The Seven Spheres of Rudolf Steiner |
Golden Chain |
- This is the story of the seven spheres of creation, or
the golden chain. - Watch: Evil Falls Into the 8th Sphere. - The Earth is the 4th sphere, but there are 3
spheres before, and there will be 3 spheres after, and that's where the
concept of the 8th Sphere comes in. - On Earth, as
humans, we do face death and that's considered the first death. -
It's completely redeemed if you've absorbed the resurrection body of
Christ and this is why the Book of Revelation says several
times that you will not face death.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. (Revelation 21:4) |
Blues guitar |
- The first question everyone asks is 'am I going to go to
hell' or is there even a hell, and is it permanent or eternal. -
That is why understanding the 8th Sphere is so important because it
attempts to answer the question of where we are going, our destiny.
- Many could say the 8th Sphere is hell, or the bottomless pit, or
the fiery lake in the Book of Revelation, and also the 2nd
death. - But all of those things must be explained and put in the
proper perspective if you're going to understand what the 8th Sphere
or hell really are.
The eighth sphere is the name for an additional sphere of downward development that stands apart from the seven normal evolutionary spheres or planetary stages of our solar system evolution. In the normal development beings develop and rise along a ladder of Conditions of Consciousness. (anthroposophy.eu) |
Depth of Rudolf Steiner |
- Because it is such an important question, it has been
asked by a variety of people who are in a variety of different
conditions of understanding Anthroposophy. - For instance, if
you've studied Theosophy for a few years that's a beginning, but
understanding the depth of Rudolf Steiner's 125 books is another
level. - Is the 8th Sphere hell, no it is not, and it is not
Hades either, which are both storage places.
The eighth sphere represents the opposition of normal or 'good' development, or evil, and the 'sixteen paths of perdition' to get off of this normal development. More specifically, the eighth sphere is connected with the extreme form of evil called black magic that appeared in the middle of the Atlantean epoch (see also: Rakshasas or Asuras and Sorat) and is reappearing again in the current fifth cultural age of the Current Postatlantean epoch. (anthroposophy.eu) |
John the Divine |
- However, the Lake of Fire and the 2nd death can be
related to the 8th Sphere and the only place you're going to find
that referenced is in the Book of Revelation by St. John
the Divine. - That was Jesus turning over the care of his mother,
Mary Sophia, into the care of John the Divine who was with him under
the cross at the crucifixion. - In Revelation, St. John
demonstrates that he had gone through the previous initiatory
circumstances that a Hebrew would go through in his faith.
Divine |
- This is apparent because John's making all the same
references that Daniel's making in the Old Testament that are also
in Ezekial and in all the different parables about rising in the
divine spiritual world. - In other words, rising up to what is
called the 3rd heaven, or the 7th heaven, or the 9th heaven to meet
with the 24 elders and the spirits of the thrones and to have
communion with them. - To sit down and eat supper with them and
get nourished and participate in a mutual nourishment between the
being who has arisen into this realm, and the beings who are there.
Uncovering |
- This apocalypse, or uncovering of the soul, means that
you have to uncover your soul to find out the spirit that's behind
it. - Most of our spirits are coming to us from the future,
they've been preserved in the spiritual world. - You can if
you're an initiate and you've gone through the stages of
preparation; enlightenment and initiation, you can begin to receive
these messages of your higher selves.
Higher spirits |
- You can receive messages from your higher spirits at
this moment in time, through moral imagination, inspiration and
intuition, and that's what John the Divine did, he received moral
intuitions. - These intuitions are beyond time and space, in fact
technically, they're beyond even consciousness. - When John was
on the Island of Patmos in the cave where he received the
inspiration for the Book of Revelation, you have to realize
it's out of space and time.
Apocalypse or revelation |
- Revelation is not talking about the sequential order of
things or just about the 7 churches, and what are the vials, the
wraths and the trumpets? - These things are mystery initiation
wisdom and in the ancient times the mystery schools, especially the
Hebrew schools, taught the prophets what it was to rise into the
spiritual world. - That meant to have an apocalypse or
revelation, and once they had that they had to be very careful
because one wrong prophecy could mean death.
Apocalypse slug |
- The prophets were very explicit in what these beings in
the apocalypse meant to them and they used symbols that were
personal and meant something to them. - Jesus spoke in the
language of mystery wisdom when he spoke to his disciples, and in
parables when he spoke to the comman man. - So when you hear
Matthew and Mark referring to hell, they're referring to the
tradition that Christ Jesus of Nazareth, who became Christ for 3
years was speaking. - The warrior and priest in the official
church, not the savior.
