Dream

A is for Attachment:



Attachment to the body exhausts the soul and leaves it

dependent on physical form. The soul’s dimensions

become rolled up in the quantum events of the body so that

the soul is flat and ghost like. Exhausted souls are easily

trapped by new bodies and taken over by them as a source

of true life conferring subjectivity. The body sucks the

subjectivity out of the soul in order to empower the

alternative quantum world it exists in and change it from

dream and possibility to actual events. The body sucks the

soul’s subjectivity out of Zamaini-Dreamtime-Purusha into

the Sasa-Maya world of temporary manifestations.



The souls that become trapped in physical bodies are weak

souls that are unable to fight their impulse to attach to

physical pleasures. The souls that attach to human brains

are souls addicted to the pleasures of human flesh. These

weak souls have no creative power in themselves and wait

for some human or animal brain to create the electrical

excitement that can awaken them from their endless

Dreamtime sleep.



Attachment to the body weakens the soul’s ability to gain

access to its store of information from previous lives. All

the soul’s powers are drawn into the body and it’s

experience of the body’s feelings. Emotions bind the soul

to other souls that share the experiences and the

astrological systems that create these emotions. They pull

the soul away from its own unique roots and weave the

threads of the soul’s history into the cloth of the world.

B is for Body:



As Buddhism teaches us, this false self, generated by the

body, is a phantom with no depth or permanence. It draws

us into pleasure. It generates desires. It generates emotions

that lash us to the wheel of birth and death and rebirth.



The true self is the Buddha principle that blows out the

desires generated by the flesh and cuts through the

fundamental basis of existence into the pure freedom of

creative inexistence, creative nothingness. This true self is

the endless Budhisattva principle that generates the

detached essence of eternity. This true self is pure

detachment, pure reversion of the self, separation from the

body and its external form.



It is the pure rejection of the world; it is pure detachment

from all relationships. It is the pure creative isolation from

all form, all action, all desire, all pleasures and emotions of

body and flesh.



Joined to transcendent possibility, it is the joy, the love, the

creative non-being that liberates all things. It is the

Nirvana that unites all existence in the creative void.



It is this transcendence that regenerates the body, that

remakes it as the vehicle of this creativity rather than the

obstacle to this creativity. Once the soul is detached from

the body, the body returns to the soul as the agent of the

Dharma, of the eternal order of endless Buddhamind.

It is the attachment of the soul to the body that weakens.

C is Cause:



The soul has power in its pure creativity, as pure cause, as

pure Nirvana. Only when the soul returns to the pure

subjectivity and pure detachment of this desireless state

does it regain its creative power. As long as the soul is

attached to objects and desires, its power is undone, its

creativity is deflated, its freedom is bound.



The world of effects is the world of fear and anger, of

failed hopes and expectations. In the world of pure causes,

there is no fear, no anger, no failure. This pure Nirvana is

endless love, joy, peace, salvation, freedom, creative

novelty.



The true self regains its power as primary cause when it

detaches from greed, pride, lust, and the attempt to advance

the self generated by the body. Only when the creative

spirit substitutes humility, joy, trust, love, virtue, peace, and

harmony does the eternal Buddha self emerge. This self is

the primal cause of all things as the infinite enters into its

pure nothingness to discover the creative freedom that

remakes the heavens, the gods, and the cosmic order.

Through this infinitesimal Buddha self, the old order is

endlessly blown out into the Nirvana of perfect peace and

joy.



The soul’s power as cause lies utterly outside the existing

world system. It is the spiritual essence symbolized by

Christ and Buddha that generate the Nirvana, the New

Heavens and the New Earth that lie utterly beyond.

D is for Detached:



God, Buddha, Christ, the immortal soul, Nirvana, the

ultimate cause do not exist in the world. The world of our

experience is the product of mechanisms of evolution in the

thermodynamics of various levels of emerging systems in

quantum relativity ordered space-time. Subjective reality

utterly transcends this visible space-time. Its source lies

utterly beyond, in the depths of the breaks, in the depths of

the nothingness that the soul generates in the fabric of

being.



The core of our subjectivity is this pure Nirvana, this pure

Buddha Christ spirit, this Krishna as world destroying time

that remakes and reforms all things.



To find our true self, we must detach from the world and

enter into this pure nothingness, as described by Thomas

Merton in Seeds of Contemplation and in his writings on

the spirit of meditative Buddhism. When we access this

hidden self, we discover that it is the Oversoul described by

Emerson, the creative Spirit described by Thomas Troward

and Ernest Holmes (Science of Mind). It is the Kingdom of

Heaven described in Matthew and the creative freedom

described in the Dhammapada.



It is endlessly individualized in us only as we endlessly

give this independence back to the infinite from which it

came. When we seek to keep it. When we fail to detach

from it, it will fail. Then we will fade to a ghost. We will

become the meaningless subjectivity of the materialists.

