Above, Down, Inside, Out . . . Part 5: The Faith Factor

THE ELDERLY GRANDFATHER appeared somewhat subdued as he presented at my office for his weekly attunement session. We had been sharing attunement for several weeks and Earl loved the deep peace and serenity he experienced as I held his head and upper cervical region between my hands. Then I would move my hands so as to encompass his entire physical anatomy and physiology through the parietal lobes of the brain, entering his body temple through the energy portal of the Central Sulcus, a very powerful contact. It’s the soft spot atop an infant’s cranium which eventually calcifies.

Shortly after completing our session, Earl asked if I would be willing to share attunement with his great-grandson. He went on to explain that the little nineteen-month-old boy was in the hospital in New Orleans with kidney failure awaiting transplant surgery. His mother was being prepped to give him one of her kidneys. My initial response was that the hospital would not allow me, a chiropractor, into his room to offer my service to the child. Earl emphatically responded, “NO! I MEAN FROM HERE!”

Now, the hospital was eighty miles away. Seeing his absolute faith, confidence and belief, I had no inclination to deny Earl his request. I simply offered him my agreement and instructed him to lie down on his right side on the adjusting table.

Standing behind the elderly gentleman, I proceeded to extend my hands over his kidney area, after acknowledging my connection with Source, in search of a pattern. Much to my surprise, I felt a somewhat large sphere of erratic energy between my hands. Then, within less than a minute, the ball of energy began to dissipate, similar to a balloon loosing its air. It was gone within a few moments. So I told Earl I felt we had done all we could do. He got up from the table, thanked me and I returned my thanks to him for seeking my agreement in his deep compassionate desire to help his great-grandson. I had never met such absolute faith in a patient.

The next morning, choked up with tears, Earl called to tell me he had received word from the hospital at two in the morning that the child had urinated normally in his bed and had been taken off dialysis. The transplant surgery was shortly canceled and the lad was discharged from the hospital the next couple of days. How utterly overjoyed we both were. I didn’t have to go to the hospital to share attunement with him. Earl was holding him in his heart. He had brought his little great-grandson with him vibrationally. His love for the child made them one and provided a carrier wave for Spirit and for our intention, and Love never fails us.

This was my first “long-distance attunement” and a very rich blessing to Earl, to his great-grandson and his parents, as well as to myself. So, many hearts were lifted up in prayers of gratitude for what the doctors themselves said was “nothing short of a miracle!” All it took was two in agreement in the current of love, just like the centurion in the Gospel. Through our agreement, a “mountain” of interference to the flow of the River of Life in the little boy’s body was removed. To this day, I give profound thanks to the Father within for finding me a worthy instrument for His “works” of healing and increasing life abundantly in those who were led to my Chiropractic service. I saw the little boy a few days later and he was just a bundle of joy. I am blessed beyond words.

ATTUNEMENT IS MAGNETIC HEALING . . . AND MORE

I promised to share the above story in this series, and I do so fully aware of its occurring outside the box of the science and art of Chiropractic . . . not, however, outside the scope of Chiropractic philosophy. Healing through Attunement is “magnetic healing,” what D.D. Palmer was offering before Chiropractic was born through his healing hands . . . and it’s more than that.

TECHNIQUE AND METHODOLOGY DON’T MATTER

There are colleagues who will object to what I just wrote. Let us remember, however, that Love’s healing current is no respecter of person or technique. Jesus, Love incarnate, used mud to heal a blind man’s eyesight. He didn’t need the mud, but He likely felt the blind man did. The Healing Power of Love moves through any technique and is no respecter of technique or methodology.

Attunement doesn’t “belong” to a group or organization, although it is housed and taught by Emissaries of Divine Light (EDL). It’s also held sacred and taught by Chris Jorgensen and friends of the International Association of Attunement Practitioners (IAAP). Both organizations do offer a certificate to those who complete the training. Anyone and everyone can, with proper training, offer Attunement to another. Chiropractic, on the other hand, does “belong” to a licensed profession, as does surgery and the administration of prescription drugs.

LAWS DO IMPOSE LIMITATIONS

On a side note, our dad used to adjust our necks when we had an illness. He learned the technique from his barber who had had some training, which was not uncommon in those days, several years after medical students got their training following a doctor around on his house calls. We always felt better afterwards. The barber, of course, was told by the powers that were to stop adjusting his customers. I will add that adjusting a segment of the spine has its risks, especially where an x-ray of the spine isn’t used to see what the condition the bones are in. Proper examination is important so as not to cause any harm.

It may have been unwise of me, but I never bought malpractice insurance, except when I worked out of another doctor’s clinic and had to have it. I made sure that I didn’t malpractice. I was sued only once by a man whose charge against me was that I injured his child. I had to hire an attorney to determine that the man had beat up his own daughter and tried to escape the law . . . and make some money . . . by blaming me. Upon learning I had no malpractice insurance, he withdrew his charge. A famous lawyer once wrote that he could count his real malpractice cases on one hand. All the rest were poor doctor-patient rapport. But enough with my fuss over injustices. What else can one expect in a world out of balance and oriented in filthy lucre?! We reap according to the nature of our sowing.

FCB PSI

Dr. Jim Parker, whom I’ve referenced earlier, used to say at his practice-building seminars, we must have Faith, Confidence and Belief in our Product, Service and Idea. BJ Palmer taught, “Get the Big Idea, all else will follow.” The fact that a patient is present in my office indicates faith, confidence and belief are fully present. They were certainly present with Earl, providing an open avenue for the healing current to move through to his great-grandson eighty miles away . . . but only geographically. Vibrationally, there was no distance between Earl and his great-grandson. His love made them one. All I did was offer him a point of agreement and mediation with Source. All else followed. “The Father within, He doeth the works.” I think we know very little about the power of two in agreement on earth as touching the critical events in life that come our way. We are not isolated from one another . . . nor from Source. “No man is an island,” as a poet once penned.*

I’ve enjoyed a rich and successful career in the field of healthcare. Chiropractic was more to me than a technique for fixing backaches, neckaches and headaches. It was an instrument in my healing hands for releasing “. . . the imprisoned impulse, the tiny rivulet of force, that emanates from the mind and flows over the nerves to the cells, and stirs them into life . . . the magic power that transforms common food into living, loving, thinking clay; that robes the earth with beauty, and hues and scents the flowers with glory.” For fifty years I was privileged to work with “the subtle substance of the soul” flowing in and through the many souls who came to the light of my shining. As for results, I wasn’t concerned with them. I simply let love radiate as I delivered the “Big Idea” and let all else follow in Life’s perfect way and timing. My protection came from the One Whose life it is and Whom I served. It was all good.

I welcome any thoughts you wish to share. Until my next post, which will complete this series,

Be love. Be loved.

The Pituitary Gland and the Spirit of the Womb

Earth’s Atmospheric Womb

“If you continue in my word, you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (Jesus)

I love it when someone says or writes something that moves me to re-think my beliefs — my belief about “the Truth” for instance, and how it makes us free. The word “truth” has acquired a rather dogmatic connotation.  I have adopted a more philosophical meaning that’s free of parochial baggage:

Truth is simply design and control.

Truth is what makes things and events what they are — shapes them and gives them purposeful function and freedom of movement. For example, the truth of a hand is its shape and flexibility, its main purpose being to hold things. “Hands are the servants of the body,” someone once said. If it were to lose its characteristics, we could say the hand has lost its truth — along with its freedom of movement. 

In the case of events, the truth is what’s behind the facts that shapes them and gives them their meaning and purpose.  Someone recently said that in order to find the truth you have to know the facts. Facts may lead to the truth, but facts are not truth. Facts are the surface play of events behind which lies their truth. Altering the facts with “fake news” does not change the truth. As the saying goes, the truth will out — and free us from deception. 

All things have their truth, and when their truth is compromised, things break down and fail to function. If one uses one’s hand as a hammer, for example, it will get damaged and eventually break down. Thankfully, we have pain to stop such abuse. When one goes to the doctor with a broken hand, the doctor will put it in a cast to stabilize it so that it can heal. Healing occurs as the truth of the hand returns to it — from within — freeing it from its limitations.

The truth of a human being is not the collection of concepts and beliefs acquired by the mind. The truth of a human being is the Spirit that informs our flesh, gives it design, control and freedom of movement; that enlightens our minds so we can see clearly what is true and what is false, freeing us from the limitations of preconceived concepts and beliefs. That spirit has been called “The Spirit of Truth.”  

This brings me to this new series of considerations on the spiritual significance of the Pituitary gland with excerpts from my book SACRED ANATOMY.  

THE PITUITARY GLAND & THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH

   Underneath the brain is a saddle-shaped depression in the sphenoid bone called the Sella Tursica.  The sphenoid is a large bone appearing in shape like a bat in flight forming the floor of the skull and connecting all the bones of the cranium together.  Here the Pituitary gland (hypophysis) rests protected in her bony saddle, much as a queen upon her throne exercising loving but firm dominion over her queendom. In size and shape similar to that of a green pea, the Pituitary’s domain is the entire endocrine system and the overall production of hormones throughout the body.  It accomplishes all of this with the coordinating assistance of the Hypothalamus. For this reason it has earned the distinguished title of the “Master Gland” or “Mother Gland.”

