Purpose of Life

Everyone wants to know their purpose in life, and to find meaning in living. If you look deeply, you can find the way to discover your purpose, the find meaning in being alive. Yet, that only emerges in an exact way. Most people believe that if they follow their traditional morals, they will get everything they need in life and when they die they will go to heaven, and that this is the purpose of life. In Hinduism, this is believed to be the meaning of the four purusharthas, which people call the "four desires" or "four aims" of life. The purushartas are dharma, artha, kama, and moksha, and are commonly believed to mean "morals, wealth, pleasure, and entry to heaven." Yet when we study the actual terms and scriptures, we discover that their meaning is much deeper, and corresponds exactly with what was taught by Jesus, Buddha, Moses, and other great teachers. "…take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the ethnos [multitudes] seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of Theos, and his dikaiosynē [dharma]; and all these things shall be added unto you." —Matthew 6

Esoteric Christianity 06 Being Born Again

Explains the true meaning of "Being Born Again." Nicodemus answered and said to Him, "How can these things be?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things? Truly [ἀμήν, amen, אמן], Truly [ἀμήν, amen, אמן], I say to you, We speak what We know and testify [martyria: testify, martyr, עד od] what We have seen, and you do not receive [lambano, קבל kabal] Our witness [martyria: testify, martyr, עד od]. If I have told you earthly [ἐπίγειος, epigeios, הארץ erets] things and you do not believe [pistis: powerful comprehension, based on experience or witnessing], how will you believe [pistis] if I tell you heavenly [ἐπουράνιος, epouranios, שמים shamayim] things? John 3:9-12 This lecture goes into detail regarding the real meaning of pisits, which is usually translated as 'belief' but is actually 'faith.' Faith is not 'religious belief', or the courage to have blind belief, but an activity of your heart and mind, based upon conscious efforts and experience. The esoteric meaning of ἀμήν \ amen \ אמן is explained. Also explains the real meaning of Moses and why Jesus connects being born again with the Serpent of Brass that heals the people of Israel.

Cosmic Evolution 05 Four Creatures of Alchemy AUDIO

The symbolism in the Bible has definite and exact meanings, but to see them you need to know Kabbalah, Alchemy, and the Hebrew letters. The four creatures of Ezekiel represent specific forces within nature and within us, and are synthesized in the sphinx, the four gospels of the New Testament, and the four horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Find Your Master

Every spiritual seeker wants to find their true master, their guru, but the world is filled with "wolves in sheep's clothing." "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits." - Jesus In this lecture you will learn the essential practical conditions you need in order to find your true master. Best of all, it works, and it uses tools you already have. "You shall love the Kyrios your Theos with all your kardias, and with all your psyche, and with all your dianoia, and with all your ischys." —Mark 12:30

Esoteric Christianity 05 Psychological Cleansing of the Temple

Esoteric Christianity teaches that we must perform "psychological work" in order to achieve perfection (teleios). This lecture explains the meaning of Jesus driving the money changers and merchants out of the temple. "Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And He found in the temple those who sold oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money changers doing business. When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and poured out the changers' money and overturned the tables." - John 2:13-15 We must learn how to be vigilant in life, and go to "war" against the enemy, which is our own ego. We do this through contemplation and comprehension of our sins and the psychological defects which produced them. This lecture also explains the basis of Christian Meditation, with quotes from The Desert Fathers and The Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis.

Path of Initiation 16 Three Logoic Kingdoms

From the lecture transcription: This lecture relates with what Jesus said: "Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but my logoi (λόγοι words) shall not pass away." - Matthew 24: 35 When people read this, they assume that Jesus is talking about the words that he is speaking in that very moment. Of course, this does relate with his logoi; but, in Greek, "Logoi" is plural for "words." This relates to the three primary forces of creation: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, in Christianity; Kether-Chokmah-Binah in Kabbalah, etc. These are the three aspects of the dragon of wisdom, or the lions of fire, which relate to the three kabbalistic worlds, kingdoms or spaces of the Trinity above the fourth kabbalistic world, named Assiah, Malkuth, our physicality, in the Tree of Life. "The three spaces of the First Mystery are the regions of the Demiurge Creator." - The Pistis Sophia Unveiled by Samael Aun Weor "Demiurge" from Greek dēmiourgos (δημιουργός from 'ergon' builder; maker; creator of 'dēmos' people). Everything passes away, but not those three aspects, because they are eternal. They are within every single Monad that abides in the Absolute. The three spaces outside of the Absolute are represented in the three triangles of Tree of Life, namely, Atziluth, Briah and Yetzirah; these are the heavens of Genesis. The earth is Assiah, our physicality. From that point of view, we have to understand the words of Master Jesus, since the Master Aberamentho is a Paramarthasattya, an inhabitant of the Ain, the first aspect of the Ineffable, the Absolute.

