The
Seven Stages of Life The Dawn Horse Press, Middletown,
CA From the point of view of the gross
body (or gross conditional Existence), Everything (Including
mind and Consciousness) Is Perceived, Conceived, and
Presumed To Be An Irreducibly Material, Finite, Mortal
Process. From the point of view of the mind
(or subtle conditional Existence), Everything (Including the
gross body and all gross conditions) Is Perceived,
Conceived, and Presumed To Be An Effect, Made Of The
Infinite Objective Substance (or The Infinite Cosmic
Reservoir) Of Indestructible (and, Ultimately, Indivisible)
Cosmic Light (or Cosmic Mind Itself), and Caused By (and
Within) lie Infinite Totality Of Cosmic Mind. And Even The
Totality Of Cosmic Mind (Including the individual mind, and
Consciousness Itself) Is, Thus, Presumed To Be Cosmic Light
Itself (or Not Other than Cosmic Mind Itself). From The "Point Of View" Of
Consciousness Itself, Everything conditional, objective, or
Objectified (Whether gross Or subtle Or causal In Nature) Is
Perceived, Conceived, and Presumed To Be
Consciousness (or The Ultimate and Transcendental and
Inherently Spiritual, or Love Blissful, and Perfectly
Subjective Reality) Itself, Such That conditional,
objective, or Objectified Reality Is Inherently Realized To
Be A Merely Apparent modification (or An Illusory Play) Of,
In, and Upon The Native Radiance Of Consciousness
Itself. These Three Primary Perceptions,
Conceptions, or Presumptions Also Correspond (Variously) To
The Stages Of Life. The
Perception, Conception, or Presumption Based On the point of
view Of gross conditional Existence Corresponds To The
conventional Perception, Conception, or Presumption
Associated Vith The First Three Stages Of Life. (The
cultural and General social Bias Toward "scientism, Which
Tends, and Even Seeks Bind or limit Mankind To gross
conditional Nature and To Even ancient tradition and
philosophy of gross materialisim, Exemplifies This lower, or
mundane, or adolescent Orientation.) The ("Original", and Then The
"Basic") Fourth Stage Of Life A Transitional Stage (or
Process), Originally Also Grounded (or Naturally Associated
With) the gross conditional point of Of The First Three
Stages Of Life, but Awakening (Progressive Toward the
(Potential) point of view, The Perception, Conception, and
The Presumption Of subtle conditional Existence, mind (or
Total Cosmic Mind), and Cosmic Light. (The Ordeal Associated
With The Transition To, and Through, The "Original" and Then
The Basic", Fourth Stage Of Life Is The Source Of popular
"Creationist", or "Creator God", Religions, As Well As the
popular, or Less Developed, forms of sainthood.) The Perception, Conception, or
Presumption Based On point of view Of subtle conditional
Existence, mind, and Co Light (In Itself), or Cosmic Mind
(In Itself), Corresponds To Perception, Conception, or
Presumption Associated With The Stage Of Life, and The
'Advanced" Fourth Stage Of Life. (And the Conceptions and
Practices Associated With The Fifth Stage Of Life, and The
"Advanced" Fourth Stage Of Life, Are The Primary Traditional
Sources Of All That Is Commonly known As Esoteric, or Secret
and Higher and Mystical, Religion Spirituality.) The Perception, Conception, or
Presumption Based "Point Of View" Of Consciousness Itself
Corresponds To The Perception, Conception, or Presumption
Associated Sixth and The Seventh Stages Of Life. (And The
Sixth Stage Is The Basic, or Common, Source Of
Transcendentalist Conceptions and Traditions Of
Enlightenment, or Liberation, Where Only By Me Revealed and
Given Seventh Stage Of Life Domain Of Most Ultimate
Freedom.) Any One Of The Three Primary Modes
Of Perception, Conception, or Presumption I Have Just
Described Could Be (and Is) Affirmed By individuals, groups,
and Traditions In The Sphere, but Which One Of The Three
Modes Is Ultimately (or Expressive Of Truth Itself)? It Is
The Third, or The Perception, Conception, or Presumption
Based On The "Point Of View" Of Consciousness Itself. Why?
