine Kingdom. This round-up is commonly called The Harvest, for just as we nurture and care for our gardens and plantings, the time comes when the fruit ripens and must be picked, otherwise it will spoil on the vine. This period of Harvest is here now. Suitability for harvest will be determined by the state and condition of each individual Soul.

Some Souls will merit a return to the Divine Kingdom, where they will re-unite with Spirit, regain full-consciousness and achieve immortality. This is the Greater Harvest. Other Souls, who have reached a minimum level of suitability for Harvest but are not yet ready for "liberation" will be taken aside and advanced to a higher plane of physical existence, where they can continue the work of achieving The One Goal in relative peace and unity, free of the dark, nefarious influences of mixed-vibration 3D existence. This is the Lesser Harvest. At some future point, these Souls will have to return to 3D existence in order to attempt to achieve final Liberation. This must be so because a human must be in possession of all of their vehicles, right down to the dense physical, in order to obtain Final Liberation from matter.

Both the Lesser and Greater Harvest represent a freeing from 3D existence. Those laggards who do not qualify for graduation will have their Souls purged completely. Memories of all past lives, past karma will be erased. These individual Souls will be emptied, effectively ceasing to exist. They will remain "asleep" for a long period of time, until a new Day of Manifestation dawns which will afford them the opportunity to begin, once again, the ages-long journey towards The One Goal.

That's about as simple as it can be explained. No Angry-Old-Man-with-a-Beard-and-Booming-Voice mercilessly "judging" us. Simply Creator's Divine Plan of Salvation working its way towards it's inevitable, unchangeable climax. Just another Cosmic Cycle of Time coming to a close and the Fruits of a long-ago planting being readied for Harvest.

The future of your Soul now rests indisputably in your own hands. The importance of that knowledge cannot be over-emphasized.

Prepare Ye.

All Love,

The Biological Phenomenon

2011-09-09T00:53:00.001-04:00

Man, for all his vaunted "achievements" is unable to recognize the following fact: that we are but one step removed from the animal kingdom. The thing that sets us apart from the animal kingdom is the gift of a mental body which allows us to reason. We are able to rationally compare things and make decisions based on those comparisons.

The problem is that man does not use this faculty properly. The mental faculty is abused or worse, it is led about through the nose by our desires. The heart controls the head. It is only when head and heart are first purified, then permanently joined together and united in their functioning that man will begin to see progress towards godhood.

Right now, we are little more than glorified animals, lost and out-of-control. We are supposed to be a Spirit-Soul-Body trinity. Unfortunately, Spirit has been separated from its two lower aspects. The Soul, the microcosm, the intermediary, must be cleansed completely in order for Spirit to take up Its home there. This would unify the three aspects and allow Creator to truly experience Its material Creation through a fully conscious humanity..

The body is an important link in this chain. It is the chemical laboratory which is instrumental in the physical Transformation of the human. It is a sad shame to see people wasting their incarnations by abusing their bodies. They have no idea that they are destroying their own ticket to liberation.

We are not a finished product. We are simply a biological phenomenon, a headless body, a potential bridge to the next phase of our evolution. We must work to make our Temples a fit place for Spirit to inhabit. Especially now, in this critical period, where many, through the Grace of an Age, will be given the opportunity, the boost, to make that Transformation.

Love and Serve your fellow man, in whatever small way you can. Don't poison the body or the mind with chemicals or intellectual filth. Turn off the television. Learn as much as you can about humanity, our Predicament and our Promise. Distance yourself from this world. Seek true Knowledge. Know Thyself. Prepare. So much awaits those who are able to see what is over the horizon.

Get Over Yourself

2011-09-06T17:48:00.002-04:00

Some may not react to well to what they are about to read. Let it be so. There comes a time when certain things need to be voiced aloud, the truth placed in the open so that Man can have an opportunity to breathe it in a little. Whether people react favorably or not is of little importance. What matters is that they will have been exposed to something that may not have been previously apparent. Where things go from there depends on the individual and their level of seeking.

This post is about you, or should we say, this post is about who you think you are.

Look in the mirror. What do you see? The reflection of a physical apparition. This physical apparition we call "I" or "me". Because our bodies are not transparent, we cannot see the internal organs. Because most of us are not clairvoyant, we cannot see the invisible ethers that are used to construct and animate our etheric, astral and mental bodies. Therefore, we gaze in the mirror, able to view only the outer shell, and classify what we see there as "I" or "Me".

