HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

 

 

 

 

August 10, 2022

The Twenty-third Saying (Part 3)

“Having read the Saying, The Man put down the scroll awaiting comment from the disciples who had heard the words. The Mariner was the first to speak. He said, ‘Throughout the course of the Teachings you speak of the Image and the Word, while in this Saying you have spoken about the Pure Image. Would you elaborate on this?’

“And The Man answered, ‘The manifestation of Light, which is God’s Truth, appears in the Sun of Righteousness during God’s Second and Final Advent. And within that Light is the Word of God which is Knowledge, or Wisdom, of Himself greatly magnified in this final age. But along with the manifestation of the Light, Darkness also manifests. As you know, we must begin our ascent to the Godhead in stages, first through the material sun. We go through the sun at sunrise and at other times of the day in hopes of seeing the Face of our Maker. And, of course, over a period of time we are inspired by that act. The physical sun is not the Power of Light and of Goodness. We know that there is a Dark World, which in our theology we call the fourth dimension, that was the origin of the third or material dimension.

“‘Beyond the physical sun is a manifestation of energy from higher realms, meaning that the physical sun receives energy from a higher source. When we look at the physical sun, we are looking at the energy on the physical level; but we are also looking at the energy, or the Light, and receiving within our brain and nervous system, the radiation and the intelligence from higher worlds beyond our own solar system. Because we live The Way, we aspire to that true Pure Light of God that is within or beyond that manifestation of Light. If you recall from the allegory of the Garden of Eden, when the Dark Angel spoke to Adam and Eve, they could not tell the difference between the Dark Angel and an Angel of Light. Therefore, it is very difficult to have an understanding of, and to be able to distinguish between, the two. The reference to the Pure Image is to the Pure Image of God.’

“And a Companion of The Way addressed the Teacher saying, ‘In other words, the only way the false can be determined from the real is by experiencing true reality through the Sun of Righteousness. After that experience, you cannot deceive and you cannot be deceived. And that experience is a oneness, a consistent oneness of view, which is all encompassing, all inclusive, all penetrating.’

“‘That is right.’ The Man nodded approval then continued to expound, ‘The world of man and woman is one of environment. As a physical being, or as a human, one may say, “I believe in God,” and “God is my Maker,” and “I want to be good.” But how can one know God if one is ignorant of The Way of becoming spiritual? Unless we have a Soul incarnate with God’s Image and Word, we are only human.’”

Spiritual Energy and Energy Vampires

 

 

“Some people are practically vampires, and live upon the magnetism of others, unconsciously, usually, although some have acquired the knowledge that they may love in others, strength in this way, and practice their wicked arts consciously. This conscious use of their power is a form of black magic, and is attended with certain psychic penalties and punishments. But no one can be thus drawn upon, either by the unconscious demand of others, or by conscious design, after they have once learned something about this human magnetism, and its laws.

“Human magnetism, or Pranic Energy, is a most potent therapeutic force, and, in one form or another, it is found in the majority of cases of psychic healing. It is one of the oldest forms of natural healing, and it may be said to be almost instinctive in the race. A child who has hurt itself, or who feels pain, at once runs to its mother who kisses the hurt part, or places her hands on the seat of the pain and in a few moments the child is better. … This instinctive use of the hand is a form of conveying magnetism to the afflicted person, who is usually relieved by the act.” ~William Walker Atkinson

 

Energy Vampires

It is true that some people are energy vampires. It is also true that most of them are completely unaware of the fact. Those few who are aware, and are doing it intentionally are, as Atkinson says, practicing a form of black magic. I know that a popular novel from about twenty years ago, I can’t recall the title, recommends that spiritual people take energy from other living beings including plants and animals, but I repeat what Mr. Atkinson says: that is practicing black magic and is evil. It is fine to ask another to share some energy with you when your energy is low, but not to take it without permission. It is also fine for you to send some of your prana to another life form, and request that it share some of its energy with you. In this exchange of energy, you learn from each other. An even better solution is to use sun gazing and get energy from the sun.

 

Magnetism and Energy

Atkinson uses the words magnetism and energy interchangeably, but this can be confusing. While magnetism is related to electricity, all energy cannot be considered magnetism, and the life energy or spiritual energy that is primarily of concern here is not magnetism. While it is generally true that people who are abundant in spiritual energy tend to have a magnetic personality, this is not actual magnetism.

