In his book on the teachings of Atlantis, author Jon Peniel mentioned that the stars of our galaxy (and therefore all other galaxies) get their energy from the Black Hole at the center of the galaxy, which flies in the face of what science currently holds to be true, namely that black holes simply gobble up matter and energy and give nothing in return.

Science holds that the gravity in a black hole is so strong that light itself cannot escape.  I wonder whether or not light is even supposed to go back into a black hole in the first place?  If all the things in the galaxy come out of the black hole, then why, and for that matter, how would anything even get back into it?

A black hole seems to me to be the most obvious macrocosmic example of the female generative organ from which all earthly life springs.  I use the Principle of Correspondence here.  All of creation springs forth from a union of opposites, creating a “child” of sorts depending on the nature of the union itself.  On a Cosmic scale, the child would appear to be all of the visible universe itself.  All of these stars, planets, moons, comets, and stardust originate in physical form from the Black hole at the center of each galaxy.  But why does the black hole even create anything around it?  Where does it get the idea to do so?  As far as I can tell the answer is as simple as it is evasive—the idea comes from God itself.

The whole of creation is the result of a union of opposite forces, of male and female forces.  The ultimate female force in the visible Cosmos would appear to be the Black Hole.  And yet the curious thing is a black hole is invisible…just like God, the ultimate male force in the Cosmos, though not necessarily visible in any way.  In fact, there is a saying in the occult world that “God is the Sun behind the sun”.  It is the Limitless Light behind the visible light we see with our senses.  Kabala teaches that the Limitless Light is what is beyond even our highest human conception of God.

If you think it is difficult to understand how a whole galaxy could originate from and orbit around a completely invisible point in space that must exist because it exerts staggering influence on the entire galaxy, then imagine how much more incomprehensible God is when one considers that all of that material stuff in the whole universe originated from a thought, and idea that originated with the Godly male force which is behind the Godly female force that gives birth to that thought-idea.

And then imagine that there is something behind the actions and the very existence of both of these opposing forces.  What is that something?

Could it be Love?

“It’s Love that holds it all together.  It’s Love that’s holding back the weather, and the same will let it go.”—lyrics from It’s Love, by King’s X.

In the Bible is found the simple phase, “God is Love.”  Of course this is referring to the Ultimate, the Infinite, the Source Itself (and not simply to the male half of the manifested opposites that give us the Dualistic universe to perceive).  As it currently am able to perceive it, the whole universe along with all of us sentient beings as well, are the result of a splitting of this Love into Dual forces.

Eternal life is eternal death.  We come together as lovers like mad people trying to kill ourselves with little orgasms so we can catch a pathetically small glimpse of the Ultimate, the Infinite.  And what is that exactly?  The complete loss of individual ego, merging with the Source that gave birth to the ego itself, due to the Polarizing effects of existence, of life itself.

Life is suffering…so said the Buddha.  Life is suffering because it is a pale attempt at existence “outside” the sphere of the Infinite.  Inside of the sphere of the Ultimate, there is no Duality, no existence except in a bornless state, an existenceless existence that is the Singular and therefore Naught nature of the Infinite God itself.  The Infinite gave birth to existence and to life, and all appears to be “outside” of oneself.  But Yoga teaches that the True Reality of the Absolute God is to be found “within” oneself.  It is to be found “inside” of the non-existent “place” that gave birth to the Dualistic reality in the first place.

Eternal Life, which is Peace Everlasting, is to be found in Eternal Death.  When one can merge both one’s Life with one’s Death, then Enlightenment and Liberation can follow, liberation from Life and Death itself.  The “light” in enlightenment is the Limitless Light taught in the Kabala.  It is the Ultimate Light of Source, of the Infinite.  It is found “within God” itself.  The practice of Yoga helps one to find this Infinite Source of Light, which is the Home that all of our souls yearn for to end this suffering called life.  To end life, one must die.  But how to do that while yet living?  One word—Yoga.

Yoga is, seen from one perspective, imitating death while yet living.  And the uniting of these grand opposites produces the experience of non-experience itself, of the Duality become One, which is in fact Naught or Nothing, for anytime and anywhere there exists one, there exists its opposite.  Unite the two and there is nothing left for there cannot exist just one.  The unification of the opposites finally brings about an end to the suffering experienced as a result of Life which appears as an exteriorized separate existence from the Infinite Source called God.  God is Naught.  God is the something that is nothing.  God is the Two that is Equal to Naught, or expressed another way, God is 2 = 0.

We say that Love is the force that unites.  But more than this, Love is the nature of God Itself, as expressed in the Bible.  God has apparently shattered and separated its Eternal Love nature in order to have experience outside of itself, which appears separated from the very Source which created the experience in the first place.  For Love’s sake, it divided.  For Love’s sake, we must re-unite.

It is Love that is behind it all.  It is Love that is the Sun behind the sun.  It is Love that is the Limitless Light itself which is the Ultimate Source, the Eternal Peace.

We are all headed for this Ultimate destination.

How soon that is all depends on you.

The pure Self, or Atman, exists in its purest state of Naught, or No Thought.  As soon as the thought itself appears, mind appears.  There are 3 states of being.

Dreamless Sleep, which is Pure Awareness of the Self, the Self awareness of its Self with no taint of ego, the experience of which seems like a Void or Nothing, reality being masked by the Absence of thought;

Dreaming state, in reality is obscured by thoughts, which appear as real to the dreamer as do ‘objects’ do in the Wakeful state;

Wakeful state, in which reality is masked by objects, which are crystallized thoughts.

Enlightenment is in one interpretation, a process of realizing each state in such fullness and completeness that one’s Awareness (as opposed to one’s Mind) can move from one state to another at will with no restrictions.  Again, Enlightenment & Liberation almost seem a process of becoming bored with Egoism and the “existence” that results from the very inception of Thought itself.

Again…Thought itself is the problem.

When one becomes tired with the constant dreaming-creating that results in our own imprisonment in the matrix, all desires and attachments, which are the offspring of thought itself, finally cease.  Yoga is the science of the “Cessation of the fluctuations of Mind-stuff.”

The mind itself must be destroyed, as it is the vehicle of thoughts that arise from the Self’s Egotistic self importance, until the Self one day finally learns that it is one with God and has no use of thinking anymore.  All thoughts are exhausted.  All endless patterns of manifestation are explored and experienced, either in physical or astrally or just mentally.  Once Egotistical experience is satiated, the Self can rest and stop endlessly creating within the confines of the Laws of this manifestation.

It is because the Mind itself that must be destroyed that Yogis often employ a technique that brings the mind and the thoughts that generate it, to a standstill.  If one would desire Eternal Peace, the True Heaven spoke of by the mystics, one must DESTROY thought itself, which arise out of the Ego, which wants everything except such Peace because it knows that this Peace means its total destruction.

