The Fourth Testament’s Third Chamber
Living Truthfully
We know that mastering life is about thinking, communicating, creating, feeling, knowing, and remembering intelligently, which means mastering the inward and outward aspects of the six core energies these abilities represent.
As humans on Earth, you have been especially inclined to think, communicate, and create rather than to feel, know, and remember, as indicated by the outdated Christian cross, which suggests you have been closer to life’s physical, feminine side than to its spiritual, masculine side.
As humans evolve away from the animal phase of life’s eternal spiral toward the compassionate phase, feeling becomes more important, while thinking begins to lose its grip on the human experience of Earthly life.
However, the more humans connect with their capacity to feel energy, the better they begin to think, communicate, and create as well.
Learning to feel, which means becoming more sensitive cosmic beings, is the very thing that will ultimately enable the prophecy of an earthly paradise, and it begins with resolving the seven problem areas of feeling, historically referred to as the deadly sins.
Revelations 21-27
REVELATION 21
The deadly sin of Greed
The definition of greed
Greed is the Christian term for unhealthy thinking, often expressed as a desire to have more than is fair or proportionate to what you contribute to the cosmic harmony, resulting in a disability to connect with healthy visions, create realistic plans, and express them in a humble way to the world.
But why do people want more than is fair?
Why do people love bargains, meaning paying less than something is worth?
Why do we believe we can cheat in life?
The answer to these questions is that people believe it’s possible to take shortcuts because they don’t understand what love is.
They believe love is what they desire, but the truth is that love is the healthy desire that leads to a harmonious life for you and others.
The root cause of greed
The root cause of greed is a misunderstanding of life and God, a so-called unhealthy thinking.
Two thousand years ago, around the time of Jesus’s death, the understanding of God was almost nonexistent among people on Earth, which explains the highly distorted creation we call the Bible.
At that time, people were aiming very low in life, happy if they could survive the day without being beaten and immensely grateful if they could have a decent portion of tasty food, especially meat, which was too expensive to have except on a true feast.
For this reason, the term greed had a different meaning than it does in today’s world.
Being greedy a long time ago, meaning thinking unhealthily, was about aiming too low, whereas nowadays it often is about aiming too high.
However, the root cause is the same, namely a misunderstanding of who we truly are.
Being greedy today compared to in the past
Two hundred years ago, relatively few people were greedy for money and material possessions simply because it was too unrealistic to achieve anything of value through hard work, given that their wages, if any, were so low.
Consequently, in some ways, greed signals a positive societal development in which not only the priest and the village mayor but also others have a fair chance to put some extra cash in their own pockets.
It signals that societies have become more humane and more equal.
However, why is greed a deadly sin in the sense that it amounts to unintelligent thinking? It is because nothing blocks the flow of energy as much as the tendency to want too much for yourself.
Therefore, greed is the root disease of our financial systems. Let me clarify.
If there were no point to hoarding money in your bank account, there wouldn’t be any dis-ease, meaning a lack of ease in how the money flows, meaning there would be no inflation.
So, why is it necessary to save money in today’s world? It is because we cannot fully trust that we will have a good life as we get older unless we have some spare capital.
And why can’t we trust that life will be good for us? It is because we have built a system that requires no inflation, meaning we encounter problems if houses and food, to mention two things, become too expensive. Specifically, we encounter the problem that some people will become wealthier and some poorer. Those who own the land and the producing assets will get richer, and those who work and earn a salary will become poorer.
Consequently, greed leads to a system in which everyone saves their money instead of consuming, which enables them to pay more than what is reasonable for the really sought-after products, which creates inflation, which forces people to save even more before they can invest in the things they need to enjoy life, such as a house or a car.
The more like-minded people are, meaning the more widespread the disease of unhealthy thinking, the greater the inflation and the greater the disease in the flow of money.
The point here is to explain that unhealthy thinking is the root cause of inflation, an increasingly difficult enemy at the beginning of the third millennium, which will eventually ruin the financial system as we know it.
