There are only two paths in this world: a path up and a path down. To live in this world as a human being is akin to living as a snake in a tube that flows in only two directions—up and down.
The upwards path leads us further into an expanded state of being. The flavours of this expanded state are unconditional love, peace, equanimity, purity, and truth.
The downwards path leads us further into a contracted state of being. The flavours of this contracted state are insecurity, misery, hatred, violence, and inner and outer fragmentation.
Over time, both of these paths have been formulated in the world by beings of both high and low frequencies. The path upwards, the white path, is opened up and made available by highly evolved, multidimensional beings who appear to us in the guise of ordinary human beings. They may promote methods like meditation, chanting, prayer, and selfless service, but the core of their method is always themselves—their own transformative presence that creates shifts in those who connect to them sincerely and consistently.
THE WHITE PATH
The white path is formulated around our conscience, the inner voice within each of us that guides us to do the right things in life. And ‘right’ in this case is not that which is merely judged as being right by any other apparently superior being. Rather, that which is right is simply that which expands us, and that which helps us to align ourselves with the very essence of this existence that unites all beings.
Therefore, a genuine master, teacher or ‘guru’ on the white path is a being who helps us to reconnect with our essence, and the inner voice, the inner teacher, that knows exactly what we must do in order to expand and evolve ourselves naturally through life.
The foundational principle of the white path is non-violence and absolute respect for the freewill of other beings. The most obvious application of this principle is in relation to killing. No being wants to be murdered at the hands of a violent oppressor. This includes animals. Therefore, the most basic practice of non-violence is not to murder and not to support the murder of any being. From here, the scope of what non-violence means become more subtle. For example, there is also mental, emotional, sexual, verbal, and energetic violence. All of these things involve directing some sort of negative, controlling, coercing energy at another being. These things all reinforce the perspective of separation, and ultimately, these things contract us. That is why they are not endorsed on the white path.
THE REVERSE PATH
Now, when we talk about a path that runs in the opposite direction to the white path, we literally talk about a path that reverses and desecrates all of the principles that are held so sacred by followers of the path of truth and love.
So, to give us an idea about what this black, left-hand, or satanic path really is, let us reverse everything that we have just spoken about. Instead of strengthening our connection with our conscience, the reversed path would have us sever our connection with our conscience entirely. Instead of expanding us, such a path would serve to contract us. Instead of seeing non-violence as the most sacred principle, such a path would see violence and total disrespect for the freewill of others as key to advancing and moving deeper into the rancid, suffocating darkness that the followers of such a path apparently prize. On such a path, whatever reinforces the perspective that all beings are separate, in competition, and ultimately, antagonistic to each other, is promoted.
Now, unfortunately, this path that we are talking about is not just a hypothetical theory or thought experiment. It is a reality. There are schools, cults, and secret societies that have developed concretes practices around everything that we have just summarised. This has been going on for a very, very long time. But why don’t we know about them? Let’s think about it.
One of the key doctrines of the white path is truthfulness, straightforwardness, and transparency. This means that we live in such a way where we always give an honest-as-possible account of ourselves, others, our world, and our experiences, to ourselves and others. In others words, we avoid deceiving ourselves and we avoid deceiving others at all costs. If we are aiming at some sort of ultimate truth, we must first master the ways of truthfulness on an ordinary level. If we are aiming at absolute wholeness in consciousness, then we first must keep ourselves whole by communicating things exactly as they are without distorting anything for our own apparent benefit. To lie means to separate reality into two: a true version and a fake version. To connect and, eventually, become the one reality, we must first live in just one reality in a conventional sense where we represent things exactly as they are.
So, what would it look like if we were to reverse this principle of truthfulness? Deception. Deception is one of the principle tenets of the reverse path. This fact is also supported by a few passages from the Bible that speak about Satan as the archetypal leader of the reverse path:
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. (John 8:44)
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (Revelation 12:9)
Thus it is so that totemic being of the reverse path is famed for his abilities as a deceiver. Therefore, let us again ask ourselves: Why do most of us not know about the containers of the reverse, black path—the secret societies, the satanic cults, the luciferian orders? It is because they are hidden. In fact, most of the people that follow such ways outwardly declare and present themselves as pious followers of one of the major world religions. This is their mask. When you think about it, it must be like this. Everything that such beings do must be deceptive in nature. There are two reasons for this. One is esoteric, and the other is exoteric.
The exoteric reason for the practice of deception is that is simply helps people gain an advantage on practical terms. For example, what is the most effective way to win a game? It is to cheat. So the deception of these satanists, on a practical level, is simply to gain an apparent advantage over people that tell the truth. However, of course, there is a consequence to cheating. It is dishonest, and dishonesty negatively impacts our connection with our conscience. And this brings us directly to the esoteric effect of deception, which is simply that: the destruction of the conscience.
HOW IT WORKS
So, when we talk about the works of the reverse path, or the ‘deeds of darkness’, so to speak, they will always appear to be something other than what they really are. A concrete example of this is the ritual genocide of Palestinians that is still occurring in Gaza as I write this article. The leaders of the Israeli state say that the main reason for the bombardment of Gaza is to destroy the terrorist organisation known as Hamas. However, for anyone who has looked into this situation with any degree of clarity, it is clear that Hamas is simply a scapegoat and an excuse for the Israelis to reclaim the land that they believe has been divinely promised to them. Without the forced Israeli occupation of Palestine, which has been a reality since 1967, there would be no such thing as Hamas. And to be clear, divinity has got nothing to do with murdering innocent, defenceless children. Divinity has got nothing to do with raping women. Divinity has got nothing to with blowing up hospitals and starving a whole nation to death. The Israeli state, in its militant mode, is one of the most egregious manifestations of the reverse path, the cult of death, on Earth at this time. For the perpetrators of the twenty-first century holocaust in Gaza, God is just a meaningless word. These are beings who worship death, hate, strife, and suffering. They live in darkness, and they have only darkness to await them.
So verily, the massacre in Gaza is an example of the reverse path in action. What are the rituals of the reverse path? Death. Murder. Rape. Sacrifice. Paedophilia. Incest. Everything that goes against life, against naturalness, and against love—this is what these beings worship as the most high. By committing these heinous acts, these spiritually retarded, spiritually misshapen and deformed beings, hope to invoke the presence of powerful demonic entities who will empower them, deliver knowledge to them, and make them immortal. They will do no such thing. They will merely devour them, because their cult is a cult of devourment, of utter decay, and agonising death. Beyond the fool’s gold of worldly power, pleasure, and wealth, for these beings there awaits only a spiritual autophagy, a spiritual-self-devourment, an immurement of the soul, and an endless self-imposed banishment from anything that resembles light, love, and joy.
In this brief article I have spoken about the path up and the path down. Which one sounds better to you? Live your life consciously. Connect to your conscience. Connect to beings that help you expand. Be wary of the many deceptive and dark roads in this world. From the outside, they may not look dark. All that glitters is not gold. Follow your heart. Let your own honest feelings guide you about what the right direction is to travel in.
Protect truth. Don’t turn away from injustice and darkness. See it. Learn from it. Use it as fuel to move forward on your own path. Use your voice to speak for the voiceless, the oppressed, and the dispossessed.
The truth protects those who protect it. This is important and refreshing to remember.
With love always,
Jack