We are seeing through a glass darkly. That physical apparition, your human body, is nothing more than the final and most dense vehicle of the four vehicles of consciousness that combine to form your personality. This word "personality" has been misused for so long by the common man that it has lost its true meaning. The root of the word "personality" is the Latin word "persona" which means "mask". Our integrated bodies are but a mask used by our Consciousness to perform certain acts in the four lower worlds (mental, astral, etheric, physical). All four vehicles have important roles to play. Due to ignorance, man is hopelessly in love with his physical vehicle and cognizant of no others. This is to his detriment.

The four-fold personality is, in turn, enclosed in concentric fields of magnetic activity. One can say that we are encircled by these fields. These magnetic fields, in conjunction with the four-fold personality comprise what is called a microcosm ('little cosmos'). The average microcosm is completely in tune with the dualistic powers, the archons and aeons that rule this fallen world. All impulses to action come to us by way of these rulers, powers and authorities. Humans are firmly linked to these influences. We dutifully perform in whatever way we are impelled by these aeonic masters, all the while mistakenly believing that the impulse to do so originates from our own so-called "free will".

The best analogy available would be that of a marionette. The marionette dances gaily on stage and appears to have a certain autonomy, a voice of its own, a will of its own. However, out of sight and hidden from view, are the hands of the puppeteer, deftly manipulating the strings that are attached to each part of the marionette. It is the will of the puppet master that the marionette executes, not its own.

We think, we feel, we act, but our thinking, feeling and acting is not inspired by Christ-consciousness. We were disconnected from this Consciousness ages ago. The consciousness that now inspires us is a fallen, "self"-consciousness. This fallen self-consciousness is linked strand-for-strand with the unholy rulers that firmly grip the lower portion of the invisible worlds.

You think you are free, but you are not. You are allowed to "live" only so that these rulers can gorge themselves on the ether-bleedings you emanate. Whenever you express any self-focused thought, desire or action of any kind, you give off (from your four vehicles of consciousness) vibrations that are invisible, yet very, very, tangible. Meanwhile, outside of your range of perception, there are a host of unseen entities who literally survive off of these emanations. The more selfish, hateful, greedy, lustful, vengeful, etc. thoughts and emotions we allow ourselves to entertain, the more of these pernicious emanations we produce. Now, just multiply this by 7 billion human beings behaving mindlessly, impulsively and recklessly for a prolonged period of time and it would have to occur to you that the "beasts" we are feeding must be quite large and quite powerful, indeed. Big, healthy babies, thanks to man's ignorant self-focus.

As these powers feed continuously, they grow stronger. They issue unending rounds of powerful influences and shower them liberally over mankind. Again, we mindlessly respond to these impulses, thereby generating fresh ether-bleedings, unwittingly keep the food-chain-of-the-gods going. When we are no longer able to radiate these low-vibrating ethers, or when we have completely abused the physical body to exhaustion due to our constant reacting to the aeonic influences, we shrivel up, wither and die. We discard the physical body and take our remaining vehicles to the heaven-worlds, the reflection sphere. There we exist for a spell, slowly disgarding our remaining vehicles one by one, until finally the personality, the you-that-was, ceases to exist. All that remains is the microcosm and the karma that it has accumulated from past incarnations over the ages. This is the "second death" referred to in the New Testament.

At some future point in "time", that microcosm will be impelled by its karma to return to physical life. It will pick up fresh mental, astral, etheric and physical vehicles. It will be born into this world as a new personality. The "you", the personality that lived (was lived, rather) during the late 20th century is no more. This new personality, possessing no memeory of its previous lives, will take up the accumulated karma of its microcosm and begin serving yet another sentence of pain and suffering on the prison planet Earth.

How do we escape this Treadmill of Misery? This ever-turning, never-ending wheel of Death and Rebirth? Returning again and again to the physical plane only to provide sustenance and strength for our Jailers? People ask rhetorically, "what is the purpose of Life?". They ask this question never expecting to get an answer of any kind, let alone one that makes sense. In light of the foregoing, now pay heed to the following:

The purpose of every fallen personality is to escape the control of the rulers - the archons and aeons, to restore the fallen microscosm to its former divine stature and to escape the fallen realms (including the Wheel of Death and Rebirth) forever. That has always been the purpose, the Goal. However, over untold billions of incarnations, only a very few have yet been able to fulfill that purpose. How then, can it be done? What can one who is exhausted and through with duality do to make good their escape

First, we must get over ourselves. The current "you", - Mr. Smith, Mrs. Jones - is simply a temporary manifestation, a biological phenomenon. A mask, a role. We have to stop seeing ourselves as "I" and "me", as separated, individual consciousnesses. The current "you" does have a purpose, but that purpose is not "to be rich", to be famous", "to be happy", "to be me", etc.

