Mortal Man Forgets His Previous Life as Spirit

 

“Mortal man may, in the course of time, forget his experiences, but within the soul, they are retained forever. The soul is a hunter, and the quarry is Truth. The weapons of the hunt are reason and experience.

“The years of the wrongdoer and he who walks in wickedness plant more wrinkles and scars on the face of the soul than on the face of the body.

“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 Kolbrin Bible (MPR:3:18-22)

Man Forgets

It is true that we forget our previous life as spiritual beings, but on the other hand, our physical memory is far greater than most of us believe. That is because we have hidden within us the memories of past generations going back as far as 32 generations. In most cases, those memories of past relatives remain unknown to us, but occasionally, one can come forward and take over. This can happen when some kind of trauma causes the personality to become withdrawn. We have seen this in movies such as “The Three Faces of Eve,” where it was called multiple-personality disorder, but is now known as Dissociative Identity Disorder. Neither of these names recognizes the fact that it is not a splitting of one personality that causes this, but the coming forward of the personalities of ancestors. This is also where the mistaken concept of reincarnation comes from. Either that, or someone is simply tapping into memories found in the Akashic Records.

Walking in Wickedness

The quote says that one who does wicked things scars his Soul more than his body. I’m not sure that is true. The Soul cannot break into pieces. That does not happen. The Soul is a spirit, not a china plate. What can happen is that the Soul will leave the person, and he will become one of the Soulless, a group which exists in large numbers these days.

The Soul is not Born

It is true that the Soul is not born. As pure Spirit, it exists outside of the limitations of space and time. It is necessary, as the quote says, to awaken the Soul to its self-awareness, or as we prefer to say in Cosolargy, make it Conscious. A fully conscious Soul is a powerful thing. I have no idea why the quote says the Soul exists “beyond the West,” but we know it exists as part of the spiritual realm, not the material.

The Soul is Bodiless

This claim is true if you think of a body only in the material sense. Actually, the Soul has a body, but it is pure Spirit, or if you prefer, it is Divine Light.

The Soul Looks Out

The Quote says that the Soul looks out through the eyes. This isn’t true. The Spirit/Soul has its own spiritual senses and does not rely on the physical senses that can easily be tricked. IT is true, in a sense, that the eye without the Soul “sees nothing”. It is more accurate to say that the eyes see nothing real, nothing Spiritual. The eyes can see the physical world, but what they see is not even the real nature of the physical realm, but only illusions created by the brain. So awaken and develop your Soul if you wish to deal with Reality.




The True Nature of God

spirit

 

“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.

“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.

“His design is unrevealed to the multitude. Few are the men who can understand why He planted the road to the Place of Glory with the sharp stones of suffering and pain. Or why life is a struggle through the thorny forest of adversity.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:9-13)

Man Dreams

You might think this first sentence in the quote is false because you know your dreams are not reality. But what this sentence really means is that the world of matter is no more real than your dreams. That is not to say that the realm of matter doesn’t exist, but rather that it is the realm of illusion, and it is not at all what it seems to be. As the next sentence says, we see the shadow, but are blinded by the Light. You can compare this sentence to Plato’s allegorical tale of the people living in a cave who think that the shadows they see on the wall are reality. The shadows are not reality, and matter is not the true reality. Actual reality is the Spiritual Realm of Light created by the true God.

None Other Like God

There is only one True God, who is the God of Light, the God of Spirit. The god of matter is a false god. So are the many gods that have been created by humans in their minds. Even if millions believe in some of these gods, that doesn’t make them the True God. As the quote says, no other has the strength, wisdom, and will of the True God. It should mention Love since love is the greatest of God’s attributes, and the one God expects us to follow as well. Not Love of some who are similar to us, but love of all.

Kingdoms Brought Forth

It may be true that God has created many “kingdoms,” but all He creates is Spirit. Matter is the false creation made by the Demiurge.

His Ordinances

God’s Law is the highest law in both the spiritual and physical realms. Some men like to think they can make laws that override the Law of God, but they are wrong. While men may write laws that are contrary to the Laws of God, God still expects all of us to obey His Law.

