The Living Sun

The Sun reached the peak of solar cycle 25 between October 2024 and has continued through 2025. This could even extend into 2026. This means that during this time there are a larger number of sunspots and increased solar activity generally. July of last year saw approximately 126 sunspots. On August 8th there was a CME flare (coronal mass ejection) from a region of the Sun which was directly facing Earth, but somehow this huge flare was launched away from our Planet which would have been a disaster for our civilization had this CME been a direct hit. The largest ever recorded CME took place in the 19th century and is known as the Carrington Event. Strong auroral displays were seen all over the world and many telegraph stations of the day caught fire and caused sparking. Were such an event to take place today there would be catastrophic disruption to all the power grids, GPS and other satellite services, the internet and all other electronic functions we are so dependent upon.

The first recorded solar cycle ever recorded was at the beginning of February 1755 and ended in June 1766. There were not enough accurate observations prior to that date, hence the start date in 1755 of Solar Cycle No.1. A major disaster was predicted for 2012. Once again, a huge CME occurred that year which would have spelled disaster for our world but somehow, due to the rotation of the Sun itself, this flare missed Earth and was projected instead through space across the Solar System.

A Solar Cycle is a naturally occurring cycle of the Sun, which lasts for approximately eleven years.  At the height of such a cycle, the Sun’s magnetic poles flip over which causes bursts of activity and solar storms which affect the entire Solar System. In a report published in Space.com, between November 9th and November 11th of last year, a series of solar flares, accompanied by CMEs were released, impacting Earth around November 12th and incredible auroral displays were seen as far South as Lake Powell, Utah! All this shows a definite and regular pattern of activity which would suggest that there is a controlling factor in all the Solar Cycles which is not random.

And yet when we look at the shining orb in our skies, we can easily forget that this life giving, super-heated ball of plasma we call the Sun is in fact a living conscious Being. It is only in the 20th century, with the advancement of so-called space exploration and the cold analysis of the composition of stars that the concept of a conscious star was dismissed. This was not always so. The ancient Greeks worshipped the Sun as a living Being as did many other cultures throughout history and even as late as the 16th century the Italian philosopher Francesco Patrizi coined the phrase “panpsychism”. This is the recognition that consciousness is a fundamental aspect of existence throughout the Universe.

This new reality began to take hold again in the last decade with the concept that consciousness can exist in clumps of matter. Another compelling factor is the observation that our brains function through electromagnetic activity and this is thought to produce consciousness. What would this indicate for a Star, in this instance our Sun? There is immense electromagnetic activity within it which drives all these patterns of solar cycles, movement of plasma, CMEs and pole reversals.

Is it by chance that the huge CME of August 8th last year launched by the Sun from an area directly facing the Earth, was directed away from it? Or that the flare in 2012 – the year long predicted to bring an end to civilization – was fired in a trajectory away from Earth and out across the Solar System?

Space.com, reporting on research published in the journal Solar Physics, published an article theorizing that Venus, Earth and Jupiter help to keep the Sun calmer than it otherwise might be, compared to other similar stars in the Galaxy which are far more active. The more “benign” nature of the Sun has undoubtedly enabled life as we know it to evolve and proliferate on our Planet. This again would suggest an intelligent plan behind the evolution of life. The idea that the Sun could be conscious may seem like a far out theory, popular with fringe researchers but is gaining traction in mainstream thought.

The current thinking is that electromagnetic activity produces consciousness but the metaphysical perspective is the other way round: it is consciousness that produces electromagnetic activity. At least science is starting to catch up with metaphysics. If people will accept this new reality, whole new vistas will start to open up. We will not just look upon our main sequence Star, the Sun, as a giant ball of fire, but as a life-giving, creative  living Being. Who are we to determine how life can develop and how consciousness can create a habitable form adapting to its surroundings to perpetuate its existence? There are examples on our own Planet, at the bottom of the ocean and in other toxic conditions that would kill us. These are known as extremophiles. We always think upon life in circumstances that support us in our present form. But that goes against the whole concept of evolution.

Both The Nine Freedoms and The Twelve Blessings show us that existence goes way beyond life as we know it. They both have, in different ways, opened our eyes to life in the Cosmos, life that goes way beyond our concept of how we see life in our limited way. The spiritual path is the path of evolution. Evolution brings change. Without change there can be no evolution. Mars Sector 6 takes us through the various stages of our spiritual journey right the way through to Solar Existence, not the life-force of the Sun itself, but to life on the Sun. The Master Jesus gives us a vision of the Solar Logos, or the Life-Force Itself, the consciousness of this immense living Being that dwells in a multi-dimensional framework, which may well be beyond our limited understanding. One of the great Chakras of God is the Sun, as are all Suns in creation. It is not by chance that our Divine Spirit is visualized as a miniature Sun. We are far from being the most intelligent beings in the Cosmos. We are arrogant and disrespectful to other life forms, never mind to more highly evolved conscious Beings.

The Master Jesus is very clear in His admonition of us for our lack of respect. Sun worship is not idolatry. He tells us the Sun is the God of our Bible, the Brahma of the Hindu Scripts, the nearest thing to God in our concept of manifestation. We owe everything to the Sun. Our bodies are solidified sunlight. Most pranic energies that flow through and around us emanate from the Sun. The Earth itself came from the Sun. Even our Divine Spark, according to The Master Jesus, came from the Sun, as stated in the Second Blessing. The Earth came from the Sun and will be absorbed back into the Sun in approximately 5 billion years when it reaches the end of its life cycle.

All this is part of a bigger picture. If all stars are conscious Beings then it opens up the concept that other Suns may communicate with each other. This would imply that the central Sun of the Galaxy itself would be an immense conscious Being with enormous amounts of energy generated that flow throughout the whole galactic system, influencing our Sun, not just in a physical sense, but spreading It’s influence on the solar mind and all the other Suns within Its embrace. This in turn filters through to Planets contained within solar systems down to life forms that are gaining experience on the various Planets.

This is all part of the process of evolution, an ever moving, ever changing progression on our long journey back to the Source from whence we came. Once we accept this new reality we will never look upon the Sun the same way again. As Dr. George King said in his lecture on the 8th Blessing, referring to the Sun:

“It’s the nearest thing to God that he’s (man) ever seen, even if he’s seen his own self. That Thing there – that will shine tomorrow although we don’t deserve it.  It will shine tomorrow – is nearer to God than the spirit of man. It must be, because that spirit is hundreds of trillions of light years of lives more advanced than the soul-spirit – shall we put it that way, not the pure spirit – the soul spirit of mankind.  If you would go to God, if you would go to something nearer to God than yourselves, for help, guidance, advice, vital energy – then there it is, up there: ninety three million five hundred thousand miles away from you…”
