Famous Laurence Galian Quotes

“A Way is needed which contains a concept of Absolute Existence that includes both the Light and the Dark, and Life and Death. If, for instance, Christianity might see Lucifer as the complement and not the enemy, it might take a valuable step on the road to becoming more holistic and respectful of the human reality. If the Divine cannot partake of the Shadow, it cannot be the Divine, for the Divine cannot truly nourish humanity if it only feeds one pole of the human being.”

“Some scientists are saying that for some reason an advanced race of aliens might create such a computer game in order to see how their very remote ancestors (ancestors who may have lived thousands of years ago) lived and evolved. This is called an 'ancestor simulation'. Perhaps a very advanced race of aliens no longer needs physical bodies. A being from such an advanced race of aliens may want to create an 'ancestor simulation' program to experience what life was like when they had physical bodies, made love, felt physical pleasure, pain and had to work for a living.”

“How can intermediate level beings see or experience this artificial life? The answer is that we already have virtual reality goggles through which we can view, in three dimensions, sporting events on the opposite side of the world. Today you can purchase equipment that enables you to watch and listen to a professional basketball game that takes place in the United States while you are in your bedroom in Japan, wearing the virtual reality goggles and headphones. Imagine the authenticity, accuracy and realism of virtual reality that a civilization a thousand years more advanced than us can produce!”

“In the 1600s, the Peruvian Inquisition targeted wise Quechua and Aymara women, who kept the indigenous religion alive and often acted to empower their communities and protect them from colonial heads and officials. In 1591, the Brazilian Inquisition prosecuted the Portuguese witch Maria Gonçalves (also known as Burn-tail) for sexual witchcraft and for making powders from forest herbs. She challenged the bishop, saying that, if he preached from the pulpit, she preached from the cadeira (priestess chair).”

“It is quite possible that Barabbas was the crucified person. The name Barabbas means Son of the Father. 'Barabbas' (or 'Bar Abbas') is the Hellenized form of the Aramaic name Bar Abba, which means 'son of the father'. And the name 'Jesus' (from the Greek 'Yesous') is the Hellenized form of the Hebrew name Yeshua. Pilate was essentially asking the Jerusalem crowd: Who do you want me to release: Yeshua son of the Father or Yeshua son of the Father whom your followers call Messiah?" The fact that both men had the same name has been covered up by Catholic and Christian churches, but it is obvious that there was a great opportunity for confusion during this highly emotional, chaotic and devised moment.”

“An EXPERIENCE happens. Someone comes from a foreign country and for a while an experience happens. IT is about the experience, not the set of rules, laws and dogmas that results from the experience. A whirlwind appears for a while and then leaves. People then seek to copy the experience of the whirlwind by waving little fans. It is not possible to artificially preserve whirlwinds. Do not become spiritual taxidermists trying to preserve a dead animal. Do not accept the lifeless FORM for the dynamic CONTENT!”

“While psychologists will say that it is fear of rejection that stands between humanity and freedom, or deeper still, a public humiliation, the author believes that at the threshold to freedom, human beings (for some unknown reason - perhaps because of a collective trauma from the ancient past) imagine they will confront total annihilation. Nevertheless, maybe this is a good thing, for NO-THING stands between you and freedom.”

“The universe flows in two directions simultaneously. This flow is comparable to Alternating Current. Electronics teaches us that the flow of electricity in the wires in our walls, in our appliances, and so forth, actually changes direction and polarity at a rapid rate. This rapid changing of direction or polarity is that 'alternates' in Alternating Current.”

“The Spirit World is filled with power, substantiality, and presence. I recommend you work on changing your consciousness with regard to Spirit and begin to see Spirit as the Power Matrix from which the physical world manifests. As a person's spirit eyes start to open he or she will begin to realize that he/she has had it backwards all along...The Physical World is thin and gossamer compared to the Spirit Realm.”

