As above - so below.

[aged hippy]

If the oft-quoted saying "As above - so below" is correct -- that is; everything in the spiritual plane has a parallel on the earthly plane -- and if God is love, could it be that the force of gravity is the parallel (on the earthly plane) of the love God feels for all?


Peace, Love, & Light

I like that idea! (If I understood you right : ) Do you mean earth pulls us toward itself with gravity as God pulls us toward itself...our true divine Self/God/Spirit/Self realization?

Yes, that's how i see it and was just wondering if it had occurred to anyone else or if anyone else saw it that way.

Well, it has not come to my consciousness yet in that way. I understand /understood "as above - so below" to be "as within - so without", but both sayings are still in the concept of duality. It Truth/Spirit there is no above or below, within or without. These are merely concept of the mind.

I look at it inwardly and think it refers to the conscious and unconscious minds. A belief in parallel universes could be a projection of the parallel of the conscious and unconscious minds.
