Scientific
Proof – Table of Contents The Divine Physics of
Evolution A talk given by Bubba Free John to his devotees BUBBA: This great affair that I am describing is
absolutely uncommon. It has hardly ever transpired in
anyone’s case in the whole history of the human world. What
I am describing is a process that belongs to the further
evolution of humanity. At best it belongs to thousands,
millions, billions of years in the future for the race as a
whole. At present almost all human beings persist in an
infantile moment in the evolution of existence, a moment
that has nothing whatever to do with the ultimate Truth.
Modern men and women are still dependent, violent,
self-possessed, still seeking consolations in the realm of
changes. So people should not imagine for a moment that this
Way of life is an easy matter, that they can simply listen
to this argument and thereby enter the ultimate Realization.
This Way is the work of evolution, the work of the universe
itself. It is the obligation or Law of eternal Existence
that we are considering, and that the true relationship to
the Spiritual Master generates and regenerates. The human Spiritual Master is an agent to the advantage
of those in like form. When one enters into right
relationship with the Spiritual Master, changes happen in
the literal physics of one’s existence. It is not just a
matter of ideas. I am talking about transformations at the
level of energy, at the level of the higher light of
physics, at the level of mind beyond the physical
limitations that people now presume, at the level of the
absolute Speed of ultimate Light. The transforming process
is enacted in devotees, duplicated in them in and through
that Living Company. It is not a matter of conceptual
symbolism’s or emotional attachment to some extraordinary
person. It is real physics. And it is to the advantage of
people when someone among them has gone through the whole
cycle of Transformation, because they can then make use of
the Offering of that Process, that Company. Spiritual life has nothing to do with the childishness
that people tend to dramatize in the relationship to the
Spiritual Master. I criticize that childish or dependent
approach more directly than most people. Others are merely
petulant about it, in the self-righteous mood of
adolescence. But there are real reasons why both the
childish and adolescent approaches to the Spiritual Master
are forms of destructive nonsense and must be overcome.
However, the mature, sacrificial relationship to the
Spiritual Master is itself absolutely Lawful and necessary.
Those who object to that relationship might as well object
to the relationship between the Earth and the sun. Most people are willing to sacrifice things, but not
themselves. They are willing to pay cash, in other words,
for a quick salvation. This is an ancient ritual of worship,
but it is false and futile. True worship is the sacrifice of
your own bodily being in Truth, in the living and
Transforming Company of the Spiritual Master. People
absolutely resist that sacrifice. The reason they resist it
is that they know nothing about it. They are subhuman in
their present level of adaptation. Sacrifice represents
another stage of evolution for them. They are incapable of
it in their actual, literal, psycho-physical condition. They
must be drawn out of that condition, led out into another
state of existence. And it is as far to go from where they
are now to the ultimate Divine Realization as it is for the
amoeba in the primal mud of the Earth to become a human
being. Everything about them, even the body, must change
radically. There is a profound difference between the condition of
the usual man and the Condition of the Awakened individual.
It is an inconceivable leap in evolution. But there is a
real process for it, and there is Help for it: the mature,
devotional relationship to the Awakened Spiritual Master. In
other words, there is something in the physics of the
universe that makes it possible for a single or random
individual to pass through the entire affair of
Transformation in God, and then to bring others into the
sphere of his existence, so that they may duplicate his
Condition and be drawn into that entire and ultimate
evolutionary cycle. Therefore, the relationship to the
Spiritual Master is the primary function of spiritual
life. What must take place, if spiritual life is to be true, is
not just a change in your mind, an inner awakening, a good
feeling about everything. The literal physics of your whole
existence must change. In the true spiritual process, the
individual must pass through many stages of real evolution.
The physical body and its energies must be literally
transformed. Spiritual processes do not occur in the
subjective nonsense that people associate with religion –
all this vicarious belief and vicarious salvation – as if
real Awakening were just a matter of asking some silly
question or going to a few lectures for the weekend. That is
not Enlightenment. Enlightenment is a literal change of the
whole body. When you have acquired the human form, the
literal change that must occur in the body is not really so
much an outward appearance, because you already have the
necessary structure. But the changes that must occur are
literal, psycho-physical changes, just as literal as if you
were to acquire more legs and arms, except that the most
dramatic changes occur in dimensions different from the
outward shape of the body. Certainly changes occur in the
flesh and the elemental structures of the body, but the
changes do not really alter its outward shape. The change is
as literal as evolving from a dinosaur to a human being, and
it is as dramatic as that, but it principally occurs at more
subtle levels of the physics of the bodily being. There are
literal changes in the nervous system, literal changes in
the chemistry of the body, literal changes in the structural
functioning of the brain. You cannot realize such a change in a weekend. Such a
change is a living process, a matter of growth. But it can
be quickened and intensified through right practice, through
real moral or sacrificial discipline, through the Company of
the Spiritual Master. In that Company, the Condition of the
higher physics is Communicated to the individual, in such a
way that it brings about a radical Transformation in the
disposition of the body-mind, and then magnifies the
effectiveness of that disposition many times, so that the
whole process can take place even in a single lifetime.
