Playing Mario 1 as a Vehicle of Enlightenment

A Player traversing levels 1-1 through 8-4 can be likened to a soul traversing a lifetime in the material realm. Thus a play through Super Mario 1 can be likened to a life lived. Super Mario 1, and all the Super Mario games as video games and in particular side scrollers allow for a parallel to our understanding of the occult, the great Not. We play Mario 1, a 2 dimensional world in a 3 dimensional reality, just as we live in a 3 dimensional reality but spiritually exist in a 4 (or more) dimensional one. The aesthetic look of the side scroller is also reminiscent of the 2-D hieroglyphics of the Egyptians and the stories engraved on Mesopotamian cylinder seals, thus this archaic looking 8 bit side scroller comes to take on an ancient quality even though it is only about 25 years old.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Exposed

The Ninja Turtles, plus Master Splinter adds up to 5 mutant (god-like) highly skilled martial warriors. The same number as the highly skilled martial warrior demi-god Pandavas brothers in the Indian epic the "Mahabharata". The Pandavas in the epic are group-married to a beautiful woman, their supernal bride named Draupadi who performs miracles via Krishna. April O'Neal can be likened to Draupadi of the Indian epic in her relationship with the Turtles, and has access to the levers of the mass media, as Draupadi has access at times to the levers of reality ie the Eye of the Great Wheel via Krishna.

Even if the relationship between the Turtles and April is not a sexual one, and we have no reason to think it is besides the kiss she gives the turtles in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II for the arcade and NES system, it is clear that April and Draupadi have similar roles in relation to the 5 mutants and 5 demi-gods. At the least, the Turtles plus Splinter share April as a collective female friend, as the Pandavas share Draupadi in their polyandrous marriage if even only the parallel applies on a platonic level.

On the importance of I Ching hexagram 50: Ting "The Caldron"

Hexagram number 50 of the I Ching, or Book of Changes: Ting, the Caldron

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
The Judgement for hexagram 50 in book one, the text of the I Ching reads:

"The Caldron. Supreme good fortune. Success."

The exposition of the Judgement of the Caldron reads:

"While the Well (hexagram 48) relates to the social foundation of our life, and this foundation is likened to the water that serves to nourish growing wood, the present hexagram refers to the cultural superstructure of society. Here it is the wood that serves as nourishment for the flame, the spirit. All that is visible must grow beyond itself, extend into the realm of the invisible. Thereby it recieves its true consecration and clarity and takes the firm root in the cosmic order.

"Here we see civilization as it reaches its culmination in religion. The ting serves in offering sacrifice to the divine. But the truly divine does not manifest itself apart from man. The supreme revelation of God appears in prophets and holy men. To venerate them is true veneration of God. The will of God, as revealed through them, should be accepted in humility; this brings inner enlightenment and true understanding to the world, and this leads to great good fortune and success."

We are all sparks of the divine flame, all knots in Indra's infinite and all inclusive Net. We are all manifestations of the Source, all cameras set up at different angles to maximize the possible perspective. In this time the batteries, the spiritual life, in our cameras are either loosing power, or in very bad cases leaking battery acid. Most of the hegemonic religions have lost touch with the spiritual reality in both the East and the West.

Look at the day and age we live in; there is the internet which connects all people and thoughts with access to it like neurons. Electricity powers cities, we take photographs of and send probes into the deepest reaches of space in hopes of witnessing the instant when Sophia first Concieved. We have even put humans on the Moon, the most mundane of the celestial objects. This is the first baby step of humanity's future and branching out into space exploration and civilization. We should not think of the 1969 trip to the moon as Columbus's trip to the new world. It is more like the first successful long sea voyage and return a few tribal people would make and return from. We also have the power to split the atom. This power can either destroy us or perpetuate us infinitely. The spiritual and religious hegemonies of the day due to their centuries of intermingling with the state in a less than benevolent manner support another MAD (mutually assured destruction) system - this time not based on economics as during the Cold War but "religion" (Basically the Secular/Judeo-Christian-Hindu "West" flanking a rising militant Islam spanning from Northwest Africa to Pakistan and China with a large sphere in the far East as an independent third party. The Indian section of the West is an independent sphere, but really by default on the side of the West due to its geographical rivalry with China and partition with Pakistan in 1947 during the Saturn/Pluto conjunction in Leo over Hindu/Islamic differences. Is this how we are going to choose to act out the truly divine which manifests in humanity? Through the lower urgers of destruction, through the raging chaotic vortex without the insight of the Balancing Eye?

a few words on gnostic christianity

If you have read extra-biblical Christian texts like "On the Origin of the World", "The Secret Book of John", "Pistis Sophia", or "The Reality of Rulers" you will find that events before Genesis are recalled. The texts speak of the very creation of God, or the ALL. The very Source of creation, the "Big Bang" as they say, the beginning of the Rotation i like to say. The creation of the ALL took place in an immaterial in which the only Being or Reality was the ALL. The First Perfect Emanation of Light, also referred to as the "Barbello" then asexually was spawned from the ALL. Think of the Barbello as a "holographic" or pure Light based blue print of the ALL, infinitely long and fundamentally without end, and most importantly immaterial; the Light of the immaterial.

