Only God Exists, Nothing Else is Real.

Dog Poet Transmitting.......

The love of the divine surpasses every drive, desire and appetite. Let me rephrase that; the love of the divine should surpass every drive, desire and appetite. If one, through the mirror of the mind, or through the singular passion of the heart can accomplish this, there is no ancillary concern that can be seen or experienced in all the universe that has any importance at all in relation to it.

This is a time of extreme material darkness. The war between the supernal and infernal realms is at a very high pitch for the control of the harvesting of the soul, which is the primary concern of both kingdoms. This is why the size of the population is as great as it is. One might theorize that the presence of the billions, presently incarnate, is the sum total of all the souls that have ever incarnated on this planet since the beginning.

The degree of intensity, manifesting in this singular apocalypse, is extreme; ergo, the potential for exponential soul advancement at this time is extreme to the same degree. One can, with determined focus, disappear the world... as we have stated here numerous time; when the truth takes off its clothes, the world disappears.

Yoga is a medium for the union of the human with the divine. When it is accomplished the human becomes divine. It shares in the awareness of the ineffable. It is the vehicle for the achievement of Godhead. In the beginning there were (as far as I know and remember) 7 main types of yoga; Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga, Jnana Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Mantra Yoga, Tantra Yoga and Hatha Yoga. There are now six and possibly more types of Yoga that have been added to the list. There is Kriya Yoga that came out of the lineage of Babaji. There is Kundalini Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, Iyengar Yoga and Bikram Yoga.

You have a lot of choices in the Hindu Tradition and then there are any number of paths that are present in the other religious traditions. According to me (grin) there is only one choice in this time of extreme material darkness and that is Bhakti Yoga. No doubt there are unique souls in this time who can find their way to liberation and self realization in one of the other choices. I do not recommend this unless you know you are one of those unique individuals.

Love is the most powerful force in this universe. At this time, the forces of chaos, confusion, the variations of material desire and appetite are very powerful. One has only to take a walk through most environments to see the truth of this. Direct and aware experience of life, as well as television, movies, media and sundry are replete with examples of this. Manifest existence is a wheel of fire, which is the burning desire of appetite run wild. Perhaps you possess the strength and virtue to take any one of the other paths and arrive victorious. I cannot.

One of the secret keys to union with the divine is that the ineffable is a slave to Love. The ineffable cannot refuse to come when exposed to the true love of a devotee because God's essential nature is Love. When the love for the divine overwhelms every other drive, you may be sure that the divine will arrive. It is a certainty and that is why Faith, Determination and Certitude are of the most critical qualities that one can possess. Love is unifying. Chaos, Confusion, Disorder and the like are all divisive. The power of material darkness is made manifest in dividing one against themselves and others and most importantly sets one at odds with the divine, whose nature is love and which is THE UNIFYING FORCE.

The attraction for material objects, sexual attraction, the lust for power and position and the like all generate fear; the fear that one will not acquire the object of desire, the fear of the loss of the object of desire and the continuous disappointment in everything that is not the ineffable and which turns the wheel of ones coming and going from one lifetime to the next, until such time as one becomes aware or is made aware of the glorious and eternal splendor of the indwelling deity.

Fear is the whip hand of the enemy. Fear is the atavistic inheritance of those in separation from the divine and its hidden purpose is to drive us in search of the divine (that is the meaning of the pitchfork to goad us), once we have suffered the heartbreak of the impostors. The love of the divine awakens a divine love, which creates a magnetic attraction between the seeker and the creator. The promise of union and the procuration of union then becomes a fait accompli. Genuine love displaces fear and transforms the life into something that defies description. One can experience it but one cannot describe it in the common parlance and that is why the wise are silent on the matter, or seem to speak in riddles. To gain this state is to exist in a priceless rapture of being and it awaits every soul that is inspired to seek it. The single requirement is that the desire to acquire is greater than the attraction for anything else. This is where the value of disappointment comes in. Once the blessing of weltschmerz has occurred you 'can be' on your way, if you have managed to evade the Scylla and Charybdis of Sartre and Derrida.

I could come here for the next thousand years, which is possible because, “we shall not all die but we shall all be changed.” I'm not suggesting anything like that, simply stating that it is certainly possible and there are those moving about on this plane that are older than that. This is not the point of the statement. The point is that I would be saying the same thing and still be incapable of describing what I am trying say. Either one already understands the value of union with the divine or... one is an inmate in the prison of their own confusions. This is materialized by the ego in defense of itself. The ego is incapable of recognizing any authority beyond itself. People will argue about the death of the ego; the need to kill the ego. I don't think you can kill the ego. I think you can master it. I've used the image of a stained glass window, where the true light shines through the personality. I could go into greater detail but it is better for each of us to come to our own conclusions on the matter. I've no interest in contending with advaitists and dualists, both are true from their particular perspectives. Generally, people arguing either one have missed the point.

If I could shake the ground beneath the feet of those whose lives and values are determined by appetite, I would. If I could hammer on the walls of sleep, the cocoon of a self projected world, fighting for survival on Fantasy Island, I would. There is a part of me that understands suffering beyond what this world has provided for me in this life and I know, fundamentally, that there is no joy outside of union with the divine. I also know there is nothing I can say that would transmit how serious a concern this is. Despite the futility of my efforts I cannot cease and desist. It is my nature to do this. Why do birds sing? Why does the predator hunt? Why does the sun shine? Every one of us has an essential nature and a way in which we express or ignore it. For many the very existence of such a thing does not even come to mind.

