DON’T JUST STAND THERE

DON’T JUST STAND THERE

If I came to your house and made a mess out of your things, stole your possessions, raped your children and your wives, and threw you out of your home by force ... would it seem right to you? Would it seen humane? Would it seem natural or unnatural?

Looking at the condition of the world today, this sort of activity takes place every single day ... somewhere. If you're still convinced that some supernatural Deity is going to sweep down out of the sky and put and end to all this, then I suggest you rethink your belief system. 

For thousands of years millions of people have suffered, been tortured, killed, raped, murdered, and lived in misery. Where is this God that is going to fix everything? Go look in the mirror. You are it. WE are the ones who did this, and we are the ones who fix this. This is just plain old common sense fact. God/Creative Force provided and environment where we could thrive, not just survive. Everything had its place, and we keep messing it all up. 

If someone drops you off in the woods, and you just stand there and do nothing ... you will die. Well guess what, we're deep in the woods right now and if we don't do something ... if we all we do is stand here ... then we're going to die. And so is everyone else who stands with us. 

But if WE DO SOMETHING ... there's a good chance we can turn things around. The first thing that needs to happen, is the people must be told the Truth ALWAYS. All people must be empowered to fix their OWN lives, so that they can assist others in fixing theirs. We are ONE RACE, one consciousness. We're constructed of the same stuff that came from the same place of origin. We are ONE people. Connected NOT separate. There is NO other. 

Come to this realization, and reawaken from your slumber. We are sleepwalking and operating out of our unconscious mind. We need to raise our awareness, frequency; and vibration to a higher level. We need to AWAKEN. Seriously step out of our Zombie lifestyle and become conscious again. Our conscious Mind is only active about 1-5% of our day. We have become robots, and in some cases … zombies. We have created the Matrix. And everybody has a choice between the willingness to learn a potentially unsettling or life-changing Truth by taking the red pill, or remaining in contented ignorance with the blue pill. But, there is a Divine Matrix as well. 

If you want change ... WE have to be the ones to affect that change. God isn't going to do it, neither is any other Deity figure. Spirit cannot affect in a physical/material low level of vibration that we call matter. Only WE can do it … under Divine direction. And right now, we're watching our Ferrari roll down Lombard Street in San Francisco with no driver at the wheel. It's going to crash, burn, and be totaled.  

For ages, centuries, decades, millennia, we have waited for someone else to fix everything and it just keeps getting worse. What you are looking for ... is what is looking. It's YOU. And it's ME. And it's ALL OF US ... collectively as humanity that are going to stop the killing. Stop the stealing. Stop the abuse. Stop the rioting. Stop the wars, Stop the famine, Stop the homelessness. 

This New Year ... make a resolution to change the way you think and you will change you Life and the Life of those around you ... worldwide. A house is built one brick at a time. If you want to move a mountain, you move it ONE rock at a time. But we have to come together. Life a bee colony. Like an any colony. The more ants that join a colony, the more organized they get ... via nature. They turn into one giant brain and get the job done because they JUST KNOW what has to be done. So do we ... we just forgot. It's time to re-member. To know that we are all connected by the unconscious fiber of the Universe (YOUniverse). Everything is ONE. Everything, no exceptions.

BALANCING YOUR SCALES OF THOUGHT

BALANCING YOUR SCALES OF THOUGHT

Try and imagine a balancing scale. Not just for overall weight, but one that has to have something on two opposite sides. Kinda like the Scales of Justice image so familiar to us all. Got it?

Now, you know that in order to keep perfect balance, there must be the same amount of weight on one side as the other. If there are 100 quarters on side A, there must be 100 quarters on side B in order to keep the scale centered at zero thereby obtaining perfect balance and polarity. 

If you take away a quarter from one side, you have to replace it with something of equal weight. Of course, you could take a quarter off of both sides and maintain equal balance as well. But this article is about replacement. So let's say in order to balance the scales properly, they have to maintain a certain specified weight in totality. So, removing equal parts will not help you reach the goal specified.