Greed and money
People believe they are rational when they save their money for the future, and in some ways they are.
However, it’s deeply against the principles of life to hoard anything but wisdom.
The more we accumulate through unhealthy thinking, the older we become, suggesting that everyone should have the right to own a plot of land that can sustain their life instead of having to work for someone else who probably inherited the land from someone who stole it from someone who stole it from someone else.
We will never get rid of the problem of greed until everyone has a fair chance to sustain themselves without having to work for someone else, which requires the right to own land.
With close to ten billion people on this planet, this prophecy, which is part of creating an earthly paradise, can only be fulfilled once people have become so grounded that they can feel where they truly want to live rather than base their desires on what is most popular.
Getting rid of greed in this world
Living a comfortable life isn’t greedy, but having a huge motor yacht that you use only once a year just because you can is greedy, unless you share it with others throughout the year.
Drinking expensive wine isn’t greedy, but buying so many bottles that they eventually spoil in your own cellar, undrinkable, is.
So, being greedy is having more than you need to live a fantastic life because you have the financial means for it, and it’s a disease that destroys the world.
It’s a disease that must be cured in the same way all diseases are cured, namely by understanding their root cause.
So, what is the root cause of greed? As mentioned above, it is a misunderstanding of life, specifically the belief that you can die.
When you are afraid of dying, you are afraid of living. And when you are afraid of living, you can’t connect authentically with life, represented by plants, animals, humans, and spiritual beings. Instead, you seek fulfillment in the stimulation you get from acquiring more personal belongings.
And what is the remedy for people who fear death? From these people's perspective, the only medicine worth its name is to avoid death by engaging in longevity experiments.
However, from a cosmically correct perspective, since longevity initiatives won’t work and instead represent the ultimate expression of greed, the only medicine that works is to understand who you are.
Living among greedy people
Wishing for more than you need to live a fantastic, materially abundant life is, literally speaking, a disease that stems from the fear of dying, which is a result of unawareness of who you are.
This disease is far worse than any virus, which actually helps energy flow better in your bodies, meaning it’s the opposite of disease.
Can you see why the Christian cross, as shown in symbol 4 in Revelation 1, is upside down?
People actively strive toward a state of disease and fear nature’s natural healing response, as represented by various viruses.
This is the reality we live in at the beginning of the third millennium, and it won’t change from one day to the next but gradually over a few centuries.
People live in distorted ways, and they don’t yet understand this.
Therefore, don’t underestimate how much you must change your life to align with the cosmic heartbeat.
Unless you connect deeply with nature, this transition will probably not be possible.
Greed from the highest perspective
Wanting more than is fair is a mental illness that stems from confusion about who you are.
This mental disease is more contagious than any virus you’ve ever come across, but unlike a virus, it harms life.
The greedier you are, the more likely you are to fear viruses, suggesting that wealthy people in the West do what they can to fight them, while poor people in the East and South don’t bother much.
We can say that the greedy Westerners fight the wrong virus, as immature Christ beings so often do.
This is the definition of a projection, namely trying to solve your personal issues by creating an external enemy.
From the highest perspective, greed is projecting your unhealed limitations onto the external world, attempting to fill the hole inside you with gold.
The three strategies to overcome greed
The first step in learning to live as a cosmic being, meaning to live truthfully as who you are, is to think unaffected by the disease we call greed, which is essentially a fear of death that you try to counter by accumulating physical things.
The more afraid you are, the more you tend to hoard, leading to imbalances in the financial system.
However, the greatest imbalance of them all stems from the time when kings and noblemen divided the land among themselves, a monumental theft from the people.
Overcoming your greed, meaning learning to think healthily, which doesn’t mean suppressing your material desires, assuming they are healthy, effectively entails the following three steps:
Reading and understanding The Fourth Testament or any other source of cosmic truth.
Realizing that greed is merely a state of confusion, which is relatively harmless compared to many other deadly sins.
