The Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity; the omnipresence of God; the cloven tongues of fire that focus the balance of the Father-Mother God in the white fire core of being, also called the sacred fire; the energies of Life that infuse a cosmos. It is the Personal Impersonality of the Godhead.

     In the Hindu Trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, the Holy Spirit corresponds to Shiva, known as the Destroyer/Deliverer because his all-consuming Love, when invoked in the planes of Matter, binds the forces of evil and transmutes the cause and effect of man's miscreations, thus delivering him from the prison house of karma.

     To the early Christian thinkers the Holy Spirit was the empowering presence of God. The Holy Spirit is a facilitator, a comforter, a source of inspiration.

      In Jewish tradition, the Holy Spirit is a general term for enlightenment and inspiration. Maimonides says the person who has merited receiving the Holy Spirit is transformed and can perceive things that are not normally accessible.

      Kabbalist Moses Luzato describes the Holy Spirit as a form of enlightenment that is above human reason and intellect. He calls it "bestowed enlightenment."

     The Person and the Flame of the Holy Spirit is the Comforter whom Jesus promised would come when our Lord took his leave--to enlighten us, to teach us, and to bring all things to our remembrance that beloved Jesus has taught us, both in heaven and on earth. Each time a son or daughter of God ascends into the Presence of the I AM THAT I AM, the Holy Spirit descends to fill the void and to magnify the Lord's Presence on earth. This is the ritual of the descent of the Holy Ghost promised by Jesus to his disciples which took place on Pentecost.
