Occulted Masks

[OmegaBjorn]

Ok. So. Let's try this again. I had a thought recently. What if all the deities, demons, angels, etc. are actually just spiritual/energetic manifestations of the deiform self in the same way that we are the corporeal manifestations? in other words occulted masks that one can don for a particular reason or occasion. I use the term "occulted" because they seem to remain hidden until triggered. The triggers seem to vary from epiphanies to trauma. Sometimes one may trigger for seemingly no discernable reason. My hope with this thread to start a discussion on this subject in an attempt to unravel this mystery. Maybe if we are lucky, we can hack these triggers and reveal them all.

Very interesting post. What would be some practical examples of how this deiform self could express itself?

[OmegaBjorn]

It expresses itself constantly in simple ways like existing as you me and others and doing whatever it is we do regardless of how great or mundane the action or inaction may be. Should the need arise the deiform-self may manifest itself as a God or Goddess or whatever is needed to fit the scenario so the we the corpus can learn before we return. In theory egocentricity may even be a response to warranted complacency on behalf of this form of the self.

That’s interesting this idea is very prevalent in my practice but I haven’t been able to articulate it to myself until reading your words. In my practice also there is a universal mask called baku that is put on to embody any of the other ones as needed also is put on to see only what is needed to perform the tasks at hand in higher realms so you aren’t having your mind blown too much while trying to heal someone or get certain spiritual sustenance.

Many KABALLA books states simmilar things.

In simple words

When you have a specific task to do or a magical working to basically take from the astral the 'mask' how would you call it of the specific God or Deity in the practice that you do, be it study or working. After you're done, to return it.

My opinion is that people can 'take' certain attributes from the Gods for their own development. However, from first hand experience they are as real as we are. Now, if they have a physical body as well since we have not see them in flesh and bone, we can't know. But the same way we can astral project and have a spirited form, so they could live in multidimensional spheres.

There where other hypotheses that those shapes/masks are some sort of what is left after the titans were defeated in war and they do not have a body anymore. I don't know, we certainty do not understand other dimensions and reality as it is so I really don't know... it takes a long way to understand even the recent history of our times not to mentioned what happened here such a long time. Or the universe at large.

However, it is interesting what you stated and if you have some references or future input about this all, I would appreciate to have a more in depth look at it, for my own knowledge and understanding. Thank you

Definitely something to reflect on.

Interesting. I had a similar thought as far as the "people can 'take' certain attributes from the Gods for their own development" comment you made goes. I'm honestly a bit up in the air between the two as i also have had my own experiences with various beings. As for the comment about the Kabbalah, I was not aware that was the case which makes "my" theory all the more interesting to me so thank you for that. Now if y'all will excuse me I need to find a needle to lance my ego with and have more to contemplate for now.

Sure. I'll be waiting for you. Take your time.

I do wanna make one thing clear. I'm not really a reader so my sources are for the most part either epiphanies or revelations via meditation. That's actually how my entire path has gone.

That's even more interesting.
I personally combine.
Thanks for telling us.
