“To be in relationship with truth or the Earth Goddess is to be spiritual. Remember, to be in relationship -- not to talk about spirituality, not to follow a certain creed, dogma, church, but to be in direct immediate relationship with existence is spirituality…

It has nothing to do with going to the church or the temple, it has nothing to do with reciting the Koran or The Bible or the Gita. It has nothing to do with any kind of worship ritual, it has something to do with communion -- communion with the trees, communion with the stars, communion with the rivers, communion with all that is. It is communion with this multidimensional expression of the Earth Goddess, it is having a dialogue with the whole. The quality of mad love is needed, then you are spiritual. Spirituality is not a head trip; it is a heart-to-heart dialogue, and ultimately a being-to-being dialogue.”
― Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho)

“At the end of seven hundred years, the laurel will be green once more.”
― Guillaume Bélibaste, the last Cathar

Additional Notes: The Cathars were a Gnostic movement based in Southern Europe, particularly in northern Italy and southern France. The Cathars are said to have guarded the historical Grail in Montsegur, the solar fortress of the Cathars. The Catholic Church, eager to possess it, carried out a bloody crusade against them.

The Cathars considered the Laurel to be the sacred symbol of pure love. When inquisitors executed Cathars, the Martyrs said: “the laurel wilts, pure love dies.” However, they knew one day the Laurel would not only return again but flourished in an age that welcomed it.

Guilaume Bélibaste who spoke this line was burned to death by the Catholic Church in 1321. 700 years on from the time that this was spoken would have been 2021 so it would seem that the prophecy of which they spoke hasn’t come to pass. However, a key date within the history of the Cathars is March 16th 1244 when over 200 Cathars were burned alive for their gnostic heresies. 700 years on from that date brings us very close to a critical year for Gnosticism which is 1945 (roughly 701 years from this date which would be ‘the end of 700 years’) the year in which the Nag Hammadi codexes were discovered by Egyptian farmers.

We don’t know exactly when these lines were first spoken but the prophecy and timing of the discovery of Gnostic texts thought to be long lost is certainly something to consider. Another crucial event in Gnostic history that occurred in 1945 was the birth of the one man who would make the translation of those discovered texts his life’s work proposing a radical and heretical interpretation; the man I’m referring to here is, of course, John Lamb Lash.

The 'War on Terror' never made any sense, but a 'War on Terra' (as in, a war against the Earth) does. It is a deception that the Globalist-Technocrats care about mother Earth. They don't, but it's how they sugar-coat the war they're waging against this wonderful ecosystem and Dharma which maintains it.

Those in control of human society are primarily responsible for the bomb-strikes and pollution which scar this Earth. They tear down the megaliths and temples which honour the natural world. Their social policies promote behaviour so perverse it is an affront to the natural order. And now we are supposed to believe they're controlling humanity to save the planet? Not a chance.

They may seek transcendence from the material realm, but that is not a Gnostic trait. Most likely they are jealous because they nor their false demiurge have the creative ability to create or sustain something like this Earth and the natural order that blossoms. And if they can't claim it, they'll destroy it.

If this post resonates with you, make sure to listen to my recent discussion with John Lamb Lash.

“We have a predator that came from the depths of the cosmos and took over the rule of our lives. Human beings are its prisoners.
 
The predator is our lord and master. It has rendered us docile, helpless. If we want to protest, it suppresses our protest. If we want to act independently, it demands that we don't do so...
 
Sorcerers believe that the predators have given us our systems of beliefs, our ideas of good and evil, our social mores.
 
They are the ones who set up our hopes and expectations and dreams of success or failure. They have given us covetousness, greed and cowardice. It is the predators who make us complacent, routinary and egomaniacal.”
―Carlos Castañeda, The Active Side of Infinity

Image: Nicolás Rosenfeld

Notes: The books of Carlos Castañeda record his apprenticeship with a Yaqui Indian, Don Juan playing Socratic mentor to Castaneda’s scepticism. In his final book Castañeda raises what he calls, ‘the topic of topics’ and ‘the most serious topic in sorcery’. The topic of predation.

“Untroubled, scornful, outrageous - that is how wisdom wants us to be: she is a woman and never loves anyone but a warrior.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra

Image: Kalki Avatar slaying demons by Fridolin Froehlich

Additional Notes: Some representations of the Kalki avatar show a white horse with no rider, suggesting the question: Who is missing? Why is the white horse riderless? Who shall be mounted on this horse?

This imagery is consistent with the challenge facing humanity today: to restore honour to manhood in the fullest possibility of genuine virile power that can be imagined. The haunting image of the riderless horse points exactly to what is missing in the current closing chapter of the world drama: the Kalki avatar is the wrath of Gaia-Sophia in male-gendered expression.

Until that happens, the honour of man is a riderless horse.

“The masses have never thirsted after truth. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim.”
― Gustave Le Bon

Additional Notes: Buddhist scholar H. V. Guenther specifies: "Illusion does not mean the illusion of perception, but the false conclusion we base on perception.” In Buddhist and Gnostic traditions alike, the purpose of illuminist discipline is to get behind the veil to find reality and become free.