Seeing everything finally |
- It was a familiar territory, so when they said 'the
number of man is 666' the true meaning is not like any
interpretation we've heard except those of theosophy and
anthroposophy. - In particular, Rudolf Steiner, because he
describes what is known as the golden chain which is what happens
when you have an apocalypse and unveiling of the soul and you see
time, all the past, the present and the future. - And this is the
most difficult concept because it's one you can't understand the
Book of Revelation without.
I could see the past, present and future all at the same time. (Nikola Tesla) |
Beyond time |
- Time is eternal but eternal has a limit. - Beyond
time, or what is called eternal or forever in the Bible, is the
description of what Christ was at the beginning of Revelation when
he says 'I am the past, the present and the future.' - He tells
us that he is the alpha and the omega which means he's the entire
alphabet of creation, the entire zoo, zodiac. - However, things
existed before that creation, and they will exist after it. -
When the Book of Revelation says heaven and earth will pass away but
my word will not pass away, that is the real mystery that we are
dealing with here.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. (Jeremiah 29:11) |
Past, present and future |
- The word is the creative word of Christ who is a member
of the Holy Trinity which is one God in three parts; past, present
and future. - So what John is telling us in Revelation is beyond
space and time and particularily, when he names things, they are
symbols. - It's like a dream, everything in your dream is you
unless you're having a precognitive dream.
A precognitive dream is a dream that seems to predict the future. (Wikipedia) |
Dream state |
- This means when you wake up you shouldn't imagine that
the person you saw in the dream something happened with
you overnight, no, that person is a symbol, a representation. - They are an image, a key or piece to the
puzzle. - And that's what you need to do when you look at the
Book of Revelation and remember, when it says hell that the same
book says Hades which was Gehinnom, the Greek name for the Hebrew
hell. - In Mesopotamia it was called Ur and there's a thousand
other names for this underworld and that is not the 2nd death or the
fiery lake.
Fiery lake |
- The anti-Christ, the Beast, Satan and the witness before
the Beast will be thrown into the Lake of fire and brimstone or
second death, along with those who are non-believers in Christ. -
What does this really mean, does it mean you have to believe what
some religion teaches about Jesus of Nazareth (the official church) who they called
Christ? - The answer is no, Christ is in you, it's your higher
self, so if you have not acknowledged your higher self, and that's
what Revelation tells us.
It would be an error to wish to spread Christianity from a center in Asia, where other peoples are still settled, and Buddhism would be equally false for the European population. No religious view is right if it is not suited to the innermost needs of the time, and such a view will never be able to give a cultural impulse. (Rudolf Steiner) |
Overlaying those images |
- It's strange that people don't read it as a victory
book, they read it as a scary nightmare. - The archons try to
find ways to overlay those images on our time and say that we're in
the time of the 7th trumpet or the end, at the war of All against
All but that's not true. - Not that we couldn't be, because every
single person is when they die, so that means the images in
Revelation will happen to you when you physically die.
Purgatory over troubled waters |
- The
question will be, are you going to be thrown in the fiery lake that
is the 2nd death when you die, no, when you die you go to a realm
that Dante described as a combination of hell, paradise and purgatory. - The
Catholic Church added the whole concept of purgatory, a place you go
to work off your sins where the fire doesn't quite burn as much.
- You go to this realm after you die, also called Kama-loka in
Buddhism and the Hindu scriptures call it Bardo where you go through
an intermediate state, a process of judging yourself because that's
what happens. - That's also where the Egyptians tell you that you
should be light as a feather, meaning, no guilt or shame weighing
you down.
Paradiso (Italian for "Paradise" or "Heaven") is the third and final part of Dante's Divine Comedy, following the Inferno and the Purgatorio. It is an allegory telling of Dante's journey through Heaven, guided by Beatrice, who symbolises theology. (Wikipedia) |
Developing |
- This happens repeatedly in the Book of Revelation, there
are multiple judgments. - The 1st judgment is as told in the
letters Paul writes to the churches and it tells you what you should
be working on in your different bodies. - That's what those
letters are referring to, periods of time when we as human beings
and as humanity collectively, are developing our physical etheric
astral bodies and the 3 parts of our soul and 3 parts of our spirit.
- All represented by the different planets in our universe as
different stages of growth.
But all those souls grace the Empyrean;
and each of them has gentle life though some
sense the Eternal Spirit more, some less. (Dante) |
Epochs of cultural periods |
- These are descriptions that are personal, they are for
you to understand so as you read those you can find which of those
churches you exist. - Through the wisdom of spiritual science,
figure out which of those churches are describing the different
epochs of cultural periods that are ruled by Archangels who are
regions of the Zeitgeist, and Archai or time spirits or leader of
the time.
Planetary influence and correspondence |
- As an Archangel rises up into the realm of the
Archai they lead for about 360 years or so and they carry a
different planetary influence and correspondence that create a
repetitive cycle that happens over and over again, but always at a
higher level. - When you enter into the question of time in the
Book of Revelation and ask yourself the question am I going to go
hell, or Sheol, or Kama-lokam, or the Bosom of Abraham or purgatory
realize this is the story of the Mystery of Golgotha.
