You Are What You Think, And So Is The World Around You

Man is a creative being. He creates via two centers of activity: the lower and the higher. The lower creative center lies in the area of the genitals and, via cooperation between the sexes, results in the generation of a physical human shell that will unite with a returning microcosm to introduce a new personality into the physical world.

The higher creative center lies in the head sanctuary. Here the Mind creates via thought. The offspring of our thoughts are manifested in the words that we speak and in our actions.

We are going to discuss the latter creative activity - thought - which man has not learned to properly utilize. Because man does not understand the power of his thoughts, he creates in ignorance and gives birth to horrible 'creatures'.

As you may know there are several grades, or planes, of astral matter that form the universe. This Primordial astral matter is divided into seven major Cosmic Planes. Those seven Cosmic Planes are further sub-divided into seven divisions, which are, in turn, sub-sub-divided into seven more divisions and so on. In this manner, a nearly infinite number of astral sub-divisions exist in this Dualistic universe.

We will restrict this post to the 7th Cosmic Plane, the 3rd-density, physical-etheric plane that we experience in. Within this physical plane, man has bodies corresponding to all seven astral sub-divisions but is only conscious of one, the physical body. He has very little knowledge of his etheric double (the vital body), almost no knowledge of his astral body (the desire body) and is completely unaware of his mental body. Man must learn to recognize and understand these "invisible" bodies if he is ever to recognize his True Purpose or to understand the forces that are arrayed against him.

All matter is astral matter. What distinguishes the different types of astral matter is the level of vibration. Higher, Spiritual matter vibrates at an incredibly high rate. As this astral substance drops in vibration, it becomes a little less subtle. At each step-down in vibration, a slightly coarser, slightly less-spiritual plane of astral matter is extruded. This cascade effect continues until it finally reaches a nadir, a place where the vibration of astral matter is so slow that this matter almost crystallizes. This crystallization results in what we call physical atoms.

As above, so below. Just as the astral matter of the individual planes and sub-planes changes as it drops in vibration, so does the astral matter in the human-being. When a man has a thought, that thought is a living thing. The thought projects into mental matter a vibration in line with the nature of the thought. This thought-vibration is instantly transferred to the astral material of the human and thus the desire body is conditioned in a manner that is compatible with the nature of the thought. There, man has his 'feeling' about the thought.

If the desire body contains any material that resonates with the vibration of the thought, comparable etheric material is extruded from the astral body and passed to the etheric body. Here, the hormones and the nervous system cooperate to put in motion the action or actions that will correspond with the original thought-feeling. Because the etheric body is the matrix that vitalizes the physical shell, the physical body is infused with the etheric distillation of the original thought-vibration created in the astral matter of the mental body.

So we have thought initiating desire, desire initiating activity, activity manifesting in the material of the physical body. This all happens in the space of a microsecond. You should understand that it is via this pathway that Thought moves and conditions the Physical Body.

The above is the most rudimentary and simplified outline of what is actually a vast subject. However, it is enough to give those with discernment something to pause and consider.

All physical illness is the direct result of consistent and habitual poor thinking. From the smallest pimple to the most devastating cancer, it is our Thinking that constitutes the root cause of all disease. From the least of our actions to the most significant, it is Thought that conceives and gives birth to the Act.

Abuse of the lower creative function manifesting as sexual indiscretion and promiscuity has led to disastrous results for mankind. Broken homes, dysfunctional childhoods and rampant sexually-transmitted diseases plague mankind. Abuse of the higher creative function via selfish and corrupt thinking has resulted in a world where control by The Few perpetuates war, poverty, famine and disease.

Thought is the horse that draws the cart. Everything within us and around us is a direct result of both our individual and collective thought processes. In order to change things we must break the habit of mechanically acting upon the thoughts that "pop into our heads", and learn to think consciously. We must re-direct our thoughts away from the selfish and the vengeful, to thoughts of unselfishness and Love for all, no matter who they may be. It is not the outer personality of an entity that matters, but the Soul-spark within that we must honor.

Think before you allow your thoughts to give birth to any act in this world. Do not continue to contribute to mankind's misery with your poor thinking. Purify your thinking and you will purify your mental body, your emotional body, your etheric body and the physical body. You will radiate a more purified aura and thereby benefit your fellow man and the earth. Oh, and one's personal health will benefit as well, for the low-vibrating viruses that cause disease cannot survive in an aura of high vibration. This all begins with the vigilant policing of our thoughts.

Learn to Think, truly.

If the One Infinite Creator, is Infinite, and has created everything that is (which It is, and It has), then does not the  Infinite Creator reside within all things?

The Gnosis And Your Way Of Life

[QUOTING]

What should we do to ensure that our pupilship will lead to more practical results, to Liberation, to the reality of Renewal? We should take into serious account the fact that our lives are so interwoven with society and the establishment that we cannot just withdraw from it.

The gnostic will have to take his place in social life. That goes without saying. However, it will be with the proviso that he is able to perform his work with complete integrity and honesty. An example may clarify this point. In modern business life we more often than not encounter all kinds of dishonest practices. You could probably tell some tales about this yourself. It is one of the primary causes of the decline of social life. Commerce start from a desire for possession, not so much the desire to possess what is useful and necessary for one's own life, as well as a desire which is exercised as a kind of sport.

So the Great Wound from which mankind is bleeding to death is the spirit of commerce, which is a spirit of evil. For what happens? The intellect is used to find markets, and when they have been found and businesses set up, then the markets must be kept open, whatever the cost. This even goes on at an international level, even if it would cost millions of lives. If anyone investigates the causes of many wars, or the origins of the First and Second World Wars, his heart will stop with terror. Businessmen* control the state, they control religion and philosophy. In short, they make sure that everything serves their own ends.

*This should more accurately read "International Bankers" ~ g

If you become involved in all that, you will not only be engaging in dishonest practices, but you will be corrupting the entire personality. If you have to think about how you can make a profit, and you are willing to employ unscrupulous practices to achieve this, the direction of your thoughts will have an immediate, detrimental effect on your astral vehicle. Your astral vehicle will be brought into harmony with your corrupt thoughts and desires, and this, in turn, will result in the attunement of your entire blood-state.

So you will understand that, if this kind of behavior is practiced, pupilship may well be possible in a philanthropical sense: you may be able to attend meetings and conferences, read a book and talk about the Gnosis, but what good will it do you? You must win Freedom! You must win the Fullness of Eternity! That is what the School is there for!

That is why you really need to consider your way of life. In situations like the one we have described, your pupilship may not be entirely useless, but it will never bring you Liberation. Anyone who, as a businessman, does not conduct himself in an absolutely honest and upright fashion, in keeping with the norms of the School, harms the Living Body and himself. If you are in business, if you have your own business, then see it in the same light as craftsmen saw their trade in former times. Do not conduct your business to become rich quickly, for then your Soul will suffer, particularly in a School like ours. And if you cannot escape this dilemma, choose another job.

We also feel that one should not accept posts in companies involved in any way in harming the world and mankind. Arms factories, for instance, would not be acceptable, and neither would laboratories involved in nuclear tests and similar things. In our opinion, posts in such places should not be accepted by pupils of the Spiritual School. Even simply writing a letter or holding a telephone conversation can, by its nature and by the kind of thoughts and feelings activated, damage the astral body very seriously indeed.

Be that as it may, every one of us needs to reflect on these things and arrive at a decision. This will be easy if the decision is made on the basis of the Living Soul-state. Your thoughts must be pure, your intellectual consciousness must be completely cleansed. If not, then you will be making your pupilship into an illusion. Parents should take care that the education their children receive serves to protect their receptivity to the merciful help of the Gnosis. It is important to preserve this receptivity from degeneration and harm, before it is too late.

For remember that ordinary life in society can become a deadly danger, particularly for those who strive for the Gnosis. That is why the modern Spiritual School and its pupils need to concern themselves with the problem of social functions, to protect the School and its pupils' lives from being made unnecessarily difficult.