F is for Fade:



This is why there is no proof of immortality. This is why

we cannot find our soul. This is why we have lost contact

with our previous existence. Our soul is dead. God is

dead. Immortality has faded away. Because our

attachment to this world has caused the transcendent to

fade, killing our soul, heaven, God, all the spiritual powers.

Our subjective freedom is a ghost trapped in the collapse of

our true being. We wander soulless in a self-created hell.



The body is our ruler. The brain is our jailer. We are

brought to life when it chooses to revive us. We are told by

it what to think and feel. It throws us scraps of pleasures

and brings our memories to life at its pleasure like old

movies played to entertain some tyrant king.



It loves to torture us with our powerlessness. It mocks our

slavery to its physiological states of being. It throws

depression and elation at us as it pleases. It generates anger

and passion that we cannot control. We are a ghost it has

called up from the depths of hell to animate its machinery,

to witness its processes as the prisoner of its mindless

whims. Yet hidden in this dance are the infinitesimal

remains of the spiritual kingdom, the invisible remains of

its power. Strangely, it is when we let go of our poor world

bitten egos, when we cease raging against the world for the

failure of our hopes, we can hear the hushed voice of its

harmony. We catch a glimpse of its light flickering

through a hidden window deep within. We are reminded of

that eternal freedom still shining in the depths of our heart.

G is for Genesis:



When connected to the infinite, that window is the genesis

of all things. There are no limits to its possibilities for it

emerges out of the boundless and operates in the pure

subjective unbound, prior to all limits, prior to all objects,

prior to all worlds of known and measurable things.



The world limits it, the body limits it, the flesh limits it,

only when we give the world and the body the power to

limit it. The world kills its, the world enslaves it, only

when we give the world that power. It dies only when we

allow the flesh to destroy it. It fades only when we allow

the body to wear it away.



When we keep it free from the world, when we keep it

innocent and unstained by the mistakes and problems of the

world, it soars into the endless and lifts us up into the

immortal and the good. Joy, love, beauty, virtue,

abundance, satisfaction, justice, eternity overcome the

limitations of the world and proclaim the coming of the

infinite kingdom. Our faith is the genesis of that new

world. We must believe in altruism and kindness, in beauty

and truth.



In this sense Islam in its notion of total submission to the

transcendent, Buddhism in its notion of the total

otherworldly nature of the transcendent, Christianity in its

conception of the total triumph of the transcendent, capture

a core spiritual truth of spiritual genesis, in spite of their

use of this truth to support the world’s power structure.

H is for Humanism:



Humanism is the mother of the sciences that have remade

our understanding of the world. Islam, Buddhism, and

Christianity remind us of the need to seek refuge from the

world. Neoconfucianism and Neotaoism describe the

larger system to which the world and the transcendent

belong. Hinduism describes effect of that system on the

soul. New Thought describes the means by which the soul

can transcend this effect and any caste or karma thrown

upon it by the world.



Buddhism outlines the negative and Christianity the

positive aspects of the morals of the transcendent.

Neotaoism outlines the negative and New Thought the

positive aspects of the metaphysics of the transcendent.

Humanism reminds us of the rational limits of the material

world and the human species as an animal emergence

within that world.



Somehow we must keep our feet planted in that material

reality without allowing it to bind our souls. This world is

the product of the scientific system described by the

sciences generated by the Humanistic tradition. These

sciences are the only reliable source of information about

the natural world. There is nothing faulty about the

Humanist tradition that has generated modern science, the

democratic-liberal tradition, and liberal morality. The

problem lies with the skepticism that Humanism has used

to fight the superstition and dogmatism of the Church.

Too often that skepticism becomes a dogmatic denial of all.

I is for Interpretation:



Each soul develops its own unique interpretation of

metaphysics. Each soul is a unique timeline developing its

own unique progression. All public metaphysics is invalid

because each soul is the source of its own unique cosmic

evolution. There is a unique true metaphysics for the

eternal time dimension created by each monad of existence.

Each monad of existence is an infinitesimal rip in the

ultimate metaphysics through which the boundless pours to

radically reinterpret all things.



Each soul is the Buddha, the Krishna, the Christ of its own

unique interpretation of Nirvana, Brahman, Heaven, God

the Father, the Holy Virgin Mother. That unique

interpretation is bound to other interpretations to form the

cosmologic systems that generate astrology. The soul is

bound to other souls by its level of virtue, by its level of

faith and feeling. The order of virtue, of faith, of feeling

that the soul’s subjectivity attaches to determines the

astrology of its birth, death, and rebirth, determines the

system and level of its reincarnation.



Yet any negative thinking, and limited belief system that

attaches a soul to other souls, traps it in a hell. It becomes a

fallen angel because it fails to fulfill its Buddha role, its

role as a unique savior, a unique source of freedom, a

unique creative reinvention of the world.



The soul’s involvement in the existing order is caught up in

the astrology of its birth, death, and rebirth.

