Logos Lux- Part I
by Neven Paar

People often talk about the Spirit and Spirit energy, but few know what it is. According to The Kybalion, the Spirit is "unknowable, unmovable, all-pervading—having always existed and will always exist." It is the underlying essence, the Primum Mobile, the Great White Light. According to the Qabalah, the Spirit is the highest Element, the synthesis of all the Elements. Alchemically, it has been called the Quintessence. It is even alluded to as Philosophic Mercury because of fluidic nature. The truth is, Spirit is the animating principle of everything that exists.

Matter though is real to us humans insofar as we are in this physical body and can live and move our being on planet Earth. But according to quantum physics, Matter is not real—something the Ancients always have known. It is Maya, an illusion. If you look at a molecule with a microscope and you break it down, Matter is in reality just empty space with electrons and neutrons orbiting around each other. At its core, it is just space, an un-reality. Nevertheless, there must be an underlying reality overlaid upon this illusion of Matter. So if Matter is not real, then what is real?

What is real is the Spirit. Spirit is in everything. It is the mortar that creates everything in existence. And as we are also Spirit, we have a Spiritual counterpart. It is our duty as human beings to get in touch with it. In Christian terms, this is called the Resurrection, or Rebirth. Metaphorically speaking, it is being born again, into the Spirit. It is the raising of consciousness above physical Matter into the Spiritual reality that underlies all things.

On the Qabalistic Tree of Life, the Spirit belongs to the Sphere of Kether, the Crown, the White Light and the highest state of consciousness attainable by human beings. In reality, we can never know the Great White Light directly. To do so, the physical body would have to die. This is why those who have near-death experiences report seeing the White Light. We know it and of it through the next two Spheres of the Tree of Life, Chokmah and Binah, Wisdom and Understanding. In the Christian pantheon, these three Spheres form the Trinity. Kether is the Father, Chokmah is the Son, and Binah is the Holy Ghost. These three are Eternal, the part of us that was never born and will never die.

We can perceive reality through intuition by using Ajna Chakra and the Mind's Eye, its psychic energy portal. Ajna is the sixth Chakra, the one below the Crown Chakra, which filters the White Light of the Spirit. Some of us are in tune with the Mind's Eye. Yet others are so conditioned by their perception of Matter and the Ego that their Mind's Eye portal has closed up through Pineal Gland calcification. They don't experience reality through the intuition, but instead only through the intellect.

The intellect is the by-product of the mind, and its primary operator is the Ego. The Ego lives in the Water Element, which comprises 60% of our physical bodies, as we are mainly made up of water. Now, in order to raise consciousness above the physical body and the Ego, we must apply heat and the Fire Element to burn away the dross and negative Karma stored in the Waters of the body, in our memories. The Ego feeds off fear stored in the Karma of our memories, through fear of the past. It is formed and lives with us, trying to convince us that we are it. The most significant con that the Ego ever pulled was making us each believe that we are it.

One way to apply heat to old memories in order to purge them is by raising the Kundalini Energy. What is the Kundalini? Kundalini is the latent energy in human beings that resides at the base of the spine, which is said to be coiled three times. Raising this energy happens through the use of Spiritual practices, by meditation, a traumatic life experience, or even through the use of recreational drugs. The energy rises through the spinal column and into the brain. Once raised to the top of the head, it triggers an awakening of the Spiritual Body counterpart, our doppelganger, whose purpose is to attune us to the subtle world of the Spirit. This is the Body of Light or Light Body.

This Spiritual awakening, the highest degree of Enlightenment, occurs after many, many years of purging and transforming. Enlightenment means to be "in-Light," therefore, it is akin to the Resurrection of the physical body into the Spirit, since the Spirit is Light. The two words mean the same thing. Enlightenment is the state of achievement, while Resurrection is the process of attainment to this goal.

Kundalini triggers the full activation of the Body of Light that, according to the Hindus, awakens the 72,000 Nadis. Once this occurs, the awakened human becomes like a tree, with their feet rooted in Mother Earth. Awakened ones receive vibrations from invisible worlds that are attuned to the World Aeon, the Aura of the Earth. These awakened Nadis serve as receptors while the Air around us serves as a medium of transmission of energy signals related to thoughts and feelings. Here is the source of telepathy, which is the direct knowledge of another's thoughts, and empathy, which is the direct knowledge of another's feelings.

