ایقاع و وزن داوری را

ایقاع و صفی الدین ارموی

محمد اسعد قریعة
ترجمه:سجاد خطابی
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) آنچه در این مقاله‌ مورد بحث قرار می‌گیرد نظریه صفی الدین‌ ارموی در مورد«ایقاع» در کتاب الرسالة الشرفیة فی النسب‌ التألیفیة است.
علم موسیقی به‌ دو بخش تقسیم‌ می‌گردد 1-علم‌ تألیف که کیفیت نغمات را از چندین جهت مورد بررسی قرار می‌دهد 2-علم ایقاع که به ساختار موجود بین زمان‌ سکوت‌های وارد شده و نقره‌ها و نغمه‌ها می‌پردازد.
در برابر علم تألیف که مورد توجه بسیاری از دانشمندان گذشته قرار گرفته است علم ایقاع آن‌چنان مورد توجه نبوده و تنها حجم کوچکی از تألیفات را دربرگرفته است و عملکرد نظریه‌پردازان برای ارائه صورتی‌ واضح از این علم رضایت‌بخش نیست.
دانشمندان در قرن 91 میلادی تحقیقات فراوانی پیرامون نظریه‌های‌ موسیقی قدیم ارائه کردند اما اهتمام آنها بیشتر در زمینه دانش تألیف بود و توجه شایانی به ایقاع نمی‌شد.ذکر این نکته لازم است که علم ایقاع به‌ تحقیقات خاص و بسیار دقیق نیاز دارد تا بتوان با استناد آن به نظریه‌ی‌ مطلوبی دست یافت که درعین‌حال از دوره‌های مختلف اسلامی نیز بهره‌ گرفته باشد.
ما در این مقاله‌ دو موضوع را مدنظر داریم:-بررسی‌ مهم‌ترین مفاهیم و عناصری که در خلال آن‌ نظریه‌ی ایقاع با توجه به‌ مصادر نظری قدیم شکل‌ می‌گیرد
-تحقیق و بررسی نظریه‌ شیخ صفی در جایگاه وسیع‌ که موضوع پایان‌نامه دکترای‌ نگارنده در دانشکده موسیقی‌ دانشگاه روح القدس لبنان بوده است.
ایقاع:1
در لغت‌نامه‌ی لسان العرب‌2در مورد معنای ایقاع این‌چنین آمده: باریدن باران به صورت پراکنده و اما معنی اصطلاحی آن هماهنگی صداها و آهنگ‌ها و ارتباط آن در خواندن و نواختن است.
در این قسمت با تعاریفی چند از نظریه‌پردازان قدیم در مورد ایقاع‌ آشنا می‌شویم:
فارابی(059 م):بیان نغمات در زمان‌های معین و مشخص‌3.
ابن سینا(7301 م):محاسبه زمان نقرات‌4.
ابن زیله(8401 م):تعریف ابن سینا را تکرار می‌کند5.
حسن بن احمد کاتب(قرن 11 میلادی):بخش بندی زمان لحن در
کتاب ماه هنر » شماره 77 (صفحه 27)
برابر نقرات.
نصیر الدین طوسی(7421 م):ساختار موجود بین زمان سکوت‌های‌ وارده شده در نقرات و نغمه‌ها6.
در این تعاریف فارابی مفهوم ایقاع را زمان‌های موجود بین نغمه‌ها می‌داند یا به تعبیری واضح‌تر معتقد به ایقاع داخلی لحن می‌باشد.اما ابن سینا و حسن کاتب بیشتر به ایقاع خارجی توجه می‌کنند،یعنی زمان‌ موجود بین ضربه‌ها که لحن به وسیله آن تجزیه و بخش می‌گردد.در برابر این آرا خواجه نصیر الدین طوسی‌7این دو وجه را در کنار هم قرار می‌دهد و به‌ زمان‌های موجود بین نقرات و نغمه‌ها اشاره می‌کند.
اما صفی الدین ایقاع را در ابتدای مقاله پنجم در رساله‌ی شرفیه‌ این‌گونه معرفی می‌کند:همه نقراتی که با زمانی معین و حالت و هیئتی‌ مخصوص،با ادواری مساوی،در کنار یکدیگر قرار می‌گیرند که فقط با طبع‌ سلیم می‌توان مساوی‌بودن ادوار را درک نمود.از این تعریف درمی‌یابیم‌ که صفی الدین به ذکر دو نکته بسنده کرده است:
1-مفهوم ایقاع خارجی کلام که به وسیله‌ی نقرات به‌وجود می‌آید
2-تساوی ادوار که فقط با طبع سلیم و یا حس ایقاعی صحیح قابل درک‌ است.
زمان معیار:
به معنای برابربودن اندازه زمان‌های وارده شده در نقرات است. صفی الدین زمان معیار را سه دسته می‌داند:
1-بطی 2-سریع 3-متوسط(که بین بطی و سریع قرار می‌گیرد)اما با کمی توجه درمی‌یابیم که این تعریف از دقت لازم برخوردار نیست چرا که‌ زمان سریع در برابر سرعت بالاتر از خود تبدیل به بطی می‌شود و همین‌طور زمان بطی در برابر سرعت پایین‌تر از خود به زمان سریع مبدّل می‌گردد. شیخ صفی زمان متوسط را به عنوان زمان معیار قرار می‌دهد و آن را به‌ پیمانه‌ای تشبیه می‌کند که زمان‌ها با آن اندازه‌گیری می‌شود و معتقد است‌ که هر دو زمان سریع و بطی دارای نواقصی است؛مثلا زمان سریع‌ غیرمحسوس است و زمان بطی ممکن است آنقدر ادامه پیدا کند بدون‌ اینکه خاتمه‌ای داشته باشد.
به‌نظر می‌رسد نواقصی که در مشخص‌کردن معیارهای اندازه‌گیری‌ اشیا وجود داشته ذهن دانشمندان را از گذشته تا به امروز به خود اختصاص داده است.مثلا در زمینه اندازه‌گیری طول اشیاء انسان از اجزای بدن خود استفاده می‌کرده مانند انگشت و وجب و بازو به عنوان‌ واحد اندازه‌گیری،یا در مورد مسافت‌های طولانی از روز به عنوان واحد اندازه‌گیری بهره می‌جسته است.به‌طور مثال گفته می‌شده این شهر تا فلان شهر سه روز است یعنی مسافتی که معمولا در سه روز طی می‌شود. البته عدم دقت در این واحدها کاملا واضح است.
در مورد معیار زمانی قاریان قرآن به راه‌حل مطلوبی دست یافتند و واحد اندازه‌گیری را طول حروف مد در هنگام خواندن قرآن‌کریم قرار دادند،یعنی زمانی که با حرکت بستن و رهاکردن انگشت سبابه طول‌ می‌کشد.از طرف دیگر ابن سینا و بعد از او ابن زیله مدت زمان شنیدن‌ حروف حسبی را به عنوان زمان معیار پیشنهاد می‌کنند8.
نقره(ضرب):کندی ضربات را به سه دسته تقسیم می‌کند:
الف)نقره اعتیادیه:که دارای دو شکل مختلف است
1-نقره منفرده:(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) 2-(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) ب)نقره ساکن
ج)نقره متحرک
برای روشن‌شدن موضوع،تعریف فارابی را در این قسمت می‌آوریم: اعراب نقره‌ای را که بعد از آن سکوت باشد نقره ساکن می‌نامند مثل تن(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) نقره‌ای را که بعد از آن بدون وقفه و حرکت دیگری قرار گیرد نقره متحرک‌ می‌نامند.
با توجه به تعاریف یادشده سؤالی در ذهن ما پدید می‌آید که چه فرقی‌ بین نقره ساکن و متحرک وجود دارد؟برای یافتن پاسخ بار دیگر به سراغ‌ تعریف فارابی می‌رویم.بیان نغمات در زمان‌های معین و نسبت‌های‌ مشخص.پس نقرات همان مجموع زمان‌هایی است که بین نغمه‌ها قرار می‌گیرد و در این حالت فرق در زمان نقره ساکن و متحرک نغمه‌ای است که‌ از آن به‌وجود می‌آید؛بنابراین شکل(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)نغمه خاص خود با زمان مشخص‌ و شکل(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)نغمه و زمان مشخص خود را ادا می‌کند.فارابی در کتاب خود شواهد زیادی را می‌آورد که بیان ما را به گونه‌ای تأیید می‌کند«بدایات‌ النغم التی تقع علی اطراف أزمنه(...)تحدّها فی المسامع النقرات»
با این وجود ایقاعات هشت گانه‌ای که کندی بیان می‌کند فقط از جانب‌ کمی مورد توجه است ولی از جانب نوعی مثمر ثمر نخواهد بود9.
اما نظریه‌ی بعد متعلق به فارابی است او می‌گوید:ضربات سه مرتبه‌ دارند:قوی،لینه،متوسط.او ضربه‌ی قویه را به تنوین در زبان عربی و ضربه متوسطه را به حرکت حرف و ضربه لینه را به اشمام‌01حرکت در حرف‌ و یا روم‌11حرکت تشبیه می‌کند.فارابی در ادامه بیان می‌کند که برخی از مردم نقره متوسطه را المسحة و لینه را غمزه می‌نامند اما خود او اصطلاحات عالمان علم نحو عربی را در این زمینه ترجیح می‌دهد.
ابن سینا که یکی از مهم‌ترین دانشمندان بعد از فارابی در علوم‌ نظری می‌باشد مقاله پنجم کتابش جوامع علم الموسیقی را به توضیح‌ ایقاع اختصاص می‌دهد،اما در طول این مقاله هیچ اشاره‌ای به انواع‌ نقرات نشده و وی فقط به توضیح جانب کمی ایقاعات بسنده کرده‌ است.
اما ابن زیله که در ابتدا انواع ایقاعات را براساس دو نظریه گذشته‌ (کندی،فارابی)توضیح می‌دهد و آن دو را ناقص و دور از حقیقت می‌داند می‌گوید:«متقدمین و متأخرین درباره‌ی ایقاع و انواعش تعاریف بسیاری‌ ارائه کرده‌اند اما در این راه مرتکب اشتباهات بسیار زیادی شده‌اند وبه‌ گمان من راه حق از باطل را تشخیص نداده‌اند و نوشته‌هایشان صحت‌ گفتار ما را تأیید می‌کند.»
و حال تقسیم‌بندی خود ابن زیله:
1-نقره شدیده که آن را مقطع‌21نامیده و با علامت ت مشدد نشان می‌دهد. 2-نقره ضعیفه که علامت آن را حرف ت قرار می‌دهد.
3-همچنین حرف«ه»را به عنوان علامت سکوت قرار می‌دهد که مقدار آن براساس زمان معیار سنجیده می‌شود.
در همین قرن(11 میلادی)کتاب کمال ادب الغنا به دست حسن بن‌
کتاب ماه هنر » شماره 77 (صفحه 28)
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) احمد کاتب به رشته تحریر درمی‌آید.او در باب 82 که مربوط به ایقاعات‌ می‌شود این‌گونه می‌گوید:نقرات سه نوع هستند:قویه(مشبعه).
متوسطه(مستحده)و لینه(غمزه که حرکت روم و اشمام بر روی آن صورت‌ می‌گیرد).هرچند مؤلف تفسیر کامل‌تری نسبت به فارابی ارائه می‌دهد اما تأیید او از تقیسم‌بندی فارابی بر ما پوشیده نیست.
در این چکیده که از محققان قبل از صفی الدین در مورد نقره بیان‌ داشتیم درمی‌یابیم که فارابی و ابن زبله و حسن کاتب نقرات را به دو یا سه‌ دسته تقسیم می‌کنند،اما کندی و ابن سینا به صورت جداگانه به طرح این‌ موضوع نپرداخته‌اند.
حال آشکار می‌شود که صفی الدین در گروه اول(که آن را قبلا ذکر کردیم)جای می‌گیرد،به ویژه که او کتاب فارابی را مطالعه کرده و از آن‌ مطالب زیادی در نوشته‌هایش نقل می‌کند.اما شیخ در رساله شرفیه و همچنین الادوار تقیسم‌بندی دیگری برای نقرات ارائه نکرده و به همین‌ دلیل ما از شناخت دقیق ایقاعات متداول در عصر او ناتوانیم
4-ایقاع موسیقی و ایقاع شعری
نظریه‌پردازان عرب در حین صحبت از ایقاع موسیقی بعضی‌ اصطلاحات خاص علم عروض‌31را به‌کار برده‌اند که این اصطلاحات دارای‌ مقطع‌های لفظی هستند که کلام از آنها ساخته می‌شود.خلیل بن احمد فراهیدی(متوفی بین 677 و 197 م)تفعیلاتی را که اوزان شعر عربی با آن‌ تقطیع و وزن می‌شود را این‌گونه بیان کرده است:
1-فعولن
2-فاعلن
3-مستفعلن
4-مفاعلین
5-متفاعلین
6-فاعلاتن
7-مفاعلتن
8-مفعولاتن
و این تفعیلات را بر سه نوع می‌داند و هرکدام را به دو قسمت مجزا تقسیم می‌نماید:
سبب-خفیف لم،کم نقره و سکون تن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) ثقیل:لم،تر نقره و نقره تن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) وتد-مجموع:طرب،عنب نقره و نقره و سکون تنن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) مفروق:قال،أمن نقره و سکون و نقره تان (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)
کتاب ماه هنر » شماره 77 (صفحه 29)
فاصله-صغری:سمکن 3 نقره و سکون تننن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) کبری:سألهم 4 نقره سکون تنننن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) و صفی الدین زمان بین نقرات اسباب ثقال را زمان(1)(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) تن تن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) و زمان بین بدایات اسباب خفاف را زمان(ب)(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) تن‌تن‌تن‌تن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) و زمان بین بدایات اوتاد را زمان(ج)(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) تنن‌تنن‌تنن‌تنن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) و زمان بدایات فواصل صغری را زمان(د)می‌نامد (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) تننن‌تننن‌تننن (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) هماهنگی زمان‌ها به این شیوه یادآور اصول یونانی در زمان‌بندی‌ ایقاعات است.به ویژه ساختار منسوب به ارسطو:
و او زمان(1)را زمان اول‌ (Chronos Protos)
و زمان(ب)را زمان دوم‌ (diaemos)
و زمان(ج)را زمان سوم‌ (trisemos)
و زمان(د)را زمان چهارم‌ (tetrasemos) می‌نامد
انواع ایقاعات:
ایقاعات یا ضروب از نقرات و سکوت‌ها تشکیل می‌گردد و هرکدام از آنها در یک دور برحسب تعداد زمان و یا چگونگی پراکندگی نقرات یا هر دو این عوامل باهم تفاوت دارند.
در نظر صفی الدین،فارابی،ابن سینا و ابن زیله ایقاع بر دو نوع است: 1-متصل(موصّل)2-مفصل(منفصل)
ایقاع متصل النقرات و الادوار:ایقاعی است که بین همه نقرات آن‌ زمان‌های مساوی و برابر برقرار دارد41.
ایقاع مفصل:ایقاعی که زمان بین همه نقرات آن پراکنده و نابرابر است و دور در این ایقاع از همه نقرات موجود در ایقاع کندتر است و این‌ زمان فاصله‌51نامیده می‌شود و حسن کاتب آن را شرطی برای همه ایقاعات‌ می‌داند.
لازم به توضیح است که برای این قانون چند استثناء وجود دارد:
1-نقره مجاز یک ضربه به جای فاصله در ایقاع قرار می‌گیرد و ضرباتی را که در دور وجود دارد به هم متصل می‌کند.
2-نقره اعتماد ضربه‌ای که به پایان دور دوم اضافه می‌شود و لحن‌ بر روی آن تکیه می‌کند61.
حسن کاتب ایقاعات را به دو شکل ساده و مرکب بیان می‌کند در شکل‌ بسیط کل ایقاعات هم‌جنس هستند و در شکل مرکب چند جنس مختلف‌ در کنار هم قرار می‌گیرند مثلا دور ثقیل اول و دور رمل.
صفی الدین معتقد است که مبدأ آهنگسازی از دو ضربه یا بیشتر آغاز می‌گردد که رعایت نسبت تعداد زمان‌ها در ادوار،شرطی انکار ناشدنی‌ است.
او در این مورد می‌گوید:اگر آهنگساز در مورد نسبت ادوار در برابر هم‌ آگاهی کامل داشته باشد می‌تواند همه ادوار را در یک دور در کنار هم جمع‌ کند.
تزیینات ایقاعی:
مصادر موسیقی قدیم تزیینات بسیار زیادی را برای ایقاعات‌ برمی‌شمرد که مهم‌ترین آنها برطبق نام‌گذاری فارابی تضعیف و یا توصیل‌ است و آن به معنی جایگزین‌کردن دو نقره به جای یک نقره است،و ورم و اشمام پرکردن فضای خالی بین ضربات با نقرات کوچک.اما صفی الدین‌ در کتابش فقط از یک تزیین ایقاعی نام می‌برد و آن ادراج به معنی مخفی‌ کردن است و منظور از آن حذف نقره یا نقراتی از ایقاع است با این شرط که‌ زمان آن مخفوظ باقی بماند.ابن سینا و ابن زیله و حسن کاتب این تزیین را با اسی‌طی‌ء معرفی می‌کند و فارابی با اسم تفصیل از آن یاد می‌کند.
توصیف ایقاعات عربی در مصادر:
ابن رشیق(999-4601 م)برای سنّاد که یکی از انواع نغمات جاهلی‌ است شش حالت را بیان می‌کند،ثقیل اول و خفیف آن،ثقیل دوم و خفیف‌ آن و رمل و خفیف آن و بعد نوع دیگری را با نام هزج بیان می‌کند که غناء خفیف است و می‌گوید«یرقص علیه و یمشی بالدف و المزمار»71بیشتر نظریه‌پردازان معتقدند که هزج نیز نام یکی از ایقاعات است و به خاطر تعمیم به این نوع از غناء نامیده شده است.همان‌طور که مثلا توبة تونسی‌ با اسماء ایقاعاتی که با آن آوازخوانده می‌شود نام می‌گیرد81.
این اسامی در بعضی از کتب اخبار و تألیفات نظری با کمی تغییر و اضافه تکرار شده است مثلا در کتاب اغانی الکبیر اصفهانی از هفت ایقاع‌ نام برده شده که با در نظرگرفتن ایقاع هزج و اطلاق نام ماخوری بر خفیف‌ ثقیل الثانی دقیقا همان چیزی است که ابن رشیق آن را بیان کرده است.
اولین نظریه‌ها در زمینه موسیقی که به دست ما رسیده است از آن‌ کندی است او از هشت ایقاع یاد می‌کند ثقیل الاول،ثقیل الثانی، الماخوری،خفیف الثقیل،الرمل خفیف،رمل خفیف الخفیف.در برابر کندی نیز دانشمندانی چون ابن زیله،فارابی،حسن کاتب همان ایقاعات‌ اصفهانی را تأیید می‌کنند.
صفی الدین در کتاب رساله به شش ایقاع با نام‌های ثقیل الاول‌ و ثقیل الثانی(الماخوری)،الرمل،خفیف الرمل و هزج اشاره کرده با این‌ تفاوت که او برخلاف دیگران خفیف ثقیل الاول و خفیف ثقیل الثانی‌ (ماخوری)را یکی دانسته و با نام خفیف الثقیل معرفی می‌کند به همین‌ دلیل در عصر او شش ایقاع مرسوم و متداول است.با دقت به آنچه در این‌ کتب و مصادر ذکر شده آمده می‌توان فهمید که با وجود توافق بر سر اسم‌ ایقاعات،اختلافاتی بین مؤلفان در ساخت یک ایقاع واحد وجود داشته‌ است.

همچنین در ایقاع المصمودی الصّغیر
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) در این ساختار نقره دوم و چهارم حذف شده اما زمان آن محفوظ می‌ماند
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) همین ترکیب ایقاعی را در وزن«الوحدة»مشاهده می‌کنیم که بسیاری‌ از آوازهای عربی با این وزن خوانده می‌شود.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) همین‌طور ترکیب وزنی ملفوف شرقی و برول تونسی(در شکلی ساده) (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) همین‌طور ترکیب رومبا:
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) خفیف ثقیل:صفی الدین برای این ایقاع یک ساختار بیان کرده که با تفعلیه فعلن تلفظ می‌شود و در برابر هر متحرک یک نقره قرار می‌گیرد و ترکیب آن در زیر می‌آید.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) ایقاع ایوب نیز از همین ترکیب است:
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) همچنین ایقاع هدّاوی جزائری:
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) الرمل:برحسب پراکندگی نقرات با تفعلیه مفتعلن مفتعلن مفتعلن به سه دسته‌ تقسیم می‌گردد.
ضرب آهنگ هر حرف متحرک از ایقاع رمل براساس تفعلیه‌ی مفتعلن‌ مفتعلن شکل می‌گیرد و ترکیب ایقاعی آن این‌گونه است.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) و آن در حقیقت تکرار شکل بالاست(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)که در ایقاعات‌ زیر هم یافت می‌شود.
-ایقاع سماعی‌دار ج:
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) -ایقاع یورک سماعی:
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) -ایقاع خفیف(از ایقاعات تونسی)
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) -ایقاع طول(از ایقاعات تونسی)
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) .ساختار دوم:چهار نقره از هشت نقره رمل است که در شکل زیر ترسیم می‌شود.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) شکل بالا را در یکی از معروف‌ترین ایقاعات تونسی با نام غیطه‌ می‌یابیم که علاوه بر دو ضربه شناخته شده ضربه دیگری را با نام طق یا صّفعه داراست که برای نواختن آن باید انگشتان سبابه،وسطی،بنصر و خنصر بسته شود البته این ضربه قوی‌تر از دو ضربه دیگر نواخته می‌شود، مانند شکل زیر:
شکل ساده شده‌ی ایقاع غیطه:
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)
کتاب ماه هنر » شماره 77 (صفحه 32)
ساختار سوم:براساس تکرار تفعیله فعلاتن پدید می‌آید و یک ترکیب‌ ایقاعی آن اینگونه است.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) یکی دیگر از ایقاعات تونسی،مدور تونسی نام دارد که همان شکل‌ بالا در آن تکرار می‌شود.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) خفیف رمل:زمان دور خفیف رمل نصف دور رمل کامل است. نویسنده معتقد است که موسیقی‌دانان هر دو دور از ادوار رمل را یک دور به‌ حساب می‌آورند و مجموعه‌ی زمان‌های آن(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)می‌گردد که در قسمت زمان‌های(1)قرار می‌گیرند.وزن رمل خفیف هم این‌گونه محاسبه‌ می‌شود(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)که از دسته زمان‌های(1)است ایقاع خفیف رمل و یا به‌ بیانی بهتر مضاعف خفیف رمل از تکرار دو تفعلیه متفعلن پدید می‌آید یعنی‌ (به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)که شکل ایقاعی آن را در وع اول ایقاع رمل مشاهده کردیم.
هزج:
از تکرار 2 تفعیله تنن شکل می‌گیرد که ترکیب ایقاعی آن را در شکل زیر مشاهده می‌نمایید.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) همین ترکیب در یکی از انواع ایقاعات تونسی با نام ختم کاربرد دارد.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) در ایقاعات تونسی با حرکتی سریع و کوچک برخورد می‌کنیم که‌ سلسله نام دارد در ضمن ایقاعی هم با نام سلسله یا هروب الختم ذکر شده‌ است که شکل زیر بیانگر آن است.
(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود)
چکیده:
نظریات ایقاعی صفی الدین را به‌طور خلاصه یادآور می‌شویم. صفی الدین زمان ایقاعات را با یک مقیاس می‌سنجد و آن را زمان معیار می‌نامد،اما این زمان معیار مقداری معین و مشخص ندارد او زمان معیار را به سه دسته(سریع،بطی،متوسط)تقسیم می‌کند.ابن سینا و ابن زیله‌ زمان معیار را به اندازه شنیدن حروف حبسی مثل ت می‌داند صفی الدین‌ حروف ساکن و متحرک را مقیاسی برای زمان ایقاعات قرار می‌دهد.
زمان(1)زمان بین نقرات اسباب ثقال با علامت(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) زمان(ب)زمان بین بدایات اسباب حفاف با علامت(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) زمان(ج)زمان بین بدایات اوتاد با علامت(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) زمان(د)زمان بین بدایات فواصل صغری با علامت(به تصویر صفحه مراجعه شود) اما تزیین ایقاعات با اشکال مختلفی صورت می‌گیرد،مانند ادراج، تضعیف،روم و اشمام که صفی الدین در رساله خود فقط به ادراج اشاره‌ کرده است.
صفی الدین به شش ایقاع متداول در عصر خویش اشاره می‌کند:
ثقیل اول(2 ساختار)،ثقیل الثانی(2 ساختار)،خفیف ثقیل(1 ساختار)،رمل(3 ساختار)،خفیف رمل(1 ساختار)،هزج(1 ساختار).
نظریات صفی الدین در مورد ایقاعات به استثناء کندی در راستای‌ نظریات گذشتگان است.
صفی الدین با ابداع و ترسیم دو اثر ایقاعی از یک وزن چندین ایقاع‌ دیگر هم به وجود آورد اما پیداست برای هرکدام از ایقاعات اسم خاصی‌ قرار نداده است.برای مثال از ایقاع ثقیل الثانی 5 ایقاع متداول در عصر ما به‌وجود آمده است:
1-دویک
2-مصمودی صغیر
3-وحدة
4-ملفوف
5-رمبا

بررسي و تعريف دو اصطلاح " ايقاع" و "وزن" با توجه به رسالات سده هاي سوم تا نهم هجري
نویسنده: پژمان رادمهر
کلیدواژه‌ها (انگلیسی)accompanying ?q?? poetic ?q?? ?q?? vazn(meterMelodic ?q?? regular ?q??
چکیده:
طي سده هاي سوم تا نهم هجري،‏ دانشمندان مسلمان اهتمام به نگارش رسالات موسيقي متعدد كردند. علم ايقاع تقريباً در تمامي رسالات،‏ بخشي را به خود اختصاص‌داده‌است. تقريباً در تمامي رسالات فوق‌‌االذكر،‏ تـعريف اصطلاح " ايقاع " ارايــه‌شده‌است برعكس اصطــلاح "وزن" كه تعريف آن منحصراً در يك رساله ( معيارالاشعار) ارايه‌شده‌است. دقت در تعاريف ارايه‌شده ازاصطلاح ايقاع ،‏ نشان‌مي‌دهد كه اين تعاريف در بعضي موارد با يكديگر متفاوت اند اما با هم درارتباط اند به اين معنـي كه رابطه‌ي عام و خاص با يكديگر دارند. عام‌ترين تعريفي كه ازاصطلاح ايقاع شده‌است،‏ "نگاه‌داشتن اندازه‌ي ازمنه‌ي نقرات " است. اگر اين تعريف را به عنوان تعريف مبنا اختياركنيم،‏ ساير تعريف‌هاي ايقاع،‏ يا معرف ايقاع لحني (كه مي‌توان آن" را نگــاه‌داشتن اندازه‌ي ازمنه‌ي نقرات لحنيه" دانست ) ( مثل تعريف فارابي) ،‏ يا معـرف ايقاع منتظـــم (كه مي‌توان آن را "نگـاه‌داشتن اندازه‌ي ازمنه‌ي نقراتي كه داراي دورهاي متساوي اند "دانست ) ( مثل تعريف صفي‌الدين ارموي) ،‏ يا معرف ايقاع لحني منتظم ( كه مي‌توان آن را "نگاه‌داشتن اندازه‌ي ازمنه‌ي نقرات لحنيه‌اي كه داراي دورهاي متساوي اند " دانست) ( مثل تعريف جامي) هستند .وزن را نيز (طبق تعريفي كه خواجه نصيراز آن ارائه‌مي‌كند ) مي‌توان"هياتي كه توسط ايقاع منتظم ايجادمي‌شود" دانست.
چکیده (انگلیسی):
From the 3th to the 9th AH centuries (Lunar), Muslim scientists endeavored to write numerous treatises on music. Almost in all treatises the science of ?q?' allocated a section to itself and in rare cases,included the whole treatise. The definition of "?q??"has been introduced in almost all the treatises mentioned above, contrary to the definition of "vazn" which has been introduced only in one treatise. A close observation on the definitions of the term ?q?', proves that in some cases the definitions are different but related; they have general and exclusive relation. Here is the most general and comprehensive definition of "?q?? ": "maintaining the length of the time units of naqar?t(naqreh-ha)".Naqreh is the Persian word for naqrat and naqrat means naqr one time and according to the definition presented by F?r?b?, naqr is striking the narrow extremity of a hard object onto another hard object, so this contact seems to be limited to one point. The narrowness of the object which strikes and fewness of its components is relative; therefore he continued that the thinner the object, the better it satisfies the meaning of the word naqr. Avicenna generalizes the term "naqreh" as to hitting one's sound generative limbs when speaking or singing such as lips, tongue, etc. Avicenna mentions two kinds of naqreh : a naqreh which produces a tone and a naqreh which produces a letter. The definition of naqreh given by Abd al-q?der suggests that there are 3 types of naqreh: it is of practitioners' opinion that naqreh is either to vocalize a letter, or to strike a string, to clap or more generally to strike any object onto another; first ,the naqreh which produces a letter, second, the naqreh which produces a tone, third, the naqreh which neither produces a letter nor produces a tone, such as striking a daf( a percussion instrument). J?m? calls the naqar?t producing tones, naqar?t-i lahn?yyah( melodic naqar?t) and the naqar?t being produced by hands or other instruments which are played accompanying the metric melody, naqar?t-i ghayr-i lahn?yyah( non-melodic naqar?t). Owbah? calls the naqar?t producing tones which are considered as the beginning of time units of tones, naqar?t-i mub?d?yah and the naqar?t being used together with tones(such as clapping or striking a daf(a percussion instrument) by hand ) and are specified to metric melody, naqar?t-i muq?renah. By choosing this definition of the term ?q??: " maintaining the length of the time units of naqar?t" as the basis definition, every other definition of ?q?? is in a manner more exclusive than this one. These definitions indicate either "melodic ?q?? " (which can be considered as maintaining the length of the time unit of melodic naqar?t) (such as F?r?b??s definition), "Regular ?q?? "(which can be considered as maintaining the length of the time unit of the naqar?t that has equal cycles) (such as Saf?-al-d?n's), or "Regular Melodic ?q?? "(which can be considered as maintaining the length of the time unit of melodic naqar?t that has equal cycles) (such as J?m??s definition).

قوانین کیهانی هرمس، ادریس یا اخنوخ؟!


هفت قانون معنوی  موفقیت
اگر چه عنوان این مطلب هفت قانون معنوی موفقیت است، می توان آن را هفت قانون معنوی زندگی نامید زیرا همان اصولی را عرضه می کند که طبیعت برای آفرینش هر چیز در  بعد مادی - هر آنچه می بینیم و می شنویم و استشمام می کنیم ، مزه می کنیم و لمس می کنیم- از آنها سود می جوید.
موفقیت در زندگی را می توان به صورت گسترش مداوم شادمانی وتحقق فزاینده هدف های ارزشمند تعریف کرد. موفقیت یعنی این  توانایی که آرزوهایتان را با سهولت و بی تکاپو برآورده سازید. با این حال موفقیت - از جمله آفرینش ثروت- همواره به صورت فرایندی مستلزم سختکوشی و اغلب به بهای صدمه زدن به دیگران پنداشته شده است.
نیاز داریم نسبت به موفقیت و فراوانی، نگرشی معنوی تر داشته باشیم که به معنای جریان فراوان همه موهبت های نیکوست. با وقوف به قانون معنوی و کاربرد آن، خود را در هماهنگی با طبیعت قرار می دهیم و سبکبالی و شادمانی و عشق می آفرینیم. قبل از تعریف هفت قانون معنوی، بیایید به مفهوم قانون پی ببریم. قانون فرآیندی است که طی آن نامتجلی متجلی و ناظر، منظور می شود. فرآیندی که طی آن نظاره گر منظره می شود و رویابین رویای خود را متجلی می سازد.

اکنون بیایید به سراغ هفت قانون معنوی موفقیت برویم و ببینیم چگونه می توانیم آنها در زندگیمان به کار ببریم.

1- قانون توانایی مطلق:
نخستین قانون موفقیت، قانون توانایی مطلق است. این قانون مبتنی بر این واقعیت است که ما - در جوهر - آگاهی مطلقیم. آگاهی مطلق، توانایی مطلق و حیطه تمامی امکانات و خلاقیت  نامحدود است. آگاهی مطلق جو هر معنوی ماست. همچنین بیکران و نامحدود بودن، شادمانی محض است.
سایر ویژگی های آگاهی عبارتند از دانش مطلق، سکوت بی انتها، تعادل کامل، شکست ناپذیری، سادگی و بهجت. و این طبیعت بنیادی ماست. طبیعت بنیادی ما، یکی از توانایی های مطلق است. وقتی طبیعت بنیادی خود را کشف می کنید و در می یابید به راستی کیستید، خود آن شناخت یعنی توانایی برآورده شدن و برآورده ساختن هر رویایی که دارید، زیرا قدرت و امکان جاودانید: آن قدرت قیاس ناپذیر که بوده و هست و خواهد بود.
قانون توانایی مطلق را می توان قانون وحدت نیز خواند زیرا در کثرت نامحدود حیات، وحدت جانی یگانه نهفته و همه چیز را فرا گرفته است. میان شما و این حیطه نیرو، ذره ای جدایی وجود ندارد. حیطه توانایی مطلق، ضمیر خودتان است و هر چه طبیعت راستین خود را بیشتر تجربه کنید، به حیطه توانایی مطلق نزدیکتر خواهید بود.

چگونه می توانیم قانون توانایی مطلق را در زندگیمان به کار بندیم؟ اگر می خواهید از منافع حیطه توانایی مطلق محظوظ شوید و از تمامی خلاقیتی که جزو لاینفک آگاهی مطلق است به طور کامل سود جویید، باید بتوانید به آن دسترسی پیدا کنید. یکی از راه های دستیابی به این حیطه، تمرین روزانه سکوت و مراقبت و عدم داوری است. صرف زمانی در طبیعت نیز می تواند موجب دستیابی به ویژگی های لاینفک این حیطه - خلاقیت و آزادی و بهجت بیکران - شود.

2- قانون بخشایش:
دومین قانون معنوی موفقیت قانون بخشایش است. این قانون را می توان قانون داد و ستد نیز خواند.
زیرا کائنات از طریق مبادله پویا عمل می کند. هیچ چیز ایستا نیست. جسمتان در حال مبادله پویا و مداوم با جسم کائنات است. ذهنتان به طرزی پویا با ذهن کیهان ارتباط متقابل دارد. نیرویتان نمایانگر انرژی کیهانی  است جریان حیات هیچ نیست مگر ارتباط متقابل و هماهنگ همه عناصر و نیروهایی که به صورت قانون بخشایش عمل می کند.

چون جسم و ذهنتان و کائنات در مبادله پویا و مداومند، بندآوردن جریان نیرو مانند بندآوردن جریان خون است. هرگاه خون از جریان باز ایستد دچار احتقان و گرفتگی و ایستایی می شود. به این دلیل باید ببخشایید و بستانید تا بتوانید ثروت و فراوانی - یا هر چه را که در زندگی خواهانید- در زندگیتان در جریان  نگه دارید.

هر چه بیشتر- ببخشید، بیشتر دریافت می کنید. زیرا فراوانی کائنات را در زندگیتان در جریان نگه می دارید. در واقع، هر آنچه که در زندگی ارزش داشته باشد فقط زمانی فزونی می یابد که بخشیده  شود. آنچه در اثر بخشیدن افزایش نیابد، نه ارزش بخشیدن دارد و نه ارزش دریافت کردن، چنانچه با عمل بخشیدن احساس کنید که چیزی را از دست داده اید واقعا آن هدیه را نداده اید و موجب افزایش آن نخواهد شد. اگر با اکراه ببخشایید، نیرویی در پس آن بخشایش وجود ندارد.

3- قانون «کار ما» یا علت و  معلول:
 سومین قانون معنوی موفقیت، قانون کارماست. «کار ما» هم عمل است و هم نتیجه عمل; هم علت است و هم معلول، زیرا هر عملی نیرویی را تولید می کند که به همان شکل به ما باز می گردد. درباره قانون کار ما چیز ناشناخته ای وجود ندارد. همه این اصطلاح را شنیده اند که :«هر چه بکاری همان را درو می کنی» بدیهی است اگر بخواهیم در زندگیمان شادمانی ایجاد کنیم، باید بیاموزیم که بذرشادمانی را بکاریم. بنابراین مفهوم ضمنی «کارما» انتخاب آگاهانه است. ما اساسا انتخاب کنندگانی نامحدودیم.
بعضی از این انتخاب ها آگاهانه اند و مابقی به طور ناخودآگاه صورت گرفته اند. اما بهترین راه برای فهمیدن و به حداکثر رساندن استفاده از قانون کار ما، هوشیاری آگاهانه از انتخاب های هر لحظه است. هر آنچه که در این لحظه پیش میآید نتیجه انتخاب هایی است که در گذشته به آن دست زده اید. بدبختانه، بسیاری از ما به طور ناخودآگاه انتخاب می کنیم. بنابراین فکر نمی کنیم که آنها انتخاب بوده اند، حال آنکه بوده اند، اگر به شما توهینی شده به احتمال زیاد انتخاب می  کردید که بربخشید.

اگر شما را تحسین می کردند، به احتمال زیاد انتخاب می کردید که خشنود شوید یا به خود ببالید. اما درباره اش بیندیشید. همچنان یک انتخاب است. اگر لحظه ای گامی به پس بردارید و در لحظه ای که به انتخاب دست می زنید به آن بنگرید، آنگاه این نظاره کردن سبب می شود که کل فرآیند را از حیطه ناهشیار به حیطه هشیار بیاورید، این روش انتخاب آگاهانه و نظاره آن بسیار قدرت بخش است.

4-قانون کمترین تلاش:
این قانون مبتنی بر این واقعیت است که هوشمندی طبیعت با سهولت بی تکاپو و با سبک دلی پذیرا عمل می کند. این اصل کمترین عمل و عدم مقاومت است. از این رو، این اصل هماهنگی و عشق است. هر گاه این درس را از طبیعت بیاموزیم به آسانی آرزوهایمان را برآورده می سازیم.
اگر کار طبیعت را نظاره کنید، خواهید دید که کمترین تلاش را به کار می برد. علف نمی کوشد رشد کند، فقط رشد می کند. ماهی نمی کوشد شنا کند، فقط شنا می کند. پرنده ها نمی کوشند پرواز کنند، فقط پرواز می کنند. این طبیعت فکری آنهاست و این طبیعت انسان است که رویاهایش را به آسانی و بی تلاش به صورت اجسام متجلی سازد.
در حکمت کهن هند، این اصل را به صورت اصل  اقتصاد تلا ش یا «کمتر عمل کن و بیشتر به انجام برسان» شناخته اند. سرانجام به جایی می رسید که هیچ نمی کنید و همه چیز را به انجام می رسانید.

این بدان معناست که فقط آرمانی کمرنگ وجود دارد و آنگاه تجلی آرمان بدون تلاش صورت می گیرد. آنچه که معمولا «معجزه» خوانده می شود عملا نمایانگر قانون کمترین تلاش است. کمترین تلاش زمانی روی می دهد که انگیزه اعمالتان عشق باشد، زیرا آنچه که موجب انسجام طبیعت می شود نیروی عشق است. وقتی جویای قدرت هستید و می خواهید اختیار سایر مردم را به دست بگیرید، نیرو را به هدر می دهید.
وقتی محض خاطر «من» پول یا قدرت می جویید، به جای کامجویی از شادمانی همین لحظه، نیرویتان را صرف دوری از پی توهم شادمانی می کنید. وقتی پول را فقط برای منافع شخصی می جویید، حرکت نیرویی را که باید به سوی شما جریان یابد بند می آورید و در بیان هوشمندی طبیعت مداخله می کنید. اما هرگاه انگیزه اعمالتان عشق باشد، نیرو به هدر نمی رود. هرگاه انگیزه اعمالتان عشق باشد، نیرویتان چندین برابر گردآوری می شود و نیروی مازادی که گرد می آورید و از آن محظوظ می شوید می تواند در راه آفرینش هر چه بخواهید مصرف شود.

5- قانون قصد و آرزو:
این قانون مبتنی بر این واقعیت است که در هر نقطه طبیعت، انرژی  و اطلاعات وجود دارد. درواقع، در سطح حیطه کوآنتوم هیچ چیز جز اطلاعات و انرژی وجود ندارد. حیطه کوآنتومی فقط نامی دیگر برای حیطه آگاهی مطلق یا توانایی مطلق است و از طریق قصد و آرزو می توان بر این حیطه کوآنتومی اثر نهاد. در سطح مادی، هم شما و هم درخت از عناصر تبدیل شده یکسانی ساخته شده اید، بیشتر از کربن و هیدروژن و اکسیژن و نیتروژن. در واقع، شما و درخت به طور مداوم کربن و اکسیژن خود را با یکدیگر مبادله می کنید.
تفاوت راستین میان شما دو تن، در انرژی و اطلاعات شماست. انسان سلسله اعصابی دارد که می تواند از محتوای انرژی و اطلاعاتی آن حیطه کانونی که موجب استعلای جسم فیزیکی می شود آگاه شود. آنچه در مورد سلسله اعصاب انسان در خور توجه است این است که می تواند از طریق قصد آگاهانه به قدرت نظام دهنده نامحدود فرمان دهد. قصد در نوع انسان به یک شبکه خشک و سرسخت انرژی و اطلاعات، بسته و محدود نیست. به عبارت دیگر، مادامی که از سایر قوانین طبیعت تخلف نورزید، عملا از طریق قصدتان می توانید به قوانین طبیعت فرمان دهید تا رویاها و آرزوهایتان را برآورد.
قصد زمینه کار را برای جریان بی تکاپو و خودانگیخته  و بی اصطکاک حیطه توانایی مطلق که جویای تجلی از نامتجلی است آماده می کند. تنها هشدار این است که قصدتان را برای خیر و صلاح بشریت به کار ببرید و این امر هنگامی که با هفت قانون معنوی موفقیت همنوا باشید، خود به خود رخ می دهد.

6- قانون عدم دلبستگی:
قانون عدم دلبستگی می گوید که برای حصول هر چیز درعالم مادی، باید از دلبستگی خود به آن دست بکشید. این بدان معنا نیست که از قصد آفرینش آرزوهایتان دست می کشید. از قصد و آرزویتان دست نمی کشید. از دلبستگی به ثمره آن دست می کشید. این عمل بسیار قدرتمند است. لحظه ای که دلبستگی به ثمره را رها می کنید، صاحب آنی خواهید شد که آرزومندید. هر آنچه که خواهانید می تواند از طریق عدم دلبستگی به دست آید، زیرا عدم دلبستگی مبتنی بر اعتقاد بی تردید به قدرت ضمیر راستین خودتان است.

قانون عدم دلبستگی، کل فرآیند تکامل را سرعت می بخشد. هرگاه این قانون را دریابید، احساس نخواهید کرد که ناچارید راه حل ها را تحمیل کنید. وقتی راه حل ها را به مشکلات تحمیل می کنید، فقط مشکلات تازه ایجاد خواهید کرد. اما وقتی توجهتان را به عدم یقین معطوف می کنید، امیدوارانه منتظر می شوید تا از میان اغتشاش و آشفتگی، راه حل شکوفا نشود، آنگاه آنچه شکوفا می شود چیزی بی همتا و هیجان انگیز خواهد بود.

7- قانون «دارما» یا غایت حیات:
«دارما» به زبان سانسکریت یعنی «غایت حیات». طبق این قانون صاحب استعدادی بی همتایید و به شیوه ای بی همتا آن را بیان و عیان می کنید. کاری هست که بهتر از هر کس دیگر در این جهان می توانید آن را به انجام برسانید و برای هر استعداد بی همتا و شیوه بیان بی همتای آن استعداد نیز نیازهای بی همتا وجود دارند.
وقتی این نیازها با بیان خلاق استعدادتان مطابقت کنند، جرقه ای است که فراوانی می آفریند. قانون دارما سه جزو دارد: نخستین جزو می گوید که هر یک از ما اینجاییم تا ضمیر راستین خویش را کشف کنیم و دریابیم که ضمیر راستین ما معنوی است و اساسا موجوداتی معنوی هستیم. جزو دوم، نمایان ساختن استعدادهای یکتای ماست قانون دارما می گوید که هر انسان دارای استعدادی بی همتاست.

جزو سوم، خدمت به بشریت است. خدمت به همنوعان وپرسیدن این سوال از خود که «چگونه می توانم کمک کنم؟» وقتی توانایی بیان استعداد یکتای خود را با خدمت به بشریت می آمیزید، آنگاه قانون دارما را به طور کامل به اجرا در می آورید و همراه با تجربه معنوی خویش، امکان پذیر نیست که به فراوانی نامحدود دست نیابید، زیرا راه راستین دستیابی به فراوانی همین است.

"WHERE FALL THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE MASTER, THE EARS OF THOSE READY FOR HIS TEACHING OPEN WIDE."

