		<description><![CDATA[It’s important it is to be clear in the differences between nihilistic Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism and to emphasize that theosophists are not nihilists at all, in fact the opposite. The true soul of man is eternal,  existing as a unique facet of the one eternal flame, throughout inconceivable  cycles of manifestation.  

I too had fallen into the misconception of eliminative materialism when I first studied Buddhism.  This idea goes hand in hand with the idea of transcendence as a way out of earthly existence in order to gain eternal life. This simple misconception has produced a ring pass not of perception that has side tracked large numbers of people from realizing their true spiritual path.

I am overjoyed at the realization that it is not being out of this worldly existence, which is to be striven for, but to be in this world fully conscious.

Your statement, “The Fourth principle is subject to the mortality of the “three bodies” but the inner center of the Fourth is immortal to the extent to which it has assimilated and integrated into itself the influences of the higher Self.” is such a clear conclusion when we look at the fourth principle in this light. 

Now we can clearly see the divine incarnation in man as an existing “fete accompli” for each one of us, needing only self realization to bring it into living reality. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Many things that were concealed from us or were not registered and understood by us at the time become clear to us. Having transcended crude like and dislike we enter a much more accurate and insightful cognitive experience. Our understanding of our own motives and the motives of others and how our mutual motives and desires combined to form connections in life become clearer to us.”


So does that mean that we would see what was really happening, from every angle? Not only what happened, but why and with what intention.  Experiences in life such as:  Now I see that dad was always mad because he was unhappy with the marriage, and he took it out on me;  I secretly plotted to hurt him because of my own anger and hurt; this was unknown to others because I acted like the perfect daughter. Now it is all revealed, it doesn’t disappear because I refused to look at it or be honest about it. If I understand correctly you are saying that now in Kama Loka four I see everything and everyone  -  why and how it all played out, the hidden agendas and motives. 


Then when we see it all, in light of this wondrous revelation of the whole picture, wouldn’t it seem ridiculous that we had acted in such a narrow minded way?  I understand how you would refer to it as an awakening, a heightened awareness, our own presence waking from a dream in which we were entangled.  Experiences that would seem to be viewed in an objective way in this new awareness state would have created carryover energies and entanglements with others to be played out in other earthly lives that awaits us.  You have put it so well when you say:


“We begin to understand why we had to be born in that particular time in that particular place to that particular family in order to find the right entry point into the fabric and dance of life. Reincarnation is an important appointment on earth with other important people.”


It is comforting to know that we will gain understanding from all of this and come to a sense of gratitude and love of the way the logos unfolds.


Your way of writing, each word carefully chosen, the depth hidden within the wording of each sentence, bears us to read and reread the articles. Thank you for these new writings kmt.

		<description><![CDATA[The difference between the Astral and the Akasha is becoming clearer to me now. I see that in the After Death Experience articles, KMT has described the first stages, the Kama Lokic stages, as being purely in the Astral realm, the realm that is a reflection of the earthly material and psychic states.  When we read a description of the next states there will be a link to the Akashic field during the Devachanic part of the cycle.  We will need to know the distinction between the Akasha and the Astral planes. 


“The Higher Self of each human being exists within the eternal Akasha Field. Reincarnation, Karma and Destiny all occur because the higher Self of the human being exists within the eternal akasha where the living memory of everything that has happened, is happening, and is destined to happen exists.”KMT


This would explain why we return as ourselves, again and again, and we return in waves together, we have shared memory in the Akashic field. Each human being’s Higher Self is eternal and within the larger Akashic Field where all memory exists.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The feeling of experiencing  again the life lived on earth, as though this is the very first time it has occurred, but with a distinct feeling of “déjà vous” and heightened awareness, even to the point of experiencing ones birth into the physical world, is mind expanding.

When we experience (or relive) a situation that we feel is hard to face and we feel that we didn’t handle it in a good way, this state of awareness give us a chance to “redeem” the experience. We can’t change the life we have just lived, because we have set in motion causes in the physical plane which will send out energy which needs to play out on that plane.  

We learn from the experience and gain wisdom in the after death state. With a feeling of “déjà vous”, we see what is going to happen and then, if we carry good intention,  we make a different choice, go in a different direction and change the outcome on the astral plane. Because we are in a state of heightened awareness, we feel the feelings and reactions as well as understand the mental state of the people we are involved with on the earthly plane. We see their intention, and our intention clearly; honesty and transparency prevail here on this Kama Lokic plane, nothing is hidden. 

All the things we think no one will know about, are clearly there, there are no secrets, no hidden agendas. Our intentions, attitudes and thought forms are clearly visible. 

When we are in a dream or trance state, and see the entities inhabiting the astral plane, many of which we know are the physically dead in their Kama Lokic state; when we see them, are we seeing the real kamic state of &quot;the being&quot; then, with all the hidden agenda clearly visible? 

What happens to &quot;a being&quot; of bad intent, one who sees the situation clearly, sees the beings he/she has affected and all their thoughts and feelings, and yet still hangs onto anger and revenge with intent to harm others?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[KMT: I want to thank you for clarifying for me, the reason why HPB condemned spiritualism. 

Connecting with the spirits of the dead requires that the medium be passive and let the spirit communicate through her/him. When this ability is combined with psychism, the ability to read the energy and thought forms surrounding others, it becomes a dangerous situation. A very real deception takes place, not only for the person receiving the desired “message” but also by the medium who is in a passive state of self deception and unaware  of what is really happening. The person receiving the reading often thinks that they are getting a message from an advanced spiritual entity, when in reality it is a combination of the  psychism of the medium and channeling of an entity. 


You reaffirmed the importance of awakening the spiritual will which is within the higher self by regular active meditation. This would eliminate the tendency toward passivity which could result in the unconscious channeling of various entities and thought forms of others, which could result in the belief that these ideas are formulated within oneself. 

I feel it is vitally important for earnest students to be reminded to use meditation to strengthen the spiritual will. This will allow them to maintain an awakened state and to recognize influences of entities or thought forms of others while in physical, meditative and astral states.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you for expounding so clearly these essential teachings.
For a very long time the need has been here in the west for the average person to understand how the world functions and how the world we live in is connected to the other dimensions that so many feel exist.  It is clear that the institutions, the world’s main religions, that should be disseminating these ideas have completely lost touch with their own spiritual beginnings or they would be sharing these notions with their congregations.  The idea that the principle that underlies the whole of the Cosmos is not a being of any kind, outside conducting the symphony, but rather completely integrated with the Universe at all levels is such a simple  one.  Thank you for stating what should be so obvious: that “there is no extra-cosmic designer because the Universe is a vast awareness organism in its own right”.  Every atom, every unit of life is a hologram reflecting the whole in every part.  This also sounds very much like Rupert Sheldrake’s idea of the morphic fields that link ideas on a higher level.
H. P. Blavatsky is one of the rare modern writers to remind us of the fact that we humans move along together in a wave through time and space, growing and learning.  Our destiny is the destiny of the Universe itself.  This would have to be so if we live in this shared Akashic Field.]]></description>