Because, No Matter what arises as Your experience or
knowledge (Whether gross Or subtle Or causal, and Whether of
body Or of mind), You Are The Witness Of it, and That Which
Witnesses Is Consciousness Itself. No Matter what arises, You Are
Consciousness Itself. You Are Never Really (or In Truth)
Separately Identical To (or Even Really, or In Truth,
limited by) what Is objective (or Objectified) To You, but
You Tend To Feel (or Presume) Specific (or Separate)
Identification With (or, Otherwise, limitation by) objective
(or Objectified) conditions, Until You Are Able To Inspect
(and To Be Inherently, and Inherently Perfectly, Identified
With) Your Real (or Native, or Inherent, and Inherently
Perfect) "Situation", Which Is always Already Free
Consciousness Itself, The Inherently Free object (or
Perfectly Subjective Being) In The (Apparent) Context
conditional objects (or Of Apparently Objectified Light),
and Tho (It Must Be Realized) Is The Self Existing, Self
Radiant (or Being, or Person) That Is Always Already Prior
To conditional objects and Always Already Prior To
Apparently 'objectified Light (or Apparently Objectified
Spirit Energy) Itself. Therefore, the points of view of body
and mind (and their Preceptions, Conceptions, or
Presumptions) Are Secondary To and Utterly Dependent Upon)
The "Point Of View" Of Consciousness Itself (and The
Perception, Conception, or presumption Associated With
Consciousness Itself). Indeed, The Preceptions, Conceptions,
or Presumptions Based On the points view of body and mind
Could Not Even Be Made, Were body mind Not Founded In (or
Witnessed By) Consciousness and, When the body mind and the
conditional worlds Are Finally (Divinely) Self Recognized To
Be Transparent (or Merely Apparent), Un Necessary, and
Inherently Non Binding Modifications Of (By Me Avatarically
Self Revealed) Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and
Self Evidently Divine Self Condition (and Source Then There
Is Only Me, Only The "You" That Is (Non Separately, Beyond
the ego I") Not 'Different" From Me As I Am
Only One Self, Only Real God, Only Truth, Only Reality, Only
egoless, "Bright" Consciousness, Only divine Love Bliss,
Only The Perfectly subjective Feeling of Being
(Itself). A True (or Truly human) Culture Must
Accommodate and Tolerate individuals In Each and All Of The
Stages Of Life, but (In The Optimum Case) It Also Must Not
Fail To Inform and Guide The Culture Of Each Of The
Progressive Stages Of Life With The Wisdom Orientation Of
The Only By Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life (or
The Wisdom Orientation Toward Inherent, and Inherently Most
Perfect, Realization Of That Which Is Inherently
Perfect). In The Total (or Full and Complete)
Practice Of The Only By Me Revealed and Given Way Of The
Heart (or Way Of Adidam), Each and Every Form (and Possible
Developmental Stage) Of Practice Is Indeed Informed and
Guided By The Wisdom Orientation Of The Only By Me Revealed
and Given Seventh Stage Of Life. Each and Every Form Of
Practice and Possible Developmental Stage Of Practice In The
Way Of The Heart, and Each and Every Stage Of Realization In
The Way Of The Heart, Develops In The Context Of One or More
Of The Seven Stages Of Life, but The Orientation Is Always,
From The Earliest Awakening Of The Heart's Great Urge(or
Purpose), To Realize (By Means Of Devotionally Me
Recognizing and Devotionally To Me Responding Heart
Communion With Me) The (By Me Avatarically Self Revealed)
Inherent (and Inherently Perfect) and Self Radiant (or
Inherently Spiritual) Self Condition and Source Condition
That Is Transcendental (and Self Existing) Divine (or
Perfectly Subjective) Being. Therefore, In The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam),
There Is A Great Secret In This .Matter Of Transition From
