None of the keys are solved with black and white answers alone. They must all be solved by reaching a new level of understanding.

The black-and-white part of the first key is that the key word is decision. Now we must look at and understand decision in a deeper way than the average person thinks of it.

There is a link between the power of decision and releasing the power of God within you.

There is a difference between decision and reaction. Reaction follows the line of least resistance. Decision will often follow the line of most resistance. Give examples of the difference. Some apparent decisions of all people (including myself) are reactions.

How is decision related to "WHO and/or WHAT YOU ARE?" Is this the true reason you are different from every other human being?

The key to true enlightenment is personal contemplation. Each key requires a certain amount of this. After you pass through a certain number of them you will see the wisdom of it.

Your thoughts on judgment were good. I will add this.

There are two sides to judgment.

  1. First there is the limiting judgment. The father who tells his son "You will never amount to anything!" is making a limiting judgment. This is negative and the reason that most people are afraid of the word. This type of judgment is based in illusion and a desire for power of self.
  2. Then there is the reality judgment made without bias or illusion. This judgment speaks to the soul and causes an expansion of consciousness if it is received. This judgment is based on a desire to expand the power of the whole.

Going back to the Bible again, the "Judges" in the days of Moses were called Gods, or Eloheim, the same title as given to the maker of heaven and earth. This is because they judged and made decisions.

Keep in mind that the middle way cannot be found through a black and white formula. The mid way point between the swings of a pendulum is slightly different from the point of rest when the pendulum is still because each swing as a little different arc as it is slowed down by friction. Just as the middle point between the swings is close to the point of stillness so is the correct path usually one of moderation. But keep this in mind, Correspondences are not always exact, only guides. There are times that the middle way will be an extreme. There is no written law to find it. The only way to find it is to contemplate what you find without with the chords of your soul and make a judgment. After you have made a judgment and a decision to follow that judgment the exactness of the middle way will be revealed as a point of precise truth.

The source of my knowledge that is not readily available to others is:

The true work of women in relation to Christ was not properly recorded because of the prejudice and ignorance of the early Christians. Also much of what was written shortly after the crucifixion was altered, destroyed or hidden.

Male and female energy is equal in importance, but different in delivery. Radiant energy is male and magnetism is female. Radiance is easy to observe. Magnetism is invisible, yet gives form to the whole universe. Mankind did not even realize that magnetism existed until recent years. About this same time we started contemplating the power of the female mystique.

In ages past the female energy did its work, but was overlooked. In the coming age it will be acknowledged and glorified.

You asked some very intelligent questions and I will give you my answers:

  

Question:  What is the ultimate nature of matter?

Answer:  There is no such thing as solid matter. All the universe is composed of a single wavelength manifesting as infinite wavelengths. A wavelength has a top and bottom or is divided into positive and negative or male and female. Thus the ultimate nature of matter is the Male-Female Principle.

  

Question:  Was there ever a time when matter did not exist?

Answer:  There is no time without matter. Therefore there was not a time when matter did not exist from our point of view.

  

Question: Why does time flow?

Answer:  Time is a measure of the motion of matter. Time flows because matter seems to move. From a higher reality neither time nor matter exists.

  

Question:  May time and space be discontinuous?

Answer:  Time cannot exist without space. Space cannot exist without form. Form cannot exist without matter of some kind. If there is time there must be space and if there is space there must be time.

  

Question:  Is a universe possible in which laws are different?

Answer:  Some laws as we know them demonstrate differently in different dimensions and universes, but there are some laws or principles that are the same everywhere. One of them is this. Form can only be created by the interplay of male-female energies.

  

Question:  Is thought possible without language?

Answer:  Thought as humanity defines it is impossible without language of some kind. Keep in mind that there are languages that exist that are not defined in this world in which we live. Consciousness, however, is possible without language. There are lives in the universe so high that they are beyond either language or thought, but no life is beyond consciousness.

  

Question: Are there parts of nature forever beyond our detection?

Answer:  There is nothing that exists and is real that is beyond eventual detection. There are things beyond our present ability to detect.