We overcome the lower laws, by applying still higher ones --and in this way only.  But we cannot escape Law or rise above it entirely.  Nothing but THE ALL can escape Law --and that because THE ALL is LAW itself, from which all Laws emerge....  
The most advanced Masters may acquire the powers usually attributed to the gods of men; and there are countless ranks of being, in the great hierarchy of life, whose being and power transcends even that of the highest Masters among men to a degree unthinkable by mortals, but even the highest Master, and the highest Being, must bow to the Law, and be as Nothing in the eye of THE ALL.  So that even these highest Beings, whose power exceed even those attributed by men to their gods --if even these are bound by and are subservient to Law, then imagine the presumption of mortal man, of our race and grade, when he dares to consider the Laws of Nature as "unreal," visionary and illusory, because he happens to be able to grasp the truth that the Laws are Mental in nature, and simply Mental Creations of THE ALL.  
Those Laws which THE ALL intends to be governing Laws are not to be defied or argued away.  So long as the Universe endures, will they endure --for the Universe exists by virtue of these Laws which form its framework and which hold it together.

In THE ALL, indeed, do "we live and move and have our being."  
So, do not feel insecure or afraid --we are HELD FIRMLY IN THE INFINITE MIND OF THE ALL.

(Three Initiates)

The KYBALION

In the scriptures: "We live, move, and have our being within God."
The Omnipresence of "THE ALL" is an inevitable and inescapable reality that all of us live, move, and have are being in.

Today, many people become entangled in the external turmoil of the world as some humans become maimed and murdered in the name of GOD by religious and political fanatics with tunnel vision who have no Knowledge of THE ALL or The SPIRIT'S true reality.  They do not seek to contribute and assist humanity in their Spiritual advancement except to destroy.  Like the carnivorous beasts in nature are they territorial and they lay cunningly in wait for their next victim.  The beasts in nature are not blamed for following their cravings so prompted by the Laws of Nature.  But man in whom intellect has unfolded is capable of descending below the animal plane and becomes satanic in nature having sunk very low in the scale of Life while embracing the lower parts of Mental Polarity in Human Nature.  Just because it is in the nature of humans doesn't mean that we should go there.  These types of humans are found not only in the arena of religious and political fanaticism but in all levels of society including world commerce in the greed, theft, dishonesty, fraud, and underhandedness, of certain corporate entities of which none is a contributor to the advancement of humanity but to bring suffering and destruction to humans.  All of this because of the ignorance of Spiritual LAW that will take a hand in their demise.  In time they will become as broken reeds in the winds of change.  They will not escape The LAW of SPIRIT.  
At the moment we are living in a time that will display the very best and the very worst in humans with a increasingly widening gap between the two aspects in all levels of society as humans become increasingly polarized in groups according to their conduct and choices in Life.  It is similar to the gathering and separation of wheat from the tares.  It is a process of separation between  the considerate and kind person from the egocentric person, the loving from the hateful, the benevolent from malevolent etc., as each will be gathered according to their choices and work.  The Mental Law of POLARITY and CAUSE AND EFFECT will bundle each of them together in a Polarizing process while CAUSE AND EFFECT will cause the just compensation according to the choices.  Nothing can escape THE LAW.  There is a gnashing of teeth by those who have become trapped in the lower parts of human nature and who are unable to climb out of their pit.  One will be blessed with a long Life while the other is in danger of becoming terminated in physical death.
You can rest assured that THE LAW will take a hand in bringing change in all things, slow as it maybe.  It is slow only because humans are resistant to change and are reluctant to put their trust into a something that is not visible to their eyes or at least a something that resembles the human form.  They will suffer while relying on their own intellect to navigate through Life.  The SPIRIT of THE ALL cannot force its will upon humans because it is not possible for SPIRIT to violate its own LAW in that humans are free moral agents to choose as they wish without any interference from SPIRIT even if it brings destruction.  Therefore are humans responsible in what they choose in Life and whatever path they may take with the resulting "Cause and Effect" in the consequences that follow (dharma/karma).  Nevertheless, no human can stand in one place in the Rhythm of time as the "power" in the evolutionary process will drive them upward and onward and today's events will be swallowed up in the record of history.  
THE LAW of SPIRIT is perpetual, immutable, and self administering.  It does not have government, policemen, courts and jails to enforce its LAW for maintaining order.  THE LAW of SPIRIT is no respecter of persons, religions, governments, institutions, race, or ethnic background.  All are subject to The LAW of Omnipresent SPIRIT without regard for special treatment or favoritism.  
We must remember that all of us exist and live upon this seemingly insignificant infinitesimal little dot called planet earth that is suspended in the enormous vastness of surrounding universal space sprinkled with suns, worlds, and galaxies that move with enormous and frightening velocity through space including our own Milky way galaxy.  What do we suppose is the power that drives and move all these things?   Imagine how small, limited, and deceiving the perception of our ocular reality by thinking that what we see is all there is.... 
Because of the various dividing aspects of organized religion, as many of them are divided, disagreeing, debating, and bickering amongst themselves, it is a necessity that religion and government remain separate lest one religion becomes dominant and assuring their own advancement while making sure that the other should not succeed by manipulating the law of the land in their favor and causing additional suffering to humans who may not share their fanatical religious views.
HERMETIC  AXIOM
The ancient Hermetists have never sought to be martyrs, and have, instead, sat silently aside with pitying smile on their closed lips, while the "heathen raged noisily about them" in their customary amusement of putting to death and torture the honest but misguided enthusiasts who imagined that they could force upon a race of barbarians the truth capable of being understood only by the elect who had advanced along The Path.
And the spirit of persecution has not yet died out in the land.  There are certain Hermetic Teachings, which, if publicly promulgated, would bring down upon the teachers a great cry of scorn and revilement from the multitude, who would again raise the cry of "Crucify! Crucify!"

The "seventh" letter "G" in the alphabet is the first letter in the name G-O-D.  Seven denotes a number of completions such as in the "Seven" Principles of COSMIC LAW that holds the Universe together.  The Seven Principles is an indication of the inseparable and immutable "Omnipresence" of SPIRIT in the Universe and within all of us without exceptions or exclusions.  We see the evidence of The SPIRIT'S power in the motion of all celestial bodies in the macrocosm such as the Exploding quasars, swirling galaxies and hurdling worlds, including our own Earth, while everything moves through space with unimaginable velocity and the constant motion and vibration of atomic particles in the microcosm.  All of this is the work of INFINITE SPIRIT.  Imagine certain arrogant megalomaniacal humans that equate to the size of an insignificant infinitesimal gnat in view of all these things when compared to the size and power of SPIRIT.  When attending church, synagogue, temple, mosque, bear these things in Mind because you can help each other advance in the Knowledge of SPIRIT and help struggling humanity for a meaning in Life and create a pollution free planet that is peaceful and prosperous not only for ourselves but for the future generations who are dependent on what we do today.  The key to this is the Unity of Mind that can only be accomplished through the Knowledge and understanding of SPIRIT.  It is the only key that will melt the territorial tendencies of country, religion, and individual arrogance towards one another.  SPIRIT cannot be left out of the equation in our efforts because it is the only power that transcends human limitations and the superficiality of shaky written negotiations between countries.  It is the only power that can establish trust between all of us.  Why is SPIRIT not communicating with all of us?  Because not all of us are listening to what SPIRIT has to say.  We are too busy engaging in polluting our Minds with the egocentricity of religious noise and war.  We have taken the helm of the INFINITE in our own lives and we live as if there is no God.  Therefore, are we not good captains or stewards of our ship as we are making a mess out of ourselves and our planet.  It is not without the horrifying consequences of CAUSE AND EFFECT.  The default manifestation of SPIRIT is in the unconditional creation and preservation of Universal LIFE and prosperity for all humans without exception.  We create poverty because of our ignorance of the abundance of SPIRIT and because of shortsighted greed that will prevent us from recognizing our own wealth and we are found in wanton and turn to the dark side in the futility of low passions and appetites for survival....
Man if he chooses, may excel the beasts in bestiality --he may descend to depths of which the beast would never have thought.  The beast is governed solely by instinct, and his actions, so prompted, are perfectly natural and proper, and the animal is not blamed for following the impulses of its nature.  But man, in whom intellect has unfolded, knows that it is contrary to his highest nature to descend to the level of the beasts --yea, lower by far.  He adds to the brute desires the cunning and intelligence which have come to him, and deliberately prostitutes his higher principle to the task of carrying out the magnified animal propensities.  Very few animals abuse their desires --it is left for some men to do so.  The higher the degree of intellect unfolded in man, the greater the depths of low passions, appetites, and desires possible to him.  He actually creates new brute desires, or rather builds edifices of his own upon the brute foundations....
....which will result in the soul having to spend many weary years in retracing its steps over the backward road it has trodden.   Its progress has been retarded, and it will be compelled to re-travel the road to freedom, in common with the beast like natures of undeveloped creatures whose proper state of the journey it is, having an additional burden in the shape of the horror of consciousness of its surroundings, whereas its companions have no such consciousness and consequently suffer not.
Yogi Ramacharaka  
Fourteen Lessons in Yogi Philosophy (1903)

The "unwritten" Law of the Universe, known as the "Seven Hermetic Principles,"  master key of the Ageless Arcane Wisdom.... an illumined perception of COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS beyond space, time, and the material world of form and force.  The human Mind has its existence solely within the Universal Cosmic MIND of THE ALL and is compelled to abide along the lines of firmly established mental principles in order to function properly and efficiently.  The LAW written on this web page deals with the powerful forces and cycles of Nature and the underlying causation of Principles that governs all of surrounding Nature, the human Mind and its behavior, and the inescapable consequences that follow.  The Seven Principles are universal in nature and its effects can be observed by the mindful and careful observer in the Great Physical Plane by observing the behavior of electrical energy, light, gravity, the attraction and repulsion of atomic particles which can be mathematically defined with great precision when fully understood.  In the Great Mental Plane the Seven Principles manifest, rule, and govern the seven major Chakra system of the human body in the manifestation of man and woman upon the physical plane and is responsible for the sustenance of the body in the efficient utilization of air, water, food and the proper distribution of energy throughout the body and the upward or Divine-ward evolutionary advancement of humans.  Disease is the result of an interference of this subconscious process when an improper Mind is maintained and the organs starve and degenerate because they are unable to utilize energy properly.  Stress, because of one thing or another is a good example of an "interference."  The manifestation of male and female in all species, and their sexual behavior in its various colors and shades, is ruled by the Seventh Principle of GENDER and is accompanied by the consequential effects of the Sixth Principle of CAUSE AND EFFECT. 
The Earth is suspended in the heavens and moves thru space, time, and the immutable perpetual change of evolution surrounded by infinite fathomless space permeated by the extremely tenuous ethereal web of SPIRIT.  It is subject to the SPIRIT'S manifestation of Universal Principles and creative efforts of which nothing can escape its enormous presence.  Our seemingly physical reality or material world of "solid objects" is in truth not as material or as solid as we think or believe that it is because our entire "material world," including ourselves, are composed of atomic particles that emerge from an invisible field of Universal Energy.  Nuclear particles that momentarily appear, then disappear back into the field of energy from whence it came.  This process is repeated with unimaginable rapidity and is the physical world we see and are familiar with in our daily lives without giving it further thought.  This process is The GREAT CREATOR at work in the manifestation of our lives, our Earth, and the Universe as we are able to understand and perceive it.  As we all can see, it takes power and energy to make these things happen and physical reality cannot be without it for even a miniscule moment.  Knowing this, how is it that humanity can be so violent towards each other except for gross ignorance, being that we all appear from the same field of energy and we all return to it every moment of our lives?
There are underlying causations to which most humans remain oblivious to its reality and consequently it is nonexistent to them.   The Subconscious Mind edits and removes from the Mind the things that the individual "believes" to be non-existent and tailors its perception of reality according to his or her beliefs.  It is because of this difference in belief systems that the world suffers from violence, war and strife.  Unity of Mind in humanity can only be accomplished when it is understood that the Universe operates by firmly established Principles of SPIRIT that are independent of an individual's beliefs or religion.  These Principles affect the Human Mind in the choices that it makes and the resulting events that follow in its reality and is closely connected to the surrounding environment of Nature.  When the Human Mind can recognize and understand these Principles of SPIRIT, it has acquired a "mental compass" which needle will always point in the same direction no matter which way a man or woman turns.  Beliefs are replaced by KNOWLEDGE and no matter how many humans acquire this "mental compass," all their needles will always point in the same direction because The LAWS of SPIRIT are universal in application and is no respecter of persons, religion, beliefs, skin color, ethnic background, government, or nation.  This LAW operates in the Human Mind no matter what its choices are or whether or not it is aware of the Principles because all of us humans and the "matter" of our physical world is holographically connected to the INFINITE CREATOR and nothing can escape its INFINITE presence.  All of reality that we are able to  perceive or not perceive in our current conscious awareness depends upon this INFINITE SPIRIT and its Principles for the sustenance, maintenance, and existence of all Life and keeps the Universe in perfect and absolute order in the aspect of constant Creation and Manifestation.  SPIRIT is the only "constant" that does not change along with the evolution of the Universe, in fact, SPIRIT is the CAUSE of the evolution of the Universe because IT does not allow anything to "stand still."  This is the mark of SPIRIT, that GOD may be seen in all things....  All of humanity lives, moves, and have their being within the SPIRIT of GOD --an immutable and inescapable answer to the meaning of Life.
It is believed that humans are increasingly becoming one with God as they progress Spiritually.  The truth is, that we are not "increasingly" becoming one with THE ALL.  The "becoming" is in the awakening of our consciousness and awareness that we have always been one with the SPIRIT OF THE ALL.  Even before physical manifestation are we all in SPIRIT because THE ALL is an inescapable reality that defies space, time, and perpetual change.   In other words, we cannot think in terms of space and time when think of GOD because time as well as space is constantly changing thru the process of evolution.  Time as we understand it is based on the rotation of the Earth around its own axes as well as its rotation around the Sun that we perceive as a day and a year respectively.  This perception of time only applies to our own Earth.  How shall we measure time when we travel to the Pleiades for example?  Do we go by Earth time?  By what other means do we measure time?  Which perception of time should we utilize?  Then, there is the problem of being a mortal Human that limits its accomplishments.  You see, time is an illusion and is therefore a relative aspect of Space and its contents.  When we think of THE ALL, we cannot think in terms of Space, Time, and Perpetual Change or Evolution as we understand it.  We must rethink and learn to understand the true definition of "Eternal" --in the absence of time.  This is a very difficult task for the conditioned Human Consciousness and its gravitational bound perception of reality.  It is the perception of a mortal Human race....
Science views the Universe in terms of Earth time because there are no other known ways of relative time measurements.  Because of this, do they utilize "light years" when they measure distances between celestial bodies in the Universe.  It the only way to make sense of measuring enormous vast distances.  Our own galaxy which measures 100,000 light years across is so vast that we measure distances between the stars in terms of light years.  A light year is based on "Earth time" and is the only way that we can make sensible measurements between celestial bodies in the Universe.  Light yearsare utilized by science because it is not possible to measure in miles or kilometers when we have numbers with twenty digits or more.  Light travels at approximately 186,000 miles per second, that is almost eight times around the earth in one second.  It would still take a 100,000 years of travel to traverse our own Milky way Galaxy at that velocity.  This is not possible for mortal man to accomplish.  These are unimaginable distances to the average person.  If the Universe is unimaginably huge, imagine the size of THE ALL in whose INFINITE MIND the Universe is held; the God that people worship in their favorite church, temple, or mosque.  They have no idea of The SPIRIT'S absolute presence.  When a person comes to KNOW and UNDERSTAND the reality of THE ALL, their mundane religious beliefs becomes silenced in their own Minds as they awaken to the realization that they are always standing in the inescapable and absolute presence of THE MOST HIGH.
Our ultimate task in Life then is to master the lower parts of our own Nature and utilizing The Seven Great Principles which rule the Chakra system within us and manifests the physical body and its associated organs.  To become the Master of our own Life is what we are here in physical Life for.  Hopefully, we can accomplish this before entropy and decay claims our bodies.  Therefore, is time utilization in our lives critical in accomplishing this and depends on how much we spend of our time in the advancement of Spiritual Knowledge.  It is based on our own personal choices in Life for which each of us are ultimately responsible for the consequential results.  Humans have complete freedom to choose the things in Life whether or not it is good or evil.  If it is evil, they will have to deal with the law of the land and is an aspect of the lower parts of Human Nature.  Should they successfully escape the law of the land, they will not escape the operations of The SEVEN PRINCIPLES of Cosmic Law to which the Chakra system of our bodies is infinitely connected.  This is the meaning of GOD within all of us  --"We live, move, and have our being within GOD."  An inescapable reality....
There are those who have walked the path before us and who have accomplish self-mastery and who are not members of the collective mindset of our race consciousness.  They have risen above the race consciousness and are the masters of their own mental habits.  They are not bound by space and time or gravity because they have escaped for the most part the perpetual change of Evolution by rapidly ascending on the scale of Life.  They have become as gods, the gods of their own being.  Though, they are as gods and rule on their own plane, they can never be THE ALL in whom they live, move, and have their being.  Mastery does not mean that one human will rule another human.  It is not possible for humans to rule or exert power upon anything outside of their own consciousness when they cannot even rule and discipline the mental habits of their own Minds in the Mental art of Self-Mastery.  How shall this type of person extend his or her own influence beyond their own Minds upon other humans and the environment in which they live, when they have not even learned to accomplish the Mental art of Self-Mastery and they live undisciplined lives ruled by the swinging pendulum of RHYTHM?  The concept of personal power in the Spiritually undeveloped Human Mind is for the most part superficial, non-enduring, subject to rapid change and mood-swings, is potentially hazardous to their health and well being and could terminate in disembodiment because they are unable to utilize "power" properly.  Hitler and Stalin are examples of this.  Where are they now?  Both have turned to dust and there are others today who will follow in their footsteps.  This is the path of ignorant mortal man.  
Only THE ALL will always remain, constantly manifesting and governing the Universe in ABSOLUTE POWER, even long after the Earth has vanished from the Milky Way Galaxy in the ebb and tides of perpetual change.  Only those who know THE ALL and are immortal Masters of Life will always remain in the manifested Universe.  What will their concept of reality be?  What will they see and understand?  All this will remain a secret behind the veil of our own Mentalism until we ourselves arrive as the "Masters of Life" and we can understand.  We would be as gods --"Know ye not, that ye are gods?" (Jesus)
The accomplishment of physical Immortality is in the ability of Self-Mastery through Spiritual Knowledge by rising above the death-grip of the mortal race consciousness and is a transcendence above space, time, and perpetual change.  How is this possible one might ask?  The answer is, because "THE ALL IS MIND, The Universe is Mental."  
Always keep an open Mind.  One never knows what will come their way when the Mind is opened to the influx of SPIRIT.

The Ancient Wisdom of Hermes and the manifestation of "humans" and "matter."

13. For the Mind being God, [THE ALL], Male and Female [the Principle of Gender], Life and Light [SPIRIT], brought forth by his Word; another Mind [a Spirit; a ray of Light, a Life from the great Central Sun], the Workman [the Soul]; which being God of the Fire, and the Spirit, fashioned and formed seven other Governors, which in their Circles [the Chakras] contain the Sensible World [the manifestation of human consciousness and the five bodily senses into the Physical Plane], whose Government or Disposition is called Fate or Destiny [the freedom and responsibility of humanity's thinking and actions; the consequences that follow as governed by Mental LAW; "Cause and Effect" and the "Fate or Destiny" in the evolution of humans].
.14. Straightway leaped out, or exalted itself [man's distinct physical manifestation from the lower Planes of Being and Elements] from the downward-born Elements of God [the continuous downward manifestation of physical matter], the Word of God [active Universal Cosmic Law] into the clean and pure Workmanship of Nature, and was united to the Workman, Mind [humans and their surrounding environment of Nature], for it was Consubstantial; and so the downward born Elements of Nature were left without Reason [the lowering degrees of vibratory energy and the diminishing consciousness of atomic particles], that they might be the only Matter [The atomic composition of the Great Physical Plane as perceived and interpreted by the human Mind; the utilization of sensory perception of eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and skin, of the body (consciousness) to interact with the surrounding environment and other humans].  The loss of the body or disembodiment deprives a person, specifically, of "Conscious Life."  It is not a loss of Life because LIFE is perpetual and without discontinuity; it can never be lost.   It can only change the perception and experience of Conscious Life because it is subject to the Principle of RHYTHM.]

Recent Scientific Discovery Regarding The Universe and Dark MatterIs Physics and Astronomy Looking at "INFINITE SPIRIT" and ITS Creative Manifestation of the Physical Universe?


THE FARADAY CHAMBER PARTICLE EXPERIMENT
(Cambridge University)
An experiment was conducted by Cambridge University utilizing a lead shielded and airtight Faraday chamber to conduct a particle experiment.  In theory, if the internal chamber was pumped down to a vacuum environment such as in space and the temperature reduced to absolute zero (-460F), all particles should stop vibrating and there should be no energy present in the chamber.  What was discovered with their instrumentation is that the chamber contained an enormous amount of energy according to their experiment, so much of it, that if it were possible to fill the inside glass bulb of a 100 watt light, there would be sufficient energy to bring the Earth's oceans to a boiling point.  Now, imagine that the Universe is full of this free flowing energy.  How many 100 watt light bulbs do we need?  This experiment shows that there is an Omnipotent and Infinite presence in the Universe that is incalculable because our brain is too small and extremely limited in perceiving such an enormous presence.  The most brilliant of humans only utilize 10% of brain capacity while the rest of us may only utilize three or four percent.  Is it a wonder why most humans live in "unconsciousness," completely unaware of the reality they live in?  Could this gross lack of conscious awareness (mentally dormant) cause the problems we experience in our world?  How will we communicate with such a large non-local presence that does not display the physical features of the human body or any other body for that matter?  Talking to "thin air" is a definite no-no in science because there is no particular body to speak to.  Talking to thin air would be ridiculous to science; besides, there will be no response from the "thin air."  There will be no thundering voice coming out of the sky to answer the questions of a scientist or any other person.  That only exists in the imagination of the fundamentalists and their over-enthused testimonials.  Where do we go to speak to this "Infinite God?" The secret lays in the human consciousness to communicate with THE ALL because its unconditional presence and power is infused throughout the human body and is therefore the closest contact point within all of us.  
We can mentally speak to SPIRIT and it knows our needs even before we ask.  When asking, it means that we are aware of SPIRIT'S presence and we have focused our Minds in the direction of its presence and SPIRIT will respond to our communication, that is, if we are listening.  The response may come as an idea in our brains, a vision, a dream, or an unfolding event in our lives.  This type of response is far more advanced than the slow written or verbal communications because language only describes a thought, an event or object, and attempts to emulate advanced real time communications which can only occur mentally.  The SPIRIT'S response is in real time thoughts without the verbal communications of language that reach our ears to corrupt and muddle a Truth.  Once this is established, rapid advancement occurs because we can "see" what needs to be accomplished.  If we deny what we see, and we change it in our thoughts to something else, and we verbally communicate that lie, then have we lied against a Truth that will cause the Soul to freefall into the lower regions of human nature by its own choice and it eventually will fall below that of the animal plane and suffer greatly in its ignorance because it is unable to hold onto that Truth as its solid footing deteriorates and becomes lost.  Lies cannot occur in real-time communications because it comes from our Mind and our Mind is at-one with SPIRIT which cannot lie.  Verbal communications is an aspect of conscious awareness or the human body, and can be altered into a series of un-truths or lies with consequential results that are highly undesirable and destructive to the perpetrator of that lie.  The perpetrator can be a person, persons, community, government and country.  
All returns are awarded according to CAUSE AND EFFECT.  Some examples of destructive consequences: greed, lying, cheating, stealing, murdering, lying against the Truth, the bestial and rash treatment of humans towards other humans, increased human suffering because of corrupt and greedy corporate agendas, and others not yet mentioned....  All of these things occur in the watchful eye of SPIRIT and in time will bring increased instability to the world economies if a change in attitude does not occur.  The forces in Nature are also affected by these negative destructive vibrations that disrupt its operation in peaceful harmony and unity to make Life possible for us on our planet.  Our sun may be affected by the violence that occurs on this planet with increased solar activity and the increased appearance of large meteors moving with frightening velocity.  COSMIC LAW operates in such a manner that it will edit and remove the cause of inharmonious forces including suffering created by humans or any other entity that will disrupt the unity and harmony that operates the Universe.  COSMIC LAW always operates to restore balance in all things, even in human attitudes.  When this re-balancing occurs, it may not be a pleasant experience for humans as some will lose their Conscious Life in the process.  Remember that THE ALL is a spatial INFINITE LIVING MIND in whom we live, move, and have our being, that is not limited to the human consciousness or the finite brain capacity of humans.  It is imperative for the world to know GOD, as SPIRIT really is, not as what it is believed to be, if peace and unity is to be accomplished.  There are no alternatives....  As time goes by, more Knowledge will be available about the nature of INFINITE SPIRIT and an increased clarity of explanation is possible.

On June 30, 2001 a deep space probe named the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Base aboard a Delta II rocket.  The    purpose of the WMAP probe was to accomplish deep space research utilizing X-Ray Cameras to map the composition of The Universe.  Two years later the results were examined and is accurate to within 4% according to WMAP scientists.  Their findings are as follows:

DARK ENERGY - 73%
An extremely tenuous invisible energy that pervades all of universal space and is the cause of space itself.  It is an unexplainable baffling mystery to science.
"THE ALL is MIND; The Universe is Mental"
The Omnipresent; Omnipotent; Omniscient; SPIRIT of GOD
All that we are, and all that we see around us, is made of  SPIRIT itself....
 The indivisible AT-ONE-MENT of all things
DARK MATTER - 23%
The invisible powerful grip that keeps galaxies from flying apart as they rotate and generates the gravitational force to keep them in a cluster formation as they travel through space.COSMIC LAW at work in keeping Universal order; The WILL of INFINITE SPIRIT  Do we not stand in stupefied awe when we point our eyes and observatories skyward at night and observe the awesome power of black holes, quasars, galaxies, countless suns and worlds moving with unimaginable velocity through space?  Yet, it appears as though nothing is moving?
Is this not the work of the Great Architect and Designer of the Universe?
"Be advised, for who is more visible than He who made all things?"

PHYSICAL MATTER - 4%
The familiar particle or material world that we see with our eyes, as we live, move, and have our being within it.The Great Physical Plane
Our marvelous physical reality without consideration of mortal man's brutish activity


What does all this mean?  First, physical matter or the material world as we are able to perceive within our current state of consciousness consists of only four percentage points of the total reality of the Universe.  We are not even a 100% aware of our Physical World let alone the other 96% of invisible reality.  This is a scientific verification that our physical world (4%) comes from an invisible reality (96%), not apparent to human eyes.  This discovery led some scientists to wonder, "Is it science, or is it philosophy?"  "Are we looking at God?"  If science is beginning to wonder about this, the religions of the world should take notice and pay attention to the WMAP discovery.  It will help to know our Spiritual reality and bring unity to the diversity of religions when it is discovered that there is only ONE GOD.  KNOWLEDGE of the TRUTH brings UNITY, while the theoretical and hypothetical "beliefs" of GOD through varying religious belief systems will cause diversity and disagreements.  While diversity of religions may be a good thing in the views of most people, it must be understood that unity is not accomplished through diversity.  Each unique race culture may be diverse and is a marvelous thing and we can respect and enjoy each other's culture, but this does not work in the area of Spiritual KNOWLEDGE because it is non-material in nature and is a unifying power that can only be observed in the Human Mind.  Beliefs will always clash and cause hatred, war, violence, and bloodshed because it is intertwined with materialism.  We see the evidence and result of diversity in our world today in the form of clashes between religious beliefs, clashes that cause bloodshed and suffering.  Change will not occur overnight but can be quickened when the majority of humans make their own personal efforts to educate themselves in the reality of SPIRIT and how they are inescapably connected.  Their efforts will help to unify our diverse world that is submerged in ignorance.  Otherwise, change will be forced through the slowly and painful upward evolutionary process of trial and error.  Nothing can stand still in the cyclic rhythms of time.  The well spiritually informed person becomes a mover of the chessboard of LIFE instead of being a mere pawn that is moved about by forces stronger than themselves.  The person who lives like the pawn on the chessboard suffers from anxiety, depression, and may feel robbed of their essence when they are tossed to and fro.  Instead of seeking Spiritual Knowledge to advance upward and onward, they, instead, take a pill that may numb their senses.  
Is the WMAP discovery not the GOD that we live, move, and have our being in, the Absolute presence that is known as "THE ALL" to the ancient philosophers?  Only fragments of The Ancient Knowledge is available to us today and much of it has been muddled and corrupted by various religious beliefs that have appeared on the scene during the lapse of the ages.  This important WMAP discovery is not only Spiritual Knowledge but also one of scientific treatment.  This scientific discovery should convince the human race that there is a powerful presence in the entire Universe that eyes cannot see but can only be perceived by the human Mind that can see beyond the range of normal human vision.  Not only is it present in the entire Universe, but is also present within our earthly reality as well as within us and is responsible for the sustenance of all Life and living with entities occupying the entire scale of manifested LIFE, i.e. humans, animals, vegetation, minerals, etc.  It is important to see the difference in a God that people believe to exist in their own idea of the Creator such as a religious belief system and the true reality that is revealing its secrets through scientific research that is now unfolding the larger invisible reality that has been presented by WMAP.  In the past has scientific evidence forced religious conceptions and beliefs of God to change in the seventeenth century such as the Galileo incidence with the Catholic Church when the Italian astronomer Galileo, who, based on his own observation confirmed that the earth is not the center of the Universe or that it is flat.  This infuriated the church, which, by declaration made the earth the center of the universe and Galileo was kept under house arrest for his heretic ideas until he died.  Three hundred fifty years later Pope John Paul II exonerated Galileo as a heretic after an almost forgotten incident of the earlier Catholic Church.  It shows that organized religion can not continue to clutch to their dogmas and pet theories of believes that is counterproductive to the Spiritual advancement of the human race when they resist the flow of "constant change" that occur on a daily basis.  Constant change cannot be muted by the continuing ridged beliefs with the belief that evolution is not occurring or is non-existent.  Evolution is evident in all of Life or else history would not be possible and all of matter would stop vibrating.  Everything in the Universe would stop moving and time would stand still.  Upward advancement would not be possible and all humans would be trapped without the possibility of advancement or growth.  Some of the Christian denominations have sealed their membership in ignorance by saying that the bible is the only truth there is and thus the Creator in their concept is limited between the covers of their bible and they are unable to connect their bible to the greater reality we all live in.  Sadly, many of them have closed their minds because of the fear their denomination has instilled in them by telling them that anything outside of the bible is of the Devil.  This type of a denomination is in fact a cult and is self evident in their, mean, fanatical, self-righteous, and defensive behavior.  Further evidence will show that their walk becomes a superficial walk and underhandedness exists between the members of the church.  Their leaders fall by the wayside because of an unsustainable superficial walk that has taught them to take cognizance for the inherited tendencies of the early Christian doctrines and the middle age beliefs that stymies their onward and upward advancement.  This condition can prevent a religious member from recognizing a great Truth because of a theoretical belief for which they have taken premature cognizance rather than learning Spiritual Knowledge as it really is.  This is easily remedied when it is learned that it is best to keep an open Mind free of superstition that will allow the Divine inflow of Spiritual Knowledge and a grander vista is realized regarding the INFINITE CREATOR.   The Spiritually developed person knows that all of Life progresses upward as we can see in the advancement of technology in just a hundred years of history and denotes the rapidly advancing human Mind in its upward advancement through the cycles of evolution.  Nothing is allowed to stand still; that is true evolution.  Everything moves upward along the ascending scale of Life and its driving force is immutable.  The WMAP is an invention of the advancing human Mind through time and makes for an interesting historical contrast when compared with the horse and buggy days.  Imagine what an increasingly open Mind can do for the advancement of science and the Human race.  The learning process is "Infinite" and we will never stop learning, not even if we live to be a million years old and even then the Universe has still not run out of things for us to learn.  Only THE ALL does not learn anything because it is ABSOLUTE and INFINITE in presence.  Therefore is THE ALL not subject to the effects of evolution because THE ALL is the cause of evolution.  Everything that we see moves and vibrates and nothing stands still in the Universe but back of all these things is the underlying reality of THE ALL who by reason of its Absolute and Infinite stature does not move because there are no forces outside of itself that can move THE ALL, for there is no such thing as anything being outside of THE ALL, in All.
The WMAP discovery of the composition of the Universe should not surprise humans when encountering psychic phenomena, levitation, teleportation (traveling in the invisible), UFOs, aliens, ghosts, haunted houses, and other strange unexplained anomalies.  It is strange only because of our superstitious conditioned thinking and our lack of knowledge and understanding why such strange phenomena occur.  There is very little if any scientific research being done in these areas partially because science has no logical explanation for these things and they may not even know where to begin, or, they view it as hogwash.  In the hogwash state of Mind, much Knowledge will escape the grasp of the physicist but will be found again by another who will help the human race to advance further along.  Denial does not make that reality go away, because it defies for the most part scientific treatment.  It is easier to explain it away as a person's hysteria of mental delirium than it is to gather the facts and realistically do research.  Stranger phenomenon will appear in the near future as humans are becoming more advanced thinkers and they maintain an expanded mindset that enables them to see the unseen.  
Today's scientific discovery is more in line with the ancient Hermetic Philosophy than the modern day religious thoughts who believe in a Creator that exists between the covers of their bible or who only exists somewhere in the Universe and is not present within his creation.   If this is a truth, then their idea or belief cannot be applied to an Infinite Creator that is omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient, because its presence is limited and conditional in the Universe.  In this fashion has organized religious thought failed to comprehend the meaning of an "Infinite" and "Omnipotent" living Being whose existence is becoming increasingly evident and visible to the Human Mind and eyes.  A time will come that no man or woman can deny the existence of THE ALL as its presence will be known to all nations and they will stand in stupefied awe that such an enormous presence is even possible.  This Knowledge will be in the face of every human that walks on this planet.  The religious belief regarding a conditional and limited Creator allows the concept of duality that God is in heaven above and Satan is in hell below.  The concept of duality only works within the erring "beliefs" of a conditional and limited god that allows room for an entity such as the devil to exist in the same reality of the Universe.  This idea is false idea and is one of the reasons why Christianity is a divided religion and is at odds with the other religions of the world as well as science.  Science has difficulties with dualism because scientific observation of the Universe does not display a dualistic reality.  If a dualistic view of God is maintained, this allows for the superstitious belief that the Devil is a separate entity apart from God.  By definition of the "Infinite," this is not possible or else the meaning of "Infinite" must be redefined.  That does not change the Absolute Presence of God.  Moreover is our Earth the reference point that we use for determining where above is and where is below.  Outside of our reference of the planet that we live on, there is no reference that will determine where above or below is, only surrounding fathomless infinite space.   How then shall we determine where above is or below or where left or right is, without the Earth as our beginning reference point?  The presence of dark energy and dark matter does not provide references for dualist thinking because it is non-local in presence, meaning, everywhere present or "Omnipresent," not confined to any particular locality in Space and Time.  It is the absolute presence of "THE ALL."
Monotheism is more in line with the ancient Hermetic Philosophy that speaks of the one and only Infinite GOD with no edges or holes in space that leaves no room for a lower god such as the Devil as the dualists would like to believe.  Dualism will eventually fall by the wayside, as it becomes another unworkable relic of a Dark Age concept that is of no assistance to the human race.  This concept can only bring fear and superstition to the race consciousness and deepens the mystery of the reality of SPIRIT.  Duality will increase the rift between religions, as each religion will invent their own superstitious beliefs that make it impossible to silently observe the ONE GOD.  It can be compared to the worshipping of the golden calf during the time of Moses when he brought the Ten Commandments that were received on the mountain.  The people of his time did not know what to do while Moses was absent from them and they created the golden calf so that they have something to worship and look up to.  That is about as ludicrous as it gets.  Today's divided religions can be compared to the worshipping of that golden calf that is invented and created by mankind's beliefs and resulting superstitions that failed to unify the human race but to bring continuous discontent, hatred, bloodshed, and war.  Unity cannot be accomplished through the varying beliefs that divide, but through the Knowledge of The TRUTH.
Humanity is groping and struggling in their search for a meaning to Life in the midst of a crisis of hatred, war, bloodshed, and misinformation that caused humanity to be moved about like pawns on the chessboard of Life with nothing solid to anchor them to.  Many adults and children throughout the world are freefalling because of this state of consciousness.  They have no source of Spiritual Knowledge to draw from.  Much of that is available to the human race are in the hands of egocentric humans who do not promote knowledge of THE ALL, but to cater to their own vanity and for profit.  Because of this are they easily miss-informed and miss-led by leaders who impose their own beliefs and who are ignorant themselves.  Blind leaders of the blind, they all fall into the same ditch of perdition.  Today, unchanging and rigid religious beliefs have been inadequate to assist humans in a meaningful and lasting walk through Life in a constantly changing world, particularly when their religious leaders, the ones they look up to and trust, fall by the wayside because of a stray walk in the dark side of Human Nature and causing their membership to lose their footing and freefalling in betrayal.  Every human can stray into the lower parts and pits of Human Nature, without exception, if a person chooses to do so, no matter how respectful and trusting their appearance.  This is why well-respected people such as celebrities, politicians, religious leaders, can fall by the wayside by a simple erring choice in their behavior and is followed by the consequences of CAUSE AND EFFECT.  These events occur billions of times each day with humans not recognizing the consequences of their action until it is too late.  For some on one end of the scale it is easy to correct a minor error while the person who commits a foolish heinous act at the opposite end becomes endangered with disembodiment which will instantly end everything for that person, at least on this side of reality.  The true reason for disembodiment will only be known to SPIRIT who is the creator of LIFE and maintains a watchful eye on every human.  This SPIRIT of THE ALL will always be present even when the Earth and humans have passed from the scene by the forces of change.  It is advised that all that is read on this website must become your own personal experience from within yourself, in your own quiet space, so that you can observe these things for yourself and not rely only on the external impressions of information that can be misleading.  Always see the Truth for yourself and learn to understand and trust the reality of SPIRIT.  It is your greatest source of immovable Knowledge that can provide you with a "solid rock" foundation that cannot change through the changes of time or the external turmoil of the world.  The question of whether or not you believe in GOD is not an issue for you because you know that you KNOW.  The reason why we must learn true forgiveness is because we are all, without exception, capable of straying into the dark side of Human Nature if we choose to do so.  To think otherwise can cause hypocrisy to appear in your life by burdening yourself with trying to look good in public and forgetting that you are subject to all the enmities of Human Nature when not Spiritually developed.  The public can be unforgiving in their hypocritical self-righteous condemnation of other humans as they themselves are subject to the sways of their dark side often forgetting the teachings of Jesus who said, "Judge not lest you become judged."  Many of them live in a Pandora's box like situation with the relentless swaying forces of external world turmoil that causes anger, hatred, and anxiety and then suffer the effects of their own lack of thoughtful acts.  They have not yet developed their silent space and learning to meditate and acquire the art of forgiveness except by the noise of their speech.  The rigid unforgiving person who is unable to forgive another stands in danger of judgment by their own CAUSE AND EFFECT because SPIRIT knows that the rigid unforgiving person is also capable of straying into the dark side of Human Nature who will likewise be judged by the same measure they measured to others in their stray walk.  
Research into the reality of ghosts, haunted houses, and other unexplainable anomalies may be eerie at first but as discoveries are made, a comfort zone of Knowledge and Wisdom will develop as we move out of superstition and we understand more of the "unseen" reality, the 96% of reality.  Most people are afraid of ghosts but need to be reminded that they themselves are Spirit in nature or "ghosts" --"embodied ghosts," to be exact.  There are aspects of Human Nature that are not subject to entropy or decay and therefore not subject to the cyclic evolution of embodiment and disembodiment, the life, death, and rebirthing process.  Therefore can the appearance of an apparition not be considered "dead" and we try to avoid experiencing it by burying our heads in sand?  That does not make them go away.  They are very much alive and real.  Because of the Nature of the Universe, "death" as we humans believe is not possible but is in truth the "constant change" that we experience.  In this constant change all things come and go in our lives and there is no permanence.  We are not even able to hold on to our bodies or keep our material possessions, or hold on to our physical relationships as husbands and wives, children, brothers and sisters, or friendships because there is no permanence to these things in Life.  The more we should learn to appreciate each other that while we are in a momentary window of conscious Life that will eventually terminate and so we become the wandering ghosts until we go to sleep in the SPIRIT of GOD and awaken in another time.  Do not be despaired because nothing is lost, at least, as long as there is a GOD.  This is the reason why it is of utmost importance in a Human Life to know GOD.  It is the only solid option in the reality of our lives; there is no alternative to the reality of THE ALL.  If a person disembodies as a decent human, they are decent still.  If a person dies as a murderer that person is a murderer still but who is unable to continue his or her evil ambitions that make for a miserable human who feels trapped while straddling two mental planes of reality.   Miserable disembodied humans who are tortured by their own ignorance but who are unable to die again to obtain relief from their virtual mental hell.  These are the virtual burning fires of the mental hell that are written in the scriptures and are not the assumed hellfire and brimstone that organized religion taught us.  It is of a very intense nature when there is no body present to help relief suffering through tears or other physical expression such as pain.  All this occurs within their Mentalism but is very real to them while they are in a learning session in the presence of SPIRIT, the result of a stray choice in Life without realizing the consequences of CAUSE AND EFFECT.  This person has no anchor and freefalls in the disembodied state by his or her own choice during physical Life.  It is not a good disembodied experience to find one in.  The person is still very much alive but lacks a body and vocal chords for verbal communications and is unable to communicate properly or express him or herself as they did in physical Life.  At no time are they in a dead state of being, as this is not possible.  When this is not understood, it can cause odd and scary situations between embodied and disembodied humans when physical humans are unable to understand for the lack of Knowledge and because it defies normal human vision and behavior.  Crawling deeper under the blankets is of no avail and is only a temporary relief in the human psyche with the belief that the blanket will protect them.  Therefore, can we not trust our eyesight with the belief that what we can see with our eyes is all there is to see in our physical world (4%)?  There still is the unknown and mysterious reality of 96% that is SPIRIT in nature.  Much more Knowledge needs to be obtained from The SPIRIT of THE ALL....The ancient Hermetic axiom echoes through the ages; "As above so below; as below so above."
The acquisition of knowledge regarding ghosts and haunted houses should not be left to Hollywood sensationalism that acts upon fear and who are venturing into the unknown reality with inadequate training in Spiritual Knowledge and thus scare the public deeper into ignorant and superstitious beliefs that organized religion will capitalize on with "I told you so."  Religious ceremonies with the belief of casting out devils and demons are of no avail because it is based on superstition rather than on the Knowledge Truth.  The "ghost," so called, is likely to become angry because of ignorance and the religious superstitions of physical humans.  The spirit entity is still able to some degree remember what his or her religion has taught them during physical Life and then finding themselves in a reality that may be completely contrary to their religious training.  This can cause confusion and anxiety in the ghost who may not understand the reality they find themselves in or what is happening to them.  They may not be able to comprehend why humans react with fear when they attempt to communicate with them.  What would happen when we react with fear to a loved one who has just disembodied a few days ago?  Will this person not express anxiety and despair and feel abandoned while being in their disembodied state?  The church has taught us that we will be with Jesus in heaven without stopping and thinking for a moment whether or not this is a Truth?  Even, when they think it is in their bible that is full of allegories and its truths and un-truths are hidden from most people.  "The letter kills, but the Spirit makes it alive."  Only SPIRIT can tell us what is Truth and which is an untruth.  There is a large amount of materialism connected to this belief like the pearly gates, streets and mansions made of solid gold that shines brightly in sunlight, sitting on silken couches with nothing to do?  How long this last before boredom will takes places and they go back to grabbing each other by the throat because there is nothing to do or think about?  Will the Catholics, Protestants, Episcopalians, Pentecostals, Seventh Day Adventists, and others not mentioned have their own religious district in heaven as they do on Earth because they cannot get along with each other?  All the pearls, gold, silk, or change in their environment will not solve their disunity.  If it cannot be solved on this Earth, it cannot be solved in heaven.  "The Earth is our school and it is here that we overcome the lower parts of human nature.  There are no instant free rides to become the Masters, sages, and adepts, in Spiritual Knowledge in whose vocabulary "boredom" and "violence" does not exist.  They are worthy of their title because of their own efforts and actions to Know THE ALL.  They are the keepers of the hidden secrets and meanings of LIFE.  They are for the most part non-existent to the world because they do not belong to our Plane of Life and Being but can manifest themselves and appear any place at any time for any reason of their own digression and will.  They rule on their own Plane and the lower planes of being but are always subservient to the Causation of the Higher Planes.   They are there because they have taken the effort to advance and are committed to educate themselves regarding the reality of THE ALL as they KNOW it, or God, as we believe it.  Compare this with the mundane things that humans do in their warring efforts.  Is it a wonder that the world at the moment is in shambles?  Most humans do not even understand what a plane of being is.  It is not a place of measurable physical dimensions and there is more to it than a state of Mind.  Most people are unable to understand their own reality of mundane living and so they live as a working, eating, and sleeping creature of habits.  Then, where is the answer to Unity if not by the Knowledge of the SPIRIT OF GOD, THE ALL in All?
Ghosts or Astral bodies in the absence of physical mass do not have to walk through open doors or climb a staircase to enter a room or an addict.  They do not carry the physical mass that we physical humans possess.  They simply go through physical objects as if it is non-existent.  The laws and rules of gravitation or physicality do not apply to them.  Physical humans cannot go through walls without smashing their physical selves into a wall and cause physical injury or damage to their bodies.  This is not the case with disembodied humans or "ghosts" or any other invisible entity that is not necessarily evil when present.   In order for physical humans to go through walls, their physical mass will have to dematerialize, a rising of vibratory energy; to change the physics of their physical mass like the Masters and adepts who are keepers of the Knowledge.  The Knowledge and Wisdom that enables the mastery of one-self to enter the reality of Immortality that is devoid of decay.  The Astral bodies of humans have nothing to dematerialize because they have lost their physical mass during disembodiment.  Albert Einstein made a profound statement regarding the reality of matter and energy when he said, "Matter and Energy is exchangeable, not distinct."  Because all of physical matter is pushed outward from the energy field, it is a process of manifestation that is accomplished by the Wisdom of The INFINITE CREATOR as directed by the effort of its WILL.  Therefore can matter be exchanged back into that energy field where it came from in the first place through the focused will of the informed Mind.  In this way is matter exchanged for energy and thus a person becomes "invisible" and is not the same as being disembodied such as physical death.  The loss of the body in the aging process is caused by the lack of Knowledge and Wisdom while the dematerialization of the body is a deliberate effort of the will of the Knowledgeable and well-informed Master.  The Master will utilize THE LAW to his or her advantage while the person who wanders through Life in ignorance becomes a subject of THE LAW and terminates in disembodiment.  The Master will retain the consciousness of their bodily mass while suspending it in a pure state of energy devoid of physicality.  Energy cannot destroy energy.  They can retain their bodily consciousness for an indefinite period of time and re-materialize at will.  It may be a very strange way to explain the reality of the Universe in which we live, move, and have our being and at times may rattle our senses when we first become aware of the reality of SPIRIT.  There are even more bizarre things that exist that cause this author to shudder in awe when examining these things with the Mind's eye that are seemingly intangible and unreachable.  We can rest assured that the majority of our reality is "invisible" to normal human vision and when we focus our Minds upon this reality and we view it with our Mind's eye, a response of SPIRIT is experienced and SPIRIT will guide us into regions of THE MIND that would otherwise remain hidden and unknowable.   It is the only way for us not to become deceived by mundane religious rhetoric.  It must be your own experience with SPIRIT.  
Understanding this reality and utilizing it can put the airlines out of business as well as the evil ambitions of the terrorists.  It may be a far-fetched idea to us but is not impossible to the well informed Master.   The person who takes possession of this knowledge can even see the evil ambitions in the future before it occurs in great detail because of the way that the Universe is composed and we can use it to our advantage to help others who are seeking Knowledge.  The power of healing comes from this area of Life because of the enormous presence of Infinite Life and Energy when it becomes KNOWN how to use it properly.  Powerful anomalies can appear on the scene that can defy scientific treatment and baffle medical science.  Even in Jesus' day were the scholars unable to explain the healing of a blind man or the re-calling of a disembodied Soul such as Lazarus.
There are no alternatives, anymore, than the world can deviate from the mathematical rules of equations to conduct scientific research and commerce in a unified manner around the globe.  The rules of mathematics are what make equations work and no person will argue with the rules that govern these.  No war will be fought over mathematical rules.... it is the same in the reality of SPIRIT and Human interaction with THE ALL.  Therefore, is any given organized religion only a label of tradition and culture that are the only available sources of believes the human race is able to choose from, while that which is SPIRIT remains hidden from view until it is recognized and upward progress is accelerated.  When this is recognized, there will be no need for disagreements between the religions of the world because of the recognition of the Universal Principles that govern the Human Mind and all of Life.  These rules will bring true unity to humanity and Universal Cosmic Law will cause abundance in all levels of society.  All of world society will utilize these Principles to their advantage and "proper" wealth and prosperity will prevail, --unimaginable wealth and prosperity.  They would have learned to use THE LAW to their advantage.  However,  until that reality is recognized, the human race will be a subject of THE LAW and they will continue to travail and sway between war and peace, wealth and poverty, love and hate, generosity and greed, etc., as the cyclic Principles of RHYTHM and CAUSE AND EFFECT moves them through the upward advancement of Evolution.  Those who are Spiritually advanced will suffer far less than those who choose ignorance, arrogance, and guile, in their flippant ways and they will severely suffer gnash their teeth and curse GOD in their ignorance.  Unbeknownst to them, SPIRIT is unreachable in their flippant ways as they role and drown in their own disgusting cesspool of ignorance and suffering until they disembody.  Yet, SPIRIT will cradle them and care for them while in their disembodied state.   This is the  deep unconditional LOVE of SPIRIT for the Human Race and all other Life forms that exist in the Universe while a few fanatics in the organized religions of the world speak of "punishment," brimstone, and hellfire, upon the Human Race while gazing at the sky for their salvation.  They know NOTHING about SPIRIT....