The Buddha used a method of meditation by which he brought to a standstill the thoughts in his mind.  Enlightenment ensued.  The destruction of Desire, which is the Cause of Life itself, brings about an end to this existence which is the True Hell, and a birth into a new existence of Eternal Peace.

Every time you desire anything at all, it causes ideas or thoughts and that requires mind.  To destroy desire and attain enlightenment and liberation, one must cease having thoughts and ideas in general, which means one stops having desires (which arise out of ego) of different sorts, such as mental, astral, and physical.  In part, desires are caused by reactions to everyday life.  When one can relieve his egotistic soul of the need to react to any life-stimulus, which is caused by “leftover” subconscious programs, then one will experience a much more balanced, peaceful existence, which ultimately manifests as the naught, void, the realization of the Self experienced in Enlightenment.

The degree by which you are not affected by the fluctuations of everyday life, no matter how seemingly important one perceives the occurrences to be, is the degree by which you can measure how far away from enlightenment you are.  There is an old Zen story.  A student once asked his teacher, “What is holy?”  The teacher replied, “A mountain of shit on a silver plate!”  The lesson here is that when you arrive at the state of enlightenment, you stop applying artificial labels and identifications to all phenomenon you experience here in the matrix.  Things considered gross by the common people simply do not affect the yogi.

Continuing in this vein, there is a saying from yoga philosophy which states that in the small pond-like minds of the unenlightened, the stirring of a small fish causes titanic waves of mental disturbance, but within the oceanic mind of a yogi the surging wave actions of whales cause hardly a ripple.  Stated in more common terms, a terrorist attack such as what occurred on 9-11-2001 do not cause the same reactions in a yogi or adept as do the rest of the world.  The whole world reacted with horror.  But the enlightened experience such an event as just another occurrence which is ascribed no more significance than if only one person had died.

Again, when one possesses an awareness level approaching the Eternal, there are fewer and fewer distinctions, interpretations and labels applied to observable phenomenon.  Stated another way, the Enlightened are Neutral to the endless dramas of life which affect the rest of us with such intensity.  On the surface, their demeanor is one of total apathy.  In fact, one could say that as one approaches Enlightenment, one would experience an attitude towards the world bordering on the boring, caused by their own lack of psychological and emotional interest in the phenomenal dream-world.

But that is not to say that they are without Love of Compassion.  In fact they are more possessed of such feelings than most of us can ever imagine.  They do feel compassion for those who suffer, which is everyone who is not enlightened.  Remember Buddha’s words, “Life is suffering.”  But there is a way out of suffering.  There is a Path out of suffering.  The way is to follow the example of the Enlightened.  It is the ONLY way.  No one can do the work for you.  It must be done on your own with total concentration and devotion coupled with the same persistence found in the most diabolically evil people of history.  Evil people never give up.  That is why they succeed in causing so much turmoil for everyone else.  Likewise the Enlightened succeeded because they never gave up.  They persisted in the face of all adversity, trials and tribulations.

This is the way out of Hell, which is Life, which is Suffering caused by the very inception of Thought itself.  Choose a method of meditation or some spiritual practice that can quiet the mind utterly.  Practice it everyday.  Never give up.  Focus on becoming ONE with God.  Sooner or later, depending on one’s own efforts at such, Enlightenment will happen.

Follow the example of those enlightened people who have come before.  This is the only way…by example do they lead us and by example do we follow, thereby becoming like them and setting examples for others to follow us as well.

By following the example of the enlightened do we succeed in attaining our own enlightenment, where all other attempts at such have failed.

In the Western magical tradition there is a teaching, or more accurately a warning that the magician must avoid the temptation to “sell his soul” to a spirit or demon during the process of pursuing God.  In the Eastern spiritual tradition there is a philosophical teaching of paramount importance which stresses the avoidance of “attachments” that detract the seeker along his journey up the path to enlightenment.

With the Principle of Correspondence being what it is, it should come as no surprise that there is a correlation between these two teachings from either side of the globe.  The fact is they are identical, being just differing perspectives of the same Spiritual Truth.

Western magical adepts have for centuries admonished the magician about giving away his power to one particular spirit or being because it would stunt his evolution on the way to Godhood.  Normally this giving away of power is done with an agreement or contract, sometimes written down on paper (sometimes even in blood), between the magician and the spirit.  The western master Franz Bardon even mentioned the possibility that if the magician spends too much time working with any one being, a bond would occur nonetheless, even though no contract was actually created.  Spending too much time with one being or within one particular sphere of spiritual influence can send the magician out of balance on a permanent basis, unless he can see the error of his ways in time.

In the East, the yogi is warned to let go of his attachments to anything in God’s creation, to not become obsessed (to use a more modern term) with anything at all, with the possible exception of God Itself.  The yogis teach that it is our attachments or desires for anything other than God Itself that keep us here trapped in life, tied to the earth, and forever stuck on the not-so-merry go round that is the wheel of life.  The wheel of obsessions, desires, & attachments goes forever around, carrying us along until we decide to simply let go of these neurosis that trap us here.  Should we refuse to let go of our attachments or even worse become obsessed with them, then what we have here is the Eastern equivalent of the Western concept of “selling your soul”.

While these two seemingly different spiritual occurrences from different hemispheres are truly one and the same, it should be pointed out that there is really no such thing as “selling your soul” since it was not created by “you” and it is therefore not yours to give away as such.  A more accurate description of this western concept of “selling your soul” is to say that you are “selling your freewill” or “selling your right to choose”, in this case giving away your right to make a purely voluntary conscious choice to align with God in exchange for mistakenly aligning with one mere aspect of the Infinite Creator instead of the Whole.

When a magician or yogi commits this error of becoming obsessed or attached to something other than the Infinite, then pain and suffering follow him all his life and even into the afterlife and on into the next rebirth of life unless he directs his consciousness towards the Infinite God to “save his soul” and find “redemption”.  This salvation is accomplished thru the help of developing one’s own Pure Consciousness, which is the East is also called Krishna Consciousness, which in the West is called Christ Consciousness.  “Christ” is nothing less than a “spiritual vehicle” of Pure Consciousness that “saves us” from making judgments about the reality we perceive, and helps prevent us from allowing attachments to pollute our soul.  In this context alone is the Christian concept of “Salvation thru Christ” to be truly understood.

The only way for a magician or yogi to succeed in his quest for the Infinite is to develop his own Divine Vehicle or Consciousness of Christ within himself.  When this is done, then there is no chance of ever losing one’s soul, or more accurately one’s free will choice to experience nothing less than God, to some spirit or demon because with the presence of the Christ Consciousness, the spiritual aspirant will simply not be focused on trying to “get something” from a spirit or demon, which is just an aspect of the Infinite God, because he is already in touch with the Infinite and effortlessly receives all he needs directly from the Supreme Source, no bargaining with spirits and demons needed.

