Higher Mental Plane (Page 11 of 24)

The "Higher Mental Plane" is the Home of our "Higher Mental Body", Higher-Self or Over-Self which is between our "Mighty I AM Presence" and our lower bodies. It is the Divine director of all our lives on this earth. These "Higher Soul Bodies" do not reside in the human body but above them therefore they are sometimes referred to as the Over-Self. Our "human state of consciousness" is made up of our inner-selves while our intuition or inspiration comes down from our Higher-Selves. Our Higher-Self is connected to our lower-self by a "Life Stream of Light." (If you would like to see a picture of your own God-Self, your "I AM Presence" or your Higher and lower selves go to the Website http://www.saintgermainfoundation.com/) The Old Testament of the Bible refers to the "Life Stream of Light" between your Higher-Self and your lower-self as the Silver-Cord when it says, "Or ever the Silver Cord be loosed...then shall dust ("all are of the dust" Chapter3:20) return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it."-The Preacher (Ecclesiastes 12:6-7) I have been able to reach out of my physical body with my spirit-hand several times & feel this Silver-Cord coming down into my Crown-Chakra on the top of my head where the fontanel has closed up as a child. Once I shifted my consciousness in individual stages from one Inner-body to another until I could not go any further. There were not any more Inner-bodies to shift to. After this I found myself travelling upwards instead. Within the Heart-Centre of the "lower human self" is a Permanent-Atom, "Spark of the Divine" or Divine-Flame connected to our Higher-Self which gives us Life.

I believe the "Higher Mental Plane" is a Violet-Heaven, Home to the "Violet-Flame of Purification and Transformation". The "orthodox Christian priests" would have us believe that the "Ritual of Baptism" will gain us entry into Heaven. Because it is only a ritual you could be baptized a 1000 times and still not be worthy of entry into Heaven. In "The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ" by Levi (p109) Jesus taught: "Washing is established as the pledge of your discipleship. Until this Age shall close this pledge shall be a rite, and shall be called, baptism rite." This Age was known as the Piscean-Age with the "symbol of a fish" which some Christians like to display as a symbol of Christ. This Old Age is now closed as we enter into the New-Age, the Aquarian-Age, thus this rite or "ritual of Baptism" is no longer a requirement. In other words we entered into a New-Dispensation in 1932 replacing the Old-Dispensation just as the New Testament replaced the Old Testament of the Bible 2000 years ago. The Violet-Flame is "the Real Spiritual Key" to preparing ourselves for entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven. In the Old Testament of the Bible we read how "the LORD went before them (Israel) by day in a pillar of a cloud to lead them the way; and by night in a Pillar of Fire, to give them light; to go by day and night."-Moses (Exodus 13:21) Here I believe we learn that the Bridge between Heaven & earth is a Pillar of Fire thus we need to use the "Baptism of Fire" to Spiritually cleanse ourselves & raise our bodies up into Heaven. In the New Testament of the Bible John the Baptist teaches: "I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but He that cometh (referring to the Master Jesus) after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire." (Saint Matthew 3:11) In the book "The Twelve Blessings" by George King from the "Aetherius Society" (p38) the Master Jesus refers to "the Violet Flame of Transmutation." In the same book (p32-33) Saint Goo-Ling teaches: "You should all think through your physical and mental bodies the Transmuting Power of the Velvet (Violet) Fire. For that is really how it feels, just like soft velvet when it caresses your aura, with its Violet fingers. You should then think upwards this Flame of Transmutation and then your bodies will be clean. THIS IS THE FINEST PRACTICE FOR ALL STUDENTS OF TRUTH IN THESE DAYS... PRACTICE MANY TIMES AND ONE DAY PERFECTION-LIKE A SUN-WILL DAWN... TREAT THIS IN A SACRED MANNER, FOR IT IS VERY GREAT, MOST HOLY PRACTICE." Jesus used the Violet-Flame to gain the Resurrection. We also must use the Violet-Flame to cleanse ourselves of all our mistakes or negative karma from this life & all our Past Lives to prepare ourselves for the Resurrection in this lifetime. A Brother of the Masonic Craft has written concerning his experience of enlightenment: "You know everything and understand the stars...They are all within you, and you are all light. But the light is music, and the music is violet wine in a great cup of gold." (p269 "The Hidden Life in Freemasonry" by C. W. Leadbeater) To me this is a symbolic way of saying that within the Universal-Golden-Light of the Soul-Plane is the Universal-Violet-Light of the Higher-Mental-Plane. The Violet-Flame is the True Sacramental wine which can transform our base metal human nature into the Pure Divine Nature of the Great Golden Cup, our Mighty "I AM" Presence. Beloved "Saint Germain is the Lord of the Seventh Ray" which is the Activity of the Violet-Ray of this earth and the controlling, directing Intelligence for the "New-Cycle of ten thousand years". If He had not chosen to render this service to mankind still It would not have been available to us and our human creation could not have been dissolved because It is the only Power in Heaven or earth that will do it. He represents Freedom to this earth for the "next ten thousand years".

                     
The Throat Chakra

 

The Doorway for me to the "Higher Mental Plane" Heaven is thru the Throat-Chakra which some Masters consider to be the Master-Chakra. (See 'Life & Teachings of the Masters of the Far East' by Baird T. Spalding.) These "three Higher-Selves are I believe expressed in the Holy-Trinity of orthodox-Christianity as the "Father, the Son & the Holy Ghost". In "The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ" by Levi (p22) Elihu teaches: "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."

The "Ascended Masters teach" that individuals who pass from the physical body and who have lived a normal and good life go into the "Octave of Light", into the "Higher Mental Body" where they function during the digestive period to assimilate the experiences of earth, until they return again.

 

                     
                   A Grand Master of Masons

In the Mark Degree, where the Mason becomes a Mark Mason or a Mark Master which is an extension of the F. C. or Second Degree, "a Mark is given to him, typified in Masonic and biblical phraseology as a white stone, upon which a new name is written- the true name of the ego. [which I believe in Theosophy refers to the Higher Self.] The Hindu term for the man who takes the Third great Step is Hamsa, the swan." (p283 "The Hidden Life in Freemasonry" by C. W. Leadbeater) To me Hamsa, Soham, Sohang or Ham is the Holy Word or Name of our Higher Self known as the Higher Mental Body. I believe this Mantra can be used to gain the Holy Union with our Higher-Mental-Body. To break down the Mantra Soham; I believe 'So' is the Sound of the Higher Mental Plane, 'Ha' is the Sound emanating from our Higher Mental Body and 'm' is the Sound which Unites us therefore it is usually attached to a Mantra.
