Obtaining Human Blood

[Monica]

Ah, answers are but stepping stones to new questions. Sometimes you have to step back from questions and answers themselves and begin to see the massive canyon your stream of questions and answers have been carving over many years. It may be surprising.

That's a challenging question. In the context of the Golden Dawn I believe it means to become more aware of your total self. They frame it in the sense of getting in contact with and then embodying the inner genius, or higher self, thus elevating oneself to a increasingly expansive state of awareness in consciousness. Thus, I think their concept is actually more in line with what you are suggesting, an elevation of perspective to being more inclusive of all those things around oneself.

My definition, personally, is a little different however (although perhaps some Golden Dawn magicians would agree with me). I believe in actual transmutation of the soul, even possible in a human vehicle. I believe the human vehicle is capable of increasing its frequency to accept greater degrees of light and by this method one can literally mutate (or transmute) themselves (mutation is the mode of motion in evolution, in my opinion) in to higher states of bodily being. The advantage of doing that from here, in a physical body, as opposed to simply dwelling in a higher body is that the bridge is built and both higher and lower are brought in to contact with eachother. This is the difference between having a wonderful idea and creating that wonderful idea in the physical.

Thus, I will tell you in the most obvious way possible, I believe humans being "asleep" are demi-gods and goddesses whom have gone behind the veil of themselves to discover something. What we are learning that we are discovering is more phenomenal, magical and magnificent than we could ever have imagined.

Unlike most people who think in this vein I am a little extreme, I believe it is possible to do this in life, in a body, living and breathing. I believe this is actually the natural way for things to occur and is a natural part of evolution. I think that in the past we all lived like that but this plan was devised so that we could discover something. I think what we wanted to discover was our complete nature. The only way to do that is to explore it in all of its possible parts and relationships.

I believe that the philosophy of just focusing on material life, of 'not worrying about getting there', of 'everything happens automatically' and the like are actually negative philosophy duds circulated to stifle curiosity, fervor and the intensity of seeking. I think that the "just stay grounded" philosophy is also one of these (not always) in that it is something which is often used to avoid 'hard work' in consciousness. I think philosophies that focus themselves on comfort, and "letting it be" are pseudo-positive philosophies which lead people away from deep questioning and hard penetration of one's veils.

I think being "more than humans" means taking conscious responsibility for the will and how it is used. It is choosing to create your life, rather than just living it. I don't mean in the positive path vs negative path kind of way either, I mean becoming a co-Creator. The paths are just vehicles to this.

Well said! I agree 100%! with all of it, but especially the bold parts.
