Dead silence...
I've mentioned this before, but I feel it bears repeating. As a writer, I'm always looking to improve my skills and learn what works and what doesn't work. I've been doing this for two years and I still have yet to see even one comment posted on any of my three blogs. I guess it just feels...one-sided to me. You, the reader , are a participant, not a spectator. I know, I know, this stuff is really strange. Others might think you're strange for commenting on stuff like this. Trust me though, there's a lot stranger stuff out there. So I'm not demanding, I'm politely asking for some feedback. Pretty please? With sugar on top?

Eden Revisited
As I promised in my last post, I'm going to talk about the Book of Genesis, specifically Genesis 2:4 to 3:24. I've read the English translation in the King James Version, and honestly, it left a lot to be desired. To me it seemed to be a gross oversimplification of a very complex narrative. Fortunately, in researching this legend I found a couple of sources that really put this story in perspective for me. The first is the book Ain Soph: The Unknown God by F. J. Mayers. Now out of print, this valuable tome has been rescued and published online. Mayers was a Hebrew scholar, and he skillfully re-translated the first 3 chapters of Genesis, his goal to show what the Bible actually teaches regarding our origins. The translation is done almost word for word, and it provides some of the depth that most English translations lack.
Before Eve as we know her was created, the cosmic being Adam was 'placed' into the spiritual garden that was rendered in the sphere of time and space. Adam had male and female qualities completely fused. When God saw that Adam was 'lonely,' Adam then perceived two beings. He called himself Aish, and he called his counterpart Aesha. God did not command Adam regarding the Tree of Knowledge, nor anything else. The word translated as 'command' can also mean 'advise, caution, or counsel.' The serpent Nachash is the self-concerned (self-serving) aspect of Adam. Pop quiz: who first ate the fruit from the tree? If you said Eve, you've overlooked the fact that Eve did not even exist at this point. It was Aesha, the female aspect of the collective entity Adam who gave into the self-serving temptations of yet another aspect of Adam; this whole scene is just an internal dialogue between different aspects of Adam.
Like a child, carefree and innocent, Adam could not conceive of the consequences he was warned about. Ultimately, free will was upheld. A god can't teach us to evolve directly, as that subverts the amazing gift of free will. How does one evolve? By learning from the consequences of ones own actions. All souls are allowed to evolve at their own pace through free will. Only after the Fall did Eve, the feminine manifested in the physical world, exist. Before the Fall there was only Aish, Aesha, and Nachash, aspects of our spiritual ancestor Adam. So just what is this duality we fell into? Attention is often drawn to nudity, sexuality, and carnal knowledge as being involved in some way, and this has been misinterpreted because of the metaphorical nature of Genesis. It is near impossible to understand The Fall just by reading Genesis; a more literal source is needed to grasp the full implications of what may be the most important event in human history.
I've studied eschatology, or 'end times,' for over ten years. Early on in my research I came upon channeled material. Most of it was of pretty poor quality, but two sources really seemed to be genuine to some degree. The first was the Ra material, and the second is the Cassiopaean Experiment. Where the Ra material feared to tread, the Cs dove right in. The results are shocking, but valuable if one remains objective in their search for truth. Many topics discussed with the Cs are difficult to prove or disprove, as is usually the case with esoteric subjects. Thus one must always take the material with a grain of salt and do their own research. I know some might balk at the fact that this is channeled material, but consider this: isn't the Bible supposed to have been divinely inspired? Aren't most spiritual texts? How is this channeled material any different? I am not going to try to convince you that the Cassiopaean material is the real deal, I think the material is good enough to stand on its own. I'm simply going to paraphrase what the Cs say about the Fall of Man as it pertains to this article. If you want to learn more about the Cassiopaean Experiment, I suggest you read The Wave. It is no small feat, but I will say that this book drastically changed my life.
Okay, enough about that, let's get back to our main event: the serpent in the garden. Cultures around the world and into antiquity have reptiles or serpents in their myths and legends. One theory regarding the origin of these myths is the visitation of reptilian beings from the sky. This is not a new concept, but it is one that is mostly unknown outside of esoteric circles. If this is the case, and I have found much evidence to support this theory, then it is these same reptoids who appear in our creation myth: the serpent in the garden. A soul unit is a group consciousness, a fragment of Prime Creator. The purpose of said soul group is so that Prime Creator may experience itself from all possible individualized perspectives. The Edenic state in which the human soul unit lived before the Fall was a state of purity, of knowing, of connection to the source. Childlike, carefree, innocent, and...quite naive. Just imagine it. These reptoids, beings far in advance of humans even in this Edenic state, visit us and invite us to try experiencing these more physical bodies. Temptation to limitation, pleasurable sensations, self-gratification. The female energy of the soul unit accepted the offer, and we became aligned with these lizards, these Lords of Entropy.
We lost our connection to the higher realms, quickly became addicted to pleasuring the self, and fell further and further from the Edenic state. Soon, it was just a distant memory, but one that we could never forget. It survives in us today thousands of years later because deep down inside, all human souls know this story. We still feel the pain and sorrow of the Fall reverberating throughout our world. Now comes the question, what can we do about this? Well the cyclical nature of the Universe and it's tendency to periodically re-balance the situation indicates that we won't stay in this downward spiral forever. In fact, a lot of circumstantial evidence points to this time that we're in right now as being one of transformation...but only for those who choose it. Remember, free will is the penultimate law, one that not even Prime Creator may violate. Every day is filled with choices. Some move one closer to non-being and entropy, others move one closer to being and growth. There is no right or wrong, only consequences.
I shall conclude with the concept of Original Sin. To sin means 'to miss the mark.' It has taken on a negative connotation, but really, that's what it actually means. To fall from grace is something that all souls must experience; it is a natural stage of evolution. Are we all born with original sin? Born under a bad sign? Not really, in my opinion. Yes, we are still suffering the consequences of the decision to become more physical, but we can choose differently now! If one chooses not to do this, if they choose to continue wallowing in materialism and physicality, then that is their choice. They will eventually be presented with another opportunity to move on, but not for many thousands of years. Personally, I'd much rather learn and grow right now than repeat the learning cycle in this realm. Not everyone shares my perspective, but I will gladly share it with anyone who asks. By sharing knowledge we learn and grow together, exponentially so. This is my attempt at sharing some of what I've learned.
