So, obviously, the type of consciousness, the type of penetration that we have to have in order to develop intuition, the common sense, is why we are here; it is why we meditate. That is a type of intelligence that controls this infinite and that is in union with all of the Suns of this infinite, which, in turn, are related with all the galaxies of this infinite, including our solar system. It is the mixture of all of the forces, of all of the solar light. Master Jesus of Nazareth (Master Aberamentho) perceives with his common sense (with his consciousness, which is called "Paramartha") many infinites. But, they think that they are just moving further and further away from one another, into the empty space in a never ending way No: The infinite has a limit; it is called the Teuhtlampa. He names them in different ways in order for us to understand what is the Treasury of the Light? When we meditate, when we comprehend that with our consciousness, we understand that type of mentality; objective reasoning. The Judas gospel would make one huge difference if it was accepted. That is why, in Kabbalah, we call Malkuth (the Earth), the mixture. vi. p. 53-54. 'strife' published in a 1859 Bible.

We live in this infinite, with, as the Master says, its hundreds of thousands of galaxies but there are other infinites. This is because that type of intellect is not only nourished with the five senses, as the common intellect that the people of the Earth have whose intellect is governed, informed and nourished by the five senses and what is observable through the instruments that they invent with their intellect intuition, the common-sense about which we are talking about here, is nourished with the spinal medulla. Nonetheless, in the Aztec language, the language of the Nahuas that was spoken by the Toltecs in Atlantis, they called that aspect that we are addressing here, Omeyocan. They said that mankind should only fear what Darkness represents, which is hell (none developed seed-germs), since Light is imprisoned by Darkness itself and tries to free itself from it.

But, that Ing-Land is not only in the upper part of the Tree of Life, but is also found in Yesod; when a man develops, sexually speaking, from a child to maturity, his throat and voice change, becoming much deeper as a result of testosterone. As an example of the ubiquity of space; that 7th symphony of Beethoven which I spoke about earlier, it was emanating from space. That is precisely the point. As Master Samael stated in his book Cosmic Teachings of a Lama:. Donate now. Obviously, everything emerges from the Chaos. p. 123. Such Sun unifies and coordinates the Pleiades in their entirety. It did seem odd to me that the Jewish elders and the Romans required someone to identify Jesus for them, since according to the story he was already a rather well-known figure, but that was a secondary objection. Jerome several times includes Barbl in lists of portentous names current in Spanish heresy, that is, among Priscillianists; Balsamus and Leusibora being three times associated with it (Ep.

