Laura here:
Continuing with Gurdjieff's remarks.
Let me recap a few main points:
"If humanity does not evolve it means that the evolution of organic
life will stop and this in its turn will cause the growth of the ray
of creation to stop. At the same time if humanity ceases to evolve it
becomes useless from the point of view of the aims for which it was
created and as such it may be destroyed. In this way the cessation of
evolution may mean the destruction of humanity. [...]
"The process of evolution, of that evolution which is possible for
humanity as a whole, is completely analogous, to the process of
evolution possible for the individual man. And it begins with the same
thing, namely, a certain group of cells gradually becomes conscious;
then it attracts to itself other cells, subordinates others, and
gradually makes the whole organism serve its aims and not merely eat,
drink, and sleep.
"This is evolution and there can be no other kind of evolution.
"In humanity as in individual man everything begins with the formation
of a conscious nucleus.
"All the mechanical forces of life fight against the formation of this
conscious nucleus in humanity, in just the same way as all mechanical
habits, tastes and weaknesses fight against conscious self-
remembering in man." [...]
"Everything I have said till now I have said about the whole of
humanity. But as I pointed out before, the evolution of humanity can
proceed only through the evolution of a certain group, which, in its
turn, will influence and lead the rest of humanity.
"Are we able to say that such a group exists?
"Perhaps we can on the basis of certain signs, but in any event we
have to acknowledge that it is a very small group, quite insufficient,
at any rate, to subjugate the rest of humanity. Or, looking at it from
another point of view, we can say that humanity is in such a state
that it is unable to accept the guidance of a conscious group."
"Imagine that there are two or three people who are awake in the midst
of a multitude of sleeping people. They will certainly know each
other. But those who are asleep cannot know them.
"How many are they? We do not know and we cannot know until we become
like them. [...]
"But two hundred conscious people, if they existed and if they found
it necessary and legitimate, could change the whole of life on the
earth. [...]
"But either there are not enough of them, or they do not want to, or
perhaps the time has not yet come, or perhaps other people are
sleeping too soundly."
******************
Gurdjieff has mentioned the possibility of a group of individuals
positively affecting the fate of the earth. He has also mentioned the
period of the "crossroads." It seems that this "crossroads" is what is
ahead of us, and what we are referring to as "The Wave." We think of
it as a macrocosmic "wave collapse" or cosmic discontinuity at a sort
of boundary of our reality.
Gurdjieff talked about the possibility of a group of conscious
individuals already existing and the possibility that their numbers
were too small, or that they did not choose to act, or perhaps could
not act because humanity was too "asleep."
Those of you who have read the alchemical text "The Conference of the
Birds," know that this is about a group that goes in search of the
"answers" symbolized by the hidden masters, the King of the world. In
the end, they find that THEY are the "hidden masters," and that it is
through their search, through their struggles, that they have come to
be what they were searching for.
It may be exactly the same with us and "Us in the future."
There may be NO HELP. In fact, the C's have stated this quite
clearly. That "You will do what you will do," and that the state of
things depends on "program re-writers, i.e. you/us in the future."
So this is the thing we must consider very carefully. IF we are "all
we've got," what does that mean and what kind of response-ability does
it imply for each and every one of us - and I mean this whole group
and any others that may join it in future, and excluding any of those
that may leave it because being asked to be response-able is asking
too much. (We have certainly had a number of those types who come and
can't "take the heat" of the crucible. They are unable to be
"response-able" to others because, as far as they are concerned,
others are only "objects out there," and they - alone - are the center
of the universe and all else must conform to their "reality creation".)
Well, Gurdjieff talked about different types of esoteric groups in
some detail as follows.
**********
"We have approached the problems of esotericism.
"It was pointed out before when we spoke about the history of humanity
that the life of humanity to which we belong is governed by forces
proceeding from two different sources: first, planetary influences
which act entirely mechanically and are received by the human masses
as well as by individual people quite involuntarily and unconsciously;
and then, influences proceeding from inner circles of humanity whose
existence and significance the vast majority of people do not suspect
any more than they suspect planetary influences.
"The humanity to which we belong, namely, the whole of historic and
prehistoric humanity known to science and civilization, in reality
constitutes only the outer circle of humanity, within which there are
several other circles.
