"In my
Fathers Kingdom there are many mansions."
We
are extremely complex multi-dimensional beings who exist and function
through many different energetic structures, forms or "bodies":
A Physical
Body - enables us to function and interact in the material dimension.
Associated with the 1st chakra, the earth and her physical elements,
and the color red.
An Astral
Body - gives us the ability to have desires, emotions, imagination and
psychic awareness. Associated with the 2nd chakra, water, the moon (and
the other planets), dreams - unconscious mind, and the color orange.
A Solar
Body - gives us the ability to think, conceptualize, discern and will.
Associated with the 3rd chakra, the sun, the conscious ego-mind, and
the color of yellow.
The
Inner
Child or Inner Self (the "Child of God"). Aspects of the Inner Self may
be found in many chakras, particularly within the Inner Heart -
the
"Garden of Eden" (the Temple where "Heaven" and "Earth" meet). The God
Essence is held here within the Chalice or "Holy Grail".
Associated with the 4th chakra, the balance
point, the “Star of David”, and the colors gold and
green.
An Etheric
Body - holding the blueprint for our physical bodies form and
functions. Associated with the 5th chakra,
sounds, vibrations, words, the solar system and space, and the color of
blue.
A Causal
Body – the central planning and directing headquarters.
Associated with the 6th chakra, the
“Divine Will”, the galaxy, and the color purple and
violet.
A Light
Body - holding all the accumulated experiences, aspects, abilities and
knowledge of all our past lives. Associated with the 7th
chakra, higher intelligence, intuitive insights and knowing, the super
conscious mind, Angels, the universe, and the color white.
A
Christ
Body, Higher Self or "God Essence" - held within the "Inner
Heart", represented as the Chalice or "Holy Grail". Some may consider
this the Soul and/or the Light Body, expressed as wisdom, beauty, peace
and love. Associated with the 7th
chakra, the super universes. colorless - crystalline, pure, clear.
Making
clear cut distinctions between all these bodies and chakras can
sometimes be difficult,
especially when ones higher and lower aspects and energies
merge, interact or overlap. And because
every soul comes from a different place and thus has a different
perspective or point of view, there are many varied opinions about
these matters. This doesnt make one opinion wrong and another right,
only that everyone is different in the way they conceptually and
spiritually see and understand. The point is not to get bogged down by
differing opinions or concepts... but to realize we are much more
complex and glorious beings than we ever give ourselves credit for.
Channels
This earthly dimension - where our human self functions - is just the
tip of the iceberg to who we are and what we may be connected with and
access.
Extending up and down into all the various dimensions of creation
is an infinite array of consciousnesses and energies, each
making up the resources from which our soul can possibly align
and identify with as its collective "Higher Power".
Just as no
two people can have the same subjective experience of life, so to does
each
soul experience its own unique connection or "channel" to Spirit.
The openness and clarity
of the
channels between your human self and Spirit is
the limiting factor on how “much” you
can draw from that eternal infinite source (for use in healing,
personal development, etc.). Your channel to Spirit is
like a water hose: if it is
narrow, blocked or pinched, only so much water can come though.
However,
if you have a very wide open clear hose, the force and amount of
water (ie. love, life, light) that flows can be great. On
the other hand, “how much” can be channeled through is
not the only important factor, but how that which comes through can
be masterfully directed or applied. For example, there are
many people who can throw a
fast ball, but only a few who
have the mastery to direct it to the same place across the base, over
and over again. Likewise, anyone can use a scalpel, but only a
trained and knowledgeable surgeon knows where to safely and effectively
apply it.
Granted, to some extent we are all
innately endowed with the healing
gift - these
biological structures our souls inhabit cannot survive for very long
if they were not designed to
automatically self-repair (or “heal”). But
“Spiritual Healing” is a whole other ball game, and
in that arena, there are souls who “know” how to
heal and souls who don't. Irregardless, every soul has their own
unique gifts, be it for healing or something else.
A person
may spend years acquiring enough earthly knowledge and skills to
master a
given subject. However, at the level of the soul, many subjects take
lifetimes to master.
