The Logos

Theology of the Logos – Part 1: The Being of the Logos – Apostolos Makrakis

The prime creator is both one and the many! The logos manifest as the whole in the multiplicity. This is why Elohim is Plural for male and female gods and goddesses, and the hindu pantheon is so versatile. This is monotheistic polytheism at its finest.

We are all voices of the one. The father is the stillness then the first motion produces a vibration, a wave which is the mother or eve. This creates a sine wave and that sine wave is what allows us to experience this reality here and now. As we our now children of the light we are part of the many but the one is within us. Jesus said He and the father are one The father in me and I in you. It is talking about the layers of the soul the garments.

We all come from the same cause, we are the effects of the one cause and therefore we have similar archetypal patterns and experience in life throughout the ages. This Is why we find so much in common with other people aside from certain variations. Yes, we all have our very own separate individuality but we also have a part of us that is fundamentally the same as everyone else. God appears as many different forms and many different names in many different cultures and provides many different customs, this is all fine. The universal mind is always working and providing,it is the great spirit supreme The Logos in connected with Kether Chokmah and BInah of the Tree of LIfe. KEther manifest as the Ancient of Days. He is said to be an ancient man with white hair, thousand of locks, and a beard. Eyes that never close and is always watching over the entire creation. The description is anagogical and if we know that everything below is like that above then we can take the microcosm old man we have here on earth and make is bigger and eternal and huge and place him in the transcendental plane so we can get some experience or insight of the benefic Ancient of Days the eternal being that never was born and never dies, who never sleeps and always watches.

The Eternal Mind

We are told all is mind in the hermetic philosophy. Walter Russel said there is one Mind and we are expansions of this one mind. Intelligence permeates everything. We are active partakers in this unity and therefore we are the hands that manifest that intelligent will here in the physical realm. In a sense, we are all mediums for invisible forces. These invisible forces are the archetypes that make up the realm of ideas. The Neo-Platonists taught emanationism. Emanation, from the Latin, emanate meaning “to flow from” or “to pour forth or out of”, is the mode by which all things are derived from the first reality, or principle.

Our minds are expansions of these archetypes and create universal patterns and functions that drive us… The collective archetypes are distributed and give qualities according to the 7 planets and the 12 signs of the zodiac. Our minds are instruments of our spirit souls, (individualized conscious entities). We as entities bond to a mind which is formed from these pre-existing archetypes, and we are conditioned into this realm we call earth with a collective of other mind entities that are also collectively holding the realm together.

Since our minds and creative faculties are all connected and powered by the same sources, ideas trickle down and crystallize in the material realm of fixed forms. So what connection does this have with the stories we tell and pass down such as theatre plays and dramas (Rama) art, songs, poetry, etc? The truth is they are all the final product of all of the creative ideas, thoughts, and archetypes that finally through the madman’s hand and divinely inspired mind, paints paint the picture that was once invisible and creates a form. It is said that Chopin the great musician penned man’s soul in his music. We as humans manifest the unmanifested. The unmanifested is already a perfect idea. So the music is already there, we have to bring it down through inspiration.

All of these works of art contain common themes such as the journey of the hero. The journey of the hero is the same journey the sun takes every year and every day. The sun is born and then dimmed by winter, the hero faces an adversary and loses something, then the hero goes off to learn and prepare to conquer the darkness, once he is ready he slays the darkness, and light returns. This is the path of the sun through the zodiac. We create stories that reflect universal archetypes. It is in our nature to do this. We are fractals of the one mind hence we think alike.

These stories from ancient scriptures are all heroic tales as well as more modern-day works of art such as anime. Animes such as Naruto or Dragon BallBall Z, or video games like Zelda all have deep esoteric symbolic meaning in them. This is what makes them the most prized works of art in our generation. Did the author of Little Red Riding Hood consciously know he was writing about the sun, and the journey of the soul when he added certain elements in the story which are symbolic representations of seasons and changing of the day into night? It matters little, whether we are conscious of the properties and functions or not the output is still the same. If you are conscious you could go to lengths to add more descriptive symbolism however it comes out naturally though through the unconscious archetypes. This is why all stories, dramas, poems, and love songs follow the same journey. In life we live out a rhythm, we have ups and downs, we work hard and see results only to be defeated, we then build ourselves back up and reach a point higher than what we had attained before. A great master once said an is always followed by a decent descent. When we are down we prepare for our highest pint of victory. This is the common message in hero stories because it is the story of the soul and its triumph over circumstances.

What circumstances will your soul triumph today?

Raising Kundalini

To do this, we need to use our willpower to dominate our 4 lower elements. This is how spirit dominates matter. During our day-to-day lives we keep this flame in check we can transmute this instinctual feeling we get every day into bliss, awareness, and consciousness! We would be surprised about how many things get in the way of this process, especially anything that has to do with overstimulation of the lower Chakras via overeating or exhausting the sexual energy. Humans in their upright natural state are consciousness generators constantly crystalizing spirit into soul into the spirit for a unified entity, a personal being! In this day and age, we are all used to not allowing this process to take place.

To allow the great spirit to bestow a new life upon us once again like we were in the beginning before the corruption! Before the split of our psyche! That is why everyone is practicing self-discipline and stoicism so put in the open today. Thousands of years ago only a select few were interested in these topics. Now more and more people are waking up obviously because it is the dawn of a new era! It is our time, we are ripe now for higher learning.

Around and Around We Go

 

     

The ancient Tibetans taught that if we spin clockwise we can propel the spinal fluids and allow them to rise thus opening and spinning the chakra wheels. We also spin our electromagnetic energy field around and get things in motion. We are generating kinetic energy maintained and produced through a motion under concentration and will.

     This comes to us naturally when we are kids, we love to spin around and around and become dizzy. With a well-balanced chakra system and developed concentration, you should develop the ability to spin without getting dizzy. This is accomplished by not moving your attention from the area of your horizon at the tip of the nose. The Sufi mystics accomplish this through the whirling dervish dances which are a form of prayer and meditation. Physically it is helping the system spin the chakras positively and get them out of the negative downward polarity.

    Practice: With arms extended in the shape of a T spin gently and go up to a comfortable speed, feel that as you spin the energy from the bottom of the spine is propelled upward towards the head, spin 21 times clockwise, stop and focus attention by bringing arms upward while slowly inhaling then bring hands into prayer position and lower to the chest as you exhale.

This is a great way to get your chakras spinning positively. As we live from day to day our chakra wheels tend to rotate downward or not at all. Spinning clockwise will get them to function properly again. The dizziness felt is correlated to the amount of imbalance. Attempt to stop spinning and regain your sense of balance using your willpower. It should feel as if the room is swaying and you are using your will to make it balance and become normal as you are now standing still.
