[Applause] [Laughter] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] oh [Applause] Welcome to om time Times TV a division of times media and broadcasting welcome to the new show toward a solar civilization where your host naika Gabriel introduces many experts who will focus on the development of spiritual consciousness the importance of wisdom love and fraternity and the living knowledge of
The laws of nature and the universe they delve into the found and transformative ideas of omra Mikael Ivanov that have significantly impacted spiritual thought and provide practical methods to awaken you in a more purposeful conscious spiritually aligned way of living here is naika Gabriel your host have you ever tried to focus your
Attention on the Sun the center of our universe in doing so we draw closer to our own Center our higher self or the sun within and we melt into it and begin to resemble it more and more hi I’m naika your host for this show towards is solar civilization the teachings of Oman
Mikael ivanhoff today it’s all about working with the light and with the sun there are material Foods just as there are spiritual Foods in the same way that you eat bread and drink water each day to nourish your physical body we should nourish our spiritual bodies with the
Sun it’s life it’s warmth its light this is one reason why Master umra Mikel ivanhoff suggested that we should watch the sunrise each and every single day as if we were seeing it for the first time but enough said for now I am pleased to welcome anol who will be speaking on
This fascinating subject born in Switzerland anatol has lived in several countries including England Mexico and the United States of America originally a farmer he has many interests one of which is you guessed it the yoga of the sun he has traveled widely and this Fascination for other cultures is
Reflected in his talk it’s going to be an information packed episode as anatol will cover many topics today including the importance of visible light why spiritual light or unseen light is so important exploring the many solar and light symbolisms across different cultures and religions exploring why Master om’s teaching placed such
Importance on the sun and finally anatol will share three simple exercises throughout his talk over to you an thank you naika for this introduction let’s hope I will live up to your expectations so let’s go right to the million dollar question what can sum up Omar Mikel ivanov’s teaching in one
Word you guess it light and in one sentence becoming like a son indeed the teaching is about knowledge methods practices and above all encouragement to become like Sons where the sun ignites our quest for intellig Ence where the sun deepens our appreciation of love and generosity where the sun stands as a
Paragon of perfection as a model before us a model of wisdom represented by its light a model of love and kindness represented by its warmth and a model of a strong will for Good Deeds represented by the life it’s bestowed by the sun if we want to use the Sun as a model
Then we should start to talk about the fascinating reality of light let’s shed some light on light it is a journey through history and that history has had an impact on our world today that is nothing short of miraculous originally as a farmer I learned early on of the importance of
Light think about it photosynthesis the foundation of practically all life on Earth is essentially the sun doing its magic and it’s happening under our feet above our heads and all around us even in rivers lakes and the oceans photosynthesis is the transformation of sunlight into chemical energy which is then generally stored as
Sugars even after its Discovery some 300 years ago a por of the photosynthesis process in chlorophyll continues to elude contemporary science I’m highlighting this to emphasize that despite the incredible leaps forward modern science still grapples with understanding some of life’s and lights most fundamental aspects photosynthesis the process by which
Light is turned into our daily bread is amazing in fact what we call the material world is nothing but light interacting with our senses with our eyes and brain light is all we see isn’t isn’t it amazing that light is all we see we think we see solid objects but we’re
Not you think you’re looking at trees flowers roses and the lovely face of your beloved no all I see is light that bounced off your gorgeous face or light emitted by the Sun or Sun’s or the light bulb I quote from a poem let there always be light by Rebecca Elson a most
Original astronomer and poet born in the same year I was born her vocation was Finding and making connections in the universe and fortunately she passed away at the age of 39 for this we go out Dark Knights searching for the Diest stars for signs of unseen
Things whatever they turn out to be let there be swarms of them enough for immortality always a star where we can warm ourselves let there be even enough to bring it back from its own edges to bring us all so close that we ignite the bright spark of resurrection end
Quote indeed we strive to capture the light from the faintest most distant Stars it even here on Earth our search for light happens amidst the Unseen our eyes wonders of evolutionary creation evolutionary creation or a great term I just made it up they were formed with the influence of the Sun and