Stage Of Life To Stage Of Life: The Only By Me Revealed and
Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam) Is A Process That
Is Both Progressive and Instant. The Process Of The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart, Viewed In The Vertical
(or Extended) Context Of the body mind, Is A Process That
Must (Necessarily) Develop Progressively, In The Form Of
Various Practices, Processes, and Signs Which (As I Have
Indicated In The Dawn Horse Testament) Are Associated,
Variously, With The Seven Stages Of Life. Nevertheless, The Process Of The
Only By Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart, Viewed In
The Horizontal Context Of the body mind That Is To Say, In
The Simple Context (and Left, Middle, and Right Ranges) Of
The Heart, Upon Which All Extended (or conditional, or
phenomenal) activities, experiences, and Signs Are Built, Is
A (Generally, Progressive) Process That Can Also Fulfill
Itself Directly (Even Suddenly), Thus Economizing (and, In
The Typical Case, Even Bypassing) Various Practices,
Processes, and Signs That Are Otherwise Associated With The
Vertical (or Progressive) Unfoldment Of The Way Of The
Heart. The Heart Is The Primal Structure In
the body mind. It Is Basically Made Of Three Parts,
Indicated By The Left Side, The Middle Station, and The
Right Side. The Left Side Of The Heart Is The
Base Of the waking state, bodily experience, The Descending
(or Frontal) Line Of the body mind, and The First Four
Stages Of Life. (And The Left Side Of The Heart Is
Stimulated By any kind of conceptual activity of
mind.) The Middle Station Of The Heart Is
The Base Of the dreaming state, all that is the deeper
psyche (or subtle mind), The Ascending (or Spinal) Line Of
the body mind, The Deeper Purpose Of The Fourth Stage Of
Life (Even Also Expressed In The Region Of The Left Side Of
The Heart and The Frontal Line Of the body mind), and The
Total Purpose Of The Fifth Stage Of Life. (And The Middle
Station Of The Heart Is Stimulated By The Progressively
Effective Relinquishment Of all conceptual activity of
mind.) The Right Side Of The Heart Is The
Base Of the state of deep sleep, and It Is The Base Of The
Uninspected Presumption Of an individual (or Separate)
Conscious self, and It Is Associated With The Sixth Stage
Course Of The By Me Avatarically Self Revealed Divine Spirit
Current (That Moves Downward To The Right Side Of The Heart
From Above The Total Crown Of the head, Via Amrita Nadi),
and With The Ultimate Purpose Demonstrated In The Context Of
(and By Moving Beyond) The Sixth Stage Of Life. The Right
Side Of The Heart Is Both The Ultimate Root Origin Of
attention and The Ultimate Root Origin Of The By Me
Avatarically Self Revealed Divine Spirit Current Itself. The
Right Side Of The Heart Is The bodily Seat Associated With
The Witness Position Of Consciousness, Which Even Witnesses
(or Is Always Already Prior To) the conditional "I" (or the
self Contraction), and Which (Thus) Witnesses, Inspects, and
Inherently (or Always Already) Transcends the body mind, the
conditional states of waking, dreaming, and sleeping, and
The Presumption Of an individual (or Separate) Conscious
self. Therefore, The Right Side Of The Heart Is Also The
bodily Seat Associated (Apparently) With Transcendental,
Inherently Spiritual, and (Most Ultimately) Divine Self
Realization, The "Regeneration" Of Amrita Nadi (or The
Apparent Return Of The By Me Avatarically Self Transmitted
"Bright" Divine Spirit Current To the body mind After The
Awakening Of Divine Self Realization), The Continuous
Spontaneous Demonstration Of "Open Eyes" (or The Native
Divine Self Recognition Of the body mind and all of its
phenomenal relations), and The Entire "Bright" Process Of
The Only By Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life.