"So that we can imagine the whole of humanity, known as well as
unknown to us, as consisting so to speak of several concentric circles.
"The inner circle is called the 'esoteric'; this circle consists of
people who have attained the highest development possible for man,
each one of whom possesses individuality in the fullest degree, that
is to say, an indivisible 'I,' all forms of consciousness possible for
man, full control over these states of consciousness, the whole of
knowledge possible for man, and a free and independent will.
"They cannot perform actions opposed to their understanding or have an
understanding which is not expressed by actions.
[Read the above over again. In fact, read it several times and really
absorb the meaning of it.]
"At the same time there can be no discords among them, no differences
of understanding. Therefore their activity is entirely co-ordinated
and leads to one common aim without any kind of compulsion because it
is based upon a common and identical understanding.
[Colinearity defined exactly. It has nothing to do with subsumation
or 'group think. It has everything to do with individuals "each one
of whom possesses individuality in the fullest degree, that is to say,
an indivisible 'I,' all forms of consciousness possible for man, full
control over these states of consciousness, the whole of knowledge
possible for man, and a free and independent will" but NO DIFFERENCE
IN UNDERSTANDING. This is the KEY point. Again and again we find
those who come to cass, to casschat, and even here as "guests" who do
NOT have the same understanding, who are NOT colinear and who are
unable to be "response-able" in our presence. They then go away from
us and begin to accuse us of many things that because of the fact that
they were simply not colinear. Gurdjieff comes to this further on. ]
"The next circle is called the 'mesoteric,' that is to say, the
middle. People who belong to this circle possess all the qualities
possessed by the members of the esoteric circle with the sole
difference that their knowledge is of a more theoretical character.'
"This refers, of course, to knowledge of a cosmic character. They know
and understand many things which have not yet found expression in
their actions.
[Read this last remark again and again to absorb the full import of
it. Here we see the lack of ability to DO.]
"They know more than they do.
[Read this last remark again and again to absorb the full import of it.]
"But their understanding is precisely as exact as, and therefore
precisely identical with, the understanding of the people of the
esoteric circle.
"Between them there can be no discord, there can be no
misunderstanding. One understands in the way they all understand, and
all understand in the way one understands.
[Here I want to make a few additional comments on colinearity. I will
mention that those individuals who are "unhappy" with us and who go
away and begin to work to discredit what we are trying to do here in
achieving a real group that is colinear, are not necessarily unable to
EVER be colinear.
We recently discussed the case of Don D. who was an extended "guest"
here, and who simply could NOT grok the reality of colinearity or a
state wherein "one understands in the way they all understand, and all
understand in the way one understands."
In the end, it seems that he actually came here because he was
insecure, had many internal issues, and thought that he could lean on
us and play out all his loops here. He didn't understand that this
group here in the house, doing what we do, being on the "frontline,"
so to say, exposed to many dangers, MUST BE COLINEAR or we will not
survive. And if we do not survive, nothing that we hope to achieve
for ALL will survive either.
It was rather like a very small child who wanted to come and play with
the grown-ups at being a soldier. Well, in the case of a real war, a
child pretending to be a soldier can get everyone else killed. And
that is not a joke as we know from the situation that developed last
year with Montalk and Co. As it happened, that is pretty much what
Don did also.
And so, when we demand response-ability from such a person who wants
to be HERE with us, as opposed to working through all their issues
before coming here, they find the demand too much. It is like a kid
who has only learned to count wanting to attend calculus classes. He
isn't gonna make it. And when he is ejected from the class as being
unable to do the work, he goes away like a small child full of
resentment and anger that HIS needs were not attended to in a special
way. We get accused of being "cold" or "unfeeling" or having a "lack
of empathy" and so on. The FACT is that our empathy is directed
toward ALL, and one individual in our midst who is not colinear can
destroy everything for everyone else, as Don was certainly doing. Don
came to lean on us, to be a "follower" of someone who catered to him,
and when response-ability was expected of him, his feelings were hurt
and he spent all his time sulking or trying to figure out ways to "get
back at us."
