KNOW THYSELF

There are two selfs; the higher and the lower self.
The higher self is human spirit clothed with soul, made in the form of God.
The lower self, the carnal self, the body of desires, is a reflection of the higher self, distorted by the murky ethers of the flesh.
The lower self is an illusion, and will pass away; the higher self is God in man, and will not pass away.
The higher self is the embodiment of truth reversed, and so is falsehood manifest.
The higher self is justice, mercy, love and right; the lower self is what the higher self is not.
The lower self breeds hatred, slander, lewdness, murders, theft, and everything that harms; the higher self is mother of the virtues and the harmonies of life.
The lower self is rich in promises, but poor in blessedness and peace; it offers pleasure, joy and satisfying gains; but gives unrest and misery and death.
It gives men apples that are lovely to the eye and pleasant to the smell; their cores are full of bitterness and gall.
If you would ask me what to study I would say, yourselves; and when you will have studied them, and then would ask me what to study next, I would reply, yourselves.
He who knows well his lower self, knows the illusions of the world, knows of the things that pass away; and he who knows his higher self, know God; knows well the things that cannot pass away.
Thrice blessed is the man who has made purity and love his very own; he has been ransomed from the perils of the lower self and is himself his higher self.
Men seek salvation from an evil that they deem a living monster of the nether world; and they have gods that are but demons in disguise; all powerful, yet full of jealousy and hate and lust.

WHAT CAME FIRST ? - THE EGG OR THE CHICKEN (by Mystic Rose)

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

We are eternal spirits who are originally formless, energy has no official form and continuously creates an endless variety of temporary physical forms, which is why there is an infinite amount of life forms and species that all vary from each other. As formless entities, we first had to create a physical realm shell-womb to project our consciousness into in order to project our essence into physical form creations. So of course the egg came first and was fused with the fuel of our eternal energy in order to be birthed into a creation that we collectively and individually created. It is wise to remember that just because we appear to be stationary does not mean that we are, our consciousness, energy, thoughts and awareness is a projection into our creation, but we all are residing in different dimensions/frequencies. Our temporary bodies are space vehicles. Humans tend to forget we are in space. We've been conditioned to believe we look up at space, when truth be told, everything in the physical encapsulation are non-stop traveling vibrations in space. We are in a blank space at all angles that we continue to create and decorate with our life force beyond the surface.

THE DAWN OF A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING - BY KONGOLINI ZULU MAU

The Dawn of a Deeper Understanding

The Dawn of a Deeper Understanding
In my absence time was taken to gain a much deeper understanding of myself and the world around me ,the big show of life where everybody wants to be the Rockstar where so many find it so hard to be themselves. I am happy to say I LOVE ME and I am happy with myself and the growth and the progress that has been made in overcoming and growing through my life's many trials and tribulations.  You must go through to learn how to overcome.

 My present understanding is clear I had to begin to learn to control my empathy for others and to keep my eyes on the prize which is IFA, renewing my vows to uphold truth, to respect and protect women and to serve mankind and all those that Esu sends to my door no longer being overly concerned with others problems and issues. I stand COMMITTED!!!