Gradually replacing greedy desires with healthy ones as you find happiness in reality rather than in your mental activity.
REVELATION 22
The deadly sin of Pride
The definition of pride
The Christian definition of the word pride is unhealthy communication, referring to an inability to express yourself authentically and/or to receive others’ authentic expressions.
Pride may seem harmless compared with greed, but it isn’t.
While greed can be easily cured by a correct understanding of life, pride sits deeper in the human psyche.
Without pride, we unconsciously believe we don’t deserve to live.
So, the more we disalign with the cosmic heartbeat, the prouder we must be to protect ourselves from the truth, suggesting that our ability to change is very low.
The root cause of pride
If people understood life and their role in it, they wouldn’t try to be something they are not.
They wouldn’t post an update on social media saying life is fantastic if they were suffering inside. And if they felt good inside, they wouldn’t feel the urge to share that with the world either.
However, if they didn’t feel entirely good, they might have an incentive to communicate to the world that they are indeed very good, in a hopeless attempt to make it so.
Therefore, pride can be understood as an unconscious attempt to heal yourself without doing anything other than creating a lie you might begin to believe.
Pride as the root cause of victimhood
If you have created a lie that your life is good and that you are a good person, despite struggling with money, superficial relationships, and health issues, what can you do?
You can blame someone.
In fact, this is the only thing you can do, other than beginning to expose your self-made lie, which is usually a person’s absolute last resort, an option they are even unaware of.
Understanding a narcissist
All Christ beings are narcissists to some degree, ranging from mild to severe.
In mild cases, you mistakenly blame those who truly do bad things in life, such as thieves and murderers, for your misfortunes, while in severe cases, you blame those who truly support you, without whom your life would be even worse.
But why don’t we realize that our misfortunes are our own fault? As already mentioned, it is because we are disaligned from life, meaning we don’t fulfill our role in creation. We are aware of this deep inside, but instead of doing the hard work of realigning ourselves, we unconsciously protect ourselves in pride for who we are right now.
We can say that a narcissist is too lazy to change.
But why is the narcissist disaligned from life to begin with? The starting point is usually a lack of nurturing as a young baby, which early on instills the belief that life is a harsh place.
If the child felt safe, it would share all discomfort authentically with their parents, especially their mother, but since the source of the discomfort is often the parents, this doesn’t work. Instead, the child must swallow the pain, choosing between seeing themselves as a bad person and seeing the world as a fearful place.
To be on the safe side, the child typically employs both strategies at once, reinforcing the belief that they are largely hopeless and that the world is an impossible place to feel safe.
Growing up, they develop self-destructive habits combined with an aggressive attitude toward life, often masked by a polished surface that signals they are good and the world is bad.
Healing narcissistic tendencies
Everyone is a narcissist to some degree, but as a reader of The Fourth Testament, you are most likely only mildly narcissistic.
You probably realize that you can only change the world by changing yourself, though it is sometimes tempting to take the illusory shortcut of trying to change someone else to your liking.
You know that you will heal gradually as you continue to live. However, if your issues are a little deeper, you might find support in eating small doses of various mushrooms, so-called microdosing.
This brings you the mushroom’s consciousness and expertise in gradually reconnecting aspects of yourself that you have disconnected from, through a slightly or more than slightly turbulent healing journey.
When you realize that some parts of you are not doing very well, the lie starts to crack, marking the beginning of the healing process.
At this point, you must replace the harmful and false childhood beliefs about life, which you can only do if you are surrounded by people who have healed much more than you.
Becoming proud of who you are in a healthy way
Being healthily proud of your achievement isn’t a deadly sin but the opposite. The deadly sin of pride refers only to the unconscious mechanism of creating a superficial protection around yourself by directing your awareness away from the root of your issues to the outside world.
The more you cultivate awareness within yourself, the faster you change, and the sooner you can begin to do things that align with life, which gives you a natural sense of pride.
