The 7 Hermetic Principles (The Kybalion by Three Initiates)

0:00 today's conversation is on the seven hermetic principles as articulated in the book The cabalan by three initiates this book was originally published in 1908 and was said to be written by William Walker Atkinson as it was the same publishing company that he owned some of my sources say it was also written in collaboration with Paul Foster case and Michael witty today we explore the seven hermetic principles based on many years of practically applying this book and stay all the way till the end as we discuss the art of mental transmutation emotions which are energy in motion may be transmuted and directed towards a creative Outlet through the art of mental transmutation like what

0:46 Napoleon Hill mentioned in thinking Grow Rich with sexual transmutation and burning desire the energy may be transmuted to a service to others as a matter of fact that's how I discovered the word transmutation I was curious as to what that word meant and it brought me to the cabalan this book was inspired by the teachings of Hermes Tris magistus who in ancient Egypt was known by the name of tho or tahuti he was Hermes in Greece and also known as mercury to the Romans and was said to also be quel KOAT in Mexico he was the inventor of alchemy so let's explore some of his wisdom today and I trust you'll enjoy and benefit from today's conversation greatly

1:32 chapter 1 starts off with the hermetic philosophy it says the lips of wisdom are closed except to the ears of understanding I recommend if you're studying the cabalion also go in to look at the other hermetic texts such as the Corpus hermeticum you'll find the cabalion to be an inspiration from that text or other hermetic text in which then you understand it to a deeper degree although the book is quite practical and quite helpful as it is so it says the lips of wisdom are closed except to the ears of understanding so the way I relate to this is that I consider the student and teacher as one the teacher teaches and gets better at teaching the teacher also teaches and

2:20 understands learns more about what they're teaching for example over the years I've shared many stories on this channel from my personal experience entrepreneurship experience relationship experience and every time I share a story I understand that story even more so I pick up even more nuances more insights and perspectives related to that story so I am learning as I teach and also as a result of relating with the student I improve my teaching skills and there is no limit I believe to how good you can be as a teacher I created a whole mindmapping program on learning and teaching and then there's so much more Nuance to that which is

3:05 revealed as you go through the continuous experience of higher degrees of Mastery of teaching same with the student the student is both the teacher and the student they teach themselves on how they can learn better they teach the teacher on how they can teach better they learn the information that's being presented and upon applying the information in the different areas of their life they also learn how to understand that information to a deeper degree they may then go back to the teacher and share their experiences and the teacher understands it even more so and so we can consider that to be a mastermind the teacher and a student now the student then may go on to become a

3:53 teacher they too end up attracting people into their lives who are interested in hearing what they have to say their life experiences they share their stories which is distinct from the experiences from their teacher and they too spread it in their way everybody has different experiences and I value the different experiences I value the insights from the various teachers I wouldn't consider one teacher to be better than another I can learn from every teacher and I can learn from every student this helps us keep an open mind and heart as they say the lips of wisdom are closed so who's closing off the lips of wisdom we're the only ones that could

4:39 close it off through lack of appreciation or understanding so everywhere we are we are on our own Acres of diamonds and everyone that appears is both a teacher and a student to us everywhere as we accept this we'll start to see it more so and we will be able to pick up on information that we once may have been closed off to they go on to say later on where fall the footsteps of the master the ears of those ready for his teachings open wide they also say when the ears of the student are ready to hear then cometh the lips to fill them with wisdom such as the law the student and teacher are

5:25 one when the student sees themselves as ready they realize that the information was always there teachers appear and also the existing teachers they understand them even more so when the teacher sees themselves as a teacher the students appear and also they realize that there were many around them that genuinely wanted to hear about their stories their life experiences their lessons their principles Etc it says so that according to the teachings the p passage of this book to those ready for the instruction will attract the attention of such as are prepared to receive the teaching and likewise when the pupil is ready to

6:11 receive the truth then will this little book come to him or her such as the law the Hermetic principle of cause and effect in its aspect of the Law of Attraction will bring lips and ear together pupil and book in company so mod it be chapter 2 speaks of the seven hermetic principles an overview it starts off by saying the principles of Truth are seven they who knows these understandingly possess the magic key before whose touch all the doors of the temple open number one the principle of mentalism number two the principle of Correspondence number three the principle of vibration number four the

