INTRODUCTION TO CHRIST INITIATIONS
The Spiritual Life of Jesus
The mysterious thing about the historical life of Jesus is, besides his birth, very little is known about his earlier life up until he begins his ministry. There are books written from the Nag Hammadi papyrus found in the desert which refer to Joseph and Mary being members of the Essene Brotherhood and that Jesus received spiritual training from the Brotherhood in his early years growing up.
The point here is it’s very likely Jesus was immersed in spiritual knowledge and training in preparation for his life as the Messiah. That he had an attraction to spiritual knowledge seems obvious considering the fact Jesus was a highly evolved soul who was doing everything he could to fulfill his destiny of being spiritually knowledgeable and mentally prepared to walk into the waters with John the Baptist, be baptized, and become the Son of God with the Christ Spirit descending upon Him.
After this divine transformation, He fasted in the desert for 40 days, He resisted Satan’s temptations, and from that point on, He demonstrated His godlike abilities, performing miracles throughout His life. In the final act of His life, He died, He was resurrected, and He ascended; something no human has ever done. He also left us with some mysterious sayings like, “These things I do, so shall you do also and greater than these.”
Now, two thousand years later, our knowledge of the world, both seen and unseen, has vastly expanded to the point of overwhelming the mind from differing perceptions and differing realities; both real and AI. For the sake of our own spiritual redemption, we need a singular focus on the straight and narrow path as well as an understanding of the roots from which sprang the teachings of the Way of Life Jesus taught.
Christian Spiritual Initiations
The primordial root from which ALL bodies emerge is the archetypal male/female Adamic body God created in the beginning. At the root, we are all identical copies of this primordial body which “fell” from the etheric realm into the world of physical matter. When an individual soul merges and expresses itself through the physical body, the body changes in appearance based on the configuration of the souls life experiences, this includes: its thoughts, its temperament, its moral character and various archetypal influences.
“We are all copies of the primordial, archetypal Adamic body.”
The Christian spiritual teachings, originate from the spiritual anatomy of the archetypal Adamic body; this was the same body Jesus Christ resurrected which absolved humanity of its collective sins, its ancestral past, and opened the door to the spiritual, divine life for those who would receive it.
Being created in the image and likeness of the primordial Adamic body, we have within our divine spirit the same potential as Christ to resurrect our bodily/psycho-cognitive nature from the stranglehold of the worldly illusions in which we live. Furthermore, once we have accomplished this personal “resurrection”, we have the spiritual potential and internal knowledge within ourselves to ascend into the Presence of our Father - who is One with our spiritual Self.
The four stages of Christ Meditations are modeled after the unique life experiences of Jesus Christ based the male/female Adamic body and its psychic, mental and spiritual natures and the godly potential it has within. These spiritual realities are revealed to us in the symbolism: of the baptism of Jesus, in the temptations, in raising the dead, in healing, in dying and being reborn, in the resurrection, and in the ascension. These are spiritual states of personal transformation which exist for all human beings who consciously transition through these stages.
Jesus Christ demonstrated and actualized the spiritual potentials of the Adamic body in His life. Through the Christ Meditations, one can experience the equivalent spiritual “initiations” or transformations Christ revealed to us. In this circumstance, the term initiation simply means being introduced to and entering into a new and different state of conscious realization.
The equivalent transformative initiations for the dedicated disciple occur in a progressive sequence, they are as follows: In order to be baptized in the “waters of life,” one’s inner self must desire union with Christ and “push back” against the animal forces of one’s body (primal urges, instincts, hunger, base desires) with focused intent so as to dominate, transform and purify these primal energies; and rise above them as explained in Stage 1.
Through this process, one can consciously realize the distinction between the lower primal energies of the body and the “waters” of the lower psychic. In Stage 2, it is in the waters of our lower psychic nature that we awaken our unconscious dark desires and unstable emotions which comprise our personal unconscious – this is “raising the dead,” i.e., making our unconscious self conscious in order to heal our fragmented psyche making it whole.
The next step in Stage 2 is to recognize, identify, and transform these errant desires, dark impulses, misconceptions and various temptations in the shadow-self; knowledge of the shadow-self comes from Analytical Psychology and the writings of Carl Jung. This purging of the unconscious includes recognizing the dark, deceptive voice of the chattering-mind as the lower impulses and misdirection of the shadow-self which leads us astray; this is our equivalent experience of Christ’s temptations in the desert by Satan.
