The Spiral Path - Symbols Of Esoteric Knowledge

 


The Spiral Path:
Quoting from Symbols Of Esoteric Knowledge http://GospelCosmology.Ebionite.com#SymbolsOfEsotericKnowledge
What is Esoteric Knowledge?

 

Why does Esoteric Knowledge exist?  Jesus taught that the Kingdom is within you -- beyond the vision of man's physical outward looking vision and organic understanding -- which means that the knowledge of the Inner Kingdom is Esoteric -- and can only be revealed to those who seek the Kingdom in the inner depths of their Mind and Consciousness.  From a New Covenant perspective, what the Essenes portrayed as the Teacher of Righteousness was an alias for the Mind of God that the Greeks portrayed as the Logos, and the Ebionites portrayed as the Son of God which they called the True Prophet that Jesus commanded his disciples and followers to seek out (see The One Teacher http://BrotherOfJesus.org#TheOneTeacher ) as their ONLY teacher.   The Essene Elders who understood all of what such men as Pythagoras, Bruno and Gurdjieff understood with respect to the Natural Laws, concealed much of their sacred knowledge within the allegory of the Books of Enoch.  And with the advent of the man Jesus who fulfilled the Laws within his own mind and being (see The Essene Foundation Of Judaism And Christianity @ http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com#EsseneFoundation ), this body of esoteric self-knowledge was transferred into the Original Gospels (see http://OriginalGospel.Ebionite.com ).  The Essenes were portrayed as a people who perpetually studied the scriptures -- and they did this because they understood the embedded power of the symbols and catalysts that possess the power to transform, expand and deepen the organic consciousness of man beyond organic human limitations.   Why would they perpetually study the same scriptures?  Because as their comprehension increased through the process of mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening, more and more knowledge was revealed to them through the working of the catalysts embedded in the scriptures.  The Encyclopedia Britannica quotes Philo of Alexandria with respect to the Essenes and Therapute: "They read the Holy Scriptures, from which they sought wisdom by treating them as allegorical, believing that the words of the literal text were symbols of something hidden” And the spiritual meaning of the scriptures can only be revealed through the interaction of the Linear/male and Intuitive/female Spheres of Mind (see The Trinity - Divine Pattern - Linear vs Intuitive Development Of The Mind http://TreeOfLife.Nazirene.org/#Trinity ). 

In order to create scriptures that was appropriate for the common people who had never begun the process of mental transformation, the authors of the scriptures re-engineered the common beliefs of the people -- many of which beliefs can rightly be portrayed as being founded upon myth or folklore.  But what is myth and folklore?  In many instances it is comprised of non-physical supernatural realities that can only be envisioned Intuitively through Imagination in a reality beyond man's physical understanding of life.   And when these supernatural realities beyond physical limitations are understood as allegorical accounts of Higher Mind that can be brought about in the Consciousness of the Enlightened person who has achieved  Wholeness, then what is figuratively portrayed as myth and folklore becomes a higher reality that must be achieved.  Jesus said: "Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I am doing. He will do even greater things than these" (John 14:12).  Why can't Christians fulfill this Gospel promise?  Because they fail to apply the gospels as the Key of Knowledge, and they fail to perform the necessary works and miracles within their own mind and being as they become resurrected into the Inner Kingdom. Having failed to fulfill the Gospel, they neither are sincere believers or worthy of the Lord as stated in the words: “And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it” (Matt 10:38-39). Having failed to fulfill the works and miracles within them, they are complacent and therefore not sincere believers.  

The final product of re-engineered myths and folklore contained a series of symbols and catalysts that connected their normal organic human consciousness with a higher level of consciousness that exists within all of mankind, and ultimately an Inner Source of Knowledge and Truth that exceeds all the cumulative knowledge of mankind throughout all the ages that mankind has walked the face of the earth.  Thus, we have the paradoxical foundational paradigms: Is the mind of an infant empty and in need of being taught the wisdom of man?  Or does the infant possess an inner Source of Knowledge that is Superior to the wisdom of this world?  The infant empty-mind foundational paradigm is representative of the Old Covenant -- and the infant full foundational paradigm is the New Covenant.  Thus, in the re-engineered versions of scripture, what we are presented with is the basis of the infant-full mindset.  