Another quick example is that of a weightlifter. If you are going to lift up a set of barbells, there is always equal weight on both sides. You don't want to lift weights with 50 pounds on the left, and 150 on the right. Your right arm will end up being way bigger than your left ... thus ... not achieving physical balance concerning your muscle structure. It will also hurt your back and other body parts because of the imbalance of the weights.

One of the Universal Laws is balance and polarity. There can't be more on one side than the other. If you're balancing a pencil on your finger, there has to be the same amount of pencil on one side as the other. This is Law. The secret of the universe is that all odds are 50/50. The casinos know it, the banks know it, the sports team owners know it, and the successful gambler knows it. 

If you gamble, and you are at a casino, as long as you have deep enough pockets ... you will win … eventually. The problem is that most people can't afford to stay in play long enough for the rules of the universe to kick in. If you flip a coin 100,000 times ... at the end of the 100,000, it will have landed 50,000 times face up, and 50,000 times tails up. You just have to be able to commit to lasting through the 100,000 flips. Understand?

Now let's get back to balancing your thoughts. Thoughts become things. All thoughts will manifest into form. This is Universal Law. Cause and effect. As a man thinks, so he becomes. Sowing and reaping ... ancient Laws. If you plant a watermelon seed, you will harvest watermelons. If you plant weeds, you will harvest weeds. The seed (thought) contains what will be brought forth in the harvest. 

So knowing this valuable information ... guard your thoughts very carefully. Your thoughts will lead to your actions and your behaviour. If you should have a "bad" or "dark/negative" thought ... then just like the balancing scale ... replace it immediately with a different thought that is good and positive. It wouldn't hurt to actually say "cancel" out loud if a bad thought enters your mind. But you can't leave a void. You can't simply think "well I just won't think about that again." You have to negate it … by replacing it. You cant leave a hole, where something once occupied the space. Nature knows this. Try leaving a hole in a water puddle. Or poke a hole in the air.

Also very important ... keep all thoughts on a level of positive polarity. meaning this: Do not say "I will not have a bad day" because the universe and the default of nature is creative. It does not comprehend "don't. won't, can't, shouldn't, etc." If you say "I will NOT have a bad day" ... your subconscious mind and the creative aspect of universal consciousness can only hear and understand "BAD DAY." It cannot discern or comprehend the NOT. Same thing with anything else. Keep your affirmation, prayers, meditation, all in the range of positive polarity. Don't say "I won't drink today" because the Mind and the power of all that is creative can only understand "drink today" ... and so you shall. 

When you see a sign at the lake with a drawing of a man swimming with a red circle around it and a red line thru the circle ... it means NO SWIMMING. But in our thought system, there is no understanding of the red circle and red line. If you're NOT swimming, you are clearly do something else. Therefore, you cannot ... NOT swim. You cannot ... NOT park there. You cannot ... NOT loiter. Your Mind and the universe knows that if you are not swimming, parking, or loitering ... then you must be doing something else. You cannot ... NOT ... be doing something. Got it?

Now, back  to thought. The immutable Law of cause and effect states that for every effect, there must first be a cause. In order for us to effect in form and matter ... we must first have the thought. Thought always comes before manifestation. Even if you're going to walk into the kitchen, you must first have the thought to walk into the kitchen.

When you experience ANY negative polarity thoughts, immediately REPLACE them with something of a positive polarity. For example ... "this traffic scares me" VS. "I'll be fine in this traffic." or ... "I will not be scared in this traffic" VS. "at least the traffic is letting me slow down my pace a bit." Always ... always ... stay in the positive polarity position of thought and your Life (scales) will remain in balance. Your bad day, will soon be replaced by a great day. Know it. It is immutable LAW.

All things in this universe are energy and are as waves ... up and down. Always up and down. When you truly understand this, your Life experience will be immensely better and so will everyone else around you … wondering what you're doing that they aren't. Be  responsible. Be the change you want. And it will spread faster than word of free tickets for a reunion tour of your favourite band.