The Gnostic Critique of Info Warriors / Truthers

“Holding the belief-system of salvationism (based on the four points of the Palestinian redeemer complex*) does not prevent info-warriors from doing an excellent job of exposing the New World Order, but it will almost certainly prevent them from defeating it because in salvationism they embrace the very beliefs that inspire and drive the system they are opposing.”
— John Lamb Lash, Sophianic Cosmology

*The redeemer complex has four components: the creation of the world by a father god independent of a female counterpart; the trial and testing (conceived as a historical drama) of the righteous few or “Chosen People;” the mission of the creator god’s son (the messiah) to save the world; and the final, apocalyptic judgment delivered by father and son upon humanity.

“To rule by fettering the mind through fear of punishment in another world, is just as base as to use force... Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all.”
― Hypatia of Alexandria

Image: Detail from Hypatia by Pandora Young

Additional Notes: Hypatia was the daughter of the mathematician Theon of Alexandria, the last known teacher in the age-old tradition of the Mystery Schools, the spiritual universities of antiquity. Historians have long regarded her brutal murder by a Christian mob as the event that defined the end of classical civilization in Mediterranean Europe. It signalled the end of Paganism and the dawn of the Dark Ages.

“All saints revile her, and all sober men
Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean -
In scorn of which we sailed to find her
In distant regions likeliest to hold her
Whom we desired above all things to know,
Sister of the mirage and echo.”
― Robert Graves, Extract from The White Goddess

Image: Apollo and the Muses (1921) by John Singer Sargent

Additional Notes: Here we see Apollo depicted by Sargent surrounded by nine muses. In Mystery language, the Ninth is code for the Earth as an organic planetary body distinct from the inorganic planetary system, called the Hebdomad or the Seventh. In many mythologies throughout the world, nine is the number of the Goddess. Three times three is the preeminent signature of feminine divinity. Graves says, "The Triple Muse is woman in her divine character: the poet's enchantress, the only theme of his songs”

Select notes on Bhairavi compiled from various sources

All spiritual phenomena in the universe tread the twin paths of beauty and danger. Goddess Bhairavi is the terrifying aspect of the Dasha Maha Vidya representing divine wrath and anger. With her piercing shrieks and petrifying rage she dispels negative forces that try to curb spiritual growth. Her name itself denotes terror or the one who is awe-inspiring. Although a frighteningly raw energy, she is mankind’s guide and protection. She signifies the proverbial wrath of a mother towards beings that threaten her children.

Sacred Anger, Sacred Honesty: Bhairavi's instruction on anger as a transpersonal force of perception, and the role of honesty in eliciting choice; a succinct and elegant teaching.

This is the call for heroic honesty.

“Thou hast conquered, O pale Galilean; the world has grown grey from thy breath;/ We have drunken of things Lethean, and fed on the fullness of death”
― Algernon Charles Swinburne

Additional Notes: The word ‘Lethean’ refers to Greek mythology, the river Lethe is one of five rivers of the underworld of Hades. The Lethe flowed around the cave of Hypnos and through the Underworld where all those who drank from it experienced complete forgetfulness.

The Gnostic understanding of Deep Ecology

In deep ecology, bonding to the land is the first condition for an ecologically sane society. “The first thing to do is to choose a sacred place and live in it.” So advised Pawnee tribe elder, Tahirussawichi. The Pagan pact with the land can be regarded as what is today called bioregionalism. Native Americans frequently insist that they belong to the land, the land does not belong to them.

In its reverence for nature the Pagan religious outlook honored and encouraged empathic bonding of person to place, not divinely ordained possession of the land. Mountains, hills, grottos, wells, rivers, all were sacred, not because any doctrine declared them to be, but because the experience of the peoples native to a particular locale was grounded in a direct and sensuous revelation of divinity.

Ancient bioregionalism, in Europa as well as in the Americas, was not superstitious folly, but a genuine, lived animism.

Image: Ceres Roman Fertility & Agriculture by Emily Balivet

"The polytheist envisaged his native place as a unique whole defined by geography, climate, history, and the local economy, as well as by the gods who particularly frequented it, ensured its prosperity, and might even assume its name. No part of this identity, a delicate interweaving of divine, natural, and human…could be subtracted or neglected without impairing the harmony and viability of the whole."
― Garth Fowden

Additional Notes: Paganism may be defined by the primary orientation of society to the natural world, the habitat, and perceived it holistically. Fowden notes that pagans were immersed in "that distinctive understanding of divinity that comes through dwelling together with the gods in a certain place, a precise local knowledge that no distant prophet could or would ever make into a noscripture." In the Pagan sense of life, culture is organically situated in nature.