What was totally unacceptable was the way he took his anger out on our
children. He was here for a total of four months, and the children
began to beg us to ask him to leave after just one week. But, since
he had spent the previous two years assuring us of how much he had
learned, how much he had progressed, and how much he wanted to help,
we felt he deserved a fair trial. It was only as we gradually came to
realize that Don had deeper problems than he had ever revealed that we
knew we had to do something right away. He had an inordinate interest
in very young girls, and an unpleasant habit of referring to women as
objects. Having four daughters, that was an intolerable situation.
Additionally, his frequent fond reminiscences of his days as a hard
core drug user and participant in group sex activities was completely
unacceptable. What was astonishing about this was that he seemed to
be totally unaware that such talk was NOT acceptable in the presence
of children!
Again and again we steeled ourselves to deliver the necessary shocks
that might wake him up and "align" his energies so that he could
remain with us as he so fervently declared he wanted to do. We knew
that he could not stay here as he was, and the only solution was to
try to "bring him up to speed" as quickly as possible. But he never,
ever understood that this was FOR HIM, that it was a form of "tough
love" that was desperately trying to elicit from him one single
response-able word or act.
It never came.
It was rather like having a "special needs" child in the family - the
larger family of all the groups - whose demands on time and energy
were so great that everyone in the "family" suffered. No amount of
therapy ever produced a single increment of progress. And so, in such
cases, what do you do? If it was a case of a parent with a single
child, there is certainly nothing wrong with devoting one's entire
life to the needs of such a child. But a parent that has many
children has to, at some point, determine that the needs of the other
children that DO have potential to advance and grow must be the
priority.
If Don had not had a place to go or a means to go there, we would have
undertaken to make such arrangements for him. Fortunately, he had
ample means and we had already given him the assistance he needed to
flee the US (which he did out of fear and no other reason.)
So, was Don, in his essence, STS? I don't think so. I don't think
there WAS an essence. Don was simply a "personality" as Gurdjieff has
described, and any essence that might have been there (assuming there
was any) had long since been "taken away." There was nothing left but
a bundle of fear programs, of insecurities, of the predator as Don
Juan described it: "The predators' mind is baroque, contradictory,
morose, filled with the fear of being discovered any minute
now." Now, back to Gurdjieff:]
"But as was said before, this understanding compared with the
understanding of the esoteric circle is somewhat more theoretical.
"The third circle is called the 'exoteric,' that is, the outer,
because it is the outer circle of the inner part of humanity. The
people who belong to this circle possess much of that which belongs to
people of the esoteric and mesoteric circles but their cosmic
knowledge is of a more philosophical character, that is to say, it is
more abstract than the knowledge of the mesoteric circle.
"A member of the mesoteric circle calculates, a member of the exoteric
circle contemplates. Their understanding may not be expressed in
actions. But there cannot be differences in understanding between
them. What one understands all the others understand.
[Again and again this matter of colinearity is mentioned as being KEY
to a true esoteric group. And again I emphasize, that we can DO
nothing without such a group on the earth. So forming such a group is
of PRIME importance.]
"In literature which acknowledges the existence of esotericism
humanity is usually divided into two circles only and the 'exoteric
circle' as opposed to the 'esoteric,' is called ordinary life. In
reality, as we see, the 'exoteric circle' is something very far from
us and very high. For ordinary man this is already 'esotericism.'
"The outer circle' is the circle of mechanical humanity to which we
belong and which alone we know. The first sign of this circle is that
among people who belong to it there is not and there cannot be a
common understanding. Everybody understands in his own way and all
differently.
[And we notice that the "this is my truth..." or the "you create your
own reality" is one of the chief features of this circle of mechanical
humanity. We also notice that this "mechanical feature" is what fears
colinearity and response-ability.]
"This circle is sometimes called the circle of the 'confusion of
tongues,' that is, the circle in which each one speaks in his own
particular language, where no one understands another and takes no
trouble to be understood.
"In this circle mutual understanding between people is impossible
excepting in rare exceptional moments or in matters having no great
significance, and which are confined to the limits of the given being.
"If people belonging to this circle become conscious of this general
lack of understanding and acquire a desire to understand and to be
understood, then it means they have an unconscious tendency towards
the inner circle because mutual understanding begins only in the
exoteric circle and is possible only there.
"But the consciousness of the lack of understanding usually comes to
people in an altogether different form.