His Thoughts are a Mystery

This is something you hear said in many conventional Churches. When someone asks why God does certain things, or allows evil things to happen, the pat answer is that Man cannot understand the reasoning of God. That is true for those who try to understand Him with their physical brain-mind. But those who make the effort to awaken and develop their spiritual faculties will eventually reach a level of consciousness that puts them into direct contact with God. When that happens, God’s thoughts will no longer be a mystery.

Road of Sharp Stones

It is true that the path of enlightenment is not smooth or straight. It is a difficult path for two reasons. One is that if we are to be agents of God on Earth, we have to be strong, and facing adversity helps us develop that strength, much like lifting weights helps us develop muscular strength. The other reason is that the demonic agents of the Demiurge do not want us to develop our Spiritual Self, so they put obstacles in our path. We should not let those “sharp stones” turn us away from developing our Spiritual Self.




When One Sees with Clarity and Understanding

“Wherever the sun shines or the wind blows; wherever there is an eye to see with clarity or an ear to hear with understanding, a mind to receive and assimilate, there let the greater way of life be made known and the maxims of Truth be honored and obeyed.

“Written for the elect by the Master of Mysteries, once Overseer of Harvests and Recorder of Taxes. Guardians of Tombs and Upholder of Royal Decrees, Beloved of the High Gods and the gods. Keeper of the Secrets of the Highest God, Lesser Lord of Jubilees and Grand Scribe of the Sacred Writings. One born into the house of a false god, whom he rejected, Distributor of Barley Seed and Master of the Great Sanctuary. Chief of Seers and Guardian of the Great Mysteries. Watcher at the Sacred Shrine and

Defender of the Lakeland and the Gates. Inspector of the Courtyard of the Sacred Being, Guardian of the Hidden Records and Servant of the Secret Temple, Messenger of the True God. Third Begotten Son of an enlightened father, a Magistrate of a goodly city. Son of a gentle lady Sistrum bearer and mistress of the song-stresses in the Temple of the Twofold God. Now one whose name is obliterated by unchallengeable decree, but once a man of goodstanding in this country, whose estate remains to this day.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:1:6-7)

Wherever the Sun Shines

It is not by accident that the sun is the first thing mentioned here. The ancient priests of Egypt were aware of the importance of the sun and its connection to spiritual awakening and growth. As was standard with spiritual knowledge, they never say it right out, but just hint at it or use an allegory.

Greater Way be Known

The Greater way of life is that of spiritual development. Anyone can develop a reasonable life in the material world, but it takes special individuals to be able to awaken and develop the Greater Way of spiritual Knowledge and Truth.

Written for the Elect

The author of the quote doesn’t directly say what was written for the elect, but included in his long list of titles for this person is “Grand Scribe of the Sacred Writings.” From that, we know that what was written for the elect is the Sacred Writings that help people awaken and develop their spiritual Self. Much of these ancient writings were lost, especially when the library of Alexandria was burned down. Fortunately, Cosolargy has been able to regain much of those teachings and modernize them for a new age and new people. It is still true that they are written for the elect, but with the Sun of Righteousness shining down on us now, it is becoming easier for people to awaken and become members of the elect.

Guardian of the Hidden Records

One who was born in the house of a false god, rejected that god and turned to Truth. It isn’t clear if being “born in the house of a false god” means that his family followed a false god, or that he was a priest at a temple for the false god. What matters is that he rejected that false god. He became, among other things, “ Chief of Seers and Guardian of the Great Mysteries.” Those are impressive titles, and he must have shown spiritual greatness to earn them. He was probably the equivalent of a real saint, such as St. Francis of Assisi. The quote adds that he had enlightened parents. That goes along with the teachings of Cosolargy that say that each generation that follows the teachings will have children who will be potentially even more spiritually developed. That doesn’t mean we can’t develop our spiritual faculties if our parents were not spiritual, just that it will be a little harder for us.