Dr. Timothy Leary once said that the Universe is like a Rorschach’s ink blot test.  Life itself is a test.  It is a test of the Soul to see whether or not we will use our Free Will to serve ourselves or to serve God.  The choice is simple, really.  If you focus on God, you serve God, and come to Truly Know God to the point where can Eternally merge with God Itself, becoming One with God as it were.  However if you focus on something less than God, then that will become your reality, your obsession, your attachment for Eternity, a “contractual obligation” with a miniscule spirit or demon until you release yourself from such a foolish “bargain” and seek the Infinite Source Itself.

Until that day comes when we stop subscribing to our personal interpretation of what we think “reality” is, thereby obsessing and attaching ourselves to an interpretation of said reality, and simply let Pure unfiltered Consciousness inform us of what “reality” really is, then we shall all suffer from the spiritual sickness of having “sold our souls” or “sold our freewill right to choose”.  We will all be slaves to various spirits or demons that live within our selves.

One of the biggest temptations along the Path is to obsess with one spirit or demon in exchange for something, usually riches, power or love.  Generally magicians and yogis find themselves tempted to spend time and energy in trying to develop some magical power that will grant whatever they wish.  More often than not they will obsess or attach themselves to such an endeavor for a time.  It is unfortunate that many get lost in this manner, forcing their souls to have to try again in another lifetime.

Perhaps the point of this essay will be easier to grasp fro most readers from another perspective.

One does not have to be a magician or yogi to fall prey to obsessive-ness or “selling one’s soul”.  Look around you, especially in the field of entertainment and the media.  Do you not see many actors, artists, musicians, and various other famous personalities falling prey to an unhealthy hunger for money, fame, prestige and power?  Some of them, after years of trying, seem to develop a “Midas touch” when it comes to their careers.  No matter what these “golden” ones do, they always succeed, for good or ill.  Many of them revel in their power and fame, using it to get other things such as more money or sex.  On a daily basis the viewing public is told that these people are leading the “good life” and we should all aspire to the same.

But seen from a spiritual perspective, these people are to be pitied.  Through many years of constant effort, they have literally and unwittingly become slaves, obsessively attached to all of the worldly evils imaginable.  They have fallen victim to the absolute worst demons without even knowing it.  Upon close examination, do these celebrities not seem almost possessed?  In Truth, many of them are possessed by demons and have no idea of such.  They are hopelessly stuck in a prison of their own making, caused by their own desires for everything the world has to offer.

Just as most magicians and yogis fail along the Path to God, so also precious few of these celebrities ever break free of their demons.  Usually when they do, it manifests as a loss of money and fame and respect.  The heartless media will tell the world that these people have failed in some way and are forgotten.  But from a spiritual perspective we can say that these defamed celebrities are very fortunate indeed because their demons have abandoned them, no longer providing the money, fame and power that have been trapping the poor souls for so long.  It has been said that “Fame is a bitch”.  Truly, fame can be considered a demon, the freedom from which is truly a blessing in a spiritual sense, allowing the now defamed to quietly pursue a spiritual life, if he/she is so inclined.

To sum up, the old occult bugaboo of “selling your soul to the devil” is not to so feared as first imagined.  All the serious seeker must do to avoid the pitfall of getting mired in the muck of the world is to simply focus on God, in whatever way is easiest for the seeker to comprehend.

If you think of God, then God, which is the only True Reality, will become your perceived reality.

If you think of ANYTHING else, you get what you asked for…

I have made the connection between the hermetic spiritual way that human love relationships should work and the way a neophyte must raise himself up spiritually as it pertains to the relationship between his spirit and soul.  This comes as a bit of a shock that I didn’t notice this before, as it is so obvious.

Simply stated, the basic proper Hermetic mode of operation in a human love relationship is for the man to lead the woman.

Likewise, within the spiritual neophyte, it is the indwelling Spirit (positive or male) that should lead the Soul (negative or female).

Though I don’t like quoting the bible, I will mention that it does say that in marriage a woman should follow her husband who should lead her to God, and lead both of them in general.  This is a remarkably overt bit of Truth in a book that on the surface seems loaded with hypocritical statements and undecipherable nonsense.  However, most people read that little statement about spiritual leadership and simply cannot understand its true meaning.  The result is that most Christian men use this little statement in the “good book” to justify all manner of unjust behavior and abuses towards their wives, all in the name of God.

What nearly none of them realize is that the statement is only true in an ideal type of spiritual relationship in which the man is already enlightened.  Only in this way can all manner of abuse and errors be avoided.

Late Night Analogy.  The thought just occurred that men and women relate to each other just like the Conscious and Subconscious parts of our minds relate to each other.  This insight results from utilizing analogy after comprehending the concept of the Hermetic Couple.

It is the job of the male-conscious part of the mind to receive information directly from God and transfer these thoughts and ideas into the female-subconscious part of the mind.  It is then the job of the female-subconscious part of the mind to manifest whatever idea-seed is placed into it.

This process that occurs in the mind is really no different from what we see in nature, with the seed falling on fertile soil and producing a tree or vine, etc.  In “Mother Nature” it is the seed that acts as the male, utilizing its DNA programming code to instruct feminine nature on what to produce, what fruit to create.  Each part is dependant on the other for fulfillment.  The seed is useless on its own.  Fertile soil is useless on its own.  Together, they transform each other into something different and greater than the sum of the individual parts.  The seed instructs nature.  In Nature itself…

The male leads the female.

This is the whole secret of Sex Magick.  In this esoteric practice, it is the duty of the man to keep his mind firmly focused on what goal he is after magickally, and it is the duty of the female to magickally manifest whatever was in the mind of the male operator, which is a natural ability of hers.  In sex magickal operations…

The male leads the female.

This is also the Key to correctly operating the Mind itself to create a useful life—use the imagination and will power (male functions) to access the void of the subconscious (female) and place into this mental “womb” the idea one wishes to manifest in the ordinary conscious waking world.  The mind is having sex with itself to produce your life as you know it.  Think junk, get junk.  Think happiness, get happiness.  This mental sexual activity is also the secret of Meditation and Hypnosis or mind programming.  In the correct operation of the mind…

The male leads the female.

These examples bring us back to the ideal correct Hermetic relationship between human beings.  Ideally,… The male leads the female.

No doubt this will be a huge shock to most women, who for the most part think that they are the real leaders in relationships because they almost always get what they want just by withholding sex from the man attached to her.  Such heartlessness & insanity are the actions of what we commonly call a bitch.  A bitch is a pitiful creature, a directionless woman who thinks she knows better than nature itself by ordering her man around.  All the world recognizes her and hates her, hardly knowing the real underlying reason for such universal disdain, which is her general rejection of the correct order of things.

