Prologue
I know perfectly well that to say anything against Jesus or Buddha or Krishna hurts you, but I cannot help it. If it hurts, it hurts. And rather than feeling sour about what I say, ponder over it, meditate over it. Because I am not interested in arguing against anybody. I have great love for Jesus, Buddha, Mahavira, Krishna. They were beautiful people, but their days are finished.
We need new insights, new narratives, new dimensions. And those new dimensions are bound to go against our old, stale mind. So when it hurts, remember: it is not the truth that is hurting you -- it is your own untruth that you have been clinging to which hurts. Whenever you have to choose between truth and a lie, be courageous and choose the truth, because that is the only way to live, the only way to know, the only way to be.

Ollin,
and salutations to the truth corps, whoever and wherever you may be on the planet. It's 3 a.m in the morning here on the 30th of august 2021 and I'd like to take a moment to talk to you about something in my book “Not in His image”, which I consider to be of exceptional importance. September 18th is the release date of the 15th anniversary edition and if you intend to order it and you wouldn't mind pre-ordering it, since it's coming out in about three weeks, that would be helpful to me. If Amazon receives 400 pre-orders they put the book into another category, they apply different algorithms to it and that promotes the book. So I'd be grateful if you did that, if you were inclined to use Amazon to purchase this book. Those of you in America can also acquire the book directly from my publisher Chelsea Green. It may also be possible that some of you go into a bookstore now and then. I don't know, does this ever happen anymore? I myself must confess that I haven't gone into a bookstore for many many years. I think the last time I went into a bookstore was in London a long time ago. But if there is a bookstore that you go to and you can physically go in there and order the book through the bookstore, I would prefer that you do that rather than order it through Amazon. Of course, there is a dependence on Amazon for many things in the world today, unfortunately, and if that's the only way you can get it... Well, so be it.
Those of you who have read the original edition will know that I tackle quite a few difficult subjects in my book and I consider one of those subjects to be of particular importance at this moment in human history. I can tell you, it's a subject that I've struggled with and I haven't been totally certified at moments with how I handled it. But, nonetheless, I have done my best to sort out the problem which I define as “The Deceit of Christ”.
What do I mean when I say The Deceit of Christ?
In the 15th anniversary edition I doubled down on that issue. I said quite a lot about it in the original edition, but now I go... I believe I go... I intended to go even more to the core of that issue. So let it be clear at the outset that I am not a big fan of Christ or Jesus Christ or Christianity - I make no bones about that. You know exactly where I'm coming from, from the first moment that you hear me say anything about that topic, or from the first moment that you read about it in my book. And I realize of course that that may be extremely off-putting to some people.
There are untold numbers of people around the world who attach enormous importance to the figure of Christ, the teachings of Jesus the divine human hybrid, of Jesus Christ, the sacrifice of Christ for the salvation of humanity, and yada, yada, yada. And those issues all cluster together in an enormous complex and they are extremely important in the spiritual and religious life of millions upon millions of people around the world. And I make it clear that I stand completely against Christ.
But what do I mean when I say that? On what grounds do I say that? And what on earth do I intend to achieve by taking that position, the position of a heretic?
Well, I'd like to go to the core of the problem. I consider it a problem and at the end of this talk you'll know exactly why. So I can tell you at the outset that The Deceit of Christ has two features, or two faces; one face is a ‘formula of identity’ and the other face or aspect is a ‘formula of ideology’. So, in standing against Christ and whatever Christ represents - that entire constellation, including the so-called teachings of Jesus - I am standing against a formula of identity and a formula of ideology. Clear enough? So let's look first at the formula of identity.
In order to decode and deconstruct the Christ concept you go back to its origins. And its origins can be found in the Old Testament of the Bible and in another form in the New Testament. But when you go and look for Christ in the Old Testament... of course it's not there because the word, the title, the designation Christ, or the anointed, was only introduced in the New Testament. So it raises the question, if in some manner the Old Testament and the New are unity, where do you find Christ in the Old Testament? There are websites on the internet where you can do a Bible search; and you can do it in English and some sites will give you access to 20 or more translations of the Old Testament; you can also look at the Hebrew/English interlinear; you can see the original Hebrew; and you can search that text for the word Christ, and of course you won't find it. But what about the Hebrew word that is equivalent to Christ? You see, Christ is a Greek word from the verb ‘Cain’, which means to anoint. So it's a title, not a name. Christ is the anointed one.
Fine, now that you know that, you know what the designation of Messiah means. It is also a Hebrew word which means anointed. So go to one of those Bible word search sites and put in ‘Messiah’ and search the Old Testament. And guess what! You won't find very much at all, hardly anything at all. In fact, it appears that the Hebrew equivalent of Christ, which is the ‘messiahs’ in Hebrew, whatever the pronunciation, appears to show up for the first time and the only time in two verses of the book of Daniel. That's rather remarkable, isn't it? I mean, if you know anything about the religion of Judaism, you must know that the figure of the Messiah is of paramount importance. And yet, in the Old Testament you hardly find it mentioned. The passages in Daniel are somewhat prophetic. Daniel is a prophetic book in the Old Testament. And what those two passages say, basically, is that there is predicted to be a period of time between the moment when the temple in Jerusalem is reconstructed and the coming of the Messiah. And the word ‘Messiah’ does appear in Hebrew in those two verses, and that's it. This is odd. I mean, just think about this for a moment. It is unquestionable that the figure of the Messiah plays a huge role in Judaism and yet it doesn't appear in the textual evidence of the Old Testament - something to think about. Of course, you may object that there is a translation problem.
Well, as I said, one of the search engines that I use on the internet will give you more than 20 translations of the Old Testament and when you search the word in those 20 translations it doesn't show up except in the passages that I have mentioned here.
I'm not going to go into a long exposition of the figure of the Messiah in Judaism. I’ve done that in “Not in His Image” and you can read all about it. I go right to the origins and I explain how the messianic concept and the messianic identity emerged among the ancient Hebrews, in particular at a moment when the first king of Israel was anointed. The first king of Israel, of the Israelite Nation at that time, was anointed, and therefore was at that time in that setting the Messiah of the Hebrew people. I explained this at great length in “Not in His Image” and I point out the significant fact that in order to know who the Messiah is, who the anointed one is, you need to know who does the anointing.
Now, fast forward to the New Testament. In the New Testament there is absolutely no question about the identity of the Messiah. The word occurs frequently in the New Testament in Greek; so you'll find the Greek word for the Messiah - Christos - which is not a name of a person, it's a title - the Anointed One. So anyone can use these biblical search engines and if you want to be really fancy you can go to Strong's Concordance and there you will find a detailed list of every instance of the word Christos in the New Testament, the variations of the way that it's spelled and the connotations in context of its use. You don't have to be a biblical scholar to do that. On the other hand, someone might say: “Well, if you're not a biblical scholar, and if you are not deeply versed in theology and the history of Christian religion, you have no business poking around like this”. But the fact of the matter is my friends that these are the words that the experts use; these are the words that the priests and bishops and historians of religion use; and no matter how they use them, knowing where these words were originally used, can be of value to you because you can see that no matter how they interpret the word Christos Messiah in the New Testament, you can see exactly what they base their interpretation upon; and then you can think it through for yourself. If you do so, you will come to the obvious conclusion that the New Testament states explicitly that someone called Jesus or Yeshua, born at a certain historical moment in time, agreed to be about 2 000 years ago, is the Christos, is the Messiah. Now, think about that for a moment; you see, it's a formula of identity, isn't it?
There was a man, a living man, a flesh and blood human being, born at a certain time and place, and he had a name in the language of his race. And what was his race by the way? Well, I'll let you investigate that. And in the language of his race ‘Yeshua’ was a man with a name. But he wasn't just any ordinary man as the New Testament tells you. He was the Christ, he was a divine human hybrid - Jesus Christ. When you know that, which anyone of mediocre intelligence can discover, then you know the answer to this question:
Who invented Christ in the first place?
And the answer is in the New Testament in the books of Paul. Paul, the apostle, was formerly known as Saul of Tarsus, but when he was converted he changed his name - this often happens in cult recruitment situations - and he became the famous apostle Paul. And he is really the one who invented the identity of the divine human hybrid, you see. So, it originates somewhere, it didn't just drop out of the sky, didn't just crawl out from under a rock like a cockroach. Someone invented it in a particular time and place with particular intentions. So when I talk about ‘the formula of identity’, that's what I'm talking about. You can go right to the source yourself and you can see where this formula of identity originated.
