THE HIDDEN LIGHTHOUSE



In the old days of sailing, sailors when lost at sea

Relied on the Lighthouse to find their way




A wise Sailor when lost at sea knew to look for the lighthouse, so that he could navigate to his port of destination. Likewise a wise man seeking truth and knowledge needs a lighthouse in which to navigate through lives waters so that he may arrive at his port of destination and unlock the mysteries shrouded in darkness that illuminate the soul. It is my sincere hope that this book be your lighthouse so that you may arrive at your port of call that Shangri-La of ports (truth and Knowledge).



Know the truth and the truth shall set you free. Free from all forms of spiritual bondage so that you may walk on the path to the valley of the wise men before you and that you may find riches in abundance.

PREFACE


Your beliefs create your reality, you are what you think about the most. You are today what you thought about yesterday. And you will become tomorrow what you think about today. For mind is all there is, and thought creates the manifestation of thought. This book will teach you how and why you have to change your destructive thinking into successful thinking.





Because within yourself lies the cause of whatever enters into your life. T come into a full realization of your own awakened powers, is to be able to condition your subconscious mind in the exact accord you would have it, so that you will have riches in abundance, and find success in this life now.




This book is not one of those get rich quick books. No! this book gives you the secrets that all great men have used, whether they were aware of it or not, to gain success, riches and prestige. One can not work a simple algebra problem without first knowing the formula. Once the formula is known one can work algebra all day long.




Likewise there are formulas for success and gaining wealth and happiness. It is these formulas and laws that once mastered, will bring the fruits of the world into your hands. Nothing will be impossible. Read this book carefully and reread it again until you grasp the laws and how they work. Then follow the guidelines for success and you will have it.





Thomas Edison with as little as three months of schooling was one of the most successful men of all time, Nicola Tesla, Gugliemo Marconi, Charles Schwab, Henry Rogers, John D. Rockefeller, Michael Pupin, Christopher Columbus, George peabody, John Hays Hammond, Charles Goodyear, Andrew Carniege, Alexander Grahm Bell, Henry Ford, Ross Perot, Donald Trump, Kenny Trout, and many more lesser known people from all walks of life. What did these men have that you dont, what did they know, or do that made them great?



They used their minds, they believed in themselves, they had imagination, drive and fortitude. They had faith and belief in themselves, and something else which you are about to learn about in this book. The one most important thing, that without it none of these men could have been successful.





We do not want to erect a new temple of knowledge, but place in the hands of the people a master key with which he may open the many inner doors to the temple of mystery through the main portals he has already entered. From lip to ear, from mind to parchment, the truth has been handed down among the few. And now you will hear it, understand it, and use it for your own good and your fellow man.





This is not just another book on how to achieve success, but a book about universal laws, Wisdom and knowledge, a book outlining the whole scheme of things, to give you an Eagles view of a sort, a complete book on what everything is and how it works. In this book you will find a mixture of philosophy, religion, mystical things and laws. A complete book that will warm your heart and full fill your quest for truth, and give you a piece of mind.





No book on success can be said to be complete without the Universal Laws, which are referred to as the Secret Laws of Success. Without the working knowledge of these laws you will be like the squirrel running inside one of those wheels, going ever so fast and nowhere until it gets tired, taking a rest and going right back to it round and round going no where.




With the working knowledge of these laws you won't be like the squirrel, instead you will be like an Eagle, soaring in the skies riding those thermals without ever having to flap it's wings but ever so often just to keep momentum.



Controlling your destiny, you alone have the power, you are an eagle maybe you only think you're a turkey, lift up your heads and behold you are liberated from false doctrine, deceit, lies and darkness, there's a new day and its called light.




We wish to present truth, for truth is the only vehicle that will carry us to our destination, it is our ship to carry us safely through the Sea of uncertainty to the shore of Wisdom and Knowledge.




It is said that those who seek knowledge shall find it. "Seek and ye shall find" said the master teacher. Consider that this book is in your hands, it is the result of your seeking higher knowledge, the result of your seeking answers, the result of your wanting to be successful.





Every word and phrase in this book even when lightly turned, is uttered in utmost seriousness. There are no metaphysical fantasies but facts in this treatise. Fantastic as many of the facts presented, facts they are, proven by the acid tests of time and modern science.




To prove something scientifically, one must perform a set number of controlled experiments and record the outcome, if the outcome is the same every time it is said to be scientifically proven.






It has been known since the days of the Atlanteans that there were Laws that govern the Universe, just like the laws of your Country, State, or Province that you live in, Laws that govern the stars and planets, the galaxies and solar systems, Laws that govern everything in existence.




It is these laws we wish to give light to. We will remove the veil of ignorance, lift the veil of Isis, unmask the chattering monkey, remove the mask of Maya (illusion), and expose truth, out in the open for all to see, revealed at last, the burden lifted, all else is but dross.




Gulielmo Marconi, Alexis Carrel and many other scientists and religious leaders, claim that minds draw thoughts and happenings to themselves from a general flow of intelligence, a stream of consciousness around us.




The great inventor of wireless trelegraphy, Marconi, told radio commentator John B. Kennedy who broadcast it, "every word ever uttered is still in existence and could be recovered if only we knew how to tune in to get it." The great religions teach that there is guidance from God for those attuned to His will by devoutness and prayer.





Dr. George W. Crile, former head of the Cleveland clinic, published in 1926 a book titled" A Theory of Living Processes," announced that after 20 years of research that every cell of all living tissue, animal and vegetable, bears a charge of positive electricity on its nucleus and a charge of negative electricity on the enveloping protoplasm. Thus there is created a continuos voltaic cell discharge of electricity in the body.




Recently atoms were thought to be a reality of matter, all solid and gaseous substances, so small they could not be seen or weighed or smelled or touched. Seemingly indestructible. After further analyzing by scientists we are now told they are not indestructible at after all, but are positive and negative forces called protons and electrons.




Without hardness or density, without solidity or even positive actuality. In fact they are vortices in whirling bits of energy-dynamic, and never static, pulsating with life, but life is spiritual! As one eminent British scientist put it. It appears that everything including wood, stone, iron and earth are but swirling bits of electrical energy.








Early in the 1940s the United States Coast and Geodetic survey published extended data on a celestial rain of simple negative electrons-not any so called "cosmic rays" this time-observed to be hitting the earth at the rate of one and a half million per square centimeter per second.




That's the equivalent of one and a half million electrons hitting your fingernail every second, indoors and out, day and night. This dense flow constitutes as a prime element for the possibilities of transmission of electrical effects.





It bears bringing up here that all matter, inorganic as well as organic, manifests a radiation frequency in resonance with its character. This fantastic fact has been indisputably established for at least 75 years. Early papers on it were read to the Royal Society in London.





We shall prove the theory of the Electrical universe in this book, and our relationship with the Creator and the Universal Laws governing all, and how you can use this knowledge to have what ever you want in life. Health and Happiness. You will learn the truth and the truth will set you free, from the bondage of false doctrine and deceit Success is a science.







This book reveals some great secrets that only a few know or ever will know. You are free to believe or disbelieve parts of this text, but let each of you realize that your personal conclusion in no way alters THE FACT OF THEIR REALITY.




Let this book be your navigational charts shoeing you that one great Lighthouse. Truth and Knowledge.


Happy Sailing

Secret of the Ages: Robert Collier


1

THE ELECTRICAL UNIVERSE



If you were asked what was the greatest discovery of all time, would you say, the atom, the great Pyramids of Egypt, the Mitchell Hedges crystal scull, Crop Circles, Flight, Radio, super conductors? No-its in the air as the French say.



Because the greatest discovery of all time is some Life Force that permeates the Universe, surrounds all and encompasses all. None of the above would have ever been a physical reality had it not been for this Life Force we wouldn't even be here if it did not exist.




Every one has a part of this great life force endowed with infinite intelligence, and resources; this power can be called at will; all one has to do is to come into harmony with it through your subconscious mind and get from it anything you need or want success, health and happiness.





Where did this life force come from and how long has it been here? Who cares and what does it matter, what does matter is that there is this vital life force animating all nature, plants, animals and man.



This life force is evident at every turn. All of the millions of forms and shapes of plants and animals that you see are but varying manifestations of this life force.




If in the beginning there was only some bacteria that formed and this was the starting point or if you hold that we were created from the mind of the creator, some life force has helped everything to survive, earthquakes, floods, extreme cold and heat, volcanic eruptions and drought.





Yet this bacteria took different forms and showed unlimited resources for its survival. To protect itself from cold it grew fur, to escape the dangers of the oceans it made way to land, pursued on land it grew wings and took to the air, stranded on land it grew lungs, forced to stay at sea it developed gills, for protection it grew a shell and developed poisons.




It changed colors to camouflage itself from predators, it took the forms of its surroundings to fool other prey, it has survived if it were possible to kill this first seed or germ it would have died ages ago.





Wherever this first life came from, it sure came endowed with some unlimited resource and energy and an undaunting will to survive. A power or force that can not be defeated, no obstacle can hold it back. This life force, call it God, Infinite intelligence, Universal Mind, Nature, call it what you will-it rises to meet every need of life.





This vital force expresses itself in all of nature, after working in the garden all day a blister forms and your hands are tender, then an extra layer of skin is added for toughness, we call them callouses, to meet your every need.



The vasometers of the body, your heart beat, respiration and all your vital organs are busy doing their jobs every waking moment of your life, without your having to give it so much as a thought. What manner of intelligence is responsible for this. This vital force is ready to meet your EVERY need, if you call upon it to do so.




A man walks down a busy city street, falls and breaks his leg, he is then taken to a hospital where doctors set his broken bone in place, and apply a cast, but what causes it to heal what causes the bones to grow back together, what intelligence does this?




Not long ago scientists used to believe that matter was everything, and that all chemical chains were but variations of combined matter. Today though, there is a very different explanation of matter, that matter is not at all, it doesn't exist, science has now shown conclusively that every kind of atom is composed of particles, or bits of swirling electrical energy, called protons and electrons.





It is the number of these protons and electrons and the rate of their vibration that determines if it will be iron, wood, stone, gold, and so forth. These weightless, intangible, unseeable bits of energy are so small that one electron as compared to an atom itself would be like comparing a grain of sand on a beach here on earth to the sun, with the same amount of distance between both.



Collier: Secret of the ages









Where do protons and electrons come from which are the building blocks of all atoms, and all physical reality that we know of? Scientists haven't a clue. Where does all the electricity in the Universe come from? And the seemingly free and abundant magnetism, ever present through the Universe, what is it?




How did it come about? These questions and many more will be answered , in the following pages of his book. The whereabouts that this ever abundant life force is known to a few, and you are about to be another added to the few who already know where and what this great source if energy is.





You will become acquainted with this life force, and learn how to harmonize with it, so that you may harness it's power in your daily life and claim all life's riches, health, success, money or whatever you want.




There is no lack under the command of this force, there is no sickness or poverty under the command of this force, there is only abundance, only health, only prosperity, only good, because it is good, and only good can come from good. Life can only come from life. Life begets life and death begets death. This is only one of many great truths we will learn about.




"I alone can do nothing, but the father within does all" Jesus Christ



II

THE LAW OF MENTALSIM




From the teachings of hermetic philosophy, of Hermes we learn the (principle of mentalism) he said the Universe is Mental or that ALL is Mental. Call it infinite Intelligence, Universal Intelligence, God, Life Force, Universal Mind, it matters not what you call it, but we shall try and prove the existence of this Intelligence or Life Force, with clues given us by hermetic teachings, Buddhism, Taoism and Christianity. The Hermetists state that (so below-so above), Jesus said (it is done on earth as it is in heaven). Buddhism states that all is God, and so is with the teachings of Toaism.




Consider that Jesus also said ( we live, move and have our being in him), in what? in HIM, in this life force or God. This statement CLEARLY states that the very air we breathe and live in is God. Consider the fact that man can create nothing without first thinking about it or holding a mental image or picture of the idea in his mind, he has first thought about it.




Everything you see about you was hidden in the recesses of someone's mind. Nothing can exist with out having a first cause, which is thought. Thought is the first cause of all that exists and all that you see about you, is this not true?




If we apply the Law from the ancient teachings that states so below-so above, we can deduce from this that all we see, the Universe, galaxies, stars, planets, the earth, plants, animals and humans, that some higher source call it God, Universal Mind, Intelligence, this power created the Universe with mental action.





There had to be a first cause or thought behind the creation, we already know man can not create with out first having thought, we have also been told through the ancient teachings so below so above and it is done on earth as it is in heaven!




Any one can come to the conclusion that all, everything was created with mental action. There's no escaping this very fact, this should be proof enough that there's some intelligence greater than ourselves that created everything, call it what you will. It's only logical to see this as a truth.




We also know that everything is first worked out in the unseen before it is manifested in the seen, in ideal before it is realized in the real, in the spiritual before it shows forth in the material. The realm of the unseen is the realm of the cause and the realm of the seen is the realm of the effect.




The nature of the effect is always determined and conditioned by the nature of the cause. To point the great facts in condition with the great laws underlying the workings of the interior, spiritual, thought forces, to point them out so clearly that even a child can understand is the authors aim. Nothing can exist without a first cause is the one great LAW, nothing can manifest into the realm of the physical without thought as a first cause "so below, so above".





The Universal Intelligence has many names; THE ALL, GOD, THE INFINATE LIVING MIND, UNIVERSAL MIND, PRANA, KI, CHI, ORGONE ENERGY, THE FORCE, and many more. It is after much study and thought, that this intelligence that we call the ALL, GOD etc, is a pure form of electromagnetic energy, which is photons.





The bible says god is light, and light is photon. It is not absurd to think that this is what God is, God is mind, God is everywhere (in him we live move and have our being), this mind or sea of protons and electrons and photons we live in is the mind of God, it is energy and we say it is infinite living mind, at the same time acknowledging that we can not fully understand it.




We must do this or stop thinking of the matter at all. We have uncovered the first of the Hermetic laws. This is the LAW OF CORRESPONDENCE. "So below, so above)." This great law which embodies the truth that there is always a correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of being and life.





The mastering of this principle gives one the means to solve many a dark paradox and hidden secrets of nature. This law is of Universal application and is an Universal law. This law will allow one to tear away the veil of the unknown. It was used to tear away the veil of ISIS so that a glimpse of the face of the goddess might be caught.






So we may say that there is a Universal intelligence that is the cause of everything; it is first cause, it is God. This Universal Intelligence finds its way through everything that lives.




This is the meaning of that mystical saying: "In him we live, move and have our being."(ACTS 17:28). The life we live is the Universal Life expressing itself through us, so we may say that we an extension of that intelligence. We are from this thing that is why we are called the "Sons of God."





This Intelligence is power, it is Law, and it is life, it runs through us, and around us and perhaps hidden because of our ignorance of the truth. And since this Intelligence is perfect and absolute it plays no favorites, it is because of mans misuse of this power that has brought upon the earth all the conditions in which we suffer. The great teacher Jesus said "it is done to you as you believe."








There is no question as to whether or not there is a sea of electrons enveloping the earth and that magnetism is ever present throughout the Universe. And that thought waves are electrical, with a certain variable rate and frequency. And that all life forms as well as stone, wood, and iron are electrical. Electromagnetism is a fact of life in our Universe.




This book and others by Dr. Crile, Dr. Jenkins and many more describe yet another source of electrical charge (polarity) within our bodies. This magnetic resonance is responsible for the movement of blood through your arteries, and the regulation of your heartbeat, without polarity there would be no movement, no LIFE forms, nothing.




(the lips of wisdom are sealed, except to the ears of understanding)




(the universe is mental; the kybalion)




III

THE MAGNETIC UNIVERSE


Dr. Crile, of the Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Bernard Jensen an specialist in reading the iris and others have stated that there is a polarity or magnetic resonance in all living things (animate forms).






Metaphysics tells us that there is magnetism throughout the Universe, and that even iron, stone, wood and water have magnetic resonance. Magnetism creates a polarity between two poles of force, and the resonance is the frequency at which an animate or inanimate form will absorb energy waves.




This magnetism or magnetic resonance is the force that keeps all planets, the sun and galaxies in their place. Without the polarity causing a constant push and pull effect or action reaction, nothing that we know could exist at all.




Human beings, plants and animals are linked together to one another by magnetic resonance, each species having their own frequency, down to the smallest bacteria. The energy fields of all life forms interact with one another and the Universal Mind.




An experiment performed in a laboratory in the 60's proved that bacteria communicate with each other telepathically (magnetically) The experiment performed by these scientists was carried out using live bacteria, yogurt.




These scientists took two petri dishes and then placed small amounts of garden variety yogurt into the two dishes, than placing them at opposite ends of their lab table, then placing a sensitive electrical measuring device in one yogurt dish, leaving the other undisturbed.



The scientists then took a small beaker filled with cow's milk and began using a dropper, placing the drops in the undisturbed yogurt dish. What happened was almost unbelievable.




The dish of yogurt on the opposite end of the table, began registering electrical activity by moving the needle of the instrument far to the right, every time a drop of milk was added to the other yogurt dish.




They were astonished. Could yogurt communicate telepathically? Yes of course we already know the answer, magnetic resonance and the electrons in the air allow for all life to communicate with each other as we have already stated.




"Magnetic resonance is the breath of lie force breathed into every living thing, both animate and inanimate." This is the gift of the creator, the very channel of his expression. Without this magnetic resonance there would be no existence, no variety, no reproduction.



All that is created stands proof of its existence. The real being, The Magnetic One is that which puts us into operation, by magnetic induction. The magnetic fields surround all living things and pervades all space. God is pure electromagnetic energy or photons with intelligence at the highest degree of vibration.



(in him we live move and have our being).




If you ever considered lightning, how it is produced you would know it is due to a low and high pressure atmospheric condition, (positive electrical charge in the air and negative electrical charge on the ground) creating a static charge, when discharged resulting in a lightning bolt.




A similar action occurs on a much smaller scale when you drag your feet on the carpet, then touch your wife. You have just created a miniature lightning bolt and got yelled at, at the same time.




The same holds true of any spark emitting device such as a capacitor, condenser, spark gap generator or any number of electrical devices. The point being is that something can not come from nothing, in other words there has to already be electricity in the Universe in order for it's manifestation to be seen and used.




The very air we breathe is made up of tiny electrons; it is this electric charge that you take in your body carried by the oxygen molecule that sustains your life. Electricity is not a man made invention, it was simply discovered and harnessed by man, it always existed.





Electricity can exist without magnetism, and magnetism cannot exist without electricity. The Universe is full of electricity and magnetism, (photons) An electric generator like the ones at the big power stations work by the induction of DC current into a magnetic field of windings there-by creating usable current, and an electric motor is simply the induction of electricity into an armature producing magnetic force that causes the motor shaft to turn and produce work. Magnetism is the cause and Electricity is the effect.





But when they are interchanged Electricity is the cause and Magnetism is the effect. The DC current introduced into the generator field, was produced by permanent magnets mounted on the generator shaft. But the permanent magnets were created by introducing electricity into a bar of steel or ceramics.









In Foleys college physics fourth edition 1947 it says that "magnetism is the result of electrical currents, whether from free electrons or large scale currents due to the motions of electrons within an ATOM.



In it's ultimate analysis, magnetism, like matter, is an electrical phenomenon." Science has no explanation as to where the earth gets its magnetic field, nor do they know where the free electrons in the air come from.




They come from the stars and galaxies. It is evident that these two sources of energy are in abundance in the Universe in a free form. The very air you breathe and electric current running through every wire along every pole in every city in the world and operating this very computer I'm typing this on, is none other than "The Electrical One." All is photons, the Bible says God is light, and light is photon, which is unseen magnetism.



(in him we live, move and have our being)

MIND POWER ELECTRICAL

AND the ELECTRICAL ONE




"Guglielmo Marconi, Alexis Carrell and many other scientists have said that minds draw thoughts and happenings to themselves from a general flow of intelligence, a stream of consciousness around us.




The great inventor of wireless telegraphy, Marconi, told radio commentator John. B. Kennedy who broadcast it, " every word and every thought ever uttered is still in existence and could be recovered if only we knew how to tune in to get it." Religion says there is guidance for those attuned to His devoutness and prayer.



"You will find here a simple putting together of fully accepted but isolated observations of high authorities: That your body is a battery of myriad tiny electric cells, the brain the storage battery or condenser, [ Dr. George W. Crile, Cleveland Clinic ], that thought itself is or has electrical current, and can be controlled or directed with in the body, [ Prof. Edmund Jacobson, M.D., University of Chicago).



And that and impressionable sea of negative electrons densely envelops the earth, [ The United States Coast and Geodetic Survey], constituting a transmitting medium for electrical impulses, I.e., thoughts. Detailed study of these phenomena will convince that thoughts originate, travel through space, and are received, in ways almost exactly like radio waves, and with cerebral equipment amazingly like radio sets of crystal and filament types."



John Davenport, the Crehore sea





Some twenty five years later Dr. Samuel Wet discovered that in fact all life forms, including plants are electrical, as evidenced by Kirilian Photography, which shows the AURA or electromagnetic field around all living things. Dr. West discovered that each cell in your body is a small electrical generator.



The explosion of the mitochondria in the cell sets up a rotation of sodium and potassium in and out of the cell, there-by creating an electrical field around the cell {the sodium potassium pump}. Consider the average person has about 75 trillion cells, you can see how you are a walking battery. And that DNA also releases electrical energy.




Since we know that God is electromagnetic energy (Photons), and all life forms in the Universe are electromagnetic and that the Universe is filled with electromagnetic energy, and your subconscious mind is magnetic and operates on magnetism.



we can better understand { the Mental Universe}, and how the law of cause and effect, the law of correspondence, the law of attraction and many others work. We can now have our scientific explanation we so yearn for, as seekers of truth and knowledge.




It is also noteworthy to know it is written in ancient Chinese texts, Rene Descartes, the Egyptians, Greeks and others put so much emphasis on the Pineal Gland, located at the Third Eye center of the Brain, it is mans house of spirit, sixth sense.




It is you receiver of electrical impulses, and pituitary gland is the sender, for communicating with the Universal Mind, all of the endocrine glands are part of mans antenna array for communicating with the Universal. Jacob sees god face to face in the land of peneil in the bible.





The purpose of revealing this knowledge is twofold, first, this book is about truth and knowledge, and secondly, it removes the veil of mystery surrounding the Creator and its creation the Universe. And allows the student to fully understand the many laws work. A comprehension of what God is and how he works and the way it brings about an occurrence should not lessen ones reverence for God.




Electro-Magnetism (photons) or angles of light, which are messenger particles, is the means by which this Universal intelligence works, which light is a part of, because light is of the electromagnetic spectrum. And light or angles of light hold intelligence, known by scientists as messenger particles, which we will talk about later. So the riddle is solved, so below, so above.




God is Electromagnetic energy, photons, and with this knowledge we must realize that mans intelligence is that Universal mind functioning at mans level and of mans concept of it. This is the essence of the teaching.






"Recently Atoms were thought to be the reality of matter, ourselves, all solid and gaseous substances, so small they could not be seen weighed, smelled, nor touched. seemingly indestructible. Scientists after further analyzing the Atom now tell us that they are not indestructible at all, but are positive and negative energy forces, called protons and electrons, without hardness, without density or even positive actuality.





In fact they are but swirling vortices of energy-dynamic, pulsating with life. But life is spiritual as one eminent British Scientist put it-Science now explains matter by explaining it away!" Consider the Atom. The smallest speck that can be seen under a microscope contains more then 10 billion atoms, but that's not all.




Tiny as atoms are they consist of even smaller particles. In each atom is the Holy Trinity, protons, neutrons and electrons. The electrons whirl through the space of an atom completing billions of trips around the nucleus each millionth of a second ! Think of that . In a millionth of a second, the electron completes billions of trips around the nucleus of the Atom.




And that's what that chair you are sitting in is made of, your house, you're body the whole world. Made of whirling bits of energy. It used to be thought that the Universe was made of different kinds of matter and chemical elements. We know now that matter is not matter but electricity of two kinds, the electron, which most are familiar with as in the electron tube of old, and the proton.




From these, all chemical elements are built up. Hydrogen being the base element, iron, lead, oxygen, platinum and all other substances are but the arrangement of the number of protons and electrons, which they contain. Matter is really nothing other than electromagnetic energy or photons.





"To show how tenuous matter really is, is best illustrated by the fact that a single note or vibration sent by a properly tuned violin string might shake down the Golden Gate Bridge! Mountains and oceans, rock and iron, all can be reduced to a point, of purely spiritual.




Your body is 95 percent water and 5 percent other chemical elements, and they in turn can be reduced to mere vapor." Everything comes from, everything is made up of , and in fact everything is ELECTROMAGNETIC.

Collier: secret of the ages








Numbers 23:19 says God is not a man. 1 John says God is light. But why Light, what is so important about light, and how does it apply to you. Do you remember the reference to the pineal gland. Matt 6:22 Luke 11:34, the light of the body is the eye, therefore when your eye is single your whole body is full of light.



The pineal gland is the light receptor of the brain. And melatonin, which is secreted by the pineal gland is a skin lightener. So the Bible says, if your eye be single your body will fill with light. What is light, but God.



So according to the Bible Jacob came face to face with God {light} Genesis 32:20 I have seen Gods face and I call this place peniel, the spelling is a little different, but that's ok, its still talking about the pineal gland, the house of god, the place of dying, where you see Gods face.



But first you must die, you must release the EGO ( Satan ), you must leave the old self behind, that is why the Bible says no man can see Gods face and LIVE. Its not real physical dying, its a spiritual death. Die and see gods face in Pineal, (Pineal). To die is to symbolically kill the lower carnal or animal nature in your psyche.




So Jacob is saying that the place that he saw god was Peniel, IN THE BRAIN. One must read the symbolic nature of the Bible texts to understand the hidden truths there. None of the Bible texts are literally true, more on this later.



Rene Descartes believed that an entity distinct from the body made contact with the body, at the pineal gland of the brain. He felt that that which we call God contacts human beings in the (city) brain.



He said that the soul desires something, it causes this little gland , to which it is closely united to move or vibrate at a certain frequency, producing the effect which relates to desire. It is your souls job to bring you to your desires.




Can science prove that light changes things, nothing which is worthy of scrutiny is valid unless it can be backed up by science. Just believing something does not make it true, just because an organization has a large following does not make it true, just look at all the religions, the blind following the blind. So lets let science be our guiding light and beacon of truth.




NASA released a paper showing that light can change logic circuits in computers, they are called optical computers, they can do in an hour , what it takes a conventional computer many years to do.




NASA states that switches and gates in computers are logic circuits, just as in the human brain, you have logic circuits or gates, which are the twelve cranial nerves, referred to in the bible as the twelve gates to the city. The article says that photons are angles of light or messenger particles.




Photons are what was being described in the bible in referring to angels of light as messengers. NASA discovered that when photons strike organic thin films of living tissue, this light changes the logic circuit of the computer, in the same way that light from above changes your logic circuits via the pineal gland.



Light from above arrives as a photon, or messenger particle, enters the pineal gland of the brain, and blows open gates and gives you enlightenment, knowledge a new consciousness. Light from above, connecting with light from within.



That's what happens in meditation. Contact between you and the Universe takes place, but only in meditation. Meditation it is the single most important factor concerning this knowledge.



MEDITATION


So its that evil mediation, that stuff from the far east, this is that evil which fundamentalist such as Pat Robertson, Jerry Faldwell, and all religious fundamentalists, especially those on the air, those radio evangelists, say to stay away from, they say its evil.




Oh really, if its so evil then why is it in the Bible, oh I bet you didn't know that, because your church didnt teach it to you, because they too are but just exponents of the same old lies.




Religion is your mind on drugs, the Bible holds the profound truths embodied in the Universe, but the knowledge is obscured by religious words, its all symbolic, not a single story in the Bible is literally true, the masses do not understand this great truth.





The knowledge concerning the Truth, that the Bible is a symbol and made up of metaphysical teachings and was known to a few, such as the Christian Gnostics, the Greeks, the Egyptians, and other groups of old.




But as a whole the Bible and other Religious works were to be passed on to mankind in its shrouded or veiled form, so as to confuse the world, and keep you in the dark for the purpose of CONTROL, so they would have the money and the power.






Until such a time that a messenger by the name of Bill Donahue, would be sent to teach the truth. What we want to know is the truth, and what we need to do to survive, to become successful, and have peace and happiness, we can have these things, regardless of some New world Order or not, but first we must understand the TRUTH.




Is meditation taught in the Bible? Lets see! Psalms 18:11 he made darkness his secret place; Matt 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut the door, prey to thy father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeith in secret shall reward thee openly.




Amos 5:18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD, to what end is it for you? The day of the LORD is darkness, and not light. Mos5:20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it.





If that's not enough, here's some more, the following are key statements that the Bible makes: Matt 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!, for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for you do not go in yourselves, neither do you suffer (teach) the people to go in. And the bible says "Be still and know that I am god".




Be still, stop the chattering monkey, We live in a world of noise pollution, we are busy going to and fro, when can we have time to listen to nature. The great teachings have always taught to retreat within your self to get centered, to get in touch with your inner strength, and always warn against idle chatter.




Many are afraid of silence, and try to fill the void with sound, so that our environments are always filled with chatter, yet the silence is as necessary to our psyche as is good stimulating conversation.




Meditation calms the mind, and causes one to appear more in tune with the universe, others will view you differently after you have been meditating for a while, because of the internal change that has taken place in your brain. listen, listen, listen.




Its all meditation, listen in silence, watch, the bible also says watch, watch, watch. The Bible has twenty some odd verses on meditation, you can find them yourself. I think it is quite clear that religion has deceived you, and that meditation is the KEY.




Where did Jacob see Gods face? In the land of pineal, and matt 6:22 "if thy eye be single thy body will fill with light" What is this light? The light is God, its messenger particles.





Are there other clues alluding to meditation, 2 corinth. 2; I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body or out of the body I cannot tell): God knoweth; such a one caught up to the third heaven, and I knew such a man, whether in the body or out of the body I cannot tell: god knoweth.



Here again we see meditation, when you are in a Delta brain wave state in meditation you can have an out of body experience, and there it is right in the bible, for you read and understand.





At this point its nothing but clear, that the bible is talking about finding God in meditation. And what did job say, Job 20:26, and though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in the flesh I shall see god. In the flesh, while he's alive, not dead, "God is the god of the living and not the god of the dead."



Job sees gods face while he's alive in the same place as Jacob in the land pineal.



It's the light from above striking the pineal gland in meditation creating an enlightenment for you, an universal message sent just for you, for you to decode and understand.



Does meditation really work? if so how?







An amazing truth occurs known to those called physicists. Quantum Physicists to be exact. The amazing truth is that natures invisible energy such as photons, electrons and atoms move through space in waves. The way you would visualize a wave in the ocean They move that way until someone looks at them.




When someone Watches, the waves collapse and the change from wave to particle takes place. From a wave to a dot. Only when the electron or photon is observed does this occur.



If no one is watching the wave exists, you look and the particle exists. John Wheeler a physicist states that "it is only the presence of conscious observers in the form of ourselves that have collapsed the wave function and made the Universe exist. Without the observer there can be nothing."




The collapse of the wave function happens to atoms, electrons, and photons. You are atoms, electrons and photons. Inside of you the wave function of atoms, electrons and photons collapse when you watch, when you observe, when you meditate.




Science says that the electron waves on earth collapse because the entire universe is looking. Stephen Hawking then makes the startling statement, "that there must actually be something outside of the universe to look at the universe which collapses it's wave functions.



"You look at yourself, the universe looks at you, and who is looking at the universe, Albert Einstein appropriately called this "spooky action at a distance."




The Bible says: watch, watch, watch. So who were the watchers that the Bible talks about, and in the Keys if Enoch? You and I, the universe, someone else?




The experiment in a laboratory




The experiment dispatches a photon, or atom, to a screen. But between the screen and the origin is another screen blocking the way except for two holes. The single atom amazingly goes through both holes as the wave, and then touches a spot on the screen that it selects when someone observes it. At M.I.T., they found that Atoms can be at two places at the same time.



No one can predict where on the screen the Atom will strike. It goes where it wishes to go. It may even go right on to Mars. So through the two holes it goes as a wave and as soon as it is observed it collapses to a particle and in most cases hits a spot on the screen.




So how does this experiment apply to you?




Consider that a message in the form of photons or electrons is moving through the universe from God destined for you. It knows where it has to go as do the electrons or photons in the lab. But you are not watching.




Thus the message moves through the universe as a wave waiting for you to watch, at which time it can collapse to a particle and enter through the light receptor of your brain which is the pineal gland and then touch the screen within you, right where it is supposed to go. The admonition is to Watch, watch, watch.




They know where they are going




A moving electron, atom, or photon, will arrive where it wills. You cannot predict with certainty. The question is can the one who dispatches the energy direct it. Does the universe direct specific particles to you? If so then consider this. Photons are angles of light that impact the earth from above.




Science calls them messenger particles. Religion says Angels of light are messengers. Do you see? If you are watching, if you are meditating, the angel (angle) of light within you brings you your message from the Cosmos (God). Please understand how real this is.




can an angle of light become a person, and revert back to light again?




Photons which are messenger light waves traveling through the universe, can contact protons, when this occurs energies inside of each called quarks cause a new particle to be formed. In other words light can change into matter and back into light again.



The messenger particle which is light can become a person and change back into light. That person that told you something important, the person that showed up out of nowhere and helped you in a snowstorm, when you turned and looked back to see him or her, they were gone.



There are many such stories on record, as proof of this phenomenon. This is not something for you to believe. This is reality. Light can change into matter and back into light again.




The Light becomes Dark; an interesting fact is that light which is God according to the scriptures, is actually darkness, the light and dark are the same thing, so in order to see the light which is god, you must activate the pineal gland, because the light of god is invisible and cannot be seen with naked eyes, it is of a frequency above that which can be seen with the eyes.



So since we cannot see in the dark the light which is god, it would mean that the light is actually dark and that the dark is actually light. If you are standing in light, you cannot see the invisible light which is god.



So to receive this light, I have to be in the dark so that the light receptor, which is the pineal gland will activate and receive the reception, does this make sense. Psalms 18:11 he made darkness his secret place.




So then darkness is the secret place of god, then when we prey we enter this secret place in darkness (meditation) and see that which cannot be seen, God. Go into yourself and see the invisible light, and the day of the LORD is darkness.



So then it could be stated thusly ; NASA said that Photons respond to Electrons, so in meditation the electron (you) attracts photons (god) its all science. Not the hocus pocus of religion.




So it could be said that since the pineal gland attracts these photons (God) it should be stated that the pineal gland is your God receptor.




So what is invisible light? Science tells is that light is Electro magnetism, it cant be seen, you cannot see electricity, nor magnetism , but yet it can be measured, known and experienced.




Light which is magnetism vibrating a very high frequency is actually electromagnetism, which brings us back to electricity and magnetism being the essence of god. The word spirit is actually a religious word trying to describe these scientific terms.




Spirit is just a religious word used by people of the middle ages trying to explain the sub atomic realm, where the true power resides. These indigenous people did not understand the scientific aspect of this realm, so they simply called it spirit.




How then can we be sure that Spirit is actually electromagnetism? Because this is the animating principle inside of your body, the only thing that can animate life is electricity. It is also light.




Now we have opened the secret that religion has missed, it cannot be done by singing hymns, or preying with words, handling snakes, kneeling and eating biscuits, it can only be done with spirit (electromagnetism) Which is the animating vital force of all living things. CHI










You are a walking storage battery or condenser of electricity, with every cell being an electrical generator, seeking that from above which is photons (God). God = light = photons, seeking to be in union with its attractable Electron you, external cosmic light seeking internal light(electron).



This is called the wedding feast of the souls in the Bible, it is the story of the prodigal son returning home, to the fathers house after many long years away from home. Electrons, protons and photons are religiously called the father, son and holy ghost. Now the riddle is solved, the truth is known, the veil of mystery is being lifted.




If we consider that electricity is neutral, and can be used at our direction, then our use of this power makes it good or bad depending upon our wishes. If you apply too much power to an electrical circuit it will overload and burn out.




So now we must consider that if this electricity that we call god is allowed to overwhelm our physical brain is it not possible to get what we call burn out . Do we get burned out as a result of too much god (electricity). Is that which we call the devil in the Bible the action of too much electricity? Lets see.




Helena Blavatsky states in her book the secret doctrine, that Samael is also Satan, and would you believe that the word Samael means electrical current (electricity).




Yes and too much electricity in the brain causes overload, which causes emotional outbreaks, hot tempers, and the like. Its all because of too much current, which is Satan. So now I have said that God and Satan are one and the same, could this be so?




One says the devil made me do it, it was the influence of Satan that caused me to kill all those people. Nothing can effect the mind or cells of the body save some invisible force, and we know it to be electricity, or electromagnetism. So too much God and you become mentally imbalanced and not enough god you become weak and have a lack of will.





The mythological character in the bible known as Jesus, and we will discuss this in detail later. But Jesus always seemed to give a sermon in Galilee Matt 3:13 then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. Matt 4:12.




Now Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee matt 4:23 and Jesus went about all Galilee.matt 21:11 and the multitude said, this is jesus of Nazareth of Galilee. Matt 28:7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and behold, he goeth before you into Galilee, there ye shall see him; lo I have told you. Matt 28:10




Then said Jesus unto them, be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there they shall see me. From the Christian dictionary written by M G Easton, the word Galilee means CIRCUIT.




So then the activity of Jesus occurs in the circuit which is electricity, Satan, the circuit which is electricity, with Samuel in the realm of electricity. All are electrical, everything is and is made up of protons and electrons (electricity).




If too much electricity is Satan and causes confusion and mental imbalance, how can one fix the problem, what can you do to resist too much electricity. It seems that the word resist has a more meaningful application considering this science, we know in fact that in the east they use the word OHM while meditating, In fact the sounding of the word ohm in mediation does cause the electricity from above to be lessened through the act of resistance, by saying OHM.




The current that is too much is now lessened, we can now have a more normal control of electrical currents in the brain, which will bring about the stability of your nature. So the oppressor which is Satan is represented by electric current that overwhelms the brain and causes a breakdown in consciousness, resulting in wars, sickness, hatred etc. It's the devil bobby Beouche'




We have now identified God, Angels, Demons and Devils as electrical current. There is simply nothing else outside of you that is invisible that can change your consciousness. Bring fear, joy, or whatever. It is electricity, electromagnetism.




The cells in your brain react to one thing and one thing only. Electrical stimulation. So if there are demons, devils, god, angels, we have now reached a point of understanding what they are, ELECTRICITY. And now can understand how they work.




Quite simply if an electrical stimulation flows as current the circuits of the brain, if the resistance is proper, there is a stimulation of joy, love, peace. It is god, Jesus, angels.