The New Pharaoh Worshiped the Spirit Behind the Sun

 

“The new form of worship introduced by this Pharaoh was simple enough. Outwardly, it had all the symbols and ceremonial beloved by the people, with sufficient substance in it to attract the spiritually inclined. It could have formed a fitting gateway to the Path of the True Way, another light guiding men along the road to the embarkation port for Truth. Behind the symbols and ceremonial, the Pharaoh worshipped the Spirit behind the Sun, the Spirit of Light and Life as a direct, fully conscious member

outflowing from The Great God Behind All. The king, however, being cut off in the midst of his instruction, perceived the road but dimly. There is little doubt of his genuine desire to bring the True light to the people, but he was not wise enough to know, firstly, that one who brings light must be one in whom light burns brightly, and secondly, that the multitude cannot be exposed to its unveiled brightness with impunity. The king, severed from his weaknesses, could have been a truly great ruler, a steady light before the eyes of men, the guide to a new age for the people of the land. But he was one

who cast heavily on both arms of the balances.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:44)

New Form Of Worship

The Pharaoh is not the same one mentioned in previously posted quotes. He is the son, or grandson, of that Pharaoh. He introduces a new religion to the people that is based on worshiping the Spirit found in the Spiritual Sun. Because this Pharaoh didn’t complete his training in the Mysteries, what was taught in this new religion was not the complete path to enlightenment, though it was a definite improvement over the materialistic religions of the previous Pharaoh.

Symbols and Ceremony

It wasn’t just important to give the people a religion with symbols and ceremonies they were familiar with, but that the symbols and ceremonies were one that promoted real spiritual growth. As the quote says, this religion could have formed a gateway between the false religions and the complete Spiritual teaching of the real Mystery Schools.

Spirit Behind the Sun

There is much confusion about this with modern historians. Most of them take the simplistic approach of saying that if the people were taught to look toward the sun, they were sun worshipers. This quote makes it clear that they were not worshiping the physical sun, or even the Spiritual Sun, but were worshiping the Spirit behind (or beyond) the Spiritual Sun, which is God. You can think of it like this: the Spiritual Sun acts as a portal or window between the physical world and the realm of Spirit, where God and the Angels dwell.

The Multitude Cannot Be Exposed

While the Pharaoh tried to teach the full mysteries to the general population (probably not including slaves), the quote makes it clear that it is actually a good thing that he didn’t know enough to do that. To expose people to the Great Light of God before they are ready for it can frighten them to turn away from the Light, or even worse, to use the Light for evil purposes. That is why a true spiritual school, much like the Great Mystery Schools of ancient times, accepts people on a trial period and teaches only limited Truth until their trial period is over, and they are ready to move to the more advanced teachings. Even today, some people don’t understand this and drop out of their spiritual training after a year or two, so they get limited results. To get the complete results, you need to stay with the training to the end.




Pharaoh Disclosed Some Spiritual Mysteries

 

 

“It was the wife of Pharaoh who influenced him to disclose some of the mysteries, which, since the time just mentioned, had been completely withdrawn and very carefully hidden. Thus, though the forces of evil had prevailed in the land they had not uncovered the Inner Shrine of the Sacred Mysteries. Such mysteries as they had discovered proved of little value to them and were soon so distorted and perverted as to be useless. The great secret of how to penetrate the barrier between the two spheres of mortal and spirit was still completely secured. If nothing else, its very dangers would

have safeguarded it.

“Actually, though it is said that Secret Mysteries were disclosed, this did not happen. All that did happen was that Pharaoh used the knowledge he had to try and give the people a greater insight into the way of light, the True Way. As is ever done, he veiled the all-consuming brilliance of Truth. leaving just sufficient glimmer to light the way, to become a beacon. Nabihaton, himself saw the Truth but dimly, for though he tried, he failed to meet the tests of an Enlightened One. Perhaps it was this that inclined him away from the faithful. How many, when they discover what the knowledge of Truth entails, falter on the path?”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:36-37)

His Wife Influenced the Pharaoh

The fact that Pharaoh’s wife influenced him to reveal some of the spiritual secrets that he had learned from the mystery schools indicates that she was probably initiated into some of those mysteries herself. If not, then it is likely that the pharaoh had revealed some to her. This does show, as the quote says, that the Great Knowledge of Spiritual development was withdrawn from the people and hidden, as it remained until quite recently.

