THE ALL: Unveiling The Substantial Reality - The Underlying Power of the Universe. In this episode, we delve into the profound concept articulated in "The Kybalion": “Under, and back of, the Universe of Time, Space and Change, is ever to be found The Substantial Reality—the Fundamental Truth.” This exploration seeks to understand what lies beneath the ever-changing phenomena of the universe—the enduring, unchanging essence known as the Substantial Reality."Substance" refers to that which underlies all external manifestations, the essence or essential reality. "Substantial" means genuinely existing, the essential element, and "Reality" denotes the state of being real, true, and enduring. According to The Kybalion, behind all outward appearances or manifestations, there must be a Substantial Reality. This is a fundamental law.Man perceives the universe, of which he is a part, as a realm of constant change in matter, forces, and mental states. Nothing remains static—everything is in a state of becoming and changing. This perpetual change is evident in the birth, growth, and death of all things. The law of rhythm operates incessantly, ensuring that nothing endures but change itself. Observing this ceaseless flux, a thinking man might deduce that all these changing entities must be manifestations of some Underlying Power or Substantial Reality.Throughout history, thinkers have postulated the existence of this Substantial Reality, giving it various names—Deity, The Infinite and Eternal Energy, or Matter. Despite the different terminologies, the acknowledgment of its existence is universal and self-evident.The lessons presented draw from the wisdom of ancient and modern Hermetic Masters, who term this Underlying Power as "THE ALL." This designation is considered the most comprehensive of the many names humans have ascribed to that which transcends language and concepts. Hermetic philosophy asserts that the true nature of THE ALL is unknowable, comprehensible only by THE ALL itself.Hermetists teach that any human attempt to understand THE ALL's inner nature is futile, likening it to a squirrel running endlessly in a treadmill wheel, never reaching a destination. They reject ascribing human traits to THE ALL, viewing such efforts as immature and rapidly discarded notions.However, while the essential nature of THE ALL remains unknowable, certain truths about its existence compel human acceptance. Reason informs us that THE ALL must encompass all that truly exists, be infinite in time and space, and be immutable. Anything finite and changeable cannot be THE ALL. The reconciliation of this apparent contradiction lies in understanding that the finite manifestations are not separate from THE ALL but expressions of its infinite nature.In essence, THE ALL is not mere matter or energy but Infinite Living Mind—reverently referred to as SPIRIT by the illumined. This profound understanding forms the foundation of Hermetic philosophy and invites deep contemplation and inquiry.#SubstantialReality #FundamentalTruth #TheKybalion #HermeticPhilosophy #TheAll #EternalEssence #ImmutableNature #InfiniteMind #SpiritualWisdom #HermeticTeachings #BeyondChange #UnveilingTheAll #InfiniteLivingMind #EssenceOfExistence #HermeticInsights #Transcendence #MetaphysicalTruth #WisdomOfTheAncients #SpiritualEnlightenment #HermeticMastersBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-law-of-attraction-manifest-your-best-life--5979364/support.
