The Will and the Word:
How Consciousness Shapes Reality: The Work of the HinderersBy John of AllFaith © 11.30.08
The Scripture says:
"Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand!
...Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints" -- Eph 6:13, 18As people of faith we're commanded to resist evil, to hinder it and to do our best to overcome it. Never before in history has the lament been more true: The harvest is great, but the workers are few.
Will you join the spiritual resistance?
In this study we'll examine one important aspect of spiritual resistance: The Will and the Word as employed by the Hinderers. The concept is actually simple but requires effort to perfect.
Hinderers are those folks who stand in opposition to evil. The Will and the Word is one aspect of their resistance.
For clarity sake I should mention at the outset that the term should not be construed to suggest any form of Sorcery despite the shared use of the term.
The Role of the Hinderers:
The Scripture says
Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
And now ye know what hinders that he might be revealed in his time.
For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now hinders will continue to hinder, until he be taken out of the way.
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming. -- II Thess 2:5-8 (New Scofield KJV)The word hinder here is Katecho, a Greek verb meaning "to restrain or hinder (the course or progress of a thing).
A more literal translation has this verse as:
Do ye not remember that, being yet with you, these things I said to you?
and now, what is keeping down ye have known, for his being revealed in his own time, for the secret of the lawlessness doth already work, only he who is keeping down now [will hinder] -- till he may be out of the way,
and then shall be revealed the Lawless One, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the manifestation of his presence -- Young's literal translation.The Identity of the Hinderers:
The text as we have it speaks of the Hinderer as a single being, much as the Tanach often references the Jewish people as "My Servant" singular and the New Testament calls the Church the (singular) Bride of Christ, even though both groups number in the millions. In the same the Hinderers are many yet One.
There are some knowledgeable biblical commentators who believe the Hinderer is the Holy Spirit (Ruach ha Kodesh). This belief is generally based on the Nicean doctrine of the Holy Trinity, which I discuss elsewhere. In context however this can not be so because were the Spirit of God ever removed from the earth the earth would cease to exist (Acts 17:28 etc). It is only the omnipresence of the Holy One that makes existence possible.
According to the clear word of the prophets, the Hinderers will largely be slaughtered during the reign of the coming global despot. While the Spirit of God will never depart the world, the Hinderers will in this way be removed from the earth:
And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. -- Rev 6:9-11.The Hinderers are therefore willing martyrs who hinder the workings of the spirit of antichrist, especially those serving in our generation who are consciously restraining the rise of the Rex Mundi and his New World Order.
The Scripture says:
Surely, whenever and at whatever time righteousness declines, O descendant of Bharata, and there occurs a predominance of unrighteousness, at that time I manifest Myself.
In order to deliver saintly people, to destroy the wicked and to firmly reestablish religious principles, I appear age after age. -- Bhagavad Gita 4:7,8Hinderers are those who serve the One God in diverse ways and who pray for His timely intervention for the good of all living entities. At the same time they work to postpone that intervention in order to give as many people as possible the opportunity to both prepare and decide which side they are on.
Most people have now decided. Most will embrace the New World Order and the coming Rex Mundi, as the Prophets foretold. The Hinderers are the exceptions to the rule. They come from all religious and philosophical systems and act according to the Light they have been granted. They are committed to standing against the encroaching Darkness whatever the cost. In this way they are like father Noah or Manu, warning the world of coming disaster and being largely ignored.
Antichrists Many and Singular:
According to these two important prophetic verses wickedness exists in the world and always has. This is described by John the Beloved in this way:
Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
This "mystery of iniquity" is the spirit of the "many antichrists" who have always been among us since the beginning of this age. There is however a single individual who will be THE Antichrist, "that Lawless One" as we see in this verse (II Thess 2:9). It is very important that these two types of antichrists not be confused. The popular New Age Globalist bibles like the NIV (New International Version) are deliberately fostering this confusion in order to deceive the public and prepare the people to accept the coming Rex Mundi and his globalist New World Order. They are also transforming the historic Christian Faith into the foretold Laodicean Church (for more on the NIV see my study on the supremacy of the Textus Receptus).