In the universe we have not to do with repetitions, each time that a cycle is passed, something new is added to the world's evolution and to at its human stage of development. (Rudolf Steiner) |
Mystery of Golgotha |
- The Mystery of Golgotha which is Christ's birth, death,
descent to hell and resurrection. - We are told in the Bible that
Christ went to hell in the days between his death and his
resurrection. - Why did he do that, and why did the Hebrew people
believe that when they died they didn't go to a permanent hell
because there was no 2nd judgment. - There's a judgment after you
die but the big question is what will happen after many incarnations
that are aligned with the Earth, and Revelation says that Earth and
heaven will pass away but my word will never pass away. - Signifying that while the physical world may end, his teachings will remain eternal and true.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. (Matthew 24:35) |
Limitations of human perception |
- This is talking about that in the realm of time the
Earth itself will pass away and time on Earth would be considered
the time that would be from the beginning to the end of the Earth.
- This is the only time that space is considered the way it is by
human beings, because time is considered with the limitations of
human perception and there is a linear understanding of it. -
Except time is not linear and space is not confined and space is not
what we think it is, as a matter of fact, everything beyond our own
solar system is incomprehensible to the human mind and it's all
speculation. - So the question is, when you die, will you go to
the place that Revelation says Christ appears in a cloud with a
sickle?
Christ's sickle |
- The Book of Revelation tells us that Christ
appears in a cloud with a sickle in his hand and he gathers his
harvest. - This is death. - If you know that Christ is within
you, then you also know that life is eternal. - The warning we
receive in Revelation is to preach the eternal gospel and the new
song of Christ.
Wheat harvest |
- That's our 'end time' job, and for those that know they
will not face the first death, or the second death, because we are
harvested early on and this is called the rapture. - This is because
some humans are already conscious, they
know who Christ is, they woke up. - From beginning to end, that is what
the Book of Revelation is telling you, it's revealing
to you who Christ is in the big picture. - And that Christ is the
big picture in the seven spheres of creation, or golden chain.
The great chain of being (from Latin scala naturae 'ladder of being') is a concept derived from Plato, Aristotle (in his Historia Animalium), Plotinus and Proclus. Further developed during the Middle Ages, it reached full expression in early modern Neoplatonism. (Wikipedia) |
Completion |
- On Earth, as humans, we do face death, and that's the
first death, however, it's completely redeemed if you have absorbed
the resurrection Body of the Christ, then you do not face death. -
The Book of Revelation tells us that again and again and
again. - Those who are not harvested by Christ early on, will
have to later face 1,000 years of tribulation. - And this is
after the whore of Babylon and the Beast arrive.
Jesus says, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die." (John 11:25-26) |
Pitfall |
- The Beast from the Earth, and the Beast from the water
and the Beast with 7 heads and 10 horns. - After the Anti-Christ
comes and after the witness before the Beast with 2 horns and all
those who follow them. - Those all come, and that's all before
the years of tribulation and then we hear that the word of Christ is
able to cast Satan, who is the father of lies or the Great Beast or
Dragon, into a bottomless pit and chain him there until he's
released in 1,000 years.
A third of humanity is killed by three plagues: fire, smoke, and brimstone that come from the mouths of horses. (Revelation 9:18) |
Fire and brimstone |
- Have we reached a point where Satan's been bound? -
Has anyone noticed in their life that Satan's been bound and is
under control, no, of course not, he hasn't been bound. - The
casting out of Satan would only happen for those who have already
been harvested because you're harvested before Satan is bound and
before the judgment and before the casting into the fiery lake of
brimstone and sulfur which is the second death.
Brimstone, an archaic term synonymous with sulfur, evokes the acrid odor of sulfur dioxide given off by lightning strikes. The association of sulfur with divine retribution is common in the Bible. (Wikipedia) |
Tradition |
- In ancient times, when a Hebrew died, since they didn't
have a chance to meet the Messiah who is the redemption of all
incarnations, which is the whole point of incarnating on Earth,
instead, they were said to be waiting in the bosom of Abraham. -
This was a tradition that came from Mesopotamia, and in fact, a
tradition that came from all countries, Persia, India and Greece,
these traditions are ubiquitous through every religion or mythology.
Underworld |
- All cultures or traditions describe an 'underworld' Tartarus or Hades, the land
that heroes can go into and come out of. - Such as Psyche, the
great heroine of the Greek story with Euro where she went to the
underworld and she came back. - As long as you don't eat the food
and drink the drink there, you're able to return. - So, in other
words, that certainly isn't a total death, nor is it a second death
and Mercury went there, Hercules went there, many went into those
realms and they came out.
