New Era Consciousness (Internal Reference)¶
This version contains original source texts, translated faithfully from Chinese. For deep study use only.
I. Definition and Scope¶
New Era Consciousness begins with Seth, passes through Orin, The Law of One, Kryon, Huba's The Curtain Is About to Rise, Qian Kun Yuan Chu's series of articles, Conversations with God, Farewell Samsara, and onward to A Course in Miracles — revealing to us the vast developmental prospects of the spiritual and soul world.
New Era Consciousness is a vast and complex system. It inherits, defends, and develops virtually all the wisdom of humanity's sages and wise people, spanning domains from science, philosophy, psychology, biology, spirituality, astronomy, soul studies, pathology, theories of space, religion, cosmology, and the origins of life — to the path of Christ, Buddhism, Laozi's philosophy of the Tao, and the teachings of many Indian masters and teachers (such as Osho, Bhagwan, Krishnamurti, and others) — encompassing almost everything, rich and magnificent, laying the foundation for humanity to ascend to a new level.

II. Life Chanyuan Consciousness Is New Era Consciousness¶
Life Chanyuan consciousness is New Era Consciousness. All of the above will form the foundation and organic components of Life Chanyuan concepts. Life Chanyuan will string the countless "pearls" together with the thread of "walking the path of the Greatest Creator," synthesizing and condensing them to show humanity a clear path forward and direction of development.
Fully embracing New Era Consciousness is Life Chanyuan's strategic approach of converging all teachings into one — taking the essence, discarding the dross — to present humanity with a picture of auspicious harmony, peace, and joyfulness, fundamentally transforming humanity's living environment and welcoming the arrival of the New Era.
The computer network was created for the New Era. The computer network is a vast reservoir of resources and energy. Its significance and value will far exceed the combined value of all earth's coal, oil, and mineral resources, and may even surpass the energy provided by the sun. Fully utilizing the resources and energy provided by the computer network is the path that humanity in the New Era must clearly identify.
Everything must develop according to the principle of least resistance. No form of preaching or dissemination is as fast, economical, or convenient as the computer network. Therefore, the ancient religious approaches will be replaced by the internet, just as handwritten letters sent through the post office are being replaced. Clinging to tradition leads nowhere. Those who cling to the old ways will be swept away by the tide of the era. To enter the New Era of Life Chanyuan, the only path is to accept New Era Consciousness.

III. Core Tenets of New Era Consciousness¶
The core tenets of New Era Consciousness are:
The universe is composed of three elements: consciousness, energy, and structure. The entire universe is a great consciousness, and this consciousness is the Greatest Creator. All life in the universe is part of the Greatest Creator's consciousness. The material world is the manifestation of consciousness. Each life's world is a projection of its own consciousness. Consciousness does not perish, the soul lives eternally, and the vehicle of consciousness and soul will change as consciousness changes.
Humans have unlimited creative power and unlimited potential for development. Life is merely a brief journey for the soul. Its meaning lies in the process of the journey itself. Each person creates their own destiny and must take responsibility for everything about themselves, rather than blaming heaven and earth.
The pursuit of health, wealth, freedom, and spiritual elevation are not contradictory. Human nature must not be suppressed. One must act in accordance with one's nature. The core of elevating spirituality lies in raising awareness, transforming thinking, perfecting consciousness, and perfecting the antimatter structure of life — not in pursuing magical abilities or special powers.
All things are Chan, all things are divine revelation. The mysteries of the universe and life are hidden within the myriad changes of natural phenomena.
The essence of the Greatest Creator is nature, love, and Tao. Following the laws and principles of nature, love, and Tao is walking the path of the Greatest Creator.
The soul is not judged by the Greatest Creator or other divine beings. The universe has 36 dimensions of space. These spaces have passages — space tunnels. The past, present, and future are closely connected through time tunnels. The past can change, the present can change, and the future can change. Nothing remains forever unchanged. The principle of change is the transformation of consciousness. When consciousness changes, everything changes accordingly.
Love can purify the soul and perfect the antimatter structure of life. Love is the quality of angels. Therefore, learn to love — not only yourself, but also others and society: love the Greatest Creator, love divine beings, love nature, love life, love living.
The key to obtaining joy, happiness, and bliss is to dedicate love, release love, be grateful for everything, and strive to create.
The world perceived through the five senses is narrow. To break through these limitations and enter a broader space, one must open the spiritual senses and illuminate the mind to see one's true nature.
New Era Consciousness acknowledges the phenomenon of channeling but warns against blind belief in it. Everything must be verified through science, facts, logic, and spirituality.
Our souls are in a state of slumber in most circumstances. What we consider the real world is actually a dream. The reason we do not recognize we are dreaming is because habitual thinking is at work. New Era Consciousness asks us to awaken from this slumber, enter a more genuinely real reality, and enjoy a life that is freer, more comfortable, and free from fear.
All illness is a reflection of deficiencies in spirit and soul. To eradicate illness, one must work on consciousness and address the structure of life itself.
Qualitative change requires the accumulation of quantitative change. When quantitative change accumulates to a critical point, qualitative change inevitably occurs. When a person's cultivation practice reaches a certain level, life undergoes transformation and they will attain the realm of celestial beings, buddhas, or divine beings. The core of cultivation practice must be placed on accumulating merit; the core of refinement must be placed on the transformation of thinking — progressing from material thinking toward imagery thinking, associative thinking, illusory thinking, heart-image thinking, Taiji thinking, formless thinking, and hundun thinking.
In the universe, apart from one instance of chance, all else is inevitability. This inevitability is the operating mode of the Tao. Therefore, one must not harbor luck or resort to tricks. Deceiving others and divine beings ultimately means deceiving oneself, just as harming others and nature ultimately means harming oneself.
These are some of the core concepts of the New Era.