The religions of the world have been around for thousands of years.... yet, war and violence are still prevalent because of disagreements of believes such as we have witnessed in the Middle East .  All religions in the world have varying degrees of disagreements amongst themselves and are the reason for the various divisions and denominations that are unable to agree on anything.  No religion is exempt.  This is evident, to the observant person who cares, and who pays attention, that there is a lack of unity within all religions and between the religions of the world to the point that war and violence erupts between them.    There is a hesitance to address this issue because there is a lack of Knowledge regarding the existence of INFINITE SPIRIT and therefore no rhyme or reason to bring unity amongst the disunited and dysfunctional religions of the world.  Each religious belief system is isolated from the other religions resulting in disagreements that lead to violence and war.   There is the wicked ethnic cleansing amongst some of the religions that is a very great evil and violates Cosmic Law while thinking that they are in favor of God.  The person who falls off the bar stool while being drunk is better off then those who murder and kill in the name of God.  Then, are there people in the world who will contribute to this disunity because of their lack of Knowledge.  They will help, contribute, and exasperate hatred and the problem of disunity because of their gross ignorance (stupidity).  There are no nice diplomatic words to describe the evil wickedness of these people who have sunk very low in the scale of Life, even below the Mental Plane of the brutish animals in Nature who are un-blamable for following their passions.  These humans have no direction in Life but to kill and maim other humans who do not belong to their belief system.  They have no direction in Life but to contemplate killing and murdering for a living while believing that they are doing it in the name of God and is therefore justified.  If the reality of Satan was real, they would be the Devil's minions.  They have no idea or concept that they are being tortured by their own hellish thoughts.  Their children will follow them in their footsteps and prolonging the torturous road of evolution because they are unable to recognize the dilemma and predicament they are in.  It may take centuries of evolutionary change if they are unable to make a quantum leap forward by recognizing their predicament and transmuting their thoughts into a positive and constructive contribution to humanity’s upward struggle and meaning to Life.  The religions of the world are inadequate to bring unity to a diverse human race because there is a lack of support by the central hub of SPIRIT Principles that remains unrecognized and hidden from view because of the theoretical belief systems of the world, “Is there a God?”  What religion has contributed to the recognition of the reality of SPIRIT except to lead humanity into the blind alleys of beliefs, symbols, dogmas, ceremony, traditions, and cults?  Most religions have clutched to these things for thousands of years without one iota of upward progress.  They have barely come out of their Dark Age conceptions in the lapse of the centuries while they clutched and attached themselves to their blind alleys and keeping humanity ignorant regarding SPIRIT.  How will they expect to bring unity and harmony to a diverse human race?  Would it not be sensible to discover the true nature of SPIRIT which is evident in the central hub of principles that form the framework of the Universe?  Instead of theoretical beliefs that caused the world to wonder whether or not God exists?  These things must be addressed before Unity and Harmony can be accomplished.  Ignoring this will prolong the torturous upward evolutionary road to Unity and Harmony which Nature is SPIRIT.
Governments of the world operate on the same principle of mistrust for one another and often contributing to disunity and disharmony because there is no central hub of principles for them to follow and to unite them.  They build weapons of mass destruction to protect and defend themselves and their turf from each other (just like religious beliefs) without realizing that the underlying principle of this concept is "fear."  However, "fear" has a "father" and that father is "ignorance."  The ancient Egyptian philosopher Hermes Trismegistus said, "The greatest evil under the sun is not knowing GOD."  This is the bottom line of all problems.  The human concept of one world government will fail when there is no Spiritual Knowledge to unite them because politicians have no source of proper ethics other than the varying religions they belong to or in their self-made intellectual concept.  Both are inadequate sources of proper ethics and are therefore unsustainable in their work.  Both of these concepts have been inadequate for the world politicians who are the stewards of government in the proper administration of government and law.  Many have strayed into corruption and underhandedness and thinking that they are unknowable.  Some are caught and brought to justice.  While others who are not caught will not escape the Mental Laws of Human Nature to which they are immutably and inseparably bound through the Chakra System and glands of their body that affects their health. Their self made conceptions of ethics are unable to sustain their political walk in a proper manner.  It is the same for the religious leaders, the CEO and president of a company or a large corporation.  All are subject to the Mental Laws of SPIRIT.  SPIRIT is not confined to any religious beliefs or self-made concept of ethics or any government in the world.  The weapons of mass destruction are miniscule compared the existence of unseen forces in our earth and solar system.  Do not be deceived by your eyes or beliefs.  We have already seen a small example of this in the Banda Ace earthquake.  There are many other triggers staged in other parts of the world and our solar system.  Therefore, is unity of Mind of utmost importance in humanity if we are to defuse these triggers and preventing them from turning into apocalyptic massive destructions with unimaginable loss of human lives.  These forces do not distinguish one country from another.
Together, in unity we are powerful and we can nurture and enforce each other and work in unity with the forces of Nature that is an extension of Human Consciousness.  Remember the mental nature of the Universe.  We can greatly influence the outcome of our future and of our children.  We must take proper stewardship and responsibility for our conduct and how we view one another.  Resist the temptation of being dishonest, underhanded, hateful, murderous, and being profane and arrogant.  These conceptions contribute to massive destruction.  All these things are observed by the invisible forces in Nature which you will remember is an extension of Human Consciousness.  What we choose will make a difference in our survival.  Other methods may be tried but will fail and only lead to another blind alley that contributes to increasing conceptions of disunity.
We live upon the Earth with purpose and we are known to SPIRIT but we must remember that the Earth is a miniscule dust particle when compared to the celestial bodies of the visible Universe or even our own galaxy.  If the composition of the visible particle Universe is only 4%, then imagine how miniscule our particle perception is of our Earth.  We don’t even know everything about our own planet let alone the rest of the Universe.  We would only be able to perceive a small fraction of a percentage point of the total 4% of the visible Universe.  It can be compared to standing on the beach with a five liter bucket and trying to figure out how we can pour the ocean into it.
Can the power of Knowledge be utilized for evil and greedy purposes?  Well... yes if there is no God, but most likely not if there is a GOD.  We will always be compelled to abide by the LAWS and rules of the Universe if we are to survive the consequences of our personal responsibilities.  This Arcane Knowledge is reserved only for the advanced Master who has taken the effort and time within him or herself to seek the Wisdom of The SPIRIT OF LIFE and who attains the mental Mastery of him or herself.   To attempt this for selfish, greedy, and evil ambitions, can be damaging to the self.  It is like the story of the Tower of Babel in the scriptures when the human race of that time attempted to build a giant tower that will reach into heaven in order to reach God without understanding the physics of their reality.  They became confounded and confused which denotes a failed attempt of their ambitions to reach God.  The allegory of the cerebrums who protect the knowledge of the tree of Life of Good and Evil are the reason why most humans do not believe or are ignorant of this reality and is for a good reason that while they are ignorant because of unbelief, they are unable to utilize this hidden Knowledge for their evil and greedy ambitions.   In this way is ignorance bliss because they are unable to utilize this Knowledge for destruction.  If man should succeed to utilize this Knowledge for evil ambitions, the total decimation of the human race is guaranteed and there is nothing to worry about anymore except for a handful of humans who have attained self-mastery and who have momentarily stepped out of physical reality to escape the massive destruction by converting their physical bodies into the pure energy field of reality.  Because of their Mastery of the self, they have become Immortal humans who will rule entropy and eliminate the decay of their bodies and thy are the true inheritors of the earth as they will assist "mother nature" in the balance and regeneration of her earthly elements and once again LIFE will sprout from her bosom because she, herself, is a living entity of LIFE.  Although, the Master is unable to mute the process of entropy they have escaped its process to a high degree by rising to the plane above by their highly evolved Mental states and impose their powerful will upon the self and their surrounding environment.   This is the mastery of the self unlike the undisciplined race consciousness that is moved about like the pawns on the chessboard of Life and is tossed to and fro by forces they are unable to govern and rule because of the lack of Knowledge.  There is no one to teach them how or they may not be interested.  The question "Do you believe in God?" is not an issue for them because they see and know for themselves the reality of THE ALL.  They have acquired this through KNOWLEDGE.  Knowledge is always the key to advancement and is true of the developing Spiritual man or woman as well as those who are in the educational system in the acquisition of intellectual knowledge.  Dedicated learning of Knowledge is always the key to attainment and success, while the ignorant is always found in wanton and wanders in the dark recesses of their consciousness and going nowhere.
There are five different bibles available to the public including the widely recognized King James Version, which most likely has Shakespearean influence in the writings, particularly in the Book of Psalm.  King James and Shakespeare were good friends because of their love of literature.  Shakespeare wanted to give himself credit for assisting King James in the writing of the bible but King James forbade him to do so.  It is neither right nor wrong to read the bible but it is important to realize that the reality of the manifested Universe is so enormous that there would not be enough paper in our world today to write about it.  To keep The INFINITE GOD limited between the covers of the bible is a gross mistake that will perpetuate and deepen the lack of unity in the Christian religion because the bible, for the most part, is a historical record that depicts the good and evils that humans commit to this day and the rules for their ethical behavior toward each other and to some degree piety towards GOD.  However, it fails explain the deeper underlying reality of THE INFINITE CREATOR.  The Hermetic Philosophy is the root of all religions as all religions through time have borrowed from the ancient Knowledge and Wisdom and modifying the Knowledge to befit their own beliefs that has been accepted and acted upon to this day.  The original Knowledge having been corrupted and lost in the lapse of the ages and bringing division amongst all religions of the world which is the primary cause of war and violence today.  There is an awakening process occurring today that will return the uncorrupted ancient Knowledge and Wisdom and the race will eventually discard their corrupted pet beliefs that has brought disunity as they become awakened and see the truth for themselves.  THE ALL will increasingly reveal itself through scientific discovery and the chosen few who have made the effort of knowing GOD instead of relying on the belief systems of the world.   Every nation on this planet will bend their knees and bow to The CREATOR with deep awe and respect when they realize its enormous presence with the Universe and us.  All religions will be silenced because there is nothing to argue about but to observe THE CREATOR in all his Glory.  This event will change the societal infrastructure of this planet and true peace, unity and untold prosperity will prevail on the Earth.   The more Humans keep an open Mind the quicker it will manifest.
Today, the same evils are committed because the human race, for the most part, has no knowledge of the unifying power of The SEVEN PRINCIPLES that rules the reality they live in and to give them guidance and a compelling reason why a deep respect for Nature and the Universe must be realized.  Moreover, the bible has been corrupted by religious imposters who have imposed their own written beliefs in the last two thousand years and causing disunity within their membership who blindly call the bible "The Word of God" without investigating the underlying reality of the Truth regarding the corruption of the bible. This is not to mention important Spiritual information that has been deliberately withheld by some of the divisions in the Christian religions who may have discarded and archived information while attempting to maintain unity and control in the church during the last two thousand years of negotiations of the Council of churches.  This has caused the Christian religion to become divided into Catholics, Protestants, Episcopalians, Pentecostals, and others not mentioned, because of disagreements in their fundamental beliefs.  Few, if any, will sit with each other in the same church.  Even if they did manage to sit in the same church together, there will be an underlying feeling of awkwardness, animosity and disunity because of a fundamental difference in beliefs and the lack of unifying Spiritual Principles that are not written by man's hand that can bring unity in awe and wonder.  The true meaning of the living "Word of GOD" lays in the Seven Principles that exists within every human without exception or exclusion and is manifested and suffused through the seven major Chakra systems and through the seven master glands that makes our animated physical bodies possible.  Man and Woman is the product of "The Word of GOD," The true Word of the GREAT CREATOR written within the being of every Human and who are inseparably fused to UNIVERSAL COSMIC LAW that makes us inescapably and unconditionally responsible for our actions and behavior towards all humans and all of Nature.  There is no need for the bearded old man to strike us with a bold of lightning from his scepter every time we do something wrong because we have something that is similar to an electric dog collar within us that will remind us when we step out of bounds.  Hopefully, we can recognize the warnings before harm or sudden destruction of ourselves occurs.
An observant person can see the Truth on their own and find the answer if he or she will but look that the true meaning of The Devil that is in fact the dark and evil side of the Human Nature.  All of us have the ability of committing evil if we choose to go there.  We see and read about the atrocities that are committed in the Middle East and around the world today.  The SPIRIT of THE ALL is not asleep and is aware of all these things even before any of us were born and rules the elements and particles in all of Nature and the Universe.  It is not about "the devil made me do it," and to use Satan as an excuse and scapegoat to escape responsibility for our maliciousness, theft, murder, atrocities, war, and underhandedness.  It is a superstition, a farce and a cop out of our responsibilities to believe that Satan did it.  It is far more serious then this.  We have not been given a satanic devil to utilize as a scapegoat for our evils, but the SEVEN PRINCIPLES of COSMIC LAW, the Ethereal LAW that transcends the ten commandments of human ethics and behavior and holding us responsible for what we choose in Life.  We will always be personally responsible for our behavior towards all living entities on our planet, especially toward other humans and is not without the consequential outcome of CAUSE AND EFFECT.  COSMIC LAW rules the geological behavior of our earth as well as the race consciousness of this planet.  Because of The Seven Principles are the two aspects intertwined and interwoven into the fabric of human consciousness, because, of the Mental Nature of the Universe.  It can be easily seen that when the majority of humans, regardless of country or race become evil in their greedy selfish and murderous ambitions that is contrary to human freedom, decency, and respect it can bring a disturbance and cause a disarray in the elements of nature and trigger earthquakes, tidal waves, and landslides.  Banda Aceh inIndonesia is an example of this where human atrocities of indiscriminate murder and beheadings have taken place and parading the decapitated heads on top of motor vehicles.  To them GOD does not exist.  A devastating earthquake struck them in 2004.  If we examine the other countries that have been devastated by the same tidal wave and examine their history, a pattern of human injustice will emerge.  The Middle East is no exception.  They are still in a time frame of opportunity to correct their errors....  Is God punishing them with a devastating earthquake?  No person is punished by GOD except by the person's own CAUSATION with the consequential EFFECTS of his or her choices.  Not much is known in the world today about this at the moment but there is an awakening process taking place that will be of great help to the Human Race.  There is nothing worse than to ignorantly perpetuate CAUSE AND EFFECT in our lives and then suffer the consequences of our own actions without ever knowing why.  CAUSE AND EFFECT is imbued in our personal Nature and the Nature of the Universe.  It does not take an "external" god to bring punishment.  It is all within all of us regardless of beliefs, skin color, or race.
If the supposed global warming is not caused by a natural cyclic process of nature, then are we humans responsible for bringing the elements into disarray and there are consequences to be harvested from this.  COSMIC LAW is about assuming the proper stewardship and responsibility for a planet that we live on and is our traveling floating biosphere in space.  Any responsible or irresponsible act that we commit against nature and against each other will be gracefully returned to each of us by CAUSE AND EFFECT.   Remember, our physical world is not as material as we believe that it is even if we can see it with our eyes.  WMAP proved it!

The deliberate dissemination of misinformation or deliberate withholding of Truth is counterproductive to the advancement of the Human Race and is not without consequence for the perpetrators who dwell in a mental world of lying fantasies and hiding in the dark side of human nature while developing their secret agendas and thinking that they are not seen?  They are only prolonging the dark age of ignorance and perpetuate the suffering of the Human Race who are groping and searching for an answer to the meaning of LIFE.  Most organized religions in our world today have failed to promulgate the Truth as we see the sad shape that our civilization is in today.   Why?  Because, of an unknown obscure and enigmatic Knowledge regarding the true reality of GOD?  There are plenty of disagreeing diverse beliefs and belief systems and no unifying Knowledge of Truth.  It is that simple.  When a religion does not have the Knowledge of GOD, their superficial religious ceremonies and rituals becomes a meaningless, fanatical, and awkward walk thru life.  There can be no unity within a religion or between religions because of the lack of a unifying centralized Knowledge that is not based on beliefs, but is based upon firmly established Principles that are not of man's invention or ideas that unifies the diversity of all religions.  All religions can share the same Knowledge of THE ALL and the religion of each nation celebrates their unique race culture.  In this way can mutual respect be accomplish as we can enjoy each other's culture and learn from each other and speak of ONE GOD whose presence is observed in the unseen Cosmic Energy and Principles.  As long as this is not recognized and there is an unwillingness to work together, the diversity of religions will continue, as will the disagreements and the bloodshed of wars on our planet.  It is no different than to abide by the principles of mathematics that make equations workable.  The entire human race is compelled to abide by these mathematical principles regardless of country or beliefs that make world commerce possible in unity and without argument and so it is with the Seven Universal Principles of LIFE from where all laws and rules emerge.  Imagine for a moment that we utilize the rules of mathematics in the same format as varying religious beliefs instead of Knowledge, would there not be arguments and disagreement and all parties will reach for their technological equalizers of destruction to enforce and convince the other guy who is right?  No country or government can replace the CREATOR in bringing everlasting unity to the world because all countries and governments are operated by mortal humans who lack longevity and their ideas are non-enduring that will eventually follow them to their graves and ending their ambitions in history.  Only perpetual change will continue to drive humanity upwards and onwards through the evolution of time and is driven by an immutable eternal and everlasting power that itself is immutable and unchangeable and is known to the ancient philosophers as, "THE ALL."   Perhaps, today's physicists observe it as a "dark cosmological energy" that is a baffling mystery to them, an unexplainable enigma.
All of humanity should be wary of all religious leaders and observe the fruits of their work that will tell you what kind of fruit tree they are growing.  Not all religious fruit trees are benevolent to humanity.  If they are fanatical, combative, destructive, and self-righteous, they are operating a religious cult not worthy of the name religion.  The cult of satanic worshipping is an offshoot of the Christian religion because of their dualistic views about God.  Devil worshipping is in fact a superstition, an empty religion that holds no substance in reality except to be feared by those who abide in any superstitious religious belief system.  There is a special place for cult leaders and their followers in the war torn regions of self inflicted mental anguish.  That place is the mental hell of fire and brimstone that one can read in their eyes and in the expression of their face.  They are immersed in their virtual mental hell and are unable to climb out of the pit.  They are unable to find peace, happiness, and prosperity for themselves and their children in their perpetual aimless cause.  They are mentally dead and their bodies will follow the mental road they paved when they experience the second death which is disembodiment and the final termination of physical Life.  There is no honor in giving one's Life to other people by destroying his or her own body of consciousness and violently murder those who struggle along their side to provide a living for their children and families.  These suicide killers will be enfolded within the dark forces of Nature because of an erring choice and their disembodiment will result in an unpleasant disembodying experience that is filled with the horror of others who have walked the same path before them and cursing those who follow by the same erring choices.  Many will, if they could, return to the Great Physical Plane and warn their brothers and sisters not to make the same mistakes they made.  Centuries of our time may pass before their errors are rectified, yet, in their plane it is only in the twinkling of an eye because of the absence of time.  The upward advancement is momentarily halted in this state of being because of the lack of Space and Time.  Without time, there can be no evolution, only the presence of pure Infinite SPIRIT.  Evolution denotes movement such as the birth, death and rebirth of a galaxy or solar system, a sun, or a planet.  Time is a relative measurement of such an event and is the upward and onward evolution of the Universe that also biologically affects humans living on the Earth.  Without such movement, time cannot exist and neither can evolution.  In our little corner of existence, we measure time by Earth time and is a miniscule measurement compared to cosmic time and is the reason why astronomers measure in light years when measuring the unimaginable distances between galaxies.  It is not possible to measure in kilometers or miles because the Human brain cannot work with such large numbers.  A mortal Human's Life can be measured in less than a fraction of a nano-second of cosmic time, at least, on our planet and is a momentary window of physical Life in the Human experience. 
The incremental measurements of time on another planet will be different than that of our Earth.  Because of this, is the measurement of time relative as well as the evolutionary advancement of all things.  A Martian day cannot be measured by the same measure as an  "Earth" day because of the difference in size and rotational velocity around its axes as well as the length of travel around the sun.  It is possible that this may have an impact on the Human Consciousness when traveling between the planets because the Human Consciousness is synchronized in harmony for the Earth's environment.   The Earth is an extension of Human Consciousness because of the mental nature of the Universe regardless of race.  Human consciousness is perfectly synchronized with the nature of our Earth but does not mean that it will be with Mars.  It may pose physiological difficulties and problems.  Does this mean that it is impossible to travel between planets?  No, it does not.  But the method of travel between planets can make a difference.  It is not only the  method of travel but also how well the Human Mind is established in Spiritual Knowledge to maintain mental and character stability when leaving the Earth's environment.  The space traveler cannot have personal problems or issues to deal with.  Remember, that the Universe is "Mental" and the condition of a person's Mentalism is greatly affected by the radical change in environment when traveling through space towards Mars for example.  So called alien Life forms have accomplished space travel but they may have evolved by millions of years to condition their physical bodies for space travel and is the reason why they look like the strange "aliens" to earthbound humans.  Their bodies have evolved to accommodate the dark space environment as the evolutionary process has endowed them with large eyes to gather sufficient light to see in the darkness of space.  Consequently, they will only appear on the dark side of the Earth as the sun will hurt their eyes.  Or, they may have the ability to step out of physical reality to avoid injury.  Their physical features would scare humans to insanity because of ignorance.  Humans are murdering and warring with each other because of the difference in beliefs and ethnics.  One race cannot get along with the other because of the difference in skin color for example.  How will they behave with alien life forms when they cannot even get along with each other because of skin color or other racial issues?  This indicates how primitive our civilization is even today.  We can not even keep our environment clean to maintain proper living conditions on our planet because of monetary greed.  It is better we clean up our environment then to have Nature do it for us.  There is also the question of where all the races on our planet came from?  Another interesting subject of research....
Can you the reader see the enormous presence of INFINITE LIVING MIND, or SPIRIT?  Compare this to the miniscule and meager existence of humans on this planet.  If the reader can observe this for yourself, you will find this to be a sobering and humbling experience and you will be awestruck at the same time.  If the reader can see this for him or herself, you are utilizing the Mind's eye (the brow chakra) to observe the Great Creator at work in manifesting the LIVING UNIVERSE.  This will be your own personal experience and proof of knowing INFINITE LIVING MIND or SPIRIT.  We cannot do this for another person anymore than we can digest their food for their benefit.  It is a personal undertaking.  If others can not believe this, it is because they are unable to utilize their Mind's eye and therefore can they only go as far as believing or not believing and depends on their degree of vanity and egotism.  This is why "beliefs" are extremely limited and can be either true or false, but once you can see this for yourself, it becomes KNOWLEDGE and you have opened the mental door of communications with SPIRIT.  When you become aware of SPIRIT, SPIRIT will respond to your observation.  This is what Hermes experienced and wrote about in his "Divine Pymander."  This was also my own personal experience that enabled me to "see" SPIRIT and connect the varying knowledges and discoveries by adding to the great puzzle of Truth.  If the puzzle is an untruth, the puzzle will not fit in the Tree of LIFE.  This experience caused me to write under the heading of "Ancient Knowledge and Wisdom of The Arcanum."  I was undecided for five years whether or not it should be written or published on the Internet because it is a sacred Knowledge.  The Knowledge is like a two edged sword that can cut in both directions because it is Universal in application.   My own growth was increased when I started writing about this Knowledge and sharing it on the Internet.  And, if I should err in my Life, I will always stand to be corrected and learn how to assist in the growth of the "Tree of LIFE" as "our" Consciousness continues to grow.  It is my sincere wish that Ancient Knowledge has been a help to you the reader, in a small and humble way, to assist you in your own advancement and that you may discover the true Knowledge and freedom of your own Mind.
If a lesson is not learned and applied, then one has to go through the experience of the lesson.

Is the Creator not imminent within His Creation?


THE KYBALION
(1912)
page 61-63
We see around us that which is called "Matter" which forms the physical foundation for all forms.  Is THE ALL merely matter?  Not at all!  Matter cannot manifest Life or Mind, and as Life and Mind are manifested in the Universe, THE ALL cannot be Matter, for nothing rises higher than its own source --nothing is ever manifested in an effect that is not in the cause --nothing is evolved as a consequent that is not involved as an antecedent.  And then Modern Science informs us that there is really no such thing as Matter --that we call Matter is merely "interrupted energy or force," that is, energy or force at a low rate of vibration.  As a recent writer has said "Matter has melted into Mystery.  Even Material Science has abandoned the theory of Matter, and now rests on the basis of "Energy."  Then is THE ALL mere Energy or Force?  Not Energy or Force as the materialists use the terms, for their energy and force are blind, mechanical things, devoid of Life and Mind.  Life and Mind can never evolve from blind Energy or Force, for the reason given a moment ago:  "Nothing can rise higher than its source --nothing is evolved unless it is involved --nothing manifests in the effect, unless it is in the cause."  And so THE ALL cannot be mere Energy or Force, for, if it were, then there would be no such things as Life and Mind in existence, and we know better than that, for we are Alive and using Mind to consider this very question and so are those who claim that Energy or Force is Everything.
What is there then higher than Matter or Energy that we know to be existent in the Universe?  LIFE AND MIND!  Life and Mind in all their varying degrees of unfoldment!  "Then," you ask, "do you mean to tell us that THE ALL is LIFE AND MIND!  Yes! and No! is our answer.  If you mean Life and Mind as we petty poor mortals know them, we say No!  THE ALL is not that!  "But what kind of Life and Mind do you mean? you ask.
The answer is "LIVING MIND, as far above that which mortals know by those words, as Life and Mind are higher than mechanical forces, or matter --INFINITE LIVING MIND as compared to finite Life and Mind.  We mean that which the illumined souls mean when they reverently pronounce the word; "SPIRIT!"  THE ALL is Infinite Living Mind --the Illumined call it SPIRIT!

THE LOWLY EARTHWORM
THE ALL is in the earth-worm, and yet the earth-worm is far from being THE ALL.  And still the wonder remains, that though the earth-worm exists merely as a lowly thing, created and having its being solely within the Mind of THE ALL–yet THE ALL is immanent in the earth-worm, and in the particles that go to make up the earthworm.  Can there be any greater mystery than this of “All in THE ALL; and THE ALL in All?”

WORLD COMMERCE AND THE PRINCIPLES OF RHYTHM AND CAUSE AND EFFECT
We experienced the collapse of the housing industry while engaging in the greedy shady transactions and secret agendas of financial institutions that caused a rapid increase in the price of homes while dishonestly collecting money to add to their wealth and hurting families who have lost their homes in the process.  The bottom line is the greedy causation of humans with tunnel vision.  Blame is the customary process with lots of finger pointing.  In the Christian view, would this be considered a "Christ Principle" or would it be an "anti-Christ Principle" that the financial institutions and certain individuals engaged themselves in?   Replay the event again in your own Mind and keenly observe.... then draw your own conclusions.  (Don't bother to look for a single individual as an anti-Christ because we all have engaged in anti-Christ behaviors in one form or another).

Another event in the works is the price of oil, as it continues to rise; it will be found that eventually that too will collapse by necessity as all things are subject to the Principle of RHYTHM.  The undesirable underlying cause of frenzied greed that denotes a godless mental driving force that denies the existence of The Principles of THE ALL and to deliberately induce pain to other humans will consequently be without solid foundation as it continues its path and is forced to slope downward.  This has already occurred with the evidence of the housing industry as prices continued to rise and the dishonesty of the financial institutions that suffered heavy losses while engaging in greedy transactions and hurting families in the process.  In other words, it does not have the backing of SPIRIT for this to continue and therefore it is an illusion that must collapse by necessity.   The same will occur with oil in the lapse of time. 

However, this lesson indicates that humanity is suffering from oil addiction that prevents them to see and develop the alternative unseen energy sources that are far greater than the energy that oil can provide.  Until man learns to cure their oil addictions, they will continue to be subject to the swing of the Pendulum as will the oil producing nations who are also vulnerable to the RHYTHMS of time.  They have perpetuated the Principle of CAUSE AND EFFECT in their tunnel vision of greed that can endanger them into extinction and destabilize a nation's or a world economy.  If changes are not made, the event will recycle with greater intensity until the collapse of an entire nation or a world economy tumbles down.  No nation on this planet is invulnerable.   None will escape the chessboard of Life ruled by immutable CAUSE AND EFFECT.
Examples of alternate non-depleting energy: Moving frictional parts kept apart by powerful repelling magnetic fields instead of oil with zero wear (requires the elimination of corporate and industrial greed).  Create a cage of magnetic fields to capture powerful forces of energy such as nuclear fusion instead of fission that releases no radiation, replacing gasoline.  Learning how to utilize the invisible realm for safe instant traveling would render oil, automobiles, and air travel obsolete.  It would take a physicist with a raised consciousness and a higher vision instead of one who walks the beaten path of traditional science.  Dare to be great without vanity!

Today we are witnessing the work of RHYTHM and CAUSE and EFFECT in the theater of global economics that is being manipulated by the few who are unaware of the consequences of their actions because of a lack of awareness that the Principles of Rhythm and Cause and Effect are real, if they will but learn to be more aware and observant.   It is a benevolent power when properly utilized in knowledge and awareness.  When it is wrongfully used because of ignorance, its destructive power can be extremely powerful of which no military power anywhere in the world can stop it because it is not an event of the material plane and no weapon of destruction can touch it.  Only the effects of the Principles are observed and felt in the material plane that we live in.  There is “no-thing” to destroy.
Remember, the connection of Cosmic Law to our Chakras?  All of us are immutably connected to each other through the seven major chakra system of our bodies because we are eternally and inseparably bound to SPIRIT who is LIFE and the LAW itself.  We as humans are responsible for our conduct towards each other because of the ethereal web of SPIRIT to which all of us are connected.  It does not matter what we believe or not believe.  We are at complete liberty to believe what we will.  Whether a given belief is based on a truth or not, is another matter.  The SPIRIT of GOD is no respecter of persons, of skin color, of ethnics, of beliefs, of religion, of country, or government.  There are worse things that can occur, than just the hiccups we experience in today's global economy.  Only two of the seven principles have been mentioned in this paragraph.  All seven principles, and all seven Chakras work synergistically in unison to which the endocrine glands of our bodies are connected and animates us in the consciousness of human experience.... how is it that we shall be separate or escape SPIRIT?  The Cosmic Principles are perpetual and is a living LAW that makes LIFE and the Universe possible.  The Cosmic Laws are perpetuated by SPIRIT and it is up to us how we conduct ourselves in Life as to how these seven Principles affect us.  Even, if it means the total destruction of humanity.  We make the choices and call the shots followed by the results of Cause and Effect.  This puts the responsibility squarely upon our shoulders.

The belief that God is separate from his creation is a fallacy that has been perpetuated for thousands of years by false belief systems that have been inherited with the assumption that it is a truth.  Today, we have caught up to it and the purging process is now in progress to eliminate human underhandedness, dishonesty, theft, rashness, arrogance, and being a fake human that is not without its consequences.  These are only a few occurrences that fall under the heading of "Anti-Christ" behaviors.  Anti-Christ means opposite to the teachings of Jesus, that is, if it is correctly viewed in Knowledge and Understanding.  Christ like behaviors are, "Love your neighbor as yourself."  "Do unto others as you would have them do to you."  "Forgive those who despitefully use you," Love your enemies."  Anti-Christ (opposite) behaviors are, "I will hate those who take advantage of me, and I will take revenge."  "Do to others before they do it to you." "Kill and murder those who use you and offend you and who do not agree with you."  As it can be seen, anti-Christ behaviors are far more subtle and widespread than is realized.  It exists in all levels of society and is ruled by the Principle of Polarity depending on the choices that are made in the scale of Polarity.  The Principle of Polarity manifests the "Heart Chakra," therefore, "Where a man's heart is, there is his treasure also."  The treasure can be positive or negative, good or bad, hateful or loving.  Therefore, can these things not be attached to a single individual as an "anti-Christ" because all humans without exception have participated in anti-Christ behaviors in one form or another.  This is what the Christian religion should be teaching.  Otherwise, it becomes a "Catch 22" situation by looking for a scapegoat as an "anti-Christ" that will never be found because it is inherent in all of us, the negative aspect of "Polarity"; the dark side of human nature to which all of us can gravitate if we choose to do so.  It is dangerous assumption to look for a single individual as an anti-Christ because it prevents a person from recognizing his or her own negativity in the choices they make.  The evidence of this is experienced in the dangerous situation of our global economy because of negative choices made by those who are greedy and dishonest.  This is an anti-Christ choice.  If these types of people attend church on Sunday to worship God and they behave in anti-Christ principles, these individuals are participating in the mockery of GOD (hypocrisy).  What do we suppose will happen to such individuals?  Will they not be the tares who are thrown into the fire for purification?  These are the ones who suffer the "fire and brimstone" of their own virtual mental hell and are forced to retrace their steps back to freedom.  "Not one jot or title shall pass away till all be fulfilled."  Therefore, must each of us maintain a constant vigilance in the awareness of our own thoughts and what choices we make, and what thoughts we might entertain, either within us, or the influence of the mental clouds of others in the environment surrounding us.  We have lived too long in our undisciplined thoughts and never recognizing why negative things come into our lives.  The negative things in our lives can only be solved when it is recognized, not by presumptuous self-denial....  Can you, the reader, see the connection for yourself?

The despicable and deplorable acts of the terrorists who were involved in the destruction of the twin towers in New York in the name of God is not without the consequences of CAUSE and EFFECT while they hide in the presence of Omnipresent SPIRIT as we will see in the lapse of time of the things that are to come.  In this presence of SPIRIT do they always stand in danger of being exposed and discovered because once a good or a bad CAUSE is manifested it becomes an irreversible permanent record of TRUTH that cannot be concealed or eradicated.  It can only be forgiven.  This is also the reason why criminals, sooner or later, always get caught because of the trail of Mental clouds they leave behind that can be traced to their secret locations. Humans who are involved in terrorism will be caught by the return swing of the pendulum in the Principle of RHYTHM and as time goes by, the terrorist becomes the terrorized as they will reap what they have sown.  The beginning of this evidence is in their consciousness in that they will be unable to practice a peaceful Mentalism within their own mind because of the choices they made and affects the encoding of their human genome.  Their visage bears witness of their actions in that it lacks a peaceful countenance.  The human genome is an aspect of consciousness (bodily presence) and is connected to the Seven Chakras and higher up in the scale of Life to SPIRIT itself of which most of it is unknowable in today's mass consciousness.
The "Divine Pymander" of Hermes states that if man chooses an evil and he or she unwittingly clutch to it while refusing to change, they will be left on their own to experience the greater evil (the avenging demon) as perpetual Cause and Effect will cause them to reap what they have sown.  The word "demon," in organized religion is believed to be minions of the devil but in truth is the experience of one's own wicked mind that causes the weirdness of their own state of consciousness.  This is a virtual mental hell that can drive a person into self-destruction as they are unable to see any hope in their lives.  They have erred by associating "holy" with "war."  "Holy" should never be associated with "war" as all wars are destructive and is a vexation to SPIRIT who created and manifested all of Life.  It is a profound error of beliefs.  In Polarity, holy or the state of being "whole" such as SPIRIT itself and "war" are at opposite ends of the poles.  War is a very lowly thing (negative) while the state of being holy or whole (positive) is at the opposite end of Polarity.  The two aspects cannot be associated with each other because of the difference in vibratory energy of events in the scale of Life.
On a deeper level are the twin towers symbols of great economic power that made America a wealthy and powerful nation because of her freedom that made it all possible.  Freedom allows the free thinking process that makes advanced technological innovations possible that would otherwise be difficult to obtain under an oppressive governmental system.  A country that practices true freedom is a generator of monetary wealth rather than a "money consumer."  The nations who have adopted freedom are also experiencing prosperity in their economies while the nations who misuse and abuse their "freedom" by utilizing it for ethnic and religious cleansing, murdering, and torturing their fellow man are stuck in the dark ages with a slow and painful advancement in their evolution.  Unbeknownst to them, all this occurs in the presence of SPIRIT.  They are unable to prosper because of their economic Pandora's Box.  Their monetary system will always stand in danger of vaporizing.  
Others abuse freedom as a way to dishonestly accumulate wealth in their greedy cause while bringing misery to their fellow man.  You see, freedom is a dangerous thing when it is not utilized properly because freedom must be conducted with proper care and responsibility if any nation is to survive the dynamic power of "Freedom."  Freedom is an attribute of the SPIRIT of GOD and when it is not recognized as such, it becomes a mockery of SPIRIT that will have dire consequences because of perpetual CAUSE and EFFECT.  Some countries are unable to conduct their business responsibly within the framework of dynamic freedom and they fall back into an oppressive totalitarian system of government because they are unable to be responsible humans and thus they are ruled by fear and an iron fist.  A totalitarian and dictatorial form of government will not have the powerful dynamics of freedom at their disposal as they rule with an iron hand and they become deprived of the prosperity that freedom provides.  Freedom, when properly utilized, can cause a nation's economy to prosper in perpetual wealth and prosperity and is robust, until, abuse and misuse takes place.  When misuse and abuse occurs, the dynamic power of freedom becomes a formidable destructive force that can destroy a nation's economy and, or, a world economy into oblivion.  It is the "effect" of a misused and abused spiritual power and energy which perpetrators bear the responsibility of its outcome and they are ruled by their fate or destiny.  The Preamble and the original US Constitution is a gift of GOD whose SPIRIT gave the inspiration and guidance to the fathers of the constitution to write such a document as an aide to lift the world out of the primitive dark age governmental conceptions that kept mankind in bondage and poverty and is valid today as well as in the future.      
America bears a great responsibility for the freedom she is given by the inspiration of Infinite SPIRIT.   SPIRIT has placed a balancing scale of power in her hand of which one side is endowed with the power of RHYTHM (the cycles) while the other end of the scale is CAUSE AND EFFECT.   Her responsibility is to balance the power of the two Principles properly.  If she fails to do this, the scales will teeter and wobble dangerously and she can fall into oblivion.  This translates into what we see on the New York stock exchange boards and has a rippling effect on the world economy and stock exchanges.   Freedom can provide the tools and benefits that can give a nation the latitude to lift it out of economic disasters when used properly.  The German philosopher Karl Marx expressed these dangers in an article he wrote in 1867….
 
Das Kapital
 (
The Capitalist System )
 
The Free Enterprise system is the most efficient and dynamic economic system ever devised by man, but it is afflicted with flaws that would destroy it through increasingly severe periods of inflation and depression.  The most serious flaw in the free enterprise system is that as it accumulates more and more wealth, it becomes less and less capable of using this wealth wisely [greed].  As a result, the accumulation of riches is accompanied by the rapid spread of human misery....    

