## The Ultimate Q & A about Life!

#### Introduction:

     These are the questions we all have about life. Some of us are afraid to ask them, some of us are convinced there are no good answers to these questions, and still yet others are too distracted by life to consider asking them. Somewhere – greed plays into this too as a root emotion. Me, Me, Me!!!!!

     The pain and suffering of life however; is trying to tell us something. Something we missed. Often when we suffer a personal event called a "dark night" (a moment of personal crises and subsequent reckoning) such as I did; we get it. Often when we face our mortality – we get it. Birth, death, and difficulty believe it or not – are the path to the truth!

     Some of this information was the result of several near death experiences I had personally. Walking between the worlds – as it is commonly called. The near death experiences I had, and others have had, are well documented. We just don't believe them given our societal mindset.

     Other than my personal experiences, and the documented experiences of others; there are volumes of spiritual information on this subject. The problem is that religions and bibles all contradict each other severely – or so it seems at first. The mainstream belief systems remain mostly at odds with each other, regarding the same truth.

     So where can we find answers to the big questions in life? What are all these different belief systems trying to tell us about the same ultimate truth? Other than surviving a death event and experiencing it first hand – how can we find out the truth about spirit and mortality?

     I have assembled the best information I could find regarding these topics during my research to explain what I experienced. I didn't get stuck in any single belief system. In fact I found that allowing ourselves to be confined within a single belief was the greatest trapping and hindrance to obtaining the truth.

     At first I considered every belief system I could find on its own merits to explain my experiences. That didn't work. Then I considered all of the separate belief systems as a single premise – and started to get results. Then I took it a step farther.

     What did the Ancient Mystery School Teachings have to say on these subjects? Upon closer scrutiny, I soon discovered a dirty little secret. The Guardians of the Great Truth; and the Purveyors of the Great Lie – are the same bunch!

     To start with – behind every mainstream religion we currently acknowledge – was an Ancient Mystery School! The fact is that any religion you might choose to embrace; had a great, great, great, grand pappy! Here it is in a nutshell! Every religion has a more ancient teaching behind it! And here is the good part – they are all the same ancient teaching! The roots of every religion are connected to the same tree!

     So don't let anyone convince you with romanticized parables and spiritual euphemisms; that they have the only correct path to genuine spirituality. All these separate paths to spirituality are the same path. I'd best tell you more about the roots of all our separate beliefs first.

     A brief History lesson will be required. Human civilization didn't start with the Egyptians. All the supposedly first societies in our bogus history books were nowhere near the first. This monkey show has been going on way longer than we think. Given this corrective lens; we must ask – "Who was here long before us – and what did they know (especially about the above subjects about life)?

     We can argue about our being here as cave dwellers until Jesus, and the cows come home. But how long ago did we first develop a cultured civilization? When did we first grasp and undertake a superior mastery of stonemasonry, cosmic orbits, geometry, math, language, and so on and so forth. How long have we been around as hairless questing creatures on a bent?

     If the ruins littering our planet above and below the waterline aren't enough proof we have been like we are now for tens of thousands of years longer than our history books currently accept – what about all those bibles and their shared root? Why did ancient man build so many massive monuments in stone? And better yet why is it that upon closer scrutiny; the history of our belief systems is equally lost and forgotten with those ruins?

     For the same reasons! Those stone temples and monuments (which were neither tombs nor grandiose headstones) were part and parcel of their belief systems! Why else would our ancestors have spent tens of thousands of years building monuments and chipping this stuff onto stones! A 15 watt Sherlock could figure this one out. Judge Judy would solve this case in roughly 20 minutes less commercials! Why can't our society?

     Because it answers too many questions – with answers we don't like. Answers that prove; we ain't "all that." Answers that prove that in some respects at least (the really important ones) – that the more ancient civilization was the more cultured one. This isn't what we are taught, but given timeframes and skill-sets – it really is a "no-brainer."

     If you can consider that the roots and foundations for all our current belief systems came from an older belief system; I have valuable information for you to consider. Any amateur detective could trace back our spiritual roots.

     If you can accept that my near death experiences and those of others are not completely fabricated, nor are they mere hallucinations – I have valuable information for you to consider. There are numerous ways to confirm these experiences – don't be fooled into thinking there are not.

     If you believe that prayer and meditation are the work of a developed consciousness on a quest to explain a twofold reality; and not the baseless rituals of a weak mind – I have valuable information for you. The superior intellect considers how we experience life – not just the mechanical stuff.

     All that being said; and I know I said a mouthful – entertain discovery of the taboo and forbidden. And ask this question; "Why is this information vehemently denied, forbidden, and concealed? I can tell you why, but it is gonna shake the tree and rattle the cage a bit for some. Dogma and independent free thinking clash severely.

     I've assembled a book of questions and answers from the questions people ask, and the answers they seek. The ancients knew better how this part of life works. The secret societies and the Vatican also know but won't tell you. Didn't you ever wonder what the Big Secret of the Vatican (and virtually all organized religions) really is? Don't be fooled; they know – they just don't want you to know. They have everyone convinced that you need them to find what we call God, which is an outright lie.

     Those who have had profound spiritual experiences, or felt the presence of a departed loved one, or had a near death experience and remember it, or those who find the design in life through sciences, or those who create art or music from a special place, have a serious leg up on all this. All I can suggest is that you seriously consider what they have to say.

     I don't just suspect or think that we are not a completely physical conscious entity – I know it. The information I found that jived with what I learned, felt, and experienced; was easy to sort through with this experiential advantage. I feel compelled.......nay obligated – to share what I know with you. We have been fed a lot of bull-pucky my brother and sister associates.

     I am going to say some things that will ruffle feathers and blow minds simultaneously. I guess which occurs; is directly related to what side of a very long fence you sit on. For some of you who can believe and grasp what I am trying to say; these are the answers you have sought. This is the straight goods.

     Hopefully; those who find some of this too far fetched and fantastic – will still find something of intrigue here to stimulate consideration. I know what you will find. Every subject connects. It connects to that which breaks down the barrier of the third dimensional illusion. If you'll look, you'll see.

     I pulled out all the stops on this book. After three printed books, and three on disc on hold for now; I decided to make book seven the charm. There is science to much of this believe it or not – but that content will be found abundantly in the first six books. This book is about important questions; which contrary to popular belief – there are sound answers for.

     My personal near death experiences, much data on the near death experiences of others, and the Ancient Secret Mystery School Teachings (the daddy of all religions) – generated these answers. The Mystic Masters studied these subjects deeply, and assembled all the credible information which was kept secret. This knowledge and secret teaching about the nuts and bolts of spiritual reality has been denied us – yet is the foundation for all current belief systems and organized religions. They are only telling you part of it – and I have proof!

     There really are Secret Societies; just study the Illuminati and the criminal element in governments and the Vatican, and the associated secrecy a little. The facts obtained by these ancient teachings were derived from metaphysical experiences, by witnesses if you will recall. The research for the Bibles in other words; was real research done in metaphysical spaces and realms long ago. We lack the benefit of what they knew.

     Unlike them however; I'm sharing – I feel compelled and obligated. Most people are afraid of the truth, or afraid of what someone will do to them for telling others the truth. I know we don't die, and that not even death can hurt me; what are you going to scare me (or anyone else with if you get my drift) – your own personal damnation for your mistakes? I digress.

     If we were to go even further back in time of a forgotten history; before any cultured society existed – we would have encountered these same truths – from a more ancient tribal perspective. Even our oldest tribal ancestors had a far superior grip on the true nature of reality spiritually speaking, than the ones being sold now. Our first incarnation above that which we call animals or beasts had the good sense to give reverence and thanks to a higher power. Not because they were simple and stupid either – because they had a fully functional inner child. It was still intact then. They could still feel this.

     In fact in some respects the Shaman had the straight goods about life without any gizmos to look at life with like we have. Why did they know better than us? Is our gadget advantage perhaps not an advantage spiritually speaking? Is a gadget advantage a spiritual hindrance? If we use it wrong, without understanding the true nature of reality it would be a blinder, a veil, and a lost path metaphorically speaking.

     But; a science which does not rule out a spiritual component to life and considers the observer as a valid input – immediately sorts this out in short order. Life is a design. Design more than implies instructions and a designer. Nature thinks, the cosmos thinks, the quantum sub-structure thinks, from the top down. This "special element" of life still eludes the strictly materialist left-brained academic.

     Science is going to figure this out. When the true nature of reality is exposed as that of conscious experience, love and feelings; when all the material essences are inescapably shown to be formed of metaphysical instructions, and when it is impossible to deny that everything is communicating at a higher level as if it were a greater body – we are going to have to factor in the added input. An input with beautiful implications, one we all can experience by design, through our birth, learning stage, and inevitable passing and rebirth.

     The truth has a certain ring to it for me now. If I can somehow help people find truth in their lives, and answer some difficult questions we tend to avoid out of needless fear – I will have made my own modest contribution to that end. This short book – has a lot in it.

     We are not worthless, pointless, nor fodder for grovelling. What we are is infinite conscious energy on tour. We are the program itself; experiencing itself. Your/my/our experience; is the gift made flesh. Every last one of us is a worthy spirit trying to find itself - trying to find its way home. Help me let what spirit told me and countless others be brought into the open and illuminated for the good of the earth tribe, my brothers and sisters made flesh.

     These are the questions we all ask, or at least should. The answers should startle some and comfort others. To some with no such concepts and a confused inner child; they will seem mute. I pray earnestly that I can awaken in you the spark which is common to us all.

Wellness, Truth, and Love for All..........

#### Conclusion:

     There might yet be one more question I am asked by skeptics and believers alike – which I deliberately saved for the conclusion......it is a good question.

Q: How did you acquire this information, and why do you believe it to be correct?

A: The information in this book came at a price; it always does. Let me give you a brief history of my journey to start with – and the subsequent path to the truth it put me on.

     Much like most of us - I was not what you would consider a "religious man," and had long put to rest any notions of a Supreme Being, along with my notions of Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy. I had the usual conception for God imprinted on me as a child from attending Sunday school – of a spooky father figure on a throne.

     I was and still am somewhat unrefined to put it politely. And as I stated; I was not religious. I still am not what could be called religious; however I am as spiritual as all get out now........and I'd like to tell you why.

     At the age of 50 I learned much to my misfortune, that I have a nasty heart condition they called "sustained ventricular tachardia" (an arrhythmia related problem). My heart was racing at 208 beats per minute; and got stuck there. The doctor told me my heart wasn't even really beating; just quivering - and they were somewhat surprised that I wasn't unconscious or worse.

     Most people who have this condition I am told; pass out and become unconscious at the very least, or they die.

     You can well imagine an emergency room full of attendants scrambling about trying to slow down my heart rate to no avail. First they tried bombarding me with a few different medications to bring it under control – which had absolutely no effect. Then after calling for an ambulance to get me into a major hospital better geared to deal with my serious condition, the Doctor, a G.P. – came in and told me to prepare for something rather unpleasant and dangerous that had to be done.

     After pussy-footing around for a few moments; he told me point blank that the only hope of bringing my heart under control – would be to completely stop my heart and then attempt to restart it! They call it being cardioverted – which in layman's terms means flat-lined.

     Within minutes of telling me this; they injected me with a drug to knock me out so I wouldn't be conscious and suffer the effects of paddling me out – and hopefully bringing me back into the world of the living again! My wife and I locked eyes for a brief moment; it wasn't hard to figure out that this was really serious. Then away I went!

     As I was going under and somewhat fearful; a Voice spoke to me - "The Voice" if you can grip what I am telling you. There was immediately no ambiguity as to the source of the Voice – it was what we call God. Even for a non-believer, there wasn't a shred of doubt. What The Voice told me; was even more mind expanding.

     This Voice was accompanied by a calming loving presence beyond the power of mere verbs to describe. Then this Voice which spoke directly to my consciousness said; "Don't worry, no matter what happens – you'll be alright." And I instantly believed this and knew it was true to my core. I understood that this meant even if my body died – I would not. This was more than a little mind blowing, it was transformative.

     My wife who was present said I was out for a few minutes before they managed to get me started again. About three minutes I was told later. I was technically dead for several minutes. Medical science claims that with no heart beat – there can be no brainwaves (alpha, beta, delta, and theta) and no consciousness. They are wrong – dead wrong!

     Our brain might no longer reflect our consciousness when our body is compromised, but the source of the brainwaves, the consciousness remains. Let's say that it just quits registering the activity – that's all. It struck me that the storms in our brains; were the result of the storm, and not the brain. Mind blowing; yes. Educational; to say the least! We are not our brain – but merely a temporary user of it.

     After spending ten more days in Level One Cardio; they sent me home for two months to recuperate and prepare for a corrective procedure to prevent my heart from getting stuck again. I spent that next two months on heavy meds to hold my heart rate down while slowly getting better and trying to mentally digest what had happened to me.

     But back on the same night as all this first took place, while I was lying in my hospital bed worried about what would happen to me, meditating on a new level – my dear departed friend Mike (along with a host of others) came to me to answer my questions. He was there in person; but not physically. Again; there was no ambiguity about identity – we knew who each other were.

     I asked him where "they" the spirits were when I had died – since I didn't encounter them. Why hadn't I left my body as others claim to have experienced? The answers blew my already bewildered mind. "We were all there" he said; only you didn't know it – we are all always there. My next question was; "What is going to happen to me now?"

     I was then told that I would live until about seventy years of age (give or take), and to write my books. Do your work! Apparently it was why I was still here. There was also an inexplicable healing moment a few days later, which resulted in my eventual release. Until that moment I was to have a surgery and have an implantable defibrillator installed to keep me alive – before I left the hospital. After this odd healing event (which taught me something about how this works) they told me I had stabilized sufficiently enough to go home and rest before the procedure.

     Needless to say I had much to contemplate after leaving the hospital. My friends thought I had been damaged because I kept babbling about this weird stuff! I still get people who are so unwilling to believe me because it shakes their belief tree so hard – that they think my cheese is slipping off my cracker, so to speak.

     The true nature of reality and of life had been exposed. I now knew first hand that we don't die with our body. If I stayed conscious, and the Absolute could comfort me, and my deceased friend could answer my questions – there could be only one logical conclusion to be drawn.

     There was the added consideration that what we call God does exist – because He spoke to me and eased my fear and suffering. So for the next two months while awaiting the corrective procedure, I deeply contemplated my experiences, and so would you. I also continued in my efforts to become a fledgling author, in an attempt to quantify and share my experiences for the benefit of others. Most people are like I was; too arrogant, too self absorbed, and too conditioned by society to stoop low enough to give any thought to the ultimate purpose for life.

     When the day came for the corrective procedure (ablation), I went to the hospital lacking the usual fear. I already knew that no matter what happens to us in this life – we are alright. Boy was I in for a ride, another rough one.

     The surgery went very wrong. I drowned on my own vomit in the mask, in the middle of the procedure. They didn't notice until it was too late and my oxygen levels fell to zero! I died again! They spent the next several hours trying to bring me back and stabilize me – but I still wouldn't breath on my own – at all. My family said the two or three hour operation became an over seven hour exercise, while the P. A. system repeatedly called out "code white, and code blue" (a dying and combative patient) as people rushed in and out of the operating room. I guess I put up quite a fight.

     I woke up the next day in the Intensive Care Unit, with a fistful of tubes hanging out of my mouth, and in all but a few exempt orifices, like ear canals! There came into view a kindly nurse, whose first words to me were; "We were hoping you'd start breathing on your own again!" 19 hrs in a coma on a breathing apparatus turned out to be my second education. Then they started pulling tubes out of the bulk of my bodily ports – there were a lot of them.

     As I slowly gathered my scattered thoughts, and got my poop in a group so to speak, I found that I was more consciously together than I was to start with! I knew things I didn't know before. I seemed to have had the benefit of a metaphysical education at the University of Cosmic Consciousness, or U.C.C. as I like to call it. I later learned that this near death education was fairly common, and always left the participant knowing the same basic things. I saw that as credibility. Why we would all short-circuit in different ways, with different mind-sets – and yet still receive the same general information, is beyond chance.

