Every
man is born bearing within him the image of his polar being.
As he grows, this image grows within him;
It takes form and is filled with life and colour.
Man is not conscious of it. Yet it is his ALTER EGO,
The Lady of his dreams, his Princess of the Vision.
In Quest of her he must eternally go.
In Her alone, he will find a perfect echo of Himself:
Of the most intimate, inexpressible movements of his soul, For in their
union, the limit between the I and the Thou is obliterated.
Since she is his Singular, his Legitimate Spouse.
And Silence will then be the depositary of the fullness of their Love.
To live
in the True, with all lies excluded, is the prerogative of the Cycle
of the Spirit: Light without shadow.
We speak
here about certain human beings who have attained or who are about to
attain the Second Birth. The text leaves no room for ambiguity:
Lie
not to one another: seeing that you have put off the old man with
his doings and have put on the new man, that is being renewed until
the knowledge after the image of God: where there cannot be Greek
and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave
and freeman; but Christ is all and in all.
This is
only addressed to those who are on the Way in their relations between
themselves.
He who
reaches Love would not know how to lie. But to triumph over lies requires
an esoteric culture which is inaccessible to ordinary man.
This highlights
the important problem of lying.
The struggle
against lying is long and drawn out. It is first of all a struggle against
ourselves, against our spontaneous tendencies, and against that mechanicalness
that makes us revert constantly to lying.
Useless
lies to others are far less harmful than lying to oneself - and easier
to master and heal. Lying to oneself sometimes takes on finely shaded
forms that necessitate total and sustained attention, together with
methodical and persistent efforts.
to eliminate
useless lying to others does not demand continual effort: one must simply
watch to see that it does not slip into conversation. At the moment
when it is on our lips a simple effort of attention is sufficient to
stop it. That is why in struggling for truth, it is recommended to begin
with this type of lie.
But, we
easily understand that lying to oneself, or the struggle against this
kind of lie, is not perceptible from the exterior.
When we
stop lying uselessly, this will also be unnoticed by those around us.
One can say that in practice, the struggle against these two categories
of lies does not alter man's relations with other men in any way, although
it is very effective for the person who undertakes it. We can therefore
begin it without delay, as long as we do it discreetly so as not to
draw attention to ourselves, and so do not provoke increasing pressure
from the General Law [of accident and mechanicalness which will try
to circumvent these efforts; i.e. The Predator's mind/Matrix.]
[...]
As for efforts at suppressing lies to oneself, they entail quite different
and important consequences. Such lies grow deep roots. In this domain,
paradoxical situations sometimes arise, some of them of such psychological
subtlety that it is difficult to draw them out of the shade.
Here we
must mention the question of marriages where one of the partners, having
realized that this union is an error, persists in trying to convince
him or herself of the contrary. If he is of an affectionate nature,
he will redouble his amiability towards his partner as if truly toward
his polar "other." The absurdity of the situation reaches
its limits if the other partner reacts by adopting a corresponding attitude
- without any sincere or spontaneous glow of tenderness.
The danger
from the esoteric point of view is that, by mere force of habit, such
a situation takes on for one of the partners, or even for both of them,
the value of true love. this kind of lying to oneself can go on for
dozens of years with people who are amiable and of good faith, and they
entail tragic disillusions in the end.
The man
who starts to struggle against lying to himself must be forewarned of
these difficulties, and of the possible collapse of some or all his
greatest values.
All should
know that true esoteric work only begins after the individual has passed
through a general bankruptcy and has had his gods helplessly thrown
to the ground.
We have
indicated the absolute necessity for anyone who aspires to esoteric
development to cure himself as soon as possible of this deep-rooted
habit of lying to himself.
We shall
now look at this problem from another angle: that of the objective results
which man obtains when he is able to stop lying.
This work
takes time, demands the courage to face disillusion, and needs self-confidence
and faith in the self. As the seeker advances, he feels a new sentiment.
He will
sometimes feel bitter regret as his beautiful dreams vanish, but at
the same time he will feel himself more and more liberated.
His growing
sincerity towards himself will establish an atmosphere of truth in his
inner life. The law proclaimed "you shall know the truth, and the
truth shall set you free" will apply to him in its fullness.
The word
"free" was deliberately chosen to contrast a state of slavery.
After
each operation of inner purification, painful though it may be, the
seeker will feel more and more fully a profound gratitude for being
freed from this absurd slavery.
Having
reached a certain stage in internal liberation, the individual will
understand the full value of the magical power expressed in the word
Freedom.
The acquisition
of Inner Freedom is the sine qua non condition of further success
in esoteric work.
This elimination
of lying to the self enables one to observe the work of the lower centers
in the self objectively. This observation is commenced from this "command
post" of impartial observation and judgment of the individual who
has overcome the lies to the self.
When our
interior world is thus purified by these rays of the "B",
when we have ceased to lie to ourselves, how then are we to act towards
others?
This problem
is far from easy.
It is
written: "the kingdom of heaven is forced, and it is the violent
men who hold it."
If we
remember that the kingdom of heaven is within, and NOT outside us, then
we begin to understand that some force or even violence must be employed
INTERNALLY to retake our own fortress.
This is
very often necessary to eliminate the roots of Illusion within us, the
mother of lies to ourselves.
Thus
we see that the test at the fourth step is decisive. Until lying
stops, man drags along the defects of his past: lying, weakness, self-pity,
inner compromise.
Generally,
it takes time, the opportunity and the possibility to rid himself of
his baggage before committing himself to the fourth step is met.
