Since man lives in a multidimensional world, we have other senses of perceptions which are not just material. We learn through them also. In the next few slides I show the existence of these senses and learning.

. . . 'reality' is always encoded, or rather the only way we can

. . . 'reality' is always encoded, or rather the only way we can perceive and make sense of reality is by the codes of our culture. There may be an objective, empiricist reality out there, but there is no universal, objective way of perceiving and making sense of it. What passes for reality in any culture is the product of the culture's codes, so 'reality' is always already encoded, it is never 'raw'. Fiske (1987 )

This is the study of inheritance, the passing of traits from on generation to the next. Genes are the units of hereditary, found at specific loci on each chromosome. Genes are made up of DNA, and DNA replication in meiosis passes on the genes to offspring.

Our brains mathematically construct "concrete" reality by interpreting frequencies from another dimension, a realm of meaningful, patterned primary reality that transcends time and space.

Actual messages from the human brain are not a function of the human brain

Actual messages from the human brain are not a function of the human brain itself – they are not generated by the brain. IS THE WORLD IN THE BRAIN, OR THE BRAIN IN THE WORLD?

In Sacramental Symbols which are in our present language and forms, the brain tries to interpret it in terms of the universal dimensions and codings. These form part of the future person, behavior and decisions. Sacraments thus form the anchoring force of faith and beliefs.

Just as a hologram functions as a sort of lens, a translating device able to convert an apparently meaningless blur of frequencies into a coherent image, the brain also comprises a “lens” and uses holographic principles to mathematically convert the frequencies it receives through the senses into the inner world of our perceptions.

Often meaningless blur of rituals are transformed into a coherent image by the spiritual lens which convert the frequencies it receives through the senses into the inner world of our perceptions. But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised. 1 Co 2: 14 Only the Spiritual Man has the decoder reference beam.

Because of who he is and of what he did for us, we have

Because of who he is and of what he did for us, we have the opportunity to become by grace what he is by nature. That is, we can put on the divine, becoming partakers of the divine nature. A life of repentance and participation in the sacraments is the means by which man cooperates with God. This cooperation is termed synergeia (synergy).

In theosis, man becomes filled with the divine life. He takes on God's attributes, but he does not become merged with the Holy Trinity. There is union without fusion. Thus, a classic patristic image of theosis is a sword held in a flame—the sword gradually takes on the properties of the flame (light and heat), but remains a sword.

Man can become a god by grace, not in a polytheistic sense, but rather in terms of becoming a son or daughter of the Most High by means of adoption.

The sacraments are rituals through which the grace of Christ is communicated to persons

The sacraments are rituals through which the grace of Christ is communicated to persons by the power of the Holy Spirit operative in their administration. It is understood as an experience of grace, subsequent to salvation, with the effect that the Holy Spirit takes full possession of the soul, sanctifies the heart, and empowers the will so that one can love God and others blamelessly in this life. One is justified and then sanctified-understood as communing with God with the result that the holiness of God is actually imparted, not just imputed on the basis of what Christ accomplished on the cross.

God is present everywhere and fills all things by his Divine grace, and that all of creation is a "sacrament. " In that sense there is nothing profane. We set apart some of the ordinary and make it sacred. It is the purpose and act of man that make the profane sacred.