6:58 principle of polarity number five the principle of Rhythm number six the principle of cause and effect and number seven the principle of gender so what we're going to do in this chapter is we're going to overview these and we'll get into deep discussion on each of them as we progress so it starts off principle of mentalism the all is mind the universe is mental it says this principle embodies the truth that all is mine it explains that all which is the substantial reality underlying in all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of the material Universe the phenomena of Life matter energy and in short all that is apparent to our material senses is

7:46 Spirit which in itself is unknowable and undefinable which may be considered and thought of as an Universal infinite living mind so we're talking about here the fundamental reality everything arises from this fundamental reality appears on and as the experiences that are you could say on top of the fundamental reality it is the foundation in which everything appears on that's why it's referred to as unknown able and

8:31 undefinable what they're saying is that what we think what we say is appearing is not that as a matter of fact all that we relate to in appearance appears on that we're aware of being that is existence itself and we imagine things we choose mental States we embodied those States mentally and it appears as life experiences what we do what we don't do all these different life experiences and the fundamental reality the substantial reality is underlying all the outward

9:17 manifestations and appearances number two the principle of Correspondence it says As Above So Below as below so above so all is one we segment it for conceptual understanding one can say I imagine things to be a certain way and then it appears that way I came up with an Insight within and others appear to reflect that Insight we also have conversations with others life experiences Etc and then we connect it back to perhaps something that we once imagined so as As Above So Below as within so

10:03 without any experience that we have outside we can track it back to what is related to the one universal cause within and by relating it to the one universal cause within we can change how we relate to the experience to facilitate change of experience it says this principle embodies the truth that there's always a correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of being and life the old hermetic Axiom ran in these words as above so below as below so above and the grasping of this principle gives one the means of solving

10:48 many a dark Paradox the hidden secret of nature we can consider this as taking more responsibility or higher degrees of internal locus of control we have internal locus of control and external locus of control external locus of control is believing that the cause is outside for example one might say I'm growing this business but I'm having challenges because there's a change in the marketplace therefore because of this change I will not be able to succeed that will be considered external locus of control they're saying because of this external appearance they won't be able to produce the result internal

11:35 locus control seeing that same scenario would be there's a change in appearance yet I can choose how I relate to this experience and so what happens then is by a person you could say taking the responsibility by realizing that there's only one power and it's within and it's how we relate to this one positive power within that appears accordingly the circumstance starts to change opportunities start to show up unexpectedly I've seen this many times in my businesses over the years and working with clients there were perhaps moments where I was dogmatically identified with a belief in relation to appearance in which I said to myself

12:22 this particular circumstance is one where I don't see any other way and what was beneficial at that time is to catch myself identifying with that belief being aware of that I was identifying with this belief and abide as the Stillness neutralize it release identification in that moment and then trust that some way somehow an answer would appear and it would at times appear as a teacher a teacher would appear based on again the lips of wisdom are closed except to the ears of understanding so I stopped closing off inside to possibilities and then someone

13:09 appeared and provided some insights and perspectives the answer was found outside because I found the answer within the answer was that I was closing myself out to possibilities and opportunities and no shame and condemnation I simply released identification to that belief and it appeared or at times an answer just arose the still Small Voice reveals an answer a hunch or inspiration intuition provides an answer and it could be a distinct answer perhaps so distinct that we've never seen anyone do it before that way but yet we go and apply it and it produces results number three the principle of vibration it says nothing rests

13:56 everything moves everything vibrates it says the principle embodies the truth that everything is in motion everything vibrates nothing is at rest an understanding of this principle with the appropriate formulas enables hermetic students to control their own mental vibrations as well as those of others so let's relate this back to being a teacher when the student appears it's important to imagine them ideally the way I do this is I ask them what are your goals what are your Visions what is your definite chief aim and they share with me in that moment I accept they are that way inwardly I don't try to convince them outwardly because we're applying the