In this connection, it would be good to draw your attention to the question of fear. Many people are living in fear; they are anxious about everything and more. They are afraid to break with what is immoral, afraid of situations which are not good, and fall below the norms they usually set themselves. In the light of the hermetic axiom: 'Receiving all things, Relinquishing all things, Renewing all things', such an attitude of fear is quite out-of-place. If one lives in accordance with one's principles, in harmony with one's Soul-power, in keeping with the requirements of the Liberating Life, there is no need to worry oneself about anything.

Fear is a delusion. If you stand in the Soul, not a hair on your head will be touched without the will of your heavenly Father. That is why the Sermon on the Mount commands: "Do not be anxious. Seek first the Kingdom of God within you and His Righteousness, and all other things will be added unto you". Anxiety, Worry and Fear seriously damage the astral vehicle and make it open to demons, so that one's pupilship becomes an illusion.

Another important point is conservatism, which is perhaps still present in you. You are unable or unwilling to let go of everything that does not serve the Great Aim. Conservatism takes different forms in different people. We only wish to say that detachment, which is so necessary, is not yet absolute in you. Your attachment to things, to matter, to money perhaps, to situations, to people, insofar as it exceeds the norms of the Gnosis, harms the astral body, with all the results of that. The astral body is very fiery and with that fire you can burn yourself and affect others too, with unholiness.

The thought-life of the candidate stands as a critical aspect in the process of Soul Rebirth. If our daily occupations require us to think in a way that ultimately results in harm to others, then we will not make much progress on the Path. All of us should take stock of what we do for a "living" to ensure that we are not involved in something that will ultimately hold us back on the Path of Return. A man who owns a liquor store may think that he harms no one, but nothing could be further from the truth. Bankers introduce and abstract artificial stress into the world through their usurious practices (i.e., the charging of interest). Untold damage has been done to humanity via the stranglehold that international banking holds upon all aspects of human existence.

Whatever occupation you may find yourself in, try to conduct yourself as the Gnosis dictates:

Do no harm.

The Gnosis In The Present-Day

[QUOTING]

In former times groups were very isolated. They had no access to modern means of communication, or to present-day methods of gaining publicity. Thus, their material radius of action was very narrow. So one cannot help but express amazement that the Bogomils, for instance, were able to influence the whole of the Balkans in their time, and even large areas of Russia, and that for a long time the Cathars were the leading group in almost the whole South of France, where their influence surpassed that of the official church. It is also quite astonishing to know how, later on, the idea and the mission of the Rosicrucians spread like lightening over the whole of Europe , even though at the time the journey from Calw to Haarlem, for instance, seemed like a world tour. How was it possible for the message of the Rosycross to travel to the north so quickly in those days, and to be answered equally rapidly?

We would like to try to answer this question, and to show how it was possible, without any of the means of publicity or communication available to us nowadays, for the Gnosis to begin its work practically simultaneously all around the Mediterranean, and for it to spread like rays in all directions. Such a development would not be possible nowadays.

Well, the ancient brotherhoods followed a certain strategy. Certain individual participants in the Great Work possessed higher faculties, and a number of these travelled to areas where the Work had to be established, in accordance with specific plans. All the brothers and sisters responsible for leading the Work possessed higher faculties. Wherever they found themselves, they were able to remain in telepathic, intuitive contact with each other. In addition, they were able to take up Soul-contact with each other during the hours of sleep. In this way, a splendid coordination of the entire Work was ensured in advance.

Further, it is interesting to note that the racial body of the man of the masses was, in those days, not nearly as dense or crystallized as it is now. Also, people lived then in the peace and quietness of medieval times. Nowadays, we can hardly imagine such conditions. The people of that period were still open, because the cognitive faculty, the intellectual brain-consciousness, had not yet become defiled. Also, the astral sphere had not yet become as dark as it is now. And when the persecutions came, by the State in alliance with the church, and by the church in alliance with the State, many were able to slip through the nets and continue to work in various other ways. So there has never been one day or one hour in the course of history when the Holy Work has been interrupted.

We are saying all this to show you that the hermetic Way of Life can be conducted without many disturbances. To the extent that the group of pupils of the young Gnosis makes progress in the manifestation of salvation, it will be possible to discuss all  this in greater detail. The group will always be able to carry out the Work, under all circumstances and without attracting undue attention. So the question now is: how can we, in these modern times, adapt our way of life so that it complies with the minimum requirements, whilst taking all circumstances in consideration? This question raises the problem of a New Way of Life to which the group will have to become accustomed to in the coming years. We need to reflect on the underlying principle of this future Way of Life, through which our group will need to proceed until the Glorious End is reached, taking into consideration all the current conditions, all the aspects of our modern times, without becoming absorbed by the nature-of-death.

Sons Of The Fire

[QUOTING]

An explanation is necessary to show how Souls originate, a somewhat doctrinal, scholastic explanation, but you will be able to follow if you keep in mind the facts you already know.

A Soul is really nothing else than a microcosm. As you know, the Gnosis teaches that the Rose of the Heart is the Soul-nucleus, the central point of the microcosm. The Rose of the Heart is not some mysterious physical organ, but the mathematical center of the microcosmic sphere. Around this center, around this Soul-nucleus, is a field of manifestation, an open space which in turn is enveloped by the sevenfold auric being.

Take an atom for instance.* Every atom contains a nucleus around which various electrons orbit, like planets around a sun.

*As Above, So Below

Similarly, the microcosmic Atom, too, has a nucleus with a radiation-field, a field of manifestation around which seven 'microcosmic planets' rotate -- the sevenfold auric being. And the personality develops in the open space, the radiation-field around the nucleus of the microcosmic Atom. The nucleus, or Soul, of the microcosm then associates itself with the heart of the personality. In this way, one can also speak of the Soul of the personality, or the Soul which is in the blood, for the radiative power not only develops in the heart but is also manifested in the blood.

All this has often given rise to confusion. An ensouling power is indeed present in our personality. However, it emanates from the nucleus of the microcosm. Hereditary factors, too, play their part in the blood and endocrine system, and all the karma that has been stored up in the microcosm comes to us from the sevenfold auric being.

So the question we now need to answer is: How does a microcosm come into being? Where does it originate?

The microcosm originates from the Fundamental Nature. As we have seen, the Divine Nature comprises a twofold current, a stream of being and will, of desiring and activity. This stream is not God, but it originates from God.

This twofold, omnipresent, all-encompassing stream of the Fundamental Nature is a mighty, very fiery astral field which fills the entire All. A human-being creates his own astral body by means of his mental activity. When you produce thought-images, these cause certain astral activities to develop in your body. This enkindling then gives rise to a sparking in the astral body, with all the result of the retrograde movement.

So perhaps you will be able to understand how the Divine Cognition, which is exterior to the Fundamental Nature, irradiates the mighty astral field of the Fundamental Nature with Its thoughts. In this way, astral sparks, astral flames come into being in the Fundamental Nature . In this way, too, life-waves come into existence; they are awakened and brought into manifestation by the Divine Cognition. That is why microcosms are also called Spirit-sparks or Divine Sparks.

So a microcosm is an astral spark originating from the Fundamental Nature. All of us are therefore linked in the closest possible way with the Fundamental Nature. A microcosm, a Spirit-spark, bears Its characteristics, because that is where the Spark has originated.

Ethers are liberated with the Spark through the desiring and willing of the mother-field, for behind the Spark is the impulsion of the Divine Thought by which the mother-field is enkindled. A life-wave bursts into the All-Manifestation as if in an explosion of astral fire, and every Spark of that fire is irradiated with the Divine Thought. The ethers generated by the Sparks concentrate around the nucleus of the microcosmic Atom, the Rose, the Soul of the microcosm.

