The Revelation
Chapter Two

Church: Smyrna
Virtue:   Suffering
Faults:   Insincerity
Seal:      2
Vision:    Black Horse
Spiritual Gland: Lyden
Lord’s Prayer:   Temptation

Symbology

Angel of Ephesus:  Mind cell or intelligence governing gonads.

He with Seven Stars:  Overself or superconscious

First Love:  Spiritual ideal – purpose

Nicolaitans – Cells in this centre (in this case, the gonads) that have degenerated through misuse and lascivious practices.

Tree of Life:  The function of supply, healing and growth, the power of regeneration as manifested through the endocrine system perfectly synchronized.

Paradise of God:  The Original consciousness of man, before he came into matter, and to which he will return.


Interpretation

In verse 1, Chapter 2, the Overself is speaking, pointing out to John the need for a cleansing and purifying of the forces of the gonads.

V2.  The Overself is aware of the efforts of the intelligence found here to regulate and guard itself against destructive activities and pursuits, but says that the original purpose of this centre has been lost.  The mind cell is urged to bring about a return to the original purpose quickly, or lose its intelligence entirely. (This would mean degeneration to the point of animalistic function of this center, instinctual but without intelligence).

V7.  In this verse the Overself gives a clue to the great riddle of the Tree of Life referred to in the Book of Genesis, a riddle of the ages in the western world.  John is told that anyone who can regain control of this centre could bring about within his body and mind, as well as in his worldly circumstances, complete restoration of the law of healing and supply.

Symbology

Angel of Smyrna:  Mind cell or intelligence governing cells of Leydig or Lyden gland.

First and Last:  Overself, or superconscious
Jews:  Cells chosen for special development.

Synagogue of Satan:  Unregenerate cells.

Tribulation 10 days:  Period of purification.

Crown of Life:  Symbol of state of perfect control

Second Death: Regression from partial regeneration, a relapse.

Spirit:  Overself is speaking here.

Interpretation

V8.  The Overself instructs John to see that the ‘intelligence’ in charge of the cells of Leydig or Lyden is reassured, so to speak, for the sense of inadequate creativity in their function, that their possibilities are infinite once the ‘unregenerate’ cells which thwart and limit the activity of this centre, are eliminated through a period of purification.

V10. If the forces of this centre will be faithful to the discipline imposed upon it, complete control will be restored to the ‘intelligence’ in charge.

NB:  the cells of Leydig seem to be the center of what, on the mental level, is called ‘imagination’.  That is to say, the forces at this point.  In a mental sense again, purpose or ideals would be generated here in conjunction with the pituitary.

V11.  The cryptogram here seems to say that the individual who gains control of this center will not be liable to regression from partial regeneration.

Church:  Pergamos
Virtue: Faithful
Faults:  Stumbling block
Seal: 3
Vision: Red Horse
Spiritual gland:  Adrenal Solar-Plexus
Lord’s Prayer:  Debts

Symbology

Angel of Pergamos:  Mind cell or intelligence governing adrenals.

He with sharp sword:  Overself, superconscious.

Antipas:  Martyred bishop, state of loss of control of adrenal functions.

Doctrine of Balaam:  Corruption of cells, chosen for special development, through misuse and lascivious impulses.

Hidden Manna:  The impact of the Spirit upon the endocrine system which releases its secretions into the blood stream, creating energy.

White Stone:  A point of higher development, a new stage of consciousness.

A new name written:  A new sense of identification in the part for its relationship to the whole – ‘responsibility’.

Footnote:  New name is also the means by which the spiritual impact can be repeated at will.

Interpretation

V12.  The Overself now addresses Himself to the mind cell, or ‘intelligence’ of the adrenal centre, through John.  This center is commended for its adherence to its basic purpose even during periods when control of adrenal functions has sometimes been lost.

V13.  The adrenal intelligence is warned, however, against the misuse of its energies owing to the presence of unregenerate cells here implying the need for purification on this level also.

V16.  The two edged sword symbolizes the power rising from the centers, which either blesses or curses, according to the will.  Thus, the Overself promises prompt ‘surgery’ for the cells which resist discipline on this level.