ANCIENT MYSTERIES REVEALED

ANCIENT MYSTERIES REVEALED

Religious and philosophical teachings have always been divided into two main categories - the esoteric (inner), and the exoteric (outer). Historically, the esoteric teachings have been kept in secret, given only to those who were deemed ready by Teachers who held the “keys to the kingdom of God.” This could take many years in the Mystery Schools of old. Many years before the Truth was revealed to those deemed worthy enough to protect it. 

Whereas a spiritually mature person recognizes that these “keys” are symbolic of revealed Truths (unveiled), someone less spiritually mature would picture in his or her Mind, actual keys made to fit an actual lock, albeit one not of this world. This is the difference between esoteric and exoteric students of religion and philosophy.

The esoteric student understands that religious icons and symbols represent principles and laws of nature, including both the seen and unseen realms. The exoteric student takes the symbols literally and historically - such as Moses actually parted the Red Sea; Jesus, the man, actually sits at the right hand of the Father, etc. 

While helpful to an unknowing, or non-inquisitive Mind, such literal interpretations are surface stories used to conceal the more sophisticated and abstract principles they were designed to portray in their parables, myth, allegory, and metaphors ... the deeper revelatory Truths. 

But, in this Internet age, when all knowledge is freely available to nearly everyone, the time has come to speak more openly of the deeper Truths of this Ancient Wisdom, thus preventing the possibility ... through misunderstanding, that the ideas themselves become merely symbols, hiding the very Truths of which they have always stood for.

Add to this the need to integrate the astounding growth in scientific knowledge into the body of thought called “The Ancient Mysteries.” Scientists and intuitive thinkers of all disciplines have brought new meaning to the old maxim, “Man, know thyself.” 

Neuroscience and Cognitive Science, along with the science of Linguistics and Quantum Physics, have revealed much about how the human organism works, especially the brain. And while this new knowledge (doubling itself nearly every few years) has enabled us to understand the concept of consciousness more than ever before, the sciences have yet to acknowledge the existence of the Universal Creative Mind of God/Source. And I stress ... yet. 

Mystics and sages throughout the millennia have understood more about the nature of Mind than present-day scientists, but they have not, for the most part, been able to articulate their knowledge using today’s language. 

Combined with science’s inbred prejudice against mysticism in general, which is the gap between science and religion that widens everyday, is bringing us closer and closer to an evolutionary catastrophe - the materialist view that human beings are machines whose software developed on its own through random, selective processes and not downloaded from a superior intelligence and Architect. 

As long as scientists believe that consciousness is a product of the brain and not the other way around, they will continue to seek ways to enhance this flawed mechanism by external means. Mystics, on the other hand, want to develop what is already there. The universal unconsciousness is the Field (the Matrix of Consciousness) that is the glue of the Universe. Tying everything together as One.

The Ancient Mysteries have always taught that the human organism is a vehicle for consciousness, and that the notion of a separate self is nothing more than an illusion. They did not preach against individuality, as is commonly believed today, but rather understood that it is through individual choice that spiritual progress can be made … individually and collectively. 

Every time we make one choice over another, whether based upon logic or intuition, we rewire our brain in a way that supports further choices along the same lines. Thus does humanity evolve, and involve. If through technology, that fundamental process is preempted and people begin to rely on artificial, implanted devices to enhance awareness, spiritual consciousness will devolve into greater and greater materialism, the belief that the physical world and its senses are all there is to the human experience.

The Ancient Mystery Teachings were given to the world as tools with which humanity can realize its own potential. These tools lie within the heart and Mind. But, while scientists tend towards the material understanding of Life, spiritually minded people tend toward the opposite pole, regarding science with as much suspicion as scientists regard mysticism. 

