Man is body, soul and spirit.
First attention the body attention is one every man agrees on. We get glimses of second attention here.
Second attention is when our third eye or Seeing begins to happen. It is not a pleasant experience. Sorcerer's World. We get glimses of third attention here.
Third attention is Clarity.
There is one Baptism. It has three aspects. Spirit has three aspects symbolised by the three Hebrew letters Mem M, Aleph A, and Shin Sh.
These symbolise Water, Air and Fire respectively.
The First Baptism, is Water. Symbolised by the Flood story in the bible. We are lifted above humanity and the Earth To see from a higher vantage point. This is "Stopping the World." The Flood is when reaffirmations become constant. We open the window (third eye) in the ark and let out a crow (negative experiences). Then we let out a dove (a glimse of air which we will be moving into next) The dove returns with an olive branch. (a glimse of the fire or third stage of baptism. The olive branch produces olives which are crushed to produce olive oil to burn in lamps.)
The Second Baptism is Air. For me this was the vision of Jacob's Ladder/Coat of Many Colors. a column of living light with all the colors of the rainbow only More Color. It came down from above and went through me and into the earth and kept going. there were flames licking me up and down and through me. Like butterflies. The colors of the Bands of light were Pink in the middle, changing but staying in shades of pink. See Don Juan's description of the Great Bands of Emanation. It felt like love. Don Juan said in his description that the religious man would say that the Great Bands were the love of God and that the man of knowledge and the religious man were really saying the same thing.
The flames were a "glimse" of what was to come.
The Third baptism is Fire. For me it was while I was in deep meditation. An Energy came down from high above and my feet began to heat up. A sound started building in my head and both heat and sound grew as the heat traveled up my legs. It got so hot and the sound so loud that I knew that if I did not get out of my body one or the other the heat (burn me up) or the sound (tear me apart) would destroy me. I got out of my body through the top of my head and was grabbed and pulled up at great speed to a very high place. I was without a body spread out in an ocean of bluish white liquid lightening. Like a lightning bolt but not a bolt, an ocean that went in every direction forever.
The sound was tremendous but after getting myself calmed, it became ecstasy. I was feeling what it was feeling.
This was a glimse of what was to come. This actually happened First, before the Coat experience. This confused me for so long. It was the beginning of a PROCESS that has been working within me ever since.
The Baptism is ONE. The word formed by the three letters, Mem, Aleph and Shin is FIRE.
Baptism is a cleansing of wrong thinking. It is the process by which we are enabled to SEE REALITY.
I am beginning to experience the Clarity which is the Third Attention.
