"Ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the
birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will
teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of all these does not
know what the hand of the God has done this? In God's hand is the life of every
creature and the breath of all mankind." - Job 12:7-10
"Even as the visible sun that assists, as decreed
by God, the true One, in the development of all earthly things, such as the
trees, the fruits, and colors thereof, the minerals of the earth, and all that
may be witnessed in the world of creation, so do
the divine Avatars, by their
loving care and educative influence, cause the trees of divine unity, the
fruits of His oneness, the leaves of detachment, the blossoms of knowledge and
certitude, and the myrtles of wisdom and utterance, to exist and be made
manifest." - Bahá'u'lláh
"It is not in "God's house" that I feel His
presence most - it is in His outdoors, on some sun-warmed slope of pine needles
or by the surf. It is there that the numbing categories men have devised to
contain this mystery of existence
fall away." - Bill McKibben
"Look at the
birds of the air. They don't plant or gather crops. They don't put away crops
in storerooms. But your Father who is in heaven feeds them. Aren't you worth
much more than they are? Can you add even one hour to your life by worrying?
And why do you worry about
clothes? See how the
wild flowers grow. They don't work or make clothing. But here is what I
tell you. Not even Solomon in all of his glory was dressed like one of those
flowers. If that is how God dresses the wild grass, won't he dress you even
better? After all, the grass is here only today. Tomorrow it is thrown into the
fire. You have so little faith! " - Matthew 6:25-30
Panentheism is
commonly misidentified as a combination of theism (god is the supreme being)
and pantheism (god is everything) but this is incorrect.
Panentheists
theorize that the Creator is not everything but that emanations pouring forth
from the Creator include specifications for reality as well
as a blueprint for human
existence which the Creator and Sustainer animates through
Eternal Emanation.
Eternal Emanation in Hebrew is
called Sovev Kol Almin. Although the Creator continually remains in stasis
Creation is subject to
Eternal Change.
The Creator is the sacred, sovereign,
omnipresent,
omniscient,
omnipotent,
self-existent,
eternal,
immutable, perfectly creative
animating and motivating force of all that exists.
The Bible presents
the Creator as sacred (Isaiah 6:3; Revelation 4:8), sovereign (1 Chronicles
29:11; Nehemiah 9:6; Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 37:20),
omnipresent (Psalm
139:7-10), omniscient (Job 28:24;
Psalm 147:4-5), omnipotent (Job 42:1-2),
self-existent (Exodus 3:14; Psalm 36:9),
eternal (Psalm 90:2; Habakkuk 1:12),
immutable (Psalm 33:11; James
1:17), perfect (Deuteronomy 32:3-4), and infinite (Job 5:9; 9:10).
These
attributes of the Creator are compatible with the theory that the Creator
motivates and animates His
Creation.
The Creator and Sustainer
emanates pulsating waves, with both positive and negative elements, as
Shiva-Nataraja.
The Sustainer resides in the Center of Eternity
where the Rainbow
Spiral of Golden Time is located.
Coming into direct contact with
the Sustainer creates
Erotic Euphoria.
Erotic Euphoria
informs the receiving being and that being responds having heard the Call to
become an Avatar of
the Sustainer.
A few of names of
Avatars may be familiar -
Moshe Rabbenu,
Pythagoras,
Lao Tzu,
Siddhartha Gautama,
Jesus the Tekton,
Muhammad ibn 'Abdullāh,
Teresa Sanchez de Cepeda y
Ahumada.
The Sustainer sends
an Avatar when any of the three rings of the Collective Subconscious become
unbalanced.
The
Collective
Subconscious becomes unbalanced when too many humans began to look at the
abyss with yearning - a yearning for self-annihilation.
The
Collective
Consciousness of the Western Mind no longer recognizes an
Avatar as
Theodosius I and all his
henchman from Damasus I
on down through Joseph Aloisius
Ratzinger made sure that all Avatars
are shunned when the Burning Bush Shines through
their Eyes.
Due to the change in
Collective
Consciousness, the non-acceptance of the Avatars of the
Sustainer due to Constantine's State religion,
the Sustainer came up with a new dispersal
plan.
Avatars
may be found in all peoples in all places but the
Avatar will not
rest and hold one body but
continue to dance between individual bodies touching Souls here and there
with Euphoric
Reality as the Sustainer demands no more
sacrifices like the one Jesus of
Nazareth was forced into by the Pharisees using the hand of
the Roman
Empire.
Subatomic particles do not have an independent,
continuous existence but blink in and out of
existence countless times every second.
Countless times every second,
every subatomic
particle in the entire
universe is
being re-born.
