On the concept of Samsara and Lucifer Samsara

A summary of the traditional concept of Samsara:
In Hinduism and Buddhism, samsara is a concept that describes the birth, death and rebirth of a being within the physical world. This cycle is seen as problematic as it traps the being within a cycle of suffering as well as dissatisfaction (called Duhkha or Dukkah).
The word Samsara itself is a sanskrit word that means “flowing on” or flowing through”. It is described and understood as a state in which a being is bound by greed, hate and ignorance, or sometimes it is understood as veil of illusion that hides the true reality of existence. Within Buddhist traditions and philosophy, samsara is described as a process we are all trapped within where freedom from the process is attained by reaching enlightenment.
An interesting aspect of this concept can be found in the thoughts of the Theravada monk and teacher Thanisarro Bhikkhu, which describes the concept of samsara as something where we create worlds. In this description of samsara, we are continually creating worlds that we step into, not simply by our birth and rebirth but also in every moment that we consciously interact with the world.
The difference between the concept of samsara within the worldview, traditions and philosophy of Hinduism and Buddhism, is that within Hinduism it seems that samsara denotes the prices of physical birth, death and rebirth alone, while in Buddhism this also includes the direct karmic conditions that affect each of us from moment to moment. In Buddhism the concept of samsara includes the notion that our Ego creates our view of the world around us, as a projection of own inner world, and that this projection carries with it any karmic conditions, be they positive or negative, into our experience of the external world.

Some thoughts on the traditional definitions presented above:
The concept of “samsara” is integrally linked to that of “duhkha” or “dukkah” which is the title of another one of the 13 Lucifers, namely Lucifer Duhkha, more on this powerful and venerable bringer of light and enlightenment will be presented at a later date on this blog.

Another link that is not so obvious is the mention of a veil of illusion, which directly links the concept of “samsara” to the concept of “maya”, which is the title of another one of the 13 Lucifers, namely Lucifer Maya, more on this powerful and venerable bringer of light and enlightenment will be presented at a later date on this blog.

Also take note of the definition of Thanisarro Bhikku, whereby we are considered as the creators of worlds, where this process seems to describe the flow from our inner world and experience and it getting projected into the outer world. This aligns with the hermetic principle of “as within, so without”.

My Personal Gnosis about Lucifer Samsara:
Lucifer Samsara’s teaching and path to enlightenment is one of immersion into the world, into the very cycle of manifestation itself. They teach that we can become enlightened through our understanding of the world around us as well as ourselves. That awakening is attained by looking at and immersing oneself into the physical world, but realizing that we are something unique within it. That enlightenment is the full realization of ourselves as incarnations of our own divinity within this world, and that unity with the world is achieved by understanding that everything else is simply a manifestation that hinges around us, that we project our own essence unto.

Hence the purpose of Lucifer Samsara’s teachings is that the process of birth, death and rebirth is one of maturity through transformation. This transformation does not only occur through our souls transmigrating from one body to the next, but rather through each given moment where we ourselves define the trajectory of our own future.
We choose what aspect of ourselves that we manifest in each and every moment, either by simply going along with what we are used to, or by making new and creative decisions. This can be described as us choosing what we allow or what we choose to affirm about ourselves and the world in each and every moment. The maturation of each being according to Lucifer Samsara is a process that is similar to the maturation of us as physical human beings, we all start out as infants, progress into children and youths, and then over time move forward into adulthood. This physical process of maturation is mimicked in our psychological process of maturation, where children move from natural states of dependency and attachment, into the evolving individuation and self-assertion of youth and adulthood.
According to Lucifer Samsara this process itself is one that is required for each being to realize their own place as the center of their own world, existence and universe in the external, as well as the realization of the same in the internal as our experience, our reality and perception of life itself. At the pinnacle of this process of maturity lies the powerful realization that we are the essence of what our life, our experiences, our reality, our world, our universe and our very existence revolves around. That we are the hub around which our birth, life, death and rebirth revolves around. That we are the centre of our own existence, and that we control the very way that this transformational process manifests. Because we are that very manifestation, and that we are in control of our own incarnation. When this maturity is reached a being can become anything they wish, manifest themselves in any form they wish, and have complete control and dominon over their own incarnation, both internal and external, both spiritual and physical. This is the aspect of enlightenment that Lucifer Samsara teaches to those that listen, and the gift received through this teaching is that of complete essential power over ones own existence, both spiritually and physically.

