From extended bouts of meditation I have come to realise, as others have done before me, that they are numerous components that make up who we are. I have divided these various components into two categories; discrete and continuous (or implicit and explicit). There are between 5 and 7 such components when taken all together. The Ancient Egyptians similarly believed that there were between 5 and 8 different aspects to the soul that could survive after death. Whilst the analogy is not completely correct I will try to give the Egyptian equivalent where and when I can.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<u>Continous/Explicit</u><br />
<br />
Body: The physical body is continuous because it has a dimension in the physical world. The physical body houses all of the other components up until the eventuality of our deaths. (Ancient Egyptian: Haw)<br />
<br />
The Energy Body: The energy body is the lifeforce that permeates and animates the physical body. For this reason it is thought that the absence of this body from the physical body is akin to death. (AE: Ka)<br />
<br />
The Emotional Body: the emotional body could either be a function of the energy body or arises out of it as a separate entity in response to stimulus. Thoughts formed in the Ego tend to have a direct effect on the energy body and result in the occurrence of the emotional body. (AE: Ib)<br />
<br />
The Astral Body: The astral body is the connected to the ego as much as the energy body is connected to the physical body. The astral body is what the Ego makes use of when it is asleep and dreaming. It is our second body that can assume different forms and even defy the laws of physics, if necessary. During wakefulness, when the Ego is once again connected with the physical body the astral body takes a back seat. But it is always present and for this reason could be reasoned to take the form of the Shadow in Egyptian Mythology. (AE: Sheut)<br />
<br />
Ego: The ego is you presiding sense of self. It is who we are ultimately. All other things could be perceived as projections or tools of the Ego to make itself effective in the world. The Ego could be thought to be explicit because of its efficacy and its ability to be far reaching in the physical world. However, it could also be termed to be implicit because it, along with the projective element of the attention, serves to create what is known as space and time. (AE: Ba)<br />
<br />
<br />
<u>Discrete/implicit Properties of the Human Condition</u><br />
<br />
Discrete properties of the human condition are, as their name suggests, self-contained and do not occupy a very large area. The first of these is the Attention.<br />
<br />
Attention; the Attention is a very high-energy singularity of awareness containing almost no dimension<br />
It goes where the will or 'ego' tells it to go. Its purpose is to make a very fast recon of any target and relay this information back to the Ego. It moves with great celerity and agility. It can make sharp turns of ninety degree angles, much like the luminescent orbs of the UFO phenomenon. This leads me to believe that all of these kinds of UFO are conscious or perhaps projections of people's awareness whilst they sleep, meditate, day-dream etc. The Attention is only about as big as a small grass seed, but it can be surrounded by a diffuse auric energy field. The Attention is in some sense a projection of the ego, but it is its own thing as well when out and about in the world. (AE: Ba)<br />
<br />
Intent: The intent like the will in that it sets up the game plan for future encounters. Intention is in some sense separate from your ego, because sometimes we are not fully aware of our intentions. But in some way it must be an extension of the Ego. (AE: Ba)<br />
<br />
<u>The Relationship Between the 7 Souls of the Egyptians and the Chakras</u><br />
<br />
It is possible that each of the 7 components to the soul is regulated by a different energy chakra. This would mean that these chakras are the energy centres to each of these individual components.<br />
<br />
Root Chakra: Body<br />
Sacral Chakra: Energy body<br />
Solar Plexus: Intent<br />
Heart Chakra: Emotional body<br />
Throat Chakra: Attention<br />
Ajna Chakra: Ego<br />
Crown Chakra: Astral Body<br />
<br />
I should point out here that when I speak of each of these things being separate they are not really separate at all. The physical body and all of the others are an explicit value of the implicit order of the true human soul; the Ego.<br />
<br />
These energy bodies can take on human form. When they do so they can be mistakenly referred to as tulpas. Certain intoxicating substances can reveal the presence of these parts of the human soul, which I call avatars/archetypes. To understand what I mean when I speak of avatars think back: Have you ever been in a room with one or two other people and felt that there was a third or a fourth or a fifth person there with you? If you have then you are probably encountering yourself or another's avatars.<br />
<br />
Scientists tell us that we only use 10% of our brain at anyone time. This is because the other avatars are utilising the remaining 90% to their own ends. Avatars are extremely important socially as well as magically. They can be used to mediate between you and another persons avatars on an astral level. They set up the situations necessary for all types of magical works to come to fruition.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Note the Rainbow.</div>
<br />
It is possible to meet with your avatars in the astral plain; i.e. dream worlds. They will also be present to guide you when you die, this is the meaning of the term 'Six Feet Under' i.e. there are 6 chakras under the main one.<br />
<br />
The chakra body, which exists in an astral dimension, could also be referred to as the Rainbow Body, as it consists of the 7 rainbow/spectrum colors. Rainbows, as a natural weather phenomenon, exist at an angle of 42 degrees to the observer. This means that the seven colours of the rainbow occupy a range 6 degrees each; because 6 x 7 = 42.<br />
<br />
Violet:..................0- 6 degrees<br />
Indigo:.................7-12 ° <br />
Blue:..................13-18 °<br />
Green:................19-24 °<br />
Yellow:..............25-30 °<br />
Orange:..............30-36 °<br />
Red:...................36-42 °<br />
<br />
These are the 6 degrees of separation, that exist in a variety of different network systems, including our own human social networks. The Law of 6 degrees states that each person in the world can be linked to any other person in no more than six steps.<br />
<br />
It is important to note that 'violet' occupies the first magnitude of degree range; 0-6°, while red, which is ordinarily though to come first, occupies the last. Thus the colours of the spectrum do not go; red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, but rather in the reverse. This is related to an important occult fact that, after a long period of work done upon your chakras; through meditation and light work, the order of your chakras alters so that red occupies the crown chakra and violet the base.<br />
<br />
Going back to human social networks then, it is conceivable that there is an energetic copy of you existing in the seventh order magnitude of separation (you yourself being the first) and that this person you will never meet, such is their unerring fate, and yet you share with them all of your intrinsic emotional values, beliefs and aspirations.<br />

<i>The Synesthetics of Time</i><br />
<br />
Many people suffer, to a greater or lesser degree, from a condition known as Synesthesia. In extreme cases sounds are regularly reinterpreted by the synesthete as colours or even tastes. A common form of synesthesia is to do with the ascribing of colours to both letters and numbers; so 'a' might be brown, 3 green etc.<br />
<br />
A recent scientific study has found that a large number of people exhibit instances of synesthesia in relation to the passage of time. They discovered that the majority of the volunteers have constructed complex and elegant spatial diagrams that denote the course of the year from winter to winter.<br />
<br />
Lets try a short experiment of our own shall we? What colour do you think the days of the week are? For me it goes;<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJGK0x8Cgnlnq6sqT4PaIu6Fl9Rm3c7mKARxkqlJMm88_5KlG7MW9VxmHRzt36oiuooOGikgC7-UE2sXXb3vvOtQnH1dzuEZ0aX48NA3FcCa0VtJRj_RmwzJhkwOSNSSSqV4el8PuGqVPM/s1600/timespectrum.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJGK0x8Cgnlnq6sqT4PaIu6Fl9Rm3c7mKARxkqlJMm88_5KlG7MW9VxmHRzt36oiuooOGikgC7-UE2sXXb3vvOtQnH1dzuEZ0aX48NA3FcCa0VtJRj_RmwzJhkwOSNSSSqV4el8PuGqVPM/s200/timespectrum.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
Sunday = Blue<br />
Monday = Red<br />
Tuesday = Greeny Yellow<br />
Wednesday = Magenta/Violet<br />
Thursday = Sandy Yellow<br />
Friday = Rusty Orangey Yellow<br />
Saturday = Indigo<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The process of synesthesia is largely subjective, so don't worry if your colors differ from mine in their order or their hue. What I would ask you to do, however, is to adjust your synesthesia so that each day is represent by one of the 7 colours of the rainbow, this way we can begin to construct what is to be known as your individual Time Spectrum™.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFE1b5hECVpt8oCm_EMQpfbCVbIagWmboLhdZUo6qz4o3BSowRgeYHOIBXVkui9ckf21bgWRhEiYEy2G-SZDBEyrJXbrq6c5_gP57WxYB_ZeMZsamQfTa0agPAa2QRyukdDTY5GOCwSkH0/s1600/timespectrum2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="191" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFE1b5hECVpt8oCm_EMQpfbCVbIagWmboLhdZUo6qz4o3BSowRgeYHOIBXVkui9ckf21bgWRhEiYEy2G-SZDBEyrJXbrq6c5_gP57WxYB_ZeMZsamQfTa0agPAa2QRyukdDTY5GOCwSkH0/s200/timespectrum2.jpg" width="200" /></a>Now take the order of the days of the week and rearrange them so that the colours are in the same order as they appear in the spectrum. Like so;<br />
<br />
Monday; Red,<br />
Friday; Orange<br />
Thursday; Yellow<br />
Tuesday; Green<br />
Sunday; Blue<br />
Saturday; Indigo<br />
Wednesday; Violet<br />
<br />
For me this changes the order of the days to Monday, Friday, Thursday, Tuesday, Sunday, Saturday, Wednesday, or M, F, T, T, S, S,W. We can see that there is an implicit order in this, because the 'T's and 'S's are paired together and the inverted 'W' and "M' symbols, denoting the beginning and end of the cycle, are also thusly paired.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH6_nNoZ4X4iXfcRh-ULRO_6gxuSnxdbhdl2o-J5cdIxmNuvlA1Zyd3glGUKFZYR02s0GxOt1gQuLggUc0GSWOfapwrPkswpGt2xnz_KnGjLBax0YygXcbEbTWlcdAhI6DuolSx1wvBnva/s1600/timespectrum3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH6_nNoZ4X4iXfcRh-ULRO_6gxuSnxdbhdl2o-J5cdIxmNuvlA1Zyd3glGUKFZYR02s0GxOt1gQuLggUc0GSWOfapwrPkswpGt2xnz_KnGjLBax0YygXcbEbTWlcdAhI6DuolSx1wvBnva/s200/timespectrum3.png" width="200" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Blocking in the days reveals the first</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">segment of the Rainbow Bridge.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
If we were to plot these in a contiguous manner, we would see that there are 4 days between Monday and Friday, 6 between Friday and Thursday, 5 days between Thursday and Tuesday, another 5 between Tuesday and Sunday, 6 between Sunday and Saturday and finally another four between Sat and Wednesday, with Wednesday being its own day.<br />
<br />
As we can see this gives us a very definite pattern of; 4, 6, 5, 5, 6, 4.<br />
<br />
This palindromic number sequence sums to a total of 30 days, a good approximation of the number of days in a month - Wednesday makes it 31 - and is confirmation of the implicit order we spoke of earlier. But what the hell is it?<br />
<br />
When we input this data into Google or Yahoo! we find that it is a segment, a very central segment of a much longer series that is part of one of the oldest and most profound number sequences in existence. The full sequence, which is characterised by an ascending/descending order, is;<br />
<br />
0, 10, 1, 9, 2, 8, 3, 7, <b>4, 6, 5, 5, 6, 4,</b> 7, 3, 8, 2, 9, 1, 10, 0, 9, 1 ...<br />
<br />
This gives us a formula by which we can extend the Time Spectrum™ into the preceding and anteceding month. Like so;<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Starting arbitrarily on June first of this year we have;<br />
<br />
1; Indigo, 9; blue, 2; green, 8; yellow, 3; orange, 7; red, 4; red, 6; orange, 5; yellow, 5; green, 6; blue, 4; Indigo, 7; Violet, 3; Violet, 8; Indigo, 2; blue, 9; green, 1; yellow days, and another intercalary day which represents zero; coloured black (not shown).<br />
<br />
This is a total of 91 days.<br />
91 by 4 equals 364, very close to the length of the entire year.<br />
<br />
When we insert our intercalary day we are able to tesselate the Rainbow Bridge Calendar across the entire spectrum of time. The intercalary day - of which there are four - is a day out of time, and so is denoted by the colour black. Interestingly, this intercalary day is always on a Friday. These 'Black Fridays' are <i>rest days</i> in the calendar, a time to take stock and do nothing.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDtOG6i2SBdwWs9fWB9v7DTdig7NSBImrZT7EbO72kJgtyqF1VqPucHxwFm8FOgUZqYCsBHTA5ywpysvAuEZ-SbYqyG1ZrTD34050JKC2nSt78vWGsL9pi6ko_c_7KsKq3WgVbu040KHr-/s1600/rainbowbridge.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDtOG6i2SBdwWs9fWB9v7DTdig7NSBImrZT7EbO72kJgtyqF1VqPucHxwFm8FOgUZqYCsBHTA5ywpysvAuEZ-SbYqyG1ZrTD34050JKC2nSt78vWGsL9pi6ko_c_7KsKq3WgVbu040KHr-/s1600/rainbowbridge.png" /></a></div>
But what about the other days? Well, I propose that each coloured section corresponds to one of the seven chakras and that the specific chakra meditation or comportment should be observed on those days. This gives you a kind of solid structure to plan your year on, but not one that I would expect anyone to rigidly adhere to. Just take it in mind and your chakra system should do the rest for you.<br />