14:41 principle of vibration as an I embodi that state and maintain that state and they appear to change and reflect that state how do they change well wonderful story The all takes care of that that's why I was mentioning that all arise from the all appear as the all and are animated by the all to reflect the vibration or the chosen state which results in the vibration so I maintain that state that they are that way and then what happens they appear to change their conversations change their behaviors change their results

15:27 change and if they say something that I would consider to be disempowering or limiting at that moment I release identification to that I don't shame I don't condemn I don't judge by appearances I don't form conclusions because I'd be imagining it that way and thus enter into a different vibration I accept that they are ideal I get to enjoy it as the teacher remaining like that and sure enough they change that's what it means by controlling their own mental VI vibrations as well as those of others because they genuinely desire to see themselves that way and our goal we take the full responsibility is the moment that they communicate that that's how they desire to be that we remain like that and then

16:15 from there what we say what we don't say what we do and what we don't do appears automatically consider this for a moment I have been a entrepreneur now since 2009 prior to that I did 10 years in corporate a lot of business building experience small business mediumsized business big corporations and I've had so many stories I learned so many things and I've worked with so many people thousands of people and I've learned from them as well as a student and teacher are one the all works with all my reference experience and also what we can consider as unknowable currently and we have the all which incomp compasses everything so we're trusting that to

17:02 arise by simply accepting that they are that way the way they see themselves ideally that is a very easy and practical way of applying the principle of vibration number four is the principle of polarity it says everything is dual everything has poles everything has its pair of opposites like and unlike are the same opposites are identical in nature but different in degree extremes meet all truths are about half truths all parag doxes may be reconciled so we could say seeming opposites yet everything is the

17:48 same it says the principle embodies the truth that everything is dual everything has two poles everything has its pair of opposites all of which were old hermetic axioms it explains the old paradoxes that have perplexed so many which have been stated as follows thesis and antithesis are identical in nature but different in degrees opposites are the same differing only in degree the pairs of opposites may be reconciled extremes meet everything is and isn't at the same time all truths about half truths every truth is half false there are two sides

18:36 for everything etc etc etc for example when someone comes out to me and says I'm having this challenge in my business I'm having a challenge finding the exact marketing campaign that is beneficial based on the following criteria something that I genuinely want to do because I don't want to be involved with marketing campaigns that I don't have to do or force myself to do because it doesn't feel authentic and something that is effective what are the ways and I said what are the ways that you're aware of and they may list three four or five ways and they say it's got to be one of these ways and I say well the answer is depends let's explore because those campaigns might be

19:22 applicable for certain scenarios and they can be helpful yet there are Infinity ways ways that are beyond what are currently taught for example in my business I used referrals my it business that was I used referrals to build a business but I did it in a very distinct way what I found was that the referrals were orchestrated more so when I was out and about with clients as in we went out for dinner we would hang out we would go to restaurants we would go visit places together outside of regular business hours outside of the formal meetings I noticed I would get more referrals over there and so would I recommend that for

20:08 everybody the answers depends that might not resonate with some some might do it in a very you could say formal way where they produce the service provide the service whatever it is product and then ask for a referral afterwards so what happens then is by doing it my way which is distinct and I never saw it done before and maybe it has been talked about I just didn't see it at that time that you know what if you hang out with your clients outside of the business initiatives in a more relaxed manner it can facilitate more deals and it did that with me actually considerably more than asking for the referral during the business hours or in a formal way then I'm just going to keep doing it answers

20:54 depends now the same is to be said about whatever else if you look at any idea there are people that will say well that's not the best way or that's not the only way or that is not even a way and some will say that is the way that is the only way that is the best way who's right and who's wrong from their perspective they're accurate they're true to it and it works for them so the principle of polarity allows us to release identification to dogmatic beliefs and also facilitate harmonious lateral being the reconciliation of Divergent and convergent thinking

21:39 Divergent thinking is seeing things from many different perspectives coming up with creative ideas perhaps ones that have never been done before convergence is taking a wellestablished solution and applying that yet that might not always be helpful because maybe that one once firmly established solution is no longer relevant right now so when one is in the flow and that's what this book The cabalan helps us do they automatically find the ideal way and it could be a diversion idea it might be a wellestablished idea and they're able to apply it and see it all the way till fruition because they're not identified with they recognize everything is and

