71 RealityBites #12 The 7 Hermetic Principles of Reality Series #3 “The Principle of Vibration”

Welcome to the third episode of a 7 part RealityBites Series featuring and exploring the 7 Hermetic Principles as told in The Kybalion -  In The Kybalion, a book first published in 1908 by the “Three Initiates” the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus are conveyed in the study of hermetic philosophy.

In Hermetic thought, the movements of the planets are believed to have meaning beyond the laws of physics and actually hold metaphorical value as symbols in the mind of the All, or God, which have influence upon the Earth, but do not dictate our actions; wisdom is gained when we know what these influences are and how ...

3. The Principle of Vibration:

“Nothing rests; Everything moves; Everything vibrates.”

The principle of vibration states that all things, both physical matter and spiritual energy, hold a certain vibration. 

It’s like the principle that everything is energy, everything has a certain frequency or vibrational signature.

We talk about raising our vibration, feeling certain vibes…matter, energy, spirit are all just varying rates of vibration.

Hermeticists believe that even thoughts have their own rate of vibration, and can be controlled like tuning an instrument, to produce various results for the aim of self and environment mastery. As your understanding of vibration, frequency, harmony and resonance increase, so too shall your power over yourself and your world.

Different rates of vibration - are different realms of experience and creation.

The concept of raising your vibe or vibration is synonymous with manifesting the creations we desire which are vibrating at that level of reality.

Also, think of a tuning fork that is set at a certain frequency - it becomes resonate with that which is vibrating at the same frequency.

We talked about the principle of correspondence in our last episode of hermetic wisdom, where it states  As above, so below; as below, so above." —The Kybalion or “As within, so without”

And how we can influence the field with our corresponding energy or vibration -  you can see how the hermetic principles are all related, connected and compliment each other.

Think of our brain waves..what are our thoughts? Where does consciousness come from, emanate from? Hermeticists believe “all is mind” the first principle that the universe is mental in nature - still the hard problem of consciousness is open to debate and science has yet to fully prove or explain just what consciousness is.

But lets look at our brain waves for a moment- as waves of vibration or frequencies - Gamma, Beta, Alpha, Theta, Delta.

It is no wonder that so many eastern wisdom traditions and teachings have looked to quieten the mind through stillness and meditation practices -  a still or quiet mind, or a mind that transcends thinking is more relaxed, calm and therefore more presence.

Presence is in the NOW of all possibility - Eckhart Tolle talk a lot about presence and transcending the ego mind and identity - he says often that our suffering is caught up in our habitual thinking of the past and future - to know presence is to transcend this.

That as soon as we label something, anything as the mind tends to do we are then separate from the presence pr divine aspect of our true nature.

Something of course to ponder and contemplate and become more attuned to - often just focusing in on ht body, noticing sensations, will take you out of your mind and into the feeling of the body, its vibration.

Next up principle number 4, The Principle of Polarity -  “Everything is dual; Everything has poles; Everything has its pair of opposites;”
