DERIVING ESSENCE THROUGH FORMS by byron lebeau

[This philosophy assumes only a LOVING~FORMLESS~GOD~above the physical realms. If you do not believe that this can be so, PERHAPS, you may not yet be fully "SOUND!"]

What makes a sound philosophy? FIRSTLY, one must be "in love" with the pure unadulterated search for truth, assuming nothing but a formless loving essence that pervades all and everything. Without this, all else is meaningless to the purpose of existence. SINCE there can be only one truth - not devisable - but from which all else is derived - there must be a myriad of forms that all point back to that one single formless truth. These FORMS then, are merely conduits, and eventually lose their meaning after they have served their purpose.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
ECH FORM is not an end in itself, so perforce, it follows that the form itself cannot be sacred in itself (indevisable) since it also will pass away. SACREDNESS PASSES NOT AWAY! The logical conclusion that can be stated, IF SOUND, and not built on sand, is to search for a form that will act as a conduit back to the formless.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
BACK TO? It must be a process of BACK TO, since if we were form to begin with, we would PASS AWAY, yet if we were part of the FORMLESS ONE to begin with, we would not pass away, only rejoin with through some process. This is what has been described in holy literature as THE SPIRIT, where THE GREAT SPIRIT is another name for THE FORMLESS ONE, whom I refer to in my writings as THE ETERNAL UNBEGOTTEN. [Therefore, Jesus could rightly say: THE KINGDOM OF GOD (the formless) IS WITHIN YOU (your spirit which allows the divine spark to ignite once it is aware of its ignorance, and starts its search for its true home-being reunited with THE FORMLESS ONE, becoming one again with that which is TRUTH-INDEVISABLE-LOVE!)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
COROLLARY: Jesus would never have come to institute a form, since it would only pass away. He came to show the way to the FORMLESS, since he knew that we also are part of that FORMLESS LOVE, albeit, presently, in ignornace of our true root. Jesus, himself, had borne witness to the fact that he WAS ONE WITH THE FATHER, and wished to help us do the same thing. This is one of only a very few things we can say in relation to a sound philosophy. [MAN HAS A TENDENCY TO TWIST THE FORMLESS INTO FORMS ~ INSTEAD OF THE REVERSE...which is called NATURAL ENTROPY. Jesus did not fall into this trap because he was filled with the dynamic force (empowered) from ABOVE, of which he bore witness to in the New Testamnet; REMEMBER, the key thing that Jesus uttered was that he and the Father were one.(Gospel of John chapter 17.]
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
THIS MAY SEEM LIKE A CHRISTIAN DIVERSION, BUT IT IS NOT:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
AS I wrestled with these very concepts, I came to the logical philosophic conclusion that each religion, NO MATTER HOW SERIOUSLY IT TAKES ITSELF, is only a form - and forms are designed by their very nature - like human flesh and third dimensional reality - to perish! Yet forms can be helpful, as we see in nature, where the skin of a snake (a form) is sloughed-off to form another form, and so forth....THE SKIN IS NOT AN END IN ITSELF, just like a religion is not an end in itself...since the goal of any TRUE RELIGION should be to help mature the immature spirit to become mature, i.e. a spiritual person, where the form is no longer an important thing TO CLING TO!!! Thus religion[s], and the priests who adminster to them, are also forms that eventually must be dispensed with, so that each individual is called upon - eventually - TO BE HIS/HER OWN PRIEST-TO HAVE A DIRECT FORMLESS RELATIONSHIP WITH ITS FORMLESS ROOT! [This is another way of saying that we are striving , as our goal, to become "one with the Father."
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
THEREFORE, NO ONE RELIGION, in & of itself, can contain all truth, since truth is formless and not contained within a form. [This is the reasons why many good people leave churches whose banner becomes INFECTED with its own ego & sense of righteousness which winds up killing and burning people in the name of its own limited "truth." Even in the best situations, TO PERPETUATE ITS OWN FORM at the expense of the congregation.] If this were not so, the FORMLESS ONE would wish all men to be like robots, automatons, to be processed through a manufacturing center, (i.e. rubber-stamped as fit instruments through a FORMED CHURCH, where thinking was not a prerequisite to being a good robot!) I do not think that this was what God had envisioned for ALL MEN, not in the least! FREE WILL is just that, given so we could work out many problems of existence in a creative way, hopefully "in tune" with our divine consciousness (that which is possessed by all sons of God by birth who wish to become sons of God by faith.) This last expression was reflected in a holy work, given divinely to a holy person, and the work is called, THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS the CHRIST.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