The three strategies to overcome pride
Living truthfully with life requires that you realize you are not a victim of your circumstances but, more likely, someone who has shielded yourself a bit from life because it was too hard on you when you grew up.
Your path is to grow up, though a bit later than it would have been in an ideal world, such as paradise.
In summary, you need to address the following three areas of your life:
Since pride reveals a sometimes profound disconnection from life, it can take a long time to heal and to become aware of it. Therefore, the first strategy is to assume that you suffer more from pride than you might think. Especially if you hold yourself back in many situations, or reveal a version of yourself that is artificially created rather than your essence, and you have a strong desire to appear good-looking to others, it’s quite likely that you suffer from pride.
The most effective way to address narcissistic tendencies, which fall under pride, is to cooperate with so-called magic mushrooms, especially in the form of micro-dosing.
Healthy self-esteem can sometimes resemble unhealthy pride, but their root causes are as different as day and night. While the former stems from a correct understanding of who you are, the latter stems from a false understanding. Therefore, be careful when you label others as severe narcissists.
REVELATION 23
The deadly sin of Sloth
The definition of sloth
The Christian term sloth essentially refers to unhealthy creativity, either because of an inability to play your part in life by taking appropriate action, or by failing to allow life to play its part in what you might perceive as your own creations.
In our world, people tend to mask their slothful behavior by doing a lot of things that aren’t very relevant and by effectively avoiding the right and usually far more difficult areas.
They also tend to believe that their creative processes are only their business, while the cosmic truth is that we are one being and that everyone has a say in what you do, directly or indirectly.
Only by understanding that life is a co-creative process can you surrender and let the real miracles, meaning the beautiful manifestations of energy, take place.
Essentially, unhealthy creativity results from a lack of faith in life.
The root cause of poor faith
Similar to the wounded narcissist who attempts to find love through pride, the lazy person attempts to become as happy as possible by failing as little as possible, meaning by taking as few bold decisions as possible.
This type of person has low faith in life because they have faced many challenges without overcoming them, typically in past lives.
Living in a world of lazy people
People aren’t necessarily lazy about getting out of bed and going to work; almost the opposite. They’re lazy about doing the things that could truly improve their lives, not necessarily because of fear of change, but because they believe they will fail and thereby make things even worse.
This poor faith makes it hard for people to pursue significant life projects, such as moving to another country where they could have greater chances to thrive, taking a chance on someone they fancy, or simply changing their career.
It’s as if people must suffer even more before they begin to do things differently, and they will.
From life’s perspective, the only way to get lazy people to improve their life situation is to put pressure on them by supporting processes that make their unhealthy societal structures collapse.
For this reason, you can expect more disruptive politics in the next century than you might have grown accustomed to after the Second World War and the ensuing awakened desire to cooperate and compromise.
Don’t view increased turbulence as something bad
In a world where people lack the necessary faith to begin doing things differently, life must give them that faith, which can only happen by creating situations that seem bad but turn out to be positive.
This is the sole mechanism for building faith.
The more faith you have, the more you can trust that something that initially appears to go in the wrong direction will ultimately turn out well.
If you have almost no faith in life, you control every little detail, including how many kilos you weigh, how often you exercise, and how often you make love, rather than flowing with life’s natural rhythm and accepting every state as perfect given what is possible right now.
Initially, life creates small challenges for people, such as a pandemic that makes it possible to work more from home and brings more freedom to their lives, along with better health, assuming you had the trust not to intervene in life’s intelligent processes. And later, the challenges will get bigger along with the benefits.
Becoming less slothful
In this context, becoming less slothful means growing your faith, which you do by living.
When people historically asked for their daily bread in the outdated Lord’s Prayer, they ultimately asked for a stronger faith in life, which equals the nourishment that makes your ‘spiritual muscles’ – your ability to think correctly – grow.
Nothing can make this faith grow more than when you are tested for a long time and eventually realize that everything was progressing perfectly all along, even though you couldn’t see it, as when the Israelites spent forty years in the desert to connect with the truth of the cosmic heart before they could enter the Promised Land.
