Let the Great Light be Ever with You

spirit

 

“My son, my unseen little one now asleep in comfortable darkness, gathering your strength for the coming struggle, may the Great God of Life add His strength to your strength. You will be a great one among men, for you were conceived in love and not in lust.

“Within the guardian of my heart you remain as a wonderful mystery. I am overcome with awe, for within you there is something God inspired. It bestows strange powers upon you, so that at the appointed time you fight for air and light. You will be a man of courage, for such men are born to the fearless and good. Strength and beauty, courage and modesty have mated, that you might be the heir of their gifts. Your heritage was chosen by those who gave you life.

“It is your fate, my son, as a child born of woman, to fight and grasp, to grimly hold onto life as you reach across to this side of the earthly portal. There are dark powers that would drag you back, but you are not for them. O let the Great Light be ever with you, as a watchman’s fire on a lonely road, when the evil powers beset your way.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:29:19-21)

Coming Struggle

This part of the Kolbrin Bible was written thousands of years ago, so the struggle it refers to maybe something already in the past, but the idea applies just as well to the struggle happening now between the forces of Light and Darkness. This is not a struggle, or war, in the conventional sense, with people killing each other. Those of Darkness may kill, but those of Light do not. Instead, we seek to convert those caught up in the lies of the dark one to the knowledge of truth and love.

Great God of Life

There is only one true God and that is the Great God of Life. He is not the God of life and death. Death is not His creation and it is not something He desires. Death comes from the false god, the god of matter. It is only because we are in the world of matter that our physical bodies are subject to pain, disease, and death. It the Spiritual Realm of the Great God of Life, those things don’t exist.

God will give us the strength to stand up to the forces and being of darkness if we follow His will and help in the Great Plan to restore the physical realm back to it’s original state as spirit.

Child Born of Woman

What the writer is saying here is that a person born into the realm of matter must fight and grasp to hold onto life. It is easier for some then for others, but we all struggle is some ways to survive in this realm where there are so many things that can take physical life from us. It isn’t so much that physical life is important, but it is important that we awaken and develop our spiritual faculties while we are in the physical realm. Since that takes time—typically twenty years, or more—we must try to stay alive in this realm as long as possible, but without surrendering to the forces of darkness.

The Great Light

I love this phrase! I can’t think of a better thing to say to a person than “Let the Great Light be ever with you.” Unfortunately, most people have strayed so far from God and Truth that they don’t know what the Great Light is or how to obtain it. We in Cosolargy know that the best source of that Light on Earth is the Spiritual Sun, so we practice a spiritual form of sun gazing to allow that Light into us.




Order Indicates Intelligence and DNA has Order

 

“The strand of DNA in a single cell is six feet, six inches long. That’s a lot of code when you consider that the size of the characters in the code is microscopic. Think of the enormous amount of information packed into it. Moreover, the type of order found in DNA, which is the basis of life, is not simple, symmetric order. It is a highly complex, specified order that might be compared to the notches on a key, which are highly irregular, but also highly specified. They must be so in order to open a particular lock—a kind of specificity does not happen by accident because it is a kind of language. Consider, for example, the arrangement of the letters in this sentence, or for that matter, in this entire book. They did not and could not have happened by accident. You may not agree with what I have written, but you have to admit that putting all these letters together to communicate what I want to tell you must have required at least a minimal degree of intelligence. This kind of premeditated organization is what is found in the DNA and the RNA. Indeed, three things found in the universe that have the property of specificity are 1) human language, 2) computer code, and 3) the information in DNA and RNA. It should go without saying that whenever we see information such as that, there is always an intelligent input that accounts for it, which indicates convincingly that intelligence is behind the origin of life. Nevertheless, after more than 60 years, science teachers in schools and colleges are still teaching their students that matter is all there is. However, not everyone remains in denial, and many today are coming to the realization that the basic premise of Scientific Materialism simply cannot be correct.

“This awakening, which is now gaining speed, began more than 40 years ago. After Click’s discovery, a few brave souls broke from tradition and accepted the fact that there must be some sort of guiding intelligence responsible for the origin of life. I know this from personal experience because I read a book more than forty years ago that put forth that argument. Published in 1975, it refuted the idea that intelligence, consciousness, and awareness came about because of evolution.”