Forces of Evil Prevailed

The Forces of Evil are those who practice materialism and consider it superior to spirituality. The demons and devils know better, but when they whisper into the ears of men and women, they lie to promote the material realm where they maintain some limited control over people. They also tried to uncover the Sacred Mysteries, but only succeeded in learning the most limited teachings, such as chanting and meditation, which are useful, but do not awaken and develop the Soul.

Barrier Between the Spheres

 

The barrier between the spheres of matter and spirit is a real thing. It is sometimes called a veil, or veils, and the original story of the Phoenix had that bird flying up over the sun each morning, and spreading its wings to block out certain frequencies of light. The good news is that the barriers are being lifted in this age so that more can awaken to their spiritual Self, and the need to develop it.

The Pharaoh Gave Insight

The Pharaoh did not reveal the mysteries to the general population, but he did give them enough information to encourage them to seek the Way of Light, the True way. Today, we can reveal that the Way to the True Light is in a Spiritual form of sun-gazing, where one looks primarily at the Spiritual Sun rather than the physical one (never stare directly at the sun). You do have to be a student of a legitimate Spiritual School, such as Cosolargy, to know how to do that correctly. You also need to have the proper attitude of love and humility.

 




The Enlightened Gained Strength in Egypt

“Nabihaton rose to rule while still very young, and though it is said that he died in the grip of a demon, with blood welling up from within his mouth, the other version, that he died a tombless wanderer, seems more probable, for it is so written on the Tablets of Amon.

“In the days of his father, the Enlightened Ones had regained strength in the land of Egypt, though they remained a hidden force, and all their deeds were secret. Nevertheless, they were not unknown to the

priesthoods, which were then strong, though they were regarded with much disfavour. In those days, the charges made against the Enlightened Ones were that they stirred up the lowly against the powerful. That they tried to turn the land over, to change that, which had ever been. Therefore, those who knew

The Great God dwelt in seclusion and hiding. Their names were unknown, their faces unseen.

“The mother of Nabihaton was Towi, one of the Chosen Ones. In those days there were still four ranks of the faithful: the Twice Born, the Enlightened Ones, the Chosen Ones and the Dwellers in Light. Among the Dwellers in Light, there were Seekers in Light and Laborers in Light. Even then as now. The wife of Pharaoh, though of high blood, was no more than half Egyptian; her ways were strange. While he had still not come to manhood, the mother of Pharaoh taught him the ways of light. She revealed many of its secrets, probably without proper authority, though this cannot be known. However, though the Leader of Light in Egypt was never far removed from the Pharaoh, only during days in the far distant past were the kings numbered among the enlightened. Only in the days of true greatness, days long gone down into dust, days long forgotten in the land.

-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:33-35)

Nabihaton

Who this leader was is unknown. A Google search for the name turns up nothing. It is interesting that there are two conflicting stories about his death. The tale about him dying in the “grip of a demon” is probably made up by his enemies and the enemies of enlightenment. As the author of the quote says, the most probable story is that he died a wanderer. There is no explanation of how a Pharaoh became a wanderer.

The Enlightened Ones

Here we suddenly jump back a generation to the time of Nabihaton’s father. The enlightened people, those who are today called “woke” by materialists, had regained strength but remained secret. Until just a few decades ago, that is how it remained. Mystery schools operated in secret, and their teachings were never to be written down or spoken of in public. The author adds that they were well known to the priesthood of that age, which tells us the priests themselves were probably among the enlightened, unlike the vast majority of priests and preachers today.

They Stirred up the Lowly

That sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Today, we see many who are opposed to the “woke” people because they think they will stir up the masses into rebellion. They don’t understand that the Enlightened are all about peace and love, so while they may not like certain governments or elected officials, they never promote violence against them.

Four Ranks

The mystery schools of this period had four ranks within them. The spiritual schools of today may differ, but most have a hierarchy of ranks. In Cosolargy, because we are a church as well as a spiritual school, we use the ranks that are common in Christian churches. Some exceptions are in the highest levels, where older men and women can be chosen to be part of the Order of Matriarchs or the Order of Patriarchs. The people in those levels are known as Reverend Fathers or Reverend Mothers.