Of course the fault is not entirely hers alone.  The reason most women turn into bitches is because the men they are with are spiritual pussies, for lack of a more attention-drawing term.

Most men are unaware (as are women) of their true spiritual natures or their proper roles in life.  Moreover they also do not know how to operate their minds, much less how to clean out the residue of neurosis that linger in the subconscious.  The result is a man who is led about by his own subconscious complexes and fears (as is nearly everyone).  The result when a man like this is coupled with an ordinary women is predictable.  She turns into a bitch and he into a henpecked husband.  Neither knows true happiness and never will, unless a drastic spiritual changes occurs.  Since this change rarely occurs in most marriages, the result is a national divorce rate over 50% and still getting worse.

Why does the woman turn into a hysterical bitch in the first place?  Fact is, she can’t help but behave this way because she represents nature itself, and nature needs to be instructed in order to be fulfilled, to be useful.  In nature, if the seed is of insufficient strength, imagination and will to provide the needed instructions, what happens?  The seed is destroyed.  It is literally nagged and bitched to death, in Nature’s own way.  The seed is attacked by nature itself, is abused by nature, corrupted by nature, and is absorbed by nature thru decomposition, literally vampirizing the seed till there is nothing left but an empty shell.

Take a thoroughly careful examination of any elderly couple who have endured an unhappy marriage…what is there?  An angry (bitchy) old woman and a powerless shell of a man (vampire victim).  Neither has any hope for happiness.  Both have wasted their lives.  Only death ends such tragedy.

Apply this same situation to the human mind and what do you get?  The same result!  Look around and what you do see?  People angry with themselves, mostly because their very lives are unfulfilled.  They have not taken control of their minds.  They have not consciously planted their goals into their mental womb of the subconscious.  They have reaped nothing with their lives and are now best with nothing but unhappiness and are angry (bitchy) with life itself.  Their whole life history is replete with dead seed-ideas that never came to fruition from out of their own minds.  Their own minds become bitchy and pissed off with itself.

Stated another way, the female subconscious half of the mind has never received sufficient mental stimulation from the male conscious half, necessary to arouse it into action to produce anything at all.  The result is a wasted life, an unused mind whose mental harvest fields are barren, strewn with empty seed shells.  The female subconscious revolts at not having been used, not being fulfilled and lashes out (bitches) at the conscious mind which reacts with sadness and depression at the messages coming from deep within, for it knows the truth of these messages.  The mind itself has been wasted.  And since mind itself creates life and the experience of life, the result is a wasted life thru disuse of the proper operation of the mind.

This is what one sees everywhere one looks.  Wasted lives.  Unused minds.  Untapped potential.  The subconscious can only return or produce what is plugged into it.  Since most people never operate their minds properly, they plug nothing but trash into their subconscious which manifests in a life equivalent to trash.  The subconscious mind takes over since the conscious is not busy leading it.  Most human beings behave like this without even knowing it.  They let their subconscious mind rule over their entire lives, simply out of lack of their own conscious effort at controlling it.

The result is that the manifestation of their own lives resembles the mindless, egocentric hysterical yammering of a bitch.

There is a saying—Life is a bitch and then you die.  I would also posit that the world itself, even the whole universe is a bitch, begging to be reined in and tamed.  Is our world anything but a fucked up mess?  Is your life anything but a fucked up mess?  Examine it!  Plato (or Aristotle??) said that the unexamined life is not worth living.  How true.  Your life will not become a peaceful affair until you make the sexual activity going on in your mind a peaceful affair.  Become Conscious!  Alert!  Aware!  Always!  Only then can it finally stop.

It is a little known perspective in spiritual circles that the spirit and soul are masculine and feminine in nature, respectively.  They are separate entities, though the words are often used interchangeably among spiritualists.  Being that they are of a different “sex” or more accurately expressed as “gender”, they are capable of sexual interaction, orgasm and generation.  Just as all living things of opposite genders are capable of such, so are the spirit and the soul.

How do the spirit and soul have sex?  One word—meditation.  When one meditates, one feels a certain peaceful sensation that is strangely (actually not so strangely) like the bliss one feels after a sexual encounter.  This bliss can be felt during the meditation and/or after the meditation.

But what is this blissful feeling that results from meditation?  It is orgasm, plain and simple.  Sex between opposites eventually results in an orgasm.  As anyone who has felt such, they will describe it as ecstasy or heaven, and even bliss.  This much is obvious.

What is not so obvious, even to most who practice meditation, is that they are essentially having sex within themselves, literally between god and their souls.  Perhaps it should come as no surprise that contact with god is blissful for a reason.  Few meditation practitioners ever realize this, and I suspect that most would be rather disturbed upon learning that every time they sit in a lotus position and close their eyes to “go within” they are getting it on with god.

In France, orgasm is called the “little death”.  Orgasm in men results in ejaculation (unless you are an advanced tantric practitioner) and a man’s orgasmic offering is literally a sacrifice.  It is with a bit of agitation that I state for the record that I know of literally no one, especially no woman, who can really appreciate a man’s orgasm for what it really is.

A man’s orgasm is quite literally a temporary death to his body.  During the building phase leading to orgasm, he is busy overloading his system with tremendous stress and energy, which eventually results in a sudden release of that energy thru a momentary and quite literal death.  Paradoxically, that death is felt as the most beautiful sensation.

Switching gears a bit.  Enlightenment of the soul itself is also a death, and orgasmic release as well.  It is the death of your own ego, which can be labeled the selfish part of your soul.  It is the death of your ego’s grasp to your attachments to this 3d reality, which results in a birth into another mode of existence.  The process of meditation itself is what brings on Enlightenment or death of the ego.  Again, this happens as a result of sexual interaction between the spirit and the soul.

Repeating, the spirit is quite literally a part of god, a divine spark if it helps comprehension, and is positive or masculine in nature.  The soul conversely, is a mirror of the spirit, like it but of opposite polarity, and is negative or feminine in nature.  During meditation, the male spirit quite literally has sex on an energetic level with the female soul.  As the meditation proceeds in time, an energetic tension is built up (just as in physical sex) as more and more energy is accumulated between the spirit and the soul.  Eventually a point is reached in the meditation where the energy must be released.  This release is felt as a tremendous bliss or ecstasy.  It is literally an orgasm on a purely energetic level.  The death that has occurred is the death of the ego’s attachments to things here in the 3d world.  This causes an increase in the blissful feelings felt by the soul caused by the influx of energy from the spirit to the soul.

