11: The Ancient Wisdom of the Kybalion

All right, guys, welcome to the Drew and you show. I am so excited about today's show. This is something I've been talking about for a long time. In fact, it's a book that I read over a decade ago called the Kybalion. Maybe you heard me talk about it on Instagram or Clubhouse or one of these social media apps before. I know I've definitely referenced it and probably a dozen podcasts being on other people's shows. And I thought, why not go over the seven universal laws of the universe, how to use them to create your dream life, to create a life that you could never even imagine. And first and foremost, guys, the Kybalion was written by these Egyptian mystic priests. And that priesthood was a bloodline that actually was attached to Moses. See, Moses was a Egyptian priest way back in the day. Here we go. So basically, and this is the 101 version of these seven laws. I could talk for a week about each one of these laws. I could bring people, people on, we could do a whole thing on it. But really, I just want to plant a seed that there's more happening in this world than what we really see. Life isn't just happening the way life is happening is because of us. So the universal law of the Kaibalion, the first one, is that everything is mental. It's the law of mentalism and it's this. It's the first immutable law which tells us that the universe has been created through the divine mind or through the will of God. Right in the beginning was the word and.

The thought creates the consciousness, the consciousness creates the feeling in the body, and the word is then spoken and the word actually creates matter. Right? Science is even starting to prove this. Quantum physics, quantum mechanics. So this law tells us that the universe is mental in nature and the absolute one mind is actually all that there is. But however, within this one mind exists all the infinite universes that are everywhere, rippling out in every ways. God rests in action, right? And this expansiveness is immeasurable. So mentalism tells us that the all or God creates mentally and as co creators, that's how we create. So in the book, one of the things I love about it is they talk about the different realms, spiritual realm, the mental realm and the physical realm.

So I made it my life's work and my mission to figure out how to connect to these other realms, largely because of what I experienced as a child. I was tortured, I was abused. And I've told this story to you guys before, so you already know this, but I had to go within to hide from the reality that I was in. Because it was so dark. Seeing my sister get a fork stabbed in her eye was pretty gruesome way back in the day for my little eyes to handle. So I turned within the inner realm. Dreamtime became very apparent to me. So I've always been fascinated by the mentalism aspect of the universe in which we live. So the law of mentalism, to understand it correctly, your thoughts become your reality, right? So to master this law takes willful application day in and day out. It takes you analyzing and focusing on your thoughts, looking at them. What kind of thoughts am I having in this moment? How am I feeling? Some great way. Showers in this have been Esther Hicks. I know talks about it. Bashar Another channel. The law of one by Ra. Another thing. So. So how can we put ourselves in a state of love? Joy of financial abundance just rippling in like a tidal wave? Success beyond our imagination. And how can you have this in your mind before it becomes your reality? Because whatever you hold, and one of the things it says in the book is you live in this omnipresent mind of all the entire universe, including yourself. And your life is composed of an all encompassing divine mind. Its thoughts and thought form your true mind. Your higher self is an extension and creation of the divine mind. And that's actually from another book I read, Dwarven Virtue's Divine Magic. So which means that we exist in the one mind. How do we connect to that? How do we connect to that one mind? Often.

