This is a review from the general critique of Vol !, of 'The Universal Seduction'. I have posted the site at the end of this review for those interested in the full article……Tony.



In his essay entitled: 'CONSCIOUSNESS & THE PROCESS OF MANIFESTATION "MIRACLES"'

starting on page 571, O'Clery starts off with what I consider a spiritual truism: One cannot influence a plane

higher than one's state of mind control. [[If this were not true, then the two sayings in 'The Sentences of Sextus'

(quoted above) would have been false! Since this is a truism, by keeping one's self in the highest vibartion, low

level negative energies cannot bother you; even if you falter through weakness, the sincere calling upon a higher

power may be enough to rescue you. THIS IS YOUR JOB IN YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY: to attain the

highest vibration possible ~~ therefore becoming one with the Father, if possible. One good example of this

would be Paramahansa Yogananda, who only died (with body immutable) in 1952. It can be done; just keep

your eye on the donut, and not the hole.]]



O'Clery enumeartes the seven astral planes, where the lower four could be described as "hell realms" occupied

by un-evolved humans, as well as animals & non-humans. If you have unresolved hatred & desires, you will go

here to learn that you CANNOT SATISFY THOSE DESIRES ~ and so you learn from this frustrating

experience.. [[I believe this is what certain visionaries "saw" like Emanuel Swedenborg (Swedenberg) who may

have mistaken it for ETERNAL DAMNATION, when according to the law of reincarnation, all experinces are

needed for one to finally mature. {{{Swedenberg did not believe in reincarnation, so he naturally incorporated

his visions with his concepts of religion.}}}



Even in THE AQUARIAN GOSPEL OF JESUS THE CHRIST, desperate souls like the

"evil spirit" is told by Jesus that even he could make it back to the Father,

though his journey would be long and hard. Many verses of the Old & New Testament imply and infer

this sacred concept of REINCARNATION ~ if you have eyes to see it; cf.

'REINCARBNATION: A Christian Reflection Upon' located at my website: BULLdog

O'Clery also describes three higher planes of the astarl which are commonly

called 'heaven', and are more pleasnat & happy. All these beings have a

recognizable form, created by their own thoughts. [[Again, this description

fits in very well with how George Anderson describes these affairs, although

George uses terminology as "upper & lower 4th & 5th dimensions"...which is

reflected in his book, WE DON'T DIE.



According to O'Clery, above all these astral and mental planes is

'CONSCIOUSNESS' Itself or 'Immanent God' or 'the Goddess'. Above that is the

inexplicable 'TRANSCENDENT'. [[In THE NAG HAMMADI LIBRARY, the highest is

referred to as 'Formless' or 'The Eternal Unbegotten'.]]



In the ancient wisdom [of which Paramahansa spoke to] 'God' projects a

creation, an appearance, with which it is not involved...much like a dream,

the author speculates. [[There are many other philosophical speculations that

go beyond the scope of this selective critique, so if so inclined, ruminate

over pages 572-573.]]



What IS germane to this essay is the lack of a desire for spirituality for

those who are in the lower planes; rather, they strive for egoistic dominance

& power over others [[somewhat akin to the Brezezinskis & the Kissingers of

the NWO.]] These are the beings that become demonic, like Hitler & Stalin.

Many can shape-shift & bi-locate. (The author goes into a lengthy discussion

as to the yogi's ability to do this; however, thsoe that can only shift

between planes (as distingusihed from yogis,) are still only operating at the

lower mind level. [[Again, for a fuller digestion of these things, it would be

better to refer to pages 574-575.]]



One concept that O'Clery touches upon [[and one which I had seen in Edgar

Cayce material]] has to do with the 'Clear Light'. When one dies that entity

immediatley 'checks in' with the 'Clear Light' of consciousness. If one is

able to recognize this, then one merges and becomes [spiritually] liberated.

Unfortunately, most have KARMA that drags them down & they awake on the border

plane ~~ just above the material plane. They stay there (at its appropriate

level of consciousness) until it's time to ~~NOT AGAIN! ~~ REINCARNATE ~~

until eventaully they can recognize the 'Clear Light'.



INTERESTING NOTE: Tony O'Clery makes a startling observation from the Hindu

Puranas. It was said that eons ago, the Emperor Hiranyakasipu was considered

a great scientist because he overcame the knowledge of all matter and could

manipulate matter completely (UNIFIED FIELD THEORY of EINSTEIN?) This

knowledge was so great he could send ships to THE STARS! (The time frame is

roughly 2 million years ago.) [[Obviously if this is based on truth, it would

asnwer many a question about our real roots ~ not to mention the many enigmas

currently extant on this orb; cf. THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF THE HUMAN RACE by

Michael Cremo & Richard Thompson for some suggested data that would support

the above contention.]]



In the last section, O'Clery mentions that he had spent years studying

mysticism & philosophy, and after many a journey, he realized that there is

only one true teacher: that found 'within'. [[Is it any wonder that a

carpenter named Jesus said two thousand years ago that the kingdom of God is

within us?]]