I realize that my use of that expression, “Who invented Christ?”, could be offensive to some people. But I'm simply being direct and reasonable and if you look at that question for a moment you can easily see that it breaks down into two parts; one part concerns the historical identity of a man living in Palestine 2000 years ago and the other concerns the divine status attributed to that identity. So, most Christians who take the Bible literally, as the revealed word of God, or as an accurate historical record of events in the time of Jesus, believe that there was a man, Yeshua, of a certain tribal or ethnic strain, didn't come out of nowhere, he wasn't neutral, he had a racial ancestry. And they believed that that man was a really special and unique case of all people, of all humans ever born on this planet. But look at that claim for a moment. What does that claim actually ask you to believe? Well, it asks you to believe that Jesus was born of a virgin birth, that he had a human mother, Mary, who was of a racial or ethnic identity, but he really had no human father. The Holy Ghost was his father, some supernatural invisible spirit was his father.
Well, if that's so, and many Christians believe that, then why don't you take the opportunity the next time you talk to a Christian who believes that to ask them: “Well, if that's true of Jesus, is it also true of Thomas?” And they might look at you in a puzzled way and say: “Well, what do you mean, Thomas?” And you could respond by saying: “Well, the New Testament describes clearly that Mary, the mother of Jesus, had other children, so Jesus had brothers. And the New Testament also describes, explicitly, that Jesus was a twin and his twin brother was Thomas”. So how can it be that a virgin birth coming from the womb of a certain woman produces twins, Jesus and Thomas, but only one of them has the status of being the Christ? You've got to wonder how many self-professed Christians on this planet have even asked themselves that question. Do they even know the narrative of the gospels well enough to know that the gospels explicitly say that Thomas was the twin of Jesus?
Funny thing about Christianity when you compare it to Islam. One of the fundamental rules of Islam... by the way, they both derive from the root of the Abrahamic religions which is Judaism. So they're simply different versions of Judaism. But one of the fundamental contrasts, which is also a similarity between Christianity and Islam, is that Islam in the first sentence of the Koran dictates to believers that they must not question anything in the doctrine of Islam. So Muslims are not allowed to question anything in their holy scripture. And Christians who are free to question their holy scripture are often so ignorant about it that they cannot even frame an intelligent question, and that's an intelligent question. How can it be that Mary gave birth to twins, Yeshua and Thomas, but only one of them is the Christ? Well, they might answer it in this way, they might say: “Well, the Christ ‘came upon’ Jesus at the baptism in the Jordan by John the baptist”. Now, that's a fair argument based more or less on the narrative of the New Testament. So the condition of being the Christ, the Messiah, ‘came upon’ Yeshua who was presumably a mortal human being like the rest of us. And at that moment Jesus and Christ united and there you have the Messiah of the apostle Paul who invented that entity; who invented that narrative or worked with those at the time who wrote the New Testament and invented that narrative. So much for the identity of Christ as you can look back in time and look at the origins. And it's not that difficult, you don't have to be Sherlock Holmes or Colombo to work this out.
However, the formula of identity, which I'm calling the divine human hybrid, the Savior, the Messiah, it didn't just end there, did it? No, that's just where it all began, that's just where all the trouble began.
What happened over time was that through indoctrination the Pauline doctrine of the Divine Savior of mankind went into the world, and it was propagated as a religious belief system, a religious ideology. And that took many many centuries and there was a lot of resistance to it, particularly coming from the Gnostics. But not only that, coming from a lot of other pagan European peoples who didn't particularly go for that idea. They didn't see anything in it that they needed, or anything they needed to believe in contained in that identity. But nevertheless it was propagated. It was, as I argue, implanted in the human psyche as ‘malware’. And over time that malware developed the primary algorithm, developed and grew into various iterations and variations. And so it came about when you reach the 20th or 21st century, that the identity of Christ operates in the human psyche as a key to human identity. And that application of the formula of identity was present from the beginning but it took a long time to morph into what it is today.
You see, there are Christians of all kinds of denominations and there are even people who are not Christians who look upon the identity of Christ as something that points to their own inner identity, and they see a mirroring. So they see in Christ, perfect innocence, perfect goodness, and the spark of a divinity. And then in turn they see in themselves what is called ‘The Christ Within’. And so they identify with Christ as a representative of humanity. That, by the way, is the exact quote that was frequently used by Rudolf Steiner. He defined Christ as a representative of humanity. So if you consider yourself to be a member of the human species, then you might identify in some way with Christ. Of course, you don't identify with the alleged original historical being but you take that identity as a mirror of your own identity. Another variation of this trope, this meme, is ‘Christ consciousness’. There are people who are not Christians as such, they may have no interest whatsoever in the Christian religion but they argue very strongly for the notion of Christ consciousness. Doing so they take the identity of Christ to represent a seed of divinity in us all - Christ within.
So what is ‘Christ within’? How would it compare, say, to ‘Superman within’ or ‘Batman within’? If you can have Christ within, can you have these other fictional identities within yourself which in some way show you truly who you are? Those who are fond of this concept of Christ consciousness often point out that the word Christ is simply a term that's interchangeable with other terms such as Buddha or Krsna or the sanskrit word Atman, meaning the self. So, you have the Christ/Buddha/Atman in yourself and it is believed to be the very foundation of yourself. So there is a higher self, there is a divine self according to certain metaphysical propositions which I entirely reject, and you identify that through these terms - Christ/Buddha/Atman.
And what's the takeaway, my friends?
The take away is a belief, a conviction, that in your innermost self you are God or identical with God. It's a God complex. Do you enjoy that god complex? Do you like that idea? Does it give you a kick? Does it give you pleasure to think that we are Gods and that the main reason why we're here, the meaning of life, and the purpose of life, is to discover that we are Gods? Do you enjoy that proposition? Well, that is the proposition that develops on the formula of identity based on Christ or the Christ within.
Now, as a Gnostic I can tell you that I consider that conception of oneself to be totally ridiculous and delusional. It's really easy to conceive or believe or imagine things about yourself. But then, how do you prove that those things are true? For instance, if you embrace the idea that you have Christ within, making you identical with God, and you recognize the Christ within others... then, how do you behave toward others consistent with that belief? And that's all it is, a belief. You see, the Gnostic view - what stands against that - which is the view I hold, is quite simple... you can believe anything you want about your innate divine identity, but how can you prove it? How do you act? Do you go around radiating love to everyone else and recognizing in them, when you look in their eyes, that they have in themselves the same presence of divinity that you have in yourself? Do you really do that? How's that working out for you? I'd really like to know how's that working out for you.
You see, the Gnostics taught, as I do, that there is a spark of divinity in human nature. They called it ‘nous’ and that translates as intelligence. So according to the Gnostic view of the human condition, what is divine about you is not your identity, it's not your subjective sense of who or what you think you are. It's a faculty, it's your intelligence. And that you can prove; you can prove how intelligent you are; but you cannot prove by any action, that you perform, how divine you are. That is one aspect of the deceit of Christ.
I see that I've run to half an hour so far and I've only tackled one of the formulas that I defined at the beginning. So let's say I'll break it off here and I'll pick up the second aspect of the deceit of Christ, which is the formula of ideology, in a follow-up talk. And I think I'll call that talk “The Evil of Universality”.
Nuff said, and i'll be seeing you in the beauty to come.
Sally regards once again to the staff of Nemeta, student teachers in the sacred groves, as well as to guests and visitors to the campus.
This is the main professor recording on the 22nd of June 2019. This is the moment which, as you all know, is generally celebrated as the first day of summer, the day of the summer solstice. In the Gaian calendar that is not the case however. In the converted calendar, which is also known as Marita's calendar, the day of the Solstice is not the first day of summer but it's the peak day of summer ― truly midsummer. So, in Merita's calendar summer begins around the 2nd of May and ends around a 4th or 5th of August. So the Solstice, the 21st of June, is the midpoint between those two points which are traditionally known as the cross-quarter days of the ancient Celtic calendar.
In any case, however you figure it, I’m taken this day is an occasion to make a special presentation to guests and visitors to the campus.
I can tell you at the outset that the material I'm presenting to you today in text and talk is top priority. It's among the most important content. It contains some of the imperative features of the teaching that I present as a Gnostic and as a proponent of Gaian Tantra or Planetary Tantra as well as a proponent of Sophianic Animism.
So here we go, I'm taking a big step today in putting out this material. The title of the text is “Against Universality, The Great Dissent”. So, I'm going to be talking to you about The Great Dissent ― what is The Great Dissent and how you might engage yourself with that event ― because The Great Dissent is an event in progress. I can assure you that this is a momentous undertaking for me. Try to take that statement on-board.
That being so, I know that it's even more a tremendous undertaking for you and it's my intention, which I want you to know at the outset, not to make this matter difficult. It is a difficult matter; it can be an extremely difficult matter, but in starting his talk I would like to make clear my commitment to all of you staff and guests alike. Now, I'm going to do my level best to make this as little difficult as possible. I guess that's about the best way that I could state it.
So, what is so difficult; what is the problem here; what am I going to be tackling in this talk and the accompanying text? Well, quite simply, I'm going to be tackling the problem of how you perceive your own humanity as it relates to how you perceive the humanity of others. You might not think that your perception of yourself as a human being, a member of the human species, and the attendant perception of others who stand before you in the world, whom you recognize as human. You might think that it's not a problem. But I'm telling you: you're wrong about that, you're really really wrong if you think it's not a problem.