When you teach in the traditional manner, you disseminate information to the Linear spheres of mind in order to instruct them through what has been portrayed as rote-programming.  This is defined as "The process of learning or committing something to memory through mechanical repetition, usually by hearing and repeating aloud, often without full attention to comprehension or thought for the meaning."  The problem with this type of traditional learning and instruction is seen in the fact that, you can't expand normal human consciousness beyond organic human limitations through traditional Linear (rote) programming.   Why?  What we fail to understand is the fact that the framework of the scriptures is built upon an infant full-mind foundation -- which equates all wisdom and knowledge of this world as being at best incomplete, with most of it portrayed as fool's-gold -- and like fool's gold, the wisdom and knowledge of this world presents a superficial resemblance to actual knowledge.   Therefore, the reality of the scriptures is in the fact that they were designed to overcome the limitations of linear (rote) learning and instruction by providing the person a path to acquire to genuine knowledge and truth.   To the degree that what is portrayed as scriptural writings were intentionally designed to inhibit traditional Linear (rote) learning -- and blocks were inserted into the literal text that forced the reader/student to look beyond the linear interpretation of the written text.  And while it is true that the common person does not readily understand this reality of the scriptures, that does not mean that their ignorance will negate the process of inner development.  Which means that if you are intelligent enough to question the validity of the literal text, the question then becomes whether you possess the intuitive insight to seek the deeper meaning?   And when the purpose and objectives of the scriptures are truly understood, it is this development of the Intuitive spheres of mind that is the primary objective of the sacred writings.  

In the same way that elementary students cannot comprehend advanced mathematics, in order to create scriptures that were appropriate for the common people who had never begun the process of mental development and transformation beyond organic human comprehension, the authors of the scriptures re-engineered the common beliefs of the people -- many of which beliefs can rightly be portrayed as being founded upon myth or folklore.   Why?  If you attempted to teach a group of people truths that were new, contrary to, or in conflict with their beliefs they already hold, they would either (1) immediately reject what was being presented to them; and/or (2) Linear rote programming of new material would fail to develop the Intuitive spheres of mind and bring about the connection to the Inner Source of Higher Knowledge that ALREADY exists within each of us.   Therefore, it is imperative to begin the development process by presenting a foundational environment that the people can embrace and begin the process of mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening.

Development beyond the natural limits of organic human consciousness, requires a balance and union of opposites within the mind of the person -- i.e., Linear and Intuitive, earthly and heavenly, inner and outer -- as expressed in the statement in the Gospel of Thomas as to when the Kingdom would come within the mind of the INDIVIDUAL seeker: "Jesus said to them, When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female female; ...then will you enter the kingdom."  Therefore, in order to bring about the mental-expansion and spiritual-deepening of the mind of the person beyond organic human limitations, it is imperative to work within the framework of that person's existing beliefs.  And from an infant mind-full perspective, it is this working within the person's existing framework of mind that creates the final product of re-engineered myths and folklore containing a series of symbols and catalysts that connects their normal organic consciousness with both a higher level of consciousness that exists within all of mankind, and ultimately connects the person to an Inner Source of Knowledge and Truth that exceeds all the cumulative knowledge of mankind throughout all the ages that mankind has walked the face of the earth (see The One Teacher http://BrotherOfJesus.org#TheOneTeacher ). 

Unless the interaction of opposites -- i.e., male/linear with female/intuitive, upper heavenly with lower earthly and inner and outer is brought about -- it will remain impossible to evolve the mind of the person beyond what can be portrayed as organic human consciousness (see Animal-Soul http://AnInconvenientTruth.org#animal ).  Teaching the person new information, is little more than traditional linear rote programming that further alienates them from their Inner Source of Mind and Being.   In order to evolve the mind of the person beyond the limits of organic human consciousness, you must work within the framework of their existing beliefs and foundational mindset -- re-engineering their existing beliefs with symbols and catalysts that Intuitively connect the Inner and the Outer. 

While the people accepted and embraced the writings because on the surface they appeared to confirm and support their beliefs which their culture has previously embraced, the changes made in the re-engineering process opened the door to a depth of mind and spirit that is not at all understood by those who see only the surface of the text.  And this reality is expressed by the Jewish mystic in the Zohar where it states: “The narratives of the doctrine are its cloak. The simple look only on the garment, that is upon the narrative of the doctrine; more they know not.  The instructed, however, see not merely the cloak, but what the cloak covers”.   The Jewish mystic who spends his life seeking the inner meaning of the written word that the natural mind of man is incapable of seeing, has warned: "Thus the tales related in the Torah are simply her outer garments, and woe to the man who regards that outer garb as the Torah itself, for such a man will be deprived of portion in the next world..."
