Tree of Life Meditation System -- Day 1 -- Amen

Hetep Everyone,

Here, is my meditation objective for this meditation cycle: I want to see my transformation into a Divine Being as I learn to pause and consciously observe my decision processes before I act.

What does this mean? One of the things that I learned in the last meditation cycle was how very important it is for me to work on my transformation as a Divine Being. By this I mean that I already am a Divine Being; however, that part of me is still submerged by my ego (Auset). I must transform my ego so that it becomes receptive to my divinity, allowing it (Ausar) to resurrect itself. That is what this entire journey is about for me, living as Ausar. From my understanding, pausing (Men Ab -- Heru) and observing with the eye of Tehuti is the key to living as Ausar 24 hours a day.

I want to become conscious of the repetition of the processes I use to make decisions. I have been looking for a way to transform without feeling that I am forced to do so. One of the affirmations in Ra Un Nefer Amen's Tree of Life Meditation System states, "God does not compel me to do what is right..." If there is any force applied at all it is done, not with a whip, but Maat's feather. What if the mere at of observing myself without judgment is a major key to assisting my transformation. I think the theory is worth a meditation cycle, especially since it will help me to stop judging myself.

Here is how I came to this idea: DNA contains a replicating function. In an earlier post, I compared this replication to our thought processes -- how we repeat the same thoughts over and over again while replaying the accompanying images. I was really good at using this replication to produce actions that led to consequences that I really did not want. I realized that if I paused the thought, I could pause the replication and intensification of the emotions. As a result, I'm much better at transforming my emotions.

I'm still growing into the application of this understanding, however, which is the reason for this cycle's objective of pausing and observing. During the time I am able to pause, it is my intention to apply a formula that has come to me: From form to formlessness = transformation/reformation. In observing the formlessness of form, I wish to perceive better images, thoughts, and affirmations, which should stimulate better transformations (realities), leading to my Divinity.

Not pausing means that I automatically repeat similar thoughts, feelings and actions -- the same reality that I already know; thus, no transformation.

Here is the Law of Amen, personalized form the words of Ra Un Nefer Amen in his book, Maat: the 11 Laws of God.

Amen: I am made in the likeness of a peace that nothing can disturb. I reclaim my peace that I may attain to the reason I have come into existence -- the enjoyment of life.

How do I break the Law of Amen by not pausing and observing?

I deny the formlessness of Amen and thus the potential to create what is yet to be born.

That is all for now. I wish you great fortune. Until next time,
Hetep

Tree of Life Meditation System -- Day 15 -- Heru

Hetep Everyone,

In a reading that I did using the Oracle cards of Tehuti, concerning my role in God's Divine plan for me, I received positive Maat and negative Ausar. It took me a while to grow into the understanding of how I could use this information. First, I was flattered that I was actually learning the Law, but I was deeply ashamed of what the combined metutu meant. I knew the Law, but not how to apply it.

I was reminded of a quote from Ra Un Nefer Amen's book, Tree of Life Meditation System, pages 231-232:
"It is of utmost importance to understand that spiritual growth does not take place from studying of scriptures, spiritual literature, doing rituals, meditating, deity or ancestor possession, etc. They are merely means of preparing you to live truth at the crossroads."

The Maat/Ausar reading warned me against having too much knowledge without any understanding of the All and that placed me in the midst of evil. I've made some mistakes. The mistakes have been worse, because of my greater potential for misunderstanding. I knew that I needed to cultivate a greater understanding of Ausar, but I didn't know how. What I did know to do was to apply a greater effort in sharing and loving unconditionally with a compassionate understanding that I needed a whole picture before making decisions and judgments.

Knowing my need to develop my aspects of Maat and Ausar meant that I would be able to successfully practice these aspects only when I could stop and think about what I was doing. Given my weak skills in Men Ab (Heru, waking trance meditation), I felt inadequate.

One of the things that I have been doing is developing techniques to stimulate my Ra (life force energy). This seems to be working. I want to project light energy all of the time. I used to fear that I would drain my own life force by doing this, but I actively generate this energy every day, filling my being with it so that I have an abundance for my Self and enough to project to others. In fact, the act of projecting the energy helps to restore the energy I project. In essence, sharing light energy amplifies the energy so that it grows exponentially.

As an example of what I'm talking about, for each person you share the light energy with, you receive the light energy back like 10-fold. The energy amplifies the energies of all spheres on the Tree of Life. I am beginning to believe that learning to cultivate this energy and projecting it to others in its purest form is one of the main reasons that we are here on this physical plane.

The upshot of actively cultivating my Ra is that I'm feeling more comfortable with my efforts. As I share this energy, I imagine my Ausar (Divine Being) sharing energy with the Ausar energy of others. I like this imagery because it is pure. When I think of someone else's Ausar, I imagine my pineal gland connecting with theirs. In that sense, there is no judgment of the person because I only see the pineal gland and it is pure melanin. This helps me to be much more compassionate, especially if I give the energy to someone with whom I have a problem. If Ausar meets Ausar, there is no doubt that the problem will be resolved.

As for Heru, I am more hopeful for improving my Men Ab skills than ever before.

Well, that's it for now. I wish you great fortune. Until next time,
Hetep

Tree of Life Meditation System -- Day 21 -- Amen

Hetep Everyone,

Well, we've made it. We have reached the last day of the meditation system, Day 21. This day is dedicated to Amen -- Peace -- Hetep.

