Lesson 14: The Ray of Death

PENSUM

  • What is beyond death?
  • What stays and what goes away after death?
  • The three trials.

What should be taught

  1. What is the Death Ray? At what moment do we accept its impact? What is ANTAHKARANA or silver thread? What is it that goes to the other dimensions?
  2. Explain how as we die we transfer a psychological diagram which later connects to the fertilized egg in the physical to be reborn.
  3. Explain that the Essence in its successive existences becomes conscious of everything.
  4. The 3 trials: who is judging and what?

PRACTICE: CONTINUITY WITH PREVIOUS PRACTICES, ESPECIALLY WITH THE 3 FACTORS OF THE REVOLUTION OF CONSCIOUSNESS

(See “Yes, Yes, Yes”, chapter “The Law of Eternal Return”)

What Dies and What Lives On

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “Death”)

They die:

  • The physical body

    • It goes to the grave.
  • The vital body

    • At the moment of death it leaves the physical body.
    • It does not enter the grave, but hovers near it.
    • It dissolves slowly simultaneously with the physical body.
  • The personality

    • It consists of energy (belongs to the 4th dimension).
    • Dissolves slowly, depending on how much energy it has.
    • i.e. if someone had “fed” it a lot while alive, it takes a great deal of time to dissolve.
    • i.e. if after the person’s death the relatives, or other people think of it then it is nourished and slow to dissolve.
    • It remains in the tomb.
    • When relatives visit the cemetery and bring flowers, it comes out, wanders around, and finally returns to the grave.
    • Under certain conditions, one can see it. This is what people call “ghosts”.

Continued:

  • the ‘ego

    • The ‘egos’ do not die with the death of the physical body.
    • An ego-flaw that we don’t dissolve in this life follows us into the next and the problem grows from life to life.
    • However, the ‘egos’ are not immortal. Either we dissolve them consciously with inner work, or Nature dissolves them into the subdimensions through the Second Death.
  • The Essence

    • Essence is truly immortal and continues after the death of the physical body.
  • Essence and ‘ego’ continue after death clothed in the Astral Body.

The Posthumous Procession

The Death Ray

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “Death”)

  • The Death Ray is a current of such high voltage that it destroys the organism when it passes through it.
    • It is the only type of energy that the body cannot resist.
  • It connects death with conception.
    • The Death Ray causes the emission of radioactive waves which travel through time and sort the genes of the future physical body.
    • This is a 5th dimensional phenomenon (Eternity) that operates beyond time.
    • In this way the last moments of agony of the dying person are connected with the moments of sexual pleasure of his future parents.

Flashback to the Electronic World

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “The Courts of Karma”)

  • At the moment of death Consciousness and inner judgment are released by an electronic discharge.
  • Then man sees his whole life passing retrospectively.

Faint

  • This discharge is so strong that it causes the person to fall into a comatose state and into incoherent dreams.
    • Only those who possess the Soul (that is, who have an awakened Consciousness) can withstand the electronic discharge without losing their Consciousness.
  • This fainting lasts for 3 1/2 days.

The Angels of Death cut the Silver Thread

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “The Angels of Death”)

  • The Angels of Death are the Beings of perfect men: Self-realized Masters.
    • They work under the guidance of the Blessed Mother Death (Ekati).
    • They belong to the Ray of Saturn.
    • They always act according to the Law.
    • When working they take the form of a skeleton with a scythe (such as a policeman wearing his uniform, a doctor his apron, a priest his robes, etc).
    • The dying feel them or see them.
    • Outside of work they take the form of beautiful children, wonderful virgins, respected Masters, etc.
  • The astral body is connected to the physical through the Silver Cord.
    • This cord is called Antahkarana in the East.
    • It is like a kind of umbilical cord that can and does lengthen indefinitely when the astral body is removed from the physical (eg in physical sleep).
  • Death occurs when the Angels of Death cut the Silver Cord with their scythes.
    • Each Angel of Death has a book with the names of people to be disembodied. No one dies a day before their time.
    • Once the Silver Cord is cut, the soul cannot return to the body.