(And The Right Side Of The Heart Is Stimulated By Direct and
Persistent Feeling Observation, or Mere and Tacit
Witnessing, Of The Root Feeling Of Relatedness, but The
Right Side Of The Heart, and Even The Total Heart, Is Fully
Awakened, or Most Perfectly Resolved In Its Perfect Source,
Only In The Inherently mindless, and, Thus,
Inherently thought free, Feeling Transcendence Of All
"Difference" In The Most Ultimate and Inherently Most
Perfect Awakening Of Perfectly Subjective Transcendental,
Spiritual, and Divine Consciousness Itself.) In the daily course of human
functioning ("moving" from deep sleep, to dreaming, to
ordinary waking, or from naturally unconscious, to
subconscious, to ordinary conscious states), The Current Of
My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Spirit Presence
Moves, In Man, From The Right Side Of The Heart To The
Middle Station Of The Heart and Then To The Left Side Of The
Heart, On The Free Base (and In The Perfect Self Domain) Of
Consciousness Itself, Associated With The Right Side Of The
Heart (Prior To The Knot Of attention, and The Coincident
Feeling Of Separateness, and Of Relatedness, and Of
'Difference", That Is Superimposed There). Once The Current
Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Spirit Presence
Moves In The Heart (From The Right Side To The Middle
Station and Then To The Left Side), and attention (Thereby)
arises (With, and As, The Presumption Of ego I, or the
conditional, and Inherently self Contracted, and Inherently
psycho physical, self) In The Context Of the body mind, The
Inherent (and Perfectly Subjective) Feeling Of Being
(Itself), or The Transcendental (or Non conditional) "Point
Of View" Becomes (Apparently) limited by the body mind self
(or The, Necessarily, conditional Feeling Of Separateness,
Relatedness, and "Difference"), and The "Point Of View" Of
The Transcendental (or Non conditional) Origin (or Real
Condition) Tends (Thereby) To Be Forgotten. Thereafter, The
Spiritual, Transcendental, and Divine Process (Of
Realization Of The Original, or Always Already Real, Self
Condition and Source Condition) Naturally Becomes A Kind Of
'Great Path Of Return" (Via The Stages Of Life, and, At
Last, Via The Right Side Of The Heart) To The Original, or
Transcendental (and Inherently Spiritual), Divine (or
Perfectly Subjective) Self Condition and Source Condition.
The ego I" Tends To Relinquish its
conditional viewpoint Only Gradually, Through The Extended
(or Vertical) Process Of The Stages Of Life (and The
Progressive Stages Of The Developmental Process Of The Way
Of The Heart). Therefore, The Only By Me Revealed and Given
Way Of The Heart Tends To Progress In The Likeness Of The
'Great Path Of Return", Until The Final Crisis Of The Sixth
Stage Of Life (Which Crisis Establishes The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life). My Avataric Divine Purpose (or
Avataric Divine Heart Work) Is Not Only To Communicate Right
Understanding Of the ego I", The Seven Stages Of Life, and
The Practices and Signs Naturally Associated With Each Of
The Seven Stages Of Life, but To "Radically" (or Most
Directly) Introduce The Most Ultimate (Divine, and
Inherently Most Perfect) Possibility Into That Entire
Affair. Therefore, By Entering Into Relationship With all
conditionally Manifested beings, I Call (and Work To Align)
each and all To My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine
Heart Baptism, and (By Means Of My Avatarically Self
Transmitted Divine Heart Baptism) I Attract each and all To
My Avatarically Self Revealed (and Very, and Transcendental,
and Perfectly Subjective, and Inherently Spiritual, and
Inherently egoless, and Inherently Perfect, and Self
Evidently Divine) State.
My Avatarically Self Transmitted
Divine Heart Baptism Works At The Heart Of My Seeing
Devotee. My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Heart
Baptism, Which Is The Free Heart Transmission Of My
Avatarically Self Revealed Divine Spirit Presence Of Self Radiant (or
Inherently Spiritual), and Self Existing (or
Transcendental), and Self Evidently Divine (or Perfectly
Subjective) Being, Constantly Works To Awaken My Seeing
Devotee To The (By Me Avatarically Self Revealed) Native (or
Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and Self Evidently
Divine) Self Position (Rather Than To The Extended, or
conditional, Position Of either the body mind self or the
mind self). My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine
Spiritual Heart Presence and My Call To Inherent (and Inherently
