Introduction

Bankruptcy

If you are lucky, at some point in your life you'll come to a complete dead end of the soul - a psychic bankruptcy. You will arrive at a point in your life - a crossroads - where there is no way out. You will see that the path to the left leads to hell, that the path to the right leads to hell, that the road forward, and most definitely backward, leads straight to complete and utter hell.

And if you're not lucky?

If you're not lucky you will only face this crossroads when you die, and you won't have any choices at all.

Based on observation and research, it is apparent that humanity has now reached a great historical crossroads. We have come to the end of a two thousand year history of intolerance, cruelty and stupidity which has created our present state of global, collective madness. Humanity, as a collective whole, is arriving at a state of collective Spiritual Bankruptcy, or "death." And yet, we cannot assume that this is meaningless.

Those who understand the principles of electricity will comprehend when we say that this present global estate is the way nature works and is the establishing of sufficient Contact Potential Difference for the inflow of energy of Cosmic Light.

In order for this coming inflow of energy to act in positive ways, to create a new branch of reality of Free Will and Balance, there must be a point of contact that can conduct the energy. There must be human "micro-chips" or "circuits" sufficient to sustain this energy or all of humanity will perish. This means that only the development of human beings of a certain sort - with a certain "wiring," so to say - will result in the global capacity to confront the energies of the Crossroads.

As above, so below. It is the same with human beings. When that point is reached - that Dark Night of the Soul - there is a "choice" that becomes apparent: the soul is offered the way "up" or the way "down."

Have you ever felt that this life of the senses can never fulfill us, even though the whole world will tell us the opposite?

What if it never was meant to fulfill us?

When we experince those Naïve religious states, we come to a certain idea: that there IS more to life, that there IS an "invisible reality" that is behind or over all the visible life in our world.

What we cannot see with our eyes is usually more real than what is. We can experience this at every level of our existence. Even when we think we are finally where we want to be - with the person we love, with the things we have struggled for - something inside us continues to long for that which is over the horizon of the material world.

For some, what is missing from their lives is more powerful than what they have. Perhaps this is how you feel. The "lack" is too difficult to bear, so - in our desperation - we invent things to fill the inner void. They are all only temporary substitutes. The material world fills us with substitute after substitute, and we try to convince ourselves that we lack nothing. But nothing has the power to fill the hollowness we feel inside.

And so we keep modifying the definition of the source of our emptiness... so that we can keep searching, replacing the void with yet more things or ideas or experiences. The longing is what turns us inside out. And we begin to seek - to learn from the outside - and this is what ultimately can lead us to the answer of what is there in the darkness of the internal void.

The Quest

The ancient Tradition of the Quest does not understand man to be a fallen creature because of personal observations about humankind and the evil state of the world. The Tradition teaches that the intense study of history and science serves to convey to man in a very deep way the reality of a certain memory - the memory of the Lost Golden Age when man functioned at a higher level - what could be described as a "god" from our present state of diminution. History preserves in human beings a nostalgia for the higher aspects of man and for those divine qualities which he has lost. History and philosophy - love of knowledge - serve to awaken in man a sense of his higher potential.

In this Tradition, "Original sin" is nothing more or less than man's separation from his true and original nature. It is intimately tied to his awareness that he is somehow not what he should be. "Original sin" is the tragic sense of having lost something, not a state of being "innately sinful".

Self study and concentrated attention on objective reality serves to bring the human being to an awareness of his INNATE DIVINITY, of his HIGHER SELF. It serves to contrast what he is, in his fallen state, with what he should and CAN be. This awareness of what IS, contrasted to what could be, produces in the human being the essential thing for making the journey: LONGING - Soul Fire - the Sulphur of Alchemy.

We are taken on this journey by the "horse of God," our LONGING to go home. But we are only taken "as far as longing can reach." In our material world, our longing is scattered and takes us lunging like drunks from one desire to another. We want this or we want that; we satisfy our pieces of desires and never satisfy ourselves, that is, the desire to get home.

