Reincarnation or ascending method? Part 3

Descending curve in the process of spiritual perfection 

In Master Elahi's University of the Perfection Process teachings, each person's soul consists of two main parts. The human or basharic soul has, through a long and complex process, left behind the mineral, plant, and animal phases and, together with genetic influences and some of the seven factors of creation, has formed an intellectual magnetic field capable of reconstructing a human physical body from chromosomal information, thus securing its biochemical life. 

On the other hand, an extraordinary phenomenon known as the heavenly soul, responsible for thought and creativity, is directly created by God. This soul has a permanent connection with the origin of creation due to the existence of a particle called the "divine particle".

Whenever this soul is to experience an earthly life, according to the data of its karma system, one of the Basharic (human) souls formed on earth is reserved for it. The beyond heavenly soul knows which Basharic (human) soul belongs to him.

This Basharic (human) soul, together with other effects, immediately creates a body during the fertilization phase. This body, which is in the womb, is supported by the same heavenly soul, which must remain in the afterlife until the end of the pregnancy.

At the moment of birth, the celestial soul merges with the Basharic soul of this newborn child and together they will form a true self (TS) through a complex process of dominance. This process is confirmed and completed with the first cry of the baby.

We will discuss the dominance processes in future articles. The present purpose is to present the content of Master Elahi's teachings in a completely simple way so that the basis of the mechanism is understandable to all.

Since the Heavenly soul was created from the Origin of Creation, and due to the fact that planet Earth is at a low level in terms of distance from the Origin of Existence, Master Elahi called this process of dominance "Descending Course of the Soul" or simply "Descending Curve".

Ascending curve in the process of spiritual perfection 

However, the heavenly soul is connected through the human soul with the physical body in the material world. This means that the phase of the descending curve has passed. But this descending course must have a special reason behind it, otherwise a futile action would have taken place, and for those who believe in a perfect God, as well as for rational and reasonable people, it is not conceivable that God would carry out absurd actions.

With an in-depth study in the teachings of the Master, we find that the reason for the formation of a system consisting of a Basharic (human) and a heavenly soul, namely a "true self" (TS), plus a physical body, is due to the fact that each of these components has certain tasks.

-The body is responsible for sending the information from the environment received through sensory organs to the true self and for receiving the instructions of the true self.

-The Basharic soul is responsible for instinctive actions. In general, it is responsible for the biological activities of the body.

-The heavenly soul is the essential part of the system. It deals with thinking and creativity and is the one who must carry out the process of perfection. 

It is important to note that the Basharic soul and its body together form a primary system that can live on without a heavenly soul, while a heavenly soul can never have biological life on earth without this system. 

Therefore, the point is that the heavenly soul forms a much more extensive system through its connection with this system, which gives it the possibility to become familiar with earthly events and thus enable the completion of its perfection.

Regarding this connection, it should be remembered that it is possible that some relatively advanced souls may be allowed to complete the rest of the perfection process in the hereafter.

Although the process of soul perfection is always associated with small advances and regressions, generally moves towards the perfection of the soul. 

However, this process is called the "ascending course of the soul" because it starts in such a low-value place like planet Earth and leads to an incredibly high value place like the origin of creation.

Another reason why Master Elahi (Ostad Elahi) has called this process an ascending process is that the soul must not return to its previous phase. The only exception is in very rare cases where a very defective soul (true self) is temporarily connected to the corpse of a plant or animal. This leads to the elimination of the soul's faults and thus to the progress and ascension of the soul, because this punishment has a pedagogical aspect.

Another important issue in this respect is that the four main soul groups, namely mineral, plant, animal and Bashar, never return to their subordinate levels and phases. For example, the soul of a plant will never return to the mineral phase after death, but will either enter a more experienced and powerful soul group in the same phase, or if it is in the final stage of the plant phase, it will enter a group that is to produce the next generation of a primitive animal.

Likewise, a Basharic (human) soul, consisting of a series of homologous and analogous perfect animal souls and some of the effects of the seven factors of creation, will not fall into the animal phase because, scientifically speaking, a strong magnetic field is not attracted to a weak magnetic field, but can be affected by it.

Turning Point

In the human phase, which is regarded as the fifth phase, the soul often makes mistakes in dealing with the difficulties and trials of its earthly life and thus enters the wrong path, to which the karma system reacts, which can therefore produce a temporary step backwards.

Some of these people have been so evil in their various earthly lives that they have lost all the possibilities and privileges that normally all people have in their life on Earth and so get themselves into an extremely difficult situation.