J is for Jiva:



There is no evidence for the existence of the Jiva in the

world. The Jiva, the soul, cannot be

found in the tamas guna that makes up the world or the

rajas guna that makes up the karma that generates the

world. The soul belongs to the sattva guna, to pure

subjectivity. In terms of the system described by the

German zoologist Bernard Rensch in this presentation at

the Darwinian Centennial at the University of Chicago in

1959, the soul does not belong to the laws of

correspondence (tamas) or the laws of coherence (rajas).

The soul belongs to the laws of parallelism

(phenomenological, existential inexistence).



The soul is the pure novelty generated when the existing

cosmology is punctured. The soul is an infinitesimal hole

in that cosmology through which the boundless moves to

generate a unique thread of endless time. The soul is the

novel differentiation of the possible, the extension of the

boundless through that dimension of the infinite. The soul

is the pure subjective possibility that creates the objective

actuality of the world.



The memory of the past is hidden in the cosmology that

generates astrological fate. Our current astrological

progression is the projection of the memory of our previous

existence in the larger system of our universe and the

collective unconscious supersystem that governs it.



Our true immortality exists in the subjective boundless.

K is for Karma:



The karma, the actions of our previous existence trap us in

the world of death. Within this world our previous

existence has reality only as the karma that controls the

nature of our current existence. Our previous life is dead

except as the karma that generates our current astrological

fate. True immortality exists only in the novelty where the

soul breaks free from the confines of this world and

generates novel possibility in the realm of the subjective

boundless.



The Buddhists call this novel possibility “Nirvana” and the

state of breaking free that generates it enlightenment or

“Buddhamind.” The Christians, Jews, and Moslems call it

Heaven and the state of mind that generates it Christ, or

Salvation, of Grace, or the Holy Virgin, or the Prophet, or

the Word, or the Angel of God.



The New Thought movement calls this subjective

possibility the Spirit. The existing cosmology that the

Spirit endlessly fertilizes is the Law, the Dharma, the

Collective Unconscious. Included within the Collective

Unconscious is the existing Karma of previous lives and

states of mind. New Thought calls this collective product

“race thought,” because it is the collected negative thinking

of a community, or species of being, that enslaves it to a

lower level of evolutionary achievement. The Spirit (sattva

guna) fertilizes the Law of Attraction with its thoughts and

actions and causes it to react (rajas guna) to generate the

manifest world (the Body, or tamas guna).

L is for Lives:



Our previous lives are bound within the cosmology of the

world and the astrological systems that generate the world.

That immortality is a living death. The memory of our

previous existence is a faded ghost that is absorbed in our

attachment to our new existence.



The wheel of birth and death assimilates our previous lives.

The world digests our souls and uses the marrow of our

souls to fuel its systems of transmigration. Our unique

thread of time is twisted about the threads spun from other

souls till we are bound and trapped in hells and purgatories

that endlessly punish us for the relentless drama of our lust

and greed.



The only salvation is to seek the Buddha, the Christ mind in

the heart where the soul breaks free of the world in the pure

subjective dreamtime of open creativity. Here the thread of

our immortality breaks free into the boundless magic of

pure possibility, of Nirvana, of Heaven, of the supernatural

void. This subjective kingdom is the realm of salvation, of

true immortal life.



This is a state of the Spirit characterized by a mind that

frees itself from its old order of thinking and puts its faith

and trust in a new order of love, of joy, of a New Heavens

and a New Earth. This is Nirvana. It is a state in which the

old order of negative thought and lust and greed is blow

out. The soul is left free to rejoin the boundless, to choose

love over hate, faith over fear, harmony over discord.

M is for Maya:



This subjective kingdom cannot be found in the objective

world. There is no evidence for it in any data of science, in

any public information. The world has no true knowledge

of it. The world’s vision of it is garbled by ideology and

dogma, and stained by intolerance and prejudice.



This is why the Buddhist rejects the Hindu attempt to use it

to justify the existence of priesthoods and castes that exist

to serve the gods. The Buddhist deny the ultimate validity

of this and point to something higher than any of the gods

that is a blowing out of all the emotions that attach one to

this world (Nirvana). This other reality is described as

gone, gone, gone. For Christianity, it is the ever coming

Kingdom, the God ( per the Lutheran theologian Wolfhart

Pannenberg) that only exists in the ultimate future.



The problem is a difficult one. We must avoid getting

trapped in Maya, in the illusion that this objective world is

the cause rather than the effect of our subjective state. But,

we must also avoid the dogmatic thought systems that the

world uses to justify exploitation and traditional systems of

power. For us, caste systems, dogmas, intolerance,

prejudice, the notion that one holy book is better than

another, must also be part of this Maya. It is an idolatry in

which we are deluded into the belief that any system within

the finite can capture the essence of the infinite.



There is no place to pray except the secret chamber, there is

no way to Heaven except though the depths of the heart.

