As Above, So Below: The Mirror of Life

Описание: To the spiritually awakened, there is a profound truth that transcends the physical world and reveals the interconnectedness of all life. “As above, so below” — this ancient maxim reflects the idea that all levels of existence mirror each other, from the divine to the earthly, from the macrocosm to the microcosm. In essence, everything in life is a reflection, a copy-paste of a higher, unseen truth. From the relationship between a mother and her child to the connection between God and man, the same fundamental patterns play out, showing us that the divine is expressed in the mundane and the spiritual is manifested in the physical.






Grandmaster WaXhira of the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood teaches, “The entire universe is a series of mirrors, reflecting back to us what we believe, think, and feel. To understand one thing deeply is to understand all things, for everything is a reflection of the same source. Life itself is a constant act of copy-paste, repeating the same sacred truths in different forms.”






Let’s begin by looking at one of the most intimate relationships in life: the bond between mother and child. A mother cares for her child, nurturing, protecting, and guiding them through the earliest stages of life. This relationship is the first and most direct expression of unconditional love and connection. What the mother offers to the child — love, warmth, protection, and wisdom — is mirrored in countless other relationships in life. Just as a mother gives to her child, so too does the husband provide for the wife, and the divine provide for mankind. This is not a coincidence — it is the same pattern operating at different levels of existence.






The relationship between husband and wife also embodies this copy-paste pattern. The dynamic between them, the balance of giving and receiving, the mutual support and sacred union, echoes the relationship between God and man. In the same way a husband is called to love his wife unconditionally, to protect and guide her, so too does God offer His love and guidance to humanity. Just as a wife responds to her husband with respect, devotion, and partnership, so does humanity respond to the divine presence with faith, worship, and service. These relationships, from the human to the divine, are all expressions of the same law of interconnectedness.






This copy-paste principle goes beyond human relationships. It is embedded in every aspect of life. As above, so below applies to the cycles of nature, the movements of the planets, the rise and fall of civilizations, and even the journey of the soul. All of life reflects a divine blueprint, an eternal repetition of patterns that remind us of the unity and interconnectedness of the universe.






In the Sacred Atlantean Brotherhood, we teach that understanding these patterns is crucial to spiritual awakening. When you grasp the principle of “as above, so below,” you begin to see that every experience you encounter in the physical world is a reflection of a deeper spiritual truth. Whether you are facing challenges in a relationship, struggling with personal growth, or seeking answers to life’s mysteries, the key lies in seeing the mirror of your experiences. The divine pattern is always at work, and it is reflecting back to you the lessons you need to learn.






The Spiritual Reflection in the “As Above, So Below” Principle






The idea of “copy-paste” is not just a metaphor for relationships, but a spiritual law that applies to all aspects of life. In fact, it is the foundation of the work in the Brotherhood. In the Initiate degree, we begin with the Ocean — the cosmic ocean of consciousness — and learn that the same divine wisdom that exists in the cosmos is within us. The Wave, which represents thought and becoming, is the first manifestation of this principle. Our thoughts and actions create waves that ripple out into the world, affecting everything around us, just as the energy of the cosmos flows through the universe, shaping everything in its path.
