SWORDS
26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Mt.10:34 "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword."
Joel 3:10 Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong
Luk 22:38 And they said Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough?
Lk.12:51 "Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth I tell you, Nay; but rather division (to separate the higher mind from the lower ego): For from henceforth there shall be five (the five senses) in one house divided, three against two, and two against three (The internal war by the forces of the three, the intellectual the emotional and the physical).
The father (the mind) shall be divided against the son (the off spring of this lower mind thinking), and the son against the father (same); the mother against the daughter (lower emotions against the higher spiritual emotions), and the daughter against the mother (same); the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law." ( the higher spiritual, mother in law against the lower emotional, daughter in law )
Lk.22:36 "He that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one."
Garments are symbols of the ego constructs of the psyche. Sell your ego in favor of higher spiritual things (swords).
So which is it, do we beat swords into plowshares or beat plowshares into swords, or do we sell our clothes and go buy a sword or do we need two swords?
Plowshares are symbols of thoughts that are conducive to the higher emotions, they plow up the hardened earth (ego constructs) and make way for new seeds (higher spiritual truths)
Swords as with all biblical symbols have a dual meaning, their are higher spiritual swords and then their are lower emotional swords.
Swords in a higher sense are a symbol of the outgoing positive energy of the higher mind, do do battle with the lower mind or ego.
In a lower sense the sword is the destructive energy and emotional outbursts that proceed form the lower mind (Egypt) the first three chakras of the body.
26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
The higher consciousness counsels action from the higher and restraint is placed on the lower desires and emotions. "they that take this sword" that is these aggressive minds or qualities which trust to measures which are the outcome of the physical force and the emotions, however distinguished, reap as they sow.
They are employing means which bring about results in precise accordance with the intent with which they are employed. they are in peril of setting in operation forces which they but imperfectly understand, by sword nothing else is signified but truth fighting against false and destroying them. And in an opposite sense, the false fighting against truth.
The ongoing internal battle in us all, which can manifest outwardly and do great harm to others, our children, our spouses, in short everyone around us. It is sharp an slices to the inner core of the mind of those that receive it. it is the sword that was forged in Egypt during the captivity of the Is Ra ELites. It has been sharpened and tempered by the best of the forgers in that land of Egypt.
The war is stronger in some than it is in others, it all depends upon the severity of the animal nature and how much of a grip it has on the mind, a Scorpio is more subject to the the lower mind than any other sign, but has greatest capacity of transformation to the Eagle (the higher state). Scorpios are helpless at times to control the animal nature and can cause tremendous grief for all those around them. As Paul said it's not me that sins, but the sin (emotions) in me, my own uncontrolled lower nature.
"the sword of the spirit which is the word of god" eph 6;17
Spiritual energy from within is the divine higher expression of truth outwardly manifested.
Two swords
Symbolic of two modes of outgoing energy.
Luke 22:38 And they said Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough?
This saying refers refers to the sword of the spirit and to the sword of the intellect which trusts to it's much might. The two energies are in apparent conflict, the one with the other.
yet each is well in it's appointed place. the energies may therefore be taken as signs of inner development, and as indicating inward spiritual growth which are ultimately to fit the users for their true place in the scheme of the souls evolution.
26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Notice that Jesus refers to the sword as HIS, he is saying HIS place, why didn't Jesus say IT'S place? Because the sword in this case is the lower sword, the sword that proceeds from the lower emotions, and here Jesus refers to this as HIS, since it is NOT a literal sword. His or him is referring to the mind in it's lower sense "his"
If we use the lower sword we will die by it, it will bring whaling and gnashing of teeth, because of the destruction of someone else s mind, will cause YOU and I much grief when we realize the damage we have caused another by our lower emotional outbursts, fighting with harsh words, yelling, screaming, putting someone down with words etc.. this is the sword we die by. it's the sword of destruction of the mind.
The higher sword that Jesus said to go and get is the sword of God or the higher consciousness, when we utilize this sword in our minds, it will destroy the lower sword and kill it's power.
The lower sword is 666 the beast within us all.
As Jesus said "your enemies are those of your own house (mind)"
Luk 22:38 And they said Lord, behold here are two swords (the higher intellect coupled with the higher consciousness). And he said unto them, It is enough?
I hope so!!!
Satan The force of self-centerdness, self-gratification, self-indulgence,
self-importance, self-righteousness, self-consciousness, self-glorification,
self-delusion, self-condemnation, self, ego, the "false god," the "beast"
As I was listening to Neil Diamond sing Jonathan today, I discovered the words in the song and what they meant.