    The Pituitary encompasses both masculine and feminine functions. Comprised of two lobes, anterior and posterior, this gland is suspended by a stalk attached to the Hypothalamus at the base of the brain, from which it receives decision-making commands regarding its own hormonal secretions.  These commands are the positive creative emanations of the Spirit of Love. They are based in part on information about the surrounding circumstances received through the eyes by way of light, as well as through the other physical, mental and emotional senses. They bring the patterns of design and control for the manifestation of life in and through the body temple.

Pituitary gland seated     in the  Sella Tursica

    The anterior lobe of the Pituitary (adenohypophysis) secretes most of the Pituitary hormones which stimulate growth, egg and sperm development, milk secretion, as well as determining the hormonal secretions of the thyroid, adrenal and gonadal glands and affects the growth of long bones, muscles and internal organs, all functions of the achieving masculine. 

   The posterior lobe of the Pituitary (neurohypophysis) stores and releases hormones from the hypothalamus that control Pituitary function, uterine contraction and milk release and blood pressure.  It is concerned more with the mammary glands, stimulating the production of milk through the hormone prolactin, for example, and the kidneys by regulating the secretion of urine and body fluid levels in general, all functions of the nurturing feminine. 

   There are many functions in the body temple which this tiny but pivotal gland services. One of its most important ones is the production of growth hormones that regulate the cellular absorption of nutrients to control their development. Growth hormones also work with insulin in controlling blood sugar.  Another function influenced by the Pituitary gland is the metabolism, the building up and tearing down of tissues and the burning of food for energy. This is likely its most important of services to the body, one which it carries out in partnership with the thyroid and adrenal glands by stimulating them to release thyroxine and glucocorticoid hormones. In fact, most of the production of pituitary hormones is for the purpose of stimulating other hormonal glands. Such hormones are called precursors because they are literally forerunners to the hormones that are produced by their facilitation.  

   An interesting function of the Pituitary, relating to its motherly role, is the production of oxytocin, a hormone secreted by the pituitary glands of both mother and baby triggered by the pressure on the top of the infant’s head exerted by the hyper-extended surrounding tissues of the womb.  This somehow gives a signal to the child to initiate the series of contractions in the uterus that push it out at the time of birth.  At the same time it starts up the production of milk, the first food it will need after the umbilical cord is cut. One doesn’t commonly think of the baby initiating its own birthing process.  Nevertheless, here is a living example of the child of Love obeying the wise direction of its Mother, the Spirit of Truth working through the Pituitary gland, while exercising its freedom, based simply in how things work in the natural order and design, to set its own cycles in motion and therein assume full responsibility for all that follows this first step that initiates life in the conscious world. 

THE SEAT OF WISDOM    

   In partnership with the Pineal gland, the Pituitary gland provides a focus in the body temple for the nurturing Spirit of the Womb, another name for the Spirit of Truth. These names aptly describe the function of this gland in the growth and maturation processes in the body, much as a mother wisely oversees the care and nurturing of her offspring. Here is the seat of wisdom where the impeccable design and absolute control bring the firm dominion of spiritual and corporeal governance into the affairs of the temple and beyond.

   The essences of the Spirit of the Womb may begin to be perceived as we meditate more deeply upon the furnishings of the temple, represented in their metaphorical details in the story of the Ark of the Covenant.  In front of the ark an altar was placed and on the altar a golden candlestick.  This candlestick was unusual in that it held seven candles.  It was so fashioned that out from the one central candlestick branched six other candles so as to form a candelabrum which held seven candles. The description of this candelabrum is remarkably detailed in Exodus (25:31-40).   

    And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knobs, and his flowers, shall be of the same….Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knob and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, with a knob and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick.  

The Menorah

First of all, the candlestick is made of pure gold, symbolizing the spirit and golden substance of love out of which the seven endocrine glands, along with the entire body temple, are made.  It was a “beaten work” which means it was all made out of one solid piece of gold.  As portrayed in this picture of the Menorah, the shaft, branches, bowls, knobs and flowers of this candlestick symbolize the endocrine system with its masculine and feminine hormonal glands, many of them almond-like in shape. They are blended together in this candelabrum just as both the man and the woman have masculine and feminine energies working within them.   

     A profound sense of awe comes over me each time I read this passage, arousing in my innermost core a sense of the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine together in rapturous embrace — Father God received into the womb of Mother God.   It is clearly apparent to me that present within our own body temples is the reality which this prophetic candelabrum symbolizes — the seven endocrine glands powered by the Spirit of Love focused in the Pineal and carefully coordinated by the Spirit of the Womb via the Pituitary, to make the Spirit of Life manifest in the body temple with all its majesty and glory in a continual ceremony of ascension. Here, indeed, is where divine Man was created and placed by the LORD God on the sixth day of creation.  Not the mortal man we know today but divine Man, a state of Immortal Being which we have long forgotten but are beginning to re-member, not only in theory but in actual experience.

     The first divine man . . . was created on the sixth day; that is, on the sixth plane of world being, where union takes place and the change from negative to positive is consummated. Divine man was to have dominion over all the earth, and everything on the earth.  (Uranda, The Triune Ray)

   Here is the positive radiation of love coming to focus in the masculine energy which gives its release potency and penetration. This description of “his shaft, his branches, his bowls, his knobs and his flowers” portrays the Divine Masculine in his positive, vertical presence in harmonious partnership with the Divine Feminine, drawing forth the creativity inherent in her responsive juiciness and elegant, nurturing reception and embrace of his seminal expressions of love at the sixth level of being where they were placed together in the Garden planted Eastward in Eden to dress and to keep it.  She never tires in her role of preparing a fertile womb for their gestation, protection and maturation.

The Spirit of the Womb contains the very essences of the Creative Process at the sixth plane of being, a principle that is solely concerned with bringing forth the seeds of love through the cycles of conception, gestation, growth and development, and eventual harvest and birth.  It is the role of Mother God, played so majestically and meticulously, looking after every last detail with as much care as she will show for the baby itself once it is born through her womb. It is the role of Father God empowering her and supporting her in every large and small way needed for their labor of love. Man, Masculine and Feminine, is the Mother of God.

   This was not just an ordinary candelabrum for holding candles to illumine an otherwise dark temple.  It was a ceremonial candle depicting the profoundly sacred and erotogenic anatomy of Man which is designed to facilitate creation, which itself was designed to facilitate the ceremony of ascension of substance before the throne of God in heaven as well as on earth. —-(Excerpted from SACRED ANATOMY)

Resonance with the Music of the Spheres

Hexagon storm patter on Saturn’s North pole likely created by sound.

RESONANCE is more easily experienced than explained.  I think we all know from experience what it is, so perhaps we could explore some of the implications of resonance as they relate to attunement, and do some experiential exercises.

This Biblical passage speaks to the dynamic of resonance: “The spirit of this world comes and finds nothing in me.” Because the Master had no strings attached to this world that would resonate with the coarse vibrations of man’s world at the time.

 Understanding Harmonic Resonance

Everything has a certain frequency at which it vibrates. This is known as an object’s resonant frequency. Some objects have two or more resonant frequencies, just as we have not one, but several endocrine and chakras centers that resonate differently from or bones and organ tissues.

When sound or light waves, which have their own resonant frequency, hit an object, it will lead to harmonic resonance if that frequency corresponds to the resonant frequency of the object.

When that happens, they are tuned to one another; therefore, both of them will sync together. They entrain.

Sometimes, in order for harmonic resonance to occur, the amplitude of the vibration of an object must increase due to the corresponding vibrations of the other object.

(This has implications and application in the dynamics at work during attunement.)

Imagine that you’re a clock and the universe is also a clock. If you are in tune and your frequencies match, you will start ticking together through harmonic resonance.

The Chakra’s Emitting Tones

Each chakra has its frequency of vibration, sound, color, and symbol to which it is tuned. When it is balanced, cleansed, and energized, then the chakra is in harmony and plays its most beautiful melody, emitting inherent vibrations.

Many aspects of life can affect these chakra frequencies and ruin the harmony, such as chaotic sounds, stress, and unhealthy thoughts and emotions.

On the other hand, things like certain people’s voices, beautiful music, positive mantras, and the vibrational energy of colors and precious stones can help to bring our chakra frequencies back into harmonic resonance.

Entrainment occurs when one rhythmic vibrating object resonates and synchronizes with another object — demonstrated by one explorer who put several Big Ben clocks with swinging pendulums in a room together. In the morning he discovered they were all ticking and swinging together in sync.

In a TED talk Judie Diamond sent to me recently, Dr. Lee Bartel, who works with honey bees, tells the story about a cricket who chirps in sync with a squeaky fan belt on a piece of machinery in his shop.  He goes on to explain how he uses sound to entrain brain waves and body cells to 40 Hz, which he discovered affected  symptomatic improvement in patients with Alzheimer’s and dementia, even fibromyalgia.  He explains how 40 Hz creates Gamma waves in the brain by way of entrainment. This is equivalent to the low E on a piano.