In the midst of this concentration of ethers a form-manifestation arises, a system of lines of force which model themselves into the human form. Through this process the Divine Thought is manifested around The Rose. In this way, the etheric cloud molds itself into a reflection of the Fundamental Idea present in the mother-field. Thus the true, Original Soul-man, in whom the Soul or nucleus of the mother-field is reflected, appears in a glorified etheric form.

Since this process develops in harmonious cohesion with the Spark-igniting Divine Thought, the Divine Thought is also connected with the Soul-nucleus and the being of etheric-physical substance. Thus we see how, in the pre-human being a complete unity exists between Spirit and Soul. On the basis of this state, the living, Adamitic Soul can progress to ever higher good and ultimately become a life-giving Spirit.

We hope that all of this will have given you some idea of how the microcosm comes into existence and how a human being is formed from such a microcosm, by a quite different process of birth and maintenance.

It will now be easy to imagine how much this glorious, Divine process has been disturbed with respect to nature-born man. For his personality has to be born by means of the earthly process of propagation and brought into connection with an emptied, powerless microcosm. By means of this emergency-order system we know so well, an attempt must be made to restore the former existence, at least for some time, during which the Original etheric-physical form of the Soul-man is subjected to many crystallization processes. The Soul-man, together with the microcosm surrounding him, then constitute nothing more than a faint glimmer of the Original intention of the Logos. Hence, the cry, "Return, O Sons of the Fire!".

Are you not a Child of the Fire? Is the Original, Divine Spark not active in you? Return the, O Sons of the Fire! And make full use of your time!

[END QUOTING]

The Original Man was a self-creating entity. Sexual intercourse was not required in order to generate a new personality. Doing so was simply a matter of Will, exercised in cooperation with the Divine Plan of the Logos. This self-created Divine Personality was of a glorified nature, blessed with powers and attributes beyond the imagination of most. It stood high and above the common personality we see around us today.

This is what was lost, many millions of years ago. This is what those of us who diligently walk the Path of Return today are striving to regain.

Randoms On Thought

All truth passes through three stages:    First, it is ridiculed;    Second, it is violently opposed; and    Third, it is accepted as self-evident.

-- Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

“Great men are they who see that spiritual is stronger than any material force, that thoughts rule the world.” Emerson

“Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being. They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness, and of their soul’s resources in general, much like a man who, out of his whole bodily organism, should get into a habit of using and moving only his little finger. Great emergencies and crisis show us how much greater our vital resources are than we had supposed.” -- William James

“Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day.” -- Thomas Jefferson
  
“Everything is energy and that's all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.” - D. Anka

“Alpha waves in the human brain are between 6 and 8 hertz. The wave frequency of the human cavity resonates between 6 and 8 hertz. All biological systems operate in the same frequency range. The human brain's alpha waves function in this range and the electrical resonance of the earth is between 6 and 8 hertz. Thus, our entire biological system – the brain and the earth itself – work on the same frequencies. If we can control that resonate system electronically, we can directly control the entire mental system of humankind.” -- Nikola Tesla

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought.” -- The Buddha

“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a show that never leaves.” -- The Buddha

Break-In

[QUOTING]

Before we can deal with the central issue of our discussions, we must emphasize that the problem of the New Way of Life only applies to those who are Soul-born and who, with a pure heart, have established the link between the new Soul-forces and the intellectual brain consciousness, and in this way are in control of it. Without this control it is not yet possible to strive for astral purity and it will not be possible for the pupil to withdraw from evil and follow the Only Good. The circulation of gnostic Light-forces in the candidate's system must first be ensured. That is the central issue of every truly gnostic development.

The foundation must be a life of earnest striving and yearning for liberation. When we become genuinely seeking people , our thoughts result in an astral activity. It is impossible to yearn for the Gnosis without a corresponding effect on your thoughts. If a genuinely seeking longing is present in you, the resulting mental activity will in turn give rise to an astral activity in your system, which will be manifested outwardly as well as inwardly. When a New Power has been ignited in the astral field of the human system, a light is produced which radiates inwards as well as outwards. In the midst of the microcosm a fiery tension develops, a light-field in keeping with the desires of the pupil , this light-field extracts and assimilates gnostic light-power.

So if a pupil perseveres in his yearning and striving, in spite of all the unavoidable hindrances, the concentrated light-power will touch the center of the heart sanctuary; it will break through into the heart sanctuary and mingle with the blood. The blood, now charged in this way, then flows through the brain and influences various centers in the head sanctuary, including a number of latent ones. What matters now is whether the brain system with its various centers will be able to react to this intervention, to the gnostic influences introduced into it by the blood. If it can, then a new kind of thinking will come into being in the head sanctuary. This new development of the intellectual brain consciousness will in turn influence the astral body.

This is how the astral body is purified. You can only purify the astral body through a new thinking born of the blood. Then, new astral forces are liberated, which then differentiate into the four pure ethers, the four holy foods. These ethers affect the etheric body and go out to all the organs and fluids in the physical body that make us  live and act, until finally, they are manifested once more in the blood.

That is how the circulation comes about. The process begins in the blood, is manifested in the mentality, then in the astral body, then in the etheric body, and then again in the physical sheath and in the blood. Thus, as a result of this new ensoulment, the Gnosis gains control over the pupil's entire system. If this tenfold process has been brought about by a way of life orientated towards it, it will be possible to maintain this way of life without the need to force anything. When the circulation of gnostic light-forces, which the ancient Chinese Gnosis called 'the retrograde movement', has been born in the system, you will have not the slightest difficulty in preserving the gnostic Way of Life.

From "The Circulation of Gnostic Light-Forces" - The Egyptian Arch-Gnosis, Vol III - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

Once a candidate begins to sincerely and consistently seeks liberation from matter, he or she will attract gnostic light-forces. Not the false light-power of the aeons, which are of this world, but the divine light-power that originates in the Sixth Cosmic Domain.

The reason for this is simple. Like attracts like. Thoughts of escaping this nature-order are diametrically-opposed to the thoughts one has if one is thoroughly content with this nature-order.  Thoughts of liberation from matter vibrate differently than those of the common nature-born person. They act as a beacon, seeking a like vibration, which can be found in the divine light-forces of The Sixth.

The Gnosis, this Divine vibration, then "breaks into the system" as it were. It enters via the heart sanctuary and instantly begins to infuse the blood with its electromagnetic power. We know that all blood passes through the heart on its way to different regions of the body. Thus it stands to reason that the blood will carry this New Vibration throughout the human system, starting with the head sanctuary.

Nature-born man is completely subservient to the aeonic forces that control the physical realm. As such, the microcosm, which is a magnetic system, will only attract those impressions that agree with this nature-order. In order to attract the Light-force that will be needed to purify the microcosm and enable the birth of the New Soul, the candidate must change his or her thinking and begin longing for that which is not-of-this-world. If one can persevere in developing this yearning, it is a cosmic fact that one will attract the forces of the Gnosis into the system and partake of the benefits derived therefrom.

A warning to those who dare. You must be sincere. God will not be mocked. To accept the Gnosis without the intent to do all that is necessary to advance on the Path and complete The Great Work may result in a burning of the astral vehicle. One must sincerely count the cost before taking that first step on the Path. The question to be asked: "am I prepared to leave everything of this nature-order behind, both good and bad, and not turn back, for any reason?".

If the answer to that question is a firm 'yes', then you are ready.

This is a follow-up to a prior post "Vibration and Transfiguration", 5 December 2013.

“Everything is energy and that's all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.” - D. Anka

[QUOTING]

The new astral field of the Spiritual School is a concentration-field of astral substance, in which vibrations are maintained, of which the lowest limit exceeds 800 trillion hertz per second, whereas the shortest wavelength is about 375 nanometers. If you reduce the wavelengths and increase the frequency you can form an idea as to the Cosmic Domains that surpass the Sixth. At a given moment, time also ceases to exist in these domains and a new situation develops which can be approached by the idea Eternity.

