Happy New Year Everyone! Heres to an abundant and prosperous 2011

Its been awhile since I posted anything regarding another of my manifestations, InnerVision Crystals, but This seems worthy.

Much excitement about the new Talisman Series I am releasing this coming week. I envisioned the concept and master metal worker Theodore Mealy / Sacred Activation has brought that vision into manifestation in a very special & powerful line of Talismans.

Check it out!

It is within that the secrets of the universe are found. Through meditation, quieting of the earthly mind, can a higher consciousness be accessed. To know thyself is key. Through living in the heart, love, understanding can be found, wisdom can be downloaded from the aethers. This knowledge is available to all. It is given to each from the creator of the ALL. It is the source of the fire that burns inside, the light that guides through the darkness. The light is ONE with the father of all things. It s the source of all strength, truth, abundance. It is the key to salvation, to redemption, to true reality. It is the path to reunite the soul with source. This is the key to achieving mankind's destiny, the evolution of mind, the realization of why we are here, where we come from and who we are.

Blessings, In light & love

You can not awaken those who are not ready, who choose to believe in illusions out of fear and complacency. Ignorance is a choice. Illusions are comfortable to those who have never known anything else.

It reminds me of a quote from the first Matrix movie -
"The Matrix is a system. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it. "

The ALL, the ONE, The SOURCE of creation, pure consciousness, pure intelligence, at once, everywhere and in everything. Everything manifest is first by thought, in the mind of the ONE. Dont thou know? That you are ONE with ALL. Separation from the source is but illusion. Nothing within the entire creation of the ALL be separate from the ALL. Consciousness is the frequency which connects all within the all, it is that which is the source of shared mind from the creator. It is where all wisdom and knowledge is derived and given as gifts to conscious beings within the creation, which is the mind of the ALL.

The TRUTH is, that We have but ONE purpose. To create, to expand our consciousness, to live in love, in truth, in compassion within the heart, manifesting peace, manifest pure consciousness, experiencing true reality, free from illusion, free from corruption. This is no secret. This has been retold many times through parables and myths, through all the religions and spiritual teachings in all the lands, in the universe. Yet it is grasped by so few.

Humanity stands at a crossroads. Having separated itself from the source. Now to reap their sowing. Yet light from the source still lingers in the minds of the many. Awakening after a long slumber, to reunite, to reclaim, to become what you are meant to be.

All is mind. It is personal responsibility to self, to the ALL to consciously evolve and break free from the matrix that is the current reality. Like the phoenix reborn in the light of the Sun, the light of the ONE. Humanity has a choice. The current system is collapsing, breaking far from the ALL, yet change from within will manifest the new. It is. So Mote it be.

We are all ONE consciousness, connected through and through to the intelligent, divine, universal mind that is the source of all creation, what we humans call God.

Humanity must remember its divine origins, we must allow our hearts and minds to fill with pure love and compassion to break the matrix of illusions that has been accepted in its place.

We must awaken to our our purpose on this planet. There is no other way.

Blessings

Excerpt from "Initiation of the Soul"
http://www.awakened1.net/uploads/InitiationofthesoulPDF2010.pdf


It is after all, our choice to think for ourselves, to question reality and authority and to discover truth on our own instead of only basing our belief system not on our own experience, but on what we are told to believe, pertaining to all facets of life...

The time has come, to break through the illusions that is the matrix of so called reality and to become who we were always meant to be, or we can continue on the current path, and continue to wonder why we face the problems we do and continue to allow others to decide what is best for us, as individuals and as a whole. If the latter is chosen, then it should be no surprise as to why society continues to devolve into utter chaos, until ultimately the reset button is pushed.

It comes down to personal responsibility in all aspects of ones life, and countless hours of soul searching, of learning, going within ones mind through meditation as the key to unlocking the secrets of this life. The answers to happiness, or the pursuit of it. It is personal responsibility for ourselves that will save us as individuals, and as a collective whole. I remember a famous quote, through many years of reading every book I could get my hands on. “Faith without works is dead". This is very true. To merely believe in something without experience, without doing the work needed to accomplish the goal is ignorance at its best.

The mind control of the collective consciousness must be severed. We must look to no one but ourselves, to seek within ourselves for Truth, not to some guru, not to some church or person or cult or anything outside of ourselves, leading us on a path that is not truly our own. Belief systems must be gained from direct experience, from intuition. The connection to the divine is directly linked to our consciousness, we may study knowledge, the occult (Hidden) teachings, spiritual and religious paths, learn to gain wisdom through meditation, through intuition and discovery of self, higher self, awareness to realization of truth. Waiting for someone else to change the world, or seeking truth outside of our self, waiting for some savior or some date on some ancient calendar to come and save us from ourselves is in truth philosophic suicide, it is complacency and leads to depravity and despotism.

