Episodes

ON JESUS 09.05.2023

Send a text “All anti-Semitism is anti-Christian.” Jesus claimed to be the Messiah, the embodiment of God on earth. He represented the goal of the human race. He was the first to attain that goal and he laid down a method for others to attain that same goal. He claimed, and demonstrated, complete control over his own organism and that every other human being who believed him and followed his recom...

GOD OR FIELD 09.05.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by declaring that he is going to state clearly his thinking on this question in reply to some who have challenged him about it. He mentions Thomas Aquinas, and others, who have tried to prove the existence of God by logic. Today, we can do something similar because we now know, scientifically, that all ‘matter’ is energy. William Blake said “Energy is of the body,” but Eu...

GOD BECOMING 09.05.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by drawing a circle to represent the skin surface of a human being. At the centre he draws a small circle to represent “the unassailable, impregnable” Immanent Spirit. “The power there is so great no stimulus from outside can enter into it.” A stimulus comes to a new baby and consciousness runs out to meet it and makes a record. This process is repeated endlessly and the...

LOVE AND DEATH 09.05.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by saying that to examine the idea of death he has to examine the opposite, because they are “mutually defining.” However, the opposite of death is not ‘life’ but ‘love’. The word ‘live’ refers to the individual (the ‘i’ signifies ‘individuation’) The word ‘love’ requires another being, two or more are needed. Death means ‘disintegration’, and in this sense, death of the...

LUCIENT FISH 09.05.2023

Send a text All thoughts are symbolic, so are all words. Every syllable, every letter, is a symbol for something. The F in ‘Fish’ can be written as V and the ‘Vish’ is in Vishnu, Shiva, Ishva. The creative, preserving and destroying gods are the same letters rearranged. ‘I’ is the principle of individuation, ‘H’ is hierarchy, ‘HR’ means ‘power differentiated’. “All hierarchies are built of power,...

HERE AND NOW 09.05.2023

Send a text The ‘Here and Now’ is about Space and Time. E.H. illustrates this with printed music and ledger lines. The musical stave is the ‘space’ and the movement along it is ‘time’. On a piano keyboard we have space and the speed at which we play is time. Playing involves energy expenditure; the faster we play the greater the energy expended. So we have space, time and energy expended. (space,...

ENLIGHTENMENT 13.03.2023

Send a text Eugene compares Eastern and Western approaches to this. Because everybody’s grass seems greener, we tend to think of enlightenment as being somewhere other than where we are. Many have gone to the East, to India and China to seek it. However, in China, many have gone to the West to seek it, to India. The terms ‘East’ and ‘West’ do not refer to geography but to the human body. The East...

EVOLUTION 13.03.2023

Send a text This talk follows the one on Involution given the previous week. Eugene begins by restating the mnemonic of the hand: Thumb is Will, first finger is intellect, but now divided into two parts; upper and lower, middle finger is the preferred response, also divided into upper and lower, third finger bio-field, and little finger, physical body. The will is the initiative, and therefore pri...

THE EXISTENCE OF GOD 13.03.2023

Send a text Eugene begins with the observation that church leaders seem to be doubtful about a possible proof for the existence of God, along with doubts about many of the articles of faith previously held. To prove is to probe and we cannot probe anything outside ourselves without probing inside. Our sense organs tell us there is an external world and we know that we have an internal world more o...

THE FALL 13.03.2023

Send a text A baby is an open sensorium. It is a feeling being. They turn over in the womb to make themselves comfortable. The baby is feeling its body and it does this in a kind of dream state, rather like a caterpillar pupating to become a butterfly. The caterpillar makes for itself a chrysalis and then “dreams it way’ through to emerge as a butterfly; the perfect insect. The Greek word for ‘but...

FATHERHOOD 13.03.2023

Send a text The word ‘Father’ means ‘to differentiate power’. Christ says we have a ‘Father in Heaven’. ‘Heaven’ is the zone of balance. When the Absolute, Sentient Power condensed itself to form the world, it pressed upon centres and the centres pressed back to a certain distance. Where these pressures balanced is the zone of Heaven, the place where two powers meet and press, a zone of equalisati...

FIRST LOVE 13.03.2023

Send a text Eugene says the talk is prompted by a young woman who thought she had fallen in love for the first time. He describes a young woman who has decided she is going to become the perfect , hermaphroditic being. Then she meets the perfect young man and her chemistry becomes unbalanced. She “falls in love.” Her intention of becoming the perfect hermaphrodite loses glamour. She falls towards...

