... THE FALL

I broke... and with me, so did the ground of my Psyche.
With the ground of my Psyche breaking, so broke the construct, the
edifice of my reality.

I broke and fell backwards within myself as did the bits and pieces of
the edifice of my reality.
Panicking, I tried to grasp at the ruins, the bits and pieces of my edifice.
But they only turned to dust and disappeared.

As I fell I saw the light of my reality dimming and then it was gone.
I was falling in the abyss!
Darkness all around me.
Despair, fear, struggle!
Time was lost.

... TURN AROUND

Time was lost, I gave up the despair, let go of the fear, and stopped
the struggle.
I was still falling.
Realized: where am I falling to?
Turned around to look.
Realized I was never falling at all.
I was being pulled UP!
Up through the Planes of manifestation.
Up to the source.
Up to the divine essence.

... THE TOUCH

I was a man dying of thirst floating in a sea of fresh water.
Unlimited energy to regenerate.
I reached out and the divine reached in.
It was always there, right behind me.
I felt it permeate through every particle of my being and surrounded me.

... THE RETURN

I felt the permeation, the touch.
I was sent down through the Planes of manifestation.
The touch started to crystallize into Knowledge of its essence.
Down through the Planes.
The knowledge crystallize into understanding of the essence.
Down through the Planes.
The understanding crystallize into authority to direct the essence.
I was given the Scepter!

...but 'I' will not direct. 'I' will not control. 'I' have no use of
this power.

Its a mutual understanding!

As above so below, as within so without, as before so once again.

May you all realize that you too hold the Scepter!

Spirit behind forms...

Ideals to ideas to thoughts to words to action, form, events is the way of above to below.

Retrace actions, forms, events back to words inside your mind.

Turn the words back into thoughts.

Follow the thoughts to the ideas behind them.

Trace the ideas back to the Universal Ideals that spawned them.

In this way one may:

Order of the Temple part II

‎... There are the paths to the 'holy land', the Sacred Temple within you. These paths are rough and rugged roads. The closer one gets to the 'holy land', the more one is assaulted by the ones whose job is to divert, and to seduce by any means necessary. This, in the big scheme of things is to test the purity, will, and intent of the pilgrim upon the path. Do not be disheartened as there are ones who have taken on the mission to protect the pilgrims on the path to the 'holy land'. The end, never justifies the means!

Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed Nomini Tuo da gloriam~

Merging of the four worlds

We are Multilevel beings. At any given moment, which is all moments, we function on all levels of Reality. We interact and transform on all levels of Reality simultaneously. Sometimes we get hints at the different levels that we are already in but not fully conscious of... like visions of the astral, Ideals of the Mental world, and Noetic intuitions of the Noetic realms... even some rare moments of *Union*. What we do here, changes all the worlds.

With that said, I suppose the goal would be to become conscious in all the worlds simultaneously!

To become fully Awake!

Progression of Humanity

Everything... all 'good' or 'bad'... the ebb and flow of Life, and the whole world of duality is the cause to effect the *progression* of humanity into transformation from 'sensual man' to 'spiritual man'.

On Government

No matter what one's political views are, the closest form of government to the natural order of things is a Democratic and representative Republic.

Look at the body, with all its cells functioning in unity. When a person makes a decision, does s/he defer to the cells to vote in order to act?

The cells (people) seem to really function at the behest of the brain (Judicial branch) and the heart (Congress with its finger to the pulse of the people (cells)), leading to the personality (Executive branch) to make the decision to Act.

A Democratic Representative Republic does just that.

One may say that the cells never elected the brain, heart, and the personality... With further contemplation one might ask... didn't they?

The warnings are the same...

If the brain takes over, the law is followed too literally, and the cells follow a very legalistic, harsh, and sterile leader... a world of dogmatic science!

If the heart takes over, the emotions run amok and the cells follow a overly protective, unstable, and emotional leader... a world of dogmatic religion!

If the personality takes over, then the cells follow a selfish, egotistical, and maniacal leader... a world of despotism!

It is only with these three opposing forces functioning in balance with one another, that the cells, and therefore man, can both function in Unity and still be a Sovereign!

... and so a Democratic and representative Republic echoes the Natural Hierarchy!

As below, so above.

Too much Light may cause blindness

Truth (any ray of the Light or Divine Reason) needs to be supported by the individual or humanity that has risen to the degree of attainment called for by the truth, otherwise the truth will simply be engulfed by the darkness of ignorance.

Example... lets say that humanity is given the secret to perpetual motion, to unlimited power, but what will humanity, at this time in its advancement, do with it? Will it use it for the good of all, or will it simply use it to power more advanced killing machines until it destroys itself... once again!

We have to *earn* these truths, through advancement in ourselves, increased Reason, by being Honest, which manifests in Equality, Fairness and all the good things that we Idealize. We, as Humanity, need to earn this before more Light is given. This, is simply a Law... with increased power, comes the need for increased ability to direct it within the Law, or else we will destroy ourselves again.

Zeus didn't want Prometheus to give man fire, because maybe he knew man didn't deserve it at that time in his development, that he would use fire to cook and illuminate the night, but also use it to burn his neighbors doweling down!

The Illuminati... the real Illuminati's work, is in advancement of Humanity, after her/his own advancement. Imagine one giving a hand up to another while at the same time grabbing the hand of the one above... all the way up the celestial chain of the True Esoteric Hierarchy!

One for all and all for One.