If the electrical stimulation flows as current through the circuits of the brain and the resistance is not proper. There can be overheating, and a stimulation of rage, fear, hate, anger, violence and there is demons, the devil etc. whether its god or devil depends on the current and resistance and its impact on a cell. Its that simple. Your brain is a little saline pool that acts as a conductor and runs on electricity.




In Judith's Hoppers book The three pound universe. The statement every thought, every twitch of your finger is an electrical event or series of electrical events. All the information that reaches you from the world, from the patter of light, shadows, gets translated into a sequence of electrical impulses.




We have now identified the boogey men of religion, the demons and devils are simply electrical current run amuck through the circuits of the brain. Various electro magnetic stimulation obviously can effect some differently than others, depending on the individual brain, its resistance and condition.




The sun gives you a tan or gives you cancer. Its the same sun. The light from above can be God or the Devil. It's the same light, the result is in the reception of that light. When electricity enters your house properly you have comfort and joy, God, angels. If it enters improperly, it burns your house down. Devils, demons, that's it. Its the devil Bobby Bouche.




So you would have an electrician, or some one who knows about electricity make the connection. You wouldn't go to a religious person Well your house-your temple, is you. The electricity is entering and there have been many instances of burn up and burn out.




You should not seek the correction by going to a religious person, because they simply do not know.






THE TEMPLE OF GOD

THE BRAIN


INTO THE HOLY PLACE


Nations fight over physical holy places. As we study the mystical meaning of the words from ancient times they tell us clearly they tell us clearly that the only holy places that exist are within the mind. From Genesis to Revelation it is all about your mind.




Neurons or nerve cells in the brain are the basic communication unit of the brain. If god created the brain and created it to communicate by transmitting and receiving in this way then it seems reasonable to conclude that, that is how god would communicate with you and I.




One nerve cell sends an electrical signal down its axon to a dendrite of a second nerve cell. The signal is received at the synapse a tiny gap between the membranes of the two neurons. Yes indeed its all electricity. We have the word Electric, we have Elohim, which is god, we have angEL, and angels are named MichaEL, UriEL, GabriEL, SamaEL.









Now we look at the dictionary reference of Electric. Notice here the word electric from the Greek Elector which means beaming SUN. Notice now elect, electrical, electricity. Now the word elect, carefully selected, chosen for salvation, through divine mercy one chosen or set apart as by divine favor.




The only way that something invisible can effect your mind is electrically, the energy would have to trigger gates in the brain, cause synapses to fire various parts of the nervous system etc. It is Electric, and it is Electric current.



The bible states that if we resist the devil he will flee from us.




Is it not curious that when meditating there would come the chant of OM. The meditation tracking the flow of energy called Kundalini.




From the New York Times, Dr. Alfred Lowy, after traveling through the nerves in the spinal chord, the signal reaches the pineal gland.




So this electrical energy going through the nerves, and the chant of OM. Then would the assumption be that meditation provides the resistance so the electrical energy will arrive at the brain with the proper voltage so it is God or Angels rather than devils and Demons.




How do we do the watching meditation




The following is a brief explanation relative to the reason and the how. We have to be scientifically consistent with this so that we have a basis to work from that we know works in other aspects of light and life. In other words in order for this to work we have to do what science says induces light to arrive at a particular point and do what it does.




Therefor listen to NASA and quantum physicists of the like of Dr. Gribbons, Gary Zukov, Ian Marshall and anthropoligists such as Dr. Jeremy Narby. Who stated that when light from above (magnetism) strikes the earth it has a profound effect on amino acids and nucleic acids in plants and humans.




Now we put down the science books and look at the bible and other ancient documents and they all speak of entering within ones self to find "God". Remember we are trying to attract descending light and correct our DNA. The bible is clear in stating that god is light.




Ancient writings including the bible talk of the single eye which is the light receptor of the body. They speak of serpents and twins and winding stairs, which is DNA.




So now back to quantum physics. When a light wave is observed it collapses to a microdot particle. Magnetism flowing down from above can entwine with your DNA, but cannot do so unless we watch ourselves and collapse the wave to a micro dot particle. It then enters our body and entwines with our DNA and can correct the defects in our DNA and in the DNA of all life upon the planet.




To confirm the fact go to any book store and pick up a book on quantum physics such as the dancing Wu Li Masters and see how light waves are observed and collapse to a particle and then can hit their target. Now you know the meaning of the WATCHERS in the ancient scriptures, the keys if Enoch, the Gnostics and in the bible, it's all about watching.




Scriptual proof of Quantum mechanics, yes its in the Bible !



EX 29:24 And thou shalt put all in the hands of Aaron, and in the hands of his sons; and shalt wave them for a wave offering before the LORD.



EX 29:26 And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of Aaron's consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before the LORD: and it shall be thy part.



EX 29:27 And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the wave offering, and the shoulder of the heave offering, which is waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of the consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons:




LEV 7:30 His own hands shall bring the offerings of the LORD made by fire, the fat with the breast, it shall he bring, that the breast may be waved for a wave offering before the LORD.





LEV 7:34 For the wave breast and the heave shoulder have I taken of the children of Israel from off the sacrifices of their peace offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons by a statute for ever from among the children of Israel.





LEV 8:27 And he put all upon Aaron's hands, and upon his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before the LORD.



LEV 8:29 And Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before the LORD: for of the ram of consecration it was Moses' part; as the LORD commanded Moses.



LEV 9:21 And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.



LEV 10:15 The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath commanded.




LEV 14:12 And the priest shall take one he lamb, and offer him for a trespass offering, and the log of oil, and wave them for a wave offering before the LORD:




LEV 14:24 And the priest shall take the lamb of the trespass offering, and the log of oil, and the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD:



LEV 14:30 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD.



LEV 23:15 And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:




LEV 23:20 And the priest shall wave them with the bread of the first fruits for a wave offering before the LORD, with the two lambs: they shall be holy to the LORD for the priest.



NUM 5:25 Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the offering before the LORD, and offer it upon the altar:



NUM 6:20 And the priest shall wave them for a wave offering before the LORD: this is holy for the priest, with the wave breast and heave shoulder: and after that the Nazarite may drink wine.



How to do it


Close your eyes to shut out the outside world, tell yourself your watching yourself, this is done to collapse the magnetism (light) wave to a microdot, which can enter via the Pineal gland and touch your DNA. Hold your breath for 3 or four seconds, this shuts down the mind and allows the new activity to take place unhindered.




So close your eyes and hold your breath for 3 or 4 seconds, and tell yourself you are watching yourself and then walk away. Do it as often as you are comfortable. Dont worry about your watching, seeing or hearing anything. Just do it. Then observe the results in the change in your life as your DNA (word of God) which has been defective as a result of your family tree, changes.




The light that leaves the body is seen by some as an aura is actually electrical energy from internal DNA, and your cells. To direct this DNA energy to another for healing follow the three second meditation outlined above, but instead of saying to yourself, I am watching myself, you will say to yourself, I am watching myself for______________ and you fill in the name. It works!




TO SUMMARIZE




We have evolved to a place of understanding and change here. We understand that we are electrical instruments. Regardless of what kind of religious or sentimental attachments we place on ourselves, the bottom line is that what effects us and what we effect has it's beginning as electrical impulses.




We now know that god is light or electrical energy. We are created in the image and likeness of God which makes us light or electrical energy. Dont try to rationalize how light can have a personality. That happens when light nests inside of your body with a working brain. Light must be able to nest in a body that has a working brain.




Light then can experience, learn and remember and take that experience into a new body. In that way life evolves through experience. If God is electricity, we are electricity, and angels are electricity, and the devil is electricity and demons are electricity.








We see Jesus saying tell my brethren go into Galilee and there they shall see me. Again M G Easton a born again Christian, the word Galilee means circuit. And we consider later that it was in Galilee where just about all of the miracles of Jesus took place.


James 4:7 Resist the devil and he will flee.




If the devil is electrical current then how do we resist. We submit ourselves to the law of electrical resistance. Which is OHM, which is OM, which is meditation. In Genesis 32:20 Jacob says I have seen God face to face and I will call the place Peniel.



In darkness the pineal gland opens and secretes melatonin and truly activates. So we stimulate the electrons in the pineal gland by concentrating on it's location during meditation. Which is the third eye center between the eyes, right where the Indians of India have their red dots.




Our body is made of atoms. Atoms contain electrons. Now we understand that we are focusing on the entire body, but on the electrons in the Pineal because the pineal is the light receptor of the body. We know that God is light. Jacob sees God face to face. In other words there was an activation of the light receptor of the body.



Jacob call the name of the place Peniel. So we activate the electrons in the Pineal why? We are trying to attract Photons. Photons are angles of light coming to the earth from above. Photons are messenger particles. They are angels of light. Messengers of God. So we stimulate the Pineal, like Jacob ad see God face to face.



Electrons are stimulated and attract photons, which are angles of light, or angels of light, messenger particles from God. So we are looking for a message. We are looking for the messenger. We thus stimulate the electrons in the Pineal to attract the messenger, or photon, or God.




But where is this message, this Photon coming from? Basically the only place it can come from is the electrical magnetism that is in the cosmos. The galaxies, the novas, the nebulas, the stars, the planets. And I'm not just saying that because we know that electrical energy does come from above. I am saying that because the Bible says it.


Genesis 1:14 let there be lights in the heavens and let them be for signs.



Job 38:31 canst thou bind the sweet influences of the Pleades or loose the bands of Orion. What is being said here? The electrical magnetism that comes from the Pleades exerts a sweet influence on the human brain. There is also an influence from Orion, and yes that evil old astrology is right there in the Bible.




And Job 38:33 can you bring forth Mazzoroth in it's due season, Mazzoroth means the 12 signs of the Zodiac, you can look this up in the dictionary and it's also in tha back of most Bibles. And lastly Job 38:33 Do you know the ordinances of heaven.




The rules of the cosmos. The order. And canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth. In other words do you understand that electro magnetic energy from the stars has an effect on the kingdom of the ruling operation of the earth. Do you understand that?




Judges 5:20 They fought from heaven. The stars in their courses fought against Sisera, sisera was a general who had a bad day and was killed. The current surging through his brain was effected by the electrical energy of the stars and it effected him negatively, and he made bad decisions, which resulted in getting him killed. And it's in the Bible.




So we have scientific evidence and scriptual evidence. We are electrical instruments in our physical realm. We are electricity in our spiritual realm. We can make contact with photons which are angles of light and are messenger particles.




Biblically we can make contact with God and angels which are messengers of light. We can resist the improper electrical energy which destroyed Sisera by using OHM, OM , during meditation.




So if we are to come under the dominion of the ordinances of heaven which are the influences of the stars we must stimulate the electrons in the pineal and open it to receive the angles of light from above.




So there are really two types of meditation, the watching meditation for collapsing waves, and the OM meditation for reducing the electrical current coming from above.




A REAL SHOCKER




Light travels at 186,400 miles per second, but scientists break the speed of light. Scientists claim they have broken the ultimate speed barrier. The speed of light.





Physicists have shown that light impulses can be accelerated up to 300 times their normal velocity of 186,400 miles per second. Just for a second. If we multiply 300 times 186,000 we get 55 million, 800 thousand miles per second. So in 10 seconds we would go 5 billion 580 million miles.




THE ARTICLE FROM PRINCETON CONTINUES.


On one interpretation it means that light will arrive at it's destination almost before it started it's journey. In effect it is leaping forward in time. Consider that. It is going into the future where things have not happened yet are located.




So what is going to happen to you has already happened and now this light is capable of going to where the future is located. Remember what I said, that what is going to happen to you has already happened.




What is going to be the experience of the earth has already happened.


Ecclesiastes 1:19 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun.




Ecclesiastes 1:10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, see, this is new? It hath been already of old time, which was before us.




Now isn't that interesting. Because jumping into the future is actually jumping in to the past. Because the things that are coming are really things that have already been experienced elsewhere. And that which is done is that which shall be done and there is no new thing. See this is new? It has been already of old time which was before us.




So that which we are expecting is that which has already occurred. It just has not reached us as yet.



The Age of Aquarius




The Age of Aquarius is considered an age of conscious enlightenment, invention etc. And these things have been fulfilled. Everything of substance scientifically invented 100 years ago. The dawning of the New Age of Aquarius. Before that was all a blur.




We have mapped the human genome and discoveries in the field of genetics and elsewhere are mind boggling to say the least. And ancient texts seems to attribute this to the passover connected to the present age.




Luke 22:8 and he sent Peter and John saying, go and prepare the passover that we may eat. And they said unto him, where will you that we prepare. Luke 22:10 And he said unto him, behold when you are entered into the city there shall a man meet you bearing a picture of water, follow him into the house where he enters.




Where will we take the passover. What will be the sign. What should we look for? In Revelations it says there shall a man meet you bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house where he enters. Which house?



The Zodiacal house of Aquarius which is now. In astrology a house is a sign of the Zodiac, and water bearer is Aquarius, and it's a constellation and it houses Orion. All this and it's in the Bible, WOW. But don't look up in the sky, that's that evil Astrology. So says Religion, not so says the Bible.




So you see, there's no boogie man of religion, no devil, no hell, how do I know there is no hell, because proverbs 1524: A word to the wise above; (using your brain) that he may depart from hell beneath. Beneath what?




Beneath means ruled by your lower nature, or carnal mind. If only you will listen, open your mind and free yourself from dogma and false teachings of religion, of which has created all the psychosis and psychiatrists, the wars, the killings of innocent people in the name of God and Religion.









This is not the way folks, science points to the way. Lets strip all the dross away to see the shiny pearl within, the TRUTH and the LIGHT.




And what about Heaven? Look not lo here nor lo there, because the kingdom of God is WITHIN YOU, says the Bible. There's no clearer statement than that. And in him we live, move and have our being, in what?





In electromagnetic energy. And it comes from the stars, the galaxies, the planets, the supernovas, the quasars, and all the rest of the cosmos, its all in the mind of God, because all is mind, all is God. God is just a name given this sub atomic realm by ancient indigenous people, to describe this energy.




Religion has nothing to do with it. When you are operating outside the agency of the group i.e. religion, one may resonant with nature (God), in the movie Resurrection, do you remember why the Catholic church was so afraid of the message that one of the fathers discovered.




So afraid were they, that they went to great lengths to stop anyone, including killing them of course, so that no one would know the truth that the priest discovered. The truth that he discovered was that no one need go to any church to be saved, churches are built by men, not God.




And when the of the bishops was asking the father who knew the truth, what was it?, he repilied: Lift up a rock and there I'll be, pick up a piece of wood and he will be there. God and man may meet in the bush at any time. They didn't want the world to know this, because this would mean the end of opression and control from the Church.





So they killed the last father that knew the truth. Rent the movie and see, it's really good. No church, just you and the Universe is all that's required. Gods tabernacle that was built with no tools or hands in the bible, the Human Brain, this is gods Church, so, in deep space on a NASA spacecraft, or in a submarine deep in the bottom of the ocean, one may contact his higher self (God).



If everyone knew this all religions and all churches would eventually die off, because who would need them anymore.





THE BRAIN is the TEMPLE




Can we prove that the temple spoken of in the bible is the brain, that the city spoken of through out the bible is actually the brain? And that Israel is an activity of the Brain. Indeed for all is MIND.




The bible in exodus 26 says that the tabernacle of the temple must be made according to a pattern. The question is a pattern of what? Exodus 26:33 says the tabernacle must be built with an outer room called the holy place, an inner room called the holy of holies, and the holy place, the holy of holies must be separated from each other by a curtain or veil.




Now you will find that the human brain has an outer covering called Dura Mater or (hard mother) an inner most sensative area called Pia Mater (tender mother). Dura mater and pia Mater. And they are seperated from each other by Arachnoid, the web, or veil, or curtain.




There we have an anatomically correct description of the human brain written over 4000 years ago, and described as the temple not made with hands, where God dwells. Who wrote it? A bunch of sheep herders?




RAM

In your computer the place of memory is called RAM. In your brain the place of memory is called Hippocampus. In the hiccocampus is an organ called Ammons Horn. Ammon is the Egyptian deity whose symbol is the Ram head. So we obviously do not need Religion to solve the our problems,we need more RAM.




We have developed evidence that the tabernacle of the Bible and the human brain are the same, and rightly so. Because all of your thoughts, your understandings, your accumulated knowledge, everything you are or will become, is in your brain. Fitting isn't it then, that this is where God must dwell, in order to bring about a change in you and I, because it's all mental. The Universe is mental. The kybalion



Is the Bible the literal word of God?




Before we go any further we need to establish a foundation that the Bible is not the literal word of God, but the inspired word of God written by men. And that the Bible was deliberately written in symbolic form, for it is mythology, which is reality.




So what proofs do we have that there were no talking snakes, talking donkeys, fish swallowing people and spitting them back out, and all the animals on earth on a boat. What could all this really mean?


The Bible as a symbol.


Is the bible symbolic. we must use the bible itself to see.






2 corinthians 3:6 "Who also hath made us able ministers of the New Testament; not the letter, but of the spirit; for the LETTER (literal) killeth, but the spirit giveth life (understanding). So theres the bible itself telling us not to take it literal.




In other words the literal interpretation kills the idea, the knowledge cannot be known, but the spiritual understanding brings life, which is truth, if one believes in the bible texts literally, then he must still believe in Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny and the tooth ferry.




Galations 4:24 "Which things are an allegory. Remember the definition of myth include the word allegory, telling us its symbolic.




Matthew 13:34 :all things spake Jesus unto the multitudes in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: The bible is saying that all of Jesus statements were symbolic, as he himself was the symbol of the Greek sun, Horus and Amen Ra the Sun God of Egypt and many more. I have called my son out of Egypt.




Psalm 78:2 'I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter DARK sayings of old: Here the bible states that God speaks in parables. And what are dark sayings of old. Obviously there are symbolic statements. Not literal.




Finally in proverbs 1:6 To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise.and their dark sayings.


The Bible is saying don't take this stuff literally, but religion does not reveal this great truth to you. It keeps you in the dark, and causes educated people to believe in ferry tales, please don't insult the the writers of the bible and god by believing in the literal interpretation that religion has taught you.




That has been responsible for all the wars, all the killings, all the sufferings of the world. Be wise, and realize this truth. So what do the stories mean, lets look at them and see the beauty in understanding the symbolic interpretation.




This story of Lot is the most touchy subject of all, due to the symbolism expressed. And because of that, it has been a thorn in many minds. Why should it be in the bible at all? again, it is because of the unknown, hidden meaning.




Like the Song of Solomon and other exoteric expressions of symbolism which were current in those days, probably the deeper, hidden meaning behind the personae was sensed and thus remained in the text .The story says a righteous man lived in the wicked city of Sodom.




Here the original evil is portrayed as two cities or centers of consciousness, which were misused and only the fire from above could purify them.




Lot remained untouched in the two cities (centers) Dura Mater and Pia Mater, but when two angels of the lord entered, the wickedness of Sodom and Gomorrah, and Jehovah's intention to destroy the cities by fire, were made known to lot.





Lot was willing to surrender his two virgin daughters to the mob in order to save the two strangers who were the angels of God. His two daughters represent two unsuccessful spiritual efforts of long duration. but, in order to keep the Grace of the SPIRIT of Jehovah which had come into the house (brain), he was willing to give up many claims of rewards for his efforts.




The spirit saved him by bringing him to a higher consciousness, a higher realm, upward. he and his wife and two daughters were ushered out of the two centers while these chakras of consciousness were being purified and destroyed by fire.




His negative aspect of desire for a home in matter, symbolized by his wife, looked back and froze or crystallized into a pillar of salt, the essence of not giving up the earthly desires of the soul. The looking back signifies when you and I try to hold on to that which is in material matter.




Now he dwelt in a cave with his two daughters, in the mountains, signify a higher state of consciousness, and the cave refers to a center of consciousness within. A safety zone, the Pia Mater. The inner most court, or holy of holies.




Here the scarafice and all his efforts in Spiritual growth were rewarded by the lord. Having surrendered his will (ego) to God , his progress bore fruit. The two daughters were unsuccessful spiritual endeavors.




The wine which intoxicated him, was the spiritual awakening and was the reward of spiritual progress. in all humility, he continued his efforts for the inward journey, and he overcame, like Noah and Jonah.




His efforts bore fruit, symbolized by the birth of a son to each daughter. Each became a nation (Pure thoughts) of complete growth of their own kind. Such is the symbolism of old, which is like a nut with a hard shell that breaks many a tooth. He overcame the carnal or lower nature, but he lost his wife, which symbolized part of his lower nature ruled by his Ego.










(Satan) In the bible killing children and sacrificing human lives, are but symbolic statements, denoting, killing out those thoughts that hamper your upward spiritual growth. And wine always symbolizes the spirit, blood the life force of God. Which is CHI.




The bible is steeped in this symbolic tradition, and breaking the code if you will, is the only way to the nut inside. You will break a tooth. All of the bible stories are but, stories signifying the souls journey back home to the fathers house, as in the Prodigal Son.




The story of the Prodigal Son is an allegory referring to each persons soul wanderings through life, it gets weary of such meandering and comes home to the father.



The kingdom of God is within you; In him we live, move and have our being. The wedding feast of the souls is the summation of the bible. God rejoices when you finally turn to him.




The fire and brimstone always raining down in the bible is always the purifying spark of god, that takes place in the fornix of the brain, where your thoughts hover about, like the animals, creepy things and flying things of the Noah allegory. The bible is a psychology book teaching you to get your mind right.




An what about the Noah story? Here again we must look for the spiritual understanding, to be transformed by the purifying spark, we must not look at the literalness of the story. An army of scientists in a thousand years could not put every living creature in a ship, complete with rhionoseross's, giraffe, elephants, and the smallest things that can barely be seen.




And feed all these animals, where can you store more food than the animals themselves, There are thousand upon thousands of species of animals on earth, and most all feed on each other, they don't eat grain and such, so you see how could this be possible? The fundamentalist Christian will say God had the power to march the animals, to the ship and god made them survive.



Then why even march them to a ship, if God has all this power,why didn't
he just suspend all the animals in the air, keep their belly's full, until the flood waters resided and then set the animals back on the earth? Why, because it never happened that's why, it's a spiritual story, like the story of lot, and all the rest.





This myth speaks of the inner place of hiding. The divine realm of consciousness, is where we stay in our meditation to ride out the storms of life. In taking two of every animal, the scriptures are speaking of the dual nature of our physical being. The positive and negative energies, that are in reality our human psyche.




Thus we take the soaring things or our spirit, the crawling things of our lower nature, the mundane things of our domestic nature, the wild things of, well you know. All packed into the Ark of safety which is the divine realm of consciousness, reached through meditation. When the storm is through the door opens and we step out on the mountain top. We have overcome




Jesus was born in a manger, because there was no room at the inn. No room at the inn, for the king, yes because it's an allegory, the manger represents animals, and what are you and I born with?




We are born with our animal natures, this nature is responsible for our will to survive in this world. Bit there must come a stage in your life, when you rise above your animal nature, and you are no longer ruled, by the lower forces. But ruled by those things spiritual.




You can never really rid yourself of your animal nature, its as much a part of you as any other quality. But when you have overcome , when you have arrived at the mountain top, when you realize love for all mankind, you have risen complete with your animal nature, but it's not the ruling quality of your life, any more, the spiritual quality is.




Because you can never really kill your animal nature, because you will have a disease and unbalanced mind. It's a necessary part of your nature, your psyche, but once you are reborn into the spirit of god, it s no longer the ruling quality in your life. So there's the Noah story, in all it's real beauty. For you to understand.




but you must die symbolically, because when you die symbolically, you rise above and are no longer controlled by your carnal or lower qualities. That's why the bible says no one can see gods face and live, its not literal death, it's the symbolic killing of the lower nature.




Now the bible would contradict itself at every turn , if one does not understand the spiritual nature if the biblical texts. Because in another verse the Bible says, Jacob, and Job saw Gods face, and what did Job say, even though my body shall wither away, ill shall see Gods face in the Flesh, in the Flesh it says.



Oh but the Bible says flesh and blood cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. Of course not, because the kingdom of heaven is within you, and you must die symbolically to go there. Do you see? Do you understand?.




Some fundamentalist will say, well I don't believe in any of this nonsense, because, if God wanted me to understand the Bible, why did he make it so difficult to read, why didn't he write it in plain easy to understand language:?



Because god didn't WRITE IT, man did. And man loves a good story, look at all the myths, there beautiful spiritual stories and great truths hidden, waiting to be discovered by those initiates, who understand the nature of ancient texts.




Do we use symbols in our language, today?



I therefore submit to you, in your own language, in symbols (dark sayings). Nothing means what it says, but you understand all of it.


He's off the wall.
It's apiece of cake.
He spilled the beans.
He shot off his mouth (ouch that must of hurt).
She's green with envy.
You're going against the grain.
We have run amuck.
She's the apple of his eye.
I'll take a back seat (not in the back of the room).
You're barking up the wrong tree (a dog)?
Stop beating around the bush (a gardener)?
Let's get down to brass tacks.
To draw on a dead horse (old navy)
My pigs flying baker (also old navy) bet you dont know what that one means. Its from the old china fleet, yes we had one.
He's three sheets to the wind.
he let the cat out of the bag ( better go catch him).
There are shooting the bull (not real bulls now)..
He kicked the bucket.
What's the scuttlebutt going round.
He drinks like a fish.
He flew off the handle (jack gets exercise).
He gets my goat ( cant have anyone stealing my goats now).
It's raining cats and dogs ( that must hurt).
Your'e pulling my leg (ouch).

I got it for poultry mount (little money).
I got it for chicken feed (its a little money).



This is just s a partial list of old or dark or symbolic statements. This language was a staple of the literary of the old days. Everyone loves to use symbolic language it ads color and character the language.



The Egyptians were fond of saying we were sitting around eating their gods. they were talking about, consuming mentally their gods, not literally eating them. So I've got to tend to my flock now, my sheep are getting away. Sheep are divine thoughts. Some are of this fold and some are not. (Some are negative).





Why did Samson lose his power as Delilah cut his hair? Again it's symbolic tale. Samson represents you, and me. The hair represents the spiritual power, which grows out of the higher mind. When this power is cut away by the emotions (lower nature) represented by Delilah, we then lose the inherent divine power or common sense that enables us to overcome our enemies. (Our Negative THOUGHTS).




So now with that out of the way, remember, as you read the rest of this book, when making reference to any religious teachings such as the bible, it's all symbolism, not literal. Ill give the interpretations of some scriptures and other Bible stories through out this book.

A person I knew quit lifting weights. Because he read in the bible that the meek shall inherit the earth, meek means kind in spirit, humble, and the power from above, it has nothing to do with strong bodies and muscles.




If this is the case then, no weight lifters, no men who work hard and who have built all the buildings and roads of the earth who by the very nature of their work, put quite a few muscles on their bodies, can go to heaven. Do you see the fallacy of this kind of mis-understanding. God gave you a body, to use it, thats why we have muscles.



Reading spiritual things literally, can ruin your life, at least you will go through life, not knowing the great truths meant for you to have, and have a distorted view of Gods creation. I see through a glass but darkly said Paul, one who cannot see the truth, sees through a glass but darkly.



" After many flashes of lightning a thunder bolt will fall"




V

THE LAW OF VIBRATION

"Everything in the Universe vibrates, everything moves"


The law of vibration, embodies the truth that motion is manifest through out the Universe-everything is vibrating and has its own frequency. From the tiniest particle to the Galaxy and Universe, in space all is in motion. Each has its own rate of frequency, the higher the vibration the faster the development, the lower the slower the development.




Modern science has proven that all we call matter are but "modes of vibratory motion" every color of the spectrum has its own particular frequency, thought is also vibration, words spoken are but vibrations created by the vocal chords.




The human brain and body are emitters of the entire spectrum of waves or frequencies; each organ of the body has a distinct frequency, as well as each type of bacteria and parasite on earth.



The Chinese have been healing the body for thousands of years with herbs, since it was known that certain herbs had a corresponding rate of vibration to a certain organ of the body, administering the right herb will restore the vibration of that particular organ.




Royal Raymond Rife, the inventor of the most powerful microscope in the world, and his famous Rife generator discovered scientifically that each form of life had its own frequency, after twenty years of research discovered the rate of frequencies for many viruses, bacteria and parasites, cancer and other diseases.



And that these diseases could be irradiated from the body, by administering the proper frequency and current to the body. He published his works and was praised by the medical community and even the government, newspapers wrote articles on him as well as magazines of the day.



The US Government asked Mr. Rife to build one of his devices for them. The AMA, and FDA heard of Rifes work, and shortly thereafter his lab in San Diego was destroyed and all his papers burned, he and his colleagues all died mysteriously. You can read his story on the internet, just type in his name on your favorite search engine.




Two men NICOLA TESLA and ROYAL RAYMOND RIFE gave the world knowledge of vibration that has been unsurpassed to this day. These men proved what the ancients were saying, what hermetic philosophy stated thousands of years ago, that everything has its own rate of frequency and that everything is in a vibratory state.




And if any man could master its use could control his own destiny and move the universe. Consider that Nicola Tesla who headed project Rainbow, the (Philadelphia Experiment); where three Tesla coils caused a US Navy Ship to disappear, Literally in the 1940's Both of these men died with knowledge of vibration we may never know about.




"Coulombs law" states that positive attracts negative electricity and vice versa, but positive repels positive, and negative repels negative. And these forces extend to infinity in space and time. So Marconi meant it when he said every word ever spoken could be recovered if we knew how to tune in to it.




Marconi, as well as Tesla and Rife were ahead of their time as scientists. Tesla died with secrets of vibration he purposely withheld from the world for fear they would be used for its destruction.




Nicola Tesla, who probably understood the laws of vibration better than any other man, declared that he could, with a device that could be slipped into his trouser pocket, cause the Empire State Building in New York to disintegrate and fall apart.




(As a matter of fact a prototype once left unattended a few minutes on his laboratory table in his New York city home, in that short time ceilings began to fall and windows break all over the neighborhood.) IN THE EIGHTEEN NINETIES. To say that Tesla was ahead of his time would be an understatement.




Even the United States Government has failed to discover it's secret in these many years spent analyzing Tesla's life's work. Tesla destroyed the device and burned all his notes, in fear of mans evil intent if he were to get hold of it. He was no doubt right.




The mind of man has a particular rate of vibration. Everything exists within a certain bandwidth of energy. No two vibrations in Creation are exactly alike.



"We are the selector or dial of the frequency we elect to send forth into the ether, by means of our spiritual advancement and every day thoughts. In order to change our frequency to a higher bandwidth, so our brains will vibrate at a higher octave, we must change the way we think and the things we say. With the understanding of this Universal law, we may see why so many of us are not successful in life. Let me explain.




Consider an old tube and filament short-wave radio, you are moving the bandwidth knob or dial trying to tune into a station, some stations are fading and your hear cross interference from other weak signals, so you keep moving the dial until you here a strong signal, then you fine tune with the bandwidth dial until you get the clearest possible sound from your radio.




A short-wave radio of the superheterodyne type is capable of picking up signals from around the world with ease. These frequencies used in the shortwave and longwave spectrum are much higher frequencies than that of the am or fm, therefore capable of traveling much farther.



The circuitry of the short-wave radio is superior to that of ordinary radios, especially those of the superheterodyne type. The higher the frequency the higher the vibratory rate, The farther it travels.




Where am I leading with all of this radio talk? Your brain works the same way, your brain has two glands that act as sending and receiving stations just like the radio. The Pituitary Gland is the sending part and the pineal gland is the receiver.



The Pineal Gland is located at the third eye level in the middle of your forehead, but actually rests towards the back of the head. It is also called the single eye. These are well known facts to the learned student of higher knowledge.









Rene Descartes of France; is the father of modern philosophy. He said the place in the human brain where God meets us is the Pineal Gland. The bodies light receptor. Do you suppose that Mr. Descartes was qualified to make that statement two hundred years ago. And then there's JACOB in the book of Genesis: Genesis 32:30 he said "I have seen God face to face and I call the place Peniel."




LUKE 11:34 The light of the body is in the eye; therefore when thine eye be single thy whole body is full of light. The third eye or Pineal gland is where you meet God face to face, this is the land of milk and honey described in the Bible, you see the whole Bible is nothing more than a mind book, a book about the human brain, and how to find Heaven. "look not lo here nor lo there for the Kingdom of heaven is within" "It is not I that doeth the works but the Father within" Jesus Christ.




I think we have enough evidence now; let him hear who hath ears; let him see who has a single eye. The kingdom of Heaven is within, so meditate on the third eye and meet god in the land of Peniel (Pineal). God is not in your church folks, he's not out at the corner drug store, he's not to be seen with the two physical eyes, he's waiting in the mind of beholder in the land of Peniel.




But only if the higher vibration is met, when you find fault, cast blame, hold grudges and resentment, not only will it cause your blood proteins to become trapped, causing you serious illness in the physical body. But you have lowered the vibration of the Pineal gland and it stops receiving communication from Universal Mind.




Jesus taught that "you can not serve two masters, that is you can not serve God and Mammon at the same time. If you find fault, cast blame, harbor anger, hold grudges and think ill things to befall on your fellow man, you are serving mammon and you are inhibiting your signals from ever leaving your Pituitary Gland, remember the Pituitary gland is the sending unit it's not that god doesn't listen, it is that your signal isn't getting through.




The vibration is lower than the one you are trying to tune to. So you can not send or receive, some people would like to say well god isn't listening to me anymore, I pray all the time but I get no answers.




Lets see if I can explain this a little better; consider any electrical power plant, that produces the power that you use everyday to light your home. This power comes from the main power grids in your local, where several power plants are responsible for producing the power and putting it on the grid.




The current running through these wires is of a determined amount set by the local utility company, the current and voltage changes at times but the frequency does not, it has to remain at sixty cycles or hertz.



If sixty cycles is not maintained by a particular plant, it trips off the grid and their unit spins down, a relay responsible for the protection of their generator is what actually causes the generator to break from the grid, in this case over or under frequency.



Once they bring their generator back up to speed usually 3600 rpm, the frequency of the generator must be matched with that of the main grid, via the governor control, if this frequency is not matched, the operator can not close the breaker to send power to the grid.




But finally matching the frequency, the auto control closes the breaker of the power plants generator and now by means of the governor, the plant can start loading up the generator and start sending megawatts to the main grid.




All power stations work this way, whether nuclear, coal fired, diesel or gas turbine driven generators. The 60-hertz on the grid remains constant and can not change. It is up to each individual plant to maintain the proper voltage, current and frequency.




Consider that God has a particular rate of vibration that is outside the range of human comprehension, and consider that this frequency never changes, just like that of the power grid, it is always constant, it has to be because it is Law.




If each of us is like the individual power plant that has to match the frequency to get on the grid, then it is up to each one of us to raise our frequency, so that we may close the breaker and be on Gods grid.




Once this is accomplished, one can said to truly be communicating with God. Jesus said" In him we live, move and have our being". In what, in this sea of electrons and protons, Photons, the mind of God at it's own particular rate of vibration.


That's why the Bible says, " God is knocking on your door, let him that listens, let him in." It's all bout frequency (vibration). Only pure thoughts will raise your vibration to the level necessary to get on the grid, and only negative thoughts will keep your vibration lower, so that your breaker cannot close.




Once you are at the higher frequency and communicating with Universal Mind (God), if you have a negative thought during this communicating period, you will become out of phase and your breaker will open.



This is why the bible says "we fall short of the glory of God every day." It is very difficult for most people never to think or say anything negative about someone else or have doubts and fears; That's why Jesus said turn away from sin, he meant don't think about your negative thoughts because they are stopping you from aligning with the Father. So you ask for forgiveness, then move on.




It is believed by many students of metaphysics, that every thought you have had is impressed on the ether with your vibration signature, or held somewhere in the cosmos, a mirror image of your thoughts, a little scary when you think about it, every thought you and I have had is waiting somewhere, to be received by someone else. Now we know why it's so important to guard our thoughts.




All of the Laws are built on the creative thought, for all is mind. We use the Law to sub create our own reality, by thoughts and words. Everything in the Universe exists because some intelligent being has acted upon it consciously, and brought about the effect or manifestation you see, but the cause was the thought.




Thought waves when properly concentrated and directed can control infinite energy flows of the Universe. We can invariably create and destroy as we choose by way of our thoughts.




So if you wish your signal to be heard, you must begin by blessing those that curse you, and doing good to those that hate you, and love your enemies. Rightful thoughts about others will not only keep you from getting sick, it will allow proper operation of your transmitter and receiver, insuring your thoughts are getting through to Universal Mind, and insuring an inflow of knowledge to your subconscious mind.




Answers to questions, ideas for a business, words for a song, whatever it is you have asked for. This is the Kingdom of God. The Bible calls the Kingdom of God sowing and reaping, having the thought is sowing the seed and seeing the manifestation is the reaping.




You are the selector of the frequency you desire. Free will is the modulator, you can modulate your life to whatever you want it to be, take away the vibration that modulates you downward and add those which modulate you upward. The power is achieved as simply as that.



Evil thoughts lower your vibratory rate, and good thoughts raise it. Lying, cheating, stealing and other forms of wrong-ness are negative vibrations and prohibit the higher vibration and alignment. You combine with what you vibrate to.




If you are vibrating to injustice and resentment you will meet it on the pathway, at every step. Any destructive, incompatible, and inharmonious thought radiation attempting to leave the brain and consciousness of one individual to reach another meets with an instant frequency lock and repulsion and immediate dissolution.



It's powers neutralized by the Universal Mind, and the evil thoughts make their way to the ether with your vibratory imprint, where it stays ready to enter the mind of another with the same frequency.




It is also forced back to the individual immediately into his conscious mind causing trapped proteins and causing physical as well as mental illness. Any individual attempting to transmit any evil thoughts will instead fall victim to his own transmission by way if his own folly.








So beautiful are the workings of Gods Laws you can now understand why his justice system reins supreme and is LAW. All of this knowledge is hidden in the parables of the Bible and taught by every mystic school of thought in the world.




"it is done to you as you asked said Jesus, but only if you are aligned with Universal mind."


Or put another way




CALIBRATING OUR THINKING OR THE MIND AS A RADIO



Carrier Waves



Just as a radio picks up many carrier frequencies, so can our minds. We are aware that different radio stations carry different programming, and we choose the programs that we want to listen to. However, we are not aware that we can also choose different ?channels? in our minds.



Kilowatts of the radio station determine the clarity, consistency, and distance of the transmitted message. The mind also has something comparable to kilowatts within its mechanism, which are the pituitary gland (sixth chakra) and the pineal gland (seventh chakra).




When these chakras and glands are programmed to pick up only messages from the third dimension, our mind is like an AM radio. AM is amplitude modulation, therefore those messages with the greatest amplitude (loudness) are the ones that will be clearest and most apt to be consciously perceived via our five physical senses.