2012 Rainbow Calendar. <i>Cross the Rainbow Bridge</i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I developed the concept of the Rainbow Bridge Calendar in December 2012. I decided to fill the month of October in first, as this was the only month that began with on a Monday. This was my '<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_letter_day">red-letter' day</a>, and the end of the 'Hunt for the Red October'. I completed the calendar on the night of December 20th 2012, the night before the Mayan Calendar was set to end.<br />
<br />
This makes me feel that somehow the Rainbow Bridge Calendar was meant to carry us over from that old system into a new age of time. It is the cantenary I spoke of in <a href="http://pearlsofwar.blogspot.ie/2011/08/45-46.html">Fragment 45-46</a>. The keystone of this bridge is the ...5, 5... portion of the number series. Interestingly, my birthday is the 5th of May.<br />
<br />
But I don't really feel like I should take all the credit for this work. The whole computational operation has a very Terrence McKenna-esque quality to it, and in fact I feel like I was channeling him for the most part of this article.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KCD2PZgGK5jgYzpg83qzdBMODDW0g7DtfA3G9cTPmqPwpmYDelwFx3q-2ko1AQecpOu-ZdpVCqoVxbsV1PRrF6M6pCoqUQKyvP6wBs_ZYz4j7OMZ1iRcMUYVSxv3BGLAGAqJSub41q2E/s1600/mayan_calendar1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KCD2PZgGK5jgYzpg83qzdBMODDW0g7DtfA3G9cTPmqPwpmYDelwFx3q-2ko1AQecpOu-ZdpVCqoVxbsV1PRrF6M6pCoqUQKyvP6wBs_ZYz4j7OMZ1iRcMUYVSxv3BGLAGAqJSub41q2E/s400/mayan_calendar1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The Rainbow Calendar resembles the Mayan Calendar in the sense that it is based on a specified number of days and is therefore not a solar calendar. For this reason, if my calculations are correct, it should not precess with the addition of leap years etc.<br />
<br />
I feel this gives a stability to the Gregorian Calendar, which was lacking up until now.<br />
<br />
From a philosophical perspective, I feel the Rainbow Calendar hints towards a physical understand of the nature of time. Einstein's Theory of Relativity suggests that everything that is happening, has happened or will happen in the Universe, all happens at the same time. This moment, which we could refer to as the Big Bang Singularity, is like a kind of extremely compressed file, expressed in the form of a blinding white light. This white light is the Ground Luminousity of the Buddhists and the All, God, call it what you will.<br />
<br />
Just as a droplet of water distorts the passage of a beam of light to create the effect of a rainbow to an observer, it would appear that we exist at an angle; of roughly 42º, to this inexplicable Unity.<br />
<br />
Otherwise, we are in the process of unpacking data from it, teasing out information, as a spectral analyst might, or a poker player spreads a deck of cards. The Rainbow Calendar suggests that if we were to alter or perspective on time and space, or somehow managed to quicken its pace, the colours of the Time Spectrum would all merge together to form the Blinding White Light, or the original data package, of the All.<br />
<br />
So, are you a Synesthete? If so, please post what colour you think the days of the week are below. If you request it and leave your e-mail address, I may even be able to construct your own individual Time Spectrum™and Rainbow Bridge Calendar, though this remains to be seen.<br />

<i>How to Design Environmentally.</i><br />
<br />
One day I went walking up a mountain near my house. When I looked back upon the ocean, I noticed that the horizon was not smooth, as you might expect, but faceted like the edge of a many sided polyhedron. The lines were blending into one another in a fractal manner, and to me at least they seemed to express the ratio of the Golden Mean 1.618.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRuDQM57bu61y-VAceP7DAvqlIK6NlFVimk83O1FZP4-Dgvfb2MVHLReGkznMSNVlP8ZmA4kGexymA3-N_lGPpzjE0WZa7QuDD79yLPjuXH9-VXwQtaSUjv-mCRMUhMbilUj9STyC5_V5d/s1600/geophi.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRuDQM57bu61y-VAceP7DAvqlIK6NlFVimk83O1FZP4-Dgvfb2MVHLReGkznMSNVlP8ZmA4kGexymA3-N_lGPpzjE0WZa7QuDD79yLPjuXH9-VXwQtaSUjv-mCRMUhMbilUj9STyC5_V5d/s400/geophi.jpg" width="306" /></a></div>

<br />
It was then that I realised that although this aspect ratio is used extensively for the design of everything from cigarette packets to computer screens and credit cards, the ratio itself has no single conceptual grounding. It is based off of arbitrary parametres set by practical concerns, i.e. what is convenient to most people: What fits most comfortably in the hand, what size doorway will accommodate most people etc.<br />
<br />
The Anthropocentric basis of the Golden Aspect Ratio may serve to make us feel good about ourselves and our inventions. But, as we see time and time again, our inventions are harming the planetary environment at an astonishing and ever-increasing rate. Therefore, I suggest that we abandon our anthropocentric design aspects and switch to a more Geocentric model.<br />
<br />
How do we do this?<br />
<br />
Simple.<br />
We merely take the Earth's equatorial circumference; 40,075.16 km, and divide it down by Phi until we reach a manageable or required dimension.<br />
<br />
Circumference of the Earth; 40,075.16Km / Phi 1.618 =<br />
<br />
24, 768. 331 km continued. 625. 70 metres<br />

<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span> 1. 012 2. 557<br />

<br />
<br />
The purpose of these new Geocentric aspect ratios are to remind us that our designs, our products, and ourselves, are all part of the Earth and that we should be honour bound to value the environment for this reason.<br />
<br />
This set of measurements, which I have dubbed Geophi, are supposed to make us feel good about ourselves, our creations, and our relationship with the Earth into the future.<br />
<br />
You will notice that the Geophi measurements conform to the height construction of the Giza Pyramid, and that other mathematical constant Pi. Does this mean that the Ancient Egyptians took into consideration the dimensions of the Earth and the constant Phi when building the pyramids?<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I would like to think so. Indeed other researchers have compiled scores of measurements that suggest the structure is in fact an abstract scale model of planet Earth.<br />
<br />
I propose that the harmonic mathematical relationship between this most ancient of structures and the planet is the reason for its lasting so long.<br />
<br />
If modern architects were to employ the same set of measurements they too could create a space where people might feel more connected to the environment. A place to feel both proud of man's achievements and gratitude to this most benevolent of planets we now call our home. Who knows harmonic resonance with the Earth might even make them withstand earthquakes better, just as it is the case with the pyramids.<br />
<br />
So next time you are making a card, or a magazine, or building a building, remember to include the Geophi measurements, and see if you notice the difference.<br />

<i>An Expose of Geomantic Alignments in Dublin City</i><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.heritageireland.ie/en/Dublin/StAudeonsChurch/">St. Audeon's church</a> is the only medieval parish left in Dublin City and is situated behind the old city walls. As you might expect, there are a number of old legends and superstitions –some wholesome and some not so – concerning this most ancient part of Dublin. One tradition stated that the first person through the city gates on New Years Day, which was usually a woman, would also be the first to be married that year. A much darker tradition was carried out in front of a great stone portal, which lies just inside the main gate, known as one of the 5 Gateways to the Underworld. In days gone by, women would carry their unwanted or unbaptised babies down into this passageway and leave them there for the chruch to deal with. The doorway was eventually bricked up, many hundreds of years ago, because of this practice. But the legends still remain.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I wondered where the other gateways to the Underworld might be located, and assuming that they must all be located around Dublin City proper, I went in search of information about them. I am well aware that there are numerous underground walkways and waterways about the city, some of which were used to transport goods and alcohol to the various taverns, but I could not find anymore information about where these entrances might be located, and more importantly, which of them lead to the realms of the dead.<br />
I have already discussed the occult significance of the counties of Ireland and how they relate to the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram (LBRP) in Magical Traditions. So, it seemed likely to me that if these other gateways did indeed exist they too might be arranged in the form of a pentagram. Armed with this I set about making lines across maps of the city and discovered something interesting. These are my findings;<br />
<br />
To begin with we need to understand a little about the meaning of the pentagram, its use in ritual and its related alchemical symbolism. The five points of the pentagram each represent a different classical elements. These are; earth, air, fire, water and spirit. The pentagram in LBRP is used by initiates to banish unwanted or demonic forces. To do this the initiate, either using their finger or the blade of a dagger, would draw the pentagram symbol in the air. They would start at the bottom left hand corner, carry their way on up to the top point and then down and around in a clockwise manner. Each point on the pentagram also has an associated symbolic meaning such that;<br />
<br />
Earth = Truth<br />
Spirit = Power<br />
Fire = Knowledge<br />
Air = Love<br />
Water = Wisdom<br />
<br />
Assuming that important landmarks are going to appear at each of the 5 points of our star, we can see that Trinity College lies on the same latitude as St. Audeon's and would therefore correspond to Fire. This is acceptable because Trinity College is obviously a place of learning, and therefore knowledge. St. Audeon's corresponds to the characteristic of Truth (Earth) presumably because of the religious Truth implicit in Christ the Saviour.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So far so good.<br />
<br />
However, when we try to connect these two points together at the apex of Spirit, things take an unexpected turn. For here we find the Mater hospital. The Mater Hospital is an important hospital in Dublin with a large mortuary. It is easy to see why it should be thought of as the 2nd gateway to the Underworld, as it is through these doors that many Dubliners have passed through after death. Like any hospital it is also services by a large network of tunnels, which might very well extend under the city.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgojCH0Puo94bftiJsnb3ReAaUJkIsmq2Gw-OGy1iOXNG1BoNSRlgygyyBiySSMc6G1BZduwXpda65grVo9p5CMbYuIP9azvCrqW6XpB_jgm9TnXVBCVEQvuifH2CKakUAntMjeQAnr2UCv/s1600/dublinpent1a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgojCH0Puo94bftiJsnb3ReAaUJkIsmq2Gw-OGy1iOXNG1BoNSRlgygyyBiySSMc6G1BZduwXpda65grVo9p5CMbYuIP9azvCrqW6XpB_jgm9TnXVBCVEQvuifH2CKakUAntMjeQAnr2UCv/s400/dublinpent1a.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
'Mater' is of course Latin for Mother, i.e. Mother of God the Virgin Mary, but it can also be interpreted to mean simply 'matter', as in the base material world. The symbol for Spirit is a circle, whereas the symbol for base matter (or salt) is a circle with a line through it. This seems to suggest that matter is the negation of Spirit. Does this mean that the creators of the geomantic pentagram, whoever they may be, are trying to replace Spirit with Matter? And if so, why?<br />
<br />
The loss of Spirit from the zenith is a common theme in Judeo-Christian belief systems, showing the fall of man into the material realms. William Blake also made diagrams showing how Urizen (reason) fell from the zenith to the nadir and was replaced by Urthoma (matter, opacity). The famous Irish poet William Butler Yeats wrote extensively about these diagrams, which he assumed to be under some kind of eternal, or infernal, rotation. What William Blake is really describing is the fall of Lucifer from heaven and the creation of Heaven and Hell, Good and Evil.<br />
<br />
Having already touched on Trinity College and the Fire/Knowledge element we can go directly to the fourth element: Air. And this is where things get really weird. The left hand point of the pentagram aligns with the corner of the <a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Richmond_District_Lunatic_Asylum_(Grangegorman_Mental_Hospital,_St._Brendan's_Psychiatric_Hospital)_Grangegorman,_Dublin_7,_Ireland.jpg">Richmond District Lunatic Asylum</a>. Also known as the lower house or the female house, the now derelict building is located at the end of the curved and lonely Morning Star Avenue. The Morning Star is associated with Venus, the Goddess of Beauty, as well as Lucifer, and is depicted by the pentagram. 'Air' and 'love' are both light and feminine in their attributes, but they are also associated with insanity. This is how we come upon terms like 'airy fairy' or 'madly in love'.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5e2O_ShzOW_KgdfqDcozAv3pAVe7iq2GsM7FR6s61PfIFu20-13-Xgdvrm7oxsgMCXA8Bfg73YeVi0CELSyo-m-i-0vSZV_5R2LhV7L12i8M5kC7hwDYKizAq5mYziBymDG-3tIGWkYpG/s1600/dublinpent2+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="277" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5e2O_ShzOW_KgdfqDcozAv3pAVe7iq2GsM7FR6s61PfIFu20-13-Xgdvrm7oxsgMCXA8Bfg73YeVi0CELSyo-m-i-0vSZV_5R2LhV7L12i8M5kC7hwDYKizAq5mYziBymDG-3tIGWkYpG/s400/dublinpent2+copy.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
From here we head east towards the water element, but when we get there we find nothing of interest, just a block of generic flats. It is true that the sea lies in this direction but it is some ways off. In order to fit this piece of the puzzle in, we must conspire to use our wisdom.<br />
<br />
If we offset the line so that it runs through the site of Dublin's most famous and obvious land mark, the Spire, we arrive at one of its most important centres of power the Irish Houses of Parliament. Again there are tunnels linking the Houses of Parliament to Trinity College and the rest of the City. There is even a tunnel that runs underneath the Spire to facilitate workers in maintaining the lights atop of it. I think it is clear that the element water has less to do with 'wisdom', in this case, than it does with power.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The wisdom to rule? The House of Commons and the water.</div>
<br />
So far the pentagram has been aligned to true North. If we rotate our pentagram in an anti-clockwise manner to conform with our offset line, the pentagram now aligns with a good approximation of where we might expect magnetic North to be.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
If we then superimpose both pentagrams we get a very interesting and powerful looking sigil overlaid across Dublin City, which to my mind looks very similar to the Sigil of Lucifer, or perhaps to the Gateway symbol of Lovecraft's supposedly fictional Necronomicon.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The inner vertices also show some interesting correspondences. The vertex marked 'A' rests on the Kings Inn Law Society. Interestingly, the line heading off towards the Richmond Asylum exits through the main gates of this building complex, the main gates are constructed in the form of a temple and appears to be dedicated to the Greek God Dionysus.<br />
Point 'B' rests atop another hospital, this time the Rotunda. Point 'E' appears to correspond to the corner of the GPO, or possible Henry Street. Points 'D' and 'F' appear to have no significant correspondences, although perhaps they did in times gone by. The two lines that leave point 'F' convene with the South Side quays at precisely the same point that two main bridges; the Ha'penny Bridge and the Ormond Quay bridge connect back to the land.<br />
<br />

