The Ahyeh, Monologue 32
“The family comes first, and the family of The Spirit supersedes all.”
This is a message that Spirit has given many times in The Ahyeh. More than that, however, is the fact that Spirit gave that message in many other holy writings over the ages.
We are all, at the ultimate level of reality, children of God. Urianism teaches us that we have an immortal part, a spark, which we call the Spirit. This part of us is a little piece of God, what we call the Maion. This spark comes into the world and takes up residence in a vehicle of matter. This vehicle can be anything from a single celled microbe to the planet itself. Indeed, we are taught that all the planets and even our sun, have a spark or Maion within.
From the experience in matter, the spirit develops a soul, or personality. Marrying the soul to the spirit, creates a living soul. This is what we aim for when we do the Marriage of the Holy Spirit in the Ahyeh. This living soul is what we believe will be our immortal selves when we leave this world.
Having said this, our spirit family would ideally include all life forms. However, in practice, this is not the case. Many souls turn away from the family, turn away from Monotheos…God. In practice, those who seek a relationship with God and strive to follow God’s teachings, who seek to learn Gods will and align themselves with it, are the family of Spirit.
Those who look to matter, to the world, to lesser beings, to themselves….they are the lost members of the family. They are the disowned by their own hands and hearts. We try to reach and teach them. We strive to lead the way for them and wish only for them to come home to the family. Yet, our father, the first father, God, has bestowed freewill upon them.
If I was in God’s position, I would lament my lost children. I would call out to them always. Indeed, many holy writings tell us that God is indeed calling out to us, all the time.
I believe that the family of God is one of the ways we can know the will, mind, heart and voice of God. Those around us that seek God, who look to God….are often the people that God uses to speak to us, to help us, to love us.
Yet, even when we turn away from the family of Spirit, God will still be calling. Perhaps God will call through the words of the homeless person on the corner. Maybe it will be in the words of a song, or the dialogue of a movie. Bumper stickers, license plates, billboards….the entire world before us in fact, is something God can use to speak to us.
Are we listening? Do we know when the things in our life are from God? Its not that hard to discern. The voice that calls for compassion, charity, love, morality, justice, beauty, honesty…that voice is the voice of Spirit.
The voice that tells you to glorify yourself, hurt others, take, steal, hoard…etc…this voice is not the voice of Spirit.
Brother, I like your vivid contemplation on this subject, it makes much sense to me!
“Consciousness draws substance to all substance, minds toward minds, spirits toward spirits; and, indeed, undeveloped spirit and base matter are almost magnetically pulled together (giving life to matter).
Behold how man clusters together creating neighborhoods, villages, towns, and cities. Behold the lights of civilization at night, as seen from orbit. Behold the formation of star-clusters and galaxies, and the pull toward the center thereof.”night, as seen from orbit. Behold the formation of star-clusters and galaxies, and the pull toward the center thereof.
The Ahyeh.
Monologue 7: The Conscious Particle
I can think of several examples of this in my life. I have noticed it over and over.
Imagine driving down a lonely highway at a time and on a day when there should be no traffic. You see no one as you drive, except the only other person out that day….the one right behind you as you drive.
Imagine yourself in a grocery store late or early, nobody else in the building except the one other person that you happen to ram your cart into.
Imagine that you go out into nature, far out in nature, to a secluded spot far away from the hustle and bustle of the city….and when you investigate the sound coming from around the big rock next to your campsite … there is another campsite set up.
You park your car in an empty parking lot and when you return to your vehicle, there is a car parked right next to you despite the 40 other empty spots available.
You are up in the middle of the night, all is quiet, peaceful. Suddenly the neighbor drives by with his music blasting.
You go to a quiet café during the lull of the day. You enter and there are no other customers. Within minutes the place fills up.
I can go on. The fact is, consciousness is drawn to consciousness. The universe of matter we know of is made of consciousness. Gravity is the force of consciousness drawing consciousness to consciousness.
Anyway, just a thought.
“Every religion eventually splits into sects and denominations. It is inevitable that an individual teacher will believe that he or she knows better than everyone else, and has figured out the exact or pure interpretation, and will then lead others into division. This weakens the overall religious or mystical movement, and with more division comes ever-greater weakness.”
