a worthy quote

"The Soul, from which emanate all forces which organize and animate the sensible universe, can through an act of conversion collect itself and reascend to its principle which is Intelligence."
(Emile Brehier, The Philosophy of Plotinus)

interflow

Just as the inbreaths we take contain elements of all outbreaths on earth and our outbreathings interfuse with the inbreaths of all others (human and nonhuman, animal and plant), so too do knowledge systems interflow.

Individual and group worldviews, cognitive schemas, belief systems, religions inter-are.

While some seem to consider their belief system to be inviolate, wearing a cast-iron chastity belt which never has been and never will be penetrated by "foreign" thought forms, the reality is that a thought group orgy is ongoing.

Every consciousness system is permeable to all other consciousness systems. "Heresy" is growth and transmutation. Otherwise, one may as well lock a radiation proof box on one's head and keep it there.

this energetic world

The energetic world which we are and in which we live continually provides us with the strength and the wisdom of the cosmos. By cosmos I mean the vast sea of interwhirling energy of which we are manifestations. The cosmos is lively and alive, has character and personality, is rich in humor and compassion. All knowledge and wisdom are reverberations of the cosmos.

1 and 0

An entire theology or cosmology can be built around 1 and 0. The 1 represents the human extrusion and intrusion into the cosmos, the erect "I" insisting on its portion and its due. Following I like baby ducks waddling after their mama are me, my, and mine. The 0 represents open surrender to the cosmos, which of course we already are. 0 represents true emptying, allowing radiant being to move through. In conventional religious terms, 1 represents that from which we are "saved" and 0 that which we are "saved" to. 1 and 0, darling, that upon which the computational system of computers is based and that by which we count for something and count as nothing.

recipe: jacob's ladder

Forget the lone hierarchy, the solo ladder of angels ascending and descending. Allow the ladder, its base fixed firmly on the ground of your center, to form a giant pinwheel, revolving round and at every point in space and time simultaneously. A creative blooming, blossoming into infinite eternal. What was ground is now your core. What was ladder is now energetic open radiance with vibratory energies (angels) continually on the move -- a radiant pulsing being joins the cosmos. This is you. No more linearity. Spheressence.

Affirmation

We have neglected the spiritual realm and brought about our ruin. We do not even begin to remember that the earth from which we spring is a celestial earth and thus we are celestial too. We do not even begin to remember that the spiritual world, the celestial world, births this material world, that the material world is an extension of celestial energy.

We are destroying the earth and our civilization because of this lack, this neglect of what is true and what is real. We live in the phantasy of materialism, of matter as all that matters.

Many of us know better. We join together in spirit and in truth to live each hour, each day, in the celestial realm of heart, of soul, of love. We are celestial beings embodying on earth at a time the earth needs us most. A crucial time.

We will move through this with the aid and assistance of the entire spiritual universe. We are not alone. Our spiritual ancestors are with us and urge us on. We are here to reclaim the earth in the name of the Spirit by which it was born. So help us God. Amen.
