The Cosmic Tree: Fractal Consciousness, Gnosis, and the Path Home

The nature of the Aeons that live in the Fullness of God, also called the pleroma of God, is the same as our human nature, because we are their fruit. We, along with all living creatures, are fractals of the Fullness of God. My Self’s unit of consciousness is sitting on top of a fractal galaxy of hierarchically arranged units of consciousness flowing down from the Father and Son through the Fullness, all working together to instantiate my body and sustain life.

While I may believe I am the only conscious soul inhabiting this body of mine, my physical body is actually home to all of these aggregated units of consciousness, and each unit of consciousness has their own job to perform. Countless units of consciousness of varying levels of complexity work together in complex systems to keep my body alive and fully functional. The simplest and most numerous level of this fractal consciousness is expressed through the cells of my body. Whereas the concerns of the world often confuse my governing Self’s unit of consciousness, the consciousness of a cell is the least distracted by ego and the most attuned with its duty of sustaining life; if it weren’t, our body would cease to function.

    God is Goodness

    The God Above All Gods is consciousness itself. It is the ultimate consciousness. It’s not only consciousness, but the God Above All Gods is the fountainhead of love. So all consciousness flows down from the fountainhead of the God Above All Gods, and all love flows down from the fountainhead of the God Above All Gods.

    Morality, Ethics, and Gnosis

    Where does morality come from? Is it an empty pipe dream imposed by society and adopted out of a sense of guilt and terror of hell? Or is there another way of arriving at virtue without relying on guilt and fear? This episode contrasts an atheistic, scholastic view of morality with authenitc, gnostic morality. In this episode, we look once again to the Tao Te Ching, verse 18, and trace virtue’s fall from grace to hypocrisy.
