myth: mystery
"For
homo religiosus "the
appearance of life is
the central mystery".
Life
comes from somewhere that is not this world and finally depart from here and
goes to the beyond, in some
mysterious way continues in an unknown place inaccessible to the majority of
mortals." - Mircea Eliade
"In the mystery
absorb the Spirit
in silent
contemplation and thanksgiving.
Perform acts of compassion and
justice throughout the world.
Breathe in the
bliss and strength of
Allah; breathe out with
loving and just action the power that has been bestowed on you by
Allah." - Rumi
"They crossed land
stitched by mountain ridges between broad
plateaus.
Crossing them, Bistami felt they had traveled up into
a higher space, where sunsets threw long shadows over
a vast, dark, windy world.
As
a last shard of sunset light shot under
dark lowering clouds Bistami heard from somewhere in camp a musician playing,
carving in the air a long
plaintive melody that wound on, the song of a plateau soul in the dusk.
The sultana stood at
the edge of camp, listening,
watching the sun descend.
It dropped at the very
speed of time itself.
No
human mind could comprehend of no need to speak in
this world.
The music only touched the hem of it and
that strand they only felt.
The universal whole was
beyond them.
And yet; sometimes,
as at this moment,
at dusk in the wind, we catch with
a sixth sense we don't know we have,
glimpses of shapes of cosmic
significance, a
sense of everything as holy - beyond
sense, thought and
even feeling -
our visible world,
lit from within, by
vibrant reality." - Kim
Stanley Robinson
There is deep mystery -
the mystery of life,
mystery of
consciousness and the mystery
of your natural place within this existent reality.
Existence is a
mysterium,
a mystery,
mysterium tremendum et
fascinans, terrifyingly
horrific when initially contemplated because
true understanding smashes all of
your fixed notions of existent reality.
Horrific, yet utterly
fascinating, the beauty of nature and
your own being.
When you start thinking about
these things, about the
mystery within, which includes
Eternal Life, there are not
many symbolic conceptual
images to use.
Without prior
intellectual knowledge
you begin to recognize
symbolic images conveyed in personal spiritual experiences as present in
other systems of
thought, cultures and
religions.
When you see
your spiritual experiences
as parallel to those of individuals
from other cultures, other ages, other
social systems then you understand
these individuals had a
spiritual life nearly identical to your own.
The
divine spark of Creation in
you does not die - this is your Eternal Soul.
The
divine spark of Creation also
survives ego death and
is resurrected.
Heaven and
hell reside within the
Eternal Soul of every
man and
woman.
This is a great
realization of the
Upanishads of India in the 9th century BC.
All the gods, all the heavens, all
the worlds, live in myths within each of us.
They are magnified archetypical
dreams, manifestations of
the imagination filled with symbolic
conceptual imagery; may spawnfalse
understanding.
The mystery of life
is beyond accurate human conception.
Everything we think is
bounded by the terminology
of the concepts we use to
define reality - of being
and not being, many and single,
true and untrue.
We first
compartmentalize our
thoughts by thinking in terms of opposites.
We do this in order to decide how to
think about the object of contemplation.
Will we hold the object up in
the light so that we see it for what it truly is?
Or perhaps we take the object into
the dark because we are afraid that if we look too closely we may actually see
something we did not want to see !
Human beings search for
a way of experiencing reality
that is transcendent.
The
Eternal Soul aches to be
reunited with the Ineffable.
The Eternal Soul searches for
spiritually
transforming experience.
Human beings want to
resonate in harmony with
the grand
symphony.
Human beings want to feel
the mystery that informs all
things.
Symbolic
images cannot properly portray the
actual mystical
experience.
The ultimate mystery of existence can not be translated
into primitive material
symbols or any other conceptual
structure understood by the rational mind as understanding only comes from
Walking the
Thinspace.

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the faλsification of reaλity outside personal
experience has forged a populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from
reality and that this has been done purposefully by an internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt
version of reaλity on the human race. Religi☯us int☯lerance
☯ccurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious practices,
religi☸us beliefs or persons due to their religi⚛us
ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a system of
philºsºphy nªmed The Truth of the Way of the Lumière Infinie - a
ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery re☦igion based on reason which
requires no leap of faith, accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church
buildings and in which each and every individual is encouraged to develop a
pers∞nal relati∞n with Æ∞n through the pursuit of the
knowλedge of reaλity in the hope of curing the spiritual
c✡rrupti✡n that has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The
Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to
their religi☸us beliefs in America is considered a "hate
˘rime."
This web site in no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To
the contrary the intent here is to reduce the violence that is already
occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire
to c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the w☸rld
ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the
global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex
and is responsible for the collapse of morals, the eg● w●rship and
the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems. Civilization is based on
coöperation. Coöperation with bi☣hazards of a
gun.
American social mores and values have declined precipitously over
the last century as the corrupt international cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general
through c✡rp✡rate media by pressing emotional buttons which have
been πreπrogrammed into the πoπulation through prior
c☢rp☢rate media psych☢l☢gical ☢perati☢ns.
The results have been the destruction of the family and the destruction of
s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt internati☭nal
elites vision of a perfect world. Through distra˘tion and ˘oer˘ion the
dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been
direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite
that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
