When Will You Have Bread and Wine With Melchizedek?

by 6 Comments

It can be said that there are two types of people in this world:

1)      The first type of person believes that life happens to them. And so it does. By default, those who wander about aimlessly will truly experience a sort of pointless and aimless existence in the chaos of the ego. They truly may believe they are operating out of free will, but most of their life is reacting to situations that they themselves manifest from an unfocused mind.

2)      The second type of person believes that they make their own life. And so they do. Those who are focused, entertain positive thoughts, and live in harmony with their conscious and subconscious self create abundant experiences.

Where am I going with all this? Enter Melchizedek, the main topic for today. [Read more…] about When Will You Have Bread and Wine With Melchizedek?

The Yoke of Christ: Realizing the “Light” and “Easy” Burden

by 10 Comments

Consciousness. Science can’t understand it. Religion places it in a box with a bearded old man in the sky. But there is the rare soul that learns to dive into it, to awaken to it. Since we are all different experiential expressions of the one and only consciousness (i.e., God), it behooves us to explore and experience the raw consciousness that we are. Today’s post will look at a famous saying from Jesus that I believe is an invitation to do just that. [Read more…] about The Yoke of Christ: Realizing the “Light” and “Easy” Burden

Jesus, the Zodiac, and Higher Consciousness

by 22 Comments

In my last blog article I shared how Jesus is a personification of the sun. In this blog post I will show how Jesus’ life relates to the sun as it travels through the zodiac. As I have said before, my conclusion is not that the story of Christ is just another sun god myth. The story of Christ in the heavens provides us with the knowledge we need in order to understand our paths to higher consciousness. In other words, the story of Christ is meant to be our story, and if you read this blog post with an open mind I think you’ll most likely agree.

A Conversation With God

by 21 Comments

Today I am going to depart from the usual subject matter of this blog. Instead of uncovering a hidden meaning beneath the literal text of the Bible, I am going to share one of the most important conversations I have ever had with God. I was both emboldened and humbled by God’s reply, and it is certainly part of the reason I “woke up” from the slumber that I now know was my own unconscious mind. I hope you enjoy… [Read more…] about A Conversation With God

An Esoteric Interpretation of Genesis Chapter 1

by 22 Comments

We should all be aware that the ultimate answer to the mystery of the universe probably isn’t available. I seriously doubt there is a definitive answer because a definitive answer is only a concept that exists in the conscious experience of matter where all things become concrete. What if I told you that ultimate reality is devoid of concreteness and cannot be limited to a definitive answer? Wouldn’t a definitive answer just be a limitation anyway? In this post I am going to show you how Genesis chapter 1, the very first book of the Bible, opens us to the possibility of something greater than a definitive answer.

Joshua, the Battle of Jericho, and Your Body/Mind Connection!

by 14 Comments

Many archeologists have tried to uncover the city of Jericho with less than impressive results. The famous city has been discussed in countless commentaries and Old Testament discussions, sermons, and Bible studies. But all of these discussions are useless if the true spiritual intent of the Biblical author of Joshua isn’t understood. Today we’re going to delve into this topic and learn some really cool spiritual insights from the famous story known as the Battle of Jericho. This story reveals what we should be doing to achieve an amazing body/mind connection that the West has been slow to comprehend through the Bible for many centuries.

Who was Lucifer?

by 31 Comments

Who was Lucifer? Many people think that Lucifer is the original name for Satan, or the devil, an evil being opposed to God. But this is just not true. In fact, Lucifer is not an external being, and the entire concept of Satan in the Western world is inaccurate. Lucifer, Satan, and the devil represent something much more important than an external celestial being that is the archenemy of God and mankind. This blog post will discuss what Lucifer and Satan really mean and how they relate to us. Since the Bible is a book that explains you, the holy temple, the esoteric truth about Lucifer can help you to realize more about your soul and purpose on this earth than any literal rendition of the scriptures about Satan ever could.

The Pillars of Jachin and Boaz, Kundalini, and the Shekinah

by 26 Comments

In the last blog post we discussed why Solomon’s Temple could not be literal; instead it was meant to represent the human mind. Today we are going to focus on two structures built with the temple to help you better understand what the Bible teaches about consciousness and reality. We will also discuss a little about kundalini and DNA. But most importantly, we are going to focus on what the Bible has to say about having the proper balance, both physically and spiritually, in order to manifest Christ consciousness within you.

Moses, the Bronze Serpent, and Bible Kundalini

by 89 Comments

Have you ever wondered why Moses had to “lift up” the bronze snake in the wilderness in order for the Israelites to be healed? This is perhaps one of the most puzzling scriptures in the entire Bible. Pastors and Bible study teachers alike have been stumped as to why it is there, and it seems that traditional Christianity has no proper explanation. Is there one? Yes, but the answer lies beyond the literal interpretation, and it contains a wonderful spiritual truth! [Read more…] about Moses, the Bronze Serpent, and Bible Kundalini

The Prodigal Son: An Esoteric Understanding of Ascension

by 19 Comments

Almost everyone knows the story of the Prodigal Son. Traditionally, this story has been used to illustrate the hopeless plight of man and his subsequent need for repentance and salvation. This exoteric (literal / outer) interpretation is comforting, but it pales in comparison with the scope and breadth of the esoteric (inner) interpretation. Let’s dissect the story to better understand your reason for being here, what you can look forward to, and the direction you need to take in order to arrive! And yes, all that wonderful information is packed in the simple yet brilliant parable of the Prodigal Son. [Read more…] about The Prodigal Son: An Esoteric Understanding of Ascension

Jonah, the Whale, and Higher Consciousness

by 20 Comments

For hundreds of years Sunday schools all over the country have taught children the Biblical story of Jonah and the whale. But the deeper meaning beyond the literal story takes us beyond a man who was swallowed by a big fish; in its esoteric sense, the story is about the human condition and the initiation process into Christ consciousness that we are all destined to go through. And while the literal viewpoint gives us the impression that Nineveh is being presented with an important opportunity, the real opportunity is for Jonah, and as you’ll see, Jonah experiences an initiation process and subsequent rebirth from his lower nature to his higher nature.

Jesus, 40 Days in the Desert, and the Ego

by 41 Comments

Today I have a special revelation for all my blog readers. In our last article, we discussed why the author of Hebrews encourages Christians to leave the doctrines of Christ (exoteric or outer teachings) and go on to maturity realizing the inner (esoteric) teachings of Christ. We also stated that when a Christian reaches this level of maturity, it is more important to realize what Jesus represents instead of focusing on who he was. Ultimately, the author of Hebrews wanted to teach his disciples a much more advanced set of teachings that were not anchored to the literal interpretation of the Biblical text. In today’s blog post I am going to focus on what Jesus should represent by going over the story of Jesus’ 40 days and nights in the desert.

Enoch: The Pinnacle of Man’s Earthly Sojourn

by 7 Comments

Today I am going to discuss a very mysterious man from Genesis: Enoch. His legacy is so mysterious that the institutionalized church decided other sources concerning him should not be part of the official Biblical canon. This was a big mistake because a lot of spiritual wisdom and knowledge was lost to the masses because of that decision. We can’t blame them though—not long after the 1st century the literal interpretation of the Bible became so engrained in church leadership, they labeled anything they didn’t understand as “evil.” This is still happening today. But as we’ll soon see, the tracks leading us back to some of this ancient wisdom weren’t covered completely; clues in the official cannon are still there for us to discover today!