"So that the possibility for people to understand depends on the
possibility of penetrating into the exoteric circle where
understanding begins.
"If we imagine humanity in the form of four concentric circles we can
imagine four gates on the circumference of the third inner circle,
that is, the exoteric circle, through which people of the mechanical
circle can penetrate.
"These four gates correspond to the four ways described before.
"The first way is the way of the fakir, the way of people number one,
of people of the physical body, instinctive-moving-sensory people
without much mind and without much heart.
"The second way is the way of the monk, the religious way, the way of
people number two, that is, of emotional people. The mind and the body
should not be too strong.
"The third way is the way of the yogi. This is the way of the mind,
the way of people number three. The heart and the body must not be
particularly strong, otherwise they may be a hindrance on this way.
"Besides these three ways yet a fourth way exists by which can go
those who cannot go by any of the first three ways.
"The fundamental difference between the first three ways, that is, the
way of the fakir, the way of the monk, and the way of the yogi, and
the fourth way consists in the fact that they are tied to permanent
forms which have existed throughout long periods of history almost
without change. At the basis of these institutions is religion.
"Where schools of yogis exist they differ little outwardly from
religious schools. And in different periods of history various
societies or orders of fakirs have existed in different countries and
they still exist.
"These three traditional ways are permanent ways within the limits of
our historical period.
"Two or three thousand years ago there were yet other ways which no
longer exist and the ways now in existence were not so divided, they
stood much closer to one another.
"The fourth way differs from the old and the new ways by the fact that
it is never a permanent way. It has no definite forms and there are no
institutions connected with it. It appears and disappears governed by
some particular laws of its own.
"The fourth way is never without some work of a definite significance,
is never without some undertaking around which and in connection with
which it can alone exist. When this work is finished, that is to say,
when the aim set before it has been accomplished, the fourth way
disappears, that is, it disappears from the given place, disappears in
its given form, continuing perhaps in another place in another form.
"Schools of the fourth way exist for the needs of the work which is
being carried out in connection with the proposed undertaking. They
never exist by themselves as schools for the purpose of education and
instruction.
"Mechanical help cannot be required in any work of the fourth way.
Only conscious work can be useful in all the undertakings of the
fourth way. Mechanical man cannot give conscious work so that the
first task of the people who begin such a work is to create conscious
assistants.
[Notice the above: "mechanical help cannot be required..." and I take
this to mean that such things as drugs or artificially induced states
- extended practices of meditation, prayer, and other ritualized
practices. In short, the first order of business is to STOP being
mechanical - what do the C's say "RITUALS RESTRICT." It also can be
related back to our story of Don. He wanted something to "follow" to
"lean on" and he simply could not awaken, become conscious of himself,
his response-ability, and the fact that he was NOT colinear. And all
attempts to help him to become conscious, all the shocks, accomplished
nothing.]
"The work itself of schools of the fourth way can have very many forms
and many meanings.
"In the midst of the ordinary conditions of life the only chance a man
has of finding a 'way' is in the possibility of meeting with the
beginning of work of this kind. But the chance of meeting with such
work as well as the possibility of profiting by this chance depends
upon many circumstances and conditions.
[What is becoming clearer and clearer as time passes is that the C's
are the seed of a REAL Fourth Way work as Gurdjieff described it. All
of the members of this group have encountered one another at the
beginning of this work.]
"The quicker a man grasps the aim of the work which is being executed,
the quicker can he become useful to it and the more will he be able to
get from it for himself.
[This last remark above is very important. It is crucial for the
members of this group to grasp the AIM of this work, the "grand
destiny" as the C's refer to it. And it was this that we were trying
to get across to Don, who by his many manipulations, managed to land
himself in our house, at which point we discovered that he did NOT
understand the AIM OF THE WORK. His lack of understanding - his lack
of colinearity - compelled him to act in ways that were designed -
even if unintentional - to destroy our ability to do what we are here
to do. ]
"But no matter what the fundamental aim of the work is, the schools
continue to exist only while this work is going on. When the work is
done the schools close. The people who began the work leave the stage.
Those who have learned from them what was possible to learn and have
reached the possibility of continuing on the way independently begin
in one form or another their own personal work.