Understanding Amen means understanding that everything -- thoughts, feelings, and actions, spiritual, mental, and physical -- all comes from a source that has no form and it all must return to that source. Time and space are not necessarily involved in this process, meaning things can happen instantly or they can take some time. Many variables such as perception and keeping the universe in balanced order are involved.

Okay, that's a lot to try and understand. What it means is that we have much more power over what we perceive to be our reality than we can imagine in our present circumstances (existing as beings in this physical earth realm). If we learn to change our perception, thus, change our emotions, then we can change our reality.

Western thought has trained us to believe that this is impossible and, for most of us, experience as reiterated this. I especially include myself in this statement. This is precisely why I am excited about gaining strong motivation to cultivate the skill of Men Ab and waking meditations. I will be putting theory into practice.

Through other meditation cycles, I have already experienced a change in my reality in terms of how well I get along with my family. This has happened without developing Men Ab skills. What treasures await me with Men Ab skills, applied along with nightly mediumistic trance skills. This is the inter-relationship and interdependence of Heru (Coming By Day) and Auset (Nightly Meditation) -- Mother and Son, Madonna and child.

I have eight more days before the next new moon. Since I was very displeased with my performance within the last week, I will repeat those nightly meditations in preparation for the new moon objective.

I want to thank you for joining me in my journey. I hope that my story is helping you with your journey.

That's it for now. Until next time,
Hetep

Tree of Life Meditation System -- Heru Revisited

Hetep Everyone,

Sleep is a powerful thing. You go to bed with questions and you wake up with answers. You go to bed confused and wake up with clarity. It's wonderful; therefore, I want to continue my discussion on Heru. Heru's Head

Heru was named Horus by the Greeks. Heru is the Christ image, the God who has arisen from the dead. In Kemetic (Ancient Egyptian) terminology, one interpretation of this is that Heru is the representation of our waking consciousness as opposed to the consciousness we use when we are asleep. Sleep is symbolic of death. Not knowing this or, perhaps, wanting to mislead others, Europeans misinterpreted the story of Heru and named the Kemetic book about him, The Book of the Dead. The True title is The Pert Em Hru (Becoming Awake or Coming Forth By Day). Heru is God arisen from the grave -- the grave being your subconscious mind. Heru is God freed from the limitations of simply running our subconscious bodily functions like blinking our eyes.

That same energy that moves our bodily functions in synchronous orbit moves the planets around the sun, the sun around the galaxy, the galaxy around the universe, and the universe around the cosmos. As such, we are made in the likeness of God -- As above, so below. We are creators with the potential to command that energy, but first, we must wake up to the conscious knowledge and experience of it.

On a personal note, I have information about my potential, but not conscious knowledge or experience of it. This is why I persist in my participation of the meditation cycles. I want to consciously experience the power of creating, not just my own reality, but a reality that is harmoniously aligned for all.

This is why I was so disappointed yesterday in my performance. I refused to acknowledge my own power, locking myself into activities that did not fit the form and function of my objectives. I did not use the tools available to me in the Heru Sphere of the Tree of Life. These tools consist of a type of meditation called Men Ab. Briefly, Men Ab consists of:

  • Pausing -- Stilling the Will -- Stop what you're doing
  • Breathing -- taking slow deep breaths similar to those used in nightly meditation
  • Using imagery like the Sesh Metut Neter -- imagine wearing the crown shown in the above picture to remind you of uncorrupted power
  • Chanting or singing the Hekau -- Words of Power given in the Metu Neter Vol. 1: The Great Oracle of Tehuti and the Egyptian System of Spiritual Cultivation
  • Thinking, feeling, or doing what will fit the form and function of your objectives

Using these tools could have restored me back to consciousness. Instead, I was locked in a trance state of dis-empowering thoughts and images all of which were emotional and fear-based. This is okay. It simply means that I am getting to the source of things that have blocked me. Those blockages are alive and want to stay that way.

The blockages are called Set, known today as Satan. Heru fights Set. Our enlightened consciousness (our True Will) fights to subdue our limited ego. This is so much more than mere "will power". Will power is forcing yourself to do something you know you should do. The Will of Heru is thinking, feeling, and acting based upon an indwelling intelligence (the subconscious mind of the True Self). The indwelling intelligence is directly linked to the perfectly balanced power that moves the universe in synchronous harmony. This means that thoughts, feelings, and actions based upon the True Will (Heru) cause no conflict and will result in immediate or eventual creative alignment. We access and cultivate this indwelling intelligence through our nightly meditations. The intelligence rises or resurrects itself through our waking consciousness (Heru), during the day, thus the true title of The Book of the Dead -- The Pert Em Hru (Becoming Awake or Coming Forth By Day)

Heru is symbolized as a hawk because in a hawk-like way, we must monitor our thoughts, feelings, and actions according to our True Will, protecting them from our limited ego (Set). During the day, Set produces for us a reality through images, beliefs, and affirmations. Like a hawk, we must learn to see through Set's illusions with clarity, using our inner eye (known as the Third Eye, Tehuti's Eye, the Pineal Gland) to follow our True Will as we create a more balanced reality.

Now, I am ready to talk about Het-Heru, but I will do so on a different post.

Until next time,
Hetep
