Metanoia – A note on burried conscience

Why should we work on our negative emotions? This is a
very good question to ask oneself in all inner sincerity, and here the
mind will help if the strength of the Work-ideas is beginning to form
a new mind which has a small will of its own. The Emotional Centre
is the seat of our ordinary will as it is and the negative part of the
Emotional Centre is especially so. The small Will from the change in
Mental Centre is not sufficient to control the will of the unredeemed
Emotional Centre for a long time. The will of the negative part of the
Emotional Centre coupled with the will of the physical body forms a
very powerful antagonist to the Will that is formed through the Work
in the emotional part of the Intellectual Centre. But although we
witness constantly our complete failure in controlling our negative
emotions, or, let us add, the will of the body, yet if the relationship to the
Work and the valuation of its ideas are strong enough, there remains
always in spite of constant defeats something in the background which
does not consent to all that is going on. I do not think I have mentioned
here, in connection with what the Work says that the knowledge of
the Work must become emotional, that the first place in which it can
become emotional is in the emotional part of the Intellectual Centre.
As I said, it is here that the new Will of the Work is formed first of all.
The problem then is the negative part of the Emotional Centre itself
in which exist ‘I’s that are very powerful and do everything they can
to fight every form of belief that we possess in regard to this Work.
Now if we had not got Buried Conscience the situation would be hopeless.
The negative ‘I’s in the Emotional Centre would always have the
victory. The secret is however that in the Emotional Centre there is
Buried Conscience and this is awakened by the emotional part of the
Intellectual Centre when the ideas of the Work have entered the mind
and become emotionally felt—not only as what is Truth but as what is
Good. This awakens the Buried Conscience in the Emotional Centre
itself. The Work teaches that Buried Conscience exists in everyone,
quite apart from acquired Conscience, which is a matter of local
upbringing. But for this Buried Conscience and the awakening of it
in the Emotional Centre through the new mind and its new Will, we
should indeed be in a hopeless position. But fortunately, as it is, every
emotional perception of the truth of the Work coming from the
Intellectual Centre arouses this Buried Conscience in the Emotional
Centre and then the Emotional Centre itself fights against its negative
emotions.
Now if you do not keep the Work strong in your mind and renew
it continually at least once a day, or at least often, if you do not rearrange everything in your mind at intervals so that you are thinking
from the channels of the Work and their connections, this awakening
of the Buried Conscience begins to cease and then you find yourself
alone. When you feel alone like this, you must think of the Work,
as, for example, go over what was said at the last meeting and refresh
your mind with it. This is a form of Self-Remembering in a practical
way and it will send a current of force to Buried Conscience in the
Emotional Centre which alone can cast out your devils. It is not as if
you do it, nor must you think that you can do it, but if you do what
you can do, then something will help you which is not you and which
you must never ascribe to yourself. We get into a bad state often because
we ascribe everything to ourselves, just as we ascribe our merit to
ourselves, just as we ascribe our good to ourselves, which means of
course that we inevitably ascribe our evil to ourselves. One must
ascribe neither good nor evil to oneself—otherwise one stands in the
way of one’s development. The Work is an instrument first of all—a
mental instrument—which must be used to put our thoughts in the
right order, to get things straight, and if we do this with the memory of
our past experience in the Work, this effort to re-arrange internally will
stimulate this Buried Conscience in the Emotional Centre which can
fight all negative emotions and cast out every devil in us. You cannot
overcome a negative emotion directly. It will only get stronger as a
rule. But you can through your mind, through arranging the Work in
your mind, touch the emotional part of the Intellectual Centre,
which in turn awakens the Buried Conscience which will attack by
itself the negative emotions. The power of Buried Conscience derives
from the Higher Emotional Centre. You must remember that the
Work teaches that Man was once in touch with Higher Centres but
went to sleep. He once knew what to do directly but now, in this state
of sleep, he can only get to where he was by indirect methods. All that
is left now is change of mind. Change of mind starts the whole possible
recovery. That is why Christ taught always μετάνοια change of mind,
as the first thing—not repentance, but change of mind. Unless the mind
changes, whereby the attitudes change, everyone will always be just
as he is, whatever effort he makes in the way of starvation, self-denial,
and so on. With the same attitude, a man will always remain the
same. As long as a man thinks in the same habitual way, he will remain
the same. The Work can actually teach a man to think in a new way,
I repeat, about himself, about others, and about the meaning of life.

With this change of mind his attitudes will inevitably change. If your
attitudes have not changed then you will not change and you can never
change. If, for example, your attitude is that you are a fully conscious
man and that you are a unity and you have a permanent Real ‘I’ and
an inflexible will and that you can do and so on, then these attitudes and
this way of thinking will fix you always in the same psychological place
as you are in and no new development is possible. But if your attitudes
change through new thinking, through the ideas of the Work, from
esoteric teaching, then you can change, because you will begin to
arouse Buried Conscience which cannot work in you as long as you have
all these false notions about yourself, about others, and about life, and
ascribe all to yourself. It is exactly this new thinking, this that
the Work can give us, that when emotionally felt arouses into activity
the Buried Conscience which then begins to help. So you will see how
important it is to keep the Work mentally living in oneself not only
by constant outer reminders of it but by your own deeper inner thinking
because, as you know, this Work is a rope let down that you have to
jump to catch hold of.

Save Bees and Farmers Zachraňte včely a farmáře

We call on the European Commission to support environmentally friendly agriculture and the rich life of bees and all insects, birds, crops and us humans linked to it, and food production depends on pollinators.
https://zasadmese.hnutiduha.cz/vcely
https://friendsoftheearth.eu/news/savebeesandfarmers-campaign-launches-to-ban-pesticides-and-save-farmers-and-nature/
4 million farms had disappeared in 10 years in EU. That obviously signalizes a trend of not supporting
the ecosystem’s sustainability of our continent.

Metanoia – The line of evolution is opposed to the line of creation

“In school teaching a man is given examples of both descending (creative) and ascending (or evolutionar) cosmic octaves. Western thought, knowing neither about octaves nor about the law of three, confuses the ascending and descending lines and does not understand that the line of evolution is opposed to the line of creation, that is to say, it goes against it as though against the stream.”
ISOM P.D.Ouspensky p.134
Not everyone wants to go the way of evolution for the attraction of the other, but everyone should be aware of the existence of both and their differences and impacts on our lives, our planet and the whole Solar system.

It is very impressive. The contest lacks the finals – which crop is sold first for its taste?
AI costs the energy but they can use the solar panels. The sun gives the energy for free….

I am not negative. I just know by direct experience that supermarket’s strawberries cannot possibly compete with the taste of the strawberries from our garden and the strawberries from our garden cannot possibly compete with the taste and scent of wild strawberries from the nearby forests. And taste and scent are the attributes of special active cosmic substances in the atmosphere, which only GOD’s creation does abstract for further evolutionary purposes, says the esoteric literature. What are these active cosmic substances, when is ai going to find them?
That observation about good products being gradually replaced by their lesser versions is just an aspect of one of the objective laws of the Universe. What an illogical thing to ignore so profoundly the The Ray of Creation of which we ourselves are part.

Metanoia – The laws we are under

“Birdlip, December 2, 1944
LAW OF FATE AND LAW OF ACCIDENT
INTRODUCTORY NOTE ON THE WORK TEACHING ABOUT LAWS
The Work teaches that the Absolute is under one law—the law of
its own Will. From it proceeds creation by the first trinity of forces
which create the first order of worlds under 3 laws. This is sometimes
called World 3. In tracing the Ray of Creation to our Earth we have
next our Galaxy under 6 laws, our Solar System as a minute part of our
Galaxy under 12 laws, our Planetary System as a whole under 24 laws,
our Earth as part of the planets under 48, and our Moon as part of our
Earth under 96.
You must understand that the part is always under more laws than
the whole. It is necessary to see this clearly by finding your own
examples—for example, the soldier is under the laws of the Captain,
the Captain under the laws of the Colonel, etc., and the whole army
under the law of the General. Does Man put himself under more laws
in war? Does the general movement of things tend to-day to put Man
under more and more laws? Will this make it possible for Man to
reach his Essence more easily or will Man tend to become more of a
machine, more mechanical? Are ants and bees under more laws than
we are? Have they any individual chance of development?
The more laws Man puts himself under the more can it be said he
is under the Law of Accident. In all that follows you must clearly
grasp that, Personality is under more laws than Essence. Essence is
under planetary laws at the note Fa in the Ray of Creation, or rather
the note Si in the Side-Octave, both notes being at the same level in
scale. Behind Essence lies Real ‘I’ which is under 12 laws and corresponds diagrammatically to the level represented by the Sun. That is,
Essence is above Personality in the Scale of Being, and Real ‘I’ is above
Essence. Psychologically, Essence is internal to Personality and Real
‘I’ internal to Essence. What is more internal is higher in scale. So
you can either say internal or higher, both terms having the same
meaning”.
excerpts from Psychological Commentaries Dr. M. Nicoll

I expect all sane minds to understand how we put ourselves under more and more unnecessary laws.

“The world has moved on,” said Byford Tsang, who follows climate diplomacy for the London-based research organization E3G. “This election wouldn’t change the direction of global climate action, but it can change the pace of global climate action.”

“Mr. Biden has made no specific promises regarding the Paris Agreement, other than that he would recommit the United States to its goals and “go much further.” He has said he would “lead an effort to get every major country to ramp up their ambition of their domestic climate targets” and “stop countries from cheating.”