So it's my intention to point out to you what that problem is; to point to the correction of the problem; well, to indicate the source of the problem; to describe how the problem originated; and to direct you to the solution to that problem which entails nothing less than an entirely different way to perceive humanity. Not only the humanity in yourself such as that may be, but also as well the humanity in others. So I can assure you that this is some really deep shit we are getting into here, to use the language of the street. And you may wonder why I would choose to put out this material in a public-access talk to visitors and guests of Nemeta.
After all, being such a steep problem, such a momentous and deep problem, you might think that I would reserve discussion of this problem and elucidation of problem and solution for veterans in Planetary Tantra and for those in the staff, the student teachers, who show their commitment to my work by the material and creative participation. But no, it's not like that. You're here because of an interest in Planetary Tantra and no matter what your grasp or comprehension of that may be there's something I want you to know at the outset. Practice of Planetary Tantra not only involves but requires a total revamping of your sense of humanity and this is where it starts.
I want to advise you that this talk and text together are just the introduction to the subject. But I've decided today that I am going to bring this subject in its full elaboration to everyone on Nemeta and not reserve it simply for veterans or people on the staff. It is primary to your participation in Planetary Tantra that you should comprehend and face this problem about the perception of humanity. In order to prime you for that comprehension I'm going to give you the leading clue going on. Before I say anything else, before I go into the text in any way let me give you the leading clue which is really... which tells you, really, what you will have as the takeaway of this instruction, this particular and unique instruction.
So it goes like this: Whether you know it or not you have been taught to perceive humanity in a certain way and that way of perceiving humanity is so common to you that you don't question it; that you assume that it could not be otherwise.
It's as if when you were born someone placed a pair of glasses on you, like Google glasses. So you're a newborn child and somebody straps a pair of Google glasses on you and then you grow and you get older and you get to be four or five years old or ten or twenty years old and you never know what it might be like not to have those glasses strapped to your head. What I'm going to tell you beginning in this talk and in a couple of follow-up talks is about how you have been subjected to a tactic of deceit. The way you see the humanity in yourself and the way you see humanity or think you see it, when you look at another human animal, is due to a tactic of deceit and it's my attention to expose this tactic of deceit.
So, if I'm successful you will then have an option which will be quite simply: “Oh, well, there's another way of looking at humanity. Well, I think I'll consider it because I realize from what John said that the way I've been told to view humanity is wrong”. You'll have that option. Secondarily, it's my wish that as a consequence of this particular line of Gnostic instruction that you will see, as I do, and that some others around me already see: The total and complete imperative necessity for the collapse of Christianity. So there you have it. And on that happy note let us proceed into the written material.
At the top of the text is a photograph, one of many many thousands, that have been taken to various apertures, through various telescopic and photographic techniques, of the interior of the Orion Nebula. At the interior of this nebula is a tight formation of stars known as the Trapezium. So the nebula itself is called M42, the Orion nebula, and the trapezium is this configuration of stars which you see there in the form of a trapezoid or trapezium, extremely famous in the realms of a astronomy. You can go research it on the internet; you'll find volumes of photographs and volumes of articles that have been written about this locale. But what you will not find in any of those articles is what you find in the Sophianic narrative, “The Fallen Goddess Scenario”.
According to that narrative the genomic plasm of the Anthropine species from which all strains of the human species emerge is embedded in the trapezium. It actually hangs in the trapezium like a hammock. The trapezium may be imagined as a kind of cradle. The four most prominent bright stars of the trapezium plus dozens of others present a structure upon which the Anthropine genome is deposited like dew on a spider's web. And that is exactly how it looks and that is exactly the analogy you can use to visualize this phenomenon.
You know, in my elaboration of the sacred narrative of the Mysteries of The Fallen Goddess Scenario I've been extremely careful to point out those aspects of the scenario which I draw directly from surviving sources and I cite those sources meticulously. We can call that first-degree material. Second-degree material I specify as elaborations or extrapolations based upon the sources ― you get that difference? Not directly or literally found in the sources but extrapolated from the sources, with great care I must add. And then there is a third degree of material in the FGS and that is novel or accessory material which I have actually added. So I have added to the narrative inherited from the Magi, the Magian Order, the Gnostic schools.
Concerning the pathology of our planet and the origins of the human species I have added to that material the detail that the Anthropine genome is deposited in M42, the Orion nebula. I do that quite simply on the basis of my investigations as a shaman. Well, my investigations as a shaman are exactly the same as the shamanic investigations of the teleste who initially developed the Fallen Goddess Scenario. So, even though I may here and there, very rarely, add a new element as I've done here, I do so consistent with the method in which the narrative was developed in the first place. Clear enough?
All right, so I've said my little introduction, a little longer than I would like it to have been. But this topic is all about how you perceive humanity. For those who take an interest in the Fallen Goddess Scenario, who is at the core of Planetary Tantra, might also take a clue for their perception of humanity from the Petelia amulet. I've cited this amulet and a number of other units on Nemeta. It contains among others three lines: the lines are stated in the first person “I” that indicates that they represent the confession or declaration of someone who has undergone initiation. In the lines preserved on the tablet, which is a thin leaf of beaten gold inscribed with writing, the neophyte testifies to the experience of initiation in this way:
“I am a child of earth and starry heaven,
but my origins are in heaven alone.
You yourselves know this.”
So, with those three simple lines you already have a basis for the perception of the humanity in yourself and in others. You have literally a basis to perceive the origins of humanity which are in heaven alone. And when you look at the Orion nebula which you can see with the naked eye, although you can't see the trapezium itself, but when you look toward that blur in the sky located on the right thigh of the figure of Orion who is inarguably the most widely known and recognized celestial constellation of all, you are actually looking at the location of your origins.
So, moving on in the text I bring up as a point of departure a most hideous citation from the mainstream media and there you'll see that I've linked a six-minute clip and I've extracted in audio about 40 seconds from that clip. In those 40 seconds you hear a hideous creature in the USSA government making a statement. She is objecting to the fact that the president of the United States referred to certain people as animals. Of course, in Gaian Tantric cosmology and in Planetary Tantra we consider ourselves as animals. So from our viewpoint this is not an insult. We obviously have a completely different concept of animals than ordinary people do. But as you would all know, to call someone an animal in a routine and mundane way is to insult them and place them in a derogatory or inferior or undesirable status compared to a human being. So the president of the United States used ‘animal’ as an insulting and degrading term in referring to some members of the well-known Mexican gang M13 who have been known from time to time to commit some pretty brutal and sadistic acts. But this creature from the House of Congress in the United States really protested and she stated her view that it was really unacceptable for the president to call these Mexican gang members animals just because they butchered a couple of teenage girls alive with machetes. And they've done far worse than that. And she stated her protest in the language of the strictly judeo-christian view of humanity. And you listen to her words there for 40 seconds. You know: “We are all God's children and there is a spark of divinity in everyone. And how can it be, does the president not believe in the dignity and worth of every person?” Because if you do, then you would see humanity in these M13 gang members and you would respect the dignity and worth of those gang members based on your perception of the humanity and the essence of humanity that resides in them as it resides in you. So how do you like that proposition? How would you like to go along with that?
If you stood right now on the street in front of one of those members, tattooed members of the M13 gang, and looked him in the eyes. Are you going to see in him the same humanity that you see in yourself, or do you feel obligated to? Well, according to Nancy Pelosi you damn well do feel obligated to and if you don't show that you hold this way of perceiving, then you are inhumane and there is something less than human about you. All of that, all of that enforcement; it really is an enforcement. Let me put it in this way: the implicit enforcement in the obligation to view humanity in that way is fundamental to the judeo-christian view of the human species and it is just that view that has to be broken. That view is actually an evil spell that has been cast upon you that prevents you from having another kind of perception of humanity. So if you are willing to accept that a false sense of humanity and a false perception of humanity has been imposed on you, then you may be willing to consider that there is another way to look at humanity and that's where I'm going in these talks.