AM and FM



The pituitary and pineal glands (the sixth and seventh chakra) allow the switch from AM (amplitude modulation) to FM (frequency modulation). A FM radio is a metaphor for receiving messages from the dimensions above the third dimension.



With frequency modulation, the messages are received on the different octaves of carrier waves that come from the different dimensions. The pituitary gland (sixth chakra) acting alone can receive messages from the fourth dimension and up to the threshold of the fourth dimension. In order to receive messages from the fifth dimension and above, the crown chakra must be open.




Once the rising Kundalini has joined the essence of the pituitary gland (sixth chakra) with that of the pineal gland (seventh chakra), the Third Eye can be fully opened and activated. Then our perceptions become expanded to encompass the fifth dimension and beyond.



Our pineal gland receives messages from the higher dimensions via the crown/seventh chakra and then sends them on to the pituitary gland. The pituitary gland can then "project" this message onto the mind screen of the Third Eye so that our visions can be consciously perceived with our inner senses.



Inter-dimensional communication




In order for us to be consciously active in this inter-dimensional communication, we need to have at least opened our sixth chakra through meditation and other spiritual practices.



Then when the "lotus blossom" of the seventh chakra is awakened, there is a biochemical release within the physical brain as the pineal and pituitary glands simultaneously release their hormones. These hormones combine and interact within the cavities of the third ventricle in the innermost cavity of the physical brain to combine the essence of the crown and brow chakras to open the Third Eye.




PINEAL GLAND



The pineal gland is cone shaped and is located in the middle of the brain behind and just above the pituitary gland. The pineal gland contains pigment similar to that found in the eyes and is connected to the optic thalami, hence it controls the action of light upon our body.



The pineal gland is located in the posterior end of the third ventricle of the brain and the pituitary gland is located in the roof of the third ventricle. It is said that the joining of the essences of these two glands in the third ventricle is what opens the Third Eye.



When the external world disappears, our circle of consciousness contracts because our primary attention is focused upon our inner self. It is this inner attention that magnetizes? spiritual light? into the pineal gland.




Revelation, and all its groupings of seven,
has primary importance as referring to the human chakra system.




It appears that nearly every esoteric and mystical teaching features this knowledge in some form, and the knowledge of the Essene sect that fathered Jesus? development would be no different.



Thus, according to Cayce,




The opening of the seven seals in Revelation was a metaphor for the expanding energy that causes an awakening of the seven human chakras.




This sudden energy shift also causes dramatic physical changes on the Earth.



The uses of the value of seven in Revelations as a possible metaphor for the chakras are extensive.



This is a metaphor for Jesus, the lamb, with his seven chakras awakened and able to see clearly.

LAW of THE SPOKEN WORD

"Life and death are in the power of the tongue"

"Guard thy words with diligence"

"You can retrieve an arrow you have shot, but not on e word you have spoken"



Jesus said; "I say unto you that every idle word that men shall speak, they give account thereof in the day of judgment, for by thy word thou shalt be justified, and by thy word thou shalt be condemned."




Judgement day does not come at the end of the world folks. We are judged everyday by the act of Cause and Effect, and through the Laws we have previously studied. If you take a look at where you are today you can see if you have sown good seeds or bad seeds.




Have you attracted happiness or have you attracted disaster in your life. The mental picture you make while speaking impresses the subconscious mind and works on the super conscious or Universal Mind, to bring about the outcome.




Th power of the tongue is a literal scientific fact. The spoken word is the means whereby the thought vibrations are directed into the mind of God. (in him we live, move and have our being). All those who know of the power of words, guard their words carefully. One has only to watch the reaction of his words to know that they do not return void.




The biggest mistakes are made when one is angry and resentful, has doubts and fears and owing to the Law of vibration; by your words you attract the same vibration you have sent out to the Universe. People who continually speak of disease, eventually attract disease, in accordance with the Law of Attraction.



"life and death are in the power of the tongue." Words, how could it be that mere words have such power? The power to completely turn ones life up side down? Because of mans ignorance of the power of the spoken word, and misuse of it.




Everything we think, and every word we speak, is the rudder of the ship bringing us to port or starboard or straight ahead on course.




By the nature of God himself being able to create an entire Universe complete with life forms by using word, then by the Law of Correspondence, "so below. So above", Man was given the same power. Not in the sense that could create a Universe, but within the limits of the Earth plane we could use word to create things for the good of mankind.




But we are warned against the dangers of the misuse of word. Words have more power than modern atomic weapons, more people have been destroyed because of the misuse of words than all other causes in the world put together. Consider if every person from Kings to the commoner said only kind words to one another and cared about the others state, there would be no wars, no killing, there would only be peace.




All of the suffering of the people on every corner of the earth is brought about by mans ill thinking and misuse of WORDS. Brought about by their ignorance of Gods Laws, by their fears, by their envy, by their prejudices and by their insecurities, greed and lust for power, the EGO.




Proverbs 15-1 " Soft answers turneth away wrath; the tongue of the wise useth the knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness." Proverbs 15-4 " A wholesome tongue is the tree of life."




Matthew 12-36-37 " But I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou are justified and by thy words thou shalt be condemned."




Proverbs 18-20-21 "A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled; Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and they that love it, shall eat the fruit there of."




Proverbs 10-11 "The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life." 12-13 "The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble." 13-2 "A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence." 25-23 " The north wind driveth away rain: so doth an angry countenance; a back biting tongue."




As you can see there are many verses in the Christian bible giving reference to the power of speech. This same knowledge can be found in the Buddhist scriptures as well as many of the great religions of the world. Make no mistake about it, the words that you speak out of your mouth literally shape your destiny in this world. This is the gift of the Creator, that man shall have power by means of his tongue.








Another way words can kill




A story comes to mind of a woman whom was diagnosed with having cancer, after all the tests were completed, the Doctor had her sit across the other side of his desk while he sat behind the desk, the woman Couldn't stand the suspense any more and asked the doctor What was the prognosis?




The Doctor gave a long sigh and said I'm afraid you have acute lymphoma and it is very advanced, the woman asked what are you saying? Am I going to die or what, and the doctor said well with luck you can live six months but there's no guarantee.



The woman left the office in dismay and panic, confused and afraid. The Doctor had just sentenced her to death and proclaimed her death sentence perhaps without even realizing it. The woman died four months later. Did the Dr. kill her with words? Lets see if it could be.




The key to understanding how the Dr. may have aggravated the situation to the point of killing the woman, is found in the fact that all our cells communicate with each other electrically, and when the woman's ears heard the words by the Dr. these words were registered by every cell in her body in a micro second, and if the woman being weak of mind allowed those words to penetrate her spirit, her cells had given up fight the moment she accepted the Drs words. Notice I said the moment she accepted those words.




Lets consider what might have happened if the Doctor would have approached her differently and changed his words to her. Suppose he had said something like this: Elizabeth you have acute Lymphoma, but don't worry too much, it isn't that bad, besides you are very strong and I believe you have a better than average chance of beating this, and with some new advances in medicine and radiation treatment you should be fine. Lets schedule some treatment sessions and get you on the road to recovery.




The words now spoken by the Doctor were words of hope, words that were received by every cell in her body, these cells are now busy after just having had a pep talk with coach in the locker room, and are doing their job with renewed hope. Your cells are part of you and respond to your thoughts, fears, likes, dislikes and so on. Make no mistake about this.




When people hear that their thoughts and words take the form of radio frequencies and do not return void, they say; "oh is it really that easy?" people like things difficult and hard to understand. You can now give and receive abundant blessings by action of your words. Master the use of this knowledge and change your life forever, as well as those around you.

VII

LAW of ATTRACTION



"In the physical word, like poles repel each other, unlike poles attract each other" In the subatomic world, Like attracts Like. In the physical world like poles repel each other, and unlike poles attract each other.





A magnet of north pole will attract the south pole of another magnet, so do electrons attract protons. Similar poles of magnets repel each other, as well as similar charges of electricity. "In the subatomic or spiritual realm, like attracts like,This means a positive force will repel a negative force what ever we project will attract a similar energy.




We have the power to attract to us what we want and repel that which we don't want. Thoughts the form of the spiritual (magnetic) nature of man, and are electrical and each one has a distinct frequency; therefore, all those that are attuned to the same vibratory rate and frequency contain similar aspects, attracting each other."




When we through our thoughts claim something, we attract it to ourselves. This sets up the opposite, law of repulsion, which acts as a barrier and repels that which is unlike our original thought. Attraction always brings to us our own, because this is a Universal Law.



Negative thoughts will attract negative influences, and positive thoughts will attract positive influences. Carry any kind of thought you please about with you, and so long as you retain it, no matter how you roam over land or sea, you will unceasingly attract to yourself. Knowingly or inadvertently, exactly and only what corresponds to your own dominant thought vibration.




Do good to those who hate you; is based on a scientific fact and a natural law. So, to do good is to bring to yourself all the elements of good. To do evil is to bring contrary destructive elements. When we consider this self preservation will make its stop all evil thought, Those who live by hate, will die by hate. That is, those who live by the sword, will die by the sword.



Every evil thought is a sword drawn on the person to whom it is directed. If a sword is drawn in return, so much the worse for both. If you have doubt, fear, hatred, resentment, envy or any other un pure thought, you will attract that same vibration to you from the universal Mind, just as sure as flowers attract bees.



The law of attraction is service. We receive in proportion to what we give out. You cannot receive good while expecting evil, you cannot have plenty while looking for poverty. "Blessed is he that expecteth much, for verily his soul shall be filled.- It was outlined by Solomon when he said:"



There is that scattereth, and increasith yet more; And there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth only to want. The liberal soul shall be made fat; And he that watereth shall be watered also himself."



We usually receive in far greater proportion than we give out under this law. With the knowledge of attraction in our life we will be able to attract to us anything of our desire. It also might be worth mentioning that under this law as long as your vibrations or frequency is of higher a nature, none of the lower vibrations in the ether may effect you.




These things are very real and you should be able to see how they work, because the laws are neutral, the sender of such negative vibrations will be subject to the same. They cannot effect the pure mind, or higher vibration. Like attracts like, if no evil thoughts are harbored, none can come in. It's a quantum fact.



Shinn: law of the spoken word



"If on the journey of life a man cannot find one who is better or at least as good as himself, let him joyfully travel alone. A fool cannot help him on his journey"Guardian



VII

THE LAW OF CAUSE AND EFFECT

"Every cause has its effect; every effect has its cause; everything happens

according to law; nothing escapes the law"



So perfect is the workings of this Intelligence that it has embodied in the Universe it created, Laws that govern everything in its creation, God is no respecter of persons if you break one of the Laws the Universal will act upon you and there is no escape from these Laws. There is no referee keeping track of all your thoughts, words you say and things you do, instead, the "Universal Law of' Cause and Effect and the laws of vibration are in action here.



What is the Law of Cause and Effect? It simply means that for every cause there will be an effect it is that timeless old saying you've heard before, "What goes around comes around, Jesus Said "You Reap What You Sow," no matter what you call it, it is one of the most fundamental of all Universal Laws and is not to be taken lightly, this law has been taught by every great Religion, Metaphysical teaching and philosophy in the world and there is as much truth in it as any discovered law of science. It is the law that states, " For every action, there is a reaction."




For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This law embodies the fact that there is a Cause for every Effect; an Effect from every Cause. " Everything happens according to law" that nothing ever " merely happens"; that there is no such thing as chance; the masses of people arc carried along, obedient to environment; the wills and desires of others stronger than themselves; heredity; suggestion; and other outward causes moving them about like pawns on the chessboard of life.



But the masters rising to the plane above dominate their moods, characters, qualities, and powers, as well as the environment surrounding them, and become Movers instead of pawns. They use the law instead of being its tools.




The masters obey the Causation of the higher planes but they help to rule on their plane. In this statement there is a wealth of knowledge; let him read who can.




Once we have set a series of actions in motion the law says they must continue to their conclusion, which will occur sooner or later, but it is certain. We cannot change that which we have already caused and are awaiting the effect but we can change the future by the cause in the now this moment.



We have free will and are subject to the changing patterns of our thoughts, emotions and consequent future actions. It is never to late to change the pattern or effect in ones life. Thought in action is the primary cause.




That which we convey in our thoughts words and actions is what we will receive in reactions. Most of us have not mastered this law as evident of our world, by the conditions of poverty and wars. When was the last time you can honestly say you had no ill thoughts in your mind towards another'?



That's what I thought, If you are to master the law of cause and effect you must control your thoughts and words. Action and reaction or compensation is worked out to the infinite degree in vibratory rate so when we create a negative thought, the balance is upset and a negative reaction occurs.




Cause and Effect exacts an equal degree through interaction. It is one thing to be intelligent by acquiring knowledge; it is another to use intelligence by acquiring Wisdom to control its actions and reactions. Like attracts like under this law, bad or evil thoughts bring back a similar Effect likewise good or positive thoughts , bring back good and positive vibrations the Effect.




Consider a man maybe a preacher of the Christian religion he is a godly man, he preys reverently every day and has many followers, and all praise him, suddenly he becomes Inflicted with a serious disease cancer maybe, and he die, people will say but he was a good man, a godly man, why did God take his life?




God did not take his life suppose no one knew he smoked two packs of cigarettes a day or that he ate foods high in protein salt and sugar, and other foods loaded with chemicals and the water he had drunk most of his life was fluoridated and chlorinated, it has already been proven that all of these things or a combination of these will cause cancer.



God did not take the preachers life, the Law of Cause and Effect was in action, God is no respecter of persons, he broke certain Laws of Health which was the cause, and that which brought about his death was the effect.




Dr. Samuel West in his book (The Golden Seven Plus One) tells us that "when we harbor anger, cast blame, find fault, hold grudges and resentment, it will cause your blood proteins to become trapped and cause serious illness to your body. In his book Dr. West states that the underlying cause of all disease known to man is Trapped Blond proteins," and has scientifically proven it.



This law is called " The Law of Peace," and with the knowledge that anger, loss of temper, holding grudges, and resentment can trap your blood proteins and cause sickness and disease, we now know that we must be able to love our enemies. This scientifically proves that the Laws of Health are the Laws of Peace and the Laws of Sickness and death are the Laws of War.




Dr. West says that "with the knowledge of our blood proteins we find the key to Health and Peace! It is also the knowledge that will help restore our freedoms." God rules by the Laws of Free Agency and plays no favorites.



We must love our enemies and bless those who curse us, lest we trap our own blood proteins and fail prey to sickness. Vengeance is mind said the Lord; this statement is true, because anyone who wills harm to another by thoughts or words, will be subject to the Law of Cause and Effect, which no one can escape.




Unlike the justice system of man whereby a man can commit a crime and through stick talking attorneys, may be acquitted, Gods justice system is perfect simple and just. it reins supreme because it is gods Law.




It is also true that when you have good thoughts towards others and say good things not only are you preventing your own blood proteins from becoming trapped, but since the cause was rightful thinking and rightful Words you will be rewarded in the form of something good and positive in your life ten fold, and that is the effect.



Like wise all negative thoughts and words act against you ten fold. Rightful thoughts and words bring back positive results. and evil or negative thoughts and words bring the same back to you. This is The Law of Attraction, which says, Like Attracts Like. Again as reminder "You Reap What You Sow.



"Those who master the proper use of this law, truly control their own destinies"


" An empty cart makes more rattle"

" It's not what goes in a mans mouth that defileth him, but what comes out"

THE LAW of THE SUB-CONSCIOUS

"Gautama the Buddha said-the mind is everything; what you think you become"



When we think of thought, that thought is transmitted to all the cells of the body. Thus they are impelled to act as we wish according to the thought. If we wish to raise an arm the entire process, from the thought conception to the execution is almost simultaneous and is automatic so far as the arm is concerned.



That is to say as long as the arm is not damaged and all the muscles and tendons are intact, the arm follows the will of the sub-conscious without question, the arm does not ask are you sure you want me to move, it moves according to the command given it.




The communication needed to carry out this order is almost incomprehensible, but with the knowledge that our cells are electrical generators and that the cells communicate with one another electrically via the sympathetic nervous system, we can better understand the process of communication, but that the actual power which impels the vasometer system of the body, is the subconscious mind.



When we lie down and go to sleep we are inert and dead, as far as the conscious mind is concerned. The conscious mind has relaxed its action; it has no control over the bodily functions. However, the heart goes on beating, the blood stream courses through the arteries and veins; the kidneys, liver and spleen continue to function.




The power that directs the continuous activity of the involuntary organs is the sub-conscious mind, working through the sympathetic nervous system. What is the sub-conscious mind'? The sub-conscious mind is the Universal intelligence, God-power within our selves. The sub-conscious is the Divine intelligence which impregnates the body with the vita! elements that give it power, health and development.




The subconscious is a variable storehouse of knowledge. If provides the conscious mind with resources for utilization in the conscious body. The conscious mind sews the seeds, which grow in the subconscious. The subconscious never forgets.



The impulses, thoughts and desires to which you give expression, though they may not be expressed verbally, are retained in the subconscious. Thus you find yourself reacting easily or without effort, as the case may be, ideas which may have occurred to you years ago, dreams that you did not remember for several weeks after you had dreamed them, scenes which were visualized for but a fleeting moment. Dates, incidents, names etc., are automatically filed in the subconscious mind.



Nothing is ever forgotten by the subconscious mind, and when the conscious mind has need of certain information, the subconscious mind hands it over.




"All minds are one, and the energies forming matter are a part of it likewise. The ALL-MIND is known as the Almighty, Creator, and God. It controls the Universe. While each person, animal and plant is part of the ALL-MIND, the conscious individuality is not controlled by it to the extent of interference in the affairs of the consciousness. It can suggest, guide, or direct, but it cannot control. The individual conscious thought force is the primary activity, or directive force."



The conscious mind is the master and subconscious mind is the slave, bowing down to every affirmation you give it with your conscious mind. The subconscious mind is likened to a garden, where you may plant what ever you want, and watch it grow and unfold. You grow in the garden of your mind what you want by action of your conscious mind, which is the gardener.



The thoughts you plant in your subconscious today will be the thoughts growing in it tomorrow, if You plant weeds you will get weeds. If You plant roses you will get roses, Due to the Law of attraction it can be said that the mental attitude we take toward anything, determines its effect upon us.



In your subconscious mind lies the world you would have, the world you make, the house you live in, the state and city which you reside are all the result of thoughts.




Metaphysicians and psychologists the world over agree that the mind is everything. You create you heaven or hell within your own mind. This is exactly what Jesus taught. He said each one of us could become God like, and greater things than I you can do, He said!



Your conscious mind is the doorman or guard to the temple of you subconscious mind, nothing gets by without the permission of the consciousness, except for things sensed by your five senses. All other impressions come from the conscious mind. Once you impress on the subconscious mind something, the guard closes the door and never lets it out, you see it's a one way door.



Impressions check in, but they never check out. So what ever is in there, is in there for good. In order for this dual relationship of the conscious and the sub conscious mind to work like a well oiled machine, you, which is to say your conscious mind must let only positive impressions passed the guard.




You can't expect a ball team to have harmony and play well if the pitcher and catcher are at odds with each other. Likewise you can't expect good results from your subconscious if your conscious is full of worry, fear, anxiety, resentment and other negative impressions.




The subconscious does not know what it wants, it's only the medium, the computer disk or storage cabinet. The subconscious mind does not reason inductively. It only assembles what you have put in it, and it gives you back exactly that which you allowed to pass by the guard. If your subconscious is full of negative impressions it's time to fire that lazy temple guard, and hire a new one.



What we really need is a bouncer, then we would be all right, then we could get rid of any negative impression any time, if it proved not to be of any good use to us, but there are none to be found, so the guard is our only hope. Maybe if we give him a pay raise he'll do a better job.




The reality is you are that temple guard, your temple should be guarded like the holiest of Moslem mosques, like a Kings palace, like the forbidden city of old China, like Hirohito himself, because your subconscious mind is your most precious and most valuable resource.




You subconscious mind receives intelligence from the life farce around you and can transmit this to other people at a distance with no boundary. It can heal others at a distance with ease. The subconscious restores the tissues of the body continuously, replacing cells, regulating heart beat and breathing. It's a great force of power, but like a hurricane it can bring swift destruction.



It can be your servant or your master. To think the sub-conscious mind does this all by itself without some higher source of power, is like believing that the lowest rung on the ladder in hell, is reserved for those who think they are going to hell, if they don't believe in hell it's preposterous and ludicrous. Your subconscious knows things that were never printed in a book, nor ever heard from your ears.




Not to master the forces of the subconscious mind, makes one like the squirrel going round and round in one of those wheels going nowhere fast. To achieve control over what goes in your temple is to gain Health, success and happiness. (as a man thinketh so is he) is a very real statement. In fact this is an absolute truth!



Consider that you have a closet that you use to store things, you put something in there, next week you put something else in there and so on year after year, then one day you open it up and you notice there is a lot of junk that you haphazardly through in there thinking you would use it some day.




So you clean it out and discard that which you don't want, reorganize it and close the door. Well unfortunately you can't perform this same operation on the subconscious , because you can't take stuff out, but you can do something almost as good.




You plant a seed, maybe a tomato seed, the seed knows nothing of itself, yet it sprouts and sends roots downward into the soil while the plant springs upward pointing to the sky, seemingly overcoming the forces of gravity bringing forth tomatoes.




Jesus said "consider the lilies of the field the toil not, neither do they spin, yet Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of those." The Universal Intelligence, God, All, Infinite living mind or what ever you want to call it, is all around you as evident by all you see.




Since you can't treat the subconscious like a trip to the flea market, where you can get rid of some stuff you don't want, you have to do the next best thing. If you will liken your temple to a garden, that is picture it as a garden where you can go and plow the soil and fertilize it and get some seeds ready to plant in your new garden.



The seeds of fear, worry, anger, resentment, 1 cant, 1 hope, I wish, I'm not worthy, I'm not a good person, I can never have all those things I want, or life's not worth living and all other negative (evil ) weeds that are growing in their now must be crowded out by some beautiful flowers that will spring forth in your new garden.




Your new garden is a plot of land right next to the old one, where you will now start sowing seeds of beauty, like, I can, I will , I forgive all who have wronged me, I forgive myself, I hold no grudges toward no man, I realize the higher power and look for it's life force in my life, I can achieve any goal I set, I am not limited any more by anything, I will have all 1 want and dream about it will come to pass and 1 have absolute faith in it. Faith is the stone, you must believe it.




A, faithful daily declaration of these new seeds will eventually overshadow those evil weeds and bring forth beautiful flowers of self confidence, assurance and love. Authorities claim it takes about twenty two days to bring forth flowers from the newly planted seeds. But you must proclaim them mentally and verbally at least fifteen minutes each day and think about them all day while working, or whatever it is that you do.




Continue to mentally walk around in your garden and pluck those weeds of worry and fear right out of the ground, and don't forget the rest of those buggers, the resentment, holding grudges one, that hate one, that I'm not worthy one, I'll try one, Maybe I can one, 1 hope so one and all the rest, once you have them gathered up and they are in your little bucket, go over and find a little piece of clear ground empty them out, pour some spirits on them and light them and then watch them burn up, all the time hearing them scream and squeal.




Once this is done work the ashes back into the soil where you planted your new flower seeds, put some water on and let them grow. Walk through your garden doing this as often as you can whenever you have free time, try and find a quiet place where you can close your eyes while doing it. Since you know better exactly what manner of weeds you have in your own temple, add to the above list and get them all.




This will start to raise your vibrations to the point where you will get more life force flowing through your Subconscious, at this point you will notice changes in your life, inspirations hunches and ideas come automatically from the infinite intelligence. People around you will also notice a more pleasant aura about you because the life force fills your body, you are now synchronized on the grid.




One thing you cannot do is anticipate, this will only block the flow, you must just do it and do not think about it, or say I wonder if this really working, or when am I going to notice a change, do not do this.



It will come naturally, don't force it, if you do you are letting you conscious mind get in the way, and he can't be trusted because he let some of those things in, in the first place. I will give a similar treatment for achieving goals and attracting money in chapter ten.



No disease can take hold of your bodies, unless it finds something corresponding to it, which makes it possible. And in the same way, no evil or undesirable condition of any kind can come into your lives unless there is already in your subconscious mind that which is of the same nature, then it is invited in.



Your particular kind of thought connects you with a similar order thought from without. People ruled by the mood of gloom attract to them gloomy things. People always discouraged and despondent do not succeed in anything, and live by only burdening someone else.








The hopeful, confident, and cheerful attract the elements of success. A woman at home shows her state of mind by her dress. Rags, tatters, and dirt are always in the mind before being on the body.



The thought that is most put out brings it's corresponding visible element to crystallize about you as surely and literally as the visible bit of copper in solution attracts to it the invisible copper in that solution.




In whatever thought vibrations you send out you will receive of unseen substance in correspondence with that vibration. It is as much a chemical law as a spiritual law. Chemistry is not confined to the elements we see.




The elements we do not see with the physical eye outnumber ten thousand times those we do see. And says another who speaks full well whereof he speaks: " The law of attraction works universally on every plane of existence, and we attract what ever we desire or expect." This is the law of the sub conscious mind. You are the sum total of every bit of information in your sub-conscious mind.



Francis schovel shinn



" Of what use is lamp to a blind man"




Your sub-conscious collection



Every great works ever written about the mind has taught that we are the sum total of every one we have had contact with, every word we have ever heard and everything we have seen with our eyes, in short everything our subconscious has absorbed by our six senses.



That is to say that we are a product of our environments, shaped and molded by outside stimuli whether good or bad. It is this collectiveness of all that are subconscious mind has recorded that makes each of us think the way we do, say the things we say, and do the things we do.



It has been said that most of us have been collecting a sea of negative input into our subconscious minds since we were born, every teacher, every clergyman, every coach, your parents, brothers, sisters, every person large or small, has impressed your sub-conscious mind.




If most of these people whom have impressed your subconscious mind have done so in a negative way, that is to say maybe, you were told as a child you were never going to amount to anything, or you can't do that no one has ever done that before, or your goals are to lofty, your stupid, your dumb, your an idiot, and a moron, I said no, yells your mother, get away from that TV, I'm watching Conrad, he's a hell of a detective, says your father. Kids who made fun of you when you were small.




All of this has been recorded by your subconscious, this then is your collection, a collection of mostly negative affirmations or engrams as L. Ron Hubbard said.



I call it Evil, because anything that keeps you from becoming successful in life, and not ever reaching the state of consciousness that allows you the freedom to fully express the Universal intelligence through your sub-conscious mind is EVIL. It doesn't mean that everything in your subconscious mind is negative, but the sad fact is that most of our programming has been in the form of negativity (EVIL).

HEALTH AND SPIRITUAL ALIGNMENT

THE SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM




The sympathetic nervous system is the medium between the subconscious mind and the physical body. The god force, spirit of life, flows through the sympathetic nervous system which controls and promotes the action of the involuntary organs.




Perfect health is perfect Harmony and perfect Harmony is God. If we lack health we lack harmony and hence we lack the God force. The spirit of God inhabits us only in proportion to our physical perfections and condition of health. If we are in perfect health we are setting ourselves up for the God force to flow through us in more abundance, but health is only one of the prerequisites. we will discuss the other later.




God is not, according to the traditional conception a being who sits in royal state upon a golden throne and administers rewards to the just and punishment to the wicked. God or Universal intelligence is within ourselves, and we create our own HEAVEN or HELL. As I have already stated earlier, there are Laws that govern the Universe and it is these Laws that we must learn about and how to use them to our advantage, so that we may have riches and abundance in life.




When we have learned how to live and maintain a state of perfect health our minds become clear, keen and active; our bodies are purified, our vibrations are higher and we are brought closer with the Universal forces.




We acquire the insight and illumination to recognize, understand and use the God power within ourselves. We live in tune with the infinite. Those who pray in the synagogues and attend religious services, but give no heed to their state of health neglect their bodies and permit themselves to develop disease and become disordered, are only mentally conceiving the spirit of God.



They are not experiencing the benefits which may be derived from the use of God to its fullest extent. They have only a mental picture of Divinity. God does not dwell in ruined temples. There can be no sanctity in an unholy place, neither can there be any spirituality in a diseased body. There may be a mental desire for spirituality, but it cannot be ideally developed without the coordination and harmony of the physical body.




When the body is strong and vibrant, the mind is keen and the thoughts come freely and clearly; the spirit is predominant. Thoughts are living things, which can be photographed. This is an impressive fact, the contemplation of which should induce a resolve to guard our thoughts and control them, that they may be worthy ones and not the idle, shallow products of an undisciplined mind.




When the body is assailed by disease the strength is depleted, the mind is sluggish, the thoughts are slow in forming, and hazy and indefinite, proving that the spirit power is diminished and does not inhabit the Temple.




The great Subconscious force within us governs our every action. It supplies the motive for our conscious actions, and it controls our involuntary actions, When we are relaxed and sleeping, if the sub-conscious power stops we die at once.



The life forces cease to flow into the sympathetic nervous system which is the medium between the subconscious and the physical body, the heart stops beating. This brings us to the realization that the creator dwells directly within us. When our bodies become diseased and broken, they are finally condemned to die.




The spirit withdraws then, as we vacate a condemned house or building because it is no longer worthy to dwell in. The subconscious is one of the Trinity, The creators composite creation, the Spiritual, Mental and Physical.




There is no separation as so many people think. God is within us we are made in his image and likeness, and only when we defile that likeness by filling it with impurities is the Spirit driven from it. An awareness of this will allow you to fulfill your mission on earth.




The great trouble is that all teachings concerning Universal Intelligence or Divinity have to do with the mental only, with no thought for the physical. Divine Harmony is attained only through perfect coordination of the Trinity-Spiritual, Mental, and Physical.




When sickness and disease oppress us we have transgressed the Law of Peace. The physical then lacks proper adjustment and the influences which permit the Superior Intelligence to guide it.




We have no power of our own. All power comes to us from the Universal who works within us, and the more completely we comprehend this and perfect our physical bodies, the more expansive will be our development and government by the Universal within ourselves.




Our brain power, physical strength and spiritual comprehension will be unlimited because we shall be uniting all the forces at our command and achieving perfect equalization. For centuries we have groped blindly for the secret of life, seeking God, when all along the true living life force was ready to dwell in our bodies, overlooked, neglected and unheeded.




God is good; God is Love; God is ALL in ALL. God is Health; therefore to express God perfectly your body must be in a state of good health. Get in touch with God by building your body to use its fullest powers. Become a superman or super-woman.




To receive the full power of the subconscious it is essential that the body be kept healthy and vital so that the spirit forces may flow into the medium through which they control the body, namely the sympathetic nervous system.




Food



We are what we eat. As far as the physical is concerned, food is the link in the chain that connects the Divine and Spirit force within the body, namely: the raw food is the food designed by god, to keep perfect His image and likeness. It is Gods command that you should live on the fruits, herbs and seeds in the state he grew them, 100% for a 100% body.




Now lets us analyze it and see if it is so. The life force of the cooked food is destroyed in cooking, robbed of its vitamins and energy. Where there was 100% before being cooked, it has now lost from 40 to 90 percent of its nutritional value by being cooked. The energy you receive in this small amount of nutrition is not sufficient to carry off the poisons produced by the waste of the meal you have just eaten.



When the poisons from this meal are partially eliminated, your nerves cry out for the minerals they need to produce health, which can only be supplied in the raw food. Not having the necessary amount of these in the cooked foods you slowly become diseased.




In other words, you lack the live minerals in your food to attract the life force, which is spiritual to your body, which is physical. Life begets life, and death begets death; in other words only live uncooked food, which is full of life force can give you the life force your cells need so you can be truly healthy.




Have you ever asked yourself how the Life or God-force is attracted to your body? The raw food, cereals, vegetables, fruits and nuts are 100% nourishment in their natural state and contain the same minerals that the body is made up of.



These live minerals bring about a chemical and electromagnetic change in the body, that attracts and draws unto itself (the physical body) the magnetic power or God-force, through the Subconscious into the sympathetic nervous system and through this involuntary process the Spirit of life force is transmitted to all of the involuntary organs, and then in turn to the conscious mind and the voluntary parts of the body, there to be used for constructive or destructive action, according to the impressions of the conscious mind.








Reason this out for yourself and ask yourself if cooked food which is dead and robbed of its life-producing minerals, or anything else that is a corpse, has the power to attract anything unto itself, much less life.




There is no chance for an argument here except with a diseased and unbalanced mind. Those of you who have not known how to express God as He wished you to, in His name and likeness, which is Health, and are satisfied to pray and waste His time reading the bible with a blank mind and not trying to understand Him and analyze His beautiful and natural teachings, draw on your mental force and analyze His following words and see if you are living according to His teachings or not:



"And God said. behold, 1 have given you every herb bearing seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be , for meat."



"And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air. and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, 1 have given every green herb, for meat: and it was so." Genesis 1 29-30.




Purify the body by fasting. Build it and keep it in perfect health by eating Gods foods in their natural state. The physical will then vibrate Life , Energy and power, which constitute perfect health. God will then inhabit His temple and yours will be a long and blessed life free from disease.


A vibrant healthy body will bring you more in tune with Universal Intelligence.






THE POWER OF BREATH


All Disease Is Due To A Lack Of Complete Oxygenation.


"The breath has powers ye not know of"



A famous opera singer once said: "The staff of life is not bread, it is breath" No man woman or child can be said to be living unless he breathes deeply and correctly he is merely existing-he is not radiating vitality and energy he cannot, since he is getting only a minor percentage of the electrical charge necessary to enhance spiritual communication, and to energize all of the organs of the body, and bring the body to higher vibration.



Oxygen is the marvelous builder and purifier which envelopes us constantly but which we either overlook completely or give small heed to. To benefit completely from this element we have only to learn the simple secrets of correct breathing.




Rythmic breathing. The people of the far east, the Orientals, have for centuries practiced the art of deep breathing,, have known its wonderful physical benefits and experienced its spiritual and physic effects to such an extent that their mysterious occult rituals are entered upon through a preliminary phase of deep breathing which assists them in vibrating to a higher consciousness.




Brahman and Buddha gave their followers instructions in deep breathing, and the Hindu Yogis have used scientific breathing for generations. They designate this scientific breathing as rhythmic breathing.




The rhythm of the pulse is ascertained and they practice until the rhythm of the breath corresponds to that of the heartbeat. This rhythmic breathing brings the individual into the harmonious vibrations with nature and inherent powers, which have lain dormant within are gradually unfolded.



The controlled breath as taught and practiced by myself and thousands of followers cures and banishes fear, worry and the baser conditions. It lends poise and steady calm, which is conducive to self confidence and steadfastness of purpose.



Air is food, a life sustaining element the same as water, and while we can live for weeks without food, several months without water, we cannot live ten minutes without air.




No lasting, perfect health can be obtained without deep breathing. It is absolutely essential to long life, and keeping the mind sharp. Since it is oxygen that purifies the blood by entering the bloodstream, causing an explosion which forces out the poisonous gas, it is obvious that the blood cannot be thoroughly clarified unless sufficient oxygen is carried into the lungs to perfectly inflate them and reach every part of the lung tissue.



Disease only attracts unused lung tissue, a deep breather will not be found susceptible to every slight ailment or even worse cancer. Very few people draw a breath below the collar bone. Observe those about you in the car or theater. How many chests do you see rising, failing, with the even rhythm of the well regulated deep breather? Very few.




Life and death are literally in the breath: When God said "man must work all the days of his life, lest he die," he didn't mean at some job or service, he meant unless man continued to move his body, he would slowly die. Lets see if this is so:




The heart is the major organ used for life, it pumps the blood through the body, but it doesn't work alone, movement of the body, contracting of the muscles, arterial pulsations, and energy meridians also lend a hand in moving the blood through the body, the heart alone would be to strained to do this alone.




Did you know that if your immune system or ( lymphatic ) system stopped flowing through the body this moment, you would be dead in less than 24 hours, due to trapped blood proteins throughout the body. This is a scientific fact, Stated in Dr. Samuel West's book the Golden Seven Plus One.




The reason for this is that your Lymphatic system, which is your army of white blood cells, keeping all bacteria, viruses, poisons and blood proteins of the body in check, does not have a pump or motor force to move the Lymphatic fluid to every part of your body.




Are you ready for this; the lymphatic fluid only courses through the body when you breathe and or move your body, this is a scientific fact. The reason most people succumb to all manner of disease early in life is due to shallow breathing, because only deep breathing can cause the chest cavity to rise and fall enough to push against the thoracic duct, which forces the fluid through the body.



So in essence your body is like a self winding watch, it has to be moving and you have to be breathing lest he die. That's why God said man must work all the days of his life; lest he die. We can thank Dr. Shields of California, for producing the film "The Central Propulsion of Human Thoracic Duct Lymph."



This film erases all doubt as to what a person must do to actively move the lymphatic fluids. Unless we engage in an activity that causes us to breathe deeply, we will have trapped blood proteins in our bodies regardless of what else we may do.




There can be no disease with complete oxygenation of the tissues of the body. The body may starve for food, the cells will consume each other and eventually burn up, but if complete oxygenation is taking place, there will be no disease.



Oxygen is the Spirit force and where there is oxygen, there is Life, not Death. The life force enters into our whole being by the four essential functions of:



breathing, motion, thought, and food. Health consists of the equally balanced development of these vital expressions. Health is the normal and natural condition of life. People who practice deep breathing in the correct way are the possessors of strong lungs, elastic muscles, clear eyes and a well-balanced MIND. They are beautiful and SUCCESSFUL.



Learn to breathe properly every where you go."

Dr. Emanuel Estes: raw food and health

THE MODUS OPERANDI



We have discussed several Universal Truths handed down from a distant time, from Mystical teachings and from the bible . Although the chapters on the universal truths may seem short, there is a vast store house of knowledge in them.



I wanted to keep this little book short, concise and to the point, so the reading would not be long and laborious. The purpose of the chapter on health and deep breathing, [ believe was important because most books of this nature, never discuss it's importance regarding spiritual, and mental development.




The idea is to use the knowledge of the universal truths so that you can grasp the copter of power and command that ever illusive thing called Success.



That you may feel and live Success in your daily life. Success is best defined by one's own achievements which probably include mental health, physical health, spiritual fulfillment, material wealth and piece of mind. Most successful people of the past and the present have used these Truths to a greater extent to fulfill all that they have desired.




Most people want financial freedom, if that's what you want, this book will show you how. For what use is it to live life and not be able to pick the fruits there of, It is said that money is the root of all Evil; I say it is the lack of, that is the root of most Evil.



But the real root of all Evil is in mans MIND. For it is in the mind that all evil thoughts are manifested into the physical, and it is also in the mind where health, happiness and money are also manifested into the physical. Everything that is you now and every thing that you will become is held in the recesses of your MIND.




