The Odyssey of Your Soul
A Lecture by Elizabeth Clare Prophet
July 9, 1997 1:35-3:22, 3:46-5:44 p.m. PDT (3h 45m)
(Heart to Heart Summit University Seminar)
San Diego State University, San Diego, California
"The odyssey of your soul. That's what this session of Summit University is all about. How many of you know what the word "odyssey" means? An "odyssey" is a long wandering or voyage, usually marked by many changes of fortune. "Odyssey" is also used to describe an intellectual or spiritual wandering or quest. The word is taken from the epic poem written by Homer called "The Odyssey."
"The Odyssey" recounts the long and challenging journey of the Greek hero Odysseus as he sails home after the Trojan War. Homer's magical tale is an archetype, it's an archetypal story of the initiation and soul evolution. The story of Odysseus is the story of your own soul--and of everyone who embarks upon a spiritual quest.
Each of his adventures--on sea or on land--is a rite of passage. If we can understand his lessons, we will be better prepared for our own spiritual odyssey which, come what may, may be just around the corner . And so that 's exactly what we 're going to do--we 're going to use the adventures of Odysseus to map the odyssey of our own soul. Once we have mapped the odyssey of our soul, we will have a map. We will know where we are going. And where we are going is that quest, rising from the seat-of-the-soul chakra up the levels of being until we gain reunion with our Holy Christ Self.
Historically, little is known about Homer, but most scholars believe he wrote "The Iliad" and "The Odyssey" in the 8th or 9th century B.C. As some of you know, Homer was an incarnation of the Maha Chohan, the Ascended Master who is the Representative of the Holy Spirit. The sponsoring Masters of this quarter, as I have told you, are El Morya, Kuthumi and Djwal Kul . They have a very special relationship to the Maha Chohan , who is also called The Great Lord ...
So in this session of Summit University, ... we will study the wisdom of their own Guru, the Maha Chohan. First, let me introduce you to our hero, Odysseus. (In Latin his name is Ulysses.) Odysseus is not the biggest and brawniest of the Greek heroes. But he is the most intelligent. He is renowned as a master strategist. His character--like our own--is complex.
He has character strengths and character weaknesses, just as we do . Odysseus is courageous, ingenious, resourceful, wise, good hearted, loyal and enterprising.
[Endnote 3: : Oxford Classical Dict, p617 col 2]
But he is also hot tempered, curious, arrogant, egotistical, proud and rash. His task is to transform his human character traits into their divine counterparts. We must do the same. He must also balance the karma he makes by acting rashly--which he has a habit of doing.
Reaping what you sow--the law of karma--is one of Homer's themes. For in the opening scene of "The Odyssey," Zeus proclaims before the gods gathered on Mount Olympus: "How men blame the gods for their ills, when in fact it is by their own folly that they get woes beyond measure!"
[Endnote 4: : Standford, Odysseus, Man of Action , p 10]
The name "Odysseus" means "trouble." [laughter] In the context of Homer's tale, "trouble" can be interpreted as "karma." And wherever Odysseus turns, trouble is close behind. Have you ever said to yourself, "Everywhere I turn, I just can't seem to get away from trouble!" We all have our troubles--our karma. That 's a given. It's part of the human equation. The question is: What are we going to do about it? And that's the pivotal teaching of this entire course. What are we going to do about it? How are we going to deal with that karma? Are we going to see ourselves as victims? Or, like Odysseus, are we going to meet the challenge head-on, no matter what the price? Are we willing to do what it takes to return "home"--home to God?
As we explore the journey of Odysseus, remember this: for all of its vivid color, his odyssey is not just a series of wild adventures. It is highly symbolic. First and foremost, the drama of Odysseus is an inner drama. The men on his crew represent elements of himself--parts of his own character he must come to grips with.
The ogres, the temptresses, and the monsters he meets along the way are also parts of his own personality that he can no longer afford to ignore. And I say to all of you, students of the Ascended Masters, none of us can in any way afford to ignore the situation of our karma.
You have heard it said that the traits we most dislike in others are actually our own negative traits. Since we don't want to acknowledge that we have these traits, we unconsciously project them onto other people or situations. In Jungian terms, we project our "shadow"--the part of ourselves that we don't know or that we don't like--onto someone outside of ourselves.
[Endnote 5: : Parabola Magazine Summer 1997 p22, 20; Riding Dragon, Angwin, p. 29]
That's the trick our unconscious plays to get us to pay attention to it. So, in each of his adventures, Odysseus is forced to acknowledge and then deal with another unwelcome element of his own lower self. For the very same reason do we sit in this hall today. Or, he has to learn to integrate with a part of himself that he has disowned. And we must do the same again .
