The Importance of the Foundation

From "Initiation into Hermetics" by Franz Bardon (who was considered by many practitioners to be an adept):

"It is evident that true initiation knows neither a mystic nor a magic path. There is only one initiation linking both conceptions, in opposition to most of the mystic and spiritual schools which are dealing with the very highest problems, through meditation or other spiritual exercises, without having gone through the first steps at first. This would be very similar to somebody starting with the university studies without having gone through the elementary classes first. The results of such a one-sided training, in some cases, are disastrous, sometimes even drastic, according to the individual talents. Generally the error is to be found in the fact that most of the matter comes from the Orient, where the material as well as the astral world is regarded as maya (illusion), and consequently little attention is paid to it." 

The elementary skills are as follows: 

 


 

 




 













   

 




 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lightworkers/warriors have been expected to do very advanced workings, with bringing light through the Galactic Central Sun being one example of many, without having foundational knowledge and structure.  I myself kept seeing terms such as "astral plane" and "mental plane" and so forth without really knowing much about these planes.  I myself am by no means an adept, and quite frankly, neither are the vast majority of lightworkers/warriors.   

Although it's not required to be an adept to be a lightworker/warrior, we are doing advanced lightwork without even mastering the fundamentals.  It makes sense that there are so many issues.  "If structure is unstable, power magnifies instability."

"Individual ascension process" should start with the fundamentals, which are lacking in most – myself included.

  1. Since "starseeds" are said to originate from ET races at higher densities, wouldn't that make them "adepts unwares" or "temporarily embarrassed adepts" that fell from mastery of those basic abilities due to incarnating into the earth Matrix, which effectively forced them to "un-learn" these skills through source-disconnection and the mass programming, mental and physical poisoning, and dumbing down which the surface population has been subject to down here for the last 26,000 years?

    Even if not adepts, I'm pretty sure the average Arcturian or Andromedan ET would pretty much be a solidly advanced "initiate" by earth's very low standards for what passes for spiritual mastery and consciousness development.

    I almost think that, at the time of the hypothetical Event trigger and re-activation of starseeds/lightworkers, they will not need to undergo the hard work of learning things like unbroken concentration and meditative inner stillness, as these are part and parcel to ascension. After all, it is said that most of the lightworkers here are said to not actually be here to ascend, but to effectively help out on this dangerous volunteer mission even at the expense of disabling themselves and effectively having to forget would be to their civilizations, kindergarten/second nature stuff?

    To give a real-world analogy, people who undergo severe head injuries and forget everything they have learned and lose all access to the skills they had. This is sort of what happened to star seeds incarnating here, and they understood and accepted that as part of the sacrifice of coming here.

    Of course, I'm not making excuses for myself or anyone. Sadly, sometimes you really do need to re-learn basics if your skillset and memories have all been sapped via amnesia and mind-programming on an anomaly-infested hellscape planet such as this one.

    Sometimes I wonder if a lot of those historical advanced occultists and adepts, from Paracelsus to Agrippa to Bardon, were starseed/lightworker volunteers themselves or just very gifted and clever earthseeds who managed to claw their way out of the limits placed upon human spiritual growth by the quarantine? Like the "ones that couldn't be herded like the rest" of the indoctrinated, perpetual reincarnation-trap recycled "sheeple" earthseeds?

    1. Whatever the case may be, needing to re-learn it and so forth, 'it is what it is.'

  3. @Anon. This is entirely how I understand it, and I’ve had it confirmed to me in many ways. 🙏

    The starseeds consist of those who were captured in addition to souls from various origins who volunteered to assist in the Earth liberation mission. 🪽

    They are masters already, and it was the only way that it would be possible to create even a small percentage chance of awakening directly inside the archon mind matrix. After the event, a majority will simply go home most likely. 💜

    There’s no reason to continue the thread of the Earth human persona unless that is what they desire to do. Some may want the experience of a physical ascension in an Earth human body, and others will not. Veil drop will also result in some transferring into new physical forms or their original bodies (memory restoration and return to their most resonant embodiments with full connectivity to their energies of origin; even if they are in a human body they are vastly different energy since Earth humanity is its own monad that emerged very recently in cosmic history).

