The Dimensions and Where They Are in Us

What is a Dimension?

A dimension is a Level of Consciousness. There exist as many dimensions as there are levels of consciousness.

In each one of the unfoldings, the number of laws and the materiality is increased.

Seven Basic Dimensions Are Known in Nature

1. First Dimension

Length, or distance between two points. The Tritocosmos, or world of each one of the Atoms. World of the mono-cerebrated and bi-cerebrated beings without a spinal column. All distances. Linear measurements: meter, kilometer, vara, yard, cubit, etc., etc.

2. Second Dimension

Surface, or the displacement of a line in space. All surfaces or surface measurements: square meter, square foot, square vara, square kilometer, hectare, fanegada, etc., etc.

These are all the surfaces of things or volumes. And they are given by two dimensions: length by width, or by height. Their measurements are expressed thus: m², km², hm², etc.

In this dimension we find our Personality and all of our superficiality, the appearances of volumes, the physical forms.

In this dimension we find all the bi-cerebrated beings with a spinal column, and they see the world as superimposed planes. Lacking the third, they cannot yet self-realize themselves.

This is the world of the 96 laws. And it is called Limbo, or the Hall of Hell.

3. Third Dimension, or that of Volume

All bodies or things with organic or inorganic physical presence, with three dimensions:

  • Length.

  • Width.

  • Height.

Here we find our Physical Body, and all the measurements are cubic: m³, cm³, dm³, hm³, etc., etc. As we can appreciate, in this dimension are contained the two previous ones.

Here dwell all the three-cerebrated bipeds, or rational animals — mistakenly called men — with their three brains. But, because they have the three brains, they can self-realize themselves, humanizing themselves and de-animalizing themselves, in some of their 108 existences as humans.

This Dimension is managed by 48 laws, and we find them in each of the cells, represented in the 48 chromosomes.

The importance of the physical or material body lies in the fact that it is a condenser of Creative Sexual Energy, and it can transmute it upon uniting with another Earth of opposite symbol — male with female.

4. Fourth Dimension, or Time

It is the duration of our physical body, or the duration of any volume. Here we find our Vital Body, also subject to the 48 laws of the physical world. It is the superior part of our matter. (It is seen tetra-dimensionally.) This body represents our Waters, which are 90% of our physical body. The time to which we refer is that which mediates between birth and death.

In these Waters we find all the metallic atoms of our seminal system, contained within the auric field. And these are what we need to regenerate and to liberate.

5. Fifth Dimension, or Eternity

In defining Eternity, we also encounter time, in continuous form, without beginning or end. We thus see that the previous dimension is contained in this one. For this reason we find here the past, the present, and the future in continuous form. We see that everything that has a past will have a future, and this prevents us from living the present from instant to instant.

In this dimension we find two worlds: the Astral World and the Mental World, with their corresponding bodies, which manage different functions and have their own characteristics:

  • The Astral Body manages 24 laws, is of molecular nature, and is the Fire or desire; it manages our emotional world. It is controlled by the Salamanders of Fire.

  • The Mental Body manages 12 laws, is of atomic nature, and corresponds with Air or wisdom, and originates our intellect — the way of thinking of each one of our atoms. It is controlled by the Sylphs and Sylphides of Air.

6. Sixth Dimension: Reality or Truth

Here we find that which is, has been, and shall be — the planets of the Christ, the electromagnetic worlds. We also find two different levels, which are:

  • The Causal World, or that of the Conscious Will, where we find the Body of the Will, governed by six (6) laws, of electrical nature, formed by all the electrons of our atoms. It represents our Verb, or Creative Sexual Energy, and all creations. It is the human soul.

  • The Buddhic World, or that of Consciousness, where we find the Buddhic Body, governed by six (6) laws, of magnetic nature, formed by all the protons of the atoms (the reason for being of the Being). This body is upright; it did not fall. It is the Divine Soul.

7. Seventh Dimension, or Great Reality

Here is the world of Light, or Atmic world; here we find ourselves with our Innermost, subject to three (3) laws. It is of photonic nature, the lowest to which our Being can come, for He comes from the world of the Spirit. It is the Christic principle in each one of us. He is our particular Warrior. The Atmic Body also did not fall; it is upright in each one of us.

As we can see, to the measure that we ascend in the dimensions, they are lighter. The natures: cellular, etheric, molecular, atomic, electronic, protonic, and photonic.

Where They Are in Us

The dimensions in ascending form, and the seat of the Dimensions in the Centers of the Human Machine.

Let us study this carefully:

Each Dimension is a level of Consciousness. To the measure that we go on recovering the Waters, the level of that Consciousness goes on rising through the spinal medulla, vertebra by vertebra and body by body.

Each of the bodies manages a different dimension. Without having created a determined body, it is not possible to manage a determined dimension.

The raw material for the creation of any of the bodies is the Creative Sexual Energy. This energy is found contaminated by the different I-s that manifest themselves in us day by day. Therefore, the energy of each day must be decontaminated by working daily.

The bodies are created in the sexual practice (Birth). We work during the day balancing centers through self-observation, preventing the I-s from exhausting the energy, so as to be able to dispose of Creative Sexual Energy for sexual transmutation. At night we copulate to fix the energy saved.

If we understand that each body has its own Waters or Mercury, and that each one must pass through its own process, we shall comprehend that the ascent in the levels of Being is slow and progressive.

The conquest of the dimensions permits us to govern them with a lesser number of laws each time. This conquest is made in the Abyss, by working with our own sexual energy, extracting the light or wisdom from the darkness.

With the work in the Three Factors all the conquest of the Dimensions is carried out:

  • Death allows us to liberate Consciousness and purify Creative Sexual Energy.

  • Birth in sex permits us the creation of the Existential Bodies of the Being.

  • Sacrifice for Humanity permits the de-egoization and the awakening of Love, which is the only law of the Absolute.

Conclusions

  • It is not possible to ascend in the Superior Dimensions without eliminating the heavy and grotesque elements of our personality.

  • It is not possible to have real representation in a Dimension without having created the corresponding Body.

  • We came to the planet Earth to self-realize ourselves and to attain full Consciousness. This is only possible by descending into the Infra-dimensions, where 97% of our Essence or Consciousness is trapped.

  • Without working upon ourselves it is not possible to create anything.

  • It is also necessary to know the methods to go on verifying these dimensions while we are making the diverse creations:

To go from the third dimension to the fourth, the Jinn states are used.

To go from the third dimension to the fifth, Astral Projection is used.

To go from the third dimension to the sixth and seventh, Meditation is used.

It is necessary to practice these methods in order to verify and know in a direct form these dimensions.

In each one of the unfoldings, the number of laws and the materiality is increased.
