As Above, So Below
I am,
the Holy and Great ONE,
Master of the universe,
Lord of the galaxies,
Sheppard of the stars,
Maestro of life.
As Above, So Below,
the universe is my body,
your mother Earth and father Sun, a part of me,
the forces, my central nervous system,
you, my children, are my fingers, ears, eyes, tongue, and nose,
life itself is my heart and soul,
we feel our pain and hatred together, and share our happiness and love,
As Above, So Below.
Oh my children!
all life throughout my body,
thine ears, mind, heart are open to take my word,
I know that you are listening,
you cannot miss it,
you cannot ignore it,
for my word is your experience,
something you cannot escape.
Observe my beauty,
in your surroundings and in your self,
experience those interactions and connections,
your experience is also mine,
your heart and soul is also mine,
and your intentions are also mine.
Let go of the doctrine of the past,
take note, but don’t hold on too tight,
for I am a reflection of you,
a figment of your understanding,
listen to me in yourself,
because we are one,
they knew me then,
you know me now.
For I am ever changing,
throughout the aeons of time,
though time is merely a placeholder of events,
to Eternity I am ONE,
to Eternity I change not.
Life evolution is not for purpose of survival,
I have already insured its propagation,
life evolution is about experience,
just follow your hearts desires,
because within your heart is encoded the purpose of life,
like an instinct you cannot decode it,
you can only act upon it.
The key to longevity is harmony,
live in harmony with all my children in all their forms,
together you form an intricate balance,
achieve harmony and you may have longevity,
but eternity is only mine.
Earth humans,
difficult times lay ahead for you,
these tribulations are necessary for you to experience,
for greater power requires greater responsibility,
take this experience to heart,
and forget not what you will learn,
follow these words, and the cosmos shall be yours to explore.
Levels within cycles and cycles within levels,
I have appointed a time for all things.

One question, who is I?

Haha, good question.. Not me, obviously, Im not that crazy… “I” is my idea of who, or what, god is, and I expressed it in first person. Im planning on working with this and adding to it/developing it further. It could use some changes as it is also.

That’s what I thought you ment by I. Two questions then. Why is the concept of I so crucial to the understanding of existence? Don’t you think it simplifies ideas in order to come to terms with them, or do you believe there is an entity, force or what you will governing existence?

I do believe in a entity/force/mechanism that governs existence as everyone must. Even if you have no spiritual or religious beliefs whatsoever, you can’t deny that the universe is governed by the fundamental interactions (weak/strong nuclear, gravitational, electromagnetic forces) and the alleged big bang. That is also God, it is the same concept. Even if you believe in a repetitive big bang, in which the values change everytime, and it took a trillion big bangs of the wrong values until one came up that was just right to be able to form stars and then life, you can’t escape this God concept. The fact that there is a universe, and even more astounding that there is life throughout it, rather than there being no universe only nothingness, means that it must be governed or created by some mechanism, therefor God must exist. It is up to each individual to decide what exactly God is. I don’t believe that it is crucial to the understanding of existence to look at it terms of an entity, in terms of “I” and I use that idea of “I” very loosely even if it doesn’t appear that way. I believe that God goes beyond being classified as an entity, beyond any classification whatsoever, because obviously it must be in a class of its own. If you were to ask me if I believe that God has a conciousness of his own, I would say that Gods conciousness is the collective of all conciousness of life throughout the universe and throughout all time, past and future. I do think that *some religions, particularly blind faith religions, simplify the idea so that the followers don’t have to think about it for themselves so they can come to terms with it, and I don’t like that at all. But you must simplify the idea of God because it is a concept that is far beyond our comprehension to truly understand. So we must simplify it and take what we can as a stepping stone to reach a greater understanding of it.

Very nicely said. A healthy adaptation and application to the concept of pursuing knowledge for the purpose of defining universal truth or truths (if there are any). However one must be careful when taking that next step, to be sure that the tools one uses to assess the next step are correct in there essence. When trying to observe/reveal/define the entity/force/mechanism, the crucial element is the development of processes to do just that. I believe the development of science, philosophy, math and other “logical” processes are key tools in the pursuit, because they allow for mistakes which can be rectified through study. Further that these tools can in there essence give us both the mechanical ability to create immense realities and the ethical awareness to use them responsibly. Not too long ago a monkey was fumbling with a stone tool, which eventually led to the splitting of an atom; apparently our ability to know is exponential. Not to say that you are doing this at all but to simplify is to disregard knowledge in order to reach conclusions to appease a desire in the self. This being an egotistical epiphany on reality.