Karl Marx
The flaw is not in the free enterprise system itself, but in how it is utilized by those who are responsible for it.  Greed will block the proper use of dynamic freedom and turns it into "human misery."  The evidence of this is easily observed to the keen observer, who is able to use their intuitive faculties and internal Wisdom.  Greedy and irresponsible humans (the tares) are tall on intellect and extremely short on wisdom.  No political system in the world is workable when greed, dishonesty, theft, murder, or any type of evil is utilized.  Such a system will always be the subject of dissolution until it learns to use the balancing scale properly and freedom is restored or it becomes dissolved in failure.  The more evil a government commits, the shorter their reign.  An example are the mistaken ambitions of the Nazis and the Japanese during WWII that awakened the forces in Nature to raise armies in the world to unite to defeat their evil ambitions with painful results.  CAUSE and EFFECT eliminated their evil ambitions.  Their evil ambitions were extremely short-lived.  This is what follows when humans in responsible positions make the mistake of committing evil.   The record of history will bear witness to this truth.  Some suffered the destruction of natural disasters as they upset the balance in Nature and they become the target of elimination in the RHYTHMS of time --"the rise and fall of governments and nations."  Our world economy is still in danger spiraling down because of the unethical ambitions of the financial institutions that are unwilling to let go of their greed and they will continue their greedy ambitions not realizing that money cannot save them, only the change in their greedy attitude.  They are quick to grab money to add to their balance sheets while others resisted and refused.  You can recognize them by the fruits.  The book of Revelations and the book of the Apocalypse speak of them in allegories and quatrains that can only be understood by a person with intuitive faculties enabled and imbued with Wisdom.  
The "capitalist system" operates within the framework of "freedom" and is affected by the same dynamics as freedom itself.  Both are powerful tools and when properly utilized that enables broad economic power, wealth, and prosperity to a nation.  When the two tools are misused and abused, the balance will teeter wildly and an entire nation can tumble down.  This is a guide of awareness, to keep in the minds of global corporations, industry, and financial institutions.   Other nations should not break out the champagne in order to celebrate America’s difficulties because all of us are perpetually connected thru the ethereal web of Omnipresent SPIRIT.  The key is to practice humility and be teachable, to keep an open mind, and be aware of the choices you make.  If this is not accomplished, then it will be a most difficult and painful lesson of LIFE....
The danger to the free enterprise system is not from socialism, communism, or Nazism but is from the free enterprise system itself.  It has been said that the free enterprise must be allowed to operate freely in order to work properly without governmental interference and in a way that is true provided that corporate entities operate responsibly without any secret agendas to defraud the public while calling it "good for business."  We have the insurance, financial pharmaceutical, and health care industry misusing and abusing the "free enterprise" system and utilizing it as the "free rip-off system" in order for them to greedily accumulate wealth while secretly disseminating misinformation to confuse the public and endangering the collapse of an entire nation.  They are no longer doing it in secret but brazenly do it in the open and without shame.  They will be sorely mistaken with the next economic downturn that will be so severe that they will not be able to recover from the severe damage they have caused to themselves and causing widespread civil unrest and violence as a witch hunt could develop for their leaders and possibly for some of their families.  This can cause the economic infrastructure of the free enterprise system to collapse like the twin towers of New York.  This is not a good event to occur because it displays the avarice and greed of anti-Christ principles which is the cause of the impending danger.  Government must not be influenced by these wicked entities if a nation is to survive through the ravages of time.  The ignorant public, like the pawns on the chessboard of Life are easily swayed and misled, unable to think for themselves, and they will repeat what they are fed by the blabbing warmongers and liars, who will help the wicked corporate entities to accomplish their greedy influence upon government in their lobbying efforts.  This is the beginning of an impending governmental system failure as the evidence of this can be seen in the increase of homeless people in the streets and healthcare running freely and rampant with their insane and illogical medical charges because they are greedy.  Banks, like the money changers in days of Jesus are greedy and it shows in their greedy policies while standing together shoulder to shoulder (no competition) to herd and victimize the public into their greedy clutches.  They will siphon all of a nation's monetary wealth while in their ignorance causing self destruction because of greed.  This is a misuse and abuse of the free enterprise system that will bring dire consequences to all.  Then, there are some corrupt politicians who in their secret agendas and profane ways collaborate and corroborate with these wicked corporate entities and shifting the blame on the leader of a nation and influencing the public into believing their lies.  This is extreme evil and satanic.  The consequences will not be very good if it is not corrected.
As for all governments in the world, the greater the evil ambitions of a government, the quicker their demise will be.  A good example is the mistaken ambitions of the Nazis and the Japanese during WWII that awakened the forces in Nature and caused armies to rise and unite to defeat their evil ambitions with painful results.  CAUSE and EFFECT eliminated their evil ambitions; their evils were extremely short-lived.  This is what will happen when humans in responsible positions make the mistake of being irresponsible by committing evil.  The more intense their evils, the greater their miseries, the shorter their existence will be.  An examination in history will bear witness to this truth.  Some suffered the destruction of natural disasters as they upset the balance in Nature and they become the target of elimination in the RHYTHMS of time --"the rise and fall of governments and nations."  Our world economy is still in danger spiraling down because of the unethical behaviors of the financial institutions that are unwilling to let go of their greed and they will continue to clutch to their greedy cause not realizing that money cannot help them, only a change in their attitudes.  They are quick to grab money to add to their balance sheets while others resisted and refused.  You can recognize them by the fruits that they bear.  Some are willing to risk their country’s livelihood to continue their greed.  The book of Revelations and the book of the Apocalypse speak of them in allegories and quatrains that can only be understood by a person with intuitive faculties enabled and imbued with Wisdom.  Intellect alone does not have the far reaching effect of Wisdom.  Wisdom enables a person to know how to do it right, while the intellect learns thru trial and error.
There will be powerful political upheavals and civil unrest in the near future that will change the borders between many countries as our Galaxy and our Earth is traveling into new dimensions of reality and a purging process takes place to eliminate the sources of evil that will cause an intense time of change.  Humans who are most resistant to renewal and who force their own personal agenda of personal gain will have the most difficult time with change as SPIRIT is aligning the planets in our solar system to maximize the influence of this change.  Resistance would be a futile undertaking and will cause a mental hell for those who resist.  While those who are spiritually developed know how to go with the flow and they are the inheritors of the earth.  "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth."  This is a prophecy that will separate the brutish who will wallow in their hellish cesspool of ignorance, while the humble and teachable will accumulate Knowledge and Wisdom in their journey to experience strength and preservation in knowing SPIRIT. 

THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE 
APOCALYPSE
Book of Revelation 
The "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" in the Book of Revelation is an allegory that pertains to the collective consciousness of the human race without regard to skin color, ethnic background, country, government or social standing.  
The Pale Horse
The first horse to be considered, is the Pale Horse and the horseman's name that rides this horse is "Death," and "Hell" (and destruction) follows after him.  When we view the daily news, we can see the activities of this horseman in the ambitions of the terrorists and other warmongers, religious or otherwise, whose members are already living in their virtual mental hell.  They live in the dangerous pit of physical death and they are tortured by their virtual mental hell which they have created for themselves.  These types people have no hope and they will resent the success of other people and make an attempt to destroy them.  They are unable to fetch for themselves because they are trapped in their mental hell and thus they resort to destruction of others and themselves.  Death and Hell will always follow on their heals as they live in intense fear for what they know, but a greater fear they have for what they cannot see with their eyes.  This condition creates a virtual mental hell for them and will remain there until they make a paradigm shift in their thinking.  This is not a good mental state to maintain oneself in and increases the chances of disease and disembodiment.  Today, death and destruction is everywhere prevalent, either by war or the forces of Nature which have awakened because of the intense anger, hatred, greed, and the deliberate disinformation to mislead people.  Disinformation is "lying against the Truth" which can result in the continued instability of the world economic infrastructure.  The instability is caused by the Principle of RHYTHM bringing everything back into balance and harmony.  Yes, that includes our economic infrastructure.  There are certain principles that must be observed by entities that operate within the world economic structure.  If the Principle of RHYTHM does nothing (which cannot be) then total destruction will occur.  It may be said that the balancing act of the Principle of RHYTHM is the saving grace of our world economy because it acts to prevent the total destruction which will result in the massive death of humans when no food is available.  It does not act to destroy us and it never will, unless we are in the wrong frame of Mind and we find ourselves in the wrong place....  We must always remember that the CAUSE of SPIRIT will always be in the preservation of physical Life..

The Ignorant and Unsuspecting, and The Knowledgeable Informed Master
The masses of people are carried along, obedient to environment; the wills and desires of others stronger than themselves; heredity; suggestion; and other outward causes moving them about like pawns on the Chessboard of Life. But the Masters, rising to the plane above, dominate their moods, characters, qualities and powers, as well as the environment surrounding them, and become movers instead of pawns.   They help PLAY THE GAME OF LIFE, instead of being played and moved about by other wills and environment.  They USE the Principle instead of being its tools.  The Masters obey the Causation of the higher planes, but they help RULE on their own plane.
Any individuals who have attained any degree of Self-Mastery do this to a certain degree, more or less unconsciously, but the Master does this consciously, and by the use of his Will, and attains a degree of Poise and Mental Firmness almost impossible of belief on part of the masses who are swung backward and forward like a pendulum.
They (the Masters) cannot annul the Principle, or cause it to cease its operation, but they have learned how to escape its effects upon themselves to a certain degree depending upon the Mastery of the Principle.  They have learned how to USE it, instead of being USED BY it.

THE KYBALION


"THE ALL is MIND; The Universe is Mental."
-
The Kybalion
"All is in THE ALL, and THE ALL is in All."

IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Principle of MENTALISM manifests the Crown Chakra, the cause of Mind, Life, the physical body of Conscious awareness and vitality and continues its manifestation of the Pituitary gland, the master gland of the body. The Pituitary gland is the first gland to appear in the human embryo and is the first order of physical manifestation of man in the womb.  This is the primordial or fundamental beginning of all Human existence and is the beginning of the "downward born elements" or manifestations of The SPIRIT of GOD in its aspect of Creation of the Human body.  There is no such thing as being "outside" of, or "without" GOD."  "I AM always present with thee."  This should not be lightly taken in complacency.

No matter what we think, do, or where we are, what we believe, or what we think our race, country, or ethnic background is, no matter if we are in our embodied or disembodied state, we cannot escape the presence of GOD.  We are Eternally and Infinitely connected to SPIRIT and its immutable perpetual Principles of LIFE.
The evolution of a Human Life and body begins at the Root Chakra and its energy is drawn upward through all major Chakras toward the Crown Chakra which occupies the highest point in the Human body and runs opposite of the process of manifestation or involution.  All of manifested Life must evolve upward or Divine-ward in the process of evolution.  Nothing is allowed to stand still in the Universe.  It is all self evident and does not need scientific verification.  
In an overly sexually obsessed and perverted person, he or she becomes trapped by runaway Tantric energy of the Root Chakra and their evolution becomes a stymied and painful process when there is no room to think about "other" things.  Sex has become their idol god and is all that they have to live for and so they become trapped in their perception of Life.  They may fall into a very low and dark region of Consciousness because they are unable to use their sexual energy properly.  Their sexuality becomes a virtue-less bestial animalistic activity of a low degree.  Sexual criminals operate in this region of consciousness.

"THE ALL," or "GOD" Creator and Causation of The Universe which occupies its center as well as all centers of every system in the microcosm and macrocosm of our internal and surrounding realms, including ourselves, either seen or unseen by the human eye. The INFINITE MIND of THE ALL, through the efforts and will of its own, dynamically generates waves of vibratory energy that holds the Universe in perpetual vibration, motion, and change, causing the Life and Being of atomic particles of which the manifested Universe is composed.     Furthermore, THE ALL holds firmly fixed within its INFINITE MIND, void of form or locality, the Cosmos and its countless blazing suns, hurdling worlds, swirling galaxies, and phenomena, which are without exception or exclusion subject to the immutable Law and inescapable Mental Process of the ever Omnipresent LIVING MIND that we call "SPIRIT."    The difference in SPIRIT and manifested Matter being that in the likeness of water and ice, same aspect but different in degree.  There are the two aspects of the same reality, that which is manifested as the material Universe, and that which is un-manifested and not readily apparent to the five senses of human perception and consciousness.  Dark matter is one example of the un-manifested reality that occupies all of space between the galaxies, solar systems, suns and worlds of which there is a greater volumetric presence than the physical particles visible to the human eye.  There is no such thing as "empty" space....   What does the intellectual and wondering human mind suppose it [dark matter] is?
In ITS aspect of creation and manifestation THE ALL who is LIFE and LIGHT through the medium of SPIRIT permeates and engulfs all of LIFE and MATTER in LIGHT of which a small degree of the LIGHT spectrum is visible to the human eye which is for the most part only a reflection light off of material objects, while a major portion of the spectrum remains invisible.  The ability to observe the greater portion of the LIGHT spectrum depends on the individual evolutionary stage of conscious awareness and the interference of preconceived notions and beliefs not supported by Universal Principles which limits the individual Human Mind to its own personal reality of belief systems.   A Human can only perceive reality within the parameters of what he or she believes to exist or not exist.  Reality is tailored to a person's belief system by the Subconscious Mind which edits out of our Minds that which we believe not to exist.  It is because of this difference of reality perception that Humans disagree on a great many things and it follows the cause of hatred, violence, and war without reason.  Ignorance is the greatest error and root cause of all evils and it can be traced as the root cause of all fears under the sun.  It is the cause of superstition and unbelief.  This is mentioned and brought into the reader's field of awareness because of the paragraph that follows....
THE ALL in All, being LIFE and LIGHT and INFINITE and void of form or any specific locality in Space and Time, not subject to change, holds all of CREATION within ITS INFINITE MIND and permeating and penetrating everything with ITS MIND of Intelligent LIGHT Energy.  The LIGHT Energy of THE ALL'S MIND instructs all atomic particles to "gather together" or "repel" each other and forms the distinct physical manifestations in our physical world that all of us enjoy and marvel at its beauty.  In the four elements of our Planet which are AIR, WATER, EARTH, AND FIRE the atomic particles of each element is instructed by THE INFINITE MIND to attract each other and a manifestation of each element takes place.   Yet, while THE ALL instructs each particle of each element to gather together (The Law of Attraction), they are also instructed by this LIGHT ENERGY to repel each other (The Law of Repulsion).   For example, while the particles of each element of Fire and Water are instructed to "gather" together to form each, it is also told to remain separate, one element from the other.  The Law of Repulsion is important because it is otherwise not possible for each of the four elements to remain as individual distinct manifestations.  Atomic particles are fully aware of the INFINITE presence of SPIRIT and they can "sense" ITS instruction and obey the CREATOR as each take their proper position in the creative process.     The Law of Attraction and Repulsion is a manifestation of The Principle of POLARITY.  Humans, are subject to the Law of Attraction and Repulsion in that it makes each of us a very distinct and unique individual, each with likes and dislikes that differ one from the other.  Sexual energy is a powerful attraction between male and female that very few people can properly control its power and is in place to prevent the extinction of mortal humans.  Each human is without exception or exclusion, a very Great Soul that is holographically manifested within THE ALL and none can escape the presence of LIGHT Energy which is LIFE.  There is no such thing as "being alone."  All of the elements, great and small in The Universe, all are subject to this constant Energy of LIGHT in the Attraction and Repulsion of all atomic particles throughout the Universe within the dynamic Energy of INFINITE SPIRIT in its aspect of constant MANIFESTATION and CREATION.  All of us are constantly learning and growing and we rise in the scale of Life as the SPIRIT wills in order for all of us to become aware of ITS presence.  The Law of Attraction and Repulsion of the particle reality is a subject of research in Quantum Physics. 
The perception of a single Causation is not possible in the dualist views of GOD that the many religions in the world maintain in their belief system.  Religions with dualistic views about GOD, Allah, Jehovah, etc., are religions who by the nature of their beliefs in dualism are very much divided religions.   Dualism separates, divides, disunites, causes disharmony and is evident in the many various denominations of the Christian religion who are unable to agree with each other.  This is not unique to the Christian religion.  Dualism is evident in Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and the many other religions not mentioned who are constantly warring with each other.  Dualistic views that prevents each to accomplish unity of Mind within their religion and with the neighboring  religions.  On the other hand if Unity of Mind is accomplished, the various religions in the world would melt into a single Universal Religion that is based on Knowledge and not beliefs, hypothesis, or theory.  Each of the religions will acquire a mental compass which needle points in the same direction which cause is THE ALL.  There will be no reason for disagreement or disharmony.  Quantum Physics has difficulties with dualistic views because the Universe does not display such a scenario.   They maintain a monotheistic view about reality.  Dualism is primitive by nature and was practiced by primitive man in his ignorance of the Truth during the dawning of the ages and in the lapse of time was inherited by "modern" man who incorporated dualism in the various belief systems of the world.  Now is the dawning of an awakening process that will bring change in the conduct of humans and how commerce will be accomplished that is based on the principles of honesty, honor, and mutual respect.
If it were possible to interrupt the dynamic vibratory energy of THE ALL that manifests and evolves the particle Universe, the "material" realm as we understand it would disintegrate in less time than the flash of a lightning bolt. All that is, including our bodies, would cease to exist.  Our entire existence is sustained by this "GOD" who for the most part remains obscured by preconceived notions and religious superstitions and remains unknowable to the human race.  This will, and must change if humanity is to continue its existence on the Great Physical Plane.  The Creative effort of THE ALL enables the various Life forms in the Universe, as each entity occupies its own Plane of Being in the ascending scale of Life, sustaining and maintaining all of LIFE throughout the Universe. 
There is nothing able of escaping the MIND of THE ALL for there is nothing that can exist apart from SPIRIT. Nothing can be added to or subtracted from SPIRIT because it has no boundaries, borders, or edges in space to add to, or subtract from itself. It is absolute in presence and non-local in stature. THE ALL does not learn anything because IT KNOWS EVERYTHING, while learning is the human quality of constant advancement and growth in all phases of Life in the dimension of space, time, and perpetual change. THE ALL is everywhere present all at the same time (Omnipresent). No human qualities, or physical form of any kind can be or should be ascribed to it. It cannot be analyzed, classified, or categorized. To do so would be a folly that will raise more questions than answers. 
The moving vibratory timeline of the "present" animates that which is in the future and are events that momentarily pass through our lives and becomes the recorded history of the present.  The quality of choices that we make in our own personal Life affects the direction of the future because of the constant unfolding and advancing Human Mind.  The moving vibratory timeline which animates Life is similar in principle like that of movie pictures in a reel of film that momentarily passes through the projector's lens and creates an animated drama of Life on the big screen.  The unwinding film reel of the projector is like the future that momentarily passes through the projector's lens of the "now" or "present and then becomes history in the winding film reel.  The reader can see that all physical motion in Life can only be experienced in the animated "now" or "present" as each moment of "present" events passes into the winding reel of the past which becomes the history of the world.  We can only retain the "now" events in the memory of our Minds. 
The difference is that in the Human Mind in the Great Mental Plane, the momentary pictures of the vibratory timeline can be changed before they appear in the present and cause a change in the direction of "fate or destiny."  Accurate predictions of the future are difficult to make because everything is subject to change as the Human Mind advances in the great scale of Life and a path of destruction can become a path of the preservation of Life and Being.  Only the most advanced Souls are able to see the changes in the future pictures of Life accurately.  There are no mechanical devices capable of accomplishing this and there is no scientific verification possible, at least, not for the moment.  The Polarity of "Karma and Dharma", and that of the Principle of "Cause and Effect" in the collective Human Consciousness determines how the "fate or destiny," "the future," of our civilization is shaped.  All are events within THE ALL in whose Mind we dwell and have our being.... --NOTHING ESCAPES THE LAW.
The vibrating timeline of the "presence" is illusionary in nature because it is non-enduring and subject to constant change, animated events of the "now" only manifests for an infinite short moment in space and time before it passes into history.  It is always subject to change.  Yesteryear's mode of transportation, for example, becomes a historical relic of the moving timeline as will today's cutting edge technology.  It may be said that a movie projector mechanically emulates the principles of Space and Time.   Space, Time, and Constant Change (evolution) can only be experienced in the "presence." of an animated physical body.  Disembodiment terminates the experience of Space, Time, and Change or at least retards the experience.  This applies to all physically present life forms across the Universe.
A disembodied human becomes deprived of experiencing Space, Time, and the process of evolution because it no longer is in possession of a body which is its only connection with the Great Physical Plane.   There are no bodily particles present to interact with the particles of the Physical Plane or that can be subjected to constant change as in the process of decay for example.  There are no external forces to cause decay upon the physical body when there is none to speak of because there is no "external presence."  It dwells on a Plane of Life and Being either just above that of the Physical Plane or far above it, depending on its placement in the Great Scale of Life.  A human who experiences disembodiment, will always be compelled to return to the Great Physical Plane because of its desire to be whole again and this alone is sufficient to perpetuate Universal Cosmic LAW in the fulfillment of the person's desire to return to its incarnated state of Being again.  Universal Law is equally present across the Universe and will equally rule and govern the entire Cosmos, hence, Universal Cosmic Law.  The manifesting Power and Energy of THE ALL is the great CAUSE back of, behind, and underneath Universal Cosmic Law.  The Great LAW is universal in that it rules and governs the principles of mathematics, the behavior of the sine waves of electrical energy, gravitation, light, Human bodily functions, and the mood swings of the human Mind, etc.
When the Human Mind becomes focused on Universal Spiritual Knowledge, it becomes attached to a something that is not subject to change such as a deep understanding of the function of Universal Cosmic Law.  A person's unfolding Spiritual Mind will learn to utilize the LAW to its own advantage and attains self mastery over the lower self.  When this understanding and awareness unfolds in our Minds, we have found a compass which needle will always point in the same direction no matter which way we turn.  This compass and needle (understanding) becomes our navigator in Life which for the most part keeps us apart from the external turmoil and strife of the outer world.  We are in the world, but not of it.  In this state of Mind and Understanding, will a person lose all fear because he or she becomes solidly anchored in LIFE --rock solid!
THE ALL being Divine in its nature, dynamically holds the Universe firmly within its SPIRIT (Intelligent Energy) and rules by fate or destiny the Spiritward journey (evolution) of manifested Life and causing the upward and onward evolution of all Life in the ascending scale.  The often loosely used term and misunderstood meaning of divine or DI-VINE presence in truth means "DI,"  "double," the opposite poles of MENTAL POLARITY of THE ALL, and "VINE" denotes the double-vined Principle of POLARITY, of which the one cannot be without the other, the cathode, and the anode, as the splitting into two branches from a single grapevine for example, but always coming from a single vine, or single source of Causation.  It may be said that the Universe is held in perpetual manifestation, vibration, motion, and change by the Mental activity of THE ALL as it vibrates with infinite rapidity between the Positive and Negative pole of its MENTAL POLARITY, enabling Universal LIFE and activity across the Universe.  The constant Mental activity of Life giving vibratory energy of MIND and Matter within the Infinite CREATOR makes it "DI-VINE," or Divine.  All of Life, and living is sustained by the Mental activity (LAW) and manifestations of THE ALL.  All things have their existence solely within The INFINITE MIND of THE ALL. 
The evidence of this manifesting Polarity is present in every sun, planet, galaxy, and every celestial and terrestrial body throughout the Universe and also rules by the Universal Principle of Polarity the behavior of electrical energy which powers the infrastructure of our civilization.  We have much to be grateful and thankful, for it powers our industry, and  our computers which enables us to come together and discoursing Spiritual Knowledge that would otherwise remain hidden. Today is the dawning of a new (nothing new under the sun) Spiritual Consciousness for man that will bring change in the way humans view Life and enabling them an expanded view of the Universe and its hidden causation.  All this because of the Spiritward evolutionary process that brings change in human consciousness and consequently cause change in their societal infrastructure and surrounding environment.  As the human Mind continues to develop, from the era of horse drawn buggies to the modern day automobile and jet flight, so will the continuously upward developing human Mind bring constant change to themselves,  technology, and the environment.     Evolution is not limited to physical changes of celestial and terrestrial bodies, but to all things on Earth and the Universe.  Evolution  is self evident when observing and studying the history of humans, their Spiritual advancement, technological achievements, and the change they cause in their infrastructure and the environment.  The upward driving force of INFINITE INTELLIGENT SPIRIT in the ascending scale of LIFE is the cause of the evolutionary process in us and the Universe, --nothing can or is allowed to stand still in space, time and perpetual change....   Today, and all the events of this day, will never be experienced again in the same way as the immutable moving time line brings us a new experience in each new day and we learn and expand our consciousness into a greater awareness of reality.  Life becomes easier to live because we learn to work closer to Life's Universal Principles and enabling a greater understanding of doing things.  This is the immutable evolutionary process of Life which destiny is in the upward advancement and placement of all living entities on Earth and the immaculate, marvelous Universe.  Evolution is a Universal Cosmic LAW.
The Universe is held in perpetual motion and change as THE ALL momentarily withdraws its Mental contemplation of the manifested Universe, enabling the upward and onward evolution of all Life and Being, and causing all things to migrate toward the Positive Pole of MIND, where all "that is," has its beginnings in the manifestation of all Creation.  And, causing the Universe to vibrate with LIFE, as if breathing and pausing at times, with resting periods of immeasurable proportions in the Eternal Cosmology of space, time, and perpetual change.  In Quantum Physics there is a theory that the physical or material Universe, that which we are able to observe with our eyes, maybe blinking in and out of physical reality with such great rapidity, that it is not sensed during our perception of reality.  
In the ancient Hermetic philosophy of Hermes (possibly the ancient Enoch) mentioned: 
Holy art thou, of whom all Nature is the Image. [Nature; the manifested or external Image of GOD (LIFE)].For there is nothing which is not the Image of God.  
Yet thou sayest, that God is invisible; but be advised, for who is more manifest than He? 
For therefore hath he made all things; that thou by all things mayest see him. 
The ancient Egyptian Philosopher, Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus, an excerpt  from "Divine Pymander "
THE ALL, being THE ABSOLUTE, while space, time, and change is a manifestation and expression of SPIRIT in the relativity of manifested matter, Life and Being.  In this understanding is Consciousness and Matter an inseparable aspect of MIND-- the inescapable Omnipresent SPIRIT.  In short, atomic and sub-atomic particles of which all "matter" is  composed proceeds from energy and energy from INFINITE LIVING DIVINE MIND which rules the fate or destiny of the Universe and its contents. 
Of all the things that are in the manifested realm (relativity), nothing can or is allowed to stand still in the evolutionary process of SPIRIT as it cycles all of manifested Creation Spiritward and drawing all of Universal Creation back into itself from whence it came of which there is nothing that can escape its enormous and absolute presence.  There can be no other explanation and true meaning of "Evolution,"  it is SPIRIT that manifests the Universe and holding it in  perpetual change.  This process will bring change to many a human Mind as its awareness expands into regions of reality that were previously not perceived or believed to exist and causing Human Minds to stand in speechless awe as it becomes a witness in the creative process of LIFE and its underlying causation of Universal LAW.  There is no other meaningful explanation for evolution in spite of all the religious controversy and rhetoric.   Science itself cannot stand in one place as they too will advance and reveal things in the near future that will boggle the Human Mind.  All upward progress; Spiritual, religious, scientific, technological and educational advancement is the unconditional evolutionary process of SPIRIT to learn, grow, and expand; "Know Thyself well, and learn the Things that are, and All that is." 

Can you, the reader, understand that which eyes cannot see but that your Mind is capable of "seeing" in  understanding?   If you can, than have you opened the channel of expression within your own Mind that enables your "Seership." into the "internal" reality of SPIRIT, the "unseen" reality where our entire material Universe and world is conceived and manifested, the cradle of creation void of space, time, and perpetual change.  It is  rock solid.  Learn to communicate with this SPIRIT.  You are inseparable from this reality.  The Intuitive Mind will take you into regions of your Mentalism that can only occur within yourself and no external source can impart to you.  Learn to sit still, focus and meditate on the reality of Omnipresent SPIRIT, NOT another human image.  This is very important!   Learn to "listen" to the impressions that come into your field of awareness within your own Mind.  Squelch any residual mental pollution and noise from daily living that is constantly forcing itself into your field of Consciousness.  You are the "Master" of your mental habits.  Give it direction and purpose in Life.  Learn the proper subconsciousing of your own Mind.  When you set aside a moment of silent focused meditation, you will find that SPIRIT will respond to you.  All this will come to you when you take time out to be "with" yourself, not "by" yourself.  Instead of getting caught up in the rat race of the unconscious world, learn to create a space of time to be with yourself so that you can be replenished with energy and vitality.  This is a very important aspect of human existence and can help you in the acquisition of the "proper Mind."   When you realize what the "proper Mind" is, you will be able to see for yourself the Principles by which the human Mind must abide in order to function properly with maximum efficiency.  It can help you, give you strength, and impart a silent power in all phases of Life, even in the seemingly "godless" business environment.   In this aspect of consciousness, you are not just a mere pawn on the chessboard of Life that is moved about by the efforts and wills of other people, but you have advanced to become a mover in the game of Life.  You have learnt to live within the parameters of a "proper Mind."  During the process of your own efforts, you will find that SPIRIT will respond to you and untold riches of Spiritual Knowledge will unfold within you.  Each one of us, our conscious existence, lives, are sustained by THE ALL..  It matters not what we "believe."

The human Mind will continue to grow and supersede the ten percent of current measurable intelligence (the majority of the masses is below ten percent).  The increasing percentages of measurable human intelligence will increase the awareness of the human Mind proportionally in the perception of reality.  In other words, the human Mind will become aware of a greater reality of things that were previously not "believed" to exist.  The evidence of this phenomena is already appearing in many segments of society but has so far escaped the mainstream news media and major organized religions of the world who remain oblivious to the dawning of a new reality awareness which has brought the world strange and unexplained phenomena; a close encounter of the fourth kind --SPIRIT!  Even they will not escape this dawning of a new reality awareness.  This dawning of expanded consciousness has sparked a heated debate and controversy between those who are aware and those who are still asleep and who are having their security blanket of believes and belief systems slowly removed.   The driving force behind these events are caused by the evolutionary process of SPIRIT and the conflict that exists between the two Mental Planes of thinking and awareness.  When Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding of the Truth is established, then will the conflict vanish and the two Planes of thinking become as one and united in harmony.  Imagine what humanity can accomplish when this happens!  It takes an open Universal Mind that is not bogged down in rigid doctrine, dogma, creed, race, and trivial religious rhetoric.  This is not the same as the "One World Order" concept.  The One World Order concept which has been conceived to further world commercialism is a materialistic view and concept that will fall short of its intended goals because it has failed to abide by the firmly established Principles of SPIRIT.  When the equations of Life are violated, a wrong answer will be derived because of the greedy and bestial desires of world commercialism which have become as shark invested waters.  They will consume each other in their greedy cause and spread human misery in the process.  This will become more evident in the lapse of time. 
It may be possible to keep church, temple, synagogue, separate from government, but the governments of the world will not escape the Principles of SPIRIT as their very existence is overshadowed by the enormous presence of SPIRIT and the inescapable Principles of Universal Cosmic LAW.  Its perpetual Universal Principles will dissolve any country, government, or any organization that fails to abide by Universal LAW.  The record of history will reveal this evidence.  Hitler, as only one example, was able to observe and understand these things, he would have taken a different course in Life and his Mind and life's energy would have been utilized in the advancement of humanity.  This man would have been an valuable asset to humanity.  "Ignorance" is a dangerous thing in that it causes dissolution and disembodiment --"The wages of sin is DEATH."   "Sin" means, error in the process and procedure of the Human Mind, or lack of "Proper Mind," that has failed to abide by the firmly established "Mental Principles" of SPIRIT.  Any person can converse with SPIRIT which is everywhere present and ask for the "Proper Mind" which no psychiatrist, psychologist, or religious leader, can impart.  A proper Mind will dissolve the problematic aspect of the human Mind and enable a person a greater vista of LIFE that will remove all IGNORANCE, and consequently, FEAR.  A proper Mind will be able to experience the spontaneity of Spiritual KNOWLEDGE that can only be imparted by SPIRIT --The Omnipresent ALL.  If world commerce would abide by these Principles, a discovery of untold riches would unfold through the hologram of the Human Mind while greed will retard the possibilities of perpetual wealth and causing the rise, fall, and dissolution of things.  Greed will prevent a person, or group of persons, from recognizing and enjoying their own wealth and their greedy posture will cause them to resort to dishonesty, lying, cheating, and stealing, which will end their "cause" in bodily dissolution....
As with all things in Life, the "Polarity" of good and evil is prevalent everywhere, even in cyberspace, for it strongly reflects the current stage of "conscious awareness" in human nature and its Spiritually intuitive or animalistic bestial desires; a choice humans make in the scale of "Mental Polarity".   Humans are constantly faced with making daily choices between good and evil; honesty or dishonesty, generosity or greed, forgiving or revenge, love or hate, etc., etc., affecting and sealing their own fate or destiny in Life.  Humans are capable of turning on a dime when it comes to these "split second" choices in the twinkling of an eye.
Spiritual development, growth, and the unfoldment of Knowledge in humans is an unavoidable and inescapable subject of human existence in order for the Mind to function properly with poise, mental firmness, and causing a positive direction in Life.  It is the only reliable source of Mental stability and human understanding.  Without Spiritual Knowledge is the human Mind empty and shallow in awareness and becomes problematic and prone to dysfunction.  This dysfunction becomes apparent in the form of mental instability and the increased probability of disease in their bodies.   A diseased body is a good indication that something has to be done about the thinking process.   The thinking process reflects what a person eats.  It reflects what and how they consume their food and how they behave in their daily living.   All are telltale signs of their character. 
To believe that a person is suffering for the glory of GOD is a redundant and absurd belief that came from the middle ages of ignorant and superstitious religious beliefs that have been inherited by modern day man.  This type of a believe can retard a person's Spiritual advancement and vibrant health in the body because Pranic substance, which is the essential Life Force of the body that is everywhere present, cannot be absorbed by the body of an unstable and disturbed mental attitude.  A good observer can see these things for themselves as evidence by observing the people they personally know.  The observer can easily see why a person suffers from disease by observing what they say, how they perceive their reality, and how stable the expression of their attitude.  When humans learn to rise to the Plane above, they will dominate their character, moods, qualities, and the environment.   SPIRIT is the very essence of the human Mind and can not be left out of the equation of human existence.  If every human accomplished the "proper Mind," there would be no need for doctors and hospitals.  A proper Mind is accomplished by learning and studying the firmly established Mental Principles and applying the Principles to one's own Life.  This is the Spiritual walk of man.  Not by a mere "belief system," but by the firmly established Universal Principles of SPIRIT.  If you have problems with the word "SPIRIT," then that is something that must be worked out in your own Mind before you can proceed.  You may call it "God," "Allah," "Jehovah," etc., a SPIRIT of many names and labels but always the same Universal SPIRIT.  This author often refers to it as, "THE ALL," or "SPIRIT," because it is Universal in Nature and does not refer to any organized religious beliefs.  Science refers to it as "a quantum field of energy," "dark matter," a blind force in their relative understanding of the Universe that is just there, at least, from an official standpoint.  It is not a blind force or a force that is random in its purpose, but it is a Super Intelligent non-material force that is void of shape and form that manifests the Universe and enables unconditional Life in all living entities of different shapes and forms throughout the Universe.  Nothing can escape its absolute presence.  It would be interesting to see physics formulate a quantum equation for this one.  Science has given humanity the Hubble Space telescope and giving the public a view of the Universe that has never been seen before and revealing unexplained mysteries of creation.   Those of us who understand SPIRIT, can see the Infinite Creator at work even through the works of physics and other scientific endeavors.  THE ALL reveals itself through different media and each time increasing in intensity as it reaches out for humanity to understand that they are never alone on this spinning sphere called "Earth" as it travels at a dizzying speed of two million miles an hour through space along with the rest of the Milky way Galaxy.  It desires for humanity to "understand" the Truth about itself.
The person who learns to focus on learning esoteric Knowledge; the Arcane Knowledge and Wisdom will find that SPIRIT will communicate through your own Mind and thoughts and find a very intimate connection that enables spontaneous Knowledge.   Things that never entered the Mind will all of a sudden appear in the field of awareness.  You find yourself becoming interested in Spiritual things that never interested you before.   You become a changed person and experience tranquility as never before.  There can be no disconnection from the Universal Mind of THE ALL except in the illusion of a false belief or concept of Life.  In Truth, there is no discontinuity except in the Mind of the person who dwells within that idea.  To them it is very real. 
The careful mental observer will find that all of the problems in our civilization can be traced to the premature commitments of preconceived notions and a lack of Spiritual growth and Knowledge.  The fundamental Knowledge of our own Being for which the utilization of words seem all but adequate and scientific verification non-existent --only the intimate personal experience with SPIRIT itself becomes the person's personal evidence and guide through Life.
Spirituality is like the rules of mathematics by which every human of this civilization must adhere in order to make proper calculations and to accomplish scientific research and to conduct commerce.  It brings unity and harmony in the operation of the human Mind regarding mathematical calculations.  Imagine for a moment if the world was to conduct mathematical equations based on beliefs rather than knowledge.  World commerce would be impossible and chaotic because there can be no agreement between people as to how to proceed with multiplication and division for example.  And so it is, with the Knowledge of SPIRIT because it is based on the LAW of Mentalism by which each of us is compelled to abide.  True Spiritual Knowledge and Wisdom is based on firmly established Principles and LAW of the SPIRIT that becomes humanity's refuge from ignorant beliefs and the dis-unity and the dis-harmony it brings followed by anger, war, and violence.  There is no other way to accomplish unity and harmony.  Currently, humanity operates on the premises of "belief."  Unity and harmony is lacking because, "my guess is as good as yours," and so the world continues in disagreement and conflict.  There are religious wars in the world as each person believes that they are right.  All are based on premature cognitive commitments accompanied by the constantly returning human misery as it rapidly cycles between pleasure and pain and causing uncontrollable wide mood swings and sudden violent behavior and the destruction and pain that follows.   Human relationships based on superficiality and fakery will no longer work because of the increasingly rapid changes of the human mind.  People are looking for a something that is enduring and meaningful in their rapidly changing world.   All levels of society is affected by this change.
We have heard the saying that no two humans view reality the same way.  Why?  Because of the difference in beliefs.  Humans are compelled to abide by their own beliefs because there is no access to true Arcane Knowledge and therefore is harmony and unity not possible.  Arcane Knowledge and Wisdom is hidden from world view not because it is forbidden, but because it is not "known" by most people.  The dark age religions have not helped.  When our personal focus is only on what we believe rather than what we know, we have an assortment of belief systems that do not agree with each other because of the difference in viewpoints.  This is the reason why mathematical principles have been utilized as an analogy in the above paragraphs.  It is true that each believe is a personal pathway that will eventually lead to the recognition of the firmly established Principles of SPIRIT.  Then, and only then, will unity and harmony be possible.  There has to be an agreement or center of focus in all minds to accomplish a unity of Mind that is based on Knowledge rather than mere "believes."  When there are differences of opinions, beliefs and viewpoints, will the unity of Mind never be accomplished or even possible.  Different religions in the world will never accomplish a unity or harmony of Mind.  There will always be a disagreement because all their causations are based on "believes."  Let him or her who can understand continue on The Pathway of Knowledge and Wisdom.
A master of Life, or adept, understands these things because they too at one time were even as we are.  A true master of Life knows THE ALL and "believes" are not an  issue in their Mind and Life.  They know that in order to do the great things they do, they must abide by the "Knowledge" of firmly established Principles of SPIRIT such as is written on this web page.  They are not governed by the laws of the land because they live above the written laws and have no connection with any country.  They come from a Plane of reality that is above the Plane of the dreamy collective mindset of this civilization which border lines separate the races.  Some people may have a faint glimpse of these Spiritual adepts but for the most part have no idea who or what they are or that they even exist.  They do exert great influence to deter mass destruction of the human race and even for them, at times, it is difficult to prevent the destructive tendencies of the human mind from destroying itself because they know that every living human is Spirit and they can, collectively, exert enormous negative power over themselves and their environment.  The masters of Life are no pawns on the chessboard of Life, but they are the movers of the pawns who exert great influence on the unsuspecting collective consciousness which knows almost nothing about them.  They are the "angels" of the human race and are as advanced brothers and sisters in SPIRIT.  Not the winged type which is a religious imagination and invention.  However, they can materialize and dematerialize at will and accomplish instant teleportation and have no need for "wings" to do so.  They are unable to exercise control over other humans because it is not in the LAW of SPIRIT to do so.  They will not interfere with Life's processes but they can "influence" change such as the prevention of a world war or the abandonment of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction because they know that when a nuclear bomb is detonated, it will cause an electromagnetic disturbance that goes beyond our physical world.  It is possible that this may be the reason for the increased appearance of UFO's and alien Life forms.  We may have shaken their dimension each time a nuclear device is detonated for "research" purposes.  It is possible for a "sonar" rippling effect which can be detected by Life forms from other dimensions and gives our researchers a view of a parallel dimension that is adjacent to ours.
Words do an injustice to the wonderful greatness of SPIRIT and only in the personal experience of the Human Mind can this greatness be comprehended and appreciated.  Because these Principles are not very well understood or known by the collective mindset of the world or even in the scientific Mind.  The human race is compelled to establish governments, courts, law enforcement, soldiers, religious leaders to make up for the lack of knowledge about these Principles and so the world governments are compelled to keep the human beasts in line by creating laws which are not always adhered to, not even by the responsible persons who write the laws.   This is not the case with the Seven Principles because there is nothing that can escape this LAW not even the manifested atomic particles.  Without the laws of the land, humans would devour each other like the beasts of undeveloped creatures in Nature.   The SPIRIT, through the evolutionary process of the Universe, will drive the Human Mind onward and upward on the scale of LIFE and eventually causing the Human Mind to become liberated and it will recognize its true freedom.  The Human Mind will eventually evolve to the point where it will use the Seven Principles to its own advantage and they will become "causations" in Life instead of reacting to the external influence of "effects." 

