Seeing Clearer the Soul and the Personality – An Essay

Seeing the End from the Beginning.

There is a curse upon each one of us and this curse is such that it prevents us from knowing ourselves as we truly are based upon historical past life decisions.  This curse was put on us by the creator to indirectly let us know of our true greatness and without this curse we would not be able to survive this realization of self actions and natures in previous lives in one piece nor would we be able to live a new life at all. The reason for this loss of memory curse is simple, unless we discover this curse for ourselves it cannot be told, and we will never understand why it is there unless we discover it for ourselves or in other words we are either blessed or cursed with who we truly are and unless we discover that for ourselves our lives will have the meaning we desire.

Without a model of personality development and conscious evolution it is not possible to see the final form the personality takes as it synthesizes with spirit and soul. It is the accuracy of this model that determines our ability to know and understand this.  It is also the ability to see through the eyes of the soul that will give one the added ability of knowing the end outcome of the personality and its sheath unfoldment. This is for two reasons, first the divine soul is the archetype and the creator of the three-fold personality and secondly it is the divine soul that uses it to fulfill Its Purpose.

 

Knowing the truth of who you are.

Forever and a day we have chosen to create ourselves thorough the performing of instinctual functions whether or not these instincts are animal, human, or spiritual. And over time the unfoldment of our instincts takes on a greater and greater purity. The evolution of instincts from animal to human and human to spiritual and spiritual to divine  is another name for the evolution of awareness or inclusive awareness which is the basis for consciousness. It is this expanding consciousness with its ability to comprehend greater and greater complex patterns of idea causation that define us as individuals and eventually as a race or civilization. It is this pattern of idea causation that determines our direction in time and our cultures and civilizations. It is this pattern that conditions us and tells us what is true or not. It is likewise the pattern that binds us to each other and to the earth.

For argument’s sake let this pattern be represented by western culture and civilization as it exists today and within this pattern we can pin-point ourselves with our knowledge and understandings and beliefs. Also, outside of this pattern we also exist and know ourselves especially those who will read this discussion and it is this sub-cultural pattern that this discussion is about. It is also possible that this pattern of livingness that animates our lives is a direct result of the human soul as part of it pursues this pattern of thought and realizes its identity to this pattern. It will be remembered that the Son of Mind or thinker as the soul is called when awake, is first of all the repository of divine thought and that it is collectively considered to be the brain cells of the planet. And these together define the overall pattern of ideation possible at any time in human expression. It is this understanding that symbolically explains our position in the body of humanity.

Seeing this we understand that our symbolic position in the world of humanity is suggestive of comprehension or intelligence if we could realistically measure this accurately. Our Intelligence Quotient tests attempt to do this in terms of the material side of existence, but we are more than this. The Spirit of the Earth’s and our instinctual intelligence (or causation determining ability) symbolizes Its and our success in unfolding our consciousness with our ability to determine cause from effect. It is this that determines a smart Anima Mundi from a less intelligent Anima Mundi as evolution unfolds the soul and forms it co-creates.

You would be surprised to find that within each of us are several variables determining our state of beingness and therefore of our state of readiness to understand life from such a point. It would be wise to hold ourselves in such a way that gradually we would come to respect our beingness as a conditioned response to both interior and exterior forces at work within the larger group matrix throughout the various cultures and civilizations. And supposing that each one of you were permitted to become more adept at determining your fate over time thus giving you more advantage over others, would this not lead to an inevitable problem facing us as what to do to overcome existing conditions starting from the idea of seeing others as lessor beings and therefore inferior to us. And would this not become a dangerous situation for us each secretly believing they were better than those around them. We might believe that this is true today for some and therefore protected only from the societal order of things permitting one to develop an ability to forge ahead of their companions. In this way evolution protects everyone according to the greatest number and therefore it is said that for every individual in need of protection there is someone required to protect them or assist them and therefore it is said that everybody is their brother’s keeper.