Gamma rays are right on the edge of the electromagnetic spectrum between x-ray radiation and light.  They are given off by stars, and by radioactive substances. They are extremely high frequency waves, and carry a large amount of energy. They pass through most materials, and are quite difficult to stop – you need lead or concrete in order to block them out.  They are used to kill cancer cells, which, unlike healthy cells, cannot repair themselves once damaged by gamma rays.  There is an implication here relating to the impact stars and heavenly bodies radiate vibrations that resonate within our own body-mind-spirit continuum. There is a very high frequency available to us that, when attuned to, can raise the vibrational frequency of cellular oscillations. It is the spirit of the Creators’ world.

Resonance occurs in music. For example, the musical pitch F, when sounded, sets in motion the overtones and undertones A and C, along with an infinite number of other overtones and undertones.

Resonance also occurs in the vibrational terrain of the heart and the mind.  For example, when someone speaks, the words convey meaning and intention, both of which are vibrational in nature.  When such words are heard by a listener, “heart strings” and “mindsets” are struck and resonate with the words of the speaker, along with the subliminal intention they convey.

Resonance is happening when we laugh, and tear up.  We have a “funny or silly bone” that resonates with the tone of a joke or comedian’s act — as well as a tender place that is touched by a beautiful scene, or an act of compassion and extraordinary kindness and generosity by someone.

Just think of the scene of Tim Conway and Harvey Korman on the Carol Burnett Show in the dental office, in which Tim accidentally stabs himself with the Novocain syringe paralyzing his arm and leg. Brings a smile on my face just thinking of the scene? That’s resonance.

Sound-based language has an immediate resonant effect and impact upon the vibrational terrain of human activity without mental interpretation. Music is a prime example of sound-based language; it’s a universal language. The Aramaic, when spoken, is another good example of sound-based language. It’s the language that Jesus spoke with the peasants.

The Aramaic Prayer of Jesus has emerged from out of the past and been revived and set to music and danced to.  I’ve learned to articulate it and it was quite easy to wrap my tongue around it.  I frequently say the Aramaic prayer during an attunement session.  Here is a rendition of the prayer by the San Antonio Vocal Arts Ensemble. (Be sure to listen to the music after the prayer.)

English translation of the Aramaic Lord’s Prayer

Oh Birther! Father-Mother of the Cosmos, Focus your light within us. Create your reign of unity now. Your one desire then acts with ours, As in all light, so in all forms. Grant what we need each day in bread and insight. Loose the cords of mistakes binding us, As we release the strands we hold of others’ guilt. Don’t let surface things delude us, But free us from what holds us back. From You is born all ruling will, the power and the life to do, The song that beautifies all, from age to age it renews. Truly – power to these statements – may they be the ground from which all our actions grow. Amen. 

RESONANCE IN OUR ATTUNEMENT WORK

PREMESIS: The Seven Spirits named by Uranda are, in essence, vibrational frequencies—music, in other words—inaudible music composed and orchestrated by the invisible light, the Light of Love, the true Music of the Spheres.  This is the nature of the Chakra as well. They are energy vortices that emit tones, which I’ve discovered harmonize with the tones of the endocrine centers.

The seven vibrational, or spiritual, essences manifesting and orchestrating the biochemical functions of the seven endocrine glands, nourishing the glands themselves, are sensitive to audible sound and visible light and color, and respond to such by the principle of resonance.

It is my innate sensing that the “Spirit” of each endocrine center is invoked and summoned forth by sound vibrations based on the principle of resonance. That invocation is partly in response to the musical tones of the Chakras.

I firmly believe that this is why and how we enjoy beautiful music, which is sometimes capable of lifting us into a state of rapturous ecstasy.  For me it is God listening and enjoying the music through me.  Or, rather, I am God enjoying beautiful music. The endocrine glands produce their hormonal chemistry that shapes how we feel physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually as we listen to music that resonates in our soul, heard with our ears, as well as with our Chakras.

APPLICATION OF SACRED SOUND: 

As many of you know, I work with sacred sound in my attunement service.  I have found that sound may be used to create a carrier wave for spirit and intention.  I first became aware of this early in my experience of sharing attunement.  The energy in the current resonated in my vocal chords and I had the urge to hum.  When I did, the texture of the energy became smooth like silk.  From that experience, I went on to explore the use of sound in energy healing.

Each endocrine gland resonates to a specific frequency or pitch, starting with the pineal gland that resonates to F# and ending with the gonads that resonate to C natural—according to my own perceptions.

The Chakras also resonate to musical pitches, according to Tantric Yoga traditions handed down, which I’ve discovered are the tonic tones that give rise to the corresponding Major Fifth harmonic frequency, or pitch, of the spiritual energy focused and expressing in and through the endocrine glands.

For example, the Crown Chakra resonates to a B natural pitch, which is the tonic tone – the Do – of the Pineal gland’s harmonic Major Fifth tone F#. (do B, mi D#, sol F#)

A full list of musical intervals between the Chakras and the Endocrine centers are published in my book Attunement With Sacred Sound, available for $35 plus postage and handling on Amazon.com.

OVERTONES, UNDERTONES AND CYMATICS

Keep in mind that overtones and undertones are set in motion by these pitches as well as they play upon a vast array of tissue cells throughout the body temple.

I can only imagine the cymatic configurations created in the atomic substance that make up the fabric of our anatomy and physiology.  Mending of broken parts and renewal of old parts take place.  New earth is thusly created.

Cymatics, as you are likely aware, is the phenomenon of sacred geometrical shapes and patterns that sound frequencies produce in matter, such as water.

Our bodies being composed largely of water, some 85% of it, one can only envision the impact sound has on and in them.  Here is a clip of Anna-Maria Hefele demonstrating polyphonic overtone chant.

SCHUMANN RESONANCES

Mother Earth’s natural heartbeat rhythm is the frequency of 7.83 Hz, also known as the “Schumann Resonance”.

The Schumann resonances (SR) are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low frequency (ELF) portion of the Earth‘s electromagnetic field spectrum. Schumann resonances are global electromagnetic resonances, generated and excited by lightning discharges in the cavity formed by the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere.[1]   (Wikipedia)

Schumann Resonances were first documented by Nikola Tesla in 1899. A German physicist named Winfried Schumann studied them extensively and began trying to measure them in the 1950s, and got his name attached to them (although accurate measurements weren’t possible until the 60s—and Tesla’s numbers were right from the start.) The resonances arise from lightning storms—of which there are around 2000 occurring planet-wide at any given moment—exciting the cavity of air between the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere. Acoustically speaking, life on Earth arises and exists within a room whose boundaries are these. Due to the ongoing nature of the storms, this torus-shaped expanse that encases us is forever singing, like a wine glass forever flicked by the finger of fate. The fundamental frequency of that song, the do of its tonality, is, on average with slight variations, 7.83 Hz: the fundamental Schumann Resonance. (That’s about 8 trips around the planet per second.)

To say that the fundamental Schumann Resonance has an influence is an understatement: all of life on Earth—including us and our thoughts and feelings—arises within it and its harmonics. That sounds like a world do if I’ve ever heard one—and that’s the frequency associated with C and the Root Chakra in the Muzoracle system. (While 7.83 Hz is far below the range of our hearing, we can hear—and certainly feel—the resonance two octaves higher, at 31.32 Hz; three octaves higher than that we find our middle C at 250.56 Hz.)  (Muzoracle.com)

Everything from our brain waves and biorhythms to our states of consciousness are directly correlated to the Earth’s frequencies. “The current Schumann resonance frequency is 7.83 Hz. This is the fundamental frequency, and other harmonics exist at approximately 14.3 Hz, 20.8 Hz, 27.3 Hz, and 33.8 Hz, according to Wikipedia. These frequencies are a set of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic resonances in the Earth-ionosphere cavity. They are primarily excited by lightning discharges according to Patsnap Eureka.”  (Google Search) Ω

There’s a lot to take in and ponder here, so I’ll leave you with your musings. Until my next post. . .

Be love. Be loved.

The Transcendence of Resurrection

THE WAY I SEE IT, Jesus was never not in complete and utter control of his physical body throughout the ordeal of His trial and conviction, the mockery of being crowned with thorns, spit upon and flogged, the carrying of his cross through the streets of Jerusalem “and up to the hill of Golgotha—called the “place of the skull” (KJV, John 19:17-18)—even through the crucifixion and apparent death of His physical body. The silver cord of connection with his body was never loosed or severed. In the end He simply transcended his physical body and rose in consciousness to what spiritual author Joseph Chilton Pearce describes as the “causal body”— with which He may even have had an NDE (Near Death Experience). At least this is the way I see it.

This was not unique to Jesus, as we each have a causal body, only it’s not so much a “body” as an essence of spirit. That spirit, or causal body, is who and what we are, and is not a separate entity from God the Creator, any more than the Son of God was separate from His Heavenly Father. As He truly proclaims in John 10:30, “I and my Father are one.” So is it with each and every incarnate Being. To come to a conscious awareness and actual experience of that oneness with our Creator is the challenge of our earthly journey.