-Stephen Hawley Martin in the book Christ Consciousness

Strand of DNA

As the first sentence of the quote indicates, a single strand of DNA found in one of our cells will stretch to 6.5 feet long when uncoiled, but because it is tightly coiled, it takes up a small fraction of an inch in our cells. What Mr. Martin is telling us is that there is an enormous amount of information stored in a strand of DNA, and that information implies order and intelligence in each cell of our body.

Highly Complex Order

Martin adds that not only is there an order to the information stored in each DNA strand, but it is a complex order. He compares it to the notches in a key. While a plain key may be simple, various combinations of notches can be added to the key so that thousands of different keys can be made, each one capable of opening a different lock. He is saying that DNA works in a similar way. In other words, the strand of DNA in a blood cell is specialized so that when the cell reproduces, it will produce another blood cell, not some other type of cell.

Guiding Intelligence

Martin eventually says that some experts are now saying that this complex arrangement of DNA implies that there is a guiding Intelligence that is responsible for life. This is a reasonable conclusion, but it must be noted that we are still dealing with only the life of the physical body.

Beyond Matter

The quote does not follow on with what I think is a logical conclusion: this Guiding Intelligence had to exist before the physical universe was created. If there was some Intelligence before matter existed, that intelligence had to be spiritual. So what these studied of DNA really prove is that there must be a realm of spirit that existed before the realm of matter and the guiding intelligence of that spiritual realm is what most of us call God.




Words of Wisdom from the Gospel of Thomas

 

“These are the hidden sayings that the living Yeshua spoke and Yehuda Toma the twin recorded. And he said, Whoever discovers what these sayings mean will not taste death.

“Yeshua said, Seek and do not stop seeking until you find. When you find, you will be troubled. When you are troubled, you will marvel and rule over all.

“Yeshua said, If your leaders tell you, “Look, the kingdom is in heaven,” then the birds of heaven will precede you. If they say to you, “It’s in the sea,” then the fish will precede you. But the kingdom is inside you and it is outside you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you dwell in poverty and you are poverty.

“Yeshua said, A person old in days will not hesitate to ask a little child seven days old about the place of life, and the person will live. For many of the first will be last and become a single one.

“Yeshua said, Know what is in front of your face and what is hidden from you will be disclosed. There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. His students asked him and said to him, Do you want us to fast? How should we pray? Should we give to charity? What diet should we observe?

“Yeshua said, Do not lie and do not do what you hate. All things are disclosed before heaven. There is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, nothing covered that will remain undisclosed.

“Yeshua said, Blessings on you who came into being before coming into being. If you become my students and hear my sayings, these stones will serve you. For there are five trees in paradise for you. Summer or winter they do not change and their leaves do not fall. Whoever knows them will not taste death.

-Gospel of Thomas

Will Not Taste Death

Those who awaken and develop their spiritual faculties will gain eternal life, so they will not taste death. Their physical bodies will die, but their spirit and soul will live on.

Seek Until You find

Thomas is talking about spiritual growth and development throughout the above quote, so when he says that Jesus (Yeshua) told him not to stop seeking until you find it, he is talking about seeking a path to spiritual awakening. Thomas is not going to put it in writing, but we in Cosolargy know that Jesus and his apostles did practice spiritual sun-gazing.

Looking for the kingdom

In this case, Thomas is using the word “heaven” to mean the sky. So here Jesus tells him that if they look to the sky for the Kingdom of God, the birds will be there before you. And if you think it is in the sea, the fish will be their first. He then says the Kingdom of God is found inside and outside of us. We don’t just turn inside, as some spiritual teachers advise. We must also look outside, to the cosmos, especially to the Spiritual Sun.

Know Yourself

Many materialists think they know themselves, but when they deny the existence of the spirit, they deny a very important part of what they truly are. But is is more than simply being aware that we have a spiritual Self. We have to awaken that spiritual Self before we can really know ourselves.

Everything Hidden Will be Revealed

When we awaken our spiritual Self, and develop it gradually until we reach the highest levels of consciousness, everything will be revealed because there is no way to keep it secret. At that level, you are in direct contact with the Mind of God so all veils are lifted, and all Truth and Wisdom is revealed.