Second, we must consider our plight, consider our lives, consider our destinies and consciously decide if we are going to choose to continue to be "lived" in this way, or will we call out for the thread of Salvation that is being offered to mankind at this time? Are we truly through with duality and all that it has to offer, both "good" and "bad"?

Third, we must make a fundamental reversal in our way of living. We must completely reverse the way we think, feel and act. We must practice a negation of desire, cease responding to the impulses that bombard us from minute to minute.

Fourth, we must call out to the Christine radiations and open our hearts to receive It. It is this Power, this Grace, that will do the work within you, the work of clearing out the Temple so that contact with the archons and aeons can be severed, to be replaced by a new contact to be made with a divine consciousness - Christ Consciousness. It is this infinite Light, this all-encompassing cosmic power that can deliver those who sincerely seek its healing. It is this cosmic power that is being offered to all of mankind as this critical major world cycle comes to a close. With The Harvest now imminent, you have before you a golden opportunity to be truly free. However, no one can (or will) force you to take the Outstretched Hand. The decision to take those first, firm steps towards Liberation is left up to each and every individual personality.

Just remember that for every step you take towards The Christ, He will take two steps towards you.

Get over yourself. See the bigger picture. Accept the Grace of an Age that is being offered during these final days. Seek to fulfill your true Purpose. Together, let us work to achieve the One Goal.

"For your conflict is not only with flesh and blood, but also with the angels, and with powers, with the rulers of this world of darkness, and with the evil spirits under the heavens" Ephesians 6:12

The New Kingdom - Conclusion

2011-09-01T16:00:00.001-04:00

[QUOTING]

Presently small glimpses of the approaching new reality may be had, as if through clear, bright windows or portals that occasionally appear. Those who are sensitive and intuitive are beginning to perceive with greater clarity and awe through the thinnest parts of the veil that surrounds the Earth plane, directly into the sphere of eternal Life itself. They are able to feel its holy breath, hear its call, respond to it and so prepare themselves for the greater Revelation and Grace to come. Such glimpses are generally brief and fleeting; most last only a few seconds or minutes of sudden epiphany; some may continue for hours, and in certain very special cases even days or weeks. Yet one single moment of that Grace from above is able to bestow such a profound blessing that all the concerns and tensions of this life are instantaneously dissolved, and so a glimpse is all that is required for the elated recipient to know and taste something of the coming glory and divine accomplishment. At such times one's faith and consecration may be strengthened a hundred-fold as one's life is positively transformed.

As the end of the cycle approaches, these glimpses will become more regular, tangible and real for a growing number of people, interspersed with stages of purification and integration. Gradually their duration will be extended, until finally the new world will become more real and true than the old, familiar world, which will be seen to be passing away. Perceptions will therefore be reversed, and it will be the old world that shall then be seen only in glimpses, as those who are able will cross over to the other side of the veil and emerge into the new and brighter reality. Ultimately, and should the natural process of cleansing and regeneration be allowed to complete its course, the renewed human race will find itself breathing and functioning from within the sphere of divine Light itself. It is at this time that those who have been blessed amongst mankind will come to fully know what it means to be in the world but not of the world, and will proceed to offer a hand up to all struggling life on Earth.

The effects that the dawning new reality will have on the manifest aspects of life on Earth will be dramatic, profoundly affecting all the kingdoms of this world, from the mineral right up to the human levels of consciousness. As the new and higher vibrational sphere penetrates the subtle planes of the planet it will purge the Earth of all unintegrated energies, thought forms and emotions. This process is already underway and is being experienced by many people as a kind of inner Armageddon, a growing tension between the incoming light of the new Kingdom of Souls and the outer material world.

