Suicide- 27th March 1994

THERE becomes a queasy faintness rushing over a man who is caught all of a sudden by a remembrance formerly disbarred from the consciousness; and as it comes all at once, he is then perhaps committed to acknowledge this or that past association which quite innocently comes to him. Whether he proceeds to befriend the pressing memory is a deliberate decision we all are brought to continually.


Reconciling changes within our continuity can cause havoc amongst those who do not perceive a far-reaching future – those to whom the present sleeve becomes all or nothing, and eternity is incomprehensible.


One can say about those who have chosen deliberately and cruelly to end their own life, that these folk are seized with but a temporary madness, overcome with a hatefulness which becomes inflicted upon their very selves because the will of the man is not being seen to be fulfilled at that particular time, in a particular way which does suit him. 


For the insult of suicide is wicked and unprofitable. The man suffers the consequences, as so does the world, as so does every being of light upon the planet who works only for the glory of the life of Man, and cannot bear its demise without feeling too the pain of their failure.


Self-murder is a betrayal of soul. Were that one person can read this stern text and be persuaded that there shall be every horror known to he who willfully executes his life's forfeit before time. It is the law that the time of departure is not to be of our choosing, and it is the law that our selves are as a treasured keepsake to God and are to be valued as such and protected from the will to destroy such creation. For nowhere within the scheme of larger Creation is there a provision that it should be permitted to turn back upon itself and decide in part or whole to simply cease to be. It would be entirely contrary to that law of Creation. It cannot be both. 


However, Man has such a flaw. This was the very worst spin-off from the experiment of his own freewill. There is glory if he decides on the side of Life, but there is tragedy insurmountable if he errs towards relinquishing that life. Apart from the ungratefulness and quite apart from the associated malevolence, the individual who desists from this planet shall rue his impatience, for the very reason that he has accomplished nothing to receive greater peace, no reward for his impulsiveness. And because of his self-chaos and injury to the law, it becomes extremely difficult for beings to approach him and be of assistance to encourage the lighter aspects once again.


Returning to the original explanation: it does happen quite frequently, particularly in this age of materialism, that individuals cannot readily shift perspective sufficiently to enable them to envisage a future. Without the ability to imagine thus, many consequences result and many do not. For example: if I am unable to realize change before it occurs, I am unable to prepare for it also. If I am unable to consider change in those conditions within or without, then I am not given to enjoy optimism which could otherwise carry me through the present and into happier times. If I am unable to perceive change and a future, then I might well believe that all that is pathetic and unworthy of myself shall always be; and this becomes an intolerable thought.


To some the actual reasoning (if it could be called that) afore the suicide, does make of a difference; and yet it can be added that the sorry results are all the same. We speak from the experience that daily witnesses the wraith-like wretches fixed to the Earth, with no freedom to move on until the term of what would have been their natural life is thus completed. Their days have time - unlike for those who may move on, these individuals are compelled to be wakeful (there is no slumber) for the entire day or night, and may not be released any further prematurely.


After the initial outburst has subsided - let us explain: the manner in which one dies holds extreme significance to how one is directly afterwards; also too the overall make-over of a man, his disposition, his charity, his qualities of love, his expressions, his strengths on the day of his death, shall go on and be continued and be profitable to him in the spiritual worlds, and in his immediate manner of receiving them. Now in the case of self-murder, the man has in his last moments, forged only unhappiness, he is enmeshed in sorrow and hatred, he despairs because he has begun to be persuaded by the demons which would happily push him over the edge into the abyss and laugh as he falls. As his clouds of denial thicken (soul-denial) his consciousness becomes stupid and lazy, intoxicated by the very choice before him (which ordinarily would not be a choice at all) and in insolence to the extreme, his dark thoughts finally come to the conclusion of annihilation. 