Again, an obvious analogy can be drawn to the practice of tantric sex in which the man acts literally as an energy pump, filling up the receptive female participant with his energy until she experiences orgasm.  The difference here between tantric sex and ‘normal’ sex is that the man has no need to ejaculate in tantra, and in fact is generally avoided.  Rather he sacrifices the pleasurable feeling of issuing forth his semen, choosing instead to feel the uninterrupted flow of pleasurable energy flowing out of his body into his partner.  His love for his mate, in particular the godly spirit that lives in her, is the reason for his wanting to constantly give everything he can to her for it is her natural ability to transform his sexual energy that lifts both participants up to further heights of ecstasy and bliss.  In this way, they both experience a constant orgasm until they decide to stop.

In meditation, the meditator, using his willpower and concentration, focuses on god, or the inner spirit within him, attracting the godly spirit’s attention to his “bride” causing the spirit to “come unto” the bride of the soul and interact or have sex with the soul.  This action on the part of the meditator causes the eruption of bliss, which is the result of the love generated from the sexual interaction between the spirit and the soul.  But instead of creating physical children, the meditator re-creates himself body and soul, causing internal transformation thru the death of the ego’s attachments.  Eventually, all of these internal orgasms or “little deaths” of the soul result in a total death and rebirth of the soul which results in the final product we call Enlightenment, or Nirvana, which is the total cessation of the ego’s attachments, granting freedom or liberation.

Strange as it sounds, having attained Enlightenment can be compared to having a permanent ongoing tantric orgasm between the spirit and the soul, constant communion.

Liberation, I theorize, can be compared to a final super orgasm that results in permanent death or end of existence here in 3d, and results in a transformation or birth into another form of higher existence somewhere else, forever free of this place.

When I contemplate that too deeply, I find it a little disturbing.  A less disturbing notion would be to think of it this way.  Liberation is a letting go of this place (3d), so you can go to another plane (astral) to eventually let go of that too to move on beyond that (causal world).  Yukteshwar said he was waiting on an astral planet after his death while being enlightened here for years, waiting to teach students, how to further liberate themselves even from astral existence to move on to causal realities.

This end-of-existence type of discussions truly disturb me in ways I cannot describe.

The psychological imprints that are placed on society can have a lasting and dramatic effect on the human psyche.  From the time we are children, we are told such and such a thing is “bad” while another thing is “good”.  Such semantic hypnosis is cast upon our race on a grand scale every day and few if any people seem to notice, much less than recover.  Sadly, this semantic labeling eventually gets directed at individual people.  We are taught to quantify people into neat little categories.  Everyone, it seems is busy labeling everyone else at all times of the day.  We are labeled almost from birth by people we don’t even know, who use the narrow reality tunnels of society’s semantic hypnosis that have been imprinted on their nervous systems to describe and quantify anyone or anything, requiring no thought on the matter.  Like it or not, we regard others and pass judgment upon them according to these imprinted programs in our minds.  This is the beginning of (among other things) senseless discrimination.  That person is overweight and gets labeled as fat.  That person is a stranger and gets labeled as an outsider and must be avoided.  That person is poor and is to be pitied or even despised.

All of this programmed senseless labeling always has a terrible effect on the individual on the receiving end of such mind-numbed stupidity.  Or does it?  What if the person being labeled has no idea of how he is perceived by society?  What then?

Case in point…

All throughout elementary school and middle school I was in the Free Lunch program.  There were three different lunch programs in our school system in those days.  You were either in the Full, Reduced, or Free categories.  As the names implied, Full meant you paid the full price for lunch, Reduced meant you got lunch at a discount, and those lucky few who were in the Free program ate for free.  I say “lucky” because that is exactly how I perceived it.  I felt lucky to eat for free.  Honest to God, I thought it meant I was such a special little boy, that the school would let me eat for free.  In all my years of eating for free, no one ever told me it was because my family was in a lower tax bracket.  But being so young back then I don’t know that I would have understood that anyway.  But if someone had told me I was from a poor family, I certainly would have understood the meaning of the word, but I would have totally disagreed with that assessment.

The whole time I was growing up, my parents, both very industrious and thrifty people, never told me we were poor, or that our family may have been just scraping by.  Looking back on it, I honestly don’t know if that is entirely true.  Again, that is part of my perception.  Part of me remembers that we always, and I mean always had food on the table.  That experience alone imprinted on my young mind that we had no money problems.

Conversely, I also remember wearing clothes that were hand-me-downs.  I mean I am 100% certain that the overwhelming majority of the clothes I wore back then once belonged to my oldest brother (a full 12 years my senior).  I still vividly remember how much I hated that time every few months when my mother would have me try on almost every single piece of clothes I had, as well as the other “new” ones, to see what fit me.  It seems I never had new clothes except for shoes.  I guess my brothers wore out their old pairs long before my little feet would ever fit them.

These experiences imprinted on my mind that maybe we really were scraping by.  I have never talked to my parents about this, so I really don’t know for sure.  But being as I was raised in a catholic family with at least four other siblings living in the house at any one time, it is a fair guess that money was tight.  But to a mind still in the single digit years, what did I know?  All I knew was I had new food every six hours and “new-old” clothes every six months.  I may have well as been living in a royal palace because no one ever mentioned the word “poor” where I came from.

In Cajun country, people work hard and play hard, usually with more emphasis on the work aspect.  If you are working, you are earning money.  And if you earned little, then you were careful about what you spent, and were thrifty and frugal.  Necessity demanded it.  Pride and a strong work ethic permeate the land in which I was raised.  Many years ago, the Cajun people had an opportunity decide by vote whether or not we wanted to be granted official minority status, meaning we would qualify for all sorts of government assistance as any other minority.  We flatly voted “no”.  This is the environment I grew up in, and the imprints still are with me to this day.

When I was in school, and was eating for free, I literally thought it was because I was just a special kid.  Not special in the sense that I had special educational needs (I was a straight A student).  I mean special in the truest sense of the word.  I thought I was privileged and therefore allowed to eat for free while all my other paying classmates were suffering because they had to shell out a few coins a day to stuff their face.  Instead of someone telling me I was poor and making me feel like crap, I looked at my paying classmates and felt sorry for them. As a result of no one labeling me as poor (at least to my face) I never developed any neurosis about my family’s financial status.

The ordinary human psyche being what it is, my experience may be one of the few times in history when someone who might be otherwise be labeled as “poor” was overjoyed to not be “rich”.  Historically speaking, only saints, shamans, and yogis ever attain such a frame of mind, such a reality tunnel.  And that only occurs after years of spiritual searching and meditation.

This is an example of what happens when a human being is raised with an absence of any labeling in regards to what makes them different from others.  With such an absence of judgment, neurosis will naturally fail to manifest.

Here’s another analogy for you.  You may never look at another thunderstorm the same way again after reading this.  In this essay, I compare the similarities of a thunderstorm and sex, using as explanatory terms the ancient philosophical manner of understanding the natural world juxtaposed against our modern scientific understanding of nature.  So consider yourself warned.