That, process can at least be dramatically advanced in one
lifetime, if not completely fulfilled. I have described the full esoteric progression of this
remarkable Transformation in The
Paradox of Instruction and The
Knee of Listening, as well as in the present book. This
description is not based merely on an intellectual synthesis
of things I have read and thought. The whole path is my
literal experience – not only the complete moral
preparation, but also the awakenings of energy, including
the full kundalini process, the elaboration of subtle sounds
and lights via the awakening of the brain centers, all the
great archetypal visions, everything. I have had all the
classic yogic experiences, from the muladhar, or the lowest
terminal of the bodily being at the perineum, to the upper
reaches of the mind in the brain core. Eventually, it became
evident that the “muladhar to sahasrar game” (or, really,
the raising of attention from the muladhar to the ajna
center, with contemplation of the “sky of mind” in the
direction of the sahasrar), whether played through the
grosser, extended bodily processes of the kundalini
awakening, or through the higher path of the awakening of
the brain centers through meditations on subtle light and
sound, is not the Way of Truth. It became evident that the
Realization of Truth is the perfect sacrifice not only of
the lower or gross level of existence, but also of the whole
subtle or higher mental elaboration of experience and
function. Thus, in my case, ultimately there was perfect
Realization of the Heart of Consciousness, or
Self-Realization, which is an Awakening beyond the limits of
the inward soul, into unqualified God-Realization. That one person has had all these extraordinary
experiences and also enjoys this Unconditional Awakening as
his constant Condition is a great opportunity for all
others. His Realization and Teaching bring all these matters
into a clear unity, so that the whole affair of our
existence can be approached rightly. The Realization of the
perfect Intensity of Truth has continued as my very
Existence. It was not and could not have been a passing
experience. And the Power of it is available for the
Transformation of others, if people will enter into right
relationship with me. If you move into such a relationship, the Process begins
to duplicate itself in your case. It is not as if you are a
robot that is being transformed through the effect of some
computer -no, it is a living and human relationship. But it
is not like the conventional doctor-patient or
mommy-daddy-baby games. Irresponsible people cannot enter
into it. You must be responsible for yourself at the human
level, and in a profoundly uncommon way. You must live the
ordinary discipline yourself. You yourself must be love
under all ordinary, daily conditions. You must make a moral
change in your life. There is no way whereby you can be
relieved of this necessity, and nobody can do it for you.
But all of that ordinary moral responsibility simply
prepares you for the right relationship to the Spiritual
Agency of the Divine in the form of the Spiritual Master.
Such a one is your unique advantage, because he is present
in the same bodily form as you-manifest in this same
physical condition, the same nervous system, the same kind
of brain. But in him all of these things are raised to an
absolute level of functioning, so that entering into contact
or Communion with that individual brings changes even at the
level of the psycho-physical body which you present to
him. The abstract Deity cannot serve you in that way, you see,
because the physics of this Process must be directly
present, and the human Demonstration of the Process must be
present, in a form that can do its Work in your case. That
Work is the purpose of the Spiritual Master, because he
represents a state of the ultimate physics of things that is
your potential but not your actuality at the present time.
The abstract Divine and the potential powers of the universe
are just as true as the Spiritual Master, but they are not
organized (except in the case of the Spiritual Master) for
the sake of the immediate transformation of human beings. If
people enter into right relationship with the Spiritual
Master, then they themselves begin to realize the same
transformations. Then, at the end of the Spiritual Master’s
life (or when he finally retires from personal contact with
others), his devotees will have gone through sufficient
Transformation that the Community of devotees can become the
extended mechanism or Agent of his Function. That Community
Agency does the work of the Divine Power in the future. But
there must be a long period of literal Transformation of
devotees before the same Agency can be transferred to them,
or to their unique Form, which is the Community. Until such devotees exist, there is only the Agency of
the Spiritual Master himself. The Spiritual Master is the
Awakened Servant of Man. He serves to regenerate the moral
Teaching of Truth and to resurrect the great Culture of
Compassion and Wisdom among men. That is a secondary aspect
of his service to men and women, an emanation of his
Realization and Ultimate Function. His True and Ultimate
Function is to instigate the superphysics of literal
God-Realization among true devotees. If there is no
duplication of that superphysical Process, there can be no
true continuation of the Teaching, except in verbal form,
because there can be no living Agency. So how would the
Process take place in the future? Perhaps, as in the past, people could resort to the
pieces of it that men of experience represent. People can
always experience a little yoga, a little psychism, a little
internal energy, a little insight. But when the Total
Representation of Divine Realization is demonstrated in the
literal human form of one individual, people must make use
of it. It is an advantage that is unique in human time.