For good reason they are most sensitive to the yellow part of the electromagnetic wave spectrum but wait wave isn’t light made of photons or particles of light Newton believed light was made of matter particles of matter hens argued it was a wave a century later young showed it was
A way through his famous double slit experiment only for Einstein to come along yes this Einstein to come along and show that show that it was not matter but a little Quant of energy later called a photon as well as a wave isn’t it fascin ating that light
Both acts as a wave and as a tiny packet of energy and just as intriguingly light behaves differently when you’re looking at it than when it’s not observed from mastering fire a million plus years ago to the Stone Age oil lamp 50,000 15,000 years ago to Edison’s light bulb in the late 19th
Century light has been key to human progress more Nobel prizes in fact have celebrated light related C discoveries than any other topic the first American Nobel Prize was awarded to mikkelson for measuring lights speed accurately interestingly Einstein’s Nobel Prize celebrated his work on light photo electric effect mentioned a moment
Ago and not on eal mc² his special relativity equation his Discovery or discoveries led the groundwork to the later invention or discovery of the laser in 1960 a major 20th century scientific achievement lasers are intense precise powerful light beams omra Mikel Ivanov was fascinated by lasers from a spiritual
Perspective but that’s a topic for another episode perhaps indeed the groundwork for the laser earned them a Nobel Prize in 1964 and by the way just last year 2023 light research clinched another Nobel Prize understanding light from a physical standpoint is crucial to nearly all modern Technologies from compact is to
Computers from smartphones to solar panels from GPS to genome sequencing in medicine light is fundamental to ler a surgery current research is looking at light as a potential Alzheimer’s cure light is crucial for regulating sleep treating depression preventing suicide and shaping human interactions let’s summarize this brief overview of the physical importance of
Light no sun No Light No Light No Life what about spiritual light or the Unseen light light’s most precious qualities shine in the spiritual realm light is a profound universal symbol of goodness and Divinity it embodies the Triumph of good over evil it symbolizes Purity and spiritual awakening as such light embodies a
Universal Force fostering a sense of collectiveness unity and Brotherhood across different spiritual paths light reminds us of our Collective human quest for meaning and for truth attainable not through ordinary means but via spiritual practice Inner Awakening and sometimes divine grace I quote omam Mikel Ivanov by Leading you to the
Sun I’m leading you to the Christ the spirit of the sun who said of himself I am the light of the world the light that lights up the world is that of the Sun but it is important to understand that above and beyond the visible light of the physical Sun there’s another
Light which is the True Light of the Sun the Bulgarian the Bulgarian word for this light is vidalina from a root which means to see I have already talked about viina the invisible Inner Light which we distinguish from swetlin which is derived from a root meaning to
Shine it is swetlin that enables us to see physical objects but it cannot make the invisible realities of the psychic World visible to us for this we need Vina and to obtain Vina we must establish a close bond with the Sun for even though it is invisible vidalina also comes from the
Sun vidina is subtler and richer than visible light and it takes years and years of work meditation prayer and contemplation of the sun to possess even the most minute quantities but once we possess it enables us to see the invisible world and all is inhabitants end quote for omam unseen light is Central
To his teaching visible light or stina as we’ve seen is essential for our existence and everything around us light in the form of tiny energy packets in is the foundation of matter in its most delicate subtle form what we call matter in fact is essentially highly condensed concentrated
Light but it is the Unseen light vidalina that underpins in fact all creation and with simple exercises which we will explore shortly we might gradually be able to perceive this unseen light and illuminate our inner selves extend it outward and even start to see the Unseen or spiritual
World yet many question the existence of this unseen light I remind them that many groundbreaking ideas were proposed well before science embraced them the shift from a geocentric worldview where the Earth is the center of the universe to a heliocentric worldview where the sun is the center of the solar system is
A prime example it took 1,800 years from arist starus of Samos passing through through to Arata in India until the idea that the Earth orbits the Sun was again revived by cernus in the 16th century but even then this game-changing idea faced resistance from the Roman Catholic