     I had been gifted with an inherent explanation, and developed a reawakened instinct. I instantly understood that life, all life – is a single conscious metaphysical energy. All DNA is one metaphysically based ecosystem. I also found that when I studied science and spirituality – I was now able to more easily separate the shit from the shine-o-la. This caused me to basically re-learn everything I had been taught or was conditioned to believe, most of which was in error. Starting at square one as it is called – I started reworking the inputs with what I now knew.

     History and archaeological falsehoods became readily apparent. Once I understood how the ancients got their inexplicably accurate information, in the same fashion as I was getting it – I could read the hieroglyphs, esoteric symbols, and the cuneiform (picture writing) better than the supposed experts on TV! Knowing they were all telling the same story helped too!

     I found myself obsessed with collecting particular types of information, and found myself more adept at sorting through it like never before. Had I become what was called Enlightened, Illuminated, had I Awakened, and other such euphemisms for this – had the Veil dropped for me?

     At first I told myself (despite what was happening to me!) that it wasn't possible, and that I wasn't special – because after all, who am I but nobody. Then as I adjusted to this new state of being – I realized the big lie! The lie we were told was that only special people in the remote past could experience these things. This is a blatant falsehood, Creation and evolution is an ongoing process – and not something that only happened to special people in the remote past.

      This thing that was happening to me as a result of my experiences, and the desire in my heart born of my own free will to seek and understand – were in fact expressly for the regular guy........the nobody's. This is what was meant by the statement that the meek will inherit the earth. You don't need a single material thing to get this, nor does another human give it to you, this is as free as free can be. Relying on the material world or another lost and confused human being for it – doesn't work in case anybody didn't notice. These were the formulae for spiritual awakening and discovery of the hidden true nature of reality. This was for every last single nobody!

     As I continued my amateur research and studied these subjects, acts of synchronicity became commonplace. Weird information, specific to my quest, came my way – in often the strangest most unlikely ways, and from often the most unlikely sources.

     I started meditating "free-style" and getting solid results, like the ones we hear about. I have experienced automatic writing a few times. I was shown and had explained to me some details about Creation in a waking vision (the strongest link other than dying). And occasionally while meditating deeply I am shown things in the same way as the ancients received this information; through the Intelligible Light all around us we need but remember how to connect to.

     I was shown what is inside of a black hole! Inside a black hole is an expanding universe! We live in one! I have had a few peeks at the Akashic Records (or the Book of Life as Christians call it), and was made to understand how this record in space/time works. I explain it in my other books.

     Once while in the hospital, I linked myself with another person I had an affinity with, and brought their heart rate down to my own when they were experiencing difficulty. I knew I could mess with my own bodily functions above what we are told we can do – but that was the first time I had ever externalized it. With a little practice and a firm grip on the true unadulterated version of reality, these effects become more pronounced – and experiential success validates the concepts by employing them meaningfully. The notion that we can heal ourselves and others to some degree at least, is a fact.

     The negative effect of this wonderful knowledge becomes painfully obvious however; and I would be negligent not to warn you about it - and explain it to you. Everything that is wrong with the world becomes painfully obvious as well. Sorry for cursing; but there are no adequate verbs in the vernacular without vulgarity to convey this – it fucking hurts! It isn't a pleasant realization – and I can understand why Jesus and others wept for the world. When you grasp our current situation fully, if you have any feelings – it hurts.

     Alright; that's enough about me, my emotions, about my problems and attributes, and my shameless self promotion (which I abhor). But I had to explain experientially where some of this information came from – lest my credibility come into question. Just ask yourself what the payoff for what I do is? Ridicule, hard work without pay? Perhaps it's the abuse we suffer at the hands of those we try to awaken?

     You might consider my motivation – versus the negative profit margins and mockery this exposes me to. Fortunately I was born with an abundance of intestinal fortitude, which enables me to say what I say – without fear of consequence. Many people who have these experiences keep it to themselves for the above reasons. If more spoke out – more would consider it. Some will listen, some will not; such is the nature of this work.

     Spirituality wasn't enough for me alone; even with what I experienced – so engrained are the falsehoods in our minds. So I went the left-brained scientific route as well. I wrote six books in four years as a result! This is my seventh book.

     I studied the new cutting edge future sciences until I became well educated enough to ask the science gurus all the wrong questions (wrong for them – but right for us)! I am not knocking science as a concept to explain reality; but for some of the more narrow minded reductionists and materialists – science has become the preferred belief system for atheists. There are just as many "don't ask questions" in the academia, as in theology!

     Intelligent design is one example. Not the church version where they mistakenly believe they already have the answer – and then construct selective method to prove it. The kind of intelligent design that struck people like Einstein, Newton, Schrodinger, and the great free thinkers we can thank for propelling us forward. Contrary to popular belief, if you exclude the silly version – Intelligent Design is an ongoing problem in pretty much every department of the sciences.

     As a matter of fact if you scratch around for yourself a little (something not encouraged lest you question) – you'll find it is for this very reason that we have infinite multiple universe theories. There is absolutely no way, not even for the most dogmatic, materialist, reductionist scientist, to explain the odds against our being here (in pretty much every department i.e. atoms, the cosmos, biology, and consciousness) without proposing an endless amount of failed universes to select from – of which "we" are the Goldilocks version. The one "everything" worked out in!

     This is what I like to call the Great Lottery Theory – where you have to win a lottery with ridiculously poor odds – just to get a ticket to enter an equally unlikely lottery – and win by the way! Science believes in a "Horton Hears a Who" reality after all! Any betting person would shrink away from such odds, yet science employs them to explain away the design of life.

     And they call those who employ spirituality to explain reality, desperate and delusional! In some ways science pushes the limits of credibility, at least as far as spirituality does with the notion that Nature or God came first – and had and has a hand in it. Evolution "as" God – is not a contrary notion.

     There really are three answers and it depends who you ask. I think you'll like this little spiel – because it speaks volumes of truth. 1) To a devout strictly materialistic scientist there is nothing but the material; anything else is either nonexistent or an irrelevant consideration. 2) To a philosopher; only spirit, and how you feel about it matters – the material considerations are irrelevant and an illusion. 3) The true spiritualist however considers both; and believes that both the physical material, and the non-material or metaphysical essences - exist both as manifestations of spirit.

     Tribal Shaman, Mystics, Alchemists, Occultists, and the Ancients saw it this way. They built a lot of temples to make statements to this end also.

     There is also much of what we are conditioned to consider evil to do with spirituality. Spiritualists believe in God; perhaps at least as much as a religionist – it is just that what they believe won't fall within the very narrow parameters of dogma infused faith. The definition of Spirituality after all is merely the belief that the spirit or consciousness is maintained beyond the rent or the veil of death. This notion includes many belief systems.

     I found a lot of pertinent information in what is deemed occult spirituality, and occult science. There are also countless Christian-Mystics I guess you could call them, who have spent their lives trying to expand upon the limited landscape of dogma.

     We need not blindly accept anything; but we have been convinced that scrutiny is stubbornly refusing to look at other information. Real scrutiny and debunking takes place only when we consider all the information – and then make an informed decision. That burns a lot of holes – but it's true. You'd be surprised at the results of a wider education.

     The other thing "The Voice" told me when I came out of it the first time – was to look around with "fresh eyes" and learn something. So I did. What I was to learn became brutally apparent and equally shocking coming from what we call God. I saw something sad – that we all need to address.

     I was in a ward full of people who were either dying, on the brink, or in dire straits; much like I was. But I was immediately appalled by how fearful and self-centered they were! And the really bad part was; the more they were what we would call religious in conventional terms – the more they were crapping cinderblocks at the prospect of checking out! I wasn't scared anymore – WTF was wrong with them?

     I had been led to believe that religious people had secured their metaphysical address with God. Yet I never met a bunch of more fearful people! While I, a mere nobody, was more curious than afraid – they were terrified. Lesson one; religion as we know it is weak and serves us poorly (most of us at least) – because it is a watered down weak version (geared for nobodies like you and me I might regretfully add).

     Why was God showing me this; and how could I possibly explain this to anybody! If people have a belief in God – what I know is going to pee them off more than a little if I try and tell them. So people who have faith; often figure I am a bit of an amateur Anti-Christ for what I profess.

     Those people as I said earlier; that place the entire explanation for life on science, and forgot to include themselves, the observer and the one experiencing – brand you the opposite way for trying to convince them there is an underlying component and special element to life hidden in the observer! To them; I became a religious nut!

     Then there are those who look at this and say; "So what?" Those preoccupied with money and material concerns just look at this type of information and decree; "I don't even care if it is true, because there is nothing I can do about it anyway – so it doesn't affect or concern me." Nero fiddled while Rome burned – and now we know why.

     Why would a loving and benevolent Creator save my unimportant ass; just to give me such a miserable task? Everybody I know has given me "that look" at some time or another.

     Then the impeccable design of life became apparent. God had made me an outspoken; take no shit kind of guy for a reason. Like I said earlier; I've always been rough around the edges, and being that way has always served me well. I was never cruel (with minimal exceptions), had a sense of fair play (generally speaking), but I never ran away from a good honest fight over a can of beans (to say the least). At the age of 50 – I now knew why I had worn this suit in this life. I wasn't the standard fare; because I had all along been in store for this awakening, and the task at hand.

     So again; how do I explain this to people – it is indeed more than a light challenge. Perhaps it won't even come to fruition in this life? I got roped into this by a higher power. I am not complaining, I wouldn't dare, and I gladly accept the challenge. But I won't kid myself about what I'm up against.

     Back to the big question of how I know this stuff, and why anyone should believe me, I again might ask you to consider my motivation. How I know is easy; if you will consider my experiences not fabricated, or an electrical or chemical overload as science suggests. Given the above consideration; I also know when someone else writes about their near death experiences - who is full of it, and who really experienced it. Having had been there myself – gives me an edge. I am trying to share that with you.

     When I compared my spiritual experiences with the ones in the most ancient spiritual texts – I found that they were the by far the most accurate in both describing and explaining the phenomenon I experienced. These texts were the stuff of secret societies for a reason. A reason probably concealed from the bulk of even its own members.

     I became a reasonably good spiritual detective, and I uncovered the dirtiest spiritual secret from our prehistory. Knowing this exposes the false religious belief associated with the great lie - that there really are separate belief systems. It just is not true.

     Every religion today has a more ancient teaching behind it – associated with what is called the Ancient Mystery School Teachings. If that wasn't bad enough; to conceal the foundation and root of a belief system – "why" is even worse. All the religions are in fact founded on one and the same Mystery School. The same one that built pyramids as temples of initiation when Christ stomped the terra! A dirty little secret indeed!

     Ergo; the Guardians of the Great Truth – really are the Keepers of the Great Lie! This job only gets tougher! I have to assume the satisfaction derived from biting into such a task, and hopefully succeeding a little at getting through to at least a few people - will be commensurate with the difficulty. You know; spiritual capital and all that.

     But wait; there's more! This ancient spiritual knowledge is much older than we might imagine given the current falsehoods in our history books. This knowledge was from a still more ancient and lost cultured society that was destroyed in a cataclysm or deluge! This all starts to fit to come together if you'll consider it. Tales of Atlantis, great floods in Bibles, and ancient prehistory are all the same story. Just like all the different versions of a Creation and a Creator are all the same stories.

     I also am not quite done with the shock factor for the spiritually timid. The Garden of Eden – was the Garden of Atlantis. I can't be any clearer than that. The early First Testament stuff – is the same stuff in the pre-sand Egyptian texts. I am not offended by that personally. I rejoice in the validation that these premises are true – by the separate confirmations in the multiple renditions for them.

     These earlier texts were written on clay tablets with what they called cylinder seals. A cylinder seal is like a big stone rolling pin with carved writing on it, that they rolled onto wet clay tablets and then baked and dried them. The concept of the printing press was merely a more modern version of this more ancient one. My point is that these tablets are considered by some to be from approximately 8,000 BC!

     Then I learned that the information on these already ancient tablets; was claimed by the writers themselves – to be tens of thousands of years older than that! To repeat myself; this doesn't make Bibles (of any sort) unworthy by any stretch of the imagination. What it does is give us the secret keys to better interpret the romanticized parables and spiritual euphemisms contained within! It's a good thing! This is why this knowledge is so taboo!

     Look at this in another way - Bibles are not God. Not any Bible. Bibles were written by men trying to interpret the experiences they were having. Experiences that clued them into the true nature of reality – as both the Buddha and Christ expressed clearly. Bibles are Esoteric Channelled Manuscripts written by witnesses to help you attain the same realizations as our favourite prophets (again – pick one)! Bibles, all bibles; are in essence manuals for self-realization.

     We have it wrong! True Spirituality is something we are to experience for ourselves, and not through anyone else. They can tell you about it, show you how it's done – but the rest is, and always has been up to each individual. I'll pop the last bubble now. Nobody can die for you, or learn the truth about life for you. We all get to do that by the inevitable design of mortality and cyclic life – for ourselves.

     I like to use the analogy of "river rafting" to drive home my point. Believing that God is in a book, or that someone else has already learned your lessons for you – negates the entire purpose for life to exist.......to experience. This widely accepted although greatly misconstrued belief is akin to believing that reading a pamphlet about river rafting – is the equivalent to experiencing the activity. It is like the Nintendo version of spirituality; it isn't really enlightenment like it says on the cartridge. It is about spirituality at best, and sadly sometimes - barely.

     Consequently; neither I, nor anyone else can experience spirituality for you. All anyone can do is provide the information and some guidance for you to consider. You have to cruise your own raft. We all do by design eventually – I'm just more than inclined to believe that it matters if we figure this stuff out before we physically die.

     I feel that I was spared to undertake a mission, to answer a calling as many have called it. I am far from perfect, I am nobody special, and I am just as prone to poor choices as anyone else – I just know better now!

     Returning once again to the issue of my credibility and how I received this information, I have another angle to present to you. After being exposed to my theory that all religions, as are all Gods; One and the same – every religion will start to sound alike (this is the opposite of what is claimed). When every belief system seems to be infused with the same gist – you are starting to get it. Them – not so much!!!

     The best part is that once you arrive at the above point consciously, you begin to achieve what is called clarity. With even a rudimentary dose of clarity – comes the ability to better separate the "shit from the shine-o-la." What one belief system got wrong, or missed – is nicely complimented by the other versions for the same thing. And the best part is that you can see it now.

     This is the point of such knowledge. Because trust me on this; in a world full of bibles written by men and interpreted by men – the notion that the odd one is lacking is anything but crazy. Once you get that these are all just different interpretations and that they are nothing more or less than the same universal truth – this gets way easier to sort out.

     What I am telling you from experience is; that if you take the time to put all this together for yourself, and apply a little heart (O.K. a lot of heart!) – the blanks get filled in. A decent answer means the question was correct – if you'll humour me. When you start to see how physical life is actually operating on a metaphysical operating system; you begin to see the connections between everything. These are the connections that we normally miss when we only consider the physical. These answers; unlike many posed by science – don't generate more questions than they answer!

     The genuine credibility achieved personally by this method – is the formula for our true evolution of the soul. The only thing we take with us from this life; are the improvements we consciously gained during our experience. Not a single possession, not a red cent, and not a single physical fetter – pass over with us. What does pass over with us; I would attempt to describe as "spiritual capital." It is who we are, what we learned, and what we believe that matters.

     The near death experiences, the spiritual epiphanies, the religious experiences, astral travelling (remote viewing and out of body experiences), contact from the other side, shamanic visions, acts of clairvoyance, healing ourselves and others (often remotely), and the bulk of similar phenomenon – are all the same act of a partial or complete separation from our body (vessel, vehicle, or container).

     All the above effects are only possible because we are not merely a body and a brain as science tells us. If we can exit our vehicle, yet maintain our consciousness remotely – then we really do have the basic gist of life backwards.

     The body is an option. The spirit remains intact. The Buddha, Christ, Mohammed, and all our spiritual greats tried to tell us this same thing in different ways. Nature or what we call God – came first.