“It was lunar symbolism that enabled man to relate and connect such heterogeneous things as: birth, becoming, death, and ressurection; the waters, plants, woman, fecundity, and immortality; the cosmic darkness, prenatal existence, and life after death, followed by the rebirth of the lunar type ("light coming out of darkness"); weaving, the symbol of the "thread of life," fate, temporality, and death; and yet others. In general most of the ideas of cycle, dualism, polarity, opposition, conflict, but also of reconciliation of contraries, of ‘coincidentia oppositorum*’, were either discovered or clarified by virtue of lunar symbolism. We may even speak of a metaphysics of the moon, in the sense of a consistent system of "truths" relating to the mode of being peculiar to living creatures, to everything in the cosmos that shares in life, that is, in becoming, growth and waning, death and resurrection.”
―Mircea Eliade, The Sacred and the Profane

The Gnostic understanding of the moon

The surviving Gnostic writings contain no graphic denoscriptions of how the moon was created, what is indicated is that at some point that the Aeon Sophia discharges the moon from her terrestrial body. Within gnostic cosmology the Earth, Sun, and Moon form a symbiotic system enclosed on itself and dynamically distinct from the clockwork mechanism of the other planets.

Normally, we do not feel ourselves integrated into a planetary system, but into a three-body cosmos comprising of the Sun, Earth and Moon. These are constantly present, tangible and visible. They mark the rhythms of life and impact us in many ways, down to the cellular level. The planets cannot be said to do likewise, for they are not immanently and intimately active in all life-processes, even in our conscious living habits, as the Sun and Moon are.

Due to the “conversion of Sabaoth,” the physics of the Sun are integrated closely with the terrestrial biosphere. Thus, Sun, Moon and Earth reflect, although in a compromised manner, the three-formed intent of the Aeon Sophia. The Sun and Moon remain dominated by inorganic chemistry, yet they are intimately integrated into the organic chemistry of the biosphere. The Moon emerges during the same period that “the earth has consolidated itself through Sophia”, and acts as a counterweight to the Heptad (the inorganic realm of celestial mechanics).

The Moon was not ejected physically from the Earth, as the current, admittedly shaky theory of lunar formation asserts. Instead, the Moon was distilled from the biosphere by an act of secretion, a slow discharge of inorganic elements. This is why the Moon and its cycles remain intimately linked “structurally coupled” to all life-forms on earth.

With its pearl-like rotundity, the Moon represents the condensed end of the original “shoot” of cosmic plasma from the galactic core. Imagine a molten bubble of foam-like Pleromic plasma condensed and ossified, absorbing inorganic elements that would otherwise have penetrated the biosphere and loaded it down too heavily.

This assertion of Gnostic Cosmology is in much closer alignment with the Electric Universe Model and plasma cosmology, a growing alternative view of the universe spear headed by the Thunderbolts Project. The assertion of the moon being made of Plasma was also made by Professor Robert Foster in 1965 (see video clip below). Foster asserted that the moon was in fact made of plasma, not rock and that landing on it would not be possible. (For those aware of the fraudulent Apollo moon landings you will know that this is still yet to happen) Foster claimed that once his ‘profound and decisive’ investigations were proven, a complete re-investigation of the laws of nature would be necessary. From this we can assume that one of the purposes of the fraudulent moon landings were perhaps to occlude and halt investigation into plasma cosmology and undermine the sacred and mysterious nature of the moon by casting it simply as an inorganic ball of rock. The symbolic nature of the divine feminine of the moon conquered by Apollo (the masculine solar principle) is also of note.

-notes from Sophianic Cosmology and various sources

In 1965 Professor Robert Foster attempted to turn conventional science on its head. Among Foster’s assertions were that the moon was in fact made of plasma, not rock, and that landing on it would not be possible. Foster claimed that once his ‘profound and decisive’ investigations were proven, a complete re-investigation of the laws of nature would be necessary.

“Without conscious rituals of loss and renewal, individuals and societies lose the capacity to experience the sorrows and joy that are essential for feeling fully human. Without them life flattens out, and meaning drains from both living and dying. Soon there is a death of meaning and an increase in meaningless deaths.”

“To the extent that Catholicism contains any good ideas, they all come from the covert Mithraic and Platonic pagan elements of the religion. The Protestants got rid of the pagan elements and returned Christianity to a type of Judaism. In the absence of pagan elements, Christianity was never anything other than Messianic Judaism based on Jesus Christ as the Jewish Messiah, so the Messianic Jews are unquestionably the purest Christians in the world. Protestants are Jews who haven’t realised they’re Jews and Catholics are pagans who haven’t realised they’re pagans.”
―Adam Weishaupt

Notes: Weishaupt (1748-1830) was a German* philosopher and founder of the Bavarian Illuminati. His assertions and critique of the Abrahamic religions hold a great deal of truth however Weishaupt and his ‘illuminated’ brethren’s rejection appear to be carried out while still within the Abrahamic narrative framework preventing them from being truly liberated from the infernal dialectic.

“In the beginning there was Isis-Hathor: Oldest of the Old. She was the Goddess from whom all Becoming arose. She was the Great Lady, Mistress of the Two Lands of Egypt, Mistress of Shelter, Mistress of Heaven, Mistress of the House of Life, Mistress of the Divine Word. She was the Unique. In all Her great and wonderful works She was a wiser magician and more excellent than any God.”