We connect them by looking at the other laws and applying them to our life. So the second law is the principle of correspondence. As above, so below. Maybe you've heard that before. As within, so without and so without. So within. And at the heart of the principle of correspondence is the idea that there's this constant link between the spiritual, mental and the physical realm. So for me to have more energy in the physical realm, I get to spend more time in the spiritual realm and vice versa. Because the energy, it's better to be breathed through in my own experience than to allow Drew to do the breathing. Have you ever tried to breathe yourself? It's pretty hard to do. But when we let go, when we realize that we're this divine being having this human experience, it's a lot easier for that breath to come through us. When we pay attention to the gut feelings that are unexplainingly pulling us towards different things or pushing us away towards different events. It's a listening to that, you know, in today's world. We become accustomed to not listening to our intuition, to pushing things to the side. And I think the law of correspondence tells us check in often with how we feel, what we're thinking, use retrospection. And then from that energetic state of knowing that when you are in your highest vibration, you are attracting to you more harmony instead of discord and disarray and all these things, then you can start to utilize the law of correspondence. So there's times in your life when you're vibrating in a really high level and you attract people in your life that are with you for a while, and they're the greatest people on the planet that you've ever met, your best friends and people that you want to do life with. And there's other times when you're vibrating really low and your ego is in the driver's seat and you're materializing people that aren't good for you. And then you continue to stay with people that aren't good for you because your vibration and your ego is in the driver's seat. And you don't know it because you're not tuning into your spiritual and your mental realm. You're literally living in the physical land of lust and temptation and all those things. So the principle of correspondence as above, so below, and also meaning that whatever's in a larger scale, whatever's happening on this planet Earth at this time, is also happening interdimensionally in different unified fields, rippling out into time space. And we're all interconnected, so we're only seeing 1% of the visible light spectrum or less, a lot less. So knowing that and having compassion for what we don't know, because I don't know anything, guys. And that frees you. It allows you to not be too attached to the, to what we're viewing. So, and then the third law is the principle of vibration. And that states nothing rests, everything moves, and everything vibrates. So you've probably heard that before. The law of vibration is directly related to the law of frequency, which is the law of attraction. Like attracts like, light attracts like in all ways. When you increase your vibrational frequency, you attract high energy events like I said. And it's a lot easier for you to materialize abundance when you're in a high vibration state. So the ancients that studied the hermetic principle believe there's different ways to fine tune it and there's different ways to progressively raise your vibration higher and higher and that what they would work on. In fact, I was reading some ancient texts A while ago. And one of the spiritual initiations was for one of these priests to lock themselves in a tomb with a seed and seven days of darkness in a little tomb with a seed. And they had to breathe. And there's no, literally very little oxygen in this dark tomb. There's no light. And they had to use their prana to feed this seed in their hand. And when they came out, they had to grow this plant that was in their hand after seven days of darkness by using their internal light, by using their internal vibration. And many of them would die because they would freak out and they'd start breathing too fast. But talk about an initiation. Practice like this requires a whole new level of being. And I know it's interesting to think about these things, you guys. So check your energy. When you're in a low vibration, what things are you bringing to you? And it's not. Remember, nothing is happening to you in this universe. It's all happening for you. And I think that's on the premise of these hermetic teachings. There's also the principle of polarity, which is number four. Everything is dual. Everything has poles, everything has its pair of opposites. And unlike are the same. Opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree. Extremes meet, all truths are but half truths. All paradoxes may be reconciled. And we can see this on the planet now. There's red versus blue, there's black versus white. There's these separational lies that are just being broadcasted across media and across the airwaves and across the vibrational consciousness, the collective consciousness of humanity, which I do believe it's probably dropped 30 or 40 points. If we look at Dr. Richard Dawkins scale over the past year, in 2020, yours hasn't. Yours has gone up, which is exactly why you and I are together. And we're talking about this information at this time. But how do we bring humanities up? So this hermetic principle, this teaching, actually tells us that there's polarity and polarity in relationships, right? If there's no polarity, a relationship is much harder to exist. Everything is balancing itself out. And we see this in nature a lot, right? The masculine and feminine part of a plant or a flower, it has both, right? These plants are asexual. So having that polarity, having that divine feminine and divine masculine in you, right? Working with that wounded child, with the divine child, boosting your own internal vibration is the transformation that has to take place on the planet at this time. We can't be concerned about everything that's happening. In the news and the media. Otherwise we'll lose ourselves. But we can focus on ourselves and when we can be the change. And the world will change, as Maidan has told me over and over again. He says it in a much more eloquent way than what I would say, but it's super powerful, you guys. So how can you use the principle polarity in your own life?

Maybe you've been beating yourself up for the past few weeks and you haven't worked out and you put on the COVID 15. Well, how can you shift the polarity of the pendulum the other way, right? And vice versa. Maybe you've been pushing it too hard in business, you've been hustling and grinding. Now it's time to take a little break. And there's another law we're going to talk about in a second here that applies to this as well. But know that everything is dual in nature. When another human being has a different idea, know that everything is dual in nature and don't judge it. Because what we want to do as humans sometimes is we, our identity wants to make them wrong for their idea. Because we want to be right, the ego wants to be right. And when the ego is right, nothing will work because you can't be right and be in a relationship with another human being. It's impossible. We just get to see through their eyes, right? One of the first laws of neuro linguistic programming is dual vision. Putting yourself in another person's shoes. And that'll make you a more competent communicator as well, somebody who's connected, somebody who's tapped in, tuned into what people are actually feeling. So I encourage you guys to check that out as well. Number five is the principle of rhythm. Everything flows out in, everything has its tides. All things rise, all things fall.