Here are the words, and pay careful attention to sand and stone, then holy holy, then read the rest.
Jonathan
"When the sand becomes the stone, which began the spark turned into living bone, holy, holy sanctus, sanctus"
"You will begin to touch heaven, the voice of the silent. the sun god within".
What you have just read is that the Pineal gland in it's dormant state is called brain sand, because it's a sandy like substance, then when you stimulate the Pineal in meditation it becomes hard like a rock, then the Electrical energy (spark) is created in the fornix (furnace of the brain), then the temple is the Holy Sanctus. Notice the song line says that it is a living bone. LIVING is the clue!
Right there in the song, and we all missed it, now just read Jesus' parables.
Jesus tells us that the wise builder dug down to the rock so that he could build his house upon it. The rock in this context is not the same as the designation given by Jesus to the disciple Peter:
Matthew 16:18 - And I tell you that you are Peter (gr. petros), and on this rock (gr. petra, stone) I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. The lower mind cannot enter within the holy sanctum, as long as you're in meditation, Hades is locked out. But once meditation is over all bets are off.
The word Peter is translated from is "petros" which signifies a rock or a stone, such as we would be able to pick up to carry, throw, or place in a wall. The word rock is itself translated from the Greek word "petra" and is a stronger version of the word "petros" meaning a more substantial type of rock such as a crag or projecting ledge. While petros would be a stone such as is used in the wall of a house, petra would be the rock upon which the house would be built. Staying with Jesus' statement to Peter, what He was saying was that He would build His Church by using Peter stones (petros) laid upon the foundation (petra) of faith.
This is the same use of rock, or petra, that Jesus employs in the parable of the wise and foolish builders; as a foundation suitable for building upon,
Matthew
"All those who listen to my words and do something about them are like a wise man who builds his house on a rock. The man laid a strong foundation by digging deep into the earth (in mysticism the earth means MIND). Then he worked carefully and slowly making sure the building was strong and secure on the rock. And then the rains and floods came and the wind blew hard and beat against the house. But the house did not fall because it was built on a strong foundation.
Notice that the meditation wasn't hurried, it was careful and slow.
The floods, the wind and so forth are the tempests that come from the lower emotional thinking, if there is meditation and the pineal gland is focused on it is a rock and all is well, these things from the lower mind will not harm you.
But the person who hears my words and does nothing with them is like a stupid or foolish man who built his house on the sand. This man did not build a strong deep foundation and built his house very quickly. His tall house was built fast and he moved in feeling safe. Soon the rains and floods came and the wind blew beating against the house. The tall house without a strong foundation just couldn't stand up to the flooding and winds and it cracked and the whole house collapsed."
If you do not enter within in meditation, the pineal gland remains atrophied and has the constancy of sand, now when the internal storms come against you, you have no defense and you crack, then depression, illness etc follows this house (temple) that is built on sand collapses under the weight of thought (iron). Thought is IRON in biblical symbolism. remember god could not drive out those chariots of IRON in their valleys (lower levels of thought), only YOU can do that by rising above thought as Jesus instructed.
This man did not build a strong deep foundation and built his house very quickly. His tall house was built fast and he moved in feeling safe. This is someone that does a hurried type of meditation and cannot still the mind.
So we see how these parables have deep meanings pointing to the brain and it's structure, the scriptures are loaded with these references.
The crowds were surprised at Jesus' story. Jesus warned them that if the people did not build their life on a deep foundation and follow his teachings then they too would find that their house had fallen down.
Questions Why do you think Jesus used the parable about a house as a way to show people they needed to do more than just hear his teachings? Who did the two builders represent?
Why is it important for us to follow Jesus teachings?
Because he said "If your eye be single, your body will fill with light" god
And jacob saw god face to face in the land of peniel (Pineal gland) of the brain.
Jesus' church is built upon the rock (peter) the energized Pineal gland, the stone that the builders rejected.
Jonathan
When the sand becomes the stone, which began the spark turned into living bone, holy, holy sanctus, sanctus
You will begin to touch heaven, the voice of the silent. the sun god within.
That's your Pineal gland.
Neat HUH?
When the sand becomes the stone, which began the spark turned into living bone, holy, holy sanctus, sanctus
In the Bible, in the terminology of theology, the self-consciousness is often called Adam. An ancient and occult proverb says that Adam was set in the Garden of Eden to grow roses. The Garden of Eden is an allegory for the human body, though unfortunately most of you are not told this by the orthodox churches.