The Barbello then itself, being the Perfect Essence of all creation split into the Aeons, different texts mention different numbers of first created Aeons. Such Aeons that were first formed from the immaterial Barbello were Life, Love, Honor, Wisdom, Joy, etc. The point is that the Aeons which the Barbello created were Perfect, that is they are all things emotionally positive and the germ that the archetypes of mundane reality imitate. They are the aspects of the first perfect Light, and are therefore all benevolent.

The Aeon Wisdom or Sophia (like the Hagia Sophia), at a point then had a thought without the inclusion of the First Perfect Light, trying instead to substitute it with her own light, since curiosity is after all the nature of Wisdom. From this imperfect thought was spawned the material world and also a parody of the Barbello to rule over it, known most commonly as the Demiurge. The Demiurge then in mimicry of the Barbello made the "aeons" of the material world which are essentially the backbone and structural support beams for physical reality. Also, it must be noted that the gnostics usually consider the material world to be a corruption of the Pure reality since it was not created with the light of the Barbello but rather Wisdom's light which she borrowed from Barbello, this is why there is so much suffering in the physical world, there is a constant interplay of duality which creates "friction", rather than a pure abstract Oneness without any contradictions. Thus at least you know the point up until the creation of the physical reality and the Demiurge... now my point:

The physical reality was formed when Sophia (Wisdom) had "an impure thought", that is a thought without the consent of the First Perfection, the Barbello. From this thought came a pregnancy and thus was born the imperfect Demiurge and the strife filled material universe.

Now this is the most important piece, and one that is neglected from mention in church but is fundamental to understanding the theology behind Jesus's " spiritual mission. Mary was impregnated by the "Holy Spirit", the Holy Spirit is the Perfect Essence of God, none other than the Barbello. Thus, Jesus, the incarnation in the flesh of the perfect Essense came to redeem the entire material reality. Finally, Sophia was given the consent of the Pure Thought from the ALL that spawned the material world itself. Sophia was given consent for this thought in the physical form of Mary who became pregnant with Jesus or the Barbello for the redemption of the material universe.

Message of Sympathy for the protesting Buddhist Monks and population in Myanmar

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
There is hardly a more noble circumstance in human events than when the spiritual superstructure of a nation or people truly does support the will of the downtrodden and oppressed of society by refusing to allow an unjust elite class to reign in a brutal and oppressive manner. Right now in Myanmar, formally known as Burma sections of the Buddhist monks caste have done just this: thrown their lot in entirely with the downtrodden populace. The monks are following the correct Dharma Law of supporting the aspirations of the popular masses over the evil and backwards elites who have enslaved society. Whenever this occurs it must be recognized as nothing less than a Miracle. At the same time we have to be careful not to over mysticize and specialize an event like this, because it is according to the Highest Wheel of Reality that spiritual leaders should seek Universal Justice for all of humanity in the mundane world. I call the act of the spiritual leadership defending the interests of regular people a miracle because organized religion has been used in conjunct with the state apparatus as a mechanism of control for a very long time now. This was never the intent of religious or spiritual movements and only takes place when statists use religion and spirituality to wrongly hold power against the overwhelming will of the people. Buddhism it seems has been one of the spiritual movements that have been the most resistant to co-optation by the state and serves as an admirable model for how the spiritual class should react to state endorsed violence, fundamentalist Christianity along with fundamentalist Islam would be examples of the opposite of Buddhism; religions which are controlled and used by wicked statists to further oppressive interests over general society. Early Christianity, before it was taken over by the Roman state was a Beacon of Light for change lead by Someone who was the embodiment of the Logos, Word of God, or Dharma. The Christ's movement was one of the weak and dispossessed. Jesus would be appalled by some of the positions taken today by some mainstream Christians who blindly support backwards and greedy world controllers who twist the Sacred Law he spoke 2000 years ago with their perverse Unlaw, or anti-Dharma. Jesus is a champion of all oppressed. He went amongst the lepers, pariahs and disfranchised and was himself a pariah. Yea, he should not be called "king of kings" but rather the Messiah of all Pariahs. It is hypocritical and wrong to call oneself a Christian and also state that in the eyes of God gays, lesbians, bisexuals, or transgendered people are hellbound or spiritually flawed in someway. Those people are some of the most economically, physically, culturally and spiritually oppressed sections of society the world over. Their existance is even denied in places like Iran where if they are found they are executed by a state that is following not the law of Dharma, but the Unlaw of Anti-Dharma. It is also wrong and irresponsible to call oneself a follower of Christ while at the same time accumulating massive quantities of wealthy that will never be used in a miserly fashion. If one has wealth one should use it, or at least a very significant portion of it to enhance society by solving social ills. The United States does not even have national health care, and many, many people who call themselves Christians are against having it (not to mention other progressive social programs): that is they are against universal health for the population. The health of the people should be a, if not the top priority of a society, as a Mother's top priority is the health of her baby. I thought it was a cliche, but it seems that we need to be reminded of the verse "It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24). I pray to the Great Center of Gravity, the Eye of the Two Worlds, the Cog of the Highest Wheel, the Tao, Dharma or God that the tides are turning; the world over humanity cannot take much more of the economic, physical, cultural, emotional, and spiritual poison dished out on a daily basis by irresponsible world controllers and the evil spiritual beings, archons, asuras, or demons they are puppeteered by. The most important thing to always remember is summed up best by the apostle of Christ, Paul, in Ephesians 6:12, he wrote: "For we do not struggle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the high places". We battle not against flesh and blood but evil spiritual energies. Let us honor and pray for and meditate on the actions of the brave Buddhist monks in Myanmar and take them to heart.

