"I: Reality and Subjectivity" pp. 216-222

Throughout history, humanity has heard about the "Will of God," the "Word of God," the "Laws of God," and the "Commandments of God," but these words have often brought fear rather than hope.Therefore, we would like to investigate how humanity actually came to know the truth of God, and examine what can be believed and proven within that context.

Traditionally, the main methods for obtaining knowledge about God, besides revelation, enlightenment, inspiration, and introspection, were speculation and deduction. Theology is a specialized study of religion, where one intellectually develops an understanding of God.

Theology is primarily a historical examination of the elements where knowledge arose and merged into epistemological and metaphysical philosophy. Therefore, the fundamental elements essential to all forms of knowledge became the focus of analysis and speculation.

Religion is based on the premise that it is impossible for ordinary humans to understand God. Much less is it possible to experience the truth of God. Thus, historically, religion has become the primary source of information for the masses regarding the nature of "Divinity."

The truth of every religion was born from the realizations of mystics. And those mystics were the avatars who became the origins of the religions they founded. They were all spiritually gifted individuals who realized God and shared their experiences, information, and knowledge for the benefit of all humanity. When we measure the levels of their awakening using the aforementioned techniques, the following values were obtained.

Beyond those listed here, we can understand the truth of all the great awakened teachers, masters, saints, and sages in history, while simultaneously measuring the authenticity of the sacred scriptures and teachings of their time. We have reached the very core of reliable information. It is a cross-validating method that encompasses all races, ethnicities, and religious boundaries, and for centuries, measuring completely different cultures has yielded consistent results.

Looking at it collectively, all verifiable and highly credible scriptures written about the nature of "Divinity" are surprisingly common and interrelated. There, a foundation of irreducible truth, which can be said to reign over all knowledge, reveals itself, and in modern times, this has become verifiable through recently discovered tools. Therefore, anyone with normal intelligence can grasp, convey, and demonstrate these teachings in a way that can be understood. We can now say that we have a logical and verifiable modern version of theology.

It is extremely important to recognize here that "Truth" is not something that can be proven, nor is it a subject of proof, and it does not belong to the category of measurable knowledge like the subject of "logic." Truth can only be demonstrated by experiencing it subjectively."Things that can be proven" are merely propositions, but real things, such as space, are in a state of "is," so there is no room for argument here. We can challenge descriptions, but we are powerless against the truth of subjectivity.

From the entire body of verifiable and reliable material regarding spiritual knowledge, we can extract the ultimate essence. It forms the core of what is completely reliable and transcends all positions and self-interest.From the source of subjective truth, which can be called the origin of the words in these scriptures, and from the spiritual experiences of humanity throughout history, we can present the following with absolute certainty.

1. God manifests as the "totality" and "wholeness" of "creation," and at the same time, is non-manifest as the "Supreme God," "infinite potentiality," the source before form, or the "Void."

2. God is infinite, beyond time and all expressions and locations of space, with no beginning and no end.

3. God is omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent.

4. God is the Source and the foundation of consciousness, awareness, knowing, and intuition.

5. God is the sole source of life energy.

6. God is the source of evolution and 'creation,' which are one and the same.

7. God is the source and manifestation of peace, love, stillness, and beauty.

8. God transcends all universes and matter, while simultaneously being the source of 'all that exists.'

9. God is the sole source of existence and its potentiality.

10. God is the ultimate context, and the universe and all things are its content.

11. God is the innate, formless source of existence inherent in all forms.

12. God does not belong to the realm of intellect or provability.

13. God is the source and essence of the subjectivity of 'I-ness,' which is what is called awakening.

14. God is the primordial subjectivity of 'Self-realization.'

15. God, descriptively speaking, is immanent and transcendent.

16. The 'Presence of God' experienced by humanity is common regardless of age, culture, or region.

17. When human consciousness experiences the 'Presence of God,' a subjective transformation occurs. This is a common phenomenon throughout human history.