Without learning who you truly are, you can never enter paradise, only be fed manna or bread along the path.
Understand this, and you will likely grow your faith in God much faster, thus realizing the prophecy of paradise, perhaps already in this incarnation.
Three strategies to overcome sloth
Sloth isn’t the deadliest of sins and is especially mild compared to pride.
It’s almost low-hanging fruit for people to start taking more chances in life, especially when they are young.
In summary, there are three critical areas to reflect on to become less slothful.
Realize that it isn’t about being lazy but about lacking faith in life, suggesting it cannot be healed through discipline. In fact, trying to apply discipline to your life will make things worse, as this normally entails pushing rather than flowing with life.
Grow your faith slowly by observing how life supports healthy actions rather than unhealthy ones.
Know that slothfulness, as many people wrongly understand it, meaning a bit lazy instead of disciplined, is mostly healthy and balancing in a world where most people move too fast.
REVELATION 24
The deadly sin of Wrath
The definition of wrath
The Christian term wrath essentially describes an unhealthy ability to feel energy because of trauma or a primitive emotional system that can only sense life’s coarser energies, such as wrath, rather than sadness.
It doesn’t refer to the healthy ability to express anger that’s stuck or release deeply buried primitive emotions, but to the tendency to fail to sense our own and life’s vulnerability.
Going forward, becoming more sensitive is the only way to bring humanity to higher levels of happiness.
Seeking protection behind false strength
So often, we feel hurt and disappointed by other people or by life’s unfolding, but we hide this sadness because of fear.
Specifically, we fear being weak, which suggests that we will soon be eaten by a dangerous animal or humiliated by our boss at work – two things we definitely do not want.
So, we don’t allow ourselves to be vulnerable, but we express our disappointment as anger.
And if we feel a bit sad afterward, we quickly transmute that feeling into guilt, effectively guarding ourselves from the real sadness deep within.
In fact, being sad is the last thing we want to be, especially if we have been hurt by others, because nothing makes it clearer to ourselves and others that we are miserable. That we are losers.
The only way to get out of this is to understand that it’s natural to fail sometimes, just as it’s natural to succeed sometimes.
If we had only success, we couldn’t appreciate it, suggesting that failing and being weak are essential to a happy life.
We must understand that life is temporary, meaning today’s loss is tomorrow’s win.
Becoming a winner
The path to becoming a winner isn’t about always beating your human opponents, who you might be better at and, therefore, able to consistently win against, but about realizing who your real opponent is, which is yourself.
By competing only with yourself, you haven’t made life easier but far more difficult, because it will be impossible to win consistently.
Sometimes, about half the time, you will lose, and you cannot change this because this is how life is wired.
As you evolve, life always increases the difficulty for you, meaning that you must be both sad and happy even in paradise.
The only difference between life in paradise and ordinary human life is how you embrace your sadness.
In paradise, you don’t need anger but can go straight to the beautiful sadness, feeling like a fragile flower about to die, even if you are normally a strong man.
If you can be so utterly weak, you can also be incredibly strong, capable of moving mountains in this world.
Three strategies to overcome wrath
In our competitive world, it isn’t easy to be vulnerable, so we must seek the company of truly authentic, sensitive, and compassionate people, along with plants, animals, and compassionate, enlightened, and divine beings.
By doing so, we quickly accelerate our healing, as summarized below:
Find the courage to be vulnerable by primarily surrounding yourself with people who don’t judge, meaning people who have healed significantly.
Know that expressing anger is often healthy, as long as you don’t do it to escape sadness.
The only way to connect with your vulnerability is sometimes to stop believing in outdated norms about masculinity and femininity and to realize that, for example, a man cannot be stronger than he is vulnerable.
REVELATION 25
The deadly sin of Envy
The definition of envy
Envy is the Christian term for unhealthy intuition, or unhealthy knowing, which essentially refers to an inability to know your truth, often because you focus too much on others.