Still, this astral field of the Living Body shows activities through which it apparently endangers itself from time to time. You will understand this by thinking of a flame which, for some reason or another, burns lower and shows periodically a reduction in light. A gnostic astral field intentionally brings about a reduced vibration, that is, a reduced wavelength of its radiation, according to certain laws of periodicity, because of which the boundaries of the Seventh Cosmic Domain will eagerly make use of the removal of those barriers in order to enter the Sixth Cosmic Domain.

In this way a situation arises as outlined in The Alchemical Wedding of Christian Rosycross. If we compare the new vibration-field with an initiation temple which, of course, it is, then, as a result of the reduced vibration, a number of unauthorized persons also enter the Sanctuary. They are inclined to force themselves to the front. Then "the weighing of the candidates" takes place; to put it another way, the vibrations of the temple-field are brought back to their previous intensity. The vibration-level rises again and whoever cannot bear this Light-force is proved "too light' and must leave the Sanctuary.

All these fluctuations in the vibrations of the New Astral Field are to enable those who are worthy of it to enter the holy halls of Renovation. This is why the Bible reveals the fact that the Lord of Life comes to meet the pilgrim. Do not think of a venerable figure who meets a poor, tired pilgrim on his way but of a reduction of Light-vibration which will envelop the person concerned and draw him up into the New Life Field.

When we speak of the astral field of the Living Body of the young Gnosis, we mean that for everyone who is sincerely seeking Liberation, once again a place is prepared that is adapted to us and our epoch. Once again a consoling, helping Radiation emanates from the immaterial temple of the Gnosis. It enables you to exist in two worlds when you possess the New Soul. You exist by virtue of your natural birth in the Seventh Cosmic Domain and by virtue of your new Soul birth, at least during sleep, in the initiation temple of Christian Rosycross, the astral field of the Living Body of the Gnosis.

You can compare all this with inhalation and exhalation. From the new, gnostic initiation temple an astral radiation, a sanctifying power-giving impulse is sent out daily. Whoever reacts positively and co-operates with it in faithful, daily ministration is, as soon as he falls asleep, carried along by the inhalation into the gnostic astral temple. He experiences the blessing of Awakening, laden with Pure Force, to progress on the Path. In this way the link between the Soul and the gnostic astral field becomes ever more powerful, until it approaches the unbreakable and continues during the day-life of the candidate. Being non-resident in the Seventh Cosmic Domain he has become, at the same time, resident in the Sixth. He has now gone beyond the borders of death. Whatever can happen to him now?

The death of the material vehicle is no longer an emptying of the microcosm but only a liberation from the natural, whereas The Essential remains imperishable. That is why the death of nature no longer brings separation in these circumstances. The sadness and emptiness that accompany dualistic death disappear.

From "The Reality of Liberation" - The Egyptian Arch-Gnosis, Vol. 1 - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

Between the Sixth Cosmic Doman (the Divine Kingdom) and the Seventh Cosmic Domain (the Physical World) there is a realm that bridges the gap in vibration between the two. This "bridge" is temporary and only appears in our cosmos at certain specific periods of times. The current age is such a time.

Operating within this gap are those of the Universal Gnostic Chain whose job it is to "ferry travelers across the river Styx," as it were. It is "the place prepared" that the Christ spoke of to His disciples. It is a Field of Life where the tremendously high vibrations of the Sixth Cosmic Domain are "stepped down" to a level that a person in the lower Seventh Cosmic Domain can match...if or when he or she is successful in reaching a high enough level of vibration.

The region acts in a manner similar to an airlock, which allows transition between two different pressure environments or atmospheres. As mentioned above, this "bridge" is only in place for a set period of time. When it withdraws from the border of the Seventh Domain and returns to the Sixth, it will carry along all those Seekers who have managed to maintain or match the special "stepped-down" vibration. This is how the transfer is effected. And now you have the true interpretation of the symbolism behind the story of Noah's "Ark".

Please note this is not a physical phenomena. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. This is a Soul event, or, to be more specific, a New Soul event. We must work in the here and now to raise our soul-vibration to that special minimum level of Divinity. To do that we must diminish our attachment and attraction to the things of this world and aim our hearts in the direction of the Divine Kingdom, the Sixth Cosmic Domain.

Den Of Thieves

[QUOTING]

In the Gnosis the heart is called 'the Sanctuary of Love'. But because of all kinds of karmic influences, which have been active since the moment of our birth and which inevitably define our way of life throughout the years, the heart of natural man is no longer a Sanctuary of Love. There is not one particle of real Love to be found in his heart; it is a den of criminals, a pit of pestilence.

When in ancient times the heart was called 'the Sanctuary of Love', it referred to a heart that was prepared for a Life-force, a possibility of life that can rightly bear the name of Love. Everything that is lower than the high standard of Love is a state of desire, of I-centrality. At first, the yearning for salvation is also a demand for the self. The 'I' is in a tight corner and now it seeks a way out. 'I' seek 'my' salvation. The Gnosis, in its imperishable Love, touches us in an endeavor to help us, because we are such desperately poor wretches.

The Love that is worthy of the name is not to be found in the essence of dialectics. It is of a higher order; it belongs to the New True Life. It is Spirit, it is God. This is the test: what will be present in your heart sanctuary in the future -- desire or Love? 'Direct your heart upon the Light and know It'.

When the Light makes its abode in the heart sanctuary, your desire-nature must disappear. Then egocentricity, that urge of the 'I' must be completely extinguished.

We must realize that the heart sanctuary is the basis for the Spirit; the Spirit will have to live there and, consequently, the heart sanctuary will have to be completely prepared in all its aspects for this high state. 'Life is where the heart is' says Pymander.

When the heart is prepared for its duty, we will see in the Spirit-Soul the beautiful, Original human figure, the archetype of our human existence, the Original Principle from before the Beginning-Without-End.

Dialectical man has made a cavern of desire out of his heart; do see this very clearly. Within him roars the fire of the passions of the 'I', while in fact the heart is destined to offer a habitation to the Spirit, to the God in us, who is potentially present in the Divine proto-atom. Do you understand how intensely ill we are? How extraordinarily deep we have sunk? The heart sanctuary, the Temple for the God in us, has become a den of criminals.

From "Pymander and Hermes" - The Egyptian Arch-Gnosis, Vol II - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

The entire process of transfiguration begins with the heart. The yearning, the first touch of the Gnosis, the opening of the Rosebud, the channeling of the purified blood-state. Yet man, in his sorrowful ignorance, abuses this oh-so-important organ by forcing it to host impure desires and coarse lower emotions. Is it any wonder that so many humans die of heart failure?

What was meant to be a pure temple, a sanctuary for the Spirit has been overrun by 'thieves'. Perhaps now you can understand the true meaning behind the story that had Jesus throwing the money-changers out of the temple (Matt. 21:12-13). They had desecrated the Father' House. We do exactly the same thing when we do not use the heart for its intended purpose.

When you purify your thinking, you purify the heart. All sincere pupils should be constantly at work performing this necessary activity.

Get busy. Clean house.

Yearning For Salvation

[QUOTING]

Man has four vehicles: the material body, its etheric double, the desire body and the thinking faculty. The etheric body builds and maintains the material body; the desire body defines the inclinations, the type, the character, the ability of the man -- in short, his essential nature.

The desire body surrounds and penetrates us from every angle and the astral fluids enter our material system by means of the liver. So the liver is more especially the focus of the desire body, as it has developed since birth. The head and the heart of natural man are slaves of the desire body. Your feelings and your thinking as a person of this nature are regulated by your pelvic sanctuary. Consequently, you live out of your pelvic sanctuary, through your spleen-liver system, bound to matter, desiring and focused upon everything that is of ordinary nature. All astral radiations enter the liver in accordance with the activities of your desire nature.

