Lars Muhl - The Gate of Light: Healing Practices to Connect You to Source Energy

Lars Muhl was born in Aarhus, Denmark. For many years he was a successful singer-songwriter who, concurrently with his music, studied the worlds religions and esoteric knowledge. In 1996 he was struck down by an unexplained illness, which neither doctors nor alternative therapists could diagnose. For three years he was confined to his bed, unable to move. Through a friend, Lars was put in touch with The Seer who, through a single phone call, brought him back to life. This experience, and the revelations that followed from it, are described in three volumes of The O Manuscript. Today, Lars and his wife, Githa Ben-David, operate the Gilalai Institute of Energy and Consciousness.

They live in Denmark. For more information see:

Introduction

This is a little book that could make a big difference. It describes an ancient method of healing and of opening a gateway of light that was used in the Essene mystery school 2,500 years ago. Anyone with an open mind and heart can take advantage of this method, whether or not they subscribe to a religion or spiritual tradition. If you wish to adopt this method in your life, you must be willing to invest the time required to practise it seriously with dedication and devotion.

It is important to absorb the whole book and understand its message before beginning your practice. The text, which explains the philosophy behind the method, is not meant to be read in a hurry.

The book is the successor to my previous publication The Law of Light, which is the distillation of many years studying the Aramaic language and the secret teachings of Yeshua (Jesus). This time I focus on praxis practical spiritual work whose purpose, in this case, is to heal the whole self by connecting the individual with source energy, which might otherwise be described as the One, or the Divine. The Gate of Light is intended as a standalone of practical value to the conscientious seeker who knows nothing of my previous writings. It refers to the importance of preparatory shadow work (purification through contemplation, meditation and prayer), and I would suggest that any reader who seeks to follow my own path in this respect works closely with The Law of Light. However, if you have considerable experience of meditation or are accustomed to living prayerfully, you may feel you are ready to try the praxis outlined in this book more specifically the Chariot of Fire sequence, supplemented perhaps by the Heavenly Prayer and the Long Healing Prayer. Step-by-step guidance on the Chariot of Fire and the text of the Heavenly Prayer are given in Chapter Eight, which in many ways is the core of this book. The text of the Long Healing Prayer is reproduced in the concluding Coda.

Any praxis draws into itself the threads of the practitioners thoughts, emotions and life experiences. Connecting with the Source might sound like the shedding of individuality, and so in many respects this is an accurate description (it is certainly the shedding of ego, fear and blame), but in fact the process of connection is always going to be deeply personal. For this reason, I have given generous space in the book to my own experiences of loss and suffering and the deeply encouraging messages I received, amidst this spiritual turmoil, from the healing forces that surround and are within us all. I was able to attune myself to these energies and find deep healing. I hope and pray that you will do the same.

Where are you heading in your drunkenness, you people? Have you swallowed the doctrine of ignorance undiluted, vomiting it up already because you cannot hold it? Look up with the eyes of the heart if not all of you, at least those of you who have the power. The vice of ignorance floods the whole Earth and utterly destroys the soul shut up in the body, preventing it from anchoring in the havens of deliverance.

Corpus Hermeticum 7

I have visited thousands of places. I have wandered in endless deserts. I can now see how often I forsook my heart in favour of other places, things, ideas, trinkets or the company of others. All in the hope of finding some meaning, a little peace and confirmation that I was, after all, loved. All the while forgetting that everything I sought was to be found in the very heart I had forsaken.

We give in order to experience love. He who gives without love will not experience anything of significance.

CHAPTER ONE

The Big Open Moment

As a foretaste of the philosophy behind this book, let me start with certain axioms.

There is no such thing as coincidence; nothing is meaningless; everything is One. Suffering exists only where there is separation. In the light and sound of Unity everything is healed.

There has been a fear of Christianity for far too long in the West, alongside a belief that Church dogma adequately covers what Jesuss teachings have to offer. There are many who, in their frustration at not being able to find what they are looking for, reject the example of Christ because they dislike the context in which He is presented. As an alternative, many have searched for truth in Westernized traditions of the East for example, working on mindfulness without embracing Buddhism, or practising yoga without understanding the Vedic philosophy behind it.

No matter which aspect of a spiritual tradition strikes you as attractive, it is self-delusion to merely take that single, easily accessible aspect and discard the rest.

Doing this often means that the most precious part of a tradition is overlooked.

What if an accountant was asked to analyse a companys accounts in detail, but was given access only to a set of figures, and not the information used to reach them. What if a baker was asked to bake bread, but was given only one of the necessary ingredients. The result would be unsatisfactory. The same principle applies to esoteric Christianity, which builds on insights from Yeshuas Essene mystery tradition and offers a deep spiritual connection to the source of life. Whatever the specific aspect of a tradition you wish to explore, you have to be able to understand the whole. Its all or nothing. Yeshuas wisdom is a cohesive whole. We have deceived ourselves, and each other, into believing that a quick fix is possible and that, with the minimum of effort on our part, we can redeem ourselves existentially as well as spiritually. The result of this has been that we have completely lost the ability to contemplate what matters. Our patience lasts just long enough for us to read a posting on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. In fact, however, there is no shortcut to enlightenment.