What he does not recognize is that annihilation is not so easily managed - oh frail man, who acts ungraciously and without care! If anything, he has bought the very opposite. How often these souls mutter "I only want peace, I only want peace" that there are pockets within them and within the world at large that are so disdainful to their soul-sensibilities that they are impatient to remedy the upset. They would cut out their own heart to punish it for not loving enough, they would fain to live loathsome and correct it in time. They cannot forgive others, they cannot forgive themselves. So in their passing, all of their upset travels with them and is there to be contended with ever after. Heaven would gladly help, but cannot be held to ransom. If these comments appear stern, it is because they have to be, saying only of the truth and with warning as to what shall befall any others who believe that there might be reward gained for so unworthy a crime. 



As for the souls who are now committed to live mid-worlds, one may pray for their wellbeing and try to envisage on their behalf, all of those attributes and occurrences that they themselves could not find. Many need counseling, for they still cannot find a 'future'. They do not realize, frequently, that they have passed over, and in their confusion are impelled to play out the act of death over and over again. Of course, it simply doesn't work. 


It is slow indeed, trying to reach these souls who are almost comfortless for the time of their intern. Much of the supplication that is needed is given many years later, at that date of what would have been their natural passing. (The first date, it should be added, for everyone does come to certain conjunctures where death presents and there is a choice then and there as to whether or not they wish to remain.)


It is rare and unusual for the same mistake to be repeated twice with this one. The consequences which are carried over into following lives can vary of course, however the actual urge to act in this manner is answered by the unpleasant experience so known. 

Having said that, there was a particular period where human sacrifices (particularly amongst the young) were prevalent and many stepped the threshold in this manner, into the arms of the awaiting demons who had commanded that the vitalities be given over. Those souls who were caught up in these periods and surrendered themselves thus were actually inclined to suicide in following lifetimes. The reason itself was simple, and although valid, quite worthless: of the many sacrifices played out (and we shall not go into by what method) there was, for those individuals, a great summoning of courage just preceding the death. This is in contrast to the actual suicide, who has lost all courage and is quite defeated. 


Now as specified before, the condition of the man just prior to death makes for very strong impressions which are translated and carried over and remaining; so too the aspect which leads up to the final moments. Such aspect is borne strongly in individuals and often presents during subsequent lifetimes; particularly if there is something there to prompt the recall. For example: there may be an unfounded but unspeakable urge to throw oneself into the volcano's mouth, and this is not uncommon amongst those who have vividly lived out the final moments falling from a height into death. 


Further from this is also- in the case of the sacrifice, the question of nobility, of worthiness, of courage etc. - one may picture that the parcel of whirling impressions combine within the man and with the future association; and so, misplaced as it is, he may well set about to repeat the 'ennobled' act, being so strongly impelled at those times of weakness, which strangle his perspective on the future.


To these particular fellows this actual knowledge can be of assistance, for if it rings true for them that there was such an occurrence in a former lifetime (and there is a very large possibility of this being so), then the observation can be enough to lessen it into distraction.


In the case of the terminally-ill (which is not a term we like at all - one is either alive or they are not, all are terminal in the worldly sense) it is exactly the same law as explained above. Perhaps one may consider that the days ahead shall be few, that they who have departed afore time shall remain earthbound - fewer than say, the suicide of good health. It can be noted too that the manner in which they depart, once again is of great importance, and extremely different to the exasperation of life, being an exasperation and quarrel with pain instead.


The question as to why there are areas in which the suicide-demon is more prevalent than others relates to numerous factors. Apart from the materialism and the outfall from such as mentioned above, there is also the consideration of intoxicating drugs and their effect upon the interaction of the soul and his lower consciousness.



There is a general misconception which suggests that mind altering toxins - for it has to be a poison in order to cause the disincarnating in part within a man, severing his usual ties and bonds and permeations - that such drugs or practices actually induce a more 'spiritual' awareness, having loosened the man from his earthly consciousness. This is not so however. The grades of consciousness respond spiritually to those influxes which are by nature, enlightening, invigorating, revealing, inspiring, and so forth. In other words, one is spiritually keener only by truly spiritual means.