What is the Soul?

In English, this word "soul" is used in a very unclear and vague way. It is from a root in Old English to indicate "the emotional or spiritual part of a person," that represents their true identity or nature and that assumably, continues after death. That is the assumption that people in the western world have about the soul, that it is who we truly are, and that the way we perceive our inner self now is our soul and that it continues in its current form after death. Yet, if you ask people to define the soul or give practical or experiential examples of their soul, no one can give you that, because this is all just theory and belief. It is difficult to find facts about the soul, and that is exactly our purpose here: to find the facts. In Judaism and the Christianity originally taught by Jesus, there are five souls, and three are of immediate importance to us: Neshamah נשמה Ruach רוח Nephesh נפש Hinduism and Buddhism talk about atman, jiva, buddha nature... in this lecture, we show you have to reconcile all these terms with practical facts. ""Let every psyche [nephesh] be guided by the higher exousia [power of choice; strength, conscience: neshamah and ruach]. For there is no exousia [power of choice; strength: conscience] but that which is given by God: the exousias [power of choice; strength] that be are arranged by God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the exousia [neshamah and ruach], resisteth the arrangement of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation." - Romans 13

Esoteric Christianity 04 Spiritual Marriage

In this lecture, the first miracle of Jesus, the transmutation of water into wine at the Wedding in Cana of Galilee, is explained. Spiritual Marriage is the real beginning of Esoteric Christianity. A Spiritual Marriage makes use of all the forces manifested between husband and wife for spiritual development. Love blossoms in the spiritual marriage. The esoteric meanings of Cana, Galilee, Gilgal, syneisaktism, and the Hebrew letters ג Gimel, ל Lamed, י Iod, ו Vav, ז Zayin, and ח Chet and also explained. Syneisaktism ('sin-ay-sak-tism', from Greek συνεισάκ "to add or bring together"): the practice of a chaste man and woman living together in a spiritual marriage. The term is most closely associated with early and medieval Christianity. Several related terms are used to label such communities, for example, the virgins subintroductae, the agapetae, and the gynaikes syneisaktoi. The practice was widely adopted in early Christianity: "Nor was syneisaktism a phenomenon peculiar to one locality; it can be found in Ireland, Syria, North Africa, and many other centers of Christianity." Clark, Elizabeth A., John Chrysostom and the Subintroductae, Church History, 46(1977), p. 173 "Of one thing we can be sure: there was hardly a church province in ancient Christianity in which spiritual marriages were unknown." Seboldt, Roland H. A. Spiritual Marriage In the Early Church: A Suggested Interpretation of 1 Cor. 7:36-38, part 2, Concordia Theological Monthly Volume: 30 Number: 3 in 1959, p. 176-189

Light and Consciousness, Five Souls of Kabbalah

The five types of souls in Kabbalah: Yechidah, Chaiah, Neshemah, Ruach, and Nephesh. "In your patience possess ye your souls." - Luke 21: 19 Yehidah יחידה, the Universal Soul, Ain Soph, Kether, Chokmah and Binah in Atziluth Chaiah חיה, the Soul World, the soul of Jah-Havah Elohim Binah in Briah Neshamah נשמה, the Spiritual Soul, Buddhi, Geburah, in Briah and Yetzirah Ruach Elohim רוח אלהים, the Soul of Elohim, Chesed, our Innermost, Atman, in Briah Nephesh נפש, the Animal Soul, Assiah, Yesod and Malkuth These five types of souls, Yehidah, Chaiah, Neshamah, Ruach and Nephesh are the five types of Consciousness, or better said, cognizance (from Latin cognoscere, the range of what our Consciousness can know or understand). These souls relate to the seven cosmoses, and the Sephiroth of the Tree of Life.