So the next section is titled “Spark of Divinity” and there I cover some really important points about this concept that all human beings have a spark of divinity in them. And I go into the background of this concept and I show that as a matter of fact the Gnostics were wrongly accused of holding the view that we are sparks of divinity who have lost ourselves in the darkness and evil of material existence. That is not a genuine Gnostic view, although it is widely and almost unanimously considered to be one. Those of you who are listening now and let's say who have read “Not in His image” will know that I've taken considerable effort to refute this view. Routinely scholars call it the anti-cosmism of the Gnostics; anti-cosmic: the claim that Gnostics rejected the material world, the claim that they considered it to be the creation of an inferior or satanic deity. It's entirely wrong and I've corrected it in a number of ways on a number of occasions. So what I do here in this text is simply reiterate a couple of the main points of my refutation. For instance, you will find in the Nag Hammadi materials, which are written in a Greek/Coptic melange, that there is a distinction between use of the word ‘cosmos’ and the use of the word Kaz. And Kaz is the Coptic variant of the Greek Gaia or GE meaning the earth. Well, those texts, if you read them meticulously, distinguish the earth from the cosmos or the system. So for Gnostics the word cosmos, which is best translated as ‘system’ in this sense, was something negative and more comparable to the ‘matrix’. According to the Gnostics we live on the earth Kaz ― Gaia ― which is the body of the Aeon Sophia in material imminence and that is not a prison, that is not a delusion, that is not a matrix. But there is a system of deceit imposed upon us within this natural world we inhabit. So the natural world is not evil but the system of deceit imposed upon us directs us away from the truth and to that extent it can be considered to be evil, that is to say working against life. So there you go. There are many ways to state this proposition and I've talked about it many many times in my interviews on the internet and so forth.
The spark of divinity lost in the murk and darkness of the material world is, when you actually examine that paradigm and go looking for the cultural and textual roots, a teaching of Talmudic Judaism and the Kabbalah. As a matter of fact I put “spark of divinity” into the search engine and clicked on ‘images’. And the first image that came up is a painting ― which I reproduce here ― on the site chabad.org. Chabad.org is a platform for the theology and ideology and dogma of Chabad Lubavitch, which is the leading Talmudic sect in the world. Chabad Lubavitch is also an extremely potent political and financial influence in the world. As a matter of fact the Yahudi concept of correction which is called Tikkun olam is based on this narrative that there are parts of divinity who have fallen away from unity in the Godhead; fallen into material darkness and need to be recovered; collected out of the darkness and restored to unity in the Godhead. That in a sentence is the basic theological proposition of Chabad Lubavitch and of Talmudic Judaism. Now, it remains to be seen if these “sparks of divinity” are descriptions of some divine essence, immaterial spiritual essence, that abides in all human animals or if it only abides in certain human animals who are of a superior status in the species or may even belong to a higher species than what we commonly recognize as human.
So there you go, and from that topic I segway back to the topic of the Orion nebula. I do so because I want all to be perfectly clear on where you come from. You know, you don't have to imagine where you come from; you don't have to think about it; you don't have to speculate; don't have to make believe; you don't have to make up some story; you don't have to attribute where you as a living human creature come from to some kind of fantasy that you concoct or someone else has concocted in the Urantia book for instance; or in Blavatsky’s secret doctrine. No, all you have to do is go out at the right time of the year and look at the sky. Many many people around the world, even though they don't exactly know what they're seeing, recognize the form of the constellation of Orion; the Skywalker as the Egyptians called him, or as they are thought to have named that constellation ― Asar I believe ― my Egyptian is little rusty these days. Skywalker, you see this mammoth figure walking across the sky with characteristic belt and there, hanging down on the right side of the figure, you see this blotch which is the Orion nebula. That's where you come from.
Everything is material. I know there are some of you by now ― I suspect, I don't say I know, it's been arrogant. I suspect there are some of you by now who get a bit of a thrill every time I say that. Everything is material; the human genome is a material plasm consisting of a nucleic acid substrate which is a fluidic medium distributed across the stars of the trapezium in the Orion nebula. And that is such, that is a fact. It is an inarguable fact and it's not make-believe and it's not a hypothesis.
So, how wonderful it is that if you want to see the origin of your own material being you can go out in the sky and look at it. And do look at it, do contemplate that beautiful vision on some occasion, on every occasion when you have the opportunity. You'll see what it does to you to look in that direction and know what you are seeing.
Now, proceeding with the written text following my comment on the Orion nebula with these illustrations, I introduce the acronym TAD and I propose to use this word to replace the word ‘people’. For some time now I've been... I won’t say uncomfortable, but I don't really enjoy the word ‘people’. It always makes me think of People Magazine and I see myself standing in the supermarket checkout line with a can of tuna and a quart of milk looking at the latest issue of People Magazine, people, people, the peeps. I really don't like this word. When you talk about the dignity and worth of the human person, to me the word ‘people’ does not convey that. So I came up with this abbreviation TAD which stands for Tertiary Anthropine Derivative, which is pretty fancy you gotta admit. I mean, it's a fine day of the week when you can invent something like that. As a matter of fact, it's quite precise Gnostic language: Tertiary Anthropine Derivative. Anthropine refers of course to the Anthropos, the Anthropine species.
Are you materially right now as an individual specimen, as a human animal, a single human animal standing on two feet with two arms and a head like all the other human animals unless they're born in a mutilated condition, are you the embodiment of the Anthropine genome that is suspended maturely in the Orion nebula? Well, Yes and No. You are a derivative of it but you are not a pure embodiment of it.
Think of raw milk. Suppose that you never knew that raw milk existed and that it came from cows. Suppose you only knew that milk was the beverage you buy in the supermarket. There are people by the way who are in this condition, I can assure you. So there's milk that you buy in the supermarket. So you come home with a carton of milk. And let's say you decided to try something new and you saw “Oh, chocolate milk”. You come home with a carton of chocolate milk; you open it; you pore out a glass and you drink it; and what are you tasting? You're tasting pasteurized milk, probably milk that has been subjected to UHT ― ultra high temperature ― for preservation and it has chocolate added to it. So, that milk is a derivative of raw milk but you might not even know that raw milk exists. You have never encountered raw milk.
Likewise, you have never encountered a direct explicit incarnation of the Anthropine genome. You yourself are not that. You are a derivative; you are a racial derivative; you're a TAD, a Tertiary Anthropine Derivative. Why tertiary? Well, I explained in the text that the first condition of the Anthropos is its condition within the Pleromic core. The Fallen Goddess Scenario says that the human genome was designed... it says that two Aeons, Sophia and Thelete, designed and calibrated the human genome in the Galactic core. So the first time that the human genome was actually formed, it existed in the galactic core. Yes, there is nucleic acid in the galactic core. It's not exactly the same as the nucleic acid which appears outside the core but it is the same substance.
Okay, so that's the first degree of the genome ― nucleic acid in the core. Second degree of the Anthropine genome is the nucleic acid outside the core. The great film in the form of dew on the spider’s web of nucleic acid deposited in M42, that's the second degree or the second derivative condition. Then, how does it happen that that genome in the Orion nebula comes to propagate itself in planetary systems? Well, the propagules of the genome, which are like freeze-dried granules of coffee, if you will ― granules of freeze-dried coffee ― these propagules... they turn into propagules once they are drawn out of the nebula on fine filaments of plasmic electrical currents. And these filaments of plasmic electrical currents run through the entire region of the galactic arms. And the propagules of the Anthropos carried on these filaments eventually, sooner or later by chance, find an hospitable planetary environment because there are many many planets in the Galactic limbs. I'm talking about just our galaxy alone, the Orion galaxy as it's called. And so they drop into the atmosphere as flakes or grains and they fertilize, they become fertilized by the conditions of the atmosphere, and this is how human beings emerge in the environment of a planetary laboratory and that is the third condition. Tertiary.
So, let me be the one to break the news to you. You're a TAD; I'm a TAD; everybody's a TAD; people are TADs. And I'm going to practice calling people TADs and using that word instead of ‘people’ saying: “Well, sometimes this and sometimes that and that TAD sitting over there in the corner sucking on a beer”. It might have occurred to you that this particular (ha ha) term, this particular way of speaking of people, has the illusion, the allusion to tadpoles. And isn't it true that the male sperm that fertilize the ovum and produce, or reproduce human species by what is called meiosis look exactly like tadpoles. So every one of you TADs, including myself, is here because a spermatic tadpole managed to burrow its way into one of the ova where the eggs was sliding down the channel of the fallopian tubes of a woman. And that's just the plain facts of the case.
Now, you'll note in the text that I make a point; I've already made it before; I'm going to continue to emphasize... bear with me if I get repetitive; some things bear repeating. You are a derivative of the human species appearing in a racial strain. No one embodies or can embody the genomic root identity itself. You see that? That is a material fact. No one can embody the genomic root identity. You can only embody a derivative of racial strain of that identity. Everything is material and what is true for the material is true for everything else as well. What is true for the material is true for the ethical, the ideological, and the psychological. If it is true for the material that no human being, born of a woman due to the unity of sperm and ovum, can embody the genomic root identity; if that is materially true, biologically true, then it is also true that there can be no truthful image of the Anthropos as a genomic identity. Nevertheless, you have lived all your life with that image, haven't you? There is an image, unique in the world, an image of a man, a male member of the human species who is said to embody the genomic root identity, and that image of Jesus or of Jesus/Christ, the human divine hybrid, is a hateful deceit. It's not just a deceit, it's not just a lie, it's a hateful deceit that has been planted in the mind of the human races by a race that sets itself apart and hates them all. As I've said before, and I can only try to say it again as cogently and eloquently as possible... as I've said before in the form of a question: “If you receive the image of your own humanity from a group that places itself outside humanity and hates you, what could possibly go wrong?” What could possibly arise that would harm you and defeat you in your humanity if you derive your image of humanity in that way from that source?