This is also the time that planet Earth herself has long awaited: her birth into a higher expression of life, facilitated by the cosmic energies and forces released by way of the precise mathematical motion of the cosmic clockwork, the rotational procession of the sun, the planetary spheres and the zodiac. The Earth is soon to release all of the cumulative pressure that mankind has placed upon her over millennia of abuse and misuse of her resources for selfish ends. Soon all of her kingdoms will be restored to their former virginal state, the Edenic state of pristine wholeness and vibrant, health-promoting life. Once balance is restored to the Earth and so is brought back into harmony with cosmic law, it will again provide a stable and supportive matrix from which the new humanity can reach upwards towards greater light, access the higher spheres of life and so more readily attain the Goal of life. On the old Earth the door leading to the Divine has for ages been very obscured and closed to all but the most advanced souls due to mankind's widespread pollution of body, mind and soul, and the highly contagious atmosphere of selfishness, greed and fear that this has engendered worldwide. The New Earth, free of all grossness and impurity, will once more, like before, come into alignment with the divine Plan, functioning again as a graceful sphere for divine realisation; a world in which all inhabiting beings may pursue with greater ease the sole purpose of life via the process of holy Transfiguration.

The New Kingdom - Part I

2011-09-01T16:00:00.000-04:00

[QUOTING]

JUST BEHIND THE FACE OF THIS WORLD AND ITS HUMANITY awaits a new reality, a reality of untainted beauty and light. It has been given many names but is known equally by all who can feel and recognise its purity. It is the Promised Land descending from the heavenly realms, the long-promised return to Earth of the Kingdom of Souls.

This new sphere of life is presently still subtle in the world but will, over time, become more and more tangibly apparent to all who have prepared themselves to receive its light by co-vibrating with its purpose. It will become more and more visible to those who, through their selfless consecration and divine yearning, have cultivated the inner vision with which to perceive it.

The new reality is not of this world and so is completely unaffected and untouched by the sufferings, the pains and the struggles of earthly life. It contains no duality in which to swing back and forth in endless polarity. It is free from the extremes of light and dark, right and wrong, good and bad, and all the other pairs of opposites that perpetually toss mankind's consciousness from left to right, and which have for ages bound the mass of humanity to the pendulum of restlessness and suffering.

This approaching sphere of light possesses ethers that are clean and bright, new and vital. It is catalyzing on Earth a higher level of consciousness that vibrates closer to the Universal Harmony. Like a divine Sun its sacred nature is inherent within each and every outgoing energy-stream that radiates forth from its heart, blessing, purifying, unifying and vitalizing all beings, liberating mankind from the trammels and struggles of mundane existence in merciful benediction. As this divine Light returns to Earth, extending its grace to all as was long ago promised, it gently invites humanity to enter into its healing, protective sphere, embracing souls in its warmth and love before again leaving this world with them for Freedom's shores. This reality is today shimmering forth just beyond the clouds of Earthly perceptions and preoccupations, preparing to lift those who are able to receive it upwards into ever greater experience and realisation of the Truth, which it so perfectly embodies.

As time passes and man and his planet approach the end of an age, this approaching Light is progressively penetrating the densities of our world, irresistibly permeating even the grossest, darkest corners of the Earth. Moving from the inner planes outwards, the new Kingdom of Light dispels the shadows of this world. The radiance of the leading periphery of this divine sphere is presently only to be experienced within the upper regions of human awareness: some of the higher levels of being that inform and sustain this world and its humanity. Those whose focus is primarily upon the material plane and their own needs and problems do not possess the inner faculty required to perceive the growing presence of the new reality in its earlier stages of manifestation. It therefore remains invisible to the unaware, yet it is affecting all life on Earth.

For millennia visionaries and spiritually aware people have anticipated the arrival of this new and higher order of life, but it is only today in these times that it is slowly but surely making its presence felt. We are emerging from a great planetary cycle and entering a new era, and the complete renewal of this world and human race is imminent. A new world is being born on both inner and outer levels of the Earth, the planetary phoenix is rising from the ashes of the old world. The advent of the new world is now close enough for sensitive hearts to feel something of its reality and proximity, to hear its pure tones, to sense its sweet cadences. It is a whispering promise of Home, and from beyond the general human perception, behind the appearances and illusions of this world, it calls to all mankind.

Dry Run

2011-08-28T00:55:00.002-04:00

Have been evacuated due to flooding expected from Hurricane Irene. We were given about 12 hours notice.

Although leaving home is an inconvenience, this whole experience brings attention to the fact that we should always keep a bag packed, gas in the car and a destination in mind. The Earth Changes that are now taking place are only the beginning. It is entirely probable that things will get worse before they get better.

At some point in the not-so-distant future, we may be asked to leave everything behind. We may have to walk away from all that is familiar to us and not be allowed to look back. We have to be ready to do that when the time comes. It helps if we begin now to release our attachment to our possessions, our locations, our obligations, etc.

