Jesus, Jacob, and the Eye of Horus

by 52 Comments

Eye of HorusThere are still far too many Christians in the world who are unaware of the esoteric significance of their Bible. This is because too many Christians believe the Bible was inspired—word for word— by an external deity who is totally separate from themselves and the rest of creation. Let me be clear. The Bible was inspired, but inspiration has always come from within the depths of extraordinary individuals.

Historically, these extraordinary individuals were from multiple cultures; the truths contained within the Bible do not belong solely to Jewish or Christian origins. Many Biblical truths were taught much earlier in Hindu, Buddhists, and even Egyptian scriptures and mythologies. [Read more…] about Jesus, Jacob, and the Eye of Horus

The Sistine Chapel Ceiling: The Secret in Plain Sight

by 54 Comments

Our Biblical mystics weren’t the only ones who veiled secret information beyond the literal interpretation of their work. It seems Michelangelo, perhaps the greatest artist of all time, did too. One of the most important of his paintings contains a hidden message that would rock the traditional Christian mindset; at least it would if it were widely publicized. This post will address that painting and delve a little more into the painter’s true message behind God and man. [Read more…] about The Sistine Chapel Ceiling: The Secret in Plain Sight

Meditation, God, and Heaven

by 13 Comments

MeditationI was very excited about an article on that appeared on Smithsonian.com this month, entitled, “Researches: World’s Happiest Man is a Tibetan Monk (and PhD Geneticist).”

The article is relevant to this blog because it addresses one of the most important and holiest acts I promote here: meditation.

Before we get into the meat of the article, I want to pose an important question to you: Could meditation truly be a path to God and heaven? Please keep this question simmering in the back of your mind as you read the information below. You may just have an ah-ha moment! [Read more…] about Meditation, God, and Heaven

Moses and the Exodus: Part Two

by 13 Comments

Today we are going to continue with Moses and the Exodus and what it really means for you and me. In our last post we left off where God had just given Moses the name, I AM THAT I AM, to present to the Israelites. An interesting scene ensues that is imbued with more esoteric wisdom that we absolutely cannot miss! This post will further investigate cosmic energy, the symbol of the serpent, the true meaning of an Israelite, and more on meditation.

More important details on the name I AM THAT AM

It is crucial for us to understand that when the name I AM was presented to Moses, the Biblical author was making a fundamental statement about the relationship between man and the universe. As you’ll see in a moment, God gives cosmic energy to Moses. [Read more…] about Moses and the Exodus: Part Two

An Esoteric Understanding of Moses and the Exodus

by 17 Comments

Moses and ExodusThe Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt is one of the more prominent stories of the Bible. Many of us have heard it a hundred times from parents, Sunday school teachers, and pastoral sermons. For me it is one of the greatest stories ever told, not because it literally happened, but because of the spiritual truth it conveys about being a sojourner on earth.

To teach that this story literally happened has been one of the greatest blunders of religion. The Book of Exodus is replete with so much revelation of the divine, but a literal view detracts from the true spiritual message. Contained in the Exodus is the complete story of redemption for all of humanity. It is the story of how to achieve the resurrected Christ within each of us. Even St. Paul attested to this when he stated that “…all our fathers…drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ” (1 Cor. 10:1-4).

What Happens When We Die?

by 9 Comments

What happens at death? Is there an afterlife? Are we still aware of anything? If so, what it’s like? These are the types of questions today’s post will delve into.

A general search across the internet will reveal all kinds of interesting answers, but what does the Bible say? I will admit the subject can get confusing when studying the scriptures; there seems to be contradictory answers throughout both the Old and New Testaments. One could easily argue many different viewpoints from many different verses. That’s why I think it’s important to lay some groundwork before we discuss any one Bible verse.

God, Male and Female, and the “One Flesh” of Conscious Creation

by 13 Comments

A few months ago I wrote a short article about how the story of Noah and the ark was about the ascension of consciousness rather than a literal narrative. More specifically, I mentioned how the ark represents the human mind itself. You can see read about here.

Someone who recently read that article asked, “Then what do the animals represent?” I have been meaning to do a follow-up on that blog post for some time explaining exactly that, and this person’s question has finally motivated me to get it done. There is also another reason I am going to include that information in today’s blog post: I want my readers to have a better understanding of God and how God relates to themselves, and since Noah’s ark is really about the mind, and God is the clear light of consciousness which can be experienced by the mind, I thought the topic could be really good for all my blog readers.

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.

The Bible, Jesus, and the Zodiac

by 25 Comments

Have you ever wondered if the Bible or Jesus had anything to do with astrology? As you’ll see, there are both direct and indirect correlations in the scriptures, and once you see the big picture, you’ll be astonished as to why modern Christianity misses this! This blog post will be the first in a three part series on the subject. It will also serve as an introduction. As of now, I plan on concluding the three-part series with an answer as to who Jesus was that may shock many people! And even though it may be shocking, I think you’ll agree the answer is pretty clear! [Read more…] about The Bible, Jesus, and the Zodiac

Reality Manifestation and the Bible

by 34 Comments

There are a lot of personal development websites out there talking about manifesting your own reality these days. Many of them contain a lot of great and interesting information. But over the years I have learned some things about reality manifestation that many of these websites leave out. This is where I believe the Bible can help fill in a gap for us. After a brief discussion of God and reality manifestation, we’ll look at some scriptures from the New Testament book of James to get better grip on all this.

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.

Why God Killed Achan, His Innocent Children, and His Animals

by 70 Comments

Have you ever read a story in the Bible that bothered you so bad you wanted to scream at God? I sure have. At least before I realized what most Bible lessons were all about. I will never forget reading the story of Achan’s sin in the Old Testament that is presented soon after the Battle of Jericho. I was about fourteen years old and I wasn’t the same afterwards.
