ETERNITY REDEFINED



It is embarrassing to realize that Einstein was right on both counts. (See below.) After some 4 billion years of “evolution”, we have reached the understanding of reality equivalent to that of an ameba. We surround ourselves with things, items we can perceive with our primitive senses, decorate our names with titles, and having saturated our minds with knowledge of the past, we seldom allow any new idea to penetrate our protective intellectual barriers. We rest on our laurels.
There is one other Albert’s quotation that I’d like to share: Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.”
After 4 billion years of education we, the homo extremely-non-sapient continue to emulate our bacterial origins by destroying the environment, which feeds us. Even grass and trees have learned more than we have in the last few billion years.
Traditions are at the root of this phenomenon. We are taught by our elders, to repeat the errors of the past, preferably by making them just a little more regressive than our parents did. We are not evolving. Our bodies might be, as might the nature that surrounds us, but men and women, with very few exceptions, are going down the drain of stupidity.

Yet… there are a Few that are Chosen. 
No, I cannot count myself among the Few, although I do claim to be among the Many that are called. The masses, the 90+% of the human race, is not included. Regrettably, evolution advances at a rate best defined as between dead slow and dead slow.
And this will continue until the next Ice Age. Or until the next meteor or asteroid strikes our still semi-verdant planet. But don’t worry. Nothing is lost in the phenomenal universe. We are all energy. Our bodies will be recycled until Omnipresent Creative Consciousness that permeates all reality with amorphous presence begins, once again, to individualize Itself. That which is omnipresent can only aspire to become diversified in the endless realities, to regard Itself from within and without.
This ubiquitous Energy remains eternally in a state of eternal Being. It is static, and all its attributes remain in their Potential capacity. We, the species endowed with biological computers, tend to call it God, yet it is neither good nor bad, neither saintly nor evil. It just IS. “My Father cannot behold evil,” remember? And when we close our eyes and manage to detach ourselves from the input of our senses, we can actually experience the awareness of that which IS. In such moments we can but whisper silently I AM.
I AM that I AM.
Not the “I am” that accumulates things of transient value, but the I AM that identifies with the infinite, immortal, indestructible, yes… even omnipresent that manifests within us. In such moments we might even begin to perceive what evolution is all about.

MORE DELUSIONS


No. God is not in our image and likeness. Nor is the reverse true. Not even a god adorning the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, no matter how beautiful. But there is one thing we do share with the Divine: the intangible, ephemeral yet indestructible energy of Consciousness.

“Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another,” according to Einstein.

Your Unconscious, your potential, is God. Or at least a minuscule expression though indivisible quintessence of God. Your Consciousness is the Son of God, and there is none other. God is the state of being. Unlimited, eternal, infinite, hence indefinable state of Being. We are the fractal expressions of Totality. So it the rest of the Universe. Or Muliverse—also an expression of infinity.
And yet, from time immemorial, men searched for an Overlord who’d dispense life and death, reward and punishment, over their creation. Not having found one, we continue to create gods in our image. We start slowly. We admire our Hollywood idols, then people endowed with titles, finally some politicians, plutocrats, and even generals and admirals.
And yet, none of these overlords are real. They wield power over the ephemeral, transient, even illusory products of our egos. Our true Selves remain inviolate, inaccessible, impervious to their imaginary authority. Their power, like everything else in the phenomenal universe, is transient and hence illusory. They come and go… the presidents, prime ministers, kings and queens, popes, and billionaires.
Sic transit Gloria Mundi.
Their power is illusory.
Yet we continue. The real I AM is immortal, impervious, eternal, indivisible from  that which we regard and God. Indivisible from the omnipresent, omnipotent, eternal energy. “My Father and I are one,” remember?
Aren’t we lucky?
To repeat, anything and everything that we can perceive with our (very limited) senses is ‘artificial’. It consists of energy at such low rates of vibration that it is only suitable for recycling. It is not part of the permanent reality. It is a transient construct of our minds. As already stated, our reality is no more than energy at different rates of vibration.
We will have reached our present evolutionary task when we merge consciousness expressed by our Ego and our Self into a Singularity. When the Potential and Its expression become One. Like a Black Hole? And then we might choose to explode into a new Universe…


And this brings me to my book. A reviewer wrote: “With frequent sprinkling of humor and considerable intellectual prowess, the author exposes DELUSIONS masquerading under the guise of science and religion.”

