THE HEMETIC LAWS

The seven Cosmic Laws of 
Hermes Trismegistos = Thot

All Philosophy is based on seven Cosmic Laws. Thot, the Egyptian God of WISDOM = Hermes Trismegistos, "The triple great Hermes" of the ancient Greeks, had once written them down on Emerald Tables, so that MEN would know and follow them. These tables have not been found up to this day. These LAWS are valid in all of CREATION, in all Planes of Being. They are eternal and unchangeable. But above all LAWS stands the UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND THE GRACE OF GOD, able to transcend all LAWS!

 
1. The Principle of SPIRIT ( MIND)

Everything is Spiritual. The Source of LIFE is CREATIVE SPIRIT, without bounds and limitations. The Universe is mental. Spirit / Mind stands above matter - rules matter.
The Consciousness determines the BEING. Thoughts are creative and changing powers; they are the means of CREATION. The IMAGINATION creates in Visualization. The intensity of the inner wishing and longing is an important factor of CREATION. And just like HIS WORD, MAN's WORD creates, too - as the action of his mind. So every MAN is able to leave his state of ignorance and consciously enter the STATE OF KNOWLEDGE OF LIFE at any time, thus accepting the Heritage of MAN's PERFECTION and of CREATION. He thus changes his world and creates it new.
Be aware of your thoughts - they can create and destroy! Be conscious of your responsibility! Which thoughts and words come from you? What do you CREATE with them? Are they worlds of LOVE - creatures of LOVE? 


2. The Principle of Cause and Effect = KARMA

Each cause has an effect - each effect has its cause. Each action has a certain energy which requires that the like energy returns to its source, to its creator.
The effect equals the cause in quality and quantity. 'Equal creates equal'. Action = Reaction.
The cause can be on many different planes. Everything happens in accordance to the LAW. Each MAN is CREATOR, carrier and surmounter of his fate. 
Every thought, every feeling, every action is a cause which has an effect. So there is no blame, no guilt or fault, no sin, no 'chance' and no luck - only cause and effect. Between the cause and its effect many centuries and incarnations could extend - as TIME does not exist. 
"Luck" and "chance" are expressions of a LAW not yet acknowledged.
Why do you have certain traits? Where do your patterns of behaviour derived from? Be aware of the effect of all your thoughts, feelings and actions! Let go of hatred, aggressiveness and fear and open yourself to Unconditional TRUST and LOVE. You alone are responsible for yourself!


3. The Principle of Correspondence or Analogy

As above - so below, as below - so above. As within - so without, as without - so within. As in great - so in small, as in small, so in great.
For everything there is in this world, there exists an analogy on every plane of BEING.
So you can realize the great in the small, and the smallest in the greatest. The way you are yourself determines the way you experience the ouside world. Vice versa, the outside world is your mirror. When you change, everything around you will change.


4. The Principle of Resonance or Attraction

Like attracts like and will be enforced by like. Unlike repels each other.
Your personal behaviour determines your personal conditions and the total conditions of your life.
Negativity attracts more negativity, darkness attracts more darkness, aggression attracts aggression, hate attracts hate, sorrow attracts sorrow, addiction attracts addiction, so if you do not stop, reconsider and reverse your path, your negativity will increase, leading into a downward spiral that - at a certain point - cannot be stopped and leads into depression, desperation, disaster and death.


5. The Principle of Harmony and Balance

Harmony is the flow of life. Everything strives for harmony, for balance. The stronger determines the weaker and makes it equal to itself.
Life is harmonious togetherness, the GIVING and TAKING of elements and powers being active in CREATION. By grasping and holding on we create a blockage which in turn is leading to sickness and death as a result of ERROR: LIFE supports only what furthers LIFE, and anything causing a blockage weakens and must go, because it is a hindrance to LIFE itself. LIFE is mutual balance or compensation, eternal movement. Different effects are finding to a balance, so that as soon as possible harmony is restored. Life is continuous GIVING and TAKING. The universe lives by dynamic balance in EASINESS, HARMONY and LOVE. GIVING and TAKING are different aspects of the Cosmic Energy Stream just as both are aspects of the same coin. While giving freely what we are seeking, we are letting PLENTY into our lives. While giving JOY, PEACE and LOVE, we are creating JOY, PEACE and LOVE which bring about HAPPINESS, SUCCESS and ABUNDANCE into our lives.  We will only be able to attract LOVE, PEACE, HAPPINESS, SUCCESS AND ABUNDANCE when we are able to open ourselves to it. In order to open yourself, you should let go of all your conscious and unconscious thoughts of lack and limitations within yourself and open yourself to the NEW, THE UNBOUNDED, LIMITLESS. For he who does not live PLENTY, will not find it.  
Open yourself to ABUNDANCE. Do not enriched yourself at the expense of others. You have to pay for everything you get (unless it is GIVEN to you). GIVE in order to RECEIVE!
Above this LAW - above EACH LAW - is the GRACE of GOD!


