"Learn from me, if not by my precepts, then by my
example, how is the
pursuit of knowledge and how much
happier is that man who
believes his native town to be
the world than he who aspires to be greater than
his culture will allow." - Mary Wollstonecraft
"Jesus is
important because his solidarity with his brothers and sisters is what
guarantees salvation in the present." - Jon
Sobrino Jesus the Liberator
After spiritual ego
death, one's mortal spiritual corruption has been
sacrificed -
burned in the cleansing
flame. When spiritual ego death occurrs
one's eternal spirit is
cleansed and one's eternal soul is redeemed. The
redemption of the
eternal
soul exists in the
"afterlife," the
life lived after the (not)life lived in
spiritual corruption has
been sacrificed.
Sacrificing the life lived in
spiritual corruption is
sacrificing the living of
life based on the fantasies of the
satisfaction of
life through
materialism. The newly
redeemed uncorrupt and purified
soul has refound its lost innocence and
lives in God/ the
Kingdom of God having ascended
beyond the last judging, having reached
salvation through redemption
joining God in the Garden.
The evidence is certain for this type of spiritual ego death -
immortal life in death.
What evidence
do we have for a literal
eternal
afterlife in heaven?
Biblical scripture lends itself more
to the mystical, "awakening to the
Kingdom of Heaven" approach, with
"death" and "last judgment" interpreted in
the mystically
metaphorical terms of the
mystery religions.
The "mystiry" of the scriptures is set up through
deliberate, playful conflation of literal
death with mystical spiritual ego death.
Mystically we can
awaken to timelessness when we learn to
think of time as
essentially illusory.
This kind of
eternal
afterlife is certain.
Literal
eternal
afterlife is entirely
speculative.
The only evidence for literal
eternal
afterlife is
mystical timeless
rebirth -
spiritual ego death.
Mystical spiritual ego death and
rebirth looms
much larger than the literal
afterlife, which is inherently and
necessarily entirely hypothetical.
The
greatest religious experience is that of
mystic spiritual ego death and rebirth, also
known as seeing God or becoming
enlightened, regenerated,
saved, or redeemed out of the deterministic materialistic
cosmos.
Enlightenment is actually
simple, rational, and
comprehensible.
The fully
developed mind "transcends rationality" in a
specific, mild, restrained sense - mystic insight is essentially comprehensible, simple, summarizable,
paraphrasable and yet the words must be used
metaphorically and analogously as
we have no words that
accuratly and adquately
describe the realm of the dreamtime in
which we transcend our
materialistic interpretation of reality by
transcending
rationality within limits.
Revelation is rational and occurs through an
understanding of newly
created mental
connections that have just come into
existence - connections of which our
subconscious minds had only been dimly
aware.
"Belief" and "faith" are really about surviving
mystic experiencing of spiritual ego death and
rebirth and
transcending a previous
conceptualization of reality - not about gaining a literal
afterlife.
We have ample
reason to believe in
mystical timeless
rebirth after
spiritual ego death; such
transcendent
faith is a necessary part of the
mystic dream,
for life to resume and continue out of the depths of
powerlessness and
spiritual ego death -
to be reborn or born
again.
This sort of afterlife is definitely relevant and
tangible, in contrast to literal
afterlife, which is entirely
conjectural, hypothetical, and speculative,
and lies in the realm of the unknown.
One method of experiencing
mystical timeless
rebirth, of
expanding the breadth and
depth of our consciousness, is
by creating selflessness through the use of
meditative prayer.
Another
method of experiencing
mystical timeless
rebirth, of
expanding the breadth and
depth of our consciousness, is
by creating selflessness through the use of entheogens.
An entheogen, in the strictest sense, is a psychoactive
substance used in a religious or shamanic (or entheogenic) context.
Entheogens generally come from plant sources which contain
molecules closely
related to endogenous neurochemicals.
They occur in
a wide variety of
psychedelics of various religious rites and have been shown to directly
provoke what users perceive as spiritual or
mystical experiences.
