three realms

Three realms: (1) the humanimal realm, (2) the inner or esoteric realm, (3) the unending depths of the inner; the esoteric of the esoteric.

The humanimal realm contains the potential for the birth of humans. Much of the socio-political world is inhabited by and created by humanimals. This is the world of turmoil, the cauldron out of which true humans can be born. Humanimals know little or nothing of the esoteric realm and are motivated by their genitalia, their mouths, and a false image of themselves. We are all humanimals until born into the inner realm. We stop attending to our advantage in the exoteric and open as pilgrims of the esoteric.

The inner or esoteric realm is the realm of spirit, of spiritual intelligence and awareness. When we open in this realm, we become human, no longer humanimals. We receive guidance, knowledge, and understanding. We belong to a vast community of those who have gone before us and those yet to come. We are at home while on an unending journey, a journey of boundless compassion and understanding.

The realm of the esoteric of the esoteric, the inner depths, is the Wellspring from which all knowledge, wisdom, and compassion arise. As we turn away from the humanimal, open to our humanness, we begin to live in the realm of the Angelic. We do not know what this means until we live here.

The three realms. We choose the realm in which we live, in which we cast our fortune, our life. We find that not only do we choose, we are chosen. Love is mutual.