Finding and Obtaining the Clear Light of God

spirit

 

“Navigating the terrains of the Bardo, we may face unwelcome travelers of fear and disorientation, which stir the waters of our minds, obscuring the serene reflection needed for recognizing the Clear Light. Familiarity with the path is indispensable; without prior experience and reflection on the essence of the Clear Light, recognition in the Bardo becomes akin to finding a needle in a cosmic haystack. The “Bardo Thödol” prescribes practices and teachings aimed at peeling away these veils, refining our perception, and revealing the luminous nature inherent in all beings. By integrating mindfulness, compassion, and wisdom into daily life, practitioners prepare to meet this unique juncture with awareness and understanding, recognizing the Clear Light as their true nature. This unveiling is more than an ephemeral experience; it’s a golden opportunity for immediate liberation, an invitation to awaken to our innate wisdom and compassion, to reflect on life’s impermanence, and to live with mindfulness and spiritual vigor. The teachings of this Bardo serve as a guide for the dying and a reflective mirror for the living, unveiling deeper truths of existence and offering a path towards self-realization and liberation.”

-the Tibetan Book of the Dead

Unwelcome Travelers

TheWord Bardo refers to the place where we are between Heaven and Earth, but what the quote says about unwanted travelers applies to the physical world as well. Not only might we face “unwelcome travelers,” we definitely will. These unwelcome travelers of fear and disorientation are generally called demons and devils. Their purpose is to keep us confused about what is real and what is illusion, what is important and what isn’t. They want to prevent us from awakening and developing our spiritual Self.

Serene Reflection

Serene Reflection is needed to recognize the Clear Light of God and the path to it. Some schools teach that this “serene reflection” means practicing basic meditation, but that is a tool for beginners and we must remember that the ancient schools were careful to not put too much knowledge in writing to prevent it from being misused. There is, as we know in Cosolargy, ample evidence that the ancient spiritual groups and mystery schools in many parts of the world practiced some form of spiritual Sun Gazing.

Bardo Thödol

Bardo Thödol is another name for the Tibetan Book of the Dead, so the real purpose of this book is to teach people how to engage in spiritual development. The quote says that its teachings are aimed at “peeling away the veils”. It was taught in many spiritual schools that the Spiritual Sun was blocked from us by “veils”, and those veils would be lifted at some future date. We are now living in the time when the veils are being lifted and people are awakening to the reality of a Spiritual Self, and the need to awaken and develop it. Although some veils may remain, practicing the proper techniques can lift those veils.

Awaken to Wisdom

The quote says the lifting of the veils gives us an opportunity to “ awaken to our innate wisdom and compassion.” Another way of saying it is that it gives us the ability to develop higher levels of consciousness until we reach the highest levels where we are one with the All, one with God. When that happens, we are also one with True Wisdom and Love for all. That is how we become part of the Clear Light of God.




On Some Aspects of God

 

David in the Psalms says, ‘I believe I see the goodness of the lord in the land of the living.’ He also says, ‘Let your good spirit lead me on a level path.’ Solomon declares, ‘But the just will inherit the earth and live on it forever.’ About creation, I wish to confess that our lord God is the creator and author, but not of the 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?’ The messenger also says in Colossians, ‘If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world?

GOD HAS NOT MADE DEATH

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 or factor, who is the principle and cause of death, of perdition, and of all evil.

ON THE OMNIPOTENCE OF THE TRUE LORD GOD

I wish to speak now of the omnipotence of the true lord God, which so often permits our adversaries to play the glorious one when they claim against us that there is no other force or power than theirs. Although in the testimony of the holy scriptures, the true lord God may be called all powerful, one must not believe that he is called that because he can do and does all evils, because there exist many evils that the lord cannot and will never do.

THAT GOD CANNOT DO EVIL

If God does not want to do all the wicked things, if he does not want to lie or destroy himself, surely he cannot. Because what God in his unity does not want to do, he cannot do. And what he cannot do, he does not want to do. And in this sense, one must say that the power of sinning and of doing evil does not belong to the true lord God. All that is thought to be God’s attributes and conduct is not accidental, as the learned know. It necessarily follows, then, that God himself and his will are one and the same. The good God cannot lie or commit every kind of evil, if he wants to, because this true God cannot do what he does not want to, we repeat, since he himself and his will are one and the same.