Church and it was not until Galileo galile and Kepler again worked on it that the heliocentric model become became to be WI ly accepted decades after Copernicus Millennia Millennia after aristatus whose adversary of thoughts was toy with his geocentric or arguably egocentric egoistical worldview this new heliocentric worldview completely reshaped our
Understanding of the world and our place within the entire Cosmos its impact was profound and profoundly Al the ca of human thought and progress and history even today modern science has much ground to cover in catching up we readily believe that water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen
Atom to form H2O and then we build on such knowledge to propel human Innovation to new heights why not listen to those who’ve explored inner reality is and seen the Unseen light it’s even attainable for anyone ready to invest modest effort and engage in relatively simple practices practices that help me tackle life’s
Challenges resolve inner conflicts confront my demons and slightly improve my generally B bad behavior Al so I hope to believe as a scientist I have no difficulty embracing certain Concepts not yet accepted by modern science why because such beliefs open our senses to the inspiration of other realities consider for example light the
Light light is a form of radiation of the electromagnetic spectrum only a tiny fraction of that spectrum is visible we don’t see radio waves nor microwaves but at times we perceive infrared light as heat visible light we see but we don’t see ultraviolet light x-rays nor the smallest of the all gamma
Rays for centuries science remained unaware of electromagnetic waves beyond the physical for a lack of tools for detection and measurement what we can’t see or measure doesn’t exist so-called modern science still asserts today it is such a narrow stance failing to heat the lessons from the history they themselves have
Written who knows what else science cannot see yet for now the Unseen light falls into that category conventional knowledge has its place and served me well during my career modern science often overlooks or Worse out right dismisses spiritual Dimensions the great initiates and masters of humanity with their spiritual
Signs or initiatic signs tell us about their findings Rudolf Steiner in g291 said something to the effect seen from within light transforms into thought and seen from without thought shines as light what an intriguing concept to contemplate very much like our food essentially transformed sunlight our thoughts can be seen as transformed
Vina let’s do a brief exercise starting with visible light and extending it later to the Unseen light for just a moment Focus your faults on visible light as if your life depended on it imagine this light as white sunlight includes all the colors of the spectrum
Red or the spirit of Life orange or the spirit of sanctity dignity and health golden yellow or the spirit of wisdom Prudence green or the spirits of eternity Evolution hope and wealth blue or the spirit of Truth and peace Indigo or the spirit of strength the spirit of
Royalty and finally violet or purple or the spirit of sacrifice and spiritual love and omnipotence we delve into we will delve into col and how to use them for Spiritual work in another episode perhaps for now I’ll display an image of pure white light for just one minute
During this minute I invite you to close your eyes and concentrate Solly on light but not if you’re driving picture yourself as clear and Crystal and allow light to fully permeate your entire being e whatever you seek you must become yourself please share below how you feel after this exercise
Now and more importantly after practicing this exercise several times daily for at least a week I’m truly eager to hear about your experience with it later in this episode we’ll delve into more exercises involving light hi I hope that you are enjoying this fascinating talk about the sun

Transformation and thus contribute to the Improvement of the world in which we live I quote omam mik Ivanov again your ability to focus on light objects will save you from all situations even when you leave this life because this ability persists even after your death for it does not come from the
Brain it is only reflected in it it is the spirit that possesses it there is no work more worthy more glorious more powerful than working with light from now on whether you are here Al together or alone at home or elsewhere think of connecting to the source of all
Blessings the light and that is all end quote for omam Spiritual nourishment parallels nutrition just as we consume bread and drink water daily to sustain our physical bodies body we ought to also emide embibe the sun its warmth its light its life to feed our spiritual bodies our spiritual Essence doing so omam
Suggests we will truly come to life let’s now delve into the significance of the Sun and of light across history it’s a topic I find fascinating in the ancient Indus Valley a civilization that laid the foundation of Hinduism over 5,000 years ago the Sun God sua was worshiped to this day sua is
A principal deity in Hinduism embodying the son’s lifegiving power often depicted riding riding a chariot drawn by seven horses that symbolize the seven colors of the light spectrum suria is viewed as the Creator the source of all life and the eye of the universe one enduring celebration is