For some people, there IS no satisfaction in the material world. For those who are the lost children of the Divinity, the longing is so deep, so immense, that nothing in this world of matter can ever hold it or fill it.

People who love the Divine miss what doesn't even exist for others. When what you want is so much greater than your material self, it seems that there's never a chance of being finally fulfilled. And yet, if your longing grows, something very strange begins to happen. When you want what is Divine, and Pure, and Truth, and refuse to settle for anything else, it eventually brings you to that threshold of bankruptcy.

The Mystical Life of Reason

People who love the Divine have holes in their hearts, and inside the hole is the universe. Most people with holes in their hearts spend their lives running away from that fact. But some people turn and face it. They become Mystics.

The truth is so simple: if we want to grow up, become Godlike men and women, we have to face death before we die. We have to face what IS; the lies and deceptions of the Far Country of this reality. Our western culture carefully keeps us from such things. It keeps going, and thriving, by persuading us to value everything that's unimportant. It sells us lies on the "buy now, pay later" plan, and when the note falls due, there is nothing left with which to pay and we face annihilation.

Even in our religions and philosophies, this fact is hidden and obscured. What is nowadays halfheartedly described as mystical perception is always marginalized. When it's not outright denied or ridiculed, it is certainly held at arm's length - something "beyond the pale" of our society - or worse, it is falsified and brought to nothing by being twisted and distorted.

Man can cultivate his divine nature on earth. The mystical life is one of participating in the divine nature of our spiritual self - undergoing divination here on earth. In this process, man reaches for the highest state of perfection such that, though his "earthly nature" is present to him, he ACTS from the cultivated inclinations of his higher nature.

But mysticism alone is not enough. Without the ability to analyse, criticise, and subject the mystical experience to the tests and verifications of scientific investigation, the mystical experience remains subjective and open to obfuscation. The Mystical must be wedded to Reason. This can be done through networking, through the sharing of these experiences, comparing and studying them, and seeing where they lead us. Are we learning to SEE that which is veiled, or are we being waylaid down the Path of psychedelic phenomenon and feel-good chemical excitation of the brain?

For the past eight years we have been working with concepts that are both ancient and "new." We have experimented with how to share these concepts, and most importantly, with how to apply them in our daily lives - the School of the Soul. We have followed the path we teach. We have learned - both by revelation and by confirmation of that revelation via experience - that the process of Ascension is the Process of a Life of feeding the soul and resultant "Divination" - and that it is not necessary to withdraw from life - to become a Monk or a Yogi - to follow such a Path in practical, meaningful, and - most of all - EFFECTIVE ways. And so, with our global Network of students/teachers, we have created a School Format and concept that WORKS!

The function of a school/group/network is that of a body. It is established on the IDEAL of the higher self and the divine nature and that it can be "brought to birth" in a human being. It is the faith in this possibility that underlies the "confession" of St. Peter - it was his acknowledgment that it had been achieved in the man "Jesus", and that it could thus be achieved in others, that prompted the declaration that "Upon this rock..." Christ's church was established. It was NOT "established" on St. Peter himself, or on a formal, hierarchical body.

The Ark

The function of the school/group is also that of the Ark. It is a place where human beings living in a world bent on destruction gather not only for spiritual nourishment, but also for safety in passing over the "flood." Those who serve the spiritual food by which the soul is regenerated and nourished are servants taking upon themselves the responsibility of feeding the people. The group/network is therefore a home, a haven, a world within a world.

In the Quantum Future School, there are no ranks and orders, but cooperating elements, each element with its own privileges, responsibilities, and duties in seeing that the Ark reaches its destination.

The course of the Ark is not set by cold and dead laws; it is set by a "Rudder," which serves to steer it away from dangers and to insure its course. The "Rudder" is the teaching of spiritual navigation transmitted via the Cassiopaeans to the Navigator - Laura Knight Jadczyk - who demonstrated her mastery of the teachings by her own ability to change her reality - who then began the work of transmitting these skills to others so that they may become Navigators as well. Thus it is that we follow these ideas not out of blind obedience to antiquated traditions, but out of practical understanding that they are TOOLS that have been given to us.