At the age of eighty-four I’ve become peculiarly and intensely interested in transcendence and transfiguration. I wasn’t aware of this interest until I inadvertently withdrew a book from off the shelf of our library and opened it to the author’s final chapters where he addresses what is now the very topic of this blog post: Jesus’s transcendent experience, otherwise called and celebrated as his “Resurrection” from the tomb — where, from all outward signs, his “dead” body was placed, wrapped in a shroud of white cloth, anointed with precious healing oils and laid to rest. What occurred after Joseph of Arimathea and a few women had laid his limp body to rest in the tomb, rolling a stone over its entrance, is a process I am compelled from within my heart to meditate upon and explore in a series of posts.

The Holy Shroud of Turin, with its scorched image of Jesus’s entire body imprinted on it, provides ample cause to contemplate what awful transmuting fire must have moved through His body to resurrect the living currents of vital energy that could lift it up to a higher vibrational level of manifestation. His resurrection was at the same time clearly a supernatural and a biological event of transcendence and transmutation.

RISE AND SHINE!

Yes, indeed, shine your light! But you first must rise! To “rise” is another matter altogether. It’s a required step toward shining. In a transcendent state, to which we all aspire, one’s light is found to have always been shining — only not outwardly — until one rises up in consciousness and identity to the level of one’s “causal” body where one’s radiance is the light of one’s world.

I can easily relate to Joseph Chilton Pearce’s perspective of “bodies within bodies”: physical, subtle and causal. From my own spiritual path the word “pneumaplasm,” coined by Lloyd A. Meeker (Uranda), serves my understanding best as descriptive of the “subtle” body. The “causal” body lives and moves independent of the physical and subtle bodies, whereas the subtle body, or pneumaplamic body, is generated out of the physical body as the causal body of spirit expresses its divine qualities with feeling, thought and action of a benevolent quality. Spiritual expression brings about the release of the transforming power of love — the only way open to human beings today as the physical and mental approaches failed miserably.

Again, my spiritual path defines the “causal body” simply as “spirit.” Spirit is divine in nature. Physical and subtle bodies are by nature human. The two are brought together when spirit incarnates and transmits its godly characteristics and benevolent qualities to the human person for expression. Patterns of design and control for the unfolding of one’s earthly journey are also established in the subtle body (pneumaplasm) for the execution of dominion over one’s world. Not domination but dominion.

The word “dominion” derives from the Latin for “lord”: dominus. Dominion is exercised by the lord incarnate whose “body” (of sorts) is causal by divine design, exercising dominion over the physical body, and by way of the body over ones world, in a benevolent, loving, non-imposing manner. Domination, to the contrary, is exercised by the human ego that has taken possession of one’s mental faculty in order to force its contriving and self-serving will upon one’s physical body and one’s world. It’s an apt model of David Hawkins’ Power VS Force –The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior.” They’re not so hidden to one who has risen in consciousness and in identity to the level of spirit in one’s causal body — causal in the sense of creator and designer of the physical body.

“I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD.”

Prince of Peace

The Master Jesus spoke those words just before his passion and crucifixion on Calvary. His exact words as recorded in John 16:33 are, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”  He transcended His physical body and maintained His identity with His causal body, which in his case was and is our Lord and King, the “Only Begotten Son of God.” Having complete control over His physical body via His subtle body, He did not let it die. The Only begotten Son of the Father was not sacrificed for the sins of the world, a rationalization Paul later contrived, nor for any other purpose rationalized subsequently in Christian dogma. He overcame death by not dying. He then proceeded to raise up his comatose physical body, transmute it to a higher vibration so as to fuse it with His causal body, His very Being, and return to His Father in Heaven — after spending forty days with His disciples eating and drinking with them and bestowing upon them His benediction of love and comfort. These things of spirit are beyond space and time. They are truly and literally timeless.

There is much to share along these lines revisiting Joseph Chilton Pearce’s THE BIOLOGY OF TRANSCENDENCE ~ A Blueprint of the Human Spirit — author of THE CRACK IN THE COSMIC EGG. The book is filled with quotable passages that have the ability to bring about a radical shift in perspective. His chosen character on which to shine light is Jesus himself and his passion and compassion, as the following excerpt demonstrates.

I like the way he speaks his truth. I’ll share more along these lines in my next post of this series. Until then, have a Happy Easter Day.

TRANSMUTATION at the CROSSOVER POINT

Before we get into the main body of this post, I will share a comment from my good friend Chris Jorgensen of the International Association of Attunement Practitioners (IAAP) referencing my last post.

* * *

If, as I am perceiving, the planet and all who live on it are well into the transmutation energy, then complete and utter change is underway. Everything below the crossover point – the outer three dimensions – is shifting, the human capacity (its DNA makeup), one’s closest relationships (family and spouses), our beliefs (every conceivable spiritual religion and philosophy), and certainly the collective materialistic paradigm we all share. And there is more…in the US in particular.

While the human ego cannot see it, the energy of the larger world picture has changed over the last number of years, in my sensing especially since 2012. Today, conscious human beings are present and with that appearance the planet shifted into a new vibration – more into transmutation energy than transformation. The larger collective is starting to awaken. The current form of world governments providing direction and control in the experience of humanity – including the US – is no longer viable. The old approaches (pacts, politics, agreements and treaties) are not up to the task of accommodating what is required to let the new vibration of Love’s Radiation be present. The old structure(s) must dissolve so a new vibrationally fitting formation can emerge (think cymatics). And the challenge is we have human forms that are in the middle of this process!

* * *

THE LAST SENTENCE in Chris’s comment is what I will address in this post. Transmutation of our physical bodies is simply an upgrade in the vibrational frequency of its cells. I have personally experienced such an upgrade, and I intend to share that experience in my next post. What follows is a reposting of one on my blog articles from a series on the demystification of the process of transmutation from a scientific perspective. Tighten your seatbelt for an exciting if bumpy ride.

* * *

PROCEEDING TO THE FINAL two misconceptions our featured author and science mentor, Walter Russell, rectifies in his book A NEW CONCEPT of the UNIVERSE, this excerpt reminds me of a quip uttered by a friend and attunement colleague: “Nothing’s wrong. Everything matters.” Used as a verb, if you will, the word “matters” would mean materializes or manifests.

The flip side of this coined quip could read “Nothing’s wrong, everything un-matters,” as in dis-integrates, in the life/transmutation cycle in this “Creating Universe,” as Russell calls it, implying that there is no beginning nor ending to God’s eternal Creation, as energy — which is what everything is — cannot be created nor uncreated or destroyed. The Universe of Light is as eternal as its Creator. Let’s hear what Dr. Russell has to say about matter. Does anything really “matter” or is it all an illusion? Hmmm.

* * *

MISCONCEPTION OF MATTER ~ Now you see it. Now you don’t!

4. Electric matter is but a mirror which reflects qualities outside itself to simulate those qualities within itself.

Walter Russell

In the Mind of any creator of any product is the IDEA of the formed body which Mind desires to produce. Also the knowledge, energy and method of production are in the Mind of the creator of that product and not in the product. The architect does not say that the energy, idea, or construction methods are in the temple of his conceiving, nor should man say that they are in the temple of God’s conceiving.

To thus claim that energy is a property of matter is to deprive The Creator of His omnipotence and omniscience. The entire universe manifests power, but the universe is not the power which it manifests.

Not one particle of matter which constitutes the material body of any product can move of itself. It can move only through desire and command of the Mind of its creator extended to it electrically.

The powers of “attraction” and “repulsion” which science mistakenly attributes to matter are electrical effects performing their one and only function of dividing an equilibrium into two opposing conditions, which extend equally from a dividing equator. The magnetic Light controls the balance of these two opposing conditions which interchange two ways in their endeavor to void their opposing conditions, but the stresses and strains which seem to make matter attract and repel matter are electric effects.

Electric effects of motion can be insulated from each other — but the magnetic Light of The Creator, which causes those effects, cannot be insulated from matter by matter.

All matter is electric. Electricity conditions all matter under the measured control of the ONE MAGNETIC LIGHT which forever balances the TWO electrically-divided, conditioned lights of matter and space.

Divided matter strains to find balance in the zero of equilibrium from which it was divided. The senses of man are mightily deceived by the illusions of appearance which cause him to conclude otherwise.

Newton’s apple was not attracted to the ground by gravitation. The high potential condition of that solid apple sought a similar high potential condition. That is to say it “fell” toward the earth to fulfill Nature’s law of like seeking like.

Had Newton sat with the apple for a week or two he would have seen that same apple “rise” unto the heavens as a low potential gas seeking a like low potential position to balance its electrically-divided state. The “rising” of the decaying, expanding apple again fulfills Nature’s law of like seeking like.

All polarizing bodies add to their densities and potentials. The apple which fell to the ground was a polarized body. All polarized bodies must reverse their polarities and depolarize. They then lose their densities and potentials. The depolarized apple returned to the zero of its beginning.

The Newtonian law is in this respect invalid because it accounts for but one half of the apple’s growth-decay cycle. This is a two-way universe of opposed effects of motion — not a one-way Universe.

Misconception of Substance in Matter

5. Sense of observation has led to the erroneous conclusion that there are 92 different substances of matter.

This universe is substance-less. It consists of motion only. Motion simulates substance by the control of its opposing wave pressures of motion which deceive the senses into seeing substance where motion alone is. The senses do not reach beyond the illusion of motion, nor do those who believe that they can gain knowledge of the secrets of this vast make-believe universe even faintly comprehend the unreality of this mirage of polarized light-in-motion which they so firmly believe is real.