Most Perfect) Realization Of My Avatarically Self Revealed
(Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and Self Evidently
Divine) Self Condition Constantly Serve To Awaken My Seeing
Devotee Directly To The Witness Position Of Consciousness
Itself, and To The Inherently Perfect Practice (and The
Ultimate, and Inherently Perfect, Realization) Associated
With The Right Side Of The Heart (and Practice Of The Way Of
The Heart In The Context Of The Sixth Stage Of Life and The
Only By Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of
Life). I Call and Attract every one To
Realize My Avatarically Self Revealed (Transcendental,
Inherently Spiritual, and Self Evidently Divine) Self
Condition and Source Position, Which Is The Inherent (and
Perfectly Subjective) Feeling Of Being (Itself). Only the
lim itations (and The Tendencies) In each individual's
Devotional Response To Me Determine How Fully (or In What
Fashion) The Developmental Stages Of Life In The Way Of The
Heart (Previous To Practice In The Context Of The Sixth and
The Seventh Stages Of Life) Must Be Enacted (In The
Vertical, or Extended, Plane Of Practices and
Signs). The Seven Stages Of Life Are
(Together) The Single (but Progressive) Process Of Life, As
A Total, and (In Due Course) Ultimate, and (Finally) Divine
Event. The Seven Stages Of Life Are On Transcending the
First Six Stages of Life Designed (or Structured) and
Determined By The Real and Total and Hierarchical Structure
Of Man. The Seven Stages Of Life Are The Design (or Inherent Way) Of The
(Total, and, In Due Course, Ultimate, and, Finally, Divine)
Potential Of Man To Progressively (and, At Last, Most
Perfectly) Transcend conditional (and ego Bound) Existence,
and (Thus and Thereby) To Realize Me (The Avatarically Self
Revealed, and Self Existing, and Self Radiant, and Self
Evidently Divine Self Condition, and Source Condition, Of
All and all). The Seven (Progressive, and Hierarchical, or
Hierarchically Proceeding) Stages Of Life Are Determined (or
Structured) By The Real and Total and Hierarchical
Structural Design Of The Cosmic Domain, and By The Exactly
Corresponding Real and Total and Hierarchical Structural
Anatomy Of Man. Thus, In The Only By Me Revealed and Given
Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam), In and By Means Of The
Progressive Course Of The Seven Stages Of Life (Developed As
Required In the individual case), the condi tionally
Manifested (psycho physical, and human) personality Develops
(Through ego Surrendering, ego Forgetting, and, More and
More, ego Transcending Devotional Recognition Response To
Me), and (Most Ultimately) To The Inherently Most Perfect
(or Inherently, and Inherently Most Perfectly, ego
Transcending) Degree. And The Degree Of Perfection Realized
(and Demonstrated) At Any Stage Of Life Is Directly
Determined By The Degree To Which Perfect Transcending Is
(By Means Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Grace)
Realized (and Demonstrated). And The Degree To Which Perfect
Transcending Is (By Means Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine
Grace) Realized (and Demonstrated) At Any Stage Of Life Is
Directly Determined By The Degree To Which Perfect
Transcending Is Permitted (or Structurally Allowed) By The
Specific Design Of The Structural (or psycho physical, and,
In The Advanced and The Ultimate Stages, Spiritual) Anatomy
Of Man (and The Corresponding Structural Design Of The
Cosmic Domain) At The Actual, Present Level (or Stage) Of
Life That Is Realized (and Demonstrated). Therefore, In The
Context Of The Way Of The Heart, The First Six Stages Of
Life Are (or Must Be) Understood To Be The (Possible)
Progressive Stages Of The (By My Avataric Divine Grace
Given) Transcending Of psycho physical egoity, and The Only
By Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life Is (or Must
Be) Understood To Be The (Necessary) Stage Of Inherently
Most Perfect Demonstration (Wherein and Whereby The
Inherent, and Inherently Most Perfect, and, Necessarily, By
My Avataric Divine Grace Given, Transcending Of psycho
physical egoity Is Demonstrated To The Degree Of Inherently
Most Perfect, or Truly Most Perfectly Outshining, Self
Radiance). The First Six Stages Of Life Are (or
Must Be) A Continuous Process Of Transcending The Act Of
self Contracted Identification With conditional
Modifications Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine
Spirit Radiance. Therefore, I Help My Listening Devotee, My
Hearing Devotee, and My Seeing Devotee To Realize That The