In a broader sense, the word
"entheogen" refers to
any molecule which stimulates the central nervous system through one of the
two main neurological pathways: phenethylamine (which is a brain chemical
associated with the adrenaline pathway, and a precursor of mescaline and 2C-B)
and tryptamine (a brain chemical associated with the natural metabolism of
serotonin, a precursor of psilocin, psilocybin, DMT, and LSD).
During
the global paradigm shift in thinking that occurs during entheogenic initiation
the mind's understanding of the concept of
"eternal life" shifts along with the understanding of concepts such as time,
self-control, personal agency and
self-conceptualization.
In experiential allegory, "eternal life" refers to the experience of timelessness, or the discovery of
the existence of
timelessness.
This
is the true mystic meaning of
eternal
life.
"After brooding about it for
several months, I still think my first, astonishing conviction was right - that
on many occasions that afternoon I existed outside time. I don't mean this
metaphorically, but literally. I mean that the essential part of me (the part
that thinks to itself, "This is me") has an existence, quite conscious of
itself, in a timeless order of reality outside the world as we know it. Though
perfectly rational and wide awake I was not experiencing events in the normal
sequence of time." - Christopher Paget Mayhew
After Christopher Paget
Mayhew, a British member of parliament, was given 400mg of mescaline before BBC
TV cameras in 1955 by his friend Dr Humphry Osmond, he became absolutely
convinced that a part of our consciousness exists outside of time. Christopher
Mayhew was tested by Dr Osmond throughout the experiment and showed no
significant loss of intelligence.
Christopher Paget Mayhew received a life peerage and was raised to the House of
Lords as Baron Mayhew.
Panorama: the mescaline experiment
One other method
of of experiencing
mystical timeless
rebirth, of
expanding the breadth and
depth of our consciousness, is
by creating selflessness through the use of ritualized
pain. This ritualized pain can come in many forms and appears in many
religions. Mortification of the flesh or the act of self-flagellation is
practised by some Shia followers of Allah, utilized by many Christian sects
throughout most of Christian history as well as being used in pagan or
"Satanic" rituals. In India the Standing Babas, or Khareshwari, vow never to
sit or lie down in a self-inflicted corporal punishment intended to help bring
spiritual enlightenment.
One final method of
experiencing mystical timeless rebirth, of expanding the
breadth and depth of our
consciousness, is by
creating selflessness through fasting.
Drug
addicts go through something similar as
the fog in their minds clears
when they stop using the drug they have become
addicted to.
The final outcome in all these cases is dependent upon
the guidance one receives before, during and after the
experience of
mystical timeless
rebirth.
Basically
anyone who has not experienced
mystical timeless
rebirth is stuck
in a lower form of consciousness
not having grown out of a entirely materialistic
concept of self.
The
mind that overcomes
delusion and takes a higher perspective
consciously enters Heaven and the
eternal
life now, in this life.
The mature mystic stance is not
to cling to the lower hopes for infinite extension of mundane materialistic
personal existence within time that we all
know so well.
The wish for endlessly
extended personal continuation envisioned as an eternal
afterlife is meant to calm children's
fears.
The
mystic
definition of
salvation and of eternal
life can happen now, were as the literalist
Christian
definition of
salvation you will only find after
death - if then.
By any measure of
value of experiences in life,
surely mystic
enlightenment and
mystic
awakening to the
Kingdom of God/Heaven on Earth while in
this life is the most important
experience in this life.
Enlightenment, redemption, salvation,
awakening, reconciliation
and communion with God all
pivot around the discovery of timelessness in the mystic altered state of
consciousness - shown, revealed and
unveiled by the Holy Spirit during
the uncovering of "hidden knowledge,"
branding the
mystery of existence, with the
fire of
God's compassion, fully
upon the consciousness.
Note: If you use
antidepressants you will never
experience mystical timeless
rebirth because
you must first navigate the emotional maelstrom
of loss of a materialistic
way of conceptualizing life.

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a new religious
ideology 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 the religion
aptly 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 God 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 central banking
system, mass media worldwide, the industrial military entertainment complex of
America 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 mass 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.