V17.  Now the Overself states that as a result of perfect restoration of self control of the seven centers, the individual can renew and regenerate himself at will as the Master did, by apparently releasing hormones from the adrenal into the blood stream directly, as a result of the impact of the Spirit upon the endocrine system.  Moreover, in the resulting higher state of consciousness, the individual in knowledge of his relationship with the higher forces can effect contact with them at any time.


Church:  Thatira
Virtue: Charity
Fault:  Fornication
Seal: 4
Vision: Pale Horse
Gland: Thymus
Lord’s Prayer:  Evil

Symbology

Angel of Thyatira :  Mind cell or intelligence governing thymus.

Son of God:  Overself, superconscious mind

Jezebel:  Symbol of misdirection of creative forces.

Reins:  Controls

Heart:  Motivation

Satan:  Unregenerate mind

Power over the Nations:  Control of all bodily parts and functions.

Morning Star:  Original state of illumination or intelligence.

Interpretation

The Overself is speaking to the intelligence or mind cell of the thymus center.

V19.  He commends its functions to date even though it is under a condition of limitation and promises that fulfillment will ultimately come about in abundance.

V20,23.  Now he urges purification against the persistence of this center to misuse the divine forces for personal satisfaction.  Time has been given in which to bring this about.  However, if the faults are persisted in, only disintegration and decay can result.  This, in turn, would automatically bring unbalance to the other centers.  The Overself, being in charge, is examining constantly the controls and the motivations of each center.

V24,25.  The mind cell and those cells still free from misuse, however, will not be called on for any additional duties.  These are admonished to retain the ideals of their perfect pattern.

V26.  To the man who remains true to the perfect pattern which is within each one of us, absolute control will be given him over all parts and all functions of the body.

V28.  Such a man would return to his first condition in consciousness complete master of his environment.

V29.  Meditate on these things.

Interpretation

V1.  John is speaking now and he tells us that at this point, a mental awkening occurs.  The Overself offers himself as a guide.

V2.  The Overself shows himself in point of control of the entire body-mind. (The stones and colors symbolizes attributes – like judgment, justice, mercy etc.)  Before the control point of the superconscious mind are the lesser control points of the five senses – the 24 cranial nerves.  Also the intelligences of the seven centers of the endocrine system are shown as lamps.

V6.  The sea of glass before the throne symbolizes the stilled emotions, the condition which will allow the Overself to rule.  The beasts full of eyes before and behind represent the four lower centers full of awareness of self.  The attributes of these are:

1.      Self-gratification : Thymus
2.      Self-preservation : Adrenals
3.      Sustenance: Lyden
4.      Propagation of the species: Gonads

Hello AhSoLaoTsuAhhOmmra

I do believe Edgar Cayce's interpretation of The Revelation has every right to be on the main board of AfterLife Knowledge.  However, if Bruce feels it should be off-topic than so be it.

St John 12:36
While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light.  These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

The Revelation

6 -Earthquake-Pineal-      Name

5 -Souls of Faithful slain-Thyroid-Will

4 -Pale Horse-Thymus-Evil

3 -Red Horse-Adrenal-Debts

2 -Black Horse-Lyden-Temptation

1 -White Horse-Gonads-Bread


Symbology

Horse – Force through.
White Horse : Gonads
Black Horse : Lyden
Red Horse : Adrenals
Pale Horse: Thymus

Rider – Controlling intelligence.

Altar – Point of decision.

Souls of Slain – Latent powers.

Earthquake – Trembling of body.

Stars of Heaven – Mental ideals, present concepts.

Mountain – Material attainment.

Island – Limited ideas.

Kings of the Earth – Controlling intelligence of body.

Interpretation

V1.  John perceives the energies of the gonads as this center is opened by the forces of regeneration within his own body.  The intelligence of the gonads bids him ‘Come and see’.

V2.  When the next center is opened, the forces of the adrenal are released.  This is the main source of physical energy, which is capable of galvanizing the body into action, for constructive or destructive purposes.

V5.  When the regenerating will opens the Lyden center, the warning is given that for every spiritual gift there is a price and a penalty for the mis-use of each gift.

V7.  When the thymus is opened, the ravages of degeneration are shown through loss of consciousness and feelings of guilt as a result of self-gratification of the body.

V9.  The opening of the thyroid center discloses latent powers of the will, which have been immobilized through mis-use, and which will have to wait for the regeneration of the other cells which are in process of being refined.