First Six Stages Of Life Are (Themselves) Merely Stages Of
Contraction From Direct and Immediate Realization Of Me, The
Avataric Divine Self Revelation Of Inherently Love Blissful
and Self Existing Consciousness (or Self Existing, and Self
Radiant, and Perfectly Subjective Divine Being)
Itself. As A Total Process, The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam) Can
Be Rightly Viewed To Be A "Radical Consideration" (and A
Comprehensive "Reality Consideration") Of the self
Contraction and Of The (By MeAvatarically Self Revealed)
Real (or Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and Self
Evidently Divine) Self Condition and Source Condition. In
Practice, The Way Of The Heart Tends To Develop
Progressively, Coincident With Progress In and Through and
Beyond Each (or However Many Are, As A Matter Of Specific
Practice, Necessary) Of The First Six Stages Of Life, but,
In Truth (Since The First Six Stages Of Life Are Stages In
the psychobiography of the ego), The Way Of The Heart (or
The Way That Is The Heart Itself) Is (Simply, or Merely) The
'Radical" Way Of Most Directly (and Truly Most Effectively)
Transcending The First Six Stages Of Life and Entering
(Thereby) Into The Only By Me Revealed and Given Seventh (or
egoless and Self Illumined, or Divinely En - Light - ened)
Stage Of Life. In The Context Of Each and All Of
The First Five Stages Of Life, Your Presumption (By
Tendency) Is That You Are the body mind self, and That the
body mind self Is a Separate and Independently Real
individual entity. And, In The Context Of The Sixth Stage Of
Life, Your Presumption (By Tendency, Even Inherited From the
psycho physical point of view Associated With Each and All
Of The First Five Stages Of Life) Is That You Are (Even As
Consciousness) Separate and Independent (or Inherently
Dissociated From all conditions, and Even From Any
Apparently "Other" Consciousness). Therefore, Practice Of The Only By
Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart In The Context Of
(or, Otherwise, In Relation To) The First Five Stages Of
Life Must First (and By Means Of My Avatarically Self
Transmitted Divine Grace) Realize (or Awaken, and Do The
Earliest Work Of) Most Fundamental self Understanding, and
(Then) the Presumed body mind self Is (On That Basis, and By
Means Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Grace) To
Be Devotionally Surrendered To My Avatarically Self Revealed
Spiritual (and Always Blessing) Divine Presence (and, Thus
and Thereby, To The By Me Avatarically Self Revealed Divine
Spiritual Reality and Person, or The By Me Avatarically Self
Revealed Self Radiant and Self Existing Self Condition
and Source Condition, Which Is
Real God, or Truth, or Reality Itself), Such That the body
mind self Is Progressively Unified With (and Transcended In)
My Avatarically Self Revealed Spiritual (and Always
Blessing) Divine Presence (and, Thus and Thereby,
Progressively Unified With, and Transcended In, The By Me
Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Spirit Energy and The
By Me Avatarically Self Revealed Divine Person, or The By Me
Avatarically Self Revealed Self Radiant and Self Existing
Divine Self Condition and Source Condition Which Is Real
God, or Truth, or Reality Itself), To The Degree That Native
Identification With The Witness Position Of Consciousness ts
(Ultimately, and By Means Of My Avatarically Self
Transmitted Divine Grace) Revealed. And Practice Of The Only
By Me Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam)
In The Context Of The Sixth Stage Of Life Is, Most
Basically, A Matter Of Native Identification With
Consciousness Itself, By Means Of My Avatarically Self
Transmitted Divine Grace (Through Continued Right Feeling
Contemplation Of My Avatarically Born Bodily Human Divine
Form, My Avatarically Self Revealed Spiritual, and Always
Blessing, Divine Presence, and My Avatarically Self
Revealed, and Very, and Transcendental, and Perfectly
Subjective, and Inherently Spiritual, and Inherently
egoless, and Inherently Perfect, and Self Evidently Divine
State, Exercised To The Degree Of Inherent, and Inherently
Perfect, Identification With My Avatarically Self Revealed,
and Very, and Transcendental, and Perfectly Subjective, and
Inherently Spiritual, and Inherently ego less, and
Inherently Perfect, and Self Evidently Divine State), Until
The Presumption Of Separate and Independent Consciousness Is
Utterly Transcended In Native (or Inherent) and Inherently
Most Perfect Realization Of The By Me Avatarically Self