22:24 isn't at the same time all truths are but half truths every truth is half false and even that can be said is also a Hal truth it says for example let us take a radical and extreme example that of love and hate two mental States apparently totally different and yet there are degrees of hate and degrees of love and the middle point which we can also say is a seeming middle point because it gets even more Nuance they say and the middle point in which we use the terms like or dislike which shade into each other as mentioned so gradually that sometimes we are at a loss to know whether we like or dislike or neither we can call that

23:11 being neutral the power of being neutral power in being neutral the power is in being neutral as all power is now and being neutral means no identification from there we could choose and you choose based on intuition the still Small Voice arises within the ears of understanding you remain open you're not identified with one way or another they say and all are simply degrees of the same thing as you will see if you will but think a moment in short the AR of polarization becomes a phase of Mental Alchemy known and practiced by the

23:57 ancient and modern hermetic Masters and understanding of the principle will enable one to change their own polarity as well as that of others if they will devote the time and study necessary to master the art very practical in whatever experience where one becomes reactive we could say which is identification to a belief they can in that moment return to the Stillness back into the neutral Observer position which we can say is their true observation position and from there the still Small Voice arises as the inside it could be

24:43 one way of doing things or a seeming opposite way of doing things or a varying degree in between as one practices this to get better and better and doing this and this is what happens automatically while you're in in a state of flow which is why I recommend my flow series flow-based Life series I'll link in the description to it you'll notice as you live in your flow not identified but rather open to possibilities and in a way where when the possibility arises you move forward with that initiative because there are Infinity Pathways to the destination yet you choose the pathway that is related to your vision in a harmonious way so then when it happens up ends up happening is as

25:29 mentioned earlier is when they ask the question could it be one of these five ways the marketing strategy and we say the answer is it depends let's explore all I'm doing as a facilitator is being in that neutral space being neutral and then they become neutral as they say here in short the art of polarization becomes a phase of Mental Alchemy known know and practiced by the ancient and modern hermetic Masters an understanding of the principle will enable one to change his own polarity as well as that of others so we go neutral we discover the way and then we say oh let's explore that way so we go down that pathway as we continue

26:16 to go down that pathway we find more variations of it and not in an overwhelming way not in a confusing way in a way that facilitates Clarity and they find a step-by-step process maybe they find a first few steps which is totally fine and they go and apply it and they produce the results or they apply it and they produce a certain degree of results in which then they come back and there's further optimizations and they get a higher degree of success number five is the principle of Rhythm they say everything Flows In and Out everything has its ties all things rise and fall the pendulum swing manifests in everything the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left Rhythm compensates so look at it as ocean waves

27:04 or Seasons Four Seasons or different experiences where you could say you feel a peak state of flow then it's a more mellow state of flow and then back to a peak state of flow is one better than the other well if we consider that one is better than the other and not recognize that the Rhythm Is In Harmony and in contribution to the Vision we may become polarized to one way or another although it's a lot of fun to be in a peak state of flow it's also fun to be in a mellow state of flow I see them both as valuable there are times where I'm in a peak state of flow and there are times where I'm more in a mellow state of flow the flow fluidity of Mind allows me

27:51 to adjust accordingly and relate accordingly to apply this Principle as it says here this principle embodies the truth that in everything there is manifested a measured motion to and fro a flow and inflow a swing backward and forward a pendulum like movement a tide like e and flow a high tide and low tide the Hermits have grasped this principle finding its Universal application and have also discovered certain means to overcome its effects in themselves by the use of the appropriate formulas and methods they apply the mental law of neutralization as mentioned neutralization they cannot anal the

28:37 principle or cause it to cease its operation they have learned how to escape its effects upon them to a certain degree depending upon the Mastery of the principle they have learned how to use it instead of being used by it this is very applicable very practical this is a very practical book for day-to-day life because one may allow themselves to be polarized to one way or another or a certain experience in which they themselves react to it and move in that different thread not in harmony with their Vision let's say a person is walking down the street and there's a person that is appearing a certain way and they happen to be walking towards them and they may

