The Fourth Internal Monad
+self-realization -acquiescence
(excerpt from a private session)
Introduction
The Fourth Internal Monad is the personal measurement between what was “planned” for the lifetime and what has actually been accomplished to date, and what might now be accomplished based on momentum from the current position within the life. This is where the Personality and Essence become “permanently” aligned or not.
The Essence is either allowed freedom of manifestation or it is rejected as a source.
To make simple sense of this Monad, it is the “regaining of innocence”.
This is where you integrate the childish aspects of you into the adult version of your life as you have become. If major changes are to be a part of the transition to a “smoother” life, these changes can be drastic and threatening to the Personality as judgment may spring forth that its own decisions from the past were “mistakes”. In reality, the decisions were not mistakes; they were simply experiences.
These experiences, however harshly judged, have led you to a place of potential self-realization. It is your choice to co-create the changes (the positive passage through the Monad), or to resign yourself to being overwhelmed (negative passage).
If this Monad can be seen as an opportunity to free the “child within”, then much is gained in your understanding of how to remain in the positive aspects of the passage. The hallmark of positive passage through this Monad is in freeing yourself from what you think you SHOULD do and, instead, discovering what you love to do, in terms of external reality fulfillment.
We remind you that you WILL move through the entire spectrum of the Monad, Positive Poles and Negative Poles, as you progress. It is as necessary as breathing "in" and "out". Reminding yourself that the point of the negative pole is a means to “look at” what you might want to change, upgrade, or accept, will do much in freeing you from severe reactions and Chief Feature "tricks".
Those of you who have not completed the 3rd Internal Monad successfully (from the Positive Poles), you may find yourselves having to “go back” to the struggle of learning psychological independence before you can move on. The 3rd Internal Monad deals with the fragment comprehending their independence from the source that supported them through the first part of their life. It is not whether a fragment still depends on their source or not, it is simply whether they recognize they are not defined by that source.
A person who would not pass completely though a stage within a Monad will live within that frame of reference for the remainder of the lifetime. Incompletion, or Negative Pole completion through Monad 4 would find the person living in relentless self-examination and criticism of their choices, possibly reverting to the past as a source of blame for their behavior. This fragment will always feel unfulfilled.
We remind you that this information is shared a map, not as another form of fear to be used against the self. If you are driving through a passage up a mountain-side and we would note that to certain routes would give your more challenge or diversion from the destination, this would not take from the absolute choices that you have. It is always possible to complete a Monad in the Positive Poles from any point within the life. You are never trapped beyond your willingness to progress.
Remember that the Fourth Internal Monad is the personal measurement between what was “planned” for the lifetime and what can actually now be accomplished based on projections from your current position. This is where the Personality and Essence become “permanently” aligned or not. A “stabilization of manifestation” Monad in terms of Perceiver and Perceived.
Stage 1: INITIATION
+enthusiasm -indifference
Stage 1: This stage is hardly noticeable since you have only just placed your consciousness into the new context. This stage relates to the Instinctive Center, therefore “kicking in” the Monad without needing to be conscious of this. Indications of the initial stage are usually marked by enthusiasm and anticipation. A simple delight in your potential future or accomplishments. Since this is simply a technical reference, and not really measurable enough to recognize, we suggest using the signs of the Second Stage as a starting point, possibly “working back” to a point where you might have seen the initial stages begin to manifest. This Stage, then, evaluates your sense of Trust.
Stage 2: INTROSPECTION
+awareness -brooding
Stage 2: This stage is heavily marked by dread, anxiety, and intense introspection. Depending on the nature of the Monad, your resistance to it, and Overleaves, you may experience anything from a realization of your personal worth, to a realization of your life's impact, or virtual self implosion and degradation. If implosion occurs, this Monad would not be completed. A person who would not pass completely though a stage within a Monad will live within that frame of reference for the remainder of the lifetime. In this case, in Monad 4, the person would live in relentless self-examination and criticism of their choices, possibly reverting to the past as a source for their behaviour. Not all will exemplify this behaviour, but we have seen enough of a consistency to mention it here.