     So if we apply a corrective lens to our physical life; the belief that we don't consciously cease with our vessel or vehicle – no longer seems like a fantasy. It is exposed as the operating system of this reality.

     If I was able to make you consider just that; that we have much of the concept for our life and consciousness sort of backwards – you'll get the rest. This truth starts to stick out like a sore thumb to a consciously awakened being. We are not mere mortals trying to become spiritual beings. We are spiritual beings having an experience.

      Bibles make good sense to me now; instead of seeming like a bunch of confusing parables. If your bible doesn't make sense to you – consider that you lack some keys, or initial inputs.

I like nothing better than a good bible now – but I read them all. If something resonates with you, accept it. If something doesn't, keep looking. Something else will, I guarantee it.

     Be the open minded child you were born as. The closed minded materialist who believes that all that truly exists is physical and can be hammered on – is starting to see the error of their ways. Science is exposing the opposite position and discovering that it is the invisible minutia behind what we see that perpetuates the physical display. I repeat; we will eventually get this.

     All the separate bibles have the same remote control author. There are not 100 Gods, nor 100 Creations – they are merely variations of the same theme. There is only one self generating Absolute. The thing that "big banged" - if that makes it more comprehendible.

     Light helpers or Angels if you will; are everywhere. The ancient tribal cultures just called it the Spirit Realm; and they called the entities they found there – the Ancestors. One day we will all join them. The natives had this right, many ten of thousands of years prior to the advent of organized religion.

     A better defined spirit as the innate intelligence behind life; the mystery of nature, and the riddle of God – are the unification we seek. A science which refuses to factor in the observer, the beauty and design of nature, and the experience of discovery, will never find unification. The true unified theory must temper what we experience – with how we experience it. The missing input is us; and the special component we have thus far failed to meaningfully quantify.

     We cycle between being the operating system and the participant. On both sides we learn. On the other side we rest. In this life we work to transform this energy. We too are light workers in the difficult physical realm.

     How do I know this stuff? So do you! We just all have to work at remembering it. I had a little help getting there – so I am just trying to return the favour by being of service to you.

     If you were to review my books in order they would tell a tale of my awakening. The first book was my initial realization that in many ways we are being fed a pile of baloney about this life experience. The Conspiracy Science and Religious Heresy of life had been exposed to me intellectually – in my day to day life. First you have to see and recognize what is wrong.

     Then I went on an esoteric mystery hunt, and wrote my second book; Black Hole Shamanism. Half way through the second book I had my first near death experience. The last half of the book reflects this thought process.

     By my third book; A Message From the Highest Vibration – I was getting more comfortable with my new sight, and better at writing about it (or so I hope)! I liked my third attempt to explain this very much – because it was peppered with experience.

     This Question and Answer version in shorter form – is my seventh book. I had a lot of people ask me some tough questions. I softened them up best I could, but I didn't remove the tougher questions and answered them all. What good would I be if I did not?

     As "out there" as I am sure much of this might first come across as; if you do a little free-thinking and independently confirm the points I brought forward for yourself – the dots will start to connect to form a picture. One; I trust you will find more satisfactory than the ones that left us confused.

     There is much good science deemed "fringe science" or "theoretical" worth investigation for your self. Science is like detective work; given the same facts – the better Sherlock figures this out first. And if you look at history; the first guy or gal to figure out something radically different from the accepted propaganda – has always been marginalized or worse. The "odd duck" is where the action is – it always has been.

     As for religion – who needs it anymore? God is great, and a better defined God does exist. As always it is His fan clubs that suck. The Church (pick one) has everybody convinced that you need them to find God (for their own benefit of course). Nothing could be further from the truth.

     You are your own spiritual center unto yourself and self contained – the Temple is in you.

     Spirituality and Bibles, as are the Sciences which forage discovery, and the Arts and Music that move us, and the Mystery of Nature we marvel at – are all worthy pursuits. This information is to be found in every Channelled Manuscript (all bibles), in the Creative Arts, in the very design of Nature, in the construction of the Cosmos, and in every act of "experiencing" the above.

     The Journey as it was said; is more important than Arriving. Life is more about how you get there; and the little decisions and course corrections you implement along the way – of your own free will.

     Don't be afraid to question or consider anything – to do so would suppress your true nature as an evolving spiritual child of the universe. I know these things the same way you can and will.

     I'd like to end with a little metaphysical rant.

     We are in effect; individuations or monads – of the Cosmic Soul. A human being is the way a Universe experiences itself. We are the temporarily isolated portals of the manifold of consciousness we call God. No man as it is said; is an Island unto himself.

     In the beginning; there was "You" – only you don't grasp that yet. If you were not there in the beginning – you wouldn't be here now. If we don't die – that has to be true.

     Likewise; in a sense – we are not born, at least not from nothing. We were here before we are now, and we will be here long after it is said we are gone. In truth; we always were.

     This is why we metaphorically return to God, our Creator. It is because we came from there. Scientifically we are an Infinite Fractal Hologram. Spiritually we are an Image or Likeness of that which is inside of everything. We are special. Nobody explains that properly or tells us why, least of all the reductionists and materialists.

     When you look up at the Cosmos and the night sky; smile because you are home. You always were. That which you see as magnificent and endless – is what is inside you. You are what you see; the totality of it – turned "outside in." Inversely; what is out there – is you and I turned "inside out." This is what the Big Bang really was – a flipping inside out.

     And what runs this fantastic infinite evolving process? Consciousness as you and I experience it! Everything is Intelligible Light! Some of this Light is in the form of instructions – and some of this Light is the conscious experience. Some of this Light is beyond our current scope of perception and detection. Some of this Light has become crystallized in space/time into the building blocks of life – into Sacred Geometry.

     Still other conscious rays have been congealed into more malleable portable Vessels of Light – you and I my friends – the Gift made Flesh. We also draw in this creational energy to our center, and we send this special light out to others and our Creator. This interplay is the game of life – the real one. The distractions are just that; distractions.

     The atomic and sub-atomic bits are called "quanta" for a reason – they contain information. The atoms and the bits they are made of – contain the information from the big bang up until now, possibly more. This is the Intelligible Light spoken of by the Ancient Priest Kings.

     The biology is without a doubt – also information. Intelligible Light is everywhere it seems! With the consideration that the DNA does not contain all the necessary information as was once thought internally; but that it actually gathers it from a shared metaphysical  intelligence in the environment (a shared field of intelligible light) – speaks the same truth. The cosmic weave of the DNA like everything else is a tool and manifesting of information. Ergo; the power really is in the blood.

     The information we are made from comes from outside our body more so than from inside. It is generated by the constant flux of the fabric of space/time – the ether. The programming is reflected in the DNA, much as our consciousness is a reflection in our brain. If you actually believe science has it over on spirituality; you still haven't realized that science as great as it is – still is unable to answer the difficult questions. Questions like; what came first, the chicken or the egg? Questions like; what came first, Nature or Matter?

     The Cosmos is also viewed as information by the brightest pioneers of science – because it is. Everything in our reality is made of information displayed as matter and energy – or light if you will. And any scientific Sherlock worth his salt will tell you that the information is never destroyed, ever – it just changes states. Everything from the Cosmic Wheels, to the Biological Machine-works, right down to the Atomic Sub-strata is Light. Light you can't wreck – no matter what you do to it!

     This leaves Consciousness and how we experience life. That our consciousness is information should be obvious to all but the least astute. Consciousness is the most tactile and tenacious energy form that exists – why should we believe that it is the exception to the rule and terminates with our body (the star).  Electro-magnetism behaves like light for a good reason – it is. Those storms in our brains they can measure by electro-magnetic means – are also Intelligible Light. Now stop and consider that it might all work the same way – from a shared field of information above the individuation.

     Life is like a grand radio signal (also a wave) that contains all the possible stations. We are like a receiver and antennae. Our consciousness is a receiver – and our unique body configuration is our individual antenna. Your unique brain and every associated nerve path is part and parcel of the same antenna.

     Learn to use what you were given; this is the point of life – not hoarding and fearfulness. Religion without experience; is just a pamphlet about life. Go write your own brochure; written from experience. My pledge to you is this; if you understood the unification of spirituality I provided......and are willing to actually put a little skin in the game (skin already in the game I might add).......I have given you the greatest gift of Illumination – the knowledge of Intelligible Light.

     For those who might say I contradicted myself, or made some angry, or have a bunch wrong – I thank you from the bottom of my heart. For if I failed to do those things it would mean I was ineffectual. It is the shaking of poorly laid foundations that are in need of repair I sought – and not the acceptance of meaningless fairytales and implausible science.

     Always remember; you are a Star with many powers - Wellness, Truth, and Love for All......................

#### 1 – Q & A

Q: Why does it matter if I know this stuff about the life after death state, and what happens in the invisible world?

A: Death is inescapable physically; not a single one of us gets out alive (physically) and it is by design. Knowing "this stuff" matters - because we will all end up there, for real! Non-physical, non-local consciousness – is not at all how we are accustomed to experiencing our consciousness.

     As a metaphor; let's say you were taking a long trip to another country or land. The customs, language, and environment would be unfamiliar, and it would be many years before we would return home. Would we not be better served by familiarizing ourselves with the rules, customs, and language of that other land?

     Knowing about where we all eventually go – allows us to take advantage of any opportunities for growth we find there (and here). It also eliminates the needless fear we have about death; which is for the most part generated by a fear of the unknown.

Q: Is reincarnation true? Why would we reincarnate repeatedly before becoming a permanent spirit?

A: Just like children, a soul starts out as a child. You can't send a kindergarten level child to university. We don't spend a single day in preschool, one day in elementary school, one day in high school, and then go to college or university the day after!

     Instead we spend many days in each level of schooling in order to learn enough to progress to the next level. At each stage we must learn all that can be learned. The afterlife reflects this process through the soul being cyclic. Reincarnation also addresses the inequities of life; with the notion of cyclic rebirth and Karmic debt.

Q: Much of this is considered esoteric and occult – why should I believe any of this?

A: You would be hard pressed to find a subject more Mystical, Esoteric, and Supernatural, than a Supreme Being or a Creator. Yet for some reason any thinking above the bland and mundane in regards to the most extraordinary subject of life – is considered occult, evil, and so on. Creation and Creator, or life after death; no matter the verbs employed – is a study of the esoteric.

     Don't buy into such a limited construct for your self – or what you call God. Stars as signs in the Heavens, virgin births, resurrections, and spirituality at large, are completely esoteric subjects which require higher thought. If not we might actually believe that Samson was only strong when he had long hair; rather than get that it was a parable about letting yourself be fooled and having your freedom and power taken away for it. Over a girl yet – how typical!

Q: Do we experience the same friends and people in different lives?

A: Yes; we experience many of the same friends and foes through the effects of causation. Karma can become Kama. Kama is like Karma – only you pay the Karmic debt in another life.

     Say you owe someone "big-time" for always being there for you – yet you never get to pay them back before you (or they) die. In subsequent lives the debt will be repaid. In another incarnation you will be called upon to be there for someone else. Further proof of this is intuitive.

     When we meet somebody for the first time (or so we think), and immediately like and trust them (or the opposite) – it is an act of subconscious recognition. You don't remember them; but you remember you can trust them. It is because our spirit recognizes an old friend even if we don't. When we like or dislike, and receive negative or positive vibes from people we meet – it is on occasion dictated by former experiences. All conscious interplay is an act of recognition.

Q: Sciences greatest argument against the notion that God exists is; alright then – "Who made God?"

A: If God had to rely on anything else for His existence – He wouldn't be God! Something else would be the First Cause and the Absolute – and not God. It is a very flawed question. The definition of God is; the only self generator, the First and Last, and the Alpha and Omega, for a good reason.

     This is why "the first cause" is always absent from view. This is why the "thing" we are always looking for eludes us. It is because what we are looking for is the thing looking! It is consciousness! God, or the Absolute, and the First Cause – is consciousness.

     The consciousness with which we seek; intended to Create and Saw that It Was Good. The first cause, the fundamental principle of operation, and the primordial element; was awareness – much as we experience it. This is why we don't die.

     Think of it like the operating system for life. While academics might argue that this doesn't answer the question – I urge you to consider their answer.

     According to science, a dot (the first seed atom); was "just there" (sort of like God) – and just big banged for no particular reason. If the fact that everything in our universe visible and not visible came from a single atom isn't enough; you might consider that with no consciousness to intend this to happen, or to "See That It Was Good" – it wouldn't have happened.

     Then we might ask how consciousness was embedded into the fabric of space/time. Because if you buy into the standard explanation that stuff just randomly bumped into other stuff for no reason, by chance; until it started to become conscious – I have a bridge to sell you! We have consciousness – because the universe does........Right from the Word Go!

     We "just are" because what we call God "just is." Once you realize that consciousness is indeed the ground of all being – causation and the ability of life to self organize and develop further complexity is also explained by this. This is more than I can say for the premise that life is a fluke which serves little or no purpose. The facts say otherwise.

     I retort; who made the dot, who or what made it big bang – and how did it embed Intelligible Light into everything. With no operating system – life would not self organize and evolve. I would ask if science can explain the inherent beauty we observe in nature with the same premise. Why would a "fluke" be so beautiful and self organizing amid impossible odds? The Mystery of Nature; is the Operating System for God.

Q: Will we recognize others who have passed on before us in the spirit realm?

A: We recreate our ethereal body, or "light-body" from the essence of who we are. The "blueprint" if you will recall. This especially applies to the state of consciousness or personality of the individual after physical death also.

     There is no transformative power after we pass over; which is the reason for life in the first place – to transform this energy. Those who were good here will be good there. All the traits and visual dimensions that constitute the entity you knew still exist. In other words; if a person is a certain way here – they will be the same certain way there.

Q: Do we meet our all loved ones on the other side? Does it matter what or how they believed in God?

A: Yes we do. Everyone gets there eventually as all Bibles claimed. Lost sheep are recovered. Some of them might reincarnate longer until they learn what they did not as earth spirits. But really in the greater scheme of things – that doesn't matter in the end.

     Since time is merely a location to spirit, and we all eventually attain full spirit status; at a future point in time and location – we can. To answer the question, some just take longer. But taking longer in a venue or matrix where time is merely a location, and spirit has access to all of it – still means we meet. They just might have a few more stories to tell; which needn't ultimately be viewed as a bad thing.

Q: What happens to someone who commits suicide?

A: This is an exceptionally tough question for me and others who have lost someone this way. While nobody can know 100% and every experience is not identical; this was the best information in the ancient material I could find.

     They suffer what we call Purgatory. It is claimed that they suffer a type of contemplative limbo-state until the time that they should have naturally died. They learn their lesson by being temporarily consciously detained, and by being suspended and unable to build their next "light-body" until the time that they should have normally expired. They wait; until they should have died to get another shot at it.

     The reason for this is so that in the next life or incarnation, the spirit will "subconsciously" remember the suffering suicide causes (to them and others). Next time instead of taking the easy way out and avoiding the lesson, the entity will subconsciously choose to endure the difficult life experience, which is required for his or her soul growth.

Q: Does cremation affect our spirit in any way?

A: Our true essence is consciousness. Spirit is a metaphysical property; which is what renders it indestructible and impervious. What you really are is the information that made you – not the material body you occupy. We are physically constructed of recyclable elements.

     You are in a very factual way, made of the earth. Try and hurt dirt! It doesn't matter what happens to your abandoned mortal coil. Burn it, compost it, give the good parts away, blow it to bits, recycle it, or invent a new way – once we exit our physical vehicle it doesn't matter what we do with the dirt.

Q: If we cycle or reincarnate – why don't we remember our other lives?

A: This is a blessing by design. If we could recall our lessons from our previous lives with our waking conscious self – it would negate this experience. We would be burdened with the previous pain we might have received or dealt out. We would have instilled in us the baggage from our previous experiences, as if we were a victim and villain from birth.

     It would make for a tainted life journey. Some of us have been less than desirable in previous lives. Some of us have endured a miserable existence before; as history will attest to. How could we grow and learn bearing the burden of all the baggage of our past lives and deeds?