If something is true it will ring within the consciousness of the one experiencing it. It may be an immediate thing, or it may be a depth charge, or time release ...but ring it will. That is the hope of everyone who has been touched by the author of all things. One thing I have learned that is of great value to me is ones manner of presentation. In this respect I rely on Aesop. I did not start out with this awareness. I had to temper my inner Savonarola.

The truth is that God is real and nothing else is. The whole of manifest existence is a veil. Beyond the darkness of the collective delusion is the light too bright to see and there are intensifying degrees of splendor. Each of them are beyond the reach of words. We have to find the presence of it within ourselves and we surely will if we are determined. I shudder sometimes at the thought of what awaits those who have given no thought to this. I pray that we shall be inspired to this quest. The rewards are past telling. There is nothing in all the worlds of time and outside of time that can compare with the unspeakable bliss that comes to the one who attains to the presence of the lord and no sincere aspirant will fail who does not cease in their pursuit of the elusive one, who hides in plain sight all around and within us.


The ineffable is waiting.

Ego! That's why I'm here. I'd like to flay mine completely, and then soak it in lye.

Greetings Visible,
Individuated - to subjugate the ego and find our true self, our real identity, to surrender the ego to the will of God is a journey to enlightenment.
The extreme materialism present in so many people is truly sad. It amazes me when I think how all the magic in the world goes unnoticed by the majority. The most seemingly simple things are ignored - a seed growing into a flower or a fruit, the sound of the surging sea, the sun light at dawn and at dusk - and so much more - each holding pure magic.
I am really glad each time I read your new posts - and as always . . . thank you Visible and all the best wishes, Love, Lisa

Vis: “Love is unifying. Chaos, Confusion, Disorder and the like are all divisive. ... Fear is the whip hand of the enemy.”

Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Aragorn to his Men, in front of the Black Gate of Mordor:
“Sons of Gondor! Of Rohan! My brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me!
A day may come when the courage of men fails. When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship. But, it is not this day. An hour of woe and shattered shields, when the Age of Men comes crashing down. But, it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you Stand, Men of the West!”

When I was traveling the backwoods of the British Isles, I ran across several closed Gates. These connected to somewhat-higher 'planes'. They were used to colonize Down Here. Higher civilizations sprang forth and flourished for a time. Unfortunately, multiple generations after the Founders, the 'rot' set in. Unseen Baddies sowed Chaos, Confusion, Disorder. Eventually, those Gates were closed from Above. (That is why you see prolific burial mounds around those Gates.)

Some Gates have been temporarily opened to let-out 'older but wiser' souls. Another Gate (or so) has been opened to let-in a brand new batch of higher souls, hopefully 'newer but wiser'. It is a time of change, after some millennia. And best of all, many higher-level Baddies have been Turned. The 'newbies' should have a much easier time of it...

“Then Elrond and Galadriel rode on; for the Third Age was over and the Days of the Rings were passed and an end was come of the story and song of those times.”
~ J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

Best Wishes,

Dear Ineffable, transmitting through our dear Visible,

We thank You for Your Love, given freely from the infinite ecstasy of Your Creation!

You show us all that all of us can true our own wheel, by acknowledging and cooperating with the indwelling deity.

This is where devotion begins...

Overwhelming is the magnitude of the task to true up Creation in the dark clefts where human miscreation has been in full seizure.

Bloom where we are planted is the admonition; love the One you are with, in other words!

When we undertake to banish all thought which is less than Divine, we begin to allow pure power to inhabit our habits and then we can move more freely, seeing the divine in all things.

Before we can love effectively any other being, we must rule our own minds out of the fallen games, heal our own hearts and make love to our own spirits, which are all branches of the One fiery tree of life.

We can remember that any limitation which we impose upon our selves is but self-delusion, a ploy to excuse ourselves from responsibility to act in accordance with the will of the One.

Whatever limitations we discover along the path to liberation, we may transcend by following our inner promptings, nudges from Our intimate lover, to discard the trappings of personality attachment and all associated mental miasmas.

May we all be free to join in praise together, someday far sooner than we believe!

Onespeed all seekers who shall find!

Thank you, Mr Visible for continuing to hammer away at us with the Truth. I need to hear it more often than I would like to admit simply because life is so very distracting. But, I know God and I know He/She knows me. That is the assurance that I get and am so thankful for. Do you remember that old tv commercial that went something like, “When EF Hutton talks, the world listens?” That’s what I feel and experience on a day by day basis: When Laura asks, God answers.” Everyday as I go through life I’ll ask something of God and it never fails! The very next day I get the answer, whether it’s a question or a heart felt request.

For example, my love of animals. I have long since realized (or maybe not that long .... time has a way of becoming a no-thing after you’ve come so far,) I’ll read about the latest planned horror and I bow my head, expose my heart totally to my Creator and ask that it please be halted. Next day, BAM! I read or hear through weird channels that it was stopped. But, you’re so right, Vis, it’s gotta be total surrendering adoring Love for (and from!) the Creator. God requires merely everything you got. And when you’re in the right groove like an LP record the conversation is so instant and so clear. I do so love God with all my heart, soul and mind.

Kindest regards,
Laura