Many individuals, because of the weight of their past, waste time and
allow many opportunities which present themselves to go by.
But, on
the fourth step, the balance sheet must be drawn up and accounts settled.
Man, poor and naked, is accepted at the second Threshold, but
only on condition that he is consistent and pure.
The essential
is that he be consistent, meaning that he contains within himself true
Love, which can only be revealed by the cessation of lying to the self.
Everything
false within him will be burned by the flames of this blazing sword.
All of
these steps happen more or less together in many combinations. They
are distributed unequally according to different personalities, and
driven by the force of our Desire to be free.
In stepping
onto the Staircase, to approach and then cross the Second Threshold,
man adopts a new attitude towards himself: from this point on, he takes
his fate in his own hands.
During
later development, the Individuality becomes progressively integrated
with the higher cosmos.

Cassiopaeans:
Q: (L) Let me ask this one before the tape runs out and we take a break.
What is the "ultimate secret" being protected by the Consortium?
A: You are not in control of yourselves, you are an experiment. [...]
Q: (L) Yes. Okay. How "long", and I put long in quotes, because
we know, as you say, there is no time, but how long, as we measure it,
have the Grays been interacting with our race? The Grays, not the Lizards,
the Grays, the cybergenetic probes?
A: No.
Q: (L) What do you mean, "No"?
A: Time travelers, therefore, "Time is ongoing."
Q: (L) Okay, recently I read a couple of books Jan gave me, "Knight
in Shining Armor" and "Replay". Both of these books described
time travel.
A: No, not finished with answer. Do you understand the gravity of last
response?
Q: (L) They are time travelers, they can move forward and backward in
time, they can play games with our heads... (T) They can set up the
past to create a future they want. (D) They can organize things so that
they can create the energy that they need... (L) They can also make
things look good, make them feel good, make them seem good, they can
make you have an idea one minute, and then the next minute, create some
sort of situation that confirms that idea...
A: When you asked how long, of course it is totally unlimited, is it
not?
Q: (L) That's not good. If they were to move back through space time
and alter an event in our past, would that alteration in the past instantaneously
alter our present as well?
A: Has over and over and over.
Q: (D) So they do it over and over and over, constantly? (L) So, at
each...
A: You just are not yet aware, and have no idea of the ramifications!!!
Q: (L) We're getting a little glimmer! Yeah, I do, a little! (T) The
ramifications of being able to move in and out of time and manipulate
it the way you want (Jan/Laura) And the ramifications of what they're
doing to us; what they are doing to us and what they will do to us,
over and over. (Freddy) What did it say about over and over? (L) So,
in other words, our only real prayer in this whole damn situation is
to get out of this density level. That's what they're saying, that's
what it sounds like to me.
A: Close.
Q: (L) Because, otherwise, we're just literally, as in that book, stuck
in the replay over and over and over, and the Holocaust could happen
over and over, and we could just, you know... Genghis Khan, Attila the
Hun... over and over and over again. (T) We're stuck in a time loop;
they're putting us in a time loop. (J) Are we in a time loop?
A: Yes.
Q: (D) I have a question about... there was a... (PAUSE) Mankind has
found it necessary for some reason or other to appoint time for some
reason or other. The only reason I can see is to have a means of telling,
like in verbal or written communications...
A: Control mechanism.
Q: (T) Is there a way for us to break the control mechanism? Besides
moving to 4th density? (D) That was part...
A: Nope.
Q: (D) When 4th density beings communicate it's telepathic, right?
A: Yes.
Q: (D) Okay, since time doesn't exist, how do you communicate about
happenings?
A: Rephrase, please; clarify.
Q: (L) What she means to ask is, if you're communicating telepathically...
(D) On 4th density.. (L) And time doesn't exist, how do you communicate
about events as one happens now, as opposed to later and the next thing
happens, and the next thing happens... (J) How is it sequential?
A: Translate.
Q: (D) Translate? Okay, let me explain what I mean. I mean, we talk
about 1907 something happened...
A: That is how it is done.
Q: (T) Translate is how it is done. You translate the experience?
A: From 4 to 3. And vice versa.
Q: (L) So, in other words, it's almost like making movies. (J) Are linear
thought processes part of it? Is it being linear and non-linear?
A: Part of 3d illusion only.
Q: (L) So, in other words, if you're a 4th density being, everything
is more or less happening, excuse the term happening, everything is
simultaneous, and if you wish to discuss or communicate or have any
focus upon any particular aspect of this unified dimension, then what
you do is you kind of extract it out, project it into 3d...
A: Close.
Q: (L) ... like a movie.
A: But you will not understand fully until you get there.

Mouravieff:
The life of man is a film. It is certainly difficult for our Cartesian
minds to grasp this concept. Our three-dimensional minds are badly adapted
to ideas and facts which touch on the domain of the eternal.
Incomprehensible
as it may seem, our life is truly a film produced in accordance with
a script. This film goes on continuously, without ever stopping, in
such a way that, at the time of his death, man is born again. What seems
absurd is that he is born in the same place, at the same date where
he was born before, and of the same parents. So the film goes on again.
Each human being, then, is born with his own particular film. this represents
the field of action in which man is called to apply his conscious efforts.
The repetition
of the film is not reincarnation, although these two notions are often
confused. Exterior man, who lives in the system of the Future-Past cannot
embrace in a single moment the ensemble of his film, nor even the part
that contains his immediate future. To do so, he would need to enlarge
the slot of his Present.