 

Psychic Penalties

It is true, as Atkinson notes, that there are psychic and spiritual penalties for those energy vampires who intentionally take energy from others. But penalties are not limited to spiritual vampires. Anyone who misuses spiritual energy may pay a penalty for doing so. Misuse includes using it for materialistic ends, using it to gain some advantage over others, or using it to harm others. The penalties may be the loss of such energy or having things suddenly turn against you.

 

Potent Therapeutic Force

Spiritual energy is indeed a potent therapeutic force. When psychic or spiritual healers work, one of the primary things they do is to try to fix blockages of energy flow in the subject. Sometimes, we have enough energy, but we have blockages that prevent it from flowing properly. Acupressure and acupuncture are all physical ways of repairing energy blocks, and they have been proven to work in many cases. Prayer is also a good way to improve another person’s energy flow so that it improves their health. There is nothing wrong with sending energy to others who need it and want it, but taking energy from others is wrong.

WEEKLY MESSAGE: August 3, 2022

 

 

HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

 

 

 

 

August 3, 2022

The Twenty-third Saying (Part 2)

“‘It is the mission of this Church – the only Church that knows God and is moved by His Image and Word – to teach of the One True God. And it will instruct the whole world in The Way of observing the Image and hearing the Word. And the Good will assist the One God to blot out the Darkness of Evil, and all will be restored and made Good forever.

“‘The human family must see that Good and Evil do exist in the present condition of the world and they must be able to distinguish between the false gods of Evil religion and the True God of True religion. And this is the beginning of their emancipation and freedom from Darkness.

“‘God, joined together with Good men and women on earth in the Image and the Word of the Sun of Righteousness, represents the first stages of the Great Union. Regardless of their station in life – their age, sex or education, wealth, or intelligence – those who love God and wish to do Good need only unify in the True Church to become Sons and Daughters of God, reborn and restored with Him forever in the New Creation which has already begun. And these will be the people of the New Race forming the New Nation of which I have spoken.

“‘Even as God sent me into the world to proclaim His coming into the world to call back His Creation, and as God revealed unto you His Image and Word before its manifestation as great Light, God has kindled the spirits of others to assist in the building of the Church. These are His beloved workers who have labored for aeons of time in the Great Work of redeeming humankind from the bondage of Darkness. Because we are all immortals of spirit, we are able to make the commitment in devotion and sacrifice which lesser mortals are unable to do because of their uncertainty of being.

“‘The Church of Nations and of Peoples will come as a result of a supreme effort made by those called of God who will serve as humans without evident understanding. But in the end, they will know the reasons for their love and devotion, for God in His infinite Goodness will send to them the Angels of Light and they will ascend together to the Eternal World of Light whence they came before the world was made. And they will have remembrances of their true beingness.

“‘It was said among the ancients that in order to know God one must be like God. But I say unto you that unless a person possesses the secrets of how to live The Way, a person cannot find the One God; for He is not found in ordinary religious expression nor in the privacy of one’s inner being. Because the world has lost knowledge of The Way and of the existence of the One God, it is essential that this knowledge be restored. But because the world is Dark and Evil, and because the spark of Light and Goodness is weak, God wills that the strong of spirit – the pre-ordained – lay down the foundation so that it will stand against the adversity of evil and wicked men and women in whose spirits the Darkness is manifest.

“‘The laying of the foundation requires that the whole world be told of the existence of the Image and the Word and the means by which it can be experienced, for unless the pre-ordained labor together in the work of the Church, God’s Light will fade from their spirits and they, too, will become imprisoned by the Evil One who even now labors with vigorous effort to spread Darkness over the spirits of men and women in the world.’”

Again, if I may be of any personal service to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Very truly yours in Light+,

Be Ruled by Truth, Wisdom, and Love

 

 

“Deposit truth in your actions. In your worldly actions, you must be ruled by the truth. In your feelings, you must be ruled by wisdom, and love to rule the head.

“A small job done for God is a great job, but a great job done for you is an insignificant one, a bubble that will pop. The smallest jobs done for God after ten years will make you the strongest and most powerful in the world. The smallest job for God is a job that saves. A good day done for God is a lot.

“The invisible [spiritual] world wants you to do the smallest good, that good that no one but you can see (a good done is secret). Now that should be your new moral.

“The foot of man cannot step in paradise if he does not think, feel, and act right. God took Adam out of paradise after he broke His Law. …

“Thank God for the clouds. Thank God for the trees and flowers. In this way, you will accept a good that in no other way can be received. The grateful heart accepts all of God’s goods.