"But it happens sometimes that when the school closes a number of
people are left who were round about the work, who saw the outward
aspect of it, and saw the whole of the work in this outward aspect.
[This is already happening, it seems. There are those who were "round
about the work" and who have seen the "outward aspect" and do not
understand the inward aspect even though I have written thousands of
pages in an attempt to convey this inner aspect. Several of these
people have been present at one or more sessions, and it is quite
interesting to observer them wandering around the internet talking
about their "prior involvement" in the work, and their take on it. My
suggestion to all of them is exactly what the C's said once:
Q: (BRH) Is there any way I can contact you guys directly?
A: Well, Devin, only if you present yourself into the
presence of these 3rd densities here. Remember, their
request was hard earned, and one of them has been
channeling throughout this incarnation, much to his
detriment. Those neighborhood kids usually do not respond
favorably to psychic awareness, now do they? Another one
here has literally turned the world upside down in search
of the greatest truths for all of humanity, much to her
potential peril. And the third one here had to endure
almost unimaginable hardships and tests of stamina in
order to realize his destined path of bringing your 3rd
density realm to the brink of 4th density transitional
adjustment. So, the path is open to you. Wanna follow?!?
It is in the above that we find a clue to the "destined path," the
mission of this particular Fourth Way work in which we are engaged.
Returning now to Gurdjieff's description of those who only see the
outer aspect and claim that they understand it all:]
"Having no doubts whatever of themselves or in the correctness of
their conclusions and understanding they decide to continue the work.
To continue this work they form new schools, teach people what they
have themselves learned, and give them the same promises that they
themselves received. All this naturally can only be outward imitation.
But when we look back on history it is almost impossible for us to
distinguish where the real ends and where the imitation begins.
"Strictly speaking almost everything we know about various kinds of
occult, masonic, and alchemical schools refers to such imitation. We
know practically nothing about real schools excepting the results of
their work and even that only if we are able to distinguish the
results of real work from counterfeits and imitations.
"But such pseudo-esoteric systems also play their part in the work and
activities of esoteric circles. Namely, they are the intermediaries
between humanity which is entirely immersed in the materialistic life
and schools which are interested in the education of a certain number
of people, as much for the purposes of their own existences as for the
purposes of the work of a cosmic character which they may be carrying
out.
"The very idea of esotericism, the idea of initiation, reaches people
in most cases through pseudo-esoteric systems and schools; and if
there were not these pseudo- esoteric schools the vast majority of
humanity would have no possibility whatever of hearing and learning of
the existence of anything greater than life because the truth in its
pure form would be inaccessible for them.
"By reason of the many characteristics of man's being, particularly of
the contemporary being, truth can only come to people in the form of a
lie— only in this form are they able to accept it; only in this form
are they able to digest and assimilate it.
"Truth undefiled would be, for them, indigestible food.
"Besides, a grain of truth in an unaltered form is sometimes found in
pseudo- esoteric movements, in church religions, in occult and
theosophical schools. It may be preserved in their writings, their
rituals, their traditions, their conceptions of the hierarchy, their
dogmas, and their rules.
[This is one of the major themes of Ancient Science, for those of you
who have read it.]
"Esoteric schools, that is, not pseudo-esoteric schools, which perhaps
exist in some countries of the East, are difficult to find because
they exist there in the guise of ordinary monasteries and temples.
Tibetan monasteries are usually built in the form of four concentric
circles or four concentric courts divided by high walls. Indian
temples, especially those in Southern India, are built on the same
plan but in the form of squares, one contained within the other.
Worshipers usually have access to the first outer court, and
sometimes, as an exception, persons of another religion and Europeans;
access to the second court is for people of a certain caste only or
for those having special permission; access to the third court is only
for persons belonging to the temple; and access to the fourth is only
for Brahmins and priests. Organizations of this kind which, with minor
variations, are everywhere in existence, enable esoteric schools to
exist without being recognized.
"Out of dozens of monasteries one is a school. But how is it to be
recognized? If you get inside it you will only be inside the first
court; to the second court only pupils have access. But this you do
not know, you are told they belong to a special caste. As regards the
third and fourth courts you cannot even know anything about them. And
you can, in fact, observe the same order in all temples and until you
are told you cannot distinguish an esoteric temple or monastery from
an ordinary one.
