“’In a place beyond uttermost place,
in a track without shadow of trace,
Soul and body transcending,
I live in the soul of my Loved One anew.’
Thus cries the great Sufi poet, Jalalu’ddin; and the suggestion which his words convey is perhaps as close as speech can come to what Ruysbroeck meant byOnwise. The change of consciousness which initiates man into this inner yet unbounded world—the world that is ‘unwalled,’ to use his own favorite metaphor—is the essence of contemplation; which consists, not in looking at strange mysteries, but in movement to fresh levels, shut to the analytic intellect, …
‘It has no attributes,
And here all the works of reason fail,
It is not God,
But it is the Light whereby we see Him.’” ~Evelyn Underhill & Ruysbroeck

“It is indeed difficult to describe spiritual things using languages designed to describe the very different physical world. This is one reason why all great spiritual teachers say such things must be experienced, not just taught.

“What the great poet meant by a place beyond place is an example of this.”

“The Divine Spark does not derive from the Solar Logos but is conditioned by the evolution of the Solar logos until the cycle of its Solar development is completed. This takes place when the Individuality, as a result of certain evolutionary processes in the Solar Logoidal jurisdiction comes to the point where it need no longer stay in that jurisdiction but is able to recognize its own true being.” ~Dion Fortune

“The Divine Spark doesn’t come to us from the Solar Logos, but from God. It is found in our soul. But like a gas heater that won’t work if you don’t light the pilot light, that Divine Fire won’t burn if you don’t light the pilot light by awakening your dormant spiritual faculties.

“The Solar Logos is found in the Spiritual Sun or Sun of Righteousness and, if we want to benefit from it, we need to take in the light from the Spiritual Sun where it is found.”

“You have long been like a child tearing up the petals of flowers in order to make a mosaic on the garden path; and the result of this murderous diligence you mistook for a knowledge of the world. When the bits fitted with unusual exactitude, you called it science. Now at last you have perceived the greater truth and loveliness of the living plant from which you broke them; have, in fact, entered into direct communion with it, ‘united’ with its reality. But this very recognition … must entail for you a consciousness of deeper realities, which, as yet, you have not touched. … A mere cataloging of all the plants … will never give you access to the Unity, the Fact, whatever it may be, which manifests itself through them. To suppose that it can is the cardinal error of the ‘nature mystic’: an error parallel with that of the psychologist who looks for the soul in ‘psychic states.’” ~Evelyn Underhill

“A Surface Consciousness

“This quote from Underhill sounds mostly negative, but it has a positive side to it. She starts by complaining about the scientist who is like a child, tearing petals off a flower, arranging them in patterns, and thinking he now understands nature. It sounds foolish, but I remember reading a few years ago that scientists determine what nutrients are in foods by burning them and studying the ash left behind. That means that any nutrient that gets burned up in the process doesn’t get recognized. Hopefully, they have learned better and no longer use that method.

“She then adds a positive side to it by saying that the spiritual or mystical student, who recognizes that the whole living plant is more important than studying the chemical composition of the petals of the flower has learned an important lesson, and indeed he has.”

“As you learn to experience the consciousness-and-energy world, you also learn to perceive and work with the fields that are inside every physical form—the inner blueprints. You experience how these fields give rise to forms, and how you can easily, and almost instantly, change the form of something by adjusting the inner blueprint. … We can serve each other by keeping our own field vibrating at the level of the heart (or home frequency or soul), and others will tend to match us.” ~Penney Peirce

“Most people think that the world around them is shared with everyone, that we all see the same thing, share the same feeling, and so on. The truth is that each of us lives in his own private world that overlaps other peoples’ worlds, but is never completely identical.”

“Over and over again the great mystics tell us, not how they speculated, but how they acted. To them, the transition from the life of sense to the life of spirit is a formidable undertaking, which demands effort and consistancy. The paradoxical ‘quiet’ of the contemplative is but the outward stillness essential to inward work. Their favorite symbols are those of action. … ‘That we may attain to this true light and perfect knowledge … by hearsay, or by reading and study, … is not enough’ says Gerlac Petersen. ‘To know by estimation merely: but we must know by experience.’ so Mechthild of Magdeburg says, … ‘I see it with the eyes of my soul, and hear it with the ears of my eternal spirit.’ … True mystical achievement is the most complete and most difficult expression of life which is as yet possible to man.” ~Evelyn Underhill

“The Active Mystic

“Most people today visualize a mystic as some guru sitting on a mountain top in deep meditation doing virtually nothing but thinking and praying. Nothing could be further from the truth. The mystic, or spiritual adept, is a person of action. They don’t just contemplate things, they do them. They don’t wonder what they would be like if they awakened their innate, but dormant, spiritual faculties, they awaken them and experience a new life foreign to most of us.

“Thinking and meditating isn’t Enough

“Several decades ago, Positive Thinking was made popular. After a while, it faded away because many people found—to their horror and surprise—that think about it just wasn’t enough to make it real. One had to act also. In more recent times, we have what is essentially the same concept with new names.”

