“If we purify ourselves of wickedness, then we will come to see invisible realities. But there is no point, while we are still blind, in asking why it is we cannot see the LIGHT, no point in suffering our ears and then asking why it is we cannot hear anything. “
— John of Apamea
John of Apamea is a breath of fresh air today because in the resilience of the soul, the backdrop of his words of wisdom is ringing loudly in my soul! It is said of “2John of Apamea (fl. early 5th cent.), he was a Syriac spiritual writer, he is also known as John the Solitary. His writings include a ‘Dialogue on the Soul’.”
Livingstone points out that John of Apamea is also known as :
“2John the Scot (c.810–c.877), who was a philosopher. He was also an Irishman, that became head of the palace school at Laon.
His philosophy is an attempt to reconcile the *Neoplatonist idea of emanation with the Christian idea of creation. In his Periphyseon or De Divisione Naturae, Erigena argues that Nature should be divided into four categories:
First, Nature which is not created, but creates, i.e. God;
Secondly, Nature which is created and which creates, i.e. the world of primordial causes or Platonic ideas;
Thirdly, Nature which is created and which does not create, i.e. things perceived through the senses;
and lastly, Nature which neither creates nor is created, i.e. God, to whom all things must in the end return. Thus the world was held to begin and end with God.
In the 13th century this treatise was condemned. Erigena also wrote De Divina Praedestinatione against *Gottshalk. Having a knowledge of Greek which was exceptional for his time, he translated into Latin the writings of *Dionysius the Pseudo-Areopagite and wrote a commentary on his Celestial Hierarchy, and translated works of *Maximus the Confessor and Gregory of Nyssa.” Just as others before their time exemplified a radiance of Light that No One on Earth could understand, so to is the learner on the pathway of Light receiving from the Heavens all that which was knowledge to help others along their path. In doing so, we find that most of us go into a contemplative state of silence because to put into words the manifestations of the Heavens, would be called into action of someone who is crazy or out of their mind because the lay person cannot conceive it. That is why God, the divine one, intimately hid himself in each one of us and as we go about our lives, fighting and displaying anger at the situations we find ourselves in, we do not innerstand the workings of bringing such a powerful force out of us but John of Apamea, while in the Silence knew of the greatness within him. He shined his light in places of darkness just as all the Masters of Earth had done and he fulfilled his mission by letting us know of some of the vast knowledge and teachings that were known in the 1600’s.
In honoring the works of John of Apamea today, we are so blessed to have an understanding of the magnitude of insight of his talents and creativity that he offered us in his time! We pay homage to his life and can thoroughly appreciate his good works to mankind!
We must continue to remain vigilant in our quest to find ourselves. In the very recesses of our minds lay dormant the LIGHT of inner standing to catapult the heart into a quickening state as we align our inner bodies with words of affirmations, and stating out loud our decrees several times throughout the day, it will begin to saturate our entire being with greater LIGHT and the abundance of pure LOVE TO STRENGTHEN US, to awaken us from our slumber and to manifest the changes that will ensue immediately in our lives. Usher in the changes of this new wave of energy that will purify each one with its intense LIGHT.
Let your light shine today as we rest our attention on our four lower bodies and allowing the light to come into our being and world to descend into our bodies now and attuning our hearts and minds with the elements of the Earth and Mother Gaia as our clearest focus and attention rest on our Ascension into the Light of God in the Great Central Sun. Sine through us, the unlimited light of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit today. Bless Us with the fruit of thy wound Jesus and wash us in the blood of the lamb as we are so purified by your Love of us. BeMing down to us and projecting Your Heart Rays of every color known to man, we see thy Light filling us with all that we need in our lives. Fill us with thy Light and Love of Victorious Accomplishments as we are successful in our personal lives and activities let that same activity be in us as we go about our professional lives dealing with complicated issues, challenges that we are up against that seem to defeat us at every turn, blast blast blast that out of our trajectory and allow for the Love to purify and sustain all obstacles professionally and personally in our day to day lives. Purify us in that Sacred Fire of the Violet Consuming Flame as we honor thy light now.

Prayer Invocation
In the name of my Beloved Mighty ‘I AM Presence’ thou art thy greatest Sun of all Life and Light. Saturate all of the Atmosphere, as you are projecting down from the company of Heaven the most intensified energies that will bathe the entire planet with intense LIGHT and LOVE!