“The most important thing in the world is love. The second most important is life, and the third is movement and direction. Think of God constantly. We all have to love God. Without love of God, we will be foreign to one another.” ~Biensa Douno

 

Truth in Actions

Most of us think of truth as being something that goes with our thoughts and our words, but it is also in our actions. Sadly, today, there are many who practice truth and rightful thinking in their speech, but not in their actions. They say that we should be loving but turn away from those in need. They say that we should listen to God, but practice materialism instead. Truth is not enough if it is only in our words. It must also be in our actions.

 

Do Good for God

Douno is telling us that even the smallest things we do matter, and we should do them for God. This doesn’t mean that we do whatever we wish to do and say we are doing it for God. It means that before we take action, we should think about what action God would want us to take, and then do that. And as Douno says, doing what we believe are great deeds, what the worldly forces think are great deeds, will be but bubbles popping if they are not the deeds God wants us to do. Of course, part of the problem is knowing what God wants us to do. In some cases, we can figure that out for ourselves if we really want to, but the best option is to awaken and develop our dormant spiritual faculties. Only through the spiritual faculties can we know and understand what God truly wants of us. And while Douno is here emphasizing small deeds done for God, that doesn’t mean we can’t do great deeds for God as well.

 

Adam out of Paradise

It is not entirely accurate to say that God “took Adam out of paradise” when he broke God’s Law. The fact of it is this: God’s Law is enforced automatically. It is as if there was a kind of trap door in Heaven, and when Adam broke the law, the door opened and Adam fell into lower dimensions of being. God didn’t have to take any action against Adam because the Law works on its own.

 

Thank God

We should thank God for the trees and the flowers, the sun, and the clouds. We should thank God that we are alive. Sometimes, this is difficult to do because of the problems we face in the material world, but we must constantly remind ourselves that in this low dimension of matter, the evil things that happen to us (sickness, injury, poverty, etc.) do not come from God, but from the Devil and his demonic minions. But if we try as much as possible to thank God for the good in our lives, more good will come to us.

WEEKLY MESSAGE: July 27, 2022

 

 

HEAD OVERSEER’S WEEKLY MESSAGE

 

 

 

 

July 27, 2022

After a two-month hiatus which included an exhilarating expedition to legendary Vilcabamba in the Peruvian jungle east of the Andes, which my father discovered in 1964, and which I will be describing in detail at our Community Convocation in September, we will now resume our review of The Secret Sayings of Jamil.

The Twenty-third Saying (Part 1)

“On the third day following the giving of the Twenty-Second Saying, on the ides of October, The Man went to the home of a Companion of The Way to expound upon religious doctrines. Six disciples had gathered together to hear his words. Taking a scroll in hand, The Man broke the seal and unwound the ribbon girding the sacred document and, as he had promised, proceeded to reveal to them the Twenty-Third Saying. The Man spoke softly.

“‘These are the words of the Twenty-Third Saying:

“‘To acknowledge that the Eternal One God exists is a natural and normal inclination, for man and woman are the bearers of the spirit created by God. Many seek God and many religions purport to possess Divine instructions that lead man and woman to God. But, I say unto you that not one religion of the world knows the One God nor instructs its followers in the True Way to God. This is a hard but truthful Saying that I have entrusted into the care of the Church. That you must teach this to the human family is a sacred obligation placed upon you by the God who is the Father of all.

“‘Many religions preach of an earthly god, a god made in the image of the mind of Man – cruel, bloodthirsty, harsh in His judgements, jealous and vengeful. And this is not the character of the One God of Eternal Goodness, Truth, Beauty, and Love. Make no pact with these religions or their gods by whatever name, but strive to teach what has been or will be revealed unto you by inspiration of the God of whom I speak.

“‘That Good and Evil exist in the world can be observed. To deny that either exists is to contradict reality. Good and Evil have a source. The Good comes only from the One God, Father of Goodness. The Evil comes from the Dark One, the rival of the One True God. The One God rules over an eternal World of Spirit where there is neither death nor pain, suffering nor want, where all is Beautiful and Good.

“‘The Evil One of disunity rules over the Worlds of Darkness whence the physical universe had its origin. And here much Evil prevails because of its separation from the One God. The strong and the powerful, the deceitful, the cunning, and the wicked rule with strength and are worshiped and adored by the weaker and the unsuspicious. Here the Great Lie rather than the Truth prevails, and all living things suffer and die for it, never knowing the Eternal Life of Light to which the spirit is heir.

