2023-12-2115 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTHE ZODIACSend us a textEugene starts with a circle to represent the universe, but makes the point that it could be used to represent any encapsulated zone of energy, all the way down to a human being, or indeed, a virus. He starts with the AIR triad, with the cardinal sign of Libra, which symbolises the perceptual field and intellectual formulation. He stresses the need for clear definition of terms for intellectual discourse. In Libra is the balance of all possible percepts; an equilibrated, formulated field, under the dominion of Venus, and therefore biased towards pleasure. This...
2023-09-201h 32EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTOP ECONOMYSend us a textEugene begins by defining ‘Top Economy’ “Local intelligences, supplied with the appropriate information, are better equipped to solve local problems than a central intelligence in the metropolis far away.” He then applies this concept, designed for local decision-making of governments and town councils, to the human body.There is an exact correspondence between macrocosmos, the universe, and the microcosmos of the human being. In the body each organ has its own intelligence, as to its functioning, which is superior to that of the centralised intelligence of the human brain. For example, the kidn...
2023-09-201h 31EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastYOGIC ALIGNMENTSend us a textIn Yoga this means aligning all the parts of the being in one, unified direction. The parts to be aligned are the urges from below, the feelings from the chest region, and the thinking in the head. If we put numbers on these then we have a single appetite in the belly, two feelings in the chest: like/dislike and, in the head, five specialised sense organs, all connected by a coordinating spine. These are not normally aligned at all. The purpose of doing so is to attain a much higher level of...

Why we do not act upon the knowledge we have is our life’s work.Reproduction occurs by cell-division from our first ancestor, an...
2023-09-201h 23EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastVOCABULARYSend us a textMost of our vocabulary is acquired as children and remains ‘passive’.The terms we use are mostly not defined and their implications are not examined. Our words are learned in social situations and with emotive overtones; e.g. the word ‘naughty’. So when we hear a particular word we receive with it some reference to other things and to emotional tones which condition our reaction to it.The superiority of the human being over other animals depended upon its capacity for mimicry. Human hunters learned to copy the sounds made by animals...
2023-09-201h 27EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastPHENOMENOLOGYSend us a textEugene begins the talk light-heartedly and reminds the audience of the use of the hand as a mnemonic device. Then from a definition from the audience of phenomenology as ‘having a think’ he mentions that there is suggestion that Husserl the originator of phenomenology had had influence from Oriental philosophy, then states that phenom. is about getting to the essential datum of consciousness. He stress that all things, relations, everything is internal to consciousness. ‘Phenomenon’ means appearance and all things appear in consciousness in some form. Every human is a centre of a field or...
2023-09-191h 13EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastYOGA OF LISTENINGSend us a textEugene begins by saying that the talk is going to be about sound and listening to sound, a yoga called ‘Nada Yoga’. He equates the word ‘nada’ with the ‘logos’ of the fourth gospel. In the beginning was creative sound. The Universe, and everything in it, was created by vibrations, by the undulations of a force. Space is a ‘sonoriferous ether’, the medium in which this force operates. For any motion to occur in this ether there has to be a contraction of it onto a point. “Every motion in the universe begins with a contraction...
2023-09-191h 17EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastREFLEXIVITYSend us a textThe question Eugene addresses is the meaning of the term ‘reflexivity’. He draws a circle and then another round it, then two more, making four concentric rings, but says he should really draw seven. He draws a horizontal line passing through the centre and writes ‘H’ for ‘Hierarchy’ above the line and ‘M’ for Matter below it. The Hierarchy is based on initiative, the Matter on inertia. He numbers the circles 1-7 from both the top and the bottom, so that the number 4 is in the centre, whichever way we count, up or down. Number 1 h...

The ‘All’ has to be analysed because we are in a fallen state: fallen from wholeness into partiality; the preference for one thing rather than another. He draws a circle, and then a horizontal diameter to cut the ‘All’ in half. This ‘parting’ of the circle does not destroy the wholeness of it. The wholeness is a continuum and so cannot be parted, but we can talk about it being parted as an intellectual exercise to clarify it to ourselves. We think that there are parts...

