Initiation

Before reading this section, it would be helpful to have a basic understanding of the concepts discussed in the following sections:

Dimensional Shift of Earth
Soul and Oversoul Structures


The Purpose of Initiation

In order for a newly created oversoul unit to learn through experience, it projects its related soul unit into embodiment. Such an embodiment is a composite structure, consisting of an etheric, astral, and physical component. At the completion of each embodiment, the accumulated experience is stored within the structure of the oversoul and soul units.

After a long period of such learning experiences, it is normal for a unit of consciousness to evolve to the next stage of development. This involved a shift in frequency of the oversoul unit, such that it thereafter resides within the next higher realm within the 11-dimensional of existence. The process through which this frequency shift takes place is known as "initiation" .

Perhaps an analogy would be helpful. Within our school systems, students are graduated from one grade-level to the next higher grade- level after a period of achievement in the learning process. Initiation could be likened to the process of graduating from one level to the next higher level. In this sense, initiation is a mark of achievement in the learning process.

To carry the analogy a bit further, our school systems are generally organized into 3 structural levels: elementary schools, high schools, and universities. In like manner, the initiatory process involves 3 primary structural levels:

  • Solar Initiations are those initiations which relate to evolutionary progress within our solar system.

  • Galactic Initiations are initiations which relate to evolutionary progress beyond our solar system, but within our galaxy.

  • Universal Initiations are initiations which relate to evolutionary development beyond the galactic level, but within our Universe.

Before we can proceed further with our discussion the initiatory process, it is first necessary to consider the consciousness of Earth, and how it is structured.

The Consciousness of Earth

There are two primary realms of Earth within which consciousness exists:

Mental Realm

The mental realm of Earth currently resides within the 5th dimension. However, it is phase-displaced from the Etheric realm, and thus exists in a parallel reality in relation to the Etheric realm. There are two levels within the Mental realm:

Higher Mental Realm: This exists within the 7th harmonic of the 5th dimension.

Lower Mental Realm: This exists within the 3rd harmonic of the 5th dimension.

Emotional Realm

The Emotional realm of Earth currently resides within the 4th dimension. Like the Mental realm, there are two levels within the Emotional realm:

Higher Emotional Realm: This exists within the 7th harmonic of the 4th dimension.

Lower Emotional Realm: This exists within the 3rd harmonic of the 4th dimension.

Solar Initiations

Solar initiations will be discussed from the perspective of evolutionary progress on Earth. However, the same concepts apply to any other planet within our solar system.

First Initiation:

When a new unit of consciousness is created, the oversoul exist within the Lower Emotional realm. The First Initiation transfers an oversoul from the Lower Emotional realm of Earth to the Higher Emotional realm.

Second Initiation:

After another extended period of learning through incarnational experiences, an oversoul eventually reaches the point at which it is ready for the Second Initiation. This initiation transfers the oversoul to the Lower Mental realm of Earth.

Third Initiation:

Before the Third initiation can be undertaken, it is first necessary for an oversoul to undergo transmutation to the Oversoul-3 structure. This is discussed in the section entitled, "Soul and Oversoul Structures". Eventually, after an additional period of learning and development through incarnational experience, such an oversoul is ready to undergo the Third Initiation. This shifts the oversoul to the Higher Mental realm.

Fourth Initiation:

Before the Fourth initiation can be undertaken, it is necessary for an oversoul to undergo transmutation to the Oversoul-11 structure, as discussed in the section entitled, "Soul and Oversoul Structures". Then, after a further period of learning through incarnational experience, an oversoul is eventually ready to undergo the Fourth Initiation.

At this point, it may appear that we have a problem, because the structure of Earth does not exist above the Higher Mental realm, which is within the 7th harmonic of the 5th dimension. However, our Sun has a structure similar to Earth, except that it exists within the 5th, 6th and 7th dimensions. So when an oversoul of Earth undergoes the Fourth Initiation, the oversoul is shifted from the Higher Mental realm of Earth, to the Emotional realm of the Sun, which exists within the 6th dimension.

After this initiation, incarnations can be extended to other planets within our Solar System.

Fifth Initiation:

Eventually such an evolving oversoul is ready to undergo the Fifth Initiation. This initiation shifts the oversoul to the Mental Realm of the Sun, which currently resides within the 7th dimension.

The Fifth initiation also normally involves the ascension of the physical body, which is equivalent to "graduation" from our Solar System. However, there is an option after the Fifth Initiation for an oversoul to remain within our Solar System for "post-graduate" experiences, and to eventually complete a Sixth and Seventh Solar initiation.

Galactic Initiations

There is some degree of overlap between Solar, Galactic, and Universal initiations. In this regard, the Fifth Solar initiation is equivalent to the First Galactic initiation. The Sixth Solar initiation, if it is undertaken, is like an intermediary step beyond the First Galactic initiation. And the Seventh Solar initiation is equivalent to the Second Galactic Initiation.

We indicated previously that the Fifth Solar initiation shifts an oversoul to the Mental Realm of our Sun, which resides within the 7th dimension. Since the 7th dimension is the highest dimension within which our solar system exists, further initiatory steps necessarily involve other celestial systems within our galaxy.

Following is a listing of the Galactic initiations, indicating the dimensional level to which an oversoul is shifted via each initiatory step.

First Initiation: As previously indicated, this shifts the oversoul to the 7th harmonic of the 7th dimension.

Second Initiation: Before this initiation can be undertaken, it is first necessary for the oversoul to undergo transmutation to a star-cluster oversoul arrangement. This process is described in the section entitled, "Soul and Oversoul Structures". The Second Galactic initiation shifts the oversoul to the 3rd harmonic of the 8th dimension.

Third Initiation: The Third initiation shifts the oversoul to the 7th harmonic of the 8th dimension.

Fourth Initiation: This shifts the oversoul to the 3rd harmonic of the 9th dimension.

Fifth Initiation: Before this initiation can be undertaken, it is first necessary for the oversoul to undergo transmutation to a dodecahedral-cluster oversoul arrangement. Again, this process is described in the section entitled, "Soul and Oversoul Structures". The Fifth Galactic initiation shifts the oversoul to the 7th harmonic of the 9th dimension.

Universal Initiations

Following is a listing of the Universal initiations, indicating the dimensional level to which an oversoul is shifted via each initiatory step.

First Initiation: The First Universal initiation is equivalent to the Fifth Galactic initiation. As previously indicated, this shifts the oversoul to the 7th harmonic of the 9th dimension.

Second Initiation: This shifts the oversoul to the 3rd harmonic of the 10th dimension.

Third Initiation: The Third initiation shifts the oversoul to the 7th harmonic of the 10th dimension.

Fourth Initiation: This shifts the oversoul to the 3rd harmonic of the 11th dimension.

Fifth Initiation: Finally, the Fifth Galactic initiation shifts the oversoul to the 7th harmonic of the 11th dimension.

As with all evolutionary patterns, some sort of initiatory progression undoubtedly continues beyond the level of Universal initiations. However, we will not attempt to address those possibilities in this section.