“‘Because there is some goodness in the world and because the spirit of Man yearns to know the one God and return to Him, He has manifested His Pure Image and Word so that all may know of Him. But more than this, He has so ordained that all Darkness is to be burned away for all time by the brightness of His Image and all memory of Evil will be blotted out by the Truth of His Word. And the whole world will see that God is the worker of Good and that Evil is the absence of God.

Again, if I may be of any personal service to you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Very truly yours in Light+,

Gene

ONLY 6 WEEKS UNTIL

CONVOCATION

September 7th – September 12th

REGISTER NOW!

Click the image below for lodging information
  • April 8, 2022

    The combined 2022 Cosolargy Convocation and Seminar will be held in Reno from September 7th through September 12th. This year is a very special year, as it marks the 60th anniversary of the birth of the Sun of Righteousness and the announcement of God’s Second Advent. It is also a cosmically important 20-year cycle – the 3rd since 1962. The planned schedule includes:

    Residence Training: Color & Sacred Imagery

    Part 1 is six hours of oral instruction on the psycho-physical and spiritual bodies; color polarities; demonstrations on the use of gemstones, the sacred thread, and mirrors; and the use of color in ancient medical practices. Part 2 is an expansion of Part 1 in four hours of oral instruction on healing, the use of the sacred thread and vestments, the Pythagorean image of the sun, and the awakening of the force centers.

    Readings: The Jamil Commentaries

    Originally published in 1973, a series of six moving impressions expressed by people who actually met The Child with a foreword by Gene Savoy Jr., who met and knew each of the six individuals. Included in the commentaries is Jamil’s natal chart.

    Presentations:

    • The Three Communions – Gene Savoy Jr.

    A comprehensive commentary on the three communions – the communion of bread and water, the communion of light, and the communion of the Divine Presence – their importance, meanings, and related symbologies.

    • Solar Cultures of Africa – Shawn Smith

    Every culture that applied The System has something to offer us. This includes the many solar cultures that existed in Africa. This presentation will focus mainly on the Dogon of western Africa.

    • Liturgical Chimes and Hand Gestures – Bruce Kanzelmeyer

    Sound, color, and an introduction to chants and gestures used in the Sunrise Divine Service. (click here for more details).

    • Origins of Shingon Buddhism – Yukinori Matsushita

    Shingon Buddhism, meaning “True Word,” is one of the major sects of Buddhism in Japan and was founded by Kukai (774 – 835 CE), known posthumously as Kobo Daisih, after he traveled to China, where he studied Tangmi under the monk Huiguo and became a Teacher of Light and introduced a solar religion to Japan. His school at Mount Koya has one of the few replicas in the world of the so-called Nestorian Monument.

    • What is Metanoia ? – Ted Staver

    Exploring the concept of metanoia as it relates to The System of Cosolargy and The Community as a whole: the forms of metanoia; metanoia as regeneration of spirit and a special state of grace that is a blanket over the Community; collective manifestation of metanoia and Shekinah; the oral tradition of the paradosis as the secret of parousia and the means to metanoia.

    • The Solar Cross and The Sacred Calendar

    “The Sacred Calendar” – Amanda Buchanan

    The geometry of the Sacred Calendar, sacred days and how they were derived, the calculation of sunrises and sunsets, and how the calendar relates to the Solar Cross.

    “The Solar Cross” – Michael McIntyre

    A multi-faceted approach on the symbology of the Solar Cross borrowing from the disciplines of anthropology, cognitive science, ancient texts, geometry, and psycholinguistics.

    • The Essene Legacy – Robert Petrovich

    Rediscovering, through the Sacred Teachings of Light and the findings of recent scholarship, the power and dedication of the Essenes and Therapeutae.

    (click here for more details).

    • New Scientific views of Consciousness – Rebecca Willis

    A new movement within science is working to overturn the currently accepted materialistic worldview and its limitations on understanding the human spirit. They recognize consciousness as beyond the brain and primary to physical existence. Their work offers new perspectives on consciousness while laying a groundwork for greater receptivity to the teachings of Cosolargy within society.

    •  State of The Community Address – Gene Savoy Jr.

    A report by the Head Overseer on the activities of The Community; on things accomplished; projects in the works or nearing completion; and strategies, tasks, and ventures planned for the near future.

    Updates on Japan, Mexico and Peru