2023-08-311h 18EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTETRAGAMMATRONSend us a textEugene starts by drawing the symbols represented by the above name. It is the name of God. Christians would translate it as ‘Jehovah’ but orthodox Jews would say Adonai ‘Lord’. He asks for four volunteers to shout each of the four letters simultaneously. This is because, to Jewish Orthodoxy, the name of God is unpronounceable as the four letters should be sounded simultaneously.He then writes the letters vertically, to represent a simple drawing of a man. It also represents God because the phallic power is rooted in the heart, so “God’s inte...
2023-08-311h 16EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastSYMBOLOGY OF THE LAMPSend us a textEugene starts with a simple drawing of an earthenware oil lamp containing olive oil and a wick. The olive oil symbolises ‘life-force’ (love). All life is love. He gives the example of petrol, a fuel created by the ‘love-life’ of millions of minute, marine animals over millennia. ‘Life’ in English = ‘Lieben’ in German, ‘to love.’ They share the same root. The more we love the more we live. ‘God is Love’ is a metaphysically accurate statement. Olive oil was used for thousands of years as a means of light.Life and love are both necessarily gen...
2023-08-311h 34EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastSURVIVALSend us a textEugene considers the difficult problem of the effects of a nuclear war upon survivors and “even those who do not.” Very big shocks to our lives tend to sharpen our awareness. We might then become aware that whatever we do will have effects which could be far away but will be reflected back to each causal centre. This is, in fact, a reality right now. We are just not aware of it. We are all centres of energy broadcasting at various levels: physical, emotional, mentational, conceptual, volitional; to everyone. By increasing our sensitivity we c...
2023-08-311h 19EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastSEX AFTER DEATHSend us a textEugene begins by explaining how the title of this talk came about. He takes a brown pencil and begins to draw on the OHP the profile of a man’s head. He says he is going to put into the head three kinds of soul. He defines a soul as “a zone of encapsulated Sentient Power.” In the centre of this head he draws two overlapping circles, one for ‘cognition’ and one for ‘evaluation’, and encloses both within a larger circle he labels ‘ratio’. In the overlapping segment of the two circles he writes ‘soul’. “Th...
2023-08-311h 17EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastSERIAL THINKING & LOGOSSend us a textEugene begins by stating that his aim is: “to show that serial thinking has a very definite purpose of its own quite opposite to the simultaneous, Logos reasoning process.” Evolution has resulted in man having reached the level when he can think serially. We know that we come from the same protoplasm as all living things, back through the animals and plants, and that we share with them ‘irritability’. Man, in relation to the universe, is in a similar position to the phagocytes in our bloodstream who feed on bacteria there with no awarenes...
2023-08-311h 32EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastREINCARNATIONSend us a textEugene is asked the question: does the same spirit or soul reconstitute again?He answers by saying that there are various views which can only be resolved “by returning to very abstract principles of mathematics.” He firstly, defines ‘soul’ as “an encapsulated zone of Sentient Power.” As such, it could “reincarnate into many different situations.” Each situation would result in that soul becoming characterised by its experiences. Such a soul would be able to recognise itself if it were able to assemble the same pattern of responses that it had before. He gives the exampl...
2023-08-3159 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastNUCLEAR WARSend us a textEugene starts with a diagram to represent involution. (This is a large V standing in a square.) The square represents us, in the material world. As the Absolute Spirit (Apeiron) descends, it gets progressively more dense. (The ‘den’ in dense means judgement, and spirit, as it descends, increases the number of judgements we make inside ourselves.) Above the V is Infinite: ‘Apeiron’. Its first definition is the circle of the macrocosmos. Inside this it posits smaller circles, some of which are us. The Hebrew word ‘Torah’ is the same as the Sanskrit ‘Dharma’. Both mean ‘The L...
2023-08-031h 06EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastPEARL OF GREAT PRICESend us a textEugene begins by asking David about tonight’s topic. David replies with the title but Eugene changes it to ‘Peril of Great Price’. The oyster is an ancient joke about a woman: you have to swallow it (her) whole, you cannot chew (analyse) it. An oyster is soft-bodied, with little structure, but a hard case round it. “The hard case is a defence that any woman has against external structure.” Inside the shell is a very sensitive being, able to sense changes in moon phases. (Many marine creatures come to the surface just before ful...