I know some of the statements made in the first chapters seem far fetched to the uninitiated of occult and metaphysical teachings, If you don't agree with some part of one or even a whole one, don't worry about it, as long as you follow the guide lines given for success you will have it. A person driving a car doesn't really need to know the workings of the engine, only how to operate the car.




The laws that govern the universe are likened to electricity flowing through a wire, the electricity is the law and the wire is the medium, which the current flows. It flows according to mans direction, it can flow to your house and run your electrical appliances, or it can flow to an electric chair in a prison.




The electricity doesn't know the purpose it is being used for, in one instance is doing something good and useful and the other is doing something destructive. A baseball bat is neither good nor bad, if it is used for it's intended purpose of hitting a baseball it is being used for good, on the other hand if someone uses it to crack someone elses head, it was used to harm someone, the bat doesn't know, it is neutral.




There is no such thing for instance as a bad drug, take the coca leaves from the coca plant and make cocaine out of them, and take the substance for the narcotic effect, this is the negative use of the plant.



But use the leaves to make nova caine so the dentist can work on your teeth, so you wont feel pain is the positive use of the plant.



Marijuana was used long ago to make hemp, it makes superb rope and paper that used to be in the pages of many books, but when people started using it in a negative way, it was outlawed. It is mans use of it that makes it either good or evil, likewise the laws governing the universe work in the same way, and are neutral in nature, only by being neutral, can it be said that we have free will.




We must choose how we want to use these laws, they can be used to bring us poverty or prosperity, life or death, it depends upon the user. With the knowledge you now have concerning the laws, especially the law of cause and effect, which is the most important one, you can now see more clearly why you are, where you are now, spiritually, health wise and financially. The first cause is in your MIND, "As a man thinketh, so is he."




The three most asked questions in the world are, where did we come from or who are we, what are we doing here or where are we going; How are we going to get there? This is a deep inquiry into nature and requires much thought, if we use the clue "So Above, So Below," and we consider that man creates for the pleasure of creating, because it is the nature of mans mind to create. Then we might say then that the Creator, created because it was in the nature of the Creator to do so.




The Creator must derive pleasure from creating, just as man does. 1f then the Creator created the universe complete with Galaxies and Solar Systems, which contain billions of planets, including earth, maybe this wasn't satisfying enough for the Creator, so he created life, and put part of his essence, in life so it would be alive.



So it must derive pleasure from life since it created life. Maybe the creator wanted live company, not just a bunch of stars and planets. But if this so, then what is our purpose here on earth? Is it just that we are here to give pleasure to the creator? Or are we here to CREATE as does the Creator?



Many great men have pondered these questions, and as result of Biblical knowledge and metaphysical studies, many have come to the conclusion that we are here to be Co-creators of the creation, that is to share the act of creation with the creator.







And this does make good sense because man does derive much pleasure from the act of creating. Look about the world, and you will come to the conclusion that man has been very busy creating.




But why? Is still the big question, The only logical answer is that " the creator creates in order to perpetuate it's own existence," for if the creator stopped creating it would cease to exist, is this not true of us humans, we create life every time we have children, we reproduce ourselves through our offspring, it is the natural order of things. If we stopped reproducing, we would cease to exist.




Remember " So Below, So Above," so then the Creator creates so that it will continue to exist, just as we do as humans. Every thing in the Universe is vibrating and in constant flux, and because of forces of magnetic flux lines crisscrossing the Universe and every thing is in motion causing the push-pull effect that keeps everything off balance enough to keep perpetual motion, else nothing would move or vibrate and all life including the Creator would cease to exist.




If each of us is a part of the creator, then we are its children, just as each of our children is also a part of us as well as the creator. So it is the natural order of things to CREATE. So if we are here, then where are we going?




Before we go any further I want to give you a story about the Tamauhara Indians. Approximately fifty thousand Tamauhara Indians live in Northwest Mexico in a twenty thousand square-mile area. It is the most isolated portion of the Sierra Tamauhara.




"In this mountain valley that even scorpions avoid, there reside the incredible Tamauhara, a tribe of Indians who are among the most primitive on earth, yet they run distances that are staggering. In their own language, the Indians call themselves Tauramuri, "the foot runners." They are a society of runners. they eat corn, squash and beans. they rarely eat meat.




They can run one hundred miles or more without rest. A film, called "Coronary Counter Attack," which can be obtained from Brigham young University in Utah shows these Indians running and shows another picking up her baby and walking several hundred miles to visit relatives, it shows her walking day and night until she gets there. She didn't even sit down after she arrived.



The car that the magazines staff had drove to the remote area, experienced a mechanical problem and there was no parts store for two hundred miles. The chief offered to send a runner to get the part, the staff member said are you sure chief?



He said yea it's only two days running time. 7 will send one of the women since it's not that far. Runners World Magazine, asked the chief, why do you run? He said we run because we run, it is necessary. that's all."




"God creates because he creates. It is self perpetuating, it can not stop, just as the Tamauhara Indians can not stop running. If they did stop running they could run no more. Life comes from life. Consider that when we breathe we take in a breath and we exhale an corresponding outgoing breath, then in going and out going, if we stopped breathing we would die.



There is the push and pull effect that is in all of nature, we breathe so that we can breathe. We breathe so we can take the next breath and keep on living. The Creator creates so it can create. By the use of millions of life forms on the planet, each having a soul or spirit (part of God), we help to continue the creation through us, because we are an extension of God. So to answer "Who Are You," "Why Are You Here," you are an extension of God, a cog in the great Universal wheel, helping to perpetuate God and all life.




Where are you going? Where ever you want to go by way of the Universal laws and free will. You can Rise up to the next plane of existence in the fourth dimension or spirit realm, ever trying to purify your spirit so that it will vibrate higher and higher until your spirit becomes one with the creator.




Just like the salmon swimming back up stream, returning home to spawn many fall short and never make it. Man to can fall short by way of our negative thinking and actions and be pulled downward to the lower vibratory plane of existence. Where you will stay until right thinking and action pulls you back up. You are here to help the creation by helping your fellow man, there by helping God.




Polarity is the action, "Polarity requires that two equal and opposite, positive and negative poles of force be active in order to manifest (create) action as the resultant." The Universe is kept in perpetual motion because of its imbalance seeking equilibrium. Were it ever to achieve a balance, all motion would cease.




Every celestial body that rotates on a magnetic axis represents a balance of motion in the form of imbalance, which is constantly seeking an equilibrium. Were it ever to achieve balance, all motion would cease. Every celestial body that rotates on a magnetic axis represents a balance of motion in the form of imbalance, which is constantly seeking an equilibrium.




Motion can exist only where there is an imbalance between two or more poles of force. That which is in balance cannot move itself, without some other force causing the action. The act or cause of creating keeps this imbalance in the universe.



"In studying the positive and negative polarity of the body, we see that we are an electrically charged battery and that we carry life force, energy, spirit, that can be measured. This can be clearly seen with the aid of Kilner glasses, in which the aura of the body can be seen.




We have instruments that can measure electrical emanations of the tissues in the living body. No reactions are recorded if the instruments are applied to dead person. In order to understand we must recognize the positive and negative nature of electricity.




In order for tissues to have life and action, there must be polarity, the positive pole working against the negative pole to produce a force, which can travel. It may travel over wires as electricity or over the nerves of the body as vibration, thought or spirit."




" The above is a stated medical fact." "So Below, So Above" In order to gain true life, we must lose the aspect of self, which is only for self, and become aware (born again) of a creator and of our personal identity in service to all life, in oneness with the creative purpose of growth for everyone. We are all one and an integral part of God.

PROPHETS,SEERS, SAGES AND SAVIORS



Let us now look at these same great truths in the light of the thoughts and the teachings as put forth by some of the worlds great thinkers and inspired teachers. The sum total and substance of the message in these pages is, the great central fact in human life is the coming into a consciousness.



Vital realization of our oneness with the Universal Intelligence (God), and the opening of ourselves to allow it's inflow into our lives. I and the father are one, said Jesus. Again he said, The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself : but the father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works.



He recognized the fact that he of himself could do nothing, only if he worked in conjunction with the infinite, or father. My father sends the power and I receive it. Then claim our inheritance, as promised.




Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added unto you. And he did not leave us in the dark about what he meant by this, for again he said, " Say not Lo here nor Lo there, know ye not that the kingdom of heaven is within you.



But you must receive him consciously, this is what is meant by being born again, to realize there is a higher power and to come into one with it. To give up self the I , the big I belongs to God, the little I belongs to man. To know this is recognize the one source of all Intelligence.









No man is an Island, or self made man, man cannot make himself, he was beget by the union of male and female partners, you've heard it said, yea he is a self made man, what is really meant by this is that this so called self made man, whether he knew it or not, received any inspirations, ideas or plans to make money by way of that great storehouse of knowledge, working through his subconscious mind. Anyone you know that has lasting success in life, is tuned into the Universal. You may say




well he never goes to church, or I have never heard him talking about God, or he doesn't look or act religious, how could he be so successful and have all that money, he's always so happy and doesn't seem to have any troubles in life.




First of all, religion is not in a church, some physical building built by man, religion is in the man who recognizes the higher Intelligence and asks for it's help, and of course by using the Universal laws you learned about in the first chapters. the right way.




The figure Jesus again pointed out our true relation with the Infinite Life when he said, Except ye become as little children ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Little children do not have the concept of the big I.




They are open, happy and believing! And it is said Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God, The meaning is that the physical life cannot be maintained by material food alone, but ones connection with the Infinite source determines the condition of the physical body and our progress in life.



Said the great Hindu sage, Mann, He who in his own soul perceives the Supreme Soul in all beings, and seeks oneness with it, attains the highest bliss. It was Athanasius who said, even we may become Gods walking about in the flesh.



The same great truth we are considering is the one that runs through the life and teachings of Gautama, he who became the Buddha. People are in bondage, said he, because they have not removed the idea of l, or self.



To do away with all sense of separateness, and to recognize the oneness of the self and the Infinite, is the spirit that breathes through all his teachings. Running through the lives of all the medieval mystics was the same great truth, union with the Infinite (God).




The Illumined seer, Emanuel Swedenborg, pointing out the great laws in connection with what he termed, the divine influx, and how we may open the door to the temple of truth. The great central fact of all the worlds teachings is to allow the Infinite Intelligence into your soul in just the degree that the soul opens up to Him.




All through the world's history we find that the men and women who have entered into the realm of true wisdom and power, and hence into the realm of true lasting peace and joy, have lived in harmony with the highest power.



All the prophets, seers, sages and saviors in the world's history became what they became and had the powers they had, through an entirely natural process. They all recognized and came into the conscious realization of their oneness with the Infinite. God is no respecter of persons. He doesn't create prophets, seers, sages and saviors as such. He creates men.




But here and there one recognizes his true identity, recognizes the oneness of his life with the Source whence it came. He lives in the realization of the oneness, and in turn became a prophet, seer, sage or savior. Neither is God a respecter of races or nations. He has no chosen people; but here and there a race or nation becomes a respecter of God and hence lives the life of a chosen people.



The Buddha And Christ

The Buddha Speaks: " Indeed those who seek for enlightenment must think of their minds as castles and decorate them. They must open the castle gates of their minds wide for the Buddha and respectfully and humbly invite him to enter the inmost fastness, there to offer him the fragrant incense of faith and the flowers of gratitude and gladness."



The Christ Speaks, Revelation 3:20 " Behold I stand at the door and knock. If any man hear my voice and open the door I will come in to him and will sup with him and he with me.



We have drawn deep lines to separate cultures of people who are listening to the same voice and pretending that the others voice is somehow improper, pagan etc. How foolish we are.!



The teachings of Buddha and Jesus are boundless love for humanity. The teachings of both are charity, forgiveness of injury, forgetfulness of self, and pity for the deluded masses. Both show the same contempt for the world and its riches and its religions.



Their desire was to give those whose burden in life was too heavy for them, hope enough ,and an inkling into the truth so as to support them in their heaviest hours. But the goals of both were frustrated owing to the excess of zeal by their later followers. The words of Jesus and the words of Buddha, misunderstood and misinterpreted.



Buddha said:



A great rock is not disturbed by the wind, the mind of a wise person is not disturbed by either honor or abuse.



One is the master of oneself, one is the oasis one can depend on, therefore one should control oneself above all.



As the light of a small candle will spread from one to another in succession, so the light of compassion will pass on from one mind to another endlessly.



Blood stains cannot be removed by more blood, resentment cannot be removed by more resentment, resentment can be removed only be forgetting it.



Though his feet leave their imprints in my footsteps and his hands carry my garment, if his mind is disturbed by greed, he is far from me.




God never prospers any man, but the man prospers because he acknowledges the higher power and lives according to the Universal Laws. The bible says God hardened Pharaoh's heart. God cannot by His very nature harden any ones heart. Your heart becomes hardened when you don't heed the signals you receive from God. Then you become the stubborn Pharaoh.



Everybody is guilty, nobody seems to be happy the way he/she is. And you can create guilt for anything, but once guilt is created you become powerful. The person who creates guilt in you becomes powerful over you, remember this strategy because then only he can redeem you of your guilt. Then you have to go to him.



Religion creates guilt, then you have to go to church. Then you have to go and confess, " I am a sinner". Then you are forgiven in the name of God. First in the name of God they created guilt, then in the name of God they forgave it. (Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh from " The Book").










THE GOLDEN THREAD



The great truth we are considering is the fundamental truth running through all religions. The mystical or metaphysical interpretation is the only true one. We are forever quarreling over which religion is right, which one is true.



The fact is many of the great religions hold the fundamental truth that the kundalini is the way to gods house. Its in the Buddhist teachings, its in the Hindu teaching and its in the bible.




The view of God in regard to which we can agree, is that He is Infinite Spirit or Infinite Intelligence, which is Light, and back of all, that is working in and through all, that is the life of ALL, is a matter in regard to which all religions can agree.



With this view there can be no infidels or atheists. There are infidels and atheists in connection with many views that are held concerning God, and thank God there are. Even devout and earnest people among us attribute things to God that no respectable men or women would permit to be attributed to themselves.



This view is satisfying to those who cannot see how God can be angry, jealous, vindictive, find fault and cast blame. God cannot by his very nature do any of these things, He is pure Light and Immutable Law, and cannot portray any such behavior, it is not within his/its nature to do so.



A display of these qualities always lessens our reverence and respect for men and women who attribute them to God. There are positive and negative in nature, yin and yang in all life.




The earnest sincere heretic is one of the greatest friends a true religion can have. Heretics are among Gods greatest servants. They are among the servants of mankind. The character Jesus was one of the greatest heretics.



He allowed himself to be bound by no established or orthodox teachings or beliefs. Jesus is preeminently a type of the universal. Which we as humans are to strive for.



All can recognize the Infinite while standing about their own homes, or on the hillside, or by pursuing the avocations of every-day life. For true recognition only God and the human soul are necessary.



Anywhere any time God and man in the bush may meet. One who doesn't grasp this great truth, a Christian for example, asks "but was not the Bible inspired ?" Yes, but he was not the only one inspired. Another who was a Buddhist asks, "Was not Buddha scriptures inspired?" Yes, but he was not the only one inspired.




Yes, but there are other inspired scriptures. A Brahman or a Buddhist asks, "Are not the Vedas inspired?" Yes, but there are other inspired sacred books. The problem is not in believing that your particular scriptures are inspired, but the problem is and the world shows it's absurd, laughable limitations by it, their inability to see that other scriptures are inspired.



The sacred books of Buddha, Hindu or whatever, are all inspired writings from the same source, God, speaking through the souls of those who have opened themselves up so that he may thus speak. Some may be more inspired than others.



It depends entirely on the relative degree that this one or that one opens himself to the divine voice. Says one of the inspired writers in the Hebrew scriptures, Wisdom is the breath of the power of God.



Let us not be among the number so dwarfed, so limited, so bigoted as to think that the Infinite has revealed Himself to one little handful of his children, in one little quarter of the globe, and at one particular period of time in history.




This is not the pattern in which God works. Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons, but in every Nation he that revereth God and worketh righteousness is accepted of Him, says the Bible.




"The doctrine of our master says the Chinese, consisted solely in integrity of the heart." We will find as we search that this is the doctrine of every one who is at all worthy of the name Master.



The great fundamental principles of all religions are the same. They differ only in their minor details according to the various degrees of unfoldment of different people. "I am sometimes asked, what religion do you belong ? What religion? No religion, religion is the anti Christ, it has kept you from the truth.



Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, for you take away the keys to the kingdom of God, for you have not entered in yourself, and have not suffered the people to go in. The sacred books reveal the truth, but religion keeps the truth from you, by teaching metaphysical and mythological texts literally.



There is only one truth. "Whatever road I take Joins the highway that leads to thee." says the inspired writer in the Persian scriptures. "Broad is the carpet God has spread, and beautiful the colors he has given it."



"The pure man respects every form of faith," says the Buddhist.



"My doctrine makes no difference between high and low, rich and poor; like the sky, it has room for all, and like the water, it washes all alike." "The broad minded see the truth in different religions; the narrow minded see only the differences."






"The narrow minded ask, "Is this man a stranger, or is he of our tribe? But to those of the Universal say "The whole world is but one family." Let all grasp this great truth; so that all can come to oneness with the Infinite.




Said the young man, Gautama Siddhartha, I have awakened to the truth and I am resolved to accomplish my purpose. Verily I shall become a Buddha. It was this that brought him into the life of the Enlightened One, and so into the realization of Nirvana right here in this life. That this same realization and life is within the possibilities of all here and now was his teaching.



It was this that has made him the Light Bearer to millions of people. Said the young man Jesus, know ye not that I must be about my fathers business? Making this the one great purpose of his life he came into full and complete realization, I and the father are one. He thus came into full realization of the Kingdom of Heaven right here in this life.



That all could come into this same realization and life here and now was his teaching. It was this that made him the Light Bearer to millions of people. And so far as the practical things are concerned, we may hunt the wide Universe through and we shall find that there is no injunction more practical than, "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other things will be added unto you. If you practice the single eye as instructed by Jesus, meditate and seek within. Buddha said watch and Jesus said watch. WATCH



"And you will have found the Magnetic One"




A COMPENDIUM OF LAW AND MENTAL ALCHEMY



The study and mystery of Occult science reveals to man the mysteries of his nature, the secrets of the Universe, and the hidden possibilities and the means by which he may attain Happiness, the successful achievements of his life's purpose and, lastly, a degree of perfection; in short, the aim and end of his destiny.




This is the secret if initiation, and has been its purpose since the first man became conscious of his soul or spiritual self and inaugurated the mysteries whereby all men might, if they so desired, attain spiritual consciousness, where the Kingdom of God will be found.




The "Key" to this process is the hidden teaching in all sacred writings; it is the basic foundation of all religious Teachings.


We must then use the knowledge of the higher laws of the Universe and come to a complete realization of what God is, before we can progress and achieve our goals in this life or another life.




By taking all the knowledge you have just learned, and putting it in the subconscious mind and mixing it up in a kind of mental Alchemy, you will get the idea and you will forever be a free man that knows no bound, just as Jesus. Buddha, Mohamed, Krishna, Dionysus, Shiva, Mithra, Sargon, Moses, Noah, Zoroaster, Devaki, Fo-Hi, Kung- Foo-Tse, Horns, and many more have done.





Bound by no limiting religion of the day, men who to this day carry their lamps with them by way of their very words. Dare! to walk in the footsteps of these great men. You can if you except the Universal Truth about what you have read in this book and by utilizing the Laws on the Positive side, you to can walk in their footsteps. This is truly; the "Pearl of Great Price."




Anyone who fails to see the truth contained in this book is likened to a Captain of a Ship lost at Sea, with no charts in which to locate the lighthouses in which to find his way. Lost forever in a vast Sea of uncertainty, with no direction, But by keeping a keen lookout for a lighthouse, one may find the shore.




If we can summarize, we may say that thought is the original cause. either from God in creating the Universe, or from mans mind creating our own reality. Thought when impressed upon the universal substance, which is the medium and is formless until the thought wave is impressed upon it, it then forms a signature of the thought, in the form of a pattern caused by the thought vibration, much like a code. Everyone who has ever thought, has made an impression, bad or good it's there in vibratory rate.









In this sense it can be said that their is a collective consciousness in the Universe that is the sum total of everyone whom has ever had a thought. This collective thought impression creates the very reality of the life here on earth, due to the law of attraction and the law of Cause and effect.




It doesn't mean that we have to be moved along by the collective, but by using the laws properly we can overcome the collective and create our own reality of life as we would have it.




Now here is where it gets really hard for the uninitiated to understand. Since the universal substance material is formless until thought is acted upon it, we can literally create anything we think about, because once the impression is there it will manifest by way of the other Universal Laws.




As an example Leonard Vinci sketched out drawings of flying machines and even drew a helicopter as well as many other things that have now come or have manifested in the physical, you see Mr. Vinci impressed upon the ether the thought of these machines as a first cause, all that remains.




The ether is the magnetism present in the universe. The automobile, radio, flight and many more inventions were being thought about and created across the seas, in various countries by different men, at the same time, all without the aid if modern communications.




Now, if an individual is in phase with the universal, the knowledge of how to manifest will come available in the mind of that individual. Vinci did this four thousand years ago. So it might take a certain amount of time for the manifestation to occur, but occur it will, sooner or later it's the Law remember.





So we can say that every war, every person that has ever been killed and every disease upon the earth was first in the recesses of someone's mind. This is true: Every world war, and the thoughts of ail the Stalin's and Hitlers f the world are still there in vibratory motion in the Cosmos.




The only way to soften the blow and possibly nullify the effects of ail the negative thoughts in the universe, is to meditate and seek to love his fellow man and seek to help instead of destroy.




Every thing that exists for the good of all mankind, like machines, computers and everything else, was also in some ones mind and impressed upon the universe, waiting for the right person or persons to receive it. Unless you the impressor, are in tune with the higher it won't come to you, it will come to someone else, you may have made the impression but that's all.




But if you are, the one that impressed upon the universe with the thought of some particular idea; it could very well come back to you immediately but technology may not have advanced far enough in that particular time, in that case technology Would have to catch up, before a physical manifestation can take place.




If you understand this one great Truth, you can now see how it is said that man has free will and that he creates his own destiny and helps to shape the destiny of all others on the planet, and possibly other life that may exist in the Universe.




That's why it can be said that one neighbor is rich happy and healthy, while your other neighbor is living a life of poverty, unhappiness and ill health. They created their own reality in their own minds perhaps without even realizing it, instead they find fault with the world, I don't have an education or the other guy gets all the breaks or I'm not lucky.



For by these very thought vibrations will be their reality, Jesus, Buddha, Shiva and many others taught this very truth. Like attracts Like, is not some fantasy but a very real quantum physics fact. You've undoubtedly heard it said that birds of the same feather flock together. You are the Captain of your ship, by way of your thought vibrations.




When you have completely grasped this truth you will know that the sign should read: God and Company UNLIMITED. It can only be so because all of the elements necessary to create anything from thought are already waiting to be formed by way of matter, or magnetic substance in the Universe. Consider that these very statements you have just read, stemmed from my subconscious mind as I was writing, I wonder where it came from? I know!




Any man who doubts this truth is letting his EGO or self big I get in the way of any progress or benefit that could be derived from the full understanding and right use of this knowledge.



Many will say; why haven't I been told that before? Or why isn't the Christian Bible more clear about it? I'll try to answer by saying that certain knowledge is only readily excepted by people who's soul has made a certain degree of progression, Jesus said when talking to his disciples.




"Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables ; "that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand." Luke 8-9 "Now the parable is, "the seed is the word of God.




"Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. They on the rock are they, which when they hear, receive the word of joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe and in time of temptation fall away.




And that which fell among the thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no Unit to perfection. But( that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it and bring forth fruit with patience. Luke 8:11-15 "




No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candle stick, that they which enter in may see the light."




For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither anything hid, that shall not be known and come abroad. Take heed therefore how ye hear: whosoever bath. to him shall be given: and whosoever bath not, to him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.



Luke 8: 16-18 'What does it mean. Most men and women were not spiritually advanced enough to except, understand or even appreciate the knowledge in the bible, so it is hid in mystical parables, so one would have to find the truth for themselves in due time.




Jesus said: "You cannot cast pearls among swine." This simply means, do not give the full knowledge to those who are not ready, for they will throw it out and step on it. Or worse use it for power and control of the masses.




Jesus knew that many men and women were to base to even begin to understand the real truth, but he knew the art of conditioning, and sooner or later that they would uncover the real meaning of his parables.



Zen Buddhist teaching was Similar; the Zen Buddhists teachings are in the form of parables called, Koans. Koans were written just like parables and the master would give the student one and tell him to go and meditate on it, and come back when he thought he had the answer.



In this way a full realization of the meaning would come; no one spends time and effort studying and digging for knowledge and then throws it out, but if handed to you without your own effort involved, you will throw it out.



An example of a Buddhist koan, Basho's Staff;" 'When you have a staff, I will give it to you if you have no staff, I will take it away from you, muon's comment: "When there is no bridge over the creek the staff will help me. When I return home on a moonless night the staff will accompany me. But ii you call this a staff, you will enter hell like an arrow."

If you look back at the previous page you will recall Jesus said the same thing, when he said: whoever has it, it will be given, and whoever does not have it, it will be taken away. here we have two men at two different times in history and different locations in the world, saying the same thing, in their own way.




Lets look at it again, For whosoever has, to him shall he given, and for whosever hath not will he taken away even that which he seemeth to have." To him that holds the right idea (spirit) everything shall be given, and from him who hath not the right idea shall he taken away even that which he hath.




Ideas are spiritual, they are intangible are they not, therefore spiritual, all thought is spiritual, which is magnetism or unseen light. Thought is externalized by the images we hold before our minds eye. Every time we think we create a chain of causes which will create conditions similar to the thoughts that originated it.



Not far from Buddha hood : The young student asked Gasan, "have you ever read the Christian bible?" " No read it to me," said Gasan. The student opened the bible and read through. Matthew: "And why take ye though! for raiment" Consider the lillies of the field, how the grow.




They toil not, neither do they spin, and yet i say unto you that even Solomon in ail his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Take therefore no thought for the morrow, for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself."



Gasan said: "Whoever uttered those words I consider an enlightened man." The student continued reading: "Ask and it shall he given you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.




For everyone that asketh, receiveth, and he that seeketh, findeth, and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened." Gasan remarked: "This is excellent! Whoever said that is not far from Buddha hood.


Zen Flesh Zen bones : Paul reps



What was the real message of Jesus? " That in Him we live, move and have our being." Can you imagine what this meant to the powers to be at that time of slavery and oppression " This would mean that ALL men are equal, then who would be the slaves.



Who would be the sheep if this was excepted. "The authorities trembled. They were not fools. they recognized the logical implication of such teaching. So religion purposefully held the truth from you, since no one really reads their bibles anyway, who would ever find out.




No wonder generations of authorities have corrupted the true meaning of the bible sine the truth would be to dangerous a power to wander the world unleashed and uncontrolled." It would mean that religion would lose its grip on the masses, as it is finally doing today as we enter the Aquarian age.



When you see the man with the pitcher of water follow him into the house, the house of Aquarius of course, this is the time of the Passover, from the old ideas, to the new understanding of life and light.




The message of Jesus was simply that God was not a petulant creator who loses control with his creation, sending wrath and determined to destroy it. Not some vain king on a throne who must be flattered and bribed into concessions of mercy. Not some rigid accountant, checking up the sins against penances and striking a cold, hard balance.




Not any of these nothing like these but a great Universal life force encompassing us all. He said "hold your heads high for ye are the children of God." Ye are the light of the world. Behold, now are ye the sons of God! Greater works than I you can do. It is not I, but the father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works."



The message of Jesus was simple enough; do not look lo here, nor lo there, for the kingdom God is within you. And that man is the Son of God. That inherits from the father all of life, all of wisdom, all of riches, all of power. God is not external per say, he is literally all around us in the from of electromagnetic energy (photons) Light.





The God that most of us were taught to believe in was a huge patriarchal God seated on a throne stroking his beard and holding a staff in his right hand. A stern king, righteous and just chastening His creation mercilessly whenever He felt it was for their good; holding the exact scale between the good they had done and their sins, dispensing punishment and reward.




This is a gross perversion of what God really is. This King-God idea is slowly disappearing from our conception of God. As we enter Aquarius the water bearer, the cleansing is at hand.




The great doctrines, of the utmost vital import once to every man and woman, was written in unexplained passages and parables, dark sayings and allegory, to hide the truth from religion and to those who do not seek. There are several books missing from the bible, and no one knows why or do they? .



I will give you some of the actual books removed by this church and you can look them up in your king James bible if you want to. 'Wherefore it is said, in the book of the wars of the lord. Num .21 :14 no book.




Also he made them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: Behold, it is written in the book of Jasher. Sam:1:18 No book. Now the rest of the acts of Je-hosh-a-phant, first and last, behold they are written in the book of Jehu the son of hamani who is written in the book of the Kings of Israel. 2 Chron.20:34 No books.




Now the acts of Re-ho-bo-am, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shem-ai-ah the prophet, 2 Chron. 12:15 No book. Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet. 2 Chron. 9:24 No book on Nathan either.




These are just a few of the missing books, with some research you can find more. They wove the Zodiacal stories around Jesus' teaching. The fundamental idea of number 12 relating to manifestation of the trinity within a cycle is clearly shown in all religions, and is called the Universal Solar Myth or Sun myth. Here we see another golden thread.




Jesus is a picture of the Sun, an allegory of great significance. The whole of the Bible is an allegory. "The chief allegory is a symbolic portrayal of the cycle of the Sun, Physically and spiritually the founder has 12 great labors, 12 sons, surrounding Himself with 12 disciples, then there are 12 sons of Jacob, 12 tribes of Israel, 12 thrones of heaven, 12 princes of Ishmael, 12 Olympian deities, 12 labors of Hercules, 12 Gods consents, the 12 governors of 1Vfianichean, 12 apostles of Osiris, 12 Knights of King Arthur, the 12 energy meridians, 12 mineral salts, 12 functions of masonry, the 12 inch rule, 12 Alters of saint James, 12 shields of Mars, 12 asses of the Scandinavians, the 12 sacred cushions of Japanese deity. There were 12 deminsions to King Solomon's Temple, and Solomon had 12 officers, who had 12 stones in their breastplates, the 12 months in a year, 12 hours of the day, 12 hours of the night, 12 moons of the lunar year, 12 brothers Arvaus, the 12 yoke of Oxen, the 12 tortures of the Egyptian neophyte."




The 12 angels judging the 12 tribes, twelve jurors in the court, and many more. "These 12 reappear in the Hindu tales and the Brahman religion. The old testament is full of illusions to the twelve Zodiacal signs, and the whole scheme is built upon it. Heroes, personages, and events. Thus in the dream of Joseph, who saw eleven stars, bowing down to the twelfth, which was his star, the Zodiac is referred to as the secret doctrine.




The twelve world teachers: Akhenaten, Hermes, Orpheus, Zoroaster ,Budha ,Confucious, Lao-tse, Plato, Jesus, Mohammed, Padmasambhava, and Quetzalcoatl


And there are twelve cranial nerves in your head.


"The Zodiac is the oldest and most sacred manifestation of the Divine within His creation of which we have any record. God uses the movement of the stars (Zodiac) through the heavens to show man kind that there's an intelligence behind creation. The Knowledge of the stars far antedates the Greeks and the Egyptians, having come to us from the Atlantaens. Its origin is one of great antiquity."




"The Zodiac signs can be traced to the oldest of traditions. Ancient records of the Assyrians some dating hack as far as 48.000 years before the Greek era, show that the configurations of the planets given therein have been calculated and confirmed as correct by our modern astronomers.




In fact the Great Pyramid at Giza was constructed on such marvelously accurate astronomical calculations that the main passage leading down to the Kings Chamber was placed at such an angle that the rays from the pole star of that age shone straight down the passage to rest upon the sarcophagus in the center of the chamber.




The pyramids are aligned with the Orion's belt and the kings chamber shaft aligns with Orion's belt on the vernal equinox, so his soul would go there upon death and burial. The kings chamber being represented as the pineal gland of your brain and the queens chamber the pituitary gland.




Nothing could more plainly indicate that the ancient Egyptians possessed a knowledge of the zodiac planetary influences and anatomy and in many respects more wonderful than that of the present day, although apparently they were without astronomical instruments."


The Secret Doctrine Blavatsky I,714-5


The first essential is to find a point of contact with the Father. Benjamin Franklin sent a kite up into the clouds and brought down along its string a current of Electricity. Through him, man learned to harness this electricity for his daily servant. Franklin made his contact with the source of power. Through understanding, man has harnessed it to serve his needs.




Touch a button, and the light comes on, turn a dial and it brings you the news, from hundreds or thousands of miles away. The mere throwing of a switch releases the power of millions of horses. Was there ever such a master servant I wonder if Mr. Franklin really knew what he had discovered.


Collier: secret of the Ages









What is the Golden Thread that runs through all great religions of the world, That there is but one great source of power in the Universe manifesting itself through everyone and everything that exists. Jesus said. "In Him we live, move and have our being, is not some words Jesus said to try and confuse you, He meant it literally.



Since we now know that the smallest building blocks of matter are but swirling bits of electrical energy, and that millions of bits of these make up matter, and that millions of bits of matter make up the atom, and that millions atoms make up all the variety of chemicals, gases, vapors and all life forms, we can now see this one great truth.




If an proton and an electron is said to be pulsating with life, which is spiritual, and all matter and atoms are made from these, and from these atoms comes everything else in our Universe, all chemical elements, every steam locomotive, every tree and piece of wood, every rock and piece of iron, every star, planet and galaxy, in short everything is, electrical in nature.




And if we consider that Jesus said that unless man rendered service to his fellow man, that he to would not receive service from another, to give of yourself is the heart of his teaching, and since we know he said "it is done on earth as it is in heaven," so below as above," in other words, we become servants to our fellow man, in the same regard God is our servant as well, as evident of the discovery of electricity!




Which was not really discovered, but recognized by Mr. Franklin, it always existed just like the new world that Columbus said he discovered, he didn't discover it, there were already people living here, he discovered it unto himself, it was always there.




Likewise so is God, always was and always will be. What is the Truth? That God is literally everything, his essence permeates, encircles, weaves, passes through, and crisscrosses everything in the Universe. God is Mind, God is pure Energy, God is Electrical in nature.




God is Photon and God is Infinite Living Mind comprised or made up of intelligent electromagnetic energy or photons, which when directed by His thought aimed at a central focal point creates a vortex, this vortex of energy creates more electrical charges, Protons and Electrons these particles group together and form atoms, the basic building blocks of life.



Hydrogen being the base element, from which all known chemical chains are derived. The lowest life forms, having the lowest vibratory rate, and the highest life form, the highest vibratory rate.



It is through these different rates of vibration that life is created by the creator, from the lowly earth worm, to man. from the will of God through His thought being focused on a point in space, creating electrical charges, forming matter, atoms then all life we know, and all the planets and stars in the Universe.




God is forever sending forth his mental thought waves (photons) into the Cosmos creating new planets, galaxies and entire solar systems as old ones decay and die, some forming black holes where new life will form, likewise man continues to create because it is our inherent nature to do so.



It is the gift of the creator, not to use it is to die, to fall by the wayside, forever lost at sea. He breathed into the nostril of man His magnetic essence so that we to could help to perpetuate life. Life comes from Life.




Magnetism (Photons) is the only force in all nature that can cause perpetual motion, actually there is no such thing as perpetual motion, there always has to be a prime mover, in this case God, His thought waves in the ether cause everything to move giving magnetism its power to work. You have no need for Church edifices anymore.

"After the philosopher had gone Anada asked the Buddha what he had attained;


The Buddha replied: "A good horse runs even at the shadow of a whip."



Lets move forward with the crux of this book. I wanted to give you the Universal laws first and enlighten you as to how the creator works in your life and establish for you, your relationship with Him and your fellow man.




So many books have been written about low to achieve success, and there are some excellent books on the subject, but they never explain the Universal laws or how they work. And consequently people will read these books and will follow the guidelines in them, but then nothing happens and they give up, thinking the message was baloney.




It's not that the book was baloney, it's just that you were unaware of the Laws, you were unaware that if you did not stop all and I mean all negative thinking, like I already discussed with you, nothing happens. No amount of positive thinking will work if you if you still send out any of those negative (low) vibrations.




Like attracts like, Cause and effect, and the law of vibration and the spoken word. This is the missing piece of the puzzle for most people, I sincerely hope that you will master these Laws, you see I just said an evil word, did you catch it?




I said I hope you will, instead I should have said I know you will master these Laws and you will prosper; do you see the difference it makes on the impression of your mind? You will claim your riches and you will be successful I promise you that. Refer to the Laws often until you have them firmly in your mind and they are a part of your every sleeping and waking moment of your life.





"An day old Eagle, cannot fly over a mountain pass "



If you don't agree with me about the essence of the creator, that is that he is electromagnetic in nature, The bible says god is light, and light is photons. It doesn't really matter as long as you know there is an intelligent life force. As long as you believe the Laws and how they work, that's the important part.



The letter killeth, and the spirit giveth life. Action is the only requisite as it is the only thing the Universal demands from you, many people go through life not fully believing in a Universal Intelligence or going to church every sunday, but unconsciously they are working the laws on the positive side by the very way of their thinking, words and actions.



They just happen to be good natured people with all the right qualities, they are vibrating to that higher frequency and their locked on the grid.




You don't have to know how the car engine works, you just have to know how to operate the car .One thing is for sure there is an unlimited supply of Universal energy permeating everything, giving life to every beast, insect and creature on the earth.




All through your daily life you will find this "Life Force" steadily at work. Embrace it, work with it, take into yourself, and there is nothing you cannot do. "In Him we live, move and have our being."



Just knowing that it is there ready to pour it's essence upon you is very comforting, man was designed to create and take action or work in some field of endeavor for the progression of all mankind not just himself. Mind is creative, but it must have a model on which to work, it must have thoughts to supply the motive force, or the first cause.



" Give me a base of support," said Archimedes, "and with a lever 1 will move the world," And the base of support is that, all started with mind, with a mental image: This city, with all its houses, places, steam engines, buildings large and small, dams, airplanes, immeasurable traffic and tumult, what is it but a thought, but millions of thoughts made into one-a huge measurable Spirit of a thought, embodied in brick, pig iron, smoke, dust, places, parliaments, coaches docks, ships, and the rest of it! Not a brick was made but some man had to think of the making of it first."


Collier



For it is within mind that all we know had its beginning. The measure of your success will be directly resultant by the first cause, your thought, then a mental image, then action resulting in a physical manifestation. It all started with an idea, a model on which to build. Universal mind supplied the idea, that model.