The Mother of Pharaoh Taught Him

The quote says the mother of Nabihaton taught him some of the teachings of the Mystery Schools. This is a proper thing to do, and is part of the teachings of Cosolargy. Each generation of enlightened people whose parents were also enlightened is more spiritual than the one before. That is why Bishop Savoy Senior chose his sons to succeed him rather than other individuals who had been in the community longer but were first-generation.

Enlighten Kings

Not only in Egypt, but in other ancient civilizations, the kings were often among the enlightened. In many cases where they were not enlightened, they had advisors who were. This allowed such rulers to rule justly, honestly, and with love, rather than with greed and hatred.

 




Temples of the Dark Gods

 

“In the temples dedicated to many different gods, the forms of worship were subtly changed to serve another end. The servants of the Dark Ones were able to display wonders before the multitude, but these wonders were works of deceit. They revealed mysteries, but the mysteries were not the most sacred ones; these were never known by any likely to betray them. The thoughts of the people were poisoned. All manner of rites aimed at satisfying carnal cravings were introduced. Simple, satisfying

answers were given to content the hearts of the people, and all manner of rewards were promised. For payment made, men were promised forgiveness of even the most grievous wickednesses. It is well that the ears of the dumb gods were unhearing, or they would have been deafened by the clamor of pleas for petty things. The servants of the Dark Ones left not even the dead to rest in peace, but sought to satisfy the living with words from beyond the tomb. Even the blood of men was offered in dark places, while in others of greater evil, men, yes, and even children, were tormented to give pleasure. Such is the nature of men when the scales weigh down against righteousness.”

-the Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:25)

Temples of Many Gods

Ancient Egypt had many temples devoted to various gods. While not the True God, most of these god were at least on the right side and worshiping them may have benefited the people who were not ready for a real spiritual awakening.

Worship Changed

In the time when Darkness came to Egypt, the practices in these temples were gradually changed by the Dark Forces and Beings so that they served the Dark ones, especially the Demiurge who created the realm of matter. Some of these Dark Ones claimed to know the ancient Mysteries, but the mysteries they taught were false ones aimed at making people more materialistic.

Carnal Cravings

The Dark Ones encourage carnal cravings. Prejudices and fears of many sorts were also introduced, and people were encouraged to act on their fears and prejudices, often violently. The people were promised that such behavior would be forgiven, much as some churches and religions today forgive those who participate in wars, book banning, and other forms of controlling others.

Clamor of Pleas

This is something that is still practiced by many today. They pray for a new house, a new car, a new job, or other material things without realizing that by doing so, they are praying to and empowering the Demiurge and his demonic minions. The proper way to pray to the True God is to say “Thy will be done, in me and through me.” We are not smarter than God, so we need to let Him made the decisions. We need to learn what God’s Great Plan is for saving the earth from Darkness, and do what we can to help make it happen. God could do it all by Himself, but he wants us to participate as he created us to be co-creators along with Him. If you are hired by a construction company to help build a building, you have to follow the architect’s plan, not your own. It is the same with God’s Plan for bringing a new Golden Age of Spirit to our world.

Blood Was Offered

One of the most evil things that the Dark Ones introduced was blood sacrifice. As the quote says, the blood of men (and women) was offered in evil ceremonies. Even torture of adults and children was used to satisfy the evil cravings of the Dark Ones. We must all learn that the True God has never asked for blood sacrifice, for torture, or for anyone to be killed on His behalf. Only the Demiurge asks for such things.

 




How the Flame of Glory Died in Egypt

 

 

“Men may ask, in days yet to dawn, how it came about that the flame of glory died in Egypt, how her grandeur passed away into dust. How, when man had climbed so high, he could climb no longer. But there is no simple cause, the seeds of degeneration lie dormant in every nation, in every man. As the man, so the nation. These seeds are as weeds, which spring up when the cultivated soil is neglected, when it is tended with indifference. The road to greatness is, for nations as for each man, a hard and stony one. Greatness is a gift requiring constant effort to retain; when men decline the effort, greatness departs. Greatness and glory will abide only in the habitations of the worthy. They depart when no longer treated as honored guests. What are Justice and Truth today? They are no more than words mumbled by the lips, but once, they were an inextinguishable flame burning within the hearts of men. What is left of honor when men cease to regard it as more than an empty symbol? It is like the lyre in the hands of a man with blistered fingers, or as the flute played by one with scabby lips. The instruments remain, but where are the musicians? Without the musicians, where are the melodies?”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:19)

The Flame of Glory

What is called “The Flame of Glory” in the quote from the Kolbrin Bible is just another way of saying Spiritual Light. We must remember that until only a little over a century ago, Light and fire were considered the same thing, as the only way to get light was with fires and torches. The highly developed spiritual people knew that Spiritual Light was something very different from the flames of a torch, but few others did.