29:25 look angry let's say now we can observe and say well that person looks angry but are we identifying with the Nuance point of that whatever we relate to the experience we are now at the whim of it so regardless of they look angry or not they're moving towards you and you can either take a step out of the way like step to the right so you can give them the passage or you can maintain that position as to let's say hold your ground to try to fight them and let's let's say you did do that and then it turns into a conflict the other person says watch where you're going and then you might say well you should watch where you're going or something like that and it turns into this unnecessary conflict is that the ideal thing to do

30:10 at the time what is in harmony with your goals and your Visions you know szu said the Pinnacle is to subdue the enemy without fighting there could only be what we can call an enemy Within although I wouldn't call it an enemy it's belief identification that belief that is not true and authentic person identifies with it and they get into a conflict with that person and then they go home and they have a conflict with their kids then they go to their business and they have conflict with their staff there seems to be a recurring pattern here that's playing out an identification with focusing on who is Right rather than making the accurate move because we're able to observe

30:56 what's going on we're present we neutralize in the moment we don't get involved with an unnecessary conflict and we maintain our flow and as we continue to do that we experience a flow based journey to actualize our vision this is valuing the principle of Rhythm it is not fighting against the world it is rather dancing with the world to experience the inner and outer as one and you get better at practice now back in the days I would have done that I'll say this person is moving towards me they're looking like they want some trouble this is back in my teenage days I'm going to stay here and sure enough they'd probably end up

31:41 bumping into me and then I'd say listen you got a problem and then it would just turn into this unnecessary Conflict for no reason and some of those unnecessary conflicts can land you in a lot of trouble many different ways so is it worth it then that's one of the reasons why we have a vision when a person has a vision they make the appropriate moves in relation to the vision accurate moves in relation to the vision thus they're able to work with the principle of Rhythm rather than drifting and creating unnecessary circumstances that have no benefit other than one could say revealing the belief identified with so a person can make peace with it release identification to that belief because if that belief keeps playing out and the

32:27 circumstances and the results as a result of cause and effect which we're going to talk about in a moment are undesirable and the person keeps doing it then it could result in an unpleasant life and so here what's being encouraged is a pleasant life number six the principle of cause and effect they say every cause has its effect so anytime we identify with something what are the effects is it focusing on who is right or is it focusing on what is accurate in relation to your vision they say every cause has its effect every effect has its cause so we can track cause and effect reflection in relation to this effect how am I relating to the one cause within through imagination through

33:15 beliefs what state am I in as a result of effect what state did I once identified with what belief was I identified with everything happens they according to law chance is but a name for law not recognize there are many planes of causation but nothing escapes the law we could say degrees of causation there is one universal cause within and there are degrees or planes of that causation as a person ascends in their understanding they see it from higher and higher perspectives for example that story that I mentioned earlier there were times where I would be confused used by that I'd say where isn't it important to have it your way and

34:01 continue to have it your way now I'll say this to myself but back then I didn't see it I'll say what is the ideal way to have it your way does it involve unnecessary polarization unnecessary conflict if you already know what's going to play out because you can see it you already know what's going to play out and it's not helpful or it's going to create unnecessary resistance tension frustration why make that move that's one of the reasons why szu mentioned that in Art of War what he also mentioned was the outcome of every battle is determined before it's fought so we can determine and we can rise to higher planes of causation or understanding higher degrees of

34:48 understanding and know how things are going to play out intuitively trust our intuition we get better at it with practice the next is the principle of gender it says gender is in everything everything has its masculine and feminine principles gender manifests on all plates this principle embodies the truth that there is gender manifested in everything the masculine and feminine principles ever at work this is true not only of the physical plane but of the mental and even spiritual ples the principle of gender Works ever in the

35:33 direction of generation regeneration and creation everything and every person contains the two elements or principles of this great principle so ideally we bring ourselves into an inner reconciliation of this principle if the principle is not reconciled it could result in polarization to different experiences in life that we can call undesirable we see this in relationships all areas of life as it manifests in everything and so when do we take a step forward when do we not take that step we reconcile this within what I found is