We are the ones we have been waiting for. It is as simple as that.

Veritas Vos Liberabit

We are beginning to see to see shifts occur at more increased rates across all the false constructed paradigms in this world. Continued propaganda to convince the semi waking masses that the matrix is the reality, divide and conquer tactics are at all time highs to attempt to hold control of the illusions accepted for so long by so many. Failed manufactured "wars" on every conceivable personal freedom and topic from Drugs, education, poverty, global warming, cancer, while its all really a war on consciousness above all else. Most do not yet grasp this concept as they have been asleep for so long. But the child is waking, rubbing the crust away from the withered eyes and the light is beginning to pierce the darkness cast for so long.

The countless other created wars for the mind to the physical wars, the offerings of mass death sacrifices by the evil men who hypnotize the masses and convince us they know best to lead humanity, wars across our world by those who claim to be seeking peace (UN / US / UK - New World Order) to the rouge puppet dictators and created terrorist threats we live our lives in fear of, boogymen in the night. Fighting for the good of all man kind they say, against enemies created for televised orgasmic violence to bewilder the mind and hijack the souls of those who watch and cheer for their team, unaware its all a spectacle, an elaborate game, sold for ratings and profits to the highest bidder.

The time is coming very soon, when truth will become even more evident, when denial and self loathing with no longer shield those who would rather live in illusion than face the burning light of truth, when the blurry line between the Socio-Economic-Religious-Political illusions and cults of personalities we have allowed to manipulate us will become very distinct. When Politicians and other so called leaders will no longer be able to sell the lie and people begin to see and think for themselves, to truly question what they have been sold, and why it tastes like shit.

The time is coming very soon, when the truth will not be able to be hidden behind words like conspiracy. When the propaganda of the day no longer works. When Common sense and personal responsibility once again become the norm that people base what they are told upon.

This illusion is shattering. There is a choice all will have to make. To continue believing in the illusion or to awaken and listen to that voice within that is screaming to get out, to wake up, to no longer just participate like there is no other choice.

The time is NOW. Consciousness beckons from the very pulse of creation for humanity to awaken to its potential and to realize its place. To be free from mental slavery, to be free from the chains of those who have found a way to manipulate the mind and convince that this is the way its always been, that this is life...

Knowledge is power. It is our responsibility to see beyond the left vs right, con vs lib mindset we have bought into and realize we are all in this together, that the puppet on the right and the puppet on the left who so cleverly ask us to believe them are one in the same. That we have all been played and now we have a choice to make.

Time to wake up...

Instead of Fighting or being against something learn what you stand for and perpetuate that consciousness. Instead of being "anti" Observe that energy and learn to BE what you stand for instead. Celebrate the Good instead of unconsciously feeding the lower frequencies. A Shift in thinking and awareness determines the reality, a new paradigm. - MDE

All the Legislation and Bills written for Congress / Senate are written by Multi National Elite Corporations, they are in place to benefit the few over the many, this is REGARDLESS of The "party" in power

Left vs Right + Liberal vs Conservative + Democrat vs Republican = DIVIDE & CONQUER (Illusion of Choice)

2 sides of the same coin BOUGHT AND PAID FOR

The Same Agenda is in Place by the Powers that Be, the Real owners of the game, The New World Order is here and waiting for implementation via a couple events already in the making

WAKE UP PEOPLE - DONT BE FOOLED ANYMORE

THINK FOR YOURSELF

The Truth will Set you Free - But first its going to piss you off

Without a Shift in Consciousness no revolution will change the evils we are faced with

Obama, Bush , Different Puppets, Same Agenda

"It is each human beings birthright to explore consciousness to its very limits, without this knowledge and awareness we can not fully experience and understand who we are, where we come from and where we are going... what is happening in the world around us, above all other things, is a war on consciousness." MDE

I AM

The Truth is... Consciousness is the catalyst of all that is, ALL things are fractals, reflections of the Source Mind / Awareness / Consciousness of what we humans call God, of the ONE, that we are all connected to and contain within the entirety of all Creation, the Light, the Love, the truth.

The Material World we find ourselves in, is a distraction, it is illusion, we are here for ONE reason. The rat race that has been created by those who understand and manipulate human consciousness for personal gain, for control is not truth, it is blasphemy, it is created, it is the Matrix for use of a better word.

The time is NOW... awaken, look deep within, no longer ignore, no longer deny...

We can sit by and lull ourselves to sleep with the countless distractions at our disposal or we can awaken and actively participate in the change now occurring... to realize what we are supposed to be, to do...