Metanoia – Absoizomosa

ABSOIZOMOSA when any surplanetary formation is artificially grafted or manipulated in any such fashion, it arrives in a state defined by Objective Science as Absoizomosa in which it absorbs from its surrounding medium, cosmic substances serviceable only for the coating of what is called its automatically self-reproducing subjective presence.
https://silo.pub/index-and-guide-to-beelzebubs-tales-gurdjieff.html

(Translated into the common language: a state where the subject’s capability to absorb from the air cosmic substances that can serve for the coating of a human soul is lost).
That is the tragic consequence of not admitting that the Universe is spiritual.

Metanoia – Extraction of ELECTRICITY

A note to a stranger: pls read it 3 times, first as your newspapers, secondly vocalized and thirdly with mentating over it. G.I.G.
Pls. do not get discouraged by the unknown expressions if unknown . Their understanding comes with feeling the knowledge (in time). D.P.

……”I must say that the three-brained beings of the planet Mars knew our genuine nature from the very beginning, and also the true reason why we were compelled to dwell on their planet.
.”They were not like the three-brained beings of your planet who never knew anything and never even suspected who we were and why we existed on their planet.

P1150

“………the indubitable conviction that the results ensuing from the abnormal existence of the three-brained beings of your planet had already begun to act harmfully also on the ordinary existence of the three-brained beings arising and existing on the planet Mars, in respect of their ‘potency’ to perfect themselves as is proper to all three-brained beings.

“‘What I thus constated aroused in me a subjective interest which served as the source for the engendering in my presence of the requisite impulse for the thorough cognizance of the cause of this fact, and from then on I began to pay attention both to myself as well as to what proceeded around me and to seek out the causes for it; and after one “Rkhee” I became convinced beyond doubt that this undesirable state proceeded with me each time, on the day when our large “Lifechakan” was in action.

“‘It was just this fact which I then first constated which was the cause that I have, since then, become seriously interested in this omnipresent cosmic substance and deeply absorbed in the study of its details.

“‘As a result, from the very beginning of my subsequent experimental elucidations, I came to possess an immeasurable number of every kind of proof for the elucidation, both for myself and for others, of the fact that the Omnipresent substance Okidanokh is such a particle of the common presence of the atmosphere of our planet, and evidently of the presence of the atmosphere of other planets, as takes part both in the arising of every planetary and surplanetary formation – among which of course there is also the “Hraprkhabeekhrokhnian” part of every being – as well as in the maintenance of their existence.

[45. Extraction of Electricity, p. 1157]

“‘Upon my further experimental elucidations I also became aware, beyond all doubt, that although our solar system like all the other solar systems of the Great Universe has its own Ansanbaluiazar, and each planet with its atmosphere is a special place of concentration of one or another class of cosmic substances of the given “Systematic-Ansanbaluiazar,’ yet nevertheless the cosmic-substance Okidanokh is an indispensable and predominant part of the presence of each planet.

“‘And later, also thanks to my experiments, it became clear to me that this cosmic substance is, owing to the common universal equilibrium, concentrated in every system in a strictly corresponding proportion and is distributed also in a strictly definite proportion between the atmosphere of each planet of the given solar system, and that when this universal substance is used up by accident or design in any one place of atmospheric space, it must without fail be replenished for the equilibrium of its common proportionalness in the atmosphere, and this proceeds by its flowing in from other places, and thereby this balancing transposition of Okidanokh must proceed not only from one space to another in the atmosphere of any planet, but also from the atmosphere of one planet to the atmosphere of another planet, if in this other planet for some reason or other more than its established norm is used up.

“‘Finally, I still further very definitely and from every aspect made clear to my reason and proved to others that the Omnipresent cosmic-substance Okidanokh present in our atmosphere and which is constantly being replenished, is for the common presence of our planet not only necessary and most important for every kind of arising and maintaining of existence, but also that the essence of every “relatively independent” intraplanetary and surplanetary formation as well as of the beings of every system of brains and external coating depends on this substance, and likewise that the possibilities for three-brained beings to perfect themselves and ultimately to blend with the Prime Cause of everything existing depends exclusively also on it.

[45. Extraction of Electricity, p. 1158]

“‘I repeat, as a result of all my experimental elucidations, I very definitely cognized for myself and acquired indubitable data for the possibilities of proving from every aspect to all those around me, beings like myself, that the destruction in the presences of the planet and of its atmosphere, of the Omnipresent cosmic-substance Okidanokh is almost equivalent to the conscious destruction of all the labors and results of the First-Sacred-Cause of everything that exists.’

“With these words, captivated by the theme of this exposition, my dear godson, the young high-spirited Gornahoor Rakhoorkh, finished his talk.

“In the middle of Gornahoor Rakhoorkh’s explanations concerning the mentioned properties of the Omnipresent cosmic-substance Okidanokh and the inevitable consequences of its extraction and destruction from the common presence of your planet, the suspicion arose in me, and in my memory there gradually began to be restored all kinds of general pictures – previously perceived during my personal sojourn among your favorites just during the period of my close observations on their existence from the planet Mars of the impressions from their ordinary being-existence – of how they at different periods repeatedly obtained this substance or it’s separate parts from the nature of their planet and used them for their different, naively egoistic aims.

[45. Extraction of Electricity, p. 1159]

“And when during the further explanations of Gornahoor Rakhoorkh, I, by association, remembered the request of the great Toof-Nef-Tef of the planet Mars, I then with all my being became aware without any doubt of all the maleficent consequences of just this manifestation of the three-brained beings of your planet.

“They named the totality or the separate parts of this substance, sacred just for them, differently at different periods, and at the present time they name the result of the blending and the mutual destruction of two parts of this omnipresent substance ‘electricity.’
excertpts from Beelzebub’s Tales G.I.G.

Metanoia – The Absolute and the world of vibrations

“The next idea which it is necessary to master is the materiality of the universe
which is taken in the form of the ray of creation. Everything in this universe can be
weighed and measured. The Absolute is as material, as weighable and measurable, as
the moon, or as man. If the Absolute is God it means that God can be weighed and
measured, resolved into component elements, ‘calculated,’ and expressed in the form
of a definite formula.
“But the concept ‘materiality’ is as relative as everything else. If we recall how the
concept ‘man’ and all that refers to him—good, evil, truth, falsehood, and so on—is
divided into different categories (‘man number one,’ ‘man number two,’ and so on, it
will be easy for us to understand that the concept ‘world,’ and everything that refers to
the world, is also divided into different categories. The ray of creation establishes
seven planes in the world, seven worlds one within another. Everything that refers to
the world is also divided into seven categories, one category within another. The
materiality of the Absolute is a materiality of an order different from that of ‘all
worlds.’ The materiality of ‘all worlds’ is of an order different from the materiality of
‘all suns.’ The materiality of ‘all suns’ is of an order different from the materiality of
our sun. The materiality of our sun is of an order different from the materiality of ‘all
planets.’ The materiality of ‘all planets’ is of an order different from the materiality of
the earth, and the materiality of the earth is of an order different from the materiality
of the moon. This idea is at first difficult to grasp. People are accustomed to think that
matter is everywhere the same. The whole of physics, of astrophysics, of chemistry,
such methods as spectroanalysis, and so on, are based upon this assumption. And it is
true that matter is the same, but materiality is different. And different degrees of
materiality depend directly upon the qualities and properties of the energy manifested
at a given point.
“Matter or substance necessarily presupposes the existence of force or energy. This
does not mean that a dualistic conception of the world is necessary. The concepts of
matter and force are as relative as everything else. In the Absolute, where all is one,
matter and force are also one. But in this connection matter and force are not taken as
real principles of the world in itself, but as properties or characteristics of the
phenomenal world observed by us. To begin the study of the universe it is sufficient to
have an elementary idea of matter and energy, such as we get by immediate
observation through our organs of sense. The ‘constant’ is taken as material, as matter,
and ‘changes’ in the state of the ‘constant,’ or of matter, are called manifestations of
force or energy. All these changes can be regarded as the result of vibrations or
undulatory motions which begin in the center, that is, in the Absolute, and go in all
directions, crossing one another, colliding, and merging together, until they stop altogether
at the end of the ray of creation.
“From this point of view, then, the world consists of vibrations and matter, or of
matter in a state of vibration, of vibrating matter. The rate of vibration is in inverse
ratio to the density of matter.
“In the Absolute vibrations are the most rapid and matter is the least dense. In the
next world vibrations are slower and matter denser; and further on matter is still more
dense and vibrations correspondingly slower.
” ‘Matter’ may be regarded as consisting of ‘atoms.’ Atoms in this connection are
taken also as the result of the final division of matter. In every order of matter they are
simply certain small particles of the given matter which are indivisible only on the
given plane. The atoms of the Absolute alone are really indivisible, the atom of the
next plane, that is, of world 3, consists of three atoms of the Absolute or, in other
words, it is three times bigger and three times heavier, and its movements are
correspondingly slower. The atom of world 6 consists of six atoms of the Absolute
merged together, as it were, and forming one atom. Its movements are
correspondingly slower. The atom of the next world consists of twelve primordial
particles, and of the next worlds, of twenty-four, forty-eight, and ninety-six. The atom
of world 96 is of an enormous size compared with the atom of world 1; its movements
are correspondingly slower, and the matter which is made up of such atoms is
correspondingly denser.