36:20 that knowing yourself and knowing your ideal ratio within plays out automatically as experiences which we can call Harmonious relationships friendships harmonious relationship with life in general consider the following the conscious and the subconscious aspect of mind the subconscious aspect of mind is what we impress consciously the Unseen power takes that impression and gives form and material you could say the subconscious gives birth to what appears upon conscious impression when the reconciliation has happened to a

37:06 high degree what happens is one can suggest something to themselves like that's the way it is that impression is made on the subconscious mind and the Unseen power externalizes it for them so now when we relate all of these together we could say all is mind universe is mental the principle of mentalism I can appear to affect change by choosing a mental state or imagining things to be a certain way and the principle of Correspondence as above or as within so without or as below I can now relate to the one cause within and via the principle of Correspondence it

37:54 externalizes and the principle of gend I imagine it is a certain way leaves an impression on the subconscious mind and it gives birth as that life experience now on the journey to actualizing the experience this is also happening this is happening both in relation to the destination we can call it where we desire to be and also on the journey to the destination and on the journey to actualizing that destination or that Vision consider the principle of vibration you know what state you're in consider then also the principle of polarity you know how to relate to

38:39 experiences when you have a harmonious relationship with the subconscious aspect of mind you can consciously observe first by being neutral which is a natural result of having that Harmony Within You observe and then you know how to respond you know what to imagine to impress that on the subconscious mind in which the outer expression changes the outer appearance changes and you also value the Rhythm everything flows in and out and you're not troubled by it so some might be in denial about this because they're afraid of the Rhythm but rather you're saying you know what what

39:25 appears in that moment I'll relate to it how I like to relate to this is a skill cultivation for example let's say you're learning a skill let's say you're learning how to snowboard maybe in the earlier stages you might consider watching some videos they teach you a few things if you watch too many videos on what moves to make and a lot of people are saying do it this way and others are saying do it this other way and whatnot it could be very confusing so you say I'm going to take a few pointers and I'm going to go on the slopes I'm going to start in the beginner slopes and you accept that you're going to fall it's fine totally fine and as you go down the slopes you fall you get back up you don't shame or

40:11 condemn yourself you say if I fall that's fine I will actually get better while I fall because I would have learned things that are beyond what I'm consciously trying to learn via Theory via the experience I'm going to learn so then what happens is you apply these few things and you progress when we think accurately we say we see ourselves performing a certain way on the slope some way somehow eventually but right now it's The Learning Experience student and teacher are W the hills are teaching me the videos are teaching me maybe others in the slopes offer some pointers Maybe maybe You

40:56 observe others on the slopes and you learn from them yet you're enjoying the experience you're progressing and because you are adjusting via the principle of polarity and also the principle of Rhythm the experience is more flow-based and you actually find that you make accelerated progress because when you accept what is appearing and you accept that you'll eventually get to that destination of being this ideal snowboarder or whatever you imagine then you realize that the steps the journey is as valuable as the destination you value it and you adjust accordingly so in other words you don't end up polarizing to this is not

41:42 working one might consider they're not good enough or something like that but rather you look at this and say this is part of the learning experience it's okay if I fall and if I fall again and again I happen to fall the same way maybe I'll watch a couple videos to see why I'm falling that way this is from my experience as well when I learned how to snowboard 3 or 4 years ago I noticed that I was what is called catching an edge I didn't know about that watched a couple videos they talked about it how to not have that happen applied it and away I go so rather than overwhelming myself with a whole bunch of nuances of what could be learned I learned at a wonderful pace and you have fun on the journey so then you end up going back to the slopes cuz you have so much fun and

42:27 when you have fun you progress because you're okay with the rhythm you're fine with the Rhythm some would even say you embrace the chaos of the Rhythm the seeming chaos and as you embrace it you have more of a flow-based journey to the destination mental transmutation it says mind as well as metals and elements may be transmuted from state to state from degree to degree condition to condition pole to pole vibration to vibration true himatic transmutation is a mental art so the mental art consider this for a moment what makes it challenging for

