Occult Biochemsitry

Today we’re going to be talking about esoteric biochemistry and how it relates to the Temple of Solomon. The Temple of Solomon is essentially the physical body. Soul of man, soul and moon. Soul and moon meaning the solar and lunar aspects of the consciousness coming together to produce individualities within these temples, within these vessels, within these shrouds that we wear and call human bodies.

The soul wears the human body as a costume or molding vessel in order to acquire form and attributes so it can exist in the astral plane with individuality. This is cause and effect. The physical world is a spiritual factory for individualized immortal souls in eternal progression.

Esoteric biochemistry comes into play when the astral influxes descend as we come from the causal subtle realms into the physical realm in a vortex spiral of matter. When we come into matter we become dense and preoccupied with the elements, with attraction and repulsion, with the sense of separateness.

Before we descended into the physical realm we were in the pleroma, the Garden of Eden, which is unified consciousness. We were essences without full realized individualities or preferences. We took a dive into the physical realm to experience the duality of light and dark, good and evil, right and wrong in order to understand what we are as opposed to what we are not.

Esoteric biochemistry shows that our thoughts have a direct reaction on chemical inputs. The subtle realm always has a causal effect on the physical realm. The astral plane is the cause of the physical plane. We descend from subtle realities into dense forms.

Study Neoplatonism or the teachings of the ancient esotericists and you will understand that everything that we see comes from “nothing.” But nothing here means no-thing, no perceived thing. That nothing is actually everything. It is hyperspace, the full intelligent database that holds all knowledge and all intelligence within itself. In and of itself it is knowledge.

This knowledge has to come down and take form through archetypes and ideas. It condenses in the universal mind into physical forms, ones and zeros, red shift and blue shift, light and dark, night and day. These polarities help the soul self-realize. We are placed in a cycle of attraction and repulsion, pain and pleasure, until we realize that the physical body is not the doer.

The physical body is driven by the tattvas, the elemental forces. In the Hindu Brahman tradition these are tamas, rajas, and sattva. Tamas is ignorant, stagnant, and lazy. Rajas is passionate and fiery. Sattva is goodness and bliss. The soul is under the barrage of these elemental forces.

Paracelsus taught that everything in the physical realm, externally and internally, operates under these elemental clashes. Air, fire, water, and earth are always in conflict, and they create whirlwinds and disturbances. This is seen outside in weather but also inside as our inner weather.

Sometimes we are emotional like water, sometimes fiery and impulsive, sometimes weighed down by the heaviness of earth. These elements are psycho-astral. We are not just speaking of physical fire or water or air, but of their mental and emotional counterparts. Mental air, emotional water, impulsive fire, grounding earth.

In Solomon’s temple, the body, astral impulses act through the nervous system. The nervous system reacts through the watery medium of hormones and chemicals. Secretions in the body are the water element because water carries the astral influx. Astral currents imprint magnetic impressions into the water of the body.

The Japanese studies of water show that water holds memory. Our body is largely water and blood. This is the Red Sea of scripture. The soul is baptized in this water and blood to gain self-awareness. The Bible is full of esoteric biochemistry.

George W. Carey, who wrote on esoteric chemistry and the sacred secretion, explains that everything begins in the garden of the mind. Thoughts must be watched carefully, just as Christ taught, because thoughts create the hormones and chemical influxes of the body.

Resentful, angry, lustful thoughts create toxic chemical secretions. Rage sends adrenal secretions into the blood, poisoning it. The blood must remain pure, and the minerals balanced. Esoteric biochemistry teaches that the mind must remain pure because all chemical reactions in the body start with thought.

This is why the Bible tells us to slay the Canaanites, which is symbolic of slaying negative thoughts and impulses, the animalistic urges, the turmoil that triggers adrenaline and anxiety.

When we observe the processes of the mind, we slow our reactions to the external world. We begin to see we are more than this realm of elements and biochemistry. Yet we must work with the elements and transmute them, distilling their subtle psychological aspects, so we can regain them and elevate into the astral plane with true awareness.