The words of Mercury are harsh after the songs of Apollo. (Shakespeare, Love's Labour's Lost) |
Christ coming to Earth |
- In almost every fully developed tradition you will find
some hero that goes into that realm and comes back. - In
Christianity, we have Christ, who went into that realm so that
everyone before Christ was incarnated. - There are many myths
that describe Christ coming to Earth and how Christ died for the
redemption of humanity. - This is the idea that Christ is a solar deity
who is the creator of our own individual 'I am.' - An image and likeness
of God that each of us has, the 'I am' in our heart and our consciousness, and Christ is the perfect example for us to follow.
After Christ died, his blood went into the earth which then started to redeem the earth and remove the entropy and turn it into ectopy out of gravity and death and coldness into the fiery world warmth of levity that is the mystery of resurrection of Christ's Resurrection body which is now in the etheric realm around the earth. (Douglas Gabriel) |
Growing into a star |
- The Earth is renewing itself and becoming not just a
planet, but it's transforming into a star. - A radiant star that can then
give out warmth, light, sound and life, just like the sun, so we
have been given the chance. - If you were a pre-Christian, and we
all were at some point in a previous incarnation, where we were held
in Sheol or the bosom of Abraham or underworld, whatever you want to
call it, then realize that Christ came to that realm so that every
single soul before the mystery of Golgotha would have an opportunity
to experience Christ.
"Bosom of Abraham" refers to the place of comfort
in the biblical Sheol (or Hades in the Greek
Septuagint version of the Hebrew scriptures from
around 200 BC). (Wikipedia) |
Divine template |
- When you decide that it is the Divine template that you
wish to emulate and become, then you begin to say not 'I' but
Christ in me. - In the far future that's what we'll be saying and
the people who have been redeemed and given the white robes and
teach the eternal gospel and sing the eternal song or the song of
Christ, the Lion of Judah as it is described in the Book of
Revelation. - Those people know that they're eternal because they know
that they have Christ in them.
Rudolf Steiner's spiritual research confirms that
the death of Christ on the cross actually took place
on Friday, April 3, 33, at the ninth hour, that is, at
3 o'clock in the afternoon, according to the Julian
calendar. (en.anthro.wiki) |
Rudolf Steiner's 8th Sphere |
- We have this same opportunity by
studying the Book of
Revelation to find out what ancient Hindu, Persian,
Mesopotamian and Egyptian authors who were divinely inspired knew. - They were talking about what
Rudolf Steiner calls the 8th Sphere which is an unseen, etheric
realm that surrounds the Earth, acting as a trap for souls drawn
into materialism and illusion.
Rudolf Joseph Lorenz Steiner was an Austrian occultist, social reformer, architect, esotericist, and claimed clairvoyant. At the beginning of the twentieth century he founded an esoteric spiritual movement, anthroposophy, with roots in German idealist philosophy and theosophy. His teachings are influenced by Christian Gnosticism or neognosticism. (goodreads.com) |
False reality after death |
- Rudolf Steiner's 8th Sphere is said to hold 'dead souls'
of individuals stuck in a false reality after death, unable to progress toward higher spiritual planes.
- Created by spiritual forces of
deception (Lucifer and Ahriman), this shadowy sphere captures the
spiritual essence of those who lose their way, preventing them from
evolving.
- The 8th Sphere feeds off these souls, forming a spiritual barrier around Earth, draining those who fall under its influence.
Ahriman is a figure in Zoroastrianism and Early Iranian religion, and is the name of the supreme evil spirit and adversary of God. Spirit of evil, chaos, destruction, daevas. The Middle Persian word ʾhlmn' (Ahreman) in Book Pahlavi script. The word is traditionally always written upside-down. (Wikipedia) |
Archons manipulate human beings |
- The 8th Sphere closely relates to the concept of Archons in Gnostic philosophy
and mirrors the Gnostic belief that Archons manipulate human beings, keeping them trapped in a cycle of reincarnation within the material world.
- In both systems, the goal of these malevolent forces is to
prevent souls from ascending to their true spiritual origin.
Māra is a demon and the "Lord of the Senses" |
- These all relate to the Māra in Buddhism who is a demon or spiritual entity who represents temptation, illusion, and the forces that prevent individuals from achieving enlightenment.
- Māra seeks to bind sentient beings to the cycle of samsara (the endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth), much like how the 8th Sphere and Archons trap souls in illusion and materialism.
- In all three systems, these forces work to keep souls or
beings spiritually stagnant, trapped in a false reality, and
distracted from the path of higher spiritual awakening or
liberation.