The Universal Principle of LOVE
LOVE will not only draw and keep things together but it will dissolve that which does not adhere to its own Principle.  The following is a quotation regarding The Universal Principle of LOVE that applies to all of Life and Living and enables the manifestation of physical reality in the process of affinity, adhesion, coagulation, and repulsion of atomic particles.   All of are composed by the cohesion of unconditional Universal LOVE of SPIRIT that holds the Universe together.  A very powerful Spiritual discourse from the Masters of the Himalayas:
"Love is, as it might be said, cohesion, or a binding force that keeps all things in relationship to their source."
"But Love will dissolve that which is not in harmony with the Universal order for it demands of everything its complete adherence to the principle of its own nature which is SPIRIT."
Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East
Few people understand the true meaning of unconditional LOVE.  LOVE is the glue, that makes relationships between husband and wife, parent and child, and friendships possible.  If Love is only understood in a shallow and superficial manner, the relationship becomes impossible and it dissolves.  All this because of the lack of Spiritual Knowledge, Understanding and Wisdom.  This animal state of "Mentalism" weakens an individual's resolve in Life and living and they become moved about like pawns on the chessboard of Life and are subjected to the mental forces of wishes, wills, and efforts, of other humans stronger than their own.  They act on fear, their Mind becomes dysfunctional as it enters into a survival and cunning mode (like the animals) and their dignity becomes damaged and increasing their mental stress.  They become dismayed and disheartened followed by anger.  The only road they may see and out of their situation is by resorting to a violent behavior and eliminating by whatever means they believe is the offending cause of their pain which underlying cause is fear.
The human Mind does not belong on the Animal Plane of Being and when it does operate on that Plane, it violates the Principles of its own Plane of Being and the Mental forces of its own nature.  The person becomes straddled between the two Planes of Being and experiences the mental stress and conflict of the two Planes.  The person may not be aware of his or her condition because of a lack of awareness.  They may not even be aware of the various Mental Planes and states of Being that encompass reality.  Scientific verification and knowledge regarding this reality is non-existent and therefore can assistance not be extended to these people on a large scale.  There is also the problem that the person in this condition may be an unwilling individual who prefers to stay in their state of misery.  This type of person cannot be forced into understanding their condition.  Only LOVE and patience will slowly change the individual to the point where a dialogue of trust and friendship can be developed and they are enabled to see their state of Mind for themselves.  Then, and only then, can they change the condition for themselves.  We can only extend our assistance to them if they are willing to accept. 
The various Planes of Being affect relationships and friendships as very few people if any will share the exact same Plane of Being.  The closer the relative Planes of Being are, the greater the compatibility while the opposite will increase the incompatibility of people.  When Spiritual Knowledge and Wisdom is understood and shared, then it becomes the central hub of all causes in every individual and like the principles of mathematics is harmony and unity accomplished and the differences become dissolved.  In this state can very great things be accomplished because of mutual awareness and understanding.
The Mind must never be allowed to stop advancing on the ascending scale of Life.  If the Mind stops advancing, it will be subject to entropy or process of decay and terminating in the demise of the physical body.   Remember, nothing is allowed to stand still.  The appearance of old age and disease in the body is the first sign of entropy and indicates that the Mind is not allowed to advance and grow in an individual because of complacency in personal advancement of Spiritual Knowledge and Wisdom.  People get stuck on a given belief system and prematurely commit themselves to what they believe is the ultimate religion, instantly stunning their Spiritual advancement.  True Spiritual growth is an unconditional universal commitment that is not attached to  anything.  A person becomes universal in their disposition, commitment, and endeavors and will view humanity as one brotherhood.  The person who advanced to this mental state is no longer territorial in their disposition which is an attribute of the animal plane and belongs to the lower parts of human nature.  Spiritual growth and advancement is an eternal commitment of the Soul and its manifested body as it grows through various ascending planes of "being" and causing a perpetual change in the ascension.  It is a never ending quest of constant growth from "man to archangel" because of the Infinite availability of Arcane Knowledge and Wisdom that  transcends the finite materialistic and intellectual views in Life.  That which "Eyes and Ears have not seen or heard."
If our entire civilization is allowed to stop advancing Spiritually, it will perish off the face of this planet like the many civilizations before us who have disappeared with barely a trace of their existence.   There is a strong possibility that primitive Neanderthal and others may have been the descendants of such a past apocalyptic civilization; traces of de-evolved humans who have fallen so low in the planes of being that they resemble more of a primitive animal than a physical human.  Only through many wary ages of "retracing its steps over the backward road it has trodden" did man reestablished his human consciousness and the freedom that it enabled the him and her of today.  But, the road has not ended and it must continue without cessation or interruption.  This is the eternal quest of Man --from Man to Archangel and beyond.
A knowledge and understanding of SPIRIT is the only way to prevent our human nature from dwelling upon the lower planes of "being" and thedismay and horror it brings to us while being unaware of the Truth, the direction, and purpose, and the mental firmness of Life it enables.  The Spiritually developed person is capable of being "self referred" regarding Spiritual Knowledge without having to make a constant reference to literature, persons, or other people's misinformation.  They will speak Knowledge in their own words because it is within the ability of their inner Higher self to do so.  No human is excluded or exempted from this, if they only have the "desire" and "will" TO KNOW.  NEVER allow another person to pull you down to their level.  Learn and understand the manifestations of SPIRIT and the LAW that governs the manifestations.  It will give you a viewpoint of reality that brings awe in your Life and a deep respect for Nature and the Universe.
The manifestation of the Absolute being threefold (Trinity) in appearance but only ONE in substance.   There is but ONE LIFE, ONE SPIRIT, from which all manifested Life, Being, and matter proceeds.  THE ALL, IS the SOLE Causation of LIFE, LIGHT, and Being.
The enormity of the SPIRIT'S absolute presence, a subject of religious worship in organized religion, has been grossly underestimated and misunderstood by most humans.  Most, who sit in the pews of their favorite denominational church, synagogue, temple, or any other religion have but a faint conception of what they are worshipping.....  SPIRIT is an obscure aspect of reality because of a confusing myriad of personal, scientific, and religious belief systems.  When a person learns to think for themselves and silence his or her Mind, abstaining from all mental noise and mental pollution, the Wisdom of SPIRIT will emerge in the human Mind of its own accord and it will respond by giving more Knowledge as it becomes a person's Guide and TEACHER OF TRUTH.  Those who have a degree of understanding regarding SPIRIT know to follow its flawless leadership and guidance.  It will teach, and confirm the inner/outer aspects of reality that are unthinkable to most humans.  In this aspect of Mind will a person unequivocally recognize the established Universal Truth because the Truth is already known to the inner "blueprint" of Sub-Conscious Mind.  This type of person cannot be intentionally or unintentionally lied to.  They will always know the Truth and see the reality back of and behind all causations and intentions of other humans and navigate themselves through Life according to the Wisdom of SPIRIT, something that most humans have difficulty in accomplishing.
SPIRIT should not be confused as belonging to any particular religion because it has nothing to do with any religion.  Religion is a conceptualization of the human Mind what it "believes" that Spirit is.  At best, it may only be based on a half Truth, or a complete untruth.  This fundamental aspect of personal and religious beliefs, not necessarily based in Truth, is the cause of constant debate, argument, and war in the world  resulting in human suffering, as each person or groups of persons attempts to defend their believes from other persons or groups of persons who may not share the same views.  This competing condition becomes a struggle for control and the original vision of Spiritual development and growth is lost.  The debate, warring, and constant struggle for control in personal and religious believes is a vexation to SPIRIT.  When a TRUTH is KNOWN (not just believed), the need to defend this Knowledge is unnecessary because SPIRIT is of its own accord and does not require the assistance nor the enforcement or approval of any human to confirm its absolute presence.  THE ALL is formless, everywhere present, and non-gender specific.  THE ALL is the primary manifesting power and causation of male and female in all species of Life forms.
The Universe may be regarded as a manifested mental hologram of Infinite MIND (Spirit) in which all celestial and terrestrial bodies are suspended in space, time, and change (evolution). Within, as well as without, of all that is manifested on the Physical Plane of Life and Being is ever to be found the absolute and inescapable presence of "THE ALL," whose inner nature will always be unknowable to us and is known only to itself.
All manifested atomic and subatomic particles in the Universe are subject to THE ALL'S unconditional wills and efforts and is the LAW by which all phenomena in the particle Universe behave. It is a subject of study and research in Quantum Physics but for the moment not perceived or realized as such.  Science has given us, who walk in Spiritual awareness and Knowledge, the affirmation of the realm of SPIRIT by the scientific knowledge they maintain in that all atomic particles of which everything is composed, are all waveforms of energy and information (the nature of SPIRIT). 
Atoms as is commonly known in Quantum Physics, display the behavior of being wave forms of energy and particles at the same time. As a particle, atoms can be measured and weighed and be physically manipulated, as a wave form, the conventional means of measurement and manipulation is impossible.  However, "mental" manipulation of the waveform aspect is possible to cause change in the physical particles such as psychic healing, but this requires great Knowledge and Wisdom.  This is possible because the Universe is MENTAL in nature and humans are "mental" beings with physical bodies that acts as an interface (consciousness) between the Spirits that they are and the surrounding objective world that they "see" with their eyes.  The physical or objective world that we see with our eyes is composed of various degrees of vibratory Energy and is NOT as physical as it appears to the eyes or as most humans think or believe it is.
Without a body (disembodied state), humans would be instantly cut off from consciousness and thus the physical realm and all their material possessions.  A disembodied Soul would see the material world as waveforms of Light and Energy such as has been reported in many "out of the body experiences."  A disembodied Soul would not be uncomfortable unless the Mind has been maintained in the lower Planes of Being where it will remain even without a body such as a person with hateful criminal tendencies who can only cause and experience human misery.  
To some degree, the waveform can be registered by instrumentation.  The waveform/particle behavior of atoms is an indication that the manifested phenomena of form and force in the Universe is not as physical or material as we think or believe it is.  Atoms, in their waveform aspect have been known by science to be at two places at the same time--an unexplained phenomenon.... Every knowledgeable physicist and instructor of science  will confirm that there is no such thing as a "solid object."
Moreover, all material objects in the Universe are kept separated from each other because of the rapid vibrations and movements of electrons that orbit around their unique nucleus. This rapid vibration of electrons prevents the nuclei from flowing into each other. If the vibrations and movements of these electrons were muted, we as humans would sink through the earth's crust because of gravity. Walking "upon" the earth, would become impossible because all matter including our bodies would flow into a disorganized glob of material, if it can be called "material."  There would be no distinction between objects.   Adhesion and collision between particles and objects becomes non existent, the Universe would be in a state of true chaos.
The energy waveform of the atom is non-spatial in nature and does not occupy a given locality in the space/time continuum.  Energy waveforms belong to the realm of SPIRIT, a Divine Intelligence, that is void of locality and time. The nature of SPIRIT is where all physical forms originate as manifestations of vibratory energy before "becoming" physical objects on the material plane. The atoms of all physical objects are lowered vibrations of energy, lowered to the point where they gain mass and occupy a given locality and physical identity on the ascending scale of Life and Being.   Beyond Space and Time they exist only as waveforms of Energy and Light, the primary causation of mass and locality. In this aspect of being, can no specific point or size be assigned to the waveform side of the particle --A fascinating phenomenon!
The final analysis of atomic particles by science and the various hypothetical and theoretical postulates remain inconclusive because atomic particles fade away into "Intelligent" Energy, or Force (SPIRIT, from where it began).  It is not an aimless blind energy as it is believed.  Mathematical analysis of particles become impossible because the very vague dividing line between matter and energy is lost. At this point matter merges and slowly shades into an invisible field of Intelligent Energy.  As mentioned before, the world of matter, form, and force, being a lower vibration of energy are aspects of the same reality, and is therefore inseparable.  This great Truth establishes the unequivocal unity of MIND and Matter, and the manifesting vibratory energy of DIVINE INTELLIGENCE.
This Truth maybe extremely difficult for many a human Mind to conceive and comprehend that such a thing, as mentioned in the  preceding paragraphs could exist because of the continuous habitual tendencies of humans to "idolize" and ascribe human qualities to a SPIRIT that has no form, shape, boundary, or locality in Space and Time.  When this mental habit is removed, the human Mind will  understand and extend its vision beyond the world of matter, form and force, with a clarity of vision that will far surpass the ability of the eyesight that is already capable of "sensing" and viewing a range of objects in deep space.  None of the lower bodily senses are capable of sensing the quality, quantity, and range of objects at such great distances, of which only the wonderful sense of eyesight is capable of performing. 
Imagine for a moment what Consciousness and Mind is capable of doing when more attention is focused on the cultivation of these two subjects.  Personal Spiritual cultivation and development is a research of these two higher senses which lies largely dormant within human nature because of the lack of Knowledge, personal awareness, and the effect of imprisonment by preconceived notions of a materialistic and gravitational bound civilization.  In this state of Mind, can these Spiritual sciences never be incorporated into the educational systems of the world because of the inability to recognize the latent powers that exists in Conscious and sub Conscious Mind.  This is the only area of human Consciousness that is capable of providing a permanent solution to society's ills by giving "willing" individuals who have the desire to educate themselves, the opportunity in Spiritual development and growth by giving them a sense of direction, mental firmness, poise, and control, in the conduct of their own thinking and lives.  They will dominate their own character, qualities and moods and contribute a focused effort of peace and unity to a mentally undisciplined civilization that is tossed around like helpless pawns on the Chessboard of Life.
Spiritual development is not to be confused with the established dogma and doctrine of most personal, and organized religious belief systems which strife to control their members and the only source of their income, subtle as it maybe.  It is the  only source of power they are able to recognize and understand, while Spiritual development is of universal nature and requires a personal commitment and willingness to cultivate the latent power which lays dormant within all of us. 
The cultivation of this Knowledge will enhance and multiply the ability of psychologists and psychiatrists to perform a service to humanity that is unprecedented in permanently solving the many ills of human nature.   Less dependency on mind altering drugs becomes possible as the psychologist and psychiatrist will use the amazing attributes of human nature in the modification of chemicals that are manufactured by the individual's own body, simply by changing their point of view in life, a change in attitude, and giving their patients a meaningful sense of direction and purpose in Life.  Something that is not easily accomplished at the moment.  If these professions were to accomplish this, they would be more of a Spiritual adept and operate beyond the parameters of the scientific mind.  Few, if any, would be sufficiently bold enough to step into the "Unknown."  An intellectual and artificial approach to this aspect of the human mind can only produce mechanical like indoctrinated results which lack the flexibility of the Intuitive Mind.   Most people have no idea what an Intuitive Mind is.  Often, the Intuitive Mind is mistaken for the "Instinctive Mind" which has the quality of the undeveloped creatures in nature and is an aspect of the lower parts or planes of thought within the human mind.
The elements of "Truth" may be discovered through mathematical equations and used by science, and to a degree be of great commercial value. It is useless to the common person who wanders aimlessly through life for the lack of knowledge. All their material possessions will not answer their quest to know the meaning and deep secrets of Life.
THE ALL is no respecter of persons, religion, creed, skin color, ethnic background, government, or nation, because IT is the unconditional causation of all Life that enables all of the above. THE ALL enfolds All in unconditional LIFE and LOVE and neither favors nor judges a person or race regardless of belief, or what a person has done, or not done. THE ALL perpetuates the immutable Universal Cosmic Law without cessation or interruption by which every human will judge themselves according to the choices that are made on the Mental Plane and the resulting manifestations that follow in each person's Life. Each person bears the responsibility of his or her own destiny in Life --YOU are the playwright of your own Life.  
Next time when you, with uplifted Mind and keen awareness, view the surrounding environment and observe abundant LIFE and the various Life forms in Nature, and turn your eyes skyward at night to view the stars above, remember this Principle and see what inspiration will befall your Mind....  You will never again look at a tree and see it as just a tree, a flower as just a flower, an animal as just an animal, a human as just a human, but you will view All as sacred manifestations of LIFE.  LIFE is the common denominator in the various planes of manifested Life forms on the ascending/descending scale of Life and Being.  The primordial causation of LIFE is, "THE ALL," or GOD, in All.  LIFE is what we share with all of manifested NATURE. 
When you can view, a flower, a tree, a human, an animal, a mineral, as a unique and sacred manifestation of LIFE, then, you are seeing SPIRIT, the common denominator of all LIFE with the understanding of your Mind.  Your Mind is capable of seeing a reality that eyes cannot see.  When you see this non-material realm, you can't help but stand in stupefied awe at the composition and function of the Universe.  "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see GOD" (sermon on the mount).
If you wish to see Pranic substance (SPIRIT), go outside and stare at the sky for a few moments squelching the noisy mental activity of your Mind.  Allow your Mind to align itself in silence for a few moments and with open Mind, look at the bright sky and look.  After a few minutes or sooner, you will see the rapidly traveling light globules that circle and shoot through the atmosphere.  You will find that the atmosphere is always very busy and filled with the LIFE activity of THE ALL.   You can see this activity everywhere, even within the living space of your home.   You are looking at the LIFE giving Creative activity of SPIRIT.  It is NOT your imagination or blood cells traveling in your eyeballs, no matter what authorities on the subject tell you otherwise.  This observation can be a very refreshing and assuring experience to our Minds.  It shows that none of us can ever be lost or alone in LIFE and the Universe.  We become lost and alone only by the inventions of our own Minds.
We, as well as other Life forms actually breath this Pranic substance into our lungs and skin and it saturates the entire nervous system of our bodies with this LIFE giving substance.  When the entrance of this substance becomes restricted in the human body because of stress or other restrictive agents, disease appears on the scene as the organs are ailing for the lack of this Life Force. 
Pranic substance is present in our food because it is absorbed and saturated in the Plane of Mineral, Vegetable, and Animal Mind, all are in the food chain below the Plane of Human Mind.  Humans consume for food all that is below the Plane of Human Mind.  Pollution on any of these planes is a displacement of the elements in Nature and will interfere with the absorption of Pranic substance in our foods.  The first sign of this is an  increase of incurable diseases in humans.   Artificial fertilizer is a form of pollution that brings imbalance to the elements of Nature and can kill the substance altering microbes of the soil. 
Pranic substance is much too tenuous to register with the state of the art electronic instrumentation.  All of Life and Being on every Plane of Life relies on this substance for their living sustenance that is everywhere present.  The more you practice in observing this phenomena, the more keen your eyesight becomes in seeing this tenuous substance because you have commissioned the eyes with your Mind to see these things.
At night when you lay on your back in the dark, look at the ceiling in your bedroom, and you will again see the vibratory energy of SPIRIT.  This may be spooky for some people, but don't be afraid of this phenomenon because it is the LIFE giving substance of SPIRIT that enables you to live and have your Being in Life and living.  It is there regardless if you look or close your eyes.  Even with the eyes closed, you can still see this substance because it interpenetrates all things and transcends space, time and locality.  This is the Energy and Nature of SPIRIT. 
A trained and practicing eye can see a strange three dimensional vision of Prana that goes beyond the boundaries of the ceiling. You are actually looking at two Planes at the same time, a wonderful strange sight that is difficult to explain because it transcends space and time.  You can talk to it if you wish because "IT" is fully aware of your presence.  It is not possible to view this phenomenon in a scientific laboratory by using instrumentation, but then, on the other hand, nothing is impossible.  It would be best to keep an open Mind.
If you do not believe this realm to be a Truth, then your Mind will not be able to focus on this substance and to you it is non-existent as the Subconscious Mind shuts out and removes this reality from your Conscious awareness.  Only what you "believe" and what you are willing and able to perceive as reality remains.  It becomes your own personal reality that you have manifested in your own life.  This will prevent a person from viewing realities beyond (As Above, so below,....) the narrow bandwidth of materialistic views and it becomes the only limited reality they are able to understand.  Discussion of this subject between those who are able to see and those who do not becomes senseless and impossible as each attempts to defend their turf.  Nevertheless, the LIFE Principle or NATURE of SPIRIT will always operate independently from our believes and views and unconditionally manifest and sustain all of LIFE without exception or exclusion. 
Do not allow the superstitious religious rhetoric of devils and demons prevent you from mentally coming into close contact with Omnipresent SPIRIT.  These individuals live in so much fear that upward progress for them is almost non-existent.  They do not understand the Omnipresence of THE ALL.   All they have to do is remove that fear and allow themselves to trust SPIRIT.   They will discover that it is very real indeed and not limited to the walls of buildings or that it exists only between the covers of their religious literature.
When you become accustomed and comfortable in viewing this reality, there will be additional advancement in seeing more things as you advance in your Seership.  Eventually you will be able to view the Astral Planes with your own Mind, which is beyond the reach of the ordinary person.  When this happens, just close your eyes and let the Omnipresent SPIRIT be your guide.  Learn to trust SPIRIT.  Any degree of fear will immediately terminate this experience and prevent a person from experiencing a wonderful journey in SPIRIT without leaving the body.  Our Mind is a wonderful tenuous and superfluous substance that can transcend all Planes of Life and Being and is not limited to any locality in space and time.  Meditation in this area is very refreshing and revitalizing to our Being.  A continuous mental focus into this area, will increase the attention span from a few seconds to many hours when practiced regularly.  This is a region of MIND, a non-local field of Intelligence from which we can derive increased Knowledge.  No matter what degree of Knowledge is derived from this region, it will always be a relative Knowledge and it is never absolute because of the Infinite stature of THE ALL.  Learning with an open Mind is an endless evolutionary journey in the understanding of LIFE that prevents the boredom of limited thinking.
We will always learn, progress, and advance on the scale of LIFE, continuously advancing higher upon the Scale and reaching Planes, realms, and regions of Mind that are unutterable....words that do not exist or have not yet been invented to describe what we observe.  We can only stand in silent awe and learn to become accustomed to the new things we observe.  What can or shall we say to a struggling world?
There are those who will accuse this experience as a hallucination, trance, or hypnotic spell.  When a careful observation is made of their views, you will recognize the narrow bandwidth of their conscious awareness which has shut them out of the realities above, as well as below the plane of their awareness and being.  There is no need to become angry with these people because they too are doing the best they can with what they know.  Always be compassionate and understanding of their views because they too have their foot set upon the Path.  We are NOT judges of the Great LAW, but doers, fulfilling the LAW and using it to our advantage and to utilize this power in the service of struggling humanity, to assist those who will allow us....  Universal Cosmic LAW, when understood and utilized properly becomes our refuge and escape from limited and mortal thinking. 
THE ALL is "OUR FATHER," the true non-biological Father of all humanity.
As the struggling finite human mind becomes increasingly aware of the Causation of all Life, it cannot help but to stand in great awe, and realize that the Universe is the glory of the INFINITE MIND and that we all live, move, and have our being within GOD. The Mental nature of the Universe explains the various psychic phenomena that have so intrigued and baffled the world by displaying mental powers that defy scientific treatment.
This principle may be utilized to accomplish Mental Transmutation.  Mental Transmutation has a very profound effect upon the elements of the body depending upon the mental state the individual maintains. Mental Transmutation is a mental art in the manipulation of the waveform aspect of the atom to cause change in the physical aspect of particles.  Particles can be mentally "caused" to remain only in their waveform aspect in the absence of physicality.   It is possible that an electronic device can be created to accomplish this, but the energy requirement would be enormous and may not be feasible or affordable to society.  However, the human Mind is in possession of Infinite "free" Energy and can do it better than any mechanical device.  A mechanical device is created because of the lack of awareness of ones own potentialities.  Humanity is still looking "outward" for answers from their surrounding environment while all the answers lay hidden deep within human nature, it lays dormant and untapped.  A sleeping giant waiting to be awakened.
The state of health in the body depends on the Mentalism of each individual, a belief that either allows or disallows an individual to view reality as it really is.  Health is a normal condition of the human body and disease is largely caused by ignorance and the violation and disobedience of natural laws of living and thinking. 
The astonishing and often baffling conclusions in the double blind studies of placebos are influenced by the Principle of Mentalism. People are always creating placebos, with either positive or negative results.
Human combustion is often caused by a type of mental alchemy that creates dangerous chemical mixtures in the body. It can most likely be traced to the state of mind that an individual maintains. Science has yet to determine its true cause.  Many scientists do not believe this to be true.

"As above, so below; as below, so above."
-The Kybalion
The great Second Hermetic Principle embodies the truth that there is a harmony, agreement, and correspondence between the several planes of Manifestation, Life and Being.  This truth is a truth because all that is included in the Universe emanates from the same source, and the same laws, principles, and characteristics apply to each unit, or combination of units of activity, as each manifests its own phenomena upon its own plane.  The Kybalion

IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Principle of Correspondence manifests the Brow Chakra in the human body, the center of Enlightenment, Spirit knowledge, Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, the ability to penetrate through the veil of the particle world and peer deep into the realm of SPIRIT.  Things are seen in The Mind that are not possible by Human eyes alone.  It is not subject or bound by Space and Time.  The Brow Chakra furthers its manifestation of the Pineal glandthat is responsible for the production of Melatonin and is believed to help the body adjust to stress.  The Pineal gland governs the waking and sleeping cycles of the body. The exact nature of the Pineal gland is unknown to science.

This principle enables the phenomenon of Discernment, Intuition, Hunches, etc., and the newly coined word, "Remote Viewing."  All are aspects of the Intuitive Mind unlike the more familiar Instinctive Mind that operates on the lower plane of human Consciousness and is animalistic in nature.  The Instinctive Mind acts and reacts on external impressions and utilizes deceptive methods for its self preservation and survival.  It is a typical quality of the Animal Plane of Mind.  Humans who maintain themselves in the lower nature of their consciousness display the animalistic qualities of cunning by using deceptive methods and practices in order to self preserve, and further their greedy cause.   These types of people are also subject to become victimized by another of the same plane of thought who invents a better deceptive method of capturing his or her victim.  Humans who deceive are likewise subject to the deception of their own methods.   They deceive and are being deceived, they steal and are being stolen from, they hate and are being hated, they murder and are likely to become murdered...., etc.   People of same Minds (The Principle of Mentalism) tends to polarize (The Principle of Polarity) and attract each other, and flock together --friends in misery.  Unbeknownst to them, all are subject to the operations of the Principle of Correspondence that caused them to flock on the same plane of thought based on their choices in Life and they are responsible for the final outcome of their own lives (The Principle of Cause and Effect).  Like the weeds in the field that are separated from the wheat...., all are subject to Universal Cosmic Law.
Unlike the Instinctive Mind, the Intuitive Mind can see keenly through any untruths and is perfectly capable of distinguishing between a Truth and a deception.  It cannot be deceived.  The Intuitive Mind is well capable of looking ahead into the future of the constant moving timeline of the "now" as it moves along the time grid into the future.  Intuition belongs to the to higher plane of human Consciousness and is a perfect guiding navigational instrument of Life to those who will focus upon and learn to develop this region of their Mind.  The Intuitive Mind is a manifestation of the Universal Principle of Correspondence and is present in every living human in varying degrees of development.  The Principle of Polarity maintains both, the Intuitive and Instinctive Mind, with equal representation within Human Nature, while The Principle of Cause and Effect manifests the final outcome of those choices.
As mentioned before, like the Principles of mathematics Spiritual Principles must be adhered to in order to accomplish advancement and growth in the Arcane Knowledge.  Humans must adhere to mathematical laws in order to calculate properly and to conduct world commerce and to calculate the trajectory of a space ship as an example. So must the human Mind adhere to the Mental Principles upon which the Human Mind is based in order to conduct a proper Mind and a meaningful Life and living.  It cannot be accomplished on a theoretical belief system that is all to often based on premature cognitive commitments.   When the Principles of Spirit are recognized and adhered to like the principles of arithmetic, then can unity of Mind be accomplished and there is no argument or disagreement.  Navigation and negotiating through Life becomes effortless.  The Intuitive Mind is the only aspect of Mind that is capable of seeing and recognizing SPIRIT, while the Instinctive Mind concerns itself only with itself and the tangible things of Life it can understand. 
Correspondence enables that which is normally unknowable, to become known to the individual who learns and knows how to use this Principle. Some use it in a conscious and deliberate manner while others may not even be aware that they are using this Principle. When used knowingly, it will enhance the clarity of vision and enables the Mind to penetrate the most secret of secrets.  It can shed light on many a dark paradox. 
All this is possible because of the function of the manifesting "Brow Chakra" enabling the Mind to penetrate through and beyond the Physical Plane.  This Chakra dilates and becomes enlarged in the Spiritually developing and growing person and enables the increased inflow of Spiritual Knowledge, or scientific knowledge beyond the range of the objective world or Physical Plane.   Psychic power in various degrees and stages of development is present in every human and is often used either with or without awareness in the seizing up of the intentions of other humans.  Many are using these powers for their own egotistic and selfish reasons.
Law Enforcement people, though, they may not be aware, have developed this psychic power to a higher degree than most ordinary humans because of its constant daily use on the job and often catch the dangerous criminal who leaves a trail of mental clouds, atomic, and sub-atomic particles departing from their bodies that is unique to the fleeing individual.  This trail of tenuous substance can be psychically traced to its originator.  The more psychically developed a person is, the greater the psychic perception.  The truth is, that no person gets away with anything even though they may think that they are.  They are subject to the immutable and inescapable Mental Law of "Cause and Effect."  Thoughts are subtle forms of "things" that our body constantly releases like the vapor of a tea kettle and creates the atmosphere of character that people will psychically sense of each other in varying degrees as either being a pleasant or unpleasant person.   Multiply this by the many individuals of a community, city, county, or country, and a unique collective mental character, like a mental hologram, that is created and sensed by the visiting stranger who will feel either comfortable or uncomfortable with the atmosphere of a given community.  A community who has an established collective mental cloud of hostility draped over their community for example, will have a negative adverse effect on the visitor who will psychically feel the unpleasant atmosphere of greed, hatred, and criminal tendencies of that community.  They are unable to stay in that atmosphere unless they themselves share the same character and qualities of that community.
COMMERCE AND THE SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES OF ETHICS
This Mental Principle applies to the corporate world as well as in the work place of people who are affected and reflect the corporate consciousness of the top man who is responsible for its operations.  If the responsible leader of a company or corporation is of low, abusing and undisciplined moral character, he or she will establish the mental character of that company or corporation in a given community that will be intuitively sensed by the customer and the employees who work for them.  The first sign of this condition is a high turnover of employees who are unable to maintain their working life in an oppressive and impoverished atmosphere.  Employees will constantly compete with each other even to the point of underhandedness and back-stabbing their fellow workers.  This occurs because human nature is prone to maliciousness as each worker is attempting to protect their security with the belief that others are attempting to encroach on their safety.  This is not a team oriented environment as it creates an extremely tense and violent but unseen atmosphere that can be sensed by the Intuitive Mind in varying degrees (Correspondence).  In this negative state will the cost of a corporation be driven upwards as some, if not most, of their workers will make sure that the other fellow should not succeed.  This creates an atmosphere of disharmony in a corporate structure with resulting higher operating costs because of disgruntled employees.  There has to be a proper "Correspondence" between the responsibility of the top person and the person at the bottom of the structure to create unity and harmony.  This state will give flair to a company or corporation in their community that will even be noticed by the customer.  On the other side of the coin are there workers who will take advantage of the goodness that a company has developed for their workers.  Why?  
Spiritual Principles and development cannot be avoided even in a seemingly Godless corporate environment in its day to day operations.  When humans who work for a living do not possess a Universal Spiritual (not religious) background backed by solid Principles, not of our own invention, what will their source or reason be for an ethical behavior?  When there is no known Mental Law or Principle to go by?  A self made ethical behavior without a cause is for the most part on shaky ground and can cause a person to "turn on a dime" so to speak.  From an ethical to an unethical behavior at the blink of an eye.  Honest business men with a good reputation all of a sudden find themselves entangled in a legal battle with their government and their business may become dissolved in the process.  All this occurs because they failed to recognize an aspect of Life that is ruled by Universal Mental Principles that governs human behavior and resulting consequences of their actions.  Ignorant workers who have no Spiritual Principles to go by have no reason to adhere to the responsibility of their work.  They are driven by their self made ambitions devoid of any Spiritual Knowledge that would have given them a reason why they should be responsible and ethical not only toward the company they work for but also toward their coworkers.  
Coercion by rule and policy is utilized only because employees have nothing else to go by and thus they must be forced to comply or lose their job.  A Spiritual developed person will take up his or her responsibility in the great game of Life and has no need for coercion.  They willingly enlist their cooperation for the company they work for without the malicious backstabbing of their coworkers.  They live in harmony and their thoughts follow clearly defined patterns of unity and harmony that enables them to focus on their work that they will accomplish with efficiency.  The peace and harmony they learned to create at home, they will take with them in their work environment while the undeveloped person will do likewise but with different results.  Spiritual Correspondence in all facets of Life is unavoidable and is the only aspect of reality that will give humans a reason to be responsible in the great game of LIFE.  Other methods may be tried and experimented with, but ultimately it will be discovered that there are well defined Mental Principles to create a proper ethical Human Mind with enormous expanded awareness.  This is Spiritual Knowledge....
Spiritual Knowledge will give our intuitive abilities a deliberate focused attention in a direction of thoughts that can be shot like bullets at a given target and exercising great influence on the unsuspecting Mind, or any physical objects.  Because of this, is Spiritual Knowledge important in the enfoldment of a proper Mind lest this power becomes abused by an undeveloped mind of a low grade.   This Knowledge of power is protected by the undeveloped person's own "unbelief" and he or she will never aspire to that level of Knowledge and awareness.  It is interesting to note that the more advanced electronic technology becomes in the electronic controls of aircraft in flight or any other mechanical device controlled by high technological electronic means, the more it approaches the higher mental planes in operation and therefore becomes increasingly susceptible to "mental manipulation" which can override the controls.  Mental manipulation does not necessarily mean that a person is aware of their mental causation as most individuals do not view "thoughts" as things and therefore their thoughts are not power driven and are for the most part harmless.  But when a large number of individuals of "negative" thoughts accumulate, say in an aircraft for example, the power and influence of their  collective thoughts are exponentially increased and unknowingly exercise a great influence on the controls and fate of the aircraft they are flying.   Negative people exercise great influence on the mechanical devices they operate and more so in the field of high technology.  People of a high degree of noble thoughts create an atmosphere of harmony even with the atomic particles of the devices they operate while those who operate on a low level of thoughts will have the opposite effect.   This is because our Physical or material world we see with our eyes and the Mental Universe, are not separate entities but are integrated facets of reality and therefore not as physical or material as we think or believe it is --The Great Principle of Mentalism.
When the human race comes to the realization that "thoughts" are tenuous substances, and not just mere nothings, that fills the earth's atmosphere with a character of either good or bad or a combination of both, a deeper respect for the human mind will emerge in the Mind of man.  When it is realized that the Mind is a "real" non-material substance and is recognized as such, it will be found that in the near future the Mentalism of humans will be integrated with the machines they operate.   One might ask, "How is this possible?"   Because of the Mental nature of the Universe that is governed by the Principle of MENTALISM.  True Spiritual advancement and development in the understanding of Human Nature will cause a sling shot effect in science and technology because of a larger portal opening of the Human Mind.  Things previously thought to be non-existent or impossible will awe the Human Mind and a greater understanding of the Spiritual nature of the Universe will be realized that will cause Man and machines to integrate making space travel possible that was previously not in the field of awareness of the collective conscious of the human race.  Humans will utilize the Principle of Mentalism to manipulate their environment and the machines they operate and come to the realization of the importance to use this Great Principle properly lest they become destroyed by their own wrongful actions.  A little Knowledge is a dangerous thing when not applied properly.  Because of this, is it important for the proper Spiritual development and advancement of the Human Mind that can only be accomplished in the understanding of SPIRIT and the LAW by which it governs the Universe. 
The religions of the world must awaken to this great Truth lest they become caught off guard.  The survival of all religions depends on their flexibility in the realization and adaptation of the continuously advancing and developing Human Mind into SPIRIT which constantly expands in a greater field of awareness.   Outdated believes, dogmas, doctrines, literature that hold no substance in reality will fall away from the human race and causing the religions to dissolve when they fail to accept the greater changes in SPIRIT that are coming very soon and is already in progress.   Fraudulent principles of living by many humans become exposed to the public's eye and causing a very deep shame that is damaging to their ego and their ability to properly navigate themselves through Life.  If they fail to accept change, then "death" will be their only merciful escape from their reality.  But as always, nothing is ever lost or left behind, even though for some it may not be a pleasant experience because of their refusal to accept change.  Because of their rigidity they become brittle and break easily.  
Constant change is the upward force of Evolution driven by the INFINITE MIND of THE ALL of which none of us can escape its progression through Space and Time.  Time is a constant measurement of this evolutionary process as our bodies, our immediate environment, the Solar System, the Galaxy travels at a dizzying speed of two million miles an hour through Space to some unknown destiny of which we can only have a Mental glimpse of this powerful and wonderful  guidance of SPIRIT and its utilization of The Great Principle of MENTALISM.  Spiritual Knowledge removes all fear of uncertainty and death because of the Knowledge that nothing happens by accident or at random, but that there is a definite causation back of and behind all things that defies scientific treatment and the self imposed belief systems.
Our thoughts have a far reaching effect that extend deep into the Laws of Nature and can affect all the elements of our planet.   When it is realized, and firmly established in the human Mind that thoughts are "things" that dwell in the atmosphere of our immediate surrounding environment and beyond, humans would become more careful what thoughts they entertain and maintain because of a long lasting record of their Mind that will continue in the atmosphere long after the individual has passed from his or her incarnated Plane and entertaining other humans of the future with thoughts left behind.  Each thought maintains a unique vibration that coexists in the same space and polarize with similar mental clouds of similar grade and creating a collective mindset character of either a positive or negative nature. 
The SPIRIT behind evolution drives all human thoughts Divineward or Spiritward and causing humans to aspire on the scale of Life to higher Mental Planes of Being while others will cycle between their bodily and unbodily state of Being.  The cycling Human Soul discovers that with each return to the incarnated state, that it has returned to a reality that has continued to advance to higher aspirations of Spirituality and technology even in their temporary absence from the Great Physical Plane.  Humans who have advanced and aspired to become Masters of the Plane they dwell upon and the Planes below will bear witness of the constant change throughout time and accumulating constant Knowledge and Wisdom without the discontinuity or interruption of the cyclic process of Life, death, and rebirth that ensnare most humans in the beginning-less cycles of RHYTHM.  They have learnt to rise to the Plane above and subjecting to their powers all the elements in Nature and their surrounding environment to the higher LAW they utilize and thus escaping death and the grave --this is Immortality.   Immortality can not be accomplished and established by "believe," but by the Knowledge of how the Mental Universe and its active functioning LAWS operate.  Then, and only then, can we establish a path, using our Wisdom and Understanding that will lead us away from the cyclic process of Life, death, and rebirth.  This is the transformation, or "renewal" of the Mind that will profoundly change how we view Life and the Universe and thus mentally change the effects of the cycles on our bodies.   It is difficult for the race consciousness that is bound to organized traditional believes and expectations to have "Immortality" mentioned without a response of scorning and mocking because of the comfort it has taken in the familiarity of physical death.  Race consciousness takes comfort in this because it gives them the "knowledge" that one day they will die and it is a familiar path to them.  When Immortality is mentioned, it is viewed as a thread to their "comfortable" and "familiar" reality because of the effort that is required to accomplish a renewal and transformation of their consciousness.  The following is an excerpt from the "Divine Pymander" regarding the "cause of mortality and Immortality."
THE ALL or Pymander, The Reality of Mortality and IMMORTALITY
Excerpts from, The Second book called PYMANDER.
Page 32
Excerpts of a Spiritual conversation between Hermes Trismegistus and The Pymander.  Pymander means "Shepard of Man."
40.  Pymander:  But he that through the Error of Love, loved the Body, abideth, wandering in darkness (ignorance), sensible (bodily consciousness), suffering the things of death(physical dissolution).41.  Trismegistus:  But why do they that are ignorant, sin so much, that they should therefore be deprived of immortality?
42.  Pymander:  Thou seemest not to have understood what thou has heard.

43.  
Trism.  Peradventure I seem to thee; but I both understand and remember them.

44.   Pymander:  I am glad, for thy sake, if thou understoodest them.45.  Trismegistus:  Tell me why are they worthy of death, that are in death?

46. Pymander:  Because there goeth a sad and dismal darkness before its body; of which darkness is the moist Nature; of which moist Nature, the Body consisteth in the sensible World (
conscious perception), from whence death is derived: Hast thou understood this aright?

47.  
Trism.  But why, or how, doth he that understands himself, go or pass into God?

48.  Pymander.  That which the word of God said, say I; Because the Father of all things consists of Life and Light, whereof Man is Made.

49.  Trism.  Thou sayest very well.

50.  Pymander.  God and the Father is Light and Life, of which Man is made.  If there fore thou learn and believe thyself to be of the Life and Light, thou shalt again pass into Life.

51.  
Trism.  But yet tell me more, O my Mind, how I shall again go into Life.

52.  Pymander.  God saith, Let the Man endued with a Mind, mark, consider, and know himself well.
53.  Trism.  Have not all a mind?

54.  Pymander.  Take heed what thou sayest, for I the Mind come unto men that are holy and good, pure and mericful, and that live piously and religiously; and my presence is a help unto them.  And forthwith they know all things, and lovingly they supplicate and propitiate the Father; and blessing him, they give him thanks, and sing hymns unto him, being ordered and directed by filial Affection, and natural Love: And before they give up their Bodies to the death of them, they hate their Senses, knowing their Works and Operations.
55.  Rather I that am the Mind itself, will not suffer the Operations or Works, which happen or belong to the body, to be finished and brought to perfection in them: but being the Porter and Door-keeper, I will shut up the entrances of Evil, and cut off the thoughtful desires of filthy works.
56.  But to the foolish, and evil, and wicked, and envious and covetous, and murderous, and profane, I am far off giving place to the revenging Demon, which applying unto him the sharpness of fire, tormenteth such a man sensible, and armeth him the more to all wickedness, that they may obtain the greater punishment. 

57.  And such a one never ceaseth, having unfulfillable desires, and unsatiable concupiscences, and always fighting in darkness (ignorance); for the Demon afflicts and tormenteth him continually, and increaseth the fire upon him more and more.  


It will be continuously mentioned in this web page the analogy of mathematical laws in that humans know that they must abide by mathematical laws  in order to accomplish proper equations and so it is with the LAW of SPIRIT.  The many individual paths that have been mentioned by many teachers, and individual believes, are individual "beliefs" that must eventually be surrendered in order to follow a singular path that is based on LAW of SPIRIT.  The LAW of SPIRIT is the only way to accomplish perfect unity and harmony that will abolish governments, religious belief systems, jails, the military, courts, religious leaders, etc.  
There was a time in a long forgotten and forlorn past, long before the Jurassic age, of great civilizations that have existed based on these PRINCIPLES but as always because of the Polarity of "good and evil" in human nature there are those who deviated from the LAW of SPIRIT and falling downward and stepping backward on the scale of LIFE and who are compelled to establish religious priests, leaders, governments, and laws that took the place of the lost Knowledge of the Principles of SPIRIT in order for the fallen race to survive.  The fallen race is compelled to retrace its steps over the backward road it has trodden and drawn upward thru the spiral of evolution by the will of SPIRIT.  What happened to the other part of that civilization?  They continued their Spiritward journey and separated from the fallen mortal bound civilization, long, long ago, toward the higher Planes of Being and aspiring to the status of Archangels and gods but they will always remain subservient to higher learning and aspirations of Infinite SPIRIT which are unutterable to the sound of the languages.  Humans who aspire to the status of gods and archangels can never equal the Infinite and absolute presence of THE ALL.  There is only one "GOD" or "THE ALL" and there is no other, whose inner nature will always remain unknowable because of its enormous Infinite stature and encompassing, permeating, and interpenetrating, all of physical reality of which nothing can escape its INFINITE MIND.  All this is possible because of the Mental Nature of the Universe and is therefore a never ending learning subject in the acquisition of KNOWLEDGE.  This learning process affects the Human body in that as its "Mentalism" aspires and evolves to higher states of consciousness with greater reality awareness, the human body will accommodate this change and discards outdated physical features that are no longer required on the higher planes of Mind.  The change will be very slow to our civilization without being aware of the occurrence.  But, to those who have accomplished a degree of mental effort for their own Spiritual advancement will make a quantum leap in their own evolutionary process and they become as changed beings thru the transformation of their own Mind.  They will live in piety with a deep respect in their awareness of the Great Creator at work in manifesting the Universe and they will avail themselves to the service of others who seek the same.
What we see with our eyes or ocular vision is our so called "material world" and is the physical reality as we mundanely understand it.  The work of SPIRIT back of and behind our "mundane understanding" of materialism is not visible to the unconscious individual who subscribes to that level of consciousness.  We see, for example, the activity and changes of the Earth we dwell upon even though we do not pay much attention to the forces at work that cause change such as, for example, the growing of flowers and trees and then the diminishing process of decay that returns the vegetation to the soil only to be replenished again in the future because we have no reason to pay attention to these things. This is the work of SPIRIT that keeps everything in a constant state of motion (evolution) and change because its LIFE FORCE permeates and interpenetrates all these things with LIFE.  You see, THE ALL is not seen with our eyes but with the understanding of our Minds.   The understanding of the Mind is a Mental vision of "seeing."  "Understanding" itself cannot be seen with eyes but describes a something not belonging to our physical reality as we can see it.  The words written on this page were accomplished by utilizing the Principle of Correspondence to peer into deep into SPIRIT and may give some readers a strange feeling when viewing the internal reality of our existence.  It is important that all these things become the reader's own experience so that you can see it with the understanding of your own Mind.
The work and operation of the Principle of CORRESPONDENCE is very much a non-physical process and power that operates back of and behind all things physical.  We can only see its "effects" in our material world but not its "cause."  Therefore, can GOD only be seen with the Understanding of our Minds.  Being aware, and Understanding with our Mind is a vision of the Brow Chakra that is manifested by the Principle of Correspondence of GOD'S INFINITE MIND that enables us to penetrate deep into the reality of SPIRIT and acquire Knowledge and Understanding.  Not only do we have physical eyes to see our "material world" that is nothing more than the "effect" of the work of SPIRIT but we have the ability to penetrate with the Understanding of our Mind deep into the reality of CAUSE and EFFECT.  Our physical enhanced eyes can now see and understand the work of The INFINITE CREATOR.  Our ocular vision has now been enhanced by our deep and far reaching Mind in that we not only see the physical world of effects devoid of the operating "causation" back of and behind our materialistic view of reality but we also have an understanding of why the material world behaves like it does because of the "understanding" of the causal force back of and behind our "material world."  SPIRIT can only be seen "in" the Understanding of the Mind while our eyes will bear witness of the Great Creator at work in the manifestation of our physical reality and the Universe.  This is Spiritual KNOWLEDGE or "Philosophy."  Knowledge will bring "Understanding."  Understanding will bring "Wisdom."  Wisdom will bring "results."  Below is an excerpt from the "Divine Pymander."  "Religious," not meaning as in known organized religions, but the Universal Religion of Knowledge.  The words below were written long before Moses or the birth of organized religion that we are familiar with today. 

1. O my Son, write this first book, both for Humanity sake and for Piety towards God.
2. For there can be no religion more true or just, than to know the things that are; and to acknowledge thanks for all things, to him that made them, which thing I shall not cease continually to do.
3. What then should a man do, O Father, to lead his life well seeing there is nothing here true? 
(Our mundane materialistic view)
4. Be Pious and Religious, O my Son; for he that doth so, is the best and highest Philosopher; and without Philosophy, it is impossible ever to attain the height and exactness of Piety or Religion.
5. But he that shall learn and study the things that are, and how they are ordered and governed, and by whom, and for what cause, or to what end, will acknowledge thanks to the Workman, as to a good Father, an excellent Nurse, and a faithful Steward, and he that gives thanks shall be Pious or Religious, and he that is Religious shall know both where the truth is, and what it is, and learning that, he will be yet more and more Religious.

Hermes Trismegistus, "His First Book."

Divine Pymander (1601)
Albert Einstein utilized his Brow Chakra to a very high degree in that he was able to understand processes that most of us were unable to understand.  Utilizing the Mental Principle of Correspondence, perhaps unknowingly, he was able to penetrate deep into the manifested reality of the Universe and discovered that there is a "relativity" or "Correspondence" between all things in the Universe.  There will be other physicists that will take this even further, some will turn into philosophers when they can see their  equations turn into real life before them.  Knowledge will silence the Mind while ignorance will occupy the mind with wondering and wandering to and fro.... 
In the Truth of the Universe, there is no such thing as a "secret" or "privacy" as there is nothing that can escape the "Principle of Mentalism," of which each of us is a holographic image of the Creator; a drop of the great SPIRIT ocean; a particle of the shores of the OMNIPRESENT and INFINITE MIND of GOD who enfolds all things in LIFE and LOVE of which there are no words to express or describe this aspect of reality and can only be experienced on an individual level.  One to one with GOD.
The Brow Chakra, the third, or psychic eye   is the means by which the departing "mental clouds" are sensed as they are constantly created and released by the human aura and has a far reaching effect into the atmosphere and surrounding elements of Nature.   These "mental clouds" remain long after the departure of a human form from the Physical Plane whose Mind created the "mental clouds" which are often entertained by unsuspecting people who are not aware of its existence and who are unaware of the function of their own Minds.  Most people are influenced by the mental clouds of each other and that of long departed humans, and unconsciously (sub-conscious) act upon them without being aware.  Therefore is it important to keep a watchful eye on our own Minds lest we become deceived by the mental clouds of others.  Thoughts are constantly created and released and are "demons" in a true sense of the word.  The belief that "demons" are evil spirits comes from Greek Mythology which many societies and religions have adopted and incorporated in their beliefs.
When hatred and resulting civil disobedience or war erupts in a city, or a country, little is it realized that its cause is a polarization (The Principle of Polarity) of mental clouds that have been released and accumulated by its citizenry, each contributing to the mental cloud that now hovers over their city or country like a huge ugly dark cloud which energies are about to become released like a bold of lightning.  When this energy is released, as it has to go somewhere, the results are rioting, war, violence, and civil disobedience of all sorts and regrettably, the loss of human life.  When this energy has taken its course, the same mental clouds will build once again, unless, a change is accomplished in the direction of human thought.  A Mental change of direction is the key to diffusing a negative mental cloud before its energy becomes discharged in violence. 
Many of you who read these lines are involved in the mental diffusion of these clouds.  You are the ones who will bring Knowledge and change to the energy of our Planet.  You are supported by the Great LAW in your work, for the LAW will always work itself out in Life of that you can rest assured.
This is the Mental Correspondence that humans have with each other and their surrounding environment and is governed by the Universal Principle of CORRESPONDENCE.   The careful observer will take note of the other Universal Principles that are involved in these events such as POLARITY, and CAUSE AND EFFECT.  This Knowledge and awareness puts the responsibility squarely upon our shoulders as to how we think, act, and behave, and is not without resulting consequences.
Correspondence establishes the interconnectedness that exists between all things in the Universe and keeps all things relative to each other. Known to the adepts and masters of ancient Egypt and others, the substance of the Ethereal, the Spirit substance or web that pervades and interpenetrates the Universe, of which there are seven Ethers instead of one. This substance acts as a medium for the transmission of light, heat, electricity, and gravity. It is non-material in nature.
The seven Ethers in various degrees of tenuity are the un-created substance, or Universal Substance. The substance in which all suns, worlds, and galaxies are suspended in space and time.  All of us are intimately connected to all of the above mentioned events, and to each other, whether or not it is realized. This opens another avenue of knowledge regarding the ancient science of the Zodiac, the modern term--Astrology, the internal, or implicate knowledge, which gave birth to modern Astronomy, the external, or explicate knowledge of the Universe. The seemingly abstract art of Astrology is interpreted with varying degrees of success and utilized for varying reasons, often, "other than" Spiritual advancement.
The exact ancient science of the Zodiac, our modern term of Astrology is not without foundation in reality.   Although, as misconceived as it is in the religious superstitions, and as controversial it is within the scientific community, this is what the ancient philosopher Hermes Trismegistus had to say regarding the holographic connection or the ethereal "web" that exists between ourselves and the planets that surround us and keeps us connected with the whole:  

"And when all things were interminated and unmade up, the light things were Divided on high.  And the heavy things were founded upon the moist of Sand, all things being Terminated or Divided by Fire; and being sustained or hung up by the Spirit, they were so carried, and the Heaven was seen in Seven Circles.   And the Gods were seen in their Ideas of the Stars, with all their Signs, and the Stars were numbered with the Gods in them.  And the Sphere [earth] was all lined with Ayr, carried about in a circular motion [rotation of the earth] by the Spirit of God." Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus, from  his "Divine Pymander" (1604) Page 44, 45 "The holy Sermon." 
There is much more to this discourse than most minds will comprehend.  But to those who give it a focused thought, you can understand by the composition of the Universe why this is a Truth.
The ethers are where Spirit substance is manifesting the beginning of matter. Science refers to this substance as "dark matter" that cannot be seen, touched, smelled, or weighed, it pervades all of "empty" Space.  Dark matter does not absorb or reflect light and is therefore invisible. It is considered to be a non material substance. More of the dark, invisible, matter exists in space than the material realm visible to the human eye.   It was first discovered while doing research with the Hubble space telescope.