A house began with a thought then a blueprint, then a physical model. If we already except this fact, then why is it that you do not have everything you want in life, like a beautiful home, a bank full of money, cars or whatever else you dream about, maybe you do already have some of these things, but none of which was not first in your mind as first cause. Jesus proclaimed that we could have all the riches of Gods kingdom, then why are so many people living in poverty and are unhappy with life?




The answer lies in the mind, for in the mind man creates his kingdom, by using the laws to his advantage, he can literally have just about all he desires, Because to live in poverty and mental sickness is a sin. But the answer is creative thought, because that is the basis from which all exists and has always existed.




Remember God prospers no man, but man prospers because he has realized the higher authority and takes advantage of this life force, claiming all that he was promised by the Creator.




But before any claiming can be made on your part, you must first and foremost this minute stop all negative (Evil) thought, or you cannot synchronize to that great power grid, you must close that breaker with your mind and raise your vibrations to match that frequency, to be in phase with that Universal storehouse of knowledge.








As a review lets go over exactly what you must do before you can expect any extra life force to come in your life, other than that already which has been given you for the means to perform osmosis.



1. Stop right now harboring thoughts of the lower vibratory nature such as, do not cast blame, find fault, harboring resentment and anger, holding grudges or lie.



2. Find no fault with another, " one man sneers at another for having one fault, when he himself has ten."



3. Never use words such as Maybe, I'll try, I hope, If I'm lucky, or any other word you can think of, that is not an absolute affirmative action word.



4. Simply have no evil thought that will lower the vibration of your endocrine glands.




INSTEAD YOU MUST


1. Bless those who curse you and love your enemies, it's for your own good.


2. Always say words like: I will, It will work, I will have, I can.


If you are full of anger or resentment, you must release it, not try and release it, but release it. Anyone that has wronged you in any way will be taken care of by the law of cause and effect, so don't worry, everyone gets their just due.




Believe in these laws and you will prosper I assure you. Just forgive them all and do it now and practice it every day until it is actually manifested in your heart, you can't fool the Universal, only yourself.



If the vibration is not raised by these first causes by your thoughts there is no need to proceed with the rest of this book. You will still be lost at sea, and although you can see the Lighthouse, you can't reach shore because your main engine just broke.



Ok now that you have got the main engine repaired, and your ship is back on course you can proceed to your port of destination. Before you can send the engine room an all ahead bell, you have to do some other things first.




Work on any other causes for failure. So many well intentioned, earnest men and women fail because of negative thinking, and this is truly a great tragedy, but it is because it is their lack of knowledge of the Universal laws and how to use them, and many other excuses that you must work out.



The great Universal wheel of creative power presses forever on, never resting, moving with definite purpose. You likewise must have a purpose, your purpose is to be a part of that great Universal wheel, by allowing the Universal mind to take hold and guide you though life's troubled waters, which are the makings of your own mind.




Since primordial man first took notice of himself, was busy trying to survive, making stone tools with which to work, discovering fire and finding shelter, finding food in which to fill his great appetite, but he had a purpose and that was survival.




His goal was to survive. And today in this modernized, mechanical world with factories belching smoke from their smokestacks and never ending streams of traffic clouded in dust and pollution man is still surviving, because he has a purpose.



That purpose is to keep on living, to keep on surviving driven by some seemingly unknown force. Survival is a natural inborn instinct built into every living thing in this world, the amoeba the fish in the sea, the alligator and the elephant and all others in between are all busy trying to survive.




To survive is to exist, to exist is to express the Universal life force flowing through all creatures on the earth. It matters not whether you believe that life began from primitive ape man thousands or millions of years ago, or came into existence fully in the shape you are now from the mind of the creator. Some power greater than you had to bring to earth the first germ of Life.




Some vital force permeates nature endowing it with life as evident from plants, animals and man. In either event you are here, and still surviving, but just to survive for the sake of surviving is not enough, we all want more out of life than we now have.



If you haven't been getting what you want out of life, if you don't have the job you want, or and all the material possessions of your dreams, then you have been doing something wrong. Namely, wrong thinking, thinking without a definite purpose or plan, no defined goals in which to drive the creative force lying dormant inside of you.





God doesn't prosper any man, but man prospers because he has recognized the Universal Mind, and has tapped it's unlimited supply of stores that has anything you want or need. But the first thing you need is belief and the faith that whatever you want, will be given you, second you need a direction a purpose, a set of defined goals. and thirdly you need to utilize the Universal Laws in a positive way to get results. Goals




The first requisite for any forward movement is a set of well defined goals, you must have a direction, some point on the compass, that you want to go. No man can said to be truly living without goals and aspirations, Something in this life strikes every ones fancy, and you must find that something if you don't already have it.



Without goals you are like a squirrel going round and round inside one of those wheels, forever going nowhere. Your goals need not be so lofty, but just something that you want out of life or something that you want to accomplish.



Psychologist's tell us that we must write our goals down on paper, in minute detail, not vaguely but detailed, this is very important as we will see later. If you don't already have a set of well defined goals, I suggest you get a pad of paper and a pencil and write them down now!




Everything that you want, everything that you want to do or accomplish in this life, places you want to visit, friends that you want to have, the job or type of business you want, how much money you want, the style of house you want to live in, it's geographical location, etc.etc.etc. The following is an example of a well defined goal to pattern yours after.




Lets say one of your goals is to have a beautiful home, just to write a beautiful home is not enough, you must write something like this: I want a house built of red brick, it will have five bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, a large kitchen with three windows, one facing north, visualize the floor plan, the pool in the back yard, and the sea coast in the background, completely see this house with all of it's furnishings, the flower beds and garden, smell the flowers, see the grass grow, leave no detail out.




This is the way you should go about defining a goal; it is very important that you do it in this manner. And make sure you tell your subconscious, that you want to be the owner of this house, not that you will just see yourself in that house, because you might find yourself the butler in charge of a house just like the one you have been visualizing. Instead of the owner. It helps even to look at pictures in magazines, if you don't have a particular idea, this has been proven very successful.




Do this with every thing you want, no matter how insignificant it may seem to you, your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between a small goal and a lofty one, so make sure you want what you are writing down.




See yourself doing the thing you are writing about, visualize every detail of every goal, once you have all your goals written down, and it doesn't matter what order they are in, just as long as there written down.




You must read these goals to yourself every day at least two times, if you can't or don't have time, that's all right, just visualize your goals often during the day, remember you are planting seeds, these seeds you will nourish your goals with belief and faith, you will water these goals everyday with belief and faith.




Believe that you have it, and give thanks to the Universal mind. If you have time you should rewrite your goals once a day, the rewriting confirms to your subconscious mind that you are serious, you being the conscious thinking mind. Then enter meditation, and still the mind for at least 10 to 15 minutes every day, The bible says be still and know that I'm god, it means to still the mind, to meditate on it.



It also compounds the belief, if you think about something long and often enough, your subconscious mind eventually believes it and must act, lest the cart get in front of the donkey, and your subconscious won't allow this to happen.




With the law of attraction in play, you will get what you ask for, but don't be anxious, this only blocks the subconscious, and hampers results, just have the faith that the thing is done and leave it alone, put no time limit on it, your subconscious mind has to work in conjunction with the Universal mind to direct you, just listen for signals, and recognize signs.




If you have done everything right, and you are locked on the Universal grid, your goals and dreams will become a reality, Universal Mind knows no limits and has no lack. You say but I don't even have a job, or where am I going to get the money?



Oh ye of little faith (belief) belief is the most important word you need to become familiar with, because with no belief there is no works. belief, means having no doubt, no fear nothing, doubt and fear will kill you, you may have heard it said that fear cannot kill you, well I tell you it will, Jesus proclaimed this all during his ministry, always telling his followers they must have faith (belief) and, fear not.



Belief is the only requisite that the Universal mind demands from you, other than doing all of the other things right that we talked about earlier. No belief, no works, this should be a law, maybe the law of faith, sounds good to me. Visualize your goals, water them daily with belief and prayer.




Bless those that curse you, do good to those that hate you, and hold no, absolutely no negative evil thought in your mind, I can't over emphasize this enough. Send thoughts of love and healing to your friends and relatives, you will get back ten times more than the vibrations or frequency you send out, you are doing yourself a service when you bless those that hate you and despise you and say bad things behind your back.



You know the old saying that goes, Rats will talk at night, and birds will sing in the day time, ignore it, take no part in idle conversation, lest you become a rat, guard your thoughts and your words with diligence.



Walk and look the part of someone that has this great Life Force on his side, don't let Him down, don't allow your breaker to open and lose that flow of power and knowledge.









If you have just started to bless those who curse you, and do good to those that hate you, if you have been harboring negative and evil thoughts for a time, like years maybe, well you will have to let the effects of all these negative vibrations come in and work themselves out, so don't be discouraged, if you are doing everything right and then all of the sudden life throws you a curve, realize that it was the effect of a first cause somewhere down the line. Learn from it, use it, and continue right minding.




The law of cause and effect lets no one escape, there is no place to hide, neither high nor low, nor in the depths of the ocean, the law of cause and effect is in action, but meditation helps, it helps to neutralize the effects of some of your first cause thoughts, so if you have been pretty ugly in the past, meditation will go along way.



But always keep the belief, that which you want will be given you, in fact demand it! Proclaim to your subconscious mind that it get busy in solving these things, remember you are the master and your subconscious is your slave, it must obey, and full fill your desires. Have you got those goals written down yet?




If you have already done this in the past, well then good for you, you are one of the few who has ever written there goals down, but you must refer to them every day.



Manifesting your reality



SATAN AS THE ROOT OF EVIL


You remember we said that God is not some petulant creator sitting on a throne checking up sins against good deeds. Well neither is Satan a real being with big ears and a pitchfork stoking the fires of hell. I am going to give you something, a truth, a biblical truth.



A Universal truth taught by all great religions of the world, remember I said there is nothing worthy of truth unless it is Universal, the truth about Satan also fits this mold. "Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord (Jehovah), and Satan came among them. And the lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord (Jehovah), and said, from going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it."




This account about Satan puts him on an entirely different light and relationship than is usually believed and taught. If he is completely evil, how can he mingle with the sons of God and appear before Jehovah, like one of them?




Also, if he is the devil, the incarnation of evil itself, how can he gain entrance into heaven? Is not hell supposed to be the abode of the devil? Satan is Lucifer, the fallen angel who was the morning star of creation.




He is the personification of the ego, pride and lust for power, and as such he is the adversary of God. Ego is the beginning and root of all evil. It is a mind process which separates man's consciousness from God consciousness. It acts as a wall between man and God.



The greater the ego, the thicker the wall and the longer will it take the soul to reach God-Realization. Not that God is limited, for He sees and knows all, but the soul's consciousness cannot penetrate this thick wall without His help, which can only be obtained by practicing humility.




It is the ego that is the root of all selfishness and it's subsequent suffering and disintegrating forces, with endless lesser evils which result from forceful self-will and which only tend to keep us from linking up with that Universal grid of knowledge, Universal Mind.



Satan is not the evil which is called the devil, nor the disintegrating forces of evil in their lower aspects and details. Satan is still a son of God, although fallen, but he cannot return to the fathers House because of ego, self interest and pride. However, he is still a powerful prince and the ruler of many a realm and worlds.




This was plainly indicated when he tried to tempt Jesus by promising Him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them if He would fall down and worship him. This means that the lower carnal nature is tempting your higher mind, with wordly things, to keep you from attaining Christ consciousness.




In the Christian world, the great Mystic, Jacob Boeheme, came closest to telling the real story about Satan. he wrote that after creating the beautiful morning star called lucifer, the prince Lucifer came to pay homage to the Lord God, the Supreme Creator. He entered the magnificent royal palace of the Lord, in a beautiful room that was not occupied (the Mind) by anyone.




Then he heard a sweet, childlike voice (conscious Mind) saying "You are welcome, Lucifer." At the gentleness, Lucifer's ego began to expand in thoughts of what he could do to govern here by his might, etc. By that very thought, he himself set loose such forces that there were loud crashes of thunder and lightning which hurled Lucifer out in space, and he has been traveling there ever since.



Throughout the Bible, as well as in the Kabbala, and especially in the older writings of the Zohar and the Talmud, are mentioned hosts of heaven and principalities and powers, Arch angles cheribims etc, the Supreme father and Creator of all. This is but a glimpse of the hierarchies of heaven. All sacred texts have their own names for each one of these offices, rulers and powers.




And there is always an evil one named Satan, Kal or something else representing the EGO, always throwing a monkey wrench into the wheels of progress, destroying life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. here we see yet another golden Thread.



In all the accounts given in the holy scriptures, it is clearly indicated that Original Sin was pride or egotism a desire for self, apart from the welfare of others. If thou must make a gold coin true Let thy mint these rules pursue, In the forge of continence.




Let the goldsmith be a man of patience, His tools be made of knowledge. His anvil made of reason, with the fear of God the bellows blow, With meditation and austerity make the fire glow, pour the liquid in the mold of love, print the name (Nam) of the lord thereon, and cool it with holy waters. for thus in the mint of truth the word is coined. This is the real Alchemy of life by the power of His Word, when found and used within the pearl of truth.



The following are quotations from the bible, indicating the great dominion of satan and the extent of his power. Jesus was accused, by the Pharisees, of casting out demons by the power of Beelzebub, the prince of demons.



"And Jesus knew their thoughts and said unto them, every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand. And is Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand? And if I by Beelzubub cast out devils by whom do your children cast them out?




Therefore they shall be your judges. But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of god is come unto you." Mat. 12:25-28. At another time Jesus said to his devotees: "Know ye not this parable? And how then will ye know all parables?




The sower soweth the Word. And these are they by the wayside, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan (ego) cometh immediately and taketh away the Word that was sown in their hearts." Mark 4:13-14-15.



"And these are that likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; and have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the worlds sake, immediately they are offended.



And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the Word. And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering, in, choke the Word, and it becoming unfruitful.



And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the Word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirty fold, some sixty, and some an hundred." mark 4:16-20




" If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear. And he said unto them, take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be -given. for he that hath, shall be given: and he that hath not, shall be taken away even that which he hath."mark 4: 21-25



"Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world (ego) be cast out."John 12:31







Jesus referred to Satan as the God of this world: "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world (ego, lust for power), hath blinded the minds of them which believe not."

Romans 16:20


"Humble yourselves therefore (under the mighty hand of god, that He may exalt you in due time; casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil (EGO), as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.


"1 Peter 5: 6-8


Satan also known as Kal, was given charge of hosts of beings, who involuted into the lower spheres with him. In the bible these souls are referred to as the Elohim. They were allowed to create their own regions in which to live and rule as they desired to do, for all desires must be full filled sometime; if not in one lifetime, then in another.




It is not only these desires themselves, but the resulting consequences of full filling some that must be reaped eventually. That is why it has been truly said that we should watch our thoul2hts and control our desires.




It is therefore, plain to see that it was egotism, desire and abuse of God given powers which got us into the mess in which we now find ourselves, and that it is necessary for us to travel up the same road by which we came down.




But we have so covered up the lighted path, which is in ourselves, that we are full of darkness and need the guidance of one which is himself full of light. Only through testing our desires in the energy fields of the mind, emotions and matter can we be convinced mentally; and through experience, emotionally; and through suffering, physically, that such a thing exists, and that completes the gamut of our mental process and prowess in action and in life, as experience and proof of our own desire and folly in our cleverness.




All effort at reformation is done by the soul itself, in its own make-up and sphere. The great alchemical task of raising the soul out of the mire and limitations of the lower mind and senses lies within ourselves. Only when these are transformed into pure gold qualities of love and surrender of them all to God's Will, can the soul rise on the tree of life and partake of the fruits there-of, fruits of wealth, heath and happiness.





Abundance all about, there is no shortage of stores in god's supply house, his refrigerator is always full, and ready to quench the thirst, and to fill the belly. In God's storehouse rests all the money, in all the banks of the world.



Only by surrendering self, and leaving ego in the shadows and following love can one unlock the door to the temple of mystery and meet ISIS face to face, only then can one said to be a master of his own fate, not made by the hands of man.




He has constructed the temple of "Hiram Abiff. " And he alone has the master key, the key to find the mystery of the WORD. "Seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you." Nothing is hid that shall not be known. All begins and ends with MIND.




For it is in mind that we create our reality, it is in mind that we rewrite the movie script, and create that which we would have. We must first leave the EGO and selfishness in the shadows, before we may unlock the door to the temple of mystery, and with the master key, this book one may enter the temple, where truth and knowledge await him. Where all in abundance is found, no lack anywhere.




Once the temple door is open, one is at the proper vibration, and frequency and is locked on that universal grid, with Universal mind, nothing is impossible.




We enter the brain, where the micro and the macro are one, there we see clearly with no delusions, no clouds blocking our view, no hills and valleys, no deserts anywhere, no oceans to cross and no mountains to climb, because you have already climbed, already navigated the sea through the dense fog, and have weathered the storms of the ocean, and have caught sight of the lighthouse in the distance, and have made way for it. Your rudder steady, you have arrived safely, and moored your ship and lowered the gangway for liberty



GOING ASHORE


You salute the Officer on deck and ask permission to go ashore, and he says permission granted, No port of call was ever so wonderful or beautiful, but this time you do not have to be back at midnight to stand the night watch, nor to pull out with the ship in the morning, because you're staying in this part, you're jumping ship right here, let them try and beckon you back aboard, let them call the hell hounds, let them threaten you with words of seeming wisdom, theres no turning back for this sailor, this sailor is ashore for good.




Once ashore you find the streets are paved with gold, and the lamp posts are beaming light through precious gemstones of emerald ruby and diamonds, everyone walking on the sidewalks looks



familiar, have I seen these people before? Yes it's Thomas Edison. Marconi, Mr. Tesla with some adornment of crystals on his head rambling on about vibration, theres Jesus, Mohamed, Buddha and Lao Tze.




Then you see more, all the saviors, saints, avatars, sages and wise men, they are all there, walking and talking to one another, eating and drinking, laughing and having fun,then there's a silence, a deathly silence, then you could hear this voice in the distance, it's, it's Satan (your ego) yes I'm sure of it now, he said to me you can partake of anything here you see about you, you can gather up the bricks of gold here on the streets, you can pick the diamonds and rubys from the lamposts and fill your sack, if you bow down and worship me.




Just then Buddha walks up to you out of the shadows and says, there's a temple, wherein lies the secret of all knowledge, wisdom and truth I'll take you there, after walking a short distance you are at the threshold of a beautiful temple with ancient writing and hieroglyphs all around.



On both sides stand to giant pillars on which the words were written Jachin and Boaz the two pillars of the Universe and a sign overhead made of stone and etched the words, all who enter this door shall not return, this is the temple of truth, knowledge and wisdom. Buddha asks; are you going to follow Solomons lead and proceed through the door with your master key, or are you going to follow Satan?




You say, I'll enter, so Buddha says take your key and open the door and I'll follow you, so you open the door, and step inside, Buddha guides you over to a box, made of stone about twelve inches by six inches by two inches.



He says you can open it and therein find all truth, knowledge and wisdom, or you can follow Satan and go and gather up the gold, diamonds, ruby's and emeralds and be on your way, but if you wish to remain among us you must open the box.



So I stare Satan right in the face and proclaim that you have no power over me, and to be gone at once, with that done, I placed my hands on the stone lid to the box and started to lift it, after completely removin2 the lid, I leaned over ever so slowly to see what was inside, I looked, and I thought what a cruel joke Buddha had played on me.



There was only a mirror in the box, and upon looking inside only saw my own reflection. But it had a white auric glow about it, it was the energy of God emanating from my being, it was wonderful! then I heard Buddha laughing, then I to started laughing, because I had now realized why he was laughing, because I had found truth, I had found wisdom and knowledge, I had stared it right in the face, then Buddha said to me, go now and proclaim your riches. With that said, I did Just that.




Tell no man of the secrets you have learned in this book, it will only cause you sorrow, you bought this book, you alone seeked this knowledge, you alone are ready for these truths, not your friends, not your parents, not even your brother. Do not cast pearls amongst swine, they will step on it, and if you are of weak mind, you will likely follow suit, and what a grave mistake that would be.




It's alright to share this knowledge with someone whom is already as advanced as yourself, but be careful! This knowledge came to you as a direct result of some effort on you part, not someone elses




A wise man accepts truth and takes action, a fool laughs and makes a mockery of wisdom, which is the result of his EGO, his BIG I, he has never learned to humble himself before nature, before Universal Mind. " The humble in spirit shall inherit the earth." The devil is the EGO, greed, the lust for power only for powers sake, the want of money for self only.

HOME












A Walk in the World


Joseph Campbell and Jiddu Krishnamurti


My ongoing reading of Joseph Campbell's life has taken me into new directions and into new literary terrain I have not frequented; it's exciting. Joseph Campbell--on a steam boat from Europe to America in 1924 prodigiously encountered


Jiddu Krishnamurti , a famous speaker of religious and spiritual material, and later said that the serendipitous meeting changed his life.


Campbell would encounter Krishnamurti several more times during the 1920s but his last visit occurred in 1929 when he went to hear Krishnamurti speak in Eerde, Holland . Krishnamurti was considered by some theosophists to be the "World Teacher," but he later disbanded the group ( Order of the Star) in 1929 which had sprung up around him.


Campbell was so inspired by Krishnamurti's words while at Eerde, he offered the following to his journal:


"So here I hang between my past and my future trying to fan a spark to flame a spark which came as the final gift from my past. And now I feel that the old shell of the Joe who was searching and never quite finding lies somewhere in the woods which are about Krishna's castle. -


But through the shell was a fairly huge thing, the creature which stepped out of it is microscopic in size! Sometimes I lose him amidst all the rubbish of my old feelings and I never have seen him stand up on his own feet and walk. But this tiny spark of what I hope to be this glimmer of gold which I've discovered at last in the midst of disillusions this thing is what I'm going home now to nourish, and to build into something " ( An Open Mind , p. 113).



Krishnamurti said:



All gurus are welfare organizations providing petty experiences to their followers. The guru game is a profitable industry.



The fact is that we don't want to be free. What is responsible for our problems is the fear of losing what we have and what we know. All these therapies, all these techniques, religious or otherwise, are only perpetuating the agony of man.



U. G. Krishnamurti

No, no not that Krishnamurti, "World Teacher," "The Light of the East," all that nonsense. No, this is another one, a different one, a far different one, a guy who "hates" enlightenment, one who says, "You see one holy man, you've seen them all."

He has met the other Krishnamurti, J. Krishnamurti spent seven years with him and says, finally: "His teaching did not interest me at all." At the end, he said to "J,"



"What the hell are we doing? I've wasted seven years. Goodbye. I don't want to see you again." Then I walked out.



This Krishnamurti married, was prosperous, had children and one day he left his family so he could let his soul "wither." He ultimately found the Truth. Where? In what he calls "a strip tease joint," where he realized, at age forty, that he didn't know whether I was the dancer or whether there was some other dancer dancing on the stage.




There was no division; there was nobody who was looking at the dancer. The question of whether I was the dancer or whether there was a dancer out there on the stage puzzled me. This kind of peculiar experience of the absence of division between me and the dancer puzzled me and bothered me for some time.



Can you imagine getting enlightened in the Casino de Paris?



He refers to finding this Truth as "a calamity." With his "declutched mind," he went through shaking, wringing, pain, helplessness, thinking there were bugs in his bed, months of agony, every cell changing, clanging. He found himself a man/woman, with a fully formed breast on the left side, all his chakras swollen, painful.



"It took three years for this body to fall into a new rhythm of its own," he says. This change this excruciatingly painful change cannot be prepared for, cannot be sought, comes unasked and unwanted.



We are not created for any grander purpose than the ants that are there or the flies that are hovering around us or the mosquitoes that are sucking our blood.



Most of all, he tells us, enlightenment should not be of interest to anyone. Why? This spiritual Indian Yoga/mysticism business is "poppycock." What happens in a state of real change, "is a primordial consciousness, untouched by thought."



You have a feeling that there is a "cameraman" who is directing the eyes Movement attracts them, or brightness or a color that stands out from whatever is around it. There is no "I" looking. Mountains, flowers, trees, cows all look at me.


There is nothing inside us, Krishnamurti claims heroism, wisdom, virtue, insight, vision. No, there is nothing inside all of us but fear; and meditation leads nowhere but to the looney bin.




Books are meaningless, he tells us. Reading his words is futile. Get it? We are reading a book of a man who says reading a book about him and what he says is futile, a waste of time, useless. And when he is asked pregnant questions like "What will happen after death?" he responds.









All questions about death are meaningless, especially for a young person like you. You have not even lived your life. Why do you ask that silly question? Only a person who is not living asks "What will happen after my death?" You are not living. First live your life, and when the time comes. Let us leave it at that. I am not interested in that kind of philosophy.


This one is great. He can't stand the guru stuff. He is the anarcho-syndicalist of the mystical world, the Kropotkin of the New Age, the Bakunin of all that touchy-feely nonsense.


A breath of fresh air? No, more: he's a hurricane of no-nonsense, a firestorm of indifference to this bliss crap.



If you think you are on The Way, read him. You have everything to gain, nothing to lose but your arrogance. The only thing you can win is the chance to forget your pretence of Being on the Path.

Deb Das

The plain fact is that if you don't have a problem, you create one. If you don't have a problem you don't feel that you are living.







Bruce Lee was heavily influenced by the teachings of Krishnamurti and applied his considerations to the martial arts.



Inspired to explore kung fu and other systems for himself, Bruce Lee revolutionised the approach to learning a martial art.








By accepting no man as their master, a martial artist could be free to learn according to inclination and interest instead of being bound by the past.










Concerning the Jun Fan Jeet Kune Do Nucleus, our on-going endeavor has been to walk the tight rope between doing the very thing Bruce asked us not to do (namely "make a fuss" and say that Jeet Kune Do is different from this or that) on the one side, while still preserving the integrity of Bruce's teachings so that he may receive the appropriate recognition for the great contribution he has made to mankind.




Bruce did not want Jeet Kune Do to be called an art, but unfortunately he is not with us and there is a core curriculum that needs to be preserved for future generations.




There is much to be said for the attainment of a goal, achieving the end result, but what about the process? It is plain to see the level Bruce attained when, for example, one watches his films.




However the process, the journey, is what is interesting and unique to each human being. How did Bruce get there? How did he attain such a great level of mastery? This is what most people want to know. By using Bruce's example of progression as a guide not a mold for our own experiences, we, too, can find ourselves.




Both Bruce Lee and Krishnamurti believed that there are no paths to truth but th we make for ourselves. Truth cannot be attained by following anyone else's way; you cannot understand it by anyone else's pattern of thinking. Truth is the ultimate goal for each of us, no matter what area of life we choose to address.




Let Bruce's teachings be what he intended them to be: "a finger pointing to the moon," illuminating our paths toward liberation. In the spirit of Bruce and Krishnamurti, don't accept anything as truth until you discover truth for yourself.








Silence Is Golden

In some Asian traditions, such as the Tibetan, energy is often referred to as speech. Thats because speech expends a tremendous amount of breath and energy, and unless it comes out in the form of mantras, chants, or prayers, speech is usually undisciplined, uneven, and often unnecessary.



The motor mouth syndrome that seems to infect many people in crowded urban environments exhaust energy reserves and can actually lower resistance and impair immunity.




As the Tao Master and Martial Artist Chang San-feng Said 600 years ago: Forget about words and your energy wont scatter. The Taoist Adept and Writer Liu I-ming agrees: When the mouth speaks, energy scatters.




Unless you have something important to say, its always best to keep your lips buttoned, because idle gossip and marathon monologues are like leaking tires: they permit your energy to escape and leave you flat. Silence is an effective way to conserve energy for more important internal uses.




Disease comes in through the mouth and disaster comes out through the mouth. The first is obvious: open mouths invite germs, dust, and airborne toxins to enter our systems. The second clause refers to the fact that we often create our own personal disasters by talking too much too carelessly, thereby offending others, revealing things about ourselves that should be kept secret, making bad impressions on people, and so forth.




So choose your words carefully, speak soft, and don't say any more than whats necessary.



K


To look at myself without any formula can one do that? Otherwise you can't learn about yourself obviously. If I say, I am jealous, the very verbalization of that fact, or of that feeling, has already conditioned it. Right? Therefore I cannot see anything further in it.






Now the question is: can the mind be free of this egocentric activity? Right? That is really the question, not whether it is so or not. Which means can the mind stand alone, uninfluenced? Alone, being alone does not mean isolation.





Sir, look: when one rejects completely all the absurdities of nationality, the absurdities of propaganda, of religious propaganda, rejects conclusions of any kind, actually, not theoretically, completely put aside, has understood very deeply the question of pleasure and fear, and division the `me' and the `not me'is there any form of the self at all?






"What Krishnamurti has done is to free spiritual life as science has done in other areas. He has maintained that one can be in total freedom from the very beginning to the very end, and he has stood for that, like a rock, for forty years. I think it may well take the world fifty more years to understand that. I think he is the man of tomorrow." Vimala Thakar




The core of Krishnamurti's teaching is contained in the statement he made in 1929 when he said: "Truth is a pathless land." Man cannot come to it through any organization, through any creed, through any dogma, priest or ritual, not through any philosophic knowledge or psychological technique.




He has to find it through the mirror of relationship, through the understanding of the contents of his own mind, through observation and not through intellectual analysis or introspective dissection. Man has built in himself images as a fence of security religious, political, personal.




These manifest as symbols, ideas, beliefs. The burden of these images dominates man's thinking, his relationships and his daily life. These images are the causes of our problems for they divide man from man. His perception of life is shaped by the concepts already established in his mind.




The content of his consciousness is his entire existence. This content is common to all humanity. The individuality is the name, the form and superficial culture he acquires from tradition and environment. The uniqueness of man does not lie in the superficial but in complete freedom from the content of his consciousness, which is common to all mankind. So he is not an individual.




Freedom is not a reaction; freedom is not choice. It is man's pretence that because he has choice, he is free. Freedom is pure observation without direction, without fear of punishment and reward.




Freedom is without motive; freedom is not at the end of the evolution of man but lies in the first step of his existence. In observation one begins to discover the lack of freedom. Freedom is found in the choiceless awareness of our daily existence and activity.




Thought is time. Thought is born of experience and knowledge which are inseparable from time and the past. Time is the psychological enemy of man. Our action is based on knowledge and therefore time, so man is always a slave to the past. Thought is ever-limited and so we live in constant conflict and struggle.





There is no psychological evolution. When man becomes aware of the movement of his own thoughts he will see the division between the thinker and the thought, the observer and the observed, the experiencer and the experience.




He will discover that this division is an illusion. Then only is there pure observation which is insight without any shadow of the past or of time. This timeless insight brings about a deep radical mutation in the mind.




Total negation is the essence of the positive. When there is negation of all those things that thought has brought about psychologically, only then is there love, which is compassion and intelligence.






by J Krishnamurti


We are going to discuss this morning the dissolution of the Order of the Star. Many people will be delighted, and others will be rather sad. It is a question neither for rejoicing nor for sadness, because it is inevitable, as I am going to explain.




You may remember the story of how the devil and a friend of his were walking down the street, when they saw ahead of them a man stoop down and pick up something from the ground, look at it, and put it away in his pocket.



The friend said to the devil, "What did that man pick up?" "He picked up a piece of Truth," said the devil. "That is a very bad business for you, then," said his friend. "Oh, not at all," the devil replied, "I am going to let him organize it."




I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect. That is my point of view, and I adhere to that absolutely and unconditionally.




Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organized; nor should any organization be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path.



If you first understand that, then you will see how impossible it is to organize a belief. A belief is purely an individual matter, and you cannot and must not organize it. If you do, it becomes dead, crystallized; it becomes a creed, a sect, a religion, to be imposed on others.



This is what everyone throughout the world is attempting to do. Truth is narrowed down and made a plaything for those who are weak, for those who are only momentarily discontented.




Truth cannot be brought down, rather the individual must make the effort to ascend to it. You cannot bring the mountain-top to the valley. If you would attain to the mountain-top you must pass through the valley, climb the steeps, unafraid of the dangerous precipices.




This understanding is necessary because your belief has not transformed you but only complicated you, and because you are not willing to face things as they are.




You want to have your own gods new gods instead of the old, new religions instead of the old, new forms instead of the old all equally valueless, all barriers, all limitations, all crutches. Instead of old spiritual distinctions you have new spiritual distinctions, instead of old worships you have new worships.




You are all depending for your spirituality on someone else, for your happiness on someone else, for your enlightenment on someone else; and although you have been preparing for me for eighteen years, when I say all these things are unnecessary, when I say that you must put them all away and look within yourselves for the enlightenment, for the glory, for the purification, and for the incorruptibility of the self, not one of you is willing to do it. There may be a few, but very, very few.




As I said before, my purpose is to make men unconditionally free, for I maintain that the only spirituality is the incorruptibility of the self which is eternal, is the harmony between reason and love.


This is the absolute, unconditioned Truth which is Life itself. I want therefore to set man free, rejoicing as the bird in the clear sky, unburdened, independent, ecstatic in that freedom .





And I, for whom you have been preparing for eighteen years, now say that you must be free of all these things, free from your complications, your entanglements. For this you need not have an organization based on spiritual belief.




Why have an organization for five or ten people in the world who understand, who are struggling, who have put aside all trivial things? And for the weak people, there can be no organization to help them to find the Truth, because Truth is in everyone; it is not far, it is not near; it is eternally there.





Organizations cannot make you free. No man from outside can make you free; nor can organized worship, nor the immolation of yourselves for a cause, make you free; nor can forming yourselves into an organization, nor throwing yourselves into works, make you free. You use a typewriter to write letters, but you do not put it on an altar and worship it. But that is what you are doing when organizations become your chief concern.




How many members are there in it?” That is the first question I am asked by all newspaper reporters.




How many followers have you? By their number we shall judge whether what you say is true or false.” I do not know how many there are. I am not concerned with that. As I said, if there were even one man who had been set free, that were enough.






Again, you have the idea that only certain people hold the key to the Kingdom of Happiness. No one holds it. No one has the authority to hold that key. That key is your own self, and in the development and the purification and in the incorruptibility of that self alone is the Kingdom of Eternity.




So you will see how absurd is the whole structure that you have built, looking for external help, depending on others for your comfort, for your happiness, for your strength. These can only be found within yourselves.




You are accustomed to being told how far you have advanced, what is your spiritual status. How childish! Who but yourself can tell you if you are beautiful or ugly within? Who but yourself can tell you if you are incorruptible? You are not serious in these things.




But those who really desire to understand, who are looking to find that which is eternal, without beginning and without an end, will walk together with a greater intensity, will be a danger to everything that is unessential, to unrealities, to shadows. And they will concentrate, they will become the flame, because they understand. Such a body we must create, and that is my purpose. Because of that real understanding there will be true friendship.




Because of that true friendship which you do not seem to know there will be real cooperation on the part of each one. And this not because of authority, not because of salvation, not because of immolation for a cause, but because you really understand, and hence are capable of living in the eternal. This is a greater thing than all pleasure, than all sacrifice.




So these are some of the reasons why, after careful consideration for two years, I have made this decision. It is not from a momentary impulse. I have not been persuaded to it by anyone.





My only concern is to set men absolutely, unconditionally free.”



Observing Without the "Me"


First Public Talk given by J. Krishnamurti,

Brockwood Park, England, September 5, 1970




I am so glad it is such a nice morning. A beautiful sky and lovely countryside. But I am afraid this is not a weekend entertainment. What we shall talk about is quite serious, and perhaps after I have talked a little we can talk over, discuss, or dialogue, or talk over together what we have talked about.




I don't know how you feel about what is happening in the world, in our environment, to our culture and society.



It seems to me there is so much chaos, so much contradiction and so much strife and war, hatred and sorrow. And various leaders, both political and religious, try to find an answer either in some ideology, or in some belief, or in a cultivated faith.




And none of these things seems to answer the problems. Our problems go on endlessly. And if we could in these four talks in this tent and the two discussions that are to take place, if we could be serious enough to go into this question of how to bring about, not only in ourselves but in society, a revolution, not physical revolution because that only leads to tyranny and the heightened control of bureaucracy.




If we could very deeply find out for ourselves what to do, not depending on any authority, including that of the speaker, or on a book, on a philosophy, on any structural behavioral pattern, but actually find out irrevocably, if one can, what to do about all this confusion, this strife, this extraordinary, contradictory, hypocritical life one leads.




To me it seems to be fairly clear that to observe there must be freedom. Not only the outward phenomenon, but also to observe what is going on within ourselves, to observe without any prejudice, without taking any side, but to examine very closely, freely




The whole process of our thinking and our activity, our pleasures, fears, and all the things that we have built around ourselves, not only outwardly but in ourselves as a form of resistance, compulsive demands, escapes and so on. If we could do that consistently, with full intention,


to discover for ourselves a way of living that is not contradictory, then perhaps these talks will be worthwhile. Otherwise it will be another lecture, another entertainment, pleasurable or rather absurd, logical or illogical and so on. So if we could completely give ourselves to the examination, to observe intimately what is going on, both outwardly and inwardly.



Now the difficulty in this lies, it seems to me, the capacity to observe, to see things as they are, not as we would like them to be, or what they should be, but actually what is going on. To so observe has its own discipline, not the discipline of imitation, or compulsion,



or conformity but that very observation brings its own discipline, not imposed, not conforming to any particular pattern, which implies suppression, but to observe. After all when you do observe something very closely, or listen to somebody very fully, that very listening and seeing, in that is implied attention. And where there is attention there is discipline, without being disciplined.



If that is clear, the next point is, in observing there is always the observer. The observer who, with his prejudices, with his conditionings, with his fears and guilts and all the rest of it, he is the observer, the censor, and through his eyes he looks, and therefore he is really not looking at all, he is merely coming to conclusions based upon his past experiences and knowledge. The past experiences, conclusions and knowledge prevent actually seeing.



And when there is such an observer and what he observes is something different, or something which he has to conquer, or change and so on; whereas if the observer is the observed.



I think this is really a radical thing to understand, really the most important thing to understand if we are going to discuss anything seriously: that in us there is this division, this contradiction, the observer and the many fragments which he observes. The many fragments make up the `me', the ego, the personality, whatever you like to call it, the many fragments.


And one of the fragments becomes the observer, or the censor, and that fragment looks over the various other fragments. Please do this as we are talking, not agreeing or disagreeing, but observe this fact that is going on within oneself; it becomes terribly interesting and rather fun if you go at it very, very seriously.




We are made up of many fragments, each contradicting the other. Both linguistically, factually and theoretically. Contradictory desires, contradictory pursuits, ambitions that deny affection, love and so on one is aware of these fragments. And who is the observer who decides what he should do, what he should think, what he should become? Surely one of the fragments.



