WEEK ONE

Gnosis on the Nervous System - (2848)

​

Introduction

​

The "Grand Sympathetic Nervous System" :

 

One

​

"This machine has its rudder and lever from which it is governed and conducted. That rudder is the autonomic nervous system. The pilot that controls this machine is the Innermost (the Holy Spirit). Therefore, by means of the autonomic nervous system lever, the Innermost wrapped in the Astral body controls the whole organism and all the hormonal secretions."

 

Two

​

"The vital energy collected by the spleenic chakra passes to the solar plexus and then spreads throughout all the nervous channels of the autonomic system, filling the whole human organism with life."

 

Three

​

"Traumas and nervous impressions often disturb the functions of the central nervous system and the functions of the autonomic nervous system, as well as the glands of internal secretion."

​

The first statement especially stands out, as it tells us that the nervous system is of significance to studies.

 

This statement tells us that if we can become more aware of our nervous system we can help our inner Being better move and affect our physical body.

 

The second statement tells us that our nervous system is really the conductor of energy in our body. Therefore the quality of our nervous system directly affects the energies moving through our body. Without energy we can do nothing.

​

Modern Science

​

When we consult what modern Science has to say about the nervous system we find that there is a lot of information available.


A brief run down of what Science has discovered about the nervous system is needed for this study.

This is a very brief run down of the various divisions of the nervous system in the human body.

 

Modern science tells us that all invertebrates have a nervous system. In the nervous system that an invertebrate has there are two main parts. Our nervous system, science says has, also these two main parts.

 

These two main parts are the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system.

 

From the peripheral nervous system stems two other well known nervous systems which are the Autonomic and Somatic nervous systems.

 

From the Autonomic nervous system stem the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nervous systems.

Grand Sympathetic = Autonomic 

​

I asked a good friend who knows quite a lot about this topic from the Gnostic point of view, and he said that when Master Samael mentions the "Grand Sympathetic Nervous System" or even the "Sympathetic Nervous System" he is really referring to the Autonomic Nervous System which includes both the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic nervous systems known to Science.

 

In some of the latest editions of "Endocrinology and Criminology", references to the "Grand Sympathetic Nervous System" have been replaced by the "Autonomic Nervous System".

 

End (2848).

These teachings given to us by our Innermost are for the liberation of the human soul [Motho, Essence]. 

Thus, these teachings cannot be understood or psychologically digested by any logic or  reason of  ego, mind, and personality.

Logic and reason are equal to psychological hypnosis.

Inside every living thing there is something called "The Being". 

In modern Christian mythology "The Being" is referred to as "The Father". 

"The Father" is the seminal point of every Creation and the very mystery of regeneration. 

"The Father" inside every living thing is truly "The Being", which, for all lifetimes is always in secret - - and is the secret of Gnosis.

​

The purpose of our spiritual work is to dissolve the very mind we use to study the esoteric nature of the work. 

By learning to observe the  emptiness of breath, we become skillful in comprehending the emptiness of mind itself - - and thus, we are able to dissolve every form in which mind and sensation appears to us as the  Essence of Modimo (Unkulunkulu).

"Gnosis is the esoteric language of our Being! It is a foundation for the clear perception of Reality that a finger cannot point to, or mouth transfer to anyone without the instrument of meditation. A true gnostic is someone who has mastered the art of meditation for himself. A true gnostic is someone who knows how to live with a mind (manas) without habits."

(Only in a mind (manas) without habits can Truth be known from moment-to-moment.)

These teachings given to us by testimony of Modimo (our individual Innermost) are for the esoteric benefit and liberation of the Human Soul [Motho,  Umuntu, the Essence]. 

​

Thus, these teachings cannot be understood with intellectual reason, nor can they be digested by logic of our subjective ego, mind, and personality. 

​

Logic and intellectual reasoning are tantamount to psychological hypnosis for the soul.

Everything comes from the Creator, every atom of the cosmos is synthesized inside the bosom of the Creator - - and in modern Christian mythology the Creator Being is referred to as "The Father". 

​

"The Father" is a seminal point from which all created things permeate, He is the very mystery of regeneration. 

​

"The Father", inside every living thing, is truly our inward dweller; which, for all our lifetimes is always in secret - - and is the authentic internal goal of Gnosis itself.

The purpose of our spiritual work is to dissolve karmic imbalances caused by our basic mind from moment-to-moment. We want to know how to perceive reality beyond duality and relativity.  

​

By learning to observe the  emptiness of breath for example, we become skillful in comprehending "Emptiness of Form" - - and thus, in the same skillful manner, are able to dissolve the grasping mind in us.

 

In that way, our Interior mind is fully liberated from every "Form of Emptiness" upon which sensations appear to be real in the intermediate state.