It thus
happens to him that, faced with certain events, he will feel that he
has already seen or lived those events. Some see in such phenomena the
proof of so called reincarnation. In reality, phenomena of this sort
are the result of a casual and temporary surge of fine energies in the
organism: the slot of the individual Present then enlarges for a few
moment, and some significant facts of the immediate future slip into
the waking consciousness. In this way, the impression is created of
a return of another time. In a certain way this is true, although the
impression of having lived before is only caused by mechanical unfolding
of the film.
By reincarnation,
we must understand a phenomenon of a very different order. Although
the theoretical film revolves integrally on the plane of possibilities,
meaning in eternity, the film of the exterior man clings to the plane
of realization, that is, of Time, but only to the extent strictly necessary
to satisfy the ends of the Ray of Creation.
True reincarnation,
on the other hand, occurs entirely in time, and belongs integrally to
the domain of the Real, well understood as part of the broader frame
of Manifestation. The human personality is not a reality in the proper
sense of the word, but a possibility. It plays a role in the film to
which it is attached, from which it will not disappear until the moment
of the Second Birth. At that moment, it will cease to be a Personality.
Because of its indestructible union with the real "I", it
will be transfigured, and so it will become an Individuality. As long
as man lives in the wilderness, self-satisfied and immersed in lies
and illusions, the film will unfold with mechanical inflexibility, and
the Personality will remain entirely unchanged.
These
circumstances start to change the moment man crossed the first Threshold.
This passage can be compared to the conception of the future Individuality.
The Staircase symbolizes the period of gestation, and the crossing of
the second Threshold represents the second Birth, the birth of Individuality.
As man becomes more and more integrated with his "I", growing
his Individuality, he becomes progressively integrated with the Cosmos
and acquires "gifts" appropriate to his individual nature.
Simultaneously, he progressively participates in real, objective existence,
which finally characterizes his being.
This is
liberation from the bonds of the film.
It is
only at this point of evolution that true individual reincarnation becomes
possible.
True reincarnation
is not mechanical; it is done consciously, generally to accomplish a
mission.
Cassiopaeans:
Q: (LC) Well, if that's the case! I want to ask about past life relations
between us. I'm sure there is.
A: Be specific.
Q: (LC) Are there any specific past life connections between any of
the women in this room?
A: Who?
Q: (LC) Well, let's start with Laura. Do I have a past life connection
with Laura?
A: Before we answer that, we wish to hear from you what you perceive
a past life circumstance to be.
[..] How do you perceive the reincarnation process to be?
Q: (LC) I perceive it as you come back with people you choose to come
back with, and that you choose people that you are karmically connected
to. (I) I see it a little bit differently than that...
A: Aha! We have a variance!
Q: (I) I think that when we die and go to 5th density, that we make
pacts with people in each incarnation, so when you come back, it is
coming back to fulfill that pact. (LC) Yes, that is the way my line
of thinking is going. But, when they asked that question, I was thinking
that you have people you come back with because of closeness. Somebody
may be your mother in one life, and there is a love bond, and then there
are other people that you come back with because you have to resolve
something to let go of that person rather than to get closer.
A: This is partially correct. But, there is more to it than this. For
example, one can incarnate on various planes of existence, not just
the one you perceive currently. And, one may actually reincarnate on
more than one plane concurrently, if one is advanced enough to do this.
Q: (L) Are you suggesting that ...
A: Yes, we are!
Q: (L) I was thinking it, but they didn't let me finish. For the record,
I was thinking that we are all part of the same soul unit here.
A: To an extent, but you may not yet understand what exactly a "soul
unit" is in that sense. And of course, there is more than one sense
for this as well. The "trick" that 3rd density STS life forms will learn,
either prior to transition to 4th density, or at the exact juncture,
is to think in absolutely limitless terms. The first and most solid
step in this process is to not anticipate at all. This is most difficult
for you. We understand this, but this as also why we keep reiterating
this point. For example, imagine if one of your past lives is also a
future life? [...]
Q: (P) Now, I just want to say that I think that we have all of us here
traveled back in time to change the way things are now. We inserted
ourselves into this time period to wake up and see what is really happening.
This is 3rd density thinking, I know, but it is the only way I can describe
it. We looked back on the way things happened, the way the world is
now, and we have come back to change things. We have come from the future,
to wake up now, because we didn't wake up before. (C) Maybe that's our
"past life/future life" connection here? (P) Right, we all agreed to
insert ourselves in this time line.... (L) So, we ARE from the future...
(P) Because the world is going in this direction, and SOMETHING had
to be done. That's what I see. (I) Yes. We all decided to come back,
but there was a strong possibility that we would not be able to wake
up and link up. And that's why so many things happened to attempt to
keep us from getting together. (P) Not just that, things happen to keep
us from waking up period! We've all been bombarded with stuff all our
lives. (I) Yes, and when we started waking up, and realized that we
HAD to come together to "link" to DO whatever it is we are going to
do, there has to be all kinds of things to prevent it even! [Laughter]
(S) I would like to ask a question about synchronicity...
A: Wait a minute... someone said something a short while ago that is
surprisingly close to the truth. Now just a moment... reflect please.
Q: (L) P*** was saying that we have come back from the future and inserted
ourselves into this timeline...
A: Yes. That is close to being totally correct!
Q: (L) In terms of reincarnation, that we were talking about a few minutes
before that, we are possibly incarnations of ourselves incarnated at
different levels. This just happens to be one of the levels of reality
that we are occupying, but there are other selves at other levels thinking
and doing other level stuff, and these other levels are perceived by
us as the future...
