AS ABOVE SO BELOW

Mortality Mechanics' Manual“The Secret of The Thrice-Greatest Hermes (the three parts of the wisdom — alchemy, astrology, and theurgy — is a text purporting to reveal the secret of the primordial No-Thing and its diverse transmutations, passed down to humankind through an entity described as a combination of the Greek messenger of the gods, Hermes, and the Egyptian god Thoth, who guided souls to the afterlife.)

It was revealed in a letter written by the Greek philosopher and teacher, Aristotle to his student, Alexander the Great, who perceived himself as god-like, and yet remained mortal.  Aristotle, hoping to pass his own investigation into the Mystery of Mysteries to his student, related this story of his adventures:

“Here is that which the priest Sagijus of Nabulus has dictated concerning the entrance
 of Balinas into the hidden chamber…  After my entrance into the chamber I came up to an old man sitting on a golden throne.  He was holding an emerald tablet in one hand.

And behold the following, engraved in Cyriac, the primordial language of Cyrus The Great, was written thereon:  It contains an accurate commentary that cannot be doubted.  It states:

“What is the above is from the below and the below is from the above. The work of Wonders is from The One.”

— from the book MORTALITY MECHANICS MANUAL, by Lawrence R. Spencer

LIGHT SPEED ISN’T SO FAST

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

(  THIS IS BLOG POST NUMBER 2,222 ON LAWRENCERSPENCER.COM !  )

In our terrestrial view of things, the speed of light seems incredibly fast. But as soon as you view it against the vast distances of the universe, it’s unfortunately very slow. This animation illustrates, in real time, the journey of a photon of light emitted from the surface of the sun and traveling across a portion of the solar system, from a human perspective.

However, if you travel at the SPEED OF THOUGHT you can cross the void of space in an INSTANT!  For example:  get the idea very clearly in your mind that you are ON the Moon and viola! you are there!!  There is no speed or  time or distance involved.  Obviously, your body is not on the moon with you.  But, we don’t THINK with our body.  We think with our minds, which is not our body, or brain.  It’s just YOU thinking…..

NESTLE: PRIVATE WATER PIRATE

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

(Visit website for the film “Bottled Life”  http://www.bottledlifefilm.com/index.php/home-en.html  )

A typical American uses 80 to 100 gallons of water a day, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The entire country consumes about 323 billion gallons per day of surface water and another 84.5 billion gallons of ground water.  Do you have any questions about why Criminal Corporations like Nestle want to PRIVATIZE water distribution?

Perhaps the most incredible number: at an average cost of $1.22 per gallon, consumers are spending 300 times the cost of tap water to drink bottled water.

In fact, that number could be even higher, writes Colas in a note to clients.

“The [bottled water] industry grossed a total of $11.8 billion on those 9.7 billion gallons in 2012, making bottled water about $1.22/gallon nationwide and 300x the cost of a gallon of tap water,” Colas says. “If we take into account the fact that almost 2/3 of all bottled water sales are single 16.9oz (500 mL) bottles, though, this cost is much, much higher: about $7.50 per gallon, according to the American Water Works Association. That’s almost 2,000x the cost of a gallon of tap water and twice the cost of a gallon of regular gasoline.”

Do the math:  323 billion gallons surface water PLUS 84.5 billions gallons of ground water EQUALS 407.5 billion gallons TIMES $1.22 per gallon EQUALS  $497.15 billion per day.  Now, multiply this number by 300 for the price of Nestle bottled water!

ANY QUESTIONS?

Get yourself educated about the subject of “Water Privatization” before NESTLE STEALS OUR WATER.    Here are a few excellent articles:
