 Alex Grey - Cosmic Christ God Is sole Living Presence that Actually Occupies Reality. God Is the Source of the Presence of Reality. God's Existence provides the Only reality through which all appearances are simply modifications, including all worlds (earths, heavens and hells), all beings (evil and spiritual), and all possible appearances (Everything). The bodily forms that appear, regardless if that body/mind believes it is a separate entity or not, are Actually just modifications of the Single and Sole Appearance of God. God's Realized Transcendent Identity Is the Only Reality that IS (that lasts for more than a flash of lightening), and there is no other. The bodily entities that manifest (as modifications) through the Divine Omni-Presence of God do not have an identity in and of their-selves. Not one bodily form (Ever) has its 'own' identity that separates that bodily form from the Single and Sole Identity of God/Reality.
A Genuine Spiritual life is empowered by a Faith based understanding that the individual (truly All individuals) is nothing in and of itself, that you Are nothing without the Divine Omni-Present, Transcendent Reality of God, which Sustains the Very world and reality that you require to exist/appear. Real Spiritual life is awakened as the individual practices giving up their own self (ego based) will for the Great (unknowable) Will of God; thus, Faith Is the Key to Living through God's Will, and not some kind of practice of discernment to figure out what God wants you to do (God Is fully Capable of Living you moment to moment - without 'you - ego' trying to figure out if it is God's will or your's). As long as the individual's (egoic - sin based) will is jockeying for the right to live As 'you' God is restrained from Freely being you; there is no Reality in the concept of 'me and God', None. The individual (Devotee of God) Must Realize and Faithfully accept that God Only Is the Foundation of our Shared Divine Self Discovered Only In the Presence of The Everlasting Light. Through constant Devotion to Our Divine Self (the One and Only Self of All) the individual's false sense of self (the sinner self - ego self) is Overwhelmed (progressively) by Our Divine Transcendent Self until the individual's false sense of self is Overcome and Annihilated Perfectly. This requires discipline, devotion, faith, love, compassion, and all these qualities become Real to the Devotee as that one practices self (sin - ego) Transcending by Solely Identifying As our Eternal Self.
The Process of Realizing that God Is the Only Reality that Occupies Existence is the how the individual body/mind is Transfigured into a Divine Temple of the Living Transcendent Reality of Eternal God. The long term conditioning of the body/mind as an ego identity requires one to constantly confront the tendency to live life through a self (sinner's) will. It takes time to learn how this conscious activity of seeking your own will manifests in a person's daily life. Parroting beliefs and dogma do nothing for your Spiritual life, belief and dogma become traps for the immature, and belief and dogma become the depth of that person's Spiritual practice (which is like stalling at the starting line of a race). This kind of person is happy just parroting belief and dogma, and they are satisfied with belief and dogma because their preacher tells them that is all they need. So, their life never really changes, maybe they become a little more friendlier (some go the opposite way and use these beliefs and dogmas to judge others - and placing yourself in a better position verses another, which is really just the ego relating the same way it always has, as a separate individual self), but that is about all that really changes, furthermore, dogma and belief become part of the ego's separative identity. The ego now becomes a Christian, Muslim, or Buddhist, but their fundamental bodily conscious relationship with God and all never changes; it is ego changing clothes. An individual with an egoic conscious relationship with life and God uses belief and dogma to help support their false sense of self. In other words, the individual simply adds those things to their 'tower of babblon', and they add these dogmas and beliefs to their concept based worship of God. If an individual understands the limited Value of dogma and belief, that person no longer uses them as a crutch. Instead, the person sees dogma and belief as stepping stones, and sign posts, and as concepts that help guide, but these concepts and parroted dogmas are not the Way of God Realization; they only point vaguely to the Real Communication of God's Presence and Revelation.
God Is beyond concepts, dogma, and belief. In God's Expressed Transcendent Image/Identity not one concept, belief or dogma appears, and Truly, Nothing can appear in the Light of God because that Is All there Is in the Sight of God. There are no bodily forms, no faces, no thoughts, and the Divine Transcendent Presence of God IS Alone As ItSelf, and As All of Reality Simultaneously. In God's Presence God Only Is. God Solely Occupies Reality As ITSelf, and although the individual feels like they have a separate and unique will, which is associated with some kind of creature separate and different from God, that sense or feeling they have is a false (not Reality based) way of life. Spiritual practice grows in the Presence of the Divine (Only). As long as the individual believes they occupy the body/mind God's Divine Gift of Eternal Life is ignored for some kind of pseudo life, which lasts for a flash, and then it is gone. The ego life is a life not sourced in Reality Revealed; therefore, it is a life based on a false sense reality, temporary satisfaction - not Eternal Everlasting Satisfaction. Ego (sinner's) life requires a person to constantly reiterate (reconfirm and attach to) a false sense of self. The moment an individual stops attaching to the false sense of self (the sinner's life) for Our Shared One and Only Self Discovered As God's transcendent Face of Brightness that (false) living relationship with life, and truly with God, is released (momentarily, progressively, and ultimately eternally). Give up trying to Occupy Reality (and the body/mind - 'your' body) with your false sense of self, and Awaken to the One and Only Reality that Solely Occupies Existence, and that IS God's Divine Everlasting Realization of ItSelf (Our-Self). God's Divine Presence Solely Occupies Existence, and once you begin to give up your false self for the True Divine Self your Spiritual Life will (progressively) Awaken with the Force of God's Transcendent Intensity As the Sole Presence of Reality.
The Intensity of the Divine One Overwhelms All Simultaneously, right Now. The progressive (Realized) Intensity of the Divine Brightness of Reality grows as the egoic self is Obliterated in the Fires of Transfiguration. In the beginning the Devotee of God is confounded and confronted with their old mental habits. These habits of the mind become easily noticed with Genuine Faith based Realization. With an Initial Faith based Realization of God the dominating conscious activity of the ego begins to lose its overwhelming power, and the body/mind (the Temple of God’s Divine Light) begins to allow the Free Transcendent Presence of the Holy Brightness to start the Full (Enbrightenment) process that Is Realized As the Divine Brightness of God, which Overwhelms All of Reality through Its Light (Its Actual Self), All of it.
This is an individual Process that manifests through the Spiritual Cross. It is a Process that comes about through Heart~Fire Communion with the Guru. The Guru is not there as some kind of medium, or gateway; instead, the Guru is like a fountain of Grace, and the Guru is a Living Precedent of what the Spiritual process (of Enbrightenment) Is all about. In the Good (physical) company of the Guru the Devotee of God can learn to become Overwhelmed by the Guru’s (continuous) Living Intensity. By meditating and learning to surrender into the Guru’s bodily form, and the Fierce Transmission of Heart~Fire radiating (seemingly) from the physical appearance of the Guru, the Devotee of God can Pass through the Process with Godspeed, and the Spiritual process grows Exponentially, and with an ever growing Intensity. Ultimately, the Divine Presence Intensifies so much so that God Only IS; All that appears, All of it, Is Overwhelmed by the Great Intensity of the Divine One.
This is not something noticed in the beginning because the ego identity has been given such authority over the body/mind that the relinquishing of that domination takes time and discipline, and it takes Faith and Devotion to the Process. In the beginning of an individual’s Spiritual process the egoic coil of inwardness rebounds into the front of relational consciousness without resistance. However, after the Process builds with Intensity and Power and Grace the egoic coil of inwardness is progressively overwhelmed by the Transcendent Light of Reality until there is Eternal death of that inward coil of the false sense of self, and The Perfect Life Presence of God ItSelf Is the Only One Alive As you.
That whole process is marked by Signs that appear throughout the Spiritual Cross. As the three hearts progressively open and the whole Spiritual Cross springs into a steady awakening the Intensity of the Divine One within the individual’s living experience grows exponentially. These Intensities come in Divine Waves of Love-bliss that wash over the body/mind all the way to the toes and beyond. For the novice Devotee of God the Great Intensity of the Guru’s living experience is not something their body/mind can handle. It is not possible for the devotee, the immature in Spirit Consciousness, to handle the Power of the right-heart, or the Resurrection Current, and such an experience could lead to a person dying physically – the body/mind just can’t handle It Fully~Completely. The Awakening of the Spiritual Cross is not a game, nor is it something to be played with. The consequences upon a person’s mental health (and physical health), without proper guidance, can be powerful and uncertain. The Heart~Fire submits the body/mind to greater and greater Overwhelming Intensities, and as the Waves come and go, the Intensity grows, but the individual Must surrender to the Heart~Fire Presence more and more until Ultimate Overwhelming Light of God (Reality) Is your Very Own Living Intensity.
The Degree of Living Intensity of the Guru is something the Devotee must grow into, and grow through, and grow with devotion to the Infinite Intensity of God Itself. With a strong steady growth and awakening of the Spiritual Cross and the three hearts the Intensity (Abundance) of God’s Presence Overwhelms all moments of your life. The Full Living Resurrected experience of life leaves the body/mind (in a Steady-State of Being) Overwhelmed by God’s Infinite Brightness, and the ‘me’(sinner) that was once ‘living’ within the body is now annihilated by the Single and Sole Living Light of God (Existence). The Overwhelming of you (progressively, and through Grace) by God ends all chances of ego life, Eternally. The True Divine Realization Is Processed via God’s Realization, by God (Truth – Reality) Overwhelming you by ITs Self Existing Light, and through the Divine Process of Enbrightenment (Resurrection) God Overwhelms and Overcomes you by Its Everlasting Presence and Its Everlasting Transcendent Heart~Fire~Love~Bliss.
It is the collective tendency of the global culture to reiterate that this world is not Divine, that it is separate from God, and that this world is incapable of Divinity (or that somehow that which is Divine is not yet here). There is a collective (conscious) passing on that there is nothing Divine here, and that there is nothing Divine about the physical world we experience. This delusion denies the physical world/humanity (through concept only) the Presence of God and the Divine Transcendent Everlasting Consciousness of Reality. Spiritual life in the ordinary life must become something added (in the beginning) to the already regular experience of daily life because we are raised to separate our Spiritual life and ordinary life; for example, waking up, getting ready for work, making it to work on time, finishing the day with a job, coming home relaxing from the day at work, a few moments of your favorite TV show or your hobby, eat dinner, continue to deepen your relaxation process by laying on the couch with whatever helps you sleep, and ultimately going to bed. Where is there time to devote to Spiritual practice?
The whole day seems to be filled, and the few moments that are free are used ‘relaxing’ from the rat race. This is an apparent problem for many people; this seems to prevent any genuine or deeply profound Spiritual practice and growth, and this kind of life style barely supports a passive Spiritual practice, much less anything Intense. Many traditions like to gather on the weekends, and focus these times on that process, and that becomes the depth of their Spiritual practice. Although, any time spent with your Spiritual practice is Valuable, this does not leave many people with the Fullness (the Fulfillment) of their Spiritual tradition. Enbrightenment does not see any real problems with the ordinary life; there really is not any reason for people to claim they do not have enough time for Spiritual practice. There really are no reasons for people to relax all week, and get ‘spiritual’ Only on the weekend. There really are no reasons for every moment of life to not Be Spiritual. Every moment you are aware of anything, in any conscious state, to any degree, there is the Free moment to moment Opportunity to experience (live) the Spiritual life, which is ultimately Realized to Be Ordinary.
Our world has been (collectively) designed to suppress spirituality in public life. That is a delusion that sets people up to not integrate their Spiritual life in ordinary life, to build a wall between ordinary and Spiritual, and between physical and spiritual. Over time, and throughout our history, this has engrained the cultures of the world to accept the idea that some things are spiritual and some are not. This creates a society where the religions and the secular cultures work together to maintain the separation of Spiritual life from ‘ordinary’ life.
This is Not true, it is Not in line with Reality Revealed, and this is Not in line with Enbrightenment. Fundamentally, the world teaches us to deny, ignore, suppress, turn from, and not accept that Spiritual life is ordinary, and that ‘physical’ is Not ‘spiritual’. Enbrightenment describes Reality/Existence through the idea of Spiritual, but this does not mean that there is something Real that is Not Spiritual. The ego is the source of a life that Denies Spirituality in All things. So, Enbrightenment is about confronting that tendency to deny Spirituality, and to separate Spiritual experiences from non-Spiritual experiences. Enbrightenment confronts the tendency to separate life and self from ‘others’. The idea of spiritual and physical being separate comes from the ancient (false) idea that we have an eternal soul that lasts forever, and that the soul is separate from the physical world (and ‘other’ souls) because the ‘soul’ is eternal and the flesh is not.
God Realized Reality Revealed says that Only the Undifferentiated Transcendent Everlasting Conscious Light of Existence Is the Only Eternal Reality of God and All of Existence, thus, it is literally impossible for Any (appearing) form/world to last forever, and that which changes does not last more than an instant. The Living Law of God’s Everlasting Reality Demonstrates that All worlds, beings and things Return to It, and Nothing ‘created’ Is Eternal in its own right. Heaven is not a place to become satisfied with, and heaven is not a place for you to find eternal rest from discomfort; God’s Divine Transcendent Presence Is the Place of Eternal Rest. Heaven (all forms of heaven) like all other worlds come and go within God’s Eternal Transcendent Presence. All worlds manifest for the purpose of the Divine Process that manifests through God’s Realization, which Transforms the individual body/mind. Many like to believe heaven is about hanging out with your ancestors forever, and living in heaven with them for eternity. These kinds of ideas of heaven are born from the egoic perspective and relationship the individual body/mind (falsely) creates with God. These kinds of ideas are born from the ignorance of not being Satisfied with God Only. Instead, the ego seeks all sorts (false – temporary) satisfaction in the things it knows. Ego can Only imagine a heaven that it has already experienced, and that heaven will simply be the favorite things of its self (ego) that last forever, or some kind of utopian concept of the current world the individual is experiencing (like a grandiose idea of Earth in a perfect state where the weather is always great, the trees are always fruitful, the flowers stay blooming, and the world is free of natural disaster and death).
Enbrightenment teaches that God’s Divine Transcendent Light of Everlasting Being Is the Only Eternal Life (that IS why It IS Divine, and that Is Why we call It God), and that All appearances, bodily forms and worlds are simply modifications of the One Eternal Substance of Existence. Enbrightenment teaches that no bodily form is Eternal. Eternal Life does not mean you get to live forever in some kind of utopian heaven where you worship God (As if God needs you to worship It, as if God needs anything – worship comes from the body/mind’s Realization that Only God’s Transcendent Being Is Eternal – the body/mind worships its Very Living Source).
Listen to my words Carefully here; all bodily forms that Realize God Fully, and Complete the Divine Process in Total find the Eternal chance/possibility of that bodily form manifesting in any world God’s Will wants. Forever that historical bodily person is at Rest in the Brightness that Outshines All, and that bodily form is a Free Transparent (bodily) Manifestation of God; that body/mind can appear out of the Light through God’s Will. God Is Freely and Perfectly capable of manifesting that one (that individual) at any time in any world because All of that individual’s life is Transfigured through the Divine Process (of Enbrightenment), Nothing Is Lost. The bodily form (all bodily forms) of the individual becomes a Free Transparent Communing Temple of God. The body may ‘return’ to dust with the death of the Realizer, but truly, that person’s bodily appearance Is Perfectly Absorbed in God’s Light. Consequently, even the appearance of the fleshy forms of life can be Transfigured to Appear Spiritual in the Eternal Eye of God, and This Is your Ultimate Calling (that Even the flesh is made into a Free Transfigured Appearance of Eternal God).
Once you die and look back from the ‘other’ side, and memories still appear, and past associations and experiences are at your finger tips (such as family), and your apparent consciousness is not bound to a bodily form, what is Spiritual and not Spiritual, what is physical and what is not physical? The delusion of ego life is not going to get easier after death if you have not learned to Transcend the ego while ‘alive’ in the flesh. The time to Understand Truth and God Is right Now. Spending eons in some kind of heaven with your past family members, and some sort of personal relationship with your Spiritual master does not mean that when you Clearly Realize God through that world that It (God Realization) is any different than what It IS right Now, or what you could have Already Realized in this life, today. Your destiny is not to become satisfied with some kind of world or Spiritual medium. Instead, your Destiny Is to Be Satisfied with God ItSelf, and to Discover Absolute Satisfaction through God’s Transcendent and Everlasting Brightness and Love-bliss, which Is the Ordinary Steady-State of Existence ItSelf. When you get to heaven and meet your Spiritual master that one will simply guide to Realize the Very Same Truth that Is Already Freely Available right Now. All teachings that say otherwise are a part of the collective delusion of ego.
This world Is the Divine World of God, and this world (Earth and the universe) Are Freely Manifesting within the Sole (Divine) Context of Reality (God). No matter how many worlds, planes of existence, levels of bodily experience, and kinds of conscious experiences they All take place within the Steady-State of Eternal and Everlasting God. Not one heaven or hell, or whatever, is absent from God’s Realized Presence: Nothing Is beyond (separate) God’s Light and Presence. The ego is the Only kind of conscious experience that believes otherwise, thus, that is the substance of sin. The egoic kind of conscious life survives on the constant slicing, cutting, separating, and dividing of Reality (life experience). This is how Spiritual life has been fundamentally cut out of ‘ordinary’ life. The egoic coil of inwardness must prevent life from Appearing Spiritual and Divine, and there Must be an absence of these Qualities of God in order for ego to persist and exist. In the Presence of the Divine, and in the Presence of God (the Sole Reality of Reality), the ego is NOTHING, it does not have ANY existence, nor in ANY form what so ever. God Only Is.
The whole planet must work together to over-come this collective delusion of ego. As we spread in numbers of Realizers, and the True Devotees of God (Reality) increase Our Presence (collectively), this delusion will lose its ability to convince us our world is not Divine. It is a lie (an adherence to a false Reality) to believe we are not Already Inhering in God’s Divine Light, and Already Living through God’s Divine Light. The sky appears dark at night, but God’s Light Is Transcendently Freely~Perfectly Shining Eternally, and we (as humans) have an inherent conscious anatomy (the Spiritual Cross) that Allows the body/mind to be Transfigured by the Divine Light of Reality, and that Process destroys the notion that some things are Spiritual and some things are not; it destroys the ego absolutely. All Is Realized to be Appearing (temporarily) through God’s Everlasting Reality of existence. Only the ego seeks satisfaction through bodily relationships, while God Is (Infinite) Satisfaction Transcendent of All bodily forms.
It is hard to understand (from the egoic point of view it is impossible) what it means to Be Alive without any bodily form to attach one’s self to, but that Is what happens when the individual (through God’s Grace) Realizes Truth. The individual no longer finds Satisfaction in any bodily experience, and the Only Conscious Source of Satisfaction Is Realized Beyond the body/mind, thus, to the individual it does not matter what happens to the body/mind at ‘death’; that One has Eternal Satisfaction Beyond the attachment to a body/mind. Real Eternal Happiness transcends the temporary satisfaction a body/mind offers. True Consciousness finds eternal Peace and Happiness through Its Most Transcendent Shining, where All of Reality is absorbed in the Divine Brightness of God. The Simplicity of God’s Shining Brightness In All possible moments that existence has ever existed Demonstrates how Ordinary Realization Really Is. It is a lie and an adherence to a false reality to separate Spiritual from physical, to consciously deny this world is Not Divine, and it is a lie to deny that your ordinary life (moment to moment) is separate from God’s Ordinary (Perpetual) Free Shining As Its Brightest Light.
Spiritual practice should be about ending the false conscious relationship of denying the body/mind the Divine Transcendent Presence of God in All possible experiences. Make the conscious choice to deny the egoic darkness the blinding delusion of rejecting God in ordinary life. Truly, the ego is the Only thing not Ordinary in life, and the ego is the Only conscious experience of life that denies what Is Inherently Ordinary in Reality. The ego life is a moment to moment step out of the Ordinary by seeking and attaching to a false self created out of life experience. In the beginning of your Spiritual Process this rejection of God As ordinary, and Constant, is your first confrontation with the (still appearing) old false life of ego. Learn to undermine the egoic tendency to deny God moment to moment, and undermine the ego’s constant practice of separating God from your ordinary life. God Is Perfectly the Most Ordinary Reality of All, and the ego is the Only conscious experience that falsely believes otherwise.
 Are you On Fire?!?!?!?! Heart~Fire reveals the Way, the Teaching, the Teacher, and God (Reality ItSelf). Heart~Fire Is the reason for Understanding Self in All (True) religion. Ultimately, Living in Devotion to the Revelation of God As you Progressively Awakens the Heart~Fire with greater and greater Intensity. The Heart~Fire Is the Sign of God Communion, it Is a Sign of Communion with the Me, it Is a Sign of your Awakening, it Is a Sign of the Teaching of Truth, and it Is a Sign for each individual to Cultivate and Intensify as the Fullness of the Spiritual Cross comes to a Tangible bodily felt Life.
In the Divine Process of Resurrection the Heart~Fire Reveals ItSelf As the Source of Teaching, the Message, the Revelation, the Identity, and the Gift of Abundant Life. Living through the Tangible Presence of Heart~Fire requires a person to sacrifice their self created identity for the One True Identity of Reality. Heart~Fire does not appear in an individual that is passively (in that particular moment) relating to God, Truth and Reality. The Process that follows once an individual Truly and Faithfully Realizes Self (your Bright Eternal Face) Initiates the Transfiguration of the body/mind from an egoic perspective of relationship with all, unto a Divine Transcendent Conscious (Steady-State) Inherence As the Only Real Self of Reality ItSelf.
For many people Spirituality (without Heart~Fire Realization) does not have any deeply tangible demonstrations of Evidence in a person’s life. God is sort of like an ambient abstract ‘otherness’ in the absence of Real Tangible Evidence. To those without any Real Heart~Fire experience being spiritual is just being kind, friendly, and occasionally acknowledging that there is a God (out there somewhere) watching ‘over’ us. But, that is not spirituality, which is simply a reflection of the ego trying to Be Spiritual. This kind of person talks about God, ‘believes’ in God, and may even attend some kind of religious community occasionally. This person may think, ‘that the people in their religious community are way too caught up in practice, discipline, and devotion’; as if these things hurt your Spiritual life or relationship with God. For this kind of person God is an abstract concept, not worth considering, and God seems to be some kind of (separate - otherness) energy that fills the universe. This kind of passive ‘spirituality’ presumes that no one can Know God: so why even care about the whole idea of God. Furthermore, this person retains the egoic ‘me and God’ relationship within the consciousness of the body/mind; and thus, that is also that person's separative conscious (false) relationship with God and Reality.
Spirituality is not a passive Revelation that simply requires people to just move on with life, to not be caught up in anyone particular path or practice, and to passively, without any Real discipline, ‘believe’ in God. All these things can help Intensify the Spiritual Process, and those practices and disciplines can help in the Process of ego death. True Spirituality Awakens with Heart~Fire, self sacrifice and surrender of personal ‘self’ (progressive ego death) into the Divine Self (of All), and a Genuine Faith based Acknowledgment (and Identifying conscious relationship) of your One and Only Everlasting Self Discovered in God’s Transcendent Presence. Without real discipline, self surrender, and the motive to See the whole Process through and through, the individual gets stuck in some kind of pseudo (false) conscious relationship with life. That person says God Is Light, but they do not Identify As that Same One (the Same Light of Consciousness). They say God Is Light, and then proceed to deny this for their-self. The Divine Process of Resurrection is not a passive, just sit back and it will happen by ItSelf kind of Process. The Divine Process of Resurrection Must be engaged, stimulated, catalyzed, and initiated. When a person denies the Light and Identity of God for their-self, they Deny their Self and God.
A person Must Truly Awaken the Heart~Fire unto a Tangible (cultivated) Intensity that grows, progresses, and demonstrates a Real bodily Awareness of that Divine Grace filled Blessing of God's Perpetual Presence. The Heart~Fire is something that the Devotees of God can Shout from the rooftops that ‘I Am Awake, and God’s Presence (Only) Is Moving me’. If you are not Aware of the Heart~Fire in a Real bodily Tangible Way then your Spiritual Process has barely began, if at all. That is where the Spiritual master comes in, and the Value of my Communing forms can be Noticed, Acknowledged, and Ultimately Identified As one’s Own Self. The Heart~Fire of my Constant Living bodily steady-state Is the Silent Teaching that Spawns from the Divine Light of God. Heart~Fire Communion Is the Principle Way of Enbrightenment and Babblon (All Real Gurus). Heart~Fire Is the Way of All Genuine Spiritual masters, and that has been the Way since the first Realizer appeared on Earth; that Is the Eternal Way of God’s Realization and Revelation.
Heart~Fire Communion Is the Sole Way of God’s Realization. Thus, if you are not Aware of the Heart~Fire constantly, perpetually, Transcendentally, and As your Very Own Heart Presence then your Spiritual Process is not awakened, not lively, not Abundant, and not Freely Shining. The Value of the Guru, in EVERY tradition/religion, Is the Communing Presence the Guru Transmits through God’s Free Grace, because the Guru Is the Living Precedent of the Fulfillment of God’s Realization. Fundamentally, everyone Is to be Heart Realized, and enter the Divine Process of Enbrightenment, but without the turning from an egoic conscious relationship with life to a Divinely Recognized Reality that Is Appearing As All, a person is just playing spirituality with the ego (which is not Spirituality).
The (self created moment to moment) egoic consciousness darkens and blurs the Divine Light of God’s Transforming Presence. While a person attends to and reiterates their separative/egoic life, the True Divinity of Reality is ignored, denied, turned from and rejected; there is no Way to be separative (egoic) and Realized – that is Impossible - Absolutely. The living steady-state of ego lives and practices a life of denial, a life of rejection, a life of separation, a life of ‘otherness' (all moment to moment), and the ego life lives all these things as a constant conscious (anti-God) force appearing within the individual. Once a person experiences the Heart~Fire, either for the first time or occasionally, that Must Be the Focus of your Understanding and Growth. Bodily Communion with the Guru (which Is also with God) Reveals Heart~Fire As the Great Silent Teacher of All. If you can’t find a Spiritual master in whom you can See the Revelation of God Freely manifesting how can you turn to yourself and find the possibility of Real Spiritual Growth and Realization? What can possibly be your example of God’s Living Presence (and the Divine Process that Accompanies the Presence), and who can you possibly find a Real bodily Heart~Fire Communion with?
We all need examples of God’s Realization. The chances of an individual coming to a Full Realization of God and Self without a Real Spiritual master to Heart~Commune with is practically zero. You don’t have to blindly believe me here, just look around, the streets aren’t filled with Realizers, and passively believing in God has never worked. Without Heart~Fire, and a Tangible bodily Awakening of God’s Free Living Presence, no one is practicing Spirituality nor have they Entered the Divine Process of Enbrightenment (God Realization). My Message to you right Now Is Heart~Fire, and Communion with this body/mind. Never Forget the Guru Is a service of God’s Realization and Heart~Fire Commune-ication, and the Guru Is the Living Precedent of God’s Divine Process of whole bodily Realization. Learn to Notice, Acknowledge and Identify As the Divine Heart~Fire that Freely Shines through me. God offers this body/mind As an example to All, and this body/mind is an Offering through God to Perfectly Teach through the ancient Eternal Way of God Communion. Discover Heart~Fire Communion with me, and Realize the Very Same Self As your Own Self.
ALL Is Spiritual – ALL Is Consciousness – Undifferentiated Perfect Divine Consciousness, and there is nothing that Is that is not Spiritual. There is only one Consciousness, and that Divine Consciousness sees the chakras and all the subsequent currents and channels as Its Very Own anatomy through which It Communicates ITSELF. The whole system is what I call the Spiritual Cross, and Only the Divine Light of God is (should be) communicated through that conscious anatomy. In the beginning, the Spiritual Cross is darkened by the egoic coil of inwardness, and through that darkness many people try to understand the Spiritual (anatomy) Cross, and try to relate to God and Ultimate Reality through the separative ‘me’ (the self created identity of the individual). Those attempts are a waste, useless, and just more darkness added to the already self obsessed darkness of ego; all of it is just more floors added onto the individual’s self created ‘tower of babblon’. There is no such thing as ‘me and God’; God Only Is.