When you envy others, you shift your awareness away from yourself, creating a disconnection that can only lead you down the wrong path in life, often striving for other people’s praise and acknowledgment rather than for your own.
The only way to overcome this deadly sin is to recognize that you are a sovereign being, representing a unique aspect of God.
The root cause of envy
As a young child, the only thing you want is your parent’s unconditional love, but historically, the only thing you were offered was conditional love, meaning appreciation if you behaved as they wanted you to.
Actually, there was no space for you to be yourself or to explore who you were, and you always wanted something. You wanted to be accepted for who you are.
So, envy, in contrast to greed, is wanting something you truly need.
Therefore, we could be so extremely jealous of a friend who appeared to receive parental affection if we couldn’t.
Again, this wasn’t greed but pure envy.
Letting our envy guide us in life
Few things guide us in life as accurately as our envy.
If we envy our friend who earns much more money than we do or is a much better tennis player, it is because they have something we lack, and we project it onto their superficial success.
So, probably, it isn’t their money or their excellent tennis forehand we want, but the underlying abilities that have created this for them, such as the ability to work with discipline or to aim high without holding oneself back.
Therefore, when we envy another person, we have an excellent opportunity to learn about ourselves, especially if we are capable of feeling ourselves deeply and seeking more profound explanations for our envy than money, muscles, or popularity.
When envy becomes a problem
Among deeply unconscious people, envy can lead to obsession and crime against others, often entire groups of people.
There are many examples of this in human history, with massive and relatively recent ones being the genocides in the Balkans, in Rwanda, and in Nazi Germany, to mention just a few.
When people, instead of letting their envy grow into the most brutal emotions, recognize the benefits of emotional intimacy with those who have what we lack, planet Earth becomes a human paradise.
How envy blocks our growth
As already mentioned, a conscious person’s envy toward another person can yield many helpful insights for that person’s healing, while an unconscious person’s envy can potentially lead to massacres that no animal could come close to committing. Let’s now focus on the issues with the mild and useful envy.
By being too absorbed in other people, even their good sides, you tend to create a false vision of what you need to be happy.
Yes, your envy can point to a weakness in you, which is helpful to realize, but it can also heighten your urgency to heal this aspect of yourself right now.
Therefore, we naturally tend to detach from those we envy. We simply don’t want to be constantly reminded of how useless we are compared with the other person.
Needless to say, this behavior can become a burden in your life, not least by creating friction in your social life. Therefore, don’t stigmatize, but express how you feel toward your friend.
Tell them that you envy their successful career or their skilled tennis game, and you might be surprised by how much you grow almost instantly.
In fact, healing is about allowing energy to flow more freely, and there is no lower-hanging fruit in this area than expressing your envy to someone.
Three strategies to overcome envy
Envy is a rather mild deadly sin and often something that can be helpful in getting to know yourself better.
However, it can also harm your focus on the things that are relevant to you, namely your truths and your ambitions.
In summary, address the deadly sin of envy by keeping an eye on the following three areas:
See envy for what it is, namely a confused focus in life, rooted in misunderstandings about how you become truly happy.
Realize that envy shows that your focus is slightly off, but that it is so for a reason: you might be able to learn something about yourself by asking what you lack that someone else has. When doing so, look deeply within for the correct answer.
Treat envy as you would treat a sick person, with compassion rather than judgment.
REVELATION 26
The deadly sin of Gluttony
The definition of gluttony
The Christian term gluttony can be translated as an unhealthy memory, meaning remembering the things you should have let go of instead of letting them be the inspiration for your visions and plans.
The more you hold on to energy that no longer supports your evolution, the fatter you become, burdening your spiritual bodies and reducing your zest for life, often manifesting as a heavier-than-necessary physical body.
The remedy for gluttony is to let go of everything that no longer serves you, which is akin to mastering the art of dying.
Mastering the twelfth and thirteenth cosmic Commandments, which relate to mastering the sixth core energy of life, memory, entails embracing your deepest fears, of which the illusion of dying (meaning transformation) is the greatest.