Poisons, on the other hand, are not this. They are potent within the astral realm and relate to astrality rather than spirituality. Poisons or poisonous practices which invoke astral (lower astral) perceptions, desires, behavior, etc. actually demoralize the man within the man and demote his consciousness below his God-given awareness. If it were true that a pill or a potion could actually raise a man higher, then it would become unnecessary for one to even contemplate self-development and all the associated efforts. Picture-windows into other planes of being can be achieved in the very short-term by some means, however the result remains the same: the individual is severed from his earthly connections and his ability to remain intact becomes weakened.


The very young are more susceptible to this disease of false spirituality. They are so very full of expiring vitalities which may consume them readily if uncontrolled. What may be done, that we may try wholeheartedly to prevent yet another from that great act of anguish? There are two needs each being has: one is to be loved firstly and the other is to be enlightened to the truth that he may find the beauty and the worth that awaits his finding - to be set upon the path of a true spirituality, which is what he really yearns for. For the suicide is dissatisfied with what the material world has to offer and that is precisely why he chooses to relinquish it; however, as we maintain, he forgoes too much mistakenly.


In our efforts (our meaning us, all of us making effort) to work inwardly (in prayer and meditation), to work outwardly (in concerted teaching, in mindful observation, through great interaction, and last but not least with Love) we strive to effect changes that will uplift all men and remedy not only their inclinations for self-harm (which is what it is), but shall bring to them the confidence so desperately needed which firmly rejoices the wondrous and true realities in which we are cradled.


Bless all men and know on behalf of them, that we are all promised a continuity; which, by the way, indicates that it is not all change throughout eternity, but that one carries on from that past point always. We continue on. . . and so the work must begin now and it must begin with an optimism that is reasonable and specifies exactly all the good things it requests. We can do this for all men, we can do their wishing for them in the right way, and quietly know that they will come to fulfillment in the duration of their being. 


Bless the suicide who has been so corrupted by the one last false hope which has ever yet scorned him. Do not be afraid to admonish his act, for one cares for the man entirely and for this reason alone would not have had him suicide.


For those who are held midway, we may entitle them to such discourse as will be needed for them in order that they may begin to respect their life once again and realize where they are. For it is truly difficult for them to realize that they have achieved their death, whilst they are still conscious and suffering upset also. Once they have awakened to the mistake, they are doubly shocked and tortured yet again, only differently. This shock and despair at having chosen so wrongly is remedial to them ever after; and although painful is quite necessary. Without such suffering the soul itself may well become inclined to cessation, and then the true horror-story begins! 


Yes there is a slow form of soul-suicide, in which the man has regressed each subsequent lifetime, until that point where there is little to no receptivity for heavenly commiserations. So once again, we suggest that there can be no greater work that a man can instigate in order to help cease this suffering, than that of the promulgation of the true path - of the Heart - for all of Mankind.
AMEN

Fluids, Vapors, Fire & Salt- 25th March 1994

THERE needs be a conjunct, a mutuality, a shared area, whereupon one plane of being shoulders another. We shall not use the terms 'higher' or 'lower' as the relationship between worlds of Being are actually in truth not relatively marked as such, but being what they are, both enhanced and incorporated one unto another. This 'area' of mutual meeting occurs in shared aspects which follow through, carry over, according to their specific nature. In this we may look to the natural home in which a spiritual property may belong, and understand its significance in keeping with its characteristics both here and hereafter.

The soul-life described as occurring in the fluidic bodies of Man (and also in permeations throughout) has ventured forth into a crystalline world which has harvested itself in turn upon the etheric enterprise. The soul-system which comes to interpret the world and also give itself into the world, is complex and elaborate, having many variations as to the expression and to the synthesis, as combined and carried in any particular fluid or 'mist'.


There is a power to fluidity which is actually winningly persuasive. Form cannot resist its proposal. The astral 'nerves' for example, as carried in living fluids, stimulate the form of the man to become animate, without which, in nature and inclination, he should not go forward or back - he could not make conquest of an otherwise paralysis. 