Authority is not something that allows us to act as we wish. Authority is knowledge given to us, understood within its proper context, which is the navigation of the Ark. In other words, we follow the directions given to us because our practical experiences demonstrate that they're actual skills of navigation while constantly checking and correcting our course. The two things are inseparable. The School functions because it has navigation skills transmitted to it, and the School is directed on a certain course because the course is defined by the navigation skills and the course corrections. The act of navigation contains within it the knowledge of the destination, yet without any anticipation of the form of its actualisation.

For the seeker wishing to join the Quantum Future School, a price has to be paid. A price always has to be paid, and it's because people weren't willing to pay the price that things have ended up the way they are in our current reality. The price is what it always has been: the self, our willingness to be completely transformed. Nothing less will do.

Participation in the Quantum Future School is not only a sharing of words and progress on oneself cannot be made by standing back and watching. Without dedicated personal involvement, words are only words. And the tradition does not exist to edify, or entertain, or even to inspire. It exists to draw people home.

So many people today are concerned about the extinction of all the species on the planet.

But there's hardly anyone who notices the most extraordinary threat of all: the extinction of our knowledge of what we are... and what we can really do if we become our fullest selves...

What to expect

Laura asked the C's the following question:

(L) Okay, I wanted to ask a few things about the group. My idea has been that one of the main things that the group ought to be dealing with is how to learn to read when programs are activated around them. There are plenty of groups that can discuss politics and conspiracies and so on, but the real work on the self is quite a bit more difficult. I have been thinking that the most important thing we need to do is learn how to free our energy and increase our frequency thereby. Can you give any guidance about how to best go about this other than what we have already learned or what we are already doing? Any further guidance?

And the C's responded, "Help others to read programs in themselves."

With awareness of our own cultural, societal, and parental programming we can work toward resisting these triggers one choice at a time. The STO path requires constant choosing, and before we can choose we have to be aware of what choices are available. It is a creative path, rather than a destructive and manipulative path that seems to be the default choice in our reality.

Descarte's famous quote, "I think, therefore I am," leaves too many assumptions undefined to stand on it's own as a real proof. What is "I"? What does it mean to think? How does one know if one is thinking? Am I really thinking right now? Why does thinking infer "I am"? Does "I am" mean - the one "I" thinking?

Before we can become our own masters, we need to take steps toward seeing who we are now in a logical, scientific manner. We are all STS, that is, our thoughts and actions serve ourselves, and we learned long ago how to manipulate to achieve our ends. In a world where this is the default setting, how could we have learned otherwise?

We have a predator's mind that uses us until we become conscious of it. This mind constantly views the world in terms of "us and them", tapping into our basic desires of fear, sex, and survival to inflame our passions and obscure our preceptions of that which really is.

Over our lives, we have developed many defensive strategies to survive in this harsh world, and unless we become aware of them, we will mechanically follow patterns we long ago should have left behind as our knowledge base increased. Our thoughts are rarely our own; they are mere tape recordings. We have a tape for almost every situation that arises, unless it is something shocking, in which case we no longer have a tape and we either panic and bury our head, or we rise to the occasion and begin to see, and then maybe even begin to do.

For whatever reason, some become sickened by this state of affairs and search the world for answers. Some begin to look within, and face the darkness. Some begin to see the symbolic nature of our reality. If you are one of those people, then perhaps this school is for you.

The only other Turning Point in history that can be compared with the present one is that of the legendary "Great Flood." And so, we come to the idea that the search for the Holy Grail and the alchemical work of distillation of the Philosopher's Stone is ALSO the "building of an Ark" in order to pass over into the New World. Only human beings of iron will, guided by a higher consciousness, or Noë, will advance into the New Heaven and New Earth, in literal terms.

The coming era has Two Faces: One of Paradise Restored, the other a Deluge of Fire. We can choose which Face of God we behold.