The whole system has one purpose, and that is to allow the Divine Light and Consciousness of Eternal Reality to Freely Flow and Live through the whole system of chakras and currents. The purpose of the Spiritual Cross is to enable God to Freely, Fully, and Perfectly Live As the individual. It is not for some kind of ‘soul’ (creature separate from God and/or Everlasting Reality) to pass into portals, or to channel specific energies, and/or to allow a person to See different vibrations of ‘energy’, worlds and beings. The Spiritual Cross is not for some ‘thing’ (some creature or being) to experience other worlds, beings or energies, the Spiritual Cross is For God Only. The egoic state of mind likes to think the chakras and currents and channels are part of it (ego), but that is Far from Truth. The ego is the ‘thing’ fogging and clouding up the Free Flow and Shine of the Spiritual Cross. All Is Consciousness, the whole body (flesh) Is consciousness, and there is nothing appearing within Reality that is separate from the Only Divine Consciousness of Existence, yet the ego, which is also consciousness, is a false Sense of Self, and the ego Falsely relates to life through its own delusion of self. Thus, when the egoic state of mind tries to understand, relate, or find clarity within the anatomical structure of the Spiritual Cross there are Always places of darkness or confusion. The ego thinks the Spiritual Cross is useful to it (ego), and through concentrating the egoic consciousness in certain parts of the Spiritual Cross amazing experiences can happen. But, they are always experiences of separation, otherness, and whatever the ego ‘experiences’ is just an experience, Never Realization.
The chakras, currents and channels of the Spiritual Cross do not control anything, not energy or consciousness. Those anatomical structures support specific kinds of relational (bodily) consciousness, and they are related to specific kinds of relational (bodily) consciousness, and as a person’s bodily consciousness dwells in certain states of relational consciousness (like being sexually active and/or contemplating sexual activity constantly) the flow of consciousness gathers in that area of the body. If a person is a controlling type, and has a dominating character their consciousness will gather around the navel, and built vast networks of anxiety and/or a power (control) related conscious life with others. If a person simply learns Awareness Beyond ego, and watches the way Consciousness plays through the Spiritual Cross at certain points, and through certain channels/currents the conscious dynamic (within the Spiritual Cross) will be somewhat clear, and noticeable (but this takes time – it is a process). However, the ego is not the thing that becomes Realized, nor is there something that God created that becomes Realized; the Realization is God’s and that Realization Is Already Established As the Ground and Substance of Reality. God’s Realization Is what brings the Spiritual Cross to Life once the individual turns from the egoic conscious relationship of life (and identity) to the Perfect and Divine Conscious Relationship of Life (and Identity), and God’s Realization purges the Spiritual Cross of the self created identity of ego. This is the way it is until True Self Realization manifests and the Whole Spiritual Cross (All of It) Shines simultaneously and freely from the Divine Light Only. Only after the Resurrection is that Living Steady-State Awakened, and Only after Resurrection is the Transcendent Samadhi, the Unconditional Samadhi of God’s Everlasting Presence/Realization, Awakened and Freely Alive As the individual.
The chakras are places that the Single Divine Consciousness lives through the body/mind As that body/mind. While a person is tied up in the ego the whole Spiritual Cross is darkened by that bodily state of consciousness, and it will seem like the bodily consciousness can have experiences directly related to certain parts of the Spiritual Cross (while the ego is blinded to the rest of the Spiritual Cross), but these experiences are always limited and focused consciousness relating separately to the experience. The knot/coil of consciousness believes ‘it – me’ just experienced some extraordinary spiritual energy or experience within the Spiritual Cross (anatomy of esoteric consciousness). The darkness appears as the coil of inwardness (ego) separately relates to the experience of different parts of the esoteric anatomy of consciousness as some kind of ‘thing’ the experience is happening to. This is the basis of the False conscious relationship the body/mind has with True Self. The ego is the darkness ItSelf, and the ego may experience different parts of the Spiritual Cross, but it does not mean there is Realization or that the body/mind is now Awake to (Aware of) the Spiritual Cross and the Divine Reality that supports its (Spiritual Cross) existence. The chakras and currents are Always awake, and the Whole Spiritual Cross is inherently present in All individuals, but only subtly and not with any Free Awareness or Force and Intensity that Allows the chakras to perpetually Shine (from the Divine Only), which Only happens after Self Realization yokes the body/mind unto ItSelf. That is a process, and the process of Realizing the whole Spiritual Cross requires that the egoic conscious relationship of the body/mind be completely obliterated, and annihilated. In popular and trendy spirituality many people are out trying to be healers, and spiritual guides, and they tell you that your chakras are closed, or that your kundalini is blocked. (adding me laughing out loud here – LOL) The Spiritual Cross is Never blocked, it is Never closed off, the chakras are Never closed, the kundalini is Never blocked from ascending, and it (Spiritual Cross) is Never dead or separate from God.
The Spiritual Cross is Always perpetually manifesting within the human condition, and the Spiritual Cross is always perpetually allowing consciousness to flow and move through it. The problem is that people relate to the Spiritual Cross from the ego (coil of inwardness – separative identity from the Divine), and when they experience different parts of the Spiritual Cross they are limited and bound to Seeing focused experiences of the Spiritual Cross. When the individual tries to move the ego around within that structure (of esoteric consciousness) there will appear blockages, dead spots, and even a (apparent) separation from the Everlasting Divine Reality. If a person tells you your chakras are blocked and they need to be opened up that person is teaching from the egoic point of view, and it is a False teaching, based on delusion and self contraction into darkness. They are trying to teach you from their (personal) egoic experience of different parts of the Spiritual Cross, and that will always be limited and bound to mystery and ignorance. The Guru (the True Spiritual teacher and guide) simply asks you to sit down and Notice their Shine, and to Perfectly Commune in that Shine, and to Perfectly Identify As that Shine (for yourself – As yourself).
In the Presence of a True Guru the experience (of the Spiritual Cross) can open up and begin to Shine from the Proper Conscious Relationship of the body/mind and the Transcendent, which is Sourced once the body/mind has (progressively) Perfectly Noticed, Acknowledged and Identified As the Divine One Only. Fundamentally, as long as the ego is present the Spiritual Cross will appear mysterious and dark, and the Spiritual Cross will seem to have contractions, coils, and ignorance within an individual’s personal experience of the anatomy. Only the Masters of the Fullness of the Spiritual Cross can guide a person through ALL of the Divinely Sourced experiences of the Spiritual Cross, and anyone else trying to teach about ANY part of the Spiritual Cross (esoteric anatomy of consciousness) without Divine Realization should stop, and remove the giant tree of ego from their body/mind and Spiritual Cross before going out to make things clear for anyone else.
