Oh Heaven!

Parallel dimensions

"We're in a parallel dimension, lost in the spiritual, chained to the physical". These are only the lyrics to a dance tune that I stumbled across recently but behind these lyrics I can hear the spirit world crying out! I'll post a link to the tune as a comment to this article so you can get yourself into the swing of things, as they should be, rather than as they actually are, but before that I want to write a small piece in relating about the reality of our world. We are indeed living in a parallel dimension, one of many, and we will, each of us, actually exist in a great many of those great many parallel dimensions. Some may consider it to be very sinister in the belief that this is not "the real world" and there is little I can say in comfort to those people except to say that whilst this is not 'the first world' and the basis of creation, it is nonetheless real; just not as real perhaps as one would like it to be. It has been suggested in wisdom of old, I understand that it was Hermetic wisdom, that there is more than one history to the world, and in knowledge one will find that this is an undeniable truth. So is it true that there is more than one future, and further that such futures have already happened. Not an easy one to digest is it?! Time as we understand it is illusionary in its nature and whilst I don't wish to harp on we really do live in a universe that exists in a time scale 0 to 0. Every single parallel dimension in existence, including this one, has already existed from beginning to end. The multi-verse as it has been described is not, however, completely determined just because it has already happened, in fact it is the way it is because it has not been determined! We are, or should be in any decent society, free in the choices that we make, and by making ourselves more conscious of ourselves and our environment(s) we are able to change and recreate our world into something better, or as some would have it, something worse. The psychologist Carl Jung once, apparently half jokingly, alluded to the fact that time in the universe was like a picture book, and I am able to go one better than that. Time is actually like a video recording; untold amounts of static pictures strung together at very high speed giving the effect of motion in time. One of the differences with this video is that it contains different images when viewed in different ways. What I mean to say is that each different video within a video can be viewed when the 'brain' is locked into the appropriate frequency. Magic is a way of changing ones frequency. I'm not saying any of this for the hell of it. The reason it is important to have knowledge of these things is so that one can empower themselves and try to bring to a conclusion to some of the ills in the dimension in which we are conscious caused in part by interference from other dimensions on very similar frequencies, in the same way that we way are interfering with other frequencies with the tension in this dimension. It is by bringing ones angel (spirit) down to earth that we will find remedy in this type of predicament for it is ones spirit that is conscious of all dimensions in the nature of consciousness and ability that such a spirit has. In good spirits one will always know what to do for the greatest good!

Names...

What is in a name? Everything that has been looked upon and even those things which lie invisible beyond our vision have been given names. Whilst language is plentiful amongst people of the world it is reasonable to to say that there are less meanings in words than there are explicit definitions. By this I man to say that there are groups of words that have the same truth beyond there given dictionary definition. When one gives a name to a person, or object, if one is working with intelligence, then at such a time one is working through an "association of ideas", either consciously or unconsciously, the difference between the two in this instance being not very significant in the product of such a deliberation as choosing a name. I have already given a description of the mechanics of synchronicity and indicated that there is a process in synchronisation at work when one gives a name to something and then gives a similar/same name name to something else. In so doing we are proving a connection between the two (or more!) people/places/objects/events. As much as one knows the object/instance that has been named one builds a profile of that object/instance and such a profile may have a more conscious or subconscious basis. In knowing the object/instance and building such a profile a 'morphic field' is added too, such a field being accessible to any and all beings who stimulate such a field into action when either observing, thinking about, or speaking about the object/instance so named. I say the morphic field is "added too" because in fact such a field is pre-existing and literally acts in influencing and object/instance being named in such a manner that it has been in the first place. Although the link between objects/instances that have been named in the same/similar fashion may appear to be tenuous, there is a contagion of ideas linking the two (or more) objects/instances which may have either a positive or negative connotation, and if it isn't negative it is positive. Such a connotation affects ones thought processes and instincts and therefore has a bearing on material events. One is not hesitant to add that the link which may be established between two or more objects/instances may not be entirely evident in the explicit definition of the words, but that the link may be a more subtle truth. Even words linked to different objects/instances which are spelt differently but sound phonetically the same/similar are linked to some extent in the manner previously described. One must also decree that groupings of words in sentences and phrases may be thought to portray the same principles. One should note that where one sentence may relate to another in a comparison they cannot provide for two different meanings, especially when such meanings are in opposition to each other, an example being the phrase "I gave life to him". It would appear that there is a good meaning in this statement which under no circumstances should be corrupted for a perverse meaning such as, 'I set him up for life in prison' or perhaps 'I gave him a serious mental illness' viz. phychosis (the root meaning of the word psychosis means "to give life to"! One should also take into account the metaphysical proposition which is Gematria. It is true to say however that by making the links between the objects/instances conscious one is better able to manage/influence material effects/outcomes. In being intelligent about our words one should tempt fate only with good intentions for good outcomes, one should therefore consider wisely before giving birth to the life of a person/place/object/event with a name; such a name will be in the making of you, for better or worse. Whilst saying as much one should take care that one is not being influenced in their conduct through this knowledge by people that have misconducted themselves, those who have been perverse in deliberately 'marking' an object/instance with a 'bad' name for the purpose of engineering a 'bad' outcome.

