Kuriakon
Eventually, the place where believers met together came to be called “the Lord’s house” using the term κυριακόν (kuriakon), which is the neuter version (literally, “the Lord’s thing”). This word made its way into both German (“Kirche”), Anglo Saxon (“circe”), and Middle English (“chirche”). It is interesting that when Luther translated the New Testament into vernacular German, he did not use the word “Kirche” to translate κκλησία (ekklesia), he used the German word “Gemeinde”, which means something similar to the English word “community”. However, many Germans still refer to the “church” as the “Kirche”
Gnosis
The original Greek word 'gnosis', is "to know" or knowledge in terms of being 'acquainted with' God. Gnosis therefore, is commonly referred to as the "direct knowledge of the divine mysteries". This knoweldge is based in deeper more sacred, inner spiritual truths derived from direct experience. Gnosis is the path of initiation into the Greater Mysteries and is the heart of all the great religions. In a specific religious sense is it the knowledge of God. Gnosis is the ultimate Revelation of knowing (versus reasoning) that is bestowed by the Divine -when God reveals hisself to man.

In the Beginning.....
"And
God said - "Let there be Light; and there was Light."
This is not the
limited visible light spectrum seen with the naked eye. A light which is super
luminous, boundless, timeless, interconnecting, energy intelligence which
enlightens all of creation.
- To the Chinese, this light is "chi;"
- to the Japanese, "ki;"
- to the yogic, "prana;"
- to the Hindu "akasha"
or "spanda;"
- to the Taoist; "Tao"
or "Wu Chi,"
- to the Polynesian, "mana;"
- to the Sufis, "baraka;"
- to the Jewish Mystic Kabbalist, "Ein
Sof" or "Endless Light;"
- to the Iroquois, "orenda."
The Pythagoreans of Greece referred to it as the "Music of the Spheres," and the ancient mystics called it the "ether." Modern quantum physicists might refer to it as the elusive "grand unified
force-field," or the "vacuum-based zero point holofield." In biblical terms it is the"Logos"or the "Word." Some call it pure thought or super
consciousness. To others, it is the "One Form," "primal vibration" or "animating Soul."

Near Death Experience
Many view the NDE as the precursor to an afterlife experience, claiming that the NDE cannot be adequately explained by physiological or psychological causes, and that the phenomenon conclusively demonstrates human consciousness can function independently of brain activity.

Soulmate
Many religions and spiritual paths believe in reincarnation and the concept of karma. Through reincarnation, soulmates may spend many lifetimes together in past lives. A "soulmate" is really nothing more than a soul or souls with whom we have closely shared so many lifetimes that we now resonate to the same pitch, so to speak.

After-death Communication
An after-death communication is a spiritual experience that occurs when a person is contacted directly and spontaneously by a family member or friend who has died. In many respects the person receiving an After-Death Communication is in a similar situation to a person who has a Near-Death Experience.
It is a separate and independent source of evidentiary information about the continuation of consciousness and also provides corroborating information about the nature of the afterlife, particularly soon after transition.

Reincarnation
This doctrine is a central tenet of the Indian religions and is a belief that was held by such historic figures as Pythagoras, Plato and Socrates. It is also a common belief of religions such as Druidism, Spiritism, Theosophy, and is found in many tribal societies around the world, in places such as Siberia, West Africa, North America, and Australia.

mystical
Mysticism is the knowledge of, and especially the personal experience of, states of consciousness, or levels of being, or aspects of reality, beyond normal human perception, including experience of and even communion with a supreme being.
Man, know Thyself’ was inscribed over the doors of the wonderful ancient temples of learning as the most important injunction to all aspirants. ‘The man who has mastered himself has mastered the world’, is another well-worn saying, which gains in significance when we reflect that man is said to contain within himself a facsimile of and a link with everything in the universe.

Welcome
When I was a child, I called a place of "light", which I
visited during near-death experiences, my true home.
Kuriakon is a word of Greek origin which implies the "Supreme Home."
A heaven of
celestial and divine light is our true home of origin.
This web site is dedicated to the memories of growing up in a world where we
blind ourselves to the creation of our "soul" in a quest to find our way back to
our origin once again.
This site is a collection of information relating to various metaphysical topics
of interest to me in my own mystical quest for "truth" of "heart" and
"soul."
I hope it is of interest to you as you journey through
your own
worldly adventure.
Sincerely,
DKing