Esoteric Christianity 03 Foundations of the Christian Path

This lecture continues to discuss the archetypes of our soul, and how the false archetypes are known as our imperfections, "passions" or simply egos. It continues with a general outline of the Paths of Peter, Judas, and John, at the introductory level. The inner meaning of the name "John" is explained, as well as the meaning of the "servant" and "witness" of God, the olive trees, the candlesticks, in relationship with Zechariah 4: 11 – 14 and Revelation 11:1 – 4. How to work with the Keys of Heaven, Two Keys of Peter, is explained. In relation to the Old and New Testament, The Path to Christ can be understood, at an introductory level, in the following way Abraham descends from the City of Aur ("light"). The Spirit emerges from the uncreated light into the created light. Isaac is born. The Spiritual Soul unfolds from the Spirit. Jacob is born, and becomes Israel. The Human Soul unfolds from the Spiritual Soul. The Human Soul unfolds further into mind, emotion, vital/sexual energy, and body, and may choose to begin the Path. Joseph and Benjamin (and all the 12 Tribes of Israel) develop. The Human Soul begins to develop superior qualities. The Inner Temple is constructed. Moses & Aaron liberate the Israelites by overcoming the Pharaoh (psychological defects, attachments, passions, etc.). John baptizes Jesus in the River Jordan. Joshua crosses the River Jordan after the laying of hands by Moses. John/Moses dies to make way for resurrection in Jesus/Joshua. Jesus (Yeshuah, Joshua, "savior"), the Intimate Christ, is the descension of the Universal Christ into the initiate who has achieved the level of "John" or "Moses." After John, comes "Jesus" in the New Testament. After Moses, comes "Joshua" in the Old Testament, which is the same symbol.

Esoteric Christianity 02 Christ, the Universal Origin of Activity

He [Christ] was made man that we might be made God. – Saint Athanasius of Alexandria, De incarnatione verbi, sec. 54.3 (circa 318 AD) Esoteric Christianity is an inner path, a practical effort to discover our true nature within, which is the light of Christ. Through the perfection of the soul, the path toward telesis (perfection) and theosis (divine incarnation) is walked. We must see, acknowledge, and comprehend our errors, so that we may become one with the light. 1In the beginning [arché, origin] was the Word [Λόγος, Logos, primordial activity], and the Word [primordial activity] was with God [Θεὸς, Theos], and the Word [primordial activity] was God [Theos]. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light [the inner Christ] shineth in darkness; and the darkness [the ego, the "I"] comprehended it not. – John 1: 1 - 5 The very thing which is now called the Christian religion existed among the ancients also, nor was it wanting from the inception of the human race until the coming of Christ in the flesh, at which point the true religion which was already in existence began to be called Christian. – St. Augustine, Retractiones (427 AD) And when we say also that the Word, who is the first-birth of God, was produced without sexual union, and that He, Jesus Christ, our Teacher, was crucified and died, and rose again, and ascended into heaven, we propound nothing different from what you believe regarding those whom you esteem sons of Jupiter. – Justin Martyr, First Apology, ch. 21 (circa 155 AD)

Christ 06 The Name Yeshuah Elohim AUDIO

Explains what Christ truly is, as demonstrated in the Hebrew letters, the Tree of Life, and in the symbols of many religions. "...the name Jesus is derived from the Hebrew word Joshua יהושע. The name Joshua יהושע is formed by the word הושע‎ ("Hosea - to save") with the "addition" of י‎ ("Iod"); therefore meaning "Iod" is salvation". Iod is Kether, which is also Aleph אל-פ, the Iod in the פ Phe, the mouth (Phe פ - mouth) of אל (El) God. Iod is also in the middle of מים Mayim, the creative waters of Yesod, sex, the kingdom of Binah, the Holy Spirit. However, Alchemists and Kabbalists spell it differently: they spell that name Yeshuah יהשוה. Either way, Joshua or Yeshuah means savior. Alchemists and Kabbalists know that, in order to write the name Yeshuah, we simply have to place the letter Shin ש, which symbolizes fire, in the middle of Iod-Hei-Vav-Hei יהוה. יהוה is in many bibles translated as Jehovah. When we place the letter Shin ש in the middle of Iod-Hei-Vav-Hei יהוה, we no longer read Jehovah, but Yeshuah."

Esoteric Christianity 01 Introduction to Esoteric Christianity

"The mysteries of the faith are not to be divulged to all. But since this tradition is not published alone for him who perceives the magnificence of the word; it is requisite, therefore, to hide in a mystery the wisdom spoken, which the Son of God taught." — St. Clement of Alexandria, The Stromata, ch. 12 (circa 200 AD) We begin this course giving scriptural evidence for the hidden or esoteric doctrine of Christianity. In the past there were hidden meanings of the Old and New Testament concealed only for those initiated in to the esoteric doctrine of Christianity. Howbeit we speak wisdom [σοφία, sophia] among them that are perfect [τελείοις, teleios]: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery [μυστήριον, mustérion], even the hidden [ἀποκρύπτω, apokruptó] wisdom [σοφία, sophia], which God ordained before the world unto our glory… — 1 Corinthians 2:6-7 Mystery, μυστήριον (mustérion) is a secret, of which initiation is necessary; a mystery or secret doctrine; from mustés (one initiated). Today, the teachings are now open for all, and we will begin to unveil the mysteries of Christianity in this course.