O is for Out:



The way out is though subjective freedom, though Nirvana,

though the blowing out of the world, through the ever

coming kingdom of the ultimate future, the kingdom of the

endless Christmas of the heart. The way out is through our

own Narnia (children’s literature of C.S. Lewis) and our

own Aslan.



New Thought describes this as a path of affirmation, a path

toward the Absolute, toward Cosmic Consciousness,

toward the Creative Spirit, toward the All Good. It is a

path of the First Cause, of the Word of God, of the Christ

Within. It is a state of union with the Creative Mind of the

Universe, Infinite Mind, Divine Mind, with Spiritual

Causation, it is Mystic Consciousness, it is spiritual Light

and Life.



Affirmations of the following kind lay the foundations of a

faith that supports that power within: “I let go of everything

and enter into an awareness of joy and love, of good and

truth and beauty. God is all there is. The highest power is

the only power in my life. The Ultimate Spirit is my Spirit

and it enters into me in a unique way. It awakens my

creative power and my immortal life is reborn in the

kingdom of divine perfection and divine power. My

immortal life is a new dimension adding endlessly to all

existence with my unique gifts of love and joy, my unique

interpretation of the divine creativity. Today I am an agent,

an angel, an avatar of God touching everything with God’s

truth, beauty, love, and justice.”

P is for Power:



This subjective creativity is the power that renews the soul.

It allows the soul to remain attached to the body because it

replaces the energy the body draws from the soul with the

unending supply of energy out of the boundless. This is the

miracle; this is the magic that remakes Heaven and Earth.



It turns greed into generosity, it turns lust into altruism, it

turns pride into productivity. It resurrects the old world in

the new. It is the endless Easter of the world. It is the

endless grace that saves all things.



It is the power of affirmation that is extolled in New

Thought. It is the liberation of Yoga, the Nirvana of the

Buddhist enlightenment. It is the soul’s realization of its

connection with Infinite Mind and the power of that

connection to make all things new, to make all things

possible. It is the ever coming Kingdom of God.



This power can only be described with the language of the

old systems. Therefore, the wise have called it

indescribable. New Thought in the West and Zen in the

East have attempted to describe the process whereby its

hidden presence can be used announce the entrance of

Divine Mind into the world at a new and higher level of

emergence.



The ancients called this kingdom of the ever coming

boundless “Dreamtime” or “Zamani”. The Buddhists

called it “Nirvana.” The Polynesians called it “Mana.”

Q is for Quartet:



This subjectivity, boundless supply, is the result of the

ultimate endlessly exceeding itself according to the

understanding of logic inspired by Godel. The highest

levels of organization are broken open by the infinitesimal

pinhole of the soul. The soul draws the cosmic order out

into a new freedom that endlessly weaves a new dimension

to cosmic hyperspace. Out of the weave together of the

soul’s new dimension of the endless with other threads

comes the emergence of the space-time of particular

universes.



Always this subjective becoming is open to alternative

possibilities as it weaves its colors through the landscape of

alternative quantum reality. This hidden subjectivity

weaves a quartet of secondary realities: quantum

indeterminacy, space-time relativity, hierarchies of systems

organization, the natural world as the effect of the prior

three. Thus: Openness, Synthesis, Model, and Nature.



This quartet is the reflection of a prior quartet that

generates it. That quartet begins with subjectivity as the

creative Spirit. The creative Spirit sets in motion the

universal order, Dharma or Law, the Collective

Unconscious. Out of the operation of its mechanisms

comes the thermodynamics of the world. The visible world

generates evolution that awakens the subjectivity of its

creatures in the form of conscious mind. This mind

awakens the hidden subjectivity within to spin a new thread

out of the boundless. Thus: Spirit, Law, Body, and Mind.

R is for Realization:



Humans are generally stuck in the lower quartet. They are

caught up in the systems that maintain the various levels of

organization that are evolving in the natural world. The

human brain is composed of quantum events organized into

protons and electrons of atoms that are bound together into

molecules. These molecules are organized into the cells of

the human organism.



The human organism is structured by the language and

culture that it absorbs as it develops. Civilized cultures are

structured by written and printed language. Modern

civilization is structured in turn at a cybernetic and a

computer program level of information storage. These

levels of organization are aspects of a natural world that is

structured at a microscopic level by quantum indeterminacy

and at a cosmic level by space-time relativity.



New Thought asks us to recognize that the objective world

described by the quartet of systems models, quantum

indeterminacy, cosmic relativity, and natural form is a

manifestation, a physical world generated out of a higher

system, a universal mind. This universal mind has a

creative aspect that is pure boundlessness, pure possibility.

The subjective aspect of our individual mind enters into

that subjectivity as an endless thread of creative becoming.



When we discover the subjectivity of our mind as this

Nirvana, we enter into the Buddha realization. We enter in

to Christ Consciousness. We discover ourselves as Spirit.