Science, by the very nature of the word ... is proof knowledge. This two-sided thinking is a dangerous error. It is only by unifying these two paths ... in an enlightened awareness ... that humanity can make the next leap in evolution and involution, bringing the best of the rational Mind and the intuition together into a collaborative whole (holy).

The greatest of the mystics from the dawn of human history up to our present day have achieved this unity of the inner and the outer within themselves. Hence, the mantra "as above, so below." Such enlightened people have brought humanity its greatest discoveries in science, philosophy, art, and social justice. 

It was the Egyptian principle of the One God (monotheism), brought forth and articulated by Moses (Akhenaten/Meses), that enabled science to envision a world governed by universal immutable Law and thereby open the door to unprecedented technological advancement. 

It was Paracelsus who intuitively unlocked the secrets of pharmacology, extending the lifespan of human beings by decades. And it was Pythagoras who, through his Wisdom and depth of vision, gave us the profound understanding of numbers and geometry that enabled us to achieve countless advances. In fact, Math has ultimately proven to be the one constant Truth. 

These people were mystics who, along with countless others, acted as the mediators between heaven and earth, providing humanity with priceless knowledge of the cosmos and the meaning of human Life. The discoveries of the ancient teachings of Thoth, Hermes, Enoch, and a myriad of Avatars, Hierophants, and Sages, have brought us out of the Dark Ages ... and into the Age of Aquarius. New information, based on ancient knowledge. Question everything ... it is the time of reason my friend.

THE ESOTERIC TRUE RAPTURE

THE ESOTERIC TRUE RAPTURE

The modern image of bodies being magically transported into heaven has been around since the mid 1700’s. This “rapture” was inspired by a vision from a young Scottish girl named Margaret McDonald and added to footnotes in the Scofield Bible, but the actual true concept and principle of this esoteric event has been around for several thousand years.

While modern interpretations of the rapture envision a collective experience happening worldwide at the same time, the reality is that the rapture is an individual experience and has been happening to people since long before the time when Jesus was to have walked the hills of the Galilee.

The actual word "rapture" comes from the Latin and means to be “caught-up,” an abduction of sorts, to be seized, especially by a mystical or spiritual experience. The subject fascinated Richard Maurice Bucke, head of the London Psychiatric Hospital in Ontario, Canada. Twenty years of research resulted in his classic book, Cosmic Consciousness, published in 1901 (currently still in print).

His description of this classic mystical experience, where one suddenly finds him, or herself, in the presence of God and all physical surroundings vanish, is totally consistent with the historical use of the term rapture. Remember also that the Bible was written in Hebrew and Greek, then translated into Latin, English, etc. Rapture is not a Hebrew or Greek word. It is strictly Latin in it’s etymology. 

In essence, Paul’s experience on the road the Damascus is just such an esoteric/inner experience, and is included in the book, Cosmic Consciousness. Many founders of religious organizations have had these mystical experiences, including the Buddha, Jesus, Mohammad, Saint Francis of Assisi, and Paramahansa Yogananda. Paul was a Gnostic, and knew nothing of an earthly, fleshly Christ named Jesus. Many of his original writings have been edited, added to, and counterfeited by the Roman Church and subsequent later translations to fit the Fundamental Christianity narrative. 

Many of our most popular writers and poets, such as Walt Whitman, Shakespeare, Emerson, and Yeats have also had these “rapture” experiences and have entered into a much higher level of understanding as a result of pursuing their spiritual insights in this manner.

That tradition continues today with the founder of the Gnostic Wisdom Foundation having had such a rapture experience and his pursuance of the spiritual Truths revealed, both within that state, and in successive spiritual experiences. This state of Cosmic Consciousness, known by the newer term of Christ Consciousness (the Divine Spark), is identical with the Buddhist concept of spiritual enlightenment.

While many instances of Christ Consciousness and enlightenment are associated with the classic mystical experience, far more people enter into the experience of Christ Consciousness through study and constant spiritual growth without the mystical experience. The gradual path is by far the more common method of enlightenment.