For the sake of comprehension, when I mention the ‘electric’ or ‘magnetic’ fluid, I am referring the ancient philosophical principles or forces of expansion and contraction.  Think of it as a rarified way of describing the universal forces of heat and cold, if you will, which are really just opposite poles of the same thing.

Let us begin.

The sun’s rays warm the atmosphere thru the action of the electric fluid (heat).  Water vapor is released into the atmosphere as humidity, which becomes hot and subsequently rises into the sky.  The vapor rises and bonds onto dust in the air and when this dirty vapor elevates to a height with a low enough barometric (air) pressure, it becomes visible as a cloud, which is a just collection of warm vapor, or a collection of electric fluid held in suspension in a vaporous medium called humidity.  With more solar heating, the cloud grows in size, building up more electrical potential, or heat energy.

As the cloud grows, it has nowhere to go but out and up, building potential energy, and rising ever closer to a height where this mass of humidity first begins to interact with the cold air in the regions of the upper atmosphere, which represents the magnetic fluid (cold).

And there, high in the atmosphere, begins to occur the ancient philosophical, or Hermetic, sexual reaction between the polar opposites of the warm expanding moist cloud and the cold contracting air in the upper atmosphere, demonstrating the ancient Hermetic Axiom (Law) of Gender/Sex.

As the cloud grows further in size and power, it causes more interaction with the colder upper regions of the atmosphere.  Thanks to the Axiom of Polarity, which states that everything manifested contains within itself its own opposite pole.  This provides a natural polar channel to allow for interaction between the upper cold region of the cloud and the lower warm region.  The cloud is now literally a massive atmospheric expression of polarity.  Scientifically speaking, this a called a cumulonimbus cloud, the type responsible for thunderstorms.

Eventually, when the potential energies between the cold and warm sections of the cloud are at their highest, a reaction occurs high in the atmosphere at the uppermost levels of the cloud, in which a blast of cold air rushes down the center of the massive cloud formation (remember the polar channel?).  This cold air blast is felt on the ground by observers as a sudden chilly gust of wind that appears “from nowhere” while standing beneath a cumulonimbus cloud about ready to “burst”.  In fact the gush of air is called a microburst.  It rushes down the cloud and then out in all directions once it hits the ground below.

This downward draft is very sudden and powerful.  The microburst has been responsible for crashes of large passenger jets that are flying low to the ground underneath a brewing thunderstorm.  These crashes usually take place near an airport, as that is the only time such a large jet is so close to the ground.  The burst of air literally pushes the plane right down into the ground, regardless of whether the plane is trying to climb into the sky.

Back to the discussion.  Essentially, what we have is a manifestation of the Sexual/Gender principle, which has caused the cloud’s cold top and warm bottom to begin exchanging polarities.  As bizarre as it sounds, the cloud formation is beginning to experience an orgasm.

In the human sex act, as understood by the ancient principles, it is said that as the energy potential increases between the lovers, by the law of Polarity, an energy channel opens up within the lovers, and the exchange of energy causes the male to become like the female and the female to become like the male, each manifesting the qualities of its opposite within each other at the moment of orgasm.  The same is occurring in the cloud.

After this blast of cold air rushes thru the cloud (as though the cloud had a spine or Shushumna Nadi channel as it is called in Yoga), the cloud does 2 things at the same time.  Since it is experiencing orgasm, it will behave as such.  The cloud begins to manifest rain and lightning.

The cold air that rushed thru the center of the cloud causes the massive amount of water vapor to collect and condense together to form bigger and bigger droplets of water which will begin to fall due to gravity’s pull once the drop is massive enough to be affected by the earth’s pull.

While the rain is getting ready to fall, lightning strikes the ground (and Sprites, a recently discovered phenomenon, shoot out of the top of the cloud).  These energy bursts are the result of the cloud experiencing its hermetically induced orgasm, just as humans experience huge rushes of energy at the moment of orgasm, as though energy is flowing thru each participant.

Just as an orgasm reaches a certain level of intensity and lasts for a certain amount of time according to how much energy was involved in creating it, so it is with the thunderstorm.  The more energy involved in creating the cloud, the longer will the rain and lightning last.  The really large thunderstorms, called Supercells, can just be viewed as extremely intense atmospheric sex resulting in huge atmospheric orgasms, or as we playfully call it with humans, the “Big O”.

Analogy-wise, the rain can be seen as a charged alchemical elixir created by the sexual interaction of the combined electromagnetic fluids of the cloud, a physical manifestation of purified water that contains the subtle charge of the combined electromagnetism of the male and female sexual fluids of the cloud.  What we have here is akin to a Tantric sexual ritual on a grand atmospheric scale.

Furthermore, with every lightning strike, ozone is created.  Ozone has remarkable qualities.  It purifies the air it touches, cleaning the atmosphere, even creating negative ions, which are beneficial to human health and nature in general.  This can be seen as an atmospheric manifestation of the relaxed feeling and health-generating effects one gets after sex.

After the atmospheric orgasm is over, the lightning strikes cease and the rain diminishes.  All is calm and at peace.  Nature is refreshed and reinvigorated from the sexual intercourse of the cloud, enjoying the health and life generating effects of the rain and the lightning-created ozone.

Interesting huh?  I’ll bet you will never look at a thunderstorm the same way again.  And I wonder if you will ever play in the rain again…

I told you—you were warned.

The ancient teachings state that an enlightened man should be negative to god, positive to everything else.  Stated another way, it means that he should receive from god and then give to everything and everyone else from within himself.  According to the oldest teachings, this is the only proper action of an enlightened man, the only way to be.  It is this state of being on his part that attracts by polarity all other beings who desire to receive what he has to give.  Also, those who desire to find god within themselves especially attracted to the radiations coming from the enlightened man.

In an enlightened man, this attractive power is an automatic process.  He is constantly giving off positive radiations.  He is like a lighthouse, always giving forth his light, attracting all who seek the light unto himself.  An enlightened soul is always beaming forth divine light, which is recognizable only by those other souls who desire to have that light within themselves, because it is they and they alone who recognize divine light for what it is.  To all others, the enlightened man appears like a charlatan or trickster.  In this way, Nature hides her secrets from those unworthy enough to recognize it.

The process is also similar to a divine farmer who is sowing seeds of energy and divine radiation.  The more he gives of himself, like a giant fruit tree, the more highly regarded he is.  The more he serves in this way, the more divinity he manifests, the more selfless he is, the more people will praise him, although the goal of the enlightened is not to receive accolades.

From a hermetic point of view, all reciprocal action of the electric and magnetic fluids is the action of Love.  All actions that take place in the world of form, the physical world are really just the result of love.  God is love is constant action and interaction.  The only real love that is absolutely divine and does not require a requital from something else is a love that stems from the thing-no-thing called akasha, which is felt in meditation as a feeling of pulling out from the center, which indicates to the spiritual aspirant the direction all his actions should take—sending out instead of trying to attract to oneself from the world of form.  Again, this is a natural and automatic process of enlightened people.  This is also perfectly attainable for the ordinary person.

