WHAT IS TRUTH ... and can one ever discover it?

 That is... what is the purpose of life?  I ask this because I believe I recently awakened to what I believe is a glimpse of what the Purpose of Life is... and what I experienced was really strange.

Would you believe that the purpose of life is to explore and experience what life is?  ...for we Souls who are in the midst of fulfilling that "Purpose"!  That is... what we know of as "life"...  is an exploration of all the physical plane ingredients by which we Souls are discovering [literally discovering by living in]... what Creation is for... which is to "help we Souls "learn" what being on Earth... [ in the Creation]  is all about... in order to awaken to an understanding of what physical phenomena is, can do,  become, and how it differs from "Spiritual Reality"... which for me is something that "does not change"... ever.

Why would we Souls "need to" be on Earth to "learn" what the Purpose of Life is?  Because life on Earth is nothing like who and what we Souls are.  Take for example, the term "Truth".  Why is it that no one seems to know what the Truth is?  And yet, every Soul is entirely composed of Truth.  Find that hard to believe?  I know it seems most unlikely... but it is nonetheless the Truth... in so far as I can discover.

I have referred to the Energy of the Soul as "NSgy," or Neutral Spiritual Energy, for quite some time, and the reason I do so is that many years ago I realized that each Soul is an aspect of God, and the Energy of God seemed to me to be an Absolute Energy.  And by "Absolute" I mean an Energy that never changes.  Which is how I define  the terms Truth, and Reality.  So, what is Truth... that does not change?

Webster's New Dictionary defines Truth as:   1.Conformity to knowledge, fact, actuality, or logic. 2. Fidelity to an original or standard. 3. Reality; actuality.

Personally, I define Truth as Permanent and unchanging... which for me is not unlike Reality, as opposed to the Illusion of the Creation, which is constantly changing.  So, I believe we Souls  are aspects of God, whom I believe is Absolute Truth, Reality, and Love.  But on Earth, we Souls are very much operated by the MIND that is attached to every Soul in the Creation... which enables the Soul to explore and experience the Creation.  For the purpose of "learning" what life on Earth can teach we Souls about the physical plane of existence.  Which is fairly negative, isn't it?  That is, life absent the Reality of the Pure Spiritual Dimension of existence... which most Souls on Earth have forgotten a long time ago. And if it were not for special Souls like Jesus, and various Saints and Mystics,  we Souls would be up a creek without a paddle!

That's  a snapshot of what exists on Earth.  What this particular blog hopes to do is to attempt an explanation of what is "mystically" taking place within we Souls presently on Earth.  "The Purpose of life, in other words,"is not easily discovered by simply observing life on Earth.

THE QUESTION today IS... about INVISIBILITY ?


 The question of the day is this:


What if the vocabulary f the Pure Spiritual Realm does not contain any negative language at all?  As opposed to this physical plane which contains all kinds of negative language, and many levels of people who are quite negative...Some are even quite evil!

Try to imagine this as a Reality... because this is precisely the situation we human beings face!

Now...look at yourself.  Try and imagine yourself without any ability to "relate" to the Pure State of a Perfect Living Master, or Mystic, or someone like Christ.  That is, a Soul sent by God into this world as a special human being... precisely to contact certain human beings [who are "marked" to be "Initiated" by that Special Soul].  This is the situation in which we human beings exist, and in the West we are quite unprepared to deal with this situation.  A situation in which a special Person of Truth attempts to talk to human beings regarding Truth and Reality... however, we human beings know nothing of Truth, Reality, or Pure Spirituality!  Spirituality. by the way... is INVISIBLE ENERGY!

For instance... to help me explain what the phrase  "God is Within Man" refers to... it refers to the Energy of God, which I label "Neutral Spiritual Energy," or NSgy.  Saints and Mystics tell us that such Energy is Known by them by many names, but all these names refer to the same INVISIBLE ENERGY! NSgy is invisible because it is a unique realm of Energy, that ONLY the Soul of Man can perceive.  So, what exists "within" Man is the unique Energy of God... which is one's Soul... which contains nothing that is negative.

