The Greatest Mystery
There seems to be some questions about my statement that there is no such thing as a first cause. Let me say a few words and then if there are additional questions feel free to ask.
First let me again state that I do not expect anyone to believe what I write just because I say it. Do not accept anything unless it feels right to your own soul and mind.
The beginning or no beginning to existence is perhaps the greatest mystery there is but logic and intuition can take us to certain realizations.
Some say there was a first cause. Let us go with this and see where it takes us.
If there was a first cause this means that before the first cause happened there was no cause. If there was no cause then there was no effect either. If there were no cause and no effect anywhere then there was nothing everywhere. For something to be created there has to be a cause that is already in existence. Without cause and effect nothing exists.
If nothing exists and there is no cause then there can be no effect of creation for creation demands a cause.
If there ever was a time that there was no cause and effect and no creation then it would be impossible for us to be here today. Nothing cannot create something.
Because of the very fact that we are here we can deduce that cause and effect have always been.
All that which has form has a beginning and an end to that form. Someday the universe will fold up and return to its essence but it will not return to nothingness or a state of no cause. Cause and effect will still exist and will create another universe after a period of pralaya.
A reader wants to know how something can exist beyond time and space.
An idea exists beyond time and space. An idea never had a beginning nor will it have an end nor does its essence occupy space or have a form. An idea incarnates into form. You are an idea in the mind of God.
The fifth plane up is the atmic, the plane where ideas are accessed. It has no time and space as we understand them. Time and space co-exist with this plane but are not a part of it. When an idea is not in physical form then it dwells apart from time but when it manifests in form it is subject to time and space.
Question: Is it then possible to say that “We” all humans are that God who started the whole creation? Therefore, the universe will never fold up again and have to start over????
JJ: We are a part of the body of God that created all things but where there is a beginning there will be an end. There is no end to beginnings and endings, however.
Question: Does God retrieve lessons, does he seek further wisdom? How to do better next time? This cycle around, which lesson or what point of evolution does God seek to attain? I imagine every level has a theme.
JJ: Yes, God seeks to progress. The best way to get hints as to what God wants to accomplish is to look within ourselves at what we want to accomplish – for we are in the image of God.
I would say that one of the main goals for God and man is the enhancement of the quality of relationships of one life toward another. God, the whole, wants to get closer to the parts, you and me.
There’s more of course, but this is food for thought.
Hints on Creation
Concerning that which gives rise to existence there are some good hints in the Immortal books. I’ll repeat one here.
John sipped his coffee, “My time is short so we need to get on with our lesson. Have you discovered who or what you are yet?”
“I think I have either found the truth or am close to it,” I said, leaning toward John. “When scientists examine matter they say that they cannot find proof that solid particles exist. All they can seem to find on the smallest level is wavelengths in motion. If all these wavelengths were to be stilled, the universe would virtually disappear. If the motion of the wavelengths that make me would be stilled, then I would probably cease to exist. Therefore, the real me has to be motion or action of some kind.”
“That’s very good,” said John. “Coming to this point is a milestone, but you are not there yet. Answer me this: What is it that is in motion and what is the force creating the motion?”
I thought a moment. “If there is no such thing as solid matter then nothing is in motion, if that is possible. I guess the force propelling the wavelengths is pure energy.”
“But,” said John, “if there is no solid matter, then nothing is in motion, as you say. Therefore, does it not stand to reason that energy is not required for motion since nothing is really in motion?”
“Maybe I was right after all,” Elizabeth chuckled. “I said half joking that we were nothing and perhaps I was right.”
“As far as the material plane goes, you are correct,” said John. “But from the greater reality you are a great something. That something which creates all motion in the universe is the great mystery. Energy is not the answer because in reality there is really nothing solid in motion.
“Now I will give you two major hints. First, in my hand I have a pen. Now I will take this pen and throw it on that sofa over there.”
John threw the pen on the sofa.
“Now, what made that pen fly over to the sofa?”
“Obviously you did,” I said
“And who or what am I? And don’t say John.”
“So the real you threw that pen?”
“Yes. That which is the real me made the pen move. This is the first major hint.

In this explanation, how is God anything more than just a placeholder for something you don’t understand? It sounds like you’re just arbitrarily inserting God as an exception to the rule of cause and effect, not because you know God exists, but because you are sentimentally attached to the idea.
I’d say it is much more likely that you are sentimentally attached to the idea of being a contrarian.
Yes, I do like being a contrarian to bullshit, and there’s an abundant amount of it on this website. Tell me something I don’t know. What you won’t tell me though, is that I am wrong.
You are totally wrong. It must be frustrating that after years of attacking me that you have not been able to prove me wrong on one teaching.
It must be frustrating that after decades of writing millions of words, you have not been able to prove yourself right on a single thing.
I, however, do know that I am right. Want to know how?
I’ve been proven right on a number of things. I predicted Y2K would be no big deal and that the world would not end or have a big change in 2000 or 2012. My book The Molecular Relationship first written in 1979 foreshadowed the string theory. I have shown many how to see their etheric bodies. If you are right about there being no divine creator I would like to see your proof.
I predicted those things too, but predicting that doomsdayers will be wrong is like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow morning. You’d have to be really dim to even take such people seriously in the first place, let alone let that set the bar for your credibility.
String Theory had its origins in the 1960s and 70s. You didn’t foreshadow anything that wasn’t already in the scientific zeitgeist. New Agers do this all the time. “I knew it all along” is a very popular New Age slogan, only ever used after the fact of some new discovery.
Your teachings on the etheric body take advantage of people’s gullibility and the afterimage illusions of the eye. You even tell people in your exercises on that to not move their eyes. It’s a charlatan’s trick. I can see the “etheric body” too if I sit still and look at the same thing for more than a minute.
I know I am right for the same reasons you say you are right: study and contemplation.