In many ways, it is like the Hollywood star that becomes an overnight success after 17 years of hard work. There is a great deal of learning, individual practice and dedication that goes into becoming enlightened and attaining this level of consciousness. Among the Ancient Mystery Schools, many years were invested through a process of initiation into the Inner Mysteries. 

Many people would see the process as one of sacrifice, but it is a matter of releasing the worthless, to make room for the valuable - sacrificing the illusion to acquire what is real - the Truth. 

The essence of the Christ Consciousness is the realization that oneness is the only reality, Truth is the only value, and love is the only power. The spark of all of these things is hidden within every human being. “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”

EMPATHY AND OTHERS

EMPATHY AND OTHERS 

I sometimes wonder as I look at people, have I become an empath because of all that I have been through, or was I always one and never took the time to tune in to the vibes of other people? I can see it in their faces, I can feel it in their aura ... the discontent, the pain, the emotional and physical burdens that they carry. I know it affects me by just being in their auric field. 

So many times on Social Media you'll find me posting in disbelief about disturbing events in our world. But it's only because I truly care. My eyes have been opened to so many Truths in recent years and I do my best to pass along anything I have discovered about how best to deal with negative events, when we all would rather have positive ones. 

The Truth is ... they are both One. They are two sides of a coin. We can't have one without the other. This offers us contrast, and the knowingness of differences between the two polarities … by experiencing them. If you're experiencing "bad" times right now, just know that "good" times are coming. They must. All is wave form energy and must have ups and downs ... like tides and the waves of an ocean. 

Learn to surf the waves, and balance on the beam. Stay right in the middle whenever it's possible. I have to work on this every day. Look to the left, look to the right, and look to the left again ... only then should we cross the road. As much as I have been through, and its been a lot, deep down inside I still know it will always get better, and it could always be worse. Remain in a state of thankfulness, forgiveness, and compassion for others. We are each an individual piece of the whole (holy) grand puzzle we call the Universe. The more we work together towards the common good, the better off we are. What we do to/for others, we are doing to ourselves.

REAL STORY OF ESOTERIC CHRISTIANITY

REAL STORY OF ESOTERIC CHRISTIANITY

After the "death" of Jesus, there arose many different splinter groups that claimed to follow his teachings. There was the continuation of Gnosticism, the apocryphal verses, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Nag Hammadi Library, and many other groups and texts, all of which PREDATE the highly structured, organized, and dogmatic Church of today, and many of which are rooted in esoteric and hidden Inner Mystery teachings regarding Christianity.

Many of these early esoteric Christian groups would now be considered heretical. Keep in mind most were considered heretical even back then. They drew influence from non-Christian philosophies like Neoplatonism, Hermeticism, and other ancient schools of thought that had existed long before "Christianity" was created. In fact, the influence of these philosophies such as Neoplatonism on Christianity is undeniable. 

Much as Christianity would hate to admit it, the teachings of the man from Galilee were not specifically new; he simply taught old lessons in a revolutionary new way. Whereas the Wisdom of the ancients was usually reserved for a select and privileged few, this Jesus - taught anyone who would listen. Though there were indeed a select few who were taught the deeper meaning behind Jesus' parables, allegories, and teachings.

The biggest influence that Neoplatonism (Plato) and Hermeticism (named for Hermes) had on Christianity was the idea of spiritual rebirth into a higher consciousness. This is the central message of most "religions," but it is much easier said than done to actually raise oneself from the slumber of ignorance to the awakened state of knowing (Gnosis). This requires dedication, time, and patience, attributes that the masses as a whole do not possess. It is because of this reality that "religion" has replaced "spirituality." Spirituality can be said to be more of an esoteric, personal connection to the Creator/Source, whereas religion is an exoteric, watered-down, "one size fits all" exoteric version of a higher reality. Among the ancients, initiates took many years to learn the Inner Mysteries from the great Mystery Schools in those times.  