Purification
The primary goal of most all spiritual healing work is the purification
of the mental-emotional-spiritual-energetic bodies. The idea of
purification is that all the channels must be totally clear and
unencumbered to enable the powerful energies, vibrations and higher
consciousness
of spirit to freely flow in and through our whole beings. If we can
create the "inner space" where we are crystal clear channels (Christ
like), our higher self and all its virtues and gifts may fully
inhabit and function in us.
One
may
look upon the levels or dimensions of our being like a multi-tiered
apartment complex (skyscraper for some). The very highest levels
(the penthouse or master control rooms) are closest to the heavens
- the air is clear and we can almost touch the stars.
As we travel down to the lower levels (floors), each room holds a
different personality and energy field about it. And at the very
bottom, the basement is designed to support the physical structure
and contains the basic elemental supplies and mechanisms.
If any part
of this "apartment" building is abandoned, vacated, ignored or
neglected.. the rats (entities) will feel free to move in. And if
tenants continue to store their junk (dense vibrations and
negative energies) in their rooms without periodic clearing.. this
eventually accumulates and spills over into the walkways and stairwells
(channels).. impeding or "blocking" the smooth flow of
movement. The
purification process (this healing work) removes these blocks (those
dense vibrations,
negative energies and entities) that do not belong, allowing the
original tenant (you) to move back
in and fully occupy their now renovated spaces.
Integration
This healing
work helps to unify or "integrate" the higher energies
and aspects associated with all your multi-dimensional spirit
bodies.. opening the channels of communication and connecting the dots
or "links" between them (so to speak). Much of this integration occurs
naturally as your energetic space is cleared... a process that may take
a few days or be instantaneous. As your multi-dimensional bodies
becomes reunited into a whole... the soul re-exerts its
sovereign authority and the ego persona relaxes its "death grip"
on your life. The ego then takes a more
back stage presence, supporting your act or trip (your
divine purpose) instead of always
wanting to be center stage (running your life).
Multi-Dimensional Universe
There are
a great many energetic
vibrational dimensions encased within another (like a bubble
within a bubble within a bubble) all of which makes up one very big
bubble of consciousness called a
“universe” (one of many).
Each energetic vibrational dimension within a universe
has a corresponding sympathetic resonance for, are
inter-connected with, and penetrate into various aspects or
manifestations of creation.
The highest most subtle of dimensions is
called "Heaven" or "Paradise" - where the purified souls ascend to and
dwell. The lower levels are called "Purgatory" - where
souls process out or are "purged" of their karma. And the very lowest,
densest, grossest, material level is called "Hell" - where souls
descend to when they are unwilling or unable to release their
attachments to the
physical reality, enslaved to their lower passions and ruled by their
selfish ego.
Paradise, Purgatory or Hell - are not simply
some “place” to go to out
“there”, but are linked energetically and
vibrationally to ones inner state of mind or consciousness...
subjectively experienced everywhere the soul goes, be it in flesh
(embodied) or in spirit (in the after life).
These other dimensions above the physical - the
astral, solar, etheric and causal
dimensions - are
somewhat similar to what we have here, yet the higher one goes, the
more expansive, refined, subtle, sublime, lighter and less substantial
they become.
The higher dimensions of the etheric and
causal are what could be considered (relatively
speaking) the "Heavenly Realms". This is where the various assortments
of "Angelic" beings inhabit and function... tasked to oversee and
expedite
“His Will” upon Creation. The character of these elevated
"places" is more archetypal, with diffuse
flowing energies, celestial sounds and lights. There is less and less a
clear delineation of matter here. Vibrations are harmonious and
unifying (unlike those found in the lower created dimensions) so
awareness can easily be focused on "The One" or "Divine" with very
little if any distraction from sense of self, personal will or ego.
(Perhaps this is the "Garden of Eden" of the Bible or the "Pure Lands"
of the Buddhists).
The low to middle dimensions of the physical,
astral and solar contain pluralities of vibrations that are more
complex and convoluted. These are the dimensions of duality
consciousness that exist further (more separate) from "Source". To
those of us who are aware and sensitive beyond the physical, the
occupants of the astral and solar dimensions may appear mythical, even
dream like, yet to the denizens who exist on those same vibrational
frequencies, they are quite real to each other (where they interact and
exist). It’s just like those whom we interact with on this
physical level of vibrational frequency seem palpably real to us - we
are "attuned" to each other (sort of like turning the dial on the
radio). An astral, solar, or angelic being could very well walk right
through our physical bodies and - unless we were attuned and open to
their frequency - we would not notice them at all.