A: Maybe for some of you, but let us not get ahead of ourselves.
Q: (P) The C's say that they are US in the future. So, we, being THEM
in the future, some of who they are in the future, have come back as
us, to do what we are doing, to undo what is happening on Earth...
A: Close, but more complex than that. It would be difficult for you
to completely understand at this point, but let us just say that you
are close.
Mouravieff:
It is important to grasp clearly the difference which exists between
the film, a mixture of possibilities, and reincarnation in time, which
belongs to the domain of the Real, and to understand the meaning of
this difference.
At the
time of the second Birth, that is to say, by crossing the Second Threshold,
man escapes his bondage to the film, and enters the domain of redemption.
He is then admitted into the sacred brotherhood of living Beings. These
beings are an unshakable force: those who are part of it are no longer
subject to illness or sorrow. Death loses its hold over them. They have
overcome the world.
In theory,
the film in which man is born and in which he lives can go on until
the end of the world, on condition that he is happy, satisfied with
himself, attributing his virtues to himself, and blaming others for
his mistakes and misfortunes. Properly speaking, this kind of existence
cannot be considered as human; it could be described as anthropoid.
This term is justified in the sense that exterior man, immersed in self-satisfaction,
represents the crowning achievement of millions of years of evolution
of the species from its animal ancestors, yet from the point of view
of esoteric evolution, he is a possibility which has not yet been realized.
If we
envisage the problem of esoteric evolution from the point of view of
the film and the different parts man can play in it, it is clear that
this kind of evolution is impossible as long as the film can always
be considered as turning in the same circle. People who perform in such
a film are those we have called anthropoids, puppets, the dead who,
in the words of Jesus, "believe themselves to be alive."
Esoteric
evolution starts when man, by his conscious efforts, proves capable
of breaking the circle and transforming it into an ascending spiral.
The spiral represents an intermediate state between the position where
the human Personality is found to be trapped in the film, which revolves
mechanically in a way hardly separated from the eternal plane, and that
of the perfect, free Individuality, who is able, if need arises, to
reincarnate consciously in Time.
This is
an intermediate state in this sense, that the film definitely departs
from the plane of the eternal, from the plane of possibilities. The
curve of life, which for exterior man does not in practice differ from
a circle, transforms itself into a spiral and does not end - as it did
previously - almost at its point of departure: the distance between
these two points now marks a definite progression in Time.
The film
in the form of a spiral belongs to human beings who climb the staircase.
Complete disengagement of the film is produced at the moment of crossing
the second threshold. If man is able to do that successfully during
a single life, so breaking the circle for the very first time, he does
not return to it. Such a case is very rare: it is the lot of the just.
Generally,
this liberation requires several lives; several revolutions of the spiral.
As a general rule, each revolution occurs in Time, and consequently
can appear to be a reincarnation. In reality, it is nothing but a return
to exterior life. A pseudo-reincarnation like this is neither conscious
nor personal: it is the actors in the film who return, and they do not
remember any previous experiences.
However,
a change is possible as soon as the conscious efforts of man increase
the effect of the Time factor by enlarging perception of the Present.
In a film which unfolds in a spiral in this way, the contents of the
play change; they change in two ways: first in each life, that is, during
each revolution, and also from spiral to spiral. The composition of
the cast, the circumstances, and the scenery all change. Two elements
however remain permanent: first, the general aim, to reach and cross
the second Threshold; then the absolute condition for crossing this
Threshold, that all the karmic debts which have been accumulated in
the present life, as well as during previous spirals, must be neutralized
and liquidated.
Before
the Second Threshold, every drama must be played out to its denouement.
The work is hard and difficult because man constantly makes mistakes.
The attentive
reader has already understood that following the spiral, or climbing
the Staircase, is reserved for human beings who have already absorbed
a certain quantity of "B" influences and who thus possess
a more or less developed magnetic center. This does not guarantee that
they will make no more errors.
It is
true that from the time man first mounts the Staircase he is watched,
especially if he makes sincere and considerable efforts. The Esoteric
Brotherhood offers him a helping hand. Certain meetings, a play of favorable
circumstances, are the forms taken by this help. This assistance does
not, however, free him of the need to work on himself and to go on making
conscious efforts. In addition, it must be said that often the proffered
help is not used, because man does not listen to the advice given, or
because he does not grasp the meaning of the favorable circumstances
and the possibilities of progress which open before him. He is still
more than half a creature of the domain of Illusion, he continues to
take frequent impulsive decisions, and often turns against his own avowed
aims.
It must
be understood that as long as a man has not attained and crossed the
Second Threshold, he will have to start all over again. He will restart
every spiral in the wilderness, he will once again have to discern the
Cosmic Solar influences, cross the First Threshold, and climb the Staircase
step by step. It is true that no conscious effort is ever lost, but
the experience acquired in one spiral only appears in the next in the
form of innate personal aptitudes, or vague recollections of people
in the cast.
We should
know that, at the end of a spiral (incarnation), a comparison is made
between the film as it was conceived at the time of birth and what it
has become at the time of death. The balance sheet between these two
states is drawn up, as in accounting, by listing assets and liabilities,
followed by a profit/loss statement. This will show the result of the
elapsed life objectively.
This balance
sheet furnishes the basic elements for composing the film at the start
of the following spiral.
If we
could avoid all errors and complications in this new experience, produced
as a result of free movements, esoteric evolution would then occur in
a harmonious rising curve.
