“The eternal order is a mathematical order, not a religious order, yet mathematics defends what religious people traditionally believe in: an afterlife, a paradise, a coming together and reunion of souls (you re-encounter everyone you ever loved). The concept of the soul is bound up with eternal and temporal considerations, with mind and matter, with science and mathematics. You cannot understand reality unless you can understand what your soul is, yet the soul is the least understood and most mysterious thing there has ever been. Only mathematics reveals its secrets, yet mathematics is the most feared and hated subject on earth, and commonly not even regarded as real, just as the soul is often dismissed as unreal. What a world!”

“Our entire purpose is to solve the ultimate problems of existence. The task of the meditators and the mindfulness advocates is to flee from every problem, solve no problems, and become animals, devoid of consciousness, untroubled by judgment. They dream of living non-judgmentally in the moment. That’s what cows do. The message of Eastern mysticism and New Ageism is Become a Cow!”

“Mathematics and thought are ontologically the same thing. Have you understood? You are a thinking entity inhabiting a world created from thought. “God” doesn’t make the world out of nothing. God makes the world out of thought, his own thought. God is himself thought, and you yourself are an eternal, necessary node of God. This reality is just “God”, in all of his different monadic nodes, thinking about things and calculating the best answer to everything.”

“Suggestion is the greatest power in human culture. The sooner people understand that, the better. Let’s not bother teaching “mindfulness” to children in schools. Instead, let’s teach them the secrets of the mind, including the vast power of the subjective mind, and how it can be controlled by the objective mind and the extraordinary potency of suggestion, of authoritative command.”

“The hilarious irony is that Buddhists - who deny the existence of the self - are the most self-obsessed people you can find. The idea of karma is a clear marker of self-obsession. People actually believe that the vast cosmos is infatuated about what they do - as opposed to completely indifferent - and goes to all the trouble of rearranging itself to teach them personal karmic "lessons.”

“All angels are natural practitioners of OBEs since they do not have bodies. They can view all of the world, and go instantaneously to anywhere in the world, and can also assume bodies to interact with the world when that is required. A human becomes “angelic” when they leave their body – via the route of deep dreaming – and achieves disembodied access to the world via lucidly entering the public dream of the Collective Unconscious. The person is now in the world, but without a body, just like an angel. OBEs and NDEs are angelic experiences. They are all about the human being freed from the body. They are all about the metamorphosis of a human into a higher being.”

“Aten, a minor solar god – a red disc from which long rays emanated and reached down to earth – was converted into the supreme God, in fact the one and only god, by Akhenaten, the heretic pharaoh. Aten evolved into Jehovah, and Akhenaten’s religion evolved into Jewish monotheism. Akhenaten, or someone very close to him, is the true Moses of the Bible, standing up for the One God against Egyptian polytheism, and leading a mass Exodus of his monotheistic followers away from pagan Egypt to a new Promised Land. Jehovah, therefore, is just a modification of a minor Egyptian sun god.”

“Light has no mass and takes up no space. A black hole singularity is not that from which light cannot escape. A black hole singularity is light. It is that from which mass cannot escape. All material mass has been converted into light, hence is now massless. The only way you can fit mass into a Singularity is by converting it into massless light.”

“The secret of existence is that, ontologically, mathematics is indistinguishable from light, and light is the basis of mind. Your mind is nothing other than a complete and consistent set of natural photons. Photons have no extension in space and time, meaning that they are outside space and time. They are in the frequency Singularity of immortal things rather than the spacetime world of mortal things. Light World is Soul World, and only math is relevant to this world. Science, the subject that deals with matter, has no application to Soul World. Photons have no mass, hence are not part of material existence. Photons have no extension, no dimensions, and do not experience space and time, all of which is exactly what we require of the immortal soul. When you switch on a light, light does not flood into spacetime. Rather, spacetime interacts with Soul World – spacetime flows through Soul World – producing the characteristic glow of light. Photons are the thoughts of the Cosmic Soul.”