2023-08-031h 26EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastLAST WORDSSend us a textQuestion: There is obviously a way to die properly?E.H: He suggests that living and dying is a question of convenience and that we cannot fully die unless we are fully engaged in living. Wholly living and wholly dying go together. Most people are not fully in their bodies but instead are “dreaming” about situations they would rather be in and “you cannot die efficiently in the middle of a dream.” We have to be fully incarnate in the body before we can let go of it.We all like to...
2023-08-031h 25EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastLAST JUDGEMENTSend us a textEugene begins by analysing the word ‘judgement’. The ‘Last Judgement’ is “that condition in which a being puts itself when, by affirmative power, it divides or analyses its own substantiality in its triple aspect of force, form, function; or will, idea and activity, and to count it, evaluate it, and then to nail oneself on that so that it is permanently fixated.” He says that every judgement is a ‘last one’ because we live in a moving present! Anyone can die, as they are judging something, either themselves or others, and that will be their last ju...
2023-08-031h 07EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastFOUR FIXED SIGNSSend us a textThe Zodiac is often used for predicting the future, Eugene is only concerned with using the four fixed signs in the present “because we live in the present and have never lived at any other time.” The four signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius and they correspond with the four Gospels of the New Testament.TAURUS symbolises Infinity, looping to encapsulate itself in a zone. This is creation. Taurus means ‘to turn’. “What is captured is a zone of chaos,” because, before creation, there is Infinite Power with no control. “The purpose of enc...
2023-08-031h 24EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastNO MINDSend us a textThis is a talk on Personal Integration. Scholars in the past have split the examination of knowledge into three parts: ontological, concerned with the things that are sensed; logical, concerned with the thoughts that we have about these things, or the ‘thinks’ of the things; and the third has been humorously called ‘moral’. Moral means how to keep the walls up in any system whatever, including a human being.i.e. “that which enables one to hold oneself together.” Eugene draws a hand as a mnemonic and places these on the fingers: ontological on the littl...
2023-08-031h 23EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastINTEGRATIONSend us a textEugene begins with a drawing of the human eye. “There is no depth in the retinal image.” He repeats this a number of times to fix it in our minds. He then uses the mnemonic of the hand, a “manual for remembering.” Body goes on the little finger, feeling (like/dislike) on the ring finger, mentation (serial thinking) on the middle finger, comprehension (simultaneous understanding) on the index finger, and initiative will on the thumb.He repeats: “There is no depth in the retinal image.” So everything that appears to have depth must h...
2023-08-031h 16EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastHIEROLOGYSend us a textThe word ‘Hieros’ used to be used for a person who, today, we would call a ‘priest’. Yet the two terms mean very different things: It is “a change from consideration of power, as such, to reason.”There are two ways of looking at human motivation. One is to assume that it should be based on reason, and the other is that it has no need to be rational “whenever it can get away with being irrational.” In the past, men of power could impose their will on others by brute force. There is no reas...

We are not training for time, we are training for eternity, we are working through time for the timeless for the absolutely permanent. We have got work to do as long as we have a physical body. If when we finish up on our deathbed we’ve accumulated enough directive forces in us to carry us into the next world with the right direction that is all we ought to hope for. Human birth is hard to get. To get into a human body and complete your ev...
2023-08-0357 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastMEDITATIONSend us a textEugene begins with the statement: “Mediation is providing a middle between two extremes.” We know about these two extremes from experience; order and chaos. He asks: “What would we be like if we had no bodies but simply a kind of presence, a kind of being, but not focussed on a body?” Like the ocean. To be a body you must have a perimeter. Without this, you cannot be a ‘self’. The Absolute, Sentient Power moves by positing a point of initiation, a zone of focus. Consciousness must be focussed. When we sleep we are not c...
2023-06-131h 29EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastLIFE IS HARDSend us a textEugene responds to an audience member who states “Life is hard and ends in death.”‘Hard” = HRD =Hierarchical, Discriminative, Division. “The ‘universe is hard’ means that, actually, there are differences of power and discriminative ability.” People are different in all manner of ways. They do not think, feel or will in the same way. “No two individuals are identical in any respect, that is the meaning of hard.”Everybody believes that death is certain, but what is it? It is the leaving of the life-principle which animates the physical body. He gives the example of...