The secret to the elixir of life was indeed this knowledge of the true life contained; that a body of fluid holds the magical properties of Life itself and lesser life individualized and distinct, within the incorruptible vessel of purity: the etheric substance in becoming physical (water itself). This was the answer as to eternal continuity and the mystery of physicality and its relationship to the Divine; that the principle and manifestation of Fluidity does suckle the obstinate World- obstinate and partially withstanding. (At present that is, for not always was this so. Originally the entire Globe was governed by the fluidic principle, as it was at that time unamassed to the mineral cleavage; and as a baby come straight from Heaven, strongly 'soulful', therefore fluidic in total.)

Upon death, when the warmth has expired from a man, the body becomes rigid as the soul-forces depart; and the rigor mortis condition is a true example of that result. Man without his fluidic soul-system should be as Pinocchio: wooden and unfeeling. 


One point raised was concerning the individual essences of men and their vapors as being experienced mutually. Out from the many hundreds of combinations and synthesis of fluids and their expression of the man, there is also a base residual which is lent out into the outer world which may well be experienced by another via the many natural excretions - saliva, perspiration, urination, semenal, nasal, tearful (and the nature of these vary day to day also) - and there are those as borne out in the exertion of certain vitalities of which a man may loosen his fully steeped connection with his body and exude himself in certain projections. 


So by these most personalized emanatory vapors, one individual may give over a soul-impression or impart an emotional expression in this way. This is not however, the full explanation to one's sense of presence or sympathetic bonding with another- although the receptivity to any others characteristics as borne as their fragrance of being, so to speak, does become relevant to individuals who are magnetically responsive.

Our Spirit was as the ethers of Space, that space in which the Life could be contained; and soon the dark waters collected within that space (soul) throughout which the Light of consciousness illumined; and then remarkably, came Form. This was lent to us by the Architects of Being, who in consultation with He who brought the silver-glass in which to view ourselves (our ego), we became defined and upright and did contrast the realities without, by this our presence.

The streams of entities which circulate the cosmic spheres are transported along arterial thoroughfares which are accommodating because of their fluidity. But what of the actual substance of this? To whom and to what, do these feelings of soul belong to? Each planet, which multitudes of individuals frequent, emanate on their own, these arterial pathways. They may 'feel' by their rays so extended- along which the aspirants are carried.

Equally so and in this way, there is a fluidic aspect to the sunlight, which by the way, invokes all kinds of vapors also in which the Sun itself may experience and interact soulfully with those who mingle with its light. Its soul expression and 'feeling' may disperse and intermix with all of those exposed to its shafts of radiance. By the bye, sunlight bears no relation to fire whatsoever, they are not even cousins- sunlight may evoke fire into being, yes, but it is not of the same or similar kindred.


Fire is a property, a cosmic property, which is not individually ensouled or enspirited. It is as the element itself and its origins go back so far that it is virtually untraceable. Fire is a midway material which has not fully entered into the physical world by its manifestation. Etheric warmth is distinctly different to the living principle which is fire. The etheric warmth as part of the being which is the Sun, enlivens and quickens the action of changeable life.

Fire comes and goes without self discrimination. It knows only of what it is and is continually contained by the presence of the vapors as humidity. Fire would, if it could, rampage the entire area. Its principle works within Man in several different areas, however its stimulation frees the fluids into release and thus discharges within the man. (Astrally - digestion, desire, aggression, courage, motivation, impulse, combustion with ideas etc.)

Spontaneous combustion occurs when the fluidic system may no longer resist the presence of the fiery principle; usually because the actual soul is no longer connected to the man. For one reason or another he has alienated himself from his soul-ego and ceased at one point to continue the connection. The resulting residue of ash is all that is remaining. Quite a crude warning to those who would forfeit their soul-life! 


The charcoal deposit left behind would be saltless too. The relationship between salt and the fluidic disposition is a fascinating one. For it is that the fluids are drawn unto salt and the salt does love them, completely. The salt is the intermediary between the fluidic natures and the mineral natures. It is because of the nature of salt that the two may not only cooperate, but be attached and interspersed into one another.