S is for Spirit:



When we discover the creative Spirit as the subjectivity

that is the source of creation, we discover that we are

Divine Mind in action, that we are Christ Consciousness,

that we are Buddhamind. At that point we enter the

Kingdom of Heaven, we become the coming of God’s

Kingdom from within.



This plants the seeds of creativity in the law of attraction

that resurrects our body and our world into a new order of

being. We cease to live in death. We are reborn to eternal

life. We turn the Karma of the Dharma wheel in the

direction of the Buddha principle. We enter Nirvana and it

sets us free from bondage to birth and rebirth. We are

Cosmic Consciousness in which all things are made new.



Buddhism and New Thought both teach us to ignore

theology and astrology because they are about the world of

race thought, the old world of limited thinking. Nirvana,

Creative Spirit is a blank slate, it is pure creative possibility

that is able to be and do all things good.



We must detach from this old world of negative thinking

that tells us what we can do, that thinks in terms of

problems and limits. The Spirit puts us in touch with

creative subjectivity and its boundless possibilities. In

Spirit we are free to attach to whatever order of being our

mind invests in. We reap as we sow; it is done unto us, as

we believe. This miracle is not in the natural world but in

the ground that makes the natural world possible.

T is for Tangible:



It is difficult to believe in this spiritual reality, this spiritual

immortality, this spiritual creativity because it originates in

the utterly transcendent, it originates in Nirvana, in

Dreamtime. It does not belong to the world but to the

Kingdom of the Ultimate Future. It is totally subjective.

Its objective aspect is a reflection only and has no primary

power, no deep causal influence or meaning.



This goes against all our training. We are taught to believe

in the tangible. We believe in a tangible God that came in

the flesh. We believe in a tangible Church with tangible

holy words and sacraments. We believe in tangible

evidence for our science and our history. It is difficult for

us to believe in intangible things. Yet, the Spirit is the

utterly intangible, the utterly beyond.



This intangible source is the necessary beginning of all

tangible objective things. Its creation emerges from the

necessary freedom out of which order and form are

structured. It is the essential invisible in which the visible

takes form.



Those who insist on making all things tangible would have

form with out any background to generate it, effects

without causes to generate them, creation without creativity

to create it. They would have energy that endlessly winds

down to entropy without anything to wind it up. They

would have all meaning in superficial objects and deny

meaning to the deeper subjectivity within.

U is for Ultimate:



Yet, our true reality is that Ultimate, that Divine Mind, that

Infinite Intelligence, that Creative Spirit. The forms we see

are the outer clothing of that deeper subjective meaning.



The Buddha realization is the discovery of the boundless

Nirvana, is the discovery of the identity of my Spirit and

Divine Mind. No longer am I punishing myself by

attachment to my belief that I am just a body, just flesh.

No longer must I use greed, and lust, and pride to fill my

needs. Released from the punishment, from the purgatory,

from the hell of desire, free from astrological fate, free

from race thought, I am the creative Spirit; I am Nirvana

making all things new.



Through faith in my Ultimate nature, I rediscover the Christ

Mind, the Creative Spirit and it renews my body and my

world. The flesh is resurrected into a New Earth. My soul

is liberated into a New Heavens. My belief in the Christ

within has saved me from the hell of my self-punishing

greed and hate. My positive affirmations of Divine Love

and Forgiveness have set me free from sin and I become

the Son of God entering the Kingdom of God that has come

in my heart. The Christmas of the soul has joined the

Easter of the Spirit in the triumph of Infinite Mind over

limited belief. The key to this new Buddha state is found in

the first verse of the Dhammapada, which tells us that

everything we are is the result of what we have thought. I

affirm Buddha mind. I affirm Christ mind. My world and

my flesh are renewed, resurrected in Nirvana-Heaven.

V is for Victory:



Existence is either victory or self-punishing desire

depending on my faith. If I enter into the Dreamtime of

subjectivity in a state of affirmation of the power of

Dreamtime, of the Creative Spirit, of the Easter of the

Christ, of the Christmas of the Holy Virgin, of the

Prophecy of Islam, that affirmation will give me victory

over the world.



My faith will set me free. My affirmation of the Divine

Kingdom will plant seeds that will grow in the soul of the

Collective Unconscious that will renew the world as the

perfect fruit of the Kingdom. The Kingdom of Divine

Mind will return.



It is my limited faith that punishes me. Believing my self

to be flesh rather than Spirit, object of the world rather than

creator of the world, I strive in the world to achieve my

expectations through greedy actions. I struggle to get my

share of power in the world by attempting to win that

power from others. This state of mind is sin, it is

mistakened. I create a hell through my continued belief in

these self-limiting thoughts and my continued investment

in these self-punishing actions.



My attachment to the body is a result of my self-punishing

failure to accept reality. I have expectations of the world

that are unrealistic, that cannot be meant. I expect the

world to fulfill my needs for joy and love. I assert my

special status in the world in pursuit of my desires.