The length of the lines between each point on the pentagram is around 1.01 miles, that is around 1776 yards. 1776 was the year of the United States Declaration of Independence was signed in Philadelphia.<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Eight of the signatories are Irish American, three (Matthew Thornton, George Taylor and James Smith) having been born in Ireland. (Wiki)</blockquote>
Perhaps the most well known of the secret geomantic pentagrams is the one that points to the White House in Washington DC. Does this mean that the layout of Dublin somehow foreshadowed the creation of the American Republic, and did the pentagram makers take their trade to America with them?<br />

1776 is 888 plus 888. Triplets such as these are deemed important when dealing with astral beings such as angels and demons. Other measurements in the pentagram include; 717, 375, and 342 yds.<br />

<br />
In 1776 the notorious Hellfire Club were still active in Dublin. From their vantage point on Montpellier Hill they would have been able to easily trace the form of this pentagram out on the landscape of the city. The Hellfire Club were obsessed with black magic and Satanism, they would meet regularly on the hill to 'taste the pleasures of Hell'. However, neither the Richmond Lunatic Asylum, nor the Mater Hospital existed at this time. So unless one of their number was involved in the planning and building of these establishments their involvement in the matter seems unlikely, if not impossible.<br />
<br />
Now I am not saying that anyone intentionally constructed this shape as a form of geomancy. It is very likely that this is all coincidence. But coincidence is synonymous with correspondence. The occult is based on such correspondences, and so we can say that this is still a legitimate piece of occult research.<br />
<br />
So what did we learn?<br />
<br />
Well we learnt that Urthoma (matter) still holds the zenith position in the LPBR. We also learnt that Water has taken up the mantel of Power, in the seeming absence of Spirit. We learnt that Air is associated with the Divine Feminine and Madness. And that this house is referred to as the Female House. The right hand side must therefore be the Male house, the Earth and Fire Houses below. Because the Legion of Mary is located on Morning Star Avenue, we can assume that Mary, in some way evokes, the planet Venus.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, if <a href="http://pearlsofwar.blogspot.ie/2012/01/land-of-oz.html">Ireland is meant to be the basis for Frank Baum's Land of Oz</a>, then Trinity College, i.e. College Green, is the gateway to the Emerald City. And the Emerald Tablet?<br />
<br />
Why that would be the Book of Kells, of course...</div>

As its name would suggest the classical labyrinth has very few variations of type. This might possibly stem from the traditionalist nature of most hermetic orders. Labyrinths are supposed to be confusing. Therefore it is my belief that an increase in variation within the labyrinth structure could only boost its power as a talismanic object.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I began with making 5, 6, and 7-fold labyrinths. Notice how the 7-fold labyrinth has three centers making it symbolically associated with the triskele and the triquetra. For this reason I suggest this as a highly powerful symbol representing the 7,3-fold nature of the cosmos, as avowed by the Ancient Egyptians. </div>

<br />
Next we have 8-fold labyrinth together with a hyper-dimensional theory of light (how did that get in there?).<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix3bZNQvwVrw9q024-p8xYitDl30MFgvI78aEyDf27QOFLeY5PHR8A8dBFc41rBxygxOPrZffnIWuzo7QtjwDgj6B2cYBjTuJ4lGktUUFWf9VGFeJ-daP_032wYueDxcFYzJKfmmQUj3pb/s1600/8-foldlab.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEix3bZNQvwVrw9q024-p8xYitDl30MFgvI78aEyDf27QOFLeY5PHR8A8dBFc41rBxygxOPrZffnIWuzo7QtjwDgj6B2cYBjTuJ4lGktUUFWf9VGFeJ-daP_032wYueDxcFYzJKfmmQUj3pb/s400/8-foldlab.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Finally there are what I refer to as hyperbolic labyrinths, which are really just the same things stretched in perspective.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i>Nothing is permanent not even death.</i><br />
<br />
Who came up with these insane rules?<br />
We want to live forever<br />
We don't want to live forever,<br />
We want to die.<br />
We are afraid of death.<br />
<br />
We live our lives fearing death, and then even with our death we find no peace, discovering instead that we must be reborn to face –<br />
What?<br />
Judgement?<br />
Immortality on Earth?<br />
In Heaven?<br />
Go again?<br />
On the wheel of the Zeitgeist?<br />
<br />
We are alive in the imagination of God, is that it?<br />
Living out our dreams and fantasies.<br />
But there is a snake in the Garden.<br />
Beware the perils of sensory gratification and ignorance.<br />
Where have you been for the last six thousand years?<br />
Grappling with your own vivid imagination and deeply instinctual passions?<br />
Have we stepped through the mirror and found ourselves in contact with a world,<br />
so energetic, so gravitic, and chaotic, the it barely knows its own name?<br />
<br />
It can't seem to make up its mind;<br />
Does it want to protect you or eat you?<br />
Are you its sole focus or does it recognise you at all?<br />
Are you the weakling child, broken off and cast into the sacred,<br />
sleeping river to synch the spin; sink or swim?<br />
Passed through the gash in the ash tree...<br />
The woodgate, lawngate, watergate.<br />
Have we always been dreaming?<br />
Dreaming that we are just awakening to the fact that we are immortal?<br />
Immortally mortal, doomed to live out endless lives in frail bodies,<br />
at the mercy of the clockwork machinations of the Heavens, I have come to despise?<br />
I am not surprised.<br />
<br />
You know what?<br />
Stay asleep.<br />
Stay put in your classical reality where the focus length on the real world is correctly set,<br />
and you do not drift off into the uncertain certainty of quantum building park lands.<br />
Stay anchored to the shores of normality, and blinkered to anything beyond these next few<br />
words, beyond the scope of your relationships and the sphere of your perceptions.<br />
<br />
<i>In short, stay comfortably dumb.</i><br />

<i><u>How the Chakras link to human brain wave functions.</u></i><br />
<br />
The Seven Chakras of the human body are relatable to the seven primary brain wave frequencies that determine mental states. Delta waves which have a frequency of 0-4 Hz occur in the brain during deep sleep. Alpha waves (8-12 Hz) occur within the brain when the eyes are closed. Beta waves (13-30 Hz) occur within the brain when the eyes are open. However, the function of other brain waves, such as theta for example, is not well understood by scientists. Although it may have some correspondence either to sexual intercourse, or REM sleep.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgils7P95Zq6aC8yTLCLm2Pl1qg6S1YivaOom4olOBplNmniAlsCYPzLXUlhKcE4FmlRk8janPzFsiP5bDVw503pVhww7qj-pXCSr-Zu0XBFFtu15_7Y0jeNzKqEMwIZ9qcZ1e90wBgAQ0t/s1600/chakrawaves.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgils7P95Zq6aC8yTLCLm2Pl1qg6S1YivaOom4olOBplNmniAlsCYPzLXUlhKcE4FmlRk8janPzFsiP5bDVw503pVhww7qj-pXCSr-Zu0XBFFtu15_7Y0jeNzKqEMwIZ9qcZ1e90wBgAQ0t/s640/chakrawaves.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
By understanding what functions the different brain waves regulate we can create a systematised correspondence between it and the chakras. Starting with the Base Chakra then, we have;</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
Delta waves (0-4 Hertz); before you go asleep meditate on the base chakra.<br />
Theta waves (6-10 Hz); before or during sexual intercourse meditate on the Sacral Chakra.<br />
Alpha waves (8-12 Hz); when meditating with the eyes closed concentrate on the Solar Plexus.<br />
Beta waves (13-30 Hz); when meditating with eyes open focus on the Heart Chakra.<br />
Lamda (25-40 Hz): When speaking, reciting mantras, singing etc. rest in the Throat Chakra.<br />
Gamma (25-100 Hz); Meditating on compassion in the Anja Chakra.<br />
Psi (100+ Hz); Meditation on either transcendence or death should be concerned with the Crown Chakra.<br />
<br />
These methods could be employed by themselves or in conjunction with Binaural Beats. But as in the case of binaural beats I suggest extreme caution when practicing any of the above exercises as they are very powerful. You should only attempt these meditations for a few minutes at a time and only when you feel like it, otherwise you may suffer a mental crash.<br />