     On the other hand as I stated earlier; subconsciously we do remember. At the scale of what builds us; we do. When we fear heights or water for just one example – it is a subconscious memory. Your fears, hopes, and aspirations are your previous lives – the greater you. The same thing applies to our natural latent abilities. A child with inexplicable abilities to create music, or art, or to forage discovery, is proof of this natural process. This is why and how our subconscious mysteriously guides us. One could say we remember subconsciously – however with our waking consciousness we don't know it.

Q: Why do we perceive birth as a joyous event, and death as a sad event?

A: Because we are only considering our physical existence. Because we mistakenly believe that life is a fluke, it serves no purpose – and therefore the only relevant concern is for physical existence.

     We do normally celebrate birth, and grieve over death. But; if we really understood that being born is being temporarily cast down into a third dimensional reality full of pain and suffering in the form of lessons – then being liberated from it by death would take on an entirely different flavour!

     What we do currently is like celebrating being incarcerated – and weeping hysterically upon being freed. Physically we have every right to grieve. Spiritually we have it backwards. Death is an act of creation. This is why most religions tell us that the gateway to life is through death. At both ends of a mortal life cycle we find creative acts.

     This life is Work – that Life is Rest. Both are required. So in a way – we should celebrate both acts of Creation. The Physical Creation we suffer through to evolve the greater spirit is an opportunity. The Spiritual Creation we experience upon our sudden or eventual demise; is in turn - an opportunity to rest and build a new vehicle to correct what we got wrong – and get it right.

Q: How does our "center" or heart spark of God, the soul, or our "seed atom," build and coordinate the physical aspects of our individual body?

A: Everything is ultimately constructed of light at every conceivable vibration! This works by resonance frequency and harmonics; the Word properly explained. Your center or seed atom vibrates at its own specific harmonic which is individual to you – your individuation.

     This works much like how a snare drum resonates to a similar tone or vibration, or how a similarly configured tuning fork will "sing" or vibrate in unison to a corresponding note or vibration. This is how spiritual euphemisms such as Angels singing praise and glory were meant to be understood meaningfully, by the way. The "seed atom" instructs the other atoms. The essence of you is like a solitary atom – which configures the rest of the atoms in your body according to the instructions (or singing) it emanates.

     The study of Cymatics (the study of applied vibrations to media to generate geometric structures) illustrates this nicely. If you place a sheet over a speaker lying on its back and cover the sheet with sand or different liquids and play various tones – geometric shapes are generated. Sound creates geometry!

     The older way to show this was to use a glass plate and apply the bow from a violin. The bow being rubbed on the edge of the plate will also generate differing geometries in the applied medium, according to the bow used, speed of the draw, and the coarseness of the material used on the plate, etcetera. Sound is a vibration, and it makes geometry when it interacts with matter.

     Our body and how we and all our components work; are the same way as the Grand Signal works! Creation sings to you; you sing back – and create. Thus we are constructed of a grand signal which is scripturally referred to as Word. So you see; we really are modeled after the upper fractal. The same operating system that made our cosmos makes biology, consciousness, atoms, and pretty much anything you can think of.

Q: Why are all Angels portrayed as having wings? I have never had a decent explanation for the wings on an Angel!

A: Yes and no! Yes they have something we might mistakenly call wings. No they are not wings as we know them. This is another perceptive deficit from our physical dimension. Clairvoyants and Spiritualists claim they are lines of force emanating from higher beings, just like the perception of a Halo.

     The wings are an "aura-like" higher dimensional energy which some have glimpsed in Angelic Light Beings. They are the visible emanations of power from an Angel - a greater aura. Perhaps we might define them as the radiations from a higher ranking Angel.

    One thing for sure; Angels are not birds, and they don't need physical wings to get around! And if some have visually seen the Halo – surely some have glimpsed the emanations from the body that generate the aura.

Q: Are all human beings "old souls" or are new souls being created all the time?

A: This is also cyclic, and works in groupings. For perhaps millions of years now, these spirits have had repeated embodiments. Without exception; everyone on the earth now – has had multiple incarnations in different environments. When the Buddha was asked by a student how many times we reincarnate – his response affirmed this notion. The Buddha answered the student by telling him that each mans bones would make a mountain!

     Some entertain the notion that the same spirit we are now, started as goo in a primordial earth swamp. That we have been every form of life before us however; does not mean new spirit is not created. We just have a small perspective on the over all program; all the divisions of the One are one soul – yet those divisions fall into groupings. It depends on which group perspective is employed.

Q: What is the origin of life?

A: To a scientist the answer given might be amino acid, or protoplasm, or some other biological building block as a precursor for more complex biology. A biology embedded comet from space perhaps. The standard scientific answer deals entirely with form and tends to ignore causation. It is life itself that builds the forms and uses it for a time.

     The instructions, the intentions, and desires always came before the material. The intention to create always comes before "seeing that it is good."

     Life; true life – has neither origin nor termination. How the dead originate – might be a better question in a self-generating system of conscious interplay. The origin of life is what remains after the life.

Q: Why are snowflakes uniquely crystalline, and not just similar clumps?

A: This question goes to the heart of the true nature and structure of reality. The scientific answer revolves around merely observing that this takes place; with no actual explanation for why? If that sounds like bull-pucky; go scratch around for yourself in the standard malarkey. You won't find a reasonable answer – just a complex description.

     The answer you will find; says something like this. As the water turns into ice in the upper atmosphere; it crystallizes into infinitely unique patterns – and falls to the earth as snow. The question of "why" they form as crystals, and why not two snowflakes are ever made the same – got passed over for the physical details.

     The ancients pondered this deeply, because they knew it said more about the true nature of reality – than we do. They understood that this was a peek at the invisible (metaphysical) energies – at the boundary state of where matter forms. They knew that this Sacred Geometry was a reflection of the Ether (also known as the fabric of space/time to a scientist).

     The Mystic answer given in the Occult Science texts; addresses these shortcomings. To the Pyramid Priests, who had been given the knowledge from the motherland Atlantis; the answer was based upon the metaphysical properties of life. They said that the snow crystallized along the lines of energy we can't see.

     Thoth in the Emerald Tablets explains that this infinitely unique pattern of geometry that formed the snowflakes, at another level also generated the infinitely unique patterns that weave our DNA (never two alike) - for the same reasons.

     The quantum flux in the vacuum of space/time is an ever changing matrix – due to the constantly changing positions of things in space/time. Unlike we are conditioned to believe – every cosmic body is affecting and communicating with each other at a frequency beyond our ability to perceive it (which is where concepts for astrology come from). This communication and energy and gravitational exchange, imprints the fabric we are embedded in.

     The snowflake; as does everything in manifest reality – forms from the more subtle energy we are currently not privy to. This energy that is ever changing and evolving indeed never makes two of anything alike. The design of life is exposed by the fact that not two strands of DNA, nor snowflakes, or grains of sand, or plants, trees, or fingerprints, creatures, or people, mountains, planets, stars, galaxies, (and I would assume universes), or pretty much anything you can think of are made identical.

     In fact, even the atoms and strings everything are constructed from; have unique vibrations and spin dynamics and vectors. If you look close enough at anything – you would be hard pressed to find an exception to this rule. The subtle instructs the gross – the ancients were well aware of the invisible minutia of life. A snowflake tells us much – which is why outdated materialist 1970's science doesn't have a decent answer!

      Q: Can anything exceed the speed of light? Is there really a "speed of light rule?"

A: This goes over like a lead balloon because it proves how much we have yet to learn! The speed of light is an approximate 186,000 miles per second, and they tell us that unequivocally nothing can exceed the speed of light – Einstein himself said so.

     The problem is that future cutting edge science is exposing this among other things as a blatant falsehood. The sub-atomic structure moves and communicates instantly beyond light-speed. Also; if a black hole can suck in light faster than it can escape – we might safely presume that the gravity of the black hole exceeds the speed of light.

     We might then also consider that the fabric of space/time is shown by this to be able to exceed the speed of light; by pulling the light with itself into the black hole.

     Consciousness moves faster than light too; a thought is instant – but that is harder to prove in short form. But it is considered more than possible for too many reasons to go into here. It would suffice to say; many things move faster than light – gravity, the fabric of space/time, the sub-atomic bits, and the consciousness with which we experience these things are but a few!

Q: Is matter real, or is matter an illusion as some claim?

A: The scientific answer is that the only reality is matter......... To the philosopher; matter is nonexistent and a delusion of experience........... To a Spiritualist however; everything is spirit – including the matter! The spiritualist has the better answer!

     Nothing in the universe or our reality is "un-real." If matter is a crystallization of space/time, or a congealing of light, a vibration - the question becomes mute. What we are really asking is; "If I can't see it or touch it – does it really exist?"

     All matter is in effect; crystallized spirit, conscious light – all we are differentiating is whether it has yet manifest or not. Consider spirit like water, which is a fitting analogy. As steam; water is a mere vapour or fog and barely perceptible. As a state of liquid; water becomes not entirely solid but fluid, such as a river, lake, or ocean, you can't hold it in your hand – but it is definitely "there." As ice; water is very solid – solid enough to render the hull of a steel ship frail. The state of matter changes from invisible, to fluid, to solid, much like water; but to say it did not exist prior to becoming ice - would be incorrect.

Q: What was the link between the pyramids of Egypt, and other pyramids found worldwide, such as those found in Mexico, South America, India, and China and elsewhere?

A: The link is a previous society which they are all off-shoots of – namely Atlantis! The same Priest Kings of Atlantis fled the sinking continent at roughly the same time, and educated the savages in these remote areas in order to build anew.

     This is why these seemingly separate groups had the same mastery of stonemasonry, knowledge of geometry, cosmological concepts, and the same math, alchemical and spiritual knowledge. It also explains how simple tribal people were propelled into a cultured society, over an inexplicably short period of time! Not to mention the advent of slavery and organized religion!

     It is claimed these remote outposts of Atlantis were beginning to form just prior to the motherland sinking. In the esoteric texts it is claimed that India was the first remote outpost of Atlantis; and that the Vedic Texts are fashioned after the information from Atlantis – and thus fairly accurate.

     In almost every mythos; Gods fell to the earth in various guises, and gave the indigenous population this advanced knowledge. What if they had it right – given a slight perspective deficit? It fits to explain what society at large hasn't, and connects the dots regarding our past – historically and spiritually.

     I'd bet they had it more right that we give them credit for, given that previously mentioned perspective deficit. I mean in a sense, what we are talking about; is Thoth the Atlantean Priest King - trying to bring Fred Flintstone up to speed!

Q: What is the basic difference between Orthodox Christianity and Esoteric Christianity?

A: There are countless differences; but the crux of it is this. The orthodox Christian believes that at every birth a new soul is created. In the esoteric versions; each soul is an integral part of God seeking to gain experience – through repeated existences which gradually improve the material bodies. Esoteric Christianity incorporates the Eastern philosophies.

     If we only live once; what of the inequities of life? This is never properly addressed by the standard fare. We don't all get the same shot at life, and most of us know it all too well – if we only have one life – how fair is that? God is fairer than that – and more capable.

     But instead if all life is indeed the work of the Greater Spirit or Soul we call God – all the experiential options are better explored this way. If we re-create ourselves repeatedly in multiple formats to better gain experience; everyone and everything being the same would negate the process. We all get to be a hero, we all get to be an ass; we all get to win, and we all get to lose – by design.

     If I believe in a Creator God; wouldn't I like to think these inequities we all deal with were not a design, and consider that they might be required and serve a purpose? The evolutionary process validates that all life is a single repeating conscious force by the act of evolving! It isn't very hard to sort this all out!

Q: Why was man told to "Know Thyself?"

A: Because "knowing thyself" will lead us to discovery of the special element of life within us. When we discover the invisible forces and bodies which exist in and around us with science or spirituality, we discover spirit. Thus the Temple really is "in" Man.

     When we discover our inner spirit component – we find our Source. When we find God in us – we find God everywhere. Seeking knowledge beyond the fetters of the dogmas of organized religion, and seeking enlightened science is the key.

Q: Is capital punishment justifiable?

A: Does the act of capital punishment reflect our prayers? How dare we say; forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us – and then justify capital punishment? Capital punishment is nothing more than "revenge" metered out by man.

     Let us use an example of a sick or ill family member to illustrate this point. We don't abandon or kill a sick family member – we do everything we can to make them better. Think of your own child as a murderer or hurtful person, as distasteful as it might be to do so (although every murderer is someone's child) – and decide what you would do. You wouldn't kill them!  Even if they screwed up badly; we just take greater measures. If we took the same view towards a sick criminal, we would still institutionalize them accordingly to assist them to get better – like with a sick family member.

     This doesn't mean we allow sick people to hurt others. It just means we protect them the best way we can instead of the easiest way. Some will realize their failures later in life, and provide the greatest service to humanity. Those that don't change; must be encouraged to benefit as much as possible from the institutional help they receive – and still contribute what they can to society in lesser form.

Q: Why was it necessary for an all powerful and all knowing God to put us through all this pain and suffering – if we are a product of the same kind and loving God?

A: In the beginning of Creation, God differentiated within Himself a multitude of spiritual intelligences, much as sparks emanate from a fire. These sparks or spiritual intelligences were potential fires – as of God. Wee stars of the Great Star; in potentiality - so to speak.

     The activity and conscious exercise of life is this divine spark of conscious awareness being encased inside an individual entity – and thus separated by this individuation. The fanning of the ember to flame is the point. The encased spirit can no longer then connect to that from which it came – which is intended to facilitate discovery of the individuation through ego.

     The pains of life are our educational mistakes which cause the corrections required to facilitate this self-discovery. This is how the individual spark in man is returned full force and fanned into a flame. This is how the "Dark Light" is transmuted into the "Light of All Light" as spoken of by Thoth in the Emerald Tablets. We learn by this process to create; and thus become like Creator.

Q: Are Spirits male and female?

A: No; spirit has no sex, nor need of it. Spirit is both sexes of course – until physically manifest and contained. Then in order to propagate more physical entities for spirit to have experiences in – we have developed the two sexes. But spirit itself; is not one sex or another.

We have both types of vehicles – but the same occupant – to put it another way.

Q: Where does our conscience come from, our inner voice, and our sense of right and wrong?

A: Our conscience, as is our sub consciousness, or higher self, - our spiritual subconscious memory. It is the memory of past sufferings we caused ourselves in previous incarnations. The subconscious and the collective memory of nature, work to improve the vehicle and the experience by these means.

     Nature, evolution, instincts, and the invisible instructions or intelligence of life is evidence that all life shares a root-cause beyond the physical dimensions. That shared field is the builder of our conscience and consciousness.

     Our sense of right and wrong is something we have from birth and we are not taught it. The basic gist of a persons morality is a given. You'll notice adults are just older versions of the same kid they were – morally speaking. Conscience is an inherent property of a human being if it is not conditioned out of them, which more than implies it is the result of a higher field or boundary state of organization.

     This sense of right and wrong is nature's way of self preservation by means of a conscious immune system. It might be called species specific déjà-vu. We are to develop and evolve our conscience – which is spiritual awareness by alternate terms. And yes; that still leaves those who lack.

Q: To what might we attribute genius and prodigy?

A: You can not quantify genius within strictly physical parameters. If consciousness is entirely physical – ask yourself why there is little if any difference physically between the brain of Einstein and the brain of the "village idiot?"  We know genius is not determined physically, simply because there are no visible physical differences between a genius and an ordinary man.

     Genius is also not genetic; or only certain families would produce them. The truth is often the opposite. Often the most remarkable prodigies are born to relatively un-remarkable parents. Likewise; genius parents are just as likely to produce an underachieving child. Most genius musicians and artists don't spawn prodigies without exception, which would then be the case.

     While it might be argued that the odd genius or prodigy does fall from gifted loins – they are more of an exception than the rule. More often than not the assertion is false; especially considering the parental tutelage and provided opportunities. Given such a huge environmental advantage; very few such generational prodigies result.