Flashback to the Molecular World

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “The Angels of Death”)

  • Man relives his life retroactively in the Molecular World, but at a much slower rate than in the Electronic World.
    • This is because time in the Molecular World is slower than in the Electronic World.
  • In this flashback he relives his life from old age to childhood and birth.
    • Then he goes to all the places he’s been at every age and relives every scene of his life, doing the same things he did while he was alive.
    • He feels great joy for his good deeds and deep moral pain for his bad ones.
    • At first he believes that he is still alive, but as the flashback progresses, he slowly begins to understand that he is dead.
    • When the flashback ends, he is fully aware of the final outcome of the life he has just passed.
    • If the person is not completely lost, he makes the decision to right his wrongs and pay his debts.

The Court of Karma

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “The Angels of Death”)

  • After the flashback to the Molecular World the disembodied is presented in the Courts of Karma.
  • There the Judges of Karma judge him according to:
    • His good and bad deeds. (Weight)
    • The number of his lives. (Number)
    • The internal grades. (Measure)
  • According to the judgment there can be three outcomes:
    • Return to a new physical body (in the Cellular World).
    • Holidays in the higher worlds (Molecular or Electronic Worlds).
    • Condemned to downward evolution (in the Mineral World).

The 4 Regions

(See “The Book of the Dead”, chapter “The Four Circles”) (See “Hermetic Astrology Inner Dissertation”, chapter “Capricorn”)

  • All levels of existence are composed of 4 areas which refer to all religions:

Cellular World (Earth)

  • The Cellular World is the physical plane.
  • The electromagnetic trace that human life leaves at the moment of death is imprinted on the conception of the fetus.
    • Genes constitute the bridge between the Molecular and Cellular Worlds.
    • The genes move and combine under the influence of the radioactive waves emitted by the dying person in his last moments.
    • In this way his new physical body is the exact result of his previous return, the faithful instrument of his Karma.

Molecular World (Paradise)

  • The Molecular World is the 5th dimension.
  • Those who suffered a lot in life and were good people have earned the right to take some vacations in the Molecular World before taking on a new physical body.
    • This holiday lasts until their Dharma (their reward) is exhausted.
  • The Essence enjoys its stay in these Heavens without the ‘I’.
    • The ‘I’ remains at the threshold of the mystery, awaiting the new incarnation.
  • Ordinary people, who have not awakened their Consciousness, live their holidays unconsciously, projecting their dreams into the atmosphere of the Molecular World and being completely happy.
    • Initiates do not dream, as long as they have awakened their Consciousness, and while they remain in these regions they work consciously.

Electronic World (Uranus)

  • The Electronic World is the Causal plane.
  • It is the Solar World of Light; it is the world of Spirit.
    • Our Being lives in the Electronic World.
    • In the Electronic World we are light. We live in everything and experience the unity of life.
  • The fate of Essence in the Electronic World after death is almost non-existent, because man is not yet prepared to live in this region.

Mineral World (Hell)

  • The Mineral World is the subdimensions.
  • People who have completed their 108 lives or become too perverted go to the Mineral World.
    • These are people who have “hardened” too much and no longer respond to any kind of punishment.
  • This world is:
    • the Christians’ Hell
    • the Hades and Tartarus of the Greeks
    • the Inferno of the Romans
    • the Naraka of the Buddhists
    • the Avicii of the Hindus
    • the Mixtlan of the Aztecs
    • the Ammit monster of the Egyptians
  • It is the melting pot that “melts” their hardness to release their Essence.
    • Here the lost souls return from the human state to the animal state, then to the plant state, and finally to the mineral state, until they are reduced to cosmic dust.
    • This is the Second Death.
    • Finally, then their Essence is released.

What can we do for the dead?

Cemeteries and Cremation

(See “Occult Medicine and Practical Magic”, chapter “Disembodied”)

  • Usually, the disembodied are drawn to their physical bodies. o They shape the astral part of their graves through imagination, turning it into the place where they spent their last days o i.e. in their hospital room or bedroom.
    • They wander around the cemetery and think they are still alive and suffering from the disease they had (they talk about their disease, the medicine they take, etc.).
  • So that the disembodied does not suffer, it is better to cremate his body.
    • Then the attraction to the physical body dissolves.
    • The soul feels happy and healed and leaves the graveyard.

Prayers

  • We should not disturb the dead with lamentations and cries.
    • Lamentations draw the dead toward the physical world, disrupt his retrospection, and cause him to suffer.
  • We should pray for them, thus giving them happiness and peace.
    • We must pray for the Essence of the deceased, sending it love and strength to move forward on its afterlife journey.
    • We can pray the prayer found in Pisti Sophia in chapter 108.
    • Not to “pray” to the personality of the deceased, because that way we pull him back.