In Buddhist cosmology, Mara is associated with death, rebirth and desire. Nyanaponika Thera has described Mara as "the personification of the forces antagonistic to enlightenment." He is Yama's fearsome persona and all beings associated with him, darkness and death, become forces of Mara. (Wikipedia) |
- We know that Earth has a moon so how does that relate to
the 8th Sphere? - This is a sphere that interpenetrates normal
material and Steiner called them 7 dimensions or the golden chain of
globes and spheres. - These represent the different incarnations
of the Earth. - Humans didn't come into this chain until the 4th
Sphere; before that, we were living through the first 3 spheres
which created minerals, plants, animals and in the 4th, humans.
The eighth sphere is of decisive importance for the development of the Earth and humanity. It is not easy to grasp conceptually, for on the one hand it designates the sphere of the earthly activity of the creator gods, the Elohim, but on the other hand it is virtually identical with what is called "hell" par excellence in the various religious traditions. (en.anthro.wiki) |
Plant and animal nature |
- Each of us has the mineral, plant and animal natures or
perfections, that arose during those 3 previous spheres, but in the
4th, we recapitualate all of that and it comes in a new form now.
- The future spheres (5-7) are in fact, redemptions of those other
past spheres. - For instance, we are in the 3rd dimension,
Steiner points out that there will be a 5th, 6th and 7th dimension
and that they interpenetrate our dimension and are concurrently
active at the same time.
Angelic forms |
- There is also the concept of the entire 9 hierarchical
spiritual ranks working through our body and in the physical world
as they 'donate' or contribute aspects to us, kind of like a shadow.
- Although they don't come into our realms because these beings
aren't human now. - They are above us as angels, archangels,
kyrios, cherubims, thrones and seraphim and above them, the Holy
Trinity.
Minerals warmth |
- Those 9 hierarchical beings are manifesting now, but
they gave donations in the past. - For example, in the 1st
Sphere, warmth was given and by the time that warmth reached the
world we're in now, it became minerals. - In the 2nd Sphere,
these are divine hierarchial beings who in some cases, came the
furthest down the ranks of the spiritual hierarchies as they could, but they can't come into the realm of the human. - That's
because in the realm of the human, there's death, or we think
there's death.
Lake of fire |
- Well there is a death because we have freedom and we can
choose to either go into the 2nd death, or even the 1st death and
then the 2nd death in the lake of fire, but that's a choice that
each of us has. - As these beings from the past donated the
minerals, the plants, and in the 3rd Sphere, the animals, there was
a time during the 3rd Sphere that something inexplicable happened
and there doesn't seem to be any religion or mythology that explains
this.
Archangel being of light |
- Steiner has the best explanation and he said that during
the 3rd Sphere the angels who were 'beings of fluidity', were in their human form. -
Previously, the archangels, 'beings of light,' in the 2nd Sphere were in their human
form, although it is not human, just the furthest down into physical
incarnation they can reside. - In the 1st Sphere it was the
Archai the 'beings of time' which refers to spiritual entities that
are associated with the flow of time. - The Archai are often
personified as powerful beings who guide and influence the
progression of historical epochs and the development of
consciousness within humanity.
These beings are considered to be part of the higher spiritual hierarchies described in Steiner's Anthroposophy, with notable examples including "Michael" as a central being related to the force of time and spiritual evolution. (waldorflibrary.org) |
Petals |
- Humans are considered the 10th hierarchy that is below
the other 9 hierarchies but we're going to rise up into those realms
in the future. - When the higher beings went through their own
humanness, even higher beings than them had to create an atmosphere for them
to exist in. - The same as current day, we have all 9
hierarchies creating the Earth realm and we don't even see them
anymore because they can't come down here, but we can see what
they've donated.
Angelic donation |
- This donation of material substance, whether it be
mineral, plant or animal, is there for us to bump up against, push
against. - It is a necessary evil, but in the past, it wasn't
evil, it was a donation, a sacrifice and renunciation and a
resignation of the higher spiritual beings to hold back in time and
space an element that would then become materially condensed. -
This happened because of the war in heaven, we hear how Lucifer, who
was the highest angel, fell into the realm of the material world.
This is what is being described in this golden chain of spheres, it's a falling of hierarchial beings into the material realm as a donation for humans to bump up against to create their own freedom out of love. (Douglas
Gabriel) |
Angels as divine images |
- We also have the freedom to deny that God exists, or
that all those hierarchial ranks exist. - We have the
freedom to deny such a thing as a realm without space, a realm
without time that is beyond human consciousness. - And we have
that hubris, that pride, that's the Luciferic pride, but during the
3rd Sphere of the moon, something happened. - Angels lived as
divine images, as pictures: two-dimensional pictures flowing in from
the periphery into a single point.
Eternal ethers |
- This is described by Steiner in his description of the
4th dimension. - Discover a book called The Eternal Ethers, a
Theory of Everything to help put all the concepts together.
- Manvantara, or the 7 Spheres combined, and the Praylaya, or the
rest periods in between. - Manvantara referring to the active
periods, and Praylaya to dissolution or rest where everything goes
into chaos and comes out a new form.