Heroes on the Path of Love AUDIO

In our previous lecture "The Entire Path to Liberation" we outlined the awe-inspiring path to develop the full potential of the human being. Now, we will take a closer look at how to actually do it, by looking at some of the most radiant examples known to humankind: true heroes. The word hero is from Greek ἥρως, which is very closely related to the word ἔρως: Eros, the god of love. This little detail unveils the core meaning of every religion in the world, and illuminates our understanding of exactly what Christ is (also called Phanes, Avalokitesvara, Vishnu, Chenresig, etc). True heroes are those who enter the path of the bodhisattva, the direct path to the Absolute. They are known by the remarkable quality called bodhichitta: a mysterious word describing a quality of consciousness that can only be understood through direct experience. Such heroes include Jesus, Krishna, Joan of Arc, Moses, Buddha, Padmasambhava, and many more. "Whatever joy there is in this world All comes from desiring others to be happy, And whatever suffering there is in this world, All comes from desiring myself to be happy. But what need is there to say much more? The childish work for their own benefit, The Buddhas work for the benefit of others. Just look at the difference between them!"—Shantideva

The Entire Path to Liberation AUDIO

Many people believe that spiritual development happens just because of beliefs, or can even happen without our direct experience, but they could not be more wrong. Spiritual development is a lived experience created by conscious action. How can a deaf person compose music they cannot hear, or a tongueless person sing? Similarly, you cannot develop the consciousness without knowing that you are developing it. The authentic development of the consciousness means that one is conscious of what one is doing: it is a lived experience, confirmable by facts. If the consciousness is awakening, then one experiences being awakened, not only in the physical world but in the internal worlds. One stops dreaming. One can speak face to face with divinity. One can meditate on a question and get a factual, truthful answer. Suffering reduces, and virtues flourish, bringing genuine happiness and understanding. Thus, if one is not experiencing changes in the consciousness through confirmable facts, one is not awakening; instead, we are just dreaming about being awake. To truly awaken consciousness and become free of suffering, we need to know the precise science. All religions hint at the path to liberation from suffering, but none have taught the entire path openly. In this lecture, we outline all the stages of reaching our full potential, a process that is known internally as the Three Mountains. To understand the fully developed human being, we need to know about the twelve bodies and the worlds they correspond to, and the exact science to create and perfect them. This is accomplished by experiencing and fulfilling a precise series of events, including: Nine Initiations of Minor Mysteries The First Mountain: The Mountain of Initiation: the creation and perfection of the solar bodies The Second Mountain: The Mountain of Resurrection: the complete elimination of the causes of suffering The Third Mountain: The Mountain of Ascension: the entrance into the Absolute Those who are genuinely walking the path know from factual experience, because it is a conscious work. Thus, if you truly want to awaken consciousness and conquer suffering, you need to be firmly established in the facts of what you are experiencing. "...with the astral body [created in the First Mountain], we can move consciously and positively through the infinite space. One knows that one has an astral body when one can use it, as one knows that one has feet, because one can walk with them, or hands because one can use them; likewise, one knows that one has an astral body when one can travel with it. Having fabricated the astral body, one has not done everything. We will, indeed, have acquired immortality, yes, in the world of 24 laws, that is, in the astral world. People who have not acquired, who have not manufactured the astral body, are not immortal; at the time of their death their physical body becomes dust, and what continues in that astral world are the different elements that make up the "I", the myself, self-will, in other words, their subhuman, inhuman, infra-human, bestial elements. That these elements return later... it is true! People, unfortunately, do not know how they are born and how they die..." —Samael Aun Weor, Gnostic Cult to Agnostos Theos Get the accompanying pdf.

Machinery of the Soul 12 The End of the Machine

Now, it is indeed necessary to make a full differentiation between alaya-vijnana and sunyata [...] Alaya-vijnana is a purely psychological concept. Sunyata is undoubtedly an ontological concept [...] One thing is the frightening and terrible machinery of relativity, and another thing, absolutely different, is the Illuminating Void... - Samael Aun Weor, Dharmakaya (lecture) This advanced lecture clarifies the difference between the alaya-vijnana and the Illuminating Void. It also speaks about building the Tree of Life in the world of Yetzirah, and, its connection with Nirmanakaya and Resurrection. Discusses how the Four Worlds of Kabbalah are related to the Three Realms of Samsara along with the Illuminated Void. Also covers: Samatha (meditative concentration), the Eight Dhyanas in relationship to the Illuminating Void, the necessity of vipasyana (insight), and power of tantra in combination with samatha to achieve liberation, and discussion of the Prajnaparamita Sutra mantra: gate gate paragate parasamgate bodhi svaha!