2023-06-131h 15EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastMANIPURASend us a textOM “Means the pre-analytic wholeness of being, in two aspects: the ‘O’ is the intellective, not substantial; and the ‘M’ the substantial aspect of the same (God) “So the next word must be analysis.” AN means a serpent running. It tends to cross itself and make a closure. This creates an ‘island of being’. (B, in ‘being’ was originally a sphere, then drawn as a circle, then split.) It signifies “anything that can be circumscribed with a line and therefore recognised as a form.” The M means the substantial aspect of that sacred ‘OM. The English letter E is...

2023-06-131h 24EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastLUCK NUMBERSSend us a textEugene begins by defining ‘Lucky’ as “the capability to be in the right place at the right time and to be able to utilise the opportunities therein contained.” To ‘get lucky’ you have to be alert, to wake up. NUM means: “a motion of power in a substance” and is another form of the indivisible triad: force, form, function; force = will, form= intellect, function=activity. Similarly: thinking, feeling and willing. You can stress one more than the others but you cannot get rid of any one of the three. You cannot divide the substance: force...
2023-06-131h 18EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastHIERARCHY IN BODY CENTRES ( 1 0F 2 )Send us a textEugene begins by saying he is going to carry on from where he left off last time, to expand on what was said then. He starts with the question of centres in the human being related to “certain organic structures in the body.”Although it is usual to start with a definition of the subject matter, ‘sentience’ is undefinable. A synonym is ‘feeling’, which is the basis of all knowledge. Objects within sentience can be defined by the subject, but this subject is the observer, sentience itself. So sentience is the perceiving s...

2023-06-1346 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastPHILOSOPHERS STONESend us a textEugene begins by asking how long has talk of this been going on? He suggests approaching it from the idea of ‘stone’, S means ‘Spirit’, T means ‘fixation’ or ‘crucifixion’. N means both ‘negation’ and ‘intelligence’. “The fundamental idea in ‘ST one’ is that all matter is really spirit, self-fixated and when this stone is discovered it will confer immortality on the owner.” He then asks the audience: “What is mortality?” (There follows an interchange of ideas with members.) He defines the word ‘philosopher’: lover of ‘soph’, of wisdom. ‘Soph’ reversed is ‘phos’ which means ‘light’. So ‘soph’ actually means “the w...
2023-06-131h 19EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastREAL LOVESend us a textEugene begins by stating that he has been asked to talk about Creativity, Naiveness, Inhibition, Secrecy and Real, Actual Love. (“As if there is another kind.”) He defines Love as: “Working for the development of the potentialities of all beings.” He then defines ‘potentialities’. ‘Potential’ means ‘power held in’ and only power can hold power into a centre. If it does not then power will go out. Infinite Power makes a point, a centre, in order to finite Itself, to know Itself. To ‘be’ symbolises a sphere. We can flatten this sphere into a circle and see it in t...
2023-06-131h 26EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastINERTIASend us a textEugene says inertia is: “The biggest enemy and friend of the human race.” And he is going to show why that is so. He waves the paper to represent the Absolute, Sentient Power in motion – though ASP is, of course, in 3D, an Infinite continuum. When power contracts onto a centre it posits and when it releases that contraction, that centre ceases to be. Each point posited is a dot, a contraction of power. Human consciousness looking at a lot of dots, tries to tie them together into a shape. But the shapes are th...

The audience can all have an idea in the mind of a point that could be made on the sheet, as he has. He is going to make a point on the cellophane and asks the audience to give him an instruction of where to d...

2023-05-2249 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastFATHERHOODSend us a textThe word ‘Father’ means ‘to differentiate power’. Christ says we have a ‘Father in Heaven’. ‘Heaven’ is the zone of balance. When the Absolute, Sentient Power condensed itself to form the world, it pressed upon centres and the centres pressed back to a certain distance. Where these pressures balanced is the zone of Heaven, the place where two powers meet and press, a zone of equalisation of pressures. This is the ‘firmament’ in Genesis. The inward pressure is Saturn, the outward pressure Jupiter, the zone where they meet is Mercury. Mercury is the Greek Hermes, the Eg...