-Book of The Two Principles

Goodness of God

Yes, God is good in the Land of the Living. Actually, God is always good. But what is the land of the Living? It is the realm of spirit, especially the highest level of spirit that most call Heaven or Nirvana. The Earth, currently a part of the physical realm created by the false god, the Demiurge, is a place of death and disease. Yet Solomon says ‘the just will inherit the earth and live on it forever.’ Which means the Earth must change back into a world of spirit so eternal spirits can live here.

God Doesn’t Kill

In many cases, people believe that God kills under certain circumstances. That is not true. God never kills. Some will argue that if God allows demons, devils, and evil people to kill, that is the same as if God kills them. That is like saying a rock is a killer because someone shaped the rock into a spearhead. In any case, God doesn’t kill because it is pointless to kill the physical body which is already temporary, and God cannot kill the eternal Soul as he made it to be immortal.

God is Omnipotent

God is all-powerful and indestructible. While the false gods will say otherwise, the true God remains the only God that is omnipotent. There is a simple reason for this. When you put together the spirits of all beings, all things, all spirits of any kind, you have God. There is no way for anyone to destroy all of that.

God does not do Evil

Some think that if God is omnipotent, then he must do evil as well as good, but simply because God is all-powerful doesn’t mean God does all things, including evil. It is the very nature of God to be Good, to be loving, to be forgiving. Only false gods do evil, get jealous, take revenge, etc. The true God is not like that.

Mani on Eating Bread and Being Attacked by an Angry Crowd

“Then I said to them, ‘In no way would I destroy the commandments of the Savior. But if you reproach me on account of wheat bread, because I have said, “It is necessary to eat of it,” this the savior has done; as it is written, that when he had blessed it and shared it with his students, “over bread he said a blessing and gave it to them.” Was not that bread from wheat? The scripture points out that he reclined to eat with tax collectors and idolaters. Likewise, he also reclined to eat in the house of Martha and Mary on the occasion when Martha said to him, “Lord, do you not care enough for me so as to tell my sister to help me?” and the savior said to her, “Mary has chosen the good portion, and it will not be taken away from her.” Consider, moreover, how even the students of the savior ate bread from women and idolaters and did not separate bread from bread, nor vegetable from vegetable; nor did they eat, while laboring in the toil and tilling of the land, as you do today. Likewise, when the savior sent his students out to preach in each place, neither mill nor oven did they carry with them, but made haste, taking one garment. . . ‘

“Then Mani said to them, “Consider these famous men of your law, those who saw these visions, who were moved by them and proclaimed them as good news to others. Likewise, I too practice everything I was taught by them.” “While I was speaking to them, reducing their words to nothing, suddenly they became angry and violent, and one of them even got up and hit me. They huddled around me and beat me. They grabbed my hair as though I were an enemy. They shouted at me in a loud voice that grew bitter and angry as at someone who was superstitious. Out of malice, they wanted to strangle me. Because Pattikios, the master of the house, begged them not to be impious toward people among them, they were ashamed and released me. After I went through this trial, I withdrew to one side and stood praying. I prayed for our lord to come to my aid.”

-On the Origins of His Body (a Manichian scripture)

Mani on Eating Bread

It is not clear who Mani was, though he calls himself a disciple of Jesus. He was the leader of a Gnostic group that we now refer to as Manichians. In the first part of the above quote, he is addressing someone who has apparently objected to Mani and his followers eating wheat bread and eating bread from “unclean” sources. He points out that Jesus and his apostles did the same. He notes, however, that Jesus blessed the bread before sharing it with the apostles. The implication is that his blessing removes all negative characteristics from it. We know today that most types of bread are not as healthy as people believed for centuries, but it isn’t the nutritional value that Mani is talking about.

Ate Bread from Women and Idolaters

Mani adds that the students of the savior ate bread that came “from women and idolaters”. It is not clear if he means bread that was made by such people, or simply served by them. Perhaps both. He adds that they even ate vegetables from such people. Why anyone should be concerned about eating bread or other foods from women is beyond me, but apparently there were people in the time of Mani who objected to doing so.

Mani adds that when the followers of Jesus traveled, they did not carry an oven with them. The implication is that they did not bake their own bread, but relied on the people they were visiting to supply them with food, no matter who those people were.

Such things sound silly to most people today, but we have those who avoid buying products from some companies because of their politics.