Mythology

It is known that the root meaning of the Greek word 'myth' is, "things said and not done" and on that account it would appear that mythology can be discarded like heresay. But to do so would be in betrayal of life, mother nature and God. One may say in good spirits that the said meaning of the word myth is a myth itself! What we can say in all reasonableness is that the myths of Gods and their antithesis are an attempt by man to understand himself in his surroundings. Out of chaos becomes order which is symmetry to all intents and purposes. The patterns of order lay dormant in chaos waiting to come into material existence in time and space manifesting through intelligence. Such patterns are forged through life but withdraw from that something into a state of emptiness, like a hologram, waiting to manifest again into that something from which it originated. Chaos by definition is random anything can happen intelligence however is determined in nature and follows a routine so to speak. One should add that the result in intelligence is determined but not the particulars that lead to the result. Comparable to an archetype one may suggest that it is the 'world archetype', or "animus mundi" (world soul). Material existence 'falls into place' just as intelligence does. You may have heard the expression, when someone gets the gist of an argument they had hereto not understood, that they "just fell in" and this is indeed what does happen, nonetheless one can work their way into such an understanding, or indeed work their way into a situation in which they would like to find themselves. To give a simple simile one could point to an island (material existence) surrounded by a great sea of water (the spirit world) with a river running through the middle of the island from one side to the other (time). It can be discerned from the land what course the river will take such may be considered as an archetype, the animus mundi, and ultimately the water returns into its main body from whence it came. However can one really distinguish between the sea and the river when the river has always existed (flowing from one side of the island to the sea at the other side) at least as long as the sea! So you can see that time is not really what it appears to be and as I have said previously the world really exits in a time scale 0 to 0. Note also that it is the sea which makes the island what it is, an island, and it is the earth that gives rise to the island that gives a basis for the sea! Such is the nature of creation and life. In relation to Gods we can say that such are personifications (by analogy) of natural movements which are intelligent. In this book we have God who is a personification of intelligence in its most abundant, and paramount to such intelligence is what we would all find to be good. Then we have an embellishment of disorder verging on chaos, the devil, who is a personification (by analogy) of wickedness and deceit. As much disorder, wickedness and deceit as there is in the world the fact is that anyone can learn to manifest intelligence in their lives and create order out of chaos, whether or not one looks to another or indeed a God for their inspiration. If one makes the decision to be intelligent and therefore good (or falls into such a disposition) then one can safely say that such was "written in the stars" however if one embarks on a different path, one which leads to chaos, then one can hardly say that such was 'determined' because, as I have said before, chaos is random and literally anything can happen. However as I have also said previously, out of chaos becomes order so good things may never be that far away; when it appears that nothing is going right (right as opposed to wrong in the moral sense) you can reasonably aspire to, in general terms, and whilst using intelligence, the situation turning into its opposite. So I say Religion is not extinct and God isn't really a dinosaur. I recognise the concept of God for what it is and does (God being a leader of men on earth and spirits in the upper worlds, not creator of the world) I recognise the merits in all of the different religions through antiquity and I recognise the enlightend beings, like the Buddha (who if it weren't for his own advice would be worshipped as a God!) and all of the lesser Gods; those beings who have taken up the mantle of personifying natural processes whilst being intelligent. I recognise Set, Rangarie, Jaluga, deperno and the devil for what it means and in doing all of this I look to Mother Nature as being intrinsic in our power and resolute in her way, which is to give life a chance.