6. The Principle of Rhythm or Vibration

Everything flows in and flows out again. Everything has its tides. Everything rises and falls. Everything is vibration. 
Nothing is static - everything is moving. The even movement of the pendulum is evident in everything. The swing of the pendulum to the one side equals the swing of the pendulum to the other side. Rhythm equalizes.
Overcome rigidity and live flexibility. Whatever is rigid must break apart.

 
7. The Principle of Polarity and Sexuality

Everything has a pair of poles. Everything has a pair of contrasting aspects. The likes and unlikes are the same.
Contrasts are the same by their nature. GOD'S TRUTH IS ONE.
Only in the low-vibrating worlds, like in the 3rd dimension, the aspects have different signs marking them as "contrasts", and thus have different vibrational frequencies. The human brain is three-dimensionally oriented; for that reason the ONE-NESS or SAME-NESS appears PARADOX to the polaric mind. But each PARADOXES should be brought together - in the middle -  only this way we can achieve TRUTH. Or else, our truth are only half truth. And TRUTH cannot be understood as it can only be grasped within the HEART! Within our 3rd dimension we should learn to recognize the ONE-NESS OF ALL - by LEARNING UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and LIVING this LOVE = THAT is our GOAL IN LIFE -on planet Earth! When we are living in UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, we are living in NON-POLARITY.
 
Do not judge or evaluate others. Do not raise yourself above others. Accept the other opinions. Everyone is right. Everything is justified. Everything is well.

Sexuality is in everything. Both sexual aspects is ONENESS at the same time.
Sexuality manifests itself in everything. Everything has its male and female elements. Everything is male and female in ONE. Sexuality strives for ONE-NESS, whence in actuality sexuality IS ONE-NESS or UNITY, as you can observe with TAO. The NON-POLARITY UNITY consists of the male and the female aspects just as the SEA and WAVES that cannot be separated - both is ONE - and ONE is not without the other.
You, yourself are male and female at the same time. Live your male and your female aspects equally. Be balanced - be in your middle or center - BE ONE.

MEDITATE JUST BY WATCHING YOUR MIND

Our mind is a misery and if one wants to be blissful with it, it is impossible! The Mind is a dis-ease, this is absolutely so, it is a restlessness. However, one can transcend mind, one need not remain in it, one can hop out of it. And it is your choice and decision to be or not to be in it or not!

The whole phenomenon of religion depends on this possibility, that man can take a jump out of the mind. And that’s what meditation is all about: the art of getting out of the mind. And it is not difficult at all, it is very simple. Just watch the mind, with no judgement. Don’t be a judge, just be a witness, mirror-like.

The mirror does not say ‘How beautiful, how ugly, how disgusting, it simply reflects and remains silent. That’s the way of the meditator: he becomes a mirror, he looks at the mind. Thousands of thoughts and desires and memories go on passing day in, day out — he goes on watching, with no judgement at all. He does not say ‘This is good, this is bad, this should not be, this should be, I should choose — this is a gem, what a beautiful thought! And this is a disgusting thought, this should not be allowed to enter my mind.’ If you say those things you get involved. You start getting inside the mind; you become entangled and you lose meditation.

Meditation simply means a choiceless awareness. It takes a little time because it is a knack to learn, but if one goes on trying — whenever you have time just go on trying. Whenever you have any time close your eyes and watch the mind. Enjoy it. It is far more interesting than going to any movie, than sitting like a stupid person before a TV set.

And what do they go on watching? — the same murder and the same violence and rape and the same old stories, the same triangles: two women, one man or two men, one woman. It is such a stupidity! Man has been writing the same story again and again and there are fools who go on watching them. This is the marketing strategy in the movie industry - the story is the same, the plot is the same, the strategy is the same, nothing new in it. But maybe different actors and different titles in a different movie settings. That is all!

Have you ever for a second think, that is far more interesting to watch your own mind because it is far more insane and far more inventive too. If you simply go on watching it you will be surprised that you will find more postures for love-making than any psychologist has ever discovered. You will defeat all Masters-and-Johnsons and Kinsey reports and the old master Vatsyayana and all his postures for love making. Your mind is perfectly capable of inventing such absurd postures. The mind is so interesting… You will do all kinds of violence and all kinds of murders and you will commit suicide and everything will happen — simply go on watching. And the miracle is? You don’t have to pay for it!

Then by and by this whole scene starts disappearing. As you are becoming more alert it starts disappearing, as you become conscious of it, it loses its grip on you. Then, one day the greatest miracle in your life happens: your mind simply disappears and there is vast emptiness and nothing to observe. You are left in absolute solitude — that is meditation — and out of that solitude thousands of flowers of bliss, of beauty, of truth, of god, bloom but most of all.....you finally find yourself there. Your true s-elf!

MEDITATION IS THE CURE TO ALL DIS-EASE OF MANKIND

Next time you have a headache try a small meditative technique, just experimentally – then you can go on to bigger diseases and bigger symptoms. When you have a headache just try a small experiment. Sit silently and watch it, look into it – not as if you are looking at an enemy, no. If you are looking at it as your enemy, you will not be able to look rightly. You will avoid – nobody looks at the enemy directly; one avoids, one tends to avoid.