43:15 one to apply the mental art of transmutation in other words if one experiences emotions one way to experience it differently well it's beliefs here's what I mean by that many years ago when I was developing my ability to speak publicly while I was building my it business I took on this opportunity to teach the speed reading workshops for a company called Iris reading largest speed reading organization in North America I took on this opportunity because I felt that if I was teaching these workshops on Saturday and Sunday there would be a number of opportunities number one I would improve my skill

44:00 because putting myself in a challenging situation is helpful because then I could learn more about myself and cultivate the skill and apply all the things I was learning similar to the snowboarding example number two there was also opportunities as I was presenting this information with entrepreneurs and career professionals that there could have been some perhaps business deals that would come from it and so I took on this opportunity and what I noticed was the anxiety would start to build up on Monday let's say I was teaching these workshops on Saturday and Sunday the anxiety would start to build up on Monday and then Tuesday would increase Wednesday Thursday and Friday it would be very overwhelming now the art of transmutation mental

44:47 transmutation suggests that we don't suppress or repress the emotions but rather we transmute them so I was able to transmute that emotion which we can call anxiety over to excitement by setting the intention that I can do that emotions are energy in motion and we relate to them either consciously or subconsciously by beliefs so by transmuting the energy in motion the emotions do not get suppressed or repressed rather they get transmuted and what ends up happening is the person ends up doing the thing and I did this

45:35 through Autos suggestion by communicating to myself that those beliefs that I was once identified with were not true in this given experience for example I would notice that you could say when I question the emotions and this is why I recommend build building a relationship with your emotions the conversation we had the other day with Ruben he explains his process for it I recommend watching that video I'll link in the description to it so when we understand what our emotions are revealing we could track it back to the belief that is related to the one cause within and that belief if identified with results in

46:23 emotions being experienced that so if we change that belief if we now say this experience of teaching publicly or public speaking or whatever is fun joyous and we accept that suggestion we actually start to experience emotions that way so again the emotions do not get suppressed or repressed during mental transmutation rather we transmute and the experiences change this is one scenario where it can be applied and this is true because the mental state that one is in which is a body of beliefs plays out as how we relate to

47:10 experiences so one of the things that I noticed was I would experience anxiety because I had a story or we could say a belief which is a story that others wouldn't accept me the way that I am even though I had the reference experience the knowledge and the wisdom for whatever the reason may be I once believed that when I communicate the authenticity of my experience others won't accept me so then I started to suggest to myself others accept me for who I am they enjoy my presentations and they benefit greatly I look forward to I'm excited for experiences to speak publicly this improves my business this

47:58 opens up more doors for different kinds of life experiences that I have because I'm no longer identified with beliefs of fear of rejection something like that and I'd record them as statements and play them on Loop or you could read them to yourself a handful of times in the morning or before going to sleep what ends up happening then is the experience changed every week I would feel less and less anxiety it would start to become neutralized during the experience and then what would happen was I felt excitement doing it so now I love making videos I love speaking publicly I do many Consulting sessions a week I speak publicly many times during

48:45 the week in different scenarios usually online based but I've done a lot of offline based workshops I remember in 2018 I did 16 flights in 30 days where we taught the speed reading workshops in North America and I had fun during the whole time I was enjoying it so the emotions which again is energy in motion is not suppressed or repressed but rather transmuted and experienced that way and then also the experience changes so everything changes the behaviors changed the physical experiences the audience how it was relating to the audience how they were relating to me changed I noticed this in the feedback that I was getting I noticed this in

49:32 relation to whatever deals and referrals that came from it as a result of experiencing the emotions that way which was excitement it says among the many secret branches of knowledge possessed by the hermus was that known as mental transmutation which forms the subject matter of this lesson trans mutation is a term usually employed to designate the ancient art of the transmutation of metals particularly of the base Metals into gold the word transmute means to change from one nature form or substance into another to transform and accordingly mental transmutation means the art of changing and transforming mental States forms and conditions into