Consciousness

There is no such thing as 'dead' in a world (and worlds) just gradations of consciousness up to the hyper-sensitive. The whole universe is alive and conscious to some extent (viz. conciousness v. unconsciousness, note the syntax which confirms that unconsciousness is still a form of consciousness!) however organisms manifest greater consciousness than inert matter, or inorganic no-matter. Consciousness is inherent in the smallest and most obscure of subatomic particles and is made coherent with attention. A persons consciousness is focused in one moment in time held at a particular frequency but nonetheless exists outside of time and space at different frequencies and in different moments of the past, present and future. The basis of consciousness is local and non-local threads which co-exist in a plethora of different worlds - including the multi-verse. It is our 'position' (that is to say our ability and attitiude and their effect in the world) in time and space which bestows upon us our particular type of consciousness however one may find themselves in a variety of different 'positions' during the course of existence thus ones consciousness may adapt to the environment and hopefully evolve. Although the world is created by all beings in eternity, who may exist on different levels (some of us being more dominant than others, God and the devil for instance), ultimately, because the world exits in one moment (time scale 0 to 0), it is in mother natures blessing that one has ability (including ability to acquire such abiltiy!), the right attitude (including the ability to acquire the right attitude!) and knows in which direction to think for benefit of themselves and others, this being the basis for 'genius'. As a matter of fact it is in the gift of ones heart that one knows in which direction to think. Non-local locations which exist in the subconscious can be made conscious through recognition and direction of attention. The more attention can be focused in different directions at the same time the greater the consciousness the greater the ability to think in one direction only thus the greater the intellect ("directed thinking"). Leonardo de Vinci was right in his assertion that genius is like "blowing up a balloon" in a persons mind ("look up for inspiration!") - more energy (spirit) becomes available (is recognised) and therefore the mind has a greater capacity to think (and gather thoughts!), however as I have said suggested previously what one decides to think thereafter is where the real genius lies. Essentially, consciousness in man is spirit ones spirit is entirely contingent in its production by biological factors. Mans biological apparatus continually passes energy to another structure, the soul (and spirit where it differs), during the course of ones life in a similar fashion to the way in which electricity works in passing electrons from one atom to another anode to cathode. This is the nature of consciousness. In a similar fashion to electrolysis the anode (the body and brain) degrades to nothing at the reckoning of the cathode (soul and spirit). Without mans biological function man would not be able to produce a spirit capable of dominating the spirit of nature and the elements (such nature spirits have been called "elementals"). Incidentally elementals are said to be "creations of the created". How we learn to use our mind whilst we are in material manifestation is vital because the soul and spirit in man gets used to being manipulated in certain ways. One can point to neural pathways in the brain being 'worn in' by thought. Only with difficulty will a man improve his ability to think in the afterlife. Paradoxically souls and spirits in the afterlife are in the position of being able to gain instant knowledge about anything by just thinking in that direction. As before though, the real genius lies in knowing in which direction to think! (such is dependant on the 'position' in time and space that one finds themselves). Further to this it is possible and there are those who have been able to harness the power that ones spirit has in accessing knowledge whilst in material manifestation. Its not without its dangers though. Patterns which are matrices are inherently formed in consciousness, quite recently these have been described by scientists as 'morphic fields'. Sub atomic thus atomic thus molecular activity demonstrates a structure that, through morphic fields, go to make a form, with a function. Each form, whether animate or inanimate, has consciousness which evolves through interaction with its environment. Each adjustment in form (and function) due to evolution is reflected back into the morphic field and the object shares its consciousness most prominently with other objects that share the same/similar molecular structure and form and function. That is not to say that stones and humans, for instance, do not interact on the mind level. In fact they very much do interact as is clearly demonstrated in psychometry. One should clarify the psychic fact that as one thinks in a particular direction in the material world, a person or place, so he goes. Such is the basis in the fear, held throughout antiquity, of 'the evil eye', and the foundation in the sentiment loved ones have towards each other when they say "I've been thinking about you". Even more astounding is the assertion that I make which is that as a person thinks in a particular direction, so he becomes. The real lesson to learn in all of this is that the universe is very much alive and should be treated with the respect that it deserves. People seeking to prosper at the expense of each other and/or the universe should expect a rough ride in the knowledge that their thoughts and actions will be reciprocated right back at them.