In Buddhism there is some reference to the concept of the disconnection of the senses; therefore how sight does not conform to touch etc. This is a realisation which is supposed to be derived from meditation, but the opposite can also be found to be the case. We can imagine that the senses are not disconnected, as supposed by the buddhists and others, but rather represents a continuous line, or spiral, looping in and out of our dimensional plane. Where this spiral intersects our plane of reality we experience a different intensity or level of vibration, which corresponds to each of the different senses.<br />

This would infer that between hearing and seeing, for example, is a continuum of experience that is by varying degrees a mixture of the two.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
During meditation people are often asked to focus one or other the glands in the human brain; either the Pineal or Pituitary glands. This can serve as an annoyance to meditators, because in the first instance it is difficult to locate either of these glands accurately. You can't just open up your brain and take a look inside... And in the second instance, because it is difficult to see how remaining quiet and present with either of these glands is really going to cause them to activate or 'open'. Another problem with these exercises is the close proximity between the pineal gland – region closely related to compassionate feelings – and the amygdala, which controls fear and the flight or fight mechanism. It is obviously more beneficial to focus on the pineal gland then on the amygdala, therefore.<br />

The human ear is a message written in flesh on the sides of our heads. The very shape of the ear is a riddle calling for an answer to be heard. Why are human ears shaped the way they are? Surely they could operate just as well simply as holes or featureless parabolas. And yet they express this convoluted form that is unique to each individual. Why?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Well, for a start the round shape of the ear closely imitates the shape of the cranium itself. Seeing as how these two prominent sense organs sit on either side of the head, it could mean that they are - in some way - trying to tell us about the shape of the brain matter within. I believe the ears are like a map made of cartilage, giving us a fractal cross-section of the brain that is not merely representative, but actually hardwired into the brain via a most sophisticated hardware of blood and nerve-endings.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Therefore, the ear is like a computer terminal that can be used to access parts of the brain (such as the Pineal Gland) from an external mode rather than an imprecise and messy internal one.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now I know that there those who might contest this view, saying how the shape of the human ear helps reflect sound into the ear drum, or some other thing. But such mundane observations and explanations as 'Ears, they make you hear," will not be entertained here.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

I believe that the human ear is the weirdest sense organ of the all. It is because of this 'weardness' that the human ear is possessed of a rich occult significance. This occult significance leads right back to what we were saying earlier on; about how the ear can be used to trigger areas of the brain that are beneficial to meditational practice. We can 'hear' with the ear, or we can be 'here' with it. In this case 'here' means to be present.</div>

By applying a moderate (slight) amount of pressure with the fingertips we can activate the different regions of the brain by an external and instantaneous process. No more sitting around messing up your meditation thinking about whether or not you are in the right region of the brain. By touching your ear on the points stipulated in the diagram you will receive the desired reaction almost instantly.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Green Dot in the image represents the area on the ear that conforms to the pituitary gland in the average brain. The Red, Blue, and Yellow dots therefore conform to the Third Eye, the Pineal Gland and the Crown Chakra, respectively.</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
By touching the Red and the Blue areas in tandem you will have activated the pineal gland and its gateway, the Third Eye together. Likewise, touching the Yellow and Green areas will allow you to access the Pituitary and Crown Chakra used in the Transcendental meditation phase.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This approach has some obvious resemblances to reflexology, but meditation is still required on the practitioner's part. OSVH.</div>

David Wilcox's site <a href="http://divinecosmos.com/start-here/davids-blog/896-chinasurprisequarantine">The Divine Cosmos</a> has an interesting run down of NASA Patches and how they purportedly contain hidden symbolism pertaining to the notion that Earth is under some kind of Extra-Terrestrial quarantine. According to Wilcox's article 'China's October Surprise II' this quartantine was held in place by a "vast network of super-advanced, indestructible satellites surrounding the Earth... These satellites keep humanity locked in -- and everyone else locked out."<br />
<br />
The main thrust of this analysis hinges on a number of recurring motifs in the NASA Patches, these include;<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
1: A pair of intersecting rings that surround the Earth and which, according to Wilcox, represent the energy barrier that upholds the Quarantine. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
2: Triangular objects that are thought by Wilcox to represent back engineered ET space craft. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
3: Two star-like objects that occur in conjunction with 'quarantine rings', that I have dubbed Sentinels.<br />

Other motifs such as gauntlets, lightning bolts and the Skull and Cross-bones, Wilcox attributes to the Knights Templar (or Knights Temporal). Where his argument seems to falter, however, is why the delta-shaped back engineered space-craft supposedly under human control would be represented as being part of the quarantine energy rings. It could be claimed that NASA officials are attempting to gain control of this system through a process of sigil magic. But that is assuming that the analysis of these patches is correct to begin with.<br />
<br />
It is my belief that there is a much simpler explanation for the NASA patch symbology, which involves neither ETs nor the Knights Templar and that is the Christian symbol for Christ; the Chi Rho. Chi Rho is an early form of christogram, formed by the superimposition of the first two capital letters 'chi' and 'rho' (XP) of the Greek word "ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ", meaning Christ. It is usually accompanied by the Greek letters 'Alpha' and 'Omega' to show that Christ is both the beginning and the end, and therefore timeless or eternal.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBx0DyoHgv1NljefTw1kuO1ZfOCp6D5E99UQO5vzbOET02Kq-ULeRpL3JRV_IooflpWQ7u_Ph99E5udXpUT4zzDDPYxkKh8mGN2AxihYs_e30gSURKaNN-iysjh3EA1_PNnTHQ2faT2Pa3/s1600/chi_rho.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBx0DyoHgv1NljefTw1kuO1ZfOCp6D5E99UQO5vzbOET02Kq-ULeRpL3JRV_IooflpWQ7u_Ph99E5udXpUT4zzDDPYxkKh8mGN2AxihYs_e30gSURKaNN-iysjh3EA1_PNnTHQ2faT2Pa3/s200/chi_rho.gif" width="193" /></a></div>
The 'X' of Chi-Rho is clearly shown in the NASA patches as the supposed 'quarantine rings' of Wilcox's article. If this is correct it means that the triangular-shaped craft stands for 'Alpha' and nothing more. By comparison the letter 'Omega' is rarely seen, but it does make an appearance in the 310th Communications Flight badge, in the form of energy flowing from two iron gloves.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
What this tells us is that the NASA and Space Command Flight patches are uniquely Christian in origin. This really should not surprise us, as America was founded as a Christian country and religion has always been traditionally linked with the armed forces.<br />
<br />
But is there anything we can say in defense of Wilcox's claim? Well, actually there is quite a lot we can say. The concept of the Earth being under some kind of extra-terrestrial quarantine is not new, and – from what I can tell – is directly connected to the secret rites of the Theosophical Society. Theosophists believed that the ruling class, the upper echelons of society, were all extra-terrestrial shapeshifting reptiles, who came here from another planet (See: <i>Vril, The Coming Race</i>). Obviously, David Icke is not the originator of this claim.<br />
<br />
These aliens were 'The Fallen Ones' or Nephilim of Biblical Times. According to the occult and conspiracy researcher Michael Tsarion, the Nephilim came to the Earth to escape the persecution of benevolent ETs. When the ETs discovered the Nephilim on the Earth they imprisoned them here by creating an artificial satellite; our moon. The moon itself generated the energy field that was to quarantine the Earth. The phases of the moon, which show its apparent growth and waning in the night sky is described by the alchemical symbol of the Ouroboros, or the 'snake that eats its own tail'.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZCuOYf8C8_dZMUmzunh0jcgDjJSck0g4d53wqApnK6qYu-eHnITMiQu7F5mHk9LMttFH8YtbReMrppxPH9z00YTb4PWXyR0GlC1IsoJdyqY067Q_E1w15gZ6dtXx_ZVcnnTqqMnFXXo4n/s1600/ouroboros.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="315" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZCuOYf8C8_dZMUmzunh0jcgDjJSck0g4d53wqApnK6qYu-eHnITMiQu7F5mHk9LMttFH8YtbReMrppxPH9z00YTb4PWXyR0GlC1IsoJdyqY067Q_E1w15gZ6dtXx_ZVcnnTqqMnFXXo4n/s320/ouroboros.gif" width="320" /></a></div>
The Ouroboros is depicted as a ring, much like the 'quarantine rings' of Wilcox's article. But if the moon is the generator of the quarantine field, then why do the NASA patches consistently show two rings instead of just one? I have come to realise that these two rings represent the orbital plane of the moon and the plane of the ecliptic. Where these two orbits intersect, we get what is known as ascending and descending Lunar Nodes. These nodes account for the Solar and Lunar Eclipses, as seen from Earth.<br />
<br />
In ancient times little was known about the actual motions of celestial bodies, and in particular what caused solar and lunar eclipses. In order to explain the eclipses, two new heavenly bodies named Ketu and Rahu were introduced. Ketu and Rahu were believed to be two 'shadow planets' that were responsible for eating the Sun and the Moon during eclipses. From this it is plain to see that the two star-like Sentinels in the mission patches could either be the Sun and the Moon, or Ketu and Rahu.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/34/Lunar_eclipse_diagram-en.svg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="186" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/34/Lunar_eclipse_diagram-en.svg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Just as the phases of the moon were represented by the Ouroboros serpent, so Ketu was the head and Rahu the body of one enormous serpent. Therefore, Lunar Nodes of Ketu and Rahu could more accurately describe the operation of the 'quarantine field' than could the phases of the moon alone. The K-R of Ketu and Rahu relate back to the XP of Chi-Rho. Furthermore, the symbol for the Rahu and the ascending lunar node is the Greek letter 'Omega', meaning that this symbol is mathematically and figuratively implicit in each and every mission patch!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/eb/Orbit1.svg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/eb/Orbit1.svg" width="200" /></a></div>
So in conclusion it would appear that the mission patches conform to the idea that the moon generates some kind of quarantine field around the Earth, but only in the most obscure and convoluted kind of way.<br />

<i>How to Astral Project, or enter the Sub-conscious Realm of the Imagination</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The traditional view of astral projection is one in which the ethereal, or astral body, is projected out of the physical form to explore the physical environs and bring back information. Knowledge on how to achieve this type of projection is readily available in the public sphere and won't be gone into here. Instead what will be looked at here, is how to explore the realm of the sub-conscious or of the Imagination, which I think is a more pure and creative pursuit.<br />
<br />
The 20th Century psychologist Carl Jung believed the unconscious minds of all beings were connected and that they contained all of the imagery of history, prehistory, of myths and legends. It was further his belief that the contents of the subconscious minds formed the basis for man's psyche, and were therefore archetypal. Previously, the map of the subconscious had been drawn up by the grandfather of psychology Dr. Sigmund Freud, in the latter half of the 19th Century. He warned of the dangers resulting from close interaction with the subconscious mind, due to the fact that it contained all of mankind's irrational impulses. This opinion is contested by the writings of William Blake, who referred to the Unconscious as the Imagination, and invited people<i> to dive in</i>.<br />
<div style="min-height: 29px;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span></div>
Unfortunately, today people have become so disconnected from their subconscious mind that they have all but forgotten how to interact with it. Nowadays, people think any child who can pick up a stick and pretend that it is a spaceship as having a powerful imagination. But, in truth, they are not imagining anything at all, they are merely <i>play-acting</i>. The word 'imagination' implies the generation of imagery, and if you do not generate imagery you are not using your imagination to its fullest potential. The decline in the imagination is often blamed on television, and this is undeniable.<br />
<br />
Television subjugates the imagination. Without the use of this imagination - in the fullest sense of that word - the average person loses faith in themselves and in reality, as doubts and fears crowd the mind. TV does not destroy the imagination, such a thing is impossible. It can only suppress it making people forget that they ever had its use.<br />
<br />
Sigmund Freud's belief that the subconscious mind was somehow dangerous was a great influenced on his nephew Edward Bernays. Bernays was responsible for trying to limit people's interaction with their subconscious to try to engender a more cohesive society, in the United States. He has in the long run been criticised for creating passive, consumerist slaves. Whatever the case, Bernay's would have, no doubt, approved as television as a medium for stifling the imagination, and therefore control mankind's 'irrational' creative urges.<br />