Who among us KNOW what  Love, Truth, and Absolute Forgiveness means?  To the normal human being, such terms are simply abstract terms found in a dictionary.  And a Soul sent by God into this physical realm is unique in that such a Soul of a Perfect Living Master is above the MIND, and Knows Pure Spirituality.  No negativity, in other words.   This makes the task of the Master difficult because he or she speaks Truth, which we normal human beings cannot "hear, see, nor relate to"... at best we know relative truth, which is always changing.

So, how does a Soul achieve the transition from being controlled by one's MIND to elevating above one's MIND and opening oneself to the Pure Spirituality of one's Soul?  It takes years of very hard work and dedication, and a special form of meditation... that these special "Masters" reveal to those Souls who are marked by God.  It is a transition that begins with an awakening of the NSgy of that Soul... which had been forgotten over time.

A transition from being a regular human being into a Soul that achieves Self-realization, which means shifting one's Consciousness over time to a level of Enlightenment that helps that Soul rise above the Illusion of Creation [and attachment to this Illusion of Creation]... by replacing the lifetimes of being in the Illusion (and all the Karma that Soul had acquired over these lifetimes), by dedicated meditation focused on embracing  NSgy, or Pure Spirituality... unique in Existence.

PURE SPIRITUAL ENERGY IS THE ENERGY OF GOD, and we Souls.

 

This box stands for the Energy of one's Soul, which is the Energy of God... which I have labeled "Neutral Spiritual Energy," or "NSgy".  In other words, your Soul is an aspect of God.  And the only way your Soul can relate to the Creation is by use of the MIND which was attached to each Soul as each Soul entered the Creation.  Your MIND was required because your MIND was specifically designed and a go-between your Soul and your physical brain... so that your Soul  can [sort-of physically and intellectually] explore and experience the Creation... which is, believe it or not, a most amazing ILLUSION. The only part of yourself that is Real is your Soul.

So, here we are in the Creation, in firm belief that who we are is who we see in the mirror.  Problem is, that is not who or what we are.  No Soul of any life form is part of the Creation... only the body within which a Soul is operating is part of the Creation!  So, we believe there is life and death... because we see things die.  And we see things and people born.  And we believe [the brain within us believes] that this physical body within which one's Soul is operating is real, is who one is, and that one's body is subject to death... because we see people and other life forms die.  And it is true that one's body does die.  However, one's Soul is immortal and it does not die.  Our problem is that our Souls are not part of this Creation... and the only part of ourselves that can discover Reality is one's own Soul...which is composed of what I refer to as "NSgy," or Neutral Spiritual Energy... which is INVISIBLE to our physical senses..

So, Man on this  Earth is like an invisible "Knower" [the Attention aspect of Consciousness] which is the Soul's  connection with the Illusion of Creation ... and no part of one's Soul can  actually experience the Creation, which is what you see with your physical eyes... and is operating all around and even within you... that your MIND encourages your brain to "think' that what you can see, hear, taste, feel and touch constitute the only reality there is.  And we receive a new brain in each life-form into which we are incarnated, so it is extremely rare for any of us to "think about" our past lifetimes.

This is what Mystics and great Saints have been trying to tell Man for thousands of years.  But even with my attempt to tell people this message in this blog, how many people are likely to believe what I have written ?  Only people whose Souls are more Enlightened than they realize.

WHAT IS "INTUITION" ?

 I BELIEVE "INTUITION" IS AN ASPECT OF ONE'S CONSCIOUSNESS, WHICH IS THE ENERGY [I BELIEVE] OF ONE'S SOUL.  Which I REFER TO IT AS "NSgy"... or Neutral Spiritual Energy. The "key" being the term "Neutral".   Neither good nor bad, and  the duality we experience as good and evil is the energy of the MIND, which God Created to operate the Creation.  The Creation has both good and evil, or duality... and it was "Created"!  In other words, the Creation is not the Pure Spiritual Realm, and the Soul is a visitor to the Creation, it is not the HOME of the Soul.