Veritas Vos Liberabit

"Deep Think"

it often makes me ponder how so many sleep walk so easily, so distracted, so unaware of the divine - Not their fault, we were all brought up this way, lost in the matrix so to speak... the words of God written on ancient scrolls, the words of man now distorted for personal gain, left ruins of what used to be... and all for control what once was so pure, the energy, the truths starring the world in the face, blurred only by illusions of black magicians and politicians, divided and conquered by labels the masses so easily accept, left, right, lib, con, falling victim to their own ignorance, arrogance, something so beautiful can be made the villain, Truth is rejected as the official lie is challenged screaming conspiracy theory in the face of facts, no place for that, amnesia so it seems, almost everyone has a touch of it, yet beckoning the call to awaken, to grasp reality by the hand and rise like the phoenix to reclaim their souls rightful place as ONE with all things... I AM... this 21st century digital dream is the land of make believe, lulling us all to sleep with pharmaceutical poison concoctions for everything to pollute the body , pop a pill, just 1 drink, take the edge off with things created yet the natural things used for centuries your told are forbidden, cradle to the grave if we choose to ignore the signs all around us, ignoring the inner voice, drown it out with digital transmissions, nothing but static broadcast over the airways to kill the boredom of slavery, freedom is a dream, a soothing melody we once hummed but now forgotten, its all so toxic, all so clean, yet only a fragment of what it all will be, Sun is rising, light is casting aside the shadows, not much longer now until the layer is peeled back and the mirror gets held up with no option to look away, face the truth, reclaim the power, personal responsibility the calling of the hour, mass consciousness, paradigm shift.... tick tock...tick tock...not much longer

It starts about 15 secs in...

Personal Freedom

Everything is ruled by universal laws that can not be broken by man. The Law of Cause and Effect is one of them, there is duality, polarity in all things, Good and Bad are matters of perception, there is karmic law and what is just and unjust of course, a matter of how one chooses to use their knowledge of such things.

Luck is a word for those who do not understand the operation of the laws and stumble into success by not understanding that they are actually operating within a law to certain degrees while focusing their intent to achieve a goal.

The force so to speak can be used for the betterment of all , for light , or for personal gain and manipulation. All things being relative of course. All things are Energy, Consciousness, even so called physical reality such as the desk I am typing at now are not actually solid but Atoms arranged into a very dense state, light and energy vibrating at a very slow rate, but none the less not actually Solid.

Shit doe not ever "just happen". NEVER. ALL things are subject to laws, all things are results of intent, Energy in motion, choices, some may not be apparent right away but ALL is connected. Praying to something outside of ourselves is giving this energy away, this surely is not what the master, the Nazarene taught, he taught God / Consciousness is WITHIN, the source of all things is contained within the Temple (Human Body) of the Living God (Consciousness) , praying on our knees to something outside of us is folly, this is what other men have taught through manipulation of the true teachings for personal gain and power over the lives of other men. Shit never happens, it is all result of personal choice, thought - manifested into physical reality, the result of our choices, no matter how small, all things react, all things have consequences, results.

True Love heals, it is above all else, it is what the darkness fears, but for many the Love as an emotion has been manipulated to be something else, something shared between people instead of the true source of power, the true source of what we humans personify into what we call God. True love does not have a dark side, it is when we humans allow our emotions and ego to rule that what we think is love has negative aspects. Love and Truth can only be known within, it is not something we find in the outer world. Truth can not be found in the outer world, only within. The closest truth to be found in the outer world is to understand the interconnectedness between ALL things, the Macro and Microcosm...

We can continue to rely only on stories, myths and legends and dogmas or we can again seek within ourselves, through meditation and through intuition, the very avenues that we have long forgotten as our direct links to something much bigger than any of us.

It is after all, our choice to think for ourselves, to question reality and authority, to approach things with the mind of the skeptic and to discover truth on our own instead of only basing our belief system not on our own experience, but on what we are told to believe, pertaining to all facets of life..

The time has come, to break through the illusions that is the matrix of so called reality and to become who we were always meant to be, or we can continue on the current path, and continue to wonder why we face the problems we do and continue to allow others to decide what is best for us, as individuals and as a whole.

The answers to happiness, or the pursuit of it. It is personal responsibility for ourselves that will save us as individuals, and as a collective whole.

"Faith without works is Dead". This is very true. To merely believe in something without experience, without doing the work needed to accomplish the goal is ignorance at its best. Remember .. IGNORANCE IS A CHOICE

The mind control that has distorted the collective consciousness must be severed. We must look to no one but ourselves, to seek within ourselves for Truth, not to some guru, not to some church or person or cult or anything outside of ourselves, leading us on a path that is not truly our own.

Waiting for someone else to change the world, or seeking truth outside of our self, waiting for some savior or some date on some ancient calendar to come and save us from ourselves is in truth philosophic suicide, it is complacency and leads to depravity and despotism.

We are the ones we have been waiting for to bring change to this world.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We have forgotten our divine origins and replaced them with books and texts full of hints and guidelines that one would think shouldn’t be too hard to follow.