And I want you to be absolutely sure of one thing; if you do not take away anything else from this talk ― you, every single one of you, and I'm speaking to you now each to each individually ― you need to realize that your image of humanity, your sense of humanity and your ability to perceive humanity when you look at other people and when you look into yourself, has been given to you. It is not your own product, it is not the product of your own heart or your own sensibility or the powers of your own imagination.
But hold on, there is a way of perceiving humanity materially that can be all that. There is a way of perceiving and sensing humanity in yourself and others that can be your own product. But you can only achieve that on the other side of The Great Dissent. This challenge requires that you overthrow and reject entirely the view of humanity that has been given to you. You must recognize WHO gave it to you. The source of it is no mystery, the source of it is not something to speculate about. Everybody knows who gave to the human races their universalist sense of humanity, everybody knows that, and that is what you must reject, the sense and image of humanity coming from that source. The Great Dissent, as you might say, a negative and a positive aspect; it has a rejecting or defiant aspect; it is an act of defiance, but it also has an affirmative aspect. First, in The Great Dissent, you defy and deny and reject the sense and image of humanity that has been given to you. And then, in the affirmative aspect of this event, of this great great undertaking, you find a sense and image of humanity that comes as your own product. It's yours, because you make it yourself, because you fabricated it out of the very material of your own soul and psyche, out of your intellect and imagination. It is your own creation, it is your own project and not something that you received from an alien source.
So, if you are with me so far, and this is a steep steep haul ― I think you can see that by now. If you are with me so far; we'll just go into the homestretch; I'll skim quickly over the remainder of the text. You'll note there that I bring up the issue of eugenics. I discussed the term ‘salutary respect’ which occurs in this remarkable citation from a book by the historian Arnold Toynbee and Daisaku Ikeda who apparently was a Japanese intellectual... remarkable citation. And in that passage, that comes under the subheading of human dignity, I point out that both Christianity and Communism are firmly based on this concept of universal humanity which has been given to you. I know of no other citation in all my work, all my studies in research, that is as clear as the one I present here. But what Toynbee and his collaborator say is so important; Communism is an outcome of Christianity, of course it is; and Communism is an outcome of Talmudic Judaism, of course it is; and the concept of the proletariat, the Internationale ― no, that's a cliché, it's a meme from Communism. What is the Internationale? Well, it's the group of the mass of people who can be all lumped together, no matter what country, what origin, what race they come from, what culture they were brought up in, they can all be massed together as an international or corporate body. And they are the oppressed, and Communism claims to fight for the liberation of the oppressed and to bring justice to the oppressed. And that whole ideology and agenda crumbles before your eyes when the props of universality is removed. This concept... it's not only a concept, but it's a sense and it's an iconic image, all in one. That complex of universality props up Communism and it comes from Christianity, it comes out of the judeo-christian belief system and the Abrahamic religions.
How does Islam factor into this equation? Well, I'll just give you a wild guess. Since Islam means submission, then everyone who submits and becomes a Muslim belongs to the same faceless corporate mass of humanity. So when one Muslim looks at another through the eyes of a Muslim, a follower of Islam, that Muslim sees a reflection of his or her own humanity in the face of the other Muslim. Can you see that? But what they see is an illusion and a lie. It’s as if there is some real entity or agency, as if there is some true and genuine presence existing in that faceless recognition, the recognition of 1,6 billion faceless zombies for one another. That's the universality of Islam. It's the same scam, it's the same lie, it's the same hateful deceit. The Abrahamic religions all have the same root and that is the archontic deceit of the Zaddikim.
Coming around to the conclusion of the text, there are just 2 more points I would like to highlight. First point I might give you in the form of recitation. It's only one short sentence and you can certainly memorize it if I may be so bold to say so. It could be one of the more important things you ever learn in your entire life and it goes like this: “The Anthropos is purely imaginal, extra-biological. Races are existential, biologically real.” Two sentences actually. Can you handle two sentences? Now, you may have a question about my use of the term ‘extra-biological’ or exo-biological. There is actually the word ‘exobiology’; it refers, I believe, to the existence of biological creatures and entities outside the atmosphere of the earth ― exobiology. Is the Anthropos exo-biological? Absolutely, purely on material terms. It is a plasm. It is a gently throbbing ― well, gently on a scale of millions of light years ― a gently throbbing membrane of a biological plasm deposited extra-terrestrially. So it is exo-biological, but it's still biological, it's still material. The Anthropos is purely imaginal, exo-biological, but races are existential, biologically real. There, I made it into one sentence for you. Is that easier? I want to make it easy, believe me I do, and I've got to warn you that what's coming in the continuity of this talk, what's coming in the completion of this topic is a game-changer like nothing you've ever seen before. It's brewing, brewing like a storm. It's getting strong. And when it breaks like a thunderhead I'll be there to tell you what's happening and to read the weather.
I'm not just going to read this for the staff. I'm going to read this for everyone who comes into PT. Why do you come into PT? Why are you interested? Why are you here? Why did you sign up for Nemeta to be a guest and a member? You want to know who you really are? You want to know what you're really looking at when you walk down the street and you look at other human beings streaming towards you on the sidewalk? Do you want to know what you're really looking at? Do you want to know what to look at? What to look at, that's an instruction. You've never been told what to look at when you cast your eyes and cast your gaze over your fellow human beings, all those other TADs, all those TADs out there on the street. The reality of it is: you have been told what to see in humanity, but you have not been taught how to see humanity. So who is going to teach you how to see humanity? Well, that's an assignment that's bound to be rather unique, obviously. And so it goes to you a unique entity. But, actually, it goes to you a unique process.
So the Maitreya can teach you how to see humanity, how to perceive it and how to perceive the racial strains of humanity and to know the distinction. But the Maitreya only does that by engaging you in a process of which you are also the source. You cannot undertake the process without becoming yourself a source for the process. This is how deep it runs as the discourse now takes us in the direction of this great great question, of this great challenge, The Great Dissent.
Finally, I close on a text with an image, probably one of the top five religious images in the world, which is the sculpture known as the Pieta of Michelangelo. So there you have Mary, the Virgin Mary, the mother of the human divine hybrid who is said to embody the perfection and essence of humanity in a way that no other human being can. And there he is limp and dead, a corpse in the laps of his mother. And you are supposed to celebrate this image, not only as the picture or icon of your own humanity, but as that which gives you the sense of that humanity. Do you have a sense of your humanity when you look at this limp dead corpse, a victim of torture? Is that were you get your sense of humanity, from a tortured corpse? Well, many people do and that is a fucking inarguable fact, isn't it? Just savor it for a moment. This is how far it's gone. This is how bad it's gone and how rotten it's gone. And people like Nancy Pelosi, and there are millions and millions of them, are operating in righteousness out of a sense of humanity that has gone totally rotten, as rotten as any fruit or any piece of meat that ever came under your nose.
Welcome to Kali Yuga!...
...the time of the most extreme decadence of degradation of humanity, but also the moment of spectacular and unparalleled realizations which are sudden realizations, sudden and immediate realizations.
This is the main professor recording on the 22nd of June 2019. This is the moment which, as you all know, is generally celebrated as the first day of summer, the day of the summer solstice. In the Gaian calendar that is not the case however. In the converted calendar, which is also known as Marita's calendar, the day of the Solstice is not the first day of summer but it's the peak day of summer ― truly midsummer. So, in Merita's calendar summer begins around the 2nd of May and ends around a 4th or 5th of August. So the Solstice, the 21st of June, is the midpoint between those two points which are traditionally known as the cross-quarter days of the ancient Celtic calendar.
In any case, however you figure it, I’m taken this day is an occasion to make a special presentation to guests and visitors to the campus.
I can tell you at the outset that the material I'm presenting to you today in text and talk is top priority. It's among the most important content. It contains some of the imperative features of the teaching that I present as a Gnostic and as a proponent of Gaian Tantra or Planetary Tantra as well as a proponent of Sophianic Animism.
So here we go, I'm taking a big step today in putting out this material. The title of the text is “Against Universality, The Great Dissent”. So, I'm going to be talking to you about The Great Dissent ― what is The Great Dissent and how you might engage yourself with that event ― because The Great Dissent is an event in progress. I can assure you that this is a momentous undertaking for me. Try to take that statement on-board.
That being so, I know that it's even more a tremendous undertaking for you and it's my intention, which I want you to know at the outset, not to make this matter difficult. It is a difficult matter; it can be an extremely difficult matter, but in starting his talk I would like to make clear my commitment to all of you staff and guests alike. Now, I'm going to do my level best to make this as little difficult as possible. I guess that's about the best way that I could state it.
