The symbology of 7, and a summary of the teaching [IF8]

Here we are, then, at the last meeting for this cycle of teaching, taking up the threads of what has been said up to this point and which constitutes - alas! - only a smattering, an introduction, to what concerns the problem of the unconscious.

Hearing you discuss this afternoon, all the points on which you have unclear ideas have been highlighted, and also the many points on which we hoped you would come to understand - after reasoning - on your own, without the need for our help.
On the other hand, if we are here, it is right that we take up our cross, we set out on our Calvary and go - giving you "present" - towards the summit of the mountain, hoping that you will follow us, of course, perhaps even without a cross: we bring it for you, don't worry!

Have you ever wondered, creatures, (in all these years in which we, more than once, have said that what we tell you is schematized, rationalized, codified and sometimes expressed in categories only for your understanding) why we talked about seven planes of existence?

According to logic, speaking of 7 planes of existence, of 7 subplanes, of 7 materials, of 7 sub-materials and on and on and on, all in all, it seems like a big complication: it could already be partly easier to speak of a single plane of existence constituted for example from 49 types of matter that intersected each other giving way to what you perceive as reality, is it right? Of course, remembering 49 types of matter could have been difficult for you, but it would not have been so necessary to bore you with 49 differentiations of the composition of matter!

So, if this division has been made into 7 planes, perhaps - in addition to the possibility of offering you a logical-rational mental scheme of some kind, to which you can apply your ability to follow what we said - it could be for a symbolic reason: you know. that we never say a thing with only one meaning, in one direction only!

So, all together, now, as good guys, bring out the symbolism that can be in this talk of seven planes of existence.
I know that those who have followed the meetings of Ananda's fables now live… daily with symbolism and therefore it will be facilitated, however we all feel, we give everyone the opportunity to look for a symbolism in these seven planes of existence; not only that, but a symbolism is needed that can be useful to add something new.

D - Four plus three equals seven, right?

So? Even five plus two!

D - Now let me explain: on the one hand there is triality, there is this three as an aspect of the manifestation of the Absolute and on the one hand there is the four that could - always with the conditional, because it is not that I have a clear idea - representing the lower bodies, an aspect of how the Absolute emanates through the septenary, the seven planes.

Something that has more or less already been said. He does not add anything new, nor does he explain, basically, why to speak of seven floors.

D - Because if there are seven they are not eight, and they are not six ...

Ah, there is none on this shadow of doubt!

D - You were talking about symbolism, we are talking about structure, not about something that can be ...

"You" were talking about structure, "io”I was talking about symbolism: it is another matter, a different discourse. So give me an answer in a symbolic key, not in a structural key, otherwise the dialectic, the discussion, does not make any sense: it is a blind man who speaks to a deaf person!

D - Seven is not the number of our cosmos?

Also.

D - Seven is a number that often comes back in ...

Il seven it is a number that has particular characteristics. I could have given you a trace by reminding you that years ago I had spoken to you of a philosophical-metaphysical language that I had brought from my experience in the bosom of Atlantis.
The seven, I said, has a particular characteristic: considering the seven units, one of these constitutes the center of the whole, with three units on one side and three units on the other, also because, to please our friend L., three plus three plus one equals seven. You go ahead, at this point: I have given you a road, an address on which to set out.

D - Well, duality ... balance, so ...

The balance may already be fine, somehow, but there is something more, referring of course (let's remember the starting points) to something that was present in your discussion this afternoon.

D - The three material bodies, the three superior bodies and the fourth, that is the Akasic body which acts as a link between these two triples.

Oh, great! Therefore we can identify in the structure of the matter that we have given of the individuality a central body which is the Akasic body which constitutes the pivot of the balance of the individuality also constituted, as you know, by three planes of spiritual matter and three planes of matter lower ... even if it is only a schematization of convenience, so much so that today, when I heard you make a distinction between spiritual matter of the higher planes and non-spiritual matter of the lower planes, if I had had a skin I would have crawled, because the matter of lower planes is as much spiritual matter as that of the higher planes! But maybe it was just a wrong way of expressing himself.

At this point, we have ours Akasic body at the center of individuality which, as we have recently examined, receives the impulses coming from the spark that tends to try to make this Akasic body recognize its own structure, its way of being and its own nature and then rejoin it and go on and on and Street; and, at the same time, we have the stimuli that come from the lower planes which, in turn, serve as a material, as a substrate, as an impulse so that the Akasic body receives understanding and, therefore, increases its own feel; and, consequently, by increasing your feeling, you get closer and closer to the spark, to rediscover your union with the Absolute.

This means that this Akasic body is somehow a limit, a very important barrier. There was no doubt about that, of course.
You had asked, among you, if there is a censorship in the Akasic body and the question, from a certain point of view, can be considered legitimate but, perhaps, it would have been more correct to put it in other terms: "it is not possible that the body Akasico, in its totality, has the function of censorship? ".

Q - So face as a filter?

It always acts as a filter, like it or not. Scifo

In this way we close, tonight, a difficult cycle of teaching, difficult for all of you and difficult for the instruments, but we hope it will be useful for each of you, taken individually.
I really hope that all of this will be useful for you. Florian

Remember that in this age when all values ​​seem to collapse, in which hope truly seems to have become a worthless thing, in which whoever speaks speaks only for the purpose of personal advantage, and whoever is silent is silent only because, by keeping silent, he hides his work ... Authorless

... in this age, children, in which the paths of spirituality seem to gradually dry up and become more and more difficult to follow, we hope that each of you - who knows at least a part of the Truth - will not keep it closed or hidden , does not prevent it from flowing in some way to reach others, to other creatures, and is aware of the responsibility it held in its hands when it agreed to come into contact, knowing these Truths.

Only in this way, children, can each of you make your contribution so that the world truly becomes what it must become, that is, a world that is finally new. Authorless

  1. Reading the symbols is not immediate for me, and despite having read the symbolism of n. 7 I did not remember. This rereading is therefore very useful. It struck me instead, because I also mentioned in another post, that the aKasico body works as a censor by passing from the other floors what we can actually manage and work. The opposite of censorship in a psychoanalytic key.

  2. A closing post that invites you to take a look back and reflect on new concepts: psychosomatism, censorship, etc. Other pieces that integrate an increasingly refined and subtle vision of the Real. Thank you.

  3. Complex concepts, to be digested. The last sentence struck me "or, finally, a new world". I have associated that new with better, but this cannot be, because the best and the worst are concepts of a dual vision, while in Being there is only unity. So what is the meaning of that adjective?

  4. Two concepts arise in me

    Knowing how to love what we are: even if the interference of all bodies filter and shield the Absolute, we cannot forget that we are ALWAYS an aspect of It.
    That Love towards oneself becomes Absolute Love.

    The responsibility that arises from approaching that Love obliges, without leaving a choice, everyone to make himself a gift for the world

    thank you
