Teachers from the East speak of a consciousness that includes
within itself all other forms of consciousness.
Swami Rama names it "superconsciousness" and Sri Aurobindo has called
this "supramental
consciousness".
The ancient traditions of India remind us
consciousness is self-existent - independent of everything in
existence.
Consciousness
does not arise out of or depend on anything outside of itself such as time
or reality.
Consciousness,
always existing, is inherently complete.
This Upanishad describes
four states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, sleep, and
Turiya.
Mandukya Upanishad refers to
integrated
consciousness as "Turiya."
Waking consciousness is
rational
consciousness.
Dreaming includes
mythical and
magical
consciousness.
Waking
REM sleep is
considered to be a state of oneness analogous to
archaic
consciousness.
Mandukya Upanishad states:
"In sleep experience merges into a
unity of undifferentiated consciousness."
Turiya is a state of
consciousness is which the other three states are
recognized spontaneously in an epiphany.
Instantaneous conscious
apperception of culturally
induced subconscious framing of reality blazes forth.
"He who
is enveloped in this Satisfaction is
in need of nothing
whatsoever to satisfy him.
I had the full value of
everything that could possibly be desired." - Franklin Merrill
Wolff
"Vision requires far more than
a functioning organ
without an inner
light,
without a formative visual imagination,
we are blind
!
Vision requires
an inner light
compliments
the familiar outer
light
transforming
raw sensation
into
meaningful
perception
The light of
the mind must flow into and
marry the light of nature to bring
forth reality."
Arthur
Zajonc
value is defined as:
to hold
dear
a culturally
accepted ideal
worth in
usefulness or importance to
the possessor
"A
true revolution of
values will soon cause us to question the fairness and justice of many of
our past and present policies.
We are called to play
the good Samaritan on life's
roadside; but that will be only an initial act.
We must come to see
the whole road must be transformed so that men and
women will not be constantly
robbed as they
journey on life's highway.
Compassion
is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it is not
superficial.
It
comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.
A true revolution of values will soon look uneasily on the glaring
contrast.
With righteous indignation, it will look across the seas and
see individual
capitalists of the West investing huge sums of money in Asia,
Africa and South
America, only to take the profits
out with no concern for the social betterment of the countries, and say:
"This is not just."
It will look at
our alliance with the landed gentry
of Latin America and say: "This is not just."
The Western arrogance,
everything to teach, and nothing to learn.
A true revolution of values will
lay hands on the world order and say of war: "This way of settling differences
is not just."
Burning human beings with
napalm, filling homes with
orphans and widows,
injecting poisonous drugs of hate into veins of people normally humane,
sending men home from
dark and bloody battlefields physically handicapped and
psychologically
deranged, cannot be reconciled.
A nation that continues year after
year to spend more money on military
endeavors than on
programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.
America,
the richest nation on Earth,
can lead a revolution of values.
Only
a tragic death wish
prevents America from reordering priorities, so that
the pursuit of peace will
take precedence over the pursuit of
war.
There is nothing to
keep us from molding a
recalcitrant status quo with bruised hands until we have fashioned it into
a brotherhood.
A
genuine revolution of values means in the final analysis that our loyalties
must become ecumenical rather than sectional.
Every nation must now
develop an overriding loyalty to mankind as a whole in order to
preserve the best in individual
societies. " - Martin Luther
King
virtue
"In fact, it is a farce to call any being
virtuous whose virtues
do not result from the exercise of its own reason." - Mary Wollstonecraft
"The perfume of
flowers goes not against the
wind, not even the perfume of sandalwood, of rose-bay, or of jasmine; but the
perfume of virtue travels against the wind and reaches unto the ends of the
world." - Dhammapada
"Every performance by which man, contrary to the
impulse of nature, should endeavour the benefit of others, or the conquest of
his own passions, out of a rational ambition of being good."
- Bernard
Mandeville's definition of virtue
virtue
is:
courage
patience
purity of soul
integrity of
character
morality in
sexual relations
doing what is good and
escaping what is evil
virtue is not patience with your jailer !

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 Яeality 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. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate
religi☯us practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their
religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a
system of philºsºphy nªmed the Mŷsterŷ of the
Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery
re☦igion based on reaso🐍 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 cu☮ing the spi☮itual co☮☮uption 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 condones
violence. To the contrary the intent here is to reduce the vi☬lence that
is already occurring due to the internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate
cartels desire to control the human race. The internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the world economic system,
c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the global industrial military
entertainment complex and is responsible for the coλλapse of
moraλs, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal
ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation
with bi☣hazards at the point of a gun.
American social mores and
values have declined precipitously over the last century as the
internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel has garnered more and more
power. This power rests in the ability to deceive the populace in general
through c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal
butt☠ns 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 fami♙y 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 coercion 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.