“The seven worlds of the ray of creation represent seven orders of materiality. The
materiality of the moon is different from the materiality of the earth; the materiality of
the earth is different from the materiality of the planetary world; the materiality of the
planetary world is different from the materiality of the sun, and so on.
“Thus instead of one concept of matter we have seven kinds of matter, but our
ordinary conception of materiality only with difficulty embraces the materiality of
worlds 96 and 48. The matter of world 24 is much too rarefied to be regarded as
matter from the scientific point of view of our physics and chemistry; such matter is
practically hypothetical. The still finer matter of world 12 has, for ordinary
investigation, no characteristics of materiality at all. All these matters belonging to the
various orders of the universe are not separated into layers but are intermixed, or,
rather, they interpenetrate one another. We can get an idea of similar interpenetration
of matters of different densities from the penetration of one matter by another matter
of different densities known to us. A piece of wood may be saturated with water,
water may in its turn be filled with gas. Exactly the same relation between different
kinds of matter may be observed in the whole of the universe: the finer matters
permeate the coarser ones.
“Matter that possesses characteristics of materiality comprehensible to us is divided
for us into several states according to its density: solid, liquid, gaseous; further
gradations of matter are: radiant energy, that is, electricity, light, magnetism; and so
on. But on every plane, that is to say, in every order of materiality, similar relations
and divisions of the various states of a given matter may be found; but, as has been
already said, matter of a higher plane is not material at all for the lower planes.
“All the matter of the world that surrounds us, the food that we eat, the water that
we drink, the air that we breathe, the stones that our houses are built of, our own
bodies—everything is permeated by all the matters that exist in the universe. There is
no need to study or investigate the sun in order to discover the matter of the solar
world: this matter exists in ourselves and is the result of the division of our atoms. In
the same way we have in us the matter of all other worlds. Man is, in the full sense of
the term, a ‘miniature universe’; in him are all the matters of which the universe
consists; the same forces, the same laws that govern the life of the universe, operate in
him; therefore in studying man we can study the whole world, just as in studying the
world we can study man.
“But a complete parallel between man and the world can only be drawn if we take
‘man’ in the full sense of the word, that is, a man whose inherent powers are
developed. An undeveloped man, a man who has not completed the course of his
evolution, cannot be taken as a complete picture or plan of the universe—he is an
unfinished world.
“As has been said already, the study of oneself must go side by side with the study
of the fundamental laws of the universe. The laws are the same everywhere and on all
planes. But the very same laws manifesting themselves in different worlds, that is,
under different conditions, produce different phenomena. The study of the relation of
laws to the planes upon which they are manifested brings us to the study of relativity.
“The idea of relativity occupies a very important place in this teaching, and, later on,
we shall return to it. But before anything else it is necessary to understand the
relativity of each thing and of each manifestation according to the place it occupies in
the cosmic order.
“We are on the earth and we depend entirely upon the laws that are operating on the
earth. The earth is a very bad place from the cosmic point of view—it is like the most
remote part of northern Siberia, very far from everywhere, it is cold, life is very hard.
Everything that in another place either comes by itself or is easily obtained, is here
acquired only by hard labor; everything must be fought for both in life and in the
work. In life it still happens sometimes that a man gets a legacy and afterwards lives
without doing anything. But such a thing does not happen in the work. All are equal
and all are equally beggars.
“Returning to the law of three, one must learn to find the manifestations of this law
in everything we do and in everything we study. The application of this law in any
sphere at once reveals much that is new, much that we did not see before. Take
chemistry, for instance. Ordinary science does not know of the law of three and it
studies matter without taking into consideration its cosmic properties. But besides
ordinary chemistry there exists another, a special chemistry, or alchemy if you like,
which studies matter taking into consideration its cosmic properties. As has been said
before, the cosmic properties of each substance are determined first by its place, and
secondly by the force which is acting through it at the given moment. Even in the same
place the nature of a given substance undergoes a great change dependent upon the
force which is being manifested through it. Each substance can be the conductor of
any one of the three forces and, in accordance with this, it can be active, passive, or
neutralizing. And it can be neither the first, nor the second, nor the third, if no force is
manifesting through it at the given moment or if it is taken without relation to the
manifestation of forces. In this way every substance appears, as it were, in four
different aspects or states. In this connection it must be noted that when we speak of
matter we do not speak of chemical elements. The special chemistry of which I speak
looks upon every substance having a separate function, even the most complex, as an
element. In this way only is it possible to study the cosmic properties of matter,
because all complex compounds have their own cosmic purpose and significance.
From this point of view an atom of a given substance is
the smallest amount of the given substance which retains all its chemical, physical,
and cosmic properties. Consequently the size of the ‘atom’ of different substances is
not the same. And in some cases an ‘atom’ may be a particle even visible to the naked
eye.
“The four aspects or states of every substance have definite names.
“When a substance is the conductor of the first or the active force, it is called
‘carbon,’ and, like the carbon of chemistry, it is designated by the letter C.
“When a substance is the conductor of the second or the passive force, it is called
‘oxygen,’ and, like the oxygen of chemistry, it is designated by the letter 0.
“When a substance is the conductor of the third or neutralizing force, it is called
‘nitrogen,’ and, like the nitrogen of chemistry, it is designated by the letter N.
“When a substance is taken without relation to the force manifesting itself through
it, it is called ‘hydrogen,’ and, like the hydrogen of chemistry, it is designated by the
letter H.
“The active, the passive, and the neutralizing forces are designated by the figures 1,
2, 3, and the substances by the letters C, 0, N, and H. These designations must be
understood.”
“Do these four elements correspond to the old four alchemical elements, fire, air,
water, earth?” asked one of us.
“Yes, they do correspond,” said G., “but we will use these. You will understand
why afterwards.”
excerpts from ISOM of P.D. Ouspensky

Metanoia – The moon and the earth getting warmer as a part of a general plan of the Universe.

“The idea of the ray of creation and its growth from the Absolute contradicts the
general views of our day.
“According to this idea the moon is still an unborn planet, one that is, so to speak,
being born. It is becoming warm gradually and in time (given a favorable
development of the ray of creation) it will become like the earth and have a satellite
of its own, a new moon. A new link will have been added to the ray of creation. The
earth, too, is not getting colder, it is getting warmer, and may in time become like the
sun. We observe such a process for instance in the system of Jupiter, which is a sun
for its satellites.
“Summing up all that has been said before about the ray of creation, from world 1
down to world 96, it must be added that the figures by which worlds are designated
indicate the number of forces, or orders of laws, which govern the worlds in question.
In the Absolute there is only one force and only one law—the single and independent
will of the Absolute. In the next world there are three forces or three orders of laws. In
the next there are six orders of laws; in the following one, twelve;
and so on. In our world, that is, the earth, forty-eight orders of laws are operating to
which we are subject and by which our whole life is governed. If we lived on the
moon we should be subject to ninety-six orders of laws, that is, our life and activity
would be still more mechanical and we should not have the possibilities of escape
from mechanicalness that we now have.
“As has been said already, the will of the Absolute is only manifested in the
immediate world created by it within itself, that is, in world 3;
the immediate will of the Absolute does not reach world 6 and is mani-
fested in it only in the form of mechanical laws. Further on, in worlds 12, 24, 48, and
96, the will of the Absolute has less and less possibility of manifesting itself. This
means that in world 3 the Absolute creates, as it were, a general plan of all the rest of
the universe, which is then further developed mechanically. The will of the Absolute
cannot manifest itself in subsequent worlds apart from this plan, and, in manifesting
itself in accordance with this plan, it takes the form of mechanical laws. This means
that if the Absolute wanted to manifest its will, say, in our world, in opposition to the
mechanical laws in operation there, it would then have to destroy all the worlds
intermediate between itself and our world.
“The idea of a miracle in the sense of a violation of laws by the will which made
them is not only contrary to common sense but to the very idea of will itself. A
‘miracle’ can only be a manifestation of laws which are unknown to men or rarely met
with. A ‘miracle’ is the manifestation in this world of the laws of another world.
“On the earth we are very far removed from the will of the Absolute;
we are separated from it by forty-eight orders of mechanical laws. If we could free
ourselves from one half of these laws, we should find ourselves subject to only twentyfour orders of laws, that is, to the laws of the planetary world, and then we should be
one stage nearer to the Absolute and its will. If we could then free ourselves from one
half of these laws, we should be subject to the laws of the sun (twelve laws) and consequently one stage nearer still to the Absolute. If, again, we could free ourselves from
half of these laws, we should be subject to the laws of the starry world and separated
by only one stage from the immediate will of the Absolute.
“And the possibility for man thus gradually to free himself from mechanical laws
exists.”
excerpts from ISOM P.D. Ouspensky

Metanoia – The Intelligence of the planets

“G. spoke of the planets and the moon as
living beings, having definite ages, a definite period of life and possibilities of
development and transition to other planes of being. From what he said it appeared
that the moon was not a “dead planet,” as is usually accepted, but, on the contrary, a
“planet in birth”; a planet at the very initial stages of its development which had not
yet reached “the degree of intelligence possessed by the earth,” as he expressed it.
“But the moon is growing and developing,” said G., “and some time, it will,
possibly, attain the same level as the earth. Then, near it, a new moon will appear and
the earth will become their sun. At one time the sun was like the earth and the earth
like the moon. And earlier still the sun was like the moon.”
This attracted my attention at once. Nothing had ever seemed to me more artificial,
unreliable, and dogmatic than all the usual theories of the origin of planets and solar
systems, beginning with the Kant-Laplace theory down to the very latest, with all
their additions and variations. The “general public” considers these theories, or at any
rate the last one known to it, to be scientific and proven. But in actual fact there is of
course nothing less scientific and less proven than these theories. Therefore the fact
that G.’s system accepted an altogether different theory, an organic theory having its
origin in entirely new principles and showing a different universal order, appeared to
me very interesting and important.
“In what relation does the intelligence of the earth stand to the intelligence of the
sun?” I asked.
“The intelligence of the sun is divine,” said G. “But the earth can become the same;
only, of course, it is not guaranteed and the earth may die having attained nothing.”
“Upon what does this depend?” I asked.
G.’s answer was very vague.
“There is a definite period,” he said, “for a certain thing to be done. If, by a certain
time, what ought to be done has not been done, the earth may perish without having
attained what it could have attained.”
“Is this period known?” I asked.
“It is known,” said G. “But it would be no advantage whatever for people to know it.
It would even be worse. Some would believe it, others would not believe it, yet others
would demand proofs. Afterwards they would begin to break one another’s heads.
Everything ends this way with people.”

