“The sun god Ra was described as the ba which “came forth from Nun,” the ba “which Nun created.” In these terms, the ba is a potentiality which is actualized. According to these statements, Chaos produced Order. Nun, primordial Chaos, generated the god Ra who then made the ordered cosmos. This is actually extremely similar to science’s version of Big Bang theory. Randomness – primordial Chaos, formlessness or non-existence (non-being) – miraculously produced its opposite: a formed, ordered cosmos. In truth, science hasn’t moved on at all from Egyptian mythology. It has no better explanation for how the cosmos was produced than ancient Egyptian priests spinning mythological webs did.”

“Mathematics occupies exactly the same logical space as God. No proof of God has ever relied on observation or experiment. The existence of God, in philosophy, is defended via rational and logical arguments. All of these same arguments can be applied to mathematics. Mathematics and God go together with consummate ease. God is mathematics.”

“In the beginning, according to the Doctrine of Hermopolis, there was water, darkness, formlessness, and hidden powers. This is how the ancients understood the primeval Chaos into which the ordered universe was inserted through the actions of the gods. The Hebrew Book of Genesis is merely a variant of pagan Egyptian mythology. The Hebrew God is just Amun, Atum, Ptah or Thoth by another name. He collects all of the powers of the Ogdoad or Ennead into himself, but all the same factors and ingredients are still at play, and there is absolutely no sign of science, mathematics or philosophy. Do you see that the Bible’s Creation myth is of a very familiar nature? If the Book of Genesis were taught alongside Egyptian Creation myths, which long preceded it and set the ground for it, all the believers in the Bible would see that it’s just another story, another myth, and that Yahweh, the Hebrew God is no more real than any of the Egyptian deities. If Yahweh goes, so does his “son” – Jesus Christ! Christianity is just a myth cobbled together from Egyptian, Greek and Persian sources. It’s amazing how Abrahamists are unable to see that their entire religion is in fact derived from the pagan Egyptians.”

“Science says we are made of stardust. What better link could there be between the universe and us? We are literally made of the cosmos. Why would we would not expect the universe to affect us profoundly in all possible ways?”

“Pythagoras wanted to hear the Musica Universalis – the Universal Music, the Music of the Spheres. The greatest minds have always understood that they can listen to the universe. The universe is a life form, a living organism. Like each of us, it has an immaterial mind and a material body. Like us, it has an intelligence and a language. Like us, it speaks. It’s up to us to listen. If we do, everything will change. Isn’t it time for humanity to undergo its great metamorphosis? Don’t you want to embark on this greatest of all journeys?”

“It’s time to assume your glorified body, your celestial body, your radiant body, your spiritual body (soma pneumatikon) – the vehicle for your out-of-body experiences. When you attain your “diamond body,” you become one of “the immortals”. You are now one of the cloudwalkers. Pure mind is superconductive. It can never run down or degrade or experience any friction. Your eternal mind is a Golden Mind. It’s a Star Mind, it’s the Glory of the Whole Universe.”

“The Christian believers who read Dante’s masterpiece the Divine Comedy were much more interested in what he said about hell. Hardly anyone read his book on heaven. It’s punishment for the non-Christians that inspires Christians, not reward for Christians”

“Skeptics are always marked by their total lack of skepticism towards whatever position they are defending.”
― Steve Madison, Soul Science: Know Your Soul

“God is simply all souls together, while 'the Devil' is all souls apart (leading to conflict, hate and evil). Creation is what all souls together construct to explore their deepest nature and come to self-awareness. Souls start off united, and then create maximum disunity: the Big Bang. Then they dialectically work to come back into unity. They alienate themselves from themselves in order to understand themselves, to come to consciousness of themselves and their purpose and meaning, and then they return to themselves, but at a much higher level, a divine level. They have found themselves. They have come home. The broken mirror of God has reassembled and God can once again see its own reflection and know exactly what and why it is.”

“We once had a divine hemisphere, a hemisphere that linked us to the heavens. As the left hemisphere became more and more powerful, it suppressed the right hemisphere and the gods fell silent and finally departed. They abandoned us, humanity said. In fact, we abandoned them. Humanity has still not recovered from their loss. We disconnected ourselves from the numinous order and became mundane. We elevated he profane over the sacred and became hollow, empty and soulless. The world is miserable. Just look around you. Just look at yourself.”
― Steve Madison, When the Universe Spoke to Humanity: Humanity Before the Fall

“Why are most people miserable? It’s because they have no purpose, no objective, no sacred cause. Therefore, they find life meaningless and pointless. You cannot succeed unless you are a 'Why' person, always asking why you are here and why existence is possible at all. One you understand ontology, everything flows from that.”

“According to one Egyptian account, the formation of the world was the realization of a concept first developed within the mind of the Creator. Leibniz had a similar idea. He imagined God as a kind of super computer, calculating every possible world and scoring them all according to some divine scale or metric. Once the Creator had analyzed all possible worlds in his mind (all potentialities), he made actual the world that had scored highest and was thus the best of all possible worlds. If you think this world is bad, you should see the alternatives!”

“The soul is simply a transcendent quantum wavefunction of the mind that docks with the immanent quantum wavefunction of a spacetime body. Why would anyone find that baffling? One day, it will be regarded along the lines of 1 + 1 = 2. There will be children in the future who are taught this in primary school and who will never once doubt the existence of the eternal, monadic soul. It will be the most certain fact in their lives, with all the math to prove it.”

“The microcosm and the macrocosm are linked. You have to learn to retune into the universe. Ancient humanity knew how. We have forgotten what they learned. In fact, we have unlearned it. Let the universe in. Let it take the strain off your shoulders. Give the universe responsibility for your success in life. Don’t worry. It has the broadest possible shoulders. It can endure every stress and strain.”

“Did angels have wings, or did they have the power of flight, which was then represented by ancients in terms of wings? No one having an out-of-body experience has wings. They are not needed for flight.”

“Is this what you want to have written on your gravestone? - "I watched all the top-trending YouTube videos." Well done. Gold Star. Sad.”

“Human life on earth is like that of an egg turning into a caterpillar. Death is like the chrysalis stage, and resurrection delivers a radically different creature – the beautiful soul-butterfly.”

“The old God is dead. Long live the new God – all of us.”