Motion is two-way, for all motion is caused by the division of an equilibrium, and its extension in two opposite directions to create the two opposite conditions of pressures necessary to make motion imperative.

One of these two conditions of electric motion thrusts inward toward a center to create a centripetal vortex to simulate gravity. On the other side of the dividing equator, the other condition thrusts outward from a center to create a centrifugal. vortex to simulate vacuity.

Moving waves of oppositely-conditioned matter simulate substance, but there is no substance to the motion which simulates IDEA in matter. If a cobweb could move fast enough, it would simulate a solid steel disc — and it could cut through steel. If such a thing could happen it would not be the “substance” of the cobweb which cut through the steel — it would be the motion which cut it.

Fast-moving short waves simulate solids, while slow-moving long waves simulate the gases of space which surround solids. Waves of motion are substance-less, however. They merely simulate substance.

Motion itself is controlled by the Mind of the Creator Who uses it to express His desire for simulating IDEA of Mind by giving it a formed body. There is no other purpose for motion.

Desire in the Light of Mind for creative expression is the only energy in this universe. All motion is Mind motivated. All motion records Mind thoughts in matter.

All matter is but pressure-conditioned motion. Varying pressure conditions yield varying states of motion. Varying states of motion are what science misinterprets as the elements of matter.

Varying pressures in a wave are tonal.  In each octave wave there are four pairs of tones, each of which has the same relative position in its octave color spectrum as it has in its octaves of chemical elements. Waves are, therefore, electric pressure-conditioned octaves of tone.

ELECTRICAL VORTICES OF ENEGETIC WAVES

This graphic from Russell’s book demonstrates how electrical currents spin a vortex of energy, a “field” if you will, as bodies of matter are created and un-created and returned to their origin as invisible plasma, or gas.

The crossover point is at the equator where Light abides in stillness offering control to the movement of atoms and providing a fulcrum for balancing the opposing actions of radiation and gravitation. (Another word for gravitation is response or attraction.) It’s also the place of greatest pressure, as well as the point of transmutation.

AS BELOW SO ABOVE

What manifests and takes shape in the explicate order under the heaven reflects Life’s design for forms in the implicate order of the heaven. There is only One Law governing the Creative Process: Radiation–Response–Attraction–Union–Unified Radiation. This law governs the electric universe at all levels, including and especially at the level where Man was created to live and function at the crossover point between Heaven and Earth as co-creator with God. The substance of connection between Man and Creator is the medium through which the Tone of the Word that creates Life on Earth is propagated so as to be perceptible by Man and re-sounded in the expression of his living. That medium is the rarified substance of pheumaplasm (spirit substance).

Pneumaplasm is the silvery substance comprising the plasma chord of connection between the Angel and his/her incarnating human capacity. Essentially it is transmuted flesh generated by the movement of the Spirit of God in expression through body, mind and heart. The flow of Spirit, of the substance of Love, enters the body by way of the heart as it is open in love response to the Spirit of God — as Handle celebrated in his MESSIAH: Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting portals, that the King of glory may come in.” — and as the Lord of Love commanded when he gave us the First Great Commandment.

Chris recently penned a succinct description of the crossover point in a context relating to Attunement:

“The crossover point is the sacred place where the Radiation of Being is consciously known and shared. It is the point where Love is made visible. It is Assurance in divine Presence. The current vibration of the world is the Spirit of Purification, the crossover point – the energy, frequency and radiation of the Heart-Thymus. It is a singular point where Heaven and Earth meet.

The electric technology for the transmutation and ascension of flesh to a higher vibrational state, and for the generation of spiritualized atomic substance, is already in place. All one need do is come into the place of greatest pressure and greatest stillness at the crossover point of no magnitude between Heaven and Earth and look up in utter love and abandon and say — with all of one’s heart and with all of one’s mind and with all of one’s strength — “I love you my LORD God” — and never leave that place of stillness. Live in the place of attunement with the tone of that love response upward and the outward flow of life will continually be strong and radiant. Transmutation is natural.

As always, I welcome any thoughts you may wish to share either in the comment feature or by email. Until my next post,

Be love. Be loved

Fields Within Fields

If you are thirsty, the river comes to you. If you are not thirsty there is no river.” ~Sat Prem

THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION as it opens a portal to understanding the importance of our individual actions ~ emotional, mental and physical ~ in shaping the world of tomorrow, as well as our collective actions as a Body of Human Beings in shaping our future. The author I will be sharing with you, Joseph Chilton Pearce, published his research back in 2003 in THE BIOLOGY OF TRANSCENDENCE ~ A Blueprint of the Human Spirit, from which the following excerpt is taken.

THOUGHTS AND ACTIONS STRENGTHEN FIELDS

Thom Hartmann wrote that his mentor and teacher, Gottfried Muller, urged him to look for secret acts of compassion he could perform, acts that would be personal, private, and unobserved. An act of compassion done publicly is done for public acclaim, no matter how subtly or covertly that acclaim is accepted by the actor. [Well, not necessarily always.] Further, this public acclaim is the actor’s reward. Performed in absolute secrecy for the sake of compassion itself, a private compassionate act strengthens the field of compassion — a field that is sadly absent from our planet. [It’s not completely absent since this book was first published in 2003. The Dali Lama and his disciples have done much to create and feed this field.] Jesus contrasted the widow’s mite, given in secrecy, with the alms-giving of the powerful Pharisee who was preceded by trumpeters on his way to temple so that his magnificent gesture of largesse and virtue might be observed by all. “He has his reward,” noted Jesus. The reward, of course, was merely the public acclaim and subsequent ego-inflation.

Interaction between people is public and its own marvelous game, but that between a person and a field is private and hidden, in a secret place — and perhaps a larger, more embracing game in the end. Every negative thought I entertain in my head, which I think is my own secret place, actually strengthens the negative field that sweeps our world, unbeknownst to me — the secret negative thought is shouted from the housetops. Every time I bemoan the negative world out there that I must suffer, I have supported and contributed to it through my moaning. My secret place in my head is not so secret after all.

Our heart participates in electromagnetic fields within fields nestled in hierarchies that are holographic, the whole existing within any part, and all functioning as an integrated dynamic . . . . “the most suggestive evidence for the coherence of the organism is our discovery, in 1992, that all living organisms are liquid crystalline.” [Biologist Mae Wan Ho, “The Entangled Universe”].

Coherence, in this context, refers to the fact that trillions of cells and the myriad parts comprising them function together as a unit to produce the mysterious and magnificent whole called me. . . . We are not just specimens of research material on the microscope’s slide but are, in fact, what all this research is about. . . .

Mae Wan Ho continues: “In the breathtaking color images we generated, one can see that the activities of the organism are fully coordinated in a continuum from the macroscopic to the molecular. The organism is coherent beyond our wildest dreams. Every part is in com-munication with every other part through a dynamic, tunable, responsive liquid crystalline medium that pervades the whole body, from organs and tissues to the interior of every cell. Liquid crystalline gives organisms their characteristic flexibility, exquisite sensitivity and responsiveness, thus optimizing the rapid intercom-munication that enables the organism to function as a coherent whole.”

When coherent, this polyglot of flesh, blood, sweat, and tears has dominion over the word, naming animals and stars, the parts of our own innards and atoms, and is the source of poetry and song. . . .

Mae Wan Ho observes: “The visible body just happens to be where the wave function of the organism is most dense. Invisible quantum waves are spreading out from each of us and permeating into all other organisms. At the same time, each of us has the wave of every other organism entangled within our own make-up. . . . We are participants in the creation drama that is constantly unfolding. We are constantly co-creating ourselves and other organisms in the universe, shaping our common futures, making our dreams come true, and realizing our potentials and ideals.”

“Forbidden knowledge” is held sacrosanct by universities, academies, and professional societies, who punish trespassers in subtle ways while awarding the “liturgists” with scholastic degrees, funds and fellowships — and determine exactly what they are allowed to know. Mae Wan Ho and Lynn Margulis represent a growing wave of new biologists who break beyond the boundaries to lift the field of biology into new dimensions. This is a growth the guardians of the old boundaries resist, as is typical of all institutions.

FIELDS OF POTENTIAL

Use of the word field indicates a habit of our mind to group disparate events, to create from them one unity, a mental category, a taxonomy that lifts the apparent chaos of nature into the order of our thinking. There is a medical field, a field of education, a field of knowledge, the orbital or wave field of a particle, a field of potential energy, neural fields of the brain, fields of stars. All mental, physical, emotional, psychic, religious, spiritual, non-ordinary, or ordinary experience originates as and/or brings about a field.

Fields as artifacts of memory or repositories of experience become sources of potential, creations of thought by which we explain our creations to ourselves, or dream up new creations. No field could be bound into a finite system, yet our intellect, once it creates a field, continually tries to establish final boundaries for it. As Rudolf Steiner and poet-philosopher Goethe pointed out, the human mind, as a field effect, is unbounded. There are no limitations to what thought can do, where it can lead, and we ceaselessly strive to discover the full dimensions of self and define that infinite mind.