Funeral Ceremonies

  • A Funeral Ceremony done consciously can greatly help the disembodied.
    • i.e. the Gnostic Funeral Ceremony
    • i.e. the Tibetan funeral ceremony and the reading of the Book of the Dead to the disembodied for 49 days.
  • In such a ceremony we address the disembodied, we call him to awaken and realize that he is dead and we pray for him.

Suggested Practice with the WU Mantra

  • At the end of the lesson we will do the TIR-BAR Runes and a guided practice:
  • First we all do the TIR-BAR Runes together 7 times.
  • Then we will sit for a meditation practice.
    • We first take a few deep breaths, relax, clear the mind, etc.
    • We focus on the third eye and do the “WU” mantra together to completely empty the mind of thoughts (each at their own pace).
    • After some time we continue to do the mantra mentally.
    • Then we stop working with the mantra and try to feel the silence and peace of Being that remains when the mind stops.
    • The practice will last about 20 minutes (without the Runes).

Second Chamber Information

Just for our own understanding, not to share it with the First Chamber.

The Time Scales of the Worlds

The Cellular World

  • In the Cellular World life spans from one month to 80 years, and in this time all organisms on the surface of the earth develop normally.
  • Gestation lasts 10 lunar months, childhood 100 lunar months, and life approximately 1,000 lunar months.
    • This means that as man grows older, time becomes slower and slower for him.
    • This explains the fact that when we were young children each day contained more and more intense experiences than in adult life.

The Molecular World

  • It is called “molecular” because at this level our consciousness operates through a molecular body.
    • This is the ‘desire body’.
  • Matter in a molecular state (e.g. a perfume) is subject to fewer constraints than matter in a cellular state.
    • i.e. a molecular body can pass through another molecular or cellular body, can grow or shrink, change shape, etc.
    • If we relate these observations to a consciousness operating in a Molecular Body we see that it can pass through objects that appear solid to us, change its form, penetrate other molecular bodies and feel what they feel, etc.
  • That is why all religions place their Heavens above the earth, in the clouds and in the air, since above the surface of the earth matter is in a molecular (gaseous) state.
  • In the Molecular World time is 1,000 times faster than in the Cellular World, a speed suitable for molecular phenomena.
    • In the Molecular World events are measured on the time scale that goes from 40 minutes to a month.
    • This explains how in the Molecular World we can relive the experiences of an entire lifetime in a month.

The Electronic World

  • It is called “electronic” because at this level our consciousness operates through an electronic body.
  • Matter in an electronic state (e.g. light) is subject to fewer constraints than matter in a molecular or cellular state.
    • i.e. an electronic body can be almost everywhere at once such as visible light. It can penetrate and illuminate the interior of molecular and cellular bodies like X-rays of ultraviolet light, and it can heat other bodies like infrared light.
    • If we relate these observations to a consciousness operating in an Electronic Body we see that it can be almost everywhere at once (omniscience) like visible light. It can penetrate and illuminate the interior of molecular and cellular bodies like its X-rays ultraviolet light (lives within all things) and can heat other bodies like infrared light (gives life and love).
  • That is why all religions associate the Heavenly world and Heavenly beings with light and the Sun, since light is in the state of free electrons.
  • In the Electronic World time is 1,000 times faster than in the Molecular World, a speed suitable for electronic phenomena.
    • In the Electronic World the time ranges from 2 1/2 seconds to 40 minutes.
    • This explains how in the Electronic World we can instantly re-live the experiences of an entire life in retrospect.

The Mineral World

  • It is called “mineral” because at this level consciousness functions through the mineral element.
  • That is why all religions place their Hells inside the earth, since matter is in a mineral state.
  • Matter in the mineral state is subject to more limitations than matter in the cellular state.
    • i.e. a mineral body cannot grow, cannot change, and cannot die, except through vast periods of time.
    • If we relate these observations to a consciousness that resides in the Mineral World we see that it cannot grow (spiritually), cannot change (repent) and cannot die (tortured “eternal”).
  • In the Mineral World time is 1,000 times slower than in the Cellular World.
    • These time scales are excruciatingly slow, ranging between 80 and 80,000 years, suitable for all mineral processes occurring within the earth.
    • That is why the consciousnesses in hell feel that time passes excruciatingly slowly and tediously.