The quote says men “had climbed so high, he could climb no longer.” That is only true of those who joined the Mystery Schools of the day and developed their spiritual Self to its full potential. But there were many people, probably the majority, who made no such effort, and it is through those people that the forces of darkness often work to bring down the spiritual.

Seeds of Degeneration

It is true that the seeds of degeneration are in all of us and can come out when we least expect it. Even people who are well along in their spiritual development can fall victim to the demons that whisper in their ears. That is why it is now—and always has been—important to be part of a spiritual community rather than trying to go it alone. As part of a community, we can help each other and protect each other from the beings of darkness. Also, as the quote says, this degeneration can happen when we neglect “the cultivated soil”. In other words, when we don’t practice our spiritual development techniques with regularity.

Justice and Truth

The quote says that Justice and Truth became empty words, and honor is an empty symbol. Certainly, many can quote a dictionary definition of those words, but they don’t really understand them. And this is as much a problem today as it was in the time that “The Flame of Glory” died in Egypt. Many think that if the majority believes something, it makes it true, but that is rarely the case. Likewise, many think that because we have lawyers and judges that we have justice, but that is also seldom true. We even refer to the justices of the Supreme Court in The United States as liberal or conservative. To do so says that they are making decisions based on political views rather than on what is right, so they are not practicing Justice. Fortunately, we are now at the beginning of an age when all of that can change, and the Flame of Glory will rule mankind again. We can all hope that happens soon, and do what we can to help.




Reflect Greatness on Earth

 

“Be ever above price. One worthy of the greatness you reflect on Earth, one ever above mundane things. Be as the sun, whose brightness seeks out every nook and cranny and pours light into their hidden gloom. Be one who shines among men to lighten their days. Spread uprightness and honesty

across the two lands, as the sunshine spreads brightness and warmth. Cover the land with goodness, as the rising waters cover it with fertility. Fill the land with strength, as the north wind fills it with contentment.

“Guard Your heart, as a father guards his daughter, as a mother guards her baby, for it is the stronghold of integrity. Be vigilant concerning every deed, for the eyes of men are ever upon you, the life you live is not yours alone. You are the image, which men will imitate, and you are before every eye. The blowing wind will open its ear at your windows and spread wide its report. The flowing waters beside your door will uncover their eyes and carry what they behold through the land. Your position makes

you a supporting pillar of the government; if the pillars be rotten, the roof crashes. Your responsibilities will beset your life with care; the road you journey is stony and encompassed with pitfalls and thorns. The cup you drink will be more often bitter than sweet.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:34:15-16)

Worthy of Greatness

The greatness this quote is dealing with is not political or business greatness, but spiritual greatness. As we awaken spiritually and develop our spiritual faculties, we are obligated to help others do the same in various ways. One way is simply by reflecting some of that Spiritual Greatness, or Light. We do that in two ways. In a more general way, we send some of our light out into the world filled with thoughts of peace, joy, love, and other positive attributes. The second way is to send such Light to specific individuals who request it, or who we know need such help. As the quote says, be like the sun sending out Light into every nook and cranny.

Above Mundane Things

The spiritual student must be above mundane things in order to develop spiritually to any significant degree. That doesn’t mean that we must dress in rags and live in a cave. We can have a reasonable amount of material goods, such as a proper house and clothes, as long as we don’t get so attached to those things that we start putting them ahead of our spiritual development. Cosolargy teaches that we must put God’s requirements above all other things, and that means putting the spiritual before the material.