The principle of the discontinuity of vibrations, the principle of deviation of forces, the principle of the inevitability of either ascent or descent in every line of development of forces, the principle of the periodic fluctuations

“In right knowledge the study of man must proceed on parallel lines with the study
of the world, and the study of the world must run parallel with the study of man. Laws
are everywhere the same, in the world as well as in man. Having mastered the
principles of any one law we must look for its manifestation in the world and in man
simultaneously. Moreover, some laws are more easily observed in the world, others
are more easily observed in man. Therefore in certain cases it is better to begin with
the world and then to pass on to man, and in other cases it is better to begin with man
and then to pass on to the world.
“This parallel study of the world and of man shows the student the fundamental
unity of everything and helps him to find analogies in phenomena of different orders.
“The number of fundamental laws which govern all processes both in the world and
in man is very small. Different numerical combinations of a few elementary forces
create all the seeming variety of phenomena.
“In order to understand the mechanics of the universe it is necessary to resolve
complex phenomena into these elementary forces.
“The first fundamental law of the universe is the law of three forces, or three
principles, or, as it is often called, the law of three. According to this law every action,
every phenomenon in all worlds without exception, is the result of a simultaneous
action of three forces—the positive, the negative, and the neutralizing. Of this we have
already spoken, and in future we will return to this law with every new line of study.
“The next fundamental law of the universe is the law of seven or the law of octaves.
“In order to understand the meaning of this law it is necessary to regard the universe
as consisting of vibrations. These vibrations proceed in all kinds, aspects, and
densities of the matter which constitutes the universe, from the finest to the coarsest;
they issue from various sources and proceed in various directions, crossing one
another, colliding, strengthening, weakening, arresting one another, and so on.
“In this connection according to the usual views accepted in the West, vibrations are
continuous. This means that vibrations are usually regarded as proceeding
uninterruptedly, ascending or descending so long as there continues to act the force of
the original impulse which caused the vibration and which overcomes the resistance of
the medium in which the vibrations proceed. When the force of the impulse becomes
exhausted and the resistance of the medium gains the upper hand the vibrations
naturally die down and stop. But until this moment is reached, that is, until the
beginning of the natural weakening, the vibrations develop uniformly and gradually,
and, in the absence of resistance, can even be endless. So that one of the fundamental
propositions of our physics is the continuity of vibrations, although this has never been
precisely formulated because it has never been opposed. In certain of the newest
theories this proposition is beginning to be shaken. Nevertheless physics is still very
far from a correct view on the nature of vibrations, or what corresponds to our
conception of vibrations, in the real world.
“In this instance the view of ancient knowledge is opposed to that of contemporary
science because at the base of the understanding of vibrations ancient knowledge
places the principle of the discontinuity of vibrations.
“The principle of the discontinuity of vibration means the definite and necessary
characteristic of all vibrations in nature, whether ascending or descending, to develop
not uniformly but with periodical accelerations and retardations. This principle can be
formulated still more precisely if we say that the force of the original impulse in
vibrations does not act uniformly but, as it were, becomes alternately stronger and
weaker. The force of the impulse acts without changing its nature and vibrations
develop in a regular way only for a certain time which is determined by the nature of
the impulse, the medium, the conditions, and so forth. But at a certain moment a kind
of change takes place in it and the vibrations, so to speak, cease to obey it and for a
short time they slow down and to a certain extent change their nature or direction; for
example, ascending vibrations at a certain moment begin to ascend more slowly, and
descending vibrations begin to descend more slowly. After this temporary retardation,
both in ascending and descending, the vibrations again enter the former channel and
for a certain time ascend or descend uniformly up to a certain moment when a check in
their development again takes place. In this connection it is significant that the periods
of uniform action of the momentum are not equal and that the moments of retardation
of the vibrations are not symmetrical. One period is shorter, the other is longer.
“In order to determine these moments of retardation, or rather, the checks in the
ascent and descent of vibrations, the lines of development of
vibrations are divided into periods corresponding to the doubling or the halving of the
number of vibrations in a given space of time.
“Let us imagine a line of increasing vibrations. Let us take them at the moment
when they are vibrating at the rate of one thousand a second. After a certain time the
number of vibrations is doubled, that is, reaches two thousand.
1000 2000
|—————————————————————|
FIG. 7
“It has been found and established that in this interval of vibrations, between the
given number of vibrations and a number twice as large, there are two places where a
retardation in the increase of vibrations takes place. One is near the beginning but not
at the beginning itself. The other occurs almost at the end.
“Approximately:
FIG. 8 1000|————————|———————————|——|2000
“The laws which govern the retardation or the deflection of vibrations from their
primary direction were known to ancient science. These laws were duly incorporated
into a particular formula or diagram which has been preserved up to our times. In this
formula the period in which vibrations are doubled was divided into eight unequal
steps corresponding to the rate of increase in the vibrations. The eighth step repeats
the first step with double the number of vibrations. This period of the doubling of the
vibrations, or the line of the development of vibrations, between a given number of
vibrations and double that number, is called an octave, that is to say, composed of
eight.
“The principle of dividing into eight unequal parts the period, in which the
vibrations are doubled, is based upon the observation of the non-uniform increase of
vibrations in the entire octave, and separate ‘steps’ of the octave show acceleration and
retardation at different moments of its development.
“In the guise of this formula ideas of the octave have been handed down from
teacher to pupil, from one school to another. In very remote times one of these
schools found that it was possible to apply this formula to music. In this way was
obtained the seven-tone musical scale which was known in the most distant antiquity,
then forgotten, and then discovered or ‘found’ again.
“The seven-tone scale is the formula of a cosmic law which was worked out by
ancient schools and applied to music. At the same time, how-
ever, if we study the manifestations of the law of octaves in vibrations of other kinds
we shall see that the laws are everywhere the same, and that light, heat, chemical,
magnetic, and other vibrations are subject to the same laws as sound vibrations. For
instance, the light scale is known to physics; in chemistry the periodic system of the
elements is without doubt closely connected with the principle of octaves although this
connection is still not fully clear to science.
“A study of the structure of the seven-tone musical scale gives a very good
foundation for understanding the cosmic law of octaves.
“Let us again take the ascending octave, that is, the octave in which the frequency of
vibrations increases. Let us suppose that this octave begins with one thousand
vibrations a second. Let us designate these thousand vibrations by the note do.
Vibrations are growing, that is, their frequency is increasing. At the point where they
reach two thousand vibrations a second there will be a second do, that is, the do of the
next octave.
do ———————————————————————— do
FIG. 9
“The period between one do and the next, that is, an octave, is divided into seven
unequal parts because the frequency of vibrations does not increase uniformly.
, do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si , do, FIG. 10
“The ratio of the pitch of the notes, or of the frequency of vibrations will be as
follows:
“If we take do as 1 then re will be 9/8, mi 5/4, fa 4/3, sol 3/2, la 3/2, si 15/8, and
do 2.
1 9/8 5/4 4/3 3/2 5/3 15/8 2

