This was a series of lectures produced in the early 1900’s by the A.M.O.R.C. (Ancient Mystical Order of the Rosy Cross). A hard to find yet extremely profound and significant series of teachings that turns everything we thought we knew about the universe completely inside-out. This was produced during a time when the West was experiencing a radical shift in the understanding of the cosmos. And yet, despite the efforts of the many individuals who were trying to bring this knowledge to light, it was silenced and buried. But why?
This concept is a radical departure from conventional cosmology. It directly challenges the heliocentric Copernican theory, proposing that our perception of the universe as an expansive, external entity is an illusion. Instead, the A.M.O.R.C. posits that the universe exists within the Earth, and we, as inhabitants, are living inside this hollow sphere. This understanding is not a new concept and was popularized several years prior by Dr. Cyrus Teed. Many authors and prominent figures such as Heinrich Himmler (according to historian Joseph Farrell in his book Reich of The Black Sun) believed that we were inside rather than outside the “globe”.
Imagine, if you will, standing inside a giant sphere. The interior surface of this sphere is not solid, but a vibrant, living tapestry of stars, galaxies, and cosmic phenomena. This is the universe as seen from the perspective of the Cellular Earth theory. It’s a universe that is intimate and immediate, not distant and detached.
This concept is deeply metaphysical, challenging our perceptions of space, time, and reality. It suggests that the universe is not something ‘out there’, but something ‘in here’, within us and around us. It’s a universe that is not separate from us, but a part of us, a reflection of our own consciousness.
The idea that the universe is contained within the Earth also speaks to the principle of ‘as above, so below’, a cornerstone of hermetic philosophy. This principle suggests that the macrocosm (the universe) is mirrored in the microcosm (the Earth, and by extension, us). It’s a reminder of our interconnectedness with the cosmos, and the profound influence we can have on our reality.
This aspect of the Cellular Earth theory is a powerful tool for self-discovery and spiritual growth. It encourages us to look within, to explore the universe that exists inside us, and to recognize our inherent divinity. It’s a journey that can lead to profound insights and a deeper understanding of our place in the cosmos.