Different cultures will respond to this stage, or Monad for that matter, depending on parental upbringing and definitions of authority. Since this is already an introspective stage, in the context of a Monad to evaluate accomplishment, this may be experienced as the Scary Parent or Authority surely going to reprimand or belittle you, or as the Supportive Parent or Authority to gently nudge and concur. So, then, this Stage evaluates your perceptions of Authority.
Stage 2 brings up energy from the Emotional Center.
Stage 3: REALIZATION
+freedom -separation
This Intellectually centered Stage begins to release the ideas of the past as a source for the future. New ideas and identities will emerge here. Most realizations will be reserved for inner exploration, but, nonetheless, a change has taken place in how the individual views its expression as a part of a larger picture. On the more expansive side, one knows what must begin to be done, and starts to anticipate a general plan, not always with clarity, but with a certainty that “something must be done”. On the more constricting side, one begins to pull back from the future and “hide within” , or away from external reflections. This stage evaluates your perception of Responsibility. This Stage usually lasts the longest, especially in the Fourth Internal Monad, as you probe your beliefs.
Stage 4: MANIFESTATION
+purpose -otiose
This Stage brings energy out through the Moving Center as you begin now to express to yourself, and others, more confidently what/who you are. In the context of the Fourth Monad, it is where you begin doing or, at least, pursuing/discovering what you are pulled to do as a reflection of your “contribution” and original Tasks. Successful movement through this is seen as a comfortable expression of your daily activities and endeavors. Resisting this Stage and remaining here would result in sluggishness, ineffective portrayals of self, and sometimes rage/anger in place of empowerment. This stage explores your concepts of Purpose.
Stage 5: CONTENTMENT
+satisfaction -contention
Finally you begin to feel/see some satisfaction from your progress through the Internal Monad. In the context of the Fourth Internal Monad, whether you have completed or accomplished a Task becomes irrelevant against the contentment of what you choose to do. In this Stage, you realize the amount of density you have been containing and you begin to “lighten up” about your movement. In the positive pole you will see personal happiness now becoming a factor in your decisions, and in this Fourth Monad, you've released treasured securities found in the oppressive/elusive “big plan or PURPOSE”, and find this more appropriate guide. Otherwise, the negative pole finds an individual always at odds with their environment, always in a state of contention and debate about their worth/purpose. This stage evaluates your perceptions of Love. The Higher Emotional Center is highlighted here.
Stage 6: MAGNETIZATION
+attraction -repulsion
In this Stage, you now begin to draw in your agreements, Karma, and Support for new perspectives, or reconnect/stabilize existing ones. The positive pole maintains clear communication, acknowledgment of Traveling Companions, and a more accurate view of the future. You now see with clarity the long-term impact of your efforts alongside the current “demands”. Those who find themselves in a state of rejection, isolation, and depression, have chosen to experience the negative pole. A sense of deep longing begins to unfold in the negative pole of Stage 6, since so much has been deemed “unacceptable”. This stage opens you to your perceptions of Truth.
Stage 7: EMANATION
+alignment -incongruity
In this stage you find the peace of routine that becomes you. A sense of wholeness returns and “getting back” to your life. In the positive pole, alignment occurs with Essence; in the negative pole, life becomes incongruous and sporadic in nature, with no bearing. Regardless of the pole, you will emanate your sense of self at that point with no resistance. This stage engages your Higher Moving Center, and examines Beauty, or Energy.
Conclusion
It is important here to note that a completion of the Monad does not necessarily mean a “positive” completion. In most cases where the negative pole becomes emphasized, completion is not reached due to the internal degradation and combustion that occurs. Many do complete the Monad, however, within parameters acceptable to them that would be regarded as the negative pole. This is the choice of the individual and has no bearing on their being a “good” or “bad” person; we did not say this, nor do we imply this. We merely state the differentiation between what is expansive and self aware, and what is not.