Lucifer Samsara teaches us that samsara is not a wheel of suffering within which we are bound, but rather a tool of manifestation through which we can change the world for the better. For when we choose to become and be our true selves, to embody our own deity and godhood, we instead become conduits of power that transcends the physical, like living gateways that can channel the change into the world that we wish to see in it. But first we need to realize and mature as beings, into us being able to manifest ourselves as true incarnations of our own divinity. This is the inherent ability we have as divine beings, to take charge of this process of samsara and apply it towards our own realization, actualization and manifestation, as a definitive power of our inherent deity and godhood. One that Lucifer Samsara is calling us all to understand and embrace, as it allows us to be the shapers not only of ourselves but the world around us. And thus we do not need to flee from or try to escape samsara, but rather use it as a tool, as a principle for the benefit of all that we choose. To become absolute beings flowing on the principles and powers of ourselves, to become absolute beings  whose presence and power is flowing through our own incarnations into the world, for a better future for all that we choose.

To the one that has earned and attained the above, Lucifer Samsara then teaches about the very processes through which you can manifest the life you decide upon for yourself. Lucifer Samsara teaches the worthy about how to divine what is in the process of manifesting or that could become, how to master ones own intuition both for guidance as well as for expression in magic, and how to channel visions and inspiration from our own higher selves, also in reflection to the world and the circumstances that we inhabit. Lucifer Samsara also teaches us how to handle dynamic forces and energies as well as how to manage these energies in your own ability to realize, actualize, manifest and incarnate ourselves from moment to moment, letting us become whatever we need or choose to be in any circumstance we inhabit.
Lucifer Samsara also teaches the principles and provides guidance to those that wish to travel to other realms, planes, domains and even other universes through soul-travel, and can teach the traveler how to attune to each realm that they are about to visit making their incarnation or manifestation within said realm perfectly adapted to the very place one visits on ones soul-journeys.

The power of Lucifer Samsara’s healing fire is one that can help a soul heal from trauma, wounds and issues that we describe as karma. As fire itself is a manifestation of transformation, this transformational fire brings us back to our own true nature and essence, so that we can fully manifest ourselves as beings without the burdens we carry from our current or past lifetimes, in our current incarnation or past incarnations.

The purification principle is a separate aspect of how the healing fire of Lucifer Samsara works which instead works on the very energetic manifestations of ourselves, and that has the power to cleanse our very spiritual and deep energetic being, just like a furnace melts metals and purifies them, until there is only the perfect purity of ones true self remaining. And where ones manifestation is then ready to be molded by oneself just like a metalworker can shape purified white-hot metal.

The power of dreams is where Lucifer Samsara teaches about the hidden potentials found within the world of dreams, that they call an extension of ones inner world into the external world of the intangible. Lucifer Samsara can teach someone lucid-dreaming, and learning about the possible powers of manifestation that one can possess in the astral realms and beyond. These powers of manifestation can be learned and function much the same as within dreams, which makes dreams into a playground through which we can learn about our being unbounded by our physical vessel and body. The power of dreams also allow us to explore and access parts of our past lives and physical incarnations, along with their respective memories and the energetic structures we carry along from those lives, that we can then process directly using Lucifer Samsara’s teachings and powers.

The power of descending light is an aspect of Lucifer Samsara where they will teach and empower the individual to channel the utmost heights of their own divinity into the deepest and furthest reaches within. Where ones true self and the light of ourself descends into every corner of our inner world and even the physical world around us, transforming and manifesting potential into something tangible of our own making.

To follow the path of Lucifer Samsara, by listening to their teachings and guidance is to become an eternally conscious yet continually reincarnating agent of transformation in any place one chooses to inhabit, as the one that directs the flow of manifestation itself and sets the essence of all manifestations. Where one becomes the centre that dictates the order of manifestation, while being fully able to dynamically transform and shape what is.