So, what is so difficult; what is the problem here; what am I going to be tackling in this talk and the accompanying text? Well, quite simply, I'm going to be tackling the problem of how you perceive your own humanity as it relates to how you perceive the humanity of others. You might not think that your perception of yourself as a human being, a member of the human species, and the attendant perception of others who stand before you in the world, whom you recognize as human. You might think that it's not a problem. But I'm telling you: you're wrong about that, you're really really wrong if you think it's not a problem.
So it's my intention to point out to you what that problem is; to point to the correction of the problem; well, to indicate the source of the problem; to describe how the problem originated; and to direct you to the solution to that problem which entails nothing less than an entirely different way to perceive humanity. Not only the humanity in yourself such as that may be, but also as well the humanity in others. So I can assure you that this is some really deep shit we are getting into here, to use the language of the street. And you may wonder why I would choose to put out this material in a public-access talk to visitors and guests of Nemeta.
After all, being such a steep problem, such a momentous and deep problem, you might think that I would reserve discussion of this problem and elucidation of problem and solution for veterans in Planetary Tantra and for those in the staff, the student teachers, who show their commitment to my work by the material and creative participation. But no, it's not like that. You're here because of an interest in Planetary Tantra and no matter what your grasp or comprehension of that may be there's something I want you to know at the outset. Practice of Planetary Tantra not only involves but requires a total revamping of your sense of humanity and this is where it starts.
I want to advise you that this talk and text together are just the introduction to the subject. But I've decided today that I am going to bring this subject in its full elaboration to everyone on Nemeta and not reserve it simply for veterans or people on the staff. It is primary to your participation in Planetary Tantra that you should comprehend and face this problem about the perception of humanity. In order to prime you for that comprehension I'm going to give you the leading clue going on. Before I say anything else, before I go into the text in any way let me give you the leading clue which is really... which tells you, really, what you will have as the takeaway of this instruction, this particular and unique instruction.
So it goes like this: Whether you know it or not you have been taught to perceive humanity in a certain way and that way of perceiving humanity is so common to you that you don't question it; that you assume that it could not be otherwise.
It's as if when you were born someone placed a pair of glasses on you, like Google glasses. So you're a newborn child and somebody straps a pair of Google glasses on you and then you grow and you get older and you get to be four or five years old or ten or twenty years old and you never know what it might be like not to have those glasses strapped to your head. What I'm going to tell you beginning in this talk and in a couple of follow-up talks is about how you have been subjected to a tactic of deceit. The way you see the humanity in yourself and the way you see humanity or think you see it, when you look at another human animal, is due to a tactic of deceit and it's my attention to expose this tactic of deceit.
So, if I'm successful you will then have an option which will be quite simply: “Oh, well, there's another way of looking at humanity. Well, I think I'll consider it because I realize from what John said that the way I've been told to view humanity is wrong”. You'll have that option. Secondarily, it's my wish that as a consequence of this particular line of Gnostic instruction that you will see, as I do, and that some others around me already see: The total and complete imperative necessity for the collapse of Christianity. So there you have it. And on that happy note let us proceed into the written material.
At the top of the text is a photograph, one of many many thousands, that have been taken to various apertures, through various telescopic and photographic techniques, of the interior of the Orion Nebula. At the interior of this nebula is a tight formation of stars known as the Trapezium. So the nebula itself is called M42, the Orion nebula, and the trapezium is this configuration of stars which you see there in the form of a trapezoid or trapezium, extremely famous in the realms of a astronomy. You can go research it on the internet; you'll find volumes of photographs and volumes of articles that have been written about this locale. But what you will not find in any of those articles is what you find in the Sophianic narrative, “The Fallen Goddess Scenario”.
According to that narrative the genomic plasm of the Anthropine species from which all strains of the human species emerge is embedded in the trapezium. It actually hangs in the trapezium like a hammock. The trapezium may be imagined as a kind of cradle. The four most prominent bright stars of the trapezium plus dozens of others present a structure upon which the Anthropine genome is deposited like dew on a spider's web. And that is exactly how it looks and that is exactly the analogy you can use to visualize this phenomenon.
You know, in my elaboration of the sacred narrative of the Mysteries of The Fallen Goddess Scenario I've been extremely careful to point out those aspects of the scenario which I draw directly from surviving sources and I cite those sources meticulously. We can call that first-degree material. Second-degree material I specify as elaborations or extrapolations based upon the sources ― you get that difference? Not directly or literally found in the sources but extrapolated from the sources, with great care I must add. And then there is a third degree of material in the FGS and that is novel or accessory material which I have actually added. So I have added to the narrative inherited from the Magi, the Magian Order, the Gnostic schools.
Concerning the pathology of our planet and the origins of the human species I have added to that material the detail that the Anthropine genome is deposited in M42, the Orion nebula. I do that quite simply on the basis of my investigations as a shaman. Well, my investigations as a shaman are exactly the same as the shamanic investigations of the teleste who initially developed the Fallen Goddess Scenario. So, even though I may here and there, very rarely, add a new element as I've done here, I do so consistent with the method in which the narrative was developed in the first place. Clear enough?
All right, so I've said my little introduction, a little longer than I would like it to have been. But this topic is all about how you perceive humanity. For those who take an interest in the Fallen Goddess Scenario, who is at the core of Planetary Tantra, might also take a clue for their perception of humanity from the Petelia amulet. I've cited this amulet and a number of other units on Nemeta. It contains among others three lines: the lines are stated in the first person “I” that indicates that they represent the confession or declaration of someone who has undergone initiation. In the lines preserved on the tablet, which is a thin leaf of beaten gold inscribed with writing, the neophyte testifies to the experience of initiation in this way:
“I am a child of earth and starry heaven,
but my origins are in heaven alone.
You yourselves know this.”
So, with those three simple lines you already have a basis for the perception of the humanity in yourself and in others. You have literally a basis to perceive the origins of humanity which are in heaven alone. And when you look at the Orion nebula which you can see with the naked eye, although you can't see the trapezium itself, but when you look toward that blur in the sky located on the right thigh of the figure of Orion who is inarguably the most widely known and recognized celestial constellation of all, you are actually looking at the location of your origins.
So, moving on in the text I bring up as a point of departure a most hideous citation from the mainstream media and there you'll see that I've linked a six-minute clip and I've extracted in audio about 40 seconds from that clip. In those 40 seconds you hear a hideous creature in the USSA government making a statement. She is objecting to the fact that the president of the United States referred to certain people as animals. Of course, in Gaian Tantric cosmology and in Planetary Tantra we consider ourselves as animals. So from our viewpoint this is not an insult. We obviously have a completely different concept of animals than ordinary people do. But as you would all know, to call someone an animal in a routine and mundane way is to insult them and place them in a derogatory or inferior or undesirable status compared to a human being. So the president of the United States used ‘animal’ as an insulting and degrading term in referring to some members of the well-known Mexican gang M13 who have been known from time to time to commit some pretty brutal and sadistic acts. But this creature from the House of Congress in the United States really protested and she stated her view that it was really unacceptable for the president to call these Mexican gang members animals just because they butchered a couple of teenage girls alive with machetes. And they've done far worse than that. And she stated her protest in the language of the strictly judeo-christian view of humanity. And you listen to her words there for 40 seconds. You know: “We are all God's children and there is a spark of divinity in everyone. And how can it be, does the president not believe in the dignity and worth of every person?” Because if you do, then you would see humanity in these M13 gang members and you would respect the dignity and worth of those gang members based on your perception of the humanity and the essence of humanity that resides in them as it resides in you. So how do you like that proposition? How would you like to go along with that?
If you stood right now on the street in front of one of those members, tattooed members of the M13 gang, and looked him in the eyes. Are you going to see in him the same humanity that you see in yourself, or do you feel obligated to? Well, according to Nancy Pelosi you damn well do feel obligated to and if you don't show that you hold this way of perceiving, then you are inhumane and there is something less than human about you. All of that, all of that enforcement; it really is an enforcement. Let me put it in this way: the implicit enforcement in the obligation to view humanity in that way is fundamental to the judeo-christian view of the human species and it is just that view that has to be broken. That view is actually an evil spell that has been cast upon you that prevents you from having another kind of perception of humanity. So if you are willing to accept that a false sense of humanity and a false perception of humanity has been imposed on you, then you may be willing to consider that there is another way to look at humanity and that's where I'm going in these talks.