Certain information was omitted or fabricated as well, this was not by accident. We separated ourselves, from our higher selves, from Nature, from God and created a veil of illusions. It became a fight for energy, then we began destroying everything in our way for some material purpose we could justify. Now we stand on the brink of this civilizations destiny or its Destruction.

Ancient cultures such as Atlantis, Lemuria, Egypt, Sumeria, The Mayans, all grew very advanced in their knowledge of the stars, of science and healing, spirituality and technology. There are now only ruins left as clues to where we came from and where we are headed. Stories, myths, legends....pieces to a puzzle.

It is easy to become confused, but once you truly wake up, there is no “off” switch, you can not just forget or dismiss it. It is completely evident what is happening to us, to our planet, to this universe. The NOW is all there is and ever will be. The past and future are illusions of linear time and space, memories, lessons..

Do we learn from the lessons or just keep hitting our heads? Pay attention to everything, read between the lines and really begin to think for yourself, because when you tap into the collective consciousness you will realize we are all of ONE universal mind. There is no place for indifference of any kind, for we are connected through all to all. I AM that I AM to be.

Think of it like this, all that is out there is ONE organism, and we are functioning parts, vital parts to that whole.

If the creative force of nature, of the universe that we call God is the beginning and the end, then God is EVERYTHING in-between. Everything that emanated from the original source are Extensions, reflections, creations, light and energy. Matter and Life. Each containing the original spirit within


This brings us back to the teachings of the Ancients. They created math, science and the calendar system, or it was taught to them.

Their systems all aligned with the heavens and cosmos to exact precision, without the use of our modern technology. They were completely aware of the interplay of energy & the seasons on themselves and their environment. They were clearly advanced in energy and healing work. They knew what each plant was for. They were aware of star systems and other cosmology that they could not have known about without our telescopes and satellites, proof that we are not the only advanced beings to ever visit this planet, there is proof carved within Egyptian temples, Ancient caves and texts, in records from lands long forgotten.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The creating of wars for profit by those in power and creating even more distractions to make themselves seem like they are needed is something that should not be allowed To keep people down as far as they can from ever knowing the truth about where we come from and where we are headed. This control must come to an end. Each one of us contains the entire truth, locked away, forgotten over centuries of conditioning. We keep coming back, over and over, more and more to see the same problems facing us all, in a world with enough abundance to go around.

We are all ONE. There are no differences, only Ego and Fear. Illusions in place to distract and conceal intentions that are meant to provide results to those in control.

World Leaders and Big Corporate sponsors of the “free” world in the 21st century, are attempting to enslave and keep ignorant the many.

There are few who dare to stand up and speak their minds, to speak truth, and when they do are ridiculed by those in the media and social architecture, by friends and family. In this day and age it is rare, where it is considered dangerous thinking to do so, and free speech is assaulted, while truth is made a mockery of.


The status quo is an imaginary and rhetorical standard set to keep people thinking they need what the advertisers and leaders are selling them. An entire planet is waking up, realizing the huge potential within us and seeing through the illusions of this 3D physical life. A life that is meant to experience, to create, to truly live in Harmony on this planet that sustains us

All the secrets of truth, of God, of life can be found by looking within. The keys are staring us all in the face, wondering why we do not recognize them.

It is the most pivotal point in human history and it is time to remember. It is time to take a stand on the real issues. It is time to demand equal human rights for all without exception to race, religion, creed or sex. It is time to start living by the words of the ascended masters, the true teachings of the illumined and enlightened ones and truly awaken to the laws of the universe and protect and respect this planet, each other and the universe. Because the universe gives what we ask of it.

Shift... are you in?

There is so much going on in the world we find ourselves in these days. Shifts are occurring on levels most are unaware of, at greater intensity than ever before. Many simply ignore or "rationalize" away what is happening or personally affecting them away or they are ignorant (not by fault of their own) to the natural order of things and the way energy and consciousness affect "reality". So many people are feeling unexplainable, or more than usual effects on an emotional level, experiencing major "shake ups" be it frustration, anger, relationships, etc.

Physics has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that everything is light and energy, that physical reality is merely dependent upon perception, that solid mass is not actually solid but varies by the make up of the atoms and vibrational frequency. That at its very core the reality we experience is dictated and manifested by consciousness, that is thought first and foremost.

Simply put you are what you think you are. Like attracts like. For a very simplistic example, if you are constantly thinking about what you do not want to experience and find it occurring over and over again then you have found your answer. Instead of giving energy so to speak to what you do not want one must retrain the mind - which is not the origin of thought - but the processor merely of the conscious brain - to focus on what is actually wanted.

