Life is always Moving and Changing

Yin and Yang fantasy with the angels on the clouds

“There is no constant state of life; all is movement and change. Therefore, it is well to build the structure of your life on a foundation of things, which are not easily removed. These are wisdom, skill, and knowledge, which once possessed cannot be taken away, as can hoarded gold and cherished chattels in the ebb and flow of life’s fortunes. Gold and silver are uneatable stones, but wisdom is the food of the gods. Skill and knowledge define the difference between the ox with the yoke and the plowman with the whip.

“Fear not the feelings which stir in the heart, for therein lie the greatest of life’s treasures. Taste their honeyed bitterness, and though you are consumed as you consume, something will remain, which is yours forever. Life is matured and mellowed by the treasures, which pain the heart, and without them, the soul cannot develop.

“With some, life is generous and with others niggardly, but whether you pass through the stages of life in a lowly or a high condition, your life will be neither wholly happy nor wholly miserable.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:4:5-7)

No Constant State

Nothing in life is constant, although many think otherwise. Everything is always changing and moving. Even things like rocks change all the time. Wind, rain, and other conditions cause change in rocks that may be too small to notice, but happen anyway. An extreme example is the Grand Canyon, which was created by a river wearing away the rock over many centuries.

Build a Foundation

The quote advises us to build a foundation on things that are not easily removed. The only “things” that meet that criteria are our spiritual faculties. That is another reason to awaken and develop those faculties. Only the spiritual is permanent. While some like to claim that matter is permanent, they are wrong. Matter is constantly changing form. And now that we are in the End Times, God is gradually changing matter into spirit, as it was always meant to be. Wisdom and Knowledge are indeed important and cannot be taken away, but true Wisdom and Knowledge is spiritual.

Skill and Knowledge

Knowledge, and skills do define the difference between Man and animals. So do Wisdom and Truth. As the quote indicates, one can have huge amounts of silver and gold, yet that doesn’t save him from decay and death. Only developing the Spirit can do that.

Life is Matured

Life is matured and mellowed by the true treasures which are spiritual, but the quote is wrong in saying these things pain the heart and consume us to some degree. The soul is developed by spiritual disciplines, not by earthly things.

 




Commune with Your Soul

“Commune with your soul within, and consider how wonderfully you are created. Meditate long upon your nature, contemplate the powers you possess. Consider your needs and desires; thus, you will find the proper path through life and a sure guide to direct your footsteps.

“As the union of heat and tinder produces fire, so does the union of soul and body produce life in man.

“Nothing is constant in life, except wisdom, knowledge and skill. Life ebbs and flows, as the tide and the fortunes of men wax and wane as the moon. The rich become poor, and the poor become rich. The powerful become weak, and the weak become powerful. Where the stream flowed yesteryear is now dust, and the cooling waters have moved elsewhere. The lakes of last season have joined the wilderness, and the dykes have become pits. Fortune smiles upon the improvident, and misfortune smites the worthy. Men are born handsome or ugly, rich or poor; they inherit a life of ease or a

life of struggle.

“Here is wisdom, accept the nature of things as they are, for as such they accord with the Plans of God and are under the Law. But accept them not with resignation, as an affliction to be borne, but as a challenge to contest. Man must rise to meet life or be overwhelmed; this, too, is the Law. When the road seems long and the load heavy, remember that the stouthearted runner carries the greatest burden.”

-the Kolbrin Bible (MPR:4:1-4)

Commune

Yes, we should commune with our Soul, but that can’t happen until we awaken and develop our Spirit until it becomes a conscious Soul. We should consider how wonderfully we are created. While we are born into this world in a physical body, we also have a divine Spirit provided by God. It is only because of that Spirit that it is possible for us to redeem ourselves with the help of God.

Needs and Desires

We should consider our needs and desires, but while we must meet the needs of our body and mind, we should take care that when it comes to desires, we only work toward those that meet the Laws of God and truly benefit us, as well as the whole world.

Union of Soul and Body

The union of body and Spirit does produce life in Man. While the physical body does have a life of its own, only the union of body, mind, and Spirit produces true Life capable of immortality.

Nothing is Constant Except Wisdom and Knowledge

Wisdom and Knowledge are constant. What is wise today will be wise tomorrow. What is true knowledge today will always be true. Skills, on the other hand, are not constant. We gain and lose skills throughout our lives on earth.