One way to begin doing this is to just BE oneself, to do what comes naturally, to do what one is best suited for, to be as you are, be what you are, which is a part of god living in a soul, living in a physical body, existing in the world of form, also called the physical world.  Just remember that the real source of all things is THE Source, or God.  It is found inside oneself.  All things come from within.

Even when things or experiences seem to appear outside of oneself, one should not be fooled into thinking that the thing seemingly coming from “out there” has its origin from “out there”.  Nothing could be more false.  Everything that comes into existence has its origin from the Source, which is invisible.  Funny how stage magicians are known for seemingly making things appear as if from nowhere, because that is exactly how human beings draw experiences to themselves, by appealing to the Source from within themselves to create an experience or draw to oneself a thing which has its origin from an invisible Source.

To constantly try to get what you need by ripping it from out of the physical world, or coaxing it from “out there” to “come here” is to operate in the wrong direction, spiritually speaking.  This is the way of selfishness, of constantly trying to attract to oneself what one wants and desires.

The proper way to live is to appeal to the Source found within for all you need.  If this is done, all that you need and ask for will appear as if by a miracle “out there” without you having to try to make it happen from the reverse direction.

Billions of humans on this earth right now think that the only way to live is to lie, cheat, and steal everything they want straight from the physical world with no regard as to where it really comes from, or if someone else needs that thing more then they do at that particular moment in time.  Everyone is trying to get what they want by ripping it out of the physical world, totally oblivious to the fact that there is an easier way, not to mention a more divine way of getting what you need for your life.

Since few people ever see how the divine process works, most simply keep doing the same thing over and over, staying right where they are, and getting no more out of life than what they are used to at the current moment.  This explains the tremendous inequity we see everywhere we look.  It is reflected in the old statement, “The rich get richer, and the poor get poorer.”  Those who learn the best ways to selfishly get what they want from the 3d world get adept at it and the result is worldly success.  Those who never learn such techniques usually stay at their current level of success or failure.

To live this way, in reverse divine direction, is to constantly live by one’s wits, always scheming to get what one desires.  It is the way of the insane, the restless, the unhappy and miserable people of the world.  It is a hopeless cycle from which there is no escape because it reflects the inner psychosis of the individual who truly believes that what is “out there” is the only reality.  If this belief never changes, neither does the inner torment felt by the individual.  They go round and round endlessly, never truly knowing their mistakes are causing their own hell, and they stay right where they are—in hell.  Hell is not a place to go to after death, it is a place one lives in here and now.  Selfishness is hell.  Vanity in the soul is the evil that amplifies all evil.

The answer to this eternal dilemma is simple.  Switch polarity.

If one wants to end such a hellish cycle of never-ending self-caused torment and despair, one must change the inner polarity from what one can get from “out there”, to what can one contribute from “in here” to “out there”.

This is the way of selflessness, the way of the adepts, the enlightened, the true human beings of the earth.

The way to stop being selfish and be more selfless is really not so profound as one might think.  The way is easily explained this way.  Stop thinking of yourself!  Think of others instead.  It harkens back to the old Golden Rule, doesn’t it?  Do for others what you would have them do for you.

Of course the first question to arise from desiring to follow the Golden Rule is likely to be…what should I do for others in the first place? This is not difficult to answer.  You need not look to anyone else but yourself for the answer.

Simply begin by adopting a basic suggestion based on the perspective I mentioned above; to look “out there” and ask how can I best contribute to improve what I see.   Just look within and see where your best abilities lie, and use them.  See where your inspiration lies and follow it.  Look within and see what activity excites you and just do it.  But do not make the mistake of thinking that this means just doing whatever the hell once chooses, irregardless of the consequences.  Remember to keep in mind that you are to do something that is of use and assistance “out there” and not to attract attention or reward to yourself.

This can certainly be a tricky thing to accomplish.  It is not in the Ego’s best interest to spend its energy doing things that will not benefit itself.  This incredibly strong tendency must be fought with all of one’s strength and cunning.

If you can discover an activity that most excites you and offers help and assistance to others with no regard for yourself, then you are doing the right thing for you.  In other words we call this, doing what you are meant to do.

This action of doing what you are meant to do is called doing your duty, or as it is sometimes referred to in eastern terminology, dharma.

And the action of doing your dharma is called karma yoga.  Karma is translated as “action”.  Yoga means “union”.  When you are doing what you are meant to do, you are doing your dharma which is a union to the action you are meant to do, which is Karma Yoga.  Explained another way, it is the work that comes naturally to you in this life, the work that you don’t mind doing for little monetary reward, or none.  Doing what you love.

Doing your dharma or what you love goes a long way in offering liberation from the cycle of reincarnation into the 3d physical world, which according to yoga philosophy is the goal of every yogi, to earn release from this physical world.  To reverse one’s polarity means perhaps more than anything, to not be attached in any way to the 3d world we live in.  To be attached in any way assures one will be reincarnated so as to re-experience what one loves to experience by way of attachment to something in the 3d physical reality, which is anything but real.  Do you see the endless cycle?

Reversing polarity is the fastest way to end the cycle of hell one normally experiences by trying to lie, cheat and steal from “out there”. Reversing polarity to selflessness is the way of divine fulfillment and liberation.  It is the way of bringing Heaven down to Earth in that you are busy doing a thing which is changing the 3d world in a way that was impossible by trying to rip something out of it thru selfishness.

Reversing polarity is doing one’s True Will, doing exactly what God wants you to do with your life.  When one does what God wants for us, happiness follows.  Life is a joy because you are busy doing your dharma, what comes naturally.  The thought of trying to attract to oneself something from the 3d world becomes laughable because you know that truthfully, the spirit of God that lives inside of you is the true source of everything you need.

Reversing polarity is the way of Divine Liberation from existence here in 3d reality (which is truly only a virtual reality).

The way of selfishness leads to death and rebirth, again and again, endlessly.

The way of selflessness leads to true life, and liberation from the endless cycle.

Isn’t it time to change?  Isn’t it time to get out of “here”?

Do you really want to hang around here forever?

“The world is a shit-hole, fully of shitty little scumbags who are scared shitless.”—from the film. “Armed And Dangerous”.

Generally speaking, there is no such thing as consensus in the world today.  There does not seem to exist one singular agreement on any one thing in existence.  Everyone has their own opinion about everything, and it seems no one can agree on a single damned thing.  Look around you.  What do you see?  Discord of the mind in everything we think.  Discord of the emotions in everything we feel.  Discord of actions in everything we do.  It seems the only thing we can agree upon is that there is generalized disagreement and confusion everywhere, bringing a general lack of misery and despair.  And no one seems to have any answers, to know what to do.