Diali the Festival of Lights which commemorates the Triumph of light over darkness in ancient Egypt the S god Ra held immense sign ific an revered as the creator of life also linked to Ram was Horus those who followed the path of the spiritual son as his followers were
Called later during the New Kingdom era aratan sparked a revolutionary shift he not only established a monotheistic worship center around aten the Sun God but also at elevated aten to the Supreme and sole creator of Life at 10 was symbolized by the sun disk portraying the sun’s Life Giving
Energy with Rays extending downward each Ray offering a blessing in Judaism light holds profound significance intimately linked to the menora an ancient symbol of the Jewish faith it symbolizes God’s presence in the temple commemorates The Exodus from Egypt and even today hanuka is a celebration of the Triumph of light over
Darkness and the Miracle of the oil in the temple later in the Zohar the Cornerstone of Jewish mysticism or cabala light serves as a metaphor for the divine presence and for wisdom during the Indo Iranian period in Asian Persia Mitra or held significance in Zoroastrianism associated with contracts
Oaths and agreements as well as light and the Sun but the central deity for zaratustra was a hura Mazda the wise Lord symbolizing the ultimate deity and Creator and source of light he perceived a cosmic principle in the Sun a being later called Christ in Buddhism light symbolizes wisdom and
Enlightenment with meditation practices frequently focusing on inner light to achieve spiritual insight and to be guided toward the path of or to Nirvana sidart gaama the historical Buddha is often depicted with a radiant Aura symbolizing his state of Enlightenment in ancient Greece up to the helenistic
Period helos the Sun God was revered as the as he traversed the sky in a chariot drawn with four horses during the Roman Kingdom Republic and Empire worship of the sun god gods and the symbolism of light held significant sway reflecting religious beliefs and also political power Saul indes the indigenous son essentially
Referred to helos of Greek mythology and later Saul Invictus the unconquered son were both important symbols for the Romans although this evidence that religions were practiced in China since Neolithic times taism is unique among major world religions it doesn’t have the concept of gods but promotes humility pacifism and living in harmony
With nature and with each other and taism also has the son it teaches that two forces Yin and young together produce everything in the universe the moon expresses the cool dark feminine force of Ying whereas the sun expresses the hot bright masculine force of young the two principles together
Produce Harmony and order in the entire universe and wealth and peace in a nation before we continue with Christianity Islam Shintoism and many many more let’s break with another brief exercise we will try to harmonize our breath with our thoughts and I quote omam again you inhale thinking that you’re drawing in
The light and you exhale thinking that you’re projecting it onto yourself onto your organs onto all your cell then you inhale again and exhale very quickly you will be able to see how this exercise acts beneficially on you you will feel relaxed and in peace end quote for one minute let’s
Inhale let’s inhale thinking of drawing in light and exhale thinking of projecting light e again please share in the comment below your experiences with this exercise in future episodes perhaps we will expand on these exercises to include the world and the universe and Humanity but back to solar symbolism in
Christianity Jesus Christ himself is often described as the light of the world the Bible uses light as a metaphor for Spiritual Revelation and sanctity I quote the Gospel of John 1 14-5 describing Jesus Christ as the source of light and of life in him was life and the life was
The light of men the light shines in the darkness and the Darkness has not overcome it and quote the sun is no longer deity in christianism by a powerful symbol of Jesus Christ himself the son in Christianity symbolizes the presence of Jesus Christ I am the light of the
World whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but have the light of life that was John 812 I think in Islam light on nor is closely linked with Divine guidance and the Quran which is also referred to as the light interestingly it symbolizes guidance Purity divine presence and
Understanding in fact the concept of nor is used to describe the light of Allah nor is also associated with the prophets including Jesus and Muhammad as the bearers of Divine Light and guidance Sufism Islam’s mystical Branch emphasizes the spiritual importance of light light takes a fundamental place in Sikhism in Japan
Amateras the sun goddess plays a central role in Shintoism Japan’s indigenous faith in Africa tribal settings examples Bound for the sun people or Bushmen of southern Africa the sun is Central as the powerful lifegiving force for the Yuba people in West Africa their supreme dity or orun is associated