W is for World:



The world is a place where I attempt to advance my pride

positions. These pride positions are based on self-

punishing expectations that cannot be meant. I fail to

recognize the reality of my weakness, that my pride

positions are self-punishing illusions. Exorbitant

expectations, impossible standards, are self hating ways

that I fail to accept the limitations of a finite world and

punish myself for attaching to a body that cannot meant my

inflated desires.



The failure of these expectations, the failure of these

desires can be used as an excuse for torturing ourselves, for

entering a depression because we were not able to live up

to these expectations. There reality is that life in a finite

world is tough. We die. We grow old. We cannot fulfill

all of our desires all of the time.



When we accept the reality of the world and its limitations

we cannot detach from our need to make it into a paradise

and our need to set ourselves up and princes and kings in

some sort of perfect place where we are immune to death

and trouble.



The solution is to affirm the perfection of our Spirit. The

body is only a reflection of the Spirit. The body is finite;

the world is limited by its finite parts. Perfect peace and

joy are products of the inner kingdom, not the external

world. The Divine Mind within us is the source of our

victory over the world.

X is for Xenos:



The Spirit is something strange, something alien to the

world. It is Nirvana, it is transcendent, it is gone, gone,

gone, gone utterly beyond. The Spirit is the creative xenos,

the creative stranger to the world that remakes all things.



We torture ourselves when we try to make the body

immortal. We torture ourselves when we try to make the

body perfect, beautiful, give it winning power. The body

must fail because it is finite. The world must fail us

because it is a place of norms and averages, not of nobility

and extraordinary achievement. All our specialness will

fail when we attempt to overcome the reality of the world.



Immortality exists in the inner world of the subjective

Spirit. Perfection exists in the boundless kingdom of the

Infinite Mind. By affirming this deep resource and its

power for good, we can detach from our attempt to find this

goodness in the struggles of the public world. We can

enjoy our body as a local and limited manifestation of the

unlimited powers of Universal Intelligence.



Scientific realism helps us discover the proper use of the

flesh. The flesh is a local and finite manifestation of the

endless one. Our soul is a unique interpretation of that

endless ground. We do not need to seek imperial powers in

the world. Our true freedom exists in our soul and its

ability to make all things new in the ever-novel realm of the

Spirit. When we discover that we are xenos, that we are

from beyond, we can detach from the world as a savior.

Y is for Youth:



There is no immortality in the world. When we attach to

the world and the flesh, our immortality fades. The world

and the flesh cannot fulfill our desires and expectations.

Attempting to find eternal youth and beauty in the finite is

a hopeless enterprise of self-punishment. We must accept

our limitations, our weaknesses, our failures, our aging and

dying.



It is the creative Spirit within that is immortal, that has

endless youth that endlessly renews and reinterprets all

things. When we invest our resources in that inner youth,

we discover a beauty and a renewal that will not fail. The

subjective is a dimension of the boundless and has no end

in time or space. It transcends time and space and the

limitations of the flesh and the world.



The mental condition that seeks eternal youth, seeks perfect

satisfaction in the flesh is unrealistic. Buddhism teaches us

to seek the truth in respect to the flesh. Christianity

encouraged the growth of the sciences in order to discover

the truth about the finite world. But, the truth about the

finite is not the truth about the infinitesimal and the infinite.

Here it is possible to experience the eternal youth of the

soul, of the endlessly creative Spirit.



The Christian metaphor for this eternal youth is found in

the symbols of Christmas and Easter. The Hindu metaphor

is found in the eternal youth of Krishna in Brindiban, in the

endless reincarnation of Vishnu as Krishna, Christ, Buddha.

Z is for Zamani:



Zamani is the African word for the Dreamtime, for the

subjective, for Nirvana, for the Beyond. The natural world

comes out of the Zamani into the limited and bound, into

temporary time and returns back to the unlimited. All

things are immortal in the Zamani and mortal in the

limited.



The great truth of science is the finiteness of the finite. The

finite must be known through the particle and the atom and

the cell. It must be known through the partial and the

tentative, through experiment and observation. The great

truth of religion is the boundlessness of the infinite. The

infinite must be known through the dream and the vision.

It must be known through the holistic, whole, wholesome,

and holy, through mysticism and faith.



Before we can see heaven, we must clear the eyeglass of

earth. We must admit the earthly reality. We must admit

the problems of the finite, the limitations of the finite. We

must abandon our selfish attempts to grab the infinite

through pride positions, through self-punishing lust and

greed. Once we face the limits of the finite, we can focus

on the infinitesimal mustard seed of the soul through which

the light of the infinite can pour if we are able to fill it with

just a bit of faith.



This is the faith that brings salvation, this is the realization

that brings the Buddha, brings the love of Krishna, brings

the ever coming Kingdom of God, the Creative Spirit.

