Where Were You Before the Tree of Life? - Horus Centre

How in all this process of soul, and reincarnation, and rebirthing, and such, does ‘self’
actually manifest into matter? Peter Moon gives us an interesting perspective on this from one of
his books about Montauk where he traces the use of a mystical substance known as ‘Occultum’
from its earliest uses in the ancient mysteries, right up to its varied uses today.
“By tracing the spirit through physicality, we see that it emerges in the DNA and the RNA . . .
DNA and RNA are the bridge between consciousness and matter. Occultum, which is Latin for
‘hidden’, acts as a superconductor between matter and the life force. It is the gateway to
influencing matter by enabling one, under the right circumstances, to consciously enter the atom.
“This is easy to understand if you can imagine an example of the blueprint room for the
physical universe. First, the draftsmen made the hydrogen atom with all its specific properties.
Next came the helium atom, and thus all the elements in the entire periodic table were filled out.
The blueprint room itself represents the creation zone at its highest level. It is also linked to zero
time in that this creation zone is outside third dimensional space and time. As the various atoms
began to interact in the third dimension, random activity occurred in a spontaneous fashion. Into
this mix, the life force began to permeate matter and carry out designated agendas with respect
to the various characteristics of life itself.”
Moon also expresses the now commonly accepted idea, expounded by L. Ron Hubbard
among others, that there is a trace memory in each cell, and that even atoms themselves have a
trace memory that tells their entire history. Therefore, memories of much of what is contained in
this book are probably within your cellular memory. This cellular memory can be activated if only
one knows how. Unfortunately, life as a whole is mired in physicality and in too many cases has
lost its physical memory and any conception of the continuity of self. Aboriginal peoples have life
through their ancestry, their history, and the wisdom it imparts to them. Even in the East,
ancestral traditions are still kept alive, at least symbolically, even when the original reason for the
traditions has long been forgotten. Very few of us in the West know the true reasons why we
celebrate certain holidays, why we have certain customs, and why we follow certain norms or
patterns in our lives. Ask any history teacher in any school in the West and invariably they will tell
you their students always complain and ask why they have to learn history since ‘it has nothing to
do with them and the lives they are living today.’ All together we have become a very uncurious
bunch of people.
The Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad says
“. . . the entire human race is but an aggregation of driven slaves from childhood to old age
while cares and anxieties multiply. They wait only for death, and this death is the doorway into the
kingdom of heaven. The human race is told by the priests and religious fanatics that death is the
mystery. But for the Eckist (the follower of Eckankar) there is no mystery in the phenomena of
death for he practices dying daily (through conscious soul-travel techniques)and visiting the
heavenly worlds. When the time comes for this phenomena to take place in the Pinda world
(physical world), it is found that he can leave the body under his own volition . . . He will be ready
to enter into the Kingdom of God, the Ocean of Love and Mercy.”