So the next section is titled “Spark of Divinity” and there I cover some really important points about this concept that all human beings have a spark of divinity in them. And I go into the background of this concept and I show that as a matter of fact the Gnostics were wrongly accused of holding the view that we are sparks of divinity who have lost ourselves in the darkness and evil of material existence. That is not a genuine Gnostic view, although it is widely and almost unanimously considered to be one. Those of you who are listening now and let's say who have read “Not in His image” will know that I've taken considerable effort to refute this view. Routinely scholars call it the anti-cosmism of the Gnostics; anti-cosmic: the claim that Gnostics rejected the material world, the claim that they considered it to be the creation of an inferior or satanic deity. It's entirely wrong and I've corrected it in a number of ways on a number of occasions. So what I do here in this text is simply reiterate a couple of the main points of my refutation. For instance, you will find in the Nag Hammadi materials, which are written in a Greek/Coptic melange, that there is a distinction between use of the word ‘cosmos’ and the use of the word Kaz. And Kaz is the Coptic variant of the Greek Gaia or GE meaning the earth. Well, those texts, if you read them meticulously, distinguish the earth from the cosmos or the system. So for Gnostics the word cosmos, which is best translated as ‘system’ in this sense, was something negative and more comparable to the ‘matrix’. According to the Gnostics we live on the earth Kaz ― Gaia ― which is the body of the Aeon Sophia in material imminence and that is not a prison, that is not a delusion, that is not a matrix. But there is a system of deceit imposed upon us within this natural world we inhabit. So the natural world is not evil but the system of deceit imposed upon us directs us away from the truth and to that extent it can be considered to be evil, that is to say working against life. So there you go. There are many ways to state this proposition and I've talked about it many many times in my interviews on the internet and so forth.
The spark of divinity lost in the murk and darkness of the material world is, when you actually examine that paradigm and go looking for the cultural and textual roots, a teaching of Talmudic Judaism and the Kabbalah. As a matter of fact I put “spark of divinity” into the search engine and clicked on ‘images’. And the first image that came up is a painting ― which I reproduce here ― on the site chabad.org. Chabad.org is a platform for the theology and ideology and dogma of Chabad Lubavitch, which is the leading Talmudic sect in the world. Chabad Lubavitch is also an extremely potent political and financial influence in the world. As a matter of fact the Yahudi concept of correction which is called Tikkun olam is based on this narrative that there are parts of divinity who have fallen away from unity in the Godhead; fallen into material darkness and need to be recovered; collected out of the darkness and restored to unity in the Godhead. That in a sentence is the basic theological proposition of Chabad Lubavitch and of Talmudic Judaism. Now, it remains to be seen if these “sparks of divinity” are descriptions of some divine essence, immaterial spiritual essence, that abides in all human animals or if it only abides in certain human animals who are of a superior status in the species or may even belong to a higher species than what we commonly recognize as human.
So there you go, and from that topic I segway back to the topic of the Orion nebula. I do so because I want all to be perfectly clear on where you come from. You know, you don't have to imagine where you come from; you don't have to think about it; you don't have to speculate; don't have to make believe; you don't have to make up some story; you don't have to attribute where you as a living human creature come from to some kind of fantasy that you concoct or someone else has concocted in the Urantia book for instance; or in Blavatsky’s secret doctrine. No, all you have to do is go out at the right time of the year and look at the sky. Many many people around the world, even though they don't exactly know what they're seeing, recognize the form of the constellation of Orion; the Skywalker as the Egyptians called him, or as they are thought to have named that constellation ― Asar I believe ― my Egyptian is little rusty these days. Skywalker, you see this mammoth figure walking across the sky with characteristic belt and there, hanging down on the right side of the figure, you see this blotch which is the Orion nebula. That's where you come from.
Everything is material. I know there are some of you by now ― I suspect, I don't say I know, it's been arrogant. I suspect there are some of you by now who get a bit of a thrill every time I say that. Everything is material; the human genome is a material plasm consisting of a nucleic acid substrate which is a fluidic medium distributed across the stars of the trapezium in the Orion nebula. And that is such, that is a fact. It is an inarguable fact and it's not make-believe and it's not a hypothesis.
So, how wonderful it is that if you want to see the origin of your own material being you can go out in the sky and look at it. And do look at it, do contemplate that beautiful vision on some occasion, on every occasion when you have the opportunity. You'll see what it does to you to look in that direction and know what you are seeing.
Now, proceeding with the written text following my comment on the Orion nebula with these illustrations, I introduce the acronym TAD and I propose to use this word to replace the word ‘people’. For some time now I've been... I won’t say uncomfortable, but I don't really enjoy the word ‘people’. It always makes me think of People Magazine and I see myself standing in the supermarket checkout line with a can of tuna and a quart of milk looking at the latest issue of People Magazine, people, people, the peeps. I really don't like this word. When you talk about the dignity and worth of the human person, to me the word ‘people’ does not convey that. So I came up with this abbreviation TAD which stands for Tertiary Anthropine Derivative, which is pretty fancy you gotta admit. I mean, it's a fine day of the week when you can invent something like that. As a matter of fact, it's quite precise Gnostic language: Tertiary Anthropine Derivative. Anthropine refers of course to the Anthropos, the Anthropine species.
Are you materially right now as an individual specimen, as a human animal, a single human animal standing on two feet with two arms and a head like all the other human animals unless they're born in a mutilated condition, are you the embodiment of the Anthropine genome that is suspended maturely in the Orion nebula? Well, Yes and No. You are a derivative of it but you are not a pure embodiment of it.
Think of raw milk. Suppose that you never knew that raw milk existed and that it came from cows. Suppose you only knew that milk was the beverage you buy in the supermarket. There are people by the way who are in this condition, I can assure you. So there's milk that you buy in the supermarket. So you come home with a carton of milk. And let's say you decided to try something new and you saw “Oh, chocolate milk”. You come home with a carton of chocolate milk; you open it; you pore out a glass and you drink it; and what are you tasting? You're tasting pasteurized milk, probably milk that has been subjected to UHT ― ultra high temperature ― for preservation and it has chocolate added to it. So, that milk is a derivative of raw milk but you might not even know that raw milk exists. You have never encountered raw milk.
Likewise, you have never encountered a direct explicit incarnation of the Anthropine genome. You yourself are not that. You are a derivative; you are a racial derivative; you're a TAD, a Tertiary Anthropine Derivative. Why tertiary? Well, I explained in the text that the first condition of the Anthropos is its condition within the Pleromic core. The Fallen Goddess Scenario says that the human genome was designed... it says that two Aeons, Sophia and Thelete, designed and calibrated the human genome in the Galactic core. So the first time that the human genome was actually formed, it existed in the galactic core. Yes, there is nucleic acid in the galactic core. It's not exactly the same as the nucleic acid which appears outside the core but it is the same substance.
Okay, so that's the first degree of the genome ― nucleic acid in the core. Second degree of the Anthropine genome is the nucleic acid outside the core. The great film in the form of dew on the spider’s web of nucleic acid deposited in M42, that's the second degree or the second derivative condition. Then, how does it happen that that genome in the Orion nebula comes to propagate itself in planetary systems? Well, the propagules of the genome, which are like freeze-dried granules of coffee, if you will ― granules of freeze-dried coffee ― these propagules... they turn into propagules once they are drawn out of the nebula on fine filaments of plasmic electrical currents. And these filaments of plasmic electrical currents run through the entire region of the galactic arms. And the propagules of the Anthropos carried on these filaments eventually, sooner or later by chance, find an hospitable planetary environment because there are many many planets in the Galactic limbs. I'm talking about just our galaxy alone, the Orion galaxy as it's called. And so they drop into the atmosphere as flakes or grains and they fertilize, they become fertilized by the conditions of the atmosphere, and this is how human beings emerge in the environment of a planetary laboratory and that is the third condition. Tertiary.
So, let me be the one to break the news to you. You're a TAD; I'm a TAD; everybody's a TAD; people are TADs. And I'm going to practice calling people TADs and using that word instead of ‘people’ saying: “Well, sometimes this and sometimes that and that TAD sitting over there in the corner sucking on a beer”. It might have occurred to you that this particular (ha ha) term, this particular way of speaking of people, has the illusion, the allusion to tadpoles. And isn't it true that the male sperm that fertilize the ovum and produce, or reproduce human species by what is called meiosis look exactly like tadpoles. So every one of you TADs, including myself, is here because a spermatic tadpole managed to burrow its way into one of the ova where the eggs was sliding down the channel of the fallopian tubes of a woman. And that's just the plain facts of the case.
Now, you'll note in the text that I make a point; I've already made it before; I'm going to continue to emphasize... bear with me if I get repetitive; some things bear repeating. You are a derivative of the human species appearing in a racial strain. No one embodies or can embody the genomic root identity itself. You see that? That is a material fact. No one can embody the genomic root identity. You can only embody a derivative of racial strain of that identity. Everything is material and what is true for the material is true for everything else as well. What is true for the material is true for the ethical, the ideological, and the psychological. If it is true for the material that no human being, born of a woman due to the unity of sperm and ovum, can embody the genomic root identity; if that is materially true, biologically true, then it is also true that there can be no truthful image of the Anthropos as a genomic identity. Nevertheless, you have lived all your life with that image, haven't you? There is an image, unique in the world, an image of a man, a male member of the human species who is said to embody the genomic root identity, and that image of Jesus or of Jesus/Christ, the human divine hybrid, is a hateful deceit. It's not just a deceit, it's not just a lie, it's a hateful deceit that has been planted in the mind of the human races by a race that sets itself apart and hates them all. As I've said before, and I can only try to say it again as cogently and eloquently as possible... as I've said before in the form of a question: “If you receive the image of your own humanity from a group that places itself outside humanity and hates you, what could possibly go wrong?” What could possibly arise that would harm you and defeat you in your humanity if you derive your image of humanity in that way from that source?
