The Fourth Density

The term "fourth density", in the way we will be using it in this article, was coined by members of Royal Priest Research. They proposed a system of looking at all life in the universe and measuring its "rate of vibration of consciousness" on a scale of seven densities.

The densities are somewhat analogous to the three states of matter, with a range of possible temperatures (or rate of vibration of molecules) in each one. Below 0 degrees Celsius, water is a solid. Between 0 and 100 degrees Celsius, water is a liquid. And above 100 degrees Celsius, water is a gas.

Life is also expressed in different rates of vibration of consciousness, or levels of complexity. The first density encompasses many things so simple that they don't even fit within the common human definition of life: rocks, minerals, water, and single-celled life forms.

The second density encompasses most things we recognize as alive on this planet, namely plants and animals. While it is possible for these forms of life to be very intelligent and express a full range of emotions, they are innocent of true self-awareness, and live without judgement.

The third density is the rate of vibration of consciousness that human beings have enjoyed throughout their recorded history. This is a density which we share with dolphins and whales. Self-awareness and sentience come at the cost of this density's defining attribute: separation. All too often we feel that we are separate from each other, from our communities and governments, from our environment, and particularly from our Creator. And we act on that premise of separation constantly.

The story of Adam & Eve acquiring the forbidden fruit of the knowledge of good & evil (polarized separation) can be seen as an attempt to chronicle the shift in the focus of our species from the second density to the third. This is not, however, an experience so far removed from us in time that we have no connection with it.

Each of us goes through a similar process individually within our natural life cycle. When a fetus is first conceived, the focus of its consciousness is in the first density. Around birth, the focus graduates to the second density, and the innocence of a child's behaviour mirrors that of most of the rest of the animal kingdom. The shift from second to third density in most people's lifetimes occurs at the beginning of that "teenage rebellion" phase, or thereabouts, as sentience and the recognition of the self settles in, and the individual wants to express itself and become its own separate identity.

I still remember vividly, when I was about 10 or 11 years old, thinking that my all-pervasive conscious awareness could be focused anywhere in the world, thinking any of trillions of combinations of thoughts and directing countless number of actions and interactions.... and yet here it was focused entirely within this one individual young person, sitting in a long, bright yellow school bus, staring out the window at the grass and countryside. And I wondered, why this individual? What in particular am I here to learn by becoming him? The thought sent a chill down my spine, and a thril through my mind, largely because it was so new. Why had I never thought that before? I went over the sequence of thoughts in my head several more times, until I had diluted the experience, but I often now wonder if that was my transition from second to third density, and what keys there might have been in it to aid my upcoming transition from third to fourth....

Sadly, historically, most human beings die before evolving to the next density after the third. But this is about to change, and environmental factors and genetics are playing their part. Humans, dolphins, and whales are evolving to a point where adulthood will be expressed in the fourth density. It may take up to 300 years for the full physical adaptation to complete itself, but the rate of vibration of consciousness itself will advance to fourth density in this generation.

The fourth density can be summarized by the idea of integration. One retains the self-awareness of the third density while regaining the acceptance of harmony and unity that defines the second density. One loses one's blindness of the various ways in which we create all of our own outcomes, and it becomes less of a frustrating struggle to express ourselves, and more of a creative excitement.

Indeed, it is one of the cornerstones in most of the New Age movement that the human population of Earth is transforming, and transforming from the 3rd to 4th "something". Many sources fill in the "something" with the word "dimension", which has already had so many other interesting meanings in science and science fiction that it sounds like a secret hidden place. I much prefer the word "density", because I feel it can be defined to a much greater degree of specificity, and more easily recognized as a complexity of consciousness in conversation.

For me the most dramatic result of this transformation from 3rd to 4th density will be a gross improvement in our relationships with each other and our environment. We will treat each other with greater respect and fairness, and have a more sustainable, thriving culture in harmony with our environment on the Earth.

For those who wish to learn more about this, I will recommmend two sources: Royal Priest Research has put out many outstanding audio cassettes on these and other fascinating subjects, but the one I find most useful and have returned to time and again is called "4th Density Relationships." The website for Royal Priest Research is named after its most famous founding member, Lyssa Royal Holt: lyssaroyal.com. "4th Density Relationships" is a double cassette edition, listed as number 112 in their audio catalogue.

However, New Age material is not for everyone. One very, very excellent way of achieving the same transformation from an extremely practical point of view is outlined in the books, tapes, and other material of Dr. Stephen Covey. Firstly, the balance between self-aware individual concerns and harmonious public creativity is very well emphasized, but perhaps more importantly, the steps to creating a harmonious public victory are very well outlined. While many other habits may seem obvious and have been covered in other books, Covey seems to have cornered the market on Habit 5, detailing what it is, what you need to have covered previously to make it work (Habits 1-4), and knowing why you're doing it and where you're headed next. The concept is simple enough in itself, but putting it into practice takes practice. Exercising this habit will evolve you, and probably help evolve those around you too.