do re mi fa sol la si do FIG. 11
“The differences in the acceleration or increase in the notes or the difference in tone
will be as follows:
between do and re 9/8 : 1 = 9/8
between re and mi 5/4 : 9/8 = 10/9
between mi and fa 4/3 : 5/4 = 16/15 increase retarded
between fa and sol 3/2 : 4/3 = 9/8
between sol and la 5/3 : 3/2 = 10/9
between la and si 15/8 : 5/3 == 9/8
between si and do 2 : 15/8 = 16/15 increase again retarded
“The differences in the notes or the differences in the pitch of the notes are called
intervals. We see that there are three kinds of intervals in the octave: 9/8, 10/9, and
16/15, which in whole numbers correspond to 405, 400, and 384. The smallest
interval 16/15 occurs between mi and fa and between si and do. These are precisely
the places of retardation in the octave.
“In relation to the musical (seven-tone) scale it is generally considered
(theoretically) that there are two semitones between each two notes, with the
exception of the intervals mi-fa and si-do, which have only one semitone and in
which one semitone is regarded as being left out.
“In this manner twenty notes are obtained, eight of which are fundamental: do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, si, do
and twelve intermediate: two between each of the following two notes:
do-re
re-mi
fa-sol
sol-la
la-si
and one between each of the following two notes:
mi-fa
si-do
“But in practice, that is, in music, instead of twelve intermediate semitones only
five are taken, that is one semitone between:
do-re
re-mi
fa-sol
sol-la
la-si
“Between mi and fa and between si and do the semitone is not taken at all.
“In this way the structure of the musical seven-tone scale gives a scheme of the
cosmic law of ‘intervals,’ or absent semitones. In this respect when octaves are spoken
of in a ‘cosmic’ or a ‘mechanical’ sense, only those intervals between mi-fa and si-do
are called ‘intervals’
“If we grasp its full meaning the law of octaves gives us an entirely new
explanation of the whole of life, of the progress and development of phenomena on all planes
of the universe observed by us. This law explains why there are
no straight lines in nature and also why we can neither think nor do, why everything
with us is thought, why everything happens with us and happens usually in a way
opposed to what we want or expect. All this is the clear and direct effect of the
‘intervals,’ or retardations in the development of vibrations.
“What precisely does happen at the moment of the retardation of vibrations? A
deviation from the original direction takes place. The octave begins in the direction
shown by the arrow:

isom22Download

“This law shows why straight lines never occur in our activities, why, having begun
to do one thing, we in fact constantly do something entirely
different, often the opposite of the first, although we do not notice this and continue
to think that we are doing the same thing that we began to do.
“All this and many other things can only be explained with the help of the law of
octaves together with an understanding of the role and significance of ‘intervals’
which cause the line of the development of force constantly to change, to go in a
broken line, to turn round, to become its ‘own opposite’ and so on.
“Such a course of things, that is, a change of direction, we can observe in
everything. After a certain period of energetic activity or strong emotion or a right
understanding a reaction comes, work becomes tedious and tiring; moments of fatigue
and indifference enter into feeling; instead of right thinking a search for compromises
begins; suppression, evasion of difficult problems. But the line continues to develop
though now not in the same direction as at the beginning. Work becomes mechanical,
feeling becomes weaker and weaker, descends to the level of the common events of
the day; thought becomes dogmatic, literal. Everything proceeds in this way for a
certain time, then again there is reaction, again a stop, again a deviation. The
development of the force may continue but the work which was begun with great zeal
and enthusiasm has become an obligatory and useless formality; a number of entirely
foreign elements have entered into feeling—considering, vexation, irritation,
hostility;
thought goes round in a circle, repeating what was known before, and the way out
which had been found becomes more and more lost.
“The same thing happens in all spheres of human activity. In literature, science, art,
philosophy, religion, in individual and above all in social and political life, we can
observe how the line of the development of forces deviates from its original direction
and goes, after a certain time, in a diametrically opposite direction, still preserving its
former name. A study of history from this point of view shows the most astonishing
facts which mechanical humanity is far from desiring to notice. Perhaps the most
interesting examples of such change of direction in the line of the development of
forces can be found in the history of religion, particularly in the history of
Christianity if it is studied dispassionately. Think how many turns the line of
development of forces must have taken to come from the Gospel preaching of love to
the Inquisition; or to go from the ascetics of the early centuries studying esoteric
Christianity to the scholastics who calculated how many angels could be placed on
the point of a needle.
“The law of octaves explains many phenomena in our lives which are
incomprehensible.
“First is the principle of the deviation of forces.
“Second is the fact that nothing in the world stays in the same place, or remains
what it was, everything moves, everything is going somewhere,
is changing, and inevitably either develops or goes down, weakens or degenerates,
that is to say, it moves along either an ascending or a descending line of octaves.
“And third, that in the actual development itself of both ascending and descending
octaves, fluctuations, rises and falls are constantly taking place.
“We have spoken so far chiefly about the discontinuity of vibrations and about the
deviation of forces. We must now clearly grasp two other principles: the inevitability
of either ascent or descent in every line of development of forces, and also the
periodic fluctuations, that is, rises and falls, in every line whether ascending or
descending.
“Nothing can develop by staying on one level. Ascent or descent is the inevitable
cosmic condition of any action. We neither understand nor see what is going on
around and within us, either because we do not allow for the inevitability of descent
when there is no ascent, or because we take descent to be ascent. These are two of the
fundamental causes of our self-deception. We do not see the first one because we
continually think that things can remain for a long time at the same level; and we do
not see the second because ascents where we see them are in fact impossible, as
impossible as it is to increase consciousness by mechanical means.
“Having learned to distinguish ascending and descending octaves in life we must
learn to distinguish ascent and descent within the octaves themselves. Whatever
sphere of our life we take we can see that nothing can ever remain level and constant;
everywhere and in everything proceeds the swinging of the pendulum, everywhere
and in everything the waves rise and fall. Our energy in one or another direction
which suddenly increases and afterwards just as suddenly weakens; our moods which
‘become better’ or ‘become worse’ without any visible reason; our feelings, our desires,
our intentions, our decisions—all from time to time pass through periods of ascent or
descent, become stronger or weaker.
“And there are perhaps a hundred pendulums moving here and there in man. These
ascents and descents, these wave-like fluctuations of moods, thought, feelings,
energy, determination, are periods of the development of forces between ‘intervals’ in
the octaves as well as the ‘intervals’ themselves.
“Upon the law of octaves in its three principal manifestations depend many
phenomena both of a psychic nature as well as those immediately connected with our
life. Upon the law of octaves depends the imperfection and the incompleteness of our
knowledge in all spheres without exception, chiefly because we always begin in one
direction and afterwards without noticing it proceed in another.
“As has been said already, .the law of octaves in all its manifestations was known
to ancient knowledge.
“Even our division of time, that is, the days of the week into work days and
Sundays, is connected with the same properties and inner conditions of our activity
which depend upon the general law. The Biblical myth of the creation of the world in
six days and of the seventh day in which God rested from his labors is also an
expression of the law of octaves or an indication of it, though an incomplete one.
“Observations based on an understanding of the law of octaves show that
‘vibrations’ may develop in different ways. In interrupted octaves they merely begin
and fall, are drowned or swallowed up by other, stronger, vibrations which intersect
them or which go in an opposite direction. In octaves which deviate from the original
direction the vibrations change their nature and give results opposite to those which
might have been expected at the beginning.
“And it is only in octaves of a cosmic order, both descending and ascending, that
vibrations develop in a consecutive and orderly way, following the same direction in
which they started.
“Further observations show that a right and consistent development of octaves,
although rare, can be observed in all the occasions of life and in the activity of nature
and even in human activity.
“The right development of these octaves is based on what looks an accident. It
sometimes happens that octaves going parallel to the given octave, intersecting or
meeting it, in some way or another fill up its ‘intervals’ and make it possible for the
vibrations of the given octave to develop in freedom and without checks. Observation
of such rightly developing octaves establishes the fact that if at the necessary moment,
that is, at the moment when the given octave passes through an ‘interval,’ there enters
into it an ‘additional shock’ which corresponds in force and character, it will develop
further without hindrance along the original direction, neither losing anything nor
changing its nature.
“In such cases there is an essential difference between ascending and descending
octaves.
“In an ascending octave the first ‘interval’ comes between mi and fa. If
corresponding additional energy enters at this point the octave will develop without
hindrance to si, but between si and do it needs a much stronger ‘additional shock’ for
its right development than between mi and fa, because the vibrations of the octave at
this point are of a considerably higher pitch and to overcome a check in the
development of the octave a greater intensity is needed.
“In a descending octave, on the other hand, the greatest ‘interval’ occurs at the very
beginning of the octave, immediately after the first do and the material for filling it is
very often found either in do itself or in the lateral vibrations evoked by do. For this
reason a descending octave develops much more easily than an ascending octave and
in passing beyond si it reaches fa without hindrance; here an ‘additional shock’ is
neces-
sary, though considerably less strong than the first ‘shock’ between do and si.
“In the big cosmic octave, which reaches us in the form of the ray of creation, we
can see the first complete example of the law of octaves. The ray of creation begins
with the Absolute. The Absolute is the All. The All, possessing full unity, full will,
and full consciousness, creates worlds within itself, in this way beginning the
descending world octave. The Absolute is the do of this octave. The worlds which the
Absolute creates in itself are si. The ‘interval’ between do and si in this case is filled
by the will of the Absolute. The process of creation is developed further by the force
of the original impulse and an ‘additional shock.’ Si passes into la which for us is our
star world, the Milky Way. La passes into sol—our sun, the solar system. Sol passes
into fa—the planetary world. And here between the planetary world as a whole and
our earth occurs an ‘interval.’ This means that the planetary radiations carrying
various influences to the earth are not able to reach it, or, to speak more correctly,
they are not received, the earth reflects them. In order to fill the ‘interval’ at this point
of the ray of creation a special apparatus is created for receiving and transmitting the
influences coming from the planets. This apparatus is organic life on earth. Organic
life transmits to the earth all the influences intended for it and makes possible the
further development and growth of the earth, mi of the cosmic octave, and then of the
moon or re, after which follows another do—Nothing. Between All and Nothing
passes the ray of creation.
“You know the prayer ‘Holy God, Holy the Firm, Holy the Immortal’? This prayer
comes from ancient knowledge. Holy God means the Absolute or All. Holy the Firm
also means the Absolute or Nothing. Holy the Immortal signifies that which is
between them, that is, the six notes of the ray of creation, with organic life. All three
taken together make one. This is the coexistent and indivisible Trinity.”