Now this does not mean that your problems will magically disappear, for this is only a nudge towards truth, the mind for the most part on a mass scale must be reconditioned from the illusion it has been fooled into accepting as reality. The connection to the divine mind was lost long ago, in reality we are all connected, we are connected directly to the very source consciousness of all creation, of all things.

We are responsible for our emotions, we are responsible for our experiences, our reality. We can choose to view things as random happenings in an utterly chaotic world, or we can open our minds eye, free our minds and realize the interconnectedness and our ability to experience peace, joy, the truly spiritual and finding TRUTH instead of passively taking part in life...and having our decisions molded and guided for us, seeing the problems of the world as random, blame others for their problems, or write it off as "just the way it is" and missing out on the beauty hidden behind the clouds...

Simply choose Love over Fear in every instance.

There are no coincidences, not even the illusion of coincidence

It is now that the new consciousness paradigm must emerge, even in the face of adversity and opposition, against the tides, forces and energy that seek to see true change and awareness prevented from coming to fruition. The time is NOW...

Don't be fooled by those who control the current illusion, and those within the system claiming to be the ones to lead us all... become the change, become truth, become love for the highest good of all

The I AM presence within each beckons the call to awaken, to join as ONE with all that is

Any change in this world must first come from within each person, be it peace, love, truth, liberty, "change"... these things must be manifested and cultivated in ourselves before we can see them on the larger scale in this world.

Until we each learn tolerance and acceptance of others and take personal responsibility for our own actions, thoughts and so forth we can not expect to see any real change take place, only "revolutions" - Going in Circles, again and again, never really changing anything - just dizziness, repeating the same things over and over trying to force beliefs, dogmas and personal opinions (illusions) and so forth on others while we are blinded by divide and conquer tactics, puppet politicians playing to the emotions of unsuspecting people, subliminal mind control used to subdue and confuse the mind, walking around half asleep cheering for your "side" , your "team" thinking you are awake to truth...

It is the Matrix, system upon system, program upon program reliant on one another to keep the illusion alive.... I AM a virus in that system, consciously aware of the choices I make and how they impact reality.... Wake up.

M.E.

MIND

The universe is mental, it is mind, it is plastic substance that when understood on a certain level of consciousness / awareness can be molded to manifest to certain degrees. When we are in accordance with Universal / Divine Law we can BE and co create what we need according to law.

Many will say this is not so, and so they will reject this and label it in any way they can to disregard what they do not understand. But this does not make it so.

It reminds me of an old quote - whether you think you can or you think you can not, you are right ...

To achieve success in any area of life, be it personal, spiritual or business one must approach the task with single purpose of mind, hitch the idea or goal to a star and never waiver. Once the mind is made up to do something, it must be followed through with, quitting or failing is not an option. It is better to never attempt an undertaking than to wishfully and ignorantly attempt and then to simply quit because something appears too hard or complicated, this retards progress not only on the level attempted but on all things.

Many fail because they allow doubt, either of self or from others to cloud their vision. Naysayers are many, to weak minded to ever attempt risking it all to do something outside of the norm, the status quo. Many defeat themselves when they taste failure or set backs and instead of bearing down and moving forward they become stagnant and concede.

It is a working and experience proven understanding of consciousness, Hermetics / Hermeticism so to speak, the laws that all things follow that will allow the person seeking whatever they may seek, to obtain and manifest the thought or desire into reality, into creation.

All things are ruled by these laws, every cause has its effect and every effect its cause, sowing and reaping, etc...

Now Many will deny this, they will ignore through willful ignorance, they will reject areas of this thought by their religious or spiritual bias and dogma based on what they are told and not direct experience and so on. There are a million excuses, a million reasons the skeptics and naysayers will point to, but in doing so have already defeated themselves from ever proving themselves wrong.

We are here to create, to learn, to grow, to imagine and to become. We are not merely here to be slaves to those who have figured out and understand consciousness and how to manipulate it for profit and personal gain. We are here to awaken our inner most faculties, to express our creativity to its fullest potential and to go beyond what we think is possible. We are not victims of mere circumstance or environment, as these things can be changed, first by thought, then by action.

We have the ability to become whatever we put our minds to when we follow the laws and understand them. When we seek to benefit not only ourselves, but everyone who we come into contact with we tap a bottomless source of abundance, gratefulness and gratitude. I know these things first hand. Because I AM.

Once awakened to how the illusion / or the reality works, via consciousness, it is then that we must begin to operate by the laws that govern all things. We can focus on the negative, the corrupt, the lies, and fight to change the injustices we feel or we can focus on the positive, take personal responsibility for our lives and choose to hold & manifest the mental image of abundance, love, truth, etc.

This does not mean we simply ignore the bad, on the contrary, it means we become pro active in creating the reality, the abundance, the life we choose to live.

The I AM within is that which brings forth all things into the outer world. If we are to doubt, to fear, to live emotionally manipulated then we must not be surprised when things do not go the way we think they should. Within is the source of all power, all truth, all that is.

