VIRUS VERSUS VIRUS!

How do viruses operate?

According to the National Human Genome Research Institute a United States Research body, a virus is an infectious agent that occupies a borderline between living and the non-living. They are sub microscopic and can be described as parasitic as they can only survive inside a host cell in order to survive and replicate, thereby harming the host. Virologists say that you should think of the interaction between the virus and your body as a war. This battle can cause all sorts of problems in the body. Depending on the virus and its location, inflammation, fever, mucus and more can occur and in the case of COVID-19 the lungs can be affected leading to the deaths we see worldwide.

Now let us ask ourselves some questions: Are there similarities between the way viruses operate and the actions of men? Is it not true that like parasites we secretly want to earn a lot for doing little or nothing? If viruses precipitate wars on entering the human body, is this not similar to the attitude of the majority of men who are rough, who lack consideration for others and cause disharmony everywhere they go? If we are not sure whether viruses are living things or non-living things, is this not the same for many men today who are only living physically but are almost dead spiritually?  Today, a virus is at war with the entire world population, as all of us are affected in one way or another. Let us humbly admit that our penchant for confrontation, causing disharmony and living as parasites have now been brought home to us! The law of sowing and reaping is now presenting to each and every one of us the fruits of our past activities which includes our deep inner wishes, our thoughts, our words and our visible deeds. 

If mankind’s former actions require that a global pandemic should break out in reciprocity, then the law of Sowing and Reaping is bound to bring about the natural conditions that will give rise to it! Once man has called for it in thought and action, the nature beings who are servants of the Lord inside of Nature will ensure that these desires manifest in the material world, for good or evil just as man has desired it earlier on.

New spiritual knowledge makes us understand that tribulation, despair and destruction are always and only the lawful reciprocal effects of wrong actions.

Let us resolve today to become truly human in every sense and this means becoming a source of joy to fellow beings!

WHAT IS HAPPINESS?

Happiness is a condition of the soul. It is felt within. It cannot be measured by the earthly senses as such. Our earthly senses (the intellect) wants to dimension everything but who can measure the size, weight or height of happiness? It can only be inwardly sensed. At best, the intellect can be self-satisfied, but never really happy. Happiness therefore, depends on the condition of the spirit. A spirit which is unburdened and unconstrained in this Creation will be happy. As long as it knows and adheres to all the Laws of God, happiness comes to it as a reward. He is content. Happiness actually is contentment; spiritual contentment. It means contentment with the present, enjoying and experiencing each moment in all its ramifications, taking in all its blessings and benefits, lessons and maturing thereby.

The happiness we are considering has nothing to do with earthly position and wealth. Wealth does not necessarily bring happiness and there are many materially poor people who are perfectly happy, perfectly content. This happiness comes with an understanding of where our path leads us after our life on earth. It comes with the knowledge that our spiritual ascent is the main purpose of life. This way, we will not be intimidated by any condition we find ourselves: whether rich or poor, sick or healthy, at peace or in conflict as we will be able to recognise why we are having these experiences which add to our spiritual maturity. We will see beyond the outward occurrences but consider them as aids towards our spiritual growth. This way we will be happy no matter our circumstances.

True happiness also comes hand in hand with a deep inner feeling of being protected by the Almighty and having confidence in the Will of God.

In one sentence, happiness is when we live in complete harmony with the Will of God, receiving and using the powers of Creation aright which lets us intuitively experience peace, contentment and bliss unceasingly! We will also be able to stand in prayer of thanksgiving in perpetuity!

AVOID THE LIMITATIONS IMPOSED BY CREEDS!

Christ Jesus, the personification of Divine Love, did not concern Him­self with creeds. Creeds are actually meant to control blind followers. They also fulfil man’s craving and love for ease. After all it is easy to convince oneself that by attending a meeting of believers on a particular day set aside for this, one has fulfilled a major Commandment.  It is also easy to assume that one has attained a high level of purity simply by avoiding the consumption of a particular type of meat! However, Jesus advised long ago that we should look deeper than these.

It so happened that one day a Pharisee came to report to Jesus that His disciples have not only transgressed the Commandment to keep the Sabbath holy, they do not observe the times of fasting and they neglect the prescribed ablutions. In response, Jesus made it clear that we need to look for the real and spiritual values in what we do and not just cling to the outward forms only. So, He kindly responded that man can actually have the Sabbath every day, ablutions point us to the need to purge our souls and fasting is not just about abstaining from food. On that occasion, Jesus declared: “The man who communes with himself in a quiet hour, who frees himself from all base, everyday thoughts, who does not indulge his lusts, and humbly approaches his God in prayer, keeps the Sabbath. He hallows it! He has cleansed himself of all impurities, and have fasted by eating only what his body needed.”

Now we should not think we are above creeds. Are you looking down on people who are not of the same faith you hold dear? Are you keen to fulfil the outward aspects of your religion so that others can see you as a good example? Are you always eager to be in the good books of the head of your religious association? Do you assume that members of your religious group are perfect?  All of these are the characteristics of a life suffering from the shackles of creed and dogma! Free yourself today!

A LITTLE COSMOLOGY AND MORE…

Our Solar System consists of the Sun and the planets that orbit around it. Then in this same solar system we have numerous moons, asteroids, comets, rocks, and dust.

Our Solar System belongs to our Galaxy known as the Milky Way Galaxy! The Milky Way Galaxy alone has billions of Solar Systems. So vast you will agree.

Our entire Universe is made up of billions of Galaxies. Unimaginable!

From the new spiritual knowledge available on earth today we understand that our own Universe is named Ephesus! And there are seven Universes namely: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea. In the Book of Revelations, these Universes are described as Churches each having an Angel as a Guardian. Now all these Universes form the World of Matter, which is the material part of the vast Creation.

Above the World of Matter is the Realm of Substantiality. This Realm has two parts. The first part consists of the nature beings the last of whom are the elves, gnomes, nixies and so on. These nature beings play a part in the further development towards the forming of the world of matter. They still cooperate in the further development of matter even to this day. The second part of the Realm of Substantiality consists of unconscious substantiality from which issues the life of the animal soul.   

Above the Realm of Substantiality is Spiritual Substantiality. This is a vast Realm consisting of two parts: Conscious Spiritual Substantiality and Unconscious Spiritual Substantiality. Man has his origin in the precipitation of Unconscious Spiritual Substantiality.

Above all the worlds, yes above all Creation is the Almighty Father and the Divine Realm which radiates from out of the Lord, the Creator of all!