“We must now dwell on the idea of the ‘additional shocks’ which make it possible
for the lines of forces to reach a projected aim. As I said before, shocks may occur
accidentally. Accident is of course a very uncertain thing. But those lines of
development of forces which are straightened out by accident, and which man can
sometimes see, or suppose, or expect, create in him more than anything else the
illusion of straight lines. That is to say, he thinks that straight lines are the rule and
broken and interrupted lines the exception. This in its turn creates in him the illusion
that it is possible to do; possible to attain a projected aim. In reality a man can do
nothing. If by accident his activity gives a result, even though it resembles only in
appearance or in name the original aim, a man assures himself and others that he has
attained the aim which he set before him-
self and that anyone else would also be able to attain his aim, and others believe him.
In reality this is illusion. A man can win at roulette. But this would be accident.
Attaining an aim which one has set before oneself in life or in any particular sphere of
human activity is just the same kind of accident. The only difference is that in regard
to roulette a man at least knows for certain whether he has lost or won on each
separate occasion, that is, on each separate stake. But in the activities of his life,
particularly with activities of the kind that many people are concerned in and when
years pass between the beginning of something and its result, a man can very easily
deceive himself and take the result ‘obtained’ as the result desired, that is, believe that
he has won when on the whole he has lost.
“The greatest insult for a ‘man-machine’ is to tell him that he can do nothing, can
attain nothing, that he can never move towards any aim whatever and that in striving
towards one he will inevitably create another. Actually of course it cannot be
otherwise. The ‘man-machine’ is in the power of accident. His activities may fall by
accident into some sort of channel which has been created by cosmic or mechanical
forces and they may by accident move along this channel for a certain time, giving the
illusion that aims of some kind are being attained. Such accidental correspondence of
results with the aims we have set before us or the attainment of aims in small things
which can have no consequences creates in mechanical man the conviction that he is
able to attain any aim, ‘is able to conquer nature’ as it is called, is able to ‘arrange the
whole of his life,’ and so on.
“As a matter of fact he is of course unable to do anything of the kind because not
only has he no control over things outside himself but he has no control even over
things within himself. This last must be very clearly understood and assimilated; at the
same time it must be understood that control over things begins with control over
things in ourselves, with control over ourselves. A man who cannot control himself, or
the course of things within himself, can control nothing.
“In what way can control be attained?
“The technical part of this is explained by the law of octaves. Octaves can develop
consecutively and continuously in the desired direction if ‘additional shocks’ enter
them at the moments necessary, that is, at the moments when vibrations slow down. If
‘additional shocks’ do not enter at the necessary moments octaves change their
direction. To entertain hopes of accidental ‘shocks’ coming from somewhere by
themselves at the moments necessary is of course out of the question. There remains
for a man the choice either of finding a direction for his activities which corresponds
to the mechanical line of events of a given moment, in other words of ‘going where the
wind blows’ or ‘swimming with the stream,’ even if this contradicts his inner
inclinations, convictions, and sympathies, or of reconciling himself to the failure of
everything he starts out
to do; or he can learn to recognize the moments of the ‘intervals’ in all lines of his
activity and learn to create the ‘additional shocks,’ in other words, learn to apply to his
own activities the method which cosmic forces make use of in creating ‘additional
shocks’ at the moments necessary.
“The possibility of artificial, that is, specially created, ‘additional shocks’ gives a
practical meaning to the study of the law of octaves and makes this study obligatory
and necessary if a man desires to step out of the role of passive spectator of that which
is happening to him and around him.
“The ‘man-machine’ can do nothing. To him and around him everything happens. In
order to do it is necessary to know the law of octaves, to know the moments of the
‘intervals’ and be able to create necessary ‘additional shocks.’
“It is only possible to learn this in a school, that is to say, in a rightly organized
school which follows all esoteric traditions. Without the help of a school a man by
himself can never understand the law of octaves, the points of the ‘intervals,’ and the
order of creating ‘shocks.’ He cannot understand because certain conditions are
necessary for this purpose, and these conditions can only be created in a school which
is itself created upon these principles.
“How a school is created on the principles of the law of octaves will be explained in
due course. And this in its turn will explain to you one aspect of the union of the law
of seven with the law of three. In the meantime it can be said only that in school
teaching, a man is given examples of both descending (creative) and ascending (or
evolutionary) cosmic octaves. Western thought, knowing neither about octaves nor
about the law of three, confuses the ascending and the descending lines and does not
understand that the line of evolution is opposed to the line’ of creation, that is to say, it
goes against it as though against the stream.
“In the study of the law of octaves it must be remembered that octaves in their
relation to each other are divided into fundamental and subordinate. The fundamental
octave can be likened to the trunk of a tree giving off branches of lateral octaves. The
seven fundamental notes of the octave and the two ‘intervals,’ the bearers of new
directions, give altogether nine links of a chain, three groups of three links each.
“The fundamental octaves are connected with the secondary or subordinate octaves
in a certain definite way. Out of the subordinate octaves of the first order come the
subordinate octaves of the second order, and so on. The construction of octaves can be
compared with the construction of a tree. From the straight basic trunk there come out
boughs on all sides which divide in their turn and pass into branches- becoming
smaller and smaller, and finally are covered with leaves. The same process goes on in
the construction of the leaves, in the formation of the veins, the serrations, and so on.
“Like everything in nature the human body which represents a certain whole bears
both within and without the same correlations. According to the number of the notes
of the octave and its ‘intervals,’ the human body has nine basic measurements
expressed by the numbers of a definite measure. In individuals these numbers of
course differ widely but within certain definite limits. These nine basic measurements,
giving a full octave of the first order, by combining in a certain definite way pass into
measurements of subordinate octaves, which give rise in their turn to other
subordinate octaves, and so on. In this way it is possible to obtain the measurements of
any member or any part of the human body as they are all in a definite relationship
one to another.”
The law of octaves naturally gave rise to a great many talks in our group and to
much perplexity. G. warned us all the time against too much theorizing.
“You must understand and feel this law in yourselves,” he said. “Only then will you
see it outside yourselves.”
This of course is true. But the difficulty was not only in this. Merely a “technical”
understanding of the law of octaves requires a lot of time. And we returned to it
continually, sometimes making unexpected discoveries, sometimes again losing what
had seemed to us already established.
It is now difficult to convey how at different periods now one and now another idea
became the center of gravity in our work, attracted the greatest attention, gave rise to
most talks. The idea of the law of octaves became in its way a permanent center of
gravity. We returned to it on every occasion; we spoke of it and discussed its various
aspects at every meeting until we began gradually to think of everything from the
point of view of this idea.”

The President of The United States
Mr. Donald Trump

Mr. President,

When the planetary leaders get too identified with the new scientific discoveries and miss the knowledge of the previously mentioned Universal Laws of Three and Seven that operate the entire Universe, democracy unavoidably turns to its opposite, and humanity finds itself exactly in a situation like we are facing today.
It refers to an ancient tale about the magician, who has many sheep and keeps control over them by a simple method of hypnotizing them and persuading them, that actually they are not sheep at all but lions, eagles or magicians. That he is loving them and they do not have to worry about anything as he would take care of them. So the sheep never run away and quietly waited for the time when the magician would need their flesh. Were they not hypnotized, they would seek to find the way out and they would find it as I did myself.
All the spying and terroristic endeavours the United States have accused me of could be linked to this old Eastern tale of the forgotten way to a higher level of consciousness. I know that in order to seek the truth one needs the right knowledge,  teachers, the school and the body that is capable to undertake such endeavour.

So anything that harms the body needs to be eliminated. Without going into many details, I can surely say that life on our planet has been organized in a way that goes exactly in the opposite direction.
Military psychotronic technologies,  geoengineering, and smart technologies keep humanity hypnotized to their maximum and devastate the planet in many ways, they  are used for illegal experimentation and torture and they even harvest the much-needed energy from human bodies for monetary gains.
 Biowarfare and vaccinations experiment with their DNA structures and contaminate their minds, blood, and bodily organs. Farmaceutical drugs suppress their natural reactions and our ability to transform their energies for spiritual gains. The agriculture gets genetically modified and chemical industry contaminates the soil, fauna and flora, thus cuts us off Nature’s nutritional support for the evolution of consciousness, man’s forgotten birthright.
All this together  causes excessive harm to the natural cycle of  reciprocal maintenance of our planet.
If someone has access to such knowledge, if he knows, that such path is unsustainable and will lead to the destruction of life on a major scale, is it not the higher moral principle that will lead him to bring the attention of the general public to it? That is precisely what Mr. Assange did 10 years ago.
Mr President, I am under the military martial law for many reasons and Mr. Assange is detained  in prison and legally blamed for all of them on my behalf, which seems indeed cruel retribution.
He will enter into American history as one of its darkest reflections of the unconscious interpretations  of once consciously created laws.
None of us is the enemy of your country and both of us are able to look at the planetary issues from the  cosmological point of view.  
Humanity has entered a new evolutionary era where the old concept of an enemy needs to be re-defined beyond the military, political, economic and nationalistic boundaries.
The scientific mysteries of the Universe already manifest themselves in many fields of science yet officially they have not been acknowledged.  
 No one explains to the general public their attributes,  possibilities,  responsibilities and the overall real destiny of man connected with them. How then can a man be expected to think and behave in a more conscious way? Impossible. Therefore one must assume that there is an intentional plan to keep it that way as long as possible, which again suggests that the principle of the Ray of Creation has been only superficially understood. The consequences are breathtaking, everywhere, mainly in the fields of secular science.
As long as real conscientious journalism is suppressed into mere symbols without the keys in the mainstream media and its creators blocked by the internet providers or kept in prisons, the predictions from the past epochs might really materialize. Something I was hoping to be prevented by the human mind of the 21.st century. Very likely the artificial mind persuaded it to be impossible. Mr. President, the Universe is spiritual and artificial intelligence can predict only unconscious  behaviour. Our souls belong to our CREATOR who is on our side of the battle, not to any secular science or a magician.