“The pan-dimensional vibration is the sexual throbbing of the gods lovemaking - the pulsating heartbeat of the universe. The ancients declared, 'If you wish to speak with the gods, you must first know the language of the gods.' This is a language of vibration: light vibration and sound vibration. Sound is light that you can hear! The initiates not only played the Music of the Spheres, but also a system of musical notes (Sacred Tonal Sites that were Sacred Tonal Gates) which resonated the Music of the Earth. We communicate with the entire Cosmos (including all life in the cosmos) in a Symphony of Vibration.”

“It is well known in physics that when one compresses the mass of an object its potential energy increases exponentially. Coal is an example of such compression; nuclear fission another. There are several techniques in Qabalah for 'compressing' a text of scripture to 'increase' its 'power.' A book called the Cifri Ali is said to one of the books used by the Bektashis. It is a book revealed to Ali ('Alaihi Assalam) and secretly handed down to his descendants. Learned Şehy's are supposed to have learned from it and therefore to be able to practice divination.”

“Without naming anyone if you think for a moment, you will realize that some of the most well-known names on the spiritual 'lecture circuit' are scientists, not spiritual masters. A Ph.D. after one's name is almost mandatory to be considered an expert in some New Age circles, and the initials M.D., are almost equivalent to a kind of contemporary spiritual priesthood.”

“The 'man' from 'Sarman' relates to heredity, or a particular family. It also refers to the receptacle of an heirloom. The 'Sar' of 'Sarman' is defined as 'head.' In this sense, the 'head' is meant both literally as a part of the body, and in the meaning of elder one or master. Therefore, we may tentatively conclude that 'Sarman' means 'The Sovereign Receptacle of the Sacred.' Or, an alternative reading would be 'Those Whose Heads are Priceless.”

“The reality of the dualistic nature of the world will not change for those who are still lost in duality. However, your orientation toward that reality will change. You are just allowing that reality to arise within the TOTALITY of your being, rather than fragmenting your being by making value judgments. You will not be buying into choosing sides. In addition, when you allow your self to travel freely, the self will unerringly move and bring to you exactly those experiences, people and things that you need. A New World will be born from out of your Unicity.”

“An eighteenth-century Gujarati text of the Satpanth Nizari Isma'ilis tells of a renowned Isma'ili and Sûfî master imparting Tantric spiritual instruction to a Nath Siddha Jogi master. It includes both Islamic and Tantric terms, and demonstrates the intersection of these two traditions. A portion of this document has been published with a study by Dominique Sila Khan as "Conversation between Guru Hasan Kabiruddin and Jogi Kanipha: Tantra Revisited by the Isma'ili Preachers.”

“The Supreme Reality, also known as the Uncreated of the First Being, manifested its own fullness. For reasons which will become increasingly clear, Gnostics have always been reserved when it comes to naming this Absolute Reality. Another way of looking at the Supreme Reality is that there is a Reality behind everyday reality.”

“We suggest that you consistently work throughout your lifetime on the creation of a coherent and integral spirit body. If your mind never turns to the spiritual in life, why do you think it will turn to the spirit in death? If you are not 'at home' with things spiritual, why do you think you will be able to orient yourself when you are thrust into the spirit world? At best, you will be disoriented and uncomfortable.”

“Ancient and modern psychonauts (people who use natural psychedelic plants and mushrooms for spiritual purposes) have known about the Aeons for thousands of years. They design life-forms (for more information on this practice, consult the works of Rudolf Joseph Laurence Steiner). Their spiritual purpose in originating genetic life-forms is for the purpose of uttering an infinity of Divine Expressions. The Aeons created the Human Genome.”

“You have the means to direct knowledge of the spiritual worlds. You have the senses that will help you to perceive these subtle spheres. It only remains for you to develop your sleeping powers. The question should not be 'is there life after death', it should be 'what am I doing to awaken my faculties to perceive the spirit worlds?”