2023-05-221h 19EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastFREEDOMSend us a textEugene begins by examining the word ‘Freedom’ and drawing a diagram to illustrate. Before creation there was Infinite Light, the pure consciousness of Absolute, Sentient Power. Creation presupposes a shut down of the amount of light, into a finite. In order to produce an object the light must focus. (fo-cus means force-striking). The Infinite Field must focus onto a point, a reference centre. This is an in-ten sion of power (intention). “All form presupposes a positing of a point of reference.” This point is the first form. The moment a point is posited the spac...
2023-05-221h 15EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastGOD AS PROJECTIONISTSend us a textEugene introduces the analogy of the projectionist in the cinema. When we hear the word ‘God’ we should forget all we have been taught and just think “Generative, Intelligent Power.” The Universe we now know is entirely energy, power at work, and this power is sentient, it feels itself. We can prove this to ourselves quite easily by pressing a finger into any part. We immediately are aware of the pressure in our body at that point. This intelligent power has condensed into the entire universe and into all life-forms. Knowing that it is senti...
2023-05-221h 18EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastGOODNESS TRUTH AND BEAUTYSend us a textEugene begins by drawing the three-part man. Truth goes into the head, Beauty in the chest, and Goodness in the belly. Truth is perfection, as in a perfect circle, or a perfect straight line. A circle includes and excludes; it includes a finite amount of space and excludes an infinite amount. It is a synonym for rota, form, shape, sphere, eidos (idea), and for True. When we think we encapsulate forms, shapes of experiences, in ideas. If all of our ideas correspond with the external forms we see in the world then they...
2023-05-221h 30EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastHISTOLYSISSend us a textEugene begins with a definition: “the dissolution of the dividing walls which keep an organism in cellular condition.” Loosely, it is the clinical death of tissue. But “the process of histolysis means that all the cellular divisions which the one egg has made, have to be broken down.” He asks the audience to imagine that they could strip themselves of all cellular divisions, including skin, and allow their protoplasm to pool on the floor, “into one, colloidal mess.” He asks: “Would you like it?” Because you would not know who you were you. There would be n...
2023-05-221h 26EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastILLEGITIMACY OF GODSend us a textDespite its cryptic title, this talk explores the inner meaning of the concept of Law and how God is beyond all limitations. God, the Father is the creator of all laws yet remains free of any restrictions these laws may impose. The infinite power undulating not rotating is pre-legal. The only valid law is a law that can enforce itself. The word law cannot be used unless there is a binding, and therefore the infinite force that is there prior to first ensphering or circumscribing process is pre-legal. No man at any time...
2023-05-221h 15EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastGOD BECOMINGSend us a textEugene begins by drawing a circle to represent the skin surface of a human being. At the centre he draws a small circle to represent “the unassailable, impregnable” Immanent Spirit. “The power there is so great no stimulus from outside can enter into it.” A stimulus comes to a new baby and consciousness runs out to meet it and makes a record. This process is repeated endlessly and the records build up until they almost completely block the left side of the brain. Central to all is the child’s name. The right side of th...
2023-05-091h 17EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastLUCIENT FISHSend us a textAll thoughts are symbolic, so are all words. Every syllable, every letter, is a symbol for something. The F in ‘Fish’ can be written as V and the ‘Vish’ is in Vishnu, Shiva, Ishva. The creative, preserving and destroying gods are the same letters rearranged. ‘I’ is the principle of individuation, ‘H’ is hierarchy, ‘HR’ means ‘power differentiated’. “All hierarchies are built of power, and the power has grades, less power down there, more up here; initiative up here, inertia down there.” The V is drive, “the initiator of the act.” The ‘i’ is the point on which the Field focu...
2023-05-091h 17EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastLOVE AND DEATHSend us a textEugene begins by saying that to examine the idea of death he has to examine the opposite, because they are “mutually defining.” However, the opposite of death is not ‘life’ but ‘love’. The word ‘live’ refers to the individual (the ‘i’ signifies ‘individuation’) The word ‘love’ requires another being, two or more are needed. Death means ‘disintegration’, and in this sense, death of the physical body occurs when it disintegrates. But the D in ‘death’ signifies division and also a door. For the soul it is not an end but a door from one state of being to another.
2023-05-091h 32EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastHERE AND NOWSend us a textThe ‘Here and Now’ is about Space and Time. E.H. illustrates this with printed music and ledger lines. The musical stave is the ‘space’ and the movement along it is ‘time’. On a piano keyboard we have space and the speed at which we play is time. Playing involves energy expenditure; the faster we play the greater the energy expended. So we have space, time and energy expended. (space, time, power.) ‘Time’ turned backwards, is ‘emit’; energy is released at every moment by an existential observer of time. i.e. you cannot observe time without...