     However; if we consider the spiritual view which entails causation and rebirth to solve this question – the answer is clearly obvious. This theory asserts that life is a school of experience; and that at each new birth we have our previous accumulated experiences to draw from. We are not consciously aware of this; it is subconscious, which is another way to say "the collective unconscious," as Carl Jung called it. A Guru will call it your Higher Self.

     Our subconscious is the memory bank of all the things we have been (among other things!) – Thus "genius" is the same spirit with more spiritual capital. Gifted people have more metaphysical properties to thank for their gifts – than physical ones. Some of the greatest minds are physically challenged and handicapped, how else would one account for such a gross deficit between causation and result?

Q: If the limb of a man is amputated, or the branch of a tree cut off, or a piece of a mountain removed – will the invisible essence remain?

A: This is evidenced in Kirlian photography. (Kirlian photography is the practice of bombarding objects with energy and then photographing them to see the aura.) In Kirlian photography the amputated limb of a man, or the finger cut from a leaf – is shown as "whole" in the aura. Just think about that.

     There are also too many cases to dismiss where an amputee experiences what are called "ghost pains" in the removed limb. This phantom pain subsides as the removed limb loses its vital force and breaks down and decays.

     These effects are more proof that what we really are is a permanent metaphysical light body, more than we are the physically expressed (subject to damage) manifestation of that light body.

Q: Why are the sciences important if the true nature of reality is spirit?

A: Because alternately expressed; although consciousness is the ground of all being - we don't all see things the same. There are two basic mindsets for this dualistic question. The older method that of a spiritual mindset, is more than adequate – in fact it has served us for countless thousands of years. You can "just feel this."

     The second mindset is that of the more modern analytical and scientific proponent for defining reality, which revolves around modernity and materialistic process. To the modern analytical and more scientifically inclined person; there must therefore be facts and figures and material effects to weigh and measure - to define God with!

     Some left-brained number crunching component inside us; has to be able to reason this out – and not just feel it. Like the disciple who had to touch Christ's wounds to accept what he saw as real. For some of us feeling it isn't enough, out of fear that the feelings are illusory. To an analytical mind this has to make some sense – and so it should!

     My point is this; many of us require "knowledge" as a true path to finding spirituality - thus the need for sciences. Intellect and emotion are just different routes on the same path to explain our reality. You can get there through knowledge is my point.

     But spirituality generated by personal scientific endeavour has the exact same problem as spirituality born of feelings; it can't be explained. Both are acts of experience and realization found in the application of your consciousness in the pursuit of a credible explanation.

     Science which entertains consideration of the invisible; such as is employed by theoretical quantum physicists, cosmologists, and cutting edge biologists, are all studying the same thing – experience, which is consciousness, which is in turn a metaphysical property that can not be excluded from the equation. They will eventually get it (sorry for getting longwinded)!

Q: Why would the tribal Shaman often use hallucinogens to induce and facilitate their spiritual experiences? Are they not merely hallucinating?

A: It is a way to induce a deliberate mini-near-death-experience. Every form of spiritual ecstasy is/was/and has been achieved by similar, albeit outwardly appearing different methods. What you have to understand is that most spiritual and clairvoyant experiences are just that – miniature versions of a near death experience. I know it sounds nuts – but just hear me out!

     The Shaman used a hallucinogen to remove himself from the physical plane – to externalize his consciousness from its physical encasement. A Monk might fast and use breathing exercises to achieve this. Meditating for long periods of time, intense prayer, and basically concentrating on "nothing" or something other than yourself works too.

     Isolation, sensory deprivation, vision quests, self flagellation, hanging from hooks or laying on spike beds, and all of the above are the same practice when you get down to the brass tacks of it – which is separating your consciousness from your physical vehicle for a short while.

     So while I am in no way advocating doing drugs to find what we call God; I thought the question deserved a decent answer. The Shaman was in a way cheating by using drugs – but it still took him to the Spirit Realm to talk to the ancestors if his heart was pure. The more things change – the more the prerequisites stay the same.

Q: What benefit has clairvoyance, the process of higher meditation, and other seemingly esoteric practices in "this life," for our "afterlife?"

A: First off; no fear of death would exist in our hearts. If we really understood that the true nature of reality was an exercise for spirit to develop in; and that all life is a single eternal energy enjoying multiple cycles – the fear would evaporate. We hoard, kill, steal, lie, cheat, hurt nature, and do most negative things out of fear. No fear of death as it should be – would make for a much nicer experience – don't you think?

     There is also our transition into the astral planes to consider once again. If we have no previous knowledge about the true nature of reality; we can consciously generate nasty thought-forms and self-induced monsters of our own creation when we pass over. If we know how this works just a little – we can vanquish the demons knowing full well that we have that power since we in essence "created them!"

     Some occult spiritualists call our misconceptions, and our poor choices - the only Hell. This is also why in Bibles; if we call out to God; Hell goes away. So as well as aiding us to better enjoy and all develop together in our physical experience, clairvoyant and spiritual development also eliminates needless fear, and makes the transition easier.

Q: Do we have to live a pure life as prescribed by the church to experience spirituality and develop extra abilities?

A: Yes and no. Your body is a temple to educate your spiritual component. If we consume drugs or alcohol to excess without cause, gorge on decadent foods to excess, and indulge in every passion and whim (sexual and otherwise); and then expect to have spiritual powers - we shouldn't be too surprised with failure - or mortality!

     This does not however mean that we can't have sex, eat meats, and enjoy goodies, a drink or a self medicating moment, or any form of spiritual experience if it feels right to us. A little harm to the body might indeed be good for the soul on occasion. The intention as always is the point. With conscious purity – there can be no impure acts.

     Moderation, good intentions, and a pure heart are the real requirements – that and the child-like quality to explore from a place of innocence without judgment and preconceived notions. You are still a physical being! Just don't let your body rule your mind is what that means.

     The first step to true spirituality and additional abilities (which are merely acts of learning about your self) is to generate a well educated yet flexible spiritual disposition. When this well intentioned and "tuned in" state is achieved either within or outside of the parameters given by any church – enlightenment, clarity, clairvoyance, spiritual epiphany, transcendence, and a glimpse of the Absolute have been achieved.

     At this point no further abuses will be perpetrated upon "anything" or "anyone" and the true reverence for life will be automatic. Experience all things as was intended – without resorting to debauchery. And do it in an individual way that expresses who you are and feels right for you – you determine your own parameters! That is really good advice, and not just an answer.

Q: Are children "gifted" in these ways and clairvoyant from birth until they reach a certain age?

A: Yes, most children are clairvoyant for at least the first year of life. How much longer depends on conditioning in the environment and the individual. Children and pets see many things, metaphysical things, which we as adults miss.

     The problem is that most children tell everything they see to their parents and older siblings; at which point then the faculty of clairvoyance becomes lost and affected by the attitude of the care givers for the child (whoever that may be). If the child is repeatedly ridiculed (openly or otherwise) they deeply sense that – especially subconsciously where it really matters.

     The child then starts to automatically shut out the ability which generates the ridicule – or at least learn to keep it to themselves. It is the same reason children remember dreams better – they don't rule them out as nonsense. Often the youngest children let slip a past memory, or expose a clairvoyant ability early in life. It is too bad that we condition it out of the equation for them from our limited perspective – with our bogus interpretation of reality from a strictly materialistic world-view.

     Lets fix that – and start asking the kids questions instead, so they might better educate us who have forgotten the essence required to sail the metaphysical seas!

Q: If we are the apex of life on the planet; why do animals and the lesser creatures seem to have more reliable instincts than human beings?

A: In a nutshell; ego. An animal has a "group spirit" while a human being has its own individual spirit. The separate animal spirits are not ego-conscious, or aware like we are; so they act without question according to the instructions of the group spirit. We currently call that instinct.

     Human spirits descend directly into the physical world as individuals; they have free will and guide themselves. Our human ego and individuality obscure our shared source. When the human being deliberately chooses to forgo the ego; the power we call instinct starts functioning again.

     In the future; mans abilities to utilize instinct will increase exponentially above that of the lesser creatures – once he learns to more selectively apply his ego.

Q: What is a "group spirit" and how does it work?

A: We could use the micro organisms inside each of us at another scale to illustrate this principle. While we are individual and autonomous as a single conscious entity at our scale – so are all the separate components inside our bodies such as atoms, cells, and organs.

     Consider that every individual cell in your body is going about its own business; with its own senses and consciousness at a lesser scale (which it does) – with absolutely no idea who you are.........the host!

     A group spirit works the same. To the lesser conscious cells in your body – you are the "group spirit" which is representative of their cosmos. An animal exists for the group spirit as a conscious cell, for the totality of the metaphysical group spirit. Spirit is more than a religious concept – it is how life works.

     The natives knew this and grouped spirit into families; such as the Spirit of Bear, the Spirit of Eagle, the Spirit of Man, and so on and so forth. They called the upper Spirit the Great Spirit Manitou; which encompassed them all. To you and me; God is our group spirit. I hope you get that! It might be considered the combined repository of intelligence for each grouping of souls.

Q: Do animals have a spirit and thus enjoy an afterlife?

A: The best way to answer that is to correct the premise of the question. Everything in manifest reality is made of spirit. Spirit has no beginning or end – it just is. Clairvoyants claim that even in the case of an insect squashed underfoot; it is said that the insect's "light-body" continues on for several feet before fading and returning to the group spirit.

     The belief is that every creature according to its level of conscious development spiritually lives on commensurate with its level of consciousness. We; being the conscious apex on this planet - are said to maintain our individuality much longer before melding into the universal soul. This needn't be viewed as a negative thing however (quite the opposite), since it is merely a return from whence we came. Even a bug figures into this.

Q: Do the orbits of cosmic bodies make any sound as they move through space?

A: We have the commonly held misconception that space is a void, a vacuum, and nothingness. In fact if you will recall in the popular old movie "Aliens" the accepted idea was reinforced with the notion that in space – "no one could hear you scream." Now we know through science; that the ancients were right once again! Einstein called it "the fabric of space/time" for a reason – it is anything but – nothing! It is "more" than the stuff we can see.

     Every cosmic body disturbing the fabric of space/time; creates ripples and waves in space/time as it moves through it. Its presence alone makes a "dimple" in space/time according to Einstein – why would its orbits and motions not disturb the same fabric it creates a dimple in as it moves through it? The dimples make waves, due to motion.

     The entire universe and its activity therefore becomes akin to a symphony of musical instruments playing a concert. Esoterically this is the "Word" of God and of Creation – and if the symphony were to strike discord and allow this harmony to fail for a mere moment.........the universe would fail. The Sacred Geometry of the Cosmos would lose its order.  It is the universal song that manifests reality - geometrically.

     Many ancient terms explain this as; the harmony of the spheres, the celestial symphony, the music of the orbs, the Angels singing praise to God, the Sacred Tones, and perhaps even Ezekiel's thundering and growling "wheels within wheels," and also as the Circles of Existence. It may also be the partial meaning behind the symbol of the Sacred Flower of Life; as the waves emanating from a sphere.

Q: What is an Aura? Why can some see them, and others not?

A: It is our self contained metaphysical essence around us. I like to pose the question; "Do we emit an aura – or does the aura emit us?"

     In another sense it is our own individual metaphysical atmosphere, and the personal filter we view the outer world through. It is also our container; our event horizon.

     The actual way to see an aura (for many of us), is to look just past the person to one side and view them through your peripheral vision. While some see lights (the more gifted among us), most of us can still see this effect as waves emanating from the persons body – like heat waves off the pavement on a hot day. Using this method even the marginally gifted can see a shimmering essence like heat-waves emanating, just above the skin.

     With practice and a new way to look; many start to see the different colors of the prism – and learn to read it. Subconsciously we already see much of this – consciously however due to ego and id – we have to work at it a bit.

     Metaphorically, albeit symbolically accurate; your personal aura is your Ethereal Womb. We might say that we left our mothers womb, for our ethereal womb; and that when we leave our physical body behind (the container) – we enter the Cosmic or Astral Womb.

Q: What does it mean in the Bible when it tells us that Eve was taken from Adam's rib, was Eve made from Adam's rib?

A: The "rib story" is most likely a translation error of immense proportions.

     At one time in our early evolution, the creature essence which begat us, was A-sexual and a hermaphrodite. Many creatures start out that way – self reproducing.

     The "rib story" properly translated actually says that Eve was taken "from one side of Adam" or his sexuality – and made separate. This story is about our earliest evolutionary development – which is why it is located in Genesis in the beginning of the Bible.

     It was the story of mankind in his earliest development, becoming two sexes. Thus Adam was told to "cleave unto his wife" (given the reproductive urge and instinct) and "know his wife." Before that; reproduction only entailed knowing yourself. (On a more humorous note; "wanking" might be a throwback from that!)

Q: Is there such a thing as "time" on the other side?

A: Not as we know it. Time is a very limiting factor of 3rd dimensional existence. You might envision the afterlife as one long bright day; and an eternal moment of here and now – and as merely a state of Is-ness.

     Time is measured and created by the motions and orbits of physical cosmic bodies, such as the earth's rotation on its axis as the measurement of a day. The full cycle of the moon represents a month approximately; the earths orbit around the sun is a year, and our sun's orbit around galactic center, as a galactic measurement of time.

     Externally there is time – internally there is no time. What is "outside of you" makes time – what is "inside you" (which is singularity) doesn't require time as we understand it. External time is merely an expression of this as a series of connected moments. The arrow of time as it is called.

     Time therefore is a physical consideration. We live and move about in three dimensions of spatial orientation currently – but only the one dimension of time, the arrow if you will. On the other side is the opposite state. There is only one all inclusive dimension of space – but there are many dimensions of time. You are always at "dimension one" and time becomes more like a location.

Q: Does a moral and just man with no spiritual beliefs do alright in the hereafter?

A: While no harm comes to them; they posses no abilities that they did not cultivate in their life experience. The purpose of life is to uncover what is behind what we see. If a person no matter how good; neglects to learn of and develop his spirit component – they greatly limit their potential in the afterlife. Thus all the warnings in various religious and spiritual texts tell us not to abandon the search for our Source.

     A decent, good, and moral person will however; have little in the way of Karmic debt to work through. This will enable them to better and more rapidly reincarnate into the appropriate life cycle where they will learn what they missed out on.

     A good and moral man is better off than an immorally bankrupt man as far as his Karmic debts run – but they are not better off than a less than perfect man who had some sort of spiritual reckoning in their life (which is where some mistaken spiritual notions about undifferentiated forgiveness come from).

     Again; I am not saying that an awful person with spiritual beliefs is A-O-K. Some of our limitations in the ethereal realms will be dictated by both aspects of our life cycle – deeds and thoughts.

     The long and the short of it is that every last one of us figures this out at some point; it is just a longer bumpier road for some – on both sides.

Q: Why is there a constant reference to the number twelve in the Bible, as well as many Mystic, Occult, and Esoteric beliefs? Why twelve?

A: We are all familiar with the twelve tribes of Israel, twelve gates, twelve Angels around the throne, the twelve disciples, the twelve signs of the zodiac, and so on and so forth. The correct answer is given in mysticism.

     These are the twelve basic patterns of the human personality, reflected in the twelve signs of the zodiac. The twelve disciples for example can be viewed as the same patterns as the twelve signs of astrology. The one who had faith, the one who lied, the one who finked, the one who disbelieved, the one who was greedy, and so on – as the character traits of man personified.

     If we examine the details deliberately given about each disciples personality traits – and compare it with the astrological counterparts.........it merely confirms that all our current beliefs are the re-worked versions of the older ones. Which poses little problem; if you are able to work through the totality of the information. If you are stuck with only one version however; the dots don't get connected.

Q: Was Jesus just a man as some suggest?

A: Yes; Jesus was just a man – but not just any man. Jesus was a human man of great purity who accepted the spirit of God as Christ spirit. Thus we have the entity called Jesus Christ. "Jesus-Christ" was in effect – two entities! One was the mortal physical Jesus, and one was the eternal spirit called Christ. Just like us He had two parts, the physical and the spiritual. A special human being – and the Universal Soul.