The Apostle Paul is clear in II Thessalonians two that a single global ruler will arise in the End of Days: ... And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming...
As in the Bible, Sri Krsna assures us in the Srimad Bhagavad Gita that God will intervene when the world goes too far off tract. Such an intervention will occur in a bit over seven years, but first the "Lawless One" must arise and rule the earth. Our lot in life is to deal with him, one way or another.
Applied Consciousness:
The Will and the Word is applied consciousness. It is a vital tool in opposing the enemy. Allow me to explain:
Understanding Our Situation:
First a bit of background information. On this planet we are currently living in the fourth of four ages, known as Kali Yuga.
Kali Yuga is known as the Age on Ignorance and Confusion and accordingly many people have embraced a spirit of uncertainty, confusion and apathy, believing resistance to the emerging wickedness is futile -- as the Borg might claim -- and yet resistance is not futile -- even Captain Picard always won in the end! No, resistance to and the hindering of the Evil One is both our privilege and our duty, even as Arjuna resisted the Kauravas during the destruction at the end of Treta Yuga.
Understand however that it has been Kali Yuga for almost 6000 years (since circa 5561 B.C.E or 5769 B.C.E. according to the biblical reckoning). During this period of time there has been extreme wickedness but there has also been great goodness. Despite this, whether during pleasurable and unpleasant circumstances, our duty is to Stand for the Kingdom of God, for Dharma and righteousness.
For most of the previous six thousand years there has been a mixture of positive and negative, of good and evil. This is common for Bhuloka (our world).
Currently Great Darkness is falling and we need to Stand as never before. The balance of Light and Dark is shifting toward Night.
We can hinder the overshadowing Darkness and the further promulgation of the spirit of antichrist by the conscious application of the Will and the Word. We can likewise hinder the enthronement of the Rex Mundi and then, once the Beast takes the reigns of the EU and the Global Union, as the Great Multitude -- and in consult with the 144,000 Jewish Hinderers -- we can oppose him according to the best of our abilities. Collectively we have great power and we can use it both individually and collectively in the service of the One God. We can't stop the rise of Rex Mundi at this point, but we can (and do) hinder him in various ways.
How To Wage Spiritual Warfare:
Utilizing the Will and the Word in various ways Hinderers can influence the ongoing battle between the Light and the Darkness and hence hinder the Globalists and the Luciferian Kingdom they are establishing. The following technique can be applied to dhyana (meditation), japa mala (chanting mantras), kirtana (singing sacred hymns), artik (worship), jnana (the acquisition of knowledge), visualization and even blogging. Using it one can alter the vibrational slates that dictate the paradigms under which the culture operates.
Underlying consciously wrought words is the Will (intention) behind them. It is possible to empower the Word. Some people babel aimlessly or have their consciousness so filled with mindless trivia that they seem incapable of holding a thought in their minds for more than a few seconds. This is deliberate dis-empowering mind control, the dumbing down of the public.
Utilizing the Will the Hinderers manipulate the innate vibrations and effect reality in various ways by manifesting the desired spiritual currents.
The power of words has been described in the Tanya in this way:
Likewise with regard to the commandment of Torah study and the recital of Shema and prayer, and similar precepts, although they do not involve physical action in the strict sense... Nevertheless, it has been established that the meditation cannot take the place of speech, and that a person does not fulfill the commandment until [the words] have been uttered with the lips. And it has been established that the articulation by the lips is deemed as "action"... Hence, the more strength one puts into speech, the more of the vital soul's energy is introduced and invested into those words... Furthermore, the vital soul's energy, which is clothed in the letters of speech in Torah study or prayer... derives it's entire growth and vitality from the blood, which is of the kelipat nogah [ie the mystical serpent rod of Moses -- Gen 7:8-13], namely, all the foods and drinks which the person has eaten.
--Likutei Amarim-Tanya, chapter 11 -- KEHOT Publication Society, Brooklyn, N.Y. 1981
The essential life force is infused within the blood:
For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul -- Lev 17:11
This atonement is performed on the inner alter as described here:
Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern.
