Ten Similarities between God and Consciousness

by 9 Comments

God and Consciousness BrahmanWhat if we could strip away the dogma and literal interpretation of the Bible to reveal an underlying, profound mystery about the concept of God and consciousness? How many would be so daring to believe they could be one in the same?

I have found that what we consider as the attributes of God are also the attributes of our own individual and collective consciousness, and the Bible shouts it!

If you’ve been raised in traditional Judeo-Christian teachings, it can seem a bit terrifying at first, but once digested, it brings great awe, humility, and inspiration for the human condition, and finally, great contentment that your life has more meaning than you could have ever imagined.

Fragmentation and Ascension

by 1 Comment

ConsciousnessWe all know what happens to water dropped from a significant height. It quickly starts to break up or fragment and the further it falls the more it fragments. That’s the way I understand what it is that we do when we, as Light/Consciousness/Being, descend/project downward from The Source and I believe the following to be, for the most part, true.

This fragmenting of Consciousness/Light occurs in a downward projection through the Dimensions. This is yet an even greater example of As Above, So Below. Here are the Dimensions mapped out according to the Planes of Existence and the human body:

11th Dimension – Christ Plane. Top of head. [Read more…] about Fragmentation and Ascension

The Fear of the Lord

by 16 Comments

sunriseWhat does it mean when the Bible admonishes us to fear the Lord? The Bible is filled with scriptures telling us to do this, so it behooves us to get to the bottom of its true meaning.

The Christian Church, even in all its diversifying beliefs and denominations, has progressed past the mentality of the Dark Ages, where fear was a powerful tool into subjugating the masses into following its rules so that one could attain salvation upon death. Now, it is commonly accepted that the Hebrew word for fear in so many scriptures carries the connotation of “reverence” and “respect” rather than the negative emotion that paralyzes the intellect and reforms the people into sheeple. While this progression is positive, it isn’t good enough. There is much more to understand as we move towards the grand finale of salvation, which sadly, is also grossly misunderstood by the majority of Christian thought.

Part IV: Logos: From the Raven to the Dove

the arkSection One: Fibonacci and the Alchemy of Noah

Mem and The Flood

Returning to 7 and 33, aside from connecting the Golden Section to Creation and Redemption, they are also related to 13 through the Hebrew alphabet itself: 7+33=40; 40=Mem, the 13th letter (recall that the 7th Fibonacci number is 13, and the sum of all 7 is 33). It’s symbolic correlate is water, and its esoteric meaning is death – which brings us to the Flood of Noah:

“For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.” – Genesis 7:4 [Read more…] about Part IV: Logos: From the Raven to the Dove

The Journey of Being

by 3 Comments

Five Platonic SolidsIn Merry Gnosis I talked of the Journey of the Soul as the big one and it is – for the soul. But there is a larger journey we are all undertaking, a much larger journey. We’ll call this the Journey of Being. Here we view this journey on a dimensional basis.

Sacred Geometry comes into play here. The term Sacred Geometry was used by the ancients to describe geometric patterns found throughout nature, such as the hexagonal cubes of the bees’ honeycomb, the interior design of the daisy and sunflower and much more. The 5 Platonic Solids are geometric patterns and represent the invisible matter which visible matter ( elements ) are built from. Lower conscious mind and the soul come from this invisible matter as well. So we’ll start at the bottom, zero point. [Read more…] about The Journey of Being

Neutralizing Generational Conditioning through Meditation

by 12 Comments

cosmic consciousness“Hindu” is said to be the oldest religion on the planet. As an avid student of the 5000 year old plus Bhagavad-Gita (Hindu Bible), let me quote the verse around which the entire Bhagavad-Gita is premised:

“The Vades’ concern are with the three gunas (forces of Nature). Be without the three gunas, O Arjuna, (you, me) freed from duality, ever firm in purity, independent of possessions, possessed of the Self.” : b.g. ch 2 v 45.

The three gunas represent the three forces of Nature: creation, maintenance, and dissolution of the material world, collectively termed, evolution. [Read more…] about Neutralizing Generational Conditioning through Meditation

The Pentagrammaton

by 9 Comments

pentagramThe word Pentagram we all know to be a star. It derives from the word Pentagrammaton. We also know penta means 5. But what about the “gram” part? In the word “tetragrammaton” the tetra portion is a combining form of 4 and tetragrammaton itself means 4 letters, YHWH, the Spirit, Mental, Astral and Physical Planes of existence. YHWH is Yahweh from the Spirit Plane downward and HWH ( trigrammaton ) is Jehovah from the Mental Plane downward, the “leader” of the lower conscious minds’ 7 powers or Elohim just as Zeus represents the same within the Demiurge for the Greeks and the Big Angel Yaldabaoth does for the Gnostics. But there’s that “gram” portion again. We know the word gram to be a measure of weight or volume, could that be the answer? [Read more…] about The Pentagrammaton