Most respectfully

Dagmar Palmerova

The Way

Our planet, which is the mother of all of us, clearly indicates that our current way of life and the system of values ​​we profess is unsustainable because it contradicts the objective laws of the Universe, under which, like the whole universe, we fall. Even with the naked eye, it is possible to observe air pollution by geoengineering operations, which together with military psychtronic systems are used to control the weather on a global scale and interfere with the planet’s natural electromagnetic field, with which all nature, including man, is harmoniously connected. The moment we change it, we disrupt the wellbeing of all living things without realizing the real causes. A detailed study of esoteric sources of the Fourth Way shows that electricity as one of the three sacred substances contained in the atmosphere participates in the endless processes of origin, maintenance and cessation of life on Earth, and the violation of its even distribution throughout the atmosphere nota bene its depletion directly influences psyche of all external forms of life, including man. In such a situation, humanity ceases to fulfill its functions for which it was created and degenerative tendencies occur, both physical and intellecual and mental. With almost 8 billion people choosing the path of life and intelligence in a digital and mechanized way, completely dependent on this sacred substance, maintaining a strictly measured amount of electricity is the main principle that humanity must obey so that it does not have to be lawfully rebalanced not only between continents, but also between the planets of the entire solar system, with which we are interconnected. Let the continent of Atlantis be our point of reference.

Another pitfall is atheistic science, which has already reached the border of the visible and invisible world, still in complete ignorance of the purpose of life on Earth and the true function of man, and the result of its research is the most destructive and enslaving weapons system of directed energies that attack remotely and invisibly man in the most sensitive parts of his body and mind, reserved only for him and his Creator. A quote “one has nowhere to lay one’s head” comes across one’s mind.

The field of genetic biology has become a direct threat to all species, because the decipherment of the genomes of all physiological forms of existence has become the impetus for headless experimentation with them, without knowledge of the laws of the world of electricity and divine magnetism that determine them. The key to the symbol of Noah’s Ark.

The secularization of science as a result of Darwin’s never-confirmed theory of natural evolution affects scientifically, politically, socially, and culturally virtually the entire planet, including countries of the East that are traditionally spiritually oriented, such as India.

Under these conditions, it is completely unpredictable what scientists around the planet will discover and with what form of new destruction they can come up with.

Think tanks, dealing with futuristic perspectives, solve the situation by gradually digitalizing the bodies of humanity of the entire planet, through which it can be totally controlled, as is clear from my case. The social credit, introduced in China, is already functional, the Western world is psychologically preparing for it, so far conditionally in case of sudden necessity.

The problem of electricity & resources some think tanks summed up in the equation 15% depopulation = 10 years 50% of GDP.

However, nowhere is mentioned man’s connection with ABSOLUTE, nor is the Fourth Industrial Revolution opposed by the Fourth Way, which clearly states that the number of humanities on the planet is not random at all, but is controlled by Nature, which is responsible for transforming energies for specific cosmic purposes. Man, as the only creature on this planet, has the privilege of creating vibrations either in a quantitative way just like the rest of nature, or in a qualitative way, given the way of life he leads.
The first – quantitative way – leads to an increase in the planet’s populations, degradation of vibrations from their radiation and shortening of life.
The second – qualitative way – leads to a decrease in the population, to an increase in vibrations from its radiation and to prolong life. The population graph is a good indicator of either way.

It would be very appropriate for planetary eugenics and think tanks to know about this esoteric information. It would then be easier to apply essential knowledge to the life of the entire planet, to introduce to humanity the self-governing system instead of social credit system in order to make the necessary transition from the war mentality of Dark Ages to the Age of peace and friendship, in which we learn to operate the fundamental forces of the Universe non-destructively and direct our scientific resources to the higher dimensions of the cosmic worlds of electricity & magnetism and their laws. about which we do not yet know enough but they are indicated in the Conscious Scriptures of the East and West. (-LUKE 22:51, Quantum field in Vedas)

But for this it is absolutely necessary that the CREATOR be returned to humanity and that the scientific, rational path of the creation of the world be explained to people.

If humanity remains connected to artificial intelligence and strives to achieve immortality on the line of time without being aware of its connection to ABSOLUTE, we cannot miss the predictions from Revelations.

This information, given in the most basic form, is I think necessary for a more comprehensive view of the current situation and for constructive communication between the various ‘true information & knowledge‘ centers that have to be synchronized for common understanding that will allow to unite the opposite forces into one, powerful enough to solve the planetary problems, overreaching the competences of individual states, no matter how powerful they are.

Jak dál?

Naše planeta, která je nám všem matkou zcela zřetelně naznačuje, že náš dosavadní  způsob života a systém hodnot, které vyznáváme  je neudržitelný, protože odporuje objektivním zákonům Universu, pod které stejně jako celý vesmír spadáme. I pouhým okem je možné pozorovat znečištění atmosféry geoinženýrskými operacemi, které jsou spolu s vojenskými psychotronickými systémy používány k řízení  počasí v globálním měřítku a zasahují do přirozeného elektromagnetického pole planety, se kterým je harmonicky spjata celá příroda včetně člověka. V momentě, kdy ho změníme, narušujeme wellbeing všeho živého, aniž bychom si uvědomovali pravé příčiny. Podrobným studiem esoterických pramenů Čtvrté cesty se lze dočíst, že elektřina jako jedna ze tří posvátných substancí, obsažených v atmosféře se zúčastňuje nekonečných procesů vzniku, udržování  a zániku života na všech planetách a porušení jejího rovnoměrného rozvrstvení po celé atmosféře  či dokonce její vyčerpání se přímo úměrně projevuje na psychice všech externích forem života včetně člověka. V takové situaci přestává lidstvo splňovat své funkce, pro které bylo stvořeno a dochází k degeneračním tendencím  jak fyzickým, tak intelektuálním i psychickým. Při téměř 8 miliardách lidí, kteří zvolili cestu vývoje života a  inteligence digitálním a mechanizovaným způsobem, zcela závislým  na této posvátné substanci, je zachování  striktně vyměřeného množství elektřiny tím nejhlavnějším principem, kterému se musí lidstvo podřídit. Jinak by muselo dojít k jejímu zákonnému vybalancovávání nejen mezi kontinenty, ale i mezi planetami celého solárního systému, se kterými jsme vzájemně provázáni. Kontinent Atlantis nám budiž orientačním bodem.
Dalším úskalím je atheistická věda, která se již dostala na rozhraní světa viditelného a neviditelného, stále v naprosté ignoranci o příčině existence života na Zemi a pravé funkci člověka  a výsledkem jejího výzkumu jsou zatím ty nejničivější a nejzotročujícnější zbraně přímých energií, které dálkově a neviditelně atakují člověka v nejcitlivějších částech jeho těla i mysli, až doposud vyhrazené jedině jemu a jeho Stvořiteli.
Pole genetické biologie se stalo přímo postrachem pro vše živé, protože rozluštění genomů všech fyziologických existenčních forem se stalo popudem k bezhlavé experimentaci s nimi, bez znalosti zákonů světa elektřiny a božského magnetismu, které je determinují. Klíč k symbolu Noemovy archy.
Sekularizace vědy jako důsledek Darwinovy nikdy nepotvrzené teorie přirozené evoluce ovlivňuje vědně, politicky, společensky i kulturně prakticky celou planetu, včetně zemí Východu,  které jsou tradičně spirituálně zaměřené, jako např. Indie.
Za těchto podmínek je naprosto nepředvídatelné,  co vědci po celé planetě objeví a s jakou formou nového druhu destrukce mohou přijít
Think tanky, zabývající se futuristickými prognózami  situaci řeší postupnou digitalizací těl lidstva celé planety, jejíž prostřednictvím ho lze totálně ovládat, jak je názorně patrné z mého případu. Společenský kredit zavedený v Číně je již funkční, západní svět je na něj psychologicky připravován, zatím podmíněně pro případ nenadálé nutnosti.