With the sky and the Sun for the dog on people in Mali slightly to the EST Advanced astronomers had detailed knowledge of the cycles of the sun Central in their ritual ceremonies and agriculture many others emphasize Inner Light from A to Z anthroposophy bahay faith neopaganism Pentecostalism quakerism Rosicrucianism theosophy via and of
Course Zen Buddhism even nor mythology features Saul the sun goddess having lived in Mexico it would be inexcusable negligence not to mention theast they have tonu the sun god most significantly we see lley the god of the sun and founder of tenos shitan modern day Mexico City held a central role in
Aslec ritual rituals and cosmology far to the South the Incas believed their royal families were direct descendants from the Sun and finally the diverse Native American tribes who lived on that land for eons for them the sun has been significant as Earth’s guardian and as a primary deity in their spiritual
Rituals ceremonies involving fire invoked the symbolic properties of light Native American cultures are renowned for profound and diverse Traditions highlighting just three for the Hy the sun is the window of taiowa the almighty Creator the Lakota performed the Sundowns expressing their spiritual connection with the sun having lived on
Sacred land of kayuga lake near itha I can’t Overlook the significance of skyw woman in their cosmology of the eroa intricately linked to the sun and the creation story that led to the hoden noodi the union of indigenous people including the Mohawk Ona onandaga Sia and
Kuga I hope I have shown how the Sun and light have always been symbols of life and of divinity touching nearly every culture belief and era indeed the sun has been revered as the visible and as the Unseen in a light in the sun’s glow and Radiance Humanity found guidance wisdom and
Inspiration this near Universal devotion speaks to a shared Human Experience that’s precisely how the Sun Ties different beliefs into a singular Testament of the Epic human story and as we saw uh earlier or heard earlier in this episode for om mik Ivanov it is no different nor should it
Be for him the Sun and light weren just Concepts they were the essence of the practices he taught indeed the Sun and light are the heart and soul of his teaching the path and the goal but here’s where Ram’s views take a slight turn from The Narrative I outlined a moment ago
With the sun being daes gods and Central figures omam invites us to internalize the meaning of the Sun and embody its qualities for this he provided us with a Priceless array of tools methods and practices and leading by example to inspire emulation with each of
Us already Burns a nent spark of the Sun a little flame of viina the Unseen light this isn’t mere poetry if we nourish that inner spark through exercises and the way we live well let’s use a metaphor Rebecca Elon went out at night to search for unseen things things in the
Universe but if we go out at sunrise in search for signs of unseen things unseen things in the spiritual World it will bring us so close that we ignite the spark of Resurrection much like Rebecca alon’s groundbreaking work in astrophysics connecting us with distance STS this Inner Light will guide us to connect
With and embrace the essence of humanity it will manifest itself through the expansion of our Consciousness setting the foundation for a true understanding of Brotherhood within and without to conclude because the Sun and light have been the most ubiquitous symbols in practically all cultures and religions
The sun is the very symbol that unites us all the sun transcends artificial human divisions Geographic Frontiers cultural boundaries and religious beliefs understanding this simple truth will ignite a Monumental shift propelling us into an unparalleled Golden Age a new era of Enlightenment today the Sun and light are just seen as opportunities for
Profit through technology and as subjects of casual historical C osity but this shouldn’t be the sun is the future in technology culture spirituality and even religion so much so that Omar ianov spoke of the Advent of a new solar and Universal religion the only genuinely Universal religion must be solar
For the language of the sun is the only enduring universal language understood by all with its light warmth and life Distributing these gifts impartially to all human beings like a trinity light warmth and life intellect heart and will thinking feeling and doing embracing the sun both as a model
Of perfection out there and working on an inner embodiment of its qualities this concept signals a transformation that will have far greater impact than the shift from geocentricity to heliocentricity most importantly this new worldview suggests that all peoples cultures religions will continue to practice their faith but will now be enriched by a
Unifying light most importantly this new worldview suggests that all peoples cultures and religions will continue to practice their faith but will now be enriched by a unifying light a light that has always surrounded us unseen until now this inside is strikingly simple yet profoundly impactful we all brothers and sisters
United under the same Divine known by many names what a powerful unifying and revolutionary idea prepare fore prounce come D come Inell it comes to L l for [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] might All [Applause] All [Applause] The Me belong to