The root cause of gluttony
Gluttony stems from low self-esteem, such as the belief that you aren’t worthy of more.
So, you give yourself more to prove that you honor yourself, but you don’t give yourself what truly makes you happy. You give yourself bad things instead of good things.
How to overcome gluttony
Overcoming gluttony is often a long journey that entails building a healthy sense of self, which ultimately relates to your ability to remember who you truly are and what is good for you.
Often, life tests this ability in you, clearly showing that a person isn’t good for you, before a new situation arises after a while in which the same person appears very good for your life.
It’s as if life is giving you the unhealthy cake to eat, making you feel bad about yourself, before offering a seemingly healthier option, which, however, is the same unhealthy cake presented in another light, persuading you to eat a bit more of it, in a process that can go back and forth forever, until you put a stick in the ground and say enough.
No one can overcome your tendency to want less for yourself, which typically manifests as overweight, though it’s also possible to go to the other extreme of anorexia.
In both cases, you must recognize that you are unconsciously punishing yourself for not being good enough by surrounding yourself with energies that are less than they could be, including everything from work and people to food and drinks.
Needless to say, maybe, drug addicts and alcoholics, along with pedophiles, rapists, murderers, and more, usually have very low self-esteem, which they unconsciously try to heal by indulging in things that aren’t good for them.
Becoming healthy
You can only become healthy through the process of healing, which entails mastering the Thirteen Cosmic Commandments, enabling the inward and outward aspects of life’s six core energies to flow through you with ease rather than dis-ease.
In this process, gluttony, although potentially severe, is one of the first things you must address, often by letting go of everything that isn’t good for you, even if you’re attached to it.
Often, this is too difficult for people to do, suggesting that life does it for them.
Therefore, you shouldn’t view divorces, lost friendships, lost job opportunities, premature deaths among loved ones, and more as bad things.
Of course, all losses require processing, but more often than not, actually always, losses lead to new opportunities. Opportunities that are more valuable to you than the losses, although you cannot always see it from an earthly perspective.
Life never stops testing you
As long as you aren’t perfect, which you never will be, life will keep testing you, implying that you should never seek complete stillness, except temporarily to recover your appetite for more life.
If your ultimate dream is to sit in front of a fireplace in your perfectly decorated house, with so much money in the bank account that you will surely have enough for the rest of your life, and maybe even for your children and grandchildren, you are creating an illusion that will never materialize.
Instead, learn that life both gives and takes, the only realization that helps you enjoy what you have without attachment.
Three strategies to overcome gluttony
Gluttony is something that everyone struggles with to some extent, but some people, especially those who tend to gain weight easily, have rather severe problems, often coinciding with self-destructive behavior that often stems from a rather brutal childhood.
These people must realize that they are protecting themselves from something by being less than they could be.
In summary, you should be aware of the following three areas to live truthfully, without succumbing to the deadly sin we call gluttony.
Treat gluttony as you would treat someone who is starving, namely by giving them food. However, make sure that you don’t feed the cravings but rather the underlying reason for them, which is often that you are too harsh on yourself and too kind to others, meaning you are a bit or a lot masochistic.
Understand that gluttony cannot be treated with starvation but only with love, meaning it’s impossible to stop craving something as long as there’s a hole to fill. This hole is usually tied to a misunderstanding about who you are, such as the belief that you need a certain type of friend in your life or that you need a certain amount of money to be happy.
Gluttony, meaning an unhealthy attachment, is most easily cured by connecting deeply with nature.
REVELATION 27
The deadly sin of Lust
The definition of lust
The Christian term lust can be understood as unhealthy love, meaning the intention to create something harmonious that actually becomes disharmonious, either because life’s masculine or feminine side is too dominant.
The only way to create harmony in life is to think, communicate, create, feel, know, and remember healthily, which equals mastering the Thirteen Cosmic Commandments.