V12.  The opening of the pineal center is accompanied by bodily trembling and loss of consciousness with the life essence centering only in the sub-conscious, with loss of mental impulses to the physical.

V14.  Old ideals are swept away together with all material attainments and limited concepts.  Even the directing and controlling intelligence of the body bury themselves in matter in an attempt to avoid correction by the forces of the Overself and the regenerating will.

The Revelation
Chapter Eight

Symbology

Seventh Seal – The pituitary

Seven Angels – 7 intelligences of endocrine system.

Trumpets – Impulses or vibrations which actually open centers.

Golden Censor – Pure Heart.

Incense – Good works. 
Note: These are as a result of right activity in the world.

Hail and Fire mixed with Blood – Purification through the sacrifice of ego.

Ships – Concepts deriving from emotional experiences.

Rivers and Fountains – Desires and urges from emotional level.

Worm Wood – Disillusionment with old ideals.

Sun, Moon, and Stars Darkened – Loss of consciousness in all the parts.

Interpretation

(Resumption after pause of opening 6 of the 7 centers)

V1.  Now the Overself opens the pituitary center, as a result of perfect control of the mind for half an hour.  John sees the entire endocrine system being restored to the rightful position of command by the Superconscious, or Overself.  Next, the accumulated experience for good, won by the soul in the earth appears as a force, or intelligence itself.  This mind force infuses the new material with the vitality of regeneration and injects it into the physical structure.  The body reacts spasmodically.

V6.  As a result of the activity of pituitary, the entire endocrine system is recharged.

V7.  When the gonads release their hormones into the blood stream (under these conditions) purification of the organs begins, through the crystallizing of the emotions and a burning out of a portion of the growths and developments of the purely physical.

V8.  Next, the adrenals follow the example of the gonads in turn, removing the conflicts caused by the warring of the spiritual forces against the physical desires, and cleaning out old patterns of energy.

V10.  The lyden in turn, brings about correction of the ideals, which creates disillusionment with former forms and concepts.

V11.  The thymus activity results in partial loss of consciousness.

V13.  More upheavals in the body are promised as a result of the activity of the three upper centers, not yet heard from.

Interpretation

V1.  The Overself is shown now in complete control of the body with all the endocrine centers open.  He is shown master of the entire emotional and physical nature at this point.

V3.  He demonstrates his command over the seven centers.

V4.  John is forbidden to record the knowledge revealed in this demonstration, since he is not yet ready for a complete understanding of his divine nature.

V6.  Time shall be no more – 4th dimensional consciousness?

V8.  John is now urged to take over the body from the control and custody of the Overself.

V9.  The Overself, or Superconscious, tells him that mere knowledge of his divine-physical nature may be sweet to contemplate, but it is digested and made part of him only through the bitter experiences in the world through personal application.

V10.  John then found this out through his own experience.

V11.  He is now told that he must apply that which he has learned to all peoples, in all conditions.

Crowned with 12 Stars – Perfect state.

Interpretation

(NB.  John is now given a picture of the soul of Man in its development since the beginning in a historical sense – showing the relationship of the conscious mind to the sub-conscious, and which came first).

V1.  ‘The great wonder’ is symbolic of the human soul, fully illumined and in control of consciousness, crowned with the twelve basic patterns of Man.  Her child is the active principle of mind, the ‘conscious mind’, as we call it.  None of this is as yet come into materiality.

V3.  Simultaneously, a parallel activity takes place.  With the coming of the conscious mind, the rival force of Self Will occurs, which brings about recurring periods of rebellion in Man.

V5.  however, through Divine intervention, the conscious mind is taken into ‘protective custody’ while the unconscious mind from which it has sprung, is withdrawn below the conscious level, where it continues to be supplied for a period.  (See Genesis 1,2,3 – ‘Fall of Man’)

V9.  The forces of rebellion are removed from the levels of mentality and now have their place in the body.

V10,11  It is now the duty of the human mind to control the rebellious urges coming from the physical as a result of experience in the world.

V13.  Rebellion from the physical next brings conflict into the soul (persecution) but the soul can remain above it by remaining concealed from the forces of Self-Will.

V15.  The emotions coming as a result of the struggles between the soul and self-will are absorbed by the body, but there remains ever the danger of continued attacks upon all established ideals.