Continuing the themes of The Region of Barbelo and King of Kings, this lecture details how Genesis, Hebrew, Kabbalah, and alchemy symbolically hide the practical method to transform the sexual force into spiritual liberation. "Lift up your eyes on high. Where? To the place whither all eyes are turned. There is the pathakh azeen, or opening of eyes. There you will recognize the mysterious Ancient One (מי־ברא אלה Mi Bara Eleh) 'who created these (archetypes)' and is the object of research. And who is he? It is מי Mi (who, the Holy Spirit) that is called the summit of the heavens above (in the Pineal Gland), for all things exist by his will. Because he is the object concealed and invisible after which all seek. Therefore is this mysterious being called Who (מי Mi), and beyond him search in vain.

Ragnarok: The Twilight of the Gods

An explanation of the Norse myth of Ragnarok. The origin of this saga was that Baldr the Good had a series of ominous dreams; he saw his life threatened. When he told the Aesir about his dreams, they took council and decided to seek a truce for Baldr, protecting him from all dangers. Frigg took oaths that Baldr would not be harmed by fire and water, iron and all kinds of metal, stones, the earth, trees, diseases, animals, birds, poisons, and snakes. When this was done and became known, Baldr and the Aesir took to amusing themselves by having Baldr stand in front of all the others at the assembly while some would shoot at him, some would strike blows, and some would hit him with stones. Whatever was done caused him no injury, and all thought this remarkable. But when Loki, son of Laufey, saw this, it angered him that Baldr was uninjured. After changing himself into the likeness of a woman, he went to Frigg at Fensalir. Frigg asked this woman if she knew what the Aesir were doing at the assembly. The woman replied that everyone was shooting at Baldr, yet he suffered no injury. Then Frigg said, "Neither weapons nor wood will harm Baldr. I have received oaths from all of them." Then the woman asked, "Have all things given their oath not to harm Baldr?" Frigg answered, "A shoot of wood grows to the west of Valhalla. It is called mistletoe, and it seemed too young for me to demand its oath." Immediately afterwards, the woman disappeared. Loki got hold of the mistletoe. He broke it off and went to the assembly. Hodr, because he was blind, stood at the edge of the circle of people. Loki spoke to him, asking: "Why aren't you shooting at Baldr?" Hodr replied, "Because I can't see where Baldr is, and also I have no weapon." Then Loki said, "You should be behaving like the others, honoring Baldr as they do. I will direct you to where he is standing. Shoot this twig at him." Hodr took the mistletoe and, following Loki's directions, shot at Baldr. The shot went right through Baldr, who fell to the ground dead. This misfortune was the worst that had been worked against the Gods and men. Baldr's death left the Gods speechless and so weak that they were unable to muster the strength to lift him up in their arms. They all looked at one another, and all were of a single mind against the one who had done the killing. But no one could take vengeance because the place was deeply revered as a sanctuary. When the Aesir first tried to speak, all they could do was weep, and no one could form words to tell the others of his grief. Odin suffered the most from this misfortune. This was because he understood most clearly how grievous was the loss, and that the death of Baldr was ruin for the Aesir.

Evolution of Sex 04 Sexual Revolution AUDIO

Since the arrival of the age of Aquarius in the 1960's, society has been changing dramatically, especially in regard to consciousness and sexuality. Yet, the hippies utopian dreams and ideals about free love and the rise of a just society never came to be. With the teachings studied in this lecture, you will understand the recent decades more clearly, you will see current events in a new light, and easily see for yourself what will happen next to our civilization. Are you prepared for the changes that are coming? "All of us need and feel the necessity to change, of becoming something different... Nonetheless, when one is truly revolutionary, one wants to be different, one wants to change fundamentally and to be transformed into something distinct, to be transformed into a superhuman, to make Nietzsche's doctrine a reality. This radical change is possible by means of sexual transmutation. "The sexual force placed us into the field of life, and you cannot deny it. We exist, live, because of the sexual energy of our father and mother. In the last synthesis, the root of our life is found in the copulation of a man and a woman. If the sexual force, the energy of sex, had the power to place us into the field of existence, obviously it is the only energy that has the power to transform us radically. "There are many ideologies and beliefs in the world, and everybody is free to believe whatever they wish to believe, but the only force that has the power to transform us is the energy that created us, the energy that placed us in the field of life. I am emphatically addressing the sexual force. So, to learn how to handle the marvelous energy of sex signifies to transform ourselves into lords of creation." —Samael Aun Weor, Sexology