As one ascends up the scale, the very fabric
of these higher and higher dimensions become made up of subtler and
subtler energies and vibrations, which make it easier and easier for
the denizens of these dimensions to manipulate... simply, solely, and
directly with the creative powers of the mind and heart - through
thought, will or desire. Yet, unlike the Angelic beings (who dwell in
unity consciousness), the level of consciousness of these lower or
middle dimensional beings exists within a constant state of duality of
"me", "you", "us" and "them" - meaning, there is still an awareness of
separation. At these levels of consciousness, ones choices are not
always predicated on what is good for the "One" (the “Divine
Will”), but what the ego-mind decides (or identifies) as good
for "me" and “mine”. The individual still has free
will to make any choices that they wish, yet if they make choices that
are at odds with the divine will and its universal laws (i.e. love,
harmony and unity), they shall create pain and suffering for themselves
and others. Residents of all the dimensions (no matter how high) are
still subject to the laws of cause and effect - ie "karma".
Through
the process of entropy, the vibrations of that which exists on the more
invisible and intangible dimensions become slowed
down... down... to become more contracted, dense and heavy... till
they eventually manifest in this physical dimension.
And
as we too descended from the causal...
etheric... solar... astral... and then finally into the physical
dimension.... all that was invisible and intangible existing inside
our ego-mind-consciousness as archetypal ideas, thoughts, impulses,
feelings or desires... also became more tangible as they took on more
substance, shape and form. On the higher dimensions, our inner reality
is experienced in a more expansive and objective way, but when
incarnate, our inner reality gets
“mirrored” back to us in a more defined and
subjective way.. like “instant feedback”. This is
one of the main benefits of being incarnate - it is here where we can
intimately see and feel and deal with our soul... warts and all.
It’s the difference between seeing and feeling the earth from
outer space, verse seeing and feeling it from on its surface
– one is a generalized objective view, whereas the other is
very detailed and personal. There are of course benefits to both
positions and perspectives, but it is only through the physical
incarnation where the soul (if it is paying attention) may best find
out the truth of its self and live its purpose... and it is here where
the best opportunities are made available us. However, having come all
this way (from Heaven or Hell),
most of us have now forgotten just what we are doing here and why.
Perspective
From the
perspective of our lower self (here on planet earth) any one of
these bodies - from the astral on up - may appear more powerful,
beautiful, true and free...
to the point where we might even interpret any one of them as
our “High Self”
(it’s all relative).
Imagine you are traveling above and beyond
your physical earth body... floating into outer space you see your
astral extra-planetary body.... and above your
solar–star-sun body... and above and beyond that is your
etheric–galactic body... and beyond that in the empty space
between galaxies is your causal body... and above
and beyond all that your universal light body, essence or “God
Self”.
And sitting beyond all these intermediary
bodies... just beyond the expansive consciousnesses of your High Self
resides the "Source" - your "Creator.
Now imagine beyond the very limits of our
universe... just like the milky way galaxy contains our solar system,
and our universe contains this galaxy... there is yet a whole other
universe that not only encloses but has actually birthed (or
“Created”) our universe... and even beyond this,
there are other universes of consciousness that enclosed and birthed
(and “Created”) that one, and so on up. These
“parent” universes beyond ours we may call the
"Super Universes".
It is possible that ones Higher Self may have
been created in and originated from beyond the confines of this one
provincial universe (and may perhaps still dwell there in any one of
these other super universes). If your Higher Self did live in one of
these other universes, it would have such an expansive view of reality
(and your place in it) so far beyond the small planetary dramas you are
now experiencing. On the other hand, if your Higher Self was that far
off, the amount of healing work you would probably need (in order to
integrate your Higher Self and your human self) could be immense -
there could be any number of karmic issues and negative energies
separating the two of you (so much more than the average Spirit). This
is something this healing work can address. However, please
understand... at those very high levels, the healing would most likely
not be felt or sensed by your human self. None the less, this is work
you would desperately need if you were ever going to fully integrate.
