Our Values
The Academy of the Cosmic Thread is foremost a Sacred School, a place to learn, grow and become something new. What is a Cosmic Thread? The term Cosmic Thread is from the Astronomers at The Australian National University’s report of a textile that forms the fabric of the Universe…”What we have discovered is evidence for the cosmic thread that connects us to the vast expense of the Universe.” They have discovered proof of a vast filament of material that connects our Milky Way Galaxy to nearby clusters of galaxies, which are similarly interconnected to the rest of the Universe, The Cosmic Thread that Binds.
We are also that Cosmic Thread. All spiritual traditions in their unique culture and language spoke of the Cosmic Thread. St. Paul said, “It is I, but not I, but the Christ within.” Hermès Trismegistus said, “As above, so below, so within, so without, as the universe, so the soul.” Plato following Socrates, expresses the mystery of Beauty, “It is an everlasting loveliness which neither comes nor goes, which neither flowers nor fades, for such beauty is the same on every hand, the same then as now, here as there, this way as that way."
These quotes from three distinct times, languages and cultures refer to that profound understanding of the journey within. The Academy of the Cosmic Thread continues those paths yet brings it into twentieth first century language and culture, each of us is a Cosmic Thread that Binds weaving our pattern into the woven Tapestry of the Life. We begin by removing our limitations and our narrow understanding of what we think of ourselves, others and the universe. We are all magnificent Cosmic Threads within. As we discover this, the Cosmic Thread weaves itself into a vast and mysterious woven pattern creating love, consciousness and Beauty.
ACT focuses on the experience and unique path of each of its students. We all come from unique histories, karmas, and conditions. We are all programmed by a society that is limited by its own perspective and conditioning. What is not taught is the path to eternal consciousness. That is the quality of the Cosmic Thread that Binds. Our minds are limited by our rational brains trying to comprehend a world moving faster and faster into something that no longer can be understood by the rational mind. That may seem frightening to some, but for others, there's a creative explosion of something completely new. Throughout history some have known the mysteries buried with the human mind and soul. A 21st century St.Paul would say, "It is I, but not I, but the Cosmic Thread within."A 21st century Hermès Trismegistus would say, “It's all one,” and a 21st century Socrates would say, “Beauty is eternal .” We encouraging students to move beyond their rational mind and enter the depths within.
The three western teacher’s quotes from describe the pinnacle of human consciousness. St. Paul captured the simplicity of Jesus's teachings. Hermès described enlightenment and Plato with magnificent prose focused on the feminine mysteries. The purpose of their language was to inspire, to direct their students to search within. The first step is to understand. The second step is to experience it yourself. At ACT, we do both. We inspire and instruct, but more than anything, we give techniques, meditations, visualizations, breath work, sound work, and painting images so that the student can experience it themselves. The twelve major expressions are designed to help students choose which stream feels aligned to their expression. at the moment we are offering three expressions, more will come and once we are free to be together, classes will be offered in the Sierra Nevada Foothills, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Weekends workshops will be offered in the Sierra Nevada Foothills.
In these times, a rational understanding is limited. We need more than a physical, emotional or rational explanation to explain and comprehend this vastly complex world we all find ourselves. AtACT, we reach deeper within to the very root of our being. We have 3 sessions designed for these times. All are available on Skype, for further information please email .moc.liamg%40daerhtcimsoca
There are Sacred Sounds that every culture has utilized for healing, ritual, celebration and worship. In this session, we focus on sounds that transform our energy field.
The balance between the physical, emotional and mental bodies is the first step. Once there is a reasonable balance, we are free to move deeper within to the mysteries of our own being. Each session is different depending on the needs of the students. We prefer to work in groups. The groups energy field even though separated by physical distance can be a powerful force.
Each chakra has its unique vibration, frequency and sound. Our personality vibrates at the lower three charkas, the Base, Sex and Solar Plexus. These lower three chakras contribute to our surviving and functioning in this world and our relationship with others. The Fourth Charka, the Heart is the first major transformation. The Fifth Charka, the Throat, is the center for creativity. The Sixth Chakra, the Third Eye, is the vision into the higher dimensions. The Seventh Chaka, the Crown, is the vision of Light itself. In these sessions, we lift our awareness through visualizations and sound work from the lower three to the higher four.
The journey from the head to the heart should not be difficult, but for us living in the 21st Century, it is a most perilous path. Why you may ask? We have been trained since birth to focus on mental agility which is what we need to survive this world. To drop into the mystery within the Heart, the Pearl of Great Price, the Jewel within the Lotus Blossom, the Spark of the Divine, is to experience the consciousness of the eternal realms. In these sessions, we move with both visualizations and sound to help each student drop from the head to the mysteries of the heart.