Fortunes Wax and Wane

While it doesn’t always happen, it is true that the rich sometimes lose their fortunes while the poor gain fortunes. During the Great Depression, many wealthy people lost everything. On the other hand, sometimes people with very little win a fortune in a state or national lottery.

Accept the Nature of Things

We should accept the nature of things, but that doesn’t mean we should not try to change them when we know things could be better. Now that we are in the End Times, everything is changing as God slowly changes the fallen realm of matter back into Spirit. We can help with those changes by doing God’s work on earth, and encouraging others to do the same. Those who don’t rise to meet these changes will indeed be overwhelmed.

 

 




We Arrive with Nothing, and Leave Earth with Nothing Physical

“Naked does man come from his mother’s womb, and naked does he return to the womb of the Earth. He brings no possessions with him to Earth, and no more can be taken out. Yet, he leaves not altogether as he entered, for though his riches and estate, his titles, even his clothes are left behind, if he has lived wisely, he goes out richer in soul wisdom and arrayed in soul beauty. Man arrives at the Great Portal arrayed in glory or clothed in horror.

“In the newborn childling is the soft seed of the slumbering soul; this will be developed, moulded and fashioned throughout the period of its earthly existence. It will be shaped by man himself to his own inner likeness; then, when stripped of its outward bodily covering, man will stand revealed to himself and be faced with splendor or horror.

“In the likeness, to which the soul is fashioned in the body, so shall it come forth in the spirit on its appointed day.

“Thus it is written in the Secret Books of Wisdom, which are revealed to the few. The body is a womb, life the days of conception, and death the birth of the soul. Is it not written that some shall bring forth

monsters and fearful things, and some shall bear gods? These things are not beyond understanding.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:33-36)

We Arrive Naked

We are born into the physical world naked and with nothing. It doesn’t matter if our parents are poor, middle class, or wealthy. Everyone arrives the same. The quote says we also leave Earth naked. That is not literally true, but it makes the point that we take nothing with us when we exit the material realm. Even if we have accumulated great wealth, we can take none of it with us. Even if we could, it would be useless in the spiritual realm.

If We Live Wisely

If we live wisely, we will develop our spiritual faculties while we are alive in the physical sense. Then we do take something with us when we physically die. We take our spirit and soul. Many people believe that when we die, our spirit goes directly to Heaven. That is not true. Heaven is a place of perfection, and a Soul that is not fully developed cannot go there since it is not yet perfect. So spiritual development doesn’t end with physical death. We must continue to develop after we depart this world until we achieve the perfection that allows us to enter heaven.

Slumbering Soul

We don’t enter the physical world with the seed of the Soul, but we do enter this realm with our spiritual faculties in a dormant state similar to a coma. We must awaken and develop those faculties. That is what Jesus meant when he said we must be reborn. That is also what the quote means when it says “In the likeness, to which the soul is fashioned in the body, so shall it come forth in the spirit on its appointed day.”

Secret Books

We don’t know what the Secret Books of Wisdom were, but all of the ancient mystery schools had their secret books of teachings, and they were revealed only to a small number of people. Even those who were admitted as students to the schools did not get to see them until they successfully passed a trial period of two or three years.

Some Bear Monsters

In a sense, I guess we can say it is true that some people bear monsters. People like Hitler and Kim Jong-un. Others that may not have killed many people, but were monsters for the way in which they killed just a few. As for bearing gods, no human has ever given birth to a god, but humans have made many false gods to worship because the greatness of the one true God was too much for them to comprehend.

 

 




Wise Men Know the Nature of Things

“The earthly and wayward seek only after outward pleasures and the satisfaction of the body. They fall into the snare of disbelief in the soul, and the Law decrees that disbelief shall be easy.

“Wise men, knowing the nature of immortal things, seek not for anything stable here among unstable things.

“That by which we know the texture of things, by which we taste, smell and hear, by which we experience the tenderness and suffering of love and perceive the beauty of nature, by which we value the glory of self sacrifice, by that we are also assured of something immortal within us.

“For when a man comes to the realization that it is by the soul within him that he knows and experiences all things about him, he has taken the first great step towards conscious immortality.”

The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:23-26)

The Earthly and Wayward

The earthly and wayward seek for material pleasures as the only things of value in life. They either don’t believe in anything spiritual, or they believe that they can wait until they are physically dead to worry about the spirit. Both of those beliefs are false.