E is for Evolution:



Evolution is the result of the thermodynamic dissipation of

energy toward entropy and the development of competition

in energy dissipative structures. Evolution is the

manifestation in the finite world of endless progressions

within the boundless. The boundless forever expands

beyond itself according to a Godel like endlessly self-

exceeding numerical relationship. The emergence of

energy in the finite to decay into entropy and drive

evolution is an expression of the endless expansion of the

subjective source of the objective world.



New Thought metaphysics describes the hidden beginning

that is the source of this visible emergence. The visible

emergence begins with the Creative Spirit that fertilizes the

ground of being with the seed of the manifest world. This

seed germinates in this soil to form the world we see.



The soul rips the existing world open so that the boundless

can expand into a greater boundless. Where it gashes the

infinite, the boundless endlessly pours through forming

new dimensions of infinite space-time. The threads that

endlessly pour through these rips adhere together and

weave a cloth upon the loom of existing cosmology.



This loom is the soil of existing system, of astrology, of

metaphysics, of theology. It is the Collective Unconscious,

the womb, the Holy Spirit of God. It is the Dharma wheel.

The seeds planted within are the Karma that turns it. This

Karma generates the evolution of the finite worlds.

N is for New:



There is a New World of Metaphysics and an Old World of

Metaphysics. The Old World of Metaphysics is the

Dharma, is the existing order of cosmology expanded into

greater cosmology, of finite life generating birth and rebirth

in an infinite system of heavens and hells, of universes

beyond this universe in an endless series.



The New World is generated where the infinitesimal

creativity of the soul rips this old system open and allows it

to endlessly expand into something new. This New World

is Nirvana, is the Creative Spirit, is the Brindiban of

Hinduism, the ever coming Heaven of Christian salvation,

of Islamic prophecy.



The soul generates immortal time threads, immortal threads

of primary causation as the infinite pours out of its pure

generativity. These threads are woven into the cloth of the

world on the loom-womb of the Collective Unconscious,

on the order of the infinite law of attraction, the infinite

system of the Dharma. The creative activity of these

threads and their combinations is the Karma that turns the

wheel of the Dharma. This Karma manifests as the energy

of evolution, the processes and events of the visible world.



In this process of adhering together to make the world. The

threads of pure subjectivity become attached to particular

objects, become incarnated in physical bodies, become

attached to the flesh. Once attached to the flesh, they

forget their origin in the endless and their original freedom.

K is for Karma (Continued):



The previous existence is continued at its level of

organization (Value, Virtue) in the system of the metacosm.

It becomes part of the basic astrology that determines the

point of rebirth. The new body develops its own unique

mind and is open to choices that allow it to develop in

novel directions.



To the extent that these directions are at animal or atomic

levels of being, that they are selfish and angry and

primitive, what is generated is a local hell in which the new

incarnation is trapped at a low level of biological or social

evolution. The soul that has its time line wrapped around

the rebirth cycles of a low level system is trapped in hell.

Astrological forces generating such imprisonment are

associated with Saturn, Mars, and Pluto. These planets

symbolize the more primitive aspects of the evolution of

cosmic intelligence (demonic or satanic, concerned with

war and security).



These memories, these previous lives need to be liberated

from hell and death. They need to be liberated from

attachment to the world and the world’s primitive systems.

This is called “moksha” in the East. The tangle of birth and

rebirth is “samsara.” The cause of samsara, the individual

twists are “karma.” The system that they twist about is

“dharma.” The levels of karma are the “gunas.”



Tight bondage to the world is “tamas.” The process of

binding is “rajas.” Opening up to moksha is “sattva.”

Tamas generates a level of bondage that is called “hell” and

“sin” or “evil” in the West and “Maya” or illusion in the

East. Rajas generates what is called “purgatory” in the

West. Sattva generates what is called “heaven” in the West

and “Nirvana” or “Brahman” or “Purusha” or “Samadhi” in

the East.



Samadhi is what liberates the individual “Jiva,” “Buddha,”

or “Atman” (Soul or Logos or Christ-mind in the West).

Purusha is the transcendence that accomplishes the

liberation. Nirvana is the ocean of boundless subjective

void the Buddha enters. Brahman is this void as the One or

Absolute of the West (Hen of the Neoplatonic trinity).



In New Thought terminology, Sattva, Buddha, Samadhi,

Moksha is the Spirit. Dharma is the Law. Maya and the

Gunas are the Body. Tamas is a body bound to Maya, to

the physical plane. Rajas is energy and change. Sattva is a

body that reflects the Spirit and thus is liberated into the

Spirit. Rajas generates the Karma that turns the Law.



Only at the Sattva level does the time thread lift free

enough from the Karma turns of the Dharma law, from

samsara (birth and rebirth) that the soul has access to

memories of its past lives. This access generates liberation,

salvation, Moksha. This state of liberation generates a

return to the primal cause, to the creative essence: Buddha,

Christ, Spirit, Samahdi. This state is a resurrection of the

body and a salvation of the soul in the heaven of Christ, of

the second coming, of the new kingdom of the boundless,

of the Amidha Buddha that emerges from pure Nirvana.