It is only in such a critical situation that many of these fallen souls will realize that they have lost almost everything, have wasted time and that time is almost up. In this situation, almost all these people want to change the direction of their life with all their heart. This strong desire moves the unshakeable help of God. 

This point of decline, where every person becomes aware of his or her dangerous situation and therefore decides to change the direction of life to the path of ascent, is called the turning point.

With these brief explanations, we can easily see that, what Master Elahi's teachings on the perfection of the soul offer us, is completely different from the reincarnation theory or similar theses, and while does not contain the usual shortcomings of reincarnation, is able to describe logically, reasonably, and scientifically all the stages of soul perfection.

Reincarnation or ascending method? Part 2

As already mentioned, reincarnation has two main weaknesses. 

Firstly: The life of the soul is unlimited in reincarnation.

Secondly: After separation from the previous body, the soul can immediately enter the objects or bodies that are at a lower level of soul maturity. 

This means that, for example, when an animal dies, its soul can immediately enter the body of a flower and thus survive. This theory has two main drawbacks:

 

1-No living being can exist without a soul, and when an object has a special soul, it is impossible for another free soul to occupy this body because the soul of this body defends itself and according to the law of "loss-rejection", repels this invading soul.

In this context it should be noted that the effects of souls on each other are possible but differ from this category.

2-Secondly, an animal soul that has gone through the maturing process of the plant phase does not need to return to this phase, because the path of perfection means the gathering of experience—just like a student who does not need to return to primary school.

Even if I assume that such an incarnation is meant in reincarnation theory with the occupation of the soulless body, at the moment when the two souls leave the two bodies, the above mentioned fundamental problem still exists. 

Basically, a soul from a higher stage has more extensive power and knowledge than the souls belonging to the lower stage. Therefore, returning to the previous situation is absurd and futile, since the creator has absolute rationality.

Moreover, as already mentioned in the first part of the article, this hypothesis lacks a precise definition of the intermediate world and of the specific time axis for this process, which leads to further dilemmas of this theory.

Successive lives through ascending method

It should be noted that the aim of this article is to give the public only a superficial understanding of the science that Master Elahi provided in connection with the creation of the universe and its mechanism. Therefore, I will refrain from in-depth scientific discussions and related graphics.

To read scientific articles, please refer to our articles in the “Integrated Sciences section”.

By publishing his doctrine of spiritual perfection through the ascending method, Master Elahi has once and for all solved the complex problems discussed above and answered the questions in a reasonable and acceptable manner.

Very briefly and in summary, it can be said that in this worldview, each earthly soul is involved in the creation of its own body. The logical, plausible and scientific reason for this is that at the end of each maturing process, at each stage and phase, this earthly soul collects certain experiences, so that it can then separate from this body with the power it has acquired. Now, this soul that has been freed in this way is able, through a special process, to participate in the creation of a new body on a higher level. To do so, however, it must join the special soul group of higher free souls that can receive it. This group of several more or less equal souls forms a new soul with greater power and knowledge. 

It is important to note that a soul is under no circumstances attracted by a lower-level soul or group of souls. This is why we call this process of soul maturation an ascending method that ultimately leads to the creation of a powerful perfect soul, which Master Elahi called the Basharic soul.

The phases of the mental perfection process are:

Mineral, plant, animal, Basharic and human phase. Each phase consists of innumerable levels, which the souls have to pass through. The maturing process is therefore continued in sequence, step by step and in phases.

Since the souls, for special reasons, among others due to the environmental conditions, run through several parallel paths from the mineral phase on, at the end of the animal phase, under the influence of the seven creation factors and also other effects, completely different types of Basharic (human) souls are produced.

 

In the following articles, we will explain and analyse the purpose of the Basharic soul. Here we can briefly say that this highly developed earthly soul together with a soul created directly by God, called the heavenly soul, form a True Self, with the Basharic soul responsible for biological activities and the heavenly soul responsible for the thought process.

The correct and acceptable answer to the question of why human bodies have different natures is also based on the fact that the earthly soul has completed the process of perfection in the manner discussed above.

In the next article, we will deal with other features of the process of maturation by the ascending method.

Reincarnation or ascending method? Part 1

From the perspective of the University of the Perfection Process, the process of mental maturation is considered a very gradual and time-consuming process.

In this world view, from the beginning of creation, after passing through the first stages of preparation for the first earthly life, the heavenly soul must experience a thousand earthly lives, while the sum of both lives is one hundred years. Therefore, each soul on average has fifty thousand earthly years at its disposal to complete the process of perfection. 