2023-05-091h 17EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastGOD OR FIELDSend us a textEugene begins by declaring that he is going to state clearly his thinking on this question in reply to some who have challenged him about it. He mentions Thomas Aquinas, and others, who have tried to prove the existence of God by logic. Today, we can do something similar because we now know, scientifically, that all ‘matter’ is energy. William Blake said “Energy is of the body,” but Eugene turns this around “The body is energy.” In philosophy there have been monists, dualists and pluralists. The monists think there can be only one fundamental...
2023-05-091h 20EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastHEAVENLY JERUSALEMSend us a textEugene begins by drawing a circle with a cube inside. This is his picture of a Heavenly Jerusalem, the City of Peace. A circle is a sacred enclosure and represents a sphere. It is a sphere of influence to protect it from the infinity of possibilities outside. The central point is posited first and then the power posited there heaves itself up to a certain distance and then rotates, making a periphery around the central point. All activities start with a point; the point of initiative, an atom, a planet, a thought, a...
2023-05-091h 06EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastYOGASend us a textA talk of about one and a half hours on the subject Yoga given in Liverpool in the early 1960sThe talk starts by looking at the origins of the word Yoga and the link to the word religion. Religion is a quite legitimate translation of the word Yoga. Religion means to yoke back to the source of being, the practice of Yoga is an attempt to return to the relationship that was once ours in the infinite and the Yogi aspires to join him or herself to infinite power. There...

Eugene begins by restating the mnemonic of the hand: Thumb is Will, first finger is intellect, but now divided into two parts; upper and lower, middle finger is the preferred response, also divided into upper and lower, third finger bio-field, and little finger, physical body. The will is the initiative, and therefore prior to everything else. The intellect is of two kinds: the higher mind which can consider the highest ideas, such as truth, the cosmic or logos mind; and the lower...
2023-05-091h 16EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastON JESUSSend us a text“All anti-Semitism is anti-Christian.” Jesus claimed to be the Messiah, the embodiment of God on earth. He represented the goal of the human race. He was the first to attain that goal and he laid down a method for others to attain that same goal. He claimed, and demonstrated, complete control over his own organism and that every other human being who believed him and followed his recommendations would become like him. They would be sons of God also. Others had predated him: Zarathustra in Persia was persecuted and killed, but not by his...
2023-05-091h 33EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTHE FALLSend us a textA baby is an open sensorium. It is a feeling being. They turn over in the womb to make themselves comfortable. The baby is feeling its body and it does this in a kind of dream state, rather like a caterpillar pupating to become a butterfly. The caterpillar makes for itself a chrysalis and then “dreams it way’ through to emerge as a butterfly; the perfect insect. The Greek word for ‘butterfly’ is ‘psyche’, also the word for ‘soul’. In the same way, the human is encased in a physical body and “dreams its way” through t...
2023-03-131h 19EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTHE EXISTENCE OF GODSend us a textEugene begins with the observation that church leaders seem to be doubtful about a possible proof for the existence of God, along with doubts about many of the articles of faith previously held.To prove is to probe and we cannot probe anything outside ourselves without probing inside. Our sense organs tell us there is an external world and we know that we have an internal world more or less correspondent with it. Some thinkers have put forward a philosophy of dualism between mind and matter, or sometimes spirit and body. Body...

2023-03-131h 19EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastFIRST LOVESend us a textEugene says the talk is prompted by a young woman who thought she had fallen in love for the first time. He describes a young woman who has decided she is going to become the perfect , hermaphroditic being. Then she meets the perfect young man and her chemistry becomes unbalanced. She “falls in love.” Her intention of becoming the perfect hermaphrodite loses glamour. She falls towards the feminine pole of being. Her intelligence disappears, along with her intention of becoming perfect.However, when the ‘messiah’ comes there rises in her soul an impul...