THE MAJOR PLANES OF CORRESPONDENCE
The three major Planes of Correspondence in the downward manifestation of the scale of Life and Being  are:
    I.  The Great Spiritual Plane
II.  The Great Mental Plane
III.   The Great Physical Plane
Each major plane has infinite subdivisions and dimensions that are impossible for all to be mentioned, some which are visible to the human eye but a larger portion being out of the range of human vision, at least, in the current evolutionary stage of human consciousness and perception.  A Mental Plane is not a place having dimensions of height, width, and depth, such as a mathematical plane, but rather, it is a state of "Mind" or "Being" and the accompanying degree of perception of reality to which no dimension or timeline can be ascribed.  Yet, it occupies a dimension of reality that is shared with other Life forms unique to their own Plane of "Being." 
Moreover, evolution is the process of advancement of "becoming," into a higher plane of being, the SPIRITWARD journey of all Life.  The becoming aspect is universal and depends on the choices that an individual makes for him or herself.  A vision of what an individual wishes to become is the person's evolution.  It is obvious that caution must be exercised in the "becoming" aspect lest an unsuspecting individual mentally wanders below the animal Plane of thought.  For, as a person thinks, so shall he or she be....  It is not desirable to make a wrong choice in Life and find ourselves following a fifteen or twenty year loop away from our Spiritual path before we find our lost path again.  Many have experienced this and the majority of humans are not even aware of why it happened, some become disembodied while wandering in their long loop.   The utilization and management of time for Spiritual advancement and growth is very precious.  Time can come and go like a vapor and valuable moments of meditation and study that would otherwise help an individual in Spiritual advancement is lost, at least in this incarnated Life time.
It can be said that "heaven" is not a place, but a state of Mind or Being.  It can be said that both "heaven" and "hell" are mental states of "Being" between the Positive and Negative Poles of human nature.  Our television and  newspaper is full of the mental activity of humans that occur between these two Poles of human nature.  Most news reports are based upon the Negative aspect of Mind.  The teachings of Jesus are that "The kingdom of heaven is within you."  Yet they will come to you saying, "it is here, or it is there.... but I say unto you the Kingdom of God is within you."  Why do we gaze into the sky?  All we see are belts of meteorites, giant planets, and galaxies, moving with frightening speed while our own earth hurdles around the sun with enormous velocity.  Man does not have anything technological at the moment that can move with those velocities thru space.
Heaven, or the Astral Planes are not the pearly gates and streets made of gold as we have been taught by organized religion.  Hell is not the dimensional lake of fire in which wicked humans are cast into by a sarcastic god who takes pleasure in observing tortured humans.  This belief comes from misinformation and a lack of Knowledge of the Truth.  This hypothetical "belief" has no substance in the reality of Spirit or the Universe.  It is caused by an infiltration of misinformed religious imposters of the middle ages whose dark minds have written their own pet "beliefs" into the many religious literature that has now become the "inherited tendencies" of the human race upon which misinformation (based on superstition) it lives and acts.  This "belief" will be dissolved in the lapse of time as the TRUTH is coming to the attention of the race.
The belief that Christians will be taken to a "better place"  by Jesus is ludicrous because of the material concept of "heaven."  It is believed that Jesus will return and appear in the sky and that all "believers" will be caught up on a cloud to be taken into heaven to the New Jerusalem.  Other Christians  believe that they will stay on earth and the New Jerusalem will be brought down from heaven.  The dead will be raised from their graves and be judged by God to be accepted into heaven or cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where they will eternally burn in Hell.  This belief was adopted by early Christianity and incorporated into the bible which perpetuated the inherited tendency to this day and fosters religious fanaticism.  This belief was written by the early Christian leaders to strike fear into the hearts of the Christian dissenters who disagreed with the belief of the early church.  The leaders made a failed attempt to maintain unity.   Today, in modern Christianity this belief is still being lived and acted upon.  
You see, there are three major problems with this belief.  One, this belief was born during a time when it was believed that the earth was flat.  If Jesus was to appear in the sky, this belief would work if the earth's surface was flat.  However, today it is common knowledge that the earth is round and that it is suspended in space and time and subject to constant perpetual change (evolution).  What will happen to those on the other side of the Earth?  Will they miss the great event while they snooze?  The second problem is, that Jesus never left the Earth Plane.  Where is he?  How can he return when he never left in the first place?  "Why do you stand gazing into the sky....?" "I will always be with you" he said.  That doesn't sound like someone who packed his bags and left does it?  One thing we can be sure of, he will not subject himself again to the ridicule of scorning and crucifixion or subject himself to the idol worshipping of his person.  Those who know where he is, will not speak because the world will not believe them.  They are the obscure Mystic Christians who make no public appearance and who act on Knowledge that do not belong to the outwardly organized divided Christian religion.  A mystic society that is neither here or there but is everywhere amongst us.  The third problem is that "heaven" is not a place having dimensional and physical properties.  Heaven is a state of Mind where humans will create heaven for themselves and help other humans attain the same or they create their own hell and battle each other for territorial religious rights.  The Human Mind is capable of placing itself anywhere between the poles of Polarity as ruled by Principle of POLARITY.  It does not matter what the race or skin color is.  The nobler heights of the Human mind creates a euphoric state of Mind in unity, peace, and Knowledge and they will treat their fellow humans as they treat themselves.  How many humans can accomplish this?  There are those who occupy the lower region of the Human Mind and are miserable humans who are constantly defending their opinions and are willing to murder other humans to convince "themselves" that they have the right of way in all things.  This is a very satanic human Mind that is very low in the scale of Life and closely borders "Animal Mind."  The Human Mind does not belong on the Animal Plane of Mind without suffering bestial animalistic consequences.  Some will unknowingly trespass into the Elemental Plane of Mind that occupies a region between human and animal consciousness without being prepared and they see things their consciousness cannot decipher.  They could become permanently insane because of intense fear and are subjects of psychological and psychiatric study.   How will they explain to their psychiatrist a something that they don't understand or that their psychologist and psychiatrist is not aware of?  They are accused of suffering hallucination and are declared to be insane because medical science is not yet aware of the "other side" of reality.  They can only see the manifestation from the this side of reality and observe the effect of a strange unexplained phenomenon but cannot further elaborate except to study and keep record because there is no established baseline to start from....  It depends on which side of the looking glass a person does his or her observation.  One is from an internal reality looking out, the other is looking in from without.  Which will have the greater view?  Looking in from without is to learn through trial and error and is a mystery.  To look outward from within is to Know a great Truth that will silence the lips and open the ears as the mystery is dissolved and removes the veil of ignorance.  The Great Principle of CORRESPONDENCE that occupies within the Brow Chakra of Human Consciousness enables humans to observe that which is beyond the veil of materialism and they can peer deep into the reality of SPIRIT that would otherwise be obscure to a materialistic mind that only concerns itself with the shallow mundane things of a mortal life.
Christianity is increasingly becoming disunited because of the beliefs and the continuous new beliefs they act upon and thus forming new circles within the Christian religion and increasing the disunity.  As long as the foundation of the Christian religion is based upon inherited "beliefs," instead of Universal SPIRITUAL  KNOWLEDGE, Christianity will continue to be increasingly divided because beliefs can either be based on only a partial truth or no truth at all.  Beliefs will always be subject to constant change in the face of TRUTH which itself is unchangeable.  Beliefs can be shaken and changed but Knowledge is unshakable and is backed by the Universal Principles of SPIRIT.  Knowledge of TRUTH is highly organized and follows Universal Law.  We do not become better humans by changing our external environment while we leave our internal closet full of skeletons.  We will take the skeletons in our internal closet right along with us no matter where we go.  But when we clean out our internal closet by removing the skeletons of the past, then can we experience true freedom and walk wherever we wish without those miserable skeletons haunting us.  As one can see, it is in the transformation of our Minds that brings results, not in the change of the external reality.  Our external realm consists of everything that we can see around us with our eyes and is the manifested reality of SPIRIT.  This is the reality of the Universe of the infinite variety of matter that is coagulated by the SPIRIT and we see it as our material world.  But be advised, let not your eyes deceive your consciousness by thinking that what we see is all there is to reality.  
It is exciting to know that there is an infinite amount of things to research and study in the field of infinite possibilities that would even keep an immortal human busy in timeless eternity.  As for those mortal humans in the lower regions of Life and Being, they will continue to struggle and grope in finding a meaning to Life and someday they will find it and we can all gather together in solemn congregation and observe the constantly changing Universe we live in to admire the work of THE GREAT CREATOR at work in the manifestation of the Universe that makes it possible for us to do the things we enjoy and witness this with our own eyes and stand in piously and stupefied awe.  We live on this miniscule dust particle in the Universe we refer to as "our earth" that is surrounded by other  miniscule dust particles in our Milky Way galaxy that resembles a grain of sand on the beach.  In view of all these things, how big (or little) physically are we humans when we make a comparison between the physical dimensions of our bodies and compare them with the enormous massive celestial bodies of the Universe?  Then, look at MIND which has no dimensional limits and is non-local.  How shall we compare this with the physical Universe?  Is it not mind boggling when we give it a momentary thought?  Billions of light years away?!  We don't even have a clue of the enormous distances except to make an attempt to understand it through equations?  Not all of us are Einsteins. 
How do we determine with measuring device such as a GPS system, radar, or any other state of the art technology what and where the varying planes of Life and Being are?   Being that is neither here or there?  This tells us that it is a state of being not subject to measure or ocular observation.  It is a region of reality that appears to be hidden from the material plane and therefore not obvious to the human race.  The being of a mineral, the being of a vegetable, the being of an animal, the being of a human or Human Being, all have their many sub-planes of Life and Being that cannot be measured or assigned to a specific locale in space and time.  We can measure the distance between humans, plants, animals, minerals and measure their velocity when they move.  But how do we physically measure a Plane of Being or a thought?  It is not possible except thru observation and appreciation of having that ability.
In the bible, the iron statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream represents the various religious infrastructures of the world that show signs of division between them and within their religious structures or belief systems.   The solid iron statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream appears to be powerful, massive and solid.  However, there is a problem with this apparently solid statue in that its feet are composed of iron mixed with clay.  We have a massive iron statue with feet that are mixed with veins of clay in the iron that lacks the unity and integrity of a sound foundation.  In the lapse of time will this statue collapse under its own weight as its feet are to weak to support its enormous structure .  This allegory is written in the Christian Bible and can be studied and scrutinized in detail.
The above paragraphs are not written with malicious intend, but to bring to the attention of the reader a something that needs to be researched, studied, and scrutinized so that the real Truth can be forwarded, the truth that can bring peace, unity and progress in the perpetual upward journey of all humans in the scale of Life.  Jesus never died for our sins.  If it was only that simple.... he died not for our sins but "because" of sin.  "Sin" means an erring procedure of the human mind.  He was falsely accused, convicted, and unjustly crucified because of a group of ignorant humans who have no Knowledge or ears to hear with.  They have eyes to see with, yet, they cannot see.  They have ears to hear with, yet, they cannot hear.  They chose a murderer to be released instead of a man who is filled with Knowledge and who has done no harm.  That is a sin.  The idea that Jesus died for our sins was conceived by a few disciples who were idolatry prone toward Jesus and who also betrayed him after he was unjustly imprisoned.  Jesus worked out his own salvation as all of us are responsible to work out our own salvation from the hell of violence, war, and death.  Jesus taught us by example how, not thru idolatry worship, but by idealizing the road to Knowledge he trotted before for us as did the ancient philosophers before him of whom he was a student.  It was his destiny to re-establish the lost Truth that the world managed to bury with idol beliefs and worship, just as Moses did when he descended from the Mountain to find his people acting as wild beasts.  It would be a fatal mistake to turn to idolatry worship because it will create an empty religious belief system that has no Spiritual Principles as a solid foundation.   Any religion that is divided against itself, cannot be a Spiritual role model to the world because the world will view divided organized religion as not having its act together.  The world is not impressed.  Unity and harmony cannot be established on a superficial level.  If a religion did attempt to establish unity and harmony on a superficial level that is based on lies and an untruth, it will become as the statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream in that it will appear as an impressive solid and powerful iron statue.  When we "view" its foundation, we can see the veins of clay mixed with iron in its feet that in the lapse of time will cause the "great" statue to collapse under its own weight.  Theologians cannot maintain a superficial attitude toward GOD because the SPIRIT is very real and is aware of everything that they do.  There are greater things in reality to view then the mundane idea of, "how many angels can dance on the tip of a needle?"  Or, "God is dead."  It is not the "death" of God they see but the "death" of their own consciousness that needs to be revived in order to give hope to the world.  It may be that a million angels can dance on the tip of a needle but how will that help in advancing the world?  Moreover, a superficial walk in Life based on theoretical and hypothetical "beliefs" rather than "Spiritual Knowledge" can lead to strange and dark behavior and secrets of the Human consciousness because there is no "source" in proper ethics without the solid foundation of Spiritual Principles.  This applies to the ethical behavior of a government, a country, and corporations in the world of commerce who live, move, and have their being within "THE ALL."  Nothing is exempt.  To take cognizance for a false belief or false behavior that is acted upon as a truth will have fatal consequences if the direction is  not changed.  The ideal politician is one who is well versed in Spiritual Principles in that they cannot be bought or corrupted by "special interest."
As for salvation, no one else can do this for you or I.  One of the most important statement that Jesus made during the sermon of the mount, "Be ye transformed by the renewal of your mind."  It is in this transformation of the Mind that true salvation is accomplished.  To become properly informed regarding the Omnipresent SPIRIT of GOD.  The transformation is caused by the renewal of the Mind when we focus upon the more concrete things of Life that do not change with process of evolution.  This is the "solid rock" that Jesus taught.  When we become ignorantly caught up in the process of evolution in our unawareness then we become subject to the perpetual swinging pendulum of RHYTHM energy --a manifestation of SPIRIT, and we suffer the things of a mortal man because of the belief that somebody else is going to do it for us.  Well.... that would be nice and ideal not to have any responsibility except to abide our time.  Unfortunately, this is not the way it is.  The SPIRIT of GOD  by the effort of its will, ensued the Seven Principles in the works and operations of the Universe and includes the Plane of Human Mind in the proper utilization and discharge of our consciousness (physical presence) and the responsibility for our own conduct in Life with the resulting consequences that follow in our own lives.  It does not matter what our beliefs are or what race we are.  The Spirit of THE ALL is no respecter of any religion or beliefs but will immediately respond to the person who abides in TRUTH.  Because TRUTH is universal and belongs to no religion, country, race or any individual.  Promote not yourselves, but bear witness of the TRUTH that we all live, move, and have our Being within GOD.  Any other way is a folly....
The following paragraphs is only an attempt of limited description of the various mental states of Life and Being on the ascending scale of Life as each occupies its own Plane (of being).  As we can see, these planes have no dimension and can therefore not be measured in kilometers, miles, or light-years.  They belong to the properties of the internal manifesting planes that are SPIRIT in nature.  Each one of these planes are states of Mind belonging to the various planes of Life and being.  Their physical properties are self evident by the material properties each of them display in the Great Physical Plane.  For example we can see human bodies, plants, trees, animals, the mountains and deserts of the world which are evident of the various planes of Life and Being.  An exception to this are the Elemental Planes because humans have not sufficiently evolved in their conscious awareness that would enable them to see things with their eyes that ordinary humans cannot see.  Occasionally, people see some kind of strange phenomena that will induce fear because of a lack of Knowledge and Understanding of the appearance.  Knowledge and Understanding will dissolve the fear.
An example of the manifested sub planes below the plane of the mental activity of Human Mind is that of the immediate surrounding environment; the ascending scale of Life and Being.  It is only for studying purposes that it is structured this way:
        I. The Plane of Mineral Mind.
              II.  The Plane of Elemental Mind. (A)
III. The Plane of Plant Mind.
             IV.  The Plane of Elemental Mind. (B)
    V. The Plane of Animal Mind.
             VI. The Plane of Elemental Mind. (C)
   VII. The Plane of Human Mind.

The Elemental Planes which are Spirit and sub-conscious in nature  escapes the five biological senses of human activity and intellect.  Its perception is only realized when a focused attention of mental activity is initiated toward SPIRIT.  Therefore, is it not perceived by the average human mind or eyes.  All elemental planes are Spirit in nature and are connecting links between the divisions as each partakes of the nature of every manifested plane.  The elemental planes are also occupied by various elemental entities who are the caretakers of Nature.  They are Spirits who are often wrongly accused of being devils and demons, because of superstitious ignorance. 
The activity of the Elemental Plane (C) below the plane of human Mind is sub-conscious in nature and maintains the autonomous functions in the human body in support of its Life and growth.  No conscious effort is required on part of a person or animal to cause growth in the body or to maintain a heartbeat or breathing etc., even while asleep.  Below the plane of Plant Mind is the plane of Elemental Mind (A) which is also sub-conscious in nature and maintains the Life and activity of the vegetable kingdom in the growing of limbs on trees and the blooming of flowers etc., without any effort on part of the trees or plants.  All of Life and Being in the scale is maintained and sustained by the Divine Intelligence of SPIRIT.
The definition of consciousness lays in the existence of the human body which acts as an interface between the Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Plane.  Without a body, human consciousness would not be possible as consciousness (the body) enables the Soul to consciously experience the Great Physical Plane with its  five bodily senses.  In truth are there seven senses which includes Consciousness and MIND --the sixth, and seventh sense.  When a person becomes disembodied, as in physical death,  a loss of consciousness would be experienced and only a subconscious existence is possible and verbal communication is eliminated.  However, the loss of consciousness is only temporary.  Incarnated humans cannot communicate physically with a disembodied Soul because of the absence of a mouth, larynx, tongue, and lungs that enables physical communication by sound and words.  Communicating through the Mentalism is a way to communicate.  However, the sleeping Soul should be left alone and not be disturbed.
Above and throughout these divisions are many other divisions such as the Plane of Energy which comprises light, heat, gravity, and electricity, etc. which we will not discuss because it would require volumes of scientific literature, much of it already published.  There are planes of causation far above the mentioned planes that are at the moment beyond our knowing but in due time will become knowable to us. 
It must be remembered that there are no distinct and abrupt borders between all divisions and subdivisions of the manifested planes such as we have as borders between countries.  The latter being imaginary lines of distinction and separation which are subject to constant change.  The divisions of the manifested planes slowly shade from one into another like a day that slowly shades into night and then back again.
These divisions are arbitrary terms that are used to aid in the thought and study of Spirit so that a degree of human understanding can be derived from an abstract reality that affects all of us. 
The plane of Human Mind has its divisions and subdivisions as seen in the various ascending and descending levels of human thought.  There are humans who have highly developed Spiritual Minds, humans who have self made intellectual minds, and predatory humans of a base mind who prey on other humans, such as thieves, robbers, rapists, murderers, serial killers, drug dealers, drug addicts, and to a lesser degree, alcoholics.  These humans dwell on the descending scale of the animal plane of Mind and create the mental slums we read and hear about in the daily news.  In between  the various divisions of human thought mentioned, dwell infinite levels and shades of thought within the Plane of Human Mind.  These are the mental divisions that exist in our society that include personal and religious belief systems.
As humans rise on the scale of Life, either through evolution or personal effort, the divisions become increasingly unified as it approaches the realm of Spirit.  Evolution is slow, cumbersome, and often painful, while a personal effort in spiritual advancement will cause a quantum leap in the evolutionary process of Life.    
The Image below was created in 1992 and displays the various levels and divisions of manifested phenomena of INFINITE LIVING MIND ruled by the fourth principle of Universal Cosmic Law-- "Polarity."  It displays the possibilities of choices that humans make on the ascending, as well as descending scale of Life with the resulting manifestations in each person's Life.  All of manifested Mind, Life, and Matter is firmly held between the Positive and Negative Pole of The INFINITE MIND of GOD--"THE ALL in All."

"Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates." 
-The Kybalion

IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Principle of Vibration manifests the Throat Chakra in the human body, the power center of communication.  
The opening of the Throat Chakra varies in humans and depends on how well developed and  disciplined they are and how it is used.  The Throat Chakra furthers its manifestation in the creation of the Thyroid gland that produces Thyroxin to convert oxygen and food into usable energy for the body.  The Larynx or voice box makes it possible for verbal human communication in the realm of Consciousness as it vibrates sounds in varying degrees and thus creating a unique human voice that is manipulated by the tongue and lips to form the unique sounds and words of every language of our world.  


When disembodied, humans become deprived of verbal communication because they no longer possess lungs, a voice box, tongue and lips to manipulate a language, the only alternative means of communication available to them is that of Mind.  Because oral communication by Human voice is always preceded by a thought form followed by the forming of sound and words, the disembodied person is unable to hear sound because of the lack of ears and ear drums.  What they see is the forming of thoughts before oral communication takes place and they are able to "see" without eyes and be "aware" of that preceding  thought form.  They in turn can only express themselves by projecting the vibratory energy of mental thoughts toward their physically present  loved ones but who are unable to be aware of their thoughts because of a lack of Spiritual development.  In rare occasions when a bodily person occupies the higher edge of Human Consciousness, even only for a moment, do they become aware that some kind of communication has taken place.  For the most part is this aspect of Mental communication not possible for most people because it is not in their field of awareness and can therefore not be utilized.  To call disembodied Humans "dead" is a great fallacy.  The communication with "dead people" that has occurred from time to time is a misnomer.   Dead, they are not, because nothing in the Universe dies.  There is only constant change....  This is the Nature of GOD, THE ALL in All.  Science is not able to help in this area because they are not even sure what and where MIND and Consciousness is.  Science is for the most part involved in commercial applications.

All that exists, is in constant vibration and motion. Atoms always vibrate with such great rapidity that they seem motionless, on the other end of the scale are things that vibrate so slowly that they also appear to be motionless. In between are the various vibrations of living entities which range from consciousness all the way down to the lowly dust particle that plays an important role in the food chain. Still there are things even lower then dust. If we were to follow the scale of life all the way down to the utmost regions of the Negative pole (undifferentiated matter), we again would find ourselves in the realm of Spirit. The Alpha, and the Omega (As Above, so below....). All that is, begins in Spirit and ends in Spirit completing a single cycle of evolution that will be repeated countless numbers of times through eternity.
All of the Universe is pulsating and vibrating with LIFE, energy, and motion.  There is no death anywhere in the Universe except in the conceptualization of death by the human mind which has no foundation or substance in reality.  LIFE is everywhere and always in the company of Divine Intelligence, something that science has yet to realize. 
When a person is able to bring this concept of LIFE in the realm of their actual consciousness, not only to intellectually accept this fact, but to be able to feel and be conscious of this Universal Life activity in all aspects of reality, then is this person firmly established on the path of attaining, recognizing, and understanding Cosmic Consciousness.  All these are but steps into the realization in the Oneness of SPIRIT.
In order to perpetuate Spiritual development, and growth, a person must learn to look beyond the apparent separateness of the various Life forms and manifested matter and cease the external analysis of such.  It would be a tedious and a virtual  impossible task to analyze and catalogue all of manifested matter.  Instead, go beyond the world of form and force, and grasp the idea of Oneness that pervades and interpenetrates the realm of Energy, Force, and Motion, the Oneness of Universal INFINITE LIVING MIND perpetuating the constant change back of, behind, and underneath all things. Learn to intellectually recognize this aspect of reality in its entirety.  Eventually you will learn to feel this reality within your own being and you will acquire the Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding of SPIRIT and realize ITS awesome, enormous PRESENCE. 
This concept is most difficult to express because there are no words to describe this experience.  When you experience this for yourself, then will you understand the picture that is drawn on this web site.  The picture that describes that back of and behind all matter, forms, names, labels and tags, of the visible world, there is to be found One LIFE, One Force, a singular Causation of LIFE, One Existence, One Reality, the Unity of manifested Life and Being, the common denominator of "All that is."
The true role of teachers, guides, and religious leaders is only instrumental in taking you to "self realization."   Once the teachers, and guides helped you on the "Path" the SPIRIT itself will take you into regions of the MIND that is unthinkable to the Spiritually undeveloped person.  Learn to listen to IT with an open unbiased Mind.
When a person learns to silence the mental noise of the wandering Mind, and is able to see the Universe in perpetual motion of constant change, unceasing chemical composition and decomposition in the change of all manifested matter, the person will recognize the Primordial Causation back of all manifested reality.  The Universe is constantly creating and manifesting atoms and forming new particles of suns, worlds, and galaxies that rush through space with enormous speed and velocity, their particles constantly vibrating and changing in the chemical process of composition and decomposition. 
The destruction of such as mentioned, is not a "death," but a creation, a renewal, a manifestation, that holds the Universe in a perpetual motion of constant change.  Everywhere the work of building up and breaking down of all things is happening even as we speak.
Learn to recognize and realize the "Oneness" of all things and the causal Energy of SPIRIT back of and behind all changing things and learn to see for yourself, who you are, the true "I" Consciousness as being the center of all change that revolves around you, the real self--YOU,-- the "I," the SOUL of your Soul, standing unchanged and unharmed, Eternal, Indestructible, and Invulnerable.  The real YOU standing firmly and unchanging, in the constantly changing world of form and force.  In doing this, you have acquired Cosmic Consciousness and realize a rise in the mental vibration of your own mind and aspiring above the plane of conditioned thinking and societal expectations of the collective mindset that hold most people captive in perpetual change.  They are unable to make anything last or endure in their lives and are carried along by the waves and torrential rains of Life without any solid and lasting foothold.
This knowledge is not to be left to science alone, but is a very important part in the individual Spiritual development.  This awareness is the recognition of oneself, and the role all of us have in the Universe.  It is the only escape from the imprisonment of societal conditioned thinking and religious rhetoric.  It gives a person a sense of direction, purpose and meaning in LIFE, something that our children need and that organized religion and society is unable to give.   The problems of war and violence in our society will continue in spite of all the good intentions of all participating committees and institutions against violence.   Simply, because they lack the proper mental tools and Principles to educate the gross ignorance of society regarding the reality that all of us dwell within in order to materialize the dreams of a violent free society.  It is a failure to recognize the balance that must be accomplished between the implicate and explicate reality which requires a far larger awareness than is currently maintained.  They have fallen short of the goal. 
Those who can truly understand the principle of Vibration, hold the sceptre of power in their hands that will remove mortal limitations and the morbid manifestations that follow mortality. On the plane of mind, the atoms of the body can be mentally manipulated by using the higher LAW against the lower laws. By raising the vibratory energy of the atoms in the body to such great rapidity that they become wave forms of energy and light. This is the state of transfiguration that Jesus experienced. In this state, the particles of the body would give off light, or Quanta, and as it continues upward in vibration, the particles will eventually become invisible to the naked eye. This process is known as "mental transmutation" and enables a person to travel in the invisible, in the absence of mass. This mode of travel is known as, teleportation, astral travel, astral projection, and instantaneous travel, and being out of the body or "OBE."  It is the only sensible means of quickly traversing great distances in deep space which is impossible through electromechanical devices and the current technology of propulsion and locomotion.     This ancient mental art is known to the Masters of the Himalayas and to the adepts and Masters of ancient Egypt. Albert Einstein made a profound statement along these lines when he said, "Matter and Energy is exchangeable, not distinct."
The larger Astral Planes overshadow space and time and makes it possible to travel faster than the speed of light because light is limited to the Physical Plane and the better known phenomenal laws.  Going faster than light is similar to breaking the sound barrier.  It may be said that when traveling faster than light, that we are breaking the "light barrier."  It is possible that when traveling faster than light, we have accomplished the escape velocity from the space/time continuum and are propelled into an Astral dimension in the absence of space, time and mass.  Space becomes non-existent and only our mental focus, whatever that may be, becomes the destiny.  The escape velocity of earth's gravity for a physical object is approximately 8000 mph and anything slower remains imprisoned by the earth's gravitational forces.  It is possible that this same principle applies to the speed of light as it does to gravity and the sound barrier.  
It is believed in astral travel, that a person leaves the body and traverses through walls or any other so called solid object.  The truth is that the astral traveler never leaves the body, but is actually experiencing the quality of being in two places at the same time.  One aspect of locality (the body), the other aspect is non-local (Mind), void of space and time, aqueous in nature, and therefore not physically limited to any force of gravity, attraction, repulsion, or locality.
The body cannot sustain life without the consciousness of the individual.  The misconceived belief that a person leaves the body (out of the body experience, or OBE.), can cause fear of not being able to return to their body.  This fear will immediately terminate the short lived experience of "astral travel."  As mentioned before, atomic particles in their waveform aspect display a similar behavior of being at two places at the same time. 
A more advanced means of astral travel, is, when a person learns through Spiritual development the self mastery of raising the vibrations of the particles in the body to such a degree of rapidity that it converts into waveforms of energy and light. The body is now in the dematerialized state of being and exist as a superfluous vibratory substance in the space-less and timeless Astral Plane. The individual can now take their dematerialized body with them and can materialize at will by lowering the vibrations of their wave form at any location in space and time that is limited only to the imagination.
It takes Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding of the Arcane Truths to make this a reality. This is the mental art of self mastery, poise, and mental firmness, that makes astral travel possible because the Universe is "mental" in nature and it would most likely be styled as strange unexplained psychic phenomena by humans.  
In the mastery of Mind, a person has in effect become a vessel of expression instead of impression.  Channels of impression that hold most people captive in a state of Mind that relies on  constant "impressions" of external information that is subject to the forceful opinions of others such as commercialism, the news media, politicians, etc.  Most people rely on this unreliable "external" information to make their decisions in Life, be it right or wrong, proper or improper.  This region of thinking has brought down many a people's lives and the things they worked for because of the possibility of becoming misinformed and putting their trust in misinformation.  Remember, be aware that human nature is prone to maliciousness, lying, cheating, and stealing. 
When the mastery of Mind is accomplished through Spiritual development, this Mind is capable to discern the subtle causation back of and underneath the forceful opinions of others.  The Spiritually aware person will be able to manipulate the negative and undesirable forceful opinions of others and render it harmless and useless.  This is possible because Spiritual Wisdom operates on a higher Mental Plane that is above the awareness of these forceful individuals without them being aware. 
The lower Mental Planes are always subject the causation of the higher Mental Planes.  The higher the aspirations of the human Mind on the Mental Plane of thought, the more rapid its power and vibrations become to which all lower planes of Mind and matter are subject to its wills and efforts.  The misuse of this Knowledge will bring a swift demise of the abusing individuals because of The LAW of CAUSE AND EFFECT.  A research into human history will attest to this fact.
On the Astral Plane, space and time can be warped and the space between two points can be brought together.  For example, take a 8½ x 11 sheet of paper.  Take a corner of the paper with each hand and stretch it to a straight line in front of you.  The largest length of the sheet is the space between your left and right hand.  We will call your left hand, point A, and the right hand, point B.  We have now created a space between our left and right hand, or a given distance between two points.  Now, bring point A and point B together by bending the sheet of paper into a curve.  The paper is now warped and point A and Point B are touching each other.  You have warped the 8½ x 11 sheet of paper by bringing the two points together.  The sheet of paper is incapable of warping itself.  You are the force back of and behind, that caused the sheet of paper to become warped by the effort of your own will.  You can now say that there is no distance between the two points to speak of and the need of calculation between two points is non-existent, unless, you plan to travel by electromechanical means between two points in a straight line.  It is all in the individual Mind, and its perception of what it believes reality to be.
The power of the Mind is capable of bending and warping space and time without causing disruption to other people's lives.  Can you see how Astral Travel can be accomplished over enormous distances by warping space and time and bringing two points together?  Space and time is flexible and is not a rigid like substance.  The Ethers is what makes space possible, the substance of space is SPIRIT.  All the things mentioned is possible because the Universe is "Mental" in nature and material objects are not at all material because they consist of atoms which comprise mostly of space.  Not an empty space, but a space of intelligent vibratory Life giving energy. 
The "Beam me up Scotty," phrase of the popular program Star Trek is not far from the truth and no doubt, some day, we may have devices in our homes that would materialize and dematerialize physical objects and transport them through the invisible realm in the absence of physical mass. It may be unbelievable at the moment, but who would have thought that massive objects such as a C5A Galaxy, or a 747 carrying cargo and people could fly through the air a hundred years ago? If any person would have been able to mention this in the fourteenth century, his head would have been laid to rest in a guillotine. Today, flying is but a way of life and we do not give it any further thought.
Alien life forms, have been known to use this principle as is experienced by our human race during alien abductions. They have been known to walk through walls. To the ignorant and unsuspecting mind this would strike a great terror, but in reality it is a greater Law that transcends a lower law and thus is considered a violation of known physical laws. Alien life forms are well aware of this Law and are using it to their advantage. They may view humans as sheepish creatures who are easily controlled because of their ignorance.  The Truth is, that alien Life Forms operate from a dimension or realm that render most humans as if they are experiencing an "illusion" because of their materialistic views regarding reality.  Alien Life Forms know  that they can take advantage of this ignorance.  Many people are reluctant to discuss this "illusionary" experience because of the fear of ridicule by ignorant humanity, something that "aliens" would prefer to continue.   And, yes, alien life forms are entities of Life, similar to ourselves who occupy a given point on the scale of Life and Being.  They too are manifestations of the INFINITE "ALL."
They may look different than we do because their bodies have been manifested for their environment.  Their large dark eyes must gather more light to see with, because their environment may not have the bright sunlit environment that we are accustomed to.  Their eyes maybe sensitive to bright light and maybe the reason why they avoid daylight activity.
The old and ancient art of mental manipulation requires great Knowledge and Wisdom to be used properly. In the wrong hands, it would bring a swift physical demise of the individual.
Science as we know it, is still in its embryonic stage of progression. It is still in the process of uncovering, through trail and error, what the Mind is capable of doing. Not everything can be proved through scientific discovery because equations belong to the intellectual mind while there are things that can only be perceived by the intuitive Mind.
As science continues to progress, it will eventually enter the realm of pure SPIRIT when it breaks the barrier of mortal and physical limitation making infinite possibilities a reality.  Science is now standing before this threshold of this great reality.  It is a similar experience in the braking of the sound barrier by fast flying aircraft.  Older aircraft were not able to withstand the shock waves of supersonic flight and disintegrated during flight.  It was discovered that by streamlining the aerodynamics of airplanes that flying faster than the speed of sound became a reality.  No one foresaw the sound barrier.... 
We need to streamline our own Minds and thoughts to break through the mortal barrier of physical limitation if our civilization is to survive.  This civilization will vanish off of the face of the Earth like a few of the ancient civilizations before us if it fails to accomplish this because our Minds are in constant need of expansion and must continue to expand.  When the human Mind has accomplished all that it can  accomplish on the Physical Plane, it must break through the mortal barrier and into SPIRIT in order to continue its evolution.  If it fails, this civilization's infrastructure stands in danger of becoming dissolved because it has no more room to expand.  We are now at the threshold between the two realms.
This is a new threshold for science, to break the barrier of physical and mortal limitations.  When this is accomplished, a new way of space travel will be discovered that will stupefy humanity regarding the various realms of the Universe.  True space travel will become a reality, or, is it, non-spatial travel?  Traveling between two points in space and time without traversing the distance in between?  That's a riddle for science to solve!

""Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites’ like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled." 
-The Kybalion
"Everything that is, is double"- 
Divine Pymander (Hermetic Philosophy)
From the Scriptures:
"I am the LORD ( or LAW), and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."
"The Authorized King James version: Isaiah 45: 6, 7."

IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Principle of Polarity manifests the Heart Chakra within the human body, the Tree of Life of Good and evil,  the Positive and Negative aspect of Mind that brings many a dark paradox in life.  There is much more that can be said about this Principle.... Polarity is the center of the Seven Principles with the three higher Principles above and three lower Principles below; "As above, so below; as below, so above."  The Correspondence of The Seven Principles with Polarity being the scale and balance of manifested Life.
The Heart Chakra continues the manifestation of the Thymus gland which is responsible for the production of T cells for the immune system of the body.



The evidence of this principle is observed in the Polarity of planets and the various celestial bodies that includes our own earth, solar system, galaxy, and even the Universe. Everything has Polarity. Without the Principle of Polarity, light, heat, gravity and electricity would not be possible. When you view your automobile's battery, you can see the positive and negative terminals that makes electricity possible - the Principle of Polarity is always at work in all things.
This Universal Principle manifests itself upon the mental plane as the Polarity of dark and Enlightened minds and its placement is within the heart center of every living human as the Positive and Negative aspect of Mind; "The tree of Life, of Good and evil," the Angelic and Satanic side of human nature, etc., both are equally present within human nature and activates according to the wills, wishes and efforts of a person, be it Positive or Negative, good or evil. 
"The lower instincts were not implanted in your nature by "the devil"; you came by them honestly."  Yogi Ramacharaka, his book, "Fourteen Lessons in Yogi Philosophy.
.... The whole Nature and Composition of those living things called Men, is very prone to Maliciousness, and is very familiar, and as it were nourished with it, and therefore is delighted with it.  Now if this wight shall come to learn or know, that the world was once made, and all things are done according to Providence and Necessity, Destiny, or Fate, bearing Rule over all: Will he not be much worse then himself? despising the whole, because it was made.   And if he may lay the cause of Evil upon Fate or Destiny, he will never abstain from any evil work.  
Wherefore we must look warily to such kind of people that being in Ignorance, they may be less evil for fear of that which is hidden and kept secret.

Hermes Trismegistus, his Divine Pymander 

A word of Wisdom regarding "Mental Polarity"