Disbelief Shall be Easy

When the quote says that the law decrees that disbelief in the soul “shall be easy,” it is referring to the false law of the Demiurge, not the true Law of God. God’s Law is that we should believe in the Spirit and Soul and that we should develop those spiritual faculties while we are still in the physical world.

Wise Men Know

Wise men and women know the nature of immortal things. They know that it is spiritual things that are immortal, so they do not seek immortal things in the physical realm, what the quote calls “unstable things”. Many know that some spiritual teachers of the past said that nothing physical is real. What they meant is that nothing physical is permanent. Only the Spiritual is permanent. Only the spiritual comes from God.

Love and Beauty

Knowing love and beauty does assure us that there is something immortal within us, as the quote says. Of course, this only goes for real Love, which is universal, and real beauty that is not defined by things that are temporary, and definitely not by things altered with cosmetics and surgery. Real beauty is more than what’s on the surface.

Conscious Immortality

It is true that when we learn that it is through the spirit and soul that we know what and experience reality, it is the first step towards conscious immortality. Indeed, one of the purposes of spiritual development techniques is to gradually rise to higher and higher levels of consciousness until we reach the highest level where God and the Angels dwell.


Since this article is short, I’ve decided to add a few lines from a very spiritual song that few spiritual people seem to know about. The song is Hummingbird by Seals and Crofts.

“Haven’t you noticed the days somehow keep getting longer, and the spirit voice grows stronger in us all.

Haven’t you noticed the Rays, the Spirit Sun grows stronger, and a new day is dawning for us all.”

Here is a link to the full song on YouTube:

Hummingbird – Seals & Crofts [With lyrics]




The Soul is not Born

 

“The soul is not born, nor does it know itself as a soul. The purpose of its earthly journey is to awaken it to self-awareness and to provide it with the ability to continue existence in the Region Beyond the West. Therefore, how could it enter upon earthly life with these things? Were they already there, life and Earth would have no purpose.

“The soul is bodiless within the body, everlasting among things that change and pass away. Man does not perceive his soul, because his senses face outward from the soul, towards earthly things, with which it makes contact. So it is that only the most developed of men can close out the material things about them and turn their senses inward to perceive the soul.

“The soul looks out through the eyes and sees all, which is without, but nothing of this can look in through the eyes and see the soul, even though the soul’s feeling may be reflected there. An eye without a soul behind it sees nothing.

“The earthly and wayward seek only after outward pleasures and the satisfaction of the body. They fall into the snare of disbelief in the soul, and the Law decrees that disbelief shall be easy.

“Wise men, knowing the nature of immortal things, seek not for anything stable here among unstable things.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:20-24)

The Soul is not Born

This is true, in a sense. Since Souls were created by God, they exist outside of the limitations of space and time just as God does. Therefore, we cannot say they were born. They simply have always existed. This is a hard idea to grasp when we are trapped in the material realm where space and time are very real; nonetheless, it is true.

Souls need to Awaken

We shouldn’t say that the purpose of life on Earth is to allow the Soul to awaken. That implies that a Soul cannot be awake without spending time on Earth, which is not true. What is true is that after the Demiurge created beings of matter without Souls, God gave us Souls so that it was possible for us to awaken and be saved.

I’ve never heard it called that, but I have to assume that the “Region Beyond the West” refers to Heaven.

The Soul has no Body

It is true that the Soul has no physical body, but our Spirit, which is simply a Soul that has not been fully awakened and developed, does have a non-material body.

The Soul Sees Without

It is true that the Soul can see what is around us, but we cannot look inside to see the Soul. Even if we look at someone else, we cannot see their Soul. While some think the eyes are the window to the Soul, that is not the case. We cannot see the Soul by looking into our own eyes or another person’s.




Only Man has a Soul that can Feel Shame

 

“Man, alone of all creatures, is capable of blushing, for he, alone of all things living, has a soul which can experience a sense of shame. That man has a soul is beyond all doubt; it is the most obvious of all truths. Seek not to delve unduly into its secrets but to harmonize it with your body. Commune with it, and awaken its potentialities.

“Intellect, reason, willpower and comprehension; these are not the soul. They are the manifestations of its existence, its attributes and its activity, but they are not the soul itself. Stimulate the soul by contact with that to which it responds. Know it through its manifestations and understand it through its faculties.