"I pray for our spiritual brothers and sister around the world, who through their shining Beings represent the Sacred Aspirations and Obligations of all people who are spokes in the unceasing rotational of the Wheel of God. Through understanding and patience will a cosmic kingdom of the Supreme Dharma be reborn first in our hearts, then in reality. Highest Wheel, God, invest the monks with your ineffable Strength and Intelligence. Aum".

A Word on the Eye in the Vortex and the Zodiacal sign of Cancer

Eye in the Vortex:
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Astrological Symbol of Cancer:

The Eye in the vortex and the astrological sign of Cancer are also very closely related. The near joining commas of the sign of Cancer are centered upon an invisible center of gravity as shown in the illustration below:
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
This is the gravity of creation. It is interesting that when I named this filed I saw that the acronym for "center of gravity" is COG, This Holy Density that the dualities spin around is indeed the Great Cog of the Highest Wheel. It is this speck of dense gravity which a galaxy revolves around, or that causes a rose to bud. It is not the dualities but the source and at the same time the culmination of them; the New Moon and the Full Moon; the very energy of Creation. Cancer is one of the four Cardinal signs; it is a powerful creator of energy. For good reason is Cancer considered the Maternal sign. It is the sign of Mother Nature.

The sign of Cancer is also different from the Eye in the Vortex. The symbol is missing the eye, and only the dualities are portrayed, the Cog is invisble but implied by the apparent rotation of the commas. It is because of the absense of this Center of Gravity that makes Cancer a lunar and receptive symbol - the Moon produces no light of Her own, but is like a chalice to be filled with or drained of Light thus the waxing and waning of the Moon is apparent, and in this way the dualities are in constant flux, now the Light Principle Dominant (Full Moon), then the Dark (New Moon). The Eye in the Vortex is representative of the combination of the powers of the luminaries, that is the power of the luminaries the two most obvious celestial representatives of the duality in motion - the symbol of the Eye in the Vortex is the symbol of the Invisible center of Gravity the commas in the Cancer symbol revolve around. It can be thought to be the same as both the Full Moon and the New Moon, but really it is the Sun and Moon and both their conjunction and opposition at the same time.

The Eye in the Vortex

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
The symbol is similar to the Yin Yang while also envoking thoughts of the eye over the pyramid. The Black and White intersecting commas, like on the yin yang represent the inter-flow of the dualities of reality. The eye in the middle as is the case with the eye over the pyramid represents the Eye of God. Thus the symbol is representative of the Mind's Eye of Enlightenment generating outwardly the parallels of reality and metareality. Conversely the duality of reality also flows inward to the Eye. I feel a word of what is meant by "God" is important here. God is the force that runs through the universe and is the Dharma that holds the Endless Worlds together. A few parallels found in nature to this Sign are Double Spiral Galaxies:

This Sacred Gravity is the very glue that holds our reality together. This is clearest way the Ineffable Micro/Macrocosm which is active invisibly in all things has manifested to us. This is a Force that needs to be recognized and adhered to by humanity; It is literarily the God/dess, Tao, Dharma or Divine Force manifest for us to recognize. This force, Nature, is higher than any human, or sentient being both physically and mentally and it, the Tao, must be observed and Stewerded by human society: now pushing forward, now easing back in an interplay of carefully coordinated opposites of positive and negative if humanity really wishes to survive the countless perils the 21st century has yet to unload unto us.