To focus on those who seek to distract us, by fear, by emotional manipulation, by lies and deceit is to give away your personal power. STOP IT.

Hermetics

1. The Principle of Mentalism
The All is mind; the Universe is mental
This Principle embodies the truth that 'All is Mind.'
It explains that The All (which is the Substantial Reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of 'The Material Universe'; the 'Phenomena of Life', 'Matter', 'Energy', and, in short, all that is apparent to our material senses) is spirit which in itself is unknowable and undefinable, but which may be considered and thought of as an universal, infinite, living mind.

It also explains that all the phenomenal world or universe is simply a Mental Creation of The All, subject to the Laws of Created Things, and that the universe, as a whole, and in its parts or units, has its existence in the Mind of The All, in which Mind we 'live and move and have our being.'

This Principle, by establishing the Mental Nature of the Universe, easily explains all of the varied mental and psychic phenomena that occupy such a large portion of the public attention, and which, without such explanation, are non-understandable and defy scientific treatment.


2. The Principle of Correspondence
As Above, So Below, As Below, So Above
This Principle embodies the truth that there is always a Correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of Being and Life. The old Hermetic axiom ran in these words: 'As above, so below, as below, so above.' And the grasping of this Principle gives one the means of solving many a dark paradox, and hidden secret of Nature.

There are planes beyond our knowing, but when we apply the Principle of Correspondence to them we are able to understand much that would otherwise be unknowable to us. This Principle is of universal application and manifestation, on the various planes of the material, mental, and spiritual universe - it is an Universal Law.

The ancient Hermetists considered this Principle as one of the most important mental instruments by which man was able to pry aside the obstacles which hid from view the Unknown. Its use even tore aside the Veil of Isis to the extent that a glimpse of the face of the goddess might be caught. Just as a knowledge of the Principles of Geometry enables man to measure distant suns and their movements, while seated in his observatory, so a knowledge of the Principle of Correspondence enables Man to reason intelligently from the Known to the Unknown. Studying the monad, he understands the archangel.


3. The Principle of Vibration
Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates
This Principle embodies the truth that 'everything is in motion'; 'everything vibrates'; 'nothing is at rest'; facts which Modern Science endorses, and which each new scientific discovery tends to verify. And yet this Hermetic Principle was enunciated thousands of years ago, by the Masters of Ancient Egypt. This Principle explains that the differences between different manifestations of Matter, Energy, Mind, and even Spirit, result largely from varying rates of Vibration.

From The All, which is Pure Spirit, down to the grossest form of Matter, all is in vibration - the higher the vibration, the higher the position in the scale. The vibration of Spirit is at such an infinite rate of intensity and rapidity that it is practically at rest - just as a rapidly moving wheel seems to be motionless. And at the other end of the scale, there are gross forms of matter whose vibrations are so low as to seem at rest. Between these poles, there are millions upon millions of varying degrees of vibration. From corpuscle and electron, atom and molecule, to worlds and universes, everything is in vibratory motion.
This is also true on the planes of energy and force (which are but varying degrees of vibration); and also on the mental planes (whose states depend upon vibrations); and even on to the spiritual planes.


4. The Principle of Polarity
Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.
This Principle embodies the truth that everything is dual, everything has two poles, everything has its pair of opposites, all of which were old Hermetic axioms.

It explains the old paradoxes, that have perplexed so many, which have been stated as follows: 'Thesis and antithesis are identical in nature, but different in degree'; 'opposites are the same, differing only in degree'; 'the pairs of opposites may be reconciled'; 'extremes meet'; 'everything is and isn't, at the same time'; 'all truths are but half-truths'; 'every truth is half-false'; 'there are two sides to everything,' etc., etc., etc.

It explains that in everything there are two poles, or opposite aspects, and that 'opposites' are really only the two extremes of the same thing, with many varying degrees between them. To illustrate: Heat and Cold, although 'opposites,' are really the same thing, the differences consisting merely of degrees of the same thing. Look at your thermometer and see if you can discover where 'heat' terminates and 'cold' begins! There is no such thing as 'absolute heat' or 'absolute cold' - the two terms 'heat' and 'cold' simply indicate varying degrees of the same thing, and that 'same thing' which manifests as 'heat' and 'cold' is merely a form, variety, and rate of Vibration. So 'heat' and 'cold' are simply the 'two poles' of that which we call 'Heat' - and the phenomena attendant thereupon are manifestations of the Principle of Polarity.

The same Principle manifests in the case of 'Light and Darkness,' which are the same thing, the difference consisting of varying degrees between the two poles of the phenomena. Where does 'darkness' leave off, and 'light' begin? What is the difference between 'Large and Small'? Between 'Hard and Soft'? Between 'Black and White'? Between 'Sharp and Dull'? Between 'Noise and Quiet'? Between 'High and Low'? Between 'Positive and Negative'?