“It remains immortal and indestructible throughout all ages. Its splendor is displayed in noble deeds, and its glory in works of art and craftsmanship. It will survive your bodily disintegration. It was not created by the quickening of the flesh, nor conceived within the womb. Its seed existed before the body and preceded the thinking heart. The Great God sows soul seeds into earthly flesh, as man sows barley seeds in the fields of black soil.

“The soul is yours to fashion; it can be made radiant by goodness, beautified by virtue and glorified by love. It can be hideously deformed by vices and passions and twisted into a form of distorted horror by

meanness and hatred.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:11-14)

Man has a Divine Soul

This is something that few people understand. Many say that animals have souls just as humans do. While that is true, it is only the mundane soul that is associated with the physical body. Only man has a Divine Soul as well as a mundane one. It is that Divine Soul that can feel shame.

I don’t think the quote is correct in saying that it is “beyond all doubt” that man has a soul. Many people today don’t believe in the Soul, in the afterlife, or in God. Fortunately, more are waking up to the truth.

Awaken Its Potential

In this statement, the quote is correct. The Spirit and Soul do not awaken and develop on their own. It is up to each of us to awaken and develop our spiritual faculties. God must help with this, but He won’t help if we don’t participate in the process. It does need to harmonize with the body and mind. More specifically, it must control the Ego so that it doesn’t dominate our behavior.

The Soul is Immortal

It is true that the Soul is immortal and indestructible throughout all ages. That is because the Soul, as a creation of God, exists outside of the limitations of space and time. The soul has always existed, and will always exist. But if you don’t bother to develop your Spirit and Soul, your Soul will return to Heaven without you when you die. An important part of spiritual development is integrating the mind and Spirit, so that you will continue on after the inevitable death of the physical body.

Yours to Fashion

It is up to each of us to fill the Soul with the virtues of Beauty, Love, and Joy. If instead, you live a life of materialism, becoming attached to things, and engaging in physical passions, your Soul will be harmed by such behavior. If you commit the ultimate crime of murder, your soul will detach itself from you and leave you as a soulless shell. So feed you soul on the things it loves. Feed it so it will grow. That is how to become immortal.




Something Unseen Animates the Human Body

 

“Something unseen animates the inert clay of your being. Something intangible is added to the earthly material of your body. Think not primarily of your material self, nor say ‘My heart is supreme.’ For within your body resides the soul, which activates the thinking heart, and is not the resident of the dwelling of greater importance than the materials of its construction?

“Gaze upon a corpse; see. It is empty of life, something that was is no longer there; the soul is missing.

“Your soul is the Lord of your Body, suffer not the subject to rebel, nor to assert its sway, for its domination cannot be beneficial. Let the soul not only vitalize, but rule and direct the flesh, that wildness and excesses may be held in leash.

“The soul delights in sweet smells and knows the perfumes of Earth by the performance of the nose. It rejoices in delicacies of the table and tastes them only through the workings of the mouth. Food feeds the flesh, but the flesh finds no pleasure in eating, for it is the soul, which experiences the enjoyment of food.”

The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:6-9)

Something Unseen

Something unseen animates the physical body, not only of humans, but of all physical beings. That something is Spirit. All things have a Spirit. Native Americans believe that even things we consider nonliving, such as rocks and rivers, have a Spirit, and they are correct.

The Soul Activates the Thinking Heart

Some in the past may have believed that thinking happened in the heart, but it doesn’t. We know today that thinking happens in the brain and is not related to the Soul or spirit in any way. What some recent scientific research has found, however, is that consciousness does not originate in the brain, but comes from outside of us. Some think there is only one consciousness, but it has layers like those of an onion. The primary goal of spiritual development is to rise up to the highest level of consciousness.

The quote is correct in saying that the resident of a dwelling is more important than the material of its construction. In this case, both consciousness and Spirit are more important than the physical body.

Let the Soul Rule

It is important for the Soul to rule over and control the Ego. In order for it to do that, it must be awakened and developed. Unfortunately, that can’t happen overnight. It takes years of practicing Spiritual development techniques before it can happen.

The Soul Delights in Sweet Smells

The Soul does delight in sweet smells. They can be an aid to awakening the Soul. That is why incense was originally used in some churches and temples. Pleasant music can have a similar effect on the Spirit and Soul. I disagree with the claim that it is the Soul that enjoys the taste of food. Science today is much more advanced than when the Kolbrin Bible was written, so we know that taste is a physical sense located in the taste buds of the tongue. Not only is physical food not tasted by the soul, but the Law of God says that killing and eating other beings, plant or animal, is wrong.




