Bible Discourse 10 Hereafter ye shall see Heaven Open

Discourse 10

Hereafter ye shall see Heaven Open

Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, “We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”

And Nathanael said unto him, “Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, “Come and see.”

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, “Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!”

Nathanael saith unto him, “Whence knowest thou me?”

Jesus answered and said unto him, “Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.”

Nathanael answered and saith unto him, “Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the king of Israel.”

Jesus answered and said unto him, “Because I saw unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou?  Thou shalt see greater things than these.”  And he saith unto him, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.”

John 1:44--51

Hereafter ye shall see Heaven Open

John’s Discourse to Nathanael

Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, “We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”                                     John 1:44—45\

Philip cites about the intuitive revelations of Moses and prophets regarding the coming of Christ. Philip stated to Nathanael that the long awaited had come in the form of Jesus of Nazareth. The events in the past leave imprints in the ether, which some people tune in as mental images or visions. Karmic law of cause and effect shall leave impressions in the ether. Only true Godly prophets prophecy the future events correctly.  Potuluri Veerabrahmendra Swamy of Andhra Pradesh, India, was a Godly saint who could predict the events like train, aeroplane etc. Moses and Isaiah and other prophets of Old Testament have foretold the advent of Jesus.

   

And Nathanael said unto him, “Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, “Come and see.”

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, “Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!”      John 1:46—47

Sincerity is a virtue of virtues on the spiritual path. Nathanael was a simpleton. Nazareth was politically and socially backward place. Philip knew he could remove the despair by the blessing of Christ to that insignificant place. In India the appearance of Holy personage is called  Darshan. Jesus gave soul penetrating look to Nathanael. Nathanael was bewildered by this look. Jesus said: ““Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!”  Behold a soul that is free from satanic insincerity. A heart which is pure and pious shall touch the God surely.  

 Nathanael saith unto him, “Whence knowest thou me?”

Jesus answered and said unto him, “Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.”

Nathanael answered and saith unto him, “Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the king of Israel.”     John 1:48—49

Nathanael was astonished to hear speak of him with the familiarity of long association.  Jesus said: “Before Philip called you, I saw you.”  Jesus saw him with soul searching eyes. Jesus saw him under the fig tree.  Fig tree is the replica  of spinal cord where the chakras are located.  Man’s body is figuratively an upturned tree with roots of cranial nerves. They feed the spinal trunk and sending forth life and consciousness to the burgeoning branches of the nervous system.

Jesus could see Nathanael’s past life and its purity. Jesus rediscovered another disciple. The eyes from the past lives change a little because they are the windows of the soul.  Nathanael could feel that Jesus was blessing him with vibrations suffusing his consciousness. Nathanael told Jesus instantly in awe: “Thou art the son of God; thou art the king of Israel.”  Nathanael is commonly thought to be also known as Bartholomew, a disciple among the “inner circle” of Jesus’ followers chosen as one of the twelve apostles. 

Jesus answered and said unto him, “Because I saw unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou?  Thou shalt see greater things than these.”  And he saith unto him, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.”     John 1:50—51

Jesus said:  Because I said unto you. I saw you under the fig tree, I believe thou?  You shall see greater things than you. Fig tree is the replica of spinal cord where the chakras are located.  The spirituality will be elevated through chakras. Jesus was pleased with Nathanael’s l astral and thought vibrations, greater things than this you will be able to perceive;  you shall see heaven open and angels of the God ascending and descending upon the son of man.”

Son of man is replica of physical body.  Son of God is the replica of Christ Consciousness. Man’s astral body ascends at death and descends at rebirth.  Astral freedom is temporary and return to earth due to karma.