IV. 18 Aspects of Consciousness to Transform¶
The earth needs to undergo large-scale purification — not only purification of the heart, but also of the atmosphere, plants, and animals. A great cleanup is bound to happen. This purification will not be accomplished by humanity but by the operating laws of the Tao. The mode and procedure of purification are already set; the signals have already been sent. What we need to do now is consciously cooperate with this great purification.
We are about to enter a new homeland. The new homeland requires new character and qualities. To ensure we enter the new homeland and are not purified away, we need the following forms of consciousness:
- Move beyond atheism and evolutionary theory; instead embrace faith in the Greatest Creator and walk the path of the Greatest Creator.
- Step out of the domains of self, family, religion, party, and nation; instead form the consciousness of a citizen of the new homeland.
- Move from "existence determines consciousness" to "consciousness creates existence."
- Reject the Greatest Creator depicted in the Old Testament of the Bible; establish a new view of the Greatest Creator.
- Reject coincidence; establish a view of inevitability.
- Move from a view of disorder to a view of causality.
- Believe that outside the earth there exist life forms at different levels.
- Believe that life consists of both a physical body and a spiritual body.
- Believe that death is not the final stop of life, but the beginning of a new journey.
- Believe in the real existence of heaven and hell, and recognize that heaven consists of the Thousand-Year World, the Ten-Thousand-Year World, and the Elysium World.
- Know that there is no final judgment — judgment takes place at all times and in all places.
- Understand that your future is created by yourself.
- Understand that the quality of your future existence depends on how perfect or ugly the antimatter structure of your life is.
- Abandon the consciousness of personal heroism and elite greatness; lower yourself to the most humble position.
- Understand that what one gives and what one receives are always of equal value. Give more, receive less, accumulate merit, elevate the quality of life — only then can one enter the new homeland.
- Know that only truth, goodness, beauty, and love can perfect the structure of your life. Completely abandon attack and revenge; treat all things with a loving heart.
- Master the principle of the Möbius strip — transform opposition into unity; abandon your judgment of the world.
- Understand that life has an infinite future. Only those who trek and climb toward the highest realm of life will have a bright future.
To travel abroad, one needs a passport, visa, ticket, and simple luggage. To enter the new homeland, one must transform old consciousness. It is impossible to enter the new homeland carrying outdated consciousness.
Let your heart consciousness resonate with the cosmic consciousness that is about to arrive. Do not wait for the Greatest Creator to personally notify you — none of us is important enough to deserve the Greatest Creator's personal service.

V. New Era Consciousness Requires Leaving the Infant Stage¶
New Era Consciousness requires people to leave the infant stage. Those who cannot leave infant-stage thinking have no connection with heaven. Before Life Chanyuan was born, the existence of nations, religions, political parties, and families was legitimate. Now, their existence is irrational. In the past, we thought people who gave their lives for the nation, religious believers, party members, and those who brought glory to their ancestors were all great and worthy of respect. Now, we see them as pitiable — because they are infants who cannot grow up.

VI. New Era Consciousness as a Catalyst for Transformation¶
The age of networking combined with New Era Consciousness is a catalyst for transforming human destiny. Today, the information in a single day exceeds the information of an entire past year. The old order is gradually disintegrating — even collapsing. "The times create heroes." New Era Consciousness creates life in higher-dimensional spaces. The time has come. Seize the opportunity to transform your destiny: align with the international system, align with the celestial way of living — and great good fortune will follow.

VII. Western New Age Is Intermediate Wisdom; Life Chanyuan Is Higher Wisdom¶
Western New Era consciousness is only humanity's intermediate wisdom — definitely not higher wisdom.
After touring the entire "Grand Garden" of Western New Age thought, one must inevitably enter deeper exploration… Buddhism can ultimately only lead people to the riverbank. Buddhism is only a stepping stone, a ferry boat — not heaven itself. Therefore, after thoroughly comprehending Buddhism, one must inevitably enter Life Chanyuan. Without the baptism of Life Chanyuan's spiritual river, one absolutely cannot ascend the spiritual mountain or reach the other shore.
Having traveled all the mountains and rivers, Life Chanyuan's scenery is the most beautiful.
Life Chanyuan is humanity's last course. This is not empty talk or wild claims.

VIII. Let Consciousness Enter the New Era First (Most Recent Statement)¶
The era is developing. A developing era will not continue moving along traditional tracks in traditional modes of thought. Breaking through the constraints of traditional culture and the shackles of traditional production and living modes is what aligns with the laws and principles of the New Era's operation. If one clings to the old ways, one will inevitably be eliminated by the New Era — just as television stations and newspapers are being gradually eliminated.
Marriage and family will be eliminated. Nations will be eliminated. Political parties and religions will also be eliminated. Similarly, all current forms of currency will be eliminated, and officials and billionaires will also be eliminated. Only those with perfect soul gardens will be preserved.
Let our consciousness enter the New Era first; then strive to let our bodies also enter the New Era.

IX. Accepting New Era Consciousness Is the Only Path¶
The new era is coming, and it is bound to come. All who do not wish to perish should draw closer to New Era concepts. All who yearn for a free life in heaven should replace their old consciousness with New Era Consciousness as quickly as possible. The era is moving fast. A horse-drawn cart is too slow. Board the spaceship!
Let us meet in the Life Chanyuan era!