Satan and the serpent of Eden represent the horizontal electrical energies of the world: the electrical impulses in the body’s nervous system as well as the currents which power cell phones, computers, servers and A.I. “Raising the serpent in the desert,” as Moses did, refers to transforming the horizontal electrical currents of the world into the vertical spiritual light-energy of Christ and the heavenly realms. This is exactly what happens in this meditation system.

Continuing along this path to become whole, we must purify the dark, contaminated waters of the lower psychic as well as heal the undeveloped and immature emotions explained in Stage 2. This transformative process purifies, heals, and rejuvenates the psychic soul/being so it is “transparent” enough for consciousness to awaken or “rise” above the diaphragm into the higher psychic energies; this is where the work of Stage 3 begins. Stage 3 involves recognizing and embracing our spiritual virtues and transforming any remaining impurities so we are prepared to enter into the clear light, life and love of the Sacred Heart; the completion of Stage 3 is equivalent to resurrection of the purified body into the “Kingdom of Heaven.” This is followed by the ascension of the “arisen Christ Light” from the Sacred Heart into the spiritual center of the brain where one can know the Divine Presence of our heavenly Father in Stage 4. This is the point of oneness Jesus referred to when He said, “I and my Father are one.” This is also the point of emanation of Jesus’ halo.
FREQUENCIES IN MEDITATION
Within the 4-fold body and the Triune Self (the Knower, Thinker & Doer) one can perceive the exact same spiritual path embedded in the matrix of the archetypal Adamic body, waiting for the dedicated disciple to awaken it. The only variables on the path are that each person’s life experiences are uniquely different, thus their shadow-self is different. There are also differences in each person’s temperaments, astrological influences, character attributes and personal flaws. We humans are like snowflakes; we are all the same but different!
Jesus Christ communicated this reality to us by what He did in His newly transfigured and spiritualized body. This is what spiritual transformation and transcendence are about; anyone who is capable of following this same path will have the same outcome because we are all copies of the archetypal Adamic body God created in the beginning. The archetypal-states of the animal nature-body, the psycho-cognitive nature, and the spiritual nature of my higher-self are identical to yours and these composite bodies we occupy are “immersed” and fused into our individual souls which will know life eternal.
Our basic human makeup is identical to Jesus before He was baptized and the Christ Spirit descended upon Him. We have the same spiritual potential within; this is why he said “These things I do so shall you do also and greater than these.” And again he said, “If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” (John 8:31-2) For me, this is what Jesus Christ was referring to as the Way of Life.
“What Jesus Christ did in His newly spiritualized body was how He communicated
the Way of Life to us; and the Beatitudes are our spiritual guidelines.” (Matt5:1-12)
Final Words
The Christ meditation system presented on this site differs from all other meditation systems in that we simply strive to awaken the fullness of our Christian potential to love and to be: consciously still and clear in the Light, Love, and Spirit of Christ and to keep this inner holiness ever-present within so we feel love for God and for others. As Christians, it is our personal goal to be clear within so we can know the Light and Spirit in our body, heart, mind and soul as well as experience oneness with God’s Divine Presence in the present moment.
Jesus Christ is our spiritual ideal to which we aspire; spiritual Christianity has more in common with the plain and sincere faith of simple people than with abstract metaphysics. The human ideal of practical Christianity is not the superman of Nietzsche, nor the superman of India plunged into contemplation of eternity, nor the superman-hierophant of Gurdjieff, nor the superman-philosopher of the Stoic and Vedantic philosophies.
No, it’s the human ideal – the real individual who is human to such a degree that he or she contains and bears within oneself all that which is human and divine; that they may be the “guardian” of the throne of David. King David was the human ideal of his time. This is why he was anointed by divine order by the prophet Samuel; and for this reason the Eternal gave him the solemn promise that his throne would be established forever. The throne, the post of the representative of humanity, will therefore never perish.
Therefore, it is the first duty for each of us to seek the Light and become Christ-like humans so we can achieve clarity and openness by resolving and transforming our personal weaknesses, fears, lower desires, unstable emotions, and psychological pain. In this purified and renewed state we can know stillness, peace and courage in our service to God and to one another. Meditation is the way to clear our psycho-cognitive nature so we can be in communion with the Holy Trinity in the present moment, to: heal our self, free our self, love our self and let our light shine in our service to Christ and humanity!