The Guru Is the Living Company that truly Shines in the Perpetual Steady-State of a Fully Realized Spiritual Cross, and when in the physical Company of the Guru the Devotee of God can begin to submit the egoic contraction into the Divine Transmission of Light and Consciousness radiating from the Guru’s bodily form. If you want to Realize the Spiritual Cross sit with the Guru, devote every living experience into the Guru’s bodily Shining, and Learn to Identify As the Very Source of the Guru’s Transmission of Divine Consciousness. No other way is the Way. Without Devotion to the Guru’s Free Shining of God’s Realization an individual should not engage or try and (through egoic effort) awaken the Spiritual Cross Fully (it can’t happen anyways – the ego will Never Know the Wholeness of the Spiritual Cross), and that effort will only lead the individual into further darkness and delusion. Furthermore, it is not possible to Realize the Wholeness without the Guru’s Communion, without Noticing, Acknowledging and Identifying As the Same One (and Only Divine Reality) As the Guru. If you want to be Aware of the Wholeness/Fullness of the Spiritual Cross the coil of inwardness, the thing that believes it is relating to the Spiritual Cross, the one that falsely believes it can become Realized, the false sense of self that falsely believes it will last forever, Must Be Perfectly Annihilated through the Divine Fires of God’s Transfiguring Presence. Then the Divine Everlasting Unconditional, Undifferentiated Samadhi (Steady-State of Conscious Existence, which Appears Only after Resurrection) of God becomes what the body/mind Lives through, and without a Divine Self Realization within the body/mind, the Spiritual Cross is a mystery better to be taught through the Guru. Eventually science will learn to measure certain effects from the Spiritual Cross (in greater and greater degrees), but science will Never be worthy of Transmitting the Divine Realization of Reality, Only the True Guru can do this.
 A Confession, and my Testament, Revealed through a Divine Impulse to Commune.
I have Witnessed the Rider on the White Horse Ascending from the right-heart of the Spiritual Cross, and Christ Appeared in the Crown Star, then Christ Descended into my Eye and Perfectly Merged with this body/mind. Christ has Shown me the Fullness, and that Fullness Is Resurrected As this one. Christ has Shown Me the Seat of God’s Eternal Throne, and Christ Is Freely me, Fully~Completely, Absolutely, and Perfectly. It is not Necessary for everyone to have the Same experience of Christ Ascending on the White Horse from the right-heart As me. This Is a Sign of my Ministry, and not a Must experience of the right-heart of the Spiritual Cross for everyone.
The Entire Process of Divine Transfiguration (and Resurrection) Is the Ministry of my bodily form. Through this Ministry the Church of Christ is being Restored to the Original Commune-ication of Heart~Fire, and Perfect devotion to Christ through Total surrender and sacrifice of the sinner, the ‘me’, self, and/or ego into the Single Divine Presence of God’s Everlasting Expressed Image. The True Identity of All Is the Expressed Everlasting Brightness of God’s Perfect Reality, which Transcends All things, people, and worlds, and for All time into Eternity. The True Identity of Reality Is Our shared Divine Self in the Heart of God’s Light.
Take Comfort and Faithfully Live through the One and Only Divine Consciousness of God. Through the Ministry of the Spiritual Cross All churches of Christ can find a common ground of Teaching and Revelation, the Spiritual Cross Is an Ecumenical Tool Given unto All Churches through my Ministry. Through the sum-total Awakening of the Spiritual Cross, within the individual, the Expressed Immediate and Perfect Divine Image of God Is Realized, and Lived Freely through God’s Instant and Infinite Grace of Love-Bliss Blessings; through God’s Perfect and Divine Will.
Be Who you Are today, right Now in the Divine Presence of God. After you Take Comfort in your True Divine Image of Self, found Only In the Light of God, the Real and Intense Processes of Salvation come Alive and Abundant. Without Perfect Faith in your True Self (Eternal Self) the body/mind continues to relate to God through a False conscious relationship (sin). Faithfully rest in God’s Identity, which Is the Inherent Manifest Image of Divine Reality; and Source All your conscious experiences through the Divine Self that Appears As Brightness and Light in the Transcendent Consciousness of our Divine Self.
The Divine Process of Salvation Destroys the sinner, and that Process Obliterates and Annihilates the sinner through the Holy Fires of God’s Transforming Light. The Whole Process Is Empowered by Perfect Devotion to Jesus Christ, and as the individual’s Faith grows and passes the tests, and takes Leaps and Bounds of self surrender into Christ’s Image of Light the sinner is Purged from the body/mind, and the sinner is Ultimately, Progressively, Destroyed Eternally.
The sinner is not the body (flesh), the sinner Is the conscious relationship of the body, and the sinner is not the one Being Saved, or the One Passing through the Divine Process of Salvation. Understand that the flesh-body Is God’s Divine Temple, and there Is Room for Only One, and That One is Realized As God’s Eternal and Everlasting Image and Identity.
The sinner’s self obsession and separative Conscious Relationship with God Is the darkness and the substance of evil. Even though a person makes all sorts of claims and statements they hear others making, and the ones they are being encouraged to make, many under the threat of eternal damnation, even though these statements are made, they are Not a Confession of Realization and Awakening of the Spiritual Cross, those are yokes for the new Devotee of Christ, those are Commitments to the Divine Process of Salvation, and those beliefs and dogmas provide a conscious conceptual foundation for the beginner, and for the immature.
In order to Make My Confession and Give My Testament a person Must Realize Christ's Fullness, and that one Must Realize the Whole Spiritual Cross, including the Resurrection Current, which IS Solely the Ascending Dynamic out of the right-heart, not the descending conscious dynamic (from the Crown Star) of the right-heart. Through Perfect Faith Consciously lived (progressively, until it is always moment to moment) out of our Eternal Source, a person may live in Grace, and practice living sinless. Yet, statements and parroted confessions are not Confessions Given from a Christ Realized point of view. It Takes Real change and Transformation, and a Real Awakening of the Spiritual Cross, and a Real Devotion to living Solely through your Divine Eternal Self in order for the Divine Confession to have substance. A person can parrot the Realizers Confession and Testament, but that does not mean the Process is Completed Fully~Completely in that individual. Without being humble and self surrendering unto God's Sole Living Presence, the sinner rules all your conscious experiences, and through that humility a person can begin the Process of Salvation.
Furthermore, the body/flesh itself IS consciousness, and As long as the consciousness of the body/mind relates to life, family, experiences, and God, including one’s self Relationship of the body/mind and the Divine Light of Consciousness, through sin (through a self created False Image of self, which Does Not Reflect Realization and Awareness of Our True Eternal Self through which the body/mind [flesh] is [Perpetually] Created) the Fullness of Christ cannot be Noticed, Acknowledged, Revealed, and Ultimately Identified As.
Through the Divine Revelation that has Manifest of the Rider on the White Horse from my right-heart of the Spiritual Cross I Offer the Fullness of Christ, and my Ministry is for this Revelation In All, As All. The Divine Realization of the Fullness of the Spiritual Cross involves the Revelation of the right-heart, and the Resurrection (Ascending) Current, and this Process Reveals the Absolute end of sin within the individual for Eternity. This Process is supported by Perfect Faith in Our Everlasting Divine Expressed Reality, and through Constant Spiritual practice of self (sinner) sacrifice into the death of Christ, one can Pass through the Whole Process of Salvation, and into the Divine Resurrection of our True Self that Appears within God; which Dawns from, and Is Solely Sourced from the right-heart of the Spiritual Cross. This is a historical and global (Divine) Process through which God’s Expressed Image of Identity Ultimately and Totally (Freely and Perfectly) Lives As All, even As the Cosmos itself. The sinner Must go, Release self into God, and Be Liberated of the sinner, pass through the (Absolute) death of the sinner and God Will Freely Live As you; Have Perfect Faith in that, I Give Witness - In Jesus Christ's Divine Revealing Name, Amen.