This is why there becomes often, the practice of a little salt being added to the holy waters of Communion. Firstly, there is the water received as dignified by the action of the ceremony's invocations alone; then secondly, the water is received with a little salt having been added to it by the celebrant and by this the action within the man is transformed physically.

Of course the salts within the man do meet with the water ordinarily also. However the blending of the two in this deliberate way, impacts quite dramatically and the potency received is doublefold.

The Physical Body’s Gateways- 12th 13th 14th March 1994

On the questions of departure from the physical body:
The consciousness of a man permeates his body in entirety, every atom and every recess is fused with the individual's consciousness. Whilst he may only be self-conscious in a manner 'looking out' he is nonetheless soulfully aware of the host which incorporates the body/bodies - his communities of being. Not only is he aware on this soul-level, he is also responsible as the governor of these acquired surveys. For he, the manly individual, has called them to his being; and not only is he beholden to the multifarious beings which uphold and support him, that are directly connected, but also too, to those which comprise the very Globe that contains and sustains him; and likewise the very heavens that cradle the Globe...

We may move freely around those regions most directly associated within us. This means to say that because of our inseparable intimacy we share with our physical body - for example - we may 'go to' any specific point and affect it at will; we may draw from its forces, we may call it into being or to nothing.


Every center within the physical frame is connected to a corresponding and higher center which in turn leads to the apex of that soul which sits above the body as a whole as though it were a king upon a throne. The central point to the poles of a man is the heart; all other gateways are locked for the term of physical existence as they are secured for the purpose of containment.

To loosen a center would encourage a greater influx. The resisting capabilities are the key to balancing life against Life; and the influences which work within a Man are all toxic in larger measure - that is to say, all except those of the heart. The heart-meridian is a heavenly conjunction, one where the open gateway within the man extends out and beyond, through to soul, through to God. All other points of expansion necessitate antechambers, as it were, intermediary spaces which connect and conceal one radius of activity from another.

It is to be remembered also, that each and every purpose our bodily organs do serve will alter during the course of ensuing development, so that their capabilities in relation to the body as a whole, and their function as living banks of cosmic virtue shall alter progressively. Therefore it becomes no indictment to maintain at present, that the various organs are to be assessed on individual merit, having also differing histories/time periods of preceding development.


The heart, on the other hand, comes before all others. As the individual enters into the world it is the heart around which the body does conspire. Originally, when the human form was spherical (and not of physical matter as we know it) the whole sphere-exterior was what is now our heart. It was at that time the exterior-most feature to our 'body'; and that spherical notation is still there, save the physical body has now incorporated itself outside of that sphere, attaching the trunk, limb system and 'central intelligence center'.

The complexities which go about to form the current statement of Man are too vast to set upon paper, and finish. . . ever. What is not to be forgotten, however, is that above all the marvels and mysteries of his physical incarnating, are those profound and extraordinary reflections of the Cosmos that do express in this and that way - living a life right down to the bones! Once again, this is afforded only because of the heart within the man, that he can do this.


Set quite apart from the obvious (or not so obvious) capabilities of the primary functions there are reservoirs of great and wonderful deposit. Every fluid is a living, attending, blessing, through which the feelings of a Man (higher and lower) are so carried. His higher and lower emotions, his 'way' and his draft; his sensing and his pleasurable or painful reflecting; that which accompanies his willing; that which colors his motivations; that which fires his desire; and that which is satisfied in desire's fruition; that which is signatory to him (and to Christ); that which brings not only the healing, renewal and purification but also the 'feeling'-knowledge of such: his fluidic bodies are the physical fields of his soul-bodies.

The organs (all of the organs with the exception of the heart) are as outposts, they are separated and separate to the entity Man, insofar as they are not him, but do interconnect and 'work over' in influence and assistance- the fluidic bodies saturating them and their stations.

