in Indian philosophy means the company of the “highest truth,” the company of a guru, or company with an assembly of persons who listen to, talk about, and assimilate the truth… and attune one’s self to the higher level of the teacher.

We always look to the seed level of anything to find its outcome, for as with a seed and the eventual tree that grows from it, its entire genetic blueprint is already there, and so it is spiritually as well with our actions.

Which means, the seed level of a babe is born at its conception. The mindset of the parents at the conception is what the seed level is of a baby and the person they become.

The seed level of an action is the thought.

The seed level of a business is the real purpose for what it stands.

The seed level of the Jewish New Year is the mindset of Passover: Run For Freedom.

Unfortunately in organized religion a holiday is only a cause for celebration, to eat, to fast, etc. its REAL seed level is lost to the conscious mind. But the seed level, nevertheless, gives the outcome, gives you the quality of your life.

Second Handers

Isn’t that the root of every despicable action? Not selfishness, but precisely the absence of a self. Look at them. The man who cheats and lies, but preserves a respectable front. He knows himself to be dishonest, but others think he’s honest and he derives his self-respect from that, second-hand. The man who takes credit for an achievement which is not his own. He knows himself to be mediocre, but he’s great in the eyes of others. The frustrated wretch who professes love for the inferior and clings to those less endowed, in order to establish his own superiority by comparison . . . . They’re second-handers . . . .

They have no concern for facts, ideas, work. They’re concerned only with people. They don’t ask: “Is this true?” They ask: “Is this what others think is true?” Not to judge, but to repeat. Not to do, but to give the impression of doing. Not creation, but show. Not ability, but friendship. Not merit, but pull. What would happen to the world without those who do, think, work, produce? Those are the egoists. You don’t think through another’s brain and you don’t work through another’s hands. When you suspend your faculty of independent judgment, you suspend consciousness. To stop consciousness is to stop life.
Second-handers have no sense of reality. Their reality is not within them, but somewhere in that space which divides one human body from another. Not an entity, but a relation—anchored to nothing. That’s the emptiness I couldn’t understand in people. That’s what stopped me whenever I faced a committee. Men without an ego. Opinion without a rational process. Motion without brakes or motor. Power without responsibility.
The second-hander acts, but the source of his actions is scattered in every other living person. It’s everywhere and nowhere and you can’t reason with him. He’s not open to reason.

Second Phase is a phase of the activation that is elective and requires both your knowledge and your participation.

If the highest vibration attainable for a human being is 1000, then 299, although is respectable and nice, is not the top of where you can get.

Just like some people strive for higher knowledge, higher position, higher consciousness, there will be people who want more out of life than what’s available at 299, and will want to learn how to raise their vibration, permanently, to higher levels.

I have gone, in the past 5 years, from 150 to 940, so it is possible.

I think so, though I am not a typical person in this regard: my ambition has been to cause the transformation of the planet, and not much worldly possession of stuff…

You may be different. I can tell you about my experience: overall intelligence rises, capacity to tune into Universal Intelligence (knowledge) increases, capacity to manifest opportunities, see the big picture, know when to do something and when to wait has really increased.

Oh, and it feels good. Quiet mind, almost unbroken smooth mood… while still feeling like a human being, still be able to feel anger, joy, sadness, frustration, anxiety, and have a choice to keep the feeling around or let them go.

I laugh a lot. I find most things hilariously funny.

The number seven pops up everywhere in esoteric sciences.

In addition to Vianna Stiebal’s teaching what the 7 planes are, here is an even more esoteric interpretation:

The 7 Planes of Existence

Just as there are seven colors in the rainbow and seven tones in a musical scale, each with a different vibratory rate, there are seven levels of being on the spectrum of creation. The slowest speed of vibration occurs on the physical plane; the highest, on the buddhaic plane. From the buddhaic plane, energy returns to its source, the Tao.

Physical plane: The densest of the seven planes; where we presently reside.
Astral plane: The second plane of creation. Its medium is concrete emotional energy. It is where our consciousness is focused between lifetimes and when we’re finished with the physical plane.
Causal plane: The third plane of creation. Its medium is concrete intellectual energy. It is Michael’s plane of existence.
Akashic plane: The central, neutral plane of creation that interconnects the other six. The distilled knowledge of the universe is recorded there. This is the records generated of everything that happens in the universe as it occurs. The appearance is that all matter and energy have a sort of built-in digital recording device, storing its entire history in a photographic code, but the records are actually windows into the past. The records show events exactly as they were experienced, so the information in them begins raw-it is not clarified, understood, and assimilated until a consciousness takes responsibility for doing so. Once it is fully assimilated, it is stored on the akashic plane
Mental plane: The fifth plane of creation. Its medium is abstract intellectual energy, emphasizing truth. The infinite soul who incarnated as Lao-tzu taught from this plane.
Messianic plane: The sixth plane of creation. Its medium is abstract emotional energy, emphasizing love. The infinite soul who incarnated as Jesus taught from this plane.
Buddhaic plane: The highest plane of creation. Its medium is pure or abstract kinetic energy. We experience the buddhaic plane just before fully refocusing our awareness in the Tao. The infinite soul who incarnated as Buddha taught from this plane.

There are etheric, nonsolid levels of the physical plane both lower and higher in frequency than our physical bodies. Some people with psychic skills can see them. The fact that they can be physically seen indicates that they are part of the physical plane. We cannot physically see what is nonphysical, although we may translate our nonphysical perceptions into physical images.

The etheric substance lower in vibration than the solid physical connects it with the Tao. This is the realm of devas, or nature spirits; it could be called the “lower physical plane.” The etheric substance higher in vibration than the solid physical connects it with the astral; it is in the realm of what could be called the “upper physical plane.”

Sentience, the ability to perceive subjectively

Sentience is the ability to feel, perceive or be conscious, or to have subjective experiences. Eighteenth century philosophers used the concept to distinguish the ability to think (“reason”) from the ability to feel (“sentience”). In modern western philosophy, sentience is the ability to have sensations or experiences (described by some thinkers as “qualia”). For Eastern philosophy, sentience is a metaphysical quality of all things that requires respect and care. The concept is central to the philosophy of animal rights, because sentience implies the ability to suffer, which entails certain rights. In science fiction, non-human characters described as “sentient” typically have similar abilities, qualities and rights as human beings.

According the the Old Testament, God is a sentient being capable of anger, jealousy, and other feelings. My experience counters that.

Regardless, something can communicate, something can be part of the design of life, even the source of life, and not be sentient.

It actually makes the relationship less tumultuous, more direct, and straight forward: not to the liking of religions of any denomination.

This new interpretation returns the power to each, the power that they have in the relationship. Beautiful, natural, and works.

Self-delusion is the act of deceiving one’s self. (noun)

An example of self-delusion is a person who believes himself to be much smarter than he actually is.

In my line of work self-delusion is so common, one could suspect that it is our nature to lie to ourselves then pretend that we didn’t know it.
