According to the ancient Eastern elders, God is the bodiless intelligence that
lives in the Imperceptible World. It is the wisdom behind all nature's Truths.
Mathematics or logical reasoning makes God understandable. Through that
understanding, we perceive Its intelligence.

God operates Its creations through nature, a program It designed. Order in

the Cosmos is established God's Program. The plan is to uses a set of
binding and unchanging axioms that dictate the consequences of behavior
for all God's creations.

The bodiless intelligence manages trillions of cells in our body. The cells
inhale, exhale, reproduce, and eliminate waste, in perfect harmony, for the
good of the whole (a healthy person).

For example, think about your heartbeat. It regulates blood flow all of your
life, speeding up when you run and slowing down when you rest. Your heart
speeding up or slowing down occurs independently of your thought
processes. God's intelligent direction executes the pace automatically.

Recognize the Parts of God

The ancient Eastern elders said two complementary parts make up the
whole of God's being. Both pieces are indivisible, eternal, infinite spans with
different functions. Although unlike, the two are inseparable elements of
one whole. The pair establishes the opposites structure in all things.

These fundamental parts of God belong in two categories:

 Consciousness (extending from awareness to Will)

 Spirit/Energy (extending from power to matter)

13
Consciousness

Consciousness is the part of God that ranges from complete, unlimited,

awareness to unchallengeable Will: awareness, meaning recognition of the
pattern and significance of events taking place everywhere. Deciding to run
or jump during a basketball game is an act of Consciousness.

The ancient Eastern Savants referred to Consciousness as an eternal,

indivisible, and infinite expanse that subtraction, addition, division, or
multiplication will not change. It contains no matter (called Atum by the
ancients and which Western science mistakenly coined atom). Some
cultures describe God’s Consciousness as the “void,” an original area of
total nothingness. It has no Spirit/Energy. Therefore, nothing can create,
destroy, reduce, divide, or multiply Consciousness. It is one.

Awareness and Will are not attributes of Consciousness. Instead, see

Consciousness as a state of anti-power and anti-matter, “negative
existence.”

Consciousness observes all past and present occurrences. Unchallengeable

Will is the intention to act on events that affect the earth, plants, animals,
and Man. Even though these events occur because Consciousness Wills
them, Consciousness is not responsible for them.

14
A universal axiom states, “All things will change in time”. For a continuous
change (creation, reformation, and destruction) to proceed, a part of God
and Man must remain free of alteration. That part is Consciousness.
Nothing can direct it since it has no Spirit/Energy. As a result,
Consciousness is in absolute freedom with unlimited creative potential
when it Wills.

Spirit/Energy

Spirit/Energy is the part of God that puts in the work. It is the complete,
unlimited, universal power of God that extends to matter. When Willed by
Consciousness, Spirit/Energy separates Its dormant expanse into an active
segment that transforms into a creation in the physical world. What we
understand from this is that God’s awareness and Will are in control of all
of Its creations.

As Quantum Physics tells us, waves of vibrating Spirit/Energy are the

underlying structure and substance of all things in the Cosmos. Fluctuating
Spirit/Energy is everywhere and governed by God’s Program: a plan
developed by the Consciousness part of God.

Breathing heavier is an act not from your Consciousness. You are not
responsible. Your Spirit/Energy executes the action. As we will learn later,
the Consciousness part of God (and Man) start all events in the world while
Spirit/Energy is the executor. The Consciousness Wills, Spirit/Energy
carries out the Will. “God proposes, and Spirit/Energy disposes.”

Proof of God’s Existence

You cannot base a way of living on what God said or does until you have
proven God exists. God’s existence can be established when you consider
that before a living thing could have created intelligence; something was
acting in planning the building block of all physical forms-the atom.

According to scientists, the various atoms that make up the Cosmos

originated when gases following the big bang compressed, exploded,
generated a tremendous amount of Spirit/Energy and heat, and then
cooled.

15
Differences do not differentiate the 103 atoms that make up elements in the
physical world. Instead, the differences come from varying arrangements of
only two particles, the electron and proton. Such that:

 Each new atom is more complicated than the one it follows.

 Atoms are set up in a series of eight, so they repeat their makeup in
the following ninth, eighteenth, and twenty-seventh rows. As a result,
a repeating features table can depict the atoms in order. The following
is an example:

a b c d e f g h
a2 b2 c2 d2 e2 f2 g2 h2
a3 b3 c3 d3 e3 f3 g3 h3

And so on.

Electrons swirl around the proton or centers in different orbits called shells.
The first shell holds a maximum of 2 electrons, the second shell 8, the third
18, and the fourth 32.

This shell arrangement produces the mathematical series.