The Middle Way

Whilst it has been alluded to previously in this site perhaps it is appropriate, given these difficult times, to project some Realpolitik into the beliefs of the people of the world. I'm not so inclined as to preach to people how they should live their lives and conduct themselves in their day to day business, except that much has already been said by people who should know better, and much harm has come in consequence to peoples faulty belief structures. I should make clear before going any further that the way of God is what makes the most sense for the people. Unfortunately a great many people are unaware of the way of God, the message of Jesus, or Buddha, Mohammed or Krishna, or are not so inclined to behave in such a manner, maybe because they view such moral codes as 'utopian ideals', or simply believe in something else. However it takes all sorts to make the world indeed there wouldn't be a world to live in, at least not one as we know it, if everyone was the same. So I'm going to proceed to outline ' the middle way' for the benefit of those whose psychology is faltering in the face of adversity; adversity derived from deluded, weak, sick, unscrupulous, bad or just outright wrong people seeking to make their estate in the world.

My message is substantiated in part by the work of biologists who have come to understand the nature of genetics and its influence on peoples behaviour, behaviour which has been (but will not always be!) notoriously selfish to its own interest. However one must also take into account the astral and spiritual influences that exist which biologists are loath to recognise. Astral and spiritual entities are as real as the day is long and until one can take full account of their psychology and realize their potential such entities are highly likely to continue pursuing their own agendas through people in the material world whether or not such is in the best interests of themselves or others.

So here we are:-

1. Be good to insiders and try to be good to outsiders.

Insiders are people that share your genes, but including your partner/husband/wife, etc, outsiders are people that do not share your genes. Whilst apparently being good, or trying to be good it is of no use fooling yourself and going through the motions, instead one should have regard for eight tenets of Buddhism and be sincere in your efforts, in particular one should exhibit right intention, right speech, right action, right effort and right mindfulness.

2. Do not be 'nice' to people in general. Instead of being nice be friendly.

Being nice is patronizing and counter-productive in many cases in the long run. Being nice basically means being insincere;

3. Do not like or dislike people until you have come to know a sufficient amount about them.

Liking people for no apparent reason, perhaps as part of a 'sunny' disposition, will serve in most instances to make trouble for yourself; "Give people an inch and they will take a mile"!;