When, after endless roaming on the dreary Road of Experience, a human-being reaches a dead-end in nature-bound life, it can happen that he begins to desire renewal, to yearn for a liberating solution; that in such a man something like a yearning for salvation develops, an urge to seize one or another approach to salvation -- to realize it within himself, that he might climb up out of the pit of mortification. This state of searching for renewal, this increasingly conscious state of yearning for salvation is the highest form of desire of which nature-born man is capable. You cannot reach higher.  This is the highest state, the limit of dialectical astral radiation. When we stand at this border, the Gnosis touches us; not in the liver, but in the heart.

The first touch of the Gnosis always takes place in the heart sanctuary; however, that occurs only in answer to one's yearning for salvation. Therefore it is out of the question that anyone who would approach the Temples of the gnostic Spiritual School simply experimentally or out of curiosity would benefit in any way. It is beneficial to be in a gnostic focus only when the heart has opened somewhat for the Gnosis, yet only as a result of that highest state of desire, the yearning for salvation.

From "Pymander and Hermes" - The Egyptian Arch-Gnosis, Vol II - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

Like attracts like. The heart is the seat of desire. What we desire we attract to us. That is a natural response to a natural law.

In order to attract the radiations of the Gnosis, we must yearn for the New Life with everything that is within us. We must obtain the highest state of desire mentioned in the excerpt above, the desire to put down the things of this world and return to whence we came. If we can do this honestly and in deep humility, the law will fulfill itself and we will attract into our heart the astral radiations of another realm, the 6th cosmic domain, which will awaken the Divine Atom from its eons-long sleep.

This power will not force itself upon you. It must be asked for, sought after, desired with everything that is within you. Your actions must support that desire. It is truly a yearning like no other.

Failure

Dedicated to those on The Path ~ g

"Recognize failure -- if it is there -- but then, with a face lifted to the Light and a smile upon your lips, turn your back upon such failure and go with steadfastness forward".

"The only regret that is justifiable is based on failure to learn the lesson of failure".

"Failures, where they may be found, need not persist, for the Group Love  can offset them all; personality weaknesses, mistakes and faults are overlooked and forgotten in the urgency of human need; they do not even penetrate into the Ashram. I would ask you to remember this, and with humility in your hearts, persistence in your efforts, and love to all men, pass on your way".

"You will note that the Brotherhood is not preoccupied with your mistakes or failures. These are inevitable and relatively unimportant, because a disciple at your point of development is ever aware of them, and can be trusted to take the needed steps towards adjustment".

"You did fail, my brother. But why stay overwhelmed by failure for year after year and remain with your eyes concentrated on the Lower Self that failed? All have failed and will again along some line. But the failure is scarce recognized; the effort is made to recognize what caused the failure".

"One thought only will I give you to repeat whenever you are discouraged, tired or weak:

 

At the center of all Love I stand, and naught can touch me here, and from that center I shall go forth to Love and Serve."

From the chapter on "Failure" - Serving Humanity  - Alice Bailey

As we endeavor to walk The Path of Return in self-surrender and in a new attitude of life, Failure is inevitable. Do not get down on yourself or treat yourself harshly. Seek always to uncover the root cause of the failure, then put it behind you and continue working to overcome the weakness that led to the failure.

It is not the failure that will define your pupilship; it is how you utilize the lesson presented by that failure which will make all the difference.

all love,

Keeper of the Temple

[QUOTING]

We who have put ourselves into the service of the great Divine Plan of development, must seek, find and go our own Path. In a state-of-the-world that has become totally foreign to us and with an open eye for the dangers threatening and misleading us, we are going to speak to you about the great plan of development, this Plan of God, which lies at the foundation of our existence.

The whole personality with everything belonging to it and included in it, in a word, our microcosm, is in fact a dual being. One being has been manifested: the nature-born, mortal being. The Other Being has not been manifested yet.

You must understand this well! Many organs of the Unborn are present in your nature-born being, i.e., in a dense material state. And this is an absolute prerequisite for accomplishing the Great Work, because a person must realize this Work from below-upwards. To this end he needs physical organs in order to perform non-physical work.

This is a delicate situation, for if the organs concerned were to be applied exclusively to material purposes, everything would go awry and the development of your being as meant in God's Plan would be stopped completely and your Calling would be obstructed. From the above it will have become clear that such abuse would cause processes of degeneration. This is what the Bible means by saying 'To be in the world, but not of the world'.

The heart belongs to the organs mentioned, at least a certain part of the heart sanctuary. In addition the head sanctuary is included, of which especially the mind, the pituitary gland, the pineal gland and the cerebral cortex should be mentioned. Also other secondary organs should be mentioned, like the other endocrine glands and the cerebellum.

All these organs have a dual purpose: in the fallen world, but at the same time in the Other Nature-Order that has already been referred to as the Supernature, the Divine Kingdom. Supernature, the Other Nature-Order, will be manifested by a correct use of the organs mentioned. Then these organs attract very subtle substances of an as yet unknown atomic structure that enter into different latent centers of your being and make their intentions known there.

In this way a New Being begins to grow and develop within you with the help of the old being. And gradually, the New Being is revealed and makes Itself felt, although in a totally different way from what you are used to in your nature-born life. It is so totally different that it cannot be compared to anything.

This development wholly corresponds to the one described in the Bible. For instance, think of the First Letter to the Corinthians:

'Each man's work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss. Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?'

In the days the above words were written down, the Truth was still known, namely that both life and death exist in our microcosm. Death not in the sense of useless and superfluous, but as finite: the finite that is used to build the Infinite.

A striking example of what we mean to tell you can be found in our rational thinking. Rational thinking is a finite faculty, but it can be considered and used as the final goal of everything. It is called the 'I am', the spirit, the soul and it is burdened with as many speculations, assumptions, unwanted extras as possible and with everything called 'knowledge'.

As soon as this pernicious development has crossed a certain border, a degeneration of the cerebral cortex, among other things, can be observed and the person concerned becomes unsuitable for the ordained human development. As a result, the Great Work that must be performed in the temple can no longer be fulfilled. The storms become ever fiercer and damage becomes manifest. Therefore, reflect on the warning meant for all:

If anyone destroys God's temple
God will destroy him.
For God's temple is holy
And that temple you are!

From "Supernature" The Liberating Path Jan van Rijckenborgh, Catharose De Petri

[END QUOTING]

The physical body has a purpose. That purpose has nothing to do with seeing how much alcohol it can consume, discovering what effects narcotics will have upon it, or abusing the sex function until critical vital energy has been completely wasted.

As stated in the above excerpt, the physical body was designed in accordance with a Plan, its organs intended to serve a dual function. We know only of the physical work that these organs perform, yet next to nothing about what they were actually designed to do or their role in the process of transfiguration. Be mindful that it is extremely important that the body be maintained in as pure a state as possible, if we are to improve our chances of climbing the Golden Stair to Freedom.

Living Two Lives

[QUOTING]

So a mighty development of the soul-aspect is underway in our School. Pupils have an unmistakable, intense inner need to participate in the spiritual work and most spare no effort to do so. All this is wonderful and we feel deeply grateful, because it proves that virtually all stand in the awakening Life of the Soul. 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 the personality, they are still entirely driven by earthly desires.

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; 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 it -- you live two lives.

This threatens to lead to your downfall. Although you may love the Spiritual School ever so much, although you may never miss a single conference, 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 decidedly. 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 your 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 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.

From "The Formula of the Path of Life" The Egyptian Arch-Gnosis Vol. III - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

Until your way of life is entirely in harmony with the requirements of The Path, you will be susceptible to this conflict. You must maintain a constant vigil over your thoughts, feelings and actions. Occasions will arise when you will not be able to stop yourself in time before acting against the Gnosis. But with steadfastness, devotion to The Goal and perseverance, eventually you will be able to consistently choose the Right Thought, the Right Feeling and the Right Action for any circumstance. It will become a part of you. When that happens, you will have successfully adopted a New Attitude of Life, the 'old you' will have disintegrated into nothingness. Your feet will be firmly planted on the Road to Liberation.