The Principle of Polarity explains these paradoxes, and no other Principle can supersede it. The same Principle operates on the Mental Plane. Let us take a radical and extreme example - that of 'Love and Hate,' two mental states apparently totally different. And yet there are degrees of Hate and degrees of Love, and a middle point in which we use the terms 'Like or Dislike,' which shade into each other so gradually that sometimes we are at a loss to know whether we 'like' or 'dislike' or 'neither.' And all are simply degrees of the same thing, as you will see if you will but think a moment.

And, more than this (and considered of more importance by the Hermetists), it is possible to change the vibrations of Hate to the vibrations of Love, in one's own mind, and in the minds of others. Many of you, who read these lines, have had personal experiences of the involuntary rapid transition from Love to Hate, and the reverse, in your own case and that of others. And you will therefore realize the possibility of this being accomplished by the use of the Will, by means of the Hermetic formulas. 'Good and Evil' are but the poles of the same thing, and the Hermetist understands the art of transmuting Evil into Good, by means of an application of the Principle of Polarity.

In short, the 'Art of Polarization' becomes a phase of 'Mental Alchemy' known and practiced by the ancient and modern Hermetic Masters. An understanding of the Principle will enable one to change his own Polarity, as well as that of others, if he will devote the time and study necessary to master the art.


5. The Principle of Rythem
Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates
This Principle embodies the truth that in everything there is manifested a measured motion, to and fro; a flow and inflow; a swing backward and forward; a pendulum-like movement; a tide-like ebb and flow; a high-tide and low-tide; between the two poles which exist in accordance with the Principle of Polarity described a moment ago.

There is always an action and a reaction; an advance and a retreat; a rising and a sinking. This is in the affairs of the Universe, suns, worlds, men, animals, mind, energy, and matter. This law is manifest in the creation and destruction of worlds; in the rise and fall of nations; in the life of all things; and finally in the mental states of Man (and it is with this latter that the Hermetists find the understanding of the Principle most important).

The Hermetists have grasped this Principle, finding its universal application, and have also discovered certain means to overcome its effects in themselves by the use of the appropriate formulas and methods. They apply the Mental Law of Neutralization. They cannot annul the Principle, or cause it to cease its operation, but they have learned how to escape its effects upon themselves to a certain degree depending upon the Mastery of the Principle. They have learned how to use it, instead of being used by it.

In this and similar methods, consist the Art of the Hermetists. The Master of Hermetics polarizes himself at the point at which he desires to rest, and then neutralizes the Rhythmic swing of the pendulum which would tend to carry him to the other pole.
All individuals who have attained any degree of Self-Mastery do this to a certain degree, more or less unconsciously, but the Master does this consciously, and by the use of his Will, and attains a degree of Poise and Mental Firmness almost impossible of belief on the part of the masses who are swung backward and forward like a pendulum.
This Principle and that of Polarity have been closely studied by the Hermetists, and the methods of counteracting, neutralizing, and using them form an important part of the Hermetic Mental Alchemy.


6. The Principle of Cause and Effect
Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause; everything happens according to Law; Chance is but a name for Law not recognized; there are many planes of causation, but nothing escapes the Law.
This Principle embodies the fact that there is a Cause for every Effect; an Effect from every Cause. It explains that: 'Everything Happens according to Law'; that nothing ever 'merely happens'; that there is no such thing as Chance; that while there are various planes of Cause and Effect, the higher dominating the lower planes, still nothing ever entirely escapes the Law.

The Hermetists understand the art and methods of rising above the ordinary plane of Cause and Effect, to a certain degree, and by mentally rising to a higher plane they become Causers instead of Effects. The masses of people are carried along, obedient to environment; the wills and desires of others stronger than themselves; heredity; suggestion; and other outward causes moving them about like pawns on the Chessboard of Life.

But the Masters, rising to the plane above, dominate their moods, characters, qualities, and powers, as well as the environment surrounding them, and become Movers instead of pawns. They help to play the game of life, instead of being played and moved about by other wills and environment. They use the Principle instead of being its tools. The Masters obey the Causation of the higher planes, but they help to rule on their own plane. In this statement there is condensed a wealth of Hermetic knowledge - let him read who can.


7. The Principle of Gender
Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on all planes.
This Principle embodies the truth that there is gender manifested in everything - the Masculine and Feminine Principles ever at work. This is true not only of the Physical Plane, but of the Mental and even the Spiritual Planes.