Jesus' teachings (not "Christianity") were simply part of an ancient system of knowledge and Wisdom. When we study the history of the Bible, and the history of the Church system, it becomes clear to us that the present version of Christianity is a Roman patristic corruption of what Jesus is credited with having taught. It is a disappointment to the legacy and depth of these great teachings. Modern "Christianity" is a revised and edited form of a great system of ancient knowledge and Wisdom.

Jesus did not claim to be the one and only son of God. It may appear that way superficially, due to the editing of the Bible after the death of Jesus and the influence of the first ecumenical Council at Nicaea, but when one examines the teachings more closely, it becomes evident that Jesus' main lesson was that we are ALL the children of God. Go to the original Greek and you will read "A son of God" ... not "THE son of God." We all have the potential to become Christlike. We all have the Divinity of the Creator within.

"Christ" was originally a title that comes from the Greek word Christos, meaning "anointed" or "anointed one." Later on it was used specifically in reference to Jesus of Nazareth ... which should have been Jesus the Nazarene since the Nozrim (Nazarenes) were a Jewish sect and the place called Nazareth hadn't existed yet. 

Jesus spoke in esoteric parables to try to get his followers to understand the higher Truths of Life, but unfortunately, most did not comprehend the deep insight and meaning of the many parables which Jesus spoke. These were allegories and metaphors with deeper Truths hidden beneath the surface story. The literal story itself many times was insignificant and was designed to reveal a much deeper message ... For “those who had eyes to see and ears to hear.”

There were, however, a few individuals who did indeed understand the "hidden" aspects of the teachings. The Gnostic groups were among those who DID understand. "Gnostic" comes from the Greek word "gnosis," which means knowledge. The various Gnostic groups looked beyond the teachings of Jesus to gain a more comprehensive view of the ancient school of knowledge to which Jesus' teachings belonged. They realized that Jesus was a great teacher out of the many who had appeared ... or perhaps an anthropomorphic representative of the school of ancient thought. 

Unfortunately, the Gnostic groups and other early Christians were persecuted and declared heretics after the first Council at at Emperor Constantine's Council of Nicaea. In 325 AD, due to disputes over what "Christianity" should be, a religious council was assembled in Nicaea (present day Turkey) to try to settle the disputes and establish an "official" version of Christianity. Overseeing this council was the Roman Emperor Constantine, who ultimately decided what exactly this new "Universal" ("Catholic" in Greek) Church would include. 

At Nicaea, it was established that a man named Jesus was "of the same substance" as God. It was declared that Jesus was the Divine "son" of God and that mankind could only be saved through him. It was established that salvation could only be reached through one's belief in the Crucifixion and Resurrection. In other words, it was made a dogmatic law that one could only be “saved” if one believed that Jesus died for the sins of mankind. This is a completely false rendering of the original teachings, which taught that humanity could only be “saved” (awakened from ignorance and doing the right things) by and through humanity itself. Furthermore, subsequent councils further established the many dogmatic laws still followed today by most Christians. The Bible has been changed countless times. The Oldest known Bible in existence is the Sinai Bible (in the British Museum) dated to the 1100's. 500 years later came the King James. There are over 18,000 discrepancies in the two versions. Hardly inerrant. 

During his rule, Constantine saw the power of an organized state religion. The Roman Empire at that time was full of "Pagans," and Constantine knew that it would be beneficial to his empire to squash all forms of "Paganism" and adopt the new form of Christianity established at Nicaea. In about 397 AD, the Bible was canonized and made "official" as well. Countless verses were changed to fit the needs of the new Christian Church. Countless books were left out, most notably those that portrayed Jesus in a more human light and those that spoke of the real path to salvation -- knowingness. These apocryphal texts are still used in some denominations of Christianity, especially the older ones like the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and the Egyptian Coptic Church. The ancient scrolls found at Nag Hammadi in Egypt and the Dead Sea Scrolls found in Palestine contain many apocryphal chapters not found in the Catholic or Protestant Bibles of today, and they reveal philosophies that, if made available to the masses of Christians, would almost completely negate and refute the accepted dogmas of modern Christianity.

