Confederation Yahweh, part2
If we are to examine the Confederation Yahweh that is presented in the Law of One Material and in the Q’uo channelings1, we must first turn our focus upon the perennial spiritual questions that have always perplexed and delighted humanity.
Who or What is the Creator?
Why is there something (creation) rather than nothing?
Why does creation evolve?
How does creation evolve?
And to what end to creation evolve?
And what is the relationship between the Creator and creation?
All of these questions are interconnected, and each one deserves more depth and breadth that can be achieved here. However, what I offer comes from a sincere seeking and an open heart. I offer what I can based upon my background and limited points of view.
My working definition of the Creator, or God, or the Ground of Being, or Reality, is this:
The Creator is the who, the why, and the how of eternal becoming.
Through the development of Yahweh's gnosis of self as Logos, which is predicated upon the relationship between Yahweh as Creator and third-density Earth's planetary social complex (a communitarian organism) as Creator, the One Infinite Creator refines the Creator's Original Cognition to include a new twist. The Creator learns what it is like to enter into solidarity with Creatorself as third-density humanity. This step in the Creator's experience is called "Emmanuel" (Yod Heh Shin Vau Heh). Finally, with the Jehoshua Gestalt, the Creator through the medium of the sub-Logos (sun as Yahweh) comes into Earth's spacetime experience. This ushers in a new Archetype in the Creator's most articulated archetypal system of sevens. The new Archetype could be called Paschal Mystery and it is one of encounter. In other words, the Creator's own self-gnosis evolves in something like this:
I am [Yahweh]
I am with you all [Emmanuel]
I am in it with you all [Jesus]
I am within you all [Indwelling Presence]
I am you all with each other. [Panentheism in solidarity]
I am you all within each other [Panandroism within Panentheism]
I am you all within each other becoming I am [Panexperiential Relational Processism]

UFO’s and Climate Change: Signs of the Cosmic Liminal Space
DeMarcus Tucker leads a discussion with the Building 4th community about some of the metaphysics described in the Law of One material and the reality of climate change on our 3rd density planet Earth. He explains that the UFO phenomenon (disclosure) and planetary warming are connected to Earth's movement into the 4th density vibrational conditions.