What can be seen in the first analysis is the fact that patience is an essential attribute of God, because otherwise, a soul would not have enough time to gain the necessary knowledge and experience regarding the process of soul maturation according to the trial-and-error method and finally to acquire its perfection. Therefore, it would not be able to know God and to make progress towards his will. 

An immature and young soul does not yet know its Nafs (ego) and therefore it cannot yet control it. This lack of control is why the material world is so attractive to a young soul. As a result, it deviates from the right path. The 50,000 earthly years that God has placed at the disposal of all of us give young souls the opportunity to experience, calmly and very slowly, in the course of time and during successive lives, all kinds of pleasant and unpleasant situations, and to learn how to behave correctly in every situation, according to the trial-and-error method.

Moreover, during these 50,000 earthly years, souls recognize that the privileges of the material world do not meet the needs of the soul. 

On the path to perfection and during the earthly life and afterlife, each soul must internalize a thousand spiritual worlds, that is, soul stages, and finally reach forty thousand spiritual positions (ranks). Each spiritual world (stage) can be compared to a university semester, in which each student must pass a certain number of units comparable to the same spiritual ranks.

During this process, every person will one day find out that his home is not on earth but in another place and that he has to move in the right direction to reach his main goal.

God's actions are in no way connected with haste. As is scientifically proven in the creation of the multiverses, this phase lasted thousands of billions of years. Also, according to geologists, the formation of our planet took almost twenty million years. So it would be very unwise to believe that humans have only one life available to complete the process of perfection.

It is wise to accept Master Elahi's doctrine that refers to 1000 consecutive earthly lives. It will then be possible to answer the questions that call into question God's justice.

If we assume that according to religious reports, only the believers go to heaven, then an inhabitant of the Amazon rainforest who has not even heard of Jesus Christ, Zarathustra, Buddha, Krishna, Moses or of Muhammad will ask God: 

"Why didn't you bear me in a Christian, Buddhist, ... or Muslim family, so that I would not go to hell but to heaven?" 

In that case, what will God's answer be?

How will God really respond to the question of junkies and prostitutes who were born in a brothel and were trapped in a life of forced sex and drug addiction since childhood and died from a number of different sexually transmitted diseases? Won't they ask God: 

"Why didn't you bring us into the world in a decent family but in such a corrupt environment, where we had to endure all the suffering and now have to go to hell after death because we didn't believe in Jesus Christ, or Muhammad? Why didn't you give us the opportunity and enough time to improve ourselves?"

Then what can really be God's answer?

The question is, can one expect such an unreasonable decision from God? Can such a God be just and praiseworthy at all?

There are many such complex problems that cannot be answered in a worldview based on "one man - one life" theory. 

In order to answer the question, which led to the formation of the above-mentioned world view, one has to remember that reincarnation was not able to analyse and scientifically present all the problems discussed above in a reasonable and complete way due to its wrong interpretations. Thus, people have no other choice than to firmly believe in the idea of "One Man - One Life".  

It was only after Master Elahi published his doctrine that it slowly became clear to some explorers that this worldview should be considered a perfect version of the truth regarding the Creator, creatures, and all of existence.  

By developing the thesis "successive lives with ascending method" Master Elahi has succeeded in showing his fellow human beings how souls are transformed into each other in mineral, plant, and animal phases. He also explains the necessity of the basharic (earthly) soul at the end of this series of transformations. 

According to these teachings, this soul is formed from several perfected animal souls, genetic effects and some of the seven creation factors. 

In these interpretations, he explains the ascending course of mental growth and its beginning, intermediate stages and the end, and the time allotted for this process. 

Furthermore, he makes clear to us what happens to the soul after each death and after the end of the scheduled time and what fate awaits the soul.

As mentioned at the beginning of this article, the subject of the return of souls to earth has always been vague and mysterious. At best, it has become a reincarnation with two major weaknesses. 

First, the life of the soul on earth is unlimited in reincarnation.

Second, after separation from the previous body, the soul can immediately enter the objects or bodies that are at a lower level of soul maturity. 

Apart from the other shortcomings of this world view, this hypothesis does not define an intermediate world or an afterlife. Furthermore, the lack of a certain time for this process is another problem. 

Master Elahi solved all these problems by presenting the thesis "Perfection Process with the Ascending Method" and answering all the questions arising out of it.

 

In the second and third parts of this article, we will look at this topic in more details.