God is Above All

“The One God is above all in greatness, but under Him above all else on Earth is the soul of man. It is not isolated from the Godhead above, nor from the mortal below, for it is that, which spans the gulf between. It is the link between God and man, between immortal and mortal.

“Nothing exists, which is or can be isolated from all else. There is a connection between Earth and the Region of Glory, a link between dust and star. From the Highest God down to the mote runs an unbroken and unbreakable chain.

“Man is apart from all other creatures, in that he has foreknowledge of death and decay. If man be immortal, then it is the burden of his immortality; but if he passes to nothingness, he is cursed above the unknowing beasts, which know not the dread of approaching doom.

“Has man been placed above the beasts to be confronted with his

own nothingness? Is his superiority nought but the father of terrors? Such cannot be, for the direction of life is ever towards betterment, and it cannot be cast back upon itself.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:1-4)

The Greatness of God

It should be obvious that the greatness of God is greater than that of any other being, but some people don’t understand that. If any other being were greater than God, then that being would be the true god.

Soul of Man

It is true that the Soul of Man is above all else on Earth. The Soul is that part of us that is capable of immortal life, but we must make the effort to awaken and develop it while we are on Earth. It is true that the human Spirit, which becomes a Soul when properly developed, Links Heaven and Earth. The Spiritual Sun also acts as an intermediary between Man and God by bringing God’s Light to us, but it is up to us to accept that Light and use it to develop our Spirit.

Nothing Can Be Isolated

This statement in the quote is true. Nothing can be isolated from other things. Everything is connected. In Cosolargy, we wear our sacred thread to remind us of that fact. Until recently, most scientists disagreed with this belief, but increasing evidence of the fact is starting to convince some. Particularly, the fact that scientific experiments have shown that two identical particles can affect each other, even when separated by a large distance.

Man is Different

It is true that man is different from all other Earthbound beings in that he has foreknowledge of death. Not that we know when we will die, but we know that someday our physical self will end. That is why it is so important to develop our spiritual Self before that happens. And while animals may not understand death as we do, there is evidence that when a pet is dying, they are aware of it and will behave in certain ways that are different from their normal behavior.

Direction of Life

It is true that the direction of life is always toward betterment, but materialistic scientists think that evolution has always moved forward. In actual fact, man has devolved from a much greater being of Light and Spirit. We are now at the point in human history where we can choose to turn around and start evolving again. God has sent us the Sun of Righteousness to help. But God isn’t going to do it all for us. We need to make the effort ourselves.




There is No Other Being Like God

“There is none other like unto the One God in all His glory. Whose strength can challenge Him? Whose will can contend with His will? Whose might can equal His? Where is another with His wisdom? Who in goodness can compare with Him?

“By the power of His thoughts, many kingdoms are brought forth beyond Earth. He speaks the unutterable word, and they are created. He rules His creatures with infinite wisdom and directs their destinies with unchallengeable decrees. His will controls the forces within men ,and the thing they seek unknowingly is Him. As the body, when hungry is filled with the urge to eat and when thirsty, with the urge to drink, so is the spirit in man filled with the urge to seek God.

“His ordinances govern Earth and the Heavens above. All things therein have their appointed place and purpose, and in their nature conform to His Law. His ways are inscrutable, transcending the

understanding of men. His thoughts are a mystery, which men may not fathom, they are veiled and withdrawn beyond the comprehension of mortals.

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:10-12)

None Like the One God

There is only one true God. The Demiurge loves to pretend that he is God, and while many believe him, he is not. Some people who oppose religion will say when someone says they believe in God, “Which one?” They think that because there are many names for God, these must be different Gods, but there is only one God, despite different people giving him different names.

Strength and Will

The strength that God has is not physical strength since God is not a physical being. One of the definitions of strength is: the capacity of an object or substance to withstand great force or pressure. That is the kind of strength that God has. No being, no force, no energy, can force God to do anything. As for His Will, it is that will that governs all of creation. The Laws of God and the Will of God are the same thing. Even the realm of nature must obey the Will of God. While many humans don’t obey God’s Will, they suffer consequences for doing so. Not that God punishes them, they punish themselves

Wisdom and Goodness

No one has either the wisdom or goodness of God. Even Jesus said so when someone called him “good master,” and he replied, “Do not call me good, only the Father in Heaven is good”. As for wisdom, I think most of us understand that the ultimate wisdom is the wisdom of God. Some materialists think that some men have wisdom. While they may have some, none have the full wisdom of God.