And many would say that's what we're going through. This tipping point on the planet we've been penetrating. We've been in this masculine energy for far too long. More boys are being born. If you want to look at the energy on the planet, look at boys and girls being born. There's more boys being born now than ever. But that feminine yin energy that Mother Earth has, that's the energy that we need more of to balance out this pendulum, to bring back rhythm in life. So Mother Earth knows how to balance herself, like she's mastered it. She's been around a lot longer than you and I have. Okay, that planetary consciousness, that divine planetary consciousness, how can we apply this principle of rhythm in our own life?

What type of practice can we have? For me it's mindfulness, it's meditation, it's taking a bath every day. I love to do that sitting in my sauna, it's jumping in the cold plunge, it's stepping into stepping my feet on earth, doing my grounding exercise. All that self care will help us with the rhythm and the ritual of our own life when we go all day, every day. And it's starting with the premise of self care is asking the question, who is myself and is myself this mortal man and woman? Or is it an immortal man and woman? Am I not the child of God? And if that's the case, then what are the mistaken beliefs and concepts that we get to get rid of and we get to get clear on every day? You know, can this outside influence influence the mind of God that I am now in? Right? And that's what the hermetic principles teach us. It's tuning in to the highest version of yourself and it's going through the life experience as that, right? Witnessing. It's being the observation, consciousness. So we can distract our mind with a lot of things on this planet to swipe left, swipe right. TikTok society that we live in, this mundane world, but how much time are we spending really looking at, well, who am I, what am I, Right? And then coming from that place of the spiritual vibration of being with the Godhead and it's in you now, it's in every cell of your being. So the more you hold on to that, the higher your vibration is going to be. That's the hack, that's the shortcut. Looking at life as if it's a versus getting so wrapped into the day to day things because there's always rhythm. Everything flows in, everything falls out, bank accounts rise, bank accounts go down. That's okay, everything, you're good, you're under the divine law of good and everything is perfect now. And the more you sit in that state, unattached and unaffected by the outside world's events, you become unstoppable. And that's what it's all about. You become a magician, more of a magician because you already are. Or a sorceress. So next up, number six, the principle of cause and effect. Every cause has its effect and every effect has its cause. Some people call this the law of causality as well. So the question is, are you cause or are you victim to situation and circumstance? I know most of the people on this planet are being victims. They're sitting back, they're being told what to do and they listen. They're like little pawns on the chessboard. So taking radical action in their own life, they can just over a certain period of time, just accept defeat over and over again. And it's time to take control of your own life, my friend. Nobody's going to do it for you. You came in this world alone and you're going to leave alone. So the more cause you become in your life, the more effect you can actually have on the circumstances and the situations that are in this world. So I am cause is a great mantra. I am source is a great mantra. These things, as we say it is created, will start to manifest in your life. And one of the biggest exercises you can do for having more cause in your life is to make some damn decisions. So many people are so slow at making decisions. I go out to restaurants with people sometimes and it takes them 20 minutes to think of what they want. I've made it a practice long ago to decide as quick as possible to use the skills that I know, right? Especially when it comes to meaningless stuff that's not going to affect me for the long term or investments that are going to potentially have more of an impact on my life and the generations to come or whatever. So it's important to decide. When we decide, we cut off all other options for what's possible. That one thing is what we believe in. And that one thing gets a superstar super charged surge of energy of frequency. So decide more often, right? If you've been in a negative environment for a while and you've been suffering real world consequences and this inner conflict and this turmoil is just radiating through you and animating, you decide to remove yourself, but don't stick in it, right? The law of cause and effect. And think about the times when you're about to do something stupid. And it's not the greatest way to communicate. Well, it's not coming from love. But that five year old inner child just wants to be right so bad. So you save a thing, right? There's a cause and effect to that. And once we realize this, there's this titration period of a second. And I believe it's not what we accumulate on this planet, it's not how the riches that we possess or all that other materialism. I believe it's the law of mentalisms. How quickly can I grow? How quickly can I get the next lesson? Because this game is an infinite game. Our souls are always evolving. This avatar that I'm living at this time, there's a lot of lessons that this avatar has learned already and there's many more to learn, right? So how can I get the lesson quicker without sitting in doubt or despair for a day, sometimes a week, sometimes 20 years? Somebody loses a bunch of money in business and they're still holding on to it and they fall off the wagon of ambition and they never go after their dreams again because they're hurt. How quickly can we move through the hurt? And how quickly can we become the hero of our own journey? The law of cause and effect. And then next up is the principle of gender is in everything. Everything has its masculine and feminine principles. And you already know what this principle is. Right? But it's important to note, like I said, that.