     Scholars and religionists argue this point vehemently – but I can unequivocally put this to rest for the spiritually bold.

     If you go back and re-read the Bible armed with this knowledge – the proof of this hidden truth becomes apparent.

     In the passages where He is referred to as "Jesus" – you'll find it corresponds with Jesus as a man. In other passages He is referred to as "Christ" which denotes the metaphysical conscious spirit. In still other quotes both names are used "Jesus Christ" which then denotes both aspects of the saviour – Jesus and Christ as one.

     When you re-read the passages with the true meanings for them – it starts to make sense where they call Him by which name. Sometimes it is Christ who is being tested, sometimes Jesus, and sometimes both. Whether lessons for the body, or lessons for the soul. Sometimes the name Lord is also used. This denotation of Jesus Christ the Lord – simply incorporates the greater trinity above the duality. The mind body and soul for example, or the waking consciousness, the collective subconscious, and the super-consciousness, or the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost as another.

     (On a side note: Being a disbeliever initially in the Christ story; and then learning the mystical and more ancient esoteric story and explanation – totally changed how I feel about the whole thing. If you have serious reservations because the story you are accustomed to was written for "children" – you owe yourself a look at the adult version. It fills in virtually all the blanks; and explains the fantastic parts with sensible possibilities. While I still believe that "Jesus" is only one of the ways – I now get that His teachings are God's – and that they are found in many places and ways. I now totally love, respect, and understand, what he did...........spiritually speaking!)

Q: What is the true symbolic meaning of Satan or the Devil?

A: Spirit is consciousness; so the meaning revolves around poor choices and negative emotions. Satan or the Devil – are our conscious shortcomings. Mystics describe the Devil as our own self-centeredness, self-gratification, self-indulgence, self-importance, self-righteousness, self-glorification, self-delusion, self-condemnation, the self, the ego, the false God, and the true Beast in man.

     Good spirit or consciousness is that of our Creator. Bad spirit or consciousness; is that which we call Satan.

Q: What was meant by the "New Jerusalem" in the Bible?

A: Much fighting has gone on over this lost point. Remember our two aspects? The New Jerusalem is about our conscious mind being awakened to the true nature of reality. This isn't about land or a building. God isn't physically a city or a country.

     This means "the Christ Consciousness" which is long overdue. God is not a fictional physical construct – God is a lost continent in the mind of man. Or in this case – a city!

Q: Why does the Bible say the number of the Beast is 666? What is "the Beast" and what is the significance of this number?

A: The number for divinity is seven. Seven Angels, seven spiritual lamps, seven spiritual centers or chakras, seven seals, seven vials, and so on – the number of divinity and spiritual awareness is seven.

     Man at his current level of awareness is presently only at six. The mark of the beast is six, six, six – because that is mans state of consciousness at this time. The reason for the three sixes; is that this is representative of the trinity in man – mind, body, and soul (or the father, son, and holy ghost, conscious, subconscious, and super conscious, brain, physicality, and spirit, etcetera). We are at the level of six in our awareness – in all three of our aspects.

     Therefore the mark of the beast, and the numbers six, six, six, represent our un-evolved behaviour. The seventh lamp or seventh spiritual center has not yet been lit in mans consciousness. No critters, and no devil, are to be inferred from this – contrary to popular belief. It's about our conscious choices and feelings and decisions being as yet undeveloped and evolving.

     Knowing this alone renders that which was incomprehensible into that which speaks volumes of truth – at least if you can admit we fall short where it matters most.....morally.

Q: What is meant by the "Mark of the Lamb?

A: The mark of the lamb is the opposite, that of the evolved higher consciousness and spiritual behaviour in mankind as a whole. The lamb is love, pure spirit or good decisions and full awareness, while the beast is un-pure spirit and poor decisions, as a result of being unaware (if the shoe fits......). If you were to now re-read your bible and insert these definitions; they would make the sense they were intended to. These are the proverbial keys to the kingdom.

Q: What is meant by Armageddon – is it the end of the world?

A: The world ends at different times for each one of us individually when we cease to exist physically anymore. It does not represent the end of our physical world – but the end of our search for the truth. The true definition of Armageddon in mysticism is the spiritual battle within you – within us.

     While the world will eventually come to pass as told in scriptures - it represents humanity as a whole "becoming." Meanwhile; each one of us faces our own Armageddon inside – no matter what the world is doing.

Q: Is pantheism pagan and evil as the church suggests? Are not pagan beliefs and sacrifices contrary to the teachings of the Bible?

A: Let's start at the beginning – this is a big question. First off; we must reconsider what we have had so poorly interpreted by others for us – and re-examine it for ourselves. The reason for this; is that what we are "told" the bible says – is not what it really says.

     The Buddha and Christ were infected by the same spirit – and what they said is not at all different or contrary from each other. This is gonna hurt and offend a few because it shakes some poorly laid foundations for what we believe; but here it is.

     Ask your minister why he believes that pantheistic beliefs employed by other belief systems; are false and incorrect. After he gets done attempting to justify this poorly laid foundation for his beliefs – ask him the following questions – and just see if they are ready for the truth. Or if it scares them so much they shut down intellectually.

     Did not the "Creator God" (the head honcho) tell us all that "He" was the First and Last, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and End, and that He was "In" and "Of" all things? That there was nothing or nowhere that he didn't exist. And did he not tell us that it is solely through Him that we move and have our being?

     God is the totality of the environment, and everything in it! It doesn't get any more pantheistic than that (or clearer)! Don't these people read their own stuff? This totally exposes the need for us to re-examine what we are told for ourselves – because it doesn't say pantheism is bad at all – it defines and describes the operating system for life.

     This leaves the notion of "sacrifice" to contend with in paganism. Once again I wish to point out some things the bible itself explains – if we will listen ourselves and not accept what some 15watt self professed expert tells us something means.

     God; sacrificed His Son for us. Jesus sacrificed himself for us so that we might learn that the true nature of reality is spirit – and that we have nothing to fear. Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son to prove his faith to God. We could also consider all the sacrificial lambs and fatted calves they sacrificed to God in the First Testament.

     Then when we go to church we are told to eat the flesh of Christ symbolically as communion (a wafer), and to consume His blood symbolically as wine or water when we attend church. If that wasn't enough; we are told that the entire gambit of life is about our sacrificing for others, because they are our "brothers and sisters" (us in effect) but we don't know it yet. (Did I mention "tithing" as a sacrifice of our hard earned work efforts?)

     So really if we look for ourselves at what is written for us in bibles (pick one!); we can see there is no difference between paganism, eastern philosophy, and western beliefs – other than how we chose to interpret them. The hidden message in bibles is exposed as all our individual versions of the same thing. Thus I agree; God really can preserve His word for us – but not only in one place.

     All our belief systems are intrinsically linked; there are no "selective paths," and pantheistic beliefs are rife in eastern and western spiritual texts. It's all the same stuff folks – don't let anyone convince you not to look at "anything" and discern it for yourself. God is in you too; and if you ask your inner child – your operating system will guide you through what applies to you and what does not. One definition can only work for some people, trust yourself to sort out what works for you as was intended.

     The last argument against pantheism by the western beliefs is that it places all life at the same value-scale – because as pantheism expresses......everything is God. So they will try and tell you that because of this view – we would wrongly place man squarely equal to all other life – even a cockroach or a stone. I can cure this misrepresentation of the truth also in short order.

     This is why they make such a big deal about "blood" and sacrifice of it in the first place. Because corpuscular life (life with blood) - does have a higher value. The greater conscious awareness has been an evolution of the blood – of the very DNA. A pantheist does not advocate that since everything is God (or made of that stuff) – that a rock and a human being are equals.

     Spirituality; true spirituality – is an experience which is and has always been playing out around us as we experience and evolve. The higher the ability to experience, and feel, and be aware – the greater the reflection of what we call God or the Absolute is expressed through us. In some ways at least; pantheism has it right when they tell us that everything is really "one life." And it really doesn't contradict a damn thing in the bible – if you'll pardon the expression! (I did say it was a big question – didn't I?)

Q: How long have we been on the earth in our present form?

A: Some would have us believe that the whole shebang including ourselves is but a scant five or six thousand years old! Science disagrees; with good cause. And as a matter of fact the standard fare as far as spirituality is concerned - stands in opposition of this notion also. However we are repeatedly told that the earth is only five or six thousand years old by many of the narrow minded devout.

     The first question an inquisitive child asks in Sunday school often when told this is: "What about the dinosaur bones?" (I love kids!) To which currently some confused people are answering the children by telling them that the "Devil or Satan" planted them there to confuse us and make us doubt scripture! I ain't making this up, honest!

     That a supposedly sentient human adult would spew such nonsense to a growing inquisitive child – speaks volumes about the predicament we are in. I've had adults that knocked on my door spew similar malarkey when you ask them this exact question. Alright; so I'm still a bit of a child at heart sometimes. Try it you'll like it – despite all the nay-say. Kids do ask some F'n good questions though - don't they?

     Alright; let's get a firm grip on reality here. Everything in our historical and archaeological efforts says otherwise. The science to date fossils says otherwise. The strata they are found in; similarly indicates otherwise. Rest assured – everything is "at least" as old as we suspect it is – conservatively.

     As for the hard core who won't let go of this misconception; and the religionists who claim that they don't care what science or anybody else tells them, because all they need is their Bible to sort this out – I have some bad news for you. The Bible disagrees with you!

     Read your own bible for the truth then – it is in there. Just go to the part where Noah lands the Ark after the flood, and thumb through what I like to call the "begat section." After the floods subside, when the Ark comes to rest – Noah and his family (and the animals two by two), repopulate the earth do they not? Then starts the whole "so and so begat so and so" and lived for hundreds of years - as they keep track of the bloodlines as they repopulate the earth. This goes on for pages and pages – just in this section alone.

     We are told that Noah lived to some 900+ years. And you'll note that many of the people in the "begat section" lived for hundreds of years as well. Now do some math for the spiritually confused among us.

     There is at least ten if not twenty thousand years right there in the begat section! Not to mention all the time prior to the flood since the literal dawn of creation (there has to be a couple of years there!)! Then you have to also add in the time after the "begat section" was referring to, and/or written in, and include the present day.

     Sorry for bursting the spiritually confined bubble – but the Bible itself unequivocally gives us a way, way, way, longer timeframe than a scant five of six thousand years by its own admission in black and white! (Even the most hardcore devout believers need to give their head a shake. But it isn't their fault – it is what we have been conditioned to blindly accept.)

     I'll explain now what they mean; for your sake and theirs! The epoch we are currently in – is about that old! What we currently accept as our history (albeit the short version) from our early Babylonian and Egyptian history until now – is about five or six thousand years. Our epoch is that age, not our existence on the earth, or that of our prior evolutions. The ancients called these "the Ages." This takes me to the painful question about "evolution."

Q: Was Darwin right, and the Bible wrong? Is Creation contrary to Evolution as is often argued?

A: Only if you don't "get it" and how this works. Evolution actually proves the concept of a Creator through downwards causation, and the inherent intelligence behind the process of evolution.

     However correct as Darwin was generally speaking in setting the church back on its heels regarding this process – he missed something huge. The question of why was missed when the process of natural selection came into question. It is happening, but for more intelligible reasons.

     Darwin reasoned that the process was guided by nothing more than the conditions in the environment and what he called random selection. He believed that random mutations drove the process – and not a yet to be discovered intelligence in the very atoms, DNA, and cells, and organs, and the entire organisms.

     We now know this is not true. The fact is that if all we experienced and learned in our individual life expired with us when we died – nothing would evolve. This falsehood is generated by the false perception that all of our cognitive functions rely on a physical brain, and that all the information in the biology is self contained in the DNA. This false belief that when the brain dies; so do you and all your represented experiences as your consciousness – doesn't hold water (metaphysical waters or otherwise).

     The first fish that desired to get out of the water to obtain food, or escape a predator - didn't pull it off. It was the subsequent generations that grew stubs from fins and crept onto the land to facilitate evolution. The thought was maintained beyond the one fish is my point. Darwin discovered how amphibians could evolve from fish – but was incorrect about why. The desire to creep onto land – was the metaphysical driver.

     It is this Intelligent Design which "stick in the mud science" abhors and fights tooth and nail against – because it includes a spiritual component through design. Some biologists call this a Morphogenetic Field as evidenced from the external instructions which seem not bound or fixed to the individuation.

     Call it the Mystery of Nature like the scientists if you must.  Just because evolution actually proves the existence of spirit (alternately defined as continued consciousness in finer dimensions, or better yet "Intelligible Light") as an operating system for "said evolution," friction results.

     Don't believe the strictly left brained people that Intelligent Design is a propaganda ploy by religion. Intelligent Design if you will consider it – is an ever present problem for science in virtually all departments, from the subatomic to the cosmic. I sleep alright knowing the truth and feeling it for myself. Yes there was an act of Creation by a Creator – which in no way negates the possibility of evolution defined as compound experiences.

Q: What does it really mean to call someone a false prophet?

A: It is simply someone who has fooled themselves, or allowed themselves to be fooled – and is trying to sell that to you! A False Prophet needn't be a Devil figure, just a poor conception passed on. No dude with horns – merely a false perception – we all have some. Today we would call them a phoney, or self delusional. It is another way to say – "snake oil salesman."

     In all fairness; some dogmatic religionists have called me that - but there is an easy way to sort it out. I come without the usual request for money, I come with no annoying phone calls to bother you, there are no meetings to attend, and I promise not to knock on your door unless I know you! And I always tell people that if you follow me – you are doing it wrong. Is that clear enough? That's just an alibi – I ain't special, and I am not trying to sell you anything, is my point. False Prophets are always out to gain something. I just hold up a mirror.

Q: Is interracial marriage O.K?

A: Spirit has no color differentiation as it relates to our physical bodies. Eventually; perhaps we will blend them all into a new color – like a beautiful purple skin tone. This prejudice is much like two astronauts from the same country, wearing two different color space-suits on the moon – and developing a disdain for each other. That is really how silly racism is.

     As far as mixed marriages go; we all know there are "superior" and "inferior" models in every race, creed, and color. Some people are just Bozos – it doesn't matter what color they are. And visa-versa of course!

     Since the occupant of the space-suit so to speak; is the unique operator of the vehicle, or suit – it is the occupant which is the valuable component. What they say is true; it is what is inside of us that matters. Marry someone worthy – no matter what prejudice dictates. Do what's right for you – and then go chill out and have a soda. When we cross breed until we are all the same color – some people will just find another excuse to marginalize others.

Q: What are the earliest incarnations of man in the Mystical and Esoteric Ancient Mystery School teachings? How long do the Mystics say we have been on the earth?

A: According to the ancient texts which are often deemed ancient esoteric teachings, or occult science and occult spirituality –much longer than we are told. The "pre-deluge" civilization generally called Atlantis (it has other names), was somewhere between 35,000 and 70,000 years ago.

     These ancient texts also describe earlier epochs in our development prior to the pre-flood culture in most records. They claim that in lesser developing forms, that we were the "children of the fire-mist" on a still cooling earth. And that at this stage the "Gods" lived on top of great mountains above the fire-mist. We were not aware and what we would call "human" yet – but we were building the form (like a pre-amphibian was a fish).

     The intent of human form it is said, although not yet manifest fully was said to exist as one of the earlier forms. Right from goo in a swamp; all life is the same spirit on tour – it is just the developmental evolution and awareness that constitutes what we are – not the form or body. We have been here since the beginning – only not in this form.

     While we might argue that these forms were not yet human and do not represent us – they were just lesser forms of the same spirit we represent now. In a way the ancients had the right perspective on this answer at least. We are "life-force" which changes shapes and forms as required to evolve and develop; ergo we were here prior to the very first forms.

     As life itself – we have been here since the beginning. As "human beings" as we know them – we have been here between 35,000 and 70,000 years. Some claim even longer. The longest time I encountered in my research was 400,000 years – right up to hundreds of millions of years. But if you are asking how long in an earlier form of hominid we have existed, back to when we were cave dwellers – several million years might be closer to the answer.