For instance, our many definitions of God and any explanations we offer concerning him (or her, or it) are, by and large, projections we make as a result of our longing to bring closure to this open-ended procedure. “The son of Man has no place to lay his head,” our great model observed, a point ignored by that force of mind that longs to bring all things to closure — [to conceptualize everything].

The potential of a field manifests or expresses — presses outward — only through a corresponding neural field (or fields) in our brain. A neural field is an aggregate of particular frequencies and preset us with a valid perception or event. Neural fields are worthless without fields of potential frequencies that they can translate into experience, and potential frequencies are worthless without neural fields to translate them into being. These two field categories give rise to each other — another creator-created dynamic — though which comes first will never be determined.

It’s important to note that fields don’t exist as entities, except as ideas of mind. A “field potential” exists only as a dynamic interaction with a neural field in our head — dynamic here meaning that the action moves both ways, from field to field, from potential to perception and response of the perceiver, then back to the field.

A neuron is made of matter, however flimsy, and matter is an aggregate of particular frequencies, no matter how elusive. Frequencies aggregate in a way that translates other frequencies into a resonant response that is even more elusive and inexplicable: consciousness itself. Physicist David Bohm spoke of consciousness expressing as matter and/or energy.

The meaning of consciousness has been up for grabs for a long time and remains just as elusive as that of mind. Brain, and so brain-mind, is more tangible. With some hundred billion neurons, each of which can connect with upwards of a hundred thousand others in mixtures of field interactions, and a trillion or more glia pumping frequencies to be translated, there are no limits to our brain’s capacity to create experience. And if you recall, there are no limits to the fields available for these constructions because the same brain can create fields to be translated. We really do reap as we sow, whether or not we are aware of it, though much sowing takes place beneath our awareness.

Fields of information and intelligence are built up through activities among people, and any number of people can take part in these frequency fields. Occasionally the same discovery is made in the same field — say, mathematics chemistry, or mechanics — by two individuals on opposite sides of the globe who know nothing of each other. Mae Wan Ho refers to this continuum in her own language and brings into being liquid crystals, invisible quantum wave functions, and other hitherto unknowns. None of us knows precisely what we are talking about, but we are compelled to try to describe and explain to ourselves the magic of our minds.

(Excerpted from THE BIOLOGY OF TRANSCEDENCE ~ A Blueprint of the Human Spirit, by Joseph Chilton Pearce, author of The Crack in the Cosmic Egg.)

THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM

Authors like Pearce speak of the mind as though it were a self-activated entity, on its own creating whatsoever it desires, as this phrase demonstrates: “…there are no limits to our brain’s capacity to create experience.” While I get his appreciation for the mind’s seemingly limitless magical capacity in creating experience, let us not overlook the elephant in the room: the presence of an incarnate sovereign Creator Being, without whom — and without whose body — the mind cannot exist at all much less create. The human intellect is only a capacity not a creator. In its self-active state, it has been a serpent and a deceiver. In its ordained role, it is a luciferous bearer of the Light of Truth, once called Lucifer, Morning Star, and Son of the Morning (Isaiah 14:12). Theologians and Christian scholars speculate that Lucifer desired not only to be like God but to be God and rule heaven and earth, so he was expelled from heaven and cast down to the earth — where he is free to play God among humans unaware and utterly deceived — a state in which it seems the masses prefer to live out their lives.

I am not my mind. Like you and like all incarnate angels, I Am a Creator Being incarnate in a triune human capacity of a body-mind-heart continuum which I created in my own image and likeness in order that I may accomplish the work I came here to do for my Lord and King, and that work entails co-creating a world with other Creator Beings that mirrors and manifests the Divine Design in God’s Heaven for our world. This is not the mind-set and state of consciousness out of which by far the majority of human beings function. The state out of which most function is one of self-centeredness and mental self-activity — a state we must transcend, rise above, and join hands with our brothers and sisters in co-creating the New Earth. We must accept the truth and the fact that we are one Humanity sharing a common Home among the stars — for which we are privileged to “dress and keep” for our Lord and King, whose world this is.

Until my next post, Be love. Be loved.

SACRED ANATOMY~ FOURTH EDITION

The fourth edition of SACRED ANATOMY ~ Temple of the Living God has made its debut and is now available from my publisher and on Amazon Books. Have a look inside on Amazon and read about it in the press release below. This is a journey through your body temple that will change forever the way you view and think about your physical body.

The Transcendence of Resurrection

THE WAY I SEE IT, Jesus was never not in complete and utter control of his physical body throughout the ordeal of His trial and conviction, the mockery of being crowned with thorns, spit upon and flogged, the carrying of his cross through the streets of Jerusalem and up to the hill of Golgotha, even through the crucifixion and apparent death of His physical body. The silver cord of connection with his body was never loosed or severed. In the end He simply transcended his physical body and rose in consciousness to what spiritual author Joseph Chilton Pearce describes as the “causal body”— with which He may even have had an NDE (Near Death Experience). At least this is the way I see it.

This was not unique to Jesus, as we each have a causal body, only it’s not so much a “body” as an essence of spirit. That spirit is who we are, and it is not a separate entity from God the Creator, any more than the Son of God was separate from His Heavenly Father. As He truly proclaimed in John10:30: “I and my Father are one.” So is it with each and every incarnate Being. To come to a conscious awareness and actual experience of that oneness with our Creator is the challenge of our earthly journey.

At the age of eighty-four I’ve become peculiarly and intensely interested in transcendence. I wasn’t aware of this interest until I inadvertently withdrew a book from off the shelf of our library and opened it to the author’s final chapters where he addresses what is now the very topic of this blog post: Jesus’s transcendent experience, otherwise called and celebrated as his “Resurrection” from the tomb — where, from all outward signs, his “dead” body was placed, wrapped in a shroud of white cloth, anointed with precious healing oils and laid to rest. What occurred after Joseph of Arimathea and a few women had laid his limp body to rest in the tomb, rolling a stone over its entrance, is a process I am compelled from within my heart to meditate upon and explore in a series of posts.

The Holy Shroud of Turin, with its scorched image of Jesus’s entire body imprinted on it, provides ample cause to contemplate what awful transmuting fire must have moved through His body to resurrect the living currents of vital energy that could lift it up to a higher vibrational level of manifestation. His resurrection was at the same time clearly a supernatural and a biological event of transcendence and transmutation.

RISE AND SHINE!

Yes, indeed, shine your light! But you first must rise! To “rise” is another matter altogether. It’s a required step toward shining. In a transcendent state, to which we all aspire, one’s light is found to have always been shining — only not outwardly — until one rises up in consciousness and identity to the level of one’s “causal” body where one’s radiance is the light of one’s world.

I can easily relate to Joseph Chilton Pearce’s perspective of “bodies within bodies”: physical, subtle and causal. From my own spiritual path the word “pneumaplasm,” coined by Lloyd A. Meeker (Uranda), serves my understanding best as descriptive of the “subtle” body. The “causal” body lives and moves independent of the physical and subtle bodies, whereas the subtle body, or pneumaplamic body, is generated out of the physical body as the causal body of spirit expresses its divine qualities with feeling, thought and action of a benevolent quality. Spiritual expression brings about the release of the transforming power of love — the only way open to human beings today as the physical and mental approaches failed miserably.

Again, my spiritual path defines the “causal body” simply as “spirit.” Spirit is divine in nature. Physical and subtle bodies are by nature human. The two are brought together when spirit incarnates and transmits its godly characteristics and benevolent qualities to the human person for expression. Patterns of design and control for the unfolding of one’s earthly journey are also established in the subtle body (pneumaplasm) for the execution of dominion over one’s world. Not domination but dominion.

The word “dominion” derives from the Latin for “lord”: dominus. Dominion is exercised by the lord incarnate whose “body” (of sorts) is causal by divine design, exercising dominion over the physical body, and by way of the body over ones world, in a benevolent, loving, non-imposing manner. Domination, to the contrary, is exercised by the human ego that has taken possession of one’s mental faculty in order to force its contriving and self-serving will upon one’s physical body and one’s world. It’s an apt model of David Hawkins’ Power VS Force –The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior.” They’re not so hidden to one who has risen in consciousness and in identity to the level of spirit in one’s causal body — causal in the sense of creator and designer of the physical body.

“I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD.”

Prince of Peace

The Master Jesus spoke those words just before his passion and crucifixion on Calvary. His exact words as recorded in John 16:33 are, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”  He transcended His physical body and maintained His identity with His causal body, which in his case was and is our Lord and King, the “Only Begotten Son of God.” Having complete control over His physical body via His subtle body, He did not let it die. The Only begotten Son of the Father was not sacrificed for the sins of the world, a rationalization Paul later contrived, nor for any other purpose rationalized subsequently in Christian dogma. He overcame death by not dying. He then proceeded to raise up his comatose physical body, transmute it to a higher vibration so as to fuse it with His causal body, His very Being, and return to His Father in Heaven — after spending forty days with His disciples eating and drinking with them and bestowing upon them His benediction of love and comfort. These things of spirit are beyond space and time. They are truly and literally timeless.