Manvantara or Manuvantara, or age of a Manu, the Hindu progenitor of mankind, is anastronomical period of time measurement. Manvantara is a Sanskrit sandhi, a combination of words manu and antara, manu-antara or manvantara, literally meaning the duration of a Manu, or his life span. (vijayalur.com) |
Divine plan |
- There's a Praylaya between each of the 7 spheres which
all together are the Manvantara and there's a name for it called the
divine plan. - The divine plan needed hierarchical beings to
resist it to create matter and it is matter that is the delusion and
illusion that you are not eternal. - If you can overcome that,
and see through the workings of the spirtual beings, falling,
shattering into this realm, then you can transcend and be
resurrected into a realm of the eternal.
Elements |
- This is the great distinction, in the first 3 spheres
hierarchial beings made donations for us, and they are still here as
elements, elemental beings, formative forces and ethers. - All of
these things are here for us to work with and it's extraordinarily
complicated to realize how time from a human perspective can't
understand that we have what's called heterochrony. - We have
beings from the ancient past active in us now through our DNA. - When we take
over what they have given us as donations (gifts, talents), we can
then finally become free.
Heterochrony is a term used in evolutionary developmental biology to describe a change in the timing, rate, or duration of an organism's development relative to its ancestors. This can lead to changes in the size, shape, and characteristics of organs and features. (Wikipedia) |
Manifesting as physical |
- When this happens, we'll become free and develop and
ascend into the future 3 spheres. - The distinction has to be
made there because during the 3rd Sphere these images started to
manifest as something quite physical because it was a realm of
fluidity, everything flows. - For instance, when you fall asleep,
if you're conscious enough, you will see an ocean of images coming
from all directions that aren't yours. - When you surrender into
sleep, they for sure aren't your images and you can't control them
in your dreams.
Angel realm |
- Your dreams are the realm that the
angels live in and that is when the 8th Sphere started to be
created. - Even though there's technically no 8th Sphere in
the 3rd Sphere shown in visual depictions, rather, the 8th
Sphere is depicted below the 4th Sphere of Earth, where we
humans come to our awakening, what we have really is the
remnants of the 3rd Sphere coming into the 4th Sphere that
created what we now know is the possibility for evil. -
This is the same story in the Bible where Eve eats the apple
from the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil and humanity fell.
Angel fall back in time |
- Some of the beings did not donate
their substance, and they became laggard beings. - They
used their free will and humanness to have freedom and decided
to fall back in time because they were advanced beings. -
This was so they could rule over lesser beings and this is the
pride of Lucifer, which started the 8th Sphere. - The 8th
Sphere is not separate from Earth, but totally interpenetrates
the planet. - Most people think that the 8th Sphere is the
moon but it is not.
Asuras |
- If you look back on those beings who
fell a long time ago, the fall from heaven, casting out from
heaven into the Earth realm. - During the 1st Sphere, there
were beings called Asuras and their job is to eat human
willpower. - Asuras are the opposite of Suras as Asura means those without light, those without spiritual knowledge or spiritual inclination.
Buddhist asuras |
-
There are four categories of asuras in the Buddhist 'Three Realms
of Existence.'
- Those in the path of ghosts who, by means of their strength of protecting the Dharma, can ride their spiritual penetrations to enter into emptiness are asuras born from eggs; they belong to the destiny of ghosts.
- Those who have fallen in virtue and have been dismissed from the heavens dwell in places near the sun and moon. They are asuras born from wombs and belong to the destiny of humans.
Asura kings |
- There are asura kings who uphold the world with a penetrating power and fearlessness. They are able to contend with the Brahma Lord, the God Shakra, and the Four Heavenly Kings. These asuras come into being by transformation and belong to the destiny of gods.
- There is another, baser category of asuras. They are born in
the center of the great seas and live in underwater caves.
During the day they roam in emptiness; at night they return to
their watery realm. These asuras come into being because of
moisture and belong to the destiny of animals. (niemphat.com)
Asura eating your willpower |
- Asuras want to eat your willpower and steal everything
you do, so you become an automaton that can be controlled by
material substance. - Things like your computer, the internet,
the cell phone, the television; all these things are material beings
that don't really exist in this realm and they steal your warmth.
- Machine devices are cold, you can't exist in them and
if you tried entering your computer, you'd get shocked by
the electricity. - Electricity is fallen angels, the
Asuras are fallen beings and all ranks are called Luciferic
hosts because they had the fall of Lucifer.
Controlling your willpower |
- The Asuras are in your willpower
however, they don't have complete control of it because humans
don't control their own willpower. - That's really sad to
realize, but most humans can't even control the food they eat,
their diet. - They can't stop much, things like drinking,
overeating, emotional addictions, they don't control their
willpower. - These beings come in and they're very nasty
beings, they take over the willpower and get control of you
and your soul and spirit.