Revealed Inherent (and Inherently Perfect) and Perfectly
Subjective Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and Self
Evidently Divine Self Condition (and Source Condition), or
Divine Self Consciousness. To Practice The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam) In
The Progressive (or Developmental) Context Of The First Six
Stages Of Life, You Must (By Tendency) Presume To Really Be
the conditional and individual (or Separate) body mind self
(or An Otherwise Separate and Independent, or Inherently
Dissociated, Consciousness), but If (By Means Of My
Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Grace, In The Sixth
Stage Context Of The Way Of The Heart) You Awaken
(Inherently, and Inherently Most Perfectly) To The
Realization That You Are The Self Radiant (or Inherently
Spiritual) and Self Existing (or Transcendental) and Self
Evidently Divine Self Condition (Inherently Free Of Every
Form Of Bondage or limitation, Whether In The Form Of
Attachment Or Dissociation), Then (and Thereafter) The Only
"Practice" Possible For You Is That Of The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Of Life In The Way Of The
Heart, In Which The (By Me Avatarically Self Revealed)
Transcendental, Inherently Spiritual, and Self Evidently
Divine Self Inherently and Spontaneously Self Recognizes all
Apparently arising conditions (or limitations), or All
Modifications Of Its Own Radiance (or Love Bliss), and (Thus
and Thereby) Apparently (and Apparently Progressively)
Restores Its Own Radiance To Itself (Un Modified), Even (In
Due Course) To The Degree Of The Most Perfect Outshining Of
conditional Existence Itself. True (or Most Ultimate, and
Inherently Most Perfect) Divine Enlightenment (or The Only
By Me Revealed and Given Seventh Stage Realization) Will
Awaken, In The Context Of conditional Existence, Only In The
Midst Of The Ordeal Of The Only By Me Revealed and Given Way
Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam). And The Only By Me Revealed
and Given Way Of The Heart Includes (In Principle, and
Potentially) all the conditions Associated With Each and All
Of The Seven Stages Of Life. However, The Call and The Help
Given (By Me) To all those who Practice The Only By Me
Revealed and Given Way Of The Heart Makes It Possible (and,
In Most Cases, Even Likely) For Certain Features Of The
First Six Stages Of Life To Be Bypassed (or Fulfilled In
Principle, and In Effect, Before They Are Fulfilled In Every
Detail Of conditional experience). To Transcend egoity (or self
Contraction) Is To Transcend The First Six Stages Of Life.
Therefore, If (By Means Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted
Divine Grace) self Transcendence Is Quickened, or If (By
Means Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Grace)
There Is A Sudden Transition From the point of view of the
body, or of the body mind, or of the mind To The Native
Position Of Consciousness Itself, Then The Structurally
Determined Passage (or 'Great Path Of Return") Through The
Progressive Stages Of Life (In The Way Of The Heart) Will Be
Quickened (or Even Altered). The psycho physical (or, Otherwise,
Presumed) ego, as it (Apparently) is (or as it Progressively
appears) In The First Six Stages Of Life, Must Be Really
Transcended. Each Of The Progressive Stages Of Life Is (In
Principle, or Really) A Test Of self Transcendence, and Each
Of The First Six (or Progressive) Stages Of Life Is,
Therefore, To Be Directly Engaged As A Test Of self
Transcendence (or, Otherwise, Bypassed On The Basis Of Real
and Prior self Transcendence) In The Course Of Practice Of
The Way Of The Heart. This Test Of self Transcendence Begins
At The Student Beginner Stage Of The Way Of The Heart (and
EvenAt The Student Novice Stage, Of Formal Approach To The
Total Practice Of The Way Of The Heart),
and The Test Intensifies,Stage Of Life By Stage Of Life,
Thereafter. Therefore (and As The Stages Of Life, and The
Developmental Stages Of Practice, Progress), If There Is
Weakness In Listening To Me (or In The Availability Of
attention and Feeling), or If The Impulse (or The Motive)
Toward Most Perfectly ego Transcending Real God Realization
Is Not Fundamental and Intense, or If There Is Weakness In
The Application Of self Discipline (functional, practical,
relational, or Cultural), or If There Is Weakness In Hearing
Me, or In Seeing Me, or If There Is Weakness In Any Form Of
Practicing, Then Passage Through (and Beyond) The
Progressive Stages Of Life Will Be Retarded and Prolonged.