Reducing Their Words to Nothing

Mani changes the subject here and is now telling the story of a time he was attacked by a crowd of people he was speaking to for “reducing their words to nothing”. In other words, he was contradicting long-held beliefs of theirs and many people will turn on someone who does that rather than admit they were wrong. We still see a lot of this today. Many politicians take advantage of this fact to manipulate and control people. We see this in Cosolargy where we lose a number of students after six or seven months of study because they reach some teaching in the books that contradicts a belief they are not willing to change. They don’t see that if you can’t change, you can’t move forward.

 




God Creates the Worlds of Light

“Before all the worlds came into being there was a sole enormous fruit, and when the enormous fruit entered a fruit, the great and glistening King of Light began. An ether of radiance existed. From the ether of radiance came the living fire. From the living fire there was a light. By the power of the king of light came the great fruit and life. The great fruit came alive and in it rolled the Jordan, which is also a garden. The great Jordan came alive, and the living water was in it. Luminous water came alive from the living water. I, life, came alive and all the uthras—the light beings—found space.

“When the fruit was in the fruit, when the ether was in the ether, when the great and glorious Mana was there from whom powerful manas came, whose radiance is enormous and light is great, no one was before them in the fruit abundant and without end, whose radiance is too abundant for the words of the mouth, and whose light, which was in that fruit, too great for telling with the lips. From the fruit came a thousand thousand fruits without end and a myriad myriad of beings of light, the shkinas, beyond count. In each fruit were a thousand thousand beings of light. They stand and praise the great and glorious Mana, who lives in the great ether, within the Jordans of white water made by the Mana, whose aroma is fragrant and inhaled on all the roots of light and on the great first radiance. The long Jordan was made to go on uncounted and endlessly. Plants grow next to it. They are happy. They praise and stand in perfection, and from the great Jordan came uncounted Jordans endlessly.”

-The Ginza

A sole Enormous Fruit

This is obviously an allegorical statement. It was written in a way that people with little scientific knowledge could understand. It is simply saying that there was one undivided Whole, a Oneness. This was before God created anything. This oneness is sometimes called the Godhead.

King of Light

The King of Light is God. From the phrase “ the great and glistening King of Light began,” it sounds like God is being created, but that is not exactly true. God always existed and always will. He is outside the limitations of time and space. I think this refers to God beginning his creation. It is confusing when we always think in terms of time and space, but even though God had to create the Worlds of Light and the beings of Light, those worlds and those beings have no beginning and no end as they too are outside of the limitations of Time and Space. I am illustrating this article with an image of what is supposed to be the hand of God creating. I used that image because it is a popular way of illustrating creation, but God is a spirit and doesn’t have hands. In any case, it is the mind of God that creates, not his hands.

From The Light Came Life

From the Spiritual Light of God comes Spiritual Life. Physical life is an altered version of Spiritual Life and is created by the Demiurge, not the real God. From the Light, powerful Manas also were created. Mana is a Hindu word that refers to the Spiritual Mind, so this is telling us that the Light not only produced spiritual bodies, but also spiritual minds.

Myriad Beings of Light

The quote then says that Beings of Light came from the Light, or in other words, were created by the Light. These are the beings that most of us call angels. They were created before humans were created, so while some angels may have spent time in physical form on Earth, angels are not created from dead humans. They were angels before they became human. In other words, we were Spiritual Beings before the Great Fall in which we became beings of matter.

Jordans of White Water

The Ginza says that the Mana created many Jordans. This is allegorical. The Jordan river was considered sacred to the ancients so what this means is that the Spiritual Mind of God created a great flow of Light full of Grace, truth, and Wisdom. Those rays of Light are the Jordans of White Water.

 




A Mystical Experience

December 6th, 2024

 

It was a quiet Friday evening, and I was reading, sitting on my bed. The hour was close to 8:45pm, when I saw a movement to the right of my vision. I turned and saw a brilliant sun entity coming through my window on the northeast side of our parsonage. It was about ten inches across and a brilliant turquoise in color. It seemed to be aware of me as it moved about the room.

The entity was bright and clear, and did not fade as my eyes followed its movements. This movement continued for approximately 60 seconds. The emotion in my body changed quickly to extreme happiness. Then, during this beautiful moment, the sun symbol changed into the most perfect, clear solar cross while still a brilliant turquoise in color. Then after fifteen seconds in this new form, it slowly departed my room through the wall.