Look at it as your friend. It is your friend; it is in your service. It is saying, “Something is wrong – look into it.”
Just sit silently and look into the headache with no idea of stopping it, with no desire that it should disappear, no conflict, no fight, no antagonism. Just look into it, into what it is. Watch, so if there is some inner message, the headache can give it to you. It has a coded message. And if you look silently you will be surprised. If you look silently three things will happen.

First: the more you look into it, the more severe it will become. And then you will be a little puzzled: “How is it going to help if it is becoming more severe?” It is becoming more severe because you have been avoiding it. It was there but you were avoiding it; you were already repressing – even without the aspro you were repressing it. When you look into it, repression disappears. The headache will come to its natural severity. Then you are hearing it with unplugged ears, no wool around your ears.

First thing: it will become severe. If it is becoming severe, you can be satisfied that you are looking rightly. If it does not become severe, then you are not looking yet; you are still avoiding. Look into it – it becomes severe. That is the first indication that, yes, it is in your vision.

The second thing will be that it will become more pin-pointed; it will not be spread over a bigger space. First you were thinking, “It is my whole head aching.” Now you will see it is not the whole head, it is just a small spot. That is also an indication that you are gazing more deeply into it. The spread feeling of the ache is a trick – that is a way to avoid it. If it is in one point then it will be more severe. So you create an illusion that it is the whole head which is aching. Spread all over the head, then it is not so intense at any point. These are tricks that we go on playing.

Look into it and the second step will be that it comes to be smaller and smaller and smaller. And a moment comes when it is just the very point of a needle – very sharp, immensely sharp, very painful.

You have never seen such pain in the head. But very much confined to a small spot. Go on looking into it. And then the third and the most important thing happens. If you go on looking at this point when it is very severe and confined and concentrated at one point, you will see many times that it disappears.

When your gaze is perfect it will disappear. And when it disappears you will have the glimpse of where it is coming from – what the cause is. When the effect disappears you will see the cause. It will happen many times. Again it will be there. Your gaze is no more that alert, that concentrated, that attentive – it will come back. Whenever your gaze is really there, it will disappear; and when it disappears, hidden behind it is the cause. And you will be surprised: your mind is ready to reveal what the cause is.

And there can be a thousand and one causes. The same alarm is given because the alarm system is simple. There are not many alarm systems in your body. For different causes the same alarm is given. You may have been angry lately and you have not expressed it. Suddenly, like a revelation, it will be standing there. You will see all your anger that you have been carrying, carrying … like pus inside you. Now this is too much, and that anger wants to be released. It needs a catharsis. Cathart! – and immediately you will see the headache has disappeared. And there was no need for the aspro, no need for any treatment.

HOW ALTERING ATTITUDES HELPS

We cannot choose the circumstances in which we live. There are times we cannot guard our lives against accidents, misfortunes, or even tragedies. If the country's economy goes downhill and we are out of job, we cannot singlehandedly do anything about it. If a relation dies in a road accident, we are powerless to stop it happening. Life is full of incidents and accidents which are set in motion despite our wishes.

But we are free to choose our response to such accidents. We cannot choose the hand of cards life deals out to us, but we can decide how to play them. We have the power to change our attitudes. We can choose to be happy and grateful for the good things in our lives, or we can choose to be miserable and full of self-pity about the bad things.

Unfortunately, many of us have developed attitudes of mind which do not make us happy. These attitudes are often ingrained ways of looking at things, or responding to events, which may not even be obvious to the person who has them. Yet they are there.

Take for instance, a perfectionist. A perfectionist attitude is one that requires too much not only of others, but also of oneself. The perfectionist wants everything to be just so all the time. Naturally, he or she is often disappointed.

The perfectionist expects a lot of his or herself. Perhaps he or she is the perfect husband or wife who works night and day to keep up to the standard of living. He or she expects a lot of others too. He or she is always nagging his or her co-workers or employees about being efficient - or he or she round up things after them, a martyr all the way. He or she complains about slaving away in the office and the thoughtlessness of others.

The problem is not his or her office or co-workers or employees. The problem is his or her own perfectionist expectations. And one way of making him or her happy would be to drop this particular attitude, expect less from him or herself and others, and be content with a slightly unefficient work. If he or she can do this, he or she will be more content.

Our attitudes which hurt people are self-pity, anger, fear, self-obsession, pride and its companion insecurity, and trying to control others. These attitude actually hurt the person who holds them. It is impossible to be angry and happy at the same time. It is impossible to be both full of self-pity and happy.

Changing atttitudes is not at all easy. Many people refuse to even try. They say they are angry perhaps, because other people treat them badly - thus justifying their own attitudes. They cannnot see that they are hurting themselves. But changing attitudes is possible. For those who have courage and persistence to try, it can be very rewarding.

ATTITUTE - by Charles Swindoll

I am in support of Mr Charles Swindoll on 'Attitude'.....

"The longer I live, the more I realise the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think, say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skills. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. ... I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes."
