Dark Light Consciousness: Melanin, Serpent Power, and the Luminous Matrix of Reality

Rate this book
How to awaken the Ureaus--the serpent power of spiritual transcendence within each of us--and connect to the superconscious of the universe

• Reveals the biochemistry of how the body’s melanin provides the template for the subtle energy body or light body

• Shows how embracing the dark light consciousness of the awakened Ureaus opens a portal to the sacred darkness of the superconscious

• Provides illustrated instructions for meditation practices, breathing exercises, and yoga postures to safely awaken Ureaus/Kundalini energy

Within each of us lies the potential to activate a personal connection to the superconscious. Called “Ureaus” in ancient Egyptian texts and “Kundalini” in ancient Hindu yoga traditions, our innate serpent power of spiritual transcendence inhabits the base of the spine in its dormant state. When awakened, it unfurls along the spinal column to the brain, connecting individual consciousness to the consciousness of the universe enfolded within the dark matter of space. At the root of creativity and spiritual genius across innumerable cultures and civilizations, this intelligent force reveals portals that enfold time, space, and the luminous matrix of reality itself.

Combining physics, neuroscience, and biochemistry with ancient traditions from Africa and India, Edward Bruce Bynum, Ph.D., explores the ancient Egyptian science of the Ureaus and reveals how it is intimately connected to dark matter and to melanin, a light-sensitive, energy-conducting substance found in the brain, nervous system, and organs of all higher life-forms. He explains how the dark light of melanin serves as the biochemical infrastructure for the subtle energy body, just as dark matter, together with gravity, holds the galaxies and constellations together. With illustrated instructions, he shows how to safely awaken and stabilize the spiritual energy of the Ureaus through meditation practices, breathing exercises, and yoga postures as well as how to prepare the subtle body for transdimensional soul travel.

By embracing the dark light of the shining serpent within, we overcome our collective fear of the vast living darkness without. By embracing the dark, we transcend reality to the dimension of light.

This book, here! It became my Catcher In the Rye. There were so many times I re-read it and suddenly got an interesting take on an idea. It's stimulating when you have a book that challenges your perspective. I think that open-minded people will find it informative, to say the least. I enjoyed reading it so very much.

The spiritual and metaphysical properties of melanin cannot be understated. The elites understand this; do you? :)

This is a hotep book so of course I was not going to vibe with all of it, but I learned a lot about melanin and it's usefulness even outside of the human body. Gave me something to think about for sure.

Good book. Got the insight I was looking for about melanin. Reading can be challenging at some instances but if you take your time, you can understand or get the gist of what the author is conveying.

At some point we have to operate from power instead of using our power to perpetuate brokenness. There’s a whole lot of information here to raise your frequency, but this isn’t easy reading and a suspension of internalized racism has to be had.

One of the most comprehensive pieces of information for understanding the scientific mechanism of melanin. Also includes many meditation tools and breathing techniques which are very helpful. I recommend this book highly all the time to people who are serious about learning metaphysics!