Q: Is the Bible the undisputed word of God as is claimed?

A: Certainly not; especially given the narrow definitions and the pompous position that each faith takes that "they" have the only words of God. At most; our bible is only one of the books which contain the words of God. What kind of a God would only tell white people in certain countries, in a very late narrow margin of time – His Word?

     There are many sacred texts, not just one. That being said; most bibles qualify as the interpreted words of God. The gospels of the life of Jesus; are the same formula of initiation from other spiritual texts that everyone must pass through, to the truth and the light.

     Thoth said that this information was to be found in every faith, all of nature, in every form of art, the sciences, and inside ourselves – and not in any one place. Give what we call God the credit due – don't you think? Compared to the "selective path notion" - Thoth's answer is far more satisfying to the intellect. Not to mention it would work better; and if I give any credit to God's abilities – His handiwork should be self evident everywhere.

     All we have to do is be open minded enough to study the other bibles and texts to see they are the same information with slightly differing interpretations due to the perspective of the individual writing – and the time period when it was written. The short answer is inclusive; all spiritually inspired texts are the word of God - as perceived by man.

Q: Does the western bible condone meditation? Some religionists tell us that meditation is occult and not acceptable.

A: They will tell you this – but it isn't true. You can prove this to them with their own bible. The Christian bible is rife with quotes to do with meditation. The ancients described meditation as the ability to visualize patterns in the light, to assist us on the quest for the meaning of life. Mystics, Occult Spiritualists, Alchemists, Thoth (in the Emerald Tablets), and our favourite prophets and saints in the western bible, as well as countless others, also all make specific references to meditation, and call us as children – Children of the Light to make it more obvious.

     Meditation is the best way to "talk to God." The next time one of theses poor confused souls pulls out their bible, and starts flipping through it to read you pre-selected quotes; pull out this list and tell him to read some himself! Every quote about a "single eye" is a reference to meditation, just as it is in the eastern beliefs. (Either that or you believe that God is telling us to poke out one eye so that we might better see Him!) These are just a few I found.......

     Rev - 22-4 & 22-5: And they shall see His face; and His name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no light there; and they need no candle, neither light from the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light; and they shall reign for ever and ever.

     Mathew – 6-22: The light of the body is the eye; therefore if thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.

     Psalm – 19-14: Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight oh Lord, my strength and my redeemer.

     Psalm – 49-3: My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

     Joshua – 1-8: This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but they shall meditate therein day and night, that they mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

     Job – 1-20: My friends scorn me, but mine eye poureth out tears unto God.

     Ephesians – 5-8: For ye were sometimes in darkness, but now ye are light in the Lord, walk as children of the light.

     Psalm – 1-2: But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law doth he meditate day and night.

     Psalm – 13-3: Consider and hear me Lord my God; lighten mine eyes lest I sleep the sleep of death.

     There are many more – but I think you get the gist. Meditation is not only an Eastern practice, nor is it a strictly mystic, occult, or esoteric method for connecting to universal consciousness – it is also the way Christians should at least occasionally do it.

     A little deep breathing, some reverence, an invitation to the Intelligible Light, and some exercise and patience – will yield undeniably superior results. Prayer is for giving thanks and showing reverence and should be done daily – meditation is for connecting and asking the big questions, and done less frequently – it takes longer.

     Meditation is deep prayer with the express goal of seeking and experiencing answers. Didn't our Creator more than hint that He would answer those prayers? What do you think that meant? Surely tell me we are not still waiting for some guy that looks like ZZ Top on a Throne poking His finger through a cloud, bellowing answers through an ethereal loudspeaker!

     Apparently; some see it that way – and I guess even that is alright for them. But with a bigger definition for what we call God (from a tiny perspective) – comes a more user-friendly operating system.  All belief systems incorporate the practice of meditation, because they all share a root – and because it works.

Q: Was the earth really created in seven days?

A: I get to pop a lot of balloons here........ The consensus is that it was more like in seven epochs, or ages, or seven changes. All it is telling you is that it took six transformations and a test run (the seventh day) to create.

     If you read the "seven days bit" again with this in mind it makes more sense. Each day is a transformation – it isn't very difficult to deduce from what it is said happened on each day.

     Science could consider these the six stages of the big bang if it makes it easier to relate to. First the intention or causation, then the expansion or inflation, the separation of the energies, the firmament or solid stuff being made, the balance struck between expansion and collapse as in a star (there shall be light), and so on and so forth......

     Thus we see the significance of our seven spiritual centers or chakras, the seven lamps, the seven Angels around the throne, and the number seven spiritually. The seven days concept was a way to explain it to a very early man, who had no concepts for infinities, holograms, fractals, epochs, and such – yet.

     Don't kid yourself; the knowledge behind these statements has only recently been uncovered by science. Thousands of years ago; let alone a couple of hundred years ago – these concepts had been interpreted from the same God – by a less cognitively aware man. It was symbolic. For some that makes it lesser – and I can't see why?

Q: Is there any religion other than the western version of Christianity that denies rebirth?

A: No; every belief system incorporates the notions of cyclic life, including Christianity. The Christians, and Catholics, and the Jews (most of them, at least currently) – are the only three that claim we only go around once (and of course the obligatory "the bible says so"). Which is wrong as wrong can be! But it isn't really what it says – not even in the only three who deny it.

     I like to solve this simply with two corrective lenses. First a bit of religious history is in order. The Christians and Catholics are "off-shoots" of the Jewish faith. If you will recall – Jesus was initially a Jew (and a rebel to boot – but I shan't go there).

     So the truth be known; there was only one belief system, that of the Jew – which supposedly didn't include the notions of cyclic life. Upon closer examination however; any 15watt spiritual detective will connect a couple of more dots – and completely repair this popular misconception.

     The Jewish faith historically is a derivative of the more ancient Kabbalah. The Kabbalah is like the Old Testament and then some. It is about Creation and how life works, and technically not even a religion. To get back on point – the Ancient Kabbalah incorporates the same themes as the other religions of reincarnation. Ergo; if even the Jewish faith has the same roots in Babylon, then there really is no such religion which denies cyclic life. If they try to deny this; ask them to explain the ancient occult numerology employed by the faith.

     The second corrective lens is that once again; these people don't read their own stuff – either that or they couldn't interpret their way out of a wet paper bag! Ask the Minister the following.

     "Where was I before I was born?" To which the usual standard response is; "You were a spirit with God." Next question; "If I do it right – where do I go when I die?" The standard response once again; "You go back to God as a spirit." So I ask; "If I was a spirit before I came here; and then I have this life cycle called birth and death – and then another spiritual existence with Creator (or Creation)..........did I miss something – or did you?" Case closed. I can't tell you why they deny it, but I can show how wrong the premise is.

Q: Why if religions promote that we should love one another – do we fight wars and do the opposite?

A: Because we don't really get it yet (an obvious answer to be sure). What this does is nicely illustrate our present shortcomings and explain our difficulty interpreting scriptures.

     This is why Christ himself said; "I come not to bring peace, but with a sword" – which is one of the most perplexing things for us to understand. It is because fighting and difficulty are a requirement of our evolution. All our fighting, no matter how seemingly pointless and brutal – will eventually break down the barriers which prevent our growth.

     This conflict required to grow takes place at an individual level, and as a group.  It just means we have some things to sort out yet – which shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. The more fighting – the thicker we are being!

     In case we forgot because it isn't talked about much in church – the Christian religion has been one of the bloodiest belief systems of humanity (Catholics are at least as guilty)! There were no greater crimes against humanity than those perpetrated in the name of God like the "Christian Crusades" and Spanish "Catholic Inquisitions."

     When the sword has done its work; the horror will become sufficiently appalling to compel us to peace. We fight for the same reason we do most things; to learn. One day in the future all mankind will adopt the words of Thomas Paine who said; "The World is my Country – and to do good my Religion." I would like to add that "every child is our own."

     After the learning process; the lesson is conquered. It just depends on how much of "the sword" it takes to wise up.

Q: What was the purpose behind the practise of marrying within the family to preserve royal bloodlines? Is it not a sin?

A: In our earlier evolution it was encouraged to "keep it in the family" (as sick as that sounds) – for reasons long forgotten and seldom discussed. Interbreeding is a breeding practice still employed by animal breeders today. It was a way to "fix" certain traits in the bloodline.

     Later as we developed physically and cognitively; we evolved out of the practice (or at least most did). It was abandoned for the same reasons as always; more birth defects – and often nasty ones. An animal breeder watches closely for these defects of body and mind – and culls many animals to facilitate "the fixing" of the traits and genes.

     But originally, this was just as much about "fixing the mind" or conscious attributes of the human offspring – thus a higher evolved royal mind in advance of the general population was produced. I'll take it one step farther; it was also about "fixing" certain clairvoyant abilities to do with spirituality. These inter-family unions were promoted mainly between the intellectually, spiritually, as well as physically gifted (the three aspects once again).

     These were the Men of Renown spoken of in Bibles, they were the Pharaohs and Kings of old that ran things and guided the culture of humanity towards the knowledge of a higher evolved end.

Q: Why are there seven Angels before the Throne, seven Logos, and what is the significance of number seven?

A: Just as light refracted through a prism is broken into the seven basic colors of the spectrum, so also are the spirits of which God is comprised, refracted into seven great spirits such as the Logos.

     The seven spirits before the throne are the seven aspects of it. The seven Logos are the seven spirit divisions. Also this is repeatedly used in Revelation with seven Angels releasing seven vials.

     In Mysticism – these represent our seven Chakras or our seven spiritual centers within us. This is why seven is the number of perfection, or better stated higher evolved spirituality. It represents a time when we have lit all seven lamps, or spiritual centers inside ourselves.

     To a devout Christian this realization might be when it is said that Christ touched their heart. To the Buddha it meant the full realization of the true nature of reality, in essence that everything is made of God-stuff. This can take the form of a moment of Zen, or a spiritual epiphany of any denomination, it doesn't matter.

Q: Alright; if "everything is God" then how does that give us the right to kill even the lesser creatures and pests?

A: All life is a part of creation, and ultimately there is only one life in the universe. Each creature is the reflection of this according to its conscious pay-scale, if you'll excuse my analogy. With that in mind; I'll try and explain this for you as best I can.

     For one thing; if you live in a clean environment, and you don't pack people and animals too close together to be unhealthy like in cities and on commercial farms – most pests can be controlled by means of cleanliness, good planning and better farming practice.

     As for the few pests that you must eliminate to facilitate a proper environment; think of them as an unwanted part of yourself – which you would gladly sacrifice for the good of the whole. Like a pimple to be popped, a toenail to be clipped, or a blemish or unwanted hair that requires plucking. The unit survives as a whole.

     Take what Spock said in Star Trek to heart; that in some situations – the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.

     Although the Buddha was correct about every last mote of life being a reflective property of God; and although he professed that we shouldn't harm not even an insect if it was not necessary – it is hard to live without walking on the grass, eating something you pluck or kill, or doing a little damage learning about life and surviving to do so!

     Everything alive does harm in order to exist. It is the thought behind the deed as always which is to be considered – how you "feel" about it. So the truthful answer is that to vanquish a pest in as humane a way as possible is alright. Try a little harder and go a little farther in your efforts to be kind.

     To hunt or harvest to provide sustenance so that you might take your rightful place in the food-chain – is perfectly harmonious with this as well. To hunt for sport or to satisfy the above needs without regard for the activity of it – is the true sin. For example; if an animal kills merely for the sake of killing and takes more than it needs, or is excessively cruel – we call it sick and cull it.

     I'm glad what we call God hasn't done that to us. In a way it proves if there is such a thing as God – He is far more benevolent than we are taught with the whole fear mongering and retribution thing.

     Only kill what you must, and only in the most humane way, give some conscious thanks for it, and we are talking about the lesser creatures here and not people. It is always a sin to kill another person no matter what. Don't worry; their own karmic debt will tend to them. If we knew; we'd feel sorry for them and try and help – even though they make us mad and are messed up.

Q: Why are there two creation stories in Genesis? Why does God seem to make everything again – after He said that what was created was good? Wasn't it?

A: Two answers are generated depending on the specifics of the question. One belief is that this "Garden of Eden" and re-making of man is an explanation of when we were no longer a cave dweller and hairy, and had become aware. I like to cause a little ruckus and call it the "Garden of Atlantis story" because you couldn't explain it any better. Perhaps "Fred Flintstone meets Thoth in Atlantis" merits equivalent ranking.

     So the first answer is it that it is about when we changed into homo-sapiens, and the creatures of the earth changed.

     The second answer has again to do with more than one aspect of man – the one we tend to forget. In this consideration; one creation was about physicality, and one was about spirit, or conscious awareness. It might well be the telling of first our bodily creation, and secondly of our further conscious evolution into what we are now. The story of the body, the story of the mind; and as a possible future story of spirit (the Tree of Life perhaps)....there is that Trinity concept again! Body, mind, soul; or the waking conscious, the subconscious or higher self, and the super-consciousness we call Spirit or Creator or God by endless names.

Q: Western beliefs are generally "monotheistic" (one God) and Eastern, Tribal, and more ancient beliefs generally employ "multiple Gods" – which is correct?

A: Contrary to popular belief; there is no contradiction between a single Creator God with a big "G" – and multiple lesser gods with a small "g." We are conditioned to only consider the greater Creator God. But as it is said; God works through his creation – and not autonomously. God doesn't actually do anything – he initiates activity.

     In an abstract sense; just as He inspired Witnesses to write His Truths about the True Nature of Reality called Bibles – through them. However in the bigger picture all the hands are His. He still does it – just not Himself physically. It really is in how you look at it.

     The lesser Gods in other cultures are just the "Higher Angels" in our beliefs – that's all. The ancients often called "Gods" the physical and non-physical beings above us – but below the Creator. All they are saying is what our Bible said; that Jesus was Lord. I merely suggest that most prophets were rated in the same fashion in other beliefs also.

     Just consider the notion of "Jacob's Ladder" in the Jewish faith. Then think about a "Corporate Ladder." There are many rungs on the ladder between us and the top. Somewhere between us and the Creator – live lesser Gods.

     Let me say it another way – some are closer to God and warrant higher status. Within a very confining vernacular – those who are much closer to the Absolute have often been called Gods in their own right......and in a sense perhaps rightfully so.

Q: How are we to believe in a Virgin birth; and Immaculate Conception?

A: In the metaphoric sense at the beginning, all life was the result of virgin birth; all life was initiated without sex. The first seed or plant, or chicken or egg, or the parent/ child conundrum in perpetuity – always had to be a Virgin birth, so to speak. However; as for "virgin birth" in this instance of Immaculate Conception, we are not talking about a purely physical consideration.

     As always this is a consideration of the metaphysical causation and spiritual state of the mother. In many times in our history; our measure of the purity or evil of a person was measured in terms of the purity of their heart – or their conscious state. This is the same.

     There is both a physical manifestation of us as a human being; as well as a metaphysical, emotional, consciousness based aspect – which is not physical. Simply expressed; it is a state of mind. This is in this case applied to the mother.

     A pure heart and intention is what is implied by virgin birth. The mother may or may not have been physically pure – yet expressly consciously pure where it counts. This is a measure of soul quality. A Virgin mother could be said to have a chaste inner nature. This is the real reason that Jesus hung around with beggars and whores – many were spiritually pure.

     For example; in dark times – a woman might have been forced into sex without her consent, or to escape abject poverty.......without conscious blessing. Would that affect her purity? Not unless she willingly gave herself over to the act. This is what is meant – a child conceived of two loving parents where the mother gives herself willingly to the act for the purpose of procreation.

     It means that a child begotten without the sin of lust and passion – is immaculately conceived. When lovemaking becomes an act of prayer and pure love and intentions – all men will be "immaculately conceived." If you'll note; in the Bible more is made of the purity of consciousness than that of the body. It is only us who seem wholly concerned with the physical.

