Grady McMurtry: Cosmic Trigger, War in Heaven
-
I've been reading Cosmic Trigger by Robert Anton Wilson. On page 163 he describes a conversation he has with Grady McMurtry — Caliph of the Ordo Templi Orientis, UFO researcher Jacques Vallee, and others.
Below is a quote from the book. I am interested to hear what the members of the forum think about McMurtry's hypothesis about the higher intelligence contacted through the Great Work.
"For years I've been asking Phylis and everybody else I know: why does the gnosis always get busted? Every single time the energy is raised and large-scale group illuminations are occurring, the local branch of the Inquisition kills it dead. Why, why, why?"
Nobody had any very conclusive ideas.
"I'll tell you what I think," Grady said. "There's war in Heaven. The Higher Intelligences, whoever they are, aren't all playing on the same team. Some of them are trying to encourage our evolution to higher levels, and some of them want to keep us stuck just where we are."
According to Grady, some occult lodges are working with those nonhuman intelligences who want to accelerate human evolution, but some of the others are working with the intelligences who wish to keep us near an animal level of awareness.

Sure. Nothing new or strange there.

A battle of good vs. evil over the evolution of humanity.
Epic.
Thanks Jim.

I went through a period of my life when I did a lot of research into murder, murderers and psychopaths.
I have such a hard time hurting others, and yet others didn't mind at all and even enjoyed it.....
I don't know why some little boys kill kittens, and pull girls hair.
But they do.I also had a hard time understanding that people do not have the same mental capacities, that the average IQ is less the 110. They do not have the capacity for certain mental activities.
Some people like being told what to do, they need direction, and guidance.
They like constant, secure, safe and sound. I have to keep this mundane and not ever get into the subject of other dimensionals, other types of life that may be at work...
But I know that there are human being whose actions and thoughts are completely alien to me. -
What do you mean "getting busted", Dar?

"The question is, how do you tell the difference between this latter group and:
@Liber Tzaddi said
"36. Many have arisen, being wise. They have said "Seek out the glittering Image in the place ever golden, and unite yourselves with It."
- Many have arisen, being foolish. They have said, "Stoop down unto the darkly splendid world, and be wedded to that Blind Creature of the Slime."
- I who am beyond Wisdom and Folly, arise and say unto you: achieve both weddings! Unite yourselves with both!
- Beware, beware, I say, lest ye seek after the one and lose the other!
- My adepts stand upright; their head above the heavens, their feet below the hells.
- But since one is naturally attracted to the Angel, another to the Demon, let the first strengthen the lower link, the last attach more firmly to the higher.
- Thus shall equilibrium become perfect."

You see if the group equates "evolution to higher levels" exclusively with either "glittering images" or "dark slime" (or some other one-sided paradigm) and plan accordingly.