Ahrimanic cold-heartedness |
- In the 2nd Sphere, the fallen angels
are called Ahriman beings according to Steiner, the Persians
and many other spiritualists. - These Ahrimanic beings are
in your feelings and they want to turn your temperament into
cold-heartedness to get you to turn toward fear and hatred.
- Asuras love hatred and Ahriman love lies and we live in a
time of complete lies.
Ocean of lies |
- We are swimming in an ocean of lies of untruthfulness,
it's the karma of untruthfulness that creates the necessity for the
human ego to rise up and get control of itself. - Get control of
its will, feelings and its thinking because they're all three
different and turn them into higher capacities that can't be
controlled. - Ahriman, who according to Steiner, is incarnated in
the world now and since about 1840 has been the materialistic ruler
of this realm. - It gets
worse all the time for those people who are turning their hearts
cold and not having the fiery warmth of Christ in their heart.
Archon floating |
- In the 3rd Sphere when some of the angels fell, they are
called Luciferic beings now and this is where a lot of confusion
about Lucifer comes in. - Lucifer is a being and he incarnated in
China in the 2nd millennium BC as Ahriman. - He incarnated in
North America in the 2nd millennium and as a counter to
Christ's incarnation at the Mystery of Golgotha.
Christ birth in the ocean of lies |
- What we have is Christ is the middle (the present),
Lucifer is on one side (the past), and Ahriman is on the opposite
side (the future). - We are being torn between them now, the
assurers have yet to come fully into power because they are
controlled by the anti-Christ. - Christ worked from the realm of
the Elohim, the solar logos of the sun, which controls the planets.
- So Christ has his opponent on the sun and his name is Sorat
and although there are many anti-Christs in the Bible, this
is the true anti-Christ.
Another anti-Christ |
- The true anti-Christ in still on the sun and he would
like to steal your 'I am' and make sure it goes into the
fiery lake at the 2nd death, along with him and his cohorts.
- The dragons, beast, anti-Christ, Satan, Ahriman types, all
wish to draw you, through your ego by getting control of
your ego and pulling you into the 8th Sphere. - This
doesn't mean that while you're alive you're going to be
living in this place called the 8th Sphere, it doesn't mean
that the assurers who work from the realm of the moon are
going to come and take over your body without you knowing.
- There's no such thing as a possession against a human
beings willpower.
And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer. (Revelation 6:2) |
Fiery 6th Sphere |
- The
human willpower, the 'I am' can't be violated, it cannot be
conquered or destroyed, it is eternal. - The only thing
that can destroy it is if humans go backwards from being
humans into animals, plants or the mineral realm. - If
you are unfortunate enough that you keep choosing to go on
this path of perdition into this hell realm, which is beyond
a hell realm when it reaches the 6th Sphere. - The 6th
Sphere is when the fiery lake occurs and the 'evil' is more
or less ended in that realm which is called 'Future Jupiter,
Future Venus' or the 6th Sphere.
For following the appearance of the rider is not a kingdom of righteousness—as with Christ’s return (Revelation 19:11–13; 20:4)—but a time of wickedness and sorrow. Masquerading as the true Messiah, he wears a crown, while Jesus wears many crowns (Revelation 19:12). In the Greek translation, the crown worn by the rider of the white horse refers to the crown of victory worn by a conqueror. The crowns Jesus wears in Revelation 19 refer to crowns of royalty.

Dragon |
- What happens in the 6th Sphere is if you get your 'I am'
stolen by Asuric or Ahrimanic beings in your feeling, and Luciferic
beings in your thinking, and you stay stuck there. - If you ask
them again and again to come into you and take over your willpower,
your feelings, your thinking, you're not going to be able to refine
your will, feelings and thinking into the higher forces that Steiner
calls 'moral imagination, inspiration and intuition.'
Throughout the ages the fight between opposing spiritual entities has been referred to as War in heaven, the fallen angels, the image of Michael and the dragon, etc. Also Christ-Jesus confronts Lucifer and Ahriman: Lucifer already on Old Sun, and Ahriman in the Bible references to the temptation in the desert.
Man is battlefield between the natural balanced spiritual hierarchies and the influences of the abnormal or 'opposing' spiritual hierarchies.

Future spheres |
- These are
the realms called the 3 future spheres, the realm where we become
angels (beings of fluidity) in the 5th Sphere. - And we become archangels
(beings of light) in the 6th
Sphere and Archai (beings of time) in the 7th Sphere. -
Therefore, our destiny is to remove ourselves from space and
time and even what we know as human consciousness and rise
into our higher nature which has always been preserved for
us on the Sun.