UNIVERSAL LAWS

“Each man receives according to his ability to receive”. The saying originates in the Bible with the story of talents, and is picked up, if a little inaccurately though surprisingly, by Karl Marx. The point is, however, that neither Bible nor Marx affirms that this is a truism derived from nature. The saying teaches neither religion, nor even social justice, but simply conveys the manner in which the universe works. It is true of man, of all animals, all fauna and even flora. Every living creature can only absorb the gifts that nature has to offer according to the evolutionary level that it, or he, or she, has reached.
There is no good or evil in nature. There is only a state of balance which we must restore after each venture into new territories of endeavour.
After all, we are all states of consciousness. No less, and no more. As is all creation. We are forms of energy vibrating at different rates. Only the rate of vibration of consciousness is infinite, hence omnipresent.
As for right or wrong—what is right for one may not be right for another. Again, this is true of men, of animals, of all living entities including plants and trees. Within the context of genera, or any division of fauna and flora, the only quality which determines its ‘righteousness’ or departure from it is the loss of the state of balance.
This is not to say that we should stay put in the old, tried out way. Just the opposite. Life, the essence of life, relies on the ability we develop through oscillating to and from the Event Horizon, from the state of balance, hovering precariously between being and becoming.
There is no death, of course.
There is only stasis and movement.
Stasis is potential, movement is life.
However, the Universal Laws demand that we do not venture too far from the “straight and narrow”, from the Event Horizon. From this vantage point, or line, or this state of consciousness, we must venture out, experiment, try out and conquer new challenges, ever maintaining contact with our departure point. We must all venture out according to our ability or talent, with which evolution equipped us.
We are instruments, biological robots, through which the Omnipresent Intelligence reaches out to ever more challenging pastures. All ideas already exist in their potential form within the Source. Life is the energy which enables those ideas to manifest at different rates of vibration, up to and including the most transient, the most ephemeral form of the phenomenal Universe.


BEYOND RELIGION Essays examine other aspects of our perception of reality. Below a few 5 STAR blurbs about the 3 collections:

Enriching
Excellent!

You must, of course, decide for yourself.  
Your reviews, your thoughts, are important to me.
 Please be brief but explicit. You don’t have to agree with me!

Heaven & Earth & Hell


Most of us remember the saying: “Many are called, but Few are chosen.” First, we must ask what of the many, many, more who have not been called, who never heard the Word. What is to happen to them? I call them the Third Party. It seems that the nomenclature needs elucidation.
Those who rely on biblical statements and who heard the Word are, reputedly, amongst those that have been called. The question is, what word have they heard. If they rely on scriptural statements that are veiled in symbolic meanings to protect them, “lest the pearls be cast among the swine”, then they must decipher ancient symbolism. If not, then whatever they heard is relatively close to nonsense. People like Richard Dawkins ridicule the word, as they are totally ignorant of their symbolic meaning.
Yet even those who have heard and understood it, still have a choice to put the knowledge into practice or to ignore it. Only those who actually practice the word are among the ‘Few’. Very, very Few…
The rest, the vast majority, are the Third Party.
If this vast majority reacts to the dictates of nature, they cannot be blamed. After all good and evil is a purely human invention. We forget that what is good for some, might well be bad, let alone evil, for someone else. Democrats and Republicans will attest to that.
No. There is only a state of balance.
After all, “strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life”. And here comes symbolism. There was no nomenclature available 2000 years ago, to explain the issue. The gate is the narrow range of alpha brainwaves through which we can enter the inner reality. As for the “narrow way” — it corresponds to the Event Horizon. It is the narrow path from which we can either fall into the dissolution (the black hole), or spread our wings to increase the diversity of the Infinite Potential, of which we are but tiny individualizations.  After all, “as above, so below…”


These subjects are both elaborated in my books. The secret doctrine can be studied with the aid of my DICTIONARY OF BIBLICAL SYMBOLISM. As for the Event Horizon, AWAKENING, book 3 of the Avatar Trilogy, delves into the reality of Heavens. The inner realities begin in our subconscious and end in infinity. Even our scientists, some of them avowed atheist, accept the concept of infinity with amagnanimous gesture. Until recently,  only God was infinite. God, the Infinite Potential in the timeless condition of being. Now, the stage of becoming joined the divine. And becoming is Life itself.
