Mastering Your Own Mind – State and the Art of Transmutation

Everything in the material world is comprised of energy as vibration. All vibration is formed by movement as an interaction between complementary opposites of the same thing. All vibration consists of information and a self-organizing mechanism that organizes the information into a dynamic geometric pattern as a virtual reality that becomes the holographic blueprint for constructing the material equivalent as a growth and accumulative process.  Every idea is a vibratory pattern that exists as pairs of opposites that form a scale as a range of vibration that forms a frequency. Every vibratory frequency originates on the mental plane as a “state of mind†composed of qualities of consciousness that shape us and our outer reality to be a part of the same idea on different scales. Vibration as light (photons) exists as both a wave and a particle simultaneously, and forms both the inner and outer, the individual and their complementary outer reality, the local and non-local mind as being of the same pattern as a “life theme” that’s played out on different scales and levels of complexity. The wave exists in a state of probability as the infinite possibilities associated with that vibratory theme at a non-local (outer or greater) level. The particle, formed within that same frequency, exists as the physical body that the mind (wave/field) bonds to through resonance and sympathetic induction, and becomes located within the center of the same potential reality.

Vibration operates on multiple planes simultaneously with the same patterning as an archetypal idea that’s made into a whole thematic reality. Vibration contains an archetypal pattern (idea) as a feeling state, comprised of a particular set of attributes, qualities, and characteristics that form natural behaviors and activities. Our character systematically produces thoughts and feelings of the same nature as concepts formed into “internal representations” that form the basis for producing particular types of experience as a living scenario. Whatever reality we form in our mind as the expression of an idea that’s adapted to a specific situation or set of circumstances, stimulates an emotional response to that reality which resonates through the chakra system of the subtle body, stimulating the associated endocrine glands of the physical body producing chemistry that adjusts our whole being to the same vibratory state as the mind. There’s a constant back and forth flow of energy as information between the body and mind that keeps them vibrating in a harmonious state of coherence.

Meditative unfolding

This vibration as a feeling originates in the mind on the mental plane, and it’s within that plane that it’s altered, regulated, or transmuted altogether. The spiritual plane of pure consciousness (mind) exists in polarity with the astral plane of the soul (thought and emotion), which acts as a medium between the spiritual plane and the material plane, and is what unites them both in forming the same reality. The astral plane of the soul, also exists in polarity with the material plane as it’s complementary opposite, which is what bonds it to the physical body, and acts to stimulate the physical body into an active state, determining and directing how it functions through a back and forth movement that’s self-perpetuating and self-sustaining, and also has the ability to act, one on the other, to influence, modify, and transmute each other. Polarities act on each other to stimulate each other into an active state of existence, and each are shaped by how they relate and identify with each other.

The emotions of the body (chemistry as a vibratory state), which form through a process of stimulus-response with everything around us, serve to produce thoughts of a similar nature which form a perception of the reality they indicate, and establishes our mood. Whatever mood we’re in as a state of mind, formed by what we’re focusing on and thinking about, shapes our outer reality as the expression of that mood. As we form an inner reality through our thoughts and feelings, we form the perceptual lens for producing an equivalent outer experience as the means of giving us more of the same feeling. All vibration moves between opposite poles of the same idea as contrasting qualities and characteristics that form the basis for “defining each other”. An idea as a state-of-mind exists in polarity (dual aspects) as an electromagnetic interaction with itself from opposite perspectives. These complementary opposites are identical in nature, and vary only in “degreesâ€, not in “kind†or “type”. This range of vibration as degrees of opposites create and form a scale, much like a musical scale that we move along in stages that alter our state from a negative aspect (lower vibration) to the positive aspect (highest vibration) as a gradient movement. This gradient scale is comprised of very fine lines that are somewhat obscure as to where one degree or quality ends and the other begins.

We can only “know ourselves” as being “good” by how we contrast, compare, and relate to what we also deem as being “bad”. If there’s no example of what bad means, then we don’t have the means for shaping ourselves in relation with it as being good. These two qualities act in relation with each other to define and shape each other. We can only experience ourselves as being compassionate by how it contrasts and relates to being judgmental and uncaring. By being the “opposite”, we have the means for shaping and determining ourselves. In this same manner, vices, shortcomings, weaknesses, character flaws, and unconscious aspects of ourselves can be transformed by first becoming aware of them and forming a desire to change them, and then by employing their opposite quality of virtue, nobility, strength, morality, and acting in an aware manner, in their place, and by doing so in a consistent manner, we act “on ourselves” to “transform ourselves” to a higher state of morality.