Billionaire anti-Christ's |
- But Sorat, wishes to come to Earth after
his Asuras and Ahriman and Lucifer have enticed us into what
we call 'hell realms' but they are subnatural realms of
materialization. -
A place of hyper-materialization as today, where we believe
we can be immortal on this Earth. - And what do all the
billionaires want? They want to be immortal on Earth because they're
afraid to face death because they don't know that they're eternal.
Elon foot on the gas |
- So the billionaires work very hard to acquire enough money and machines that
they can live in the machine, take their consciousness from the
brain and put it into a machine. - But this will not happen, they
won't be able to do this successfully. - This is the Soratic fake immortality.
Future Jupiter |
- We as humans
in the Earth realm look forward to what we call Heaven, and that is
what Steiner and other spiritualists called 'Future Jupiter.' -
Unfortunately, if you don't understand your Christed Self before the
war of All against All at the end of the 7 Spheres you are bound for
confusion and trouble. - Understanding that there are 7
Spheres, with 7 cycles inside of those spheres, 7 cycles inside of
those; 777.
Subhuman sphere
space needle |
- When Earth reaches the end of the spheres and cycles, what will
happen as the Earth will go into Future Jupiter. - But first, everything goes
into Prylaya or total chaos like a chrysalis changing from a
caterpillar into a butterfly. - We turn into angels but
unfortunately, those who decided to become more animal than human,
could drop down into the realm of plants, or even into the realm of
minerals and they'll become subhuman.
If we do not believe within ourselves this deeply rooted feeling that there is something higher than ourselves, we shall never find the strength to evolve into something higher. (Rudolf Steiner) |
Dark realm of mud |
- Humans who awake will become angels and some will become
black magicians as those that fell from grace in previous times and
previous spheres. - Then there will be the 8th Sphere which
Steiner described as a dark realm of mud where humans will be like
slugs. - In Future Jupiter, which is Heaven, we see that we are
angels but realize that we are going to have to assist the subhumans
who have fallen into a lower realm.
Love starts when we push aside our ego and make room for someone else. (Rudolf Steiner) |
Cardinal judgment stripes |
- That's going to
be our job, and we'll find ourselves fighting against evil, evil,
black magicians who have higher ranks than human beings. - Then
we'll go on to the next sphere, which is the 6th Sphere when it
reaches the 6th cycle of the 6th inner cycle that is 666, and that
is when the final judgment comes. - When that happens, Satan and
all his cohorts will be thrown into the Lake of Fire.
Elvis given chances all along the way |
- This does
not mean it's the end of the subhuman's existence, it's not, but they can't
go forward with us to the Sun. - Because in the 7th Sphere, the
Vulcan, we will actually be united with the Sun again as we were in
the beginning at the 1st Sphere. - What happens to the lower
beings, they are not permanently anniliated because there is no
permanent hell. - You are given chances all along the way to
either fall or rise and that is a personal choice for a human who
has freedom.
Avichi men |
- Even the hierarchies had to make this decision
when they had human freedom and that's why some of them have fallen
and are in this realm. - These are called the Avichi men, or
Avichi
and they are in fact, people who are possessed by demons in our time
and have chosen to be possessed by demons because that is the only
way you can be possessed. -
In the 6th Sphere they will meet judgment and cast into this realm
and for a great while they'll be in darkness.
Beings of time endure |
- What is called eternity or foreverness will end and endurance,
duration then becomes the sequence of time. - Which is actually
pervasive and goes in both directions at one time and on Vulcan,
they will have to wait, and in the 7th dimension we're starting all
over again. - We'll be Archai all over again, beings of time,
fire spirits by then.
The time has come to realize that supersensible knowledge has now to arise from the materialistic grave. (Rudolf Steiner) |
Elemental beings |
- The other spirits who have fallen back will become nature
spirits, and they will become elemental beings. - They will have
to start all over again on the golden chain of spheres. - So they
are not ever thrown out, nothing is wasted in creation and there is
no such thing as permanent hell, but it sure looks like it for those
trapped in time in a realm that burns them.
You will not be good teachers if you focus only on what you do and not upon who you are. (Rudolf Steiner) |
Chosen member of the 8th Sphere |
- But what burns you are your unfinished, unrequited and
unresolved desires are a fiery nature that burn you even now. -
When people talk about the 8th Sphere it's happening right now and
you can look in someone's face and see if they're in hell. - If
they're in this fiery realm and they desire to continue in that
realm, then they become 'chosen' members of the 8th Sphere.
The sun with loving light makes bright for me each day, the soul with spirit power gives strength unto my limbs. In sunlight shining clear I revere, Oh God, the strength of humankind, which thou has planted in my soul, that I may with all my might, may love to work and learn. From thee stream light and strength to thee rise love and thanks. (Rudolf Steiner) |
People reveal themselves completely only when
they are thrown out of the customary conditions of their life.