As per Genesis “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  And the earth was without form, and void (pure consciousness, the creative thoughts of God. They are the ideational causes of all beginnings)……And God said, ‘Let there be light’: and there was light (the basic building block of manifested forms—the structural essence of God’s triune creation: the vibratory light of thoughtrons, lifetrons, and atoms)……And God said, ‘Let there be a firmament in the midst of waters (Creative elements), and let it divide the waters from the waters (the subtle causal and astral elements from the gross physical elements).  And God made the firmament  (ether provides a background for gross manifestation.  It serves to divide the physical universe and astral world), and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament….And God called t firmament Heaven (the astral world)….And God said, ‘Let the waters (gross elements) under the heaven be gathered together into one place and let the dry land appear (materialization of the gross elements into a physical universe).                                      Genesis 1:1—9

                                                                     

Heaven is said to have three regions: Sat i.e., vibrationless Infinity of God the Father, Tat i.e., Son of the Father or Krishna/Christ Consciousness, and Om i.e., Holy Ghost or Krishna/Christ vibratory creative intelligence in which the angels and highest evolved saints reside, and the vibratory spheres of the Causal and astral world.

Jesus said: “In my Father’s house are many mansions.”  John 14:2

The above are the different mansion.  At death, man  ascends or descends astral regions  in accordance with his karma.

The astral region is a kingdom of light.  People live in astral fields many times lived than this earth. They might have spent few or many years during their sojourn on earth.  Every physical object had an astral counter part.  This astral universe consists of heavenly objects and have no limitations like earthly objects.   Astral Beings and objects have form and substance. They will not collide with each other unlike on earth.  The astral colors are imitated by earthly ones. The astral light many times luminous than earth but shall not be harsh or glaring.

The earth is limited by sky. The astral heaven is limited by nimbus, and rainbow colors. Birth and death are merely change in consciousness. When physically dies, a being loses the consciousness of flesh. It becomes aware of the astral world.  At a karmically predetermined time it takes birth on the earth. It is attracted to similar inhabited planets in accordance with karma.

In astral kingdom no one is born of woman’s body and of no physical sex.  Children are born at will usually from recently departed souls from earth who became astral beings. The earthly memories gradually fade. They meet and recognize their dear ones that are lost on earth. The astral beings have many fathers, mothers, children, spouses, of many incarnations. But the astral beings have no special feeling toward each other. They embrace each other in universal love consciousness.

Astral beings will have perception and cognition. They have intuition. They don’t have mortal sense limitations. They have no books to read.  There are several layers in Astral region. The advanced Astral region people can visualize the concepts and those concepts are transformed into permanent record of astral light vibrations. Final merger with God shall remove the reading and acquiring knowledge from books.

Astral beings travels at the aped of Light.   They travel in a vehicular mass  of luminous lifetrons.  Causal beings travel time and distance at the speed of thought.

When Jesus told Nathanael that he would “see heaven open, and angels ascending and descending on the Son of man,”.   Heaven and its wonders can be realized in the here and now.  The son of man with physical matter is this human body and physical consciousness and is dissociated from its heavenly essence.  Paradise is not seen by the physical eye. To see heaven as expressed by Jesus one need to go beyond the vibrations of ether, physical eye limitations, and one need to look with omnipresent perception of spiritual eye.

Bhagavan Siva has  three eyes. One out of three eyes is the spiritual eye that is located between the eye brows in the Christ centre. All saints receive their communion with God through the spiritual eye.  The two physical eyes are an externalization of subtle forces in the  spiritual eye of the astral body. The seat of spiritual eye is located in the subtle centre of bifurcated life energy currents flows into physical eyes. It gives dual perception of matter. In deep meditation the gaze of the two eyes i.e.,the out flow of dual currents from the medulla reunite and then medulla beholds the spiritual eye.

By the right method of meditation the sadhak finds a three circled light on the forehead. There will be a five pointed silver star called Sat or God the Father or Cosmic consciousness. This is surrounded by blue colored tat  or Son of Father or Krishna/Christ consciousness where the angels and spiritually most advanced saints dwell. This is surrounded by Golden colored Om or Holy Ghost or Krishna/Christ vibratory intelligence.

When the physical body and mind are restless, the consciousness does not record the presence of angels and spiritual beings ascending and descending upon the Son of the man.