Air is also linked to Spirit, and in some Spiritual practices, it is considered as the Spirit. But Qabalistically, Air is an Element, and therefore a part of Spirit, but not Spirit itself. But since Air moves both the Water and Fire Elements in the physical realm of Matter, the same property is given to it through the Alchemical Elements. "As Above, So Below." What takes place in the Microcosm, also takes place in the Macrocosm. And vice versa.

The Air Element is related to thought, while the Water Element represents emotion and Fire is the willpower. Thought moves both willpower and emotion, hence Air is said to be suspended between the Fire and Water Elements, which together represent life. Visually, it is the Hexagram or the Star of David, a Jewish symbol relating to life itself. Within the Earth's atmosphere, Air is all around us and all life needs Air in order to survive. Without Air, we cannot breathe, and without breath, there is no life. It's as simple as that. Air is life.

Once an individual's Spiritual Body and the 72,000 Nadis are awakened, consciousness can receive and perceive vibrations, and the person is termed "psychic" to a greater or lesser extent. Being psychic is the ability to understand worlds beyond the physical by using psychism, the psyche, or the mind. Thus, it is an internal process of receiving. The awakened Nadis are the antennae while Air is the medium of transmission of vibrations. It is said that a Kundalini awakening and activation of the Body of Light, catapults the person into the world of energy and vibration. The Ancients called this the Fourth Dimension.

Energy is an invisible substance that we talk about all the time. Upon closer inspection, we will see that Energy and Spirit are oftentimes interchangeable terms. Spirit is, therefore, energy, and it can be measured and quantified due to its vibrational frequency. But there are varying degrees of energy—Spirit being just one of them—that vibrates at the highest rate. Once you start lowering vibrations, you can tune into different vibratory fields between Spirit and Matter. Matter is said to vibrate at such a low frequency that it is practically at rest, while Spirit vibrates at such a high rate that it is invisible. But both occupy the same space at the same time. Raising the Kundalini enables you to experience this other world that is ordinarily imperceptible by the senses.

It is our duty as human beings to raise consciousness to the level of Spirit, thereby increasing our own vibrations. Vibrations affect everything, and if we raise our own vibrations, we immediately affect everything and everyone that comes into contact with us. Vibrations work through induction. They emanate and jump from one person to another, affecting everything from living things to inanimate objects. Quantum physics now corroborates this process, knowledge the Ancients discovered thousands of years ago. We cannot look at anything or give anything attention without changing it in the process.

So, what is consciousness? As human beings, we are consciousness, able to perceive the world around us through the five senses, and through the sixth sense of intuition, the Mind's Eye. Consciousness is everything around us; it is Spirit. You need the vehicle of consciousness in order to perceive and experience the world. Consciousness for humans works through the attention of willpower.

That which we give attention to is where our consciousness is. If we give our thoughts attention, then we are in our own heads, in our minds, and our consciousness is turned inwards. We are basically living out only what we think. If our attention is inwards, then we are in the Ego. If it is outwards, we are resonating with Spirit. If we focus our attention outwards into the physical world, we connect our consciousness with all living and non-living things and by uniting our consciousness with what is outside of us, we become One with the thing we are looking at. By becoming One with it, we stop living in the duality of mind. Instead, we attune to the moment, the Now. The past and future only exist in the mind as a form of duality. The Spirit lives in singularity while the Ego lives in duality.

The Now is an ecstatic moment. In the Now, human beings feel a phenomenal emotionality. And since we love to feel good, we strive to be in the Now. We do so through the creative arts, by meditating, or through acts that make us literally lose ourselves. The creative process excites our imagination, which puts us in touch with the Now. This is why an artist, poet, or musician gets so enraptured with creating that they lose track of time and exist only in the Now. Another way is through meditation—either focusing on something, an object or thought and holding it, or by working to silence the mind. Both processes put the person in touch with the Now.

In reality, all life is a form of meditation, since we are always thinking about something. Even focusing not to think is thinking about not thinking, hence it is a form of thought. Thought is at the core of everything in the Universe, at least as far as our Milky Way galaxy is concerned. Talking about different galaxies and the feasibility of existence there is to speak without factual knowledge. So, when talking about the Universe, let it be understood we are only talking about our Milky Way Galaxy and our own Solar System.