 Prayer and Mantra Intercede for God, and through prayer and mantra the darkness of ego is Obliterated. Prayer and mantra can help the Divine Process of changing the conditioning of the body/mind from egoic to Divine, and through prayer and/or mantra the old habits of the mind can be confronted, immediately stopped, and/or consciously transcended. These practices stimulate the body/mind’s response to God’s Grace, and they create Opportunity for healing in the midst of suffering. Prayer and mantra are fundamentally and consciously born from the Source of All. These are practices that catalyze and instigate the True Conscious relationship that Supports the Spiritual Process only, and if a person is healed in any way that healing should be understood As a spiritual experience, and an Immediate offering of the Evidence of God (for all those involved). Through these two practices the individual becomes empowered to initiate Instant and Immediate self healing, including the possible healing of others. The Healing is grounded in Divine Realization (through Self Realization Reiteration), thus, the Healing occurs in the midst of becoming (momentarily) consciously Aware beyond the coil of inwardness, and through the Process of ego death. To put this another way; the Healing supports the individual’s (or collective) Spiritual Process, and learning to Notice, Acknowledge and Identify As the Transcendent One (Principally) allows the individual to experience suffering without being bound to suffering. Divine prayer and mantra allow the individual to pray without seeking, and to pray in the midst of already being Eternally Satisfied. We Must learn that suffering is not going to go away with Spiritual Realization, we simply learn to Live beyond that conditional bodily experience, and prayer and mantra can be quite valuable in that Divine Process.
Prayer comes about in two principle ways. The first is a prayer, non-repetitious, with an intentional (Ultimately a Spiritual) outcome for oneself and/or another/others. The second is born in repetition (like mantra), and serves to counter the conditioning of the body/mind (especially the brain), and catalyzes the process of consciously (moment to moment) transcending the egoic coil of inwardness. Both of these ways of prayer are born through self transcending Acknowledgement of God As the Source of you (’me’) and All, and they are born through devotion to the Transcendent Reality of God’s Immediate Presence beyond All appearances. Prayer, in all genuine forms, appears As the body/mind gives up the ego identity so the True Divine Identity of Reality can work through it (body/mind) Freely. The chances of a prayer being fulfilled is fifty percent, and there is no going back to try it with or without prayer to see what will happen; it will or will not happen, and there is no chance of knowing otherwise. Thus, All prayer is filled with hope, love, compassion, faith, devotion and self sacrifice, and it is not prophecy or an attempt to manipulate the current conditions for a different outcome (apparently) destined to happen.
Whether we pray or not, whatever happens happened. It is God’s Will or the delusion of ego’s will, and when a person Lives through Faith in God’s Will there is not a negative response when prayer is not fulfilled, when the prayer is not answered. The person with an egoic relationship to God finds all kinds of reasons it (the prayer) went unanswered or did not happen, or wonders why God is not listening, or why God is not bowing to their self fulfilling egoic will. That person becomes angered with God, and ultimately holds up their relationship with God as the Very thing they will revoke if God does not Respond to their calls. That is all nonsense and a self obsessed play of ego within the individual. There is no Real Conscious dynamic with God in those moments, that person is completely boxing God into their preconceived ideas, into the God their preacher convinced them was real, and/or call on Satan as the reason for failure. Follow God’s Divine Will moment to moment, and when prayer is not fulfilled, be satisfied with God inherently. True Divine Prayer requires a person to already be Satisfied with God Only. Furthermore, any outcome in conditional reality is neither satisfying nor unsatisfying, the Realized individual Is Perpetually Satisfied with God Only, and there is nothing in life that can take that away.
There is also the common conception of prayer, which manifests consciously through the egoic conscious dynamic of the body/mind, and it is not Divine, it is not in-line with God’s Realization, it has nothing to do with being Spiritual, and the whole prayer occurs in the absence of God’s Light (through a separative identity). This is not saying God is absent somehow, but that the body/mind prays in the absence of Being Consciously Aware of God’s Light; the body/mind prays without self sacrifice of the separate self into the One and Only Divine Self. The (ego) prayer manifests from the ‘point of view’ of self obsession, the self fulfilling motive, and truly the coil of conscious inwardness plays the role of the ‘center’ of the conscious relationship through which the prayer comes about. Prayer that comes about through the conscious dynamic of the ego relationship with life is prayer born for manipulation and separative influence; it is born from the attachment to self service regardless of the consequences for others. In other words, if you want to buy a house and you pray for the opportunity to buy this house, your prayer does not consider what might have to happen to another in order for you to buy a house. It might require you to make more money, and perhaps you get a promotion at work, thus, enabling you to purchase the house. But, the promotion came at the expense of another who was not quite as good at the job as you are. Someone else had to suffer for the fulfilling of that prayer.
So, you might say, well, that must be God’s Will (or that’s just the way it is – or everything happens for a reason) in order to justify the fulfillment of your prayer at the expense of another suffering. The ego always has a unique answer for why a prayer did or did not come true, because the ego needs answers and reasons. Ego is never satisfied with life As It Is, and As It happens, without judging life one way or another; the ego adds its (empty) personal interpretation to life as if life needs a narrator for things to be Real. This is the way ego continues to rule the bodily conscious relationship that appears in life. It pretends to acknowledge God, while retaining its self possession of separateness. These kinds of prayer are born from the ‘me and God’ (false) relationship the body/mind creates. The ego can be extremely religious, it can pray daily, it can judge others spiritual connection with God, and the ego will either go to heaven or hell. The ego prays for heaven, and it wants to sit next to Jesus, and it (ego) wants to See and Worship God (not Really), while God sits on Its Throne before it (as if God is Objective and separate from its self). All of it is delusion passed down for centuries from the religious leaders to the parents, to their children.
True prayer is not ego born, and the practice of prayer sets up the conditions for God’s Grace to Freely work through the individual or group of people. True Prayer Acknowledges God’s Immediate Presence As the Fullness of Reality, and the Prayer spawns from the Impulse of Love-bliss and Happiness. It notices the (unnecessary egoic) suffering in the world, and it longs to have God’s Realization Freely and Fully manifest As the individual, and all. The True Divine Prayer is seated in God’s Realization, thus, the Divine Prayer Communicates the understanding of the Process of Spiritual Awakening. It (Divine Prayer) fundamentally understands there is a Real conscious darkness that appears (self created) within the individual which blots out the person’s Recognition of God’s Divine Transcendent Light of Consciousness. The Divine Prayer is capable of Spontaneous Intervention in the midst of the darkness of ego, and the Divine Prayer is capable of Spontaneous Intervention through God’s Will. Enbrightenment is the ego transcending Fulfillment of the Process of the Divine Prayer. Fundamentally, there is One Divine Prayer (Mantra) in Reality, and It is a transcendent Prayer of the Impulse of God’s Divine Realization to Live Fully~Completely As the individual, and to do this with All. The Divine Prayer/Mantra is not tied up with words, or a body/mind, the Prayer transcends the appearances of all form. Yet, through form, and through changing appearances the Divine Process (of Enbrightenment) is Catalyzed through Divine Prayer and begins, progresses, and ultimately is Fulfilled within the individual through the Sole Divine Prayer of Reality/God.