The term 'spirit vapors' is quite apt. We condense, we evaporate, we discharge or distil, and eventually all of the fluidic bodies can reform within the spiritual worlds irrespective of the physical body, and separate to the actual organs also. This is not to say that the organs concerned have not by their existence and functions imparted great gifts contributing to the very beingness, however they are as 'checkpoints', cosmic checkpoints, to the traveling man within.

Now it becomes quite possible for investigations to be made in and through any area. All matter contains 'doors' to such examination, where one may go to the astral realm of its beginning - by this it is meant that everything carries with it the impressions of origin (original formation) and one may 'see' the realm, the astral realm, as it was at that time of beginning. One could visit the forest from which the sapling sprung, of which the leg of the chair you sit upon came. One may frequent the imagination of the artist who contrived the design on the canvas before you. One may visit the realms so described in a travelogue: each and every port, as it was at the time of the author's account.

Similarly too, there are 'doors' to the actual source also - not only the origins, but the originators. One could come to the forest by way of the wood, and know also the guardian spirits of that glade or grove, nigh the forest sprang into being. One may make contact with the artist and his affinity, and come to know of his condition: if it be currently poor or fair, if he has departed from the man he was; and by the admiration and joy in his work he shall be uplifted. The author of the travelogue is also accessible by way of his work; to be reached anywhere he has now traveled to. So the conditions of the past, the present and the immediate present lie concealed in all matter.

It is also true that the very material-flesh of the body of man is incised with impressions of his own making; and also of those around him. The physical 'tensions' complained of (not the healthy tensions of being) are the rippling impressions as are unwanted by the individual. Once again, sunlight and water make for good remedies in this. (Particularly if one is suffering the more negative emanations as discharged and fired from another.) Conversely, many a happy memory is locked within the cell and enjoyed for the year until exhumed and deposited further out into the auric memory.

Question: It has been asked if the "best gateways to the twelve aspects of Heaven are through our zodiacal centers?"


The Body Astrea is independent to the physical vital organs inasmuch as it negotiates their being. It is the corresponding plan to which they are fixed, but it is not of them, nor they of it. So it can be discriminated that one operates passage into stellar fields via their Body Astrea; but not in line with the physical stations as such.

The epi-layers are traveled in, up and out at every level, one does advance eventually by expansion out and into where the consciousness directs. We cast our attention as one throws the pebble afar, and the subtle body expands, while the soul's perimeters of experience are widened.



See now the sap,
As the soul of the tree,
Here in the amber,
Its life's testimony.


Look to the flower,
And therein the bee -
So becomes soul,
In the sap of the honey.


Where water divines,
Its soul-life feels and knows.
It knoweth I,
It reflects all the World,
It knoweth itself,
By its likeness to the Truth,
And by eternal sacrifice.


Because of its chaste purity,
Sacred water is faithful to God,
In its transparency.


Awaken the sleeping
Metal to be,
In rivers melting molten,
Of fluidic levity -
Before setting fast
And captured there to form,
Or released into the World,
Swift, is cured, its soul.


Here is the Man -
Skimming the courses,
Within the extremities,
Exploring the passages,
Of this life's infirmity.


Floating, amassing,
Within his own humidity,
With currents contained
By persuasive membrane
In circuit,
Until given into expression.



And, where he divines,
His soul-life feels and knows,
His soul-life knoweth I,
His soul-life reflects all the World;
And he does know himself
By his likeness to the Truth.

The Question of the Earth's Interior- 12th March 1994

THE tension of surface rock, ore and sand which sits as skin atop and around the orb which is this planet Earth, is no real example of what lies further beneath towards the core. Firstly it must be specified that the regional spheres contained within this one sphere are not of physical terrain. They may not be encountered or experienced according to the empirical standards of our uppermost and current substance. All of the inner spheres have continued on as they originally were: in likeness, in material, and all having been but former conditions from which this current orb has unfurled.