Life-Spark vs. Spirit-Spark (Re-post)

Originally posted July 10, 2012 ~ g

 

In order to effect Transfiguration, the great transformation of matter, the human entity must have in its possession a Spirit-spark atom. This spirit-nucleus, referred to as the 'Rose of the Heart' or 'the Jewel in the Lotus' is a remnant of the Original divine heritage of our microcosm. It is the only part of the human entity that is divine.

The spirit-spark atom is located in the mathematical center of the microcosm, which corresponds physically to the upper right ventricle of the human heart. This single atom is "the God in you". In the vast number of human entities, this atom lies dormant, asleep. It is a smoldering ember of divinity, unable to express itself due to lack of divine nourishment.

A small segment of humanity has been able to awaken this spirit-spark atom. Some have preceded us on The Path in the centuries that lie behind us. Some are endeavoring to walk The Path here and now, in the current age. All of this is possible because these entities are in possession of a spirit-spark atom. Through insight, yearning and a new attitude of life, they were able to attain, or will someday be successful in completing, The Great Aim, the One Goal of Humanity - Transfiguration.

There is also a third category of human entities, ones who do not possess this spark at all. We call these beings "life-spark" entities because there is nothing of the Spirit burning in the center of their microcosms. Here is a definition, given by Jan van Rijckenborgh:

"Life-spark entities: Nature-born entities lacking the rose of the heart, the spirit-spark atom. These persons are totally oriented towards existence in the material-sphere of the earth. They feel completely at home in it and lack any inner life. They are, in fact, not people, but solely natural phenomena, absolutely insusceptible to spiritual contact.

A way of life, deviating from God, inevitably generates life-spark entities. which come and go without leaving behind any positive effects. Present-day mankind consists of many hundreds of millions of this kind of 'simulated' human being."

If you contemplate this for a bit, you may be able to come up with some examples of this type of human. The realms of the rich and famous are bulging with these types. So-called 'stars' and 'celebrities' as well as the criminal element among mankind. Last, but certainly not least, the the leadership of the churches and the statehouses are filled to capacity with these 'empty', spiritually-bereft humanoids.

Contemplate the reality of the foregoing a bit further and you may begin to obtain a glimmer of understanding as to why the world is in the condition that it is. The so-called 'leaders' of humanity, along with it's 'movers-and-shakers' are all bent on material wealth, material success and personal aggrandizement. And so you have immoral and perverted entertainments, eternal war, dishonest business and financial practices, class and racial separations, deceptive religions designed to lead human entities further away from the Truth, and from Liberation.

Some classic examples of current life-spark entities: the Queen of England, Henry Kissinger, Bushes 1 and 2, the Pope, the heads of major Hollywood studios and publishers of 'respected' newspapers, famous movie, television and music industry artists...all dead. Dead inside. Like robotoids.  They're easy to spot. They are the ones who pursue their 'dreams' of material wealth, power, fame and influence at all costs. They are totally and completely wrapped up in, dedicated to making the best of, and desirous of getting the most out of this material-sphere life. To sum it up, the physical rulers, controllers and influencers of the earth are chosen from among these types of entities. They, in turn, are controlled by the archons and the aeons. They govern our planet in all of its various aspects, un-opposed by the rest of humanity, due to our ignorance regarding their true nature. And so, we have the world that we have.

You may silently wonder if you are a life-spark entity. A clear indication that this is probably not the case is that life-spark entities don't ask questions like that. In truth, they don't even care. They don't read blogs like this and they don't waste their time thinking about a Higher Life, or the possibility of one.

Therefore, it's pretty safe to assume that you possess a Spirit-spark atom, a mandatory requirement for commencing The Great Work. This hidden Jewel is the part of God that Adamitic humanity retained before falling from Paradise. Our microcosms still possess the One Thing Necessary to help us to Return.

Let us now work hard to fan this burning ember into a Mighty Flame so that we may begin our journey Home.

Hollow Earth, Open Mind

 

This post was originally meant to be a response in the Comments section of The Scales Shall Be Balanced, The Debt Will Be Paid but grew too long to fit within the character limit set for comments. The decision was made to post it here.

~ g 

The theory of the Earth being hollow has been advanced and supported by great (and open-minded) thinkers for many centuries. It is not a "new" theory. Edmond Halley in 1692 put forth the idea of Earth consisting of a hollow shell with a crust about 500 miles thick. Like everything else that threatens to enlighten humanity about ourselves and our True Purpose, these theories are suppressed, ridiculed or mostly ignored.

The fact that this "theory" reamins on the fringes of mainstream scientific discussion is proof that there is something about this can of worms that your controllers do not even want to open up for discussion (see "Where Is The Love" for a post regarding one such massive deception).

This writer is not a mainstream scientist. Thank heavens for that because most scientists simply parrot everything they have been taught, and tailor their investigations to fit within the confines of their restrictive and erroneous teachings. All else is discarded. Scientists are among the most pathologically close-minded and rigid thinkers in the world. As our "authorities" they pass this rigid dogma onto humanity, thus closing the minds of millions as well. That is how it was planned.

Though we may not be earth-scientists with a bunch of meaningless and useless letters following our names, we are blessed with plenty of Intuition. Most humans can tell when something is being hidden from them and when they have been sold a bill of goods.

As 'm stated, this writer does not indulge in fancy or wistfulness. An effort is made to avoid advancing speculative information at all costs, as it is not the intent of this blog to mislead anyone at anytime. In addition, when it comes to speculation about matters on the horizontal plane that have been hidden from us for so long, although it is good to be aware of these things, such knowledge will ultimately not lead anyone to Liberation.

That being said, if something 'odd' is mentioned here, you can be sure that a significant amount of prior research went into the matter way before this blog ever came into existence. Many years were spent by this writer seeking on the horizontal plane prior to taking 'pen in hand' as it were...much was uncovered. There are things that will never be posted here because they would just not be believed. It would serve no good purpose. Occasionally, such unmaskings may end up being discussed in this blog. Hollow earth is one such example.

Think of all the so-called "science exploration" shows presented to humanity. Not one has ever been presented that discusses this theory. Not one! That is because your controllers do not want to expose this suppressed but compelling "theory" to free minds the world over. Hundreds of millions will then begin to conduct their own investigations, brilliant minds will be scattered among them. In no time at all the genie will be out of the bottle and your controllers will be unable to prevent a total unmasking of a fact they have worked diligently to hide for so long.

Therefore, your mass-communications media, which is completely controlled by the vassals of the aeons of this world, will never allow free discussion of this topic or any other that threatens the vice-grip they have around the minds of collective humanity. It will remain on the fringes of academic and scientific thought, which leaves it up to you to investigate and unmask on your own, with mind wide open.

The following is quoted from a comment posted in the link provided at the end of this post.

[QUOTING]

This Awareness indicates even though you have been taught that the earth has a molten core, with a cool surface, that it is possible to logically conceive of an earth that as a spinning ball of molten lava, began to cool on the outer crust, and that as it spun in space, because the outer crust was cool, it perhaps stretched to create breaks in the surface which then led to more cooling, and while these breaks in the surface were occurring from the centrifugal force of the spinning earth, in the center of the earth there was an expansion of space of this molten lava, which created a hollow cavern in the center that followed the surface outward as it spun against the outer shell that had cooled, plastering the inner lava up against the outer shell that becomes solid as it cools, thus creating a HOLLOW EARTH over millions or billions of years.

This essentially has been the subject of a number of books, and legends and stories down through history, and it is actual. In general, all planets have a hollow core, some having a larger opening and core than others and some planets have subterranean caverns permeating the area beneath the surface. It is not possible for this to be proven at this time, but there has been considerable evidence from entities who have traveled beyond the poles to find themselves entering into a world of green vegetation.