Another part of this wonderful experience happened as I fell asleep that evening. I felt a very strong tapping on my right shoulder, so strong was this touch that I sat up and looked around expecting to see someone near me. It was as if I was being reminded that my experience was very real.

The following evening, the entity returned at approximately the same time, in the form of our solar cross and placed itself over a photo of Bishop Gene Savoy Sr and slowly faded over a period of 10 seconds. The emotion of happiness was again very strong.

The three signs that I perceived were a sun, our solar cross, and the color turquoise.

From our Community book on dreams and visions, a sun in a dream or vision is a very significant sign presaging some kind of Spiritual revelation, in which the individual can expect profound changes for a new life.

Then we have a cross: “to see, a good omen implying holiness.” And finally, the color turquoise, a sign of physical well-being and strength. It is also a symbol of regeneration.

The Ignorant Rulers and the Perfect Ones

“ For it was ludicrous. It is I who bear witness that it was ludicrous, since the rulers do not know that this is an ineffable union of undefiled truth, as exists among the children of light, of which they made an imitation, having proclaimed a doctrine of a dead man and lies so as to resemble the freedom and purity of the perfect assembly, and having joined themselves in their doctrine to fear and slavery, worldly cares, and abandoned worship, being small and ignorant, since they do not contain the nobility of the truth. For they hate the one in whom they are and love the one in whom they are not. For they did not know

the knowledge of the greatness that it is from above and from a fountain of truth and not from slavery and jealousy, fear, and love of worldly matter. For that which is not theirs and that which is theirs they use fearlessly and freely. They do not desire because they have authority, and they have a law from themselves over whatever they will wish. But those who have not are poor, that is, those who possess nothing, and yet they desire something. And they lead astray those who, through them, have become like those who possess the truth of their freedom, so as to bring us under a yoke and constraint of care and fear. This person is in slavery. And one who is brought by constraint of force and threat has been guarded by god. But the entire nobility of the fatherhood is not guarded, since he guards what is his own by himself, without word and constraint. He is united with his will, he who belongs only to the thought of the fatherhood, to make it perfect and ineffable through the living water, to be with you mutually in wisdom, not only in word of hearing but in deed and fulfilled word. For the perfect ones are worthy to be established in this way and to be united with me, in order that they may not share in any enmity, in a good friendship. I accomplish everything through the good one, for this is the union of the truth, that they should have no adversary. But everyone who brings division—and such a one will learn no wisdom at all because he brings division and is not a friend—is hostile to them all. But one who lives in harmony and friendship of brotherly love, naturally and not artificially, completely and not partially, this person is truly the desire of the father. This is the universal one and perfect love.”

-the Second Treatise of the Great Seth

Rulers do not Know Truth

The above quote was written thousands of years ago, so rulers who don’t know the Truth is nothing new. Of course, some rulers are very intelligent and know worldly things, worldly truth, but very few know Divine Truth. Today, however, we are seeing rulers who not only lack spiritual knowledge, but often have limited worldly knowledge as well.

Some centuries in the past, it was common practice for rulers to consult with advanced spiritual leaders so that they could maintain a balanced government that was both good on the material level and also on the spiritual level. Some governments today still have an office for a spiritual or religious leader, but the presidents and kings rarely consult them or follow their advice. When they do, it is often because the ruler chooses as the government’s religious leader someone who agrees with him most of the time.

Doctrine of a Dead Man

What Seth calls the Doctrine of a Dead Man is the laws or rules of a materialistic ruler. He is a dead man because he hasn’t awakened and developed his immortal spirit, so when he physically dies, he will be truly dead. The doctrines of such people are full of fear and slavery. Not slavery in the normal sense, but slavery in that one becomes attached to the material world that is constantly changing. Doctrines based on fear are never a good thing.

Knowledge of Greatness

The Knowledge of the Greatness from above does free us from fear and slavery. This is the Knowledge of God, of Truth, and of Wisdom. It is what the Gnostics called Gnosis and it come to those who awaken their spiritual faculties and develop them to the point where they reach the highest levels of consciousness where Heaven is and where God and the Angels of Light dwell. When we become one with that level of being, we lose all fear and are no longer slaves to capitalism or materialism. Then we join the Perfect Ones.