50:20 others so a belief is a condition someone says if I'm going to go teach these speed reading Workshops the condition I have is others relate to me in whatever way be it harmonious or inharmonious that's belief and based on that belief the behaviors the emotions and the experiences appear that way so by changing the belief or no longer identifying with that belief the whole experience actually ends up getting transmuted they say so you may see that the mental transmutation is the art of mental chemistry if you like the term a form of practical Mystic

51:06 psychology the first of the seven hermetic principles is the principle of mentalism the Axiom of which is the all is mind the universe is mental which means that the underlying reality of the universe is mine and the universe itself is mental that is existing in the mind of the all some refer to this as the dream of God God is dreaming the entire experience in which we all play a wonderful role in we can choose to play an active role in it and when we accept that reality is a certain way the way we imagine it to be we embody that state everything within awareness transforms to reflect that state it says we shall consider this

51:53 principle in succeeding lessons but let us see the effects of the principle if it be assumed to be true if the universe is mental in its nature then mental transmutation must be the art of changing the conditions of the universe or we could say so it appears that way because through the five senses is evidence what we once imagined says along the lines of matter force and mind so you see therefore the mental transmutation is really the magic of which the ancient writers had so much to say in their mystical works and about which they gave so few practical instructions and one of the reasons why I believe why is because we find Our Own

52:39 Way Ruben in that video shared his way I shared my way there are many ways of doing this Infinity ways of doing this choose a way that works ideally for you one of the ways that works really well for me is to go back to what I mentioned in the beginning the student and teacher are one if I go through an experience that I would label as challenging I acknowledge that I could transmute the challenging experience into a flow fun Blissful experience and just by suggesting that to myself prior I actually experience emotions that way related thoughts to be from that state behaviors accordingly and everything changing and then I go

53:25 and share it with others they say whatat did you imagine at that time and I say well I imagined something that would imply the Fulfillment what would that be that one day I would share this with others as a successful thing that happened and then it happens and here I am sharing the stories with you it says if all be mental then the art which enables one to transmute mental conditions must render the master the controller of material conditions as well as those ordinary called mental and I find that we get better at this with practice what was once extremely challenging became easier and then it became easier then it became effortless what was once considered impossible started to become easier and easier and

54:12 it became effortless and so I found that there's no limit to how good we can get at the art of mental transmutation it says not only made the m states of oneself be changed or transmuted by hermetic methods but also the states of others may be and are constantly transmuted in the same way usually unconsciously as in now is where all the power is one can subconsciously identify with beliefs from the past that are not in harmony with how they truly desire to be but they can also be aware of what when they're about to identify with it as they are the Observer of the objects

55:00 of experience as well as the objects of mental phenomena so they can choose what thoughts they identify with they can choose how they relate to their emotions they can change how they relate to their experiences and having the ability to choose this they become the conscious master and that results in their experiences reflecting by conscious choice as they say but often consciously by some understanding the laws and principles in case where the people affected are not informed of the principle of self- protection so self- protection the way I relate to this is your ability to be aware of what and how you are relating to the

55:47 day-to-day experiences every day we have an opportunity to do this as mentioned the teacher appears all the time in front of us it could be a person it could be environment it could be a circumstance I like how James Allen said it in as aan think he said circumstance do not make us they reveal us to ourselves which means that the outer experiences of Life provide an opportunity to learn grow and every moment is that opportunity and we take the opportunity by being aware of what we think how we emotionally relate and how we behave and that reveals what beliefs we're identified with and from there we can

56:32 apply the mental transmutation which is essentially reimagining it differently reimagining it ideally how you desire it to be so I trust to found this video to be helpful let's conclude this with an Autos suggestion to further encourage you can say I acknowledge Consciousness is the true reality from which all appears and appears animated through mind mind via imagination there are infinite vibratory States available with corresponding experiences and allow myself into the chosen state by accepting that I am that way now on the journey to actualizing the vision I'm able to depolarize and remain in my flow during seeming changes in appearances acknowledging that they

57:19 do not Define me as I Define Myself by what I'm conscious of being if you would like a copy of this mind map the link is in the description thank you very much for watching I'll talk with you soon take care