When the "evacuation notice" comes, there can be no hesitation.

Salvation

2011-08-18T15:06:00.002-04:00

When this blog started back in 2008, this writer was in a very different place. Earnest seeking had resulted in an overall comprehension of the situation confronting humanity at this period in our history and the idea was to try and relay what had been learned (up until that point) to whomever could be contacted.

That information was gleaned from many different sources, both terrestrial and extra-terrestrial. When major and minor cycles of human evolution come to a close, humanity is always offered assistance and warning. The assistance can come in various forms: telepathic communication, astral impression, terrestrial documentation. Some of this material can be very compelling. Some of it is junk. Then there is the minefield of information that originates from the reflection sphere (what man knows as "the great beyond"). Although entities there have a much wider access to information than humans in incarnation, that does not necessarily mean that they know what they are talking about. In addition, some of the inhabitants of the reflection sphere are decidedly self-focused or downright mischievous. In short, information received from the astral realms can be misconstrued or misleading.

The seeker has to tread carefully in order to separate what is real from what is not. One must learn how to feel the vibration of any communication in order to accurately gauge its trustworthiness. The process of learning how to do this takes time. It requires that one put aside one's own likes, dislikes, prejudices, etc. and try to objectively interpret what is being presented. It also helps if one's vibration is of as pure a quality as possible, as like tends to attract like. A low-vibrating individual has a much higher chance of attracting and/or resonating to low-vibration material than one who vibrates at a higher frequency.

So, what's the point of all this?

As previously stated, this blog began with a certain focus. That focus was primarily one of "something's about to happen, Earth is going to go through tribulations, but don't worry, extra-terrestrials are standing by to help evacuate us". This focus was an outgrowth of this writer's mindset at that time, which was acting upon the information currently available to him at that time.

Well, time passes. If one is a true seeker, one does not stop and set up shop at the first oasis one encounters. One stops, refreshes oneself, gets a bite to eat, something cool to drink and then moves on. There are other discoveries that await the Traveler, and he must continue the trek in order to meet up with them.

That is what has happened here. Originally, the idea driving this blog was that something outside of ourselves would be our salvation. As this writer continued his trek, it was discovered that this is not entirely true. Are there extra-terrestrial civilizations and federations closely monitoring the Earth at this time? Emphatically, yes. That is a cosmic fact. Will these "space brothers" be available to assist humanity when the Earth turns over on her side? Maybe. To what extent, this writer does not know. Many E.T. sources have promised "evacuation", and countless evacuation scenarios have been put forward. However, it is abundantly unwise for one to put all of one's eggs in the "E.T. basket", so to speak. When one depends on someone else to save them, one is acknowledging that one is helpless in a given situation.

Well, we are not helpless, simply ignorant. Salvation is available, but the source originates from within one's own self. The events that are set to take place are not simply physical events requiring physical re-locations. This is a massive spiritual event which will require major spiritual re-adjustments in order to survive it. We must change ourselves. We must undergo a transmutation of our desires in order to experience the spiritual/physical transfiguration that will allow groups of souls to ride out the coming tribulations with a minimum amount of, shall we say, discomfort.

The Aquarian energies, the radiations of Christ Consciousness which envelop this planet, are here to assist us in this process. We must first sincerely aspire to take the steps necessary. Then, we should welcome these energies into the heart chamber, in an effort to fan to life the smoldering ember of our divine spark. By our daily actions, we must keep this ember alive, allowing it to become a steady flame. We will thereby attract more and more of the radiating Christ energies and can begin our "walk in the desert". Some pain and much sacrifice will invariably follow. However, the rewards for those who persevere are far greater than can be currently imagined.

These ones take the matter of their salvation into their own hands and, by grace, carve a path through the woods of dark materialism.This path is for those who aspire to take advantage of the grace of an age and achieve the highest during the close of this major cycle. There are lesser paths available for those who are, for whatever reason, unable to as yet reach so high ("In My Father's house, there are many mansions...").

Lastly, the laggards and stragglers who are unable, or unwilling to take any steps at all will have to be prodded externally. This "prodding" will be provided by the physical and spiritual onslaught that will soon overtake the planet. As with any group, some need only a gentle nudge, while others require a foot in the behind. Even then, the hard fact remains that many souls will be lost, permanently erased from the Book of Life.

Don't wait for the kick in the patoot. Begin the work now. The journey towards liberation starts within.
