Understanding
All is Mind, ALL IS GOD.
The ALL is within all. All is NOT within the ALL.
All truths are but half truths
As above so below. As below so above.
- The world is mental. Nothing in this world is not outside of the mind of the All. You and I, and every person, creature, and thing fathomable in this existence exists purely in the mind of God. As contemporary religions state: God created man in his image. Indeed. IMAGE, however does not mean what it may imply. God created man in his image, as in man too, creates worlds within, expressing them without, and creating and destroying worlds continuosly throughout his existence. Example: When I was a teenager I fantasized everyday that I was in a world famous metal band. I even imagined what my band mates looked like, our band name, our logo, and our instruments. This was a world I created within, a world which I have since destroyed a long time ago. Do you see? All is Mind. Nothing can exist without, until first created within. As within so without. The world itself is merely a creation of God within in which we exist
- As above so below. As within so without. In addition to creating worlds within, so too can you create worlds without. Whether its a world where you are a father of a humble home with a white picket fence, a mature wife who is also the mother of your children, and a nice SUV parked in your humble driveway. Or a world where you are a violent drug abuser who lives as a vagabond. Traversing the streets picking scraps out of trashcans and mugging women for their purse, and begging for money to support your drug habbit. Or a world where you are a wealthy business man. Who seems to be on vacation in exotic locales more often than he actually works. The choice is yours. In accordance with Correspondance, how you internalize yourself, externalizes. You must first change yourself in every way from within, in order to change yourself from without. This leads to the circumstances which build your world. Example: Everyone wants to be rich. But does everyone feel rich? How can a man become rich if he feels poor and inadequat? Like the struggling man who plays the lottery every week hoping, wishing, praying that he wins the jackpot so he can escape poverty. He will NEVER escape poverty so long as he continues to rule that impoverished world within. For the man to escape poverty he must destroy that world, and create a new one. A world where there is no poverty, only wealth and abundance. Easier said than done even though it sounds easy enough. Nothing happens over night in the physical realm.
- Everything is in constant motion. Nothing rests. Everything moves. Vibrational frequencies can be matched, can be felt, can be channeled. When you look at a still piece of matter, it looks still, but even the matter has a rate of vibration, albeit low. Energy, thought, emotion: All vibrating. E-Motion: Energy in motion. Your emotions is the way in which you can discover your current vibrational frequency. Love is the highest possible vibration. Negative emotions such as anger, sadness, doubt, envy, inadquecy, etc. Are low vibrations. When you cross paths with a certain someone, you suddenly feel very drained? Or a weird feeling perhaps. Maybe you feel uneasy. This is because you are sensing their vibration and it is not compatible with yours. When people vibrate at two polar opposites, it causes confusion, distress, discomfort, etc. Then other times you can be with someone who simply radiates comfort and joy. This influences you and causes your vibration to go up. Alternatively, if YOU are at a low vibrational frequency, and you come across someone who is at a very high vibrational frequency, it can cause YOU to actually fall lower on the vibrational scale, because you are immediately hit with feelings of doubt, inadequecy, jealousy, etc. And indeed, the other person can sense this as well. Always remember, that everything is constantly in motion, constantly moving, constantly vibrating. Nothing rests, not even matter as still as a dining table. DO NOT fall in to the trap however, of trying to suppress any negative emotions, and just try to be happy all the time. This is NOT the way. Many false prophets or misinformed will advise you to practice this. It is a detriment. Feeling angry, sad, depressed, doubtful, etc. is all part of the human experience. To try to supress these feelings are supressing your very own humanity. Everything requires balance. That is all. Do not feel low all the time, also, do not feel high all the time either. Be BALANCED. Embrace your emotions. Study them. Learn how to transmute energy to build vibrational pattern consistency. DO NOT fall in to the same patterns. This causes stagnation. Even if these patterns are producing seemingly the very best life has to offer. Remember that BALANCE is the way. Step out of your comfort zone. Even trivial things like: Brushing your teeth with your left hand instead of your right every so often, eating food with chopsticks instead of a fork every so often, saying greetings instead of hello to strangers, learn to make doing the unusual (whatever is unusual for yourself, and that is not harmful to yourself or others) a common practice.
- Have you ever heard the phrase: "There are 2 sides to every story"? Indeed. EVERYTHING has it's opposite. Male-female, black-white, hot-cold, love-hate, big-small, right-left, up-down, day-night, dark-light, etc. etc. etc. Everything and anything you can ever feel is only a matter of degree. For an example: Love and hate is the SAME thing. They are only opposing in degree but are both a flow of energy in motion. Hot and cold are the same thing. Merely Temperatures with polar opposite degrees. Do you see? Now let me ask: What happens when an automobile is excessively hot? It overheats yes? And cannot function properly. Alternatively if a car is freezing cold let's say hypothetically due to weather conditions, the car under this condition cannot function properly. Though overheating and freezing are both different conditions yet they are both detrimental to the car. These "different" conditions are the same thing in nature, only differing in degree. This is why BALANCE is the CENTER of true mental alchemy. Never allow yourself to overheat nor freeze. Embrace your negative emotions and thoughts, but do not let them freeze you. Alternatively do not allow your positive emotions and thoughts to overwhelm you to the point of overheating so to speak. Man is in constant activity to raise his degree, failing to realize he cannot have one without the other. Everything is dual. Everything is one. Separation is an illusion. Good and evil is ONE. For neither can exist without the other. That is the essence of mental alchemy through the law of polarity, which the law of polarity in itself, though cannot be superceded, also cannot exist without any of the other divine laws. Haven't you realized thus far that all of these laws though intricate in their own principles are all intertwined with eachother?
