“Something Beyond the Physical and Intellectual”

 

 

“There are certain centers in the mental being of Man from which may come light regarding the existence of the Absolute and higher order of Beings. In fact, from these centers come to man the part of his mental ‘feelings’ that he calls ‘the religious instinct’ or intuition.’ Man does not arrive at that underlying consciousness of ‘Something Beyond’ by means of his intellect—it is the glimmer of light coming from the higher centers of the Self. He notices these gleams of light, but not understanding them, he proceeds to elect elaborate theological and creedal structures to account for them. The work of the intellect, however, always lacks that feeling that the intuition itself possesses. True religion, no matter under what name it may masquerade, comes from the ‘heart’, and is not comforted or satisfied with these intellectual explanations.” ~William Walker Atkinson

 

Higher Centers

“While Mr. Atkinson says this “light” that makes us believe in the Absolute, and in worlds and beings beyond the physical, is a mental faculty, he does says it is from higher centers. It is not, he quickly points out, coming from the intellect. While the intellect is certainly useful on the material plane, it knows nothing of the spiritual, the “Something Beyond”. This faculty is not in the brain-mind at all, but is coming from the spirit and soul. Even in those of us who have not bothers to awaken those faculties, they seem to seep through a little anyway. When we do awaken those faculties, intentionally or accidentally, they will seep through even more.”

“Equality in Community Guided by Divine Light”

 

 

 

“In days gone by, you have had leaders to guide you, but before them were even greater leaders, whom you have not known. The inspiration of their word is something that must never be lost; it must be preserved for all time.
“You must establish a community, where men can live together and where they can enjoy the companionship of women. Men always benefit from united effort, but this is inseparable from necessary restrictions. Let the restrictions imposed be such that no man can feel resentment because of the restraints set upon him. Let the only ordinances and restriction imposed be founded on the nature of man and upon spiritual and moral values.
“We must seek to assure freedom of action for every man and woman, so long as it does not prejudice the equal rights of others. … The rewards must go to the men who are best in all ways. …We must to provide for the sick and helpless, for the old and incapable. … We must make men high-minded and above all pettiness. … We must be a guiding light before the eyes of all men.” ~The Kolbrin Bible (SOF:1:6-11)

 

Great Leaders

There have been many great leaders in the world of various types. There are great political leaders, great business leaders, great leaders in science and art. The greatest leaders of all, however, are the great spiritual leaders. They are the greatest because they care for our immortal spirits and souls rather than our mortal bodies. They are great because they believe in equality.

“Pythagorean Y and the Road Less Traveled”

 

 

“The famous Pythagorean Y signified the power of choice and was used in the Mysteries as emblematic of the Forking of the Ways. The central step separated into two parts, one branching to the right and the other to the left. The branch to the right was called Divine Wisdom and the one to the left Earthly Wisdom. …The neophyte must then choose whether he will take the left-handed path and, following the dictates of his lower nature, enter upon a span of folly and thoughtlessness …. or whether he will take the right-handed road and … regain union with the immortals in the superior spheres.
“It is probably that Pythagoras obtained his concept of the Y from the Egyptians, who included [it] in certain of their initiatory rituals.” ~Manly P. Hall

Pythagorean Y

“I don’t think the Pythagorean Y is as famous today as Mr. Hall indicates, but the idea of the forking of the ways certainly is. Many, however, think of this decision symbol as representing something much simpler like deciding which profession to go into or who to marry. While we make many decision in our lives, only one is the Y. That one decision is whether we want to follow the path of materialism or the path of spirituality. All other decisions are secondary. And I have no doubt that poet Robert Frost was really talking about this in his “The Road Not Taken” where the wise traveler eventually chose the “one less traveled”. The path less traveled is the spiritual path.”

“Soul’s Light and God’s Presence”

 

 

“God is present in all, even in those who do not recognize Him; but men flee from God, they step out of Him, or, to speak more correctly, out of themselves. They cannot grasp Him before whom they are thus fleeing, and, having lost themselves, they hunt after other gods. But if the soul progresses on the road to perfection, begins to realize her own higher state of existence, to know that the fountain of life is within herself. … She will see herself even as the pure Divine Light itself, as a God, radiant in Beauty, but becoming dark again as her light is rendered heavy if it approaches the shadows of the material plane.” ~Franz Hartmann

 

God Within and Without

“Yes we truly can find God within. We can also find Him without. If God is everywhere, He is within and without and we need to look in both areas to find Him and know Him.

“Many men (and women) do flee from God, then complain they can’t find Him. Mr. Hartmann says this is really fleeing from ourselves. What he means is that we are fleeing from our true selves, our spirits and souls, so as to justify excessive involvement in the world of matter. But hiding under the bed doesn’t make the monster go away and hiding in materialism won’t make the spiritual realms go away.”