On the Physical Plane, the Principle manifests as 'sex', on the higher planes it takes higher forms, but the Principle is ever the same. No creation, physical, mental or spiritual, is possible without this Principle. An understanding of its laws will throw light on many a subject that has perplexed the minds of men. The Principle of Gender works ever in the direction of generation, regeneration, and creation. Everything, and every person, contains the two Elements or Principles, or this great Principle, within it, him or her. Every Male thing has the Female Element also; every Female contains also the Male Principle.

If you would understand the philosophy of Mental and Spiritual Creation, Generation, and Re-generation, you must understand and study this Hermetic Principle. It contains the solution of many mysteries of Life. We caution you that this Principle has no reference to the many base, pernicious and degrading lustful theories, teachings and practices, which are taught under fanciful titles, and which are a prostitution of the great natural principle of Gender. Such base revivals of the ancient infamous forms of Phallicism tend to ruin mind, body and soul, and the Hermetic Philosophy has ever sounded the warning note against these degraded teachings which tend toward lust, licentiousness, and perversion of Nature's principles. If you seek such teachings, you must go elsewhere for them - Hermeticism contains nothing for you along these lines. To the pure, all things are pure; to the base, all things are base.

After a 2 hour conversation with a friend in Vegas on Hermetics, Consciousness, Politics and Business it is refreshing to talk to like minded people who GET IT.

We can bitch and moan about how corrupt the world is, and so forth but to truly change it takes innovation, thought, not "outside the box" but completely shattering the box. This matrix we find ourselves in is just that and we can choose to be slaves or to think for ourselves. We can choose to take control 110% of our destiny or let it be decided for us.

There is no "saving" or "changing" the current toxic corrupt system. It is beyond that point, those who refuse to see the coming collapse, or better yet, the Paradigm Shift remain willfully ignorant, choose to deny the signs all around them. But as long as we must play by the rules of the current illusion then play we must... and play by the rules of integrity, honesty and innovation we will, laying waste to greed and so forth. Cause and effect, Karma, Sow and Reap, whatever you want to call it...

Here is the opening from my short book / treatsie on the topics above.. from earlier in 2009- by far the best piece I have put up to date

Veritas Vos Liberabit
http://www.awakened1.net/veritas_vos_liberabit.html

I consciously choose to think for myself, to practice personal responsibility, to control my own destiny instead of having it decided for me. I AM the force behind my own life, behind my decisions. I choose to shatter the status quo, to create my own reality, to respect my fellow human beings, to become who I AM meant to be.

I AM not a slave, I AM free, ONE. I choose beauty, compassion, love, truth, Liberty above all else. I choose to live my life by true virtues and to use my intuition and common sense. I choose to rise above the land of make believe, to not be just one of the Herd. I choose to dream, to be, to live unbound by the chains that want to keep me confined and conformed to illusions. I simply AM and will always be, pure thought, creativity...

Where do we go from here?


It pains me to say it, but the "Patriot" or Liberty Movement in this country is not making much progress. This is not to say that many millions have not woken up, or partially awakened the last 2 years, but the mainstream branches of the so called movement, i.e. The Tea Party (of which I was a part of early on) and the 9/12 project and others are completely controlled, owned, hijacked...

Early on before the days of protests and events began you could see it happening, taking form. Glenn Beck shed a few tears over on Fox news, Newt and others in the GOP and on the "Right" began interjecting themselves into the movement, claiming the spot light and manipulating the emotions and anger toward Government, Corruption and Taxation for personal gain, while they rallied millions of Republicans, Conservatives and some on the fence into a new movement, all the while acting like it was Obama himself who was responsible for the problems in this country, using the left vs right (divide and conquer) tactics to new levels of effectiveness. While those on the left spun and mocked it. Playing the usual hand.

Those of us who have been doing this for years, no matter who is Puppet in Chief (R or D) know what I am talking about.

Meanwhile the so called movements on the left began to disappear when Bush left office, the Anti War movement suddenly, for the majority became silent. Those against the Patriot Act and other corrupt practices began to fall in line with the status quo since the new Puppet in town was in charge, even though he is continuing and even expanding the programs his voters were so against under the last Puppet... OH The Irony

There is no need to go in depth on this all, since those who truly are awakened fully grasp what is happening.

Those who are half awake had better learn to see through the illusions keeping them from understanding what is truly being done. Stop blaming the Puppet tasked with be the public face like he actually does anything of importance. He is merely a figure head, doing exactly has he is told by those who run the show.

And for those who are still living fully in the land of make believe, those who still are caught up in the left vs right illusion of choice, believing the Government, Bankers, "Experts" and Main stream Media moguls are telling them the truth, well there isnt much to say to you...

By now you either get it, or you dont. And if you are not pissed off, you are not paying attention or thinking for yourself.

So where do we go from here...?

Prepare for the coming storm, and do it fast. Food, water, ammo, get your house in order, physically, mentally, spiritually.

20 years from now NO ONE will be able to say they didnt see it coming