There is much to share along these lines revisiting Joseph Chilton Pearce’s THE BIOLOGY OF TRANSCENDENCE ~ A Blueprint of the Human Spirit — author of THE CRACK IN THE COSMIC EGG. The book is filled with quotable passages that have the ability to bring about a radical shift in perspective. His chosen character on which to shine light is Jesus himself and his passion and compassion, as the following excerpt demonstrates.

I like the way he speaks his truth. I’ll share more along these lines in my next post of this series. Until then, have a Happy Easter Day.

The “Rainbow Body” of Light

AS PROMISED, here is the excerpt from the last chapter of my book SACRED ANATOMY. I am also pleased to announce that both of my books — Sacred Anatomy and Attunement with Sacred Sound — are now available online at the Amazon Bookstore. You can also order directly from my publisher, Wise Publications, online at http://www.wisepublications.biz. Check out the listing, place an order, and spread the word!

The subject of this post may not seem relevant to current global events — with wars waging in the Middle East and in the Ukraine, and several other places, and numerous other existential crises looming on the horizon — and that’s how it should be to perhaps serve as a reprieve from worries over turbulent world events.

It is relevant ,however, to the evolution of human consciousness and subsequent transformation and transmutation currently underway that are bringing about radical changes in our human capacities. We may not be headed in the direction this consideration suggests and even implies. However, our physical bodies are undergoing a steady process of transformation and transmutation into translucent “light bodies.” So, as per the instruction, “Let your light so shine . . . .” Enjoy!

TIBETAN BUDDHISTS practice the “Rainbow Body,” the apparent dematerialization and transmutation of the physical body. The practice may be spread out over many years of meditation until the actual transfiguration is achieved — although more as a gift of spirit than an achievement of mental effort.  A Biblical passage tells of a “transfiguration” of Jesus wherein he appeared in a glorious form with Moses and Elijah in the presence of three of his disciples, and another of his glorified body being resurrected from the grave.  What follows here may give us some inkling of the potential inherent in our own sacred anatomy.

The Sufi call it “the most sacred body” and the “supracelestial body.” Taoists call it “the diamond body,” and those who have attained it are called “the immortals” and “the cloud walkers.” In various other traditions it is called by such descriptive names as “the divine body” (Trantric yoga), “the body of bliss” (Kriya yoga), “the superconductive body” (Zoroastrian Vendanta), “the luminous body or being” (ancient Egypt), “the radiant body” (Gnosticism), “the perfect body” (Mithraic liturgy), “the immortal body” (Hermetic Corpus), and “the Golden Body” (Emerald Tablets of the alchemical tradition). —(Wilcock, The Source Field Investigations.)

Here is a description of the process taken from Dream Yoga and the Practice of Natural Light by Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche and reprinted in David Wilcock’s book, The Source Field Investigations.

This is one of many depictions of the Rainbow Body from Tibet: Body of Light: Tibetan, ja-lus.  Also known as the “rainbow body.”  Certain realized beings . . . achieve the transformation of their ordinary bodies into a Body of Light. . . . In this process the physical body dissolves into its natural state, which is that of Clear Light.  As the elements of the body are purified, they transform from their gross manifestation (body, flesh, bones, etc.) into their pure essence as the five colors: blue, green, white, red and golden yellow.  As the body dissolves into these five colors a rainbow is formed, and all that remains of the physical body are fingernails and hair. . . .

Over 160,000 documented cases of the Rainbow Body have occurred in Tibet and China alone.  David Wilcock cites a most extraordinary event that took place in Kham, a small village in Tibet, in 1998, when a Gelugpa monk, Khenpo A-chos, died leaving nothing of his earthly form behind.  He was described as having . . .

. . . a warm, spiritual nature that touched everyone he met. . . . he often spoke of the importance of cultivating compassion. He had the ability to teach even the roughest and toughest of types how to be a little gentler, a little more mindful. . . . The witnesses reported a rainbow appearing over Khenpo A-chos’s hut a few days before he died, and that “dozens of rainbows appeared in the sky afterward.  He was not sick and nothing appeared to be wrong with him — he simply chanted a mantra.

According to the eyewitnesses, after his breath stopped his flesh became kind of pinkish. One person said it turned brilliant white. All said it started to shine. Lama A-chos suggested wrapping his friend’s body in a yellow robe, the type all Gelug monks wear. As the days passed, they maintained they could see, through the robe, that his bones and his body were shrinking. They also heard beautiful, mysterious music coming from the sky, and they smelled perfume. After seven days, they removed the yellow cloth, and no body remained. Lama Norta and a few other individuals claimed that after his death Khenpo A-chos appeared to them in visions and dreams … Lama A-chos told Tiso that it takes sixty years of intensive practice to achieve the rainbow body. “Whether it always takes that long, I don’t know,” acknowledges Tiso, “but we would like to be able to incorporate, in a respectful way, some of these practices into our own Western philosophical and religious traditions.” … To our knowledge, says Tiso, the bodies of most Christian saints did not disappear or shrink after their deaths …. However, he adds, bodily ascensions are mentioned in the Bible and other traditional texts for Enoch, Mary, Elijah, and possibly Moses. And there are numerous stories of saints materializing after their death, similar to the widespread phenomenon known as the “light- body.” 

As I say, time was when we could “fly over the rainbow.” There was a design in place for such spirit and soul travel. That design was lost, along with the Garden State, and had not been present on earth for many thousands of years when the Lord of Love incarnated on Earth. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that it was human consciousness that got lost. The design did not go anywhere but was hidden in a cloud of mystery for a season until such time that the Sons and Daughters of God would again emerge on Earth through the sons and daughters of Man. That time came with the incarnation of the Lord of Love . . . and continues to this day.

The Lord of Love incarnated with the specific mission of restoring that design on earth as a way by which mankind might be brought back into his Father’s House of many mansions. He referred to it as “the kingdom of heaven” and he did not point to some place up in the sky in some hoped-for “hereafter.” He pointed to the hearts of human beings as portals of entrance into this kingdom. His simple instruction was “Let not your heart be troubled.” Entering into the kingdom of heaven was a frequently repeated theme in his sermons and instructions. His first instruction was that we should “repent” (literally turn around) in order to see that the kingdom of heaven is truly at hand, all around us and right within our own body temples. His commandment and methodology were simple: Love the LORD thy God with all, and thy neighbor as thy Self.

Heaven, then, is not so much a “place” to go to as it is a state of consciousness into which we may ascend, step by step, as the Master Jesus did during his life and ministry.   It is a state into which we may enter any moment we are willing to relinquish our desperate grip on the material world of form and begin living life from out of the world of spirit right here and now, both within us and all around us.  It is the House of God, in which, as He indicated, there are “many mansions.” 

As we saw and explored in some detail, there are specifically seven such mansions, and they all lead to “The Way” upward into the temple of light within these temples of flesh. Within these temples, our sacred anatomy provides us with the hormonal chemistry by which, when activated by the Spirit of Love in expression through our hearts, the Spirit of Truth in expression through our minds, and the Spirit of Life in expression through our bodies, the alchemy of resurrection and ascension is set in motion. The remaining four spirits, moving through the endocrine glands and sacred energy seals, take care of the rest as the body temple is elevated, easily and naturally, back to the vibrational level where it no longer experiences pain, nor suffering, nor death itself, but only life eternal. I believe, and personally know, that this is our destiny.

Heinberg referenced traditions that speak of a rainbow bridge connecting heaven and earth so that incarnate beings could ascend to revitalize themselves and then return to earth. This pattern of renewal continues to manifest itself when we feel the need to take a vacation into the wild country to be close to Mother Nature, or a spiritual retreat to draw closer to God in a place of sanctuary. It manifests powerfully during attunement — and I strongly believe that attunement with sacred sound is a core aspect of the divine technology governing this mechanism of renewal.

As we have seen in depth, we have such a bridge within the sacred anatomy of these flesh temples in the seven endocrine glands that provide a focused grounding for the Seven Spirits before the throne of God. It is the Way the Master was going when he said to his disciples in John 14:2-3:

Much is contained in these poignant words.  At some level we know the Way back to Eden because we were once there.  We walked with God.  We walked together as gods and goddesses and we took part in the creation of Eden.  There is much we know — and are beginning remember — about the forms we once inhabited to walk and play in Eden in an atmosphere of loving kindness and generosity.  For now it suffices to say that these flesh temples are designed for more than simply worshiping God up in His Highest Heaven.  As we have seen, they are designed as transformers to facilitate the very process of ascension through the levels of consciousness and into the kingdom of heaven which, as the Master said more than once, is at hand.

The purpose of all the comings and goings of the great prophets of old, and holy men and women of all times,  indeed of the Lord of Love Himself, was to restore human consciousness to its true state of oneness with God, so that God may have a means for being and acting on Earth.  Once that has occurred — and it is occurring even now — worship of God will be transformed into a continual experience of oneness with God in action on earth.