“Most of you likely recall the old spiritual: Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, where the Hebrews marched around the city walls, blew their horns, and shouted until "the walls came tumblin' down." What a vivid analogy for the breath's power to disintegrate even the strongest muscular armoring we carry in our bodies, a deceptively simple force demolishing barriers we've built over years.”

“This demotion of the exalted role of the Divine Feminine and the role of women in spirituality is nothing less than a horrible nightmare that Western Society has been experiencing for a very long time. It is the wound that will not heal, as spoken of in the Arthurian Romances.”

“The first ayât (verse) of Al-Fatiha (the most important chapter in the Qur'a-n) firmly establishes that the two names Al-Rahmân and Al-Rahîm refer to Allâh, the Supreme Power, and to Allâh exclusively. The two names' etymology stems from the same root: RAHM, which can mean "womb" or "place of origin". There is a hadîth qudsî that specifically addresses that: Allâh says, "I am al-Rahmân. I created the womb and I derived its name from My name. I will be connected to whoever stays connected to it, and I will be cut off from whoever stays cut off from it.”

“To the Priory of Sion, the secret organization described in the novel “The DaVinci Code,” the Bear was an animal of the Goddess Diana. The Merovingian kings, from their founder Merovee to Clovis (who converted to Christianity in 496) were kings who worshipped the Goddess Diana.”

“It is a tragedy of the 20th and 21st centuries that the works of the great explorers of the mind: Freud, Reich, Jung, Lowen, and many others, phase in and out of fashion, and are generally excoriated by the Religious Right, also known as the Christian Conservative Movement. The light and wisdom these men brought to humanity should be part of everyday reading, conversation, schooling, and especially child rearing. It is deplorable and a sign that humans in general are not ready to take the next spiritual leap forward, that most of humanity is still afriad of their own minds.”

“Reich’s genius birthed tools we’ve yet to fully grasp: his character armor and muscular armoring concepts seeded ego psychology, body psychotherapy, Gestalt therapy (Fritz Perls), bioenergetic analysis (Alexander Lowen), primal therapy (Arthur Janov), and the Radix of Charles R. Kelley. Beyond these, his mind-body vision ripples through newer somatic therapies of the late 20th and early 21st centuries: Somatic Experiencing (Peter A. Levine), healing trauma via bodily sensations; Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (Pat Ogden), merging somatic and cognitive trauma work; Core Energetics (John Pierrakos), blending bioenergetics with spirit; Hakomi Therapy (Ron Kurtz), mindful body-centered discovery; Bodynamic Analysis (Lisbeth Marcher), trauma through body-mind interplay; and Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE®, David Berceli), freeing tension with neurogenic tremors.”

“Reich described the redirection of unmet desires as sublimation, in which natural libidinal urges and raw bodily drives for connection and release transform into abstract spiritual ideals. For him, such ideals suppress rather than liberate.”

“In the 1930s, Reich began to measure these energetic shifts in therapy. He noticed that real arousal causes the skin’s electrical charge to rise, especially in the sensitive areas of the body.”

“In the Caduceus, the two serpents are called Ob and Od. As they twine around each other, they create the magickal wand of Double Power. The Unification of the Ob and Od is picture by the globe that crowns the Caduceus. The globe which climaxes the Caduceus symbolizes the Nur Muhammadi, or Light of Mohammed, the Aur (Light) in Hebrew, which is the result of the state of equilibrium existing between the two serpent forces. This Light is the SUPREME ESSENCE. Wilhelm Reich called this serpent energy the Orgone. It has also been referred to as: Ki, Kundalini, Mana, Prana, Vril, Animal Magnetism, the Odic Force, the Astral Light, the Élan Vital, the Libido, the Atmospheric 'I' and Ether.”

“Wilhelm Reich coined the term Orgone to describe the essential energy of life everywhere throughout nature. Orgone is the universal Life force, the basic building block of all organic and inorganic matter on the material planet. Orgone is also known as prana, life force, the fifth element, ki, chi, élan vital, mana and universal energy.”