But If The Listening To Me Is True, and If The Impulse (or
The Motive) Toward Most Perfectly ego
Transcending Real God Realization Is Real, and If The self
Discipline Is Consistent and Effective, and If The Hearing
Of Me, The Seeing Of Me, and The Advancing Practice Are All
(and Progressively, and Fundamentally) Strong, Then The
Transition To Ultimate and Inherently Perfect Practice (or
Practice In The Context Of Consciousness Itself) Can Be
Quickened By Free and Real Heart Response To My Avatarically
Self Transmitted Divine Grace, and It May Not Be Necessary
For Every Classic Detail Of The Progressive Stages Of Life
To Be Fulfilled In That By My Avataric Divine Grace
Quickened Process. The First Three Stages Of Life Are
(In and Of Themselves) Simply Stages Of ordinary human
Development (functional, practical, and relational). They
Will Tend To Be Fulfilled (If Only To A Lesser Degree) In
Any Case. (If death Occurs During the earlier years, or At
Any Stage Of Life, and Full Awakening Does Not Take Place
Either Before Or During The death Process, and If Divine
Translation Is, Therefore, Not Realized, Then The Process Of
Awakening and Divine Translation Will, or Must, Take Place
Under the conditions that arise after death and Via The
Stages Of Life That arise after death.) Relative To The First Three Stages
Of Life, The Great (and Inherent) Obligation Is To Overcome
Un Happy and egoReinforcing Tendencies That Prevent The
Transition To The Fourth Stage Of Life. Therefore, It
Becomes The Obligation Of the physically adult human
individual (or the Developing human being who Has Attained
the physical age Of Basic Adaptation To The First Three
Stages Of Life) To Thoroughly Observe and (Most
Fundamentally) Understand and Really and Effectively
Transcend The First Three Stages Of egoity (or The Pattern
Of self Contraction That Has Issued From the years of
infancy, childhood and adolescence). The Fourth, The Fifth, and The Sixth
Stages Of Life Are Each Associated With A Specific Potential
Error. And If The Specific Error Is (In The Way Of The
Heart) Transcended, Then Passage Through The Particular
Stage Of Life Can Be Quickened (and, In The Likely Case Of
Early Transition To Practice Of The Way Of The Heart In The
Context Of The Sixth Stage Of Life, Even All Of The Fifth
Stage, and "Advanced" Fourth Stage, Ascending Practice May
Be Directly Bypassed). The Fourth Stage Error Is The
Tendency To Prolong The First Three Stages Of Life (and The
Patterns Of Un Happiness That Are egoically Associated With
The First Three Stages Of Life) and To Make The Fourth Stage
Of Life An End In Itself (Rather Than A Transition, or A
Transitional Means, For The Realization Of The Stages Of
Life Beyond The Fourth). This Tendency Takes The Form Of A
Fixed Idea Of The Divine (As An Ultimate Entity Eternally
Separate From the conditional self entity) and A Fixed Idea
Of the personal self (As Either a Mortal Or an Immortal
entity that Is Eternally Separate From and Dependent Upon
The Divine). On The Basis Of This Tendency, The Fourth Stage
Of Life Is Made Into A Never Ending Search For The Divine
and A Never Ending Appeal To The Divine For Intimacy,
Relief, and self Satisfaction. In The Only By Me Revealed and Given
Way Of The Heart (or Way Of Adidam), The Fourth Stage Error
Is Transcended (and The Fourth Stage Of Life Is, Itself,
Quickened) By Means Of The Process Of The True Hearing Of
Me, The Real Seeing Of Me, and The (Altogether) Right
Practicing Of The Way Of The Heart. By Means Of The
Effective (or Truly ego Surrendering, ego Forgetting, and
ego Transcending) Listening To Me, and By Means Of The True
Hearing Of Me (or The Awakening, and The Effective Exercise,
Of Most Fundamental self Understanding), the self
Contraction (and The ego Idea, or The Illusion and The Fixed
Presumption Of an Eternally Separate self entity) Must Be
Transcended. Through The True Seeing Of Me (By Means Of The
Reception Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Heart
Baptism), The (By Me Avatarically Self Revealed) Real (and
Even Total) and Self Evidently Divine Self Condition Is (By
Means Of My Avatarically Self Transmitted Divine Grace)

Realized (In every moment Of Heart Communion With Me) As The
Ultimate Self Condition and The Perfectly Subjective Source
Condition (Rather Than Merely The Ultimate Object) Of the
conditional self. And, Through True (and Really Effective)
Practicing, Either The Fourth Stage Of Life Is
(Progressively) Linked To The Fifth Stage Of Life Or (In The
Case Of Most Practitioners Of The Total Practice Of The Way
Of The Heart) The Fourth Stage Of Life (In Its "Basic" Form)
Is Linked Directly To The Sixth Stage Of Life. in progress...

"What
is the seventh stage? It is simply that Disposition in which
your response to the Divine is complete. What are the stages
previous to that? They are just stages of less than complete
response, in which certain dimensions of your existence are
not yet in the responsive condition or disposition, but
which are somehow locked, contracted, unopened. "