Monologue 37: Three Pillars & Seven Orders
I thought this passage, and the subsequent monologue, illustrates a thought that has been swimming around in my head for a while.
I don’t believe that Urianism is designed to stifle critical thinking or close people’s minds. In fact, I believe that the Seven Devotions and the Priestly Training in the Ahyeh, are things that encourage an open mind and critical thinking.
That being said, I would also like to qualify that statement with something that could be construed as contradictory but I don’t believe it is contradictory.
Too much of an open mind is a destructive thing. While all minds are made of consciousness, and God is the ultimate consciousness, too much “free thinking” leads to chaos. When a person at the level of humanity, embraces too many ideals and systems…they lose focus and become an agent of chaos. This can be seen in the rapidly shifting ideologies of the Left and their subsequent self-immolation as they turn on each other.
While Urianism encourages a more open mind than most religious systems, it does not encourage anyone to accept all ideologies.
Urianism provides us with Three Pillars and Seven Order in order to allow for the flexibility of open minds with differing perspectives and approaches to life and the Divine. While this framework is quite a bit more flexible than most systems…it is not completely open ended. Thus it can maintain a balance (balance is always key) between an completely open mind and a restricted mind.
Having said all this, I need to state that we all will have different approaches to our journey within Urianism. However, while we celebrate our differing approaches, it is vital that we remember to adhere to the core principals and ideas of our faith. Those things, the Seven Devotions, The Three Pillars, The Seven Orders, The Twenty Laws, must remain stable and undisputed. If we let those principles decay and fall…the faith dies and becomes just another fallen cult devoured by the Vanities.
God Bless
"Imagine a world where race and ethnicity have become irrelevant, and where all the races are merging into one race (homo-angelicum)."
The Ahyeh, Monologue 65
Just a brief thought today. I've been thinking about the current racial problems in my country and those around the world. It’s fair to say that I don't see a majority of what is happening in the world. With the iron clad control the Elites have over the media and our access to information, its impossible.
However, I do get some information, and I also have eyes and ears and observe what goes on around me.
While I don't pretend to understand what someone of another race faces in our society, I do see that many things are pushed in the media that are designed to either exclude and oppress a group, or make a group feel victimized.
One thing I am certain of is that the information we receive is carefully chosen and filtered in a way that is designed to foster certain ideas and deflate others.
A singular race...known as Humanity....or as The Ahyeh says, Homo-angelicum, would have nothing to fight about. We would be able to focus on things like space travel. But I don't think that the Elites...who are just puppets for the unseen spiritual powers that run the world...want a unified Humanity.
A unified Humanity would take away a large part of the Elite's wealth. It would reduce drama and infighting...thus depriving the aerial powers their much beloved Loosh.
Remember, that YOU are not racist. YOU are not sexist. YOU are not an oppressor. YOU are not a victim (unless you agree to it).
Remember that YOU are a Urian. A citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven. Homo-angelicum.
God Bless
The Seven Devotions
A guide to building relationships
Today I was given an insight from Spirit. My understanding of the Seven Devotions was enhanced.
The Seven Devotions are a guide to building a relationship with God that can be used in every level and every relationship in your life. In the context of our path, the Seven Devotions are a structure to build and enhance the relationship we have with God.
What many people don't understand about God is that God is a person, a being. We are told in ancient writings, that God created us in the image of God. This does not mean that God has an actual face, two arms, two eyes etc. It means that God is a person, a being that is conscious. A being that is conscious of being conscious. The truest name for God, outside of the name that is being eternally spoken is, I Am that I Am. In other words, "I exist and I know that I exist.
We use the daily devotions to build a relationship with this I Am.
The first devotion is Worship. Worship equals love. Not just the presence of love but the expression of love. When we worship God, we are expressing our deep and profound love for God. This love is a powerful and often transformative force in our lives. We are also expressing the will to bring God into our life. This is something we do on all levels of our lives. We love our family, we love our friends, we love our pets, we even love our toys. If you have the capacity to express love to your dog, it should not be difficult to understand that you can express that love to God. You can love God as a person, without having to conceptualize those ideas of God's unfathomable and infinite being. God is right here with you, and just like a spouse, a friend, a family member, is interested in the details of your life.