The Holy Trinity has led me through 5+ decades of spiritual experience, research and meditation experience to discover this path of Light and the 4-stage system of meditation; and given me the time and ability to write about it. Everything explained in the four stages of meditation has been confirmed from my (and others) personal spiritual experiences. I freely share this knowledge, for your personal and private use, so those who are sufficiently inspired and self-disciplined enough can have their own personal spiritual awakening in months rather than in decades. In truth, the spiritual path requires self-discipline and perseverance to accomplish, like rolling a boulder up a mountain to the top.
Worshipping and praising God has its reward. However, actually following the Way of Life, to transform and to heal oneself within, based on the principles of Christ’s teachings, has a much greater reward. “Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” Consequently, if we are to follow Him like He said, we have to work for it; meaning, we will experience a personalized version of the transforming and transcendent experiences Jesus had, only within our own body and consciousness. Do your part and the Holy Spirit will lead you to the Sacred Heart and the Light within.
Activating the Path Within
The first thing to be accomplished before beginning meditation is subduing the chattering-mind and learning how to breathe! The uncontrolled chattering of the mind is a “fixed barrier” which prevents the uninitiated from reaching the pure light of Christ. It is the first “dweller on the threshold” which prevents the curious and uncommitted seekers from entering into the holy silence. Those who are serious about discovering their spiritual nature are free to enter the Way of Life when they can keep their mind focused, still and peaceful. It is within the stillness that the seeker is filled with inspiration and hunger for spiritual knowledge by the Holy Spirit.
The following exercise explains a “shortcut” for the person who desires to follow the most direct path up the mountain. As stated above, the Christian initiations, as well as other miraculous powers Jesus demonstrated, are secretly embedded within our Adamic body. The four stages of meditation are written in a clear and simple fashion so one can read each meditation stage (in order) to begin awakening and activating these initiatory experiences; this is a reading meditation. It’s a very simple procedure to follow.
Before starting this exercise, relax, close your eyes and take several deep, long, and smooth breaths to disengage from the world and to get centered within. For the dedicated disciple, learn about focused connected-breathing, here. When relaxed breathing is achieved, patiently and calmly begin to read Stage 1 meditation (maintain the relaxed breathing) and don’t worry about understanding everything, just read and feel what you feel within. To get the maximum benefit out of this, try to finish a stage in one sitting; or, at least, finish the Philosophy and Knowledge and later read the meditation instruction; do whatever works for you, but be consistent and be disciplined enough to finish what you’ve started.
When Stage 1 is completed, do the same process with Stage 2, and so on. This is what will happen if these instructions are followed: you will experience an awakening in the part of the body that you are reading about because you are consciously touching the initiatory path, the Way of Life which lies dormant within. Even though you may not consciously understand what you read, it is in your unconscious mind and it will begin to percolate. You will experience a notable benefit to your life if you can accomplish this and nothing else. If you do begin the stages of meditation, it will feel like familiar territory and your progress will be swift.
Even though we are not on the same spiritual level as Jesus, we humans were pre-eternally destined to experience Christ consciousness; and God did send His son to tell us the Kingdom of Heaven is within each one of us and Eternal life awaits us when we leave this world. Belief in Jesus Christ gets one a “general admission ticket” into heaven. Those who hunger and thirst for spiritual knowledge and actually follow the Way of Life into higher consciousness will get “front row seats” because we have demonstrated our love for our Father in Heaven and walked the walk. As Jesus said, “These things I do so shall you do also and greater than these.” So, just do it!
The Beautiful Mountain
One bright day you perceive the silhouette of a beautiful mountain.
You enjoy exploring crag and ridge, listening to its silver-spraying fountain.
Suddenly, a sun ray touches the wick of its heart, and your mind begins to quake,
For in the light of truth, you see the mountain is you, and its soul is awake.
Then, softly as a whisper in the wind, its small flame expands with many a sigh,
Its aura reaching to the highest peak, becoming one with the summit’s eye,
Which opens to show you many new ways in which your spirit may fly,
To reach the base of yet a higher mountain, floating even higher in the sky.
There, though you will climb through many clouds, where only light has gone before,
You will travel beyond the shadow of doubt, to find the handle of an ancient door,
Which will open by your hand into the land, where the stream of your prayer pours,
As you become the servant of glory, reflecting the sun forevermore;
Until one day another will perceive the bright silhouette of your beautiful mountain,
And together you will walk upon its crag and ridge, adoring its holy fountain.