Generally,
this is not the case. Man most often comes to this idea of evolution
after he has already complicated the film to which he belongs.
But true
evolution cannot occur except on the basis of the original film - after
all artificially added elements have been eliminated. The latter is
conditional on a return to the PURITY of the centers, especially the
emotional center which - at least at the start - is the sole receptacle
of Cosmic Solar influences.
Cassiopaeans:
Q: (L) Are instincts different from emotions?
A:Yes.
Q: (L) How can you tell the difference between instinctive knowledge
and emotional reactions?
A: Emotions involve wishful thinking, instincts are "gut feelings,"
psychic in nature, and are stronger. When it is wishful thinking, there
is always psychic instinct seeping through which you can access if you
use reason and examine your lessons of the past.
Q: (L) Is it also correct that emotion can be used to mislead, that
is emotions that are twisted and generated strictly from the flesh or
false programming?
A: Emotion that limits is an impediment to progress. Emotion is also
necessary to make progress in 3rd density. It is natural. When you begin
to separate limiting emotions based on assumptions from emotions that
open one to unlimited possibilities, that means you are preparing for
the next density.
Q: (L) What about Love?
A: What about it?
Q: (L) There are many teachings that are promulgated that Love is the
key, the answer. They say that illumination and knowledge and what-not
can all be achieved through love.
A: The problem is not the term "love," the problem is the
interpretation of the term. Those on third density have a tendency to
confuse the issue horribly. After all, they confuse many things as love.
When the actual definition of love as you know it is not correct either.
It is not necessarily a feeling that one has that can also be interpreted
as an emotion, but rather, as we have told you before, the essence of
light which is knowledge is love, and this has been corrupted when it
is said that love leads to illumination. Love is Light is Knowledge.
Love makes no sense when common definitions are used as they are in
your environment. To love you must know. And to know is to have light.
And to have light is to love. And to have knowledge is to love.
Mouravieff:
The heart must therefore be pure, and if not already pure, it must be
purified. This is the sine qua non condition of success.
All the
discussion of lying in all its aspects is given to emphasize the absolute
need for purifying the heart, and for beginning to re-educate the emotional
center in a positive direction. [Remember, the emotions are represented
by the horse pulling the coach.]
This necessity
explains the meaning of the words of Jesus: "Except you turn, and
become as little children, you shall in no wise enter into the kingdom
of heaven."
This refers
specifically to the emotional life. Many have interpreted this as a
restriction on the development of the intellect. This is a huge mistake.
Intelligence and intellect must be developed and stimulated. The admonition
to "become as little children" only points to the need for
purity of the centers, NOT the idea of keeping them in a primitive state.
Paul wrote:
Brothers, be not children in that which concerns judgment, be children
in what concerns malice, but as to judgment, be fully grown men."
***
It is
now time to turn to a possible short cut in esoteric work which can
rapidly take us to the second Threshold.
This is
a possibility offered to Polar beings, those couples described by the
ancient Tradition in the myth of the Androgyne.
On the
basis of the preceding analysis, the essential data for the film of
any ordinary person can be described as follows: as the hero of the
romance of his own life, the subject must necessarily be the star of
the film.
But he
can also play a minor role in the film of people who play a secondary
role in his own film. In this way, each film gets enmeshed with other
films, where the same people are found in totally different situations.
One must
also distinguish between two categories of actors.
The first
are really part of the cast. A definite role is assigned to them: they
are organically tied to the film.
The second
group only appear by accident in the film, drawn into the action by
the free movements of the hero. This complexity is further increased
because some of the actors who have genuine parts in the film play their
roles badly, while others play roles which are not their own. Situations
like this are widespread.
The human
Personality is an organism with multiple parts or facets, 987 to be
exact. In the ideal case, only realized by polar beings, and the only
effective one from the esoteric point of view, the 987 facets of man
and woman are strictly polar. These are the predestined husband and
wife whose union will create a true couple.
However,
the cast contains other people, who play roles organically tied to that
of the hero, and who are necessary to bring the film in its ensemble
to its natural end. these are friend souls, brother souls, sister souls,
collaborating souls, servant souls, etc. The Personalities of each of
them have a certain number of facts identical to those of the hero,
for actors of the same sex, or polar for actors of the opposite sex.
In the case of brothers and sisters, the number of identical or polar
facets can be as many as half or even more.
The lack
of discernment and of sincerity towards ourselves, the innate desire
to find a perfect resonance to the vibration of our soul, and the impatience
that follows, all multiplied by the action of the General Law [of accident],
induce us too often to contract unions which can only result in absurd
situations. Instead of resisting the mirage; instead of waiting and
seeking, we slip into imperfect unions, which are a source of suffering
both for the partners and their children. In addition, these unions
alter the meaning of the film in its ensemble, and so corrupt the personal
lives of all the actors in the drama. Lastly, the esoteric results foreseen
in the initial composition of the film are gravely compromised.
It is
as a result of considering on the matrimonial plane, or through lack
of consideration on the sexual plane, that most of our errors are committed,
including those which demand the heaviest payment.
Even beings
of good faith are not exempt from error.
To confuse
a brother or sister soul for husband or wife compounds very complicated
situations, especially from the esoteric point of view. The situation
is all the more confused when children are born from such unions.
Life then
takes on the character of a perpetual compromise with oneself. the moral
and physical health of "accidentally united couples" suffers:
with changes in the intellectual center due to cheating and lying; heart
disease if the emotional center is sensitive and still aspires to the
truth; also diseases of obscure origin, of which cancer is one that
attacks the body in its most fragile parts. In every case, the condition
necessarily leads to permanent loss of fine energies which, in its turn,
brings on accelerated aging and leads to premature death.