2(1) 2 = 2

2(2) 2 = 8

16
2(3) 2 = 18

2(4) 2 = 32

Thus, the maximum number of electrons that can be in

Shell 1 is 2

Shell 2 is 8

Shell 3 is 18

Shell 4 is 32

The arrangements of electrons of the various elements (hydrogen, helium,

lithium, sodium, etc.) follow the pattern as laid out on the periodic table of
elements.

Remember, in the beginning, God developed this arrangement with no other

physical things around to model after. Therefore, one can only conclude that
a bodiless intelligence designed the building block of all physical elements-
the atom.

Identify Three Worlds of Reality

The ancients taught us reality is comprised of three worlds:

 The Imperceptible World

 The Immaterial World
 The Material World

The Imperceptible World (Domain of No Things)

The Imperceptible World is a place of no matter, no-things, and further

reduction is impossible. It has no forms, objectivity, or definition. The
Imperceptible World is where God lives with Its two parts-idle
Consciousness and inactive Spirit/Energy.

17
It is distinct from the other worlds because power and matter have not yet
transformed into forms, objects, or creations. If there is no development of
anything, there can be no perception.

The Immaterial World (Domain of Causality)

The Immaterial World is where electromagnetic sub-atomic electromagnetic

particles (photons, leptons, quarks, etc.) that we cannot detect with our five
senses exist. It is a mental world where thinking resides. Everything
originates there (cause), then descends into the Material World and
manifests (effect). We are saying everything starts in the Immaterial World
and then manifests to the Material World.

The Immaterial World is where causes originate before materializing as

formed realities. This domain of causality contains fundamental factors (the
Why) that lie beneath and precede all material things and events. The power
to affect change lies only in the Immaterial World.

God’s Spirit/Energy that executes Will transfers from the Imperceptible

World to the Immaterial World then to the Material World. Look around in
your room. Is there anything there that was not initially an idea in
someone’s Mind?

Man’s Consciousness must “move” from the physical world to the

Immaterial World (Domain of causality) to understand the causal factors of
the conditions he or she is manifesting. Only then, will people realize how
God’s Program operates and be able to accurately see reality, rather than
misunderstand how God’s Program operates in the Immaterial World.

The Material World (Domain of Effects)

The Material World consists of what we can detect with our five senses. It is
a physical world. The Material World is where causes created in the
Immaterial World form material creations or events. What has already
occurred cannot un-occur, therefore, no Spirit/Energy lies in the Material
World. The realm of matter (Domain of Effects) has happened.

Like a dog chasing his tail, most people are not working on the causes of
their problems.

18
Instead, they are working on Material World effects (activism, voting,
economics, education, etc.). Man’s Consciousness is “trapped” in the
Material World, meaning people remain ignorant of the underlying causes
(thoughts, feelings, and behavior) that they set into motion and lead to
suffering in their lives.

Know that in the Material World, you are not looking at problem causes, but
problem symptoms. Manifested realities have formed in the Material World
because of their underlying causes. If those realities are undesirable, then
eliminating their causes is the only way to change them.

Understand God's Attributes

The main attributes of God are qualities so unique that they distinguish
God from all other things in existence. This distinction is necessary because
many people speak about God in terms far beyond our ability to think, and
our Minds get bogged down when we try. To say that it is crucial to know
what God is like is an understatement.

Failure to comprehend qualities of God will lead to behavior contrary to

God's Program. The following is a concise listing of God’s attributes:

19
Omnipresent
Omnipresent means all-existent, the ability to be present anywhere. All
living things share one Consciousness. The basis of God's Omnipresence is
like icebergs in the ocean. They appear separate and in different shapes
above water, while below water, we see they are all a part of the same large
chunk of ice.

Omnipotent

Omnipotent means all-powerful, complete, unlimited, universal power, and

authority. The creations in the world come from segments of Spirit/Energy.
Like water, they can assume any form. Such is the source of countless types
of things making up the world. Having unlimited power; able to be or do
anything is the basis of God’s attribute of Omnipotence.

Omniscient

Omniscient means all-knowing, the ability to understand all there is to

know. A Consciousness that could, with nothing else around, develop the
building blocks of all that is physical (atoms), is the basis of God's
Omniscience. Therefore, since God is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and
Omniscient, It can create anything It desires while keeping perfect
knowledge and complete control.

Embrace God's Program

God’s Program (also called natural order) is a plan that efficiently and
effectively creates order in the Cosmos. It contains the conditions that
govern the consequences of behavior.

Everyone is obligated to God’s Program. No one has any more or less

responsibility than anyone else. Since Man did not create the plan, no
person or group of people can grant or revoke obligation to anyone else.