Therefore the gradient of etheric matter is, according to present standards, immeasurable and irreconcilable; and even though it does share opportune space, it is also impartial to the sensory perception of man, who if equipped with astral vision may readily, however, penetrate these older worlds. They are there as foundation. They are there caught in time also, because of those 'bits and pieces' that are still to be redeemed and retrieved; held back because they could not make the 'crossing' over into the newer frame of being. However, the planet does keep all that is her own, and would not fain discard or throw off these many beings merely because of their immaturity.



It is the sphere directly beneath this one in which the Faerie Kingdom is contained, and many of the animal souls also. It has run for some time now, almost as quite a parallel world merging out from their timelessness, from past time, endeavoring to awaken into material substantiality. Intelligence has showered into these wisdom-imbued realms and many influences do not have to be met with there, having come directly into the greater path of current activity; and so these etheric beings are largely untroubled by the impinging trends which stretch and contest our Globe.

Looking in, one well might imagine our sphere to be as a very large ball of entwined string. Certainly as a continuum this is quite correct, and also from the perspective of channel runs within the outer shell. It does from the larger perspective, appear as just that - coiled over and over, with the lines being so small as to be almost indistinguishable, fading into obscurity. This 'line' of continuum, when traveled back (and indeed it is) goes right into the very centre space through which we travel into the higher and lower stratospheres. The ‘higher’ being the Heavens, which may be confused because the point of entry is literally from a lower advance, whilst the 'lower' realms of former spheres are indeed 'higher' places in relation to earthly existence. So it could be differentiated by thinking in related terms of 'inner and outer' regions, however, that too is inappropriate as to the truth, for in relation to each other they are both.


Adding to this, we can also have the third option when positioned in an interior globe: moving through to either physical Earth, the open gateway, or the door to the older worlds - and the inexperienced who come to such 'centers' whereupon they may move up and out are often known to confuse the actual places of being. To the insufficiently trained this is quite an ordeal. We have retrieved men from the inner spheres who, once there, have fully believed themselves to be in Heaven, when in fact they are not. With some, their bodies have deceased while awaiting their return, commanding their recovery, and a whole life has been severed because of this would-be initiate's mistaken direction.


In sleep too, there are the wanderers. In vision also, these can be the very spaces of which the seer has experienced the most terrible destructions and actually witnessed the death-throes of the expiring planet as borne out time and time again, within one of the lower spheres - being that which has happened, mistaken for that to be our impending fate. Not so! In point of fact that kind of vision we shall always refute. The reason being that the manner of expiration is not preordained at this point and there is no 'real' substance to this kind of visionary predicting.

Returning to our twiny roads - it is as the 'string' follows through into that space, that sphere adjoining, and may be followed once again, similarly to its respective core. The difference in perspective is that one does not travel directly in but rather is obliged to have moved around (and around) - which, we may point out, by this method one has had to actually experience every cubit of the sphere until finished before gaining the entrance to the heart, the core, of its being. (This, as a fundamental Law: that before one can go to the heart of anything they must know it as well as travelling every length of all the string - i.e. the whole mass.) This is a vast distinction, as you might well now appreciate. The time it takes is not a consideration, for it can be negotiated faster than a crossing of the English Channel. It's all in the technique and the level of self-consciousness which may accordingly determine stopovers.


For the unconscious travelers, the souls who stream through whisked along the channels, their journey, the unconscious passing, is much faster than that of the lone initiate. (Group tours are like that, aren't they? Speeding through places barely touched.)

Coming to the innermost central sphere and the question as to what exactly it is: it is the Sun. This shall confuse a fair few and yet you did ask us of this question - it is the Sun, indeed, our Sun. Nothing more at this point shall be expounded, we would rather leave it with you as is.

The sphere adjoining it (the second youngest/oldest) was/is indeed the 'perfect' realm. It is still intact, with all of its pristine beauty, essential to the first dream of Being. The fullness and majesty of young Creation, which, as Sleeping Beauty, awaits that time when the Savior Prince may recover her and the true Golden Age shall resume to reign - this time with souls apparent and a humanity reworked and revised in glorious apparel, each with their 'keys to the city'.