IT FOLLOWS LOGICALLY from this, that one must be ready to leave the form BEHIND when ready to engage the FORMLESS (the ESSENCE OF EVERYTHING AND EVERY FORM.) If one were to use pure logic, and look on any particualr religion as "good" - i.e. a proper form in harmony with the DIVINE MIND, [that may, incidentally, have been corrupted by the men within for their own purposes, like ego & greed.]It may be AS THINGS TO GROW OUT OF!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
SINCE THIS is not an easy undertaking, God (the FORMLESS ONE,) must, of necessity, allow a process to accomplish this all-important goal. This process is what many SOUND religions and men of good will have known thoughout the history of life, EVEN ON THIS PLANET!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I AM AS POSITIVE AS I CAN BE that God ~ allowing man free will ~ would not allow for this maturation process to effectuate itself, fully ~ in all aspects of virtue (CLEANSED COMPLETELY & PERFECTLY,) unless he was given full reign to explore, through that same free will its counterpart, IGNORANCE OF THE DIVINE, reflected in its own counterpart, THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS! [They are "deadly" in the sense that they keep us from LIVING WITH GOD! How foolish can one species be?!?]
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
SINCE MAN CANNOT LEARN THE TRUTH BY HIMSELF (since only God is good,) it follows that holy souls who have learned "the good" would act as conduits ~ speaking to man from age to age ~ so a seeker of truth can be shown how to get back to that FORMLESS STATE WITH THE FORMLESS ONE. I believe that this involves an AWAKENING PROCESS (strongly alluded to in THE NAG HAMMADI,) but an awakening of something that was ALREADY THERE, (the spirit within,) that becomes initiated into the process of spiritual growth, perhaps via form, for the purpose of FULL MATURATION OF THAT SAME SPIRIT. Since ALL MEN must be awakened to allow this process to take place, then THE KINGDOM OF GOD, per force, MUST BE within ~ meaning ~ that any soul who wants its indwelling spirit to mature, must provide the means for that same spirit to free itself from its present "constraints" that binds it below (the lower densities.)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
IT SEEMS TO ME that the more one 'RELIES ON' forms to become formless, the more one is ironically inclined to remain in that very form...which I call getting SPIRITUALLY STUCK!!!
>>>>>>>>>
HOW DOES ONE break through that very form (like a chick cracking through with great struggle to get to the new life of 'another' world?) ONE MUST DROP THE FORM (like the skin of a snake,) ~ ANY FORM, like RELIGION or anything else for that matter which impedes its final goal. This, to me, is the key to the essence of becoming fully mature....
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..
HOW THIS PROCESS is achieved, must be left to the intuition of the individual, who is sincerely working with THE HOLY BREATH, whose very function it is, as an intimate part of the Godhead (its thought manifesting in the physical realms.) This matured individual must now be WILLING TO RISK the uncertainty of the LONELY SOJOURN, which it had prepared itself over many lifetimes, via myriad religious forms and myriad experiences as man and woman, learning how to be an integrated spirit, one with the Father. NO ONE FROM FORMS CAN TELL YOU WHEN YOU ARE READY FOR THIS END PROCESS: IT MUST BE FROM WITHIN THAT YOU ARE NOW ABLE TO HEAR THE WHISPERINGS OF THE HOLY BREATH (SPIRIT.)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
EMPTYING ONESELF OF FORMS (the baggage from below,) is a sign that one is seriously ready for this tremendous undertaking ~ TO EMBARK ON THE LONELY SOJOURN, a journey most men could not give a hoot about. You now, no longer rely on your priest or rabbi (analagous to your father and mother,) but now, you learn that the maturity process must be finished ALONE!!!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