"The idea of initiation, which reaches us through pseudo-esoteric
systems, is also transmitted to us in a completely wrong form. The
legends concerning the outward rites of initiation have been created
out of the scraps of information we possess in regard to the ancient
Mysteries. The Mysteries represented a special kind of way in which,
side by side with a difficult and prolonged period of study,
theatrical representations of a special kind were given which depicted
in allegorical forms the whole path of the evolution of man and the
world.
"Transitions from one level of being to another were marked by
ceremonies of presentation of a special kind, that is, initiation.
"But a change of being cannot be brought about by any rites.
"Rites can only mark an accomplished transition.
"And it is only in pseudo-esoteric systems in which there is nothing
else except these rites, that they begin to attribute to the rites an
independent meaning. It is supposed that a rite, in being transformed
into a sacrament, transmits or communicates certain forces to the
initiate. This again relates to the psychology of an imitation way.
"There is not, nor can there be, any outward initiation. In reality
only self- initiation, self presentation exist. Systems and schools
can indicate methods and ways, but no system or school whatever can do
for a man the work that he must do himself. Inner growth, a change of
being, depend entirely upon the work which a man must do on himself."
SELF-INITIATION.
"Like attracts like."
"When a candidate has developed virtue and integrity acceptable to the
adepts, they will appear to him and reveal those parts of the secret
processes which cannot be discovered without such help.
"Those who cannot progress to a certain point with their own
intelligence are not qualified to be entrusted with the secrets which
can subject to their will the elemental forces of Nature."
Such individuals as Don - and even others - who are "attracted" to the
C's material and who then find themselves in my presence and do not
"like" me, or feel that I am "unfeeling" or not sufficiently
interested in their personal problems ought to carefully re-read the
sessions and note that these were issues between me and the C's on
many occasions. The following is a prime example:
Q: (L) Well, that is about it. I have lately been verbally
attacked by numerous individuals... so I am not in a mood
to tolerate much in this line from those around me.
A: And if this irritates you, it is because you allow it to.
Q: (L) Fine and dandy. And it is true, and I know it. Which
is why I am beginning to think that I ought to simply do
nothing, because my feelings are too sensitive.
A: And do you really believe that that is an unalterable
condition?
Q: (L) Well, why should I be the one who is obliged to become
less sensitive, and other people are not obliged to become
more thoughtful about what they say?
A: You cannot control others.
(notice that in the above, the issue of "control" is related to me
wanting other people to be more sensitive to ME! And so it is with so
many others like Don. They want me - and everyone else - to be
sensitive to THEM, and this is a form of attempting to control others.
Q: (L) I don't want to control anyone. I am just saying that
the obvious thing is for me to simply withdraw into my own
little world of reading and thinking and writing, and if
nothing ever comes of any of it, it is utterly immaterial
to me.
A: That is your choice, but not a wise one!!!
Q: (L) Well, you say that, but it is, as several people have
pointed out to me, only since we have begun this
channeling project that all these dreadful things have
happened in my life. My life is a shambles!
A: "Dreadful is subjective."
(Indeed, for me, the many shocks the C's delivered served to wake me
up to many things and I began to make changes. Some might say that I
did so before I was strong enough, and perhaps there is some truth in
that. But I DID survive, so obviously whatever was needed to survive
was in me.)
Q: (L) I would say that the physical things that have
happened to me, the collapse of my marriage, the things
that have happened to my children, are pretty damn
dreadful, subjectively or otherwise!
A: Before these changes began to manifest, you were deeper
into the "deadly illusion" than you are now. Emergence
is, by its very nature, uncomfortable. But, it has and
will, empower you, we promise!!!!!!!!
Q: (L) It is a very trying time now. I am having a difficult
time just coping.
A: And there have been others, and will be others, but that
does not mean that the rewards will be slight.
Q: (L) Well...
A: You are on a path of destiny, and there is no turning back
now.
Q: (S) What happened in specific? (L) Well, I was trying to
explain some of the material to several people, and the
end result was that they decided that I was possessed and
that the C's were evil because they say that we have to
figure things out ourselves in order to graduate to the
next level. Including my husband.