I have compiled a list of 9 steps in order to help you reconnect with the realm of the imagination more easily. I think it is interesting that there are 9 of these steps, as the number 9 is of great occult and psychological import. Furthermore, the steps have a non-linear algorithmic function in Step, 4a and 4b.<br />
<div style="min-height: 29px;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span></div>
1. Close your eyes and imagine that there is a six inch wide line painted in white on the ground. It stretches off off into the horizon in both directions. Try to walk this line in your mind, one foot over the other.<br />
2. Next, imagine that the line is actually a metal girder raised five ft above the ground and supported at either end. Now walk this in the same way.<br />
3. Raise it 10 ft above the ground and walk it. At this point you should begin to notice a slight difference in the speed at which the ground moves relative to the girder. This is an effect that only your subconscious mind would include.<br />
4a. Raise it to a height of 15 ft. and repeat.<br />
4b. Continue raising the bar (by a factor of 10 ft.) until you feel ready to move onto the next step.<br />
5. Next imagine a skyscraper made of iron girders. This skyscraper is still under construction. You take the elevator to the 50th floor.<br />
6. Now you can walk around this environment. Pay attention to the foremen shouting orders to the workers. Watch from above as workmen weld the i-beams together.<br />
7. Walk along a beam, and before you get to the end turn around and walk back the other way.<br />
8. Jump off a beam and land on the next floor down.<br />
9. Jump off the building and fly around the city.<br />
<div style="min-height: 29px;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span></div>
After you complete these steps, go away and forget about it. Later, when you find a quiet moment to yourself, close your eyes and ask you subconscious mind to show you something. Your subconscious mind is always listening and does not really need any verbal command, merely your intent to be able to 'see'. At this point you should be presented with a lucid environment that is spontaneously generated, immersive and fully interactive. If this does not occur repeat the 9 Steps.<br />
<br />
From my own experience, I needed only to do the exercise the one time, and then after the rest period, I was able to instantly access the Subconscious Realm of the Imagination. There I met my power animal, my guide to the Astral Plane. It was a giant falcon, or Thunderbird. It flew me to the ocean at the Edge of the World. There I saw a number of jagged rocks jutting up from the water. On the largest of these was a building, resembling a public toilet from the Georgian Era. Its concrete walls were badly eroded and the sea was breaking in. I dismounted and entered into the gloomy corridor. Among the detritus of cracked mortar, I saw rats turned to stone. Their little paws broken off at the wrist. There was no doubt about it, this was the lair of Medusa and her Gorgon sisters.<br />
<br />

In the 9 steps, we start off visualising something relatively simple (a 2D white line) and escalate to a more complex 3D structure. This deliberate build up of the environment from first principles kicks starts the subconscious into generating worlds whenever you close your eyes and ask it to. You may want to adapt the 9 steps to suit your individual needs, for example I drew up these steps because I wanted to mentally overcome my innate fear of extreme heights. At any point you can use your imagination to visualise something that frightens you -- for example the open ocean -- and then come to terms with that fear. The most important thing to remember is that the subconscious mind will generate all of the imagery spontaneously and all you have to do is 'go with the flow'. There is nothing in your subconscious mind that can hurt you physically, or in any other way, so never be afraid of entering into the Gorgon's lair unarmed.<br />
<div style="min-height: 29px;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span></div>
Once you have systematically used your imagination to generate an environment, as shown in the 9 steps above, the subconscious mind feels comfortable not only to generate imagery but entire story lines. It is basically like lucid dreaming, only the contents of the dreams have far more narrative and are far more believable than anything I have encountered whilst asleep. I have been witness to brightly coloured pterodactyls gliding down by sea cliffs, seen ancient satellites orbiting plasma worlds, and walked with the ghosts of Harlem. All of these things are contained in your subconscious mind. We have all been to these places numerous times.<br />

When all images and thoughts have been silenced in the mind, we can truly begin to focus on the conscious self. At this point the conscious mind may appear to shrink in size. While this is happening remain focused on your breath. Soon you will encounter what I call the breath of Mid-Sleep.<br />
<br />
When starting out meditating you may find yourself nodding off. When this happens the head usually dips and you wake yourself back up again. This is the sharp drop-off towards deep sleep. What we are trying to achieve in this meditation exercise is a slow gradient in which the mind or body never actually gets to fall asleep. No doubt you will have experienced this sensation many times throughout your life. It comes when you are just about to drift off -- the mind is quiet, the breathing becomes heavier and then you either wake up again or lose consciousness entirely.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
Although this type of breathing occurs naturally when one is asleep, it is harder to reproduce while awake.<br />
<br />
When you rest in the nature of mind; devoid of all thought and imagery, begin focusing on the breath. Not only will you be able to feel the breath much clearer, but you will actually become it. The air will seem thicker in your lungs, and yet at the same time fresher.<br />
<br />
The Breath of Mid-Sleep could also be called the Double Breath, this is because it feels like you breathe twice, for each inhale. First you draw the air into your lungs, but then you draw more in on top of it. The second bout of air pushes down on the first and then when the resistance is overcome, the two flow passed one other. This is a very pleasurable sensation and is no doubt what stimulates the body into producing the chemical which sends one off to sleep.<br />
<br />
It is well known that the body repairs itself during sleep, in response to this chemical. Therefore the Breath of Mid-Sleep is conducive to the repair of the body and should be recognised as such. Conscious recognition and direction from the meditator will speed the process of recovery.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
From this more substantial air the ethereal body is able to manifest dreams. It is even possible that if the meditator were to become adept enough that he/she could use this breath to manifest dream objects, and people, in the real world. Literally, manifesting physical objects from 'thin air'.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
The Alchemists believed that natural things were divested of a 'life-force' and could be harnessed through alchemical processes. The most notable of these processes is called the Fire of Recirculation. Basically, a liquid that was deemed to have a substantial amount of life-force associated with it (i.e. dew, grape juice, or even urine) is placed over a steady flame, causing the fluid to gently convect. It was believed that if this level of heat was maintained for 3 years the alchemist would produce the Philosopher's Stone. In a sense, the Breath of Mid-Sleep can be seen to be analogous to the Fire of Recirculation, because air contains a very potent life-force and is continuously recirculated throughout the lungs and the body. Unlike urine or grape juice, however, the air cannot be consolidated into the Philosopher's Stone by means of heat. However, as I have already shown, the Breath of the Mid-Sleep is an effective way of 'fixing' the air (or to make it heavier), and so it is certain that the positive effects of this meditation on the body are akin to those of the Stone of the Philosophers.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
When you are confident that you can create the Breath of Mid-Sleep with ease, begin to raise consciousness, back out of itself and back into the normal world. Continue to breathe in this fashion for some time, whilst remaining conscious of your surroundings.</div>

<i>The Mind-body Inferface.</i></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
There are two main obstacles to obtaining Nirvana. The first is the ego that is obsessed with the up keep and maintenance of the body. It is of course very important to maintain a healthy body, but the mind should feel detached from all physical pain or concern for its physical well-being, from moment to moment. A great number of the relationship problems that we face between people are due to the ego attempting to ensure that body is comfortable, that it is well fed and looked after. This is all well and good, but it should not be done at the expense of others. The conscious mind is entirely connected with the body but this does not mean that it should identify with it on every level. The mind must seek to be in control of the body at all times, and be detached from its sufferings, which are in any case only a product of a perceived lack, generated by the conscious mind in the first place. No great pains are needed in this endeavor, and this goes without saying, because the main aim of meditational practice is to relieve suffering and its ills.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
The next obstacle is the ego itself. The ego is used to getting what it needs for the up keep of the body, and in times of scarcity it will go to extraordinary lengths to achieve it. This type of tenacity is admirable, but it shows the single-minded nature of the ego. It is singularly focused upon itself and its own well-being. The ego likes to mull things over and it will invariably bring up some occasion when it feels that you did not conform to the strict command; to always be on top and in the lead. This feeling of failure will cause a physical i.e. emotional response, that will make the self aware again. Having already mastered a level of control over our own bodies, halting the meddlesome ego and its contiguous emotional response is no longer so daunting a task.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
The frequency with which the ego brings up memories in which you feel inadequate is to be considered a blessing, as it provides ample opportunity for you to get proficient at halting its machinations and showing the ego that it is ultimately you who are in control of your physical and mental states.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
During the meditation, close your eyes and focus on the mind. The mind encompasses all things; the sensations of the body, the immediate environment as well as our sense of self. The body is certainly apart of the mind's remit but it is not the intended focus of meditation, it is rather a canvas or foundation on which the conscious self rests. Focus on that self. It is a strange and beautiful place. It has no real position, no real boundaries or focus, and yet it has what we call its own 'perspective'. When consciousness is not focused upon, it becomes heavy and makes a dint or depression in the mind. This is the negative or gravitic aspect of consciousness. When we focus upon our own consciousness we see that it is positive or radiant. This positive energy exerts the same amount of force in every direction of space-time, and so it is weightless. The negative gravity aspect of the mind is cancelled out by the positive electromagnetic aspect and vice versa. But concentration on one or the other will cause it to be noticed.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
When the meditator gains a proficiency in stopping all thought and focusing on their consciousness, they will notice that their mind drifts. Conscious focus will lapse and thoughts will spring into the mind. Often times the meditator will be almost unaware that they are thinking about anything, and certainly unaware that they have deviated from the main point of the meditation, which is to still all thought. However, this is a necessary part of the process and should not be seen as some kind of failure to meet with the principles of the meditation. For example, if the thoughts are concerned with aspects of the past in which the meditator feels as if they have wronged someone or embarrassed themselves, these thoughts will instigate an emotional response. This negative emotional response will be noted by the conscious self and you will then be able to stop that process in its tracks and return to the act of focusing on the mind.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 29px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
Once this game has gone on for long enough, and you find yourself getting better and better at it, the focus of the game will shift. At this point the mind is almost on the cusp of hypnogogic visions and you may begin to see images played out in front of you. These visions might be surprising or even terrifying, but again the purpose is to remain in control of your mental, physical and emotional states. When this is done you are showing your mind that you are not afraid of these visions, and that you are aware that they are just another aspect of your mind, like that of the ego, the physical and emotional bodies. When this happens the images will dissolve.</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are numerous similarities between the movies Fifth Element and Return to Oz. Obviously, the Fifth Element deals with the four elements of Fire, Water, Wind and Earth; plus a fifth, which is Love or Ether. The Land of Oz itself is divided up into five regions each one expressive of the colour of the five elements. This shows that the Wizard of Oz series is a Hermetic work in the tradition of the major European occult mystery schools. It is, therefore, no surprise that the Fifth Element quotes and borrows so much from it.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In Return to Oz, Dorothy finds a key, which fell from a shooting star. She uses the key to unlock a doorway in an apparently impenetrable stone wall, thereby escaping the clutches of the Wheelers (the minions of Mombi). </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There she uncovers a clockwork driven mechanical-man named Tik Tok. Tik Tok needs to be wound up with a giant key before going out to fight the Wheelers. The 12 Wheelers surround Tik Tok in a circle, denoting the division of a day into 12 hours, a year into 12 months and an Age into 12 signs of the Zodiac (each lasting 1,265 years). Tik Tok puts his arms out and begins to spin round like the hands of a clock, knocking away each of the 12 ages in turn.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The same sequence of events is reiterated in the Fifth Element. This time mechanical men descend from outer-space in a shooting star and enter into a stone pyramid. One of the spacemen uses a metal key to unlock a stone wall, revealing a secret chamber. Inside the chamber is a statue. The face of the statue looks very similar to those of the Wheelers and points to the sky in much the same way. Its serves its purpose as a weapon that can halt the advance of the Dark One and bring about an age of Light and Love.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In Fulcanelli's </span><i style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Mysteries of the Cathedrals</i><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, the pyramid at Giza is described as being an engine that drives the evolution of mankind. So, Tik Tok and the statue are describing some kind of device that is hidden in the Great Pyramid and is capable of raising humanity to a level of physical and mental maturity needed to face the difficult times ahead. Tik Tok's obvious connection to the passage and action of time, means that he is representative of</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> the Egyptian concept of Zept Tepi (the First Time), which signifies a return to the Golden Age.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The key to the pyramid and therefore the elements is to be found in the structure of the Land of Oz.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Times;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Map to the Land of Oz, shows the Emerald City in the centre. This is where the Wizard resides. The other four lands each represent one of the four elements. The four sides of the Great Pyramid at Giza</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> are aligned with the Cardinal Directions and therefore, from a Hermetic point of view, the 4 elements. When looked at from above it is clear that the missing capstone represents the Emerald City or the Wizard. The symbol of the missing capstone is today a symbol of fear and paranoia in the face of the perceived threat of the so-called Illuminati. In fact, the missing capstone stands for the Fifth Element; love, spirit, divinity, or the ether.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
When Dorothy and her friends are forced to leave the Land of Oz they must board a strange winged moose. This is similar to the Pegasus of Greek mythology, but in this instance it is called the Pegamoose. Traditionally the constellation Pegasus is associated with a gateway through which it is possible to leave the Earthly and travel to the Heavens. Dorothy uses the Pegamoose to traverse the Impassible Desert and reach Nome Mountain. Interestingly, Nome Mountain has two peaks; making it symbolically equivalent to the Mountains of Mars (or Janus).<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
There is evidence that suggests that there are pyramids and such on the surface of Mars, left behind by an ancient civilization. Unlike the pyramids on earth, which are aligned to the cardinal points and represent the four elements, the so-called pyramid on Mars has 5 sides. This gives us the correspondence;<br />