He becomes the analyzer, he assumes the authority. One fragment, among the many other fragments, assumes the censorship, and he becomes the actor, the doer, compelling other fragments to conform and therefore brings about contradiction.




I don't know if we see this very clearly? Then what is one to do, knowing most of us are made up of these many fragments, which fragment is to act? Or are all the fragments to act? You are following? Or action by any one of the fragments brings about contradiction, conflict and therefore confusion. Right?




Are we communicating with each other? Comunication being thinking together. Not only verbally, but understanding together, going together, creating together.







One fragment believes in god, or doesn't believe in god, and another fragment wants a security, not only physical but psychological security. One fragment is afraid, another fragment tries to dominate that fear. Seeing this extraordinary contradiction in ourselves, what is one to do? The fragments cannot be integrated, which implies there is an integrator. Right?




That is, the integrator becomes another fragment. So it is not integration, it is not one fragment which assumes a superior position as the higher self, or the most intellectual thing and dominates the rest. Or one fragment which feels greatly emotional and tries to function along emotional lines.




So seeing this very clearly, what is the action that will be total, that will not be contradictory? And who is it that is seeing the whole fragments?



Is it another fragment that says, `I observe all the many other fragments'? Are we moving together? Or there is only observation without the observer. Can we go along? You understand my question?




Is there an observation, the seeing, without the `me' as the observer seeing? And therefore creating a duality, a division.




That's really our problem, isn't it, basically? We have divided the world, the geographical world, as the British, the French, the Indian, the American, Russian and so on, and inwardly we have divided psychologically the world, those who believe and those who do not believe, my country, your country, my god, your god and all the rest of it.



And this division has brought about wars. And a man who would live completely at peace, not only with himself but with the world, has to understand this division, this separation. And can thought bring about this complete, total observation? I don't know if we are going together in this?







Who is responsible for this division? The Catholic, the Protestant, the Communist, the Socialist, the Muslim, the Hindu? You follow? This division that is going on within, outwardly and inwardly who is responsible? The Pope?




The Archbishop? The politicians? Who is it? Is it thought? The intellect? Can thought observe without division? You follow? We observe or thought observes all the many factors of these divisions; and is it not thought itself that has brought about this division, the intellect?




And the intellect is one of the divisions, one of the fragmentations and that intellect has become extraordinarily important, which is thought. Right? For us thought is the most extraordinarily important thing, the intellect.




And we hope to solve all the problems of our life through thought, don't we? By thinking over a problem, trying to suppress it or give free reigns to it. Thought is the factor, is the instrument, which is always observing. Right?




Now that is, thought is one of the fragments. You don't live by thought, you have your feelings, you appetites, your pleasures. So if thought breeds contradiction, as yours and mine, as heaven and hell and all the rest of it, then how shall we observe, see, without the fragment which we call thought? I do not know if you have ever put this question to yourself.



Thought is after all the response of the past, memories. Thought is never free, and with that thought, with that instrument, we are always looking at life, always responding to every challenge with thought.




Now can we observe with eyes, with a mind that is not shaped by thought? That is, can we observe without any conclusion, without any prejudice, without being committed to any particular theory or action?



Which means to observe with eyes that have learnt about these many factors, fragments, which make up the `me'. That is, as long as there is no self-knowing, as long as I do not know myself completely and thoroughly, I must function in fragments. And how to observe myself, how to learn about myself, without the censor intervening in observation. Are we getting together?




Look, I want to learn about myself because I see how extraordinarily important it is if I am at all to understand the world, action and a new way of living altogether.



I have to understand myself not according to some philosopher, psychologist however learned. I want to learn about myself as actually what I am, without any distortion, without suppressing anything, what I am both consciously as well as unconsciously. I want to know myself completely. Now how shall I learn? How shall I learn about what I am?




To learn there must be a certain passion, a great deal of curiousity, without any assumption, taking things for granted, to look at myself without any formula. Can one do that? Otherwise you can't learn about yourself, obviously.




If I say, `I am jealous,' the very verbalization of that fact, or of that feeling, has already conditioned it. Right? Therefore I cannot see anything further in it. So there must be a learning about the usage of words, not to be caught in words, and the realization that the word, the description, is not the described or the thing.



So to look, to learn about oneself there must be freedom from all conclusion. I am ugly, I don't want to look at myself. I don't know what I shall find in myself.




I am afraid to look at myself. You know all the things that we have come up with. So, can one observe without any sense of condemnation? Because if there is condemnation it is one of the fragments that has gathered, that has been conditioned by a particular society or culture in which it lives.



If you are a Catholic you are conditioned 2,000 years of propaganda has conditioned your mind, and with that mind you observe. And in that observation there is already condemnation, justification, therefore you don't learn. Right? The act of learning implies there must be freedom from the past. Obviously.








Now we are learning together here and is one free from the culture that has conditioned the mind? Being born as a Hindu or a Muslim, of centuries of propaganda don't do this, do this, believe in this, don't believe in that has conditioned the mind. And such a mind says.



I am going to learn about myself. It doesn't realize that it is conditioned, and a conditioned mind cannot possibly learn. Therefore it must be free of its conditioning I don't know if you are following all this? Are you? You know what that implies when you say, Yes, we are'?





Not to be an Englishman, or a Frenchman, not to belong to any religion, not to have any prejudice, not to come to any conclusion, which means freedom. And it is only such a mind that can learn about itself.



Therefore one has to be aware of one's conditioning? Then the problem arises: who is to be aware of the conditioning? You follow? There is only conditioning, not, to be aware of the conditioning.





I don't know if you see this? The moment I am aware of my conditioning there is a duality, isn't there? I who am aware of my particular conditioning and hence the one who is aware wants to change his conditioning, break it down, be free from it.






Therefore that creates conflict. Right? All division is bound to create conflict. Right? Sir, look, the Catholic and the Protestant, you have got a very good example. Any division is bound to bring about contradiction, conflict and strife.




If I say, I will be aware of my conditioning, there is immediately a contradiction, a separation. So to be aware of one's conditioning.





You see? I am going to be aware of my conditioning, is one thing. And the other is to be aware of it. Non-verbally, because the word is not the thing, and therefore the actual perception of it.



Can you do this? Not that this a group therapy, or analysis--for god's sake none of all that stuff but actually is one aware of this conditioning? To be aware that I am a Hindu. Awareness implies looking, being aware, without any choice. The moment you have choice it is a fragmentation.



So can you observe yourself without any image of yourself? The image of yourself is the conditioning. Right? And to observe without any image, which means I don't know what I am, I am going to find out.




In that there is no assumption, conclusion, therefore the mind is free to observe, to learn. Right? But in learning the moment there is an accumulation you have stopped learning. Look sir, suppose I have observed myself and I see I am this, as a fact, and from that observation I have learnt something about myself.




Having learnt about myself is the past. Right? With that past knowledge I am going to observe, therefore I cease to observe. It is only the past that is observing. Right? So can I, can the mind observe without accumulating?




You understand the problem? Just look at the problem first, not what to do. When you understand the problem very clearly action follows naturally. I observe myself and through that observation I have learnt something. After having learnt, I further observe.




Having learnt more, I go on to observe, therefore the observer becomes the analyzer. Right? Right? Please do see this. Let's go along. The observer, the analyzer, is the result of many things he has learnt about himself, and with the eyes of the past, as the analyzer, as the person who has accumulated knowledge, he examines, he looks, he learns. So the past is always trying to learn of what is going on in the present. Is this clear?



So can there be a learning, that is, watching, observing, without any sense of accumulation, so that the mind is always fresh to learn? It is only such a mind that is a free mind. So can the mind be free of thought in observing, in learning?



Because you see one wants to learn, naturally, seeing the transient nature of our life, the exhaustion of pleasure revived by thought, given continuity to pleasure by thought, seeing how everything comes to an end, one wants to find out if there is anything which is beyond, which is transcendental.



Which is something other than this daily routine, daily boredom, daily occupation, daily worry. After all that is what religions promise: seek god, love god. But to learn if there is anything that is beyond thought, beyond the intellect, beyond the routine, one must be free of all beliefs, mustn't one? Which doesn't mean you become an atheist. The atheists and the believers are both the same.



I want to find out seriously if there is something which is beyond `what is', which means the mind must be totally free of any fear otherwise fear will project something that will give it a comfort. So I must learn all about fear, the mind must be enquiring into this whole terrible problem of fear. If the mind wants to find out anything that is beyond the imagination,



the myth, the symbol, man has projected as god, the mind must be free of all that to find out. And it cannot possibly find out if there is any form of fear. And we are frightened human beings. So can the mind learn the whole nature of fear, not only the conscious fears but the deep-rooted fears of which most of us are unaware?




So from that arises the question: how are the unconscious fears to be revealed, to be exposed? Are you following all this? Is it to be exposed through analysis, which means the analyzer, which means a fragment who is going to analyze.




Or through dreams discover all the fears, and that is a perilous road, to find out through dreams what we are because dreams are merely the continuation of what we are during the daily life, waking hours. No? Is all this too much in one morning?



Audience: No.



K: Good. So how is the mind, which has divided in itself as the conscious and the unconscious, which again is a division, therefore contradiction, how is the mind to be aware of this whole structure and nature of consciousness? The me? You follow? Without division. And there are hidden parts in the mind,


deep down in the darkest corners of our minds, all kinds of things going on. Nothing extraordinary, it is as silly as the conscious mind, the things of the conscious mind. So how is all that to be exposed? Not through analysis obviously.



Right? It you really see that, the impossibility, the danger, the falseness of analysis , I hope there aren't any analysts here, bad luck if there are if you really see that, your mind then is free to observe without analysis. I don't know if you see that.



Look sir, let's be very simple about this. Analysis implies time. Right? Analysis implies the analyzer who is different from the thing analyzed. And is the analyzer different from the thing he wants to analyze?





Surely they are both the same only he, a fragment, has assumed the part, the knowledge, the assumption that he is different and he is going to analyze. And each analysis must be complete. Right? Otherwise you carry over the misunderstandings of your analysis to the next analysis. Time, division as the analyzer,



each analysis must be complete, finished each time, which are all impossible. If you see the truth of that, the actual fact of it, then you are free of it, aren't you? Are you? If you are free of it then you have quite a different mind that is going to observe.




You see the difference? If there is the freedom from the false and analysis is the false then my mind is free from the burden of that which has been false, therefore it is free to look.



Now can the mind look at the totality of consciousness without any division as the observer watching the whole structure of consciousness? I don't know if you are following all this?. Is this all becoming rather complex?





If it is complex, life is complex. And to learn about oneself you have to face this extraordinarily complex entity called the `me'. You have to learn about it, and that's what we are doing, we are getting educated about ourselves.




So, can the mind observe the totality of itself? Look, we are human beings at least supposed to be only we have divided ourselves into various nationalities, religious beliefs, and so on.





When you observe, that is, when you go beyond all nationalities and religious beliefs, we are aggressive, brutal, violent, pleasure-seeking people, frightened and so on, and we have to learn all about that, which is ourselves. And to learn about ourselves we see analysis has no answer at all. On the contrary analysis prevents action,



denies action. So can the mind observe the totality of itself, look at itself without any division? Then there is no need for analysis or for the hidden things to be exposed, you see the whole thing.




Therefore in that observation you may discover fear. Fear and pleasure are the two principal things in us, driving forces, demanding more and more and more pleasure, and warding off fear. Right? Now what do you do with pleasure? You want more of it,




surely both physical, psychological pleasures. And in looking at pleasure very closely, one asks oneself: what is it? what is pleasure? Please sirs, do discuss with me. Come together. What is pleasure to you? Physical sensation, psychological factors.



Q: For me pleasure is an escape.


K: For me, the gentleman says, pleasure is an escape. Escape from what? Am I escaping through pleasure? Escaping from fear of not having pleasure? Do look at it. Please sirs do look at yourselves and you will find out very simply this thing. Most of us are pursuing pleasure, aren't we? Why? Not that we should or should not. It would be absurd to say, `Don't have pleasure', when you look at the sky and the trees and the lovely countryside there is a delight. But why this pursuit of pleasure?

Q:I feel that I sustain myself in pursuing pleasure.

K: Sustain yourself? Who is yourself? This is much more complex than that.


Do go into it a little bit. First of all let's be very clear what we mean by pleasure. Pleasure is entirely different from joy, isn't it? No? When you are joyous, when you think about it, it becomes pleasure doesn't it?


Q: Pleasure is a stimulus.
K: Obviously a stimulus.



We know all how pleasure comes about. It is a stimulus. All right. Go into it please. Look at the pleasures you have. And also you have at rare moments great joy, don't you? Sudden burst of joy.



Is there a difference between the two? Look, you have suddenly, as you are walking along you feel extraordinarily happy, and the moment you think about it, has gone. No? No? At that moment of great joy there is no thinker. The thinker comes in and says, `I wish I could have that extraordinary moment again.'





So the thinker has made joy into pleasure by thinking about it. No? So there is a difference between joy and pleasure. I have had pleasure. Somebody said something nice. I have had sexual pleasure. I have had pleasure in achievement, in success, in making a name for myself. And that pleasure is something entirely different from enjoyment, from joy. No?




Q: Joy is in the now.



K: Yes, joy is in the now, pleasure is something which happened yesterday and I want to repeat it today. I think about the thing that gave me pleasure yesterday and the very thinking about that pleasure sustains that thing which was called pleasurable yesterday.





No? So thought sustains pleasure, doesn't it? And also thought sustains fear. No? You are uncertain about that? I might lose my job; I am not so nice looking as you, not so clever; I might die tomorrow; I am lonely; I want to be loved; I may not be loved, and so on. Thought does both, sustains both doesn't it? fear as well as pleasure. No?






So what are you going to do about it? Put an end to thought, knowing thought breeds and sustains and nourishes these two. And to escape from this pattern we go off. Right? We turn to meditation, we turn to Zen, we turn to you know, become Communist, Socialist, oh, a dozen things.





To escape from this pattern we become terribly religious, or terribly worldly, or revolt against the established order, which is built on this pattern. And the person who revolts creates the same pattern, the same thing in a different pattern. He is still seeking pleasure, avoiding fear.





Then what is one to do? You follow this thing? Because the whole religious structure is based on escaping from this: believe in something marvellous, think about it all the time. But the other thing goes on all the time also.





So there is contradiction in wanting to be free of it, and yet be in it. I don't know if you see all this. So they say, `Suppress thought, control thought, kill the mind'. No? Who is it that is going to suppress thought? You see the danger?





So that whole process of thinking has no meaning whatever. Right? I don't know if you see all this. All escapism has no meaning, whether that escape be in social work, watching football, or attending, going to churches where there is another form of entertainment.



So unless you solve this basic problem, that is, to learn all about it, then only the mind can be free from it. Which means, can the mind observe the various forms of pleasures,


the stimuli and so on, and also all the fears which thought has bred in its search for security. Right? That is, the brain demands that is be completely secure otherwise it can't function properly, efficiently, logically, sanely. Right?




The brain, which is the storehouse of memory, experience, knowledge, and that brain with its thought is constantly seeking safety, security, permanency. And not finding permanency in any relationship husband/wife, you know, relationship then it tries to escape in some form of belief, in some ideology, in some image, in nationalism, in god. You follow? Escape.




So can the mind, knowing all this, that is, learning about all this, which is being educated, educating itself, learning from itself, not from somebody else, because no book can give you all this, no teacher, only one has to learn about oneself completely. Then when one is not self-centered, then perhaps one is able to observe or see something which is beyond all this.


Now Sirs, can we ask, shall we talk, discuss or question?


Q: May I ask a question please? Could you tell me whether unselfishness is real or unreal?

K: Could you tell me whether unselfishness is real or unreal. I wonder what we mean by the word real.

Q: Actual.

K: Actual. Yes.



Need somebody tell me whether I am self-centered or not--the actual fact? What does that mean, selfishness? What does it mean to be self-centered? To be concerned about oneself. Right? Whether that oneself has been identified with the nation, with a belief, with a particular ideological, political system, or that self identified with the family,


it is still `the self'. That is the actual. That is `what is'. That's what we are doing all the time. My family. And in that too there is a division--me and my family. Me with my ambitions, with my greed, with my position. You follow? And the family pursuing also the same thing, isolating each other.





Right? All this is a form of egocentricism, isn't it? That is the actual. That is what is going on in our life daily. I like those who flatter me, who give me comfort; I don't like those who say anything about my belief. You know it all becomes so absurdly childish the whole thing.





Now the question is: can the mind be free of this egocentric activity? Right? That is really the question. Not whether it is so or not. Which means can the mind stand alone, uninfluenced? Alone, being alone does not mean isolation.


Sir, look: when one rejects completely all the absurdities of nationality, the absurdities of propaganda, of religious propaganda, rejects conclusions of any kind, actually, not theoretically, completely put aside, has understood very deeply the question of pleasure and fear, and division he me and the not me is there any form of the self at all?




So one has to be free of all this to find out what it means to live a life in which there is no fear. But you see unfortunately for most of us we have neither the time nor the inclination to pursue this right to the end. Rather, sorry, we have plenty of time but we don't want to do this because we are afraid what might happen.





You see I have my responsibilities to my family, I can't become a monk. You follow? All the excuses that one churns out, which means we do not want to find out how to live without sorrow. And to learn about it one has to become extraordinarily, choicelessly aware of oneself.


Q: May I ask a question? If one could ever, with this choiceless awareness that you speak of, really come to know all the fragments in oneself, would the conflict of seeing these fragments disappear?


K: Would conflict disappear in every form if one became aware? Do you know what it means to be aware? Don't let's make a tremendously complex thing of it--to be aware, see. See the sky, the trees, the green grass, to see the beauty of all that.




And to see the colour of your sweater, which I don't like. To be aware of my like and dislike. It's easy to be aware of things that don't affect me, like the tree, the ocean, the sea and the wind in the leaf, but to be aware of one's dislike, of one's prejudice, of one's vanity, arroganc -you try it, to be aware of it, without any choice, don't say,



It is right' or wrong I must get rid of it', `How absurd to be vain all those are rationalizations of a fact. To be aware of the fact. And in that, when you are so aware, the question arises: who is it that is aware?




When you put that question you are not aware. Right? Do please see it. When you put that question, who is aware, you do not know the meaning of that word or the significance of that word `to be aware', because you are still thinking in terms of division--the one who is to be aware. Is that clear? Yes sir?




Q: I see the enormous need to be aware choicelessly, as you said. And yet as I observe myself this does not occur. In other words the thinker is always intruding, the thinker is always commenting, observing, evaluating.





Am I just to stay with that? In other words I think I recognize the vital need for this not to always see through this past conditioning of the thinker, and yet the thinker continues to evaluate and judge. This does not occur, this choiceless awareness simply does not come into being.



K: You are saying: what is one to do with the observer, with the thinker. Right? Who is always interfering, projecting, who is deciding. Now what do you do? Tell me please. There is your problem. Right? You have all that problem, haven't you? What will you do with it?







Don't please answer me. Look at it first. Look at the question. Be aware of this fact that one is always doing this. I want to see the world as new. I want to see every challenge as something new to which I can respond with freshness, but always the thought is interfering. Right? The observer with his condition, with his past responses, with eyes that are spotted, always interfering. Now what are you going to do? If it is actually your problem, not a theoretical problem, a passionate problem, what will you do?



Q: Find out what causes it.



K:
Now wait.

What causes it? Wait. Wait. Go slow. See what is implied. To say, I am going to find out what causes it, is a part of the analysis, which will take time. Right? I thought you have abandoned analysis.



So what will you do? By finding the cause of it, you may instantly find the cause of it, but will the discovery of the cause free the mind from the censor? Right? Will it?


I know why I am angry, but I am still angry. I know the absurdity of jealousy, but I am still jealous. I have gone into the question of ambition very carefully, and discovered how absurd it is, why I am ambitious because in myself I am really nobody, a rather footling little entity, and I want to be somebody great.





There is the cause. But yet the drive to achieve, to be successful, is still there. So the cause does not free the mind of the thing it wants to understand and be free of. So what am I to do? Please proceed. You'll find out. Analysis will not help. Discovery of the cause will not free the mind.




Q: So we must live it and let it be.


K: Live it and let it be. Let it be what?

Q: What is.


K: What is. What is. What is, is that thought is all the time, as the censor, interfering, judging, evaluating, condemning. That is a fact. Now you see that as poison. Now what will you do? Do you actually see it, or is it just a theory?



Q: Sometimes it is. In flashes you see it and at other times you can't see it.



K: Sometimes you see it, at other times you don't. Is that so? When you see something very dangerous, that pool--you don't, see it sometimes, and, you don't see it, other times. The danger is always there isn't it?



Q: Sometimes you are aware of it and sometimes you forget.

K: Wait. I understand that. What does it mean? You are aware of sometimes, you are unaware of it other times. Right? What will you do? Proceed and you will find out. What will you do? That sometimes you are aware that the censor is operating and therefore preventing clarity, and other times you are unaware of the censor at all, you are just quickly responding.



How will you bring about a total attention? Right? How? A system? A method? Right? Will it? You are doubtful about that, aren't you? A system implies practice doesn't it? Practice day after day of being aware. Right? Which means what? It becomes mechanical doesn't it, therefore it is no longer awareness. Therefore systems of any kind will not bring about attention. So, finished. Right? See what you have learnt. No analysis. Right? No searching out the cause. No system. Right? Now is your mind free of analysis, cause, systems, is it actually free?




Q: At the moment.



K:
Ah, no, no. Not, at the moment. It means you don't see the truth of it, you only see partly what you like to see.



Q: Ignore it.



K: Ignore it! Withdraw? Ignore? Ignore it. How can I? You could ignore it? Ignore what? Ignore that I am thinking absurdly? But that's my whole life. How can I ignore my life?



Q: Your past life.

K: Your past life. Do you know what it means to live in the present?

Q: I am suggesting that you ignore your past life.


K: Sir, do you know what it means to live in the present? To ignore the past. Can I ignore the past? When all my life is the past. No? I am the past. No? The past. All thought is the past. No? Because thought is the response of memory.




Memory is knowledge, experience, which is all the past. Can the mind ignore all that? Because the mind is the past. All the brain cells are the result of the past. And you say,



Ignore it and live in the present'. Do you know what it means to live in the present? Which means to have no time at all, to be free of time. Not so that you will miss the bus I don't mean that.




If you forget time you won't be able to get home. We mean by freedom from time implies freedom from the whole structure of the `me', which is time, which is the past. And one has to learn about all that. You can't say, I'll be free, or ignore it.




Q: Krishnaji, may I ask your advice?



I realize I must find the answer. In this process of observing fragments of oneself there seems to come a sense of guilt of one's shortcomings compared with an established standard of values, also a sense of possible disloyalty because one anticipates having to make a break from certain obligations to responsibilities that one has undertaken. Is this another form of fear? Should one disregard it? And then continue to look with joy and awareness?




K: Yes sir. When I observe myself, the questioner says, please correct me sir if I am not putting it rightly, the questioner says, when I am aware of myself I feel very guilty, I feel various forms of fears, of being irresponsible and so on and so on.




All these things arise when I observe myself. What am I to do? Disloyalty, guilt, wretchedness, feeling miserable, repentance, you know, the whole works that one goes through. Why shouldn't they all come up?




Why shouldn't this feeling of guilt come up? It is there. You are following what I am saying? Let it come but the moment you say it is guilt, it is wrong, it is right, I should have done this, then begins the interference of the censor.




I don't know if you are following all this. Sirs, please, be extraordinarily simple about all this. I observe myself and I find that I have done something ugly and that makes me feel guilty. I want to know why. Why am I guilty about something which I have done? I have done it.





Finished. Right? It has happened. I have told a lie. That's a fact. And no amount of my cunning deception is going to hide it. I am afraid you might find out that I lied. I don't mind. Find out. Be clear, honest about it. You follow what I am saying? I have lied and I feel guilty and I know I have done something ugly. I am going to look at it, I am not going to condemn it.




You know sirs to look at actually `what is', without the censor, it doesn't mean that you become callous, indifferent, on the contrary, you become extraordinarily sensitive. And sensitivity is part of intelligence.




But the moment you condemn it, condemn `what is', then begins all the trouble. But just to look at it, that you have told a lie, that one has been angry, one has been afraid, just to observe. Look sir, you depend, don't you, on people psychologically. No? You depend. Why do you depend? Not that you should not, or should. Why? Because the other gives you comfort, or sustains you psychologically.





Inwardly one is poor and the other gives you a feeling of well-being. One is lonely, therefore you depend on another. You can't stand alone therefore you depend. So there it is. Just to be aware that you depend and not cultivate detachment.




But to be aware that you are dependent because you are lonely. And find out what it means to be lonely. Is it an acknowledgement of isolation? You understand?






Loneliness is a fact of isolation, isn't it?



Completely isolated from everything and one is afraid of that loneliness. Therefore you escape and therefore you depend. If you see this thing, actually see it non-verbally, the fact, because the moment you depend you are afraid, you are jealous, you become aggressive, you lose all sense of affection, love. When you see this whole thing very clearly then the mind is free from all dependency.




Q: What is the dimension and the extent of the mind in relation to space?

K: What is the time sir? I think we had better stop and continue with this tomorrow, shall we? Right sirs.




It is always difficult to keep simple and clear. The world worships success, the bigger the better; the greater the audience the greater the speaker; the colossal super buildings, cars, aeroplanes and people. Simplicity is lost. The successful people are not the ones who are building a new world.





To be a real revolutionary requires a complete change of heart and mind, and how few want to free themselves. One cuts the surface roots; but to cut the deep feeding roots of mediocrity, success, needs something more than words, methods, compulsions. There seem to be few, but they are the real builders me the rest labor in vain.





One is everlastingly comparing oneself with another, with what one is, with what one should be, with someone who is more fortunate.



This comparison really kills. Comparison is degrading, it perverts one's outlook. And on comparison one is brought up. All our education is based on it and so is our culture. So there is everlasting struggle to be something other than what one is. The understanding of what one is uncovers creativeness,


but comparison breeds competitiveness, ruthlessness, ambition, which we think brings about progress. Progress has only led so far to more ruthless wars and misery than the world has ever known. To bring up children without comparison is true education.

excerpts from Krishnamurti texts and recordings

Whenever one strives to convey the essence of something through words, the difficulty is that the word is not the thing itself. Through the past few years, as i've read texts and listened to recordings of Krishnamurti, there were statements that touched something so deeply, I wrote them down.




Of course, whenever one cites a sentence or a passage from someone else, there is always the missing remainder of the complete work being cited, so the complete context of the original citation is not fully apprehended. However, presenting such excerpts to someone who has not encountered the author before, may provide an initial exposure that stimulates further interest and exploration which otherwise might not occur.





In including excerpts here, the hope is that by sharing passages i have found particularly meaningful and insightful, perhaps others will likewise discover something new and fresh.

Truth is a pathless land. You cannot approach it by any religion, any sect. You are accustomed to being told how far you have advanced, what your spiritual state is. How childish. Who but yourself can tell whether you are beautiful or ugly within?
J. Krishnamurti, Holland, 1929



He primary cause of disorder in ourselves is the seeking of reality promised by another. It is a most extraordinary thing that although most of us are opposed to political tyranny and dictatorship, we inwardly accept the authority, the tyranny, of another to twist our minds and our way of life.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, p. 10



In recent years logicians and semanticists have carried out a very thorough analysis of the symbols, in terms of which men do their thinking. Linguistics has become a science, and one may even study a subject to which the late Benjamin Whorf gave the name of meta-linguistics. All this is greatly to the good; but it is not enough.




Logic and semantics, linguistics and meta-linguistics these are purely intellectual disciplines. They analyse the various ways, correct and incorrect, meaningful and meaningless, in which words can be related to things, processes and events.




But they offer no guidance, in regard to the much more fundamental problem of the relationship of man in his psychophysical totality, on the one hand, and his two worlds, of data and of symbols, on the other.




In every region and at every period of history, the problem has been repeatedly solved by individual men and women. Even when they spoke or wrote, these individuals created no systems for they knew that every system is a standing temptation to take symbols too seriously, to pay more attention to words than to the realities for which the words are supposed to stand.



Their aim was never to offer ready-made explanations and panaceas; it was to induce people to diagnose and cure their own ills, to get them to go to the place where man's problem and its solution present themselves directly to experience.

Aldous Huxley from the Introduction to The First and Last Freedom by J. Krishnamurti



It is important to understand, not intellectually but actually in your daily life, how you have built images about your wife, your husband, your neighbor, your child, your country, your leaders, your politicians, your gods you have nothing but images.







The images create the space between you and what you observe and in that space there is conflict, so what we are going to find out now together is whether it is possible to be free of the space we create, not only outside ourselves but in ourselves, the space which divides people in all their relationships.



Now the very attention you give to a problem is the energy that solves that problem. When you give your complete attention




I mean with everything in you there is no observer at all. There is only the state of attention which is total energy, and that total energy is the highest form of intelligence. Naturally that state of mind must be completely silent and that silence, that stillness, comes when there is total attention, not disciplined stillness.





That total silence in which there is neither the observer nor the thing observed is the highest form of a religious mind. But what takes place in that state cannot be put into words because what is said in words is not the fact. To find out for yourself you have to go through it.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, pp. 92-93



Understanding of the self only arises in relationship, in watching yourself in relationship to people, ideas, and things; to trees, the earth, and the world around you and within you. Relationship is the mirror in which the self is revealed. Without self-knowledge there is no basis for right thought and action.

J. Krishnamurti, Krishnamurti, A Biography by Pupul Jayakar, p. 142



Is the problem not one of refusing to accept a leader? This alone brings equality in social and economic relationships. When thrown on his own responsibility, man will inevitably question. And in questioning there is no higher, no lower.





Any system based on acceptance of capacity differences to establish status must inevitably lead to a hierarchical society, and so breed class war. What is it that gives dignity to man? Self-knowledge the knowledge of what you are? The follower is the greatest curse.

J. Krishnamurti, Krishnamurti, A Biography by Pupul Jayakar, pp. 146-7



It is tradition, the accumulation of experience, the ashes of memory, that make the mind old. The mind that dies every day to the memories of yesterday, to all the joys and sorrows of the past--such a mind is fresh, innocent, it has no age; and without that innocence, whether you are ten or sixty, you will not find God.


J. Krishnamurti, Think on These Things



We think that living is always in the present and that dying is something that awaits us at a distant time. But we have never questioned whether this battle of everyday life is living at all.





We want to know the truth about reincarnation, we want proof of the survival of the soul, we listen to the assertion of clairvoyants and to the conclusions of psychical research, but we never ask, never, how to live to live with delight, with enchantment, with beauty every day.




We have accepted life as it is with all its agony and despair and have got used to it, and think of death as something to be carefully avoided. But death is extraordinarily like life when we know how to live. You cannot live without dying. You cannot live if you do not die psychologically every minute.







This is not an intellectual paradox. To live completely, wholly, every day as if it were a new loveliness, there must be dying to everything of yesterday, otherwise you live mechanically, and a mechanical mind can never know what love is or what freedom is.

Krishnamurti, Freedom From The Known, p. 76-77


We are always comparing what we are with what we should be. The should-be is a projection of what we think we ought to be. Contradiction exists when there is comparison, not only with something or somebody, but with what you were yesterday, and hence there is conflict between what has been and what is.




There is what is only when there is no comparison at all, and to live with what is, is to be peaceful. Then you can give your whole attention without any distraction to what is within yourself whether it be despair, ugliness, brutality, fear, anxiety, loneliness and live with it completely; then there is no contradiction and hence no conflict.

Krishnamurti, Freedom From The Known, p. 63

J. Krishnamurti, Krishnamurti, A Biography, by Pupul Jayakar, pp. 255-256



Our brains have become so small by the words we have used. When one speaks to a group of scientists, specialists in various disciplines one sees that their lives have become so small. They are measuring everything in terms of words, experiences. And it is not a matter of word or experience. Words are limited; all experiences are limited. They cover a very small area.


J. Krishnamurti, Krishnamurti, A Biography,
by Pupul Jayakar, p. 488



To allow the free flow of life, without any residue being left, is real awareness. The human mind is like a sieve which holds some things and lets others go. What it holds is the size of its own desires; and desires, however profound, vast noble, are small, are petty, for desire is a thing of the mind.




Not to retain, but to have the freedom of life to flow without restraint, without choice, is complete awareness. We are always choosing or holding, choosing the things that have significance and everlastingly holding on to them.




This we call experience, and the multiplication of experiences we call the richness of life. The richness of life is the freedom from the accumulation of experience. The experience that remains, that is held, prevents that state in which the known is not. The known is not the treasure, but the mind clings to it and thereby destroys or defiles the unknown.



Life is a strange business. Happy is the man who is nothing


Don't let problems take root. Go through them rapidly, cut through them as through butter. Don't let them leave a mark, finish with them as they arise. You can't help having problems, but finish with them immediately.


J. Krishnamurti, Krishnamurti, A Biography,
by Pupul Jayakar, pp. 263, 273



All authority of any kind, especially in the field of thought and understanding, is the most destructive, evil thing. Leaders destroy the followers and followers destroy the leaders. You have to be your own teacher and your own disciple. You have to question everything that man has accepted as valuable, as necessary.



J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, p. 21



As most of our education is the acquisition of knowledge, it is making us more and more mechanical: our minds are functioning along narrow grooves, whether it be scientific, philosophic, religious, business or technological knowledge that we are acquiring. Our ways of life, both at home and outside it, and our specialising in a particular career, are making our minds more and more narrow, limited and incomplete.






All this leads to a mechanistic way of life, a mental standardisation, and so gradually the State, even a democratic State, dictates what we should become. Most thoughtful people are naturally aware of this but unfortunately they seem to accept it and live with it. So this has become a danger to freedom.




Freedom is a very complex issue and to understand the complexity of it the flowering of the mind is necessary. Each one will naturally give a different definition of the flowering of man depending on his culture, on his so called education, experience, religious superstition that is, on his conditioning.




Here we are not dealing with opinion or prejudice, but rather with a non-verbal understanding of the implications and consequences of the flowering of the mind. This flowering is the total unfoldment and cultivation of our minds, our hearts and our physical well-being.



That is, to live in complete harmony in which there is no opposition or contradiction between them.



The flowering of the mind can take place only when there is clear perception, objective, non-personal, unburdened by any kind of imposition upon it. It is not what to think but how to think clearly.


We have been for centuries, through propaganda and so on, encouraged in what to think. Most modern education is that and not the investigation of the whole movement of thought. The flowering implies freedom: like any plant it requires freedom to grow.


J. Krishnamurti, Letters To The Schools, Volume 1 pp. 10-11



Why has humanity given such extraordinary importance to thought? Is it because it is the only thing we have, even though it is activated through senses? Is it because thought has been able to dominate nature, dominate its surroundings, has brought about some physical security?




Is it because it is the greatest instrument through which man operates, lives and benefits? Is it because thought has made the gods, the saviours, the super- consciousness, forgetting the anxiety, the fear, the sorrow, the envy, the guilt?




Is it because it holds people together as a nation, as a group, as a sect? Is it because it offers hope to a dark life? Is it because it gives an opening to escape from the daily boring ways of our life?




Is it because not knowing what the future is, it offers the security of the past, its arrogance, its insistence on experience? Is it because in knowledge there is stability, the avoidance of fear in the certainty of the known?



Is it because thought in itself has assumed an invulnerable position, taken a stand against the unknown? Is it because love is unaccountable, not measurable, while thought is measured and resists the changeless movement of love?





We have never questioned the very nature of thought. We have accepted thought as inevitable, as our eyes and legs. We have never probed to the very depth of thought: and because we have never questioned it, it has assumed preeminence. It is the tyrant of our life and tyrants are rarely challenged.


Krishnamurti, Letters To The Schools, Volume 1, 15th March, 1979




The tendency to endow with special interest institutions in which men become mere machines in the service of an idea, is fatal.


Anyone who accepts this state of affairs loses his integrity as a result and the love of man is destroyed.

J. Krishnamurti, 1932




He was a big man, heavily built, with large hands. He must have been a very rich man. He collected modern pictures and was rather proud of his collection which the critics had said was very good. As he told you this you could see the light of pride in his eyes.




He had a dog, big, active and full of play; it was more alive than its master. It wanted to be out in the grass among the dunes, racing against the wind, but it sat obediently where its master had told it to sit, and soon it went to sleep from boredom.



Possessions possess us more than we possess them. The castle, the house, the pictures, the books, the knowledge, they become far more vital, far more important, than the human being.




He said he had read a great deal, and you could see from the books in the library that he had all the latest authors. He spoke about spiritual mysticism and the craze for drugs that was seeping over the land. He was a rich, successful man, and behind him was emptiness and the shallowness that can never be filled by books, by pictures, or by the knowledge of the trade.




The sadness of life is this the emptiness that we try to fill with every conceivable trick of the mind. But that emptiness remains. Its sadness is the vain effort to possess.




From this attempt comes domination and the assertion of the me, with its empty words and rich memories of things that are gone and never will come back. It is this emptiness and loneliness that isolating thought breeds and keeps nourished by the knowledge it has created.





It is this sadness of vain effort that is destroying man. His thought is not so good as the computer, and he has only the instrument of thought with which to meet the problems of life, so he is destroyed by them. It is this sadness of wasted life which probably he will be aware of only at the moment of his death hand then it will be too late.



So the possessions, the character, the achievements, the domesticated wife, become terribly important, and this sadness drives away love. Either you have one or the other; you cannot have both. One breeds cynicism and bitterness which are the only fruit of man; the other lies beyond all woods and hills.

J. Krishnamurti, The Only Revolution, 1970, p. 126-7 (from The Second Penguin Krishnamurti Reader)



To look at myself without any formula can one do that? Otherwise you can't learn about yourself obviously. If I say, I am jealous, the very verbalization of that fact, or of that feeling, has already conditioned it. Right? Therefore I cannot see anything further in it.



Now the question is: can the mind be free of this egocentric activity? Right? That is really the question, not whether it is so or not. Which means can the mind stand alone, uninfluenced? Alone, being alone does not mean isolation.


Sir, look: when one rejects completely all the absurdities of nationality, the absurdities of propaganda, of religious propaganda, rejects conclusions of any kind, actually, not theoretically, completely put aside, has understood very deeply the question of pleasure and fear, and division the `me' and the `not me' is there any form of the self at all?

J. Krishnamurti, Observing Without The `Me',
Brockwood Park, First Public Talk, September 5, 1970


Tomorrow becomes necessary when we do not see very clearly today.

J Krishnamurti, Is Thinking a Slave to Time?, 1974



When the things outside us become of great meaning, we are inwardly poverty-ridden.

