Brain Improvement and IQ

This article is written from a mystical perspective

Everything in existence is energy. From our physical body to the light produced by a man-made electric bulb to a galaxy and unknown heavens- everything is energy. This suggests that even the Supreme Being, Sseggulumanda, ITSELF is energy but energy in pure infinite consciousness.

Brought to physical reality, we recognize energy in thoughts, words and deeds. These have produced wars, bloodshed and deaths down history. Millions die. We see energy in erotic love from which you and me were born or created- all is energy.

When scientists speak of energy in quantities of joules or horsepower they mean an amount of energy perhaps needed to perform a task. That’s how they measure energy. In mysticism, we quantify energy in terms of retribution or karma but more so in terms of effect; What is the effect of an original amount and quality of energy generated? So in mysticism we not only speak of quantity but also the quality of energy so generated. Call it Good and Bad.

Every living being is a conscious energy called a consciousness. Its form may be that of an earthworm or a giant elephant. Many do not believe insentient living beings such as an amoeba bears consciousness. Every living being is consciousness (spirit) and therefore carries a degree of awareness and understanding. Call it instinct or intellect. It is that consciousness that lives or dwells in a specific form and enables that form to grow, and consequently die. Death is just a transition from a given form to another. Therefore, conscious energy never dies. It is immortal. What dies is the shroud of a combination of elements put together by the conscious energy (spirit) at the time that conscious energy desired to manifest in the physical worlds- through procreation or birth. Each conscious energy or spirit dwells in a given body for as long it chooses unless if it is forced or compelled to quit that form. In that case, the one responsible for forcing it out of its body commits murder. Nature has it own way of compelling conscious energy from a given body; natural death of the body.

Many humans do not seem to realize that by beating a mosquito they force a conscious energy (spirit) to unwillingly quit its then destroyed form thereby terminating its lifespan prematurely. How many fishes, birds, reptiles, four footed creatures, insects and plant life do we force out of their dwelling forms every day? In the panorama of life, living beings daily continuously murder each other in the battle of survival. This is the grand play of consciousness often referred to as the trick of the negative influence in which gazillions of energy consciousnesses (spirits) are kept prisoners on the non-ending vicious cycle of re-embodiment.

No conscious energy (spirit) escapes from that play of consciousness mainly because every living being is a player in that game. The majority never awaken to the fact that for as long as they participate in this game they remain ignorant of their incarceration. They have become mesmerized by the sensual pleasures of this never-ending game. So they are recycled every time they leave or are forced out of a given physical form. Yet they never awaken to this fact.

The purpose of life is that the spirit or conscious energy awakens (evolves) from the level of consciousness at which it came into life to states of higher levels. In so doing, it builds up its brain apparatus until it reaches a point when its existence is ruled not by the dictates of the imprisoned mind (ignorance) but by an awakened mind. An awakened mind simply means an improved state of awareness and consciousness. The higher the consciousness gained, the mind-spirit gains love, wisdom and power. With that love, it embraces all life forms as its kith and kin. With that wisdom it applies that power only for constructive purposes that benefit the general good without having to commit murder where it can avoid it. Hence the mystics advise their devotees to depend on a lacto vegetarian diet which is usually obtained without bloodshed and slaughter or killing. If it were possible for the evolved conscious energy in form of humans to dwell here without having to eat physical food, the mystics would have advised them to do so. And there are mystics who reached that state.

As matters stand today, dependence on the mineral and plant kingdom is the only way of living where one incurs the least amount of murder when one considers the number of active elements in the plant kingdom compared to those in the remaining four visible kingdoms of nature on this planet (humans, animals, egg-layers and insects).

The development of the physical forms has been a slow but steady process through billions of years of evolution from the point of creation of the original forms at that which is called conscious energy (spirit) dwelling in forms other than pure light and celestial melody.

The growth of the human brain to present levels has been a long process through series of re-embodiments and experimentation as spirit has been evolving in the recognition and realization of the unity of all life. The more evolved life forms register higher forms of brain power or energy in terms of creativity. We call these the super-gifted ones. These individuals have a highly marked growth in their soul-conscience and consciousness. Next comes those with a developed degree of intelligence. We call these the genius. These individuals have a higher Intelligence Quotient. But between the latter and former, it is the former (the super-gifted) who have a higher degree spiritual growth and development and a higher moral value and comprehension of life’s value and divine intrinsic purpose. The third grade is that of what people call average individuals and so on and on down the ladder to what is called insentient living beings.

Originally, at the time of habitation of life on this planet the conscious energies (spirits) that had evolved upon other planets were sent to pioneer earth life in seven different forms, namely human souls, angels, elementals, animals, egg-layers and insects. The interesting aspect of it all is the fact that the conscious energy (spirits) in the mineral and plant kingdom came first in order to create that which became the core of the planet- carrying the vital two elements –namely earth and water as the anchor for all life on this planet.

When this panorama of life was showed to Charles Darwin, the image appeared to him in its upside down position that he failed to interpret it correctly. That is why his interpretation has become a topic of great contention- Did life begin by evolution or by creation? His interpretation depended upon his own degree of evolution at the time. This is the question that is today known as evolution and intelligent design. Evolution was and is both of the spirit within and the body without but the body cannot endure in the absence of the indwelling conscious energy (spirit). In the final analysis, it is actually the spirit that evolves so that the evolution of the body is but a corresponding byproduct of the spirit’s evolution or growth and development in consciousness. It is no different than when a poor man grows to become rich and wealthy; his environment also correspondingly changes; together with it, his IQ. Hence, to improve human brain and IQ, it is incumbent upon our leaders to first evolved to a higher degree of spiritual consciousness and to supplement our educational system with spiritual knowledge to begin with.

The development of IQ without corresponding SQ (Spiritual Quotient) is problematic. We see this in the development of dangerous science and technology that can be used to annihilate all human and animal life from this planet. God forbid.