Problém elektřiny některé think tanky shrnuly do rovnice buď/anebo: 15% depopulace=10 let 50% HDP

Ovšem ani slovo o spojení člověka s ABSOLUTNEM, ani o Čtvrté cestě (jako náhradě za čtvrtou průmyslovou revoluci), která zcela jasně říká, že množství lidstva na planetě není vůbec náhodné, ale je řízené Přírodou, která má na starosti transformace energií pro specifické kosmické účely. Člověk jako jediný tvor na této planetě má výsadu generovat  vibrace buď kvantitativní cestou stejně jako zbytek přírody, nebo kvalitativní cestou, danou způsobem života, který vede. První – kvantitativní způsob- vede ke zvyšování populací planety, degradaci  vibrací z  radiací člověka a ke zkracování života. Druhý – kvalitativní způsob – vede ke snižování počtu obyvatelstva, ke zvyšování vibrací z jeho radiace a k prodlužování života.  Není třeba se ptát, který způsob používáme.
Bylo by velice vhodné, kdyby planetární eugenici, think tanky a především obyvatelstvo o této esoterické informaci věděli. Stačilo by potom aplikovat vědění na život celé planety a velice brzy by mohlo dojít k nezbytné mentální transformaci z věku válečného do věku míru a přátelství, ve kterém se máme učit zacházet nedestruktivně s fundamentálními silami Universu a pronikat do tajemství kosmických světů elektřin a jejich zákonů, jež jsou nám ještě skryty.
Ale k tomu je naprosto nezbytné, aby byl lidstvu navrácen jejich TVŮRCE a byla mu vysvětlena vědecká, naprosto racionální cesta stvoření světa.

Pokud zůstane lidstvo připojené k umělé inteligenci a bude se snažit dosáhnout nesmrtelnosti na linii času, aniž by si bylo vědomo svého spojení s ABSOLUTNEM, nemohou nás neminout předpovědi z Revelations.

Tyto informace podané v nejzákladnější formě jsou myslím nutné ke komplexnějšímu pohledu na současnou situaci z globálního hlediska a ke konstruktivní komunikaci mezi různými centry pravých informací, které je třeba sesynchronizovat pro maximální koncentraci sil, nezbytných k řešení planetárních problémů, které přesahují jednotlivé kompetence i těch nejmocnějších států.

Nothingness

Summarizing of  the few aspects of the existential knowledge available to us from the ancestors as the means to communicate more easily.
Because of the history of violence and hatred, connected with the low level of out vibrations, the question of Jewish, Muslim and Christian faith is traditionally brought up to the surface and the 21th century should deal with it on a deeper level  because last century we created physical concentration camps  to hide our atrocities  from the public, but today we have  psychotronic technologies on hands which allow us to place the virtual concentration camps straight into our very  bodies and we can destroy ourselves with one single vibration without even knowing it.
One way would be to look at it from the top, from the available concepts of CREATION because their  metaphysicality of Emptiness/ Nothingness can obstructs the right understanding of the internal world that governs the external.  
The concept of the Tree of Life more or less  unites all religions into one:

The top- Absolute/Sunyata/Emptiness is a place to be clarified.
For that another graph will serve as a useful means:

It is hard to grasp the distinctions between them but in the Food Diagram there is a needed information to it:
The (SUN)ABSOLUTE is on the top and the (HOLY THE FIRM) ABSOLUTE/ NOTHINGNESS  on the bottom.  HOLY THE FIRM  is said to be connected with the SUN ABSOLUTE and it is represented as an incomplete hydrogen 6144, a hydrogen without the HOLY GHOST.
[“Each complete hydrogen is composed of carbon, oxygen and nitrogen. Now take the last hydrogen of the third scale, hydrogen 3072. This hydrogen is composed of carbon 512, oxygen 1536 and nitrogen 1024. Now further: nitrogen becomes carbon for the next triad, but there is no oxygen for it and no nitrogen. Therefore by condensation it becomes itself hydrogen 6144, but it is a dead hydrogen without any possibility of passing into anything further, a hydrogen without the HOLY GHOST.”] ISOM.

Further understanding comes through the emotional centres, not through the mental/intellectual centres:

[“After a certain rate of vibration everything in the Universe becomes psychological. Air and light= psychological food. The transmutation of substances.” ] The Unknowable G.

It is vital for all academics of every field to understand, that NOTHINGNESS on the level of the ABSOLUTE is a psychological equivalent to the vacuum in physics. I testify that it  is an ABSOLUTELY FRIGHTENING space of absolute nothingness of any form perceived by any of our senses,  where  none of the loving emanations of the SUN ABSOLUTE penetrate. It is more merciful to encounter the EVIL. From that I imply that The HOLY GHOST must be the force of LOVE of the ABSOLUTE, the third, reconciling force of the Law of 3.
I strongly suggest the science wakes up or is woken up  to the fact that we are at the threshold of the internal world that can be fully accessed only via the emotional centre as a sole gate to the ‘higher emotional’ and ‘higher intellectual’ centres of man, where the REAL KNOWLEDGE resides but is inaccessible to us by our dreadfully low level of vibrations we operate on. It can be compared to inability to catch certain radio stations in the areas of bad perceptions..
The artificial intelligence is hardly going to increase them, so the utter concentration on the technocratic evolution of the mental/physical faculties of man seems to be a region for  human intelligence’s innovations.  The current level of psychopatic ‘life exercise’ of flooding and coronavirus across the planet would certainly suggest that.

The 5G map makes a reader aware of the differences between the zones in the Northern hemisphere and their interconnection with the density of the populations and therefore different political agendas.

It could be a product of someone’s imagination, inspired by Shikasta, it could be an adaptation of a megalomaniac perception of the esoteric world. It could be anything. But whatever it is, it should not be a pre-planned scenario that came to existence out of man’s inability to manage THE CREATOR’S WORK successfully.

Use this door, this opportunity and be transformed

Osho says, “When the society is in a turmoil and everything is in crisis, a chaos pervades – this is the moment, if you want, you can escape from the prison.”

Osho 1975

It has been said that in times of great stress – social, economic, religious – that great good is possible. Is this formulation reflective of what we are in Poona experiencing in your presence?

Yes, a time of crisis is a very valuable time. When everything is established and there is no crisis things are dead. When nothing is changing and the grip of the old is perfect, it is almost impossible to change yourself. When everything is in a chaos, nothing is static, nothing is secure, nobody knows what is going to happen the next moment – in such a chaotic moment – you are free, you can change. You can attain to the innermost core of your being.

It is just like in a prison: when everything is settled it is almost impossible for any prisoner to get out of it, to escape from the prison. But just think: there has been an earthquake and everything is disturbed and nobody knows where the guards are and nobody knows where the jailer is, and all rules have dissolved, and everybody is running on his own – in that moment if a prisoner is a little alert he can escape very easily; if he is foolish, only then will he miss the opportunity.

When the society is in a turmoil and everything is in crisis, a chaos pervades – this is the moment, if you want, you can escape from the prison. It is so easy because nobody is guarding you, nobody is after you. You are left alone. Things are in such a shape that everybody is bothering about his own business – nobody is looking at you. This is the moment. Don’t miss that moment.

In great crisis periods, always, much enlightenment has happened. When the society is established and it is almost impossible to rebel, to go beyond, not to follow the rules, enlightenment becomes very, very difficult – because it is freedom; it is anarchy. In fact it is moving away from society and becoming individual. The society doesn’t like individuals: it likes robots who just look like individuals but are not individuals. The society doesn’t like authentic being. It likes masks, pretenders, hypocrites, but not real persons because a real person is always trouble. A real person is always a free person. You cannot enforce things on him; you cannot make a prisoner out of him; you cannot enslave him. He would like to lose his life, but he would not like to lose his freedom.

Freedom is more valuable to him than life itself. Freedom is the highest value for him. That’s why in India we have called the highest value moksha, nirvana; those words mean freedom – total freedom – absolute freedom.

Whenever society is in a turmoil and everybody is tending his own business – has to tend – escape. In that moment the doors of the prison are open, many cracks are in the walls, the guards are not on duty… one can escape easily.

The same situation was at the time of Buddha, twenty-five centuries before. It always comes in a circle; the circle completes in twenty-five centuries. Just as a circle completes in one year – again summer comes back, one year’s circle and the summer is back – there is a great circle of twenty-five centuries. Every time after twenty-five centuries, the old foundations dissolve; the society has to lay new foundations. The whole edifice becomes worthless; it has to be demolished. Then economic, social, political, religious – all systems – are disturbed. The new is to be born; it is a birth pain.

There are two possibilities. One, one is the possibility that you may start fixing the old falling structure: you may become a social servant and you may start making things more stable. Then you miss, because nothing can be done: the society is dying. Every society has a life-span and every culture has a life-span. As a child is born and we know the child will become a youth, will become old, and will die– seventy years, eighty years, at the most a hundred years – every society is born, is young, becomes old, has to die. Every civilization that is born has to die. These critical moments are moments of the death of the past, the old; moments of the birth of the new. You should not bother; you should not start supporting the old structure – it is going to die. If you are supporting, you may be crushed under it. This is one possibility: that you start supporting the structure. That is not going to work. You will miss the opportunity.

New is going to come.
You need not bring it.

Then there is another possibility: you may start a social revolution to bring the new. Then, too, again you will miss the opportunity, because the new is going to come. You need not bring it. The new is already coming – don’t bother about it; don’t become a revolutionary. The new will come. If the old is gone nobody can force it to remain, and if the new is there and the time has reached and the child is ripe in the womb, the child is going to be born. You need not try any Caesarean operation. The child is going to be born; don’t bother about it. Revolution goes on happening by itself; it is a natural phenomenon. No revolutionaries are needed. You need not kill the person; he is going to die himself. If you start working for a social revolution – you become a communist, a socialist – you will miss.

These are the two alternatives in which you can miss. Or you can use this time of crisis and be transformed, use it for your individual growth. There is nothing like a critical moment in history: everything is tense and everything is intense, and everything has come to a moment, to a peak, from where the wheel will turn. Use this door, this opportunity, and be transformed. That’s why my emphasis is for individual revolution.