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. -- Ecclesiastes. 16:6,7This essential life force is manipulated by the implementation and activation of the Will (the intentional drawing of the life force to set purposes) through the system known as Chitti Kundalini in the East.
As the realization of what is actually happening in the world at any given "time" enlightens the individual and group consciousness, those realizations create paradigms great and small. By employing the vibrational power of words the reactions/creations of these created paradigms enter into the diverse etheric vibrational "scapes" that permeate Saguna Brahman (objective reality). These determine what we call the real world. These combined vibrations effect the fabric or Threads of Reality. By consciously employing the Will and the Word the paradigms under which the planet operates can be directed toward (or away from) spiritual harmony. Both sides employ such methods.
Generally speaking most living entities in Saguna Brahman (material existence) live in states of intellectually numbed slumber. This is encouraged by those who would control us.
From time to time events take place that disturb the slumber -- like 9-11, Katrina, the attacks on Mumbai etc. During such times of heightened awareness it is easier to impact the vibrational flow of shared consciousness by encouraging awareness because people are more open to alternative realities. All sides manipulate these increases in consciousness to their advance and purposes. This is partly why spiritual and material advancement takes place in spurts.
During periods of heightened awareness people can more easily be helped to understand what is actually taking place in the earth plane. Current events are reflections of the greater transformations (which exists harmonious with the combined consciousness of the planet). By employing the Will and the Word those tendencies that are vibrationally negative can be resisted and those that are positive enhanced.
There are two essential competing forces at work. These can be thought of as the spirit of antichrist and the spirit of Christ: the spirits and darkness and light.
As the advocates of the Two Prophecies further their agendas and develop the paradigms appropriate to each of them, all the paradigms are being deliberately shifted. What was once held to be true is now rejected as false, good becomes evil, light becomes dark, morality becomes immorality and so on. Such transitions in consciousness and belief systems are the result of competing spiritual and supramundane forces and intentional manipulation. Those who endorse globalism are furthering the causes of Secular Humanism and world unification under the authority of the Bilderberg Group and the economic unions. They are successfully deceiving the whole world and most people will embrace the Rex Mundi once he rises... as the prophets foretold:
For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now hinders will hinder, until he be taken out of the way.
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness --II Thess 2:7-12The Hinderers seek to reveal the truth to a world bent on embracing lies.
By empowering their words with consciousness, whether spoken or written with intention, the Hinderers draw the desired realities into manifestation.
As revealed in the Tanya, words are established on essential sound/thought vibrations. These vibrations can be equated with Sabdh (for those familiar with the Sankya system). The most essential of these vibrations is Omkara (the bija or seed of all life energy). While holding the various vibrations firmly in mind -- by combining the Will and the Word -- the diverse vibrations can be directed outward into the "Net" or mesh of existence. Using the Omkara as the basis of this knowledge the following chart is a useful resource:
The Omkara

all others. Basis of self-consciousness.Sum total of the lower three states
and therefore both the fourth quarter
and the whole
=OM as a soundless, single syllable.The basic process is the conscious holding of the Sabdh in mind and then elevating its vibrational purity (or frequency) "upward" until it achieves the desired scale, then releasing it. The following chart highlights some of the basic energy centers utilized in this process.
If there is interest I'll post more on this process later:
As the Hinderers advance in the practice of pranayam (the discipline of controlling the life forces/airs/vibrations circulating throughout the body) they develop greater sensitivity to the flow of these supramundane energies. This purifies their consciousness with the added benefit of making them better "channels" of the One Light. While in this state of "Lightness" the chakras (energy centers) are activated and they often experience supramundane abilities and realizations harmonious with their individual marga (i.e. those that are harmonious with the path of their current manifestation). This openness creates many interesting possibilities.
By consciously directing the frequency and flow of these Sabdh energies the Hinderers are able to direct their Will harmonious with their service to Ek Devata (the One God as conceived).
Developing the Will and the Word takes time but is an exercise well worth the effort.
Shalom and Maranatha!