What is really necessary is the general understanding and recognition that there are many things on earth that will always remain as a mystery and that entities need to keep their minds open and not assume that just because the government has not told you so, it must be so. Likewise, there are those who think if it isn’t in the Bible, it can’t be so, or if it IS in the Bible, it has to be so. Entities who look to authority for answers may be fooled by authorities who do not really know or do not care to give proper answers.

It doesn’t matter whether you can be absolutely certain of all of the things you explore. What matters is that you have information that you can ponder and consider in filling in the blanks of your reality. With this approach you may consider the possibility of a HOLLOW EARTH. You do not have to tell others you believe in a HOLLOW EARTH. You can simply put it in as a possibility in the puzzle that you are exploring in regard to total reality.

Letting Go Of Delusion

[QUOTING]

Thus the True Seeker of the Path of Liberation perceives in what a horrid world-order he lives, and how, merely through the functions of his being, he is an accessory to the general world-tragedy. He is convinced that he exists and participates with his whole microcosm in an un-divine world-order. Therefore, his whole heart thirsts for God, for an absolute divine reality, by which he knows himself to be called. Thus the pupil becomes more and more conscious of his wretched dialectical reality.

Whoever does not yet possess this self- and world-perceiving consciousness, will continue to try and obtain fulfillment of his wishes on the horizontal line. He will continue his strivings for earthly pleasures and pursue what is known as: 'the best gifts of the earth'. He will exult in supposed 'possessions' and feel deeply hurt when they vanish like a mirage. This pursuit and disappointment will come and go many times, they will keep the person extremely busy for many years, perhaps for many lives, until, due to persisting painful experiences, the reality of the true insight into nature finally dawns on his consciousness.

Then the Seeker experiences the truth of the words of Proverbs: 'All is vanity and vexation of spirit'. Everything here is deception, a phantom, absolute delusion. Moreover, all this brings and constitutes immeasurable pain and indescribable tragedy. Therefore, he stops all his strivings on the horizontal line, as well as regards thinking, feeling, wanting and acting, and lifts his eyes to the hills, from whence his Help comes.

As long as you still seek for life realization in this nature, as long as you pursue civil, social, political or humanistic aspiration in this nature-order, you do not as yet share this point-of-view. You cannot be forced to this point-of-view, nor can you elevate yourself to it by decision. You must grow towards it, mature towards it by experience.

From "The Delusion of Dialectics" The Coming New Man - Jan van Rijckenborgh

[END QUOTING]

Man is like the child who is kidnapped at birth and made to live a horrid life of toil and strife. Each day brings a crust of bread for breakfast and a bowl of gruel for dinner. Mistreated and abused from infancy through childhood, sorrow is all that he knows.

Then one day someone bursts through the door, knocks out the kidnapper and reaches a hand towards the child, saying, "Come with me. You're free!". But the child screams in fear. He throws sharp objects at his rescuer. He flees to the darkest corner of the room and hides himself there. He does not want to be rescued. Why?

Because the life he is living is the only life he knows.

When this writer first encountered the Doctrine of Liberation and the Path of Return, there was simultaneously both an attraction and some trepidation. Not fear, but a hesitancy. Deep within, there was a reluctance to leave this world behind, even though it had offered mostly kicks and pricks throughout the years.

How was this hesitation overcome? This writer kept exploring the philosophy of the Universal Doctrine, kept reading the available literature detailing everything that a candidate needed to know to begin walking the Path, persisted in unmasking the rulers of this nature-order and their games. In short, this writer gained valuable insight. Remembrance was stirred.

Finally, there came a time when the doubts receded, then completely disappeared. Confidence and a grateful joy took its place. It was at that moment that this writer made the decision to surrender the self, adopt a new attitude of life and walk the Path of the True Way, the path leading back to the Divine Reality.

Once one knows where one is going, one is no longer afraid to leave all behind.

The Scales Shall Be Balanced, The Debt Will Be Paid

A short story that illustrates the interwoven nature of karma, destiny and rebirth ~ g

When the left wing of the chemical plant in M. blew up, Margaret was sitting at her desk. It felt like an earthquake. She saw the huge flames erupting like a volcano, engulfing the cisterns and everything around. There was immediate panic. People were screaming and running about in mayhem. Then a new loud detonation concussed the entire area. Margaret was thrown into the air. Sharp pain sliced through her body...

She saw a tunnel and she made her way through it. As she advanced the light at the end grew stronger and brighter. At last she was in the open. It was bright. Millions of little twinkling lights glittered in the air. There were lovely colors, flowing colors, many of which she had never seen before. She felt light as a feather. As she looked around she saw thousands of people floating in the air like herself. She knew them. They all worked in the plant.

Below saw the plant, consumed by raging gigantic flames. Thick smoke billowed into the sky.

“What happened?” asked a secretary in horror, passing by in the air.

“I am not sure, ”Margaret replied. “It looks like an accident.” As she viewed the scene, panic grabbed at her heart.

She saw fire engines approaching from all sides. People were running about in every direction. Chaos reigned.

Margaret remembered her children with a constricting chill. She flew as fast as she could to the school where she had left them that morning. They were sitting calmly, doing their lessons, unaware of the disaster that had just occurred. Soon the bell rang and they ran out into the school yard. She followed and called them, but they paid her no attention. They were busy with their friends. She hovers over them for a while.

“My husband!” she thought suddenly, and rushed toward his workplace. She saw him driving his car in the nearby street, heading towards the plant. She passed through the windshield, sat on the front seat, and began talking to him:

“Its okay dear. You won’t find me there. I am here—sitting next to you.”

But his face remained worried, pale, and nervous. He was listening to the radio that was giving non-stop reports on the inferno. “It looks like there are no survivors...estimated number of deaths about 5000...” The voice of the announcer bordered on hysteria. The announcer’s voice was broken. Overcome by emotion he unable to continue.Then her husband broke into tears.

“So that is what happened,” Margaret thinks. “I am dead...”

By evening the President had appeared on TV and declared the event an act of sabotage perpetrated by a separatist group known as the “Movement for Liberation,” comprised of the Fenkushy people, which had been responsible for many other terrorist attacks, though none approached this magnitude.

Calls for war were heard from many respectable citizens. “We have to revenge the death of those innocent people,” urged the Secretary of State with strong conviction....

Despite her state of near panic, Margaret was fascinated by her ability to fly, to defy gravity. It was a new sensation. And she found she could be anywhere almost instantly simply by thinking herself there. Her colleagues also flew around. Some exchanged words, but most of them were distraught and disoriented.

“Why don’t they hear us?...Can’t they see us?”

After a while a procession of fair Beings on what appeared to be ethereal chariots appeared from on high. Everything around them shone in strong light. In front of the first chariot stood a youth with a trumpet who began to play a solemn fanfare. The chariots encircled the distracted people from the plant. The Being from the first chariot, embellished with golden ornaments, rose to address them:

“Brothers and Sisters, welcome to the Beyond. We have come to take you to our Ceremonial Field. Please, follow us.”

His chariot took the lead, the people from the plant following. Some gathered in groups, holding hands, afraid of what they couldn’t understand. The most adventurous were in the front rank. Some of them attempted to converse with the leaders. The procession passed through the clouds and rose further and further. Everywhere there was a lovely play of glittering lights and colors flowing in myriad directions.

After a while they came to a great vistas of gardens planted with thousands of beautiful, vividly-colored flowers. Their many scents were delightful and invigorating. Strangely, they had faces, kind and smiling. Stranger yet, all the flowers could talk.

“Welcome, dear brothers”...“Welcome”... “Welcome, ” was heard from all directions.

When all the people had arrived, they were seated on comfortable and ornate chairs with arm, head and foot supports. The chairs were in a clearing facing a huge stage. An upright gigantic Book with a golden glittering cover occupied most of the stage. Its upper margin was lost in the sky. Margaret heard whispering: The Records of Nature...

