Connection

Connection is the Lightning Path term for what occurs when the Bodily Ego of the Physical Unit unites with Resident Monadic Consciousness or some higher level of the Fabric of Consciousness.

The opposite of Connection is Disconnection.

Syncretic Terms

Connection, Rebirth, being Born Again, gaining entrance into The Garden, entrance into The Kingdom of God or entrance into the Kingdom of Heaven, attainment of Christ Consciousness, Resurrection of Consciousness, Descent of the Holy Spirit, Descent of Consciousness, entry into the Holy of Holies, experience of the Numinosom (Jung, 1938: 6).

Notes

Connection with Consciousness is facilitated via proper Development of the Physical Unit, or by exploitation of available entheogenic substances designed to overcome damage experienced via Toxic Socialization.

On the LP, we say that connection is facilitated by the establishment of Right Thought, Right Action, and Right Environment. When the three Rs are established, alignment of the physical unit with Consciousness is complete and connection may occurs.

Proper development of the physical unit involves a socialization process that teaches, encourages, and facilitates right action, right thought, and right environment.

Connection is thwarted by Wrong Thought, Disjuncture, and the psychological, emotional, and physical Pathology that arises as a result of Toxic Socialization.

The process of Connection may be visually represented with the Water Glass Metaphor.

Connections may be characterized along four axis, these being quality, intensity (see Consciousness Quotient, duration, and content (Sosteric, MCD).

Neurological correlates of connection experiences are provided in Sosteric (S0A).

Connection with The Fabric (i.e. Consciousness) is the ostensible and overt goal of the Lightning Path, and all Authentic Spirituality. Where there is fear of persecution, connection is the esoteric/hidden goal.

Mystical practice is personal pursuit of connection.