Akhenaten and Nefertiti bathed in the light of the Aten

“The Energy Stream Connecting the Eye to the Sun”
“Planet Earth’s habitat is the sun’s bubble, known as the heliosphere, and it is reasonable to suppose that all the matter in our solar system, from planets and asteroids to earthly life-forms, owes its origin to our very own star[i]. In a material sense then, the sun is our god, our source and provider. Ancient Egyptians and Greeks believed the sun we see is just the physical form of a higher ‘Intelligible or Spiritual Sun.’ Philo of Alexandria called it: “The Sun of the sun, the Intelligible object behind the object comprehensible by sense, and from invisible fountains he supplies the visible beams which our eyes behold.”[ii] In addition to the light, heat and solar winds the sun sends our way, the Greeks taught that our Psyche receives a more subtle, invisible life-force called Pneuma, which, along with rays of the light spectrum, enters the human being via the eyes.

“ Why is it important to be aware of this force? Simply put, tapping directly into the generator increases your energy supply and intensifies the light. Once linked by a powerful, unobstructed path of current, the circuit becomes complete. The output of the sun is the vivifying stream of life itself. And for the spiritually inclined seeker, illumination advances exponentially as you increase your exposure to the source and the intake of its light rays.”

“The soul knows what I know not. It sees into hidden places and understands deep mysteries. Let me know its nature better, that it may instruct me in wisdom. My soul swells with gratitude towards the Bounteous Being, who causes all things to be, which fulfill all desires. My God is not graven in marble or stone. He is not shaped in wood or cast in copper. He has neither offering nor ministrations. My God is a god of quiet places and silences. He is found where the wild winds blow and the gay flowers blossom, away from the habitations of men. He is not worshiped in temples, and His praises are not sunk by the unthinking multitude. … He has no painted shrine, no building fashioned by man could contain Him. Hail to the Supreme Power and Spirit!” ~The Kolbrin Bible (SCL:21:9)

“The Kolbrin Bible does contain some odd things, but also some beautiful ones as in the quote above. It does require some spiritual knowledge and understanding to make sense of it, though. So lets break it down.”

“Practicing unified field attention is a powerful way to accelerate your transformation, and seeing how nonphysical fields connect intimately with physical reality is extremely helpful. Here are a few ways you can practice unifying your two realities:

• Treat the world as if it’s conscious. As often as possible, remember that the world is—right now, at this very minute—precipitating out of a field of consciousness-and-energy. And that living consciousness-and-energy exists through every part of it—through you and even through inanimate objects. …
• Perceive with your whole self. It’s not just your eyes and brain that are attending to life. As often as possible, … shift to your body and cells to see what they’re noticing, then shift to your heart—or liver, or kneecap—to see what it knows. … Occasionally, stretch out and expand your sphere to take in more of the unified field. …
• Practice the art of correlation. When you experience frustration in the outer world, for example, you always experience a matching contraction in your inner world of emotion and thought. …
• Read your reality for deeper meaning. Practicing the art of correlation leads you to guidance. For example, in the outer reality, your car has a flat tire. In the inner world, you see the flat tire relates to your hesitation to move forward on a new project.” ~Penney Peirce

“The list Ms. Peirce has provided is really more of a hierarchy with the other items all being part of treating the world as if it is conscious. When you realize that the world is conscious, animals are conscious, plants are conscious, even rocks are conscious, you can’t help but want to pay closer attention to the relationship of yourself to the rest of the world, and various forms within it. And when you realize that your own consciousness is not limited to your brain, it is only natural to take the step of trying to notice the consciousness of other parts of your body, regardless of how limited that consciousness may be.”

“Certain Rosicrucian scholars have given special appellations to these three phases of the sun: the spiritual sun they called Vulcan, the solar and intellectual sun, Christ and Lucifer respectively, and the material sun, the Jewish Demiurgus Jehovah. Lucifer here represents the intellectual mind without the illumination of the spiritual mind; therefore it is ‘the false light.’ The false light is finally overcome and redeemed by the true light of the soul called the Second Logos, or Christ. … In the rare treatise ‘The Secret symbols of the Rosicrucian’ Franz Hartmann defines the sun alchemically as: ‘The symbol of Wisdom. The center of power or heart of things. Each living being contains within itself a center of life, which may grow to be a sun. In the heart of the regenerated, the divine power, stimulated by the Light of the Logos, grows into a sun which illuminates his mind.’”~Manly P. Hall

“We would say three suns rather than three phases of the sun, but the basic idea is the same. There is the physical sun which equates to our physical body, the psychic or intellectual sun that equates to our psychic body, and the spiritual sun that relates to and effects the spirit and soul. A special note should be made of the fact that Hall equates the physical sun with both matter and the Demiurge which he says is the Jewish God Jehovah. Something to ponder.”