I have a new blog up and running all about my theories on Quantum Physics, Relatvity (both Special and General), Hyperdimensional physics etc. The site is mostly speculative and it mixes in some mystical and religious ideas as well, for good measure. While this may not be in keeping with modern cosmological thinking, it does make for more interesting read, I think. Check it out at;<br />

In the children's book<i> The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</i> by Frank L. Baum, the reader is introduced to a wonderful new world, as seen through the eyes of a little girl named Dorothy, and her dog Toto. Together with her friends the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion and Scarecrow, Dorothy sets off to see the Wizard of Oz, in the hopes that he can restore her, and Toto too, to her place of origin, Kansas. When Dorothy arrives in the Land of Oz she encounters a land in strife, where political borders are clearly defined and despotic witches oppress the people through fear and magical persuasion.<br />

<br />
Judging by the map (compiled by the eminent Prof. Wogglebug T.E.) it appears that the Land of Oz is a squarish land, divided into 5 distinct kingdoms or countries. There is Gillikin Country in the North, Quadling Country in the South, Winkie Country in the East, Munchkin Country in the West, and finally there is the Emerald City, which takes a central position in the heart of Oz itself. Despite a lengthy search on the highly erudite and reputable Wikipedia website, I was unable to ascertain the intended meaning as to the choice of colours used to demarcate each region in Prof. Wogglebug's map.* Therefore, and in lieu of a credible/forth-coming explanation, I have decided to embark upon my own investigation into this matter, and more besides.<br />
<br />
You are, as ever, invited to join me.<br />
<br />
In <i>The Secret History of the World</i> (by Johnathan Black) it is speculated that the identity of Dorothy's companions; the Tin Man, Scarecrow and Lion, serves to represent the <i>mineral</i>, <i>vegetable</i> and <i>animal</i> kingdoms respectively. It was suggested this was done in order to reference the belief systems of the Theosophical Society, of which Baum was himself a member. In light of this information, I think it likely that the composition of Oz was informed by the Hermetic and Esoteric Traditions outlined in Madame Blavatski's Theosophical Society and not, as some have it, in the Christian methodologies, as outlined in the Bible.<br />
<br />
An important aspect of the Hermetic (therefore; magical) tradition is the correlations made between the four elements; fire, water, earth and air, and the cardinal points of the compass; north, south, east and west. Although the attribution of each element to their respective direction necessarily varies from one tradition to another, and even one individual to another, the conservative approach still applies in general;<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtzTVSJ4KjGtajAGA5HNZ16Obk_v-HDx8LrYMsgXBWfDtoUCBdUgRYc_Aer4vqS5qe9utooqWpyNBFuNi__lnom2xtBB3DOrgSLTIvOrxLQmxjziSiLlvnu7Wja8blmPa_P3yZe1bJX2-3/s1600/elementdirection.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtzTVSJ4KjGtajAGA5HNZ16Obk_v-HDx8LrYMsgXBWfDtoUCBdUgRYc_Aer4vqS5qe9utooqWpyNBFuNi__lnom2xtBB3DOrgSLTIvOrxLQmxjziSiLlvnu7Wja8blmPa_P3yZe1bJX2-3/s1600/elementdirection.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Each of the four elements also has its representative colors, as used by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, whose tradition was itself derived from the Enochian Tradition of Sir John Dee. Subjugating the cardinal points, gives us;<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmo3nXDNBs3_va8VriyRsqjIoCV7IjcOh16W14P9kUlJIrF0WZBpSfIxCw3UF_kUaIT9e08_qVet4RkkBgk1dIQnKmnerAZVPzQVscNpZ__5NMyQ9Cm-RWEhnBn_qJ8c-nCkV94X-DXohM/s1600/colordirections.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmo3nXDNBs3_va8VriyRsqjIoCV7IjcOh16W14P9kUlJIrF0WZBpSfIxCw3UF_kUaIT9e08_qVet4RkkBgk1dIQnKmnerAZVPzQVscNpZ__5NMyQ9Cm-RWEhnBn_qJ8c-nCkV94X-DXohM/s1600/colordirections.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
It is clear from this that Baum's intention was to convey esoteric knowledge, and he did so in a very surprising and clever way.<br />
<br />
The four cardinal points, along with their respective colours and elements provide the basis of nearly every ritual known to Hermeticism. In the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram (LBRP); for example, the new initiate is asked to make the sign of the pentagram in the air before him/her, in a very specific manner. He/she is to do this for each of the cardinal directions (also known as Watchtowers), whilst intoning the appropriate elemental name. By doing so the magician (or wizard) is thought to be exercising a level of control over the elements, which may be useful to his/her practice later on. In terms of the Land of Oz, the emblem of the pentagram can clearly be seen depicted on the flag of Oz, in green. The reason for this is that the wizard or magician who is enacting the ritual is always thought to be situated at the centre of their own NSEW convergence, and thusly at the centre of the World. The colour green is also representative of the Heart Chakra. This is true of the Emerald City, which sits at the centre, or Heartland of Oz.<br />
<br />
<b><u>The Emerald Isle</u></b><br />
<br />
Historically Ireland has had a total of 5 provinces; Ulster, Munster, Leinster, Connaught and Meath. Following the Norman invasion, Meath was dissolved into the neighboring counties of Leinster and parts of Ulster.<br />
<br />
In its heyday, Meath would have been an important focal point for all the local chieftains and kings, featuring prominently in politics, rituals and folklore.<br />
<br />
So successful were the Normans in eradicating this nuance of Irish history that few people today are aware of the Fifth Kingdom ever having existed. The only readily available clue to the former existence of this lies in the Old Irish name for a 'county' <i>Cuige</i>. The word cuige literally means a fifth i.e. a fifth of the country.<br />
<br />
In the Oz Saga, the four cardinal points (or kingdoms) are each ruled by a witch of either good or ill repute. The Good Witch of the North (GWN) and the Good Witch of the South (GWS) each make up the North-South Axis. While, the Wicked Witch of the West (WWW) and the Wicked Witch of the East (WWE) make up the East-West axis. Based on this distinction it can be seen that the East-West axis is the Axis of Evil, while the North South axis is the Axis of Good.<br />
<br />
Remember that the WWW comes from Winkie country, which is the yellow country on the Eastern side of Prof. Wogglebug's map of Oz. This, you'll note, is confusing. Could it be that the eminent Prof. Wogglebug has made a mistake? Don't get your hopes up. The confusion arises from the fact that, in the Land of Oz, the Sun rises in the West and sets in the East; something to do with the planets retrograde orbit around its sun. So from our perspective, the Wicked Witch of the West is the correct moniker, because to us the sun sets in the West. Get it? I am not sure if I do either.<br />
<br />
Regardless, we can see that Winkie country is shaded yellow. This means that the WWW is an Air elemental. Recall that in the <i>Wizard of Oz</i> film the WWW is destroyed when Dorothy accidentally throws a bucket of water over her. This seems to suggest that only elements of opposite aspect have the ability to defeat witches of a specific elemental type. Compare this with the ruler of Munchkin land (blue) the watery Witch of the East. Although we do not see her directly, we infer that she was killed in connection with a hurricane when Dorothy's house falls on her, revealing the ruby slippers. So, in a sense, we can say that the WWE (a water elemental) was killed by her elementary opposite - air.<br />
<br />
In the Land of Oz it appears that;<br />
<br />
Water - destroys - Air<br />
Air - destroys - Water<br />
Earth - destroys - Fire<br />
Fire - destroys - Earth<br />
(The last two are sketchy because the GWN and the GWS are not known to fight each other.)<br />
<br />
Hurricanes are an atmospheric phenomenon so obviously the storm that carried Dorothy to Oz was created by the WWW, possibly with the intention of doing away with her sister, the WWE.<br />
<br />
Continuing with this line of reasoning, it appears that the four friends; Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin-man and Lion, can each occupy a cardinal position of their own;<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIzS769i6IQ4eZlLpIUtxtbhvQLQvszAiBxEtNanabmiH7h2Fck86bejrOMVe6GZn0KjS7NyF9MgiIlKeyn4qC582RRz5hXxSIMNxS06nlYr-jprJYCOkGo_siKO2pE-T-fLiTNZIVxnOe/s1600/ozdirexion.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIzS769i6IQ4eZlLpIUtxtbhvQLQvszAiBxEtNanabmiH7h2Fck86bejrOMVe6GZn0KjS7NyF9MgiIlKeyn4qC582RRz5hXxSIMNxS06nlYr-jprJYCOkGo_siKO2pE-T-fLiTNZIVxnOe/s1600/ozdirexion.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Dorothy with her dark brown hair and farming background is clearly an Earthy kind of girl. Likewise the colour of the Lion's fur and its loud roar make it ideal as an Air elemental. The reasons for Scarecrow and Tin-man seem to differ, however. Recall that the Tin-man rusts in the presence of water, and that the only thing that can kill Scarecrow (as per the story) is fire.<br />
<br />
Returning to the concept of the East-West plane being an Axis of Evil and the North-South plane being an Axis of Good for a moment, we can see that the horizontal plane/axis symbolizes death (lying down), where as the vertical plane is associated with up-rightness, honour, and things of that nature. Now where have we heard the terms "Axis of Evil", "North" and "South", "Towers" (as in the Watchtowers NSEW) before. That's right; 9/11 2001.<br />
<br />
If the N-S Watchtowers are meant to stand for justice, truth, up-rightness and all that is good in society, then doesn't that mean that an attack on these two institutions is also a symbolic attack on all that is good and honest within society? You betcha. Was it the intention of the elite to build the Twin Towers just so that they could destroy them and there by seek to limit the influence of the Axis of Good in our world so that they could push their agenda of tyranny and evil across the globe? That again is correct.<br />
<br />
In some sense, the Manhattan Island and the WTC complex - in particular - were constructed to emulate the Land of Oz. This information is already well known.<br />
<br />
It is often commented upon, how the whole "world watched the events of 9/11 unfold on their TV screens." This statement feeds back into the acronym WWE (We Watch Everything). This perhaps an indictment of the voyeuristic nature of our society. In the aftermath of the tragedy a burgeoning interest in 9/11 swept the internet to an almost disproportionate level. This in turn feeds back into the acronym WWW (World Wide Web). This is to show that the web of corporate media who seek to control the internet belongs to the Axis of Evil.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeaM1o7OeXsqIa0Kp882BP-UuEVLU9sbzleOcilpe3Inz3a3v3QKXZCEuVGR-o5BlTeOmYrV-nOeDhNWk09T1RAONxZZ0JJvuSkqMQ0b9KyXRsR8qyo6-7opZBit2R4bWmx3KMP7kyUU9T/s1600/gwndirex.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeaM1o7OeXsqIa0Kp882BP-UuEVLU9sbzleOcilpe3Inz3a3v3QKXZCEuVGR-o5BlTeOmYrV-nOeDhNWk09T1RAONxZZ0JJvuSkqMQ0b9KyXRsR8qyo6-7opZBit2R4bWmx3KMP7kyUU9T/s1600/gwndirex.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Numerological data of above graph is as follows;<br />
<br />
WWW/double-u, double-u,double-u = 2x2x2 = 8. If we continue this count around the graph in a clockwise motion, we get GWN = 9 and GWS = 11. This is again to show that the Axis of Good is referred to by the numbers 9/11 Furthermore, if we input the initials for the Wizard of Oz (WO) at the centre of the graph we get W+O, or WTO, the World Trade Organisation.<br />
<br />
Summary (based on earlier notes):<br />
<br />
The destruction of the North and South Towers of the WTC buildings was an attack on the N/S axis (the Axis of Glinda and the Good Witch of the North). This act was carried out symbolically by the Wicked Witch of the West (WWW) or by George W. Bush, who is also known simply as 'W'. As already stated, the island of Ireland is in some way related to the Land of Oz, with its 5-part divisions, and the Island of Manhattan, through the work of artist Matthew Barney. The links between New York and Oz are many and varied and can be found easily with a simple search on the Internet. But one of the simplest is the fact that OZ is equal to NY by substituting the order of the alphabet one place to the left (See Caeser cypher).<br />
<br />
The (Pigeon House) Poolbeg Power Station is Ireland's version of the Twin Towers. Its red and white markings, which was so paint to stop planes colliding with it, evoke the evoke the colors of the WWE stockings. Therefore, the Poolbeg Power Station equates to the WWW and WWE axis (the Axis of Evil) while the WTC towers were the Axis of Good.<br />
<br />
Should the Poolbeg station be destroyed to balance the destruction of the N-S towers? Probably.<br />
But, remember no-one can die in Oz. All we ever see of WWE is her and stockings, with the characteristic red/black and white stripes, and that is all we see in the Dublin Power Station also. The WWE herself is crushed by the Pigeon House (i.e. Dorothy's house). It should also be noted that the reason why the PPS is painted that way is to stop planes from flying into it. This is ironic when we consider what happened to the WTC 1 and 2.<br />

