This glossary contains explanations of terms that readers might find of use when reading the posts. Additional terms will be added when applicable.
Ancestral Earth Being: The Metaphysical Realm human being for Archaic Homo sapiens such as Homo heidelbergensis, Homo rhodesiensis, and Homo neanderthalensis (See Earth Being.)
Conscious: The capacity to be aware, particularly in reference to sentient beings.
Consciousness: The defining characteristic of the Spiritual Realm; it forms the foundation for the entire Universe, hence permeating all aspects of the Universe.
Core of Consciousness: The organizing principle of the Universe and its driving force; it is at the very bottom of the Spiritual Realm animating the Universe; it contains all possibilities; everything that has been and everything that might be in the future.
Death: Death in this context is an inner death instead of an outer physical death; it is a death in the sense of the Sufi dictum “die before you die.”
Down and In: The traditional direction for inner growth and transformation for Earth Beings under the aegis of God Down (i.e., the Great Spirit of Native Americans).
Early Earth Being: The Metaphysical Realm human being for Pre-Homo sapiens hominids such as Australopithecus (See Human Being).
Earth Being: The Metaphysical Realm human being for Homo sapiens sapiens that is associated with the Earth. Historically, Earth Beings have been under the auspices of God Down (i.e., the Great Spirit of Native Americans). Today, almost all First Peoples are Earth Beings (See Human Being).
Empty Void: The Empty Void is profoundly empty. Its emptiness is there to create the empty containers that form the Metaphysical and Physical Realms of “here.” There would be no Metaphysical Realm or Physical Realm without these empty containers created out of the Empty Void by the Core of Consciousness; there would be no Universe.
Full Void: The container in the Core of Consciousness that holds all possibilities; everything that has ever manifested or will ever manifest in the future. It is the container for everything. It is totally full. This makes practical sense for there has to be an origin for all possibilities. Otherwise, there could be no Universe, no human existence, nor a world where we might live.
Human Being: The Metaphysical Realm entity that truly makes each of us human. It is the template for how each of us fulfills our life in a physical body in the Physical Realm, consisting of a core and an operational arm. The core contains the life purpose of the human being and the driving force to implement it, while the operational arm manages the implementation. Present day human beings are all Stage 1 beings. They are Earth Beings, Soul-Based Earth Beings, and Light Beings (i.e., Souls), where Soul-Based Earth Beings and Light Beings are strictly Stage 1 phenomena. With each evolutionary stage after Stage 1, the human being, now always an Earth Being, becomes more integrated (See Planetary Field Theory Model for the generalized description of each stage).
Light Being: The Metaphysical Realm human being for Homo sapiens sapiens associated with the Light. Light Beings are Stage 1 beings who, with rare exceptions, are under the auspices of God Up, the God of modern religions. The Light Being is popularly known as a Soul (See Human Being).
Metaphysical Realm: The realm of fields; the “inner here.” Residing in this realm are the underlying templates that define the structures of the Physical Realm and the actions that take place in the Physical Realm. For humans, it is the realm where the human being resides, whether the Earth Being, Soul-Based Earth Being, or Light Being of today’s world.
Personal Shell: The Personal Shell ensures an individual is inner-directed, focusing on the requirements of the “who I am” of the human being with its life purpose and specific operational implementation; it is who an individual truly is, their “who I am;” the Personal Shell comes to the fore once the early childhood conditioning of the Personality Shell (See Personality Shell) shatters and is no longer a controlling factor; such an individual is said to be “destined.”
Personality Shell: The Personality Shell ensures an individual is outer-directed, focusing on activities in the Physical Realm dictated by society and the physical world around them; it is the result of early childhood conditioning of the first five years of life interacting with that individual’s human being and type of physical body based on the body’s DNA; such an individual is said to be “fated.”
Physical Being: A being that exists in the Physical Realm consisting of: 1) the physical body with the individual’s specific DNA, 2) the human being that interfaces with this physical body, and 3) the personality shell resulting from early childhood conditioning.
Physical Realm: The realm of physical space and matter; the “outer here.” This is the realm where physical implementations occur.
Physical Universe: Please see Physical Realm.
Planetary Earth Being: The spiritual being that manifests the Source in human form for Stages 2 – 5; its structure becomes more highly integrated with each succeeding evolutionary stage of humanity.
Planetary Field Theory Model: The five-stage model that describes the evolution of all systems on a planet, both physical systems and sentient being systems. For example, for the Earth, the model describes the evolution of physical systems, such as climatic, geologic, and biologic, as well as human evolution at the individual, organizational, and societal levels.
Results-Driven Process Loops: Process loops where the result is defined and the individual elements in the process loop dynamically adjust to attain the predefined result.
Soul: Please see Light Being.
Soul-Based Earth Being: The Stage 1 Metaphysical Realm transitional human being for Homo sapiens sapiens that facilitated the transition from the “Down and In” orientation of the Earth Being to the “Up and Out” orientation of the Light Being (i.e., Soul) that started some 20,000 years ago. Initially, Soul-Based Earth Beings were under the auspices of the Guru but, eventually, most came under the auspices of God Up once the Soul predominated and the Earth Being was blocked (See Human Being).
Source: The Source manages for the Core of Consciousness the planetary evolution of every planet in the Universe once the planet is formed; the Planetary Field Theory Model specifies the five stages of planetary evolution. (See Planetary Field Theory Model)
Spiritual Being: A being that exists in the Spiritual Realm; in this context, spiritual beings refer to: 1) a spiritual being that can merge into a specially prepared human being, or 2) a human who can become a spiritual being in the Spiritual Realm after leaving his or her human being.
Spiritual Realm: The realm of Consciousness; it is “not here,” both beyond, and outside, space and time; it is the realm of the universal plans and the ideas behind them that animate the “here” of the Universe, whether the “outer here” of the Physical Realm or the “inner here” of the Metaphysical Realm.
Stage: One of the five stages of the Planetary Field Theory Model (See Planetary Field Theory Model).
State: The inner organization of an individual that enables it to fulfill a particular purpose.
System: It is defined as a group of interacting, interrelated, or interdependent elements forming a complex whole.
Universal Earth Being: The spiritual being that is the Core of Consciousness in human form; its structure is the same as the structure of the Core of Consciousness; an individual who has attained the Universal Earth Being is no longer part of humanity, being responsible to the Core of Consciousness and the Universe as a whole.
Universal Field Theory Model: The model that describes the evolution of the Universe; it forms a boundary layer at the level of the Full Void (See Full Void) to do this.
Universal System: The integrated system of the Spiritual, Metaphysical, and Physical Realms that evolves the Universe.
Universe: The Universe in this context includes all “here,” both the “outer here” of the Physical Realm’s physical universe and the “inner here” of the Metaphysical Realm’s template fields that dictate the evolution of the physical universe.
Up and Out: The traditional direction for inner growth and transformation for Light Beings (i.e., Souls) and Soul-based Earth Beings under the aegis of God Up (i.e., the God of modern religions) or the Guru.