2023-03-131h 21EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastENLIGHTENMENTSend us a textEugene compares Eastern and Western approaches to this. Because everybody’s grass seems greener, we tend to think of enlightenment as being somewhere other than where we are. Many have gone to the East, to India and China to seek it. However, in China, many have gone to the West to seek it, to India. The terms ‘East’ and ‘West’ do not refer to geography but to the human body. The East is the consciousness in the centre of our body, the West is the body itself, the physical world. The sun, the light of c...

2023-03-131h 28EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastCORKSSend us a textEugene begins by explaining the statement in the bible: “I have loved Jacob and hated Esau.” Esau was “a hairy man,” uncivilised, but Jacob made a great civilisation. The nomadic way of life, represented by Esau, cannot progress but remains fixated in its ways because it is always on the move. For humans to develop, they had to settle down and make a civilisation, in order to evolve.We can think of the universe as a great ocean of energy surrounded by a spinning belt of power to hold it in. Beyond t...
2023-03-131h 08EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastCOSMO SEXUAL POLARITYSend us a textEugene begins by exploring the concept of transcendence. He describes the state of the Infinite before creation began. The sentience and power of the Absolute are inseparable and the power must be used in order for Infinity to feel itself. For this to happen there had to be movement and this resulted in the production of wave motions within Itself. These motions are the ‘ananda’ of the Yogis, uninterrupted bliss. Where such motions intersect with others there appeared vortical spin zones. Such “arking” produced zones of increased self-resistance and therefore self-awareness. Each such “ark” is a...
2023-03-131h 22EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastBOWL OF CHERRIESSend us a textEugene begins by saying that he is going to talk about the last thing we might say before death. When the Buddha was dying, his disciples asked him for a final teaching, a ‘special secret’ perhaps? His reply was, “I am not he of the closed fist,” and then he died. A second example is of a wise, old rabbi. Again, the disciples gathered around him and asked for a final message. This was: “Life is a bowl of cherries.” His followers could not understand and eventually went back to him for an explanation...

EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTHE COMING OF THE MESSIAHSend us a textEugene begins by writing the numbers 0 – 6 vertically, to give seven numbers. The zero at the top signifies God prior to creation, and therefore contains all forms within Him. This zero is “God with Logos.” He takes the word ‘Logos’ and analyses it, drawing a diagram of a six-spoked wheel.Thereis an L (Lambda), G (Gamma), two ‘O’s and an ’S’. Lambda means ‘light’, ‘total awareness’ and Gamma means ‘dark, unconscious’. Lambda means ‘spirit’, Gamma means ‘matter’. But the matter is only spirit condensed to provide itself with a resistance. So there is no duality here, “God with Lo...
2023-02-1356 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastBEAUTY, TRICKERY AND SUFFERINGSend us a textEugene starts with a dot, a red dot. ‘Red’ means “a vibratory process of life, creating a division.” The dot is the first point of condensation of the Infinite Power. “the dot is a point of concentration of that power, by that power, for that power.” Before the positing of a point, the Sentient Power is an extended Field with no content. Without a content the Power has “no profit to Itself.” One dot creates the possibility of other dots, and though the relation of the Infinite to a single dot is relatively simple, to a plu...
2023-02-131h 15EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastBODY WISDOMSend us a textEugene begins by saying that he is going to talk about the wisdom in the body, and not of it. He defines wisdom as “total knowledge in its simultaneity.” Anything less may be knowledge, but it is not wisdom. We have extensive knowledge of the body from the world of empirical science, but the accumulation of this knowledge does not give us ‘body wisdom’.Taking a body to pieces may give us information about it and make us feel clever that we can do this, but the exact opposite is to observe and understa...
2023-02-131h 33EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTHE BUDDHIST WHEEL (1)Send us a textThere is only one being, and all functions of this being produce, apparently, a plurality of beings. But these beings are fundamentally one being, who is the host- and the plurality are the guests within the house. The Buddhist Wheel, called the Wheel of Life is usually described as a wheel illustrating six totally different realms. The talk illustrates in detail the six realms. The wheel of the gods, the titans, the men, animals, hungry fellows, and the beings in hell, is dependently originated on desire-aversion-egotism. Therefore the cure of desire, aversion and...