The old story of each person having two advisors, one at each ear, one whispering to him to follow the higher teachings and the other tempting him to pursue the lower path, is shown to be practically true by the occult teachings regarding the three mental principles.  The intellect represents the "me" consciousness of the average person.  This "me" has on one side, the Instinctive Mind, sending him to the old desires of the former self --the impulses of the less developed life of the animal, or the lower nature of man.  Desires that are all very much in the lower stages of development, but unworthy of the growing man.  On the other side is the Spiritual Mind, the "I" sending its unfolding impulses into the Intellect, and endeavoring to draw the consciousness up to itself--to aid in the man's unfoldment and development, and to cause him to master and control his lower nature.
Notorious predatory humans who have chosen the Satanic side of human nature are, Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin, the various serial killers, rapists, and many hideous crimes of various criminals, all are satanic in nature. Every person is capable of gravitating toward the dark side of human nature by choice. None of the above mentioned examples will ever be able to continue their hideous crimes indefinitely because they are on a mortal path that will end their hideous cause in physical death. No sane person would want to be in their shoes at death because there is nothing worse than to be faced with the grim reality of the choices they have made and the responsibility they bear for their actions when they go into the disembodied state of reality.
In rare instances are the disembodied souls of hideous criminals experienced by our civilization as the "poltergeists," "ghosts," spooks," etc., miserable disembodied humans who have chosen to live as base humans of a very low nature and mental vibration.  They are often grotesque and hideous in appearance because of their attempt to maintain a deteriorating astral shell, a last ditch effort to hold on to a diminishing and quickly disappearing Physical Plane.  The criminal type of disembodied humans will always remain close to the earth plane and their stay on the Astral Plane and absence from the physical plane is very short.  They do not have much to discard because of their ignorance regarding the reality of their existence.
Criminal minds become entrapped in their own miseries while evolution is purging and preparing them for another journey in physical Life, another time of learning. If they fail to evolve or transmute, they will remain trapped in the beginning-less cycles of Life, death, and rebirth and remain subject to the swing of the universal pendulum--The Principle of RHYTHM.  
The disembodied but more spiritually evolved human will spend more time on the Astral Planes discarding outlived belief systems that hold no substance in reality.  Their Astral dwelling is much higher in vibration than that of the criminal mind and is out of its reach. 
The rule of the ascending scale of Life applies on the Astral Planes as well as on the Physical Plane.  The Astral Plane, Physical Plane, and sub planes, are a continuous linear ascension of Life and Being on the scale of LIFE.  The entity who occupies a given point on the ascending scale of Life can go lower but not higher by reason of the placement of their own personal belief and the resulting degree of perception what they believe reality to be.  In other words, anything beyond the parameters of their perception of reality is non-existent as far as they are concerned.
The body of a person can hide the truth from others; its lies, greed, and theft, etc., and this person may not even be fully aware of the selfish cause he or she created. But, when the cover becomes removed, the consciousness of the individual stands naked in the realm of Spirit with no place to hide from him or herself. The Truth is always known to THE ALL and to ourselves because THE ALL is within us as well as in the surrounding environment.
The Principle of Polarity enables the choices that we make on the scale of Life, between good and evil, right and wrong, generosity and greed, love and fear, truth and lies. The Principle of Cause and Effect is closely connected to Polarity and holds us true to the choices and actions we make by returning to us what we have measured out in Life and to other humans. Like the swing of the pendulum, it always returns to where it began. In biblical terms it is expressed as, "Whatsoever man sows, that shall he also reap." "Do unto others, as you would have them to you."
All humans exist in the Astral Plane as well as on the Physical Plane of being at the same time.  The only change occurs when the Soul becomes disembodied and the only medium (the body) of expression on the Physical Plane is lost. However, it is not a permanent loss.  Everything else remains intact with the exception of the Astral body which will eventually become discarded as the Soul falls into a deep Soul sleep after a long weary and tiring toil through physical Life.  After disembodiment, the human soul, being in a partially awake state for a short period, falls into a deep slumber or Soul sleep on the Astral Plane and is in a very sacred state of Being.  The individual is not "dead."  Death is a misnomer, as is "Life after Death" because Life is continuous, without cessation or interruption. Soul sleep is an important function in the evolutionary process of the Soul, to rebuild its strength and vitality as it is prepared for its return to the Physical Plane.  This is re-incarnation, or the once-again incarnation of the Soul into a physical body.
The Soul will experience the birthing process again because it knows of no other way to obtain a body.  When observing a new born baby, you are looking at the return of an old Soul with an erased memory of past lives; however, the past experiences are not lost.  It is physically born again in innocence, with a clean mental slate, to learn and experience "physical expression" on the Great Physical Plane because it desires to be complete and whole again.  The physical death of a person is not the loss of Life but a loss of consciousness.  When a person disembodies as in physical death, it has lost its consciousness of the Great Physical Plane and its ability to interact with the material world (which is not as material as we think) but has never lost its Life because Life can not be lost.  Life is without cessation or interruption and consciousness can only be omitted from the human Soul temporarily.  The reality of conscious awareness will always beckon the disembodied Soul and compel it to return to the Physical Plane because it completes the human Mind, that is, to be consciously aware of the Great Creation of THE ALL.  The reality of conscious awareness is the great school where man and woman learn who they really are and what their connection is with the unfathomable Infinite to whom we all owe our abilities as conscious embodied Souls.
After disembodiment, the sleeping Soul is always firmly cradled and comforted in the MIND of THE ALL and is protected from any external harm or danger.  Like a sleeping babe who is protected by the arms of its Mother, it is free from external danger, discomfort, harm, or any pain, and is well cared for.  Yogi Ramacharaka said it well regarding the sleeping Soul when he said: "It is as though all the forces in Nature have conspired to protect the sleeping Soul and that nothing short of a complete revolution of all of Nature's forces and laws, can any harm come to the sleeping Soul...."
A common misconception is the belief that a person goes into instant sainthood when the body is discarded.  The opposite is more of a Truth because the Astral Planes are space-less, and timeless and "upward" progress would be almost impossible.  The Astral Plane consists of Infinite vibrations of Life and Being that occupy a single locality, a phenomenon that is impossible on the Physical Plane by reason of physical limitations.  On the Physical plane, no two objects can occupy the exact same point in space and time.  This is not true on the Astral Planes of Being where everything exist as various vibratory energy, in the absence of space, time, and mass. 
The human is in possession of a physical body and an Astral body that are inseparable components of the Soul or Spirit, in other words, the completeness of being human. It is layered similar to the layers of an onion.  The necessity of being a complete human (the whole "I" Spirit) compels the human Soul to return to the Physical Plane in order to continue its growth and learn from, and experience, the reality of "the things that are, and all that is." 
Like the swing of a pendulum, a human will continue to cycle through Life, death, and rebirth, until it learns to maintain possession of the body in order to maintain its "wholeness" by mentally polarizing him or her self on a desirable position on the ascending scale of Life. By doing so, a person has neutralized the immutable backward swing of the Universal Pendulum of "constant change" by allowing it to pass beneath their polarized consciousness upon the higher plane while the masses are carried along, obedient to environment; heredity; suggestion; and other external impressions. They are moved forward and back like the swing of a pendulum, unable to dominate their fate.
The fundamental principle of Immortality mentioned in the paragraph above, is a mental art that requires personal effort to know and understand this Arcane Truth in order to escape the beginning-less cycles of Life, death, and rebirth.  The mental art of polarization will cause a person to rise to the plane above and obtain self mastery, attaining a degree of Poise and Mental Firmness that is almost impossible to comprehend by the masses who are moved about like pawns on the chessboard of Life.  They are subject to the Universal Principles instead of using the LAW to their advantage.
This is not a new knowledge by any means as there is nothing new under the Sun.  This is the mental art of being able to "cause" and manipulate change into desirable states and conditions in Life's processes that is not acceptable or allowed in the current conditioned mindset.  They are unaware that everything on the Physical Plane is alterable.
The accomplishment of Immortality requires a proper Mind and Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding of the Arcane Truths that can only be accomplished through THE ALL.  Only THE ALL can take a person into regions of the Mind that is beyond the flight of any human imagination. All one has to do is....ask. Of ourselves we can do nothing....
Society is unable to comprehend this Truth at the moment because most humans are resistant to change.  Most humans, regardless of their social standing and accomplishments, are unwilling to step into uncharted regions of the Mind and Life because of the subconscious fear that their security blanket may become removed, the security blanket of their familiar and charted territory in Life.   However, evolution will force a change because nothing is allowed to stand still, nothing ever endures or stays, everything is in constant motion, vibration, and in a constant state of change. The final destination of human evolution is-- TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
The Principle of Polarity establishes the Divine Paradox or the dual aspects of reality. "Everything that is, has its double, i.e. the polarity of Positive and Negative, light and darkness, hot and cold, Love and fear, male and female, mortality and Immortality, etc.
All events are relative on the scale of Life with its extreme two opposite ends being an indeterminable beginning and ending. Every person has seen and heard the effects of the wind blowing from one direction to another, but no one knows where it came from, or where it is going...., except for a few who are silently seeing and listening.
The material realm is that which we perceive with our five senses. All of us are familiar with that which we can see, hear, smell, taste and touch. Then there is the opposite end of the scale that is not apparent to the five senses and most of us are unsuspecting of its existence, which is the realm of Spirit (Intelligent energy), or "energy" in scientific terms.
Each and every one has had, or will have an encounter with strange and unexplained phenomena that is manifested from the non-material realm. This encounter may instill great fear in the spiritually asleep individual who finds himself in a non-sensical situation and may experience a rude awakening to reality.
All manifested matter that we can perceive with our five senses is manifested from the Positive pole, which is pure Spirit, and manifested toward the Negative pole of Infinite Living Mind.   The lesser forms of undifferentiated matter such as minerals occupy the utmost lower regions of the negative pole of the Infinite Living Mind of GOD.
As we look toward the positive pole on the scale of Life, higher life forms, which differ in the vibration of mental states appear with which we are familiar, such as vegetation, animals and humans. Higher still, are higher life forms that are at the moment unknowable to most of us. To them, we would only have a "worm consciousness" in the present evolutionary stage of man.
All that is involved becomes evolved. All manifested life evolves as it goes Spiritward, or Divineward. In the evolutionary process, all of creation migrates from Negative, to the Positive Pole of Infinite MIND.  As all of creation migrates upward on the ascending scale of Life and Being, lower life forms evolve into higher life forms as they rise on the scale, because "The ALL," once again draws all of manifested creation back into itself from where it began and causes an increase in the vibratory energy of LIFE and living things which includes the quickening of time.   All of Creation evolves by the will and council of GOD and is an immutable aspect of reality-- "Fate or destiny bearing rule over all...." (Divine Pymander)
Time is a measurement of the constant on going evolutionary process in the Universe.  There are those who believe that there is no evolution, or that evolution is non-existent.  To say that evolution is non existent is to say that there is no time.  Let's explore this concept.  In the process of time, all things are born and die, rise and fall, a creation and destruction of all things in the Universe, a constant process of chemical change and decay that holds the Universe in perpetual motion and change.  Astronomers measure the age of a galaxy, a star, a Universe etc., by establishing the age using the measurement of time.  During this time measurement they can see what happens in the evolutionary process of a star, a world, a galaxy. 
All of us experience changes during the course of our lives.  All these are aspects of evolution that every person experiences and that none of us can mute.  As has been mentioned before, nothing is allowed to stand still.
The human Mind is capable of affecting this evolutionary process as well as the phenomenon of time and depends on the choices a person makes.  When a choice is made that does not flow along with the evolutionary process of the Universe, these individuals will experience resistance and difficulty in their goals and progress in Life.  It can be compared to a swimmer swimming against the flow of a river.  However, there are no two persons that will experience the same evolutionary velocity and progress because of the difference in their Conscious Awareness.  
Time is a relative phenomenon that is multi-faceted in the measurement of advancement, direction, and velocity of the evolutionary progress in all things.  Space is an integral aspect of time and evolution that allows for the constant advancement in the upward spiral of Life and Being.   To say that evolution does not exist is to say that everything is dead, and is a misconception and denial of THE ALL, which is the primal causation of all vibration, motion, and change in the Universe. 
In the observation of individual evolutionary process of time and change, let's view the difference between two people who each have a different Conscious Awareness.  One person is impatient and always runs out of time (tunnel vision).  This individual views Life as though there is not enough time in a day to do and complete things.  Their attitude can be observed in their impatient driving habits and their harsh interactions with other people.  These individuals are always behind and running out of time with everything.  To the Spiritually developed and observing individual, this type of person is experiencing a very slow evolutionary velocity in space and time by reason of their concept of Life.   Time is never going fast enough for them.  This is a paradox that consciousness can create in our lives and it can be very real indeed to the person who creates this concept.  These types of individuals will continue to unconsciously cycle into the same experiences over and over again without realizing their fate.  If they fail to recognize this within the space/time of physical life (subject to entropy), in order to bring a lasting change in their lives and adding years to their living, they will rush from cradle to grave and their advancement will be very small.  They will pick up again from where they left off in the next cycle of physical Life.   This individual has the experience of a very slow evolutionary velocity and progress of their individual lives.  Consequently, time is not enough, or not going fast enough for them.  Most people who fail to awaken spiritually fall into this category.
The person who has developed spiritually, will find that time is going very rapidly for them.  They always find that there is plenty of time to accomplish everything.  Often they will pause and take notice how fast time has come and gone.  They have become increasingly disconnected from a rushing world that never finds enough time to do and accomplish things in one day.   Their rise of Consciousness on the scale of Life and Being has increased the vibratory frequency of time in their lives, above that of the collective mindset that live in the preconceived notions of Life.  The Spiritual individual always lives a peaceful and poised Life, always in control of themselves and their environment, always ready to give a helping hand and be of service to others.  They have the time to help others, unlike the unconscious individual who always rushes through life never pausing for a moment and unable to find time to help others.
These two very different individuals display a difference in the conceptualization of Life and how they are affected by the interesting phenomenon of time.  One has made very little progress, while the other made a quantum leap in the evolutionary progress of time by allowing their Spiritual developed minds to constantly gather energy and information about themselves, and how they can affect their surrounding environment with their Knowledge. 
It would take an immortal human to be able to see the collective change through the ages. What great knowledge and wisdom this immortal being would have accumulated through the ages that would remove all ignorance and superstition from its mind. Unlike, the poor finite mortal and sleeping civilization we know, which are still doing their three score and ten, and then return to do it again on another day. Hopefully, to do it right next time.
It is obvious that the individual's mental makeup can affect the immune system. The membrane between health and disease is extremely subtle and is determined by the individual's state of Mind and equally important, the nutritional intake, the "proper" raw materials the body requires for constant cellular renewal.  When the proper raw elemental materials from the Earth is denied, the body will fall into a state of ailing dysfunction requiring medical attention and intervention which cannot provide a permanent solution without proper nutrition.   This dysfunction will increase the rapidity of aging.  The body is composed of the same mineral elements as the earth and requires its raw materials to function properly.
All automatic body functions at the cellular level, as well as above or below, are controlled by the subconscious plane of Mind without us being aware of its operations ("As Above, so below....").  The subconscious mind manages the cell growth, distribution of food for energy and nourishment.  Its constant work is in the direction of change, repair, digestion, distribution, assimilation, and elimination in the process of constant cellular renewal to maintain the body without us having to think about it.  This subconscious function is present in the physical activity of all mineral, plant, animal, and human existence.  
Subconscious Mind occupies a region of the Mental Planes that is below that of the Conscious Plane of Mind.  Subconscious Mind is an elemental sub-plane that exists between the "manifested" major Planes of Mineral Mind, Plant Mind, Animal Mind, and the Human Mind and partakes of the nature of each in the activity and maintenance of LIFE in all physical entities.  The major Planes of physical Life are but varying degrees and levels of Consciousness which are subject to the functions and activity of the Seven Principles.  All are SPIRIT in nature.
An important fact to keep in mind is that the function of Subconscious Mind is susceptible to suggestions on part of the Conscious Mind in that it can interfere with the autonomous functions of the body and cause "disease."  The conduct of a proper or improper mind, either good or bad, to believe or not believe, is passed on to the Subconscious Mind which acts upon that which it is given and accordingly returns the results to the originating person.  A negative causation of within a person's Mind will have a negative results returned by the Subconscious Mind.  This is the reason why nutritional supplements and medicine will work in some people and not in others.  This is also the reason why placebos work in some people and not in others because of the many complex individual belief systems of various people.   No two people on earth will share the exact same blueprint of belief systems.
"Suggestion" by the Conscious Mind upon the Subconscious Mind has a powerful effect upon the well being of a person and can overrule the efficiency of bodily functions by the negative creation of thoughts, either consciously or unconsciously.  The Subconscious Mind can only act upon what it is given, either good or bad, positive or negative with the resulting manifestations in that person's life.  
For this reason is the training and acquiring of a "proper mind" essential in the health and maintenance of the body and to be able to maintain one's "sanity."  A proper mind is acquired through Spiritual development which gives a person a greater sense of awareness of their own Being and the surrounding environment.  Lesser forms of ideas may be attempted, but ultimately it will be discovered that Spiritual development is an inescapable aspect of human existence.  This is an area of Mind that would be worthy of scientific research in order to help diseased and ailing people and to further our understanding in a realm of human existence that is not apparent, at the moment, to the five bodily senses.  An understanding of this implicate reality will enable the mental forces of psychic healing to cure people for which medical science has no answer or cure.
As we humans learn to develop Spiritually, the Chakras in our bodies are allowed to dilate and an increase in the LIFE Force's flow of energy will bring increased vitality and vibrant health and youth to the body because of rapid cellular change.  Entropy and mortality becomes diminished and eventually eliminated.  
Immortality is a result of Spiritual growth.  Immortality, without Spiritual development and growth, is impossible and un-imaginable to the conditioned mindset of our civilization.  Immortality, as unbelievable as it may be, is very real and not based on fantasy.  It is the result of a certain way the Mental LAW is fulfilled.  It requires a desire, effort, and a training of the Mind in order to rise above the immutable swinging pendulum of change (the cycles).  Remember, the higher toward the fulcrum of the pendulum we move, mentally, the smaller its arc and the lesser the effect of entropy.  This can only be accomplished mentally-- by understanding the role and function of the Seven Principles in the manifested Universe and by using the LAW to our advantage.  It requires a desire, effort, and a cultivation of Mind.  It is of no use to the mentally lazy person whose mind is content with trivia and the wandering about through life. 
It is not an easy path to walk upon because it requires the proper sub-consciousing of the Mind which means changing and discarding outdated and useless belief systems which have been pounded into our heads through time, not to mention the daily barrage of negativity by the news media and TV.  However, all these noisy things can be shut out and eliminated from the quiet Mind and that alone will bring a profound change, and is a first step toward Spiritual development and growth.   The person who walks upon this path will experience the resistance of the difficult old "habit mind" which they have created, unbeknownst to them, by improper sub-consciousing.  But, in the end, the rewards reaped from the efforts will, by far, outweigh the greatest rewards known to the world.  No person can understand this Truth unless they have walked the path themselves.
Science will one day break through the mortal barrier and will help usher a new mental concept of reality that will bring true freedom to humanity.  The barrier between SPIRIT, science, and religion, will be dissolved.   It will be found that the barrier is nothing more than an illusionary mortal concept of reality that is not sustainable. 
THE IMMUTABLE PROCESS AND EVIDENCE OF UPWARD EVOLUTION IN THE MIND OF THE ALL
Today, we hear the old arguments between science and religion regarding evolution.  Science upholds the Darwinian theory of evolution while organized religion denies that evolution exists.  Darwin observed the changes in nature including ourselves but never knew the reason why.  The bible explains creation in an obscure language mystified in symbols and allegories that for the most part escapes most peoples understanding who read its contents.  It is because of this obscurity in the bible that prevented most humans to understand the true process of evolution and to them it can only be seen as a contradiction between science and religion.  The truth is that a contradiction exists because of the limitation that religion has taken the cognition for a half truth.  If the whole truth were to be observed, there would be no contradiction and only the paradox of Life would remain.  A paradox means that there are two sides to a truth that appears as being contradictory but upon a more careful examination it will be discovered that both aspects equally exist in reality and can cause a misunderstanding based on half truths.  While one person sees only a half of a truth, the other may only see the other side of a truth, and they argue who is right.  But to the person who sees and understands both sides will realize that they are both right because each possess an awareness of a half of a truth.  To argue and debate a paradoxical truth would be a futile effort to prove to each other why the other side of the coin does not exist.  We all know that a coin has two sides.  The key here is knowledge.  A knowledge of a whole truth and not one that is based on a half-truth that can cause arguments and debates between the half-wise.  If organized religion will but only release their clutches from their traditions and dogmatic concepts of Life they will find the existence of a much greater reality outside of their box of traditional religious conceptions regarding the God they worship.  It will be discovered that there is no contradiction between the Creator and science.  It only exists in their half-wise conceptions that kept them in their limited box of bondages.  Remember what happened to Galileo when he postulated that the earth revolved around the Sun?  The Catholic religion is now back pedaling out of the mistake they made by calling Galileo a heretic for his scientific position that the earth is not the center of the Universe or that the sun does not revolve around the earth.  At least, they were able to recognize the mistake and a simple change in their attitude towards science would suffice and better serve them.  It takes courage for a group of people to override their ego of vanity.  Unity and harmony cannot be accomplished by the half-wise but by knowing the whole Truth.  This is why an open mind and the practice of humility allows a person to be teachable and acquire a knowledge that escapes the half-wise who bicker and argue amongst themselves as they waste their time in "who is right."
The evidence of constant change is undeniable.  To find the answer, we have to look at ourselves and the environment surrounding us.  What do we see when we look back in history?  What changes do we see?  What is the cause of these changes?  Why do we age?  How has technology affected us?  Technology displays the fastest process of evolution of the human mind when we consider that at one time our forefathers have traveled by horse and buggy while we, today, sit in modern transportation such as jet flight that made it possible to travel longer distances in less time.  Is this not an indication that the human mind is advancing thru time?  When we look back in the distant past of our ancestors we find that they lived in caves for protection and they were forced to work hard to find food.  They spend most of their time running and hunting to catch their food to stay alive, while we today, drive our cars to the grocery store buy our food and watch TV in the comfort of our homes.  How will this affect our physical bodies and health thru time?  The caveman displayed a rugged body that resembles a wild animal while we who sit in the comfort of our home have refined bodies that are not as tough and rugged as our distant ancestors.  Our ancestors were compelled to have tough bodies because of the environment they live in and because of a lack of a material infrastructure that we enjoy today.  Is this not an advancement thru time?  Time is the master key of evolution and is immutable.  To stop evolution we have to find a way to cease time.  If we can stop time, we become galvanized and frozen in time without the possibility of advancement or bodily movement.  The sun will never set or rise, our earth would become extremely hot on one side and extremely cold on other making it impossible to sustain life.  This is not an option we can accomplish because we do not possess the power or wisdom of INFINITE SPIRIT.  Mankind is mortal only because of his one sided view of the reality he lives in.  The view of a mortal mankind is that of entropy as he and she sees everything decays and renews in their environment and watch their bodies becoming decrepit in old age.  All this denotes the change in time while we are physically present on the Great Physical Plane.  Evolution is a fact that is immutable as time is immutable.  Time is the heartbeat of evolution and holds all things in constant change.  Change is all there is in our physical lives.  We can and will change thru time whether or not the change is benevolent depends on our choices.  Albert Einstein once said, "The last war will be fought with sticks and stones,"  because of his awareness that nuclear energy can become misused and abused that can cause enormous if not total destruction.  If this were to occur, mankind today, that is, those who may survive, would experience a backward evolution, contradictory to SPIRIT'S intention, that will place them in the same class as their ancestors, back into the caves for survival.  Their bodies will adapt to the new environment in the lapse of time and they will once again resemble their tough hairy ancestors as they will be forced to retrace "the backward road they've trodden" to regain their freedom.  Still they will fight their wars, but not with modern weapons but with sticks and stones because of a lack of a material infrastructure that was destroyed by nuclear destruction.  It is possible that this may have already occurred in the distant past of our ancestors.  War is the ugliest thing that exists on this planet and there are no nice words for war.  There is no glory in war.  Only the clash of the vain egos that is submerged in stupidity.  There are no winners in war.  Only losers.  War occurs because of the lack of Knowledge and Wisdom to resolve issues.  Because of the lack of the words of wisdom, the only option is to resort to physical force, just like our ancestors of the caves or like children in a playpen who fight over their toys because they have not yet developed the knowledge and wisdom to share.  Nature will take action to provide surviving humans with bodily hair and by whatever means is necessary to preserve the humans who have survived.  The direction of SPIRIT is in the preservation of mankind because all of mankind is a holographic image of SPIRIT itself.  All of us are immutably and infinitely connected to SPIRIT.
The following is an excerpt of The Kybalion written by "Three Initiates" regarding the process of evolution and why it is a Truth.  This excerpt is placed under the heading of The Principle of Polarity as upward evolution occurs because of this Principles and all of Life goes Divineward or Spiritward from Negative to Positive. The  Negative pole is the beginning of the manifestation of physical reality in SPIRIT and terminates in the Positive pole of SPIRIT.  This Law of evolution occurs because all of reality is drawn back into SPIRIT from where it was manifested and so all things are compelled to travel Divineward that we experience as the constant change in a cyclic process that will repeat again and again thru eons of our time, a measurement of time that is so large, that it is outside the capability of mankind's brain to comprehend.  Without evolution is the advancement of all of reality including ourselves impossible.  Why is it so?  To find an answer to this would be impossible because we would have to understand the inner nature of SPIRIT which is impossible because of its Infinite and Absolute stature.  SPIRIT'S inner nature is only KNOWN TO  ITSELF and will always remain unknowable to us.  It cannot be compared to the experience of our feelings, thoughts, and activities.  It's far beyond all that....

INVOLUTION; THE OUTPOURING OF THE DIVINE ENERGY OF SPIRIT
The Manifestation of The Grossest Primordial forms of Matter in The Material Universe
in The Mind of THE ALL
EVOLUTION; THE SPIRITWARD ADVANCEMENT OF ALL LIFE
The Onward and Upward Advancement of all Life and Matter
And, in the degree that Man realizes the existence of the Indwelling Spirit immanent within his being, so will he rise in the spiritual scale of life. This is what spiritual development means–the recognition, realization, and manifestation of the Spirit within us. Try to remember this last definition–that of spiritual development. It contains the Truth of True Religion.  There are many planes of Being–many sub-planes of Life–many degrees of existence inthe Universe. And all depend upon the advancement of beings in the scale, of which scale the lowest point is the grossest matter, the highest being separated only by the thinnest division from the SPIRIT of THE ALL. And, upward and onward along this Scale of Life, everything is moving. All are on the Path, whose end is THE ALL. All progress is a Returning Home. All is Upward and Onward, in spite of all seemingly contradictory appearances. Such is the Message of the Illumined.  The Hermetic Teachings concerning the process of the Mental Creation of the Universe, are that at the beginning of the Creative Cycle, THE ALL, in its aspect of “Being,” projects its Will toward its aspect of “Becoming,” and the process of creation begins. It is taught that the process consists of the lowering of Vibration until a very low degree of vibratory energy is reached, at which point the grossest possible form of Matter is manifested. This process is called the stage of Involution, in which THE ALL becomes “involved,” or “wrapped up,” in its creation. This process is believed by the Hermetists to have a Correspondence to the mental process of an artist, writer, or inventor, who becomes so wrapped up in his mental creation as to almost forget his own existence and who, for the time being, almost “lives in his creation”.  If instead of “wrapped” we use the word “rapt,” perhaps we will give a better idea of what is meant.
This Involuntary stage of Creation is sometimes called the “Outpouring” of the Divine Energy, just as the Evolutionary state is called the “Indrawing.” The extreme pole of the Creative process is considered to be the furthest removed from THE ALL, while the beginning of the Evolutionary stage is regarded as the beginning of the return swing of the pendulum of Rhythm–a “coming home” idea being held in all of the Hermetic Teachings.  The Teachings are that during the “Out-pouring,” the vibrations become lower and lower until finally the urge ceases, and the return swing begins. But there is this difference, that while in the “Outpouring” the creative forces manifest compactly and as a whole, yet from the beginning of the Evolutionary or “Indrawing” stage, there is manifested the Law of Individualization–that is, the tendency to separate into Units of Force, so that finally that which left THE ALL as individualized energy returns to its source as countless highly developed Units of Life, having risen higher and higher in the scale by means of Physical, Mental and Spiritual Evolution.  The ancient Hermetists use the word “Meditation,” in describing the process of the mental creation of the Universe in the Mind of THE ALL, the word “Contemplation” also being frequently employed. But the idea intended seems to be that of the employment of the Divine Attention.  “Attention” is a word derived from the Latin root, meaning “to reach out; to stretch out,” and so the act of Attention is really a mental “reaching out; extension” of mental energy, so that the underlying idea is readily understood when we examine into the real meaning of “Attention.”  The Hermetic Teachings regarding the process of Evolution are that, THE ALL, having meditated upon the beginning of the Creation–having thus established the material foundations of the Universe–having thought it into existence–then gradually awakens or rouses from its Meditation and in so doing starts into manifestation the process of Evolution, on the material, mental and spiritual planes, successively and in order. Thus the upward movement begins–and all begins to move Spiritward. Matter becomes less gross; the Units spring into being; the combinations begin to form; Life appears and manifests in higher and higher forms; and Mind becomes more and more in evidence–the vibrations constantly becoming higher. In short, the entire process of Evolution, in all of its phases, begins, and proceeds according to the established Laws of the “Indrawing” process. All of this occupies æons upon æons of Man's time, each æon containing countless millions of years, but yet the Illumined inform us that the entire creation, including Involution and Evolution, of an Universe, is but “as the twinkle of the eye” to THE ALL. At the end of countless cycles of æons of time, THE ALL withdraws its Attention–its Contemplation and Meditation–of the Universe, for the Great Work is finished–and All is withdrawn into THE ALL from which it emerged. 
“While All is in THE ALL, it is equally true that THE ALL is in All. To him who truly understands this truth hath come great knowledge.” 
The Three Initiates of "The Kybalion"


December 14, 2009
There is a misconception by most people including scientific circles because of the conceptualization of limited thinking and because of the ridged conceptions of religious dogma, doctrines, and general misinformation.   All these are like an anchor that prevents a ship from moving along at its designed speed.  Science has given a more accurate description of evolution while some elements in the Christian religion completely deny the existence of evolution.  What is the reason and why does evolution occur?  Many heard of evolution but really don't know what it is or why it is.  Still, others believe that man was at one time an ape and evolved into what we humans are today.  
Those who have studied the book of Genesis where Adam and Eve were standing naked before God and they gathered the leaves to cover their nakedness?  What does this mean?  Adam and Eve were believed to be two individuals, a man and a woman.  The truth is that Adam and Eve are the primordial creation of the human Soul in accordance with the Principle of Gender.  Adam represented the masculine aspect of the human Soul, while Eve is the feminine aspect of that same Soul.  Adam and Eve are the allegory in the Book of Genesis that denotes the Principle of Gender in the developing human Soul while still in its "unit of energy" state and emerging from the Great Creator.  Adam and Eve were never two individual humans.  That comes later.  When they, the Souls, gathered the leaves to cover themselves because they stood naked before God, that is, they had no physical body present and thus the Human Soul gathered material substance as it separated from the grosses forms of matter and human like entities spring into being.  This is only one example of a developing human Soul but there were other human units of energy who appeared on the material plane at the same time who became unique individuals with unique personalities and unique physical features while becoming separated from SPIRIT.  The separation occurs so that these unique individuals of which some were males and others became female will be able to exercise their own free will (free moral agents) and the reproductive process of humans begins and populating the Earth while still in its primitive stage of consciousness.  The Great Principle of Gender rules the manifestation of male and female in all Life forms in the Universe and is therefore imbued with the image of the Great Creator who is LIFE itself and because of this is all of mankind inseparable from SPIRIT but they can only be separated as unique individuals from each other.  This beginning of the units of human Life forms springing into being from the grossest forms of matter and the cyclic sexual reproductive process began and perpetuates according to the Principle of Gender followed by the perpetual cycles of Life, death, and rebirth ruled by the Principle of RHYTHM.  This cyclic process of the perpetual swing of the pendulum exists in the Plane of Mineral, Vegetable, Animal, and Man.   The question, "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" is an unanswerable question because without an egg there can be no chicken and without the chicken there can be no egg.  However, when the creative process of manifestation is understood in that SPIRIT is the beginning of all things such as mentioned in this paragraph, we can understand that male and female chickens had to be manifested for sexual reproduction to occur before eggs can be created to maintain the existence of the species.  The removal of Adam's rib to create woman is, unfortunately, written by a person in the distant past who had no understanding of the Creative process of SPIRIT and caused mankind to be misled in the understanding of the Creation that was known to the ancient philosophers.
When Adam and Eve stood before the Tree of Life of "good and evil," the Soul is given the complete liberty to choose between good and evil followed by the consequences of "fate or destiny" bearing rule over all (Cause and Effect).  Once the Soul recognized how the tree of Life, of good and evil functions, it became knowledgeable of its choices in that it can choose between the two.  The tree of Life, of good and evil, is the human nervous system that gives the Soul the ability to interact with the Great Physical Plane while choosing daily between "good and evil."  This Soul's surrounding becomes an extension of its consciousness as it continues to develop into higher states of awareness.  When the human nervous system is isolated from its fleshy part, the nervous system resembles a tree with roots and branches.  This is the tree of good and evil, the choices we make today in Life between the two and utilizing our complex nervous system.  Based on the choices in our self awareness do we determine the longevity of our own lives and state of health we are in and whether or not we suffer from bodily disease which is an indication of a mortal man or woman which will eventually terminate in physical death.  The Chakras must be allowed to continue to dilate as we move upward and onward in the scale of Life and there is an increase of the Life Force of SPIRIT emerging thru the seven gateways of our bodies.  THE ALL is always present in the center of everything, an atomic particle, our bodies, the earth, the Sun, a galaxy, a quasar, a supernova, a Universe.  The light in the center of all these things shows the presence of Infinite SPIRIT at work in their manifestation.  This is what it means, "GOD is Light."  All of that we can see with our eyes is an outward manifestation of INFINITE SPIRIT while SPIRIT itself can only be observed by our Minds in "understanding" which in itself is invisible.  An increased understanding of SPIRIT within us is an invisible observation that can bring understanding to our seeing eyes of our material world.  Not only do we see everything around us, but there is an invisible mental aspect in our Minds that enables us to understand what we see and it gives a meaning to Life and its involution and evolutionary process.  
When we can understand that the Universe has been "thought" into existence by the Infinite Living Divine Mind of THE ALL, we can understand why the Universe is Mental in nature.  We can also see ourselves as units of Life endowed with Mind and Consciousness existing within this INFINITE LIVING MIND (We live move and have our being within God.).  An understanding of this demands respect and piety for all of Life and living as everything that we say or do is done in the presence of the all seeing MIND of THE ALL.  There is nothing that can escape THE ALL.  All is hermetically sealed within SPIRIT.  If we want to understand how large the presence of SPIRIT is, then imagine the size of the Universe with all its clusters of galaxies that are enveloped by this powerful grip of "dark energy" that will determine the fate of all the galaxies and our entire Universe.  Then look at ourselves living on the Earth.  We consider our Earth to be very large because it has many continents and it can take hours or days to traverse the continents by modern jet flight.  By comparison, our Earth is miniscule even within our own Solar system not to mention the Milky Way galaxy of which our Solar system is a member.  How shall we comprehend that we have to travel for billions of light years, that is, traveling at approximately 186,000 miles per second for fifteen billion years to traverse the "known" Universe?  That is roughly eight times around the earth in one second.  Then determine how many seconds there are in fifteen billion years.  That equation would be beyond the capability of the Human Mind to comprehend unless mathematical exponents are employed and then it still means nothing to the average person.  The size of the Universe is beyond the logical comprehension of the Human Mind and then to think that it can only exist within the INFINITE MIND of THE ALL.  If THE ALL is non-existent then the Universe does not exist and neither does our Earth and we will not be reading and writing right now.  We have a greater understanding of the Universe then we have of the Mentalism of Human consciousness.  That is because humans spend most of their time enjoying or destroying the external material world without paying attention to the Truth that there is an internal world of Mind and Consciousness that cannot be measured with mathematical equations.  It can only be observed in the understanding of the Mind which itself is an invisible component of the Human body and makes it possible for humans to become animated.  This same principle applies to all living creatures great and small as each occupies its own plane of Life and being.  An understanding of these things in the Human Mind will give man or woman a meaning of Life and this alone will cause the rapid development of Spirituality within them and they experience a paradigm shift in their thinking and a quantum leap in their evolution as the presence of SPIRIT within them will respond by increasing and expanding their conscious awareness without feeling attached to the chessboard of Life that is controlled by many arrogant, domineering and controlling humans who live in the grip of fear.  The Spiritually developed person will experience excitement in his or her Life and their freedom will be enhanced because they know how to use their freedom without abusing it.  Those who abuse freedom will find themselves in a miserable state of mind without vision of the future but to vilify, and to lie against the Truth.  They will have no direction in Life but to destroy and blame others for their miseries.  Observe the daily world events and observe the facial expressions of those involved and you can see this in the expression of their face.  The eyes are the windows of the Soul that cannot lie.
Examine everything and question everything for yourself but most importantly --think for yourselves and when you find an answer and see it on your own, you will know what the Truth is and where it is.  Do not become swayed by the innocently appearing misinformation that is so prevalent in our society today.  Avoid the self made blabber-mouths of noise who babble misinformation.  You can recognize them by the fruits they bear.  "Be as wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove."  Harm no man lest harm will come to you.... (Cause & Effect)
As THE ALL awakens from its deep meditation during the creative process of the Universe and begins to draw all of creation back into itself and the units of Life evolve into higher and higher forms and Mind becomes more and more in evidence, the units of Life approach the thinner divisions of SPIRIT in their upward movement and consciousness of the self spring into being.  Today, man and woman on this planet are the results of that primordial event in the Creative process that occurred many eons ago and now we have to learn and recognize where we came from and where we are going and taking into account that fate or destiny bears rule over all.  Proper initiation of our Minds is of utmost importance if we are to live and learn and to preserve ourselves in the Great Physical Plane.  We must allow ourselves to grow mentally and spiritually.  This is all part of the reality we live in.  
While the units of Human Life sprung into being, along with this process came the mineral, vegetable, animal, and Human Mind as each occupies its own proper Plane of Life and Being.  Minerals sprung into being to feed the physical living entities in the vegetable, animal, and the human plane.  This process known as the "food chain" today is a filtering process from pure SPIRIT energy that is downsized so that we are not consumed by its absolute energy.  Humans have not yet evolved to the point to use or withstand the pure energy of SPIRIT.  However there are humans who have attained self mastery and they cannot burn or be consumed by higher forms of energy.  They are able to by-pass the food chain and live on the higher forms of energy without having to rely on the filtering process of the food chain.  A lower form of SPIRIT energy is the sun in our Solar system and is miniscule compared to the pure Energy of Infinite Mind.  Our bodies would vaporize before we can even come close to the sun.  There are various degrees of energy throughout the Universe.  All are subject to the filtering law of SPIRIT as Fate or Destiny bears rule over all in the Universe.
The units of Life (mankind to be) that sprung up and that were evolving would indicate that we did not evolve from the apes but rather that we were unique units of Life that were intended to be the humans that we are today.  The units of energy that evolved into the apes that we see in nature today are unique units of Life and Mind manifested in the Mind of THE ALL and occupying their own unique plane of Life and Being.  The evolution of the apes is much slower than mankind and their fate or destiny is only known to SPIRIT.  Man may have resembled an ape like form such as the Java man, the Neanderthals, and the Cro-Magnon because they were the Units of Energy where Mind was developing and becoming more and more in evidence but were still extremely primitive with animal like qualities because they were closer to the "grossest forms of matter" but were in the upward process of evolution as SPIRIT awakened from its meditation during the Creative process.  As the Mind and limited consciousness of primitive man evolved into higher states of consciousness with greater knowledge and awareness, his and her physical features would also have to evolve to accommodate the higher vibratory energy of the expanded consciousness and thus causing the Human body to evolve into higher and finer physical features that may eventually dissolve into a unique ray of Light somewhere in the future of time.  And, higher still will humans evolve and who will eventually become beings of light that would increasingly resemble the image of the Infinite Creator.  This author can't help but wonder if the galaxies we see around us today are perhaps beings that were at one time as we are today and who have evolved into the gods of their own unique galactic domain.  "Know ye not that ye are gods?" as Jesus taught during "Sermon of the Mount."  We may see them as galaxies from our Earth but there could be more things occurring than meets the eye.  And to think that our Earth exists within the Milky Way galaxy.  Who is this god that rules our galaxy, but who will always be subservient and subject to the LAW of Infinite SPIRIT?  Are we the prodigies of this god who will assist us to eventually evolve into the gods of our own galaxy?  The Universe is infinitely large enough to accommodate all humans as the gods of our own galaxy.  This is not a plausible scientific concept and may be extremely laughable that is subject to scorn and revilement.  Given the condition of the human consciousness today and the mental mess that some in the race consciousness dwells in, the mockery, scorn, and revilement is understandable.  Nevertheless, when looking back into the far distant past when the foundations of the Universe were established in SPIRIT, and viewing today's existence and then looking at the future and looking at the composition of the Universe I can't help but see that there is a powerful correspondence in all this because the evolutionary process is the indrawing of everything back into the  realm of pure SPIRIT energy and thus we will eventually evolve into beings of light because of our increasingly higher position in the scale of LIFE.  Sort of like throwing off the old mortal rags and putting on Immortal clothing of LIGHT.  All of us will always exist in one form or another but we will never experience true "death" because it does not exist given the structure of the Universe.  We may cycle between physical embodiment and disembodiment, but this process will eventually dissolve us into pure LIGHT beings and a physical body is no longer needed as a physical body can no longer accommodate the Light energy without burning up.  This is the future of Humanity as far fetched as it maybe.  Any person who can see the evolutionary process for themselves will understand this concept because we now know where we came from, and where we are today, and where it all is going.  If I could give you logical equations to help in the understanding of all this, I would gladly do it.  But, how can these things be scientifically explained through equations?  Also, how can one man be racist against another, or murder another man unless that individual dwells in gross ignorance that results in the gross evil they commit?
From the primordial unique units of energy that includes the collective human race today, to the primordial human soul, to the Java man, the Neanderthal, and the Cro-Magnon man, and others not mentioned, to today's humans, evolution will draw us nearer to the GREAT CREATOR or is it the Great Attractor (in the Universe)?  And, we become as Beings of LIGHT and become as gods, as we approach the pure realm of SPIRIT and our Souls will blaze with the LIGHT of pure SPIRIT and we are clothed in the LIGHT OF GOD (transfigured).  But, as always, though THE ALL is within all of mankind, we cannot or will ever be THE ALL in All....  We will always experience some degree of locality in the Universe no matter how great or small that keeps us unique and separate from each other, but the separateness that we experience today between us will become increasingly narrower as we approach the realm of SPIRIT.
In the evolutionary process, humans share similar physical properties with the apes in that we all have ten digits on our hands and ten on our feet.  The reason for this has something to do with SPIRIT.  Being that the Human form has something to do with SPIRIT as do the ape forms, the difference is that humans occupy a higher plane of Mind than do the apes but nevertheless the Principles of Life connects all of us together, even with the apes because of the structure of the various planes of Life and Being within SPIRIT.  All are living entities that live, move, and have their being within God.  Evolution is meaningless when the SPIRIT of GOD is left out of the equation.  This is what the world needs to learn and understand.  There is no other way.  Anything else will only be a folly that will deepen the mystery of evolution.
Apes evolve much more slowly than human entities for reasons because of their position in the scale of Life.  Humans occupy a higher vibratory Plane than do the apes and therefore is the conscious awareness of the ape limited to its own plane, as is worm consciousness.  They would have no understanding of the Universe as we humans do.  The lower forms of Life are also subject to elimination in that they will disappear from the Great Physical Plane to be replaced by newer life forms and this alone will deepen the mystery of evolution.  But, THE ALL Knows what it is doing and we can only stand in stupefied awe and wonder and thank SPIRIT for our physical presence where we can bear witness of its work in the entire Universe.
The earth is a combination of seven elements and has a very hot core; she is a living entity of Life and for man to have something to walk upon and to have a sense of locality and direction in this topless and bottomless Universe.  Without this Earth, who will say what is up or what is down or where left or right is?  In view of all these things, can you the reader see and understand the meaning of why "We live, move, and have our being within God?"  If you can understand this, your are on your way in discovering more about this God that the world speaks of but knows nothing about.  By the increase in Spiritual Knowledge you become self referred and you will add to the puzzle of Knowledge that will be unique and you will discover that you do not need ministers, gurus, clerics or other religious leaders who know nothing about SPIRIT (but they can learn).  You can also see why evolution has no meaning without admitting the presence of SPIRIT in all things.  Omitting the presence of SPIRIT in the Creative process and the evolutionary process of creation becomes nothing more than intellectual babbling and is left open for perpetual theorizing (subject to change), debate, and argument (not to mention "war").  It is because of this Creative process that we as humans are connected together, we are the brotherhood of mankind (without exception), as we travel upward and onward in the evolutionary process of time.  To speed the evolutionary process toward SPIRIT, we need to help each other with open Mind and constantly looking deep into the reality of SPIRIT so that we can do things properly while enjoying the unfolding secrets of the Universe and how we can expand into true freedom and enhance life's enjoyment in the true sense of the word.  
The Big Bang theory is exactly what it says it is it is a theory.  However, during the outpouring of Divine Energy before it manifested the "grosses forms of matter," THE ALL mentally stretched out its MIND (its aspect of Being) to the stage of proper mental vibratory energy where the grosses forms of matter became possible, or something that resembles matter, came into being (its aspect of becoming) and thus the material foundations of the Universe were established.  This Divine outpouring of energy denotes an outward pressing of pure energy and is a pushing type force that established the material foundations of the Universe.  It must have been a display of Energy that resembles an enormous explosion of nuclear energy.  This outpouring of Divine Energy may have caused the scientific community to view this as the "Big Bang theory." In the Big Bang theory, the Universe expands to the point where it stops expanding and eventually collapses back into itself which is not too far from the in-drawing process of SPIRIT in the process of Evolution.  Science is baffled when their theory suggests that the Universe is supposed to stop expanding and thus it is slowing down.  Instead, it is expanding at an increasing rapid rate to the point that scientists see galaxies being pulled apart and view it as the death of the Universe.  This is a mystery to science.  You will kindly remember the in-drawing of all Life toward SPIRIT in the process of evolution in that all of Life is drawn upward thru the various dimensions of Life and being and an increase of vibratory energy occurs as all things approach the realm of pure SPIRIT, the thinnest division between matter and SPIRIT and is getting thinner as SPIRIT draws everything back into itself from where all Life and matter emerged.  The dissolution of the galaxies of which our Milky Way galaxy is a member will eventually follow the same fate as the galaxies that have gone before it.  This will occur thru the lapse of eons of time.  
The outpouring of Divine Energy (Involution) denotes an outward pushing or a manifesting force of Infinite Mind that established the foundations of the Universe and its complementary counter part --Evolution.  While involution is a pushing or manifesting force or an explosive force (Big Bang) as science puts it that made the Universe possible, there is also the in-drawing process of evolution that counters the pushing power of involution after the explosion of Divine Energy.  The presence of Dark Energy is an immense gravitational force that pervades all of Universal Space and may be suspected as the primary cause of evolution that has a powerful grip on all celestial bodies in the Universe without exception. Dark Matter is a subcomponent of Dark Energy.  This powerful dark energy may be the reason of the in-drawing (evolution) process of SPIRIT being that it is a powerful gravitational force that holds the galaxies in place and moves them thru the Universe toward SPIRIT (evolution).   Science may be observing the dissolution of galaxies as they are witnessing the return of their elements back into SPIRIT from where they emerged.  Mortal man should have no fear as there is nothing he or she can do about evolution except to rise above it and that would require self-mastery.  The world today is for the most part vindictive, arrogant, ignorant, and undisciplined and they will travail thru the ravages of time and war which primary cause is fear.  But, fear has its own father and that father is --ignorance.  That's the bottom line.
If science can positively determine that dark energy is a powerful gravitational force, they can lay the foundations in the evidence of evolution that is connected to the evolutionary process of the Universe.  Dark energy is most likely to be a powerful gravitational force that pulls all of the celestial bodies into a certain direction and is the cause of space itself, hence, the vacuum of space and absolute zero (cold).  A gravitational pulling effect would denote evolution while a pushing effect would denote involution or the Divine outpouring of THE ALL.  Which is it?  Is it a pushing or a pulling force that moves the galaxies?  On which side of the direction of travel of the galaxies is the force exerted?  Is it a pushing force or a pulling force?  A pushing force denotes an explosive (hot) type of condition (involution) while a pulling force (cold) would denote a gravitational pull, that is, evolution.  We'll leave the equations to the physicists....

In the end of all discoveries it will be found that all is SPIRIT.

"Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates." -The Kybalion
IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Principle of Rhythm manifests the Naval Chakra of our bodies, the region of the Solar Plexus, origin of emotions, and is responsible for the distribution of food in the body. The Naval Chakra continues its manifestation of the Adrenal gland which regulates the use of food, and helps the body adjust to stress. The Adrenal gland  produces Hydrocortisone

The manifestation of this Principle, on the Physical Plane, is the most visible of all principles and its power is observed within the forces of nature that move the waves and tides of our oceans and the perpetual change of the seasons. It is observed in the continuous cycles of life, death, and the rebirth of all things, a rise and fall of nations and governments , a constant creation and destruction of suns, worlds, and galaxies. On the plane of energy is the Principle of RHYTHM observed in the behavior of the alternating current wave of electricity, light, and heat as it vibrates between the positive and negative pole.  RHYTHM rules the cyclic process of all bodily functions in Humans such as the Rhythm of the heart, lungs, menstruation, digestion, to name a few, and the process of entropy or decay.
The image below was created in 1993 and displays the rhythms of Universal Cosmic Law as it rules the cycles mentioned in the above paragraph.   The cycles indicate that evolution causes all of Life to spiral upward and onward toward the center of INFINITE LIVING MIND from where everything has its beginning in the manifestation of Mind, Life, and Matter; "the indefinite beginning." As all of Life spirals toward its center, it rises on the ascending scale and causes a constant change in all things, the Minds of humans, animals, and the advancement of technology.  The higher the Life forms, the more rapid the evolutionary process because of an increase in the vibratory frequency of MIND as it approaches the realm of pure SPIRIT.

RHYTHM on the mental plane is experienced as the wide mood swings that often occur in human nature in various degrees and grades. It can be experienced as extreme happiness, and swing to extreme sadness, from a gentle behavior to an extremely violent behavior at the blink of an eye.  These are the attributes of a Spiritually undeveloped Mind that dwells upon the animal plane of thought, having no awareness of its own negative causation.  When thoughts dwell upon a low vibratory mental degree, this condition may be accompanied by an abnormal animalistic sexual appetite that can not be extinguished and is often mingled with its violent behavior.  Mostly self centered, greedy, and egotistic in disposition, making a pleasant, friendly, and intimate, relationship impossible.   This type of individual is a prisoner of its own BRUTISH TORMENTS that ultimately leads to self destruction and resulting loss of the body if a fundamental change within his or her Mind is not accomplished.

