DOMINION AND OUR TRIUNE HEART

SINCE ENGAGING WITH FRIENDS in the publication of the Fourth Edition of SACRED ANATOMY ~ Temple of the Living God, my thoughts have gathered around the biology that facilitates heart-brain intelligence — inspired and guided by Joseph Chilton Pearce’s scholarly book THE BIOLOGY OF TRANSCEDENCE ~ A Blueprint of the Human Spirit.

This centering in heart-brain dynamic arises out of a keen interest in the mechanism by which David Bohm’s implicate and explicate orders interface and interact with one another, the one giving form, birth and function to the other — in biblical terms, how the ordinances of Heaven are set in the Earth. The sayings “the heart knows best” and “go with your heart” are not only true but have a biological basis in our physiology. There’s a hormonal aspect to it as well. This excerpt from Pearce’s book speaks to this vibrational mechanism in some detail.

Consider, then, these three established ways by which the heart regulates and influences brain-body systems. (Sound waves may prove a fourth influence, as Schwartz and Russek suggest.) First and most spectacular of these three — and most unrecognized yet — is the electromagnetic activity we’ve already discussed. Heart radiation [love] saturates every cell, DNA molecule, glia, and so on, and helps determine their function and destiny. From this viewpoint the heart seems a frequency generator, creating the fields of information our of which we build our experience of ourselves and the world.

Of course, as we know, our hearts do not regulate or generate anything on their own. As sovereign beings we use our hearts to regulate the activities of our mind-body continuum and our entire temple and creative fields. As radiant beings, we send currents of love energy into our hearts which then resonate and amplify those energetic frequencies and broadcast them. Our human capacities do not rightly act on their own but rather serve as resonating chambers through which we regulate the intensity and volume of our creative expression.

It is the self-generated human activity that shuts out spirit and excludes the contribution of the heart’s intelligence, and consequently that of divine being, which empowers our very humanity.

Having said that, I find it fascinating and enlightening to read this author’s presentation of the intricate details of biological activity that helps facilitate the generative activities involved in creating our world and our experience in it.

Second, our neural-laden heart has a myriad of neural connections with the body and direct, unmediated neural connection with the emotional structure of the brain (from which comes the new and popular subject of “emotional intelligence,” our brain’s translation of that nonverbal, gestalt type of knowing: heart intelligence). These neural connections allow an ongoing dynamic interchange to take place between the brain and the heart quite beneath our awareness. Heart intelligence is not anything of which we are aware, though we surely are aware of the results of these neural interactions. I am reminded of James Carse’s wonderful essay “The Silence of God” and Gurumayi’s comment that “the language of the heart is silence.”

The third level of influence of the heart on the brain is hormonal, which led to the observation of “The Heart as an Endocrine Gland.” This was the title from the cover story of Scientific America concerning the French Physicians Roget et al., who discovered that the atrial area of the heart produces a hormone, labeled ANF, which can modulate and influence the functions of the emotional-cognitive system.

We do well to remember that in utero the heart, as vehicle for the frequencies of our potential world experience, forms first; the brain, as a vehicle of our awareness of those frequency translations, forms second. The heart is intimately connected to every facet of the body and the brain through its own neural extensions. As a result, the intelligence of the heart, not the intellect of the brain, has to contend with those signals from the pancreas, liver, spleen, and so on, to maintain order in the ranks. This leaves me, up here in my head, free to dream of dancing nymphs; or to growl about the foolish ideas of preachers, lawyers, politicians, or books by any authors.

A large segment of the earth’s electromagnetic spectrum is its radio band, and this may be true of the heart as well. The heart, earth and sun furnish us the fundamental materials of our reality-making. The heart’s em field, like that of the earth, shields us against inappropriate frequencies as best it can, and selects from the larger hologram in which are nested those frequency groupings appropriate to our growth, development, and ongoing life. In this way what is broad, generic, and universal is expressed on an intimate, personal level, making each of us, even “the least of these our brothers,” equal expressions of the totality. Thus, if we have the vision, we will see all things as “holy” or whole, as William Blake did, or “see God in each other” as Muktananda did, or find God in the “least of our brothers,” as Jesus did. Anything that is holographic is just that, a graph of the whole — and each of us is that.

Because of, or through, this holographic hierarchy of em fields, our heart and brain frequencies can entrain [synchronize] to modulate earth’s frequencies to an unknown extent because what we perceive as earth frequencies are translated through our reptilian hindbrain and its sensory-motor system, and the higher can transform the nature of the lower. This accounts for the concrete operational thinking that opens for development around our seventh year. According to Piaget, in concrete operational thinking thought can “operate” on matter, or sensory signals, and change it according to the intent of the thought. This offers us a dominion over our world that we have not yet accepted or exercised, but which our great model demonstrated for us. (emphasis added)

Power is relative to the creative process. A minute shift in frequency in our brain can result in a serious shift in our experience of the world out there. At some point on this spectrum, our experience and the world we experience are reciprocal. The dynamic of creator and created is a play of power and strength we participate in by default and a play we might try to become more aware of so that we can be more conscious of what we are doing.

As I have elucidated in previous posts, the true and literal meaning of “dominion” is lordship, its Latin root “dominus” meaning lord, which indicates the presence of a sovereign offering the governance of Love. This is the opposite of “domination” which exercises power and control based not in lordship and sovereignty but in egoistic imposition of human will over others in one’s world — the current male-dominated governing practice of self-centered human beings — and humanity as a collective body. The excerpt above touches into the very core of our relationship with our environment, and especially with the Natural world — which is not there for our pleasure and sustenance alone but is very much our ordained responsibility to care for and multiply with fruitful abundance. “Be fruitful and multiply” were our Creator’s words of blessing as He/She sent Man, male and female, forth into the Garden of Eden, according to the Book of Genesis.

