Creavolution: Reason and the Occult



 Creavolution as an idea is both very complex and simple. Also, in my many years of studying it, the concept has been a bit too vague for me to be able to fully stand behind.  The concept is not vague in the sense of a total interconnection with everything, both sentient and non-sentient in the multi-verse, and not vague in that we can creatively expand our situation in life, whatever that may be. In fact, we are doing this all the time, both consciously and unconsciously. The life changing concepts of Affirmative Fatalism and the Infinite Psychic Field are at the heart of the unifying idea’s of Creavolution.
The vagueness has rather been in the spiritual side of life, which on a certain level is a odd thing to say when talking about Creative-Evolution : mind directed evolution, that we can create our own fate. But still in all I say, yes, vague because there is a consciousness outside of human thought that we are a part of, as is everything in the multi-verse a “part” of.  Just because we have lost or forgotten the song of the trees, rocks and stars, doesn’t mean that they don’t have one. But certainly in this age of Reason, it does.
I’m not writing this to bash scientific reason, but rather to show the inter-connection, the two sides of the same coin, the partnership between scientific thought (Reason) and the metaphysical/esoteric (Occult/Magic).
I guess I should jump right to the bottom line for me, we are a part of/witnessing the beginning of eco-lapse on our planet – an animal that is connected with its surroundings doesn’t destroy it or themselves. We humans have lost our connection to everything, land, sea, air, spirit, ourselves. This loss of connection is driving us insane – correction, we are insane/numb/disconnected.
It’s not the fault of our searching for understanding, our quest for knowledge nor is it the fault for our quest to feel the divine – though certainly part of the fault is that we separate those two things. I think another reason is that we are afraid, afraid of death. We haven’t come to terms with this part of life. It takes us out of the moment, so then we are never stable, never solid. Without being solid you are living in a void and we have built our civilizations within this void. That can only occur so long before we are woven out of the Pattern.
Magic and Science weren’t always separate or rather dare I say Religion and Science weren’t always separate. Our ancestors felt the holiness in all of life, from the stars to the seasons to learning to write and do math – how is it not a divine thing to breathe. To be connected with the trees and oceans. That we breathe out and they in and in turn they breathe out and we in… How is that not holy to feel that connection? Why does it matter that we know the components in the air that makes all that possible? Why does that have to take anything away from either thing?
Being connected with something is a scientific and spiritual process. Whatever it is you’re connecting to, from a math problem to art or philosophy, to connect to it is a meditative process that takes both mind and spirit to achieve.
We also need be humble and open-minded. Just because something makes sense to us right now doesn’t mean it always will – to be anything but humble in our searching  just makes us foolish and shortsighted. We also need to be humble in the sense that we are all really after the same thing, weather you’re reason minded or spiritual minded. So the only “reasonable” thing to do, the only “spiritual” thing to do, is to work together, focus on compatibilities. Keep questioning each others differences, never stop questioning, but as allies, comrades, partners.
Of course, where we run into big problems with all of these thoughts, is from the extremes at both ends – the “it’s all random” and “it’s all faith” people/idea. Life isn’t black and white, it is incredibly complex, more so than any of us can at this point understand. There is a myriad of ways that thoughts start billions of reactions that spread a million different ways spurring countless other thoughts and reactions that then either materialize or continue to be built upon and grow, which in turn continues the entire process even farther into infinite degrees in countless directions.
When you focus on one extreme or another, you are in essence singling out one thing that actually exists because of the billions upon billions of other things which all affect each other. So you are blinding yourself from the essences of the thing which you are focusing upon, therein canceling them out and living within a void.
So this Consciousness that we are a part of…
I haven’t achieved, by any stretch of the imagination, to feeling 8th Consciousness or enlightenment, so I can’t say what or how this Consciousness is. I have snippets (like all of us) of feeling it, but beyond that…
I do know that the way to connect, to communicate with that Consciousness, is by utilizing both our minds and spirits. (thought = focus  spirit = will : the gateway to communicate with the All)
Without thought there is nothing to articulate, to focus upon, no focus no meditation/prayer to pour your will into and then the result is no manifestation, no connection, co communication.
If we don’t get this unity into ourselves and start applying it in all aspects of our lives, bring true action/work to our ideals, then we are doomed. We must fight our conditioning. We must fight our negative dogma training. We must unify our mind and spirit. Tear down our walls, built within the void, and forge ahead within the light of Reason and Religion.