    Your theory about the advanced occultists is very interesting and likely true. There were very few starseeds on Earth in the past relative to this unique time where the liberation process is a primary focus. 🌎🛸

  4. The mental stillness part, where there's an absence of conscious thought while maintaining wakefulness and conscious awareness, I think is what some call the "Void state" or, perhaps in Portal terms, the "sub-quantum state" where one experiences the ultimate undifferentiated reality. It's quite literally the "foundation" of all existence and is peaceful because it is eternal stillness and true permanence, although not the same as Source. However, the way to re-connecting with Source is attained via the "Void state." Under some conditions it's relatively easy for nearly anyone to achieve, such as when relaxed or feeling internally calm and can be sort of akin to "zoning out" and in a sense exactly is that but done consciously.

    This makes sense to me considering that the universe as we know it came about as the interaction/co-creation between Source and the sub-quantum (Void). One exists at the "highest" level of reality, the other the "lowest" but they meet together at the same level paradoxically and perhaps gives another layer of meaning to the axiom "as above, so below."

    1. What I learned recently is that the physical is bound by time and space, the astral is not bound by time but is bound by space, and the mental plane is spaceless and timeless, beyond both. Pure being and thought, being on the mental plane, have no dimensions of time and space. Also, the physical body is of course on the physical, the soul is on the astral, and the spirit (which is the immortal/eternal aspect) is on the mental plane.

      I plugged in what you said within the context of Bardon's work, and this is what it said:

      "Through disciplined vacancy of mind, the spirit becomes receptive to the Akasa principle, the causal sphere underlying all manifestation. This principle is not mere emptiness but the timeless origin from which the elements proceed. Mastery of this state allows the magician to align microcosm and macrocosm in accordance with the axiom “as above, so below.”

      The mental plane = spaceless and timeless sphere of ideas.
      Akasa = spaceless and timeless causal origin of all spheres."

      I'm not sure about the void and the subquantum in this regard. It's the same principle though. I'll have to see where this fits with continued research.

    2. Mystinar is a starseed/occultist collective/subculture in the online "lightworker" community and has been mentioned in comment sections of this blog before, but this is an article by them regarding the void which may or may not be of much interest. I honestly do not know what to make of a lot of it and some of it doesn't exactly resonate with me, but part of it does.

      You've also mentioned Lovecraft/abyss/chaos entities before and this link addresses that subject as well, saying those are spirits/souls/minds native to or ontologically connected with the Void, not all of which are malicious per se, but a lot probably are (and linked to Lurker and subquantum anomaly I'd suspect). It gives positive examples of "eldritch" entities (i.e. "Bast/Bastet," the Egyptian goddess) after listing examples of the really negative types:

    3. @starlight Fascinating. And we can think of the higher density versions of these planes as existing in their own “octave.” 🎶

      For example 5D having its own versions of the corespondent planes. And spiritual dimensions in addition to angelic realms not having a physical component at all being tiered from the etheric and then into higher expressions (although physical experiences can be simulated and manifested in a way). ✨

      The highest possible dimensions being realms of only energy, light bodies, atmic, cosmic tiers, and what many have referred to as Nirvana. 🪽

    4. Anon, I've actually embraced the void like this before. It's like embracing nothingness. Very strong energetic attacks can be survived this way. Interesting article about surviving the beginnings and endings of universes. There are definitely some overlaps with Cobra's material.

      Azara, yeah, there are many variations/octaves. Bardon has a different system that doesn't go into this aspect, but is useful in a different way. "The astral plane" by William Walker Atkinson (aka Yogi Ramacharaka), which I read a while back, goes into the 7 x 7:

      Physical Plane
      – Dense physical (solid, liquid, gas)
      – Etheric subdivisions (often four grades of “etheric” matter)
      – Total: 7 subplanes

      Astral Plane
      – The plane of emotions, desires, and post-mortem experience
      – Seven degrees ranging from coarse/desire-bound regions to refined, luminous strata

      Mental Plane
      Often divided into:
      – Lower Mental (concrete mind, form-based thought)
      – Higher Mental (abstract mind, causal body)
      – Still treated as seven subplanes overall

      Buddhic Plane
      – Intuitional consciousness
      – Unity awareness beyond separative intellect

      Atmic Plane
      – Spiritual will
      – Principle of divine purpose

      Anupadaka Plane (“Monadic”)
      – Level of the Monad (individualized divine spark)

      Adi Plane
      – The primordial or divine plane
      – Pure spirit; undifferentiated source