Unfortunately, these apocryphal doctrines will probably never be made entirely public. Tthe Dead Sea Scrolls and Nag Hammadi scrolls are indeed available, but they are not accepted as relevant to Christianity today, and the Church has done a great job hiding these texts from most of their followers. When one reads these apocryphal scriptures, it is evident why the Church has worked so hard to hide, or at least to refute them. They are empowering writings that can radically change a person within, and without. 

When a person understands that knowledge is the key to salvation, it then becomes difficult to control that person. They become, as I said above, empowered. When a person believes that the key to salvation is the belief in the Son of God dying for the "sins" of humanity, it is far easier to control that person. Why? Because that person then believes that he or she is inherently evil and a sinner and in need of salvation from his or her "sins." That person then believes that in order to be "saved," he or she must follow the dogmas of Christianity. Unfortunately, these dogmas are not Jesus' laws. These dogmas are the creations of men whose only interest was/is in power and control. In reality, the only real sin is ignorance. And the “Truth ... will make you free.”

Read these verses from the Gospel of Thomas, one of the apocryphal texts left out of the Bible:

"When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty."

“Jesus’ followers asked him, “When will the kingdom come?” He answered, “It will not come by watching for it. It will not be said, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘Look, there it is.’ Rather, the father’s kingdom is spread out upon the earth, and people do not see it.”

“The kingdom of Heaven is within you, and whosoever knoweth himself shall find it.”

Much has been hidden from us. The ancient Wisdom of previous civilizations freely shared in open forums. Only God/Source knows what will one day be discovered in the 66 miles of shelving underground in the Vatican Archives. 

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.”

Matthew 7:7

BIRTH IN REVERSE - THE CONNECTION OF ALL

BIRTH IN REVERSE THE CONNECTION OF ALL

Planting Seeds

In order for something to have a physical existence, there must have been a first seed. Naturally, the seed contains all the contents and essence of that which will manifest. For example, an apple seed contains not only the next tree, but an entire orchard. In order for the seed to bring forth Life, it must first be buried in the soil/Earth/Matter. Think about that for a moment. Before a seed can be born into Life, it must first be buried. 

Just as our spiritual Self has been buried here in this world, it comes forth into physical existence. Everything in this Universe has always been here and never leaves. Energy becomes matter, then becomes energy, etc. When you light a match, the interaction brings forth a flame into matter from the realm of the unseen. After the flame burns out, the energy returns back into the unseen realm of energy. On/off. 

ALL seeds of ALL things from this present moment back in time to the very point of origin are all of ONE source ... one substance. You are me, and I am you, and we are everyone else. Do not fall for the illusion that we are separate beings in a separate world. From one seed, comes the many. 

We say: "in the Universe," "in the world,” etc. This is because we are IN this and part of it and are whole with it. We are not outside of its existence in any way. The universe is one giant living organism and you and are the microcosm of the macrocosm. What we do to someone or something else, we do to ourselves. The golden rule gives us some insight into this ... "do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

The same goes for our thought seeds. All that we desire must be planted as a SEED. WE are the gardeners. For ANYTHING to grow it must be planted. How can we expect fruit from a tree that wasn't first planted as a seed? Our thoughts are seeds. Our actions are the manifestation of our thoughts. What we think we become. consider the Truths contained within these scriptures so long ago:

"As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he".

~Proverbs 23:7

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind …”~Romans 12:2

“Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.”

~Philippians 4:8

“As you have believed, so will it be done unto you.”

~Matthew 8:13

Worldwide, the “seeds” that we plant, will bring forth more of their kind. Like begets like. I ask all people everywhere to plants seeds of LOVE, PEACE, JOY, and ONENESS. This is the HUMAN RACE that must have UNITY … not any other man-made racial, political, and religious system that brings about SEPARATION and division. There is but one point of origin for all things and all peoples. We are ONE … not MANY.
