"As above, so below" is known as the Law of Correspondence

"As above, so below" Apparently, that great Greek Philosopher Plato said this, and it has been generally accepted as true ever since, but is it really true, or not? Hermes Trismegistus or Trismegistos, the founder of Hermetism, said it too. What is above reflects in what is below. Now, God did make man in his own image, but this is as far as it goes. Man is not the same as God. God remains different. His thoughts and his ways are unknown, and perhaps unknowable by man. No, I would answer my question as asked above, regarding this quote, "as above, so below", because God's worlds operate on different systemic planes outside of the influence of Satan, or negative forces. All is love, or positive in these God worlds, that we refer to as Heaven. The Earth runs outside of these kingdoms and is certainly different from how Heaven runs, hence Jesus said this world is not my kingdom, it is outside of here. This reference to Jesus comes from Saint John's gospel, chapter 18, verse 36. Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world."

No matter who said something though, nothing should ever stop us from questioning it.