AI AND TRANSHUMANISM

The interview with Gregg Braden was very thought provoking. Just thirty minutes into it I had to pause and take in the implications of what he was laying out as the choices we are facing today in the rapid movement toward “Artificial Intelligence” and what is being called “Transhumanism.” It all sounds wonderful and productive — or scary when you consider the tradeoffs implied but not talked about among technocrats nor mentioned in some kind of caveat.

Braden speaks of the tradeoffs: “Are we willing to give over our humanity to technology before we have realized what it is to be fully human?” . . . in exchange for fast-speed computer chip processing of information to give us instant answers and gratification? That’s what it would amount to, and in my book it’s not worth it.

Humanity is being given an existential choice between transcendence and transhumanism — remembering that everything that we program computers to do, or that they can do on their own, we have the power to do, and do it even better — and with pleasure and a sense of satisfaction, something AI doesn’t afford us, nor transhumans can experience.

MAN CONTINUES TO FALL

So why on God’s green earth would we give up our capacity for emotional enjoyment of life’s many pleasures, our feelings of empathy and compassion for one another, our intuition, our spiritual quest for transcendence? Artificial Intelligence, leading to transhumanism, would do exactly that. Bringing forward a statement I made two posts ago reflecting on a sentence from Pearce’s book:

“Intellect, however, can function independently and can take over the circuitry and block our heart’s more subtle signals” — not a very intelligent thing to allow one’s cerebral intellect [or the technocrats] to do. Therein lies the cause, I do believe, of man’s problems — as well as the likely cause of man’s “Fall” from grace and loss of Paradise.

Some years ago — when the computer was making its debut into the world of information processing — exercising my divining vision, or foresight, to peer into the future, I predicted that the legendary “Fall” of man would continue beyond his tumble down into the animal kingdom and proceed downward into the mineral kingdom where he would meet a brick wall made of silica, having fallen a far down into the earth as was possible. Not insignificant, his ongoing fall beyond death into sheer oblivion is being escorted by his intellect. By relegating our intelligence to a silicon chip, we may be relinquishing our capacity to think critically for ourselves and question everything coming down the pipeline of the news media, for one thing — and where we begin to rationalize such things as war, for example.

I don’t know how many noticed a comment made a few days ago on PBS World News about arms dealers supplying ammo to both sides of the war over Ukraine. Who are these arms dealers if not merchants of the Military Industrial Complex President Eisenhower warned the world against eighty years ago at the end of the Second World War. Wake up Americans! Listen critically to what you’re being told by corporate-owned news media.

Gregg Braden couches the theme of his interview in the context of a war waging between good and evil, between light and dark forces, over our humanity. Why our humanity? Because, as he points out, our humanity, equipped with a heart, is the only means by which we have access to the powerful forces of our divinity within us and return to God, to the Light of Love, the mortal enemy of the fear-mongering warlords.

OUR DIVINITY

There’s a passage in The First Book of Adam and Eve (from The Forgotten Books of Eden, edited by Rutherford H. Platt, Jr.) which I would like to bring into this consideration. It has to do with our divinity, our “bright nature.”  

      Then God the Lord said unto Adam, “When thou wast under subjection to Me, thou hadst a bright nature within thee, and for that reason couldst thou see things afar off.  But after thy transgressions, thy bright nature was withdrawn from thee; and it was not left to thee to see things afar off, but only near at hand; after the ability of the flesh; for it is brutish. . . .”

Our “human divinity,” as Braden calls it in the interview — more accurately our ability to “see” afar into the future — is an attribute of our “bright nature” — that aspect of Divine Being, or God, which we are as angels incarnate. In peering up the road ahead, we can see with our spiritual eye the wonderful possibilities prepared for us and poised to descend from God out of Heaven into the Earth. With our “brutish” human eyes, we can only imagine and predict the future based on our past track record and present experience — from which we don’t seem to learn anything, but continue in our insane ways.

While I see where we’re headed as a human species based on our past record and current behavior, the bazar creatures these technocrats are busy concocting with their AI and transhumanism — robotic humans to replace self-willed and spirit-empowered Human Beings — will never come to pass. There are too many awake and aware human beings, conscious angels present and shining light into the darkness exposing the dark forces that would destroy God’s creation and enslave human beings to do their bidding. It simply will never happen on a global scale.

There are a billion more angels incarnate on this small planet than were originally designated. They’ve come here from other star systems to lend a vibrational hand in the transformation of Humanity. There’s a lot of light shining in the world today. The darkness cannot comprehend the light, but the light-workers and the whole world can see the dark forces. They are being exposed and will try to hide. But they cannot hide from the light of love and truth.

I believe what I see with my Single Eye: a New Earth being born out of the New Heaven already prepared for us on the banquet table of Divine Consciousness. Look up and go up. Look down, but only with your eyes, not with your heart. Keep your heart looking upward. With your spiritual Eye keep looking up to see and receive what is coming from out of the East into this Garden planted Eastward in Eden, and looking down only to see where it wants to land and to help co-steward its manifestation with others. I believe this is why we incarnated at this historic time. Until my next post,

Be love. Be loved.