When it comes to the use of a mantra in Spiritual practice it does not serve a purpose like intentional prayer for Divine Healing. Mantra prayer is not exactly like a prayer for the healing of a person's aliment or sickness. It is not spoken in the same way, and mantra prayer has a different function in Spiritual practice, although both prayer and mantra are used for Spiritual Healing and Realization. On some levels much of the Same can be said about prayer and mantra, and the mantra has the Same use as the repetitious practice of a specific prayer or payers. There are three principal kinds of functional mantras taught within Enbrightenment. The first is a mantra, a word or group of words, that has concept and meaning behind it. These mantras are practiced to reiterate certain qualities of God's Divine Presence in the midst of reappearing egoic conscious qualities, and to break up ego's repeated self creating mantra of delusion and false identity. The second and third mantra contain styles of syllables and sounds that have no meaning (or meaning) and are primarily used to confront and break the conditioning of ego, or these mantras can be used as a tool for entering temporary states of consciousness that are not ‘tied’ up in ego; which in the language of the east are different (all temporary) ‘samadhis’. The word 'Holy' can be repeated to reiterate that quality of God's Divine Presence, it can be used as an intervention to break up the steady reappearance of ego (in meditation or daily life), and it can lead to a contemplation of what God's Eternal Holiness Consciously Feels like, or Appears like to the individual. So, the word 'Holy' can express all three qualities discussed above about how mantras are practiced, but with meaning and definition behind the mantra's sounds and syllables. The mantras without meaning (create your own meaningless word) can be practiced to interrupt the flow of ego, they can be practiced in meditation or daily experience, and they can be used to yoke the body/mind's consciousness to Notice the Presence of consciousness beyond the inward coil of separative self. Sometimes these mantras are used as a tool to enter samadhis (states of consciousness manifested through specific experiences within the Spiritual Cross).
Mantra fundamentally echoes the Primordial Vibration of Existence, which inherently Is Only Present Now. Mantra is a powerful practice in relationship to undermining the current egoic obsession appearing within the body/mind, and to be Satisfied with the Divine Presence of life right Now. A mantra (or repetitious prayer) is designed to confront the wondering, out of control, self possessed darkness of the perpetual reappearance of ego. Mantras (or Prayers) can be spoken out loud or silently to one self, and it can be practiced alone or with a group of people. The mantra can be practiced in meditation or within ordinary daily experience. The verbiage of the mantra, including the number of syllables and possibly a particular sound of pronunciation, are key ingredients to a proper practice of the mantra prayer.
Mantra either has meaning or has no meaning. In other words, fundamentally the mantra can be a word like ‘Amen’ or (I like the word) ‘Holy’, or the mantra may be a grouping of syllables that have zero meaning. Although, in the eastern traditions they have gone about applying meaning to many meaningless syllables and sounds, and tried to apply meaning to every sort of grouping of syllables and sounds. This takes away from the meaningless mantra, and destroys the value of the meaninglessness of the mantra. The value of having a mantra without meaning supports a conscious state that is not seeking, searching, and/or looking. The meaningless mantra appears in consciousness without a set of spider arms interconnected with all sorts of ideas, experiences, questions, answers, and so on. It can be repeated and leaves no path of self delusion or attachment to a false identity within the individual. The meaningless mantras can't be attached to like a new idea or concept. Furthermore, it supports the thoughtless sky of consciousness by turning off the valve which stops the flow of egoic self obsessed consciousness. While the meaningless mantra is being repeated it becomes easier to Notice the ‘emptiness’ between thoughts, and it becomes easier to Notice the emptiness of ego identity.
The mantra comes in all sorts of ways, and the vast spectrum of mantra practice can fall prey to the egoic self possession of the body/mind. Mantra prayer, in its true Divine form, undermines the egoic conditioning of the repetitious self possession the ego presents to the body/mind moment to moment. Instead of allowing the egoic conditioning of the brain to over-whelm oneself (constantly), the individual practices the repetitive mantra to break up the reoccurring darkness by speaking the mantra from the Heart of Consciousness, which is inherently free of all syllables and sounds, and/or can also be understood As the source for all syllables and sounds. From the Great Silence of Eternity all appear and return, and all sound and syllable spring forth and return effortlessly. By Sourcing the mantra (both meaningless and mantras with meaning) in the Heart of Consciousness, which is before sound or syllable, a person Saturates the moment to moment practice of mantra with God’s Light and Presence. Mantra born from the Heart of God throws a road block in the path of the ego, and the mantra interrupts the old habit of ego with a Divine Acknowledgement of God Only.
The integral aspect of the practice of mantra (and prayer) means that all traditions can practice it, and use their local cultural and religious traditions to influence the syllables and sounds that appear in their local practices of prayer and mantra. Mantra meditation and practice is not a way of dumbing down the mind, nor is it like sticking your fingers in your ears and going lalalalalala to blot out Reality. The ego is the living state of sticking your fingers in your ears and going lalalalalala. That is what you have been doing all your life, the conditioning of the world has focused your understanding of self identity into a coil of self centeredness. This is something many people are doing, and while a person only allows certain thoughts, or supports only certain separative identities and activities, they are saying lalalalalala to hide from the Blatant and Obvious Inherent Brightness of Reality, and Its Consuming Fires of Transfiguration. The ego is the living practice of denying the body/mind the Free (moment to moment) Opportunity to sacrifice the self created identity of ego, to transcend the separative self, and to self surrender (Fully~Completely) into the One and Only Divine Identity of God/Reality. The mantra, once it is properly understood, empowers the individual to not bow down to the over-whelming conscious dynamic of the ego coil of inwardness.
Prayer and mantra have all sorts of personal meanings for many people, religions and traditions, and the Genuine uses and practices of a mantra or prayer (principally and primarily) Serve to support the individual’s Spiritual Process of purging the conscious activity of ego (sin). Mantra and prayer can be abused by the egoic state of mind, or these two practices can undermine the egoic state of mind. The individual babbles on, and on, and on about this and that, filling their head with all sorts of mantras and ‘prayers’ (like, I am smart, I am beautiful, I am ugly, I am nice, I am mean, I am angry, I am sad, I am upset, and so on) that serve to support the ego identity. Once the body/mind turns to practice either prayer and/or some kind of mantra that one gains a tool for denying the ego the opportunity of re-enforcing itself. In the beginning the ego possesses the individual, leaving that one without a Real Awareness of the One True Divine Identity of Self. But, through the uses of prayer and mantra the individual can turn and confront the egoic life with something that progressively Heals, and a Spiritual Practice that Heals through the Divine Light of God’s Love-bliss Presence and Identity. A person that Truly and Divinely Practices Prayer and Mantra becomes Saturated and Satisfied with God Only, and that one is ultimately not moved by what does or does not happen in life.