Difficult
as are these situations that arise out of our errors, they must not
prevent anyone who throws himself into esoteric work from finding the
courage in himself to look them in the face and to search for a satisfactory
outcome. If the Devil - the General Law - tries to lead us into new
errors to obstruct our esoteric evolution, the supporting hand of the
Lord is always stretched out to help us. Yet our minds, too rational
and too realistic, often stop us from sensing this help.
When a
situation has been entangled by our errors, the Gordian knot must NOT
be cut, it must be untied in such a way that the participants, both
tied by the same knot, feel only relief at the disappearance of a situation
which was simply a source of suffering for both.
If the
situation is resolved, the original meaning of the film and its normal
development can be found.
The ensemble
of people organically linked in one film forms a team. In the initial
conception of the film, this team must attain a predetermined aim as
a result of the way the participants play their roles in the play of
life. This esoteric aim is always different from the aims we follow
under the influences of the General Law [the Matrix]
The objective
for such a team always has an esoteric meaning in fact, though the Personalities
which compose it may be very different. they will share a deep need:
a desire to end lies and illusions once and for all, the escape the
domination of the [Predator's mind] and, in one form or another, to
reach that objective existence in which man finds his real "I"
and identifies himself with it.
Here we
must describe the principal law which underlies the formation of these
teams. On the material plane, the greatest reward goes to him who commands.
On the esoteric plane, the greatest reward goes to him who serves.
The confusion
between these two important master ideas - that of commanding and of
serving - sometimes appears dramatic. Even among Jesus' disciples, the
question of knowing who was greatest among them tormented them.
The more
evolved the team, the more important the task entrusted to it. History
provides examples of the work of teams in all fields. the role of women
in teams is particularly marked in crucial periods of the history of
peoples.
[...]Once
the First Threshold is crossed, esoteric work will begin to reveal
the true meaning of the film. Man must proceed with an impartial
analysis of its contents: the role that each of the actors plays in
it - and the value of this role - must be passed through a sieve.
Gradually,
as this stripping work progresses, the positive or negative character
of different roles emerges more and more clearly. After this, inappropriate
elements tend to disappear from the scene.
At the
end of this analysis, the film will contain only a reduced number of
actors. but all of them are organically bound together, and with the
hero, by the contents of the play, as it was conceived from the beginning
of these experiences... which are pursued by the real "I"
through centuries or even millennia. The play must then be played out
to its resolution or denouement.
The basic
task of man, once he has crossed the first Threshold, is to shelter
himself from the karmic influences which are the effects of errors committed
in his free movements, either in the present life or in the past. In
the past, workers used to go to some monastery or hermitage where they
were able to concentrate on introspective work. In the present, our
times require energetic and rapid methods.
Our last
question is to examine the method whereby the Staircase between the
two Thresholds can be climbed more quickly, while we remain and work
in the contemporary world.
This means
exists: it is to work as a couple. However, for this esoteric work to
be completed successfully by two people, it is essential that the two
beings - man and woman - are integrally polar.
Cassiopaeans:
Q: (L) Let me ask a question. Earlier they said something about being
on the threshold of an experience. And now they say something is going
to unfold in front of you. Are the two response "threshold"
and "unfold in front of you," connected?
A: Of course!!!
Q: (L) Okay, he is on the threshold of some kind of experience. Is there
some way that we might identify this experience? Is it going to be so
outstanding that you can't miss it? Or, is it going to be something
that you have to pay attention to or you might miss it?
A: What does "threshold" imply?
Q: (L) Well, a door. It's a door. Does this mean he is going to go through
a door, psychically, spiritually, physically? Going to someone's house?
A: It does not just imply a "door," but also one's positioning,
and a sense of inevitability.
Q: (L) Is there something I can do to help?
A: Have you not helped already?
Q: (L) But, I mean specifically in this "threshold" and "unfolding"
experience?
A: Yes! And, by the way, Arkadiusz, science is most spiritual indeed!
Q: (L) Well, considering certain other elements, I was just wondering
if our pathways are supposed to now be parallel or diverge... how they
relate from this point...
A: Seems to us that your pathways are intertwining!
Q: (L) The use of the word "intertwining" is curious. You
used that in regard to the relationship between EM and gravity. Is there
a parallel?
A: If you wish. [...]
Q: (L) One last question: you say "combine energies." Is there any reason
why this will facilitate the pursuit of answers?
A: Complementary souls.
Mouravieff:
In the "long path," by successive elimination based on long
and minute analysis of his film, and after new errors and new failures,
man may end by finding his legitimate spouse, a fully integral polar
being with whom to unite himself.
In the
"short path", man must begin by a conscious search for his
polar being. If found, they can work together on the film which - in
its origin - is common to them both.
A man
alone is incomplete. But just where he is weak, his polar being is strong.
together, they form an integral being: their union leads to the fusion
of their Personalities and a faster crystallization of their complete
subtle bodies, united into a common second Birth.
This is
the redemption of "original sin."
The system
of films is conceived in such a way that polar beings will necessarily
meet in life, in certain cases more than once. Only the confused ties
contracted in this life by each of them, as a result of their free movements,
combined with the karmic consequences of one or more previous experiences,
can divert the man or woman from the ONLY being with whom they could
from a Micro cosmos.