     Another way to say this would be; If the couple making love are elevated consciously with the Universal Soul when they orgasm, or conceive – the blueprint and metaphysical instructions in the seed would benefit. Sex with Love is better – go figure!

Q: Some very prominent accredited scientists tell us that "God" isn't required to explain reality. They claim that physics, can explain everything without a Creator. Why shouldn't we believe and accept this as fact?

A: They are missing some critical inputs to be able to make this claim. Inputs that are not part of their calculation to derive their conclusion – ergo it is a false statement. It certainly doesn't jive with the other things the scientists say, like; "The more we know – the more we don't know!" If each discovery generates more questions than it answers; shouldn't the ultimate answer be more elusive – rather than a forgone conclusion?

     Ask them a few select questions. How much of our reality does science conclude is not visible to our limited senses? Even considering our "gadget advantage" – we can't see the bulk of reality. If we can't see over 90 – 99% of our reality yet – how can we dare say we know everything about how it operates? The odds of the scientists being credible on this point – are the inverse of the 99%.

     For confirmation of this; consider why we can't detect these forces and activities. Things are invisible to us because they are moving too fast, moving too slow, too small to see, to big to see, outside our visible spectrum, in an alternate state, in another dimension which permeates ours, and exist at timescales above and below our temporal ability to relate to them.

     If all that wasn't enough; we might start at the beginning. Because calling God a Big Bang doesn't explain things any better than spirituality. Science always bypasses the first cause and labels it a given, or the mystery of nature – which if you think about it doesn't really answer the question. It is not a sufficient answer to rule out a special element to life.

     At best; this is a 50/50 gambit – how dare anyone rule it out and leave us with a mystery pile in fear of avalanche. What science is telling us is; give us the first miracle - and we'll explain the rest! Yet with no explanation for the first cause or miracle; they profess complete knowledge – and tell us something called God by "any description" is not required. I offer some mirth to illustrate this point in the form a joke that hits home for most.

Eventually the scientists get cocky enough to actually tell God that He is no longer required – that they can do anything themselves with science!

God takes the challenge and asks the scientists if they can make a man?

After a short powwow; the scientists tell God that with the advent of cloning and genetic modifications that they could indeed make a man.

So God ups the ante a little; "Alright; but can you make a man from dirt?"

This is a bit tougher, so the scientists have a meeting and brainstorm for a while and return to respond to God. "Actually God; if we take amino acids like on the early earth, and applied electrical currents, and nurtured the life generated, and worked at it for a great period of time – we feel that even this request is possible."

Then God smiles and shows them the error of their ways. "Alright; I just have one last request – USE YOUR OWN DIRT!"

     The reason our knowledge is expanding exponentially – is because what we don't know greatly exceeds what we do know, things like first cause. Use your own judgement; but there are more things we can't see and don't know – than there are things we do. Anyone who tells us they know how everything works and that science is cut and dried – had too many bong hits!

Q: When a star goes supernova, why does it create a black hole?

A: The scientific explanation that the star generated the black hole when it collapsed beyond the capacity for this dimension or matrix to contain it is only partially correct. And not at all correct about the black hole part.

     All stars and cosmic bodies in the esoteric texts were said to have this point at their core already – that it is what gives them life and how they work. The short answer is that the black hole was always at the center of the star – it just became visible after it cast of the outer shell. It just shed its outer garment and disrobed.

     It was claimed by the ancients that even planets had such a central core; which was the engine for the planet or star. It is also the best theory to explain initial formation. Some scientists are not as opposed to these ideas as you have been led to believe on the TV. In the scientific subculture – these are the unannounced answers. You can tell by working the theories they generate backwards.

     The scientists foraging for answers with the future cutting edge concepts in hand, claim that this same central point better explains the engine-like self generating properties that planets and stars exhibit. Things like ceaseless rotation and spin dynamics. North and South poles, magnetic shields, and an atmosphere, and independent thermal output – are all easier to explain when we place a wee tiny star at the center of the earth.

     As a matter of fact; in the pre-flood texts (which some wrongly claim to be false) – the notion that the earth is a star which has crusted over from repeated precipitation is commonly employed. The hot inner core, the energies generated, and the activity of volcanoes and tectonic plate movements are much like the sunspots and activities of a star.......a star with a crust on it!

     To return to the question; everything is a star and acts like one (including you) - and they all have at their center this thing we call a black hole. But what do they tell us is in the center of the black hole? Singularity! Are you starting to see where this is going?

     At the center of everything is a singular central point and condition (an important caveat) which is common to everything else (In and of everything indeed!). Singularity means all places and times in one place - at once! This is why all the known laws of physics go out the proverbial window at Singularity. Everything is still a fractal version of the thing that started it all! Including you!! (Sorry to repeat myself – but it is my central point......not to be too puny!!)

     When a star supernovas – we become privy to how this works at the upper scale of the fractal. This is "Unification" beyond the scope of our wildest dreams! The problem is it factors in the First Cause. When a star casts off its outer shell – we got a peek at what was the heart and engine for that star. It didn't "just form!"

Q: Alright then – what is a black hole?

A: It is the collapse of this matrix, just like they tell us it is. In terms of math and physics it is a place in space/time that contains too much information for the grid. But stuff doesn't compress infinitely like we were told – it blows out into another dimension. This causes the vortices and the invisible waterfall we call a black hole.  If you could compress things infinitely – there would be no such thing as a black hole. One we can't see, I might add.

     As for what is "in" the black hole – it is an expanding universe! We live in one! When we look at the big bang as this phenomenon of creation from one dimension into another – it really fits. Our own universe is the result of just this process.

     The science gurus will tell you this is nuts and has no foundation in science. Then tell them to read "Black Holes and Baby Universes" by Steven Hawking. His graduating thesis was about how a black hole is like a big bang, or an act of creation. Just add the caveat of the dot and wave, or the turning inside out.

     I also found some science books from the late sixties in which some scientists clearly state that they believe that at the center of all stars – are black holes. I guess they kyboshed that, but it will soon be 50 years since that was written in a science text I posses.

     Remind them of the recent discovery that there is a super-massive black hole at the center of our galaxy – make that all galaxies!

     Then we might consider the Ancient Secret Mystery School teachings – because the information in secret societies like the Illuminati – also make this claim. The ancients knew a unique property was at the center of everything. As a last consideration for those who will entertain the notion – clairvoyants and mystics also speak of this as the center of the Mandela.

     The dot in the center of the yin and yang symbol, the center of the ancient flower of life, and all the circles with dots in them depicted in tribal symbols, and it is all representative of this ancient truth. God and Singularity share a definition. Black holes – are acts of Creation.

Q: What is the real definition of sin?

A: Separation from the Absolute. A sin is a crime against the Holy Ghost. The spirit repeatedly manifests physically from the instructions gathered in compound experiences. Everything we do that taints the shared field we would call a sin – must be expiated. This pay-back system is commonly called Karma.

     Thus the sins of the fathers are visited upon the children for generations, as sorrow and suffering. Sin causes bad karma for this reason. Sin at the individual scale is our own personal bad karma. Sin at the societal level – is what we are experiencing globally.

    Life is a reap what you sow process. Eastern and Western philosophies all tell us that we, and subsequent generations pay for these sins. A sin is a crime against the Holy Ghost, specifically against the operating system.

     A sin is a separation, from the good of the program. It means you made a detrimental negative input through poor choices. When we all realize how interconnected everything is; including consciousness – what we call sin will stop. We wouldn't hurt ourselves and others in this way if we really understood the operating system for life. It could be said that when we hurt another, we hurt ourselves. We don't get that yet.

Q: Is it our duty to share spiritual knowledge with others?

A: Any knowledge we obtain is not our exclusive property. Ideas come from the shared field of consciousness which we all tap into. They are community ideas gleaned individually.

     Also when we share such knowledge – we reaffirm it for ourselves in the process. Spiritual knowledge is to be used for the universal good. It does no good to hoard this information.

     This is shown repeatedly by those who realize spiritual truths and do not share them – as they often end up a recluse, or worse insane. Share it and don't force it on people would be my advice.

Q: Can we leave our bodies, and what is the purpose of the practice of leaving the body?

A: When a being reaches a state of realization regarding consciousness that permits out of body experiences – the spirit may leave the restraints of the body to permit a wider scope of activities while still physical.

     The body is like a container, a fetter, and an anchor, which it is beneficial to vacate at will to facilitate clairvoyance. By shutting out every physical condition from view, the metaphysical is heightened; just as a blind mans other senses become more acute when his sight is removed.

     This is again repeatedly confirmed in near death experiences, where heightened consciousness without a body is often experienced. If you leave your container inadvertently when your body fails – this is what is experienced. You can deliberately induce this same effect to a lesser degree with training. A Shaman might do this with drugs to induce a vision quest which is much the same.

     Contrary to popular belief, this is an ancient practice which has been employed in various forms since time immemorial. The purpose is to gain wider knowledge by exploring the hidden components and aspects concealed by physicality. It is a tiny peek at what it is like to be spirit and experience anything you want to.

     As an added consideration; we do this when we sleep subconsciously – which is where all the whacky partial memories that don't fit with real life come from! You know; the ones where you can fly, or talk to anyone you want to, and wake up feeling like you learned something – but you can't quite put your finger on it?

Q: Is there everlasting damnation and salvation? What does this really mean?

A: How does that measure up to what the Bible said about all lost sheep being found? Or how about there being nobody without sin? We generally conclude that those who were good go to a vaguely defined Heaven and never fall. We also imagine that those who were bad go to an equally poorly defined everlasting place of misery.

     These concepts conflict with our notion of a kind and merciful God. What this really means is the usual being lost (and eventually found), and getting stuck (temporarily) so to speak. It is about the cycles of the soul school we call life and spirit.

     It also refers to the law of re-birth, and being stuck through an inability or unwillingness (usually the latter) to self correct and progress. Failing to grasp the lesson and having to repeat until you figure it out is what it means – which is lousy enough I would think to warrant mention. They suffer a seemingly everlasting, albeit never permanent condition of damnation to repeat.

     In the same way; as long as life continues to cycle – there is no such thing as permanent salvation yet either! The same would apply to a spirit in the good state we call Heaven – they might have a fall to return to the physical trials and tribulations. It may well be how we got here! This is much like graduating from elementary school as the big kids – only to begin again in high school as a the little kids. In a way every birth is this act of a spirit we are all part and parcel of, returning to physicality to develop, falling from grace as it were.

     So you can see that since life cycles in order to improve the whole – being stuck for too, too, long in either state would not be conducive to development. As long as life is a cyclic process – it will cycle between the usual two choices. And that doesn't apply just here; it also applies on the other side.

Q: What is the best method for keeping good thoughts? It can be trying to do so – if not impossible.

A: A good way to illustrate this would be to compare a bad person to a bad thought. If every time we encounter a person we despise; we enrage ourselves and aggravate them – the problem grows.

     However if we ignore the person and don't choose to take issue with them – the problem shrinks. Even better; if we can maintain a sense that they are merely a more confused version of you, or an irate brother or a sister – the constructive thoughts will be a step in the right direction.

     In much the same way; if we ignore, or correct our negative emotions and thoughts – we cleanse our minds of impurities. The reason for this is that we are co-creators and just like you are what you eat – we are what we think.

Q: Why are we told to procreate and marry and bear children?

A: This humorously enough, may well be what the true definition of sacrifice for God really means! Anyone who has raised children can attest to what a personal sacrifice is involved for an engaged parent! When we do this we create with the gift of our bodies. We create another vehicle for a soul. Not just the sperm part – the raising them part.

     This is not only how we perpetuate the species – but why we do so. The gift of a life experience for spirit to develop and evolve in is the real prize. That prize is best given through the act of love expressed as children.

Q: Is there a way to lessen the negative effects of "Judgement" or the life review we undertake upon our passing?

A: Unequivocally; yes! Every one of us falls short far too often of this lofty ideal of being perfect in our actions and thoughts. Everybody screws up, some more than others – which is what constitutes the negative effects of the life review (or judgement). Each poor choice we made in our lives, as well as the good choices we made is reviewed upon our passing. The thing most people don't know is that we conduct this review or judgement ourselves from a higher perspective.

     The notion of Hell is about us consciously fighting against admitting our poor choices. When we review an event which should have taught us something, and yet we still remain stubborn and won't admit defeat – we suffer the price for it. When we won't admit our trespasses we can't get past them.

     So the answer to the question of how we might mitigate the effects of the life review - it is to deal with as much of it here and now as we can. Every night before you pray or meditate, review the day's events. When you find a poor choice or unworthy thought you perpetrated on others – admit it to yourself and promise yourself to do better. That's it – it's that easy. Do some reviewing now, and save yourself from a difficult life review.

Q: Why do babies and children die prematurely?

A: I left this tough one for the end; because it is one of the hardest things for us to understand. Life is an exercise of spirit exchanging and evolving conscious energy, not about uniformity and equal conditions. Not everybody gets the same fair shake at life. Some have it worse than the child who perished prematurely and live a hellish existence – which is a similar complaint about God. In short; why would a benevolent and loving God let death and miserable existence - be an integral part of this experience?

     This life; is not the end for us – it is a developmental stage. Given this consideration one might still ask what the point of negating the development through premature death is. The problem is our view that life is fleeting and individual – because in the bigger scenario, it is anything but.

     A child may have lived merely to generate a conscious awakening in someone else; and its work being done it moves on. Another reason connected to this; is the reactions of others. For example; a parent who lost their child and became a hopeless, mean drunkard as a result – might be a good argument against what I am saying. However; if we look at many such grieving parents who chose to turn things around instead to honour the child by sacrificing efforts for others to this end – we see a positive side.

     The decisions made by the remaining parents and siblings, and the deeper contemplations and perhaps service generated by them, are one reason sadly for a seemingly pointless mortality. Maybe they saved a soul – a noble cause in the greater scheme.

     You just have to consider that they really are alright – in fact they are probably much better off than those left behind. In this sense; no cruelty has been perpetrated on the entity that left us. The cruelty was on us – that it might serve to give us the greatest gift of all – spiritual awakening.

     Some occult spiritual texts claim that in some of these cases these children were the victim of a past incarnation in which death was sudden and unrealized, or in essence where the transition of the soul has been incomplete. These souls it is said require a second passing to facilitate the complete transition of the soul. Maybe, just maybe; we helped them along.

     Contrary to most western belief systems; the baby was not a new soul just created. Each baby that perishes is not a new undeveloped spirit – but rather a developed spirit re - experiencing its death. This might be hard for those of us left behind; but every death whether eventual or premature – is an act of Creation. Death is a birth. If you died in such a way as to negate the transition in a previous incarnation – you can't reincarnate until you fix it.

     The Tibetan Book of the Dead - conceptually embodies this fully. To them; life is all about our death – not about our brief difficult life. The Egyptian Book of the Dead is also this theme. In fact; every bible and spiritual pursuit is about death when you think about it. If you ask yourself why; and have an open mind which allows you to embrace multiple belief systems – the answer is clear. Life and death is a big assed lesson.

     Nobody gets out alive correct? Whether we perish shortly after we come into the world, or we perish as a feeble old person – the point remains the same. Everyone dies as we know it by design. We are now at the crux of the question.

     While it might suck to be temporarily separated from those we love, it is only us who suffer – and it is temporary. But if nobody really disappears, and they are just waiting for us to catch up on the wheel of life amid the circles of existence – this is exposed as the greatest lesson. If they still exist in a more all inclusive dimension then ours; the same one I experienced without a heartbeat – it is only our own spiritual veil, and a boundary state that separates us – and not even that will – for long.

     The answer to this question as we all know is never satisfactory to those left behind. But I would encourage those suffering through such loss to acknowledge that it is merely a separation – like prior to birth. Where we all come from – we go home to. They are just where we all are when not here. And as we all know – here can be less than pleasant at times. A child has little or no bad karma; and we who live to a ripe old age in the land of mistakes – will have no such good fortune.

     Children die because people do. But from what I can tell – we needn't worry that the same force that brought them into existence took them away. They are home – we are not! The act of life is like a good/bad road trip. But on the upside – it is a round trip.