The second is Prayer. When we pray to God we are talking to God. Spirit has told us that outside of setting up an atmosphere and a mindset, there is little to be gained from rote prayer. You would not go up to your friend and recite a canned speach, bow and leave and expect to maintain your friendship. Why should God be different? God is a friend, a person. Talk to God the way you would your friend, your confidant. Tell God about your day, your worried and fears, your joys and triumphs. Share yourself and your life with God, just as you would another person.
Then there is Meditation. I don't mean staring at a point on the wall or endless chanting the Ohm. For us, meditation is not always about developing psychic abilities or having out of body experiences, though those are often a delightful byproduct of meditation. For us, its about listening. When you have a friend, you don't just talk at them and expect them to stay around. Your friend has something to say as well. God is listening to you, yes. But God is also talking to you. Listen. A relationship is a two way street. Sometimes you ask your friend for a favor and they say no. Sometimes God says no. But in order to know what God says, you have to learn to listen just as you listen to your friend, for God is your friend as well.
Study increases our knowledge of God. We use this in our daily relationships all of the time. We get to know things about our families, our friends, our spouses, even our pets. Information increases our knowledge and helps us understand the world and our relationships within it, better. To wallow in ignorance, as evidenced by our current social/political environment, is to be an easy tool for evil and destruction. However, remember that information, or knowledge is not the pinnacle of understanding, alone, it is the abyss, Daath.
Following therefore is Contemplation. This helps us build the skill of introspection. Taking information inside you and thinking about it. When you find that your friend likes butterscotch milkshakes, you start to wonder why. You think about how it must taste, where to find it, how to make it and where it came from. You do this to better understand your friend and hopefully enhance the relationship. This works with your relationship with God. You study the holy works and the actions of God, then you take that information inside you and seek to understand it so that you may build a stronger and deeper relationship with God.
Then we have Fellowship. This devotion is how we build a community. We form intersecting relationships that benefit each individual by providing continuity of the whole. We build a structure of support and mutual edification that benefits the individual while providing a structure. When we fellowship with God, we spend time with God and others that have a relationship with God. We bring God into our lives and relationships to form a structure of support that includes God and God's input and love.
Lastly and perhaps most importantly, we have Good Works. Good works allow us to be the hand of God in the world. If you examine your life carefully, you will find many incidents where some random person made a crucial difference in your life. God often works through synchronicity and seeming coincidence, using people as his hands and voice. When you do this devotion, you are allowing yourself to be used by God as a hand, mouth, heart etc. to impact another's life in a beneficial way. God does huge miracles, and God also attends to the most minute details of each life...numbering the hairs on our heads, in effect.
Think of these devotions in your worldly relationships and you see how easy it actually is to bring God in as well. Bring God into your life is the same as bringing a person into your life since God IS as persons. And like any relationship in life, the more you put into it, the more you get out of it.
So go and be a friend to God, so God can be a friend to you.
God Bless You
This is great article, brother!
After burrial of my father, I visited a gentleman whom I asked to speak on commemoration.
I haven' seen him for a long time, but he is still the same living saint. Living in relative poverty (by his own choice), living humble and simple life - repairing electronic devices free of charge, only to get an opportunity to speak about God. I have heard a funny story from a guy who was joking how he thought in himself, please just say a price so that I don't need to listen this preaching!
Well, yes, I came to him without advance notice, by surprise, and what have I found? The very same saint that I knew some 20 years ago, only older, but still working with his son in quiet atmosphere, his son humbly listening him, his wife humble and obedient...like living in some other times...living saints, here on Earth.
I was so ashamed, because I got sudden realization of how unworthy I am in company of these saints.
I brought some olive oil, olives, all kind of dried fruits and nuts, etc, because I knew they stopped eating any meat, not only pork.
There are some living saints walking on this Earth among us...
The Demons call us to selfishness
The Angels call us to selflessness
Nature calls us to survival/instinct
GOD calls us to fullness in truth and spirit
The Wicked One(s) brings us to destruction and darkness
The Righteous One(s) brings us into servitude and serenity
The Natural/Materialistic/Sensualistic brings us back again and again
The Spirit brings us unto itself - as immortal children and agents thereof
