The Principle of Mentalism
The Principle of Mentalism
The ALL is Mind. The Universe is Mental.
The “ALL” – the material universe/phenomena of life/energy/universe – is spirit.
But may be considered and thought of as a universal living being/hive mind.
We live within this collective mind.
Apply the mental laws of Self Mastery and the ability to command our thoughts through the power of will –
Enter the sacred psychic temples through the recognition of the states of deep gnosis and applied metaphysics through understanding the light body.
Mastery of the Mind is above all.
“He who grasps the truth of the Mental nature of the Universe is well advanced on the path to mastery.“
The Principle of Correspondence
“As above so below, as below so above.”
As the roots of the tree equal its branches, so do our inner worlds match the outer worlds.
As the leaves of the tree nourish the roots, so does the mind, when set free realize its truth. Nourish yourself with freedom and allow yourself to discover your own personal truth.
Everything is a Balance.
This shows a pathway that may be traversed between many areas in life, especially word usage and language. How we are communicating with our lexicon.
This principle is on universal application and manifestation, on the various planes of the material, mental, and spiritual universe – it is a Universal Law.
This is considered to be one of the most important principles and mental instruments/tools for the Seeker by which Man is able to pry aside the obstacles which hide the unknown.
This tool has been used to pierce the veil since discovered. ( The Principle Of Correspondence )
Studying the Microcosm of our being empowers us to discover the Macrocosm, and creates opportunity for us to reason with the intelligent infinity from the known into the unknown.
The Principle of Vibration
This principle expresses the different states of matter as they’re have come to be known.
- Solids
- Liquids
- Gases
- Plasma
- Bose-Einstein Condensates
The main differences are the density and structure of atoms that are constantly in motion.
Energy, Mind and even Spirit result largely from varying states of this “matter.”
The density of matter/energy is based upon the frequency that it resonates at.
This is also true with different planes of energy and force, which are but varying degrees of vibration.
This is true about the mental planes who’s “states” depend on a vibratory frequency. And understanding of this principle along with certain formulas a Hermetic Student may command their states of being at will and also assist others with learning about their own minds depending on their own level of understanding.
“He who understands the Principle of Vibration, has Grasped the Scepter of Power.”
What this means to me is being able to understand your specific vibration and the musical ordinance that is your being, one may begin to understand themselves and how their vibration affects others in a way of which is either positive or negative. How our music mixes with other peoples music, how we are playing our song ion accordance with the Universe.
The Principle of Polarity
“Everything is Dual; everything has poles’ everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in varying degree of the scale/spectrum; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.”
The Kybalion
Reconcile the self and the emotions with this practice and principle through application into the mental/emotional body. Every thought/feeling/emotion has its opposite. These opposites can be reconciled into unity, through identification of the self. And finding likeness within the understanding found.
Extremes are met in the middle by balance of the perspectives or dichotomies. This touches into the balance of everything is/isn’t at the same time, ALL truths are but HALF TRUTHS, for there is always more to learn, to understand, to be explored and created. We are free to create the lives that we choose. We are free to explore our means here in this existence. Every truth is half-false, and there are two sides to everything. Through the active seeking of the spirit through this principle we are able to gain clarity of being-ness. Of who we are and how we align in this life, what our ideals are.
This is a principle of paradox. Of Cognitive Dissonance.
It is also where our healing begins with the reconciliation of our “negative emotions” into more positive ones. This is the Alchemy of the Soul/Spirit. This requires that we release into catharsis of mind and simply allow whilst remembering the sacred pearls we have found along/throughout our journey.
Take like and dislike for instance.
As life lives us we are given opportunities to experience the unknown and continuously grow into our being.
Through this process and application of polarization we are able to seek identity within the infinite ocean of experience and the journey we take as souls/spirits.
And we find a death/rebirth in every single moment. This is known as the Art of Polarization as we flow in and out of “life/embodiment”
We find an ebb and flow in and out of our truth.
The Principle of Rhythm
In connection with the Principle of Polarity, there is also the movement that we experience between the highs and the lows of our being. A pendulum of ebb and flow into the mysteries of our being.
For those that have found centralization of the being and honed a core frequency, we are able to apply the Mental Law Of Neutralization by applied understanding of this principle.
There is always a action and reaction. An advance and a retreat. A rise and a fall. This is a part of the affairs of the Universal Experience and Great Breath/Motion we are each an integral part of. As the Adept gains Self-Mastery, only through his will is he able to remain at a point of “rest” while “working.”
The Hierophant or Neophyte does this consciously/unconsciously more or less. The Adept studies and comprehends the Triggers to become a Master of the Self. Through the use of the Will and Mental Application of the Law of Neutralization we are able to create our own “eye” in any “storm.”
We create methods for counteracting, neutralizing, and applying these “understandings” in many forms and create a firmness in our Sense of/for Being.
The Principle of Cause and Effect
Everything happens for a reason, as there is a Matrix/Potentiator/Significator in every moment.
A catalyst of life that travels through each of us simultaneously creating growth and evolution. For every cause there is an effect. As the Adept becomes a master in the experience and “GAME of LIFE.”
We recognize this as Law. There are those that are playing as pawns on the Chessboard of Life and there those that are playing the Game itself. There are the Movers. The ones who see the pieces and see hold the ability to initiate catalyst or create moves. We have recognized our power and command. We help to play the game of Life, on many different level. We utilize the principle instead of being a tool of the principle itself. The Masters obey the Causation of the Higher Planes, but we assist to Rule on our own plane by keeping order and rule within each of our respective circles.
The Principle of Gender
There is gender manifested in everything. Masculine and Feminine. This is true within the Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Planes.
One the Physical and human plane this manifest and Sex(literal/biological), while on the spiritual planes it takes on higher forms. However the principle remains the same as a consideration of the dichotomy and polar regions of LIFE itself. It works in the means of understanding Generation, Regeneration, and Creation. Understanding the energy of certain creations and the gender of the essences contained therein enables a working of finer details and subtler energies. Yin/Yang. As this principle also coincides with the principle of polarity, it deals more so with the creation and synthesizing of new generative models.