THE RESISTANCE FACTOR: no matter what form one grows out of, (probably most types have been sampled in one way or another via REINCARNATION,) one still needs to cut the final "umbilical" chord of the lower dimensions TO TRULY FLY TO HIS/HER GOD (i.e start the process of becoming formless oneself;) I see this as a process of sloughing off one's religion, to be replaced by one's fervant desire to go on the inward spiritual journey! [This is the end process of THE ROBE OF GLORY, by the way.] There will be those who will consider what you are doing as foolish ~ delusional ~ or heretical to their own conceptions of their own limiting religion. This is the entropy factor in action!!! Don't be misled or dissuaded! IT IS A TEST OF YOUR RESOLVE TO FOLLOW YOUR GOD-GIVEN INTUITION TO COMPLETE THE COURSE!!! Since most are not equipped or ready at any given end-age period, as in ~ ONLY A FEW SHALL FIND IT...then it should not be surprising that you will meet with this adversity...which is a form of jealousy in one way or another. [TRUE HUMILITY EVEN OVERCOMES THIS, SINCE THE EGO HAS BEEN EMPTIED OF JEALOUSY & PRIDE & ARROGANCE IN EVERY WAY.]
>>>>>>>>>>>
UNLESS ONE HAS BEEN fully ensconced with unconditional love toward men & beast & creeping thing, one may be unsuccessful in its groping attempt to break the bonds of the lower densities, of which it had been so so accustomed to....Do not despair, even the greatest of men have usually failed many times before they finally succeeded: THE KEY IS TO KEEP TRYING, the very thing that separates a saint from a sinner. You have been already through many lifetimes. You may have many more to go. The choice is really up to your resolve and cooperation with grace, which is the oil from above, which grows in intensity as you cooperate with it, like an ever-ending supply of love, which also is replenished as you use it "up!"
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I BELIEVE, through my studies of many religious forms, that any good person (not a hypocrit in any way, but guileless & innocent,) can, like a little child with a pure heart, regardless of the forms which he or she inhabited, BREAK THROUGH this chord in any given lifetime. The "trick" is to pray often, meditate in a relaxed fashion, and be at peace with yourself and your God and your fellow man. [YOU CANNOT BE AT PEACE IF THERE HAS BEEN ANYTHING LEFT UNDONE!]
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
THE END RESULT: You become one with the Father-God, as Jesus did. This is no longer religion, but rather the spiritual journey coming full circle. It is open to all men under any of life's guises or occupations or challenges. TAKE YOUR PICK! DO NOT GRUMBLE AT YOUR LOT! BREAK FATE BY UNDERSTANDING YOUR TRUE DESTINY!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
THIS IS WHAT I CALL A SOUND PHILOSPHY!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
[COROLLARY]: It follows from all that I have stated, that DIVINE MERCY (emanating from the FORMLESS ONE,) is INDEVISABLE & EVERLASTING, which implies that any "punishment" for our soul's (spirit's) growth, must, per force, BE INFLICTED AND ADMINISTERED BY OURSELVES, as we become more "in tune" with the INDEVISABLE FORMLESS LOVING GOD. If this were not so, Jesus' admonition to loving our enemies, not seven, but seven times seven, (a metaphor for ENDLESSLY,) would have been a mockery ~ if his God & our God did NOT forgive us - LIKEWISE!!!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
A WORD TO THE WISE for those laboring in the constraints of the form of the kingdom of man...The true essence of THE KINGDOM OF GOD is and always will be a very sound philosophy to live by...UNENDING LOVE FOR ITS VERY CREATURES SO THAT THEY WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT GOD ALREADY KNOWS: LOVE IS PEACE AND HE WISHES TO SHARE IT WITH EVERYONE, NOW AND FOREVER.

RECENTLY, I, lebeau, came across an interesting review of the rock group, "CREED" whose lead singer,
Scott Stapp, seems to have his head on "straight" when it comes to the difference between religion and  a higher sense of spirituality; in an interview [sourced via the August 2-4 edition of my local paper, Asbury Park Press, "USA WEEKEND,"} I came across some interesting quotes from Scott....

"CREED" isn't a Christian band, says, Stapp, who has strong views on religion; "Christians around the world distort the true meanign of what Christ said."

STAPP is quoted as saying: "The way I was taught religion, what got lost was love and forgiveness, and what got pushed was condemnation and guilt.  That's where the church loses it. That's why I don't step foot in church."

IN TEACHING HIS SON ABOUT GOD, STAPP SAYS THE FOLLOWING: "God wasn't revealed to me for 17 years of my life.  God was revealed to me when I went away from that [CHURCH] and had my own experiences.  God was revealed to me through humanity and nature and everything that's around us.  That's how I am raising my son.  If he wants to go to church, he can go to church, when he is old enough to make that decision."

[[It seemsd to me that Scott Stapp is learning the difference between ESSENCE and deriving that ESSENCE from the forms that did not quite measure up, but somehow, he kept going until he could see what was really important.]]