What we know as "negativity" or evil, is of the MIND realm, which is the seat of duality... again, this is what I believe based on what little I know of existence.


NSgy is, I believe, the Energy of God, and since we Souls are aspects of God, the Energy of NSgy is also the Energy of we Souls.  Which is, I believe, Neutral and
Absolutely Neutral.  So, where does the duality enter into the picture?  I believe it is the Energy of the MIND [which God Created as part of the Creation]... which enables the Creation to possess the duality of good and evil.

And therefore, what is called "Intuition" is a part of one's Soul and also part of what we refer to as "Consciousness"... or what enables one's Soul to possess Awareness of the duality of good and evil. However, only Pure Spiritual Energy can perceive evil...  as other than itself...which is not part of the vibrational Energy of one's Soul.  Over time, one's Soul has forgotten who and what it is, and has become a servant of the MIND that is attached to one's Soul so that one's Soul can explore and experience the Creation.  And if one's Soul has awareness of evil as something negative and other than who and what its Soul is... then that awareness has been "acquired" by that Soul by "converting" a bit of Karma [that it acquired by engaging in some bit of evil at some time]... by having to experience the same bit of Karma itself, and has subsequently Forgiven those involved in that bit of Karma, and has taken full Responsibility for that bit of Karma!  This "converts" a bit of Karma into Knowledge, which then becomes an increased Knowledge of that which is evil.

This is the method by which we Souls slowly acquire Knowledge of good and evil, and the result is what we KNOW... as "Wisdom".   Or Enlightenment.  And if we KNOW that a certain action results in a given result... that Knowledge is our "growth" as a Soul.  It is our education as Souls.  This process is the evolutionary movement of we Souls through becoming Enlightened... which is how we acquire Wisdom, and the positive virtues of an Enlightened Soul.

So, if you Intuitively Know that a certain act will result in a given result... that is Knowledge, or Wisdom.  And that is also evidence that your Soul has acquired advanced Consciousness.  When one's Soul acquires a "sufficient" amount of Consciousness... [over many lifetimes] and one's Soul begins to tire of this Creation...one will be  drawn to a Perfect Living Master (who, by the way, was born to be a Perfect Living Master),  and one's Soul will desire to be "Initiated" by that Master... and  one' Soul will begin it's Spiritual process of going back Home to God.  This is what the Lord designed, and it is what all Souls are experiencing.  But only certain Souls are aware of this "program".

So, if you possess a substantial amount of Intuition, it is something you have "earned".

Slhakespeare...TO BE, OR NOT TO BE...

 SHAKESPEARE SAID:  "TO BE,  OR NOT TO BE..."

But, what was he referring to... exactly?  "TO BE"?  When did you get the choice to be, or not to be?

Interesting question, is it not?  My question for the History of Philosophy is this:  Where did Man come from... and when?  And why?   But those are questions for really wise people to discuss.

My answer is this:   "Neutral Spiritual Energy," or NSgy?  And, what do you know in the Creation that is composed of NSgy?  That is, what do you know that is actually  "Neutral"?

Oh... yeah, the Creation was Created, wasn't it?

1 Brother James, just asking questions again...

IN ALL OF EXISTENCE.. WHAT IS REAL ?

 In the whole of existence... the only thing we are missing is God.  And God is REALITY!






Can you believe it?  The only thing that is Real in existence... is God, and the actual presence of God is invisible to the Physical Creation, of which our bodies and senses are a part.  And yet, God exists in each of us.  What a great topic for a winter afternoon in America.

Who's up for a discussion of that which is invisible to us?

But specifically, how does one return to God?

 What makes explaining the way back to God difficult is that we human beings do not realize that we exist in an Illusion we [using our physical senses] cannot see, taste, touch,  nor think about using the brain... and thus, the whole of Reality is INVISIBLE to us.  It is like we are in a closed place, and everywhere we look, all we see is the reflection of ourselves in everything we can observe using our physical senses. And should any of us happen to come  across an advanced Mystic, or Saint, what could he or she possibly say that would be of help to us in discovering that which does not exist on this physical plane?


