Noah's Ark- Part 6

"These are the results of Noah: Noah was a righteous and perfect in his generation, and Noah walked with Elohim.  And Noah begat three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth."  Genesis 6:9-10 The three sons of Noah are symbolic of the three parts of the fully developed soul.  In spite of the degeneration that has corrupted us all, "Noah" must survive if the soul is to be developed.  This aspect of developing the soul was edited out of Christianity's teaching.  The developed soul is represented by the wedding garment mentioned by Jesus. The soul can only be made through a "second birth" taught by Jesus as resulting from the Holy Spirit (fire) and a secret living water, both which are hidden symbolically throughout the scriptures. "Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."  John 3 Birth is sexual, whether relating to physical birth or spiritual birth.  The so...

Noah's Ark- Part 5

"But Noah found grace in the eyes of Iod-Chavah." Genesis 6:8 The Hebrew name Noah has two letters.  The first letter, Nun, represents a fish.  The second letter, Chet, is the root of the word Chai, "life".  The name Noah hides these elements: the fish and life itself.   The fish represents the life forces in the water.  The source of our lives is the sexual energy.  The sperm and ovum are "fish" in the waters of sexuality.  When combined life emerges. The fish is the core symbol in all religions.  Thus "Noah" is a seed hidden inside us.  Noah is the seed of the soul. Noah represents the true nature of our psyche (the consciousness, the soul, the buddha nature)- a pure, radiant spark of the divine, which through a specific science can be grown into an angel, buddha, master, etc.   "So Elohim created Adam in their image." Genesis 1:27 The Hebrew word Elohim is plural: it means gods and goddesses. Reference~ gnosticteachin...

Noah's Ark- Part 4

The earth represents that which houses our psyche; the "earth" is our body.  We live in our "earth", the body, yet that body is not just physical.  It is also the body we inhabit when we dream, imagine, daydream, or fantasize. "And Iod-Chavah (our inner divinity) saw that the impurity (pollution) of our mind was great in the body, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only impurity continually. "And it repented Iod-Chavah that he had made the mind that is in the body, and it grieved him at his heart." "And Iod-Chavah said, I will destroy that corrupted mind whom I have created from the image of the body; both the mind and the animal ego, and the creeping thing (perverted elements in our mind), and the fowls of the heavens (distracting thoughts that fly in fantasy...")  Genesis 6 Our minds are deeply corrupted with pride, lust, anger, envy, greed, etc.  All of that exists because of the choices we have made temp...

Noah's Ark- Part 3

Cain and Abel represent the conflicts in us between the innate purity of the psyche (Abel) and the ever dissatisfied desires we have (Cain).  Our desires "kill" the purity of the psyche (Cain kills Abel).  Abel, that part of us, does not cease to exist, by "dying" is represented how it has become almost completely powerless, trapped, overwhelmed, by the spread of desire.  When desire rules us psychologically, Abel is rendered "dead".

Noah's Ark- Part 2

(Genesis 1-4 ) Adam and Eve lived in a state of bliss and knew divinity personally.  They chose to eat the "forbidden fruit" of the Tree of Knowledge.  In Hebrew, the words are written tobve rah, which means "goodness and impurity."  They imply the Tree of Knowledge is dual: it can be used for benefit through purity, or harm through pollution or impurity.  Adam and Eve broke the commandment given to them by divinity, thus they became polluted by rah: impurity.  That is how they lost the ability to walk and talk with Elohim.

Noah's Ark- Part 1

In the original Hebrew scripture there is no reference to a boat, Genesis/Bereshit 6:14 "Make thee a tebah of gopher wood..." Tebah means "chest, box, case, or hull, body."  Tebah indicates a container.  The word "ark" appears in the Latin translation as "arca."  It translates into a chest, both as a box and the trunk of the human body and also as a coffin. In the Bible, there are several types of "arks."  In each case, the "ark" is a container that protects something sacred.  It is like the "hull" of a seed: it protects the life-giving elements inside.  The word "ark" is related to "arcane, arcanum" which means something hidden, a secret, known only to those specially informed.  The arcane knowledge has always been reserved for those who were prepared beforehand to use it.

My Dream of Noah's Ark

From Journal Entry 9/2013 I am standing in front of the Ark.  Noah is there with the animals. Noah is like a giant. The air is vibrating with God's consciousness. It penetrates my being . I feel alive and am in awe of Noah's greatness. Everything from the animals, the landscape, the sky is beautiful. The story of Noah would take on a personal spiritual meaning for me. As I dug deeper into the mystical meaning of Noah and the Ark, I would find it's value that spoke to my core answering my questions, "Why am I really here, why is the world the way it is, and who am I ?" It's value extends to all of humanity, speaks to our divinity, sheds light on our suffering, and how to begin the journey back to the Godhead. To understand the story of Noah, one must begin in the Garden of Eden where man and woman walked and talked with God before their fall from grace. When Cain and Abel come along, your introduced to the divinity within us and the ego that corrupts our...

Love's Annihilation

If in heaven there is no you, then it is not heaven.  If in hell I am cast, it's flames will not burn like the burn of separation from you.   Oh Beloved, I have tasted the wine of union and neither heaven or hell has a hold on me.  Your love illuminates my heart, and even it's light pierces the veil of heaven that the angels become jealous and the demons in the pit of hell hide in terror.   My eyes are tired and sore from all my tears of longing for you.  The ocean that separates us hinders my soul.  Cast me not into Heaven or Hell!  Like a moth drawn to a flame, I only desire love's annihilation. 

Chief Seattle's Letter to US Government 1852

Chief Seattle was the last spokesmen of the Paleolithic moral order.  The US Government inquired about buying the tribal lands for the arriving people of the US in 1852. The following is the letter Chief Seattle wrote in reply: "The President in Washington sends word that he wishes to buy our land.  But how can you buy or sell the sky? The land?  The idea is strange to us.  If we do not own the freshness of the air and the sparkle of the water, how can you buy them? "Every part of this earth is sacred to my people.  Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every meadow, every humming insect.  All are holy in the memory and experience of my people. "We know the sap which courses through the trees as we know the blood that courses through our veins.  We are part of the earth and it is part of us.  The perfumed flowers are our sisters.  The bear, the deer, the great eagle, these are our brothers.  The...