Among Knowers, it is said that the Lord is Present in the “Face of the Waters” and that if present in this state the Voice of the Lord is correctly heard and followed by those who “obey the slightest wish of the Lord”.  The Lord has been the caretaker of all life forms upon this planet since the beginning of time and His Purpose can be known. It is a Purpose so grandiose, so beautiful, so inevitable that our ability to apperceive it in revelation leaves us speechless in our inability to contain it or express it as many have attempted to do done the ages. Every atom of our being is involved in this purpose and each infinitesimal life no matter how small an important part of this purpose is. It would depict wisdom in those who accept this hypothesis to fathom this in their hearts and become a caretaker of this Purpose. There are many who believe that the purpose is this or that but the culminating experience through a continuous series of revelations incorporating every aspect of Being is required to have the slightest comprehension to even approach this Purpose (HZ Note: Previously was created a workshop “The Magical Nature of the Soul” which was posted herein this website on one’s relationship to purpose and pattern that was discussed in further detail.)

The general belief that the planet is a creation of the Creator is true (as this is the essence of being born again experience as our spirits came into existence) and also true when it is stated that it was and is created through everyday cosmic natural processes that reflects God’s evolving three-fold major periodic vehicle instincts which are reflected by “Mother Nature” in their lowest form reflecting the the natural world. It is Being that is responsible for creating in its own image and it is this Being that is conscious as well as is unconscious just as we are. It is this being that ensouls all matter with a fragment of itself as we ensoul our creations with a fragment of ourselves. Being alone is consciousness and that consciousness it imbues in matter is by definition not-self. And this not-self is as much of that Being that it can absorb. Such is the nature of the personality or that much of the one being it can absorb.

To greatly shorten my argument on the Science of Self Creation I will just say that Ray Beingness is absorbed over time by the personality permitting its expanding expression mentally, emotionally, and vitally. It is to this point I would like to stay throughout this discussion. I believe I can capture it in these words—the truth is natural to those who identify with Being. Another way one might capture this is – let it be known that you are worshiped by others as they see you as part of them and others are worshiped by you if you see yourself in them. .

Religions over time has captured that much of the truth of Being as they were able to absorb and in this way the people are served by its relative vision. And to capture more than this is an impossibility and to expect the same is unreasonable. You would be wise to likewise see this as a truism in daily life as well as in all things. And to hope that none expects from you more than you can absorb in the moment.  If god expected this we could not exist. More to the point is that the Law of Compassion rules on this planet. “And if you judge you will be judged” according to your own law. Be ye wise as serpents said the Jesus Christ when in Palestine. Here meaning Serpents or Dragons of Wisdom thus compassion is innate when comprehension exists. Furthermore, the serpents’ and dragons’ lore has been with us for millions of years and the red serpent of self-passions grasped for eventually becomes the white Dragon of selflessness indicating among other things compassion.

The Battle Cry of every Son of God is to let your light shine and be seen as a light within the world (form light plus soul light) such is the nature of the human individual soul working through the personality sheaths. It is the soul of man that Christ spoke to not the human personalities, it was the souls of human units that he perceived before him. And to this day this is still not understood.

The human soul is not like anything we can imagine as it is formless. It of itself does not really exist (but is a collection of formless things) but what exists is the realization of ourselves as spiritual beings reflected in the human soul. Our spiritual beings are unique from every other spiritual being or human, animal, vegetable, or mineral, or devic being in that it was a product of its time and place and experience through its “glass darkly.” Each unit of life or being was a product of its historical creation setting as well as a series of incarnations created throughout its history differing in all things except the cultures and civilizations it partook of.  This life, gathered from its experiences, with its unique way of self-perception that makes up its ability to contribute to the greater group and in this way serve its purpose in and for life. This purpose is as much of gods purpose it is able to absorb just as we absorb the rays of the sun according to our ability or nature. It is a fact that we are created as human units through a mysterious process enabling us to say we exist given awareness of our external world and likewise our internal world living in two worlds simultaneously. In these worlds we perceive our existence, and this existence includes others.

This perception of others externally is due to their physical forms, but the perception of others internally is not accepted by those without the unfoldment of the required senses to perceive them.  We are a product of our senses in every way, and this determines our reality moment to moment. The senses themselves are a product of evolution or unfoldment of our Selves or Beingness over time and our ability to speed this up gives us an advantage over others in respect to Self-perception and everything that this implies. It is this Self-perception that is able to know what is in another Self similar to us. It is this ability that allows us to understand. It is this relationship with others that permits us to see and know ourselves likewise. They are mirrors into us as well as we are to them and to believe none can see you is to say you cannot see yourself.