 

So, my question is this:   How does one explain that which does not exist on the physical plane of existence?  And your answer might be... (if you were an Enlightened Soul) ... to say that I must "go within" myself by means of special meditation to awaken a level of Consciousness that exists "within" me,  in a realm of Energy that is INVISIBLE to my physical senses, and in time I would begin to slowly become aware that I was "somehow" awakening to bits of understanding that.... somehow provided me with a form of Knowledge that I knew was the Truth... and yet,  I was unable to communicate this bit of Knowledge to anyone outside of myself... even though what I had come to suddenly KNOW was clearly the Truth.  NSgy = Neutral Spiritual Energy.

What I just wrote above is what makes dealing with Spirituality so difficult.  That which is of Spirituality is Permanent, as is TRUTH.  But to our physical senses, TRUTH is invisible.  Truth, in other words, does not exist in the Illusion of Creation.  In the  Creation we find only the abstract term Truth... which stands for a TRUTH we can experience only when one's Attention is focused in the Realm of Spirituality [in a higher level of Consciousness]. 

One's Soul does indeed exist, but it ONLY exists as Pure Spiritual Energy... which is not to be found in the physical Creation.  "Within" oneself is a MIND realm, and one's Spiritual realm, and both are invisible to one's brain.  Again my sketch:



We cannot easily accept the fact that we have a Soul but that it is invisible to the brain and one's physical senses.  We are trained from early childhood to "trust" the brain and its thinking.  So, it never occurs to us that the brain cannot perceive anything other than the physical  dimension.  No wonder our search for God is difficult.  We insist on expecting an intellectual path back Home.

More on this in my next blog... 1 Brother James


ACTUALLY... THERE IS A METHOD BY WHICH ONE CAN RETURN TO GOD!

 Many years ago... well, prior to life appearing on the Earth, God Created CREATION.   This is what the Bible tells us in Revelation. But this is  questioned by many people because there is no way for Man to prove this, except by the physical evidence... the origin of which is Creation... and the concept that it was Created by God cannot be proven.

So, Mankind is composed of two kinds of people:  Those who believe that God Created the Creation, and those who question the origin of Creation as being from God, and believe that what is now seen as Creation is simply the natural events of the "evolution of "nature".   And this division of different beliefs is due to a most interesting element!  ... which is not known by most people!  That is, what is not known by people is the fact that each person has (within him or her) something called "Consciousness," and one's Consciousness is continually growing [lifetime after lifetime].  You were aware, no doubt, that your Soul is immortal and does not die?  Well, the Soul is an aspect of God, and it composed of what I  refer to as "Neutral Spiritual Energy," or  the symbol NSgy... which is the Energy of God and one's Soul.  

[Every living thing has a Soul.  It is the Soul that is immortal, and Mystics tell us there are 8,400,000 different life forms into which a Soul can be born.  And if you are a human, then you have "earned" your status as a human being by a process of "evolution"].

And I believe that what we refer to as  "Consciousness"  is, in actuality... the Energy of a person's Soul!  And one's Soul, or level of Consciousness, determines what each of us "believes".   Well, specifically... what one believes is what one's MIND wants one to believe... which is in keeping with one's "Fate Karma" for this lifetime.  And that leads us to "Reincarnation" which is a concept that is not accepted by those people whose level of Consciousness is not [as yet] "evolved"sufficiently to believe what I am writing in regards to Reincarnation, or one's Soul being born again in a new body.

And, I am tossing out concepts that may not be widely shared? So, let us simply agree to accept that Man has a Soul.  And that another name for Soul might be "Consciousness".  And that Consciousness is something that naturally [and slowly] increases as one's Soul completes lifetimes on Earth. "Lifetimes on Earth"? Humm....

The method by which one's Soul can return to God?  Well, I will focus specifically on that topic in my next blog...  If really interested in all of this, then I recommend "The Path of the Masters," by Julian Johnson, which is available in many libraries.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN Intellect & Knowledge?

 Your intellect is your brain "thinking" what your MIND wants it to think. Knowledge is as aspect of Consciousness, which is what ...