God's creation did not
end in the past, but is continually flowing forth.
The first and
most ancient ideas of panentheism originate in the
Bhagvad Gita.
North American Indians were and still are
largely panentheistic, conceiving of
the Creator and
Sustainer as both immanent in Creation and
transcendent from it.
Panentheism is a theological
component of Hasidic Judaism
and Kabbalah.
Several Sufi
saints and critical thinkers, primarily
Ibn Arabi, held beliefs that were panentheistic.
Many
interpretations of
Hinduism can be seen as
panentheistic.
Gnosticism claims that
substance was created by emanations of God.
The panentheism concept
of God is closely associated with the
Logos as stated in the 5th century works of
Heraclitus in which the
Logos pervades the cosmos and whereby all
thoughts and things originate.
I bind unto myself today to the
Creator and
Sustainer of all.
Creator and Sustainer beside me,
Creator and Sustainer
before me,
Creator and Sustainer behind me,
Creator and Sustainer
beneath me,
Creator and Sustainer above me,
Creator and Sustainer on my
right,
Creator and Sustainer on my left,
Creator and Sustainer within
me,
Creator to comfort and restore me,
Sustainer to guide me in quiet
and in danger,
Creator in the heart of every man who thinks of
me,
Sustainer in the mouth of every man who speaks of me,
Creator in
every eye that sees me, in every ear that hears me.
"All around us, to right and left, in front and
behind, above and below, we have only to go a little beyond the frontier of
sensible appearances in order to see the divine welling up and showing through.
But it is not only close to us, in front of us, that the divine presence has
revealed itself. It has sprung up universally, and we find ourselves so
surrounded and transfixed by it, that there is no room left to fall down and
adore it, even within ourselves.
By
means of all created things, without exception, the divine assails us,
penetrates us and moulds us. We imagined it as
distant and inaccessible, whereas in fact
we live steeped in its burning layers. In eo vivimus. As Jacob said, awakening
from his dream, the world, this palpable
world, which we were wont to treat with the boredom and disrespect with
which we habitually regard places with no sacred association for us, is in
truth a holy place, and we did not know
it. " - Pierre Teilhard de
Chardin
"One of the wildest aspects of mystical
Christian thought lies in the simple truth that God is everywhere. If God is in
fact everywhere, then God is in all things, and all things are in God." -
Biblical Panentheism
"As long as the Earth endures, seedtime and harvest,
cold and heat, summer and
winter, day and night will never cease." - Genesis 8:22

Everything originally
emanated from God,
the Creator and Sustainer,
who brought the
universe into existence.
God set the
rules of reality.
The noumenon consists of the
Power of God
-
coagulated into substance.
Compassion of God is
a dream of life.
Inanimate substance is granted a
divine spark of
God's soul and responds by
living.
God wills
life into the reality of inanimate existence.
Existence in reality is dependent upon the
rules of reality
and
the source of reality,
God, the Creator and Sustainer.
God's compassion for
life unfolds everchanging.
Everchanging life recreates itself within
God's Creation.
God's
children, everchanging life,
adapts to the inanimate substance of
reality
when given ample time to
adapt. |

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 engage reality to which its author adheres. The
author feels that the falsification of reality outside personal experience has
created a populace unable to discern propaganda from reality and that this has
been done purposefully by an international corporate cartel through their
agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reality on the human race.
Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate religious
practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their religious ideology. This
web site marks the founding of a system of philosophy named The Truth of the
Way of Life - a rational religion 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 personal relation
with the Creator and Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowledge of reality
in the hope of curing the spiritual corruption that has enveloped the human
spirit. The tenets of The Truth of the Way of Life are spelled out in detail on
this web site by the author. Violent acts against individuals due to their
religious beliefs in America is considered a "hate crime."
This web site
in no way condones violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the
violence that is already occurring due to the international corporate cartels
desire to control the human race. The international corporate cartel already
controls the world economic system, corporate media worldwide, the global
industrial military entertainment complex and is responsible for the collapse
of morals, the elevation of self-centered behavior and the destruction of
global ecosystems. Civilization is based on cooperation. Cooperation does not
occur at the point 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 populace in general through corporate media by pressing emotional
buttons which have been preprogrammed into the population through prior mass
media psychological operations. The results have been the destruction of the
family and the destruction of social structures that do not adhere to the
corrupt international elites vision of a perfect
world. Through distraction and coercion the direction of thought of the
bulk of the population has been directed toward solutions proposed by the
corrupt international elite that further consolidates their power and which
further their purposes.