Again the boy who sounded the fanfare appeared and played a ceremonial passage.

Then the leader of the procession came to the front. He was an old man with a wise face. His robe seemed to be woven with living light, adding to the brightness of his person. He solemnly declared:

“Let the reading begin.”

The Book opens slowly to the accompaniment of deeply affecting music. An enormous panoramic screen appears before the gathered people. The wispy glistening clouds of Time descend from everywhere. The people are transported on a fast journey through Time, back through the centuries. Among the roiling clouds the contours of a fortress gradually begin to appear—nebulous at first, then more and more clearly. Its stone walls are strong and high. There are guards on every post. The interior contains a city with prospering features. There are beautiful houses, estates, and government buildings. There are four grand gates on each side of the city. It is a warm summer night and most of the people are asleep. Only a few are wandering in the streets. They are wearing light clothes and robes. The sky is clear and the stars are twinkling, though their light is beginning to fade. The year is 978.

The city is under siege. Around the fortress there is a huge camp of enemy soldiers—about 5000.Most of them are sleeping around fires that have been reduced to glowing embers.

Somehow Margaret identifies herself with one of the soldiers. He is awake, thinking about the coming battle. A huge blanket covers his friend and him. He is not afraid. He has been through so many battles.

“That’s me!”—her colleague from the plant, sitting on her right, exclaims.

“There I am!”—Margaret hears from the left.

“That’s me!”...“That’s me!” in chorus people shout from everywhere. Soon everybody from the plant recognizes his former self among the soldiers.

Suddenly a signal is given. The soldiers awake and soon they are ready for the forthcoming attack. In the receding dark the first faint signs of the breaking light are visible on the eastern horizon.
Traitors are opening the gate on the North side of the fortress. What happens next is hard to bear. Brutal killing, horror, screams of terrified people fill the entire area. Pools of blood, bodies of soldiers, maimed and mutilated women and children everywhere.

Margaret sees herself killing people... So do her viewing companions. A few hours later when the fortress is taken, there is silence—only terrified cats and dogs are running around, until they too are killed.

The soldiers gathering in the center begin a frenzied celebration....

The clouds slowly gather over the scene and engulf the ruins of the fortress, the victims, and the conquerors. When they disappear, the Giant Book also is nowhere to be seen.

Grave silence falls on the people of the plant. Now they know that they are not innocent. They understand why they died in the inferno. All of them were involved in the killing centuries ago, all of them are now together in death. For a brief moment they saw the faces of the people of the “Movement for Liberation.” They were the same people who were in the fortress, who were killed by the soldiers, by Margaret and her associates in their earlier life. The situation is now reversed—but in another era, in another land. The victims had become the executioners.

No one is able to say a word. No one can look in the face of the others. They stand accused. They are dumbfounded. They all sit in silence, for hours, brooding over the event, all to themselves.

—Marcia Malinova-Anthony

It has been said that "The wheels of Karma may grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine". If a person goes through life thinking that his actions, the causes that he puts in motion, 'do not matter', that person is dead wrong. Everything you do today will return to you tomorrow, no matter how many lives it may take for that "tomorrow" to come.

Please, live consciously.

Cosmocreators

The Unknowable, Ineffable All creates but It also delegates the task of Creation to its creatures (see God, Inc.)

Logos: A Logos is the center of a system of creation. Its will is in harmony with The All and it faithfully carries out the Divine Plan of Evolution. There are Planetary, Solar, Galactic and Universal Logoi. There are probably ones that extend beyond those descriptions. A Solar Logos may have one or more planets subject to It. Most of the stars that one can see in the night sky are Solar Logoi. This means that they have at least one planet with sentient life orbiting it. That life may not be visible to the physical eye because that life may be manifesting in a different realm, or density, of matter (i.e., etheric, astral, etc.).

Cosmocreaters: These are beings who have the knowledge and ability to create life-forms. The ancient language refers to these beings as Elohim. These beings work in service of the Logos and create according to the requirements of the Divine Plan of Evolution. A sample of their work can be examined in a symbolic and summarized form in The Book of Genesis, where each of the Seven 'Days' actually encompasses many billions of years.

The following verses are excerpted from Genesis to illustrate two things:

1. how cunning is the work of those who secretly conspired to mutilate the Holy Language
2. how the defilement is so subtle as to go virtually unnoticed

In Genesis, Chapter 1, God creates the heavens, the earth, all creatures, then Man. Not the human image-bearer of today, but the true Original Divine Man.

"Let us make man in our own image, after our likeness - Gen 1:26".

The use of the plurals "us" and "our" is proof that, although in modern Bibles the singular spelling of 'God' is used in this verse, the original plural meaning still remains from the Hebrew translation, which used the word 'Elohim' instead. "In our image and likeness" indicates that the Divine Elohim created beings that were also Divine in nature.

The very next verse reads: "So God created man in his own image, male and female he created them Gen 1:27" Here, the translators return to the use of the 'God' in the singular but that is not what is important. What's important is the segment that states, "male and female he created them". This statement has been taken to mean that The All created men and women as separate beings. This is not the true case. It means that Original Man was created to include both polarities, male (positive) and female (negative). The result was a hermaphroditic, self-creating Divine being, one that did not require sexual intercourse with a mate of opposite polarity to re-generate. Again, clever sentence construction and the lack of true teachers to interpret the Holy Language has resulted in very serious errors in understanding.

Now for the final major deception embedded in the Book of Genesis. This writer refers to it as "the Second Creation" because in Genesis, Chapter 2, after the Elohim had completed the Seven 'Days' of Creation in Chapter 1, some other 'God' comes along and creates another heaven-earth along with a natural, aeonic race of men:

"And the Lord God formed Adam out of the soil of the earth and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being Gen 2:7".

What?

Wait a minute. We just saw that the Elohim, in service of the Divine Plan of Evolution, had already created the hermaphroditic, self-creating, Divine, Original Man. Now we are presented with the exploits of a "Lord God". Please note: the creative entity in Genesis Chapter 2 is not the same as the entity in Genesis Chapter 1.

So, who is this "Lord God" and what did he create? Genesis Chapter 2 chronicles the creation of an un-divine human being, earthly man. A being created not in the pure, Divine image of the Elohim but from the clay of the earth and the "breath of life" (the vital prana obtained from the Sun and retained in the etheric double). This "Lord God" appears to be some other Cosmocreator (often referred to as "the demiurge") and this chapter records the creation of the physical human being as well as the separation of the sexes.

Biblical references aside, it must be made clear that the physical universe, the 7th Cosmic Domain, was intended to be a laboratory of sorts, a field of creation where Higher Beings, in service of the Divine Plan of Evolution, would work to create assorted life-forms in relative freedom and autonomy. These higher beings, these Cosmocreators, were to work with the substance of the material world while at the same time keeping themselves separate and apart from it. Think of it as standing over a large pool of water where you are allowed to put your hands in up to the elbow and build whatever you want under the water, but are forbidden to enter the pool itself.

Unfortunately, something happened during this process of Divine creation. Some of the Cosmocreators voluntarily entered the 'pool' in order to become one with their creations. Because of the strong magnetic pull of duality they were subsequently unable to extricate themselves and became trapped. This is what has been referred to since ancient times as 'the Fall of Man'. It is Original Man that is referred to here. A second group of their brothers, in an act of supreme mercy, followed shortly thereafter in order to do what was necessary to rescue them. This effort is referred to as the Divine Plan of Salvation of which the Universal Doctrines of Transfiguration and the Path of Return are significant components.

In closing, one should recognize that there are entities in this universe capable of creating human life-forms. This is a Divine responsibility entrusted to those who are linked with The All although there are entities who have managed to appropriate some of this knowledge in order to misuse it for their own selfish purposes.