J. Krishnamurti, The Only Revolution, 1970, p. 146
(from The Second Penguin Krishnamurti Reader)



The speaker doesn't like to divide consciousness into the unconscious and the conscious, it is all consciousness. You can play around with those words but consciousness is whole, you cannot divide it.

Either for profit, for amusement, or for various other subjective reasons. But consciousness is whole. It is really indivisible, but we like to divide, break it up.

J. Krishnamurti, Brockwood Park, 1984








This recording inwardly is the divisive process. The divisive process is the self, the me and the not me, which is creating havoc in the world. Is the mechanism which has gone on for centuries the me and the not me, can that mechanism stop so that there is no me inwardly? The me being the self and all the rest of it, that's all. This has been not only a question for the scientists,


but for the religious people, the serious ones, not the phoney ones. The real religious people have said, can there be no self at all, and live in this world, not go off into monasteries or run away to some kind of fanciful entertainment.



Actually live without the self. That's all. Which requires a further statement, which is: is it possible not to record inwardly, psychically, and all that? I say it is possible. You may say, "You are a nut, you are crazy", but that is all right, we will discuss it."


Krishnamurti, Brockwood Park, England, June 8, 1984



Pleasure is encouraged by thought, isn't it? Thought can give it a continuity, the appearance of duration which we call happiness; as thought can also give a duration to sorrow. Thought says: `This I like and that I don't like.


I would like to keep this and throw away that.' But thought has made up both, and happiness now has become the way of thought. When you say: `I want to remain in that state of happiness' you are the thought, you are the memory of the previous experience which you call pleasure and happiness.


So the past, or yesterday, or many yesterdays ago, which is thought, is saying: `I would like to live in that state of happiness which I have had.' You are making the dead past into an actuality in the present and you are afraid of losing it tomorrow. Thus you have built a chain of continuity.




This continuity has its roots in the ashes of yesterday, and therefore it is not a living thing at all. Nothing can blossom in ashes and thought is ashes. So you have made happiness a thing of thought, and it is for you a thing of thought.




But is there something other than pleasure, pain, happiness and sorrow? Is there a bliss, an ecstasy, that is not touched by thought? For thought is very trivial, and there is nothing original about it.





In asking this question, thought must abandon itself. When thought abandons itself there is the discipline of the abandonment, which becomes the grace of austerity. Then austerity is not harsh and brutal. Harsh austerity is the product of thought as a revulsion against pleasure and indulgence.




From this deep self-abandonment which is thought abandoning itself, for it sees clearly its own danger the whole structure of the mind becomes quiet. It is really a state of pure attention and out of this comes a bliss, an ecstasy, that cannot be put into words. When it is put into words it is not the real.

J. Krishnamurti, The Only Revolution, 1970, p. 50 (from The Second Penguin Krishnamurti Reader)



Having realised that we can depend on no outside authority in bringing about a total revolution within the structure of our own psyche, there is the immensely greater difficulty of rejecting our own inward authority, the authority of our own particular little experiences and accumulated opinions, knowledge, ideas and ideals.




You had an experience yesterday which taught you something and what it taught you becomes a new authority and that authority of yesterday is as destructive as the authority of a thousand years.




To understand ourselves needs no authority either of yesterday or of a thousand years because we are living things, always moving, flowing never resting. When we look at ourselves with the dead authority of yesterday we will fail to understand the living movement and the beauty and quality of that movement.




To be free of all authority, of your own and that of another, is to die to everything of yesterday, so that your mind is always fresh, always young, innocent, full of vigour and passion. It is only in that state that one learns and observes.




And for this a great deal of awareness is required, actual awareness of what is going on inside yourself, without correcting it or telling it what it should or should not be, because the moment you correct it you have established another authority, a censor.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, pp. 19-20



The greater the outward show, the greater the inward poverty; but freedom from this poverty is not the loin-cloth. The cause of this inward emptiness is the desire to become; and, do what you will, this emptiness can never be filled.



You may escape from it in a crude way, or with refinement; but it is as near to you as your shadow. You may not want to look into this emptiness, but nevertheless it is there. The adornments and the renunciations that the self assumes can never cover this inward poverty.







By its activities, inner and outer, the self tries to find enrichment, calling it experience or giving it a different name according to its convenience and gratification. The self can never be anonymous; it may take on a new robe, assume a different name, but identity is its very substance.





This identifying process prevents the awareness of its own nature. The cumulative process of identification builds up the self, positively or negatively; and its activity is always self-enclosing, however wide the enclosure. Every effort of the self to be or not to be is a movement away from what it is.


Apart from its name, attributes, idiosyncrasies, possessions, what is the self? Is there the "I," the self, when its qualities are taken away? It is this fear of being nothing that drives the self into activity; but it is nothing, it is an emptiness.




If we are able to face that emptiness, to be with that aching loneliness, then fear altogether disappears and a fundamental transformation takes place. For this to happen, there must be the experiencing of that nothingness which is prevented if there is an experiencer.




If there is a desire for the experiencing of that emptiness in order to overcome it, to go above and beyond it, then there is no experiencing; for the self, as an identity, continues. If the experiencer has an experience, there is no longer the state of experiencing. It is the experiencing of what is without naming it that brings about freedom from what is.

J. Krishnamurti, Commentaries on Living, First Series, 1956, p. 54



Krishnamurti: No, no, you are missing my point. My brain has lived for a million years. It has experienced everything. It has been a Buddhist, it has been a Hindu, a Christian, it has been a Muslim, it has been all kinds of things, but the core of it is the same.




Right? And you come along and say, look there is a ground which is something. Are you going back to what I have already known? You follow? Hindus, Buddhists. If you do I reject all that because I say I have been through all that. They are like ashes to me at the end of it.





David Bohm: Well all of those things were attempts to create an apparent ground by thought. It seemed that through knowledge and thought, through Buddhism, and various other ways, people created what they regarded was the ground. And it wasn't.

K: It wasn't. Because I have spent a million years at it.

B: So as long as knowledge enters the ground that will be false?

K: Of course. So can I. I am just asking is there a relationship



between that and the human mind? In asking that question I am also aware of the danger of such a question.



B: Yes. Well you may create a delusion of the same kind that we have already gone through.



K: Yes. I have played that before, that song.

Q: Are you suggesting that the relationship cannot be made by you, but it must come.




K: I am asking that. No, it may be I have to make a relationship. My mind now is in such a state, I won't accept a thing.


Q: But the bridge, if there is such a thing.

K: No wait, listen to my mind: my mind says I have been through all this before. I have suffered, I have searched, I have looked, I have investigated, I have lived with people who are awfully clever at this kind of thing, and so on and so on.



So, I am asking this question being fully aware of the danger of that question. Because that is what the Hindus say, god is in you, Braham is in you, which is a lovely idea. I have been through all that. So I am asking `X', if the human mind has no relationship to it, and that there is only one-way passage, from that to me.




B: Well that's like the grace of god then.

K: That's just, you see, I've captured.

B: That you have invented.

K: That I won't accept that.

Q: And also aren't we then again back into the area of ideas?

K: No. They may be. So I am rejecting the explanation, grace of god.

B: Well you are not saying the relationship is one way, nor are you saying it's not one way.


K: Maybe, I don't know.
B: You're not saying anything.


K: I am not saying anything. All that I want is want in quotes this centre to be blasted. You understand? For the centre not to exist.





Because I see that centre is the cause of all the mischief, all the neurotic conclusions, all the illusions, all the endeavour, all the effort, all the misery, everything is from that core. After a million years, I haven't been able to get rid of it, it hasn't gone. So is there a relationship at all? What is the relationship between goodness and evil, or bad? Right? It comes to the same thing. There is no relationsip.



B: It depends upon what you mean by relationship.

K: All right. Contact, touch, communication, being in the same room.

B: Having the same root.

K: Yes, same root.

Q: But Krishnaji, are we then saying that there is the good and that there is the evil?



K: No, no. Don't. Goodness use another word, whole, and that which is not whole. It is not an idea. Now, is there relationship between these two? Obviously not. well, but if you're saying that in some sense the centre is an illusion an illusion cannot be related to that which is true because the content of the illusion has no relation to what is true.



K: That's it, that's it. You see that is a great discovery. I want to establish relationship with that want, I am using rapid words to convey this same meaning which is this petty little thing wants to have a relationship with that immensity. It cannot.



B: Yes, it is not just because of its immensity but because in fact this thing is not actual.

K: Yes.

Q: But I don't see that.

K: What do you mean?



Q: He says the centre is not actual. And that's part of my difficulty is I don't see that the centre is not actual.

B: Actual in the sense of being genuine and not an illusion. I mean something is acting but it is not the content which we know.



K: Do you see that?

Q: No. He says the centre must explode. It does not explode because I don't see the falseness in it.



K: No, no, no. You have missed my point. I have lived a million years, I have lived, I have done all this. And at the end of it I am still back at the beginning.

Q: Right, and you say the centre then must explode.

K: No, no, no. What, I have want to, the mind says this is too damn small.

Q: Right.

K: And it can't do anything about it. It has prayed, it has done everything. It's still there.



Q: Right.

K: And, he comes along and tells me there is this thing. I want to establish a relationship with that.



Q: He tells me there is this thing and he also tells me that the centre is an illusion.


B: Wait, that's too quick.

K: No. Wait. I know it is there. I'll call it what you like.




Q: Yes.

K: Illusion, a reality, a fixation whatever you like. It is there.



And, the mind says, it is not good enough, it wants to capture that. Therefore it wants to have that relationship with it. And that says, `Sorry, you can't have relationship with me.' That's all!




Q: Krishnaji, is that mind which wants to be in connection, or which wants to have a relationship with that, is that the same mind which is the `me'?



K:

Yes, yes. No, don't split it up sir. You are missing something. I have lived all this. Don't argue with me. I know, I can argue with you, back and forth. I have a million years of experience and it has given me a certain capacity.




And I realize at the end of it all there is no relationship between me and truth. Right? And that's a tremendous shock to me. You follow? It is like you have knocked me out, because all of my millions of years of experience says, go after that, seek it, search it, pray for it, struggle for it, cry for it, sacrifice. I have done all that. And suddenly `X' says, you cannot have relationship with that. You see, you understand what i am.?





You are not feeling the same as I am. I have shed tears, left my family, everything, for that. And that says, `Sorry'. So what has happened to me? That's what I want to get at. You understand sir?





Do you understand what I am saying? What has happened to the mind that has lived this way, done everything that man has done in search for that, and that says, one morning, `You have no relationship with me'. Sir, this is the greatest thing. Right? I don't know if you follow what I mean.


Q: This is a tremendous shock to the `me', if you say that.

K: Is it to you?

Q: I think is was and then things started.




K:

Don't I am asking you: is it a shock to discover that your brain, and your mind, your knowledge is valueless? All your examinations, all your struggles, all the things that one has gathered through years and years, centuries, absolutely worthless.




Either I go mad, because I say, My god, I have done all this for nothing? My virture, my abstinence, my control, everything and at the end of it you say they are valueless.' Sir, you understand what it does to me? You don't see it.



B: I mean if the whole thing goes then it's of no consequence.
K: Because what you have said, which is that absolutely you have no relationship.



What you have done, not done, what you have, is absolutely of no value. You understand sir?




B:mNot in any fundamental sense. It has relative value. It has only relative value within a certain framework, in which itself has no value.

K: Yes, thought has a relative value.

B: But the framework in general has no value.




K:

That's right. Whatever you have done on earth in quotes has no meaning, the ground says. Is that an idea? Or an actuality? You understand, sir? The idea being that you have told me but I still go on, struggling, wanting, groping; but it is an actuality, in the sense that I suddenly realize the futility of all that I have done. So I must be very careful when I use the word `I' it doesn't mean I must be very careful to see that it is not a concept, or rather that I don't translate into a concept, an idea, but receive the full blow of it!








Krishnamurti, The Ground of Being and the Mind of Man, 5th Conversation with Dr. David Bohm, Ojai, California, April 12, 1980.


Consciousness with its content is within the field of matter. The mind cannot possibly go beyond that under any circumstances, do what it will, unless it has complete order within itself and the conflict in relationship has come totally to an end; which means a relationship in which there is no 'me'.



This is not just a verbal explanation. The speaker is telling you what he lives, not what he talks about. If he does not live it, it is hypocrisy, a dirty thing to do.

Krishnamurti, Saanen, 1974



Does life having meaning, a purpose? Is not living in itself its own purpose? Why do we want more? Our difficulty is that, since our life is empty, we want to find a purpose to life and strive for it.





Such a purpose of life can only be mere intellection, without any reality; when the purpose of life is pursued by a stupid, dull mind, by an empty heart, that purpose will also be empty. This question about the purpose of life is put by those who do not love.





Krishnamurti, The First and Last Freedom, 1954



You know, that is quite interesting, to sit together for an hour and talk over our problems without any pretence, without any hypocrisy, and without assuming some ridiculous facade. To have a whole hour together is really extraordinary, because so rarely do we sit and discuss serious matters with anybody for a whole hour.




You may go to the office for a whole day, but it has far greater meaning to spend sixty minutes or more together in order to investigate, to seriously examine our human problems hesitantly, tentatively and with great affection, without trying to impose one opinion upon another, because we are not dealing with opinions, ideas, or theories.

Saanen 71, in 'The Awakening of Intelligence' p. 279




Questioner: How can we be free of dependence as long as we are living in society?



Krishnamurti:

Do you know what society is? Society is the relationship between man and man, is it not? Don't complicate it, don't quote a lot of books; think very simply about it and you will see that society is the relationship between you and me and others. Human relationship makes society; and our present society is built upon a relationship of acquisitiveness, is it not?





Most of us want money, power, property, authority; at one level or another we want position, prestige, and so we have built an acquisitive society. As long as we are acquisitive, as long as we want position, prestige, power and all the rest of it, we belong to this society and are therefore dependent on it.



But if one does not want any of these things and remains simply what one is with great humility, then one is out of it; one revolts against it and breaks with this society.



Unfortunately, education at present is aimed at making you conform, fit into and adjust yourself to this acquisitive society. That is all your parents, your teachers and your books are concerned with.





As long as you conform, as long as you are ambitious, acquisitive, corrupting and destroying others in the pursuit of position and power, you are considered a respectable citizen. You are educated to fit into society; but that is not education, it is merely a process which conditions you to conform to a pattern.




The real function of education is not to turn you out to be a clerk, or a judge, or a prime minister, but to help you understand the whole structure of this rotten society and allow you to grow in freedom, so that you will break away and create a different society, a new world. There must be those who are in revolt, not partially but totally in revolt against the old, for it is only such people who can create a new world--a world not based on acquisitiveness, on power and prestige.




I can hear the older people saying, "It can never be done. Human nature is what it is, and you are talking nonsense". But we have never thought about unconditioning the adult mind, and not conditioning the child.





Surely education is both curative and preventive. You older students are already shaped, already conditioned, already ambitious; you want to be successful like your father, like the governor, or somebody else. So the real function of education is not only to help you uncondition yourself,


but also to understand this whole process of living from day to day so that you can grow in freedom and create a new world a world that must be totally different from the present one. Unfortunately, neither your parents, nor your teachers, nor the public in general are interested in this. That is why education must be a process of educating the educator as well as the student.




Krishnamurti, Think On These Things, pp. 21-23




Questioner: You say that we should revolt against society, and at same time you say that we should not have ambition. Is not the desire to improve society an ambition?



Krishnamurti: I have very carefully explained what I mean by revolt, but I shall use two different words to make it much clearer. To revolt within society in order to make it a little better, to bring about certain reforms, is like the revolt of prisoners to improve their life within the prison walls; and such revolt is no revolt at all, it is just mutiny. Do you see the difference?




Revolt within society is like the mutiny of prisoners who want better food, better treatment within the prison; but revolt born of understanding is an individual breaking away from society, and that is creative revolution.



Now, if you as an individual break away from society, is that action motivated by ambition? If it is, then you have not broken away at all, you are still within the prison, because the very basis of society is ambition, acquisitiveness, greed.




But if you understand all that and bring about a revolution in your own heart and mind, then you are no longer ambitious, you are no longer motivated by envy, greed, acquisitiveness, and therefore you will be entirely outside of a society which is based on those things. Then you are a creative individual and in your action there will be the seed of a different culture.




So there is a vast difference between the action of creative revolution, and the action of revolt or mutiny within society. As long as you are concerned with mere reform, with decorating the bars and walls of the prison, you are not creative. Reformation always needs further reform, it only brings more misery, more destruction.





Whereas, the mind that understands this whole structure of acquisitiveness, of greed, of ambition and breaks away from it such a mind is in constant revolution. It is an expansive, a creative mind; therefore, like a stone thrown into a pool of still water, its action produces waves, and those waves will form a different civilization altogether."

Krishnamurti, Think On These Things, pp. 155-156



There were about eight people around the table at lunch. One was a film director, another a pianist, and there was also a young student from some university. They were talking about politics and the riots in America, and the war that seemed to be going on and on.




There was an easy flow of conversation about nothing. The director said, suddenly: `We of the older generation have no place in the coming modern world I, personally see that I have no relation or contact with anyone of the younger generation. I feel that we are hypocrites.'



This was said by a man who had many well-known avant-garde films to his name. He was not bitter about it. He was just stating a fact, with a smile and a shrug of his shoulders. What was specially nice about him was his frankness, with that touch of humility which often goes with it.


The university student had been silent all this time , but he was taking in the conversation, as were the others.



He said: `Though I am only twenty I am already old compared with the fifteen-year-olds. Their brains work faster, they are keener, they see things more clearly, they get to the point before I do.





They seem to know much more, and I feel old compared with them. But I entirely agree with what you said. You feel you are hypocrites, say one thing and do another. This you can understand in the politicians and in the priests, but what puzzles me is why should others join this world of hypocrisy? Your morality stinks; you want wars.



As for us, we don't hate the Negro, or the brown man, or any other colour. We feel at home with all of them. I know this because I have moved about with them.


But you, the older generation, have created this world of racial distinctions and war and we don't want any of it. So we revolt. But again, this revolt is made fashionable and exploited by the different politicians, and so we lose our original revulsion against all of this. Perhaps we, too, will become respectable, moral citizens. But now we hate your morality and have no morality at all.'






There was a minute or two of silence; and the eucalyptus was still, almost listening to the words going on around the table. The blackbird had gone, and so had the sparrows.




We said: Bravo, you are perfectly right. To deny all morality is to be moral, for the accepted morality is the morality of respectability, and I'm afraid we all crave to be respected which is to be recognized as good citizens in a rotten society.




Respectability is very profitable and ensures you a good job and a steady income. The accepted morality of greed, envy and hate is the way of the establishment.


When you totally deny all this, not with your lips but with your heart, then you are really moral. For this morality springs out of love and not out of any motive or profit, of achievement, of place in the hierarchy.




There cannot be this love if you belong to a society in which you want to find fame, recognition, a position. Since there is no love in this, its morality is immorality. When you deny all this from the very bottom of your heart, then there is a virtue that is encompassed by love.

Krishnamurti, The Only Revolution, 1970, pp. 130-13 (from The Second Penguin Krishnamurti Reader)



Then we come again to this extraordinary question of the nature of death. That must be answered, neither with fear, nor by escaping from that absolute fact, nor by belief, nor hope.





There is an answer, the right answer, but to find the right answer one has to put the right question. But you cannot possibly put the right question if you are merely seeking a way out of it, if the question is born of fear, of despair and of loneliness.


Then if you do put the right question with regard to reality, with regard to man's relationship to man, and what that thing called love is, and also this immense question of death, then out of the right question will come the right answer.




From that answer comes right action. Right action is in the answer itself. And we are responsible. Don't fool yourself by saying `What can I do? What can I, an individual, living a shoddy little life, with all its confusion and ignorance, what can I do?




Ignorance exists only when you don't know yourself. Self-knowing is wisdom. You may be ignorant of all the books in the world (and I hope you are), of all the latest theories, but that is not ignorance.






Not knowing oneself deeply, profoundly, is ignorance; and you cannot know yourself if you cannot look at yourself, see yourself actually as you are, without any distortion, without any wish to change. Then what you see is transformed because the distance between the observer and the observed is removed and hence there is no conflict.

Krishnamurti, Talks in Europe 1968, p. 56, Paris, April 16, 1968



Freedom is not a reaction: freedom is not choice. It is man's pretence that because he has choice he is free. Freedom is pure observation without direction, without fear of punishment and reward.




Freedom is without motive; freedom is not at the end of the evolution of man but lies in the first step of his existence. In observation one begins to discover the lack of freedom. Freedom is found in the choiceless awareness of our daily existence and activity.



Krishnamurti, from The Core of Krishnamurti's Teaching, 1980






From The Core of Krishnamurti's Teaching.


This statement was originally written by Krishnamurti himself on October 21, 1980 for Krishnamurti: The Years of Fulfillment by Mary Lutyens, volume volume 2 of his biography, published by Farrar, Straus & Giroux in 1983. © Mary Lutyens. On re-reading it Krishnamurti added a few sentences.





When we condemn or justify we cannot see clearly, nor can we when our minds are endlessly chattering; then we do not observe what is; we look only at the projections we have made of ourselves. Each of us has an image of what we think we are or what we should be, and that image, that picture, entirely prevents us from seeing ourselves as we actually are.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, p. 24



Self-interest hides in many ways, hides under every stone and every act hides in prayer, in worship, in having a successful profession, great knowledge, a special reputation, like the speaker. When there is a guru who says, `I know all about it.




I will tell you all about it' is there not self-interest there? This seed of self-interest has been with us for a million years. Our brain is conditioned to self-interest. If one is aware of that, just aware of it, not saying, `I am not self-interested' or `How can one live without self-interest?




But just be aware, then how far can one go, how far can one investigate into oneself to find out for ourselves, each one of us, how in action, in daily activity, in our behaviour, how deeply one can live without a sense of self-interest?



So, if we will, we will examine all that. Self-interest divides, self- interest is the greatest corruption (the word corruption means to break things apart) and where there is self-interest there is fragmentation your interest as opposed to my interest, my desire opposed to your desire, my urgency to climb the ladder of success opposed to yours. Just observe this; you can't do anything about it you understand? but just observe it, stay with it and see what is taking place.




Krishnamurti, Last Talks At Saanen, 1985, pp. 84-85.



To understand anything you must live with it, you must observe it, you must know all its content, its nature, its structure, its movement. Have you ever tried living with yourself? If so, you will begin to see that yourself is not a static state, it is a fresh living thing. And to live with a living thing you mind must also be alive. And it cannot be alive if it is caught in opinions, judgements and values.


J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, p. 23



If I am all the time measuring myself against you, struggling to be like you, then I am denying what I am myself. Therefore I am creating an illusion.




When I have understood that comparison in any form leads only to greater illusion and greater misery, just as when I analyse myself, add to my knowledge of myself bit by bit, or identify myself with something outside myself, whether it be the State, a savior or an ideology when I understand that all such processes lead only to greater conformity and therefore greater conflict when I see all this I put it completely away. Then my mind is no longer seeking. It is very important to understand this.




Then my mind is no longer groping, searching, questioning. This does not mean that my mind is satisfied with things as they are, but such a mind has no illusion. Such a mind can then move in a totally different dimension.




The dimension in which we usually live, the life of every day which is pain, pleasure and fear, has conditioned the mind, limited the nature of the mind, and when that pain, pleasure and fear have gone (which does not mean that you no longer have joy: joy is something entirely different from pleasure) then the mind functions in a different dimension in which there is no conflict, no sense of `otherness'.





Verbally we can go only so far: what lies beyond cannot be put into words because the word is not the thing. Up to now we can describe, explain, but no words or explanations can open the door. What will open the door is daily awareness and attention awareness of how we speak, what we say, how we walk, what we think.




It depends on your state of mind. And that state of mind can be understood only by yourself, by watching it and never trying to shape it, never taking sides, never opposing, never agreeing, never justifying, never condemning, never judging which means watching it without any choice. And out of this choiceless awareness perhaps the door will open and you will know what that dimension is in which there is no conflict and no time.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, pp. 32-33



Thought is never new, for thought is the response of memory, experience, knowledge. Thought, because it is old, makes this thing which you have looked at with delight and felt tremendously for the moment, old. From the old you derive pleasure, never from the new. There is no time in the new.





So if you can look at all things without allowing pleasure to creep in at a face, a bird, the colour of a sari, the beauty of a sheet of water shimmering in the sun, or anything that gives delight if you can look at it without wanting the experience to be repeated, then there will be no pain, no fear and therefore tremendous joy.




It is the struggle to repeat and perpetuate pleasure which turns it into pain. Watch it in yourself. The very demand for the repetition of pleasure brings about pain, because it is not the same as it was yesterday.




You struggle to achieve the same delight, not only to your aesthetic sense but the same inward quality of the mind, and you are hurt and disappointed because it is denied you. You cannot think about joy. Joy is an immediate thing and by thinking about it, you turn it into pleasure. Living in the present is the instant perception of beauty and the great delight in it without seeking pleasure from it.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, pp. 36-37



The oberver is fear and when that is realised there is no longer any dissipation of energy in the effort to get rid of fear, and the time-space interval between the observer and the observed disappears. When you see that you are part of fear, not separate from it that you are fear then you cannot do anything about it; then fear comes totally to an end.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, p. 48






When you call yourself an Indian or a Muslim or a Christian or a European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind.




When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence. So a man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system; he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind.

J. Krishnamurti, Freedom from the Known, pp. 51-52









On Kundalini



The other question is what Pupulji raised about an endless journey. You want to discuss kundalini?



P: Yes, sir.

K: Sir, first of all, if you really want to discuss, have a dialogue about kundalini, would you forget everything you have heard about it? Would you? We are entering into a subject which is very serious.




Are you willing to forget everything you have heard about it, what your gurus have told you about it, or your attempts to awaken it? Can you start with a completely empty state?



Then you have to enquire, really not knowing anything about kundalini. You know what is happening now in America, in Europe. Kundalini centres have been opened by people who say they have had the experience of the awakening of kundalini. Scientists are interested in it today. They feel that by doing certain forms of exercise, breathing, they will awaken the kundalini.




It has all become a moneymaking concern, and it is being given to people who are terribly mischievous.




Q: We just want to know whether there is an energy that can wipe out conditioning.



K: So long as self-centred activity exists, you cannot touch it. That is why I object to any discussion on kundalini or whatever that energy is, because we have not done the spade work. We don’t lead a life of correctness and we want to add something new to it and so carry on our mischief.




VA: Even after awakening kundalini, self-centred activity continues.


K: I question whether the kundalini is awakened. I don’t know what you mean by it.


VA: Sir, we really want to understand this, because it is an actuality sometimes.


P: Do you know of an energy when self-centred activity ends? We assume that this is the source of this endless energy. It may not be.

K: Are you saying the ending of this movement from the centre to the circumference and from the circumference to the centre, the end of that.



P: Momentary ending of it.


K: No, the ending of it, the complete ending of it – is the release of that energy which is limitless?


P: I don’t say that.

K: I am saying that.


P: Which is a very different thing to me saying it.



K: Can we put kundalini energy in its right place? A number of people have the experience of what they call kundalini, which I question. I question whether it is an actual reality or some kind of physiological activity which is attributed to kundalini.




You live an immoral life in the sense of a life of vanity, sex, etc. and then you say that your kundalini is awakened. But your daily life, which is a self-centred life, continues.


P: Sir, if we are going to examine it, let us see how it operates in one. The awakening of kundalini is linked to certain psychic centres located at certain physical parts of the body. That is what is said. The first question I would like to ask is whether that is so? Has the release of this energy, which as no end, anything to do with the psychic centres in the physical parts of the body?





A: Before we go into that, sir, is it not essential to enquire whether the person who acquires that energy is incapable of doing harm.



K: No, sir. Do be careful. How can we say somebody is incapable of doing harm? They say many Indian gurus have done tremendous harm misleading people.



A: That is what I say, sir. I feel that unless the person’s heart is cleansed of hate, and his thirst to do harm is completely transmuted, unless that has happened, then this energy can do nothing but more mischief.



K: Achyutji, what Pupulji is asking about is the standard acceptance of the power of this energy going through various centres and the releasing of energy and so on.




A: I say, sir, that before we ask that question, there is in the Indian tradition a word which I think is very valuable. That word is ‘adhikar’. Adhikar means that the person must cleanse himself sufficiently before he can pose this question to himself. It is a question of cleansing.



K: Are you saying that unless there is a stoppage of this movement from the centre to the circumference and from the circumference to the centre, that Pupulji’s question is not valid?




A: I think so. I will use another word, the Buddhist word is ‘sheela’. It is really the same. The word ‘adhikar’ used by the Hindus and the word ‘sheela’ used by the Buddhist really mean the same thing.





P: I take it that when one asks the question, there is a depth of self-knowing with which one asks. It is not possible to investigate the self which also releases energy.



If one’s life has not gone through a degree of inner balance, otherwise what.




K, says has no meaning. When one listens to Krishnaji, one receives at the depth to which one has exposed oneself, and therefore I think it is right to ask the question. Why is this question more dangerous than any other question?




Why is it more dangerous than inquiring into what is thought, what is meditation, what is this, what is that? To the mind which will comprehend, it will comprehend this and that. To the mind which will not comprehend, it will comprehend neither. To the mind which wants to misuse, it will misuse anything.



K: Unless your life, your daily life is a completely nonself-centred way of living, the other cannot possibly come in.



VA: There is arising of energy there is delight at first, then fear.
S: We would like to know why that energy creates fear.


VA: Fear comes later. One experiences death and everything vanishes. You are alive again and you are surprised that you are alive again. You find the world again, and your thoughts, and your possessions and desires and the whole world slowly come back.


K: Would you call that, sir, the awakening of kundalini?




VA: I don’t know, sir.

K: But why do you label it as the awakening of kundalini?





VA: For a few days after that, for a period of a month, the whole life changes. Sex vanishes, desires vanish.

K: Yes, sir, I understand. But you do come back to it again.





VA: One comes back to it because one doesn’t understand.

K: That is what I am saying, sir. When there is a coming back to something, I question whether you have had that energy.




P: Why has this question awakened so many ripples? Most people go through a great deal of psychic experiences in the process of self-knowing. One also understands, at least one has understood because one has listened to Krishnaji, that all psychic experience when they arise, have to be put aside.




K: Is that understood? Psychic experiences must be totally put aside.

A: We put them aside, not only give no importance to them.




VA: Some new passages do get opened in the body, and the energy keeps rising in those passages whenever it is required.



K: Sir, why do you call it something extraordinary? Why do we attribute something extraordinary to this? I am just suggesting, it may be that you have become very sensitive. That is all. Very acutely sensitive.





VA: I have more energy.

K: Sensitivity has more energy. But why do you call it extraordinary, kundalini this, that or the other?




P: The real problem is to what extent is your life totally changed. I mean the only meaning of awakening is if there is a totally new way of looking, a new way of living, a new way of relationship.

K: I live a life of torture, misery, confusion. That is my basic feeling and can that end? There is no motive.



Can that whole process end? Only then can I answer the other questions, which have tremendous significance.



P: What is the nature of the soil of the human mind which has to be cultivated to receive the other? You tell me that is also a wrong question. You say I am in conflict, I am suffering and I see that a life of conflict and suffering has no end.

K: That is all. If it cannot end, then the other enquiry and investigation, and the wanting to awaken the other in order to wipe this out is a wrong process.




P: Obviously.

K: It is asking an outside agency to come and clear up your house. I say in the process of clearing the house, this house, there are a great many things that are going to happen. You will have clairvoyance, the so-called ‘siddhis’ and all the rest of it. They will all happen. But if you are caught in them, you cannot proceed further.




If you are not caught in them, the heavens are open to you. You are asking, Pupul, is there a soil that has to be prepared, not in order to receive that, but the soil has to be prepared? Prepare, work at that, clean the house so completely that there isn’t the shadow of escape.





Then, we can ask, what is the state we are all talking about. If you are doing that, preparing, working at the ending of sorrow, not letting go, if you are working at that and you come along and say is there something known as kundalini power, then I am willing to listen.




A: Sir, the reason why I objected is that in the Hatha yoga Pradipika text we make a statement that this investigation into kundalini is in order to strengthen you in your search.

K: For God’s sake, Achyutji, are you working at clearing up the house?



A: Definitely.

K: Now, what is the question? Is there an energy which is non-mechanistic, which is endless, renewing itself? I say there is. Most definitely. But it is not what you call kundalini. The body must be sensitive. If you are working, clearing up the house, the body becomes very sensitive.




The body then has its own intelligence, not the intelligence which the mind dictates to the body. Therefore, the body becomes extraordinarily sensitive, not sensitive to its desires, or sensitive to wanting something, but it becomes sensitive per se. Right? Then, what happens? If you really want me to go into it, I’ll do so. The people who speak of the awakening of kundalini.




I question. They have not worked at the other, but say they have awakened kundalini. Therefore, I question their ability, their truth. I am not antagonistic, but I am questioning it. A man who eats meat, wants publicity, wants this and that and says his kundalini is awakened, I say it is nonsense.





There must be a cleansing of this house all the time
. Then Pupul says, ‘Can we talk about an energy which I feel must exist?’, not theoretically but of which she has had a glimpse, the feeling of it, an energy that is endless; and K comes along and says ‘yes’, there is such a thing.




There is an energy which is renewing itself all the time, which is not mechanistic, which has no cause, which has no beginning and therefore no ending. It is an eternal movement. I say there is. What value has it to the listener? I say ‘yes’ and you listen to me. I say to myself what value has that to you? Will you go off into that and not clear up the house?



P: That means, sir, that to the person who enquires, it is the cultivation of the soil which is the ending of suffering, which is essential.

K: The only job. Nothing else. It is the most sacred thing, therefore you can’t invite it. And you are all inviting it.




Clearing up the house demands tremendous discipline, not the discipline of control, suppression and obedience, you follow? In itself it demands tremendous attention.


When you give your complete attention then you will see a totally different kind of thing taking place, an energy in we have it one day and a month later I don’t have it. It implies, keeping the mind completely empty. Can you do that?
VA: For a while.




K: No, no. I have asked: Can the mind keep itself empty? Then, there is that energy. You don’t even have to ask for it. When there is space, it is empty and therefore full of energy.




So, in cleansing, in ending the things of the house, of sorrow, can the mind be completely empty, without any motive, without any desire? When you are working at this, keeping the house clean, other things come naturally. It isn’t you who are preparing the soil for that. That is meditation.






P: And the nature of that is the transformation of the human mind.





K: You see as Apa Saheb was saying, we are programmed to centuries of conditioning. When there is the stopping of it, there is an ending of it. If you pull the plug out of the computer, it can’t function any more.





Now, the question is: Can that centre, which is selfishness, end? And not keep on and on? Can that centre end? When that ends, there is no movement of time. That is all. When the movement of the mind from the centre to the periphery stops, time stops. When there is no movement of selfishness, there is a totally different kind of movement.







Krishnamurti and the phrase "lobbing grenades" seem to go hand in hand. He has made a name for himself by bashing spiritual traditions, teachers, and seekers. He had his reasons though:




Q: You seem bent upon demolishing everything other teachers have taught.



U.G.: My interest is not to knock off what others have said (that is too easy), but to knock off what I am saying. More precisely, I am trying to stop what you are making out of what I am saying.




This is why my talking sounds contradictory to others. I am forced by the nature of your listening to always negate the first statement with another statement. The second statement is negated by a third, and so on. My aim is not some comfy dialectical thesis, but the total negation of everything that can be expressed. Anything you try to make out of my statements is not it.




U. G.'s style is reminiscent of the dialogues in The Zen Teaching of Huang Po where the hapless disciples ask all manner of questions in the hope of getting an affirmative answer, but it never comes. The master negates everything they say. At least Huang Poe hinted that there was an answer, it just wasn't something they could conceive. U. G. Krishnamurti seems intent on quashing every hope.




U.G. Krishnamurti passed away in Vallecrossia, Italy on March 25th, 2007. Here's an excerpt from the Daily News and Analysis India:



Thinker and philosopher UG Krishnamurti has died at Vallecrossia in Italy aged 90.



Krishnamurti, lovingly called UG by his friends and admirers, had slipped and injured himself seven weeks ago and was bedridden, his friends said.


UG's longtime friends filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, Larry and Susan Morris and a few other friends were by his side when he died two days ago.




Krishnamurti, who had moved to Italy in January, suffered from "cardio spasm" for many years which became quite severe in the last days of his life.



As per his advice, no rituals or funeral rites were conducted, and he did not leave instructions on how to dispose of his body, his friend and admirer AP Frank Noronha said.



The cremation was carried out by Mahesh Bhatt on Friday.

UG is survived by two daughters and a son.





AGAIN, The core teachings of Krishnamurtis' Phylosophy




"The core of Krishnamurti's teaching is contained in the statement he made in 1929 when he said: 'Truth is a pathless land' Man cannot come to it through any organization, through any creed, through any dogma, priest or ritual, nor through any philosophical knowledge or psychological technique. He has to find it through the mirror of relationship, through the understanding of the contents of his own mind, through observation, and not through intellectual analysis or introspective dissection.



Man has built in himself images as a sense of security—religious, political, personal. These manifest as symbols, ideas, beliefs. The burden of these dominates man's thinking, relationships and his daily life. These are the causes of our problems for they divide man from man in every relationship.




So, we are enquiring into what makes a bird. What is creation behind all this? Are you waiting for me to describe it, go into it? You want me to go into it? Why From the audience: To understand what creation is.



Why do you ask that? Because I asked? No description can ever describe the origin. The origin is nameless; the origin is absolutely quiet, it's not whirring about making noise. Creation is something that is most holy, that's the most sacred thing in life, and if you have made a mess of your life, change it.





Change it today, not tomorrow. If you are uncertain, find out why and be certain. If your thinking is not straight, think straight, logically. Unless all that is prepared, all that is settled, you can't enter into this world, into the world of creation.




A few days before his death, in a final statement, he emphatically declared that "nobody" among his associates, or the general public, had understood what had happened to him (as the conduit of the teaching), nor had they understood the teaching itself. He added that the "immense energy" operating in his lifetime would be gone with his death, again implying the impossibility of successors.



However, he offered hope by stating that people could approach that energy and gain a measure of understanding " if they live the teachings".[73] In prior discussions he had compared himself with Thomas Edison, implying that he did the hard work, and now all was needed by others was a flick of the switch.




In another instance he talked of Columbus going through an arduous journey to discover the New World, whereas now, it could easily be reached by jet; the ultimate implication being that even if Krishnamurti was in some way "special", in order to arrive at his level of understanding, others didn't need to be.




J. Krishnamurti died on February 17, 1986, at the age of 90, from pancreatic cancer. His remains were cremated and scattered by friends and former associates in the three countries where he had spent most of his life; India, England and United States of America.







