Æther: The Hidden G-d 🧵

The Universal Æther was not, in the eyes of the ancients, simply a tenantless something, stretching throughout the expanse of heaven; it was for them a boundless ocean, peopled like our familiar earthly seas, with Gods, Spirits and Monstrous Creatures.

The Aether was the Hidden G-d. The Hindûs who had personified their Âkâsha, and made of it a deific entity, the Greeks and Latins had deified Æther. Virgil called it Zeus, Pater Omnipotens, the Great G-d. The Ancient Doctrines taught of Different Classes of Spirits in the Akasha.

The Ancient Hindû Aryans called the Unseen Spirits Pitris and Devas, the Persians called them Devs; the Greeks knew them as Daimons; the Egyptians as Afrites. The Romans made them G-ds. The Early Church Fathers monopolized these Spirits and labeled them Demons & Devils.

Who or what were the G-ds, or Daimonia, of the Greek & Romans? The Early Church Fathers followed the Zoroastrian Blue Print. It was Zoroaster who classified all the Hindu Deities as Devs, classifying them as Evil. The Church Father followed suit making the Pagan G-ds into Devils.

The Daimon of Socrates was the Divine Entity which inspired him all his life. Socrates stated that the individual or personal Soul is the leading guardian Daimon of every man, and that no Daimon has more power over us than our own. The Guardian Daimon inspired the Guardian Angel.

Xenocrates, who expounded many of the unwritten theories and teachings of his master, and who surpassed Plato in his definition of the doctrine of invisible magnitudes, taught that the Daimons are intermediate beings between the divine perfection and human.

Heracleides, who adopted fully the Pythagorean views of the human Soul, its nature and faculties, speaking of Spirits, called them "Daimons with airy and vaporous bodies," and affirms that Souls inhabit the Milky Way before descending "into generation" or sublunary existence.

There was 3 Classes of Daimons. The first two are invisible; their bodies are pure ether & fire (Planetary Spirits); the Daimons of the third class are clothed with vapoury bodies; they are usually invisible, but sometimes, visible for a few seconds. These are the Astral Souls.

It was taught that the four elements are all filled with Daimons, maintaining with Aristotle that the universe is full, and that there is no void in nature. The Daimons of the earth, air, fire, and water are of an elastic, ethereal, semi-corporeal essence.

It is these classes of Daimons which officiate as intermediate agents between the G-ds and men. In the Jewish Kabalah, the nature-spirits were known under the general name of Shedim, and divided into four classes.

Persons who believe in clairvoyant power, but are disposed to discredit the existing of any other spirits in nature than disembodied human spirits, will be interested in an account of certain clairvoyant observations which appeared in the London Spiritualist of June 29th, 1877.

A thunderstorm approaching, the seeress saw "a bright spirit emerge from a dark cloud and pass with lightning speed across the sky, and, a few minutes after, a diagonal line of dark spirits in the clouds." These are the Maruts of the Vedas.

The well-known author, and clairvoyant, Mrs. Emma Hardinge Britten, has published accounts of her frequent experiences with these elemental spirits. If Spiritualists will accept her "spiritual" experience they can hardly reject her evidence in favour of the occult theories.

Krishna, who is at the same time Purusha and Prakriti in its totality, is the divine spirit (Daimon) in man says in the Bhagavad Gita: "I am the Cause. I am the production and dissolution of the whole of Nature. On me is all the Universe suspended as pearls upon a string."

Krishna continues, "Even though myself unborn, of changeless essence, and the Lord of all existence, yet in presiding over Nature (Prakriti) which is mine, I am born but through my own Mâyâ [the mystic power of Self-ideation, the Eternal Thought in the Eternal Mind."

To be Clear, the Ether is the Âkâsha of the Hindus. Âkâsha is Prakriti, or the totality of the manifested Universe, while Purusha is the Universal Spirit, higher than the Universal Soul. So it is clear the Ancient Doctrines of the Ancient Aryans knew of the Ether or Hidden G-d.

Apuleius said, "The human soul is a demon that our language may name genius. She is an immortal god, though in a certain sense she is born at the same time as the man in whom she is. Consequently, we may say that she dies in the same way that she is born."
