The Origins of the Universe and the Masonic Pyramid:

The Masonic Pyramid Reveals its Secrets to a Poor Traveler in Search of Truth

Copyright 2007-2008 by Jeffrey Augustine

The angry debate between Creationists and Evolutionists has been raging since the time of the Scopes Trial in 1932 is easy to describe. Creationists believe that the personal God of the Bible created our universe and humanity as described in the Book of Genesis.

Big Bangers believe that our universe suddenly appeared as the result of an impersonal in the Big Bang. Humanity showed up fifteen billion years later via the mechanics of naturalistic evolution.

The bitter debate Creationists and Big Bangers has turned into an intractable and angry stalemate. It is the intellectual equivalent of the trench warfare of World War I. In that war, both sides expended enormous energy, gained very little ground, and very often gave up the ground they gained. This same stubborn tactical situation describes the current state of affairs in the culture war between the models of Divine Creation and the Big Bang. Neither side can win this debate because it is an impossible debate.

There is another way to think about how our universe came into existence. This alternative frees people from the bitter "either/or" battle between Christian evangelicals and atheists.

This alternative has to do with secret symbols contained inside of the Masonic Pyramid, a place no one has ever traveled until now.

Jeffrey Augustine's book, The Origins of the Universe and the Masonic Pyramid is a far more complex work than he presented in his beautiful book, Psychic Architecture: The Journey.

The two books embody the essence of Jeffrey Augustine's Technomystic cosmology. They are written for a wide audience, perhaps especially for readers who have come out of a negative religious experience of any kind as did Jeffrey Augustine when he was a young man.

Augustine's thinking will help those who are seeking to separate Truth and God from their past  negative religious experiences. A Pentecostal in his youth, Jeffrey Augustine struggled for many years to come to terms with what had been for him a very dogmatic and oppressive religious experience.  In Psychic Architecture: The Journey , Augustine forges a way out of oppressive religion and into the wide expanse of Infinity offered by his unique spiritual teaching. 

In his written works, Jeffrey Augustine -- a Master Mason and Knight Templar -- proposes a cosmological alternative termed, "The Disunification of Energy and Awareness" or DX. The DX is based on a paradox: If God is Infinite then God is always already all that is. Therefore, creation is not possible within Infinity. In order to create, then, God disunifies some part of Infinity into "sub-Infinite and multi-dimensional bubble universes" that are based on probabilities. Augustine shows the reader how the DX is expressed in both the Periodic Table of the Elements and also a "Table of Disunified Awareness" which he offers as the, archetypal analog of the Periodic Table. It is a "Chemistry of Personality" that resonates with that which the Alchemists were seeking to say about the fusion of spirit and matter in humanity. This new book is at the cutting edge of a new paradigm shift that Jeffrey Augustine calls Technomysticism and his offered in his newest book:

As a Master Mason and a Knight Templar, Jeffrey Augustine has been classically trained in esoteric symbology by the finest teachers in the world.  Augustine's symbols and his explanations of those symbols offer you a sophisticated  and intellectually flexible way able to approach the matters of God, spirituality, science, death, reincarnation, and so many other key issues of life . The secret knowledge, or gnosis, presented in the book has the power to expand your vision of reality far beyond the conventional models allowed by either religion and science.  Thus, the offers a new Mandala, a new way to symbolically represent the portal between Infinity and our sub-Infinite Universe:

The Origins of the Universe and the Masonic Pyramid and Psychic Architecture are very passionate and elegantly written books. Intended for readers who enjoy high-concept esoterica, paradoxes, physics, and the purity of symbolism and art, the book features almost fifty of Augustine's unique symbols and drawings. To understand the alternative presented in The Origins of the Universe and the Masonic Pyramid  and Psychic Architecture requires an exploration of antiquity, physics, religious thievery, and the deconstruction of one of the strongest foundations in human thought. Jeffrey Augustine takes the reader on a very compelling spiritual and symbolic journey into the heart of a profound event wherein the Infinite One becomes the many.  Psychic Architecture offers a very unique form of knowledge about the nature of reality.

QUOTES

"In the faraway heavens of Indra, the Hindu King of the Gods, a cunning creator, has devised an intricate and amazing net. This web stretches out infinitely in all directions. Within each 'eye' of the net, where the threads interconnect, there is a jewel, a bead, a pearl. Each such jewel symbolizes an individual existence. Each glitters elegantly from its place within the web. If we draw near to look into one such jewel, we see not only its exquisite and personal beauty, but also all the other jewels reflected within it.

"A mystery to contemplate such beauty, such infinite connection, such magnificent reflection. Totally individual and vastly whole at one and the same time. When one jewel is touched, or seen, or honored, it begins to move and the whole cosmos/net is set in motion, singing. So it is with all of us, each one interrelated with all the others." -- Teaching of the Buddha in the Avatamsaka Sutra.

 

"If you don't like the way nature is arranged, get it changed."

-- Christine Jorgenson at the Las Vegas Sahara, 1953.

 

Questions from Avatar Adi Da Samraj

" Will you surrender to the Reality in which you are arising, or will you defend yourself for the rest of your life? Will you contract, will you withdraw, withhold, dissociate, separate, turn upon yourself? Will you avoid all relations, contract from them? Will you react, or will you simply remain in the natural position prior to that recoil? Will you be present? Will you not avoid relationship? Will you shine as love to Infinity? Will you enter into complete Fullness of feeling relative to that Condition in which you are arising? Will you do that as a principle of existence, rather than what you are tending to do, which is to contract upon yourself and become afraid?

" The recoil is the action that you perform, and it contains all suffering. But if you persistently remain present in relationship, then you begin to develop a different mind, you create a different form of life, and you become subject to a new understanding, a new Revelation. You begin to recognize the mere Presence of God. You begin to enjoy transformation of your conventional state by Divine Grace."