When you meet somebody, what's more important than the biological sex of the person is actually the energy that they're giving off. Like I have more. I think my soul is very female or very feminine in orientation. I am listening, I'm receiving a lot and I do a lot of self care love rituals. And I open my heart and I'm focused on having compassion. But I'm also a man. I'm also very much focused on doing and getting things done and holding space and being in that left logical brain quite a bit.

So the ancient teachings of these priests in Egypt would have exercises and practices to balance out the energies that are inside of us. Because if the yang energies, too much of that masculine energies can create recklessness, it can create spontaneity that isn't healthy. Anger, aggression, if there's too much masculine energy, and on the other hand, if there's too much feminine energy, then there's not a lot of getting things done. There's not a lot of purpose. You're just a storm rolling through life. And the polarity of the man is positive in orientation. And our energy is collected from Father sky and it ripples down in relationship to our root chakra. So that's how the battery gets charged, which is why it's important for men to be out in nature. Right? And then women get their energy negative in orientation from the root chakra up, which is why when they plant their feet on Mother Earth, when they offer their blood once a month as a sacrifice to Earth or as an offering, more importantly, not a sacrifice as an offering. It's a very special time. So when we come together, these voltage bodies, the man in positive orientation and the woman in negative orientation, not negative like negative Nancy. Right. But just in that setup. The ultimate form of attraction is when a man is stimulated immediately through the root chakra, the physical what am I looking at? Because we're visual cortex hunters. And then the woman is motivated through the crown chakra first, which is that spiritual. Do I feel safe? Do I feel seen? And it's a beautiful thing. And to really embody that. Right. So there's different energies. The principle of gender, again, we could get into this. We could have different topics about this in the podcast. I could bring on some experts in regards to holding more masculine resonance, more having more of that, having more feminine play in your life. And it's good to reflect, like, where are you in this principle of gender? Where do you fall? How are you balancing your own sexual energy? So it's good. So these are the Seven Laws of the Kybalion, one of my favorite books. If you haven't read it yet, check it out. There's an audio version of it too. That's pretty good. But this is Hermeticism, based on ancient Egypt, like I said. And it's a tradition that goes back so far, first and second centuries of AD and it's the oldest non Christian actually belief system that is actually still practiced today. Not to be confused with the Kabbalah. Right? The Kabbalah is Judaism and has its practices that are actually based on this. So it's the major teachings associated with Hermeticism and are preserved today. So super powerful. Check it out. It's all explained in that book. And go over to Amazon, you guys. Give this a review. Let me know what you thought. Let me know how you're going to apply it to your life. Many of these you've probably already applied, you just didn't know it. Many of you are already living in the law of mentalism, knowing that what you feel, what you think spiritually first, then into the mental realm is created into the matter realm. So don't allow yourself to be so marred in matter that you forget what you are. This divine being having a soul, you know, having a spiritual experience manifested as human. So don't forget that and tune in. Be aware when your energy starts to drop. Choose a different timeline. It's going to become so clear to you the vibration that you're at with what you're materializing in the physical, time, space, reality. Now, the eternal now is ever present and has all the information that you'll ever need and all the support is already there. You have a whole cadre of luminous beings guiding you on your journey on Earth School, in Earth School, above, as below. And we are here now with you. So thanks for listening to this. I'm Drew. Canole the drew and you show. I just want you to have a great day, my friend. Hug yourself, love yourself, be kind to you, and we'll see you soon. Remember, we're in this together.
