In our last post, Resurrecting With Jesus—Now!, we started with the goal: Physical Immortality through resurrecting with Jesus. Working backwards, we constructed the Immortal Will. In this post, we shall go backwards one step still, and offer some insights on the purification process. This is the means by which one is in right standing before God. It is starting over with a clean slate. The removal of traumas. The focus on the uplifting. Asking for God’s mercy. As one becomes pure one can become Holy even as God is Holy.
1. The Holiness Prayer: “Father, have mercy upon me! Please forgive me for all wrongs I have done to you, others, and myself. Please remove all evil, traumas, and demonic influences. Let me be Holy even as you are Holy! Thanks, God!”
2. With the Holiness Prayer, we begin the purification process. The purpose is to be whole. Note that the purification process is an ongoing one and will be continued as long as necessary. It can be done with other processes such as constructing the Immortal Will and Resurrecting with Jesus.
3. The first part of the prayer, invites God’s mercy. This is your only chance. It is only because of His love that you are even alive. Give praise to God!
4. The second sentence asks for forgiveness. While I understand that there is no free will at the ego level, it is still necessary to act as if you were responsible because in this way we can create new structures or archetypes which will allow you to be clean. Please note this prayer is to God and I would not ask a human being for forgiveness as this opens up oneself to possible attacks from those who would use your words against you. When there is true forgiveness, the prior events are not recalled anymore and thus they are let go.
5. The third sentence asks for evil, traumas, and demonic influences to be removed from your being. Those who know about auras will know that these parasites will lodge in the aura, often turning it dark, and thus will require spiritual assistance. See: How To Read Auras: What Does Your Aura Color Mean? | Spirit of Ma'at. Because the cause of the problem is an intra-psychic (between the various sub-personalities in your being) and inter-psychic (between you and outside entities), the medical community will be of no use; only in the most drastic case, would I recommend seeing a psychiatrist or psychologist as they are ill-equipped to handle evil. Readers are invited to see my previous post, "Yes, Mommy, Please Fuck Me Up Some More!" for additional insights.
6. Because your connections with others will often mean your disconnection from God, you will need to eliminate the vast majority of relationships. “ Whoever does not hate father and mother cannot be a follower of me, and whoever does not hate brothers and sisters and bear the cross of I do, is not worthy of me”---Jesus, Saying 55, Gospel of Thomas. This command means the follower of Jesus will eliminate all ties to his parents and other family members. I would write each of them a handwritten letter explaining that you are a follower of Jesus and thus cannot talk or see them ever again. Wish your parents well and move on. If your connection to your parents are deep, then you will have to find a way out for what does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his very own soul? Also, note if you are in any unholy relationship with others, you will need to follow Jesus and end it.
7. The last part of the prayer asks for a heart opening. Here we humbly ask God to make us Holy even as He is Holy! Ask the Spirit of Truth to show you the next step in your journey to holiness. It may be cleaning your personal space as “cleanliness is next to holiness.” It may mean finding new relationships. Or it may mean taking all screens such as televisions, computers, and apple phones to the nearest recycling center (or otherwise dispose of them). Whatever God prompts you to do, do it--Now!
8. A requirement necessary to enter God’s Holiness is to honor God’s Holy Day, the 7th day of the week. This means Saturday is a day of rest from the world and a focus on God. Rent a motel room for the day if you need to get away from the chaos of other people. This is a great day to meditate, ingest some marijuana, pray, and organize your life!
9. The Holiness Connection is started each day through the Holy Vow: “Father, I give you everything—my life, my heart, my soul, my mind—my very being. Please give me the strength to do your will this day. Thanks, God!” This is said aloud the first thing each morning. Then invite the Spirit of Truth to guide you into God’s Holiness. A few minutes meditating on Jesus’ words in the Gospel of Thomas will be of major benefit in your quest for holiness. Then work on the purification process. This is a daily practice. As there is a Holiness Connection with God, one will be in right standing with God!

Other Notes:
10. Over the weekend, I took a college course, “Origins of Life,” by Professor Robert M. Hazen. See: Origins of Life | The Great Courses. A key insight is that life require 3 things to exist:
a) a metabolic system,
b) reproduction,
c) evolution.
The difficulty for origin of life researchers is the “complexity problem.” In a nutshell: Logically, life must have started with some kind of reproduction of itself (via the double-helix DNA and transport systems such as RNA). But this sophisticated reproduction system requires a metabolic system. The metabolic system is a quite involved as it requires a means to input energy into the system and then use the energy to transport to various sites (ATP) and then dispose of the waste. Both systems must be operating in order for either to work. But the metabolic system and the reproduction system are fairly independent of each other and there is no working model which shows how these two could be fitted together separately since both are necessary for either to work. How to solve this problem?
11. While origin of life researchers have not been able to solve this “chicken-and-egg” conundrum, I will propose the obvious Deus Ex Machina solution: At the foundational level, physical processes will have to go outside the system in order to give it the necessary first steps. By definition, God is the First Cause or if you like, the “causeless cause.” So I am taking a deist position and saying there had to be original watchmaker. But I go a step farther: Natural Law is a man-made construct which does work extremely well in most cases and is a good working hypothesis. However, there are many cases in which natural law will be violated such as Jesus being resurrection from the dead.