If there
were no karmic debt, everything would go wonderfully: two young people
would meet in the most favorable family and social atmosphere, and their
union would represent a true fairy-tale. But this is not reality.
Obeying
the principle of Imperfection, and moved by the action of the General
Law, the two predestined beings will commit errors. Deeply buried in
lies, they do not generally know how to appreciate the gift they are
given. Often, they do not even recognize each other.
If this
is the case, then an agonizing question is put: is there one or more
means to detect our polar being, and if so, what are these means?
To meet
that person, to do so without recognition, to let our polar being pass
by, is the worst mistake we could possibly make: because we would remain
in our factitious life, without light.
Must not
everything be sacrificed in favor of a union which is the only chance
of our life: the promise of return to paradise lost?
Nevertheless
we should beware of the last trap, one we can fall into just at the
moment when ineffable happiness seems to smile upon us.
We have
just said: all must be sacrifices; we have not said: all must be broken.
If, having
recognized one another, the two polar beings triumph over this last
ordeal or test, often the most painful, the new life, will open in front
of them, as they are then called to be One on earth and in heaven.
But let
us now return to the question of knowing how not to pass by after having
met our true alter ago, the pledge of happiness and salvation.
There
is a whole series of subjective and objective clues which assist us
in recognizing our polar being. The polarization is manifested on ALL
planes simultaneously: sexual, physical, mental and spiritual.
Two elements
must be taken into consideration: If it is correct to say that the predestined
man and woman are absolutely polar beings, this polarity is not simple
because, to a certain measure, both are physically, mentally and spiritually
hermaphroditic beings. That measure, that proportion, is at the same
time, sufficient and necessary. It is necessary to permit every being
coming into this world to carry within himself the image of the polar
being; this image is expressed, in each case, by means of the organ
of the opposite sex which exists in every being in a state of non-development.
It is, so to say, a part of the flesh and blood of his polar being that
each one of us carries within himself. this proportion is sufficient,
that is, it is the absolute minimum that will not jeopardize the complete
polarity, since the proportion of hermaphroditism in both polar beings
is strictly equivalent.
The second
element, which is subjective, is the distortion of our personality due
to conscious or unconscious deviations to which the initial film was
subject during the course of our existence. Distortions of this kind
make it more difficult to recognize the polar being, and can make us
less willing to exert ourselves to unite with that being.
[...]
It is the Androgyne who constitutes a true Micro cosmos, not the isolated
man or woman. The creation of man in the image and likeness of god was
in the form of the Androgyne: this description refers to the joint astral
body of two polar beings.
For man
as for woman, salvation in the bosom of the Absolute depends on their
reintegration in the Micro cosmos, as Paul indicates explicitly: "neither
is the woman without the man, nor the man without the woman in the Lord."
Man and
woman are in fact, incomplete beings who - taken apart - cannot reflect
in His fullness the image of God who is all in all.
it is
an axiom that every man and every woman has a polar being.
Nevertheless,
not all human beings feel the imperative need to be united to their
polar being. Beings who live enclosed in their Personality without thinking
deeply - which constitutes the great majority of humanity - enthusiastically
involve themselves in a life ruled by material influences, and do not
really feel the need for such a union. For them, the polar being is
on the same plane as everyone else. The Personality does not perceive
anything exceptional in him, and if by some chance an extraordinary
impression is experienced, it is instead felt as something abnormal
and embarrassing.
We can
speak of couples formed under the influence of the Law of Accident in
which the partners have opposite aspirations. At the base of such unions
we often find, beside a double error of judgment, the influences of
karmic debt, remote or recent. the most intelligent attitude to take
on such occasions is to unite the efforts of the couple to unravel the
situation to their mutual benefit. Left to itself, the situation will
only get worse.
Very special
care must be taken of the children of such a union, as they suffer within
the union. Everything must be done to remedy this. As a general rule,
we must not lose sight of the fact that, even if it is permitted to
the human being to offer himself in sacrifice, he has no right to accept
the sacrifice of others. To sacrifice yourself to a union that is formed
under the law of accident only teaches your children to do likewise
and hinders their possibilities of ever discovering their own polar
being.
Accelerated
evolution of the hero of a film via work on the self - i.e. purification
- brings him ever nearer to his polar being. At the same time, it automatically
removes from the film those personalities who are not organically integral.
After
the formation of the magnetic center within him, man starts to feel
the desire, the need, to be united to his polar being. This desire and
need will increase in proportion to the growth of the latter.
The concept
of the Androgyne has purely mythical or theoretical value for ordinary
man. But we now realize that a living aspiration to be re-integrated
in the Micro cosmos - the most direct way to the re-integration in the
Absolute - is the fruit of a high moral culture within the individual.
As mentioned,
esoteric evolution is conditioned at the start by bankruptcy, a moral
breakdown. To make progress after this, man must know exactly where
he stands. He must SEE himself.
Isaac
the Syrian said that he who has been able to see himself as he IS, is
better than he who has seen angels.
what we
call bankruptcy, the ancient traditions call "death." It is
death while still in a living body. One must first die, then be resurrected.
By progressively
taking his fate into his own hands, man at the same time takes responsibility
for ALL the partners in his film.
He must
restore the original meaning of his film, then push the development
of the latter in such a way that the "play" be properly played
out to its intended denouement.
The hero,
while working on himself, must apply himself to create new circumstances
around him, which will enhance the unfolding of the action towards its
originally intended conclusion.