18. The nature of God does not contain human flaws. Flaws include feelings of lack, desire for control, favoritism, dualistic perspectives, value judgments, anger, righteous indignation, resentment, limitations, arbitrariness, vanity, vengefulness, jealousy, retaliation, vulnerability, and locality.

19. The variety in the expression of 'divinity' reflects the infinite human perceptions and the obstacles of the ego and its position.

20. The purity of the 'Presence of God' is the essence of the ineffable quality traditionally called holiness, and it is the source of what we describe as 'sacred.' Containing no content, it is identical to 'innocence.'

21. If one can transcend the barriers of human thoughts, emotions, or the underlying structure of the ego, the 'Self' as the immanent God naturally emerges. It is the same as the sun shining after the clouds have passed.

22. God is the context and the source of the karmic unity of all 'creation.' It transcends all perceptual descriptions and the limitations of space and time.

23. Truth is demonstrable only by identification, not by knowing about it.

The above statements regarding the 'Truth of Divinity' were confirmed to be absolute in their authenticity in public on July 13, 2003 (KIN 141). The investigation was conducted during a public lecture in front of an audience of over two hundred people. The audience was divided into teams of one hundred for kinesiological testing, and everyone tested the truth of each statement simultaneously. The result was 100% 'true' (measurement 1000), and the process was recorded on video.The purpose of conducting this test was to present reliable information regarding 'Truth' to the modern world and to introduce a verifiable testing method that does not rely on historical accounts or clerical authority, which modern people view with skepticism.

Traditionally, self-realization is enlightenment or transcendent awareness, where, when all barriers are removed, human consciousness can understand its essence through 'Grace.' However, witnesses to enlightenment or illumination can only report that it simply happened. Strangely, at that point, there is no 'meaning' as described above. Significance and conclusions are derived later.

Only when light is shed on the totality of the content of human consciousness do the destination and origin of the levels of consciousness become clear. It is similar to how a map reveals where a road leads. Therefore, saints and avatars are merely pointing out where various directions lead, following the absolute law of karma and the divinity of 'creation,' which are as certain as gravity in terms of physical laws.

Next, the saint confirms that the karmic law of 'creation' replaces all illusions and errors of the ego. The message conveyed by spiritual teachings is simply that just as the body is based on Newtonian linear physical laws, the spiritual body is based on non-linear laws of spiritual truth. And these two are completely different.Because the evolution of human consciousness is in its early stages, avatars, mystics, and saints have received revelations to teach the difference between the two realms.

Human life appears to symbolize a gradual process or dimension. This is because consciousness as life has evolved from the simplest life energy of cells to become refined into form, progressed through the animal kingdom to become primates, and further developed intellect, which gave rise to understanding.And through the further cultivation of intelligence, one begins to explore and understand meaning, and can extract the essence from form. That is context for content. And from context, spiritual awareness arises to speculate about or explore the Source.

Animals can know and have affection, but they have no knowledge of their own source or destiny. On the other hand, a spiritual saint is one who appears by reaching a level of consciousness that discovers the Source, and they communicate what they have discovered as information for the whole. Through that spiritual information, the destiny of the soul after the body perishes is revealed.

Among humanity who hear this news, some rejoice while others are terrified, and they become authoritarians. They form groups, and sometimes individuals appear who confess their own strange experiences. Such individuals leave the group and begin their own interpretations of what has been revealed. They further turn their statements into 'rules,' 'regulations,' or authoritative pronouncements, which later become 'canon law,' 'laws,' and religious doctrines.

Such deviations, by placing excessive emphasis on inappropriate things, eventually cloud and ruin the truth that is the basis of the doctrine. In the worst cases, they significantly distort the content, sometimes even making claims that are the exact opposite of the original. Killing innocent people, infidels, or Americans in the name of God is the prime example of this.

The purity of consciousness is also its weakness, as it has no way to defend against attacks from energy that opposes spiritual truth. As a result of investigating the verifiable spiritual information available to humanity, it can be concluded that the karmic unity of all 'creation' is immutable in its manifestation, transcending time and expression, and is in perfect harmony with the unity we call God.
