A fact of recurrence

I'm going to give you a fact about recurrence: we are in Hades now - that interval between death and birth - just as we are here now at this mechanical point of our living time (which we perceive as a circle, but which includes more than this one - linear time - dimension).

When we awaken now, in this mechanical point of linear time we awaken in all the time of our time body or our living time. Which means we also awaken in that interval between death and birth which I call Hades, because the Bible uses that word, and because Plato gave a pretty good - if not exactly close - description of it in the Myth of Er.

When we awaken in Hades it is very noticeable there. The forces of darkness and light exist there. When you awaken there - in Hades - it is like you are walking out of the camp of darkness into the camp of light, and there is friction and opposition to you at first when this process begins. Eventually you have the armor of God to protect you.

This friction and opposition to you in Hades also is mirrored in the now of this physical life. The world gives you friction and opposition. The reins the devil has on your internal being - your fallen nature - gives you friction and opposition. The devil overall gives you friction and opposition.

Think of how many little victories are attained over you when the process begins and commences. Because you are innocent to the fact that you are in a battle. Yet think also of how your victory is inevitable (seen from the rear-view mirror of having been regenerated by the Word and the Spirit).

People might have pleasant death experiences simply because they have no opposition or friction from the darkness because they are not swimming against the current of the darkness, or the Kingdom of Satan.

People who experience difficulty may be in in-between states of awakening and regeneration.

People who experience triumph have been fully regenerated by the Word and the Spirit and have awakened *and have already engaged in the spiritual battle here and now and also in the spiritual realm.* They are not innocent of it all. They are fully soldiers of Christ with experience of the battlefield.

It's clarifying to see this 'point' in time (in our so-called circle of time, which is like the first dimension of time, a linear dimension, making a 'circle') as a *mechanical* point. Mechanical in terms of our consciousness. Once we increase level of being and attain the third and fourth levels of consciousness we are no longer just mechanically moving around that line that forms a circle but we are moving inward from that line (which forms a plane) and we are moving upward from that plane (which forms a three-dimensional manifestation of time.

This solves the problem we have when we think: "Why am I only conscious here, at this age, now, at this point of my linear life-to-death experience?" The answer is: because when we are in a state of mechanical level 'consciousness' we are stuck in this 1st dimension of time, this line which to our perception forms a circle, and the fact that we are stuck in *a point* in this line (a point which moves like a train on this line) seems to be a mechanical law of existence. That's the answer though: it's *mechanical.* But when we begin to truly awaken we awaken in all of our time, and we begin to move - consciously (by degree) - in all dimensions of our living time. And that includes becoming awake in that interval between death and birth, where we are NOW just as we are here in this physical body and world now.

If you want to really feel the power of this Work get the whole-time-perspective and feel that you carry with you. That you operate within the theater of. All that that means. The effect you have on others in your time, who are not just living alongside you now but who are no longer here, yet exist in all their time including in death. In that season in Hades. That interval. Where you exist now as well.

Think of the spiritual battle.

Think of how much more radical your thoughts and words and deeds and actions in general now are with this full-body-time in view.

If you're able to think this now it means you've already been through the motions of recurrence. All the development. The different experiences. The different identities within, or covering, the same person. The type fulfilling its mechanical fate while emerging and developing, a living kernel in essence, in the mechanical ride. Eventually overtaking the mechanical ride as something bigger than the law of fate. Will. Real will. Real consciousness, real understanding. A full body with the full armor of God; a full robe of righteousness (this gets into the Christian reality) which is the righteousness of Christ.