Sanity seems the exception, not the rule.  But why?  Why can’t human beings generally agree on anything, at the very least on a subject or idea which could be to the betterment of us all?  Why are we unable to bring our opinions to a sort of generalized consensus, even in matters of simple humane behavior that can create a better planet for all?

It seems an oversimplification to answer that question by simply saying that everyone just sees things differently.  But that is precisely the case.  Everyone does indeed see things differently.  But the sad hidden truth is this—everyone has no idea what they are really seeing to begin with.  (well, not everyone, but I will get to that later)

Said another way, everyone abstracts their own reality.  Reality is what you think it is—literally what you abstract.  Said yet another way, if you think it is this, then it is.  And that is correct, and yet also wrong.  Our inability to ‘see’ reality for what it really is has been the cause of all of our problems since the beginning of human history.

Our abstractions of what we ‘think’ reality is, are nothing but programs of thought and patterns of thinking that are subtly hidden within the nervous system and the brain.  Our abstractions are not what reality really is, but rather is an interpretation of reality and it is based upon what our neural pathways and synaptic connections tell us reality is—and that is simply not correct.  Only when you completely stop trying to interpret a thing can its nature truly reveal itself to you.  Only then can you sense reality for what it really is.  But this requires some effort at changing the patterns of thought within the brain and nervous system.  And that effort requires a proven technique.  That technique is meditation.

Meditation is a key ingredient to halting the abstraction of meaning from what we call reality.  In meditation, one holds the mind on a single thought, or even on nothing at all, focusing all the attention to the point of attaining a state where the mind is singularly trained on the chosen object of meditation.

If you meditate to the point of samadhi, then such an event can occur.  In samadhi, you and the object of focus will merge and it will tell you all about itself thru intuition born of meditation, an inner knowing.  To attain samadhi is to reach enlightenment, nirvana, or bliss, as it is known by many names.  It is the action of not forcing an interpretation on a thing or event.  It is the action of no-action, being without being.  It is the experience of the Enlightened Divine Mind.

Sound difficult?  Sure it is, as few ever even attempt such a thing.  But Impossible?  Of course not.  Others in recorded history have done it.  We call them saints, yogis, magicians, shamans, adepts, initiates, etc., (what is in a name really?)  Nevertheless, many have attained to this, the most supreme state of the human being.  Some have even attempted to describe such a state of mind in order to encourage the rest of us unenlightened mortals to do the same thing they have done.  Woefully few ever listen.

Becoming enlightened seems (and this is just one interpretation) to be a process of removing harmful and selfish subconscious programmed behavior from our reality tunnels and replacing them with positive, harmless, beneficial and selfless programs.

Enlightenment can also be seen as a process of becoming more Conscious and less Unconscious.  The more unconscious we are the more we REACT to every single stimulus that comes our way thru our senses.  Conversely, the more conscious we are, the more we THINK, and then choose to act or not upon whatever stimulus has come our way.

These qualities of thinking and choosing to act or not, as opposed to simply reacting are at odds with each other.  The more we think, and think clearly, the more conscious we become.  The more we stop, think, analyze and choose our actions even if it means not acting at all, the more conscious we become, the less robotic we become, the less enslaved we are to our unconscious selves, the less suffering we endure at the hands of our own unawareness and ignorance.  We must think, learn how to think for ourselves, and think correctly.  We must think, period!

After we eliminate the harmful programs in our unconscious, we must replace them with a minimum of consciously created, maintained and controlled programs that are beneficial to us.  These favorable programs allow the unconscious to function in a new way, allowing us to not have to think about being and living in a way that is divine, such as being unselfish, harmless, and kind—it becomes automatic.

This is the enlightened behavior of saints, adepts, etc.  They are fully programmed to function as realized, individualized-yet-connected, parts of God within the Matrix created by God.

This is done by work, plain and simple.  The work must take place in the mind, the emotional self, and the body.  All must be trained to behave automatically, as it were, as the divine beings that we are.  The more we work at it, the easier it becomes in time.  I really don’t see what is so hard about that.  The tiniest application of effort every day can bring vast changes to our perception of reality, therefore our world, and leads to a better life.

The answer to the world’s miseries and problems lies not so much the total cessation of thought, which is a goal of the yogis, but at the very least in the cessation of interpretations and judgments upon every single little thing in our lives.  If humanity can simply stop applying labels and interpretations to everything and everyone, then the world would be a much happier place.  If we are not busy labeling everything, we can focus on what is really important.

Lately, my mind has been rolling around with the idea of the future, mostly because some friends and I have been getting information thru dreams, visions, and intuition concerning the future. I hardly know what to make of the info, since not all of it seems to jibe with itself, but then again maybe it does?

I sense an alchemical process going on in the world today. Every human being is literally being cooked from the inside out. The process of alchemy defined in modern terms is simply put this way…the raising of vibrations. Imagine a thing’s vibratory signature being perfected to the point of being vibration-less vibration that gives life and death all at the same time.

I wonder if our collective human destiny is absolutely set, as in the very end of time we shall all return from whence we came, which is from God, who created everything out of itself, and is constantly re-creating itself, as in an alchemical process which is ever ongoing until everything that has been created is raised back up to the highest vibratory source from which it came, called Akasha, the vibration-less vibration, the no-thing thing that is the ultimate vibration-no-vibration standstill which is death, which is a transformation into something new, which is life, and hopefully more divine, according to the ego’s experience.

It seems that the experience of separateness of the ego inside of us is lessened every time we connect to God in meditation, which is internal alchemy, which means we raise our vibrations with meditation, until one day we can touch the Akasha principle in ourselves, which is a thing-no-thing from which all else springs. Akasha is like a thing-no-thing from which all is born and returns to at death only to emerge again in a higher vibration until it becomes absolute oneness with Akasha to the point that there is no more separation and no more egotistic need to experience the separateness that engenders the round and round aspect of what we call life which is a death-rebirth process until the ego realizes it is one with All and dissolves back into that from which it came, to experience no more experience, having manifested enough of the akashic experience needed to add its own experience to the whole of akasha, to which every other ego-being is a part of and adding unto along with you.

It does stop, when you add your experience to IT, when you see no more need to be here manifesting your own part to the whole. The ego-separate experience stops for everyone when at last they realize they are a part of the all and are one with all. Then the cycle stops. The ego is rejoined to the source to have no more separate experience again. Then existence is a oneness that really cannot be comprehended while in the physical realm of manifestation.

It stops. It really does. God goes on, but your experience is what stops. The suffering stops. The separateness stops. It does. Be at ease. Do your part perfectly in the meantime. It will stop. Enlightenment comes to all, even you.

It will stop for you soon. Very soon.