“New Birth and Being a Temple of God”

 

“Now here we may understand what our New-Birth, or Regeneration, is; and how we may become, and continue to be, the temple of God; though in this Life’s Time, according to the outward Humanity, we are sinful mortal men. Christ, in the human essence hath broken up and opened the gates of our inward Heavenly Humanity, which was shut up in Adam; so that nothing is now wanting, but that the soul draw its Will out of the vanity of the corrupted flesh, and bring it into this open gate in the Spirit of Christ. Great and strong earnestness is needed her. …. For to know only is not faith; but an hunger and thirst after that which I want.” ~Jacob Boehme

A New Birth

“When spiritual leaders like Boehme speak of a new birth, or rebirth, they are not talking about reincarnation. They are talking about a spiritual birth of sorts. Since the spirit and soul are immortal, they are not truly born, or reborn. They are simply awakened from a deep coma-like state that is similar to death. So when those spiritual faculties are awakened, it is often referred to as a New Birth or Rebirth.

“Boehme says this new birth is necessary to be a temple of God, and he is correct. Foolish people think they can be a temple of God no matter what they do, what they say, or what they think. Nonsense. God will not dwell in the physical body or in the brain-mind. He dwells only in the spirit and soul. Therefore, they only way to know God, and be one with God, is to awaken those spiritual faculties and use them.”

“Creation of Light, Creation of Matter and Death”

 

“About creation, I wish to confess that our Lord God is the creator and author, but not of all elements of the world, which are impotent and empty, and as Paul said in Galatians, ‘how can you now turn back to the impotent and empty elements under which you suffer a new slavery?’ …
“Even less can we admit that our lord is the creator and author of death, and of the things that are, by their essence, in death, because, as it is written in the book of Wisdom, ‘God has not made death, and he does not rejoice at the loss of the living.’ There exists, then, with no doubt whatsoever, another creature of factor, who is the principle and cause of death.” ~The Book of the Two Principles

Creation of Matter

“If a miner takes iron ore out of the ground and later that iron is used to make a gun, would the miner be considered a murderer if that gun was used to kill? Of course not. If a child pornographer makes photos using a Canon camera, is Canon guilty of child pornography? Certainly not.

“Yet many say that since God created the raw materials of the Cosmos, He is therefore creator of all. God is, by their logic, responsible for all that happens with that raw material. They say there can be no evil, for that would make God the creator of evil. There can be no sin, for that would make God the creator of sin.”

“Spiritual Perception and Man’s Nature”

 

“It is of the utmost importance that men should be instructed about their own nature, their origin, and their ultimate destiny. … Spiritual perception is a power, which cannot be imparted, but which must be gained by effort. If a person does not know that such a power exists, of if he cannot realize its usefulness, he will make no efforts to attain that state, his mind will remain without illumination, and he will not be able to see the truth. He may feel the existence of the truth, like a man may feel love for an unknown ideal, … but he whose mind is illuminated sees the object of his love, the light which illumines the world.” ~Franz Hartmann

Man’s Nature

“The nature of man is a question that is often debated, sometimes with great fervor. Materialists who can’t accept that anything exists beyond the material realm will say man has evolved from simple animals. We are the hairless beach apes of Sherman’s Lagoon. To others, however, man has an eternal spirit and soul.”

“Wholly Light, Wholly True, Wholly Spirit”

 

 

“On a certain day a pearl did I take up, my brethren. I saw in it mysteries pertaining to the kingdom; semblances and types of the majesty. It became a fountain, and I drank out of it mysteries of the Son.
“I put it, my brethren, upon the palm of my hand, that I might examine it. I went to look at it on one side, and it proved faces on all sides. I found out that the Son was incomprehensible, since he is wholly Light.
“In its brightness I beheld the Bright One who cannot be clouded, and in its pureness, a great mystery. … In its undividedness I saw the Truth which is undivided.” ~St Ephraim the Syrian

 

Mysteries Pertaining to the Kingdom

“Yes, looking upon the Pearl of Wisdom can reveal many mysteries, many secrets. Truths that are hidden from most people. St. Ephraim says it became a fountain out of which he drank mysteries, knowledge. I think we can safely assume that the mysteries that were revealed to him were spiritual mysteries.”

“Sun’s Impact on Man and the World and Beyond”

“Warmth creates certain forms in people. Light also creates certain forms. Life has certain forms as well. Every flow creates its own particular forms. The warmth and light of the Sun have a big impact first on the religious state of people as well as on science. You shall strive to preserve this warmth and light within yourselves. …
“Fire is often interpreted as a destructive element, but though it truly destroys, it can be constructive as well. It is the fire descending from above, from the Sun, that builds our planet and our bodies. It is this fire that imparts thoughts and aspirations in us. Everything gets frozen without fire.” ~Biensa Douno

Forms in People

“While Douno doesn’t say it here, it is implied that if certain forms are created by fire, warmth, and light, very different forms are created by cold and darkness. We, of course, aspire to be those forms that come from warmth and Light.”