2023-02-1353 minEUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastAPISSend us a textEugene begins by writing the word ‘APIS’ on the screen and asking the audience what it means.Answer: ‘BEE’ to the Romans, but ‘BULL’ to the Egyptians. It is also the name ‘Joseph’. He draws a wave to represent the Absolute. The ‘Absolute’ is Ab: Father, Sol: Son, ute: Holy Ghost; a triplicity of powers. ‘A’ is also ‘Aleph’, (Alpha). ‘Ah’ indicates ‘prime breathing’ and is the primary phonetic symbol for the Absolute, Sentient Power. The Absolute has a three-fold function of form, feeling and will, appearing as a two-fold polarity of power and sentience. The triangle re...
2023-02-131h 09EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastADVICE TO YOUNG GIRLSSend us a textLife is an energy, that energy is able to tense itself, and that tension, that power of focus we call masculine. To bring consciousness to a point is masculine; to leave it spread out is feminine. An example is while driving a car, normally when driving a car you drive with your consciousness spread out, the moment you see the possibility of danger you convert from the feminine to the masculine, you converge. There are two kinds of awareness convergent-masculine, spread-feminine. But to make the change between the masculine and feminine you have...
2023-02-131h 27EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastAPOCALYPSESend us a textEugene begins by saying that the prophets in the earliest times were men who were persecuted and killed for speaking out against the wickedness of the rulers. An example being that of John the Baptist who criticised Herod for marrying his brother’s wife, Herodias. The prophets heard voices inside themselves and declared these to be divine in origin, and so it was their duty to speak out. Some of these had ‘visions’ instead of voices and began to make ‘apocalyptic writings’ in which they could disguise what they were saying so that the rulers...
2023-02-131h 13EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastAPPLYING WHAT WE KNOWSend us a textEugene begins with the observation that, although all humans have the same origin, we are always at war with others. Not just nations but tribes, families, neighbours. Why have we not learned the lesson of history that all such quarrels do not bring lasting peace? The answer is “inertia,” the tendency to carry on doing what we are doing. This inertia is at all levels in us, physical, emotional and mentational. All are habitual and all are acquired from outside of ourselves, from parents and other educators, and from wider society. We are cond...
2023-02-131h 15EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastARROGANCESend us a textEugene begins by asking his audience for the meaning of the word ‘arrogance’. He gives a dictionary definition: ‘The taking to ourself, of anything whatever, without entitlement.’ He distinguishes between the Godhead, the Infinite, Sentient Power, and God as creator. The Infinite Field winds in and posits a point. We are all such points of reference within the Infinite Power Field.As long as we remember this we are not arrogant. The problem is that the Infinite has made many such points, which produces contingent relation between them. The Field winds in but cann...

(‘Ground’ is G-round: the going round of energy.) Opposite to the ‘dead’ are the ‘quick’, the ‘wicca’. He uses the mnemonic of ‘Whicker’s World’ (a popular TV programme at the time,) WICR: ‘Worship is Continual Remembrance’. Remembrance of what? To remember is to re...
2023-02-131h 24EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastTHE DEMONICSend us a textEugene begins by analysing the word ‘papyrus’. To the Egyptians the word meant more than ‘paper’. It represented the three-fold function of the Absolute, the Trinity; the same trinity that we find in all the ancient religions. He asks the audience to imagine a sheet of paper infinitely extended in space in three dimensions. This ‘papyrus’ now represents “a three-dimensional continuum of power, total reality.” The waving of the paper represents modalities, ways of operation of that power. This power is infinite and eternal and has no barriers. It must, therefore, introduce them into Itself to c...
2023-02-061h 16EUGENE HALLIDAY PodcastDESIRE AND THE EGOSend us a textEugene is asked 3 questions: 1. How to still desire. 2. How to use intelligently, the egotism with which we are burdened. 3. What is the origin of all true religion?1. Stilling Desire. He says that “desire is not to be stilled but a worthwhile object for it is to be attained.” Desire is a force, an energy, and is essential within us. Desire is always towards or away from a stimulus. If we were to try and sit still and do nothing, we would find it impossible. Energy coming through us from the Absolute, Sent...

He says “There isn’t any.” He goes back to the fundamental idea that dualism is impossible and asks someone to say why. The proof is that absolute un-likes could not communicate and therefore there cannot be more than one basic reality. As human beings, two facts are obvious to us: we have physicality, in our bodies, and we have consciousness of it, and of our ideas and feelings. These two facts interact with each other. Our volition, thoughts and feelings interact with our bo...
