The following clip is from a talk Cohen gave during an eight-day retreat in which he describes the moral obligation that is inherent in awakening to what he calls the “Kosmocentric perspective.”

Understanding the meaning of “moral responsability” from a “kosmic”perspective gives a great deal of meaning to everything I do in my life…every thought, every direct contact has a higher purpose…it is not just about me but about the evolution of Kosmos. This has given so much meaning to my life…I thank Andrew Cohen for awaken me to this higher perspective…
Despite all the singing, praying, preaching, teaching, revering, and
paying homage to The Gods and Goddess of past civilizations and
religions, those peoples, empires, and societies were supplanted by
their descendants, new discoveries, new knowledge, new languages
that indeed were up to date and in keeping with the changing times
and tides. To put it another way: Empires, civilizations, religions,
cultures, and societies rise and fall and change for better or worse,
depending on the season for what and the cycle for whom.
Religions, empires, and societies that we all know today will decline
and go away just as all those before; it is just a matter of time, energy,
and effort progress by The Powers and Forces of Omnipotent Nature.
Nothing remains the same forever; it is true that persons and things
either evolve or revolve — evolving is persons, places, and things
coming downward mentally, spiritually, ethically, and physically on
the left side of The Smat Circle of Order, and revolving is persons,
places, and things going upward in every way on the right side of the
same Circle of Order. And this Scribe is happy to report that the
movement and change are upward now and for the better after
Armageddon — the war for a new beginning of higher standards and
better conditions for living.
A CYCLE OF NATURE is indeed a network of laws of Nature
designed to complete a circle of activities and changes. As also
given in BOOK ONE of ” INTRODUCTION TO THE NATURE
OF NATURE,” also written by Philosopher Afroo Oonoo, the law
of a person, place, or thing is the nature of him, her, or it; and a
network of laws is a cycle, while a network of cycles is a universe
of Absolute Nature. The very importance of this to Human Beings
is the fact that our mental, spiritual, and physical existences are
parts of these laws and cycles and vice versa; and this means that
if we do live in agreement and according to the principles and
powers of The Laws and Cycles of Eternal Nature, we all who do so
can definitely live in peace, harmony, and comfort with each other.
This is one of the main aims and objectives of NoopooH and their
Positive Science Noone — to describe, define, and direct for peoples
the positive path and positive power to this destiny.
In Book One called “INTRODUCTION TO THE NATURE OF
NATURE,” this writer gave a few Laws of Nature and among them
are: “The Law of Pleasure and Pain” and “The Law of Kindred,”
and stated that these paramount Laws of Nature are THE CORE
that other Laws of Nature should be composed and constructed
around, and this fact should be emphasized whenever NATURAL
LAWS for the benefit of peoples are written or spoken.
Absolute Nature has many cycles for many persons and things as
The Smat Circle of Order indicates and the writings of Noone verify.
Of course, there are short cycles and long cycles, negative cycles
and positive cycles, downward cycles and upward cycles, destructive
cycles and also creative cycles, sex cycles and sense cycles, arc
cycles and circle-cycles, quarter cycles and half cycles, human
cycles and superhuman cycles, ball cycles and degree cycles indeed
that manifest themselves in The Laws of Nature on The Smat Circle
of Cosmos and The Smat Circle of Chaos. The point is this: Past
cultures, civilizations, empires, and religions by their passing prove
that Almighty-Absolute Nature is going to take its course for better
or worse regardless of all the praying and preaching to the contrary
and wishful thinking to the contrary. For example — past religious
civilizations have stated that The Sun would never set on their
empires, but when The Sun rises today, you can not find them.
Today’s empires and religions will suffer the same fate; all the praying
to whomever you will, changes nothing — Absolute Nature is going
to take Its course despite what one thinks or believes or tries to do
to alter it, and Noone (The Science of Sound Right Reason) informs
us what that course is in keeping with The Laws and Cycles of
Almighty Nature.
The Smat Circle of Order is INFINITE, but It exists ONLY ONE
DEGREE AT A TIME, and that one degree is ALL OF NATURE
making a one-degree circular change in all Matter of Nature.
The letter S in the word SMAT stands for Space, the letter M for
Matter, the letter A for And, and the letter T stands for Time.
Andrew Cohen is doing a Fine job of informing people in this day
and time.
Yes, it is both personal and impersonal. At one level we have to do the work ourselves (no one is coming to save us); at another level there is an ever expanding field of consciousness to support and guide us. At first it may seem impersonal but the moment I attune to it, it is my story, my responsibility, my connection to that which is so much greater than any one individual: the very fabric of creation and in this way we are all one.
Just to underscore what’s been oft-said:
To know and to come to real spiritual understanding is one part of Being Spiritual. The other part as important is to act on your understanding to help shape the world you would want to become actualized. Personally advancing spiritually is fine and good; to work on exteriorizing that understanding, committing to creating a better world in the way you visualize it is the test of that understanding. Spiritual people find ways to attempt to achieve that. Best regards, aloha,