The Baphometh (or Bafomath*) was the God of the Knights Templars, a 12th Century order of Knights disbanded on grounds of heresy. The Bafomath communicated to the Templars in the form of a disembodied voice emanating from a dismembered head. Philip K Dick, the author of A Scanner Darkly, spoke of a giant metallic head floating in the sky and following his every move. It was this experience which led him to write Valis, the story about a computerised God that had infiltrated our reality in order to restore rationality. It seems to me that Bafomath and Valis are one and the same entity. Alternatively, Bafomath might be the demiurge of the BIS, Valis' sworn enemy; although the two are hard to separate.<br />
<br />
The Devil is often depicted as a horned-goat with wings and a human female body. In this drawing of Bafomath by Eliphas Levi we can see that the creature is a hermaphrodite, a blend of both male and female characteristics. On the Bafomath's right arm, which is raised and points to a white crescent moon, is written the word 'Solve'. On his left arm, which is lowered and points to a black crescent moon, is written the word "Coagula'. Together the words 'Solve et coagula' form the basis of the Hermetic principle of the Alchemists.<br />

<br />
In order for the Philosopher's Stone to be created the alchemist must first dissolve a specimen of 'Prima Mater' in a crucible. Once the impurities have been removed the mixture can be allowed to coagulate once more, thus completing the Great Work. This process of dissolution and reconstitution must happen numerous times before the product can be deemed ready.<br />
<br />
In terms of the human soul (for alchemy is often said to be as much or more about the distillation of the human spirit, as it is the making of gold from base metals) the concept of the Solve, or the universal solvent, is to break down our mental barriers and distinctions between 'us' and the world; so that we become 'One' with the Universe and its workings. When the human is returned to their former state, he/she is thus enlightened as to the nature of reality, the problems of social classes etc, etc. It is in this state that they must continue their crossing towards the further shore; the Promised Land of the Enlightened Buddhist Masters.<br />
<br />
The Salvia Bardo, which I have spoken about in other posts, is similarly a region of dissolution and reformation. Here there is little difference between you or your neighbor, or indeed the entire experience we speak of as being 'reality'. It is the end of dreams and reality, where basic notions such as 'up' or 'down' hold no bearing; the equalizer of the opposites. But with the end of duality comes the call for its preservation; coagulation. As in the case for the twin chimney stacks of Poolbeg Power Station in Dublin City.<br />
<br />
This need of ours to have an 'other' - that which is perceived as being separate from ourselves - was expressed in the request to preserve the now defunct Poolbeg Power Station from demolition. The twin, red and white striped chimney stacks have been an icon of Dublin, in times gone by, and a committee was formed to challenge Dublin City Council's motion to have them collapsed. This goes to show that while duality may have been vanquished, calls are made in favour of its preservation in order that life can continue in a somewhat normal fashion.<br />
<br />
The concept that a dilapidated power station on the East coast of the Emerald Isle could have any bearing on psyche of humanity as a whole may seem 'a tad bit' erroneous, but I assure that this power station has great symbolic meaning and import, on a variety of different levels. I will be discussing these in a later post; So stay tuned.<br />
<br />
<br />
* The actual spelling of the Baphometh was revealed by Aleister Crowley undoubtedly via numerology in the early 20th Century. The spelling 'Bafomath' is my own creation and is derived through the usage of anagrams, the meaning behind which evokes the universal solvent of the next piece.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For a long time, astronomers have known that the galaxy in which our planet - and solar system - resides, the Milky Way, is a spiral galaxy. It was assumed that the arms of this galaxy were curvilinear. However, research has shown that the Milky Way's spiral arms may, in fact, be bent at right angles, making the overall look and shape of the Galaxy more akin to that of a square.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.universetoday.com/75770/the-milky-way-might-be-square/">http://www.universetoday.com/75770/the-milky-way-might-be-square/</a></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xWHH7tkxbS0/TwO5YeTkY5I/AAAAAAAABSg/tXZm2jd-flQ/s1600/coca-colagalaxy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="312" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xWHH7tkxbS0/TwO5YeTkY5I/AAAAAAAABSg/tXZm2jd-flQ/s400/coca-colagalaxy.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In reality though, the actual appearance of the galaxy would be that of a swastika. The swastika is not a very popular symbol in the West. But outside of the West, this symbol carries a completely different meaning. And there is no doubt that the millions of avid Hindus, Buddhists and Taoists would be very happy to know that there sacred symbol - the Manji - is cymatically displayed in the shape of the galaxy itself. As the galaxy cart-wheels through the intergalactic space, it serves as a kind of beacon, or reminder of their entire philosophy of life.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If the arms of the Milky Way are bent at right-angles, then, I speculate that the galactic material must be contained within a cube/square-shape boundary. I further suggest that this boundary is some kind of electromagnetic force field. I noticed this occurrence while making a cup of tea in a particularly square-shaped mug. Upon stirring the tea, I watched as the resultant vortex formed distinct right angles spiraling into towards the centre. This immediately reminded me of the aforementioned discovery, and led me to suspect that the Galactic magnetic field (which essentially holds the entire galaxy together) must be, in some way square, like this cup.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While it is generally well-known that magnetic fields are not square but round, they do have internal features consistent with the geometry of a square. For instance, they have a straight line interior fanning out at near ninety degree angles to produce an almost barrel-shaped interior. Compare this to the horizontal cross-section of the magnetic plane, which Wikipedia assures me is completely spherical, and it is obvious that my theory stands or falls to the degree with which the galaxy rotates within either the vertical or horizontal magnetic plane. Luckily for me, it is known that the rotational plane of our galaxy is known to generally run along the vertical magnetic plane. I discovered this interesting bit of information in a study conducted by Bryan M Gaensler, entitled </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Morphological Studies of Extragalactic Supernova Remnants, which can be found here; </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Interestingly, this paper also discusses the phenomenon of "barrel"-shaped supernova remnants within our own galaxy,</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A recent study of "barrel"-shaped supernova remnants (SNRs) in our own Galaxy has shown that the symmetry axes of these SNRs line up with the Galactic Plane. This result indicates that the ambient Galactic magnetic field (known to generally run along the Plane) affects the evolution of these SNRs in some way.</span></blockquote>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Just how it might do this is unclear. Perhaps the extreme energy release of the SNR harmonizes it with the Galactic magnetic field, in much the same way that different particles and forces become unified at high-energies in the Theory of Supersymmetry, but this is mere conjecture.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To conclude, I think that the barrel-shaped magnetic field of the Milky Way causes the rotating arms of the Galaxy to become constrained, or to slow down, and thereby adopt the resonant structure of the field as a whole; albeit geometrically inverted.</span></div>C.N.O.http://www.blogger.com/profile/03144745727673871246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8662107699272027320.post-3724003092007697712012-01-03T16:47:00.000-08:002012-01-03T16:53:22.602-08:00REVISED BUDDHIST MANTRA<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">While I do not possess a degree in Economics, I do have a degree of sympathy for those of us affected by the Global Economic Downturn (GED). And while this may not qualify me to speak on economic issues, may I remind you that it was economists (and well as some notable others) who are chiefly to blame for the state of the financial system. But now is not the time to point fingers. Instead, we should examine ways in which we can salvage the world's economy, with the reputations of economists and leaders along with it.</span><br />

The traditional response to economic downturns is for governments to introduce new taxes and cuts in public spending. Rather than stimulating the economy to grow (which is what they really should be doing) their actions merely exasperate the situation by putting strain on the common man, who is already over-stretched. Throughout history, times of economic growth are known to be followed by periods of contraction. The reason governments exist, in the first place, is to covet wealth in times of plenty, so that they can use it to reinvigorate the economy in less fortunate times. Recent governments have admittedly failed to do this/ But why have they failed? The reason is simple; they were fooled into believing that the 'good times' would never end, <i>when we all know that they do</i>.</div>

In the 4-D Economy there exists a way to restore consumer confidence and recapitalise the banks, without entering into the unnecessary, and debilitating cycle of tax and cut-backs. I will summarize the main articles of the 4-D economic plan in just a moment, but for a more detailed overview I suggest you read the last post; 4-D Economics. At present there are 3-Dimensions to the world economy, these are; the Stock Market, the Futures or Derivatives Market and the commodities, on which the entire system is based. My proposal is to input all of the real-time information for each market into a powerful super-computer that could then perform a multiplication of these figures to produce an accurate 3-D picture of the entire economic wealth of the planet, at that moment. The method to achieve this is simply to multiply the combined value of the worlds commodities by the combined image value of the stock markets, and then multiply this by the combined mite of the derivatives or hedge funds market to create a model of the 3-D economy.</div>
<div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 17.0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
From that moment on, the fluctuating values of this system could be looked upon as a bank account that contains all of the world's wealth (animal, vegetable and mineral) multiplied to the power of three. Clearly this is a very large sum of money indeed. But only the products of this multiplication could be used for any real or practical purposes, as the initial funds are all tied up in various aspects of the economy. However, even if we were to just extract the interest of these holdings over a modest period of time, I am sure that we would have more than enough to shore-up the banking crisis.</div>

