Welcome to the Kheper <\/a>website. The word Kheper means evolution<\/a>, metamorphosis, transformation, coming into being. But the rambling nature of this website, established in 1998, means that there are many topics to explore. Because my own worldview and interests have changed somewhat in the more than a decade the site has been up, there is obviously a difference in emphasis between some of the older and newer pages. The following links give a few possible starting points, but there is no reason to limit yourself to those; I have more at the main topics page<\/a> or the Search page. So, please enjoy, and if you find your favourite subject is not listed, let me know<\/a> and I’ll see if I can add it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u00a0<\/td>\nIndex of Topics<\/a>
A large but still incomplete listing of topics on this site, including coverage of various\u00a0
esoteric teachings<\/a>\u00a0and other things of interest. Most of this material is by yours truly, but there are also a few essays and pages by other writers more competent than I in various fields. This is probably the best and easisest starting point (entries listed in alphabetical order). A few topics and starting points are listed below.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nMetaphysics
My latest attempt at a single\u00a0unified\u00a0explanation of everything, a sort of grand overview of the different aspects of being and the direction and purpose of existence.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nPlanes of ExistenceMaterialism
says that only physical matter is real.\u00a0Esotericism<\/a>\u00a0asserts in contrast that reality consists of a succession of dimensions of existence, of varying “density”. For the sake of convenience I use the Neoplatonic and Theosophical terminology to refer to these gradations as “planes” of existence, although they can just as easily be called\u00a0dimensions of Consciousness. This is a new section of the site that nevertheless incorporates some of the older material I originally posted in 1998, plus some more recent insights.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nChakras<\/a>
Chakras are centers or focal-points of consciousness within the\u00a0subtle body, each corresponding to a particular aspect and polarity of being. Rather than a single line, they represent a\u00a0complex arrangement, variously described in different esoteric teachings.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nEcoGnosis and Astrognosis<\/a>
Higher knowledge about both our human social surroundings and the natural environment which is the home we share with all other life on this planet. Also regarding our place in the cosmos, and the the way cosmic forces impact on life and consciousness on Earth. Most essays by\u00a0
Steven Guth<\/a><\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nFuture MultiplexA\u00a0postmaterialistic society
is emerging right now. But will it be enough to swing the world around and avoid catastrophe? And is it the beginning of a more integral transformation? Interpretations regarding the future include gradualist, pessimistic, and consumationist scenarios, which may be social,\u00a0technological, or\u00a0metaphysical, esoteric, and spiritual.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nSentientism
Central to my worldview is the\u00a0empathic\u00a0insight that all sentient beings, regardless of species, should be treated with kindness and respect. This idea goes back to\u00a0Jainism\u00a0(the wheel on the palm symbolises the Jain Vow of\u00a0Ahimsa); to be universally valid, an\u00a0integral\u00a0philosophy or\u00a0participatory ethic\u00a0has to go beyond the\u00a0anthropocentrism\u00a0of mainstream\u00a0secularism\u00a0and religionism.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nEssays<\/a>
A selected list of several longer essays and articles that don’t fit under particular topics. Includes essays by myself and also several essays by\u00a0Robert Searle<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nLinks
Links to friends’ pages, similar projects to Kheper net, and general consciousness, science, esoterica, and alternative paradigms sites<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Esotericism and Spirituality egroup \/ mail list<\/a><\/td>\nForum<\/a>
Some years back I set up a Kheper forum, but it was much too much work, and besides, I don’t have the personality, energy, time, interest, or EQ to run such a group. You are welcome to join, and see if there is anything of interest, but this forum is no longer associated with Kheper net.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0<\/td>\nNews<\/a>
General News and Events regarding the site. New and Updated pages, and new pages in the topics directory.<\/small><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n