Healthy lust
A healthy appetite for life, or simply healthy lust, is marked by a healthy balance between life’s North and South Poles, meaning life’s masculine and feminine principles, both originating in the cosmic heart.
From the most obvious perspective, this healthy approach to life is represented by the ability to advance and nurture life in a balanced way, which means finding a healthy balance between wanting more and appreciating what you already have.
However, from a deeper perspective, we must also include the balance between East and West, meaning our ability to create healthy visions and plans connected with our soul on the one hand and to manifest physical realities that we can feel on the other.
If we consistently aim too high so that we can never manifest anything, we become unbalanced, just as if we constantly aim too low so that we don’t manifest anything meaningful and transformative.
By finding a healthy balance between wanting more and appreciating what we already have, and between aiming high and being able to manifest our visions as tangible realities, we become balanced elements of creation.
In this context, the deadly sin of lust points to the tendency to dishonor our essence, meaning embodying the perfect balance of the cosmic heart.
Increasing your lust
The tendency among most people is to aim too low in life, meaning they fulfill only a fraction of their potential, which leads to bitterness as they age.
The reason they aim too low is that they are too disconnected from their souls, meaning they are too disconnected from the land they live on, which makes them unduly fearful.
The starting point for resolving this issue is, as so often, to connect with nature.
There is simply no other way to connect with your soul than to actively seek contact with the earth that nourishes you.
Avoiding exaggerated lust
The opposite of aiming too low in life is obviously aiming too high, often driven by low self-esteem.
Think about it. How can you quickly create a positive feeling about yourself?
The answer is to think that you achieve something great, and maybe accentuate that feeling by communicating your ambitious plans to someone else, especially someone who won’t question you or ask too many uncomfortable questions.
By doing this, you are creating a false sense of self, which, if it continues to inflate, will lead you to take rights you don’t have, such as raping a child or a woman, without understanding that you are doing wrong.
You have become what many people call a psychopath.
From the highest perspective, a psychopath is someone with a distorted self-image stemming from low self-esteem.
Living in a world of psychopaths
A patriarchy is full of psychopaths, meaning people with low self-esteem who believe they have the right to commit rape.
Luckily, things are not as bad as they used to be, at least not in the Western world, but the tendency remains.
Men still tend to believe they have rights that women don’t, especially regarding lust, meaning sex.
As long as this is the case, men won’t experience the abundance of love they dream of and often believe they have the right to.
Living in paradise
By discussing the seven deadly sins, I wanted to help people scrutinize themselves or at least provide a framework for those who want to heal as quickly as possible.
It’s essential to understand that people aren’t ready for a paradisical experience of life on a broader scale at the beginning of the third millennium, but that you, assuming you have read the entire fourth Christian Testament with excitement, most likely are.
This isn’t a negative ending to The Fourth Testament’s third Chamber but a necessary truth that doesn’t imply you are limited in any meaningful way. It simply highlights that you cannot be naïve.
Reaching higher in life
Reaching higher in life is a process of connecting with a higher truth about who you are, which means becoming more like God, meaning being able to express the abilities of thinking, communicating, creating, feeling, knowing, and remembering in a more intelligent or conscious way.
Getting there requires that you let go of lower-vibrating truths, so-called lies or distortions, by outgrowing them.
The best and most effective way to outgrow your less-than-God-conscious tendencies, your deadly sins, is to become aware of the situations in which you are greedy, proud, slothful, wrathful, envious, or gluttonous.
On this path, don’t become:
Too greedy in your efforts to progress.
Too proud to realize that you aren’t perfect despite your profound realizations.
Too slothful to sometimes take actions that lead to temporary yet necessary setbacks or delays on your path to paradise.
Too wrathful when your cosmic truth triggers others.
Too envious of those who seem to gain success despite avoiding their inner work.
Too gluttonous, which, in this context, points to the tendency to be too hard on yourself and too kind to others, which leads to imbalance that makes it hard to fulfill your true potential.