God, using Its Will to direct Spirit/Energy, created a program that responds
automatically to whatever occurs. God’s Program is a routine, which
manages limitless creations, so they all perform together in perfect
harmony.

20
For example, the interaction between mineral, plant, and animal kingdoms
supports the food chain cycle, water cycle, carbon dioxide cycle, and so on.

These environmental circuits function as directed by God’s Program, the

fixed set of conditions that make life on earth possible.

In the food chain cycle, living organisms die and decompose into nitrogen.
The nitrogen combines with bacteria in the earth, providing food for plants.
Plants provide food for herbivores (rabbits, squirrels, sheep, etc.). Herbivores
provide food for carnivores (lions, tigers, snakes, sharks, etc.). An
unchanging order between food and its consumer is established by God’s
Program.

The Divine program governs the direct, indirect, inter, and intra-
relationships between mineral, plant, animal, and people kingdoms. Know
that conditions, which manage the consequences of the behavior of
intelligent beings, come from God’s Program. When your Consciousness is
in harmony with God’s Program, you will find success and abundance in
life. However, when your Consciousness violates God’s Program, only failure
will result.

God is not Responsible

God is not responsible for the actions of Its program because the program
will bring order without God's input. For the sake of clarity, consider the
following metaphor:

21
 If a Divine man falls from a ten-story building, his pleas for help while
falling will not save him. The Truth of gravity in God's Program will follow
its unchanging directive; what goes up must come down. God will not
intervene. Hitting the ground will smash the Divine man like an egg
dropped on cement. Please understand you cannot plant mangos and
expect oranges. The mango plant houses God's Truths.

God is not responsible for things that result from operations of Its
independently acting program. We live within the limits of the order
determined by the plan. Because of Free Will, we can obey or disobey those
limits. The choice is our own doing and responsibility, not God’s doing. This
discussion should get rid of any arguments saying God produces evil in the
world.

Being in harmony with God's Program is essential because you get united
with the higher power. Another reason is, when called upon, God may turn
situations beyond your control, into your favor. For instance, when you
need a loan approved to buy a new home, or for that cancer checkup to
come back negative. To make a long story short, you need God, and as you
will see, God needs you.

The Hierarchy of Life

God’s Program for universal order is rigid and unchanging. Strict adherence
to the Hierarchy of Life is necessary for your Consciousness to evolve.
Evolving requires Man’s reasoning to proceed by lower-level items regulating
higher-level items.

 Level 1-God
 Level 2-Man's Consciousness (awareness/Will) and the Divine Self-
Image
 Level 3-The nine chief influences of personality types
 Level 4-The minor influences of Talents and variations in behavioral
traits of the chief influences
 Level 5-The Lifeforce

Observance of these conditions enables your Consciousness to reside in the

right place for access to God’s Spiritual power and infinite wisdom. All else

22
needed or significant in your life will follow. Violation of the Hierarchy of Life
will lead to disorder and misfortune.

The Rule is Ma’at

Ma'at is the ancient Eastern elder's concept of proper procedure. It forms

the ethics for God’s Program: the authoritative and everlasting Right,
desired attitude.
The ancients pictured Ma'at as a woman and told us her name means, "That
which is straight”, implying order, Truth, justice, and harmony. The olden
priest used to say you know Ma'at because it works today as yesterday and
tomorrow as today.

We must understand exactly what Truth means. A Truth expresses an

inherent relationship between a cause and its effect that is universal,
objective, and unchanging. Truth regulates Spirit/Energy everywhere in the
Cosmos. Just like building an airplane, you must follow the Truths of
aerodynamics, mechanics, electronics, etc. If you want to use the power of
your Spirit/Energy, you must observe Its Truths in the context of Ma’at.

According to the ancient Eastern savants, God said, It could not make
things until It made Truths, for establishing Its creative acts. Since God
based all on Truths, then Man's behavior, success, and well-being, also
depend on observing Truths. Ma'at is Truth, with her Spirit/Energy of unity
and balance that causes the world to operate on purpose.

Discover God with a Little G

God with a Little G refers to people having the same attributes as God, only
to a lesser degree.

Nearly all Spiritual traditions say, Man was created in the image of God.
What the ancient sages meant is God and Man share the same
Consciousness. Psalm 82.6 in the Christian bible quotes Jesus as saying:

“I have said, ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most high.”

23
However, Western revisionist misinterpreted it as meaning the same
physical features. Do not get it twisted; the saying refers to non-physical
attributes. Quality-wise, Man being the same as God.

Know that God’s attributes affect the entire Cosmos. In contrast, Man’s
attributes only affect what is within his or her mental or physical proximity.
Like the ocean and a drop of water. Although they are the same quality of
water, the impact of the ocean is much more than the drop.