And I want you to be absolutely sure of one thing; if you do not take away anything else from this talk ― you, every single one of you, and I'm speaking to you now each to each individually ― you need to realize that your image of humanity, your sense of humanity and your ability to perceive humanity when you look at other people and when you look into yourself, has been given to you. It is not your own product, it is not the product of your own heart or your own sensibility or the powers of your own imagination.
But hold on, there is a way of perceiving humanity materially that can be all that. There is a way of perceiving and sensing humanity in yourself and others that can be your own product. But you can only achieve that on the other side of The Great Dissent. This challenge requires that you overthrow and reject entirely the view of humanity that has been given to you. You must recognize WHO gave it to you. The source of it is no mystery, the source of it is not something to speculate about. Everybody knows who gave to the human races their universalist sense of humanity, everybody knows that, and that is what you must reject, the sense and image of humanity coming from that source. The Great Dissent, as you might say, a negative and a positive aspect; it has a rejecting or defiant aspect; it is an act of defiance, but it also has an affirmative aspect. First, in The Great Dissent, you defy and deny and reject the sense and image of humanity that has been given to you. And then, in the affirmative aspect of this event, of this great great undertaking, you find a sense and image of humanity that comes as your own product. It's yours, because you make it yourself, because you fabricated it out of the very material of your own soul and psyche, out of your intellect and imagination. It is your own creation, it is your own project and not something that you received from an alien source.
So, if you are with me so far, and this is a steep steep haul ― I think you can see that by now. If you are with me so far; we'll just go into the homestretch; I'll skim quickly over the remainder of the text. You'll note there that I bring up the issue of eugenics. I discussed the term ‘salutary respect’ which occurs in this remarkable citation from a book by the historian Arnold Toynbee and Daisaku Ikeda who apparently was a Japanese intellectual... remarkable citation. And in that passage, that comes under the subheading of human dignity, I point out that both Christianity and Communism are firmly based on this concept of universal humanity which has been given to you. I know of no other citation in all my work, all my studies in research, that is as clear as the one I present here. But what Toynbee and his collaborator say is so important; Communism is an outcome of Christianity, of course it is; and Communism is an outcome of Talmudic Judaism, of course it is; and the concept of the proletariat, the Internationale ― no, that's a cliché, it's a meme from Communism. What is the Internationale? Well, it's the group of the mass of people who can be all lumped together, no matter what country, what origin, what race they come from, what culture they were brought up in, they can all be massed together as an international or corporate body. And they are the oppressed, and Communism claims to fight for the liberation of the oppressed and to bring justice to the oppressed. And that whole ideology and agenda crumbles before your eyes when the props of universality is removed. This concept... it's not only a concept, but it's a sense and it's an iconic image, all in one. That complex of universality props up Communism and it comes from Christianity, it comes out of the judeo-christian belief system and the Abrahamic religions.
How does Islam factor into this equation? Well, I'll just give you a wild guess. Since Islam means submission, then everyone who submits and becomes a Muslim belongs to the same faceless corporate mass of humanity. So when one Muslim looks at another through the eyes of a Muslim, a follower of Islam, that Muslim sees a reflection of his or her own humanity in the face of the other Muslim. Can you see that? But what they see is an illusion and a lie. It’s as if there is some real entity or agency, as if there is some true and genuine presence existing in that faceless recognition, the recognition of 1,6 billion faceless zombies for one another. That's the universality of Islam. It's the same scam, it's the same lie, it's the same hateful deceit. The Abrahamic religions all have the same root and that is the archontic deceit of the Zaddikim.
Coming around to the conclusion of the text, there are just 2 more points I would like to highlight. First point I might give you in the form of recitation. It's only one short sentence and you can certainly memorize it if I may be so bold to say so. It could be one of the more important things you ever learn in your entire life and it goes like this: “The Anthropos is purely imaginal, extra-biological. Races are existential, biologically real.” Two sentences actually. Can you handle two sentences? Now, you may have a question about my use of the term ‘extra-biological’ or exo-biological. There is actually the word ‘exobiology’; it refers, I believe, to the existence of biological creatures and entities outside the atmosphere of the earth ― exobiology. Is the Anthropos exo-biological? Absolutely, purely on material terms. It is a plasm. It is a gently throbbing ― well, gently on a scale of millions of light years ― a gently throbbing membrane of a biological plasm deposited extra-terrestrially. So it is exo-biological, but it's still biological, it's still material. The Anthropos is purely imaginal, exo-biological, but races are existential, biologically real. There, I made it into one sentence for you. Is that easier? I want to make it easy, believe me I do, and I've got to warn you that what's coming in the continuity of this talk, what's coming in the completion of this topic is a game-changer like nothing you've ever seen before. It's brewing, brewing like a storm. It's getting strong. And when it breaks like a thunderhead I'll be there to tell you what's happening and to read the weather.
I'm not just going to read this for the staff. I'm going to read this for everyone who comes into PT. Why do you come into PT? Why are you interested? Why are you here? Why did you sign up for Nemeta to be a guest and a member? You want to know who you really are? You want to know what you're really looking at when you walk down the street and you look at other human beings streaming towards you on the sidewalk? Do you want to know what you're really looking at? Do you want to know what to look at? What to look at, that's an instruction. You've never been told what to look at when you cast your eyes and cast your gaze over your fellow human beings, all those other TADs, all those TADs out there on the street. The reality of it is: you have been told what to see in humanity, but you have not been taught how to see humanity. So who is going to teach you how to see humanity? Well, that's an assignment that's bound to be rather unique, obviously. And so it goes to you a unique entity. But, actually, it goes to you a unique process.
So the Maitreya can teach you how to see humanity, how to perceive it and how to perceive the racial strains of humanity and to know the distinction. But the Maitreya only does that by engaging you in a process of which you are also the source. You cannot undertake the process without becoming yourself a source for the process. This is how deep it runs as the discourse now takes us in the direction of this great great question, of this great challenge, The Great Dissent.
Finally, I close on a text with an image, probably one of the top five religious images in the world, which is the sculpture known as the Pieta of Michelangelo. So there you have Mary, the Virgin Mary, the mother of the human divine hybrid who is said to embody the perfection and essence of humanity in a way that no other human being can. And there he is limp and dead, a corpse in the laps of his mother. And you are supposed to celebrate this image, not only as the picture or icon of your own humanity, but as that which gives you the sense of that humanity. Do you have a sense of your humanity when you look at this limp dead corpse, a victim of torture? Is that were you get your sense of humanity, from a tortured corpse? Well, many people do and that is a fucking inarguable fact, isn't it? Just savor it for a moment. This is how far it's gone. This is how bad it's gone and how rotten it's gone. And people like Nancy Pelosi, and there are millions and millions of them, are operating in righteousness out of a sense of humanity that has gone totally rotten, as rotten as any fruit or any piece of meat that ever came under your nose.
Welcome to Kali Yuga!...
...the time of the most extreme decadence of degradation of humanity, but also the moment of spectacular and unparalleled realizations which are sudden realizations, sudden and immediate realizations.
The need to BELIEVE can lead straight down into hell.
The voice you hear during the first three minutes of the video below is from a woman who was about to die in California Paradise DEW-induced fires (November 2018) while she prayed that the absent biblical God Yahweh would save her. Then follows JLL's comments and warning...
God exists, but he is insane. And he works against humanity. Such is the startling message carried in the Sophianic vision of the Mysteries. Gnostics warned that humans coexist in a planetary system with a demented entity who can access our world through our minds. Sophia’s “son” is a problem child, to say the least. The problems the Demiurge poses for humanity have barely begun to be realized.
- Not in His Image (2006), Chapter 12, "The Insane God"
Monotheism begins with a god who hates trees.
Ye shall utterly destroy all the places where in the nations which ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree. And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their idols with fire; and ye shall hew down the carved images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place. (Deut. 12:2–3)
|
The Demiurge of the Old Testament is jealous, insisting that no other gods be honored before him. This demand of course implies that there are other gods, competing deities. They are Pagan divinities who pervade nature, manifesting in all manner of creatures, in clouds and rivers and trees, even in rocks. Monotheism will tolerate none of these sensuous immanent powers. It makes the earth void of divinity, its inhabitants subject to an off-planet landlord.
The whole system seems to be sick, sick unto death. It does not create the healthy, alive, radiant human being; it does not create the joyous, the celebrating, the festive being. It does not teach you how to make your life a festival. Whatsoever it teaches takes you deeper and deeper into hell. And you know it -- because I am not talking about some speculative systems of thought, I am talking simply about your psychology, your state of being.