Today it is fairly widely accepted that the place to truly worship God, whether in the solitude of one’s own sanctuary or in a congregational setting, is at the altar of one’s own heart.  Like Jacob, who, awakening from out of his dream, realized the presence of the divine in human flesh, there is an awakening taking place in the Body of God on Earth to the stark realization that “The Lord is in this place and I knew it not!”, and that the human body is truly a temple wherein the Living God dwells.  Here in these flesh temples is enacted every moment of every day the ceremony of life itself lived daily in this beautiful Cathedral of Gaia, our Earth Mother and Home among the stars.  We are all privileged to be on Earth at this time to finish the work of restoring Eden.  Let us all be about our Father’s business.   ~Fin

REGARDLESS of how it may appear, we are moving in an upward spiraling direction toward the Light of Love which is drawing us, individually and as a collective body, into a conscious state of union with Source. The key to ascension to a higher level of consciousness is to open in love response to that which is higher in spiritual awareness. My point of response upward is to the Lord of Love as I have come to be aware of His Presence in my life and in the world.

The radiation of love now moving as an Attunement Current through many light-workers and into the consciousness and body of humanity, drawing response from the hearts of awakening and aware human beings, is creating an irresistible force of attraction that is drawing together a new Body of Humanity into a state of union, providing a means for the Presence and action of God on Earth — the Great Spirit of the Archangel responsible for this Earth and our solar system. A Field of unified radiation is even now surrounding and encompassing the earth and the entire solar entity, creating a hedge of radiant protection. The Body of Man, now in process of being restored, is become the conscious Temple of the Living God in this corner of the Universe. My heart rejoices in this momentous and historical day which the Lord has made.

Until my next post . . .

Be Love. Be loved

Over the Primordial Rainbow Bridge

IT’S TIME FOR MY BOOK, SACRED ANATOMY, to go further out and into the hands of more people who are awake and burdened with religious scruples of shame and guilt about their bodies, and especially about their sexuality. Having been brought up in a typically large Catholic family and attended seminary in my youthful years of priestly aspirations—and having experienced sexual assault myself by clerics of the Church—I write from the substance of personal experience in that area. Having also been awakened to my authentic divine Self and lived a full life in service to others as a wholistic health practitioner, my writing carries the authority of my personal journey and life of service.

Written in an uplifting tone of love for the truth and beauty of the body and its design and function as a temple of the Living God, the book sheds light on the path out of darkness and confusion and toward enlightenment and freedom of expression of one’s “fully human” living—to borrow a phrase from the profound writings of Episcopal prelate Cynthia Bourgeault, who sheds insightful light on the life and ministry of the Master Jesus as one who lived an exemplary “fully human” life of love.

The featured excerpt is from the final chapter, which conveys the passion that filled my soul when the inspiration arose thirty-five years ago to write and publish the book and send it out to find its own reception . . . echoing these tone-setting words from the Foreword:

I was unsure about the timing of its release at first. But with the assurance and encouragement of friends and family, as well as financial help, the book was written and self-published in 2005 by a local publisher, Wise Publications. As it found fertile ground, seeds of inspiration and insight began to sprout in many whose lives were changed reading it.

It is my prayer that in putting it “out there” again, someone will catch fire and see it published abroad. So, I cast my bread, so-to-speak, upon the waters in this final series of posts on my Healing Tones blog. May all who read my book be blessed and lifted up out of all the depth of confusion and delusion of their soul’s dark night. Now to the feature excerpt from my book . . . .

PATTERNS OF ASCESION ESTABLISHED

According to the Biblical record handed down to us—and there have been other accounts that tell a different story—the Master Jesus lifted his own body temple up out of the tomb of decay and death and into the Garden state of eternal life.

If this did in fact occur, and if he truly is, as the scriptures proclaim, the Supreme Focus of Deity for the body of Mankind, then by his own crucifixion, resurrection and ascension into a glorified state he established the patterns of crucifixion, resurrection and ascension for men and women of all times. What we human beings did to him—and to his physical body particularly—we did to ourselves as a collective body.

As a model of a totally new paradigm for the healing of the gap between God and man, he opened a door in heaven and then proceeded to invite all those who so desire to come and be with him, “that where I am there ye may be also,” not only after death but now while we yet have life and breath.

Obviously humanity has not taken the Lord up on his invitation. There has been no one, to my knowledge anyway, who has ascended up into heaven in a glorified, spiritualized body as the Lord himself did two thousand years ago. We have two accounts in the Old Testament of first Enoch, who “walked with God and God took him,” and then Elijah who “went in a whirlwind to heaven” in a “fiery chariot.”

Whether these incidents were physical ascensions into the Realms of Light, or a figurative way of describing a transformation process by which their human consciousness merged with divine consciousness and they were no longer merely human in their identity and form, as we have explored in considerable depth, the way to that experience is open and available to all of mankind. It is available now and has been for two thousand years—not only to enter into the kingdom of heaven but to inhabit and function in all the levels of being that make up the “many mansions” of the Father’s House. All that is required is that we walk with God along the path that leads thereto.

Jesus walked with God and was about his Father’s business of restoring humanity to the Garden State and not of setting up yet another religion to replace the old ones.  In the Garden of Eden, Man, “naked and unashamed,” walked and talked with the LORD God, and the LORD God with man. Death had not yet been introduced into the creative process by man’s failure to remain in the Garden of Eden.  The cycle of incarnation had to have taken us from some form of birth—no doubt different from what we now know—through life, whatever that entailed and in whatever nature of form we had then, and on to ascension through the various levels of consciousness.  It has even been gleaned from legendary writings, as we considered at the start of this section, that we were once able to travel back and forth between heaven and earth to refresh ourselves with rarefied spiritual nourishment. 

In his haunting book, Memories and Visions of Paradise, a book that always engenders in me a deep sense of deja vu reading it, Richard Heinberg, who devoted a decade to studying Paradise Myths from around the world, explores universal myths of a “Lost Golden Age” when the human spirit was not as earth-bound as it is today.  He writes:

Originally, according to myths of every continent, all humanity was perpetually in the divine presence and continually in harmony with divine will.  The Africans’ insistence that at first God lived on Earth with the people, and the Australians’ memory of the Dreamtime, when the Creator-Heroes walked the land, echo the biblical image of Adam and Eve strolling naked and unashamed in the Garden with God.

Few things in Nature seem more axiomatic than the inevitability of death.  It is remarkable, therefore, that one of the most consistently encountered themes in Paradise myths is that of the original immortality of human beings.  The myths tell us that death is in some sense not natural at all, but rather the result of sin or sorcery . . . a mistake or misdeed on the part of ancestors in the First Age. . . .

According to universal tradition, the original earthly Paradise and the still-existent otherworldly Paradise were at first united, or in any case were in close proximity and communication.  The means of connection is described variously in different cultures—most vividly, perhaps, as a rainbow.  In the traditions of Japan, Australia, and Mesopotamia, the rainbow was seen as a reminder of a bridge that once existed between Heaven and Earth and was accessible to all people.  The seven colors of the rainbow were the seven heavens of Hindu, Mesopotamian, and Judaic religion.  Among the central Asians, shamanic drums were decorated with rainbows symbolizing the shaman’s journey to the Otherworld.   Similarly, the seven levels of the Babylonian ziggurat (stepped pyramid) were painted with the seven colors of the rainbow, and the priest, in climbing its stories, symbolically mounted to the cosmic world of the gods. . . .

The primordial world-bridge is elsewhere remembered as a ladder or a rope.  According to pre-Buddhist traditions, called Bon, there originally existed a rope that bound Earth to Heaven and that was used by the gods to come down to meet human beings.  The first king of Tibet was said to have come down from Heaven by a rope—[a “silver cord” of pneumaplasm?],—and the first Tibetan kings did not die but mounted again into Heaven.  After the Fall and the coming of death, the link between Heaven and Earth was broken.  Once the rope was cut, only spirits could ascend to Heaven; their bodies remained on Earth. . . .

The Polynesians knew the Otherworld as Pulotu, a magical realm in the midst of which grew an immense tree whose leaves supplied all wants.  Following physical death, according to tradition, a stream floated the spirit away to Pulotu.

All floated away together, well and ill-favored, young and old, sound and sick, chiefs and commoners; they must look neither to the right nor left, nor attempt to reach the other side, nor must they look back. Little more than half alive, they floated on until they reached Pulotu, where they bathed in the waters of Vaiola, when all become lively, bright and vigorous, every infirmity vanishing, and even the aged becoming young again.   Everything went on in Pulotu much as in the world of life, except that here their bodies were singularly volatile, so that they were able to ascend at night, becoming luminous sparks, or vapors, revisiting their former homes, but retiring again in early dawn to the bush or to Pulotu. 

We are haunted by ancient memories of Paradise and in our dreams we have visions of that Golden Age when we crossed over the rainbow between heaven and earth.  Song writers have written numerous lyrics to these memories and visions.   From the Wizard of Oz we have that memorable song telling of the longing in the heart to return to a land “somewhere over the rainbow” where “troubles melt like lemon drops” and “dreams really do come true.”

* * *

Why indeed? I believe we will some day. For now, what’s needed are feet on the ground blessing the Earth and the fulness thereof with unconditional love and lasting peace. I welcome your thoughts. Until my next post, “The Rainbow Body,” an intriguing consideration of documented phenomena, I exhort you to . . .

Be love. Be loved.