His exterior
efforts must above all be directed towards the creation of these circumstances,
NOT towards seeking direct influence over people. Such direct influence
over people may seem opportune, but it is an error. Instead of unraveling
the situation, the influence creates karmic debts which complicate things
all the more. One must be very prudent and circumspect.
Yet new
circumstances must be created in a way that effectively helps those
interested to act in the direction desired.
Once again:
man should seek to serve, not to impose himself.
Patience,
perseverance and faith are qualities of great practical value in this
work.
For man
to recognize his polar being, he must be fully attentive on all planes
accessible to his consciousness. In fact, as a result of the distortion
of the film, the meeting always occurs in circumstances and in a manner
least expected, generally at a moment and in a form which resembles
nothing he could ever have imagined.
The rule
is precise: to recognize his polar being, man must know himself.
This is
obviously logical: to recognize his alter ego, man must first recognize
his own ego.
We are
thus confronted once again with the problem of the search for the way.
It is
true that the "I" of the body, like the "I" of the
personality, aspire to find the perfect response from another being.
This means that ONLY by identifying himself more and more with his REAL
"I" that a man magnetizes the union with his polar being.
It is
with a heart full of faith, sharpening within himself his highest faculties
of intuition and attention, his sense of critical analysis taken to
the highest point of alertness, that man will go in search of the being
without whom he is not real.
As it
was for the troubadour long ago, it is in Courtly Love that he can hope
to find and recognize "la Dame de ses Pensees."
The difficulty
we find in discovering our polar beings lies in the fact that we are
deformed, and constantly distort our film by free movements. We must
rectify our own distortion and renounce our impulsive movements. This
explains the prescription not to act under the influence of only one
center. It is the necessity to correct for our distortion, which, logically,
imposes on us the need, both in reception and transmission, for conscious
effort to make our emotional and intellectual centers work together.
When polar
beings meet, by what immediately perceptible signs can humans who are
still imperfect, still deformed by karmic debt, be certain in all objectivity
that they are not making a mistake?
Here are
some indispensable criteria that can have objective value in mutual
recognition.
From the
first meeting, in the presence of the polar being, both the "I"
of the Personality and the "I" of the body vibrate in a manner
which resembles nothing ever felt before.
The reason
for this is that these "I's" find themselves then in the presence
of their First Love which continues through the centuries. Without clearly
being conscious of it, the polar beings know each other; and this knowledge,
as ancient as they are themselves, is expressed by the voice of their
subconsciousness. This creates an atmosphere of absolute confidence
and SINCERITY from the moment they meet.
Q: (L) Last Sunday morning, I had a very strange experience similar
to what Al-Arabi describes as being in a 'state.' It was like being
taken up into a condition of near madness, Ark was there [as in a vision],
and then, when [the intensity of the emotion] became unbearable, I deliberately
pulled myself back and I was cold, shaking and rocking. I was shivering
like I would never get warm and I could FEEL my soul rocking in my body.
I would like to know exactly what this was?
A: Balancing of half-self.
Q: (L) What is a half-self?
A: Your starter version, relating to birth karmic imprint.
Q: (L) What in the world does THAT mean?
A: What you were assigned with at the onset of this incarnation. What
you started with. This must be periodically re-balanced at apex of significant
junctures.
Q: (L) The next thing that happened was that a few days later, I went
unconscious and Ark saw me come in the window [5 thousand miles away].
What happened?
A: Learning is fun!
Q: As you know, there is a flood in Poland, and Ark has to go back,
there is so much that must be done, but the government offices may be
closed, the court session may be delayed indefinitely, God knows what
is going to happen. What is the source of this dreadful disaster in
Poland?
A: Sopophoric screen alterations of the magnetic belt overlay.
Q: And what is causing these screen alterations of the magnetic belt
overlay?
A: Influences of Acquiim.
Q: What is Acquiim?
A: 4th density overseer.
Q: Does that mean sporofic screen alteration?
A: Soporific/phosphorous.
Q: What is the purpose of this screen alteration?
A: Deterrence of colinear wave reading consciousness units.
Q: What is a 'colinear wave reading consciousness unit?'
A: Suggest you "look in the mirror."
Q: Well! I don't know if I like being a colinear wave reading consciousness
unit!
A: Why not?
Q: Because I don't like feeling responsible for all these people who
are suffering in this disaster!
A: Responsible? Are you altering the weather?
Q: Well, no. But, if they will go to that extent to thwart us, is it
safe for him to go back?
A: If he takes precautions. [...]
Q: When you said 'colinear wave reading consciousness units,' and 'look
in the mirror,' was that a clue that Ark and I are mirror image consciousness
units?
A: Not exactly.
Q: Well, in a previous session, you said something about being a 'half
soul,' and my assumption was that he was a half-soul and I was a half-soul,
and together we made a whole soul. But, since that time, I have wondered
about this...
A: No one is unto themselves a half soul.
Q: Okay, what would give me a more clear understanding about 'half soul
balancing?'
A: The soul as read as a unit of completion. It is the communication
which completes the whole in each.
Q: What are the potentials of colinear wave reading consciousness units?
A: Specifics.
Q: Well, if an overseer in 4th density wishes to prevent unification
of same, there must be some reason; that there is something that the
4th density STS would not like to see happen. What is it?
A: Is that not self-evident?
Q: So, does that mean that it is important for us to be physically together
to do whatever this is?
A: Tis preferable.
***
This is
the Touchstone: for polar beings do NOT LIE to each other. They do not
need to lie, for inwardly both are one single being, from the depths
of which the real "I" issues his call and gives his assent.