4. In the main, do not give your love away for free.

Love, like hate, is a learned response based on experience and biology. Without trying to be cynical, to be in love means believing that another will act in your best interests (even if only in the long run!), but at the same time accepting that person for what they are, this whilst attaching the 'love vibration' to them. The love vibration is the basis of all love, but essentially it is in the process of its attachment that we have come to understand the concept which is love. A good nature (or a modicum of good values at the least!), confidence, trust and intelligence (albeit mostly emotional intelligence) are key concepts in the case of love. Sometimes, in the case of family for instance, it is worth giving love because it is very likely to be reciprocated at some point therefore it serves ones interests. Love in romance should be earned if this is not what's happening its most likely that love is not what's is going on but something else, fulfilment of desire for instance. I say this in respect of the phenomenon of 'soul mates' and freely admit that such can and does happen. 'Love at first sight' is a variation of 'soul mates';

5. Do not help morally weak people unless it is in your greater interests.

This may sound very harsh but in actual fact morally weak people aren't weak intentionally, of course they would like to impose them-selves (note: the self is essentially the spirit, which may be considered as the God in man) on their environment but, for one reason or another, find that they cannot. Morality in man is a manifestation of strength in ones character (one of nine main ones the other eight being hardness, happiness, loyalty, effectiveness, honour, goodness, humour and intelligence) and is a sure sign of the spirit. If one was to be kind to the weak on a carte blanch basis one may find oneself in the situation where the weak tried to impose themselves when they would normally have little influence. This will lead to roll reversal psychology in certain circumstances, which may be of concern to someone who was going about there business in the normal way. Weak people with power generally tend to be ugly in their adaption to the world so one is likely to be able to recognise when such people have advanced themselves. One must be careful not to classify certain people in difficult situations as being weak, when in actual fact they may be very strong;

6. Demonstrate a degree of hardness in your personality.

This is naturally in following the former edict. It is not in betrayal of your self (spirit) to display such a degree of hardness in your personality and in fact even Jesus Christ was not a "pushover" and was no doubt hard in some ways. Lest we not forget that Jesus was 'on a mission'; were he not it is unlikely that he would have permitted his own death through crucifixion;

7. In the main, forgive people for their sins against you.

This is a difficult one because there have been conflicting directions given by different 'masters' in the past, however it is unwise to let other peoples transgressions permanently prejudice oneself therefore one must learn to forgive. In some cases the sin against one is of such gravity that 'revenge' is right way to go about things, for it would be a burden on ones heart not to get revenge. Of course the law of the land should provide opportunities for such 'revenge' i.e. perhaps a long, uncomfortable, custodial sentence.

8. There are exceptions to this rule but, in general, mind your own business.

Sometimes its our business not to mind our own business! If it is your business not to mind your own business and you consider yourself to be a Luciferian be careful that your ideology does not turn into a Judas mentality;

9. Cut corners wherever possible so long as it does not serve against your greater interests.

Whilst this may seem to be controversial quite simply the world is what it is people are what they are nothing is perfect and there is no point making things more difficult for yourselves than they really need to be. If done in the right circumstances and the right way there will be no loss suffered but much benefit gained;

10. And finally one should try not to live outside of themselves.

By this I mean try not to act against your true self and your own best interests. Sometimes it is difficult for people to know how their own best interests are served, whether that be through lack of experience, lack of intelligence (which is gained through experience) and/or because 'the dumb are being led by the blind'! which does happen at various times for various reasons. "Be true to yourself and yourself will be true to you" is where we are all going no matter how long it takes and in essence this is exactly the message that Hinduism tries to convey, not forgetting the Hermetic axiom, "know ye not that ye are Gods!", lest we forget the advice of master Jesus when he proclaimed, "ye are Gods!". Unlike the masses however Jesus was able to resurrect himself from the dead whilst the mortal masses do not have such abilities (as yet!) to fall back on. So as I mentioned earlier Realpolitik is what's required for the time being. We should know in contemplation of the greatest good, and the life of Buddha, Jesus, Mohammed and the like, and ourselves, what we really want for, which amongst others is peace, love and happiness; in a word: Joy!