Merry Gnosis

by 11 Comments

journey of sunWhat kind of title is that? The answer to the title lies with the Sun. As I’m sure you have already guessed it has something to do with Christmas as well. From my last post I mentioned that the “mas” from Christmas is from the Egyptian “mes” which means birth so Christmas is the Christ Birth and “messiah” is the New Born god – us. From another post I mentioned that Gnosis is Enlightenment, Spiritual Transformation, and Christ Consciousness.  But how do all 3 (Sun, Christmas and Gnosis) fit together? One of the ways is through the Zodiac and is the story of the journey of our soul. There is a MP3 by Stephan Hoeller about this journey named “The Hymn of the Pearl” which I highly recommend. Can you guess what the Pearl is? In my view his version is very beautiful. There might be 1 or 2 things I don’t agree with but not everybody agrees with me either so just take what you want from any source and assemble the puzzle the best you can. That’s the whole point, have fun and explore. [Read more…] about Merry Gnosis

Fulfilling the Purpose of Life—Evolution through Happiness

by 12 Comments

meditation blissConsider the following:

1) How often is my entire physiology, small of back, inside thighs and eyes treated to stress-free non engagement, my mind to utter silence and respiratory system to minimal functioning?

2) How often do I enjoy a brain holiday: disengaged from psychological time and repetitive thought pattern work-outs?

3) How often does my mind enjoy a spell of inner sunshine out of the “fear-zone”?

4) What proportion of my happiness is derived naturally, other than from TV and mind stimulants? [Read more…] about Fulfilling the Purpose of Life—Evolution through Happiness

So what’s in a number?

by 4 Comments

numerologyWe all use numbers constantly, no question about that. But numbers meant so much more to the ancients. Why?

First let me explain who I’m talking about when I say “ancients”.  I want to thank B.K. for bringing this to my attention.  I didn’t answer this very well so I’ll try better here.  We can choose any group, the Chinese, Hindu/Buddhists, Persians, Egyptians, Sumerians, Chaldeans, Mays, Nordics, Druids, Greeks, Polynesians, you name it, they all came up with the same symbols, myths, allegories, fables etc., yet they were all separated by distance, time and interests.

Is There a Middle Ground?

by 20 Comments

Ring_of_Kerry-Scenic_view_southwestIf you’ve been reading my articles you will quickly see that I don’t talk about love, forgiveness, compassion, harmony, happiness, patience etc. Why? They are all very beautiful qualities. What I do go on and on (and on) about is truth and consciousness. The good qualities above and all the rest fall under the umbrella of consciousness. That’s why. How does one try and explain love, etc.? It must come from within. Who am I to tell another what love is? It could be self-sacrifice of some nature, but what is the motive behind that sacrifice? It could be caring but that doesn’t necessarily constitute love. [Read more…] about Is There a Middle Ground?

Hanging around, upside down

by 7 Comments

Astrological_signs_and_human_body_parts_14th_centuryHave you ever seen a tree growing downward? If you’re familiar with Kabbalism then you have. This is probably common knowledge but yes, it’s the Tree of Life. It grows downward from The Source toward matter with the brain as it’s’ roots and the spine as the tree. Of course the opposite of this is that same tree growing up from matter toward The Source with the brain now being the branches/leaves. But the leaves haven’t blossomed – yet.

This is the meaning of the Creation of Adam painting with Adam and God reaching out to one another. It is also the bands of the Zodiac. The outer band, called the Great Platonic Year, is our Solar Systems’ orbit with the Sirius Star System. [Read more…] about Hanging around, upside down

The Truth Will Set You Free

Eye's of Truth - Buddha's KiteWhy are Christians getting so sick?

During my life I have been around many people whom I would classify hardcore Christians. I began to notice something in common with all of them – namely, that the more intense their Christian convictions, the more they suffered from disease, illness and psychological problems. I didn’t really put the connection together – until now. I don’t profess to know everything or be completely right about everything. This is simply what I’ve found through my research.

The Bible will impart truth but only if interpreted correctly – esoterically, celestially and personally. It is almost all symbolism, metaphor, myth and allegory. I say celestially due to the Hermetic axiom of “As Above, So Below” That’s why the Bible states there will be lights in the heavens and THOSE LIGHTS WILL BE FOR SIGNS, but that is a discussion for another time.