Astral energy of the mental plane

For example: Our state of mind exists as a “quality of consciousness” that can be applied to the same thing (idea or situation) to form and determine how we “experience” it.  Love and hate are opposite ends of the same feeling (pattern), separated only by degrees that move through varying levels of love into like, which is a “medium range” comprised of different degrees of liking something, into dislike and then into hatred, which again, exist at different levels and degrees of intensity. The positive end of love, always acts to attract us and draw us into it, and the opposite or negative aspect of hate acts to repulse us, and causes us to move away from it. Yet on the purely mental plane, hatred can consume us with an equal or greater degree than love can. We often spend more time dwelling on and thinking about what we hate, dislike, and don’t want, than we do thinking about and dwelling in what we love, like, and want. This is why from a psychological perspective we say that you can’t truly hate someone or something unless you’ve also loved them. Often people that we end up despising the most we started off loving.

Another way to understand this principle in practical terms, is to picture it as a scale of opposite extremes of the same feeling, that form a range of degrees that systematically move between them, similar to a sliding scale. Hot (fire) and cold (water), can be seen as opposite “degrees†and “states†that move incrementally from one extreme to the other within the same scale, with “warm” being the balance point or medium. It’s hard to tell where heat ends and cold begins, because they exist as a “range” rather than a finite point. The same principle applies to light and dark, large and small, inner and outer, black and white, high and low, and positive and negative. All are different aspects and scales of the same thing, varying only in degrees of vibration as a range or unified frequency. A frequency, which is formed as a range between extremes of the same thing, is merely a mode and rate of vibration.

This same principle works on the mental plane with opposites such as good and bad, love and hate, fear and courage, greed and charity, lust and chastity, and is the principle expressed in the seven deadly sins (errors in thought and action) and the contrary seven heavenly virtues (divine way of thinking and being). Vices and virtues oppose each other, and provide the key for understanding how to use one in order to transform the other, not from one thing to another, or changing in class or kind, but by moving between the positive and negative pole of the same quality or characteristic by embodying the opposite aspect of the same idea. We can use a virtue in place of a vice, forming a new way of perceiving and experiencing the same thing, and as we build up a new way of experiencing the same thing, we act “on ourselves” to gradually transform ourselves to a new way of feeling, thinking, and being.

Energetic currents

Transmutation isn’t about completely changing your nature or becoming a different person altogether, but rather changing negative traits into positive ones through an understanding of the principle of polarity and how to apply that knowledge at the practical level (bringing it into practice) and through discipline and active use of will to act on yourself in a deliberate manner, to transform yourself by altering your vibratory frequency. Our character is primarily developed in two ways, through a form of stimulus – response at the subconscious level of formative conditioning, and through a conscious decision that we willfully act out as a creative process that intentionally develops us through those qualities as a way of being. We’re always in the process of developing and becoming a certain way, it’s only a question of whether we’re doing it with awareness, or through a lack of awareness.

The goal of spiritual development is to transmute yourself through self-mastery by purifying your moral character from a lower, animalistic and ignorant and unconscious state, to a higher, divine and intelligent state. To move from selfishness and corruption to selflessness and purity. To use the power of our mind as will to intentionally change our own perceptions, thoughts, and behaviors to those that are constructive, positively creative, and beneficial in raising our vibration to a higher level which is necessary for ascending to higher dimensions through induction as vibratory sympathy or being of the same nature and likeness as the frequency of the higher dimensions. All higher vibration involves greater forms of consciousness as intelligence that’s creative and life affirming in nature, rather than destructive and killing life.

Walking between dimensions

Higher dimensions, often referred to as heaven or nirvana, are pristine paradises, which can only be created and maintained by those of the mind-set and natural behaviors that produce and sustain it in that state. Those who are of a lower, earthly, animalistic and unconscious mind-set, are destructive, unaware of the consequences of their actions, and lack the willpower and discipline to curb their own appetites and corrupting tendencies. They mindlessly act or participate in destroying and killing their own environment through sheer ignorance, a detachment from the reality of their actions, simply not caring, and the inability to direct their own mind by refraining from primal urges.

Through an understanding of the Law of Polarity we can work on ourselves to transform ourselves to a higher, creative way of being. We can alter our state, which will simultaneously alter our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We can recognize all traits that are being negatively expressed, and intentionally invoke the state necessary to move them to a positive expression of the same idea. We can transform fear by employing courage in its place and willfully acting it out. We can transform hatred into love, by looking through the eyes of love and seeking first to understand instead of judging and condemning. By learning how to produce and maintain our own state of mind, we can begin changing behaviors and perceptions that are negative in nature to the positive expression of the same idea and transform our experience of living from one of pain and suffering to one of joy and well-being.
