God is a Word.
Why do I say this? In Quartum Organum is the following quote:
"All down the ages, man has been telling man what kind of a God, God is, and yet with
all his endless theories no word has come from that vast silence to tell him which
is right. To me that silence has a meaning, and that meaning is just this- there's
nothing there that can answer. All that could or would answer is natural, man-made, and
evolutionary".
This about settles it for you right? End of story? No. There is still something left that
we have not taken into account. The word 'God' still persists just as the words 'faith'
and 'belief' and all the other hopeful words along with these. These have a reason
for persisting. We will explore why these words remain for us to use. The above quote
indicate all is man-made and natural and evolutionary. Ok, lets accept just that.
These man-made words are natural and made for evolving are they not? Since they are
we will explore what use these words have for us and where to use and place them correctly.
Since all of history has very well proven to me that these words have been used improperly
and un-naturally, not to evolve but to control, mislead and reap profit, we will ignore the past belief and faith systems that participated in these perversions.
In considering the word God:
This word must represent the epitome of civilization, since we all hope that our own
being is the epitome of civilization. We can see that the word God and our own being
must be linked somehow. How is this done? It is done by faith, belief and imagination. Imagination is also placed within us to use. It has a function and when properly
placed and used, activates faith and belief to manifest that which we have faith
and belief in. In the past the word God was misplaced without the being. Here we
will place it within the being. Therefore the first imagination of God qualities is as follows:
1. The word God will be within the being.
We have options here. Should we call this inward being a God? Should we call it being,
beings being God or God being beings? Should we notice that being means being and
God means God and the two are different words? Why use two words when one will be
plain? One word is always better than two as it eliminates duality when speaking of the
one thing. It gets very complicated already. And if I use the words duality / unity,
it opens a whole discourse on what is unity. Is the God / being duality a unity?
Such dilemmas so soon. What is the answer? Lets just decide to choose one path. One path
is the only path we can travel. Lets imagine that this word God is just a being.
Seeing the above quote as intuitively correct that God cannot answer humanity because
it just isnt there is directly in conjecture with God being a being....unless...that being
is 'us and the word God is 'here' not there. We are beings. Seeing that the God /
being duality is incorrectly leading us, we will imagine that God and being are the
same or a unity. There, that settles the issue and opens the door for the second conclusion:
2. We are Gods.
This leads us to the third conclusion immediately:
3. We are Gods and the epitome of civilization.
I like imagination already..I AM a God and I AM the epitome of civilization. So far
so good. Ah good, lets claim that one too..I AM good.
A God should be bright. I would like to be bright therefore we will add brightness
to my countenance. Lots of light, like a star. I want to be a bright star. Don't
worry, its ok because we are Gods. Gods should be bright like stars. After all, imagination, belief and faith persist throughtout ancient millenia for a reason. Here we can add
the 4th conclusion.
4. Gods are bright stars, highly organized organisms and the epitome of civilizations.
Why fall into earth and have no light of my own?
What else should we imagine? After all the Greeks imagined the psyche could produce
bright people who were wise and sure enough, after a time, wise people began to be
born who produced a refined civilization before religion got ahold of them and ruined
their imagination. Imagination is a great tool isn't it? Whatever we imagine comes to
pass eventually. Should we have faith and belief in that which we imagine when it
manifests? That would be like a cat chasing its tail. When the cat chases something
it thinks is leading it around in circles and finally finds out that what it is chasing is
its own being, does the cat get wise? Will you get wise before you chase the manifestation
of your own imagination and finally find out that it is you, outside of you? Why
not choose to remain integrated within your Self and not produce a schizoid copy?
This conclusion leads us to accept the next God postulate:
5. There is nothing outside of you that is as God-like and civilized as Your being,
the epitome of civilization.
See how far we have come just under the assumption that God is just a word? We have
come around in a full circle...like a cat chasing its own tail. The 5th conclusion
is exactly the opposite of what the past belief systems have held you to. That was a cute trick
huh?
Since God is just a word, is within, is the epitome of words, is activated
by use of other words like faith and belief, shall we actually believe that this
being can do what it wishes? After all, a God should do what it wants to do and not
give account to a higher God shouldnt it? Should we invent a heirarchy for this God to give
account to or should we imagine again, that all Gods are equal, endowed with inalienable
rights to life, liberty and the persuit of happiness. Oops, I think that is a human
document and applies to humans..or is it? If we are Gods and humans also, then it
should apply to us Gods. Right? And why the use of the word in.alien.able? Who are
the aliens here? Is it us, who are alien, by way of our thinking that we are not
Gods?
Let try choosing between God and something I equate with God: harmonic order. Even
this equating is false. It is false because God is God and harmonic order is harmonic order.
Again two different words. Which word will you choose to follow? A word that cannot
be defined and cannot be proven or a word that clearly has a definition and can be proven?
If you are not a complete fool, you will choose harmonic order. This leads us to
the 6th conclusion:
6. We are a harmonic order.
Remember these are just words. Words convey power. Power of a God (again the word
God persists) within us and, in fact, are us. Words are hard things to get rid of
aren't they? This is exactly the opposite of the past God worshippers views of who
we are. This leads us to conclude that we are not only bright suns, the epitome of civilization,
existing within and autonomous but:
7. We are powerful and harmonic beings.
How can I say these things when it contradicts all that we have learned?
Why would I want to say such things in the first place? Who gave the authority to
say such things? Wherein is my power to speak as if my imagination, belief and faith
has completely overpowered me?
Why, it's because all of humanity is doing the same thing. The only difference is
that most of humanity really doesnt truely believe it. In fact, you have permission
to believe any and everything you wish to believe. In fact, you are totally unlimited
in that which you believe. What do you wish to be? What do you wish to invent for today
and the future? How do you wish to order your Heaven on earth harmonically?
Ok. So you are unlimited. You must now be responsible. Responsibility is the wisdom
to know what not to do. Do you know enough not to invent a God outside of yourself?
Do you understand the equality of Gods yet? Don't forget the Goddesses either. That
mistake will cost you. It will cost you exactly half of your life.