Synchronicity

Such a term has been slightly misunderstood since its first being conjectured. If we start with a meaning that does not betray itself we can move onto a description of the mechanics of synchronicity in so doing we will see that it is not so much "an acasual connecting principle" rather 'a principle of connection'. In the simplest terms synchronicity designates a correlation between a psychic event, that is a thought, feeling or intuition and a material event which provides for what one may call a coincidence, that is to say two (or more) events that come together in time and space with a common realization/meaning. Such a meaning is given through contact with the "animus mundi", or "world soul". Such a world soul incorporates the soul of everything that has ever lived and, to use seance as an example of sorts, when ones thoughts are on a particular person, it is that person about whom the animus mundi responds, or alternatively ones thoughts are in consequence to the animus mundi and the revelation is thus. One also has reference to the art of Zen when one proclaims that such synchronization, the harmony between instances and the engrossment in the self (spirit) reflected back into nature, is Zen. What one can also say at the outset is that synchronicity has no meaning whatsoever unless one is being intelligent; without intelligence there would be no recognition of exterior and interior events and no recognition of their place in a 'whole'; leading one to extrapolate the meaning in such a coincidence. Essentially intelligence is the basis of, and prelude to, synchronicity. When we describe the mechanics of synchronicity we go a long way to understanding the nature of reality, for dualism is seen to be a subtle misunderstanding and materialist monism a half-truth transcendental monism being the other half. Synchronicity is not really random, or acasual, but can be predicted; the more we know about the material world the more this knowledge can be described in terms of psychic projections the more sense impressions, feelings, and intuitions can be understood in terms of material influences (from the past, present and future). Even abstract thinking is not entirely abstract but rather contingent on sense impressions (real to start with and then imagined). Synchronicity becomes apparent when man begins to formulate speech from the primordial soup which is consciousness. The impulse to name a material object as one does, and then, whilst being intelligent, to name something else in a similar fashion exemplifies the essence of synchronicity. The impulse to think about two (or more) events/objects in a similar manner demonstrates the psychic fact, which is that there is a correspondence between the two objects/events in meaning. To say that synchronicity becomes apparent when man begins to speak is to say that it is more markedly so; in actual fact synchronicity exists in some form wherever there is intelligence at work which, at its most fundamental level, means so long as there is life: at its most clinical one may say that intelligence and manifest reality are in complete synchronisation. It is direction that facilitates the establishment of a truth in synchronicity in saying as much one might as well go the whole hog and suggest that it is merely a matter of direction, both learned and inherited, conscious and unconscious, that provides for 'accumulation' during life and in the afterlife. A perceived material symbol (a symbol represents a hidden truth) may give rise to a noticeable psychic event, a thought for example. Such a thought however is prone to be part of a process of thoughts which may lead to the psychic fact, the truth, such being in synchronicity with the material truth (represented in a symbol). We would say that such a thought process works in "association of ideas" and that the first thought is symbolic of the ultimate psychic truth to be worked out. In intuition however one may be able to grasp both the obscure location in the material symbol and the corresponding psychic truth relating to it, at the first attempt, without any protracted deliberation and no need to go through the process of association of ideas. This would be intuition par excellence and in actual fact it is how ones spirit functions in full purity. One must also add that a psychic event, a thought for instance, may also give rise to a corresponding material event given in the form of a symbol, which can be worked out or intuited in its meaning. Further one must say that synchronicity does not only occur in the relation of psychic and material events. Synychronicity can occur in the relation of one psychic event to another, an example being the meaning of one sentence considered against the sentence in following possibly demonstrating a psychic and/or material truth (which may be given in the form of a symbol) . Likewise two material events in following each other demonstrate a material and/or psychic truth such being that nature is in the mechanics of cause and effect. A living organism behaves in such a manner that a correlation can be drawn (is more obvious), at various times, between interior states and manifest reality. So we can say that synchronicity may have a supposedly random and unconscious basis but with intelligence in conciousness we come to realize that the part really is part of the whole, that the truth in a psychic event is evident in nature in some form and that synchronicity is, will or can be realized in some extent.