Power of His Thoughts

The quote says that by His thoughts God creates many kingdoms beyond Earth. This does not mean other planets and stars of the material sort. It means that God creates spiritual worlds or dimensions. When it says in the Bible that God has created us in His image, it can be interpreted in two ways. One, it means that God created our spirits, not our physical bodies. It also means that god creates things by forming an image in His mind. When he does that, the thing exists.

Urge to Seek God

The quote is correct in saying that just as a hungry person has an urge to eat and a thirsty person has an urge to drink, so man’s spirit has an urge to seek God. This is true, but only if the spirit has been awakened from the dormant state it is in when we are born into the physical world. One that happens, then the spirit does have a strong desire to know God. That is why awakening the spirit is the first part of any legitimate spiritual development school.

His Ordinances Govern

All things that exist are governed by God’s Law. Simple things that have little or no consciousness automatically conform to God’s Law. More advanced beings may foolishly try to do things against God’s Law, but in the end, they always suffer consequences for doing so. So remember, there is but one God and no other being is His equal.




Man Lives His Allotted Span on Earth

 

 

“A man lives his allotted span in the dispensation of the High God of Old, whose will encompasses the daily task and round. All things have their beginning and end with God. His power cannot be suppressed. His knowledge is the wisdom of eternity. His strength reaches out into infinity.

“His dwelling place is set in the universal center, and He encompasses all the universes great and small. His breath sustains life in multitudinous forms, and his thought holds all things to their proper shape.

He prescribes the courses of the stars. He issues His commands to the winds, and they sing their responses. The wide seas murmur His praise. He moves the silences in the void of empty space, where the Eternal Heart lies sleeping. Order and beauty are shaped by His hands.

“His voice speaks from the sandy silences. He whispers in the cool breezes. He roars in the whirlwind. He murmurs in the running waters. He sighs in the treetops, and men hear His voice without understanding.

“Man dreams and says this is reality. He sees the shadow, but is blinded before the light. He reasons and is deceived. The design of the True God and His nature cannot be understood in the light of reason, for reason is not with this God, who knows all things without reason.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:6-9)

We Live Our Allotted Span

We each live an allotted span, which is determined, in the overall sense, by God. We can shorten our physical lives by eating poorly, not exercising, using illegal drugs, or intentional suicide. We can also increase our our span by living a healthy lifestyle, and using anti-aging supplements. Yet, while there are some who believe that eventually medical advances will allow us to live forever in a physical body, it is simply not possible. All things physical have a beginning and an end. The smart thing to do is to awaken and develop our immortal Spirit and Soul. Only that can give us true immortality.

All things Begin and end with God

Everything that exists in Nature was created by God. Even the physical universe, which was created by the Demiurge, has a spiritual element to it that was created by God. Of course, man-made things are not from God, so we can’t blame God for guns, cigarettes, and other things that are harmful to Man and other beings.

His Knowledge is Wisdom

Many people today are confused about this. Many think that the knowledge we get in school may sometimes be considered wisdom, but it isn’t. The only true Wisdom is the Knowledge that comes directly from God. This knowledge cannot be found in books, nor can it be found in the human mind. Only the Spirit and Soul can receive and understand God’s Wisdom.

God Dwells in the Universal Center

In a way, that is true, but it can be misleading. If you think of the dimensions of reality being like the layers of an onion, the center would be the middle part of the onion. In actual fact, God dwells in the highest dimension, which is the outermost layer, and all other dimensions are within it. As the quote goes on to say, God “ encompasses all the universes great and small.” So that backs up the teaching that the dwelling place of God is the outermost layer, not the innermost.

Man Sees the Shadow, but is Blinded by Light

We see the shadow world, which is the world of matter. We don’t see the spiritual world, which is invisible to the physical eyes. Only the Spirit can see the spiritual world. And if God were to appear in front of us in his true form, the brightness of His Light would probably blind us. But this also has an allegorical meaning. It means that the vast majority of us refuse to “see” anything beyond the physical. Even many who believe in God think of him as a physical being. But if God were physical, then like everything else physical, he would have a beginning and an end, and He would have a specific size. But God has no beginning and no end, and no limits.