Cover the Land With Goodness

Almost everyone agrees that we should do good all the time. The problem is that many can’t tell the good from the neutral, or even evil deeds. The worse example of this is that many have been tricked by the Dark Beings into believing that wars are sometimes a good thing. There are time when a country must go to war to protect its people and territory, but even then, war is not good, only necessary. True goodness means showing kindness, empathy, and generosity to others. It also means that we should try to do work that does not harm people. For example, a spiritual person should not be working in a cigarette factory.

Guard Your Heart

As most of us know by now, when the ancient writings talk about the heart, they really mean the Soul, as the heart is often considered to be the location of the Soul. We can guard the heart by wearing our sacred thread with the gems or stones on it that have been programmed to protect us against dark forces and beings. We can also protect our souls by asking for the aid of God. And we can protect it by being part of a community of like-minded individuals, as we are in Cosolargy. While in this time, we may not be supporting pillars of the government, we are supporting pillars of God’s Truth and Wisdom. And the prophecies of the Community tell us that a time will come when leaders will consult us as did the great leaders of long ago consult the Mystery Schools of the time.




The Brotherhood of the Chosen Ones of Light

 

“Kings came and departed to their place. They ministered unto the people according to the light revealed unto them. Most knew only the veiled Truth. but in olden times, they were better kings than in later days. There were long generations of men who walked with wisdom, and among them was the generation of the First Great Master, he who established the Brotherhood of the Chosen Ones of Light. In those days men learned the rites for coming forth by day, but the inner wisdom was not declared before them. Yet they were days of wisdom, skill and knowledge, but the knowledge of the spirit still languished, and the Sacred Secrets remained hidden. In fact never have they been revealed to the multitude of men, for never has the multitude of men been worthy.

“Now men say that all the wisdom of those so wise availed them nothing, have they not long gone down into dust? Have they not departed to the land of no return, to the place that may or may not be? Where is their memorial? Where their shrines? Can even their tombs be seen?

“They say among themselves, as it will ever be said when men are deluded by their mortality, “The life of man is short and uncertain; the one certainty in life being the approach of death. What awaits hereafter, no man can tell, for no man is known to have returned from out of his tomb. We are all the children of accident and mischance, and in a short generation shall be as though we had never been. Our bodies shall harden and be ground to dust, and the fire of our hearts shall burn itself out and turn to ashes. Our shade will hover for its day and then be wafted away on the wind, and as the waters come and go, our name will pass from the memories of men forever. The works of man shall pass away like the shadow of a cloud upon the sand, and his life will vanish like the dew of morning that disappears in the heat of the rising sun. What are the days of man, but the shadow of a shadow, and he passes away to an end from which there is no returning. He goes out through a door which is immediately shut, and there is no way back.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:34:5-7)

Kings Ministered According to the Light

In some ancient Societies, kings and others in powerful positions were either students of the spiritual Mystery Schools, or they were advised by students of such schools. So rather than being the materialistic rulers we see today, they were able to rule with the understanding that people have an immortal spirit as well as a mortal body.

Coming Forth By Day

The sacred knowledge was never revealed to the masses or written down where they could find it, so rather than saying that the awakened individuals looked at the sun, they hint at it by saying they came forth by day. They may not have been given all the Sacred Wisdom, as the quote indicates, but as it also says, they were given enough to develop Wisdom and Knowledge.

Wisdom for Nothing

Some people did say that spiritual Wisdom was for nothing because it didn’t help in the material world. Some may have developed that attitude because they were not accepted as students in the Mystery Schools. Others simply felt that it was pointless to study something that didn’t help them in their lives in the “real world”. It didn’t help them grow their crops, it didn’t help them build buildings, it didn’t help them run a business. But such beliefs are false. Some of the most successful business people were successful because of their spiritual insights. The development of new food crops can often be attributed to awakened individuals. And some of the great architects were very spiritual people. And then consider the arts. In sculpture, painting, and music, some of the best artists were spiritual people.

Bodies Turn to Ashes

This part of the beliefs of materialists is true, but it denies that there is an afterlife. For those who choose to fully embrace the realm of matter and ignore their spirit, that is true. But it doesn’t have to be true for everyone. Those who awaken and develop their spiritual faculties while still in the physical realm will be able to move on to an afterlife in spiritual form and continue their development until they reach the highest level of Consciousness and arrive in Heaven.