CORKS 13.03.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by explaining the statement in the bible: “I have loved Jacob and hated Esau.” Esau was “a hairy man,” uncivilised, but Jacob made a great civilisation. The nomadic way of life, represented by Esau, cannot progress but remains fixated in its ways because it is always on the move. For humans to develop, they had to settle down and make a civilisation, in order to evolve. W...

COSMO SEXUAL POLARITY 13.03.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by exploring the concept of transcendence. He describes the state of the Infinite before creation began. The sentience and power of the Absolute are inseparable and the power must be used in order for Infinity to feel itself. For this to happen there had to be movement and this resulted in the production of wave motions within Itself. These motions are the ‘ananda’ of the...

BOWL OF CHERRIES 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by saying that he is going to talk about the last thing we might say before death. When the Buddha was dying, his disciples asked him for a final teaching, a ‘special secret’ perhaps? His reply was, “I am not he of the closed fist,” and then he died. A second example is of a wise, old rabbi. Again, the disciples gathered around him and asked for a final message. This was:...

THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by writing the numbers 0 – 6 vertically, to give seven numbers. The zero at the top signifies God prior to creation, and therefore contains all forms within Him. This zero is “God with Logos.” He takes the word ‘Logos’ and analyses it, drawing a diagram of a six-spoked wheel. There is an L (Lambda), G (Gamma), two ‘O’s and an ’S’. Lambda means ‘light’, ‘total awareness’ a...

BEAUTY, TRICKERY AND SUFFERING 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene starts with a dot, a red dot. ‘Red’ means “a vibratory process of life, creating a division.” The dot is the first point of condensation of the Infinite Power. “the dot is a point of concentration of that power, by that power, for that power.” Before the positing of a point, the Sentient Power is an extended Field with no content. Without a content the Power has “no profit to It...

BODY WISDOM 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by saying that he is going to talk about the wisdom in the body, and not of it. He defines wisdom as “total knowledge in its simultaneity.” Anything less may be knowledge, but it is not wisdom. We have extensive knowledge of the body from the world of empirical science, but the accumulation of this knowledge does not give us ‘body wisdom’.Taking a body to pieces may give...

THE BUDDHIST WHEEL (1) 13.02.2023

Send a text There is only one being, and all functions of this being produce, apparently, a plurality of beings. But these beings are fundamentally one being, who is the host- and the plurality are the guests within the house. The Buddhist Wheel, called the Wheel of Life is usually described as a wheel illustrating six totally different realms. The talk illustrates in detail the six realms. The wh...

ADVICE TO YOUNG GIRLS 13.02.2023

Send a text Life is an energy, that energy is able to tense itself, and that tension, that power of focus we call masculine. To bring consciousness to a point is masculine; to leave it spread out is feminine. An example is while driving a car, normally when driving a car you drive with your consciousness spread out, the moment you see the possibility of danger you convert from the feminine to the...

APIS 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by writing the word ‘APIS’ on the screen and asking the audience what it means. Answer: ‘BEE’ to the Romans, but ‘BULL’ to the Egyptians. It is also the name ‘Joseph’. He draws a wave to represent the Absolute. The ‘Absolute’ is Ab: Father, Sol: Son, ute: Holy Ghost; a triplicity of powers. ‘A’ is also ‘Aleph’, (Alpha). ‘Ah’ indicates ‘prime breathing’ and is the primary...

APOCALYPSE 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by saying that the prophets in the earliest times were men who were persecuted and killed for speaking out against the wickedness of the rulers. An example being that of John the Baptist who criticised Herod for marrying his brother’s wife, Herodias. The prophets heard voices inside themselves and declared these to be divine in origin, and so it was their duty to speak ou...

APPLYING WHAT WE KNOW 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins with the observation that, although all humans have the same origin, we are always at war with others. Not just nations but tribes, families, neighbours. Why have we not learned the lesson of history that all such quarrels do not bring lasting peace? The answer is “inertia,” the tendency to carry on doing what we are doing. This inertia is at all levels in us, physical, e...

ARROGANCE 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by asking his audience for the meaning of the word ‘arrogance’. He gives a dictionary definition: ‘The taking to ourself, of anything whatever, without entitlement.’ He distinguishes between the Godhead, the Infinite, Sentient Power, and God as creator. The Infinite Field winds in and posits a point. We are all such points of reference within the Infinite Power Field. As...

THE BARDO 13.02.2023

Send a text Eugene begins by asking: “What are we going to talk about tonight?” An audience member asks about the ‘Bardo Thodol’, the ‘Tibetan Book of the Dead’. He draws a circle and puts an arrowhead on the circumference to show that it is going round. Without circumscription, there would be no ‘ground of being’. (‘Ground’ is G-round: the going round of energy.) Opposite to the ‘dead’ are the ‘q...