ON MEDITATION


Krishnamurti used the word meditation to mean something entirely different from the practice of any system or method to control the mind. At a public talk in Bombay in 1971, he spoke on meditation and its implications at length.



A mind that is in meditation is concerned only with meditation, not with the meditator. The meditator is the observer, the censor, the thinker, the experiencer, and when there is the experiencer, the thinker, then he is concerned with reaching out, gaining, achieving, experiencing. And that thing which is timeless cannot be experienced. There is no experience at all. There is only that which is not nameable.


"Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life-perhaps the greatest, and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody, that is the beauty of it. It has no technique and therefore no authority.



When you learn about yourself, watch yourself, watch the way you walk, how you eat, what you say, the gossip, the hate, the jealousy-if you are aware of all that in yourself, without any choice, that is part of meditation.



All effort to meditate is the denial of meditation. Meditation is the ending of thought. It is only then that there is a different dimension which is beyond time.



Meditation is the emptying of the mind of all thought, for thought and feeling dissipate energy. They are repetitive, producing mechanical activities which are a necessary part of existence.



It cannot be done by thought or by the hidden prompting of thought, nor by desire in the form of prayer, nor through the self-effacing hypnotism of words, images, hopes, and vanities. All these have to come to an end, easily, without effort and choice, in the flame of awareness.



KRISHNAMURTI







The real meaning of DEATH in the BIBLE





HOME











The soul is entombed in the Flesh, and seeks at-one-ment with it's origin, the cosmos.



The core of the aeons-old stories known as the ‘mysteries’lay below and are revealed. The real meaning behind Christmas,the real meaning behind Easter, and the real meaning behind the religions particularly for those of you who are taking graduate courses in historical and religious studies!



Before you go any further, just know that everything you’ve been told has been a lie. Fortunately some of us are smart enough to recognise these lies for what they are but can’t diagnose the lie nor get to the heart of why it’s a lie. This is the knowledge which is nothing new it’s been known for as long as anyone can remember, but it’s knowledge that has been sequestered from you by a very select few.




This is not a condemnation on spirituality or faith. This is an expose on a certain dogmatic system that has been put before you as spirituality and faith.


The next logical question would be why, and by whom?










THE LOST MEANING OF DEATH

by Alvin Boyd Kuhn,



"For I have heard from one of the wise that we are now dead; and that the body is our sepulchre." PLATO.


"The command that meant life proved death to me."

ST. PAUL.


"You have the name of being alive, but you are dead."

REVELATION III, 1.





In presenting to the public the thesis of this particular address the speaker is overawed by a twofold realization. He is aware, first, that the interpretation of all ancient Holy Writ which he here offers will be disruptive of the established creedal religions of the Western world.




And, in the second place he knows that the presentment will fall with such astonishing force upon Occidental religious thought as to seem incredible in spite of an array of positive testimony certifying its correctness. He may well be pardoned a feeling of hesitation and dubiety in making the revelation, for it has involved him in a daring incursion into interpretative terrain whither no scholar has penetrated before him.





From the penetralia of that little-trodden domain of ancient religion-mystery he brings forth into modern light a discovery that will severely tax all the resources of common acceptance.



Traditional norms of thought do not readily relax their grip on the general mind. It is scarcely to be hoped that an announcement so subversive of accepted ideas in religion and theology will be received without scepticism or resentment, since it invades a field in which conservatism is most stolidly rooted.





Traditions long institutionalized do not easily bend to correction of principles basically vital to their very existence. Yet truth demands insistently from her devotees her inexorable tribute of sincerity and courage, and scholarship must flinch no duty in the line of truth-seeking.




It will be impossible in a brief preview to do more than hint at the sweeping force of the disclosure now to be made in the domain of religious interpretation. It is permissible to assert that it will revolutionize the entire modus of such interpretation in vogue since the third century of the Christian era.





Not alone one or two, but all of the doctrines of Christian theology will have to suffer drastic revision and restatement in the light of the import of this announcement.




For in olden times the proper signification of the terms "death" and "the dead" was the touchstone by which the meaning of all scriptural writing could be gauged. The terms carried in their ancient usage a hidden or esoteric connotation, which was at once a clue to the primary meaning of the entire structure of theology and a key to the rational envisagement of our mortal life.




The sagacious ancients were content to let a secondary implication of the terms, more readily apparent on the surface, prevail in the exoteric understanding, while imparting to the Mystery Initiates an occult signification which bore the real purport of Scripture, infinitely more informing and dynamic.





We are reliably informed that the sages of old employed mythical and cabalistic devices at once to reveal and conceal a profounder meaning in their sacred writings, using at times "blinds" to suggest to the untutored a shallow rendering, while conveying to those versed in symbolical methodology a far profounder message. The most startling of these ruses was their use of "death".





Teaching for the living was put out under the guise of instruction for "the dead". Great moral and spiritual systems were cloaked under the mask of "Books of the Dead," as in Egypt and Tibet.




This being so, the sequel will show why a revision of our understanding of what was implied by the archaic use of the terms will so radically transform the meaning of every single doctrine of the Christian faith. For the key to the correct interpretation of all Scripture is just this ancient theological connotation of the word "death".




What, we may surmise, must have been the consequences to theology and to world history of the loss of this arcane clue as far back as the third century! In imagination we can roughly begin to depict the prodigious handicap under which the theologians have labored for sixteen centuries.




The depth of the darkness that has involved the whole region of religious intellectualism can be sensed without difficulty. It will hardly be a matter of surprise if we discover that every single dogma of Christian systematism has been sadly distorted out of its original sense. The discerning student is now able to trace the dire disfigurement of every Christian doctrine.





For as the liniaments of ancient beauty become outlined again beneath the distortions of mediaeval and modern crudity, he is then for the first time made aware of the unconscionable grossness of rendering to which pure spiritual formulae of the arcane science have been subjected.



He sees that Christian doctrinal material was interpreted in blind ignorance of a former recondite wisdom and that mass psychology has been made for ages the hapless slave to the crudest of misconceptions.




For, it seems, not a scholar, not a theologian, mediaeval or modern, has been aware of the masked meaning of the word "death", or suspected that it cloaked a cryptic signification, the discernment of which would have necessitated a reconditioned statement of every teaching or exegesis.




Now, a clear inspection of Greek and Egyptian systems brings the lost clue to light, with what consequences to modern thought as a whole the mind is staggered to envision. In the flash of vivid light engendered by the revelation one can again survey the beautiful field of ancient spiritual truth, long buried under mists of ignorance.





With one glance it can be seen that the entire structure of theological science can have sane and pertinent interpretation only by the application to it of the magical key that has been so long lost.





Equally clear comes the perception that is has been the want of this key that has reduced religion to a meaningless babble of piety and sentimentalism, degrading the once kingly science of theology at the same time to the status of an outcast from the seats of modern intelligence.



With startling force, too, it can be felt that the rediscovery may be timely enough to redeem the precarious fortunes of religion and theology from the danger of total eradication in a world that is fast growing less hospitable to them.




Religion has been fighting a losing battle in modern life, and one of the basic reasons now comes glaringly to light. Indeed it becomes readily apparent that unless religion sets itself industriously to repair the breach made in its structure by the loss of keystone elements, it may not be able to withstand the assault of radical bitterness.




Christianity, as a system of exclusive sacred truth or a unique revelation of divine wisdom, is already reeling under the impact of one blow after another dealt it by the study of Comparative Religion and Comparative Mythology.




The "deadly parallels" found to run so consistently and so strikingly between the life of the Gospel Jesus and the legends of some twenty or more antecedent Christly figures or Sun-gods, in the role of world-saviors, are rapidly piling up the evidence that tends to jeopardize the validity of the entire body of Gospel narrative as history.



It is beginning to dawn on intelligent and informed students that the New Testament Gospels are not the biography of any "person" or living character at all, but are old dramatic books of the religious Brotherhoods, portraying, not the "life" of any man, but only the spiritual history of a typical figure.





All previous Messianic characters, or Sun-gods, were only such typal dramatizations of man’s inner life, under the form of a representative "history".




The Christs were simply ideal figures held up before men to provide them with an inspiring picture of their own attainable perfection. Unbelievable as it may appear, it is the fact of history that with the lapse of time and the decay of philosophical culture, the more ignorant came to take these dramatic heroes for actually living persons.





And a designing priestcraft, either itself now sunken in similar ignorance, or motivated by piety or knavery, or both, found it advantageous to the interests of a worldly ecclesiastical system to connive at the misunderstanding.




At any rate, the Gospels, which were only spiritual allegories (see the writings of Philo, Clement and Origen, and note Paul’s statement that the story of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar "is an allegory"), were about the third century converted into literal history.




And it was at this juncture that the ancient meaning of the term "death" passed out of the ken of even the most learned of the leaders of Christianity, and with it fled all possibility of retaining or regaining the deep inner sense of the scheme of theology.




The appeal of early Christianity to the ignorant masses, and the popularization of its tenets, which were originally drawn from the esoteric schools and Mysteries (see any good text on Christian origins), quickly led to the obscuration of all but the most literal sense of scriptural material.



Christianity smothered out the ancient Wisdom-Religion or Gnosis, and by garbling the interpretation of purely spiritual teachings, wrecked the machinery of the arcane science.





The main shift of the wrecked cabalistic mechanism was the cryptic connotation of "death". Its restoration at this time will go far to reconstruct the venerable enginery of spiritual wisdom. It may force Christianity to admit its pagan sources, and thereby pave the way for a return to the primal purity and sublimity it boasted when it first issued from lofty pagan springs.





It will tend to bring Christianity humbly knocking at the doors of the ancient pagan temples, which misguided zeal closed in the fifth century. For the Ancient or Ageless Wisdom, taught in the arcane schools of old, has had a modern rebirth, and Christianity will find its salvation from almost universal distrust by recognizing in the occult movement the spirit of its original motivation.





But certainly many will have come here this evening challenging in their minds the legitimacy of the wording of the title of the address. How, you are saying, can death ever have had a meaning other than its common one, and how could that ever have been "lost"?




Before meeting your natural scepticism on this point with its proper and adequate answer, perhaps the question may best be countered by putting forth some other questions that may never have occurred to you. How was it that the doctrine of the judgment lost its original meaning? How came the doctrines of hell and purgatory likewise to lose their first connotations?




How did it occur, further, that the meaning of such events as the baptism, the circumcision, the temptation, the transfiguration, the crucifixion, resurrection and ascension has in the same way been lost or corrupted? How indeed did the very birth of Jesus, his sudden burst of sage wisdom at the age of twelve, his bloody sweat in the garden, his triumphant entry into Jerusalem, his trial and mockery, all likewise drift far away from what they were taken to mean at the start?





How did all the miracles, all the parables, the whole outline, in fact, of Biblical wisdom, suffer the loss of a primal interpretation and sink into the veriest travesty or caricature of their true sense that humanity has ever been asked to "believe"?




For it can now be stated without fear of contradiction that not an item of Gospel theology retains the most distant resemblance to that grand meaning which it once held in the minds of the great sages and illuminati. If you will answer these questions you will have a direct answer to your challenge as to the legitimacy of our title.





All these fundamental items of Christian theology have been perverted out of their correct spiritual translation as the result of a momentous historical denouement about which all too little is generally known. At the precise time at which Christianity was being formulated, powerful currents of economic, social and religious forces had come into play, the operation of which precipitated a swift and drastic shifting of the center of gravity, so to say, in religious values and motivations.




From the days of Pythagoras and Plato, when Greece was guided by the inner enlightenment of the great Orphic Mystery teaching, the profound insight of Grecian philosophy had seen life on earth as the critical sphere of destiny. Values were thought to be won and permanent character established, by the deeds done in the body. Earth was the arena of conquest in life’s struggle.





The thing of chief importance was that which was done here in this world. Our mundane acts, words and thoughts stamped the marks of destiny on our souls. But with the loss of the spiritual Gnosis, human reason became unable to cope with the apparent hollowness and futility of worldly experience, and a sense of earthly defeatism and hopelessness seized the general mind.





As all hard-won earthly values were seen to slip away from their possessor at the stealthy approach of age and decrepitude, to be finally snatched away by the hand of death, and it was no longer known how the gains won by strenuous experience were treasured up in man’s interior constitution, a despair of the good of mundane life overwhelmed the consciousness of the age.





Former hearty zest for living gradually gave way to scepticism, cynicism and pessimism. Robust Greek philosophy yielded in a century or two to badly understood forms of Oriental negativism and resignation.



Mortals turned their eyes from earth to the post mortem heaven world as the locale of rewards and compensatory happiness. Gilbert Murray, the Oxford scholar, has designated this transferal of values by his famous phrase, "the loss of nerve" on the part of the Greek world.



The substance, as it were, had been extracted out of earth experience; a fatalistic resignation set in and an earth-weary race fixed its eyes on heaven, the next world, as the place where sublunary wrongs were to be righted and human ills and woes blissfully compensated.



This revolutionary alteration of viewpoint was the outer evidence of an inner loss. Humanity had mislaid the chart of its spiritual destiny, and with it the location of its pole-star of truth and wisdom. It had lost its light of guiding understanding. And with it took flight also the last vestige of the true meaning of the religious data.




Sweeping clear out of the purview of this life altogether, and over into another domain to which it was never intended to minister in the beginning, fled the message of all the Scriptures. Religion had been instituted in the first instance as instruction and guidance for man’s life on earth.




But a false indoctrination following the loss of arcane teaching caused the disastrous shift in the focus of vision and the location of values. So that what had been intended for our perpetual behoof in the life lived here, shot clear over the head of this world and landed in another realm, the astral world of spirits. Religion had become a cult of "otherworldliness," a looking to heaven for fulfilments denied here.





Hence arose the cultus of spiritualism, and indirectly that of asceticism. Only in this light can we understand also the allocation of the idea of "heaven" to a strategic or central place in nearly all religions. For human yearnings demanded a region in which earthly failures were crowned with poetic success.





A necessary consequence of this change, this loss of knowledge, was the transposition also of the continuity of progress for the soul from this life to the life in spirit. If effort was to be held as absolutely fruitless here, then provision had to be made for continued unfoldment in the life out of body.




Not even the roseate heaven could be made rationally satisfactory until this matter of perpetual development was adjusted in line with specious reasoning. But here religion ran into its most egregious error, and originated a chain of untold disaster for human life and effort.



It proved the ruin of all sound religious philosophy and closed off the channel of all religious benefit. It defeated the prime purpose of religion altogether, for it left man bereft of just those incentives which would have inspired him to apply himself with courage, steadiness and fortitude to the tasks for the accomplishment of which he came to live on earth.




For it postulated the thesis that souls, cut off untimely in their growth on earth, would continue to evolve eternally to infinite glories of godhood, in the spiritual spheres. Here was born a delusion that has stultified the spirit of mankind ever since.




For no more can a soul achieve any further cycle of growth out of earthly body than can an acorn become another great oak without being buried in the soil of earth. And this theory that has palsied an infinite amount of human effort came by default of religious knowledge of the hidden sense of the term "death".




Thrown under a mental coma by the alluring force of the belief, short-sighted and blinded faith has never seen that if continued spiritual progress were possible in a discarnate existence after only one brief life on earth, there could be found no warrant either in logic or in cosmic counsels for our projection into this life in the body for the one fleeting career.



The incarnation can never be justified save by the postulation of reincarnation. One life here, thrown in with an eternity of growth in a spirit realm, is an untenable thesis to explain a rational cosmic procedure.




Speaking advisedly, one may still freely assert that the obscuration of the inner meaning of "death" has utterly wrecked the science of theology. It has been the primary wellspring of that total illogicality and natural unseemliness in the scheme of theology which has so widely deprived it of intellectual support in the modern age.



To a somewhat less extent, but still more considerably than has been surmised, it has militated likewise to hold in confusion some elements of the occult interpretation. It seems indeed to have escaped discovery universally, and all spiritual teaching everywhere has suffered in consequence.



The first hints in the direction of the discovery were picked up when in the study of the great system of Greek thought known as Neo-Platonism, with its interpretations of Greek mythology and religion, one became aware of a peculiar handling of the idea of death.




To convey just what is meant by this statement it will be necessary to quote a number of passages from the Greek writers themselves. They are in themselves quite valuable and should be more widely known. The most lucid renditions of Neo-Platonic ideas come to us though the translations of Thomas Taylor. We begin with a comment of Taylor’s own on Greek ideas regarding human life as a kind of death:




"They believed that human souls were confined in the body as in a prison, a condition which they denominated genesis or generation, from which Dionysus would liberate them. This generation, which linked the soul to body, was supposed to be a kind of death to the higher form of life.




Evil is inherent to this condition, the soul dwelling in the body as in a prison or a grave. The earthly life is a dream rather than a reality the soul is purified and separated from the evils of this condition by knowledge" or what they called "philosophy".




MANS TWO BIRTHS






The great Plato is himself found saying that "men are placed in the body as in a prison" and that he considered "the body as the sepulchre of the soul". Taylor in discussing an opinion of Macrobius ascribed to him the conception that "the soul in the present life may be said to die, as far as it is possible for a soul to die; occultly intimating that the death of the soul was nothing more than a profound union with the ruinous bonds of the body."





One noted that the incarnation or entry of the soul into the body was often alluded to as a burial! Then Pythagoras had written that "whatever we see when awake is death". Likewise the great Plotinus had given hints such as the following:





"Death to the soul is to descend into matter and be entirely subjected to it. This is what is meant by falling asleep in Hades."




And the renowned Virgil, the Roman poet, had shown that he was imbued with this same Greek philosophy when he wrote:




"Souls are deadened by earthly forms and members subject to death."



Plato had compared our tenure of bodily forms to the situation of an oyster in its shell. And Socrates had soliloquized in a long passage on the subject of death, asking Cebes if it might not after all be true that we had come hither from a far more radiant life elsewhere, and that we should properly regard the present life as in reality a death.




"May it not be true that we are really dead?" he asks, intimating, like Wordsworth, that we seem at times to have faint glimpses of a more vivid existence from which we have fallen into this dullness of mortal life.




It had been a matter of some surprise, also, to note Milton’s expression of Adam’s astonishment in the Paradise Lost, when on being driven from the garden under condemnation of death, our first father found his sentence taking the form of a lingering existence, not a destruction of his life, as he had expected. He discovered that his "death" meant not his extinction, but a less vivid type of life. He found himself condemned to a "living" death. He was made to live and "suffer death", not to be annihilated.



We must regard such expressions as this of Milton as being remnants of the ancient philosophical tradition, which we find so tersely expressed again in the Gorgias of Plato:



"But indeed, as you say also, life is a grievous thing. For I should not wonder if Euripides spoke the truth when he says: ‘Who knows whether to live is not to die, and to die is not to live?’ And we perhaps are in reality dead.



For I have heard from one of the wise that we are now dead; and that the body is our sepulchre; but that the part of the soul in which the desires are contained is of such a nature that it can be persuaded and hurled upward and downwards."




Thomas Taylor gives a portion of the comment of Olympiodorus on this passage, as follows:



"For the soul, coming hither, as she imparts life to the body, so she partakes through this of a certain privation of life; but this is an evil. When separated, therefore, from the body, she lives in reality; for she dies here, through participating of privation of life, because the body becomes the source of evils. And hence it is necessary to subdue the body."



The idea here hinted at is one of the basic theses of the Greek philosophy. For the Greek mind, with conceptions derived from the Orphic wisdom, considered that all life resulted from streams of vivific energy flowing forth from God, or the One, the infinite fount of all things, sweeping on, as they express it in Thomas Taylor’s quaint language, "from on high as far as to the last of things".




These streams of force sprang outward from the heights of spiritual energy and suffered diminution of their power as they preceeded farther and farther from the primal source, until at last they came to a pause in the inert arms of matter. Their living quality was countered and finally stifled in the meshes of matter, where motion came to a "dead" halt or suffered "death".




The "dying away" of a voice or other sound, or of the ripple made by casting a stone in the pond, is allegorical of the type of "death" here signified. Life comes out from its first Cause and meets its death in the bosom of matter.




But again we are required to distinguish between the "death"of a power and its absolute annihilation or extinction. Life was merely held quiescent in the grip of an element able to silence its activities. It had not ceased to be. Its powers had only gone into latency. They would emerge again.



In this connection it might be well for us to pause and face an obvious implication of the data before us. For in the strict sense of the term, we must realize that such a thing as death in the sense of total annihilation either of being or matter is an unthinkable and impossible thing. That which IS can’t cease to BE. That only which can happen to it is a change of state or transmutation of form.



It can only come into manifestation and go out again, yet never is not. In the shadow of which considerations we must accustom our minds to contemplate what is called death anywhere as the passing from a more to a less vivid and active state of manifestation.




"Death" is therefore accurately defined as the less heightened, less vibrant, condition of any form of being or life. And this gives solid philosophical base for the re-establishment of the ancient meaning of "death".




But in spite of scores of such texts and many similar hints before one’s eyes, the force of fixed habitudes of thought proved as yet too strong for the full realization of the meaning wrapped up in the term to come clear to consciousness. The mind was still held fast by the delusion that the old philosophers were only speaking fancifully, or in poetic figures, of the dreary character of moral life.




As life is often called a "hell on earth", one might easily extend the metaphor and make of it a veritable "death".




One thought the idea was poetry, not conceiving that in a deeper sense it was also theology. Doubtless many a scholar in the face of this material has formed the same opinion and rested at that point. But the discovery had not yet been made. One was to go farther.





The next step was taken when in reading Lewis Spence’s Myths and Legends of Egypt, the Egyptian form of the title of the so-called Book of the Dead was for the first time encountered. It was given as Peri-em-heru, and was translated as meaning




"The Day of Manifestation," or, "The Coming Forth by Day," or "Into the Daylight." It presumably was in reference to the end of a long period of life in darkness. This translation at once provoked the reflection that there was a mysterious incongruity between the Egyptian title and the English one (given to it by the German scholar Lepsius.)




How could a book whose title read The Coming Forth By Day be fitly named the Book of the Dead? Something was amiss here. Some one had blundered. Yet the book dealt mainly with the great trial of the soul of the deceased in the Hall of Judgment, the Hall of Osiris; and Osiris was the Lord of Amenta, the realm of the dead, the dark underworld.




He was the king of "those in their graves". It was apparently the book of the typical Christian judgment, enacted in the world of souls following the demise of the body. Yet its original title was The Day of Manifestation. Here was mystification and a thrilling enigma. One knew that the Greeks had derived most of their profoundest conceptions from the Egyptians.




Was their figurative use of the word "death" based on some hidden meaning in the Book of the Dead? Could it be possible, one conjectured, that all mediaeval and modern scholarship had missed fundamental meaning by failure to catch some legerdemain of ancient symbolism?





Could it be that some mighty truth lurked undiscovered under the metaphor? The mind caught the flash of a possibility; it seemed too arrant a supposition for serious acceptance. We had caught the truth by the tail, but the mind was not yet able to hold it fast. It struggled loose.





Shortly after this episode the study of the wondrous Egyptian mythical religion was undertaken in full earnestness. The approach to this rich mine of truth was fortunately by way of the books of Gerald Massey, the sole Egyptologist in the ranks of scholars who measurably understood what the sages of Egypt were talking about. It may be said in passing that the renowned Egyptologists have missed the import of that body of sublime material utterly.




Massey came nearer the inner sanctuary of understanding than any other. The reading of his volumes, Ancient Egypt, The Light of the World, had proceeded through some two hundred pages when it became apparent that some statements relative to Plato’s doctrine of Reminiscence brought Massey into direct conflict with certain of the basic ideas of the Greek philosophy.




Was Massey daring to say that the great Plato was in error on this point? Sure enough; hardly had the page been turned when the English scholar boldly challenged the Greek sage in a statement that he (Plato) "had misapplied" the Egyptian doctrine of memory of our past existences.



But one knew without a moment’s doubt that not Plato, but Massey, had misapplied the doctrine. Suddenly it was realized that Massey’s entire position with regard to what he calls the "eschatology" in ancient religions was wrongly conceived.




And just as suddenly, out of the quandary of the thought elements involved in Massey’s mistaken critique of Plato, flashed at last the full truth as to what the ancients meant to be understood by "death".



The light of vision flashed, and the lost key to the ancient Scriptures was once more in hand. As by the waving of a magic wand the whole meaning of religion, in its large and basic features, was bodied forth in vivid light on the screen of mind. At last one could see "what religion was all about".






One could now trace clearly the hitherto obscured outlines of the entire structural system by which religion had been presented by the sages of old to the early races. The whole body of ancient sacred writing was at one stroke redeemed from dark meaninglessness to pertinent reference.



Light, understanding, lucid meaning darted with the speed of thought across the whole field of religious interpretation. The ultimate principle of explanation and synthesis had been found. The background and reference of all religious myth and allegory and symbol had come to light.



The experience of the moment was one never to be forgotten. The stupendous implications of the new datum began to flood the mind until they threatened to overwhelm it by their sheer magnitude.



The first realization brought a sense of the incredible magnificence of the structure of the ancient wisdom. As the revelation sent the rays of a new discernment of meaning in every direction through the old theological material, the mental sense reeled in presence of a veritable epiphany of Cosmic Mind in sublime manifestation.



The mind was thrilled and then awed by gleam on gleam of new comprehension. But the very brilliance of the intellectual light thus suddenly released induced a saddening reflection, for it revealed by contrast the appalling darkness of the prevalent religious intelligence.




Side by side with the ancient flame of spiritual wisdom the murky feebleness of present religious conceptions was disclosed for the first time in glaring repulsiveness. How shameful had been the degradation of lofty spiritual ideology was only now seen fully when the heights from which it had fallen were brought into towering view.



One saw the lamentable corruption, the incredible distortion, which clear knowledge had undergone. It grew unmistakably evident that the main purpose of religion in the world had been defeated; that its meaning had missed fire; that mankind in the main had been cheated of the message put into its hands by the demigods of bygone ages. History could be distressingly seen as the misguided struggling of races deprived of the light they should have had.





If Christian nations were to possess the light again, it would become necessary for dogmatic theology to confess its unconscionable crudity and accept thoroughgoing correction, to be aligned once more with the nobility of its ancient ancestry.




And what was the discovery that released all this vision and comprehension? What was it that flashed in that moment of wrestling with Massey’s entanglement in Plato’s doctrine of Reminiscence? It was the lost meaning of "death".




With overwhelming certitude had come the perception that when the ancient writers of sacred books of religion spoke of "death" they referred to our present life on earth in these bodies of flesh! And when they spoke of "the dead", they again referred to us, here and now, alive as we seem to be!





And by the terms grave, tomb, coffin, sepulchre, mummy-case, out of which we would be resurrected they meant these living bodies of ours! In their theology, to die was to incarnate in bodies on earth.




It was found that the two words "womb" and "tomb" are from the same stem and convey the same connotation. He who enters life by way of the womb has entered the tomb of living death.



In their eyes, death was to live the kind of life we are living here. In reality, as calm reflection then for the first time clearly indicated, for the soul there is no such thing as death, in the sense of total destruction, for the soul is indestructible.



For it death could be at any time only a matter of relative intensity or degree of life, and this would be dependent upon the character and materiality of the embodiment in which it might find itself functioning at different stages of its growth.



And one saw then that our life here fitly deserved the appellation of death because it was the most sluggish, inert and restricted sphere of existence in which it was ever called upon to become embodied and imprisoned.





This type of life was the profoundest "death" it was ever subjected to, as an individual entity! It could go no lower, be restricted no more completely, than it was here.



It came as an astonishing realization in this connection, that we could never be any more "dead" than we are now in our mortal habitat. We are truly in the very jaws of "death", in the "valley of the shadow of death", and we are therefore the "dead" of all the ancient philosophical books.




Religion had been designed as instruction and guidance for "those in their graves" of earth-life, and its sacred books were meant to be a light for us, "the dead", in the dark underworld of Hades, Sheol, Amenta!




But long ago was lost the knowledge that such instruction was for us, that we were "the dead" for whom all religious systems were devised, and for whose resurrection out of the tomb of the physical body the whole end and aim of religion was envisaged.




The first corollary from this basic conception was the knowledge that the resurrection could not connote the mere raising of decaying physical bodies from out a rocky hillside tomb!



It referred to the re-arising of the buried soul from out its physical prison, its rending at last of the fleshly veil of the temple, its bursting the bars of death in the body, which was the only grave, sepulchre, tomb or sarcophagus that the wise ancients ever had in view in the promulgation of their great Easter message!




The whole framework, therefore, of the religious temple was seen to be constructed of spiritual, not of historical elements. The Gospel narrative was, then, a series of spiritual allegories, designed to depict the nature of our own personal soul-life, the history of Everyman’s experience in the world of flesh and matter, or in the "realm of the dead".




Further research and constant checking of the "theory" against the possibility of misconception or error finally placed the overwhelming weight of mountainous scholarly data back of the interpretation and made possible the announcement of the discovery as an assured fact.




Not a single item of ancient philosophy, not a statement anywhere in ancient texts, controverts this conclusion in the least degree; whereas every new bit of testimony fortified its tenure and increased its unassailability. Any theologian or scholar is challenged to refute it.



Knowing to what a degree the ignorant literalists of the third and fourth centuries had despoiled the Christian Scriptures of their many vestiges of the arcane spiritual Gnosis, one hardly expected to find any outright corroborations of the thesis in the Bible itself. But the Bible is "The Book Nobody Knows", and many and surprising are the texts one may find therein.




Imagine, then, with what astonishment one could greet the discovery of a remarkable passage in Revelation, which abundantly confirmed the conclusion that the narrative of Jesus’s life was the typical portrayal of the purely spiritual experience of the soul, or "the god", in this realm of death.






The verse refutes the entire story of the physical crucifixion on Calvary, and therefore inferentially of the physical resurrection of the Lord from a rock-grave outside the city of Jerusalem. It is in Rev. XI, 8, and, speaking of the two witnesses for Christ slain by the dragon, runs:



"And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified."



Here we have Revelation declaring in words as clear as can be found, that our Lord was crucified, not in historical Jerusalem, but in a spiritual city, a city, furthermore, with two names, one of which is not even a city name, but that of a country, Egypt.



Not only does this verse negate the whole literal and historical interpretation of the Gospel chronicle, but it adds its own corroboration to the new rendering of the meaning of "death".



For the place where the dead bodies of the two witnesses, the two segments of our dual life as soul and body, shall lie, as well as where the Christ in us is crucified, is thus marked as the place of "death", which, as the new truth reveals, is this earth and our life upon it.




And it is further significant that Revelation gives as one of its (many) names, Egypt. No one can long study Hebrew, Greek and Egyptian religious literature without being assured that this term, Egypt, is used, never in the sense of the geographical unit on the map, but as the chief designation for the place, country or habitat of earthly incarnation. It is therefore a figurative term for life on earth, or earth as the scene of incarnate life.





To "go down into Egypt" is a certain cryptogram for the "descent into incarnation", or being born on earth. It is therefore equivalent to life in the body.




And indeed the name does often connote directly the body itself. And here we have an interesting sidelight on the meaning of a term often used, and of course used erroneously,"the flesh-pots of Egypt".





In our ignorance of ancient symbolism we have taken it to mean cooking pots full of edible flesh, on which we feed more or less gluttonously. It was supposed to be a reference to our addiction to the gastronomical pleasures of consuming a lot of beef, pork and mutton.




But in the light of the corrected view, it is at once seen to denote nothing more than these physical bodies of ours. For they are indeed the vessels (pots) of flesh in which our souls have taken lodgement for the period of their life-cycles on earth. The "flesh-pots of Egypt" are only our bodies.




Egypt, then, is the place where a bondage is suffered, where hard taskmasters drive one to unceasing toil, where the members of the nation are scattered (the dispersion), where there is famine and death, where there are plagues and pestilences, where nature herself becomes verily full of scourgings.




In the Old Testament the Eternal, The Lord, frequently calls Egypt "that slave pen" (see Moffatt translation.) And if Egypt is the type of our incarnational bondage, or our becoming subject to "the law of the flesh", then the "Exodus" from it must be in all respects equivalent to "the resurrection" of the New Testament. With symbolism varied, it is indeed the same allegorism.




For after a sojourn in the land of "Egypt" we are released in the fulfilment of the cycle. And always the "Exodus" from this "far country" (see the Prodigal Son allegory) is made by crossing a water, the Reed Sea, Styx, Jordan, Black Sea, Sea of Galilee (Galilee means "waterwheel"), "Dead Sea", or other lake or stream.



(For those who take their Bible literally and geographically it will come as a hard blow to be told that their Red Sea of the map and atlas is now gone out of the Bible altogether!




It is no more, and strictly, never was, in the Bible! It was there only by sufferance of a mistake. A proper rendering is the "Reed Sea" and it is so given in the Moffatt translation. It is one of the ancient designations for the realm of incarnate life, equivalent to the "Papyrus Swamps of Egypt" or the "Reedy Sea" (Ebers) of the life in the body which is itself a "swamp" or "mire" in the sense that it is a mixture of water with earth elements.)





To cross a sea or river was figurative language for crossing the whole stretch of our incarnate earthly existence. To go through life in the body was designated as a sailing over great waters. Likewise to undergo the baptism by water was but another poetic mode of typifying our experience in the waters of this bodily life.




The Psalmist time and again writes of the terrors of his soul at being flooded by great waters, billows, water-floods. "Thy waves have gone over me, the water-floods have come in unto my soul.



Save me, O God, out of the great waters". Jonah, plunged in the watery deeps, cried to God to save him "from the belly of death". Water and death are here equated, and Paul has done the same thing when he speaks of "suffering death with him (Jesus) in his baptism".




Incarnation is a hundred times portrayed under the figure of a plunge into the water and coming up again. Baptism theologically never meant anything other than to live the life in body, and at least one phase of the aptness of the figure can be seen when it is realized that these bodies of ours are about seven-eighths water by composition. The other fraction is of earthly elements, giving us the basis of the ancient symbolism of incarnate life as a swamp or mire.




Then came the forceful recognition of a second corollary, equal in vital significance to the first. If this earth was the grave or tomb of the soul, then, under the ever-recurring title of the "dark underworld", this life was also the literal Hades or "hell" of theology!




Here on earth was the "dark valley of Hinom" (Old Testament), the valley of dry bones (which were to be reunited, reanimated and restored), the "valley of the shadow of death", the Hebrew Sheol, the Greek Hades, the Egyptian Amenta, "the night’s Plutonian shore" of Poe’s Raven, the realms of Avernus, Orcus and Tartarus, the vale of Lethe, where the sluggish Phlegethon and the dark and murky Styx flowed between the shores of life and death, the abysmal dungeon of Tophet, and the dark and gloomy underworld of all religions, opposed to the radiant and sunny "upper world" or heaven. Ever this was the "realm of the dead", ruled over by Pluto, or Osiris, or Yama, or Seb or other infernal deity. And we, says the Book of the Dead, are "the sleepers in their coffins."












No phase or development in connection with the discovery was more revealing and illuminating than the perception of how the world’s most eminent scholars had wrestled with the necessity of finding the proper location for this shadowy Tartaric abode of the dead, driven on by their failure to identify it with the life here on earth.



Distinguishing it sharply from the life in body, and plagued constantly by its name of "the dark underworld," they were almost forced to locate it in some mythical region of gloom under the actual ground.



This seemed the more plausible because a "cave" or "grot" was another of the symbols used to typify this life. Only the absurdity of so doing deterred them from this asinine decision. Some were content to take it as referring to the six-foot grave under the surface of the cemetery grass, the dark home of the physical corpse.




Most interesting of all was the mental squirming to which even Massey was driven to find a tenable solution of the problem. He thought he had his upon a plausible explanation when he divided human life into its two phases of bodily incorporation on earth and its disembodied existence as spirit following the death (of the body).



To match the Egyptian mention of the Two Lands, the Two Earths, or Heaven and Earth, he allocated the "dark underworld" of Amenta to the second phase or the existence in spirit world, and called it the Earth of Eternity, in contradistinction to the life here, which he called the Earth of Time.




Could he and the others have but known that the earthly life was itself the "dark underworld", i.e., under the heaven world, and not beneath the ground of earth, they would have seen their analytical difficulties smoothed away in a moment.




They were like the man who goes around hunting for what he holds in his hands all the while. They ranged about in every corner of heaven and earth to locate the underworld of Amenta, not knowing they were in it all the time.





Had Gerald Massey been astute enough to grasp the correct status and location of the Egyptian Amenta, and carry its implications through the body of theological dogmatism, he would have done a work entitling him to be rated as one of the greatest benefactors of mankind in its struggle against superstition.



He missed the pinnacle by his single failure to see through the trick of the ancient symbolizers of spiritual truth, in calling this world the realm of "the dead in their graves."




Still counting little on Biblical corroboration of the amended interpretation of "death", we were quite startled again to come unexpectedly a little later upon a text from the third chapter of Revelation (Moffatt Translation), which seemed to give to the new thesis all the scriptural support that one could ask. Words could hardly be plainer:




"I know your doings, you have the name of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up, rally what is still left to you, though it is on the very point of death; for I find nothing you have done is complete in the eyes of my God. If you will not wake up, I shall come like a thief. Still you have a few souls that have not soiled their raiment."





It is expected that exception will be taken to the application of this statement to humanity in general, when it stands as part of the evangelist’s injunction to one of the "seven churches" in Asia.



Perhaps it is too much to hope that naive literalism has yet passed beyond the stage at which these "churches" of Revelation are taken for church congregations in the modern sense.





It is sufficient to reply that the reference of the passage is surely not locale, but racial in a spiritual sense. And what words could better depict the very situation in which the ancient Greek seers envisaged us?




We have the name of being alive, but we are dead! "Ye are dead in your trespasses and sins", avers St. Paul. "The wages of sin is death", he repeats, adding, "To be carnally minded is death". And under what other anthropological conditions is man likely to become tempted to carnal mindedness than those which go with his linkage to the body of flesh?




And this incarnation came partly as the result of "ancient wrongs" perpetrated by man in former cycles, so that his "death" or incarnation is in one sense the "wages of sin". "For ye are dead", Paul shouts once more, "and your life is hid with Christ in God". To these assurances there was added a startlingly direct passage from Isaiah: "We live in darkness like the dead".




There came to mind, too, Paul’s asseveration of a daily process of dying, as we put off the old Adam, the carnal mortal man, and put on Christ. And in II Corinthians he elaborated this statement to give it fuller meaning:



"Also bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus. For we which live are always delivering unto death for Jesus’s sake. So then death worketh in us.

"Passages such as these could be multiplied. Jesus himself had said unto Martha:



"I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live." He was evidently telling us that although we are entombed in the "miry clay" of the earthly body, our grasp on the reality of the indwelling Christos will safely anchor us to the life of the higher spirit, which is eternal.<