This is a total destruction of the tamas body and the Maya

self that is totally bound to the tamas body. The resurrected

body is free from sin, free from tamas flesh, from sinful

flesh. All that is left is the selfless Buddha self that is

detached from the flesh (moska). This detached Buddha

self is the infinitesimal drawing out the infinite, is endlessly

entering Nirvana and generating Buddhamind (Purusha,

Heaven).



This state is an endless dance of the Son (Buddha), the

Father (Nirvana), and the Holy Spirit (Buddhamind), of

Sattva (Atman, Jiva, Avatar), Purusha (God), and Brahman.

The Purusha dances as Spirit (Brahma), the dance of the

Spirit (Shiva), and the fulfillment of the Spirit in Brahman

(Vishnu). Brahma is the threads of the infinitesimal

entering the infinite, Shiva is the dancing of the threads,

and Vishnu is their union with the boundless (Brahman).



In this world of tamas, of attachment of the infinitesimal

threads, of the jiva-soul-monad time lines attachment to the

physical, of their tight winds around low level birth and

rebirth, there is little awareness of the content of past lives.

The root of the past lives is buried in the winding of birth

and rebirth that generates the astrology that determines the

fate of the current life. That fate is deeply buried in the

systems of attachment the soul has generated with lower

levels of the finite.



In this world, subjectivity behaves as the prisoner of the

body. The Christians call this “original sin,” in the East it

is Maya, the illusion of the bondage of the Spirit.

New thought calls the collective bondage “race thought.”

Race thought generates world systems of Maya. In the East

these world systems are called “loki” and the periods of

their evolution are called “kalpa.” In the West we call them

“universes” and the time periods “ages.”



The birth and rebirth of our time thread binds it to other

time threads generating the thermodynamic processes of

this world of space-time, this universe of relativity (binding

together of separate threads). The coming together of the

threads generates relativity, the process of their coming

together involves thermodynamics, and the individual

events of which the threads are made are the quantum

events of quantum mechanics (strings of string theory).



The threads only exist as threads on the subjective side. All

that emerges in the finite is the strings and quantum events

they generate. This subjectivity appears to be a secondary

effect from the finite side. Its causal, primary nature, is not

empirically demonstrable. This condition in which the

finite appears to be the cause of the infinitesimals (Buddha)

regeneration of the infinite (Nirvana) is known as Maya,

cosmic illusion in the East.



Science will never reveal this system. Science is caught in

the visible and the finite and the deeper truth exists in the

invisible and the boundless. Immortality will never be

proven in the visible because the visible as primary is the

death, the destruction of immortality. Only the invisible as

primary restores the immortal cause, the pure creative

Spirit (Christ, Buddha, Kingdom of Heaven).

True metaphysics can never be physics. True astrology can

never be astronomy. Metaphysics and astrology transcend

science just as Heaven transcends Earth.



This is why salvation comes by faith and love. Only faith

and love can generate the higher knowledge. Knowledge

bound to perception can never leave the finite.



Science liberates the powers of the world at the expense of

bondage to the world. Science gives us a clear glass to see

the finite at the expense of being stuck to the glass like a fly

to flypaper.



When we attempt to contact the roots of our soul and our

previous lives while attached to this body, all we do is

tangle these threads more deeply about this body of

attachment. The only solution is to seek these roots in love

and meditation rather than through perception and memory

and thought. All the thoughts and perceptions and

memories constructed by the brain, to which we are

currently attached, only attach us more.



We must seek the pure subjectivity that generates the

attachment. We must return to the Buddha, Nirvana root.

That is why Zen teaches us to avoid the confusions

generated by the attempt to use Maya to liberate ourselves

from Maya. That is why the Sermon on the Mount tells us

to go into our chamber to pray, to avoid the religion that

only binds us further to the greed and pride of the world.

L is for Lives (Continued):



The soul is the infinitesimal root endlessly extended into

the novel. The world is its opposite. It is a temporary

assembly of a public space. The world emerges from the

finite quantum now into the boundless all-time and all-

space of the hyperspace whole that is the opposite of the

quantum now.



The finite breaks the soul’s eternal time line by punctuating

it with death and rebirth. The boundless whole is the only

weapon the soul can use against this breakage.



The soul is eternal and infinitesimal. A Carbon Atom takes

up a tiny finite space and endures for billions of years. A

mouse population takes up much more space and lasts for

much less time. The hypercosmic whole is a boundless

instant of time.



The soul manifests in the world according to the level of

organization it attaches to and the virtues and values it is

faithful to in thought and deed. Only the boundless good,

only the Nirvana of the Buddha, the Future Kingdom of the

Christ can salve the soul from its bondage to the world.