A: Why does this bother you? It does not bother us. They
can all decide that we are the "Queens of Satan," if they
wish. It is free will.
(And so it is for those such as Don and others like him: They can all
decide that I am the "Queen of Satan" if they wish. It is free will.)
Q: (L) I don't like the implied hardness... I am not a hard
person.
A: It is not hardness. The "feelings" you describe are
related to ego, and by relation, pride, two things that
were deliberately implanted into the 3rd density human
psyche by the 4th density STS 309,000 years ago, as you
measure time. Refer to the transcripts with regard to DNA
alteration and the occipital ridge. Believe it or not,
you, Laura, will be rid of these, eventually. It is not
what some individuals respond to you that matters. It is
sharing the information that counts. ...
"We are you in the future."
Which brings us to the point: The C's are so quantumly entangled with
me and my life and experiences that to reject me is essentially is to
reject the C's. As they have said, "we are YOU in the future" and I
am the only constant to all the sessions. I am NOT perfect, but I am
the one who conceived and carried out the experiment. I am the one
the C's talk to still, and who utilizes this contact to navigate the
path we are on. The C's were and are my initiators as they clearly
stated many times. Fulcanelli also comments on this factor:
"Furthermore, in our opinion, it seems insufficient to know how to
recognize and classify facts exactly; one must still question nature
and learn from her in what conditions and under the control of what
will her manifold productions take place. Indeed, the philosophical
mind will not be content with the mere possibility of identifying
bodies. It demands the knowledge of the secret of their elaborations.
To open ajar the door of the laboratory where nature mixes the
elements is good; to discover the occult force, under whose influences
her work is accomplished, is better. [...]
"Alchemy is obscure only because it is hidden. The philosophers who
wanted to transmit the exposition of their doctrine and the fruit of
their labors to posterity took great care not to divulge the art by
presenting it under a common form so that the layman could not misuse
it. Thus because of the difficulty one has of understanding it,
because of the mystery of its enigmas and of the opacity of its
parables, the science has come to be shut up among reveries, illusions
and chimeras. [...]
"With their confused texts, sprinkled with cabalistic expressions, the
books remain the efficient and genuine cause of the gross mistake that
we indicate. For, in spite of the warnings... students persisted in
reading them according to the meanings that they hold in ordinary
language. They do not know that these texts are reserved for
initiates, and that it is essential, in order to understand them, to
be in possession of their secret key. One must first work at
discovering this key.
"Most certainly these old treatises contain, if not the entire
science, at least its philosophy, its principles, and the art of
applying them in conformity with natural laws. But if we are unaware
of the hidden meaning of the terms - for example, the meaning of Ares,
which is different from Aries - strange qualifications purposely used
in the composition of such works, we will understand nothing of them
or we will be infallibly led into error.
"We must not forget that it is an esoteric science. Consequently, a
keen intelligence, an excellent memory, work, and attention aided by a
strong will are NOT sufficient qualities to hope to become learned in
this subject. Nicolas Grosparmy writes:
'Such people truly delude themselves who think that we have only made
our books for them, but we have made them to keep out all those who
are not of our sect.' "Batsdorff, in the beginning of his treatise,
charitably warns the reader in these terms:
'Every prudent mind must first acquire the Science if he can; that is
to say, the principles and the means to operate. Otherwise he should
stop there, without foolishly using his time and his wealth. And so, I
beg those who will read this little book to credit my words. I say to
them once more, that THEY WILL NEVER LEARN THIS SUBLIME SCIENCE BY
MEANS OF BOOKS, AND THAT IT CAN ONLY BE LEARNED THROUGH DIVINE
REVELATION, HENCE IT IS CALLED DIVINE ART, or through the means of a
good and faithful master; and since there are very few of them to whom
God has granted this grace, there are also very few who teach it.'"
That is why I entitled by book about the lifelong process of
initiation: Amazing Grace.
But it is only of value when I give it away. And that is what our
website is all about: sharing, networking, and finding colinear souls
so as to form a magnetic center - and ARK - so that the Wave -
assuming that it even exists, and that is only a hypothesis - can
transduce through such "anchorers of frequency" and carry us all
through the coming dissolution.
I am become ONE: Creator of Worlds.