But, animals use instinct to defend themselves, to do what they have to do that instinct is intelligence that is related to the consciousness of that animal, or anima in Latin, which means "soul." Above that is another Trinity; and we are showing this with the word Hei. Now, that Hei is in each one of us too. Audience: According to scientists, 96% of the observable universe is what they call "dark matter" or "dark energy." Babel is formed with two words: Ba , which means gate, and Bel , which means Sun. Ain, the uncreated Father; the Ain Soph, the uncreated Mother; and the Ain Soph Aur, the uncreated Son, the third Abstract Aspect of the Absolute. The rune Ingwaz is made by two crosses in X, of two forces; the one above and the other below. But, you have a Solar Absolute above, as well, that sends the energy through Kether, which is the superior Bel. At least, our own sphere, which is our own physicality. The third aspect is Ain Soph Aur; another A, another Aleph. But, we have the possibility of developing it. But, of course, when we are addressing Bel, we are addressing the light. We are talking here about energies. Every Lord, every infinite has its own Barbelo. [e][12] This supposed attestation stemmed from a Targum and was merely a corrupted reading of Aramaic: , romanized: khth, lit. This is the reason why the universe is called the created Elohim or Bar Aelohim - The son of Aelohim. However "bar," in Aramaic, means son, and in particular, "son of" the word that follows. A Separate God: The Origins and Teachings of Gnosticism. We are capable of achieving that too. Barbelo is often a kind of sub-deity or perhaps emanation of "divine stuff" that comes from "the Father" or "the Great One." . That intelligence is represented by the letter Hei of the sacred name of God in Kabbalah; Iod-Hei-Vav-Hei. How could we personify the Absolute Abstract Space? So, this is how you have to understand the unfoldment, the descent of that light, little by little in us. That aspect is an archetype that in Christianity is called Jesus Christ. Jesus means Savior, and Christ relates to the light. And she intimated that what has been taken from the Mother on High by the archon who made the world, and others with himgods, demons, and angelsmust be gathered from the power in the bodies, through the male and female emissions. Their Triad was represented by () Seth, () Kain, and () Abel; Kain ( nest) represented the flesh and Abel ( vanity, the Bel) the mediator (the mediator is the Christ, the Son, the solar force). What we call Elija (), the most supreme divinity, is the space it is not even a physical or spiritual Sun; it is beyond. The first Belilin that we sing, brings the forces from above. "Saklas said to his angels, 'Let us create a human being after the likeness and the image.' And they fashioned Adam and his wife Eve." Cain murdering Abel became the downfall of humanity. 2nd Heaven. We, physically, psychologically, are amphoras. Consider the Apostle Pauls remarks to Peter on the Mosaic Law, the centerpiece of Judaism, in Galatians 2:11-21: We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is justified not by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ. All of the worlds of cosmic Consciousness are reduced to the three tables.". In many verses of the Bible, it states, "You are (the archetypes) children of the highest ( Elija)." In the graphic we see this beautiful image of the galaxy that is the neighbor of our own, which is called Andromeda: beautiful. The Gospel of Philip. In The Nag Hammadi Scriptures. 75 c. 3, p.453 c. Is it a Spirit? The Secret Book of John. In The Nag Hammadi Scriptures. [33][34][35][37] Gnostics considered the most essential part of the process of salvation to be this personal knowledge, in contrast to faith as an outlook in their worldview along with faith in the ecclesiastical authority. There are many levels of Christians. Each has years of experience teaching and working with the practices and exercises that awaken the consciousness. p. 53. In the Apocryphon of John, Yaldabaoth and Saklas are the same person. He said, "Now, look at the light of that candle" because the light was now reflected in each one of those mirrors, and the reflections were reflecting back into the other mirrors and every mirror was filled with the light of that candle. [7] The Secret Book of John adds that he had the body of a snake and the head of a lion, with eyes like lightning bolts. The Judas gospel puts legend's most notorious traitor in a new lightas the man who enjoyed his master's most intimate confidence, and who was given the crucial task of helping him shed his fleshly. [33][34][35][36] Gnosticism presents a distinction between the highest, unknowable God, and the Demiurge, "creator" of the material universe. At the moment of the baptism organized by Yaldabaoth, Sophia took on the body of Jesus and through it taught people that their destiny was the Kingdom of Light (the spiritual world), not the Kingdom of Darkness (the material universe). So, we have Kether-Chokmah-Binah. So, in those regions there exists a type of nature which is 100% perfect, in all of its kingdoms. `I am (Aleph) the first, and I am (Tav) the last, Which, as the Master Samael explains, is the Greek Alpha and Omega, but from the Hebrew language it is translated as, "I am the first and the last. Early Christians were highly critical of many of the particulars of Judaism, asserting that Christ had come to correct what the Jews had gotten wrong. Habel is the Sun, in us. Now, in the Bible, Seth is similar to Jesus Christ, in that way. In living memory, the Catholic Church invoked the verses where the Jews called for this very blood to be, not just upon their own heads, but upon their every succeeding generation. It seems quite incongruous with Christianity as we understand it today. Mircea Eliade has compared these Borborite beliefs and practices involving Barbl to Tantric rituals and beliefs, noting that both systems have a common goal of attaining primordial spiritual unity through erotic bliss and the consumption of menses and semen.[3]. The History, Mythology, and Worldview of Gnostic Christianity. It is the Solar Absolute. With that fornication, they develop the intellectual animal mind that is what Kain represents.

The relationship between sex, the solar energy and the throat? The stable is made, as you know, of many ingredients. That Sun that rotates around Alcyone is also Barbelo; any Sun is Barbelo, "the son of the Sun.". When Sophia saw the horrifying, twisted being that had come from her, she was deeply ashamed and afraid. The Gnostic text Reality of the Rulers describes him as an androgynous being, an arrogant beast that resembled an aborted fetus in both appearance and character. God doesnt create Barbelo per se; instead, she comes from him by some indirect means. It comes to my mind, one of the lectures of the Master Samael Aun Weor, who said; we have to know ourselves, and, if we know ourselves, we will know the Gods and the universe this is the Greek axiom: Homo Nosce Te Ipsum. [16][12], At least from 200 BCE onwards a tradition developed in the Graeco-Egyptian Ptolemaic Kingdom which identified Yahweh, the god of the Jews, with the Egyptian god Seth. It can be said that it is a "mixture" of the two. In order to comprehend this conjuration, we need to understand that our physicalities are crystallizations of the solar energy that came from space. Master Samael states that in that Protocosmos exists what we call the planets of Christ. Quanta and matter. The Bar is Ing, son of the Earth. When we read this, we have to comprehend that he is not addressing his physical personality, but his own spiritual force, his own archetype, which is one with that Solar Absolute. God doesn't "create" Barbelo per se; instead, she comes from him by some indirect means. Translated by Carol Harrison.
