According to these mystical revelations, this gen- eration of souls migrated here in their subtle, soul bodies, many traveling first through the Sun. Shown in the foreground are two beings who arrived earlier and have fully manifested physical bodies. They are offering fruits and flowers (which were much larger then than now) to assist a new arrival in developing an Earth body. The arriving soul has taken his place on a sacred pedestal established for this purpose. A physical body will coalesce around his soul body and become more and more dense as he absorbs the sub- tle prâ∫as of the fruits, flowers and other substances. As Hindus believe, the ultimate attainment, nirvikalpa samâdhi, real- ization of the Self, God, is possible only in a physical body. This requires living on a fire planet such as our spinning blue-green globe called Earth. ilamauiryana< pata=aiNa THE BEAUTIFUL ART ON THE COVER OF LEMURIAN SCROLLS IS THE WORK OF S.

  • When Did Kali Yuga Start, How Long Is/Was It, and When Will It (Or Did It) End?
    When did Kali Yuga start, how long is/was it, and when will it (or did it) end? In the book The Holy Science (1894) Sri Yukteswar clarified that a complete Yuga Cycle takes 24,000 years, and is comprised of an ascending cycle of 12,000 years when virtue gradually increases and a descending cycle of another 12,000 years, in which virtue gradually decreases (See the above figure). Hence, after we complete a 12,000-year descending cycle from Satya Yuga -> Kali Yuga, the sequence reverses itself, and an ascending cycle of 12,000 years begins which goes from Kali Yuga -> Satya Yuga. Yukteswar states that, “Each of these periods of 12,000 years brings a complete change, both externally in the material world, and internally in the intellectual or electric world, and is called one of the Daiva Yugas or Electric Couple.” Unfortunately, the start and end dates as well as the duration of the ages are not agreed upon, and Sri Yukteswar (who I have deep faith in) is one of many individuals that have laid out differing dates, times, and structures. “In spite of the elaborate theological framework of the Yuga Cycle, the start and end dates of the Kali Yuga remain shrouded in mystery. The popularly accepted date for the beginning of the Kali Yuga is 3102 BCE, thirty-five years after the conclusion of the battle of the Mahabharata.” This quote is taken from a well-researched article, “The End of the Kali Yuga in 2025: Unravelling the Mysteries of the Yuga Cycle in the New Dawn online magazine which can be found HERE.

  • Understanding Our Seven Principles
    UNDERSTANDING OUR SEVEN PRINCIPLES A COMPILATION FROM H. P. BLAVATSKY AND WILLIAM Q. JUDGE Atma “Pure universal Spirit.” ["The Key to Theosophy" p. 92] "Higher Self. The Supreme Divine Spirit overshadowing man. The crown of the upper spiritual Triad in man - Atman." ["The Theosophical Glossary" p. 141, Entry for "Higher Self"] “Atma, the “Higher Self,” is neither your Spirit nor mine, but like sunlight shines on all. It is the universally diffused “divine principle,” and is inseparable from its one and absolute Meta-Spirit, as the sunbeam is inseparable from the sunlight.” ["The Key to Theosophy" p. 135] “This “Higher Self” is ATMA, and of course it is “non-materializable” … Even more, it can never be “objective” under any circumstances, even to the highest spiritual perception. For Atman or the “Higher Self” is really Brahman, the ABSOLUTE, and indistinguishable from it.” ["The Key to Theosophy" p. 174] “THE HIGHER SELF is - Atma, the inseparable ray of the Universal and ONE SELF. It is the God above, more than within, us. Happy the man who succeeds in saturating his inner Ego with it!” ["The Key to Theosophy" p. 175] “We apply the term Spirit, when standing alone and without any qualification, to Atma alone.” ["The Key to Theosophy" p. 115] “In hours of Samadhi, the higher spiritual consciousness of the Initiate is entirely absorbed in the ONE essence, which is Atman, and therefore, being one with the whole, there can be nothing objective for it. Now some of our Theosophists have got into the habit of using the words “Self” and “Ego” as synonymous, of associating the term “Self” with only man’s higher individual or even personal “Self” or Ego, whereas this term ought never to be applied except to the One universal Self.” ["The Key to Theosophy" p.

  • Archons (Commanders) [NOTICE: They Are NOT Anlien Parasites], and Then, in a Mirror Image of the Great Emanations of the Pleroma, Hundreds of Lesser Angels
    A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES A R C H O N S HIDDEN RULERS THROUGH THE AGES WATCH THIS IMPORTANT VIDEO UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact MUST-SEE THE OCCULT REASON FOR PSYCHOPATHY Organic Portals: Aliens and Psychopaths KNOWLEDGE THROUGH GNOSIS Boris Mouravieff - GNOSIS IN THE BEGINNING ...1 The Gnostic core belief was a strong dualism: that the world of matter was deadening and inferior to a remote nonphysical home, to which an interior divine spark in most humans aspired to return after death. This led them to an absorption with the Jewish creation myths in Genesis, which they obsessively reinterpreted to formulate allegorical explanations of how humans ended up trapped in the world of matter. The basic Gnostic story, which varied in details from teacher to teacher, was this: In the beginning there was an unknowable, immaterial, and invisible God, sometimes called the Father of All and sometimes by other names. “He” was neither male nor female, and was composed of an implicitly finite amount of a living nonphysical substance. Surrounding this God was a great empty region called the Pleroma (the fullness). Beyond the Pleroma lay empty space. The God acted to fill the Pleroma through a series of emanations, a squeezing off of small portions of his/its nonphysical energetic divine material. In most accounts there are thirty emanations in fifteen complementary pairs, each getting slightly less of the divine material and therefore being slightly weaker. The emanations are called Aeons (eternities) and are mostly named personifications in Greek of abstract ideas.

Words and concepts are common denominators and not – as we'd wish and believe to – precise representations of something that's there to be objectively apprehended. Did We do live through and with words though, and even if we realize their subjectivity and 5 relativity it is only just that we should pay the closest attention to them and try to use them knowingly – as we can reasonably acknowledge that the world at large does not adhere to Nietzsche’s insight - we do relate words to facts and to expressions of reality.