Now, Odysseus has his faults. But he is also made of the stuff heroes are made of. What is he made of? Listen well, for these are the factors that will make you a hero as well.
1 Odysseus keeps his eye on his goal. [Pause] Odysseus keeps his mind on his goal.
2 He is not afraid to make a mistake.
3 He courageously accepts and faces his trials.
4 When he makes a mistake, he bounces back.
5 He learns from his mistakes.
6 He's not afraid of pain.
7 He endures.
8 He is open to discovering more about his inner self. He is willing to sail on the uncharted seas of his psyche.
9 He doesn't dwell on the past.
10 He respects the gods.
11 He is obedient to their directions.
12 He has a spiritual teacher who intercedes for him.
Now the gods in that case can be seen as Ascended Masters (we as their students) and we are apprenticed to them. In the case of Odysseus, his teacher is the goddess Pallas Athena, daughter of Zeus. Sections of "The Odyssey" are a tender tribute to Athena. And no wonder--the Maha Chohan's twin flame, or soul-partner, is the Ascended Lady Master Pallas Athena.
In the Odyssey, Pallas Athena is Odysseus' guide and friend. She is his mentor, and he is her protégé. She works behind the scenes to get him back on track. Ultimately, without her intercession, he would never have made it. But he himself has earned that sponsorship because he is determined to stand, face and conquer. In fact, he so mirrors her own qualities that she is compelled to befriend him.
Homeric scholar Howard Clark writes: "Athena protects Odysseus because he has the skill and cleverness and strength that are also her characteristics....When a Homeric hero is assisted by a god it is not a sign that he is weak, but rather that he is strong."
[Endnote 6: : Howard W. Clarke, The Art of the Odyssey , p. 13]
What is most amazing about "The Odyssey" is that the trials of Odysseus remarkably correspond to the 12 signs of the zodiac and to the 12 initiations of the cosmic clock. So, for each episode of the Odyssey, we will examine how each of the adventures of Odysseus correspond to the initiations we mark on the 12 lines of the cosmic clock. We will study how each of his challenges reflects the challenges we all face on the corresponding sign of the zodiac. We will also explore the spiritual lessons of each adventure and how we have faced the same tests ourselves. Finally, we will talk about some practical ways you can navigate through the challenges of your own odyssey. ..."

![]() Doctor reveals dark reason near-death experiences sending people to HELL are far more common than believed Daily Mail,
A doctor who studied the science of near-death experiences has revealed the dark reasons more people who almost died saw a terrifying vision of hell than is generally believed. According to New Zealand-based scientist and author Dr Orson Wedgwood, only ten to 20 percent of people who are clinically declared dead, meaning their heart stopped beating, ever have an out-of-body experience and allegedly see the afterlife. Out of this group, just a small portion claimed that their experience was negative, with half of these individuals saying they ended up in a realm that seemed like hell. However, Wedgwood told the Daily Mail those figures are likely incorrect, with more people who nearly died having out-of-body experiences and many more being sent to hell and encountering demonic imagery. Wedgwood said: 'Some people may not report them because they are ashamed, or some may not remember due to dissociative amnesia, [that is] the experience was so horrific the brain stops them remembering it to avoid reliving the trauma.' He said that this may also explain why younger people are much more likely to recall their near-death experiences (NDEs). 'Dissociative amnesia due to the experiences being so bad may mean that as people age they are more likely to have a negative experience but are unable to remember - this is psychological not physiological.' Despite science not being able to prove the afterlife exists, Wedgwood said his research has led him to believe that NDEs are very real experiences, and believes it would be dangerous to discount negative NDEs, as they may be our first visions of hell itself. ...
Editor:
I always suspected that this is the case. People are too ashamed, horrified or block it out. For some, the fear of what can happen after death might be just what they need to straighten out and fly right. The curious thing is that you don't have to be a bad person to go to hell or purgatory. You can be a good person too. All you have to be is an atheist or maybe even an agnostic. Howard Storm was a good person but an atheist. He died and didn't bother to look up. He didn't know where to go. Some helpful little critters showed up and offered to take him to the place he needed to be. He found out after descending with them that they were little demons. When they got to purgartory, they were no longer friendly. He wrote a book about it called, "My Descent into Hell."

As a reaction to communism that they witnessed first hand, they focused on what they considered was good and noble in their new country. They chose to make Westerns. This medium could best express those ideals. |
