Placing ourselves again in "mind" mode, as we continue trying to understand how this game of life in which we are immersed works, philosophies and teachings appear that add pieces to the tetris of our particular compression. In this case, we are going to see a little part of those pieces just as the ancient Pythagoreans fit them.

When Pythagoras defined, for his students, in his teachings, his knowledge of how reality was formed, he described it as a “spiritual materialism, ” as he said, and knew, that all matter has consciousness, and, therefore, all Possible levels of existence, whether physical or not, are spiritual planes, simply at different degrees of vibrational condensation.

For the Pythagoreans, the existence of our reality is based on a trinity of equivalent and interrelated aspects: matter, movement and consciousness, and neither of these three aspects can exist without the other two. All matter is in constant motion and all matter has consciousness. In this and next articles I intend to transmit part of the information or knowledge of the Pythagorean school, and that is part of the metaphysical baggage of how the universe in which we exist is formed.

Monads, units of consciousness, primordial atoms

Pythagoras said that matter is composed of primordial atoms, which he called Monads. Those of you who have read the books of Jane Roberts and Seth, call the same concept " units of consciousness ." On the other hand, if you have read some quantum mechanics, also referring to the same concept, we talk about the smallest particles born from ether concentrations called carps, cesna points, myriads, etc., etc. These particles are the smallest possible parts with individual consciousness, and whose combination and grouping, in different forms, give rise to sub-quantum particles such as quarks, which give rise to electrons, protons and neutrons, which give rise to atoms, grouped together. in molecules, organized in cells, and manifesting everything that is alive on our planet.

Thus, from the beginning, the consciousness of these primordial atoms, monads or units of consciousness, exist as the fundamental building blocks of reality, the bricks that form everything we see and know.

Various subject classes

When the Pythagoreans began studying the subject, they realized that they could divide it into several classes. One, the primary, unmanifested matter, the same energy of the Source that encompasses everything and from where everything "comes out", then, a second class of matter-energy, the manifested, which composes the primary divisions of the Source, the cosmos or universes and everything in them is contained.

Thus, each cosmos or universe has an energy structure consisting of a series of planes or levels of different density, penetrating and overlapping those that are higher in vibration, with those that are lower in it. Following the law of the Octaves, or the law of seven, the structure of each cosmos is divided into 7 macro planes or frequency levels with different vibration density, and each level is in turn divided into seven sub-levels, making a total 49 levels within a first division by vibration frequency and energy composition (since each of these levels can be divided into seven, which can be divided into seven more, etc.).

The first macro-plane comprises the sub-levels of 1-7, the second of 8-14, the third of 15-21, the fourth of 22-28, the fifth of 29-35, the sixth of 36-42 and the seventh from 43 to 49. Currently, our solid and physical reality that we know is the material reality of the densest plane of all, the number 49. Each of those planes differs only in the energetic composition of the primary units that form it, its duration, movement and level of the monads or units of consciousness adapted to the vibration of the sub-plane where they manifest.

On the law of octaves, a reminder of a previous article:

Everything that happens in this reality, every event, situation, project, "thing", etc., has an energy process. Everything, to be able to manifest, complete, start and finish goes through some steps and stages, which, like we can identify them physically when we are involved in it (step 1, step 2, step 3, etc.), also We can identify the energy part of them, although a priori it is not so easy. But there can be nothing created, manifested, executed or carried out in our reality that does not follow an energetic process of steps from the beginning until the end.

This process is what is known as an octave. It is called octave because the energy steps or jumps that follow everything that exists to move from a state A to a state B are mainly seven. These steps, shorter or longer in duration, so that we all understand each other, are like musical notes, and so are explained for example in the teachings of Gurdjieff. Everything that begins begins in the energetic state or level that we can assign to the DO note, then it goes to a state that would be corresponding to the RE note, then to the MI, to the FA…. until it ends with the DO of the next octave. As you all know, musical notes each represent a different type of energy, a frequency, a vibrational state, hence they are so useful for us to study the octaves of which everything that happens in life is composed.

Matter Combination

Since, basically and to make it simple, there are those 49 main levels from the highest level to the lowest level, we can Define 49 types of conscious matter in motion as the basis for the structure of that cosmos, a different type of energy for each level.

When a universe is born, so that a lower plane can be created inside from a higher plane, simply following the processes of manifestation of the Law of the Octaves, the energy-matter-consciousness of a plane is projected towards the next one, changing state, density, vibration and composition, and generating a new substrate so that life in any of its physical or non-physical manifestations can occur. Thus, for plane 2 to form, it is the primary units of plane 1 that densify an order of magnitude and modify its vibrational characteristics to form the next plane or evolutionary level. To explain it in broad strokes, in order for the physical plane to exist, it has first had to project from an ethereal plane and it is the etheric matter changing state that then forms the physical matter, in turn, this, the ethereal one, has had to be born from the energy projection from the emotional plane, and this in turn, from the mental plane, and thus towards the origin of all.

The names for the seven densest planes differ greatly according to the esoteric olive school of knowledge you follow, so I personally name them as I learned them at the time:

43- the divine or divine plane, 44- the monadic or anupadaka plane, 45- the nirvanic or themic plane, 46- the plane of the mind, 47- the mental plane (includes the causal plane as part superior of the same), 48- emotional plane and 49 physical plane (includes the ethereal plane as the upper part of it).

Spherical planes

These planes and levels are spherical. Once he asked one of the guides with whom we talked from time to time in regression sessions that there was no square planet, and he told us very seriously: because the "Creator" is not square :—). The Source is defined as an infinite sphere, the universes are spherical, the stars and suns are spherical, and the planes and dimensional and frequency levels that compose them are spherical as well. And all "occupy" the same space, because they are spheres of increasingly wide radius where the densest planes are contained within the more ethereal planes. When we talk about the different non-physical planes that surround our planet, the Earth, they always begin to be measured from the nucleus or center of it, so there are parts of the higher planes, which, “physically”, are found in the interior of the physical part of the Earth, and there are parts of those same planes, which "physically", go very far from it.

In the following article we go into more detail in the composition, according to the Pythagorean school, of the molecular and atomic structure of planes 43-49, which are basically where we now move as a planet and race in our current state of evolution. David Topí