The Spiritually developed individual, however, because of expanded awareness, has a different view and experience in the Rhythms of Life and the resulting accomplishments and manifestations in LIFE.  Yogi Ramacharaka expressed this awareness of RHYTHM in his mantram, or mental affirmation of Sub-conscious Influences when he wrote : 
There is but One Life--One Life Underlying.   This Life is manifesting through ME, and through every other shape, form, and thing.  I am resting on the bosom of the Great Ocean of Life, and rejoice as I feel the sway of its motion.  Nothing can harm me--though changes may come and go, I am Safe.  I am One with All Life, and its Power, Knowledge, and Peace are behind, underneath, and within me.  O!  One Life!  express Thyself through me--carry me now on the crest of the wave, now deep down in the trough of the ocean--supported always by Thee--all is good to me, as I feel Thy life moving in and through me.  I am Alive, through thy life, and I open myself to thy full manifestation and inflow.
RHYTHM is the law of Equilibrium and Compensation and maintains the balance in all things. It returns to us what we measure out in life. The return swing of the pendulum is assured without fail and there is no escape from the effects of this immutable Law. This Law holds us true to what we believe, or not believe, and compensates us accordingly. All of nature follows this law. Realized or not, the collective mindset of human behavior has a direct effect upon the elements of the surrounding environment.
RHYTHM perpetuates the phenomenon of time.  Time is a measurement of the constant onward and upward evolutionary progress and process of Life and Being.  Everything is in constant change, nothing ever stays or endures, everything comes and goes.  The pendulum like swing of RHYTHM is immutable and we can only counteract its backward swing by mentally polarizing ourselves in a desirable position on the ascending scale of life. Unlike the masses of people who are swung back and forth having no will of their own and who obey the wills, wishes, and efforts of others. The masses who are mere pawns on the chessboard of life having no desire or will of their own.  Most have assumed a position of "no action."  These type of humans become subject to the workings and operations of RHYTHM.  Nevertheless, they have their footing firmly fixed on the path of evolution and their upward progress is inevitable, but not without much suffering.
It would require a dedicated personal commitment to cultivate the "Unknown" within all of us in order to cause a quantum leap in the evolutionary process of Life with all its aches and pains. This is a mental art that is known to hierophants, adepts, and masters of ancient Egypt.
Is that allowed you might ask? You bet! We will fulfill the Law one way or another. Either use the LAW to your advantage, or become its subject. The door of Universal Law swings in all directions. The final result depends what you have chosen to believe and whether or not your belief system allows you to see the truth as it really is. If you do not want to know or you do not care, then you will evolve through the standard process of evolution. Remember, nothing can or is allowed to stand still.
There are many various belief systems in our world and a person can assume and incorporate any belief system into their lives.   The question one has to ask, does that belief hold any substance in reality?   The Universe does not operate under a, his and hers, yours and mine, theirs and ours, rule of beliefs.  Universal Cosmic Law is cut and dry, and operates of its own accord regardless of beliefs.  Believing is a learning phase of trial and error that will eventually transmute into a solid, unchanging, Arcane Knowledge--"The things that are, and All that is."   
Evolution, in many cases, is not a very pleasant experience. When we have lost someone we love, little do we realize that the evolutionary process of the Universe has been fulfilled. We simply accept the consequences of our belief system without question and succumb ourselves to the waiting line.

THE RHYTHMS OF THE WORLD ECONOMY
The Principle of RHYTHM affects the global economic systems and is tied to the behavior of human consciousness.  Because of this connection, the world economic system is driven by a collective consciousness of Mental energy that is subject to the complex rise and fall of world consciousness in its conduct of commerce.  The mental element of fear and mistrust cause humans to enter into a protective, self preserving, mental mode of operation.  When this is multiplied across the grid of the collective human consciousness, this behavior is translated by the bar graphs of the world economic systems which reflects the rise or fall of the stock markets.  The world economy is "energy" driven by the collective mindset of human consciousness.  The tidal forces of Cosmic RHYTHMS powerfully influence human behavior in particular when humans do not exercise a focused will in their conduct of Life and they fail to exercise a "proper Mind."  
When humans in a corporate environment corroborate and collaborate in dishonesty and theft and do it in a greedy, cunning, and secret manner, under the auspices of "good business", they have in their ignorance perpetuated The Principle of RHYTHM with Karmic implications that will bring them a just "compensation" according to their efforts.  Even, when the law of the land fails to prevent them from doing so.  Many companies and corporations have become dissolved and extinct without ever recognizing the CAUSE AND EFFECT of their dissolution.
If a government looks the other way and fails to enforce the law and allows them to continue to operate in such a bestial manner, that government shares the responsibility under the Principle of RHYTHM with immediate Karmic implications of their future.  A dangerous trend in the monetary system's "energy."   The keen and silent Spiritual observer sees the underlying causations of the many examples that are in the record of history.  They can see and observe the God-less-ness that exists in today's market place and protect themselves accordingly.   The unconditional SPIRIT of THE ALL is not asleep, neither is it "dead."
The ancient commerce was build upon solid foundations of Spiritual Principles that made that system prosperous because of the Knowledge and Understanding how the Cosmic Principles operate and how it effects wealth and prosperity.   They were able to utilize these Principles to their advantage and were able to accumulate great wealth and prosperity for all people and establish peace amongst themselves.  The great Crystal race has since disappeared off of the face of the earth and the Solar System without a trace, unbeknownst to today's human race.  Only they will know where they are.  In contrast, today's world economy is based on greedy monetary attachment in the accumulation of wealth bringing misery to humans who must work for a living to maintain their families. 
Greed makes people blind and weak and they are unable to utilize their wealth properly.  Eventually it will break their greedy clutches from wealth and find their ending in poverty and destitution.  Don't believe it?  Just sit back and watch the show in the shaping of world events.

RHYTHM: THE CYCLIC PROCESS OF LIFE, DEATH, AND REBIRTH
This cyclic process is governed by the Principle of RHYTHM and is immutable.  There is nothing that can stop this process of Entropy that is currently known to man, that is, the dying or death of the body.  We see the cyclic change in each other, the animals, vegetation, bacteria, governments, countries, worlds, galaxies, and everything around us, even in the atomic particles.  Even the religions of the world cannot avoid change as they must change as time changes all things in Life.  It is the evolution of all things.  Evolution denotes the Upward and Onward process of all things in the process of time.  Nothing is allowed to stand still.  The "Upward and Onward process" is a constant presence in Life and is immutable.  There is only one thing that is not subject to this change, and that is the SPIRIT of THE ALL because it is above all vibration, motion and change in the Universe.  THE ALL is the CAUSE and EFFECT  of all that vibrates, moves, and evolves in the Universe and in the Nature of the Earth and our bodies.  This is known to the Ancient Philosophers who were aware of the Presence of THE ALL and who were "enabled" to see the GREATNESS OF GOD.  The GREATNESS OF GOD has been preached from the pulpits of Christianity, the synagogues, the temples, and the mosques, without ever having a concept and understanding of the Ancient Philosophers whose Knowledge of THE ALL has been forlorn in the lapse of time and we are left with the ignorant and warring religions of the world who attempt to convince the world that their religion is right.  Is it a wonder why we have atheists in the world?  Most religions are the creator of atheists because of the rampant religious hypocrisy that dominates the public's eye and they are convinced that there is no God.  They have not yet learned to keep their mouth shut and keep their eyes and ears open so that the SPIRIT can respond to them and they can be filled with Knowledge and Wisdom.  Until then, war and destruction will continue and there will be no unity, peace, prosperity, or happiness, for them and their children or their children's children.  THE LAW or SPIRIT will visit their iniquities for generations to come and the law of CAUSE AND EFFECT will return and compensate justly and bring all things back into balance again.  But, not without much suffering.  THE ALL is ETERNAL and is unhurried in the realm of Space and Time.  Nothing is exempt from this Principle as THE ALL is no respecter of persons, religions, ethnics, government, or country.  All are subject to the effects of just compensation for their choice of Causes.  The keen observer will see this in the development of world events and in the phenomena of Nature as RHYTHM operates to return all things back to balance.
Reincarnation and Evolution is a controversial subject in Christianity but is accepted by most other religions because many are much older than Christianity.  Christianity is a very young religion that has borrowed from the older religions and has incorporated new concepts and ideas but rejects the idea of evolution and reincarnation because it is not aware that everything is governed by The immutable LAW OF SPIRIT operates independent of any belief system, idea, or concept invented by man.  The only law known to Christianity are the Ten Commandments which is a law of proper ethics and piety towards GOD in a law breaking and undisciplined human race.  The law of the land is modeled after the Ten Commandments.  THE LAW of SPIRIT is not written by any man, but its governing power is seen in the operation of the Universe and is the evidence of The GREAT CREATOR at work in the manifestation of all things.  THE LAW is immutable because any belief system, idea, or concept of man's invention cannot mute The GREAT LAW even when it is contradicted by beliefs, ideologies, religious concepts, personal declarations, scientific or otherwise.  If believes are that evolution and reincarnation are non-existent, those believes will cause the sub-conscious mind to edit out of their consciousness the process of evolution and reincarnation and they will dwell in their beliefs by default.  However, that does not mean that they are exempt from the process of evolution and reincarnation.  In their unawareness do they change by the process of evolution and may cause painful experiences when they are unable to accept the fact that there is a constant change in their lives that they can do nothing about.  They are unable to maintain their youthfulness and they do everything they can to keep their youth.  Still, their youth slips away and eventually they will give in to entropy as they go into a diminishing state of consciousness and they experience disembodiment or as the world knows it as --death.  The cyclic process of RHYTHM has been fulfilled and the departed person no longer occupies The Great Physical Plane.  They are NOT DEAD as the race consciousness would believe.  This is the reality of Life and death or disembodiment.  Is this the end?  
Well...., to know the answer, one must know the nature of THE ALL, and even though we are unable to comprehend the inner Nature of THE ALL or SPIRIT OF GOD with our tiny finite brains, there are certain things that THE ALL outwardly manifests by which we can see and understand the composition of Life and the Universe.  In other words, we can see and understand how SPIRIT governs and operates the constantly manifested Universe even though we are unable to comprehend its inner Nature as it will always remain unknowable to us by reason of its Infinite Stature.  As has been mentioned before, "THE ALL" is only KNOWN TO ITSELF.  We can only learn what is already KNOWN TO THE ALL.  It does not matter what we believe or not believe.  A Truth is always a Truth and is of its own accord and can only be lied to by a humans and is not benevolent to the perpetrator or the person who unwittingly accepts without question, and who lives and acts upon a lie.  This said, let's look and see what happens to a person who leaves their embodied or incarnated state and see if the "fear of death" is justified. 
(to be continued)


"Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause; everything happens according to Law; Chance is but a name for Law not recognized; there are many planes of causation, but nothing escapes the Law." 
-The Kybalion
"God does not play dice with the Universe." --Albert Einstein

The Principle of Cause and Effect manifests the Spleen Chakra in the human body. The Spleen Chakra is a person's responsibility for the causation of Mind and its choices. The Spleen is responsible for the dispersion and distribution of Vitality in the body. The Spleen Chakra furthers its manifestation of the Lyden or  Spleen that manufactures Macrophages to cleanse the blood, vital to the immune system and a person's health.  A person's conduct of Consciousness can affect the immune system of the body in a very large way.

CAUSE and EFFECT is a person's "Do unto others as you would have them do to you," or "Whatsoever a man sows, that will he also reap."   It is the Dharma/Karma of Human Causation.  It can work in reverse but with possible dire and desperate consequences (Karma).  When humans suffer, it not because of the punishment of GOD, but because they have initiated CAUSE AND EFFECT in their erring ways and are experiencing the consequences of those choices.  We are responsible in what we do, how we do it, and what we choose.  There is no escape from this immutable LAW.


The Principle of Cause and Effect is ever at work with chains of causations and effects that govern all of manifested life and matter. If a person was to follow each chain link of causation, it will be found that it has its beginning and ending (as Above, so below....) in the non material realm, the realm of Spirit. It affects, for example, the throwing of dice on a gambling table or a rock slide that is caused by rain and wind. Each can be followed and understood to the observing Mind which sees the cycles in all things, and realizes that all things follow the Great LAW. The LAW itself is illusive and cannot be proven other than observed with the Mind and is utilized to determine the causations and effects of a given event.
How else should an experiment be done on a LAW that is Mental in nature, unless a result can be produced within the effects of known physical laws? The Principle of Cause and Effect transcends all known physical laws.
When this law is used with conscious effort, desired results can be produced in a person's life by steering him or herself along definite paths of causation. When the law is used in an unconscious and haphazard mind, the effects could become potentially disastrous for the individual or group of individuals. So called "accidents" could occur without warning to individuals who toil through life without awareness. We are responsible for the very thoughts that we produce and the final result of our own mental alchemy.
Fear is one of the most dangerous mental causation that prevents a person from thinking and acting properly. The cause of fear is the result of a lack of knowledge about the unknown GOD which should be the most important educational journey in a persons life. 
The causation of fear and resulting superstition can only be removed through knowledge, wisdom, and understanding about the reality that we live, move, and have our being, in order to produce the desired effects in our lives. The greatest evil under the sun according to Hermes, is "Not knowing God."
In every minute thought of intention, action, and emotion that is performed, a person sets into motion unseen chains of Causations and Effects which will vibrate from the mental Plane throughout the entire cellular structure of body, out into the environment, and finally into the Cosmos. Eventually the vibratory energy returns to its originator upon the return swing of the pendulum. All this in less time than the twinkling of an eye. The effects of this principle can be observed in the current status and events of various political, social, financial, religious, and commercial upheavals. When observing the commercial stock exchanges in the world, the Rhythms can be observed in the rise and fall of stocks and bonds on the exchange board.  What is not understood, are the true forces back of and behind all these things that cause the rise and fall in everything which is ruled by the Principle of RHYTHM.  The seven principles of Universal Cosmic Law work synergistically and animates the Universe with LIFE.

VII. The Great Principle of Gender 

"Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on all planes." 
-The Kybalion

IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Root Chakra manifests the Sacral, or Reproductive organs of Male and Female in Humans and all lower species of Life forms.
The Principle of Gender manifests the Root Chakra in the human body, the Masculine and Feminine energy of Mail and Female in The Great Mental Plane and continues its manifestation of Creative energy of Conscious and Subconscious Mind in the Universe.  Subconscious Mind being Feminine, while Conscious Mind is the Masculine aspect of GENDER in The Great Mental Plane.  Subconscious Mind is unable to function without the direction of the Masculine Mind.  Subconscious Mind possesses the "power" over all things Spiritual and Material but cannot function without the "proper" direction and focus of the Masculine Mind.  Masculine Mind is only able to provide focus and direction but has no power to make things happen.  If the focusing of Masculine Mind is not utilized properly, all that remains is a Subconscious Mind that wanders like a rudderless ship on the high seas and we have many wandering humans with no focus or direction in Life who are prone to maliciousness in their cause and conduct of Life.   These types of people are easily swayed and deceived by the opinions and ambitions of others as they have no solid ground to stand upon.  An education in the awakening of their Spiritual awareness can change all this because it will give them a focus and direction in Life.  This is not an easy task because there is a gross amount of misinformation across the Earth regarding the existence and Nature of GOD for which the multitude has taken premature cognizance.  As long as this state of Mind continues in race Consciousness, there will be a continuance of war and suffering because of the lack of Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding.  The original understanding of the root cause of war and suffering has been lost.  It is buried deep within the Unconscious or Subconscious Mind of Human Nature and has, as though, it has become an autonomous function of perpetual hatred and maliciousness.
When Spiritual centers become awakened, they become "anchored" in Universal Knowledge and Wisdom and they will KNOW for themselves what needs to be accomplished.  Their focus becomes very keen and they will see through the deceptions of others and will not be swayed as they walk upon the solid Principles of Life.  A Mental marriage has taken place between Subconscious and Conscious Mind and they become powerful humans who will always be of service to others who seek Knowledge and Wisdom and helping them in their Spiritual Evolution.
As SPIRIT continuous the  manifestation of the "downward born elements" of the Human body and the lower Life forms in The Great Physical Plane, a Polarizing effect occurs in that Males become separate from Females as the rotation of each of their Chakras rotate in opposite directions from each other.  As an example, the Root Chakra of a male rotates in the opposite direction of that of a female and a separation occurs between the Human male and the Human female as well as in all species of lower Life forms.  Sexual reproduction cannot occur in the absence of one or the other, either mail or female, and is true of all Life forms.  In the Life forms of the Animal Plane, the lower three Chakras are the most developed in their species and is how Nature leads them to reproduce and replenish their species to counter the process of entropy.  Humans have the ability to be independent of all these things because of their higher position in the scale of Conscious Life and the greater Consciousness awareness they possess enabling them the freedom to make choices and decisions.  This ability makes Humans more responsible for their conduct toward each other and the companions of lower Life Form with whom hey share this planet.



This principle embodies the Truth that GENDER is manifested in everything--the Masculine and Feminine Principle is ever at work on all planes of causation. GENDER manifests on all three planes of causation; The Great Spiritual Plane, The Great Mental Plane, and The Great Physical Plane. The principle is always the same on all planes, but on the higher planes, it takes on higher forms of manifestation.
This principle works in the direction of generation, regeneration, and creation. All life forms contain the two elements of Gender, masculine and feminine. On the Great Physical Plane, the sexes of all species are manifested as male and female and the role they play in sexual reproduction.
On the Great Mental Plane, Gender manifests as masculine and feminine energies that exist within each and every person. Every male has its female element, and every female has its male element.  Every person, male as well as female, have their masculine and feminine energies, even the "macho" megalomaniac is no exception.
What about homosexuality?  As revolting as the idea of homosexuality is to the majority of heterosexuals, each is a biological reality and a fact of Life.  Homosexuality and heterosexuality is not a choice or a sexual  preference, but is a manifested makeup of the extremely complex and delicate human genome and chemical makeup of the human body that has its roots in the Law of Gender.   Homosexuality exists in the animals as well and is there for reasons not even known to science.  The question is not if human sexuality should be judged according to what occurs in the animal plane, but whether or not homosexuality is universal that exists on all planes of physical manifestation.  There are numerous shades of human Life and Being between the two aspects of male and female, some of which can be very dark.  It is a great error for heterosexuals to condemn and pass judgment on homosexuals and homosexuals cannot force their, what is believed to be,  "sexual preferences" (so called) upon heterosexuals.  Each is an aspect of the same reality that must co-exist with the other in Knowledge and Understanding, because, what is normal in the Universe?  Who has the authority to determine what is normal?  Certainly not organized religion even though some of their fanatical members have taken the position of sitting in the judgment seat of GOD in the condemnation of homosexuals.  A very dangerous position to be....  Only in the lack of Spiritual Knowledge and awareness does this become a religious issue.  They have chosen the "dark age" approach over scientific fact that can lead to great embarrassment when they have to concede to scientific facts in the near future.  
As an example....  During the sixteenth century the Catholic church announced by decree that our Solar System is the center of the Universe which they supported Ptolemy's complex hypothesis.  When Galileo contradicted the archbishop's decree that our solar system is not the center of the Universe, he was put under house arrest for his scientific findings and was confined to his living quarters for the rest of his life.  He was considered a heretic for violating Catholic doctrine.   It was not until 1981 when Pope John Paul II exonerated Galileo because the historical record was an embarrassment for the Catholic church.  Today is no different than it was then.   Ignorance continues to dominate our society that one day will become enlightened by scientific fact because science runs parallel to Universal Spirituality or as the scientists would call  "philosophy."  Religious belief systems will be forced to change and accept scientific fact, as the Truth about our reality unfolds. 
The discrimination of heterosexuals against homosexuals and visa versa is like the discrimination of a person of a certain skin color against that of a person of a another color.  All are biological facts in our physical reality and is a manifestation of the CREATOR.  For one to discriminate against the other, is a discrimination against the Great CREATOR in whom we all live, move, and have our being.  If a law is created based on discrimination, that law will cause a deep division in that society and is like a festering thorn that is deeply driven into the social fabric of that nation.  It will cause civil unrest because of the injustice against a biological fact that is ruled by COSMIC LAW.  The Principle of RHYTHM is a balancing LAW that will counter all injustice to restore the balance of justice through civil unrest, violence, war, and death and a final dissolution if not corrected.   Universal COSMIC LAW will always transcend the lower Law of the land and will delegate great power to a written law that operates in unison with COSMIC LAW.  The Knowledge and Understanding of the operations of COSMIC LAW is the key to enormous power that cannot be misused without dire consequences because COSMIC LAW indicates that THE ALL is the LAW itself and that nothing can escape its Universal Presence.  Is GOD INFINITE?  If not, then GOD cannot be GOD or else there must be a something that is above GOD.  If GOD is INFINITE, then it must follow that nothing can escape its Universal PRESENCE.
Unbeknownst to most, the truth about the bible is that much of its original truths have been lost in the many translations and interpretations in the lapse of time of which much has been invaded by religious imposters throughout two thousand years of history who have invoked and added or subtracted to the record their own beliefs in what they believe it should be.  The widely accepted King James version today was written by King James while in exile and published in 1611.  Shakespeare and King James were friends and have known each other in the fifteenth century and it is believed that much of the Book of Psalm was written by Shakespeare.  When Shakespeare asked King James if he can give himself credit for the Book of Psalm, he was forbidden by the King to do so.  Instead he encoded the Book of Psalm with his name by inconspicuously writing the sentence "....and they shake their spears...."  In addition, circa 300 AD the Catholic church made an attempt to maintain unity because of increased dissention in the church and much of the biblical record of that time was discarded whenever there was a disagreement between the church and the dissenters which later became the "Protestants."  The existence of "the devil" was a scare tactic that was utilized by the church in an attempt to maintain unity and integrity of the church.  Today's bibles are watered down versions which is widely accepted around the world as the "word of God" without question.  
Much of the writings of the bible was borrowed from the many eastern religions who have existed long before "Christianity" was even a word in the minds men.  Much of the eastern religions have borrowed from the Ancient Hermetic Philosophy which is the oldest known philosophy and was written by the ancient Hermes Trismegistus a contemporary with Abraham during a time long before Moses.  There is a strong indication that "Hermes" is synonymous with "Enoch" because the biblical record available to us today indicates that Enoch was found to be pleasant in the eyes of GOD and the SPIRIT took him.  "Took him" does not mean death, but is a something that is nobler than physical death.  It is a transcendence beyond the mortal boundaries of the Great Physical Plane, a passage from physical reality to a "quantum" like reality without the loss of consciousness or physical body.  The record of the Kybalion shows that Hermes was three hundred years old when he disappeared.  The biblical record of Enoch also indicates that he was three hundred years old when "God took him."  The name of Hermes Trismegistus was bestowed to Enoch by the ancient Egyptians because of the great knowledge he displayed about the Universe, the Human body, and the science of the Zodiac (astrology), and alchemy.  He is the "Father of Astrology."  The record showed that he was able to transform ordinary metals into solid Gold which has followers to this day in an attempt to duplicate the transforming of metals into Gold.  He was also known as a great physician in the healing arts.  Hermes Trismegistus means, "thrice greatest Hermes" or the "Great, Great, Great, Hermes."  Hermes is a perfect model of a human who walked in the land of the ancient philosophers with the daily awareness of the presence of GOD that gave him his great Knowledge.  Many ancient philosophers of that time sat at the feet of the Great Master Philosopher Hermes Trismegistus and were enlightened with the Knowledge of the "Embrosian waters of Immortality."   
Today's medical emblem of a snake or two snakes is attributed to Hermes as is the term "hermetically sealed."  Much of Hermes's writing has been lost in the lapse of the ages.  Only a few fragments of his knowledge has come to us out of a long forlorn and forgotten time.  A time so far back into the past of the ancient philosophers that the record of history has become muddled and unclear.  However, the unchanging GOD, or THE ALL has assured us that the ancient record will be restored to bring Knowledge and unity to a divided world that is suspended in space, and the constant change of time.

THE ALLEGORY OF THE ADAM AND EVE PRINCIPLE
We have been taught by the Christian religion that Adam and Eve are two humans, male and female, and that they dwelled in the Garden of Eden where they were naked before GOD.  According the book of Genesis they were not to eat from the tree of Good and Evil (the knowledge of the choices of good and evil) and that if they did, they will surely die. 
The Truth regarding this assumed and preconceived "belief" according to SPIRIT....  Adam and Eve were not two separate humans as we have been led to believe by organized religion, but is a manifestation of Human Nature by The Great Principle of GENDER in its aspect of masculine and feminine energy in the human consciousness --The Garden of Eden.  The Tree of Good and Evil is a manifestation of The Great Principle of Polarity which furthers its manifestation of the human nervous system through the Heart Chakra.  The Human brain being the central nervous system is the master organ that enables humans to "think" in the presence of their consciousness and perceive the Great Physical Plane as we are able to "observe" with our sensory perception.  The brain is  responsible for receiving and transmitting the subconscious responses from the Astral Body in the proper maintenance and function of all organs and the proper distribution of food in the body.  All living organisms are affected in a similar manner. Any interference with this process will result in disease as the organs starve because of the blocking of Astral Energy.  It can result in a quickening of the aging process, a quickly diminishing state of conscious awareness.  The Astral Body is a "layer" or "link" of Mind in the chain of manifestation and is responsible for compensating human error (sin) to keep the human body in a balanced state which at times is very difficult for the Astral body to accomplish.  If a human disembodies, because of one thing or another, the Astral Body will be out of business and the same fate will follow the Astral body as does the physical body.  This is the unpleasant sight of lifeless decaying Astral Bodies floating in the Astral Planes that Yogi Ramacharaka mentioned in his book, "The Life Beyond Death."
When "Adam," the masculine aspect, and "Eve," the feminine aspect of Human Nature, stood naked before GOD, they covered themselves with the leaves they found in the garden to cover their shame (self knowledge and discovery).  This allegory denotes the manifestation of the Human body that covered the masculine and feminine principle in its aspect of "innocence" of the human consciousness utilizing the "leaves" from the Tree of Good and Evil, that created the human form of which some became males while others became females with the ability of choosing between "good" and "evil."  The rest is all self evident and history in our daily news and educational literature. 
After the materialization of the human body, sexual reproduction ensued as the physical sexual energy (Tantra) of The Great Principle of Gender captured male and female in the desire for copulation and enabling the multiplication and preservation of the human form.  The Law of Attraction manifested in the male and female human form capturing them in its powerful Tantric energy.  All this is self evident to the conscious aware observer of Life.  Lower life forms or organisms are affected in a similar manner but do not have the range of imagination of humans because of their limited consciousness and are therefore led by Nature.  Some humans experience "sex" in an animalistic bestial state of mind while others experience a higher form of "sex" that is known as "Tantra."  Homosexuality can be either one of the two, same as heterosexuals.  THE ALL is no respecter of persons or their sexual feelings that follows the human genome, the blueprint of the evolving Human Mind that is manifested in the unique DNA codes known to science as the human genome.
The body is Consciousness in its physical form indicating the level of MENTALISM between the lowest form of mineral mind, vegetable mind, animal mind, and up to the rapidly evolving human mind.  Yet, there are Beings that are above and beyond the current evolution of the Human Mind.  Each occupies a proper position in the scale of Life as each expresses a unique level of "conscious awareness" with inherent conscious limitations of which the Human Mind is the highest level of the known scale of Life and the fastest evolving and growing consciousness of all life forms on  Earth.  All came from the "dust" --the Universal Substance of SPIRIT that gave birth to all physical forms.
When the human nervous system is viewed on its own, in the absence of the skeleton and flesh, it resembles a tree with limbs and roots capable of doing good or evil  --the tree of "good" and "evil."  Each of us stands on "Sacred Ground" when we come to the realization of this Great Central Fact.  Humans are capable of a great good that is an ethereal like mental substance while "evil" is a heavy mental substance that tends to pull and gravitate humans to the lower parts of human nature. 
Hopefully one day all this can all be connected to the conception of the human embryo and the attitude of its parents during sexual reproduction and the fate that follows in Life.  There is much more to come on this subject....  Also, as more information is received, the above written paragraphs will be expanded and explained with increasing clearness.
On the Great Spiritual Plane, GENDER manifests as the Father-Mother principle of the Infinite Omnipresent GOD in whose MIND the Universe is conceived and firmly held. It is written that, "We all live, move, and have our being within GOD."  The Adam and Eve mentioned in the book of Geneses, are not two physical beings, but are the Spiritual and Mental Gender in human nature.  A careful observation and study of the book of Genesis will firmly establish this Truth.
In the human body, the Principle of Gender manifests the lowest region of the human body which are the sex organs, while the MENTALISM is placed at the highest point of the body at the top of the head and where the thinking process of the Mind takes place.  The brain is the master organ that integrates all bodily functions and is subject to the causation of the Mind within a person.  Mind is not confined to the brain as is believed, but is the field of mental energy that extends beyond the human body.  It is within this field that we psychically "feel" the environment and the mental energy fields of other people in order to evaluate their intentions of truth or lies, honesty or dishonesty.  This field of psychic energy enables the penetration of the human Mind into the deepest secrets of Life and Being and renders the term "secrecy" as being only secret in the relative sense, but never in the absolute sense.  The utilization of  individual psychic energy will outperform by far, the expectations of the most brilliant scientific minds known to man in the uncovering of Life's deepest secrets.
Above that of Mind, as has been mentioned before, is the individual  Cosmic Consciousness that exists as a whirlpool, or eddy, within the Universal Cosmic Consciousness of THE ALL ("as above, so below,...").  This constant whirling about of Consciousness in SPIRIT gives every human consciousness a unique and distinct personality in physical Life to which we assign a birth name during physical birth.  The Conscious awareness of being, can only express the desire and will that gives the Sub Conscious Mind direction and purpose.  The Subconscious Mind will execute that will, and desire to bring into manifestation the wishes of the individual consciousness, be it Knowledge or ignorance, good or evil, love or hate, right or wrong, proper or improper, self advancement or destruction.  In this light, bears each human great responsibility in the choices of Life.  The Sub Conscious Mind can only execute the wills and desires of the Consciousness of a human including self destruction because it is Universal in causation, has no direction or will of its own, but has all the power to make anything happen.
In this aspect, does the Sub Conscious Mind sound the alarm and warns the person of the impending mistake of their own and, or, that of others.  An opportunity is presented by the Subconscious Mind to the individual Conscious Awareness to change the causation of its wills and desires in order to cause a change in the direction of Life and to avoid potential pitfalls, pain, and physical demise.  When the warning is ignored, the resulting manifestation in a person's life may be of one that is of an undesirable quality, up to and including the possible loss of the body as an ultimate worse case scenario.
Often does the Subconscious Mind not trust the Conscious aware Mind of an individual by reason of the placement of its concentration upon trifling external subjects and objects.  In this aspect does the Subconscious Mind become lazy and is content with the external impressions it receives and just wandering about with no cause or direction in LIFE.  Bad habits in people are created by this lazy Subconscious Mind that they express and the mistakes they make in all things.  Further evidence of this becomes apparent to the trained conscious aware and Spiritual developed individual in the trifling and shallow conversations encountered between people that have no lasting purpose or meaning in Life.   In other words, conversations that lead-- nowhere.  This event manifests itself to individuals who have taken a position of no action in Life, and who have not expressed a will, desire, or effort in the creation of a proper mental hologram, or mental mold, that would activate the Subconscious Mind into the creative process of Mental GENDER to bring a will, a desire, a dream, and an effort, into reality.  The problem is not in the power of the Mind, but in the lack of creating a will, a desire, of the Conscious Aware Mind in order to provide a road map for the Subconscious Mind to follow.  In this view, will the Subconscious Mind lazily wander about with no purpose or direction.   Most humans dwell in this mode of operation, having no will of their own, and can only act and react upon external efforts, wills, and impressions of other people who exert a will, desire, and effort,  stronger than their own.  In this lazy mode of mental operation,  the human mind becomes more susceptible to the deceptive practices of others and the misinformation they provide and in turn act upon the misinformation when they believe it to be a truth.  This is prevalent with young people who have not acquired sufficient "wisdom" because of a lazy subconscious mind and they display the "wandering mind syndrome" by falling into the pit of the drug cultures.  A society of adults with wandering minds are incapable of providing direction for our youth when they themselves operate in the "wandering" mode of sub-consciousness.  Humans cannot give to others the "Wisdom of Life" when they themselves do not possess it.  When a person can understand the Principles of Life, then do they possess the mental tools with which they can "direct" themselves in a proper direction and share the "knowledge" with others who will be able to build their own direction by building upon the Principles of LIFE.  They learn to use the Principles instead of being its vassals.  The following Hermetic Axiom displays this aspect in a concise expression....
THE ART OF SELF MASTERY
The masses of people are carried along, obedient to environment; the wills and desires of others stronger than themselves; heredity; suggestion; and other outward causes moving them about like pawns on the Chessboard of Life. But the Masters, rising to the plane above, dominate their moods, characters, qualities and powers, as well as the environment surrounding them, and become movers instead of pawns.   They help PLAY THE GAME OF LIFE, instead of being played and moved about by other wills and environment.  They USE the Principle instead of being its tools.  The Masters obey the Causation of the higher planes, but they help RULE on their own plane.The Kybalion
When the individual Conscious Aware Mind, through the effort of its wills and desires, directs and places the attention and concentration inwardly toward the Subconscious Mind, the two seemingly separate energies of Mental Gender become united and the creative process of the Principle of Gender become a reality.  Things that were previously thought as being non-existent or impossible at one time,  have now become a reality as the Subconscious Mind gathers information from the Infinite field of KNOWLEDGE.  Meditation is one method to accomplish this effort.  Eventually, a dedicated time for meditation is no longer necessary, unless a person so desires to meditate, because the Subconscious Mind creates new habits and ideas that make the gathering of information about the Unknown an effortless accomplishment. 
PRAYER, THE PROPER EFFORT OF THE WILL?
Which will produce powerful results?  Let's look at the difference between the two....  In organized religious Christianity we have been taught to believe in God and to pray on a daily basis, to be God's servant, and to give up our lives for Jesus.  To be dedicated to God at all times and go to church every Sunday.  It is true that there is power in prayer.  However, we have to look closely and carefully in what we choose and ask for.  
Examples of materialistic prayers that have been prayed:  "Please Lord I need that Mercedes," or "I need that beautiful house on top of the hill", or I need more money."  
Hypocritical and evil examples:  "Please punish that evil person who keeps bothering me,.... kill them."  "Hope that lightning will strike them down." "Show them who is right."  "The pope is the beast that the Bible speaks of."  If you will give me more money for God's cause, God will surely reward you for this."  "I know that you are suffering and hungry and you have no money, I will pray for you...."(?)
The above examples of prayer are for the most part superficial, mundane, and are a subject of idolatry worship that for the most part have no driving power behind them to become manifested in physical reality.  Why?  Because, the prayers above are mostly egocentric and have no benevolence for others.  If you pray, ask for "Proper Knowledge" so that you may have the Wisdom of the "Proper Mind" to make things happen.  Ask for, but always give thanks first, for example:  Address INFINITE MIND as, THE ALL, GOD, ALLAH, JEHOVAH, PYMANDER, etc., whatever name you prefer.  My own personal preference is THE ALL, PYMANDER, or FATHER because we all have been conceived in the INFINITE MIND of THE ALL.  I like THE ALL because it is the most ancient name and is older than the name GOD.  "THE ALL" most accurately describes the INFINITE NATURE of SPIRIT and its Omnipresence in the Universe.  We always marvel at the size of the Universe and its contents.... imagine the size of THE ALL in the context of the size of our planet or our bodies!  When you pray, give thanks for your presence in Conscious Life because its existence is volatile in the constantly evolving and changing Universe.  While, THE ALL is unchanging and is not subject to the evolving Universe and decay.  
"I thank you FATHER for my bodily presence in the Great Physical Plane while I observe with my eyes in humble and stupefied awe the works and operations of your INFINITE MIND in the containment, evolution, and constant motion of the Universe.  I, in humility and with piety bear witness of your Great Work in the constant manifestation of the downward borne elements of the Universe of which I am a part.... I Thank you. 
The above prayer is a prelude to your self-mastery in that you recognize the Infinite Greatness of GOD and you show your gratitude to be physically present which is a very great privilege to be able to bear witness of the work of The Creator in the Universe and our own planet.   In the lapse of time you will learn that you have attributes intrinsic to your own nature because you are a particle, a grain of sand of the shores of the INFINITE, a droplet of the SPIRIT ocean.  Humans who have suicidal tendencies are completely devoid of this awareness.  However, hat does not preclude them from the SPIRIT ocean.  
The person who has attained self-mastery, will use the effort of his or her own will to bring about results.  They do not use "pleading" to produce results.  They will instead use the phrase "I will it to be...."  Remember that the Subconscious Mind has no direction of its own but it has the power to produce results.  It is dependent on the effort of the will to get a proper direction.  Therefore must extreme caution be used  when utilizing the phrase, "I will it to be...."  Before you use this phrase, ask yourself if what you "will" to be is "good or bad?" Will humanity, friends, and relatives, colleagues benefit from this?  Why? Because everything that "you will to be" has to come thru you first before it manifests into reality.  If it is wrongly utilized and destructive, it can be potentially dangerous to yourself and could include disembodiment because the "evil cause"  must first come thru you and your consciousness.  If the cause is destructive, it will be destructive to your own conscious awareness because you are the originator and causation of that destructive force, "I will it to be." It has to come thru you first.  If you will to destroy another human, remember that you are made from the same substance that they are and it is obvious that you will be the first one to succumb to your own destructive forces before it arrives at the other person.  This power is not the same as utilizing weapons of mass destruction which are mundane compared to the forces of human nature and Nature itself.  Therefore is "Wisdom" in the utilization of the deliberate will of extreme importance.  Wisdom is obtained from KNOWLEDGE (not believes).  Now that you have read these things, you have the responsibility to use it properly.  Examples of proper and good utilization always include all humans regardless of nations, government, believes, ethnic background, skin color, etc.  Be as unconditional as you can be.  THE ALL is a the most perfect example of being unconditional in the creation and manifestation of the Universe in that SPIRIT does not withhold anything from the good or the bad, but that each is responsible for the results in the fulfillment of the Seven Principles of SPIRIT in their own lives.
Example for the workplace:  Today I will it to be a blessed day for all of us at work and that we will accomplish our job with great pleasure and efficiency.  I will for management to obtain the knowledge and wisdom to run their business properly and create an atmosphere of cooperation between themselves, their workers, and their customers.  "I will" for a pleasant day to manifest and summon the forces of my nature to bring about the results I asked for.  I thank you FATHER for this good cause that is inherent of your SPIRIT.  Thank you.  In this type of meditation or prayer every person is included without exception or exclusion.  It is an unconditional request devoid of the "me."  
Do this daily and without any attachments or expectations and release it into the Unknown and observe what happens.  I have used this myself and found that problems between employees and management for example completely vaporized.  Everybody always seem to be in a jolly mood and they laugh and joke thru the day.  Try it and see what happens.  Eventually even the cringe succumbs to the jolly attitude of the persons who surround him or her.  Imagine what will happen when people do this on a massive scale for peace.  These are "positive" prayers or states of meditation that bring the efforts of "will" and the Subconscious Mind together in unity to produce results.  The greater the Spiritual advancement of a person, the more powerful the results. 
The reason why this is possible and effective is because most people navigate thru the day in their unaware state of Mind and they are vulnerable to the wills and efforts of others particularly when there is an evil cause.  If the Mind is allowed to operate in this state, it will result in physical fatigue and mental exhaustion.  It will take the positive effort of only one knowledgeable person to make the difference in a group of people without any outward theatrical display of force and power because they operate in the powerful but invisible "Mental Plane."  The more people in a family, organization, city, or government contribute in this manner and in a positive way, the more powerful and effective the results because of the constant immutable works and operation of the Seven Principles in the INFINITE and absolute presence of SPIRIT.  
It is a very difficult task to utilize technological equalizers to bring about change in the invisible spider web of human Mind because of the very nature of MIND.
 When self-mastery is utilized that is devoid of the superficial ego and pretentious assumptions, problems can instantly vaporize and disappear because of the nature of "problems."  Problems evolve around fear, the superficial ego, egocentricity.  Back of and behind fear is always the aspect of ignorance.  Ignorance is the fundamental principle of fear.  Ignorance is the father of fear.

It can be said that a marriage has taken place that unites the Conscious Awareness of Mind which is masculine energy, and Subconscious Awareness being the feminine energy as set forth and ruled by the Great Principle of Gender.  The person who carefully reads the fifth chapter of Genesis in their bible, with open Mind and careful observation, will  discover that Adam and Eve are not two different people, but are a complete gender of masculine and feminine energy within the human Soul.  In other words, Adam and Eve are NOT physical beings.  The human Soul is a manifestation of the Great Principle of Gender that made the physical manifestation of human bodies possible as male or female on the Physical Plane, depending upon the choices.  This Knowledge eliminates paradoxical question of "Which came first, the chicken or the egg."  The male and female chicken are a manifestation of the Principle of GENDER through the evolutionary process of time.  It requires both to create an egg and duplicate their offspring, there is no other way.  The ancient Hermeticists have echoed this axiom from a long forgotten and forlorn past, "That which is begotten, is begotten by another."  "By another" would have to have its beginning in the creative process and manifestation of SPIRIT to perpetuate the sexual reproduction of their plentiful offspring.
The manifestation of animals are affected by the same Principle of Gender, only with lesser degrees of manifested consciousness and fewer developed Chakras.  Animal Life occupies the Plane of Life and Being below that of the human Consciousness with the Elemental Plane as a web of separation between the two planes.  Further down are lower life forms and if we follow the downward spiral of life and being, eventually we will be able to observe undifferentiated matter.  When we follow the Spiral  further downward, we will find that undifferentiated matter dissolves into an invisible field of energy, the realm of INFINITE SPIRIT.  Even when the Spiral is traveled in the opposite direction or upward, eventually we will find that matter again dissolves into the invisible field of energy of OMNIPRESENT SPIRIT.  As mentioned before, all this indicates that our physical world is not as physical or material as we think that it is.  This is difficult to understand for most people when their minds are conditioned only to observe the highly superficial reality they are accustomed to seeing in daily life.  When strange and unexplained phenomena suddenly enters into their lives for which there is no "logical" or "scientific" explanation, they become rattled and disoriented not being able to deal with it.  Often they will resort to their superstitious beliefs and ideas or complete denial by avoiding the subject for which there is no explanation.  They also have to deal with a society that is completely oblivious to the unseen reality that permeates our physical world, including our own bodies.
The realm of SPIRIT is an inescapable Truth and reality that nothing can escape.  Most people fail to recognize and visualize the enormity of its presence.  Science has postulated this evidence on numerous occasions, but not able to recognize it as such because the evidence lies within the human mind, not in the formulas of external analysis and observation.  Those who are Spiritually observant will take this scientific evidence for themselves and further the Knowledge and recognition; the Glory and Splendor of the formless CREATOR
If science does not maintain an open Mind to keep pace, they will be left in the dust of the rapidly advancing Ancient Wisdom of SPIRIT that is on the increase in people around the globe.  It must be remembered, that SPIRIT is no respecter of persons, and will rapidly advance the Minds of receptive individuals, regardless of education or ethnic background, who have made the effort to focus their attention upon Spiritual Advancement.  This phenomenon will become more apparent as time goes by. 
It is believed within the circles of people of the ancient Arcane Wisdom, that individual scientists will help humanity by revealing phenomena that will baffle the human Mind to the dismay of established doctrines and dogma of organized religion, helping humanity in the gain of greater freedoms because of the KNOWLEDGE of TRUTH.  The axiom, "You shall know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall make you free,"  still stands today, as it did two thousand years ago.  The deliberate act of concealment of TRUTH by any person or group of persons, religions, governments, agencies, institutions, or any entity, will assure for themselves the seal of dissolution in their destiny by reason of their own folly.  The Great Principle of CAUSE AND EFFECT is always at work by maintaining the equilibrium in all things.
Every human is in reality nameless and their perfect, accurate, and unique identity, exists only as a constant living and moving whirlpool of Cosmic Consciousness within this invisible field of Universal Intelligent Energy we refer to as THE ALL.  THE ALL is solely responsible for the manifestation and sustenance of LIFE in ALL living creatures, entities, galaxies, worlds, planes, and dimensions; none can escape its presence.  It is not necessary to assign a birth name to this unique individual Cosmic Consciousness of which there is no force anywhere in the Universe that can destroy its existence.  All Souls will be able to recognize and identify each other by their unique whirlpool of Cosmic Consciousness that is composed of LIFE and LIGHT.
The individual human Cosmic Consciousness expresses the attributes of THE ALL by the manifestation of the Seven Principles of Universal Cosmic Law through the seven Chakras giving each human body its unique individual appearance on the Earth Plane.  Therefore, should humans honor and respect the uniqueness of their own person, each other, all of manifested LIFE, and the surrounding environment of which each of us bear the responsibility for the prosperity and wellness of this civilization.  The proper execution of this responsibility determines the fate of human existence on the Earth Plane.  As always, it will begin with each individual's wills, efforts and desires, and the commitment and dedication for Spiritual advancement, NOT by pointing fingers at each other.  We can begin by understanding ourselves first, and educating ourselves regarding the realm we live, move, and have our being within and its Causations and manifestations of Life in order to be able to make decisions based on Truth and the solid and sound information it will provide us.  Anything other than this, will terminate in chaos, dissolution, and the resulting destruction that follows....  

This Arcane Truth is an inescapable reality that we live in and will ultimately proof of its own accord that everything emanates from a single source of causation.  It will unequivocally endure and pass all the tests of time leaving all assumptions, hypothesis, and theory, tossed asunder as broken reeds in the wind.  The Universe is now in the process of revealing its deepest secrets, leaving humanity in stupefied awe.  Unless change is recognized, many of the religions stand in danger of becoming dissolved and toppled as the masses of people will eventually gravitate toward the revealed Arcane Truths and Wisdom.  This knowledge will cause humanity to experience "true freedom" that is free from religious idol worshipping, misinformation, and superstition.  The straitjacket of religions that has bound humanity for so long will become dissolved in the lapse of time. 
The veil of secrecy will be torn apart and the obscure religious allegories, symbolism, parables, etc., regarding the Truth will be removed, leaving no room for any deceptive interpretations of any religious literature as in the past that has misled the world for so long. 
The ancient Hermetic axiom continues to echo from a long forgotten and forlorn past and rings true today as it did many millenniums ago; "Know Thyself well, and learn the things that are and all that is."