Recently economists have noted that governments may be undervaluing their economies by billions of dollars every year. How is this possible? Well, it appears that previous estimates failed to take into account the role that bats play in the control of insect populations. If it wasn't for these furry flying rodents the US economy would have to fork out billions in pesticides every year, which would gradually take its toll on the economy; crippling it.</div>
<div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 17.0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
If something as simply and natural as bats can be seen to contribute so much to the national coffers, then why not also include the continuous and all sustaining power of the sun into the equation? Granted it is a public good, and therefor, not to be sold or bartered. But, nevertheless, it generates countless billions of giga-wat energy, that would otherwise have to be generated by electrical means. Come to think of it, why not re-evaluate the oceans, without which the energy of the Sun would reduce the surface of the Earth to an unprofitable desert?</div>

Even more recently, scientists revealed their most accurate estimate for the number of living species on the planet to be 8,700,000. Remarkably, this is very close to the figure of 8,400,000 that is outlined in the Vedic teachings several thousand years earlier. Go figure.</div>

Anyhow, it seems that this information could help economists arrive at a better estimate for the potential economic value of all the species on earth (as crude as that sounds). This data along with all the Earth's mineral wealth could also be represented in our computer model, as assets to accrue yet more interest.<br />

Obviously, if there is going to be a new bank account that contains the 4-dimensional wealth of the entire planet, there needs to be a bank to service the account and possibly a trustee to take control of it. In light of some of the religious implications of this article, I suggest calling this bank the Vault of Heaven, after Genesis 1:20;</div>

You might be wondering, why should we go to such lengths to create wealth in this manner, when it is clear that we are just creating it out of thin air? If you are wondering this, then it is clear that you don't understand how the financial system works, as all money is created by bank-lords out of thin air. To learn more about how money is created I suggest you read this <a href="http://www.uhuh.com/unreal/moncur.htm">very informative article</a>.</div>

As I have said, I am not an economist, so it is very likely that what I have suggested is of absolutely no value whatsoever. However, I believe that the fundamental concept of the 4-D economy has value, and is the necessary ingredient meant to balance the fractured fabric of the current global economy. I believe that if economists were to look in detail into 4-D economic policies, they would see that there is an endless supply of wealth existing there, just waiting to be obtained. But since it is very unlikely that anyone is going to pay attention to what I have to say, I am going to say whatever I choose.</div>

1) If you think about it all money is 4-Dimensional. For example, if I were to put a 50 Euro note on a table and ask you to tell me exactly how much it was worth, you might point to the number on its face and say 50 Euro. However, depending how long that note has been in circulation for, it has been responsible for the purchase of an amount of goods well in excess of its stated value. Therefore, money is a self-renewing entity.</div>

<br /></div>

2) Money can be broken into smaller parts and still remain whole. (If you break a $20 bill into two fives and a 10 the original note is still undiminished).</div>
<div style="font: 14.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 17.0px;">

You could also say;</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">
I can't spend the money in my bank account, because if I spend it, it is no longer in my bank account.</div>

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The issue of the dimensionality of economy has taken something of a back-seat in recent years, due to economic crisis. I believe that this is a mistake, because the solution to the worlds problem lie in the resolution of the world's economic dimensionality. But what is the dimensionality of economics?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">At present there are three dimensions to the world economic system; the stock market, the futures market and the commodities themselves. Given that the collapse of the global financial markets was precipitated and exasperated by the Futures Market, it is clear that this tri-part system is unbalanced. To visualise what I mean, think of the current global economy as like Del Boy Trotter's Reliant Robin (a total disaster). What we need to do is to up grade our system. In other words, we need to go from this;</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Is this really Mission Impossible? Not if we approach the task from the 4th dimension, its not.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Most of what occurs on a day to day basis in economies happens in the 1-dimensional realm of the commodities market. This realm is one dimensional because it utilises real numbers only. Real numbers are the ordinary numbers (like 1,2,3...) that we use everyday, and extend in a left to right direction along the number line, and as such only have one dimension of freedom.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The addition of imaginary numbers and the complex plane, gives economists a second dimension, and therefore more freedom of movement.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">As for what the 3rd dimension of the global economy could be, one can only speculate. By this token, I believe that the 3rd economic dimension to be the Hedge Funds or Futures Markets, in which the worth of a commodity is no longer tied to its vertical trending in the stock markets, but rather to the 'sideways' or horizontal motion of the Futures market.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Now that we have discussed the 3 different dimensions of the Global Economy, you might be forgiven for thinking that we have also reached a kind of 3d space, that provides the markets with greater freedom. But, this is not so. To do this with any degree of satisfaction, we need to multiply the total value of the three markets, at any given time, by one another, like so;</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This number, which describes the total wealth production of the planet at any given instance (cubed), is potentially a very large number indeed. To take this quantity into the 4th dimension, all we need to do is take in account the factor of time (Time is Money)*. Quaternions, a forth dimensional algebra set, might be useful in this regard. Alternatively, we could just combine the constant stream of data by a process of addition, creating a vast store of wealth very quickly. Unfortunately, none of this wealth would be accessible to us, as it is either already being utilised in the market place or only exists as a value in the past. Therefore, all we can hope to do, is to envisage this information as like the Earth's bank statement and to begin to skim the interest off the top; which would be considerable, even at low estimates.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This money could then be used to recapitalise the banks and restore consumer confidence in the system, as a whole. This, or something very much like this, must be implemented if we are serious about getting a quick recovery going.</span></div>

55. People often give in to negative emotions too easily. When going about the affairs of the day, a thought might pop into your head that makes you feel depressed or angry. Don't give into these thoughts, be strict and put them in their place. So, you will not be upset for the rest of the day.</div>

56. We all know what it is like to feel angry or resentful towards people. But it is seldom that we find ourselves truly happy or over-joyed. The next time you are really happy take note of how it makes you feel, then think of how you feel normally, when you are neither happy nor sad, angry or frustrated. This is how you normally feel, it is a blessed state. Time to remain in this state at all times.</div>

57. In the Teaching of Buddha there are given examples of how opportunities of Enlightenment are all around us. One example of this is of a man burning incense. "He noticed that the fragrance was neither coming nor going; it neither appeared nor disappeared. This trifle incident lead him to Enlightenment." This teaching is rather obscure, and difficult to understand. I came to understand one of its meanings as I was dropping off to sleep one night. In the darkness of my room, I lay concentrating on my breath; the slight pressure on my nostrils as I inhaled, countered by the same slight pressure on exhale. In a flash, I realised there was no air involved in this transaction, merely a rhythmic pressure applied by some unseen digit of some unseen hand. Just as you could not say that a hand that pets a dog 'comes and goes,' as each stroke is the same as the next, so you cannot say that the breath comes and goes, because both inhale and exhale are exactly the same stimulus, occurring in the same area of the body, between two vast expanses of nothingness. From an epistemological point of view we have no evidence that what exists outside and inside our body is air, until it passes our lips. This problem is addressed by Morpheus in the Matrix when he says, "You think that is air you are breathing now?"</div>

63. Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden of Eden for eating from the Tree of Knowledge. But there was another tree that they were also forbidden to eat from that is often overlooked in discussions. It is the Tree of Life that is said to grant eternal life to anyone who eats from it. But while the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge is undoubtedly an apple, the Fruit of the Tree of Life is often found to be more ambiguous. From the paintings of Rene Magritte, and the writings of John David Morely, I can now reveal that the Tree of Life is, in fact, a pear tree.</div>

64. Many times in the Bible Jesus proclaims himself to be a tree, saying that his followers are branches on this tree, and from their labour they give forth fruits. If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. (John 15:6). We are the fruits of the Tree of Knowledge. This is why God forbade us eating from this tree; because if we do so, we eat of ourselves. Knowledge and self-knowledge lead to misery and pain, better to follow life and pay no heed to anything.</div>

67. On week days, the British newspaper <i>The Observer</i>, becomes <i>The Guardian</i>. In the poem Footprints in the Sand, a woman is walking along a beach with Jesus. The beach represents their life. Looking back, she notices that when times were hard in her life there was only one set of footprints in the sand. She asks Jesus, "Why did you leave me when I needed you most." To which he replies, "I did not leave you, for it was then that I carried you. It is in our times of need, our weak days, that the Lord also changes from Observer to Guardian.</div>

68. It goes without saying that the vibrations of a microphone membrane are informationally indistinguishable the sound which caused it to vibrate,in the first place. The same could be said of your primary senses, all of which are attuned to waveforms, and vibrate in response to the world around you. Therefore, you are the receiver and the signal itself. Everything in the world, all of the strange and familiar objects are part of you/the signal. This analogy can be used to find more about what happens to us after death. If a radio receiver is put out of action does this effect the transmission of the signal over a wider area? Of course not, and neither does the advent of your death disrupt the greater signal to which your consciousness belongs. This is why the mystics are correct when they say that no one ever really dies.</div>

Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey is a slow and masterful telling of man's ascent from primitive ape-man to space-faring astronaut, and eventually to cosmic being. The movie is unusual in that not a word is spoken for the first 25 mins, as the director instead focuses his attention on the grunts of the early human hominids and the glorious strings of Johann Strauss. It is no surprise then, that the movie should induce an almost meditative state in the viewer, as they wait between long bouts of quietude for any hint of action or dialogue. An important part of the practice of meditation is the ability to focus on one's breath. In 2001, the audience is subjected to the sound of Dave Bowman's breathing (and nothing else) for several minutes, as he ventures outside of the spacecraft to replace a faulty unit.<br />
<br />
If I am correct in my assertion that 2001 is an attempt to make a movie capable of putting its audience in a trance-like state, then presumably the story-line should reflect this.<br />
<br />
2001: A Space Odyssey is about a manned mission to the planet Jupiter that goes awry when the ship's on board computer starts killing of its crew members. As the sole surviving member of the ship, Bowman must re-enter the spaceship and deactivate the computer: HAL 9000. What follows is probably one of the most moving scenes in the entire film, in which Bowman removes each of Hal's memory cassettes one by one, effectively killing him. From a transcendental meditation point of view this is the equivalent to dismantling of the ego. Once Bowman has accomplished this unpleasant task he is free to go on his epic journey of self-discovery (through the monolith) and arrive safely at the centre of the Universe.<br />
<br />
From this perspective, Kubrick seems to be suggesting that without dismantling the ego - whose possessive nature is touted as being the cause of all mankind's wars and woes - humanity will never be able to progress to that transcendental state, which to quote Bowman himself is "full of stars". The defective nature of the ego is embodied in the concept of the thinking computer, which is well known to be incapable of processing two conflicting pieces of information at the same time. HAL developes his homicidal tendencies in response to just such a conflict arising between his programming, which tells him not to lie, and his orders, telling him to conceal the truth. Kubrick appears to be saying that in order for humanity to evolve and survive its war-like nature, mankind must get beyond the black and white thinking of rationality and morality towards a more dualistic state of being, and possibly a more open and inclusive society.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This change must occur on an individual and internal basis, as much as on the societal level, although it is still too early to predict if Kubrick was correct that this change would come in the 21 Century.<br />

For those amonst you who resist the idea of dismantling the ego, as it might imply a total character assassination, let me remind you that in the sequel 2010: A Space Odysssey, HAL is resurrected as a cosmic being to help Bowman in his role as ambassador of Earth. The ego, like the self, never really dies it just becomes transformed, and as it does so, it is said to dispense with its violent and dominating nature to assist in the total being.<br />