- Have you ever heard the phrase: "History repeats itself"? Indeed. This is not because history is prewritten or preordained, rather because the principle of rhythm is dictating all ebbs and flows of existence. From the rise and fall of nations, from poor to wealthy, from youth to elderly, from ignorant to studied, from life to death, etc. When the pendulum swings, the measure of it's swing to the right is directly proportioned to it's measure of the swing from the left. Memorize this quote: "The man who enjoys keenly, is subject to keen suffering; while he who feels but little pain is capable of feeling but little joy". Do you see? All of the amazing joy and happiness and triumph you will ever feel in life will also inevitably correspond to the deepest darkest sadness and agony. This is crucial to remember during moments in your journey when you are "stuck in a rut", feeling down, low, hopeless. Remember that the pendulum is swinging in the current direction only temporarily, because it will inevitably swing in the oppisite direction in time. No matter how badly you might feel currently, you will eventually feel an equal amount of joy and happiness. Subsequently, no matter how happy and confident you currently feel, also be modest and respect the fact that this will also be reciprocated at some point with an equal amount of sadness and pain. With the art of mental alchemy, BALANCE, you can utilize the different tides to you're advantage. For an example: Let us use a harsh example. Let's say you are an uneducated man who due to being the product of his environment, AKA the effect instead of the cause, you wound up incarcerated for 10 years. Instead of being a violent inmate who fights, steals, and participates in prison gang activity (Again; being the effect instead of the cause) you read books everysingle day, you work out everysingle day, you build mental and physical strength, leading to e-motional strength, to degrees in which you'd never have while a "free" man. After 10 years of this particular pattern, you are released from prison in the best physical and mental shape you've ever been in your life prior. This is one example of the art of mental alchemy. Utilizing these principles to your benefit. Everything has it's flows and tides. All things rise and fall. Do not let your current rhythm confuse you and leave you stagnant. The weather conditions will always inevitably effect the flight of a plane or the sailing of a ship, but the pilot/captain can navigate through these conditions using the devices he is equipped with.
- I spoke about previously how the incarcerated man was first the EFFECT (product) instead of the cause (environment), who ultimately became the CAUSE (environment) instead of the effect (product). EVERY cause has its effect, EVERY effect has its cause. NOTHING in existence happens by "chance", "luck", or "coincedence". Those 3 words are the biggest folly of man. As an example I'd like to talk about briefly what many people call "The law of attraction" though this is actually the principle of correspondance I have spoken about previously. A skeptic to this divine law will say "You cannot accomplish anything by merely thinking about it, you have to take action at some point". This is true (All truths are but half truths). However, when man has an idea/thought, implants it in his subconscious, this will be the CAUSE that invevitably brings about a circumstance which produces the EFFECT. Nothing can escape the law. I'll use a personal materialistic and very simple example: I lost my job a year ago and my car was reposessed. I got money however from filing my taxes but it was not sufficient for a down payment on a new car so I can begin working. Utilizing the principle of correspondance I began to think about having the money I need to purchase a car. But I didn't have any income, any source, any material, nothing. I pondered daily however, of having the sufficient amount needed to buy a car. One morning I was having some coffee and breakfast with a family member and we spoke about my situation, she then reminded me that at my previous job in another state, which I was employed for 4 years, I had a 401k account. Indeed, I remember that I did. I proceeded to call the company that housed my 401k account, and would recieve almost 3 thousand dollars cash deposited to my bank account the following week. So you see, my thinking was the CAUSE, which led me to recognizing I did in fact have the money needed all along for which I would simply make a phone call and recieved my payout. Needless to say I bought a car that same month (EFFECT). Now it does not matter which point in that story that you determine to be the cause, the point is to recognize that every cause has it's effect; every effect has its cause. Every action has a reaction. Every reaction came from an action. Nothing just 'happens'. You can say the man who wins the lottery and becomes a multi millionaire over night is a "lucky" man. However, if this same "lucky" man goes bankrupt in a year after splurging and bad business deals, you would retract your statement. Alternatively, if the "lucky" man only grows wealthier you would realize it isn't "luck" but the power of his own will. Or, perhaps, you may continue to attribute his success to mere "luck". It is your choice to use common sense, critical thinking, discernment, and intuition. "The lips of wisdom are closed, except to the ears of understanding".
- If you have been reading this text carefully, you will recognize that all of these principles are intertwined and cannot exist without the other(s). Mentalism: The world is the All's mental image while the world as man percieves is a product of his own mental image corresponding to the degrees at which he vibrates, while the princple of rhythm dictates the ebbs and flows at which he moves, while he participates as the cause or the effect of his waking life. ALL of this is then encompassed by the principle of Gender. Male-female. Masculine-Feminine. The conscious mind being the male, the subconscious mind being the female. The left brain containing logic, critical thinking, purpose and drive (Male), the right brain containing imagination, creativity, empathy, and compassion (female). When you think a thought in your conscious mind (Male), you plant the seed which impregnates the subconscious mind (female) which ultimately gives birth in due time. BALANCE therefore is the master key to which any door he so desires unlocks. No form of creation can be achieved without both the masculine and feminine properties. If you are a man who only harnesses masculine energy you will have the drive but this drive will have no destination. If you are a woman who only harnesses feminine energy you will only carry with you the vessel of creation and life but without the drive to birth your purpose. Do you see? As above so below. As within so without.