Moreover, what is the consequence? Most people think this is one of the quaintest stories ever written, this story of the Garden of Eden. Being so full of contradictions, people think it is merely a whimsical superstition trying to explain something that is not explainable. There is a theological phrase, which we meet often in the Scriptures, "the Old Adam." The Old Adam is the "natural man."
THE MAGICIAN in this card is the SPIRITUAL MAN. Spiritual man has made himself out of the natural man by working on himself. In this card, you see him cultivating his roses, making himself spiritual; the garden is his own body. Stripped of this little allegory it means the self-conscious was set in the body to refine the desire of the body--to civilize it, as we say. Our body is the first medium of our activity, and all our activity of expression must be manifested by means of our body on this physical plane. It is the mechanism of our expression.
If the Garden of Eden is our body, and Adam is the self-conscious mind, then who is Eve? Eve is the ruling mentality in the subconscious, the Collective Subconscious. We have two different consciousnesses in our body: the self-conscious, or Adam, and the subconscious, or Eve. The work of all practical occultism is to teach us to balance them. Tarot calls Eve THE EMPRESS (card III), or Venus. At present, your sub-conscious vastly outweighs your self-conscious, though you think it is just the other way around. You think your self-conscious outweighs your subconscious. Let us look at that more closely.
The Center, BETH, stands for the thinking lobe of the brain and that part of it, which is greatest, the PINEAL GLAND. The Pineal Gland is shaped like a pine cone, which is why it is called pineal. In dreams and in myths the pine tree is constantly used as a symbol of intuition for the same reason. Intuition comes from the Pineal Gland. The PITUITARY GLAND is sometimes called the "master gland," and the glands it controls are called "target glands." The Pituitary was once believed to be of little or no importance.
It is now known to be extremely important in releasing hormones, and some of these control the activity of the other endocrine glands. It was to these glands that the Master Jesus made reference when He said, "Blessed are the eyes that see." As its name signifies, the Pineal Gland is the sacred pine cone in man--the eye single, which cannot be opened until the Spirit Fire is raised through the sacred seals which are called in orthodox religion the Seven Churches in Asia, the Seven Golden Candlesticks, and which are called in Eastern teachings, Chakras.
The Pineal Gland is about the size of a pea and it is located in the top part of the center of the brain. It possesses a very peculiar body, almost like a hive. It is full of little pigeonholes filled with a granular substance, which is called "brain sand." When you read in Scripture that a person goes up to the Mount to pray, it means he sends his consciousness into his Pineal Gland. You might recall that Moses went to Mount Sinai to receive the Law and that Jesus was always going up onto the Mount to pray. Why did they not receive the Law and pray on the plain? That is what is meant by these sayings. Prayer, then, is for "High Places" in the occult reading of the Scriptures.
BLACK in the tarot cards has two meanings: a lower meaning and higher one. The lower is IGNORANCE and the higher is MYSTICAL KNOWLEDGE. STONE and stone color in all the cards have two meanings. The lower meaning of Stone signifies the NATURAL BODY, the physical body, which the Bible says is made out of the dust, a mineral. Remember that dirt is powdered stone.
The higher meaning signifies the UNION OF THE SON (dust) WITH THE FATHER (stone): that is to say, the union of the personality with the Higher Self. This union is brought about when the brain sand, in the Pineal Gland, is fused into the crystal stone. When it is fused we become, in the occult use of the word, ALIVE. Hence, the pair of opposites the letter stands for and this is precisely the use of the two words, the quick and the dead, in the Gospel narrative. Whenever Jesus speaks of the quick and the dead, the quick means those people whose Pineal Gland is functioning. By the dead, he means ordinary people.
It should be quite apparent to any careful reader that many expressions in the Scriptures have a double meaning very different from their ordinary meaning; words such as faith, death, birth, blindness, and poverty. Let us take one of these beatitudes: "Blessed are the poor in spirit." What a strange expression. Why should the poor in spirit be blessed? It certainly does not mean being spiritless and not standing for your rights. It must have some ethical meaning. The ethical meaning is non-attachment to THINGS. Blessed are they whose life is not in things, in possessions, or in acquisitions.
One of the central ideas of Jesus was that the multitude should be taught in parables, and that the hidden things should be revealed only to those who are ready for them. It is constantly forgotten by the orthodox churches (if it was ever known) that much of what Jesus said was intended only for his disciples. "I teach you," he said, "the real mystery of the things of the Kingdom of Heaven.
I teach the multitude in parables." He cautioned them against "casting their pearls before swine." The things that were meant for the quick should never be cast before the dead. The churches have never made any satisfactory explanation of these statements. Surely, the teachings of Jesus would have no point unless they were meant for everybody, unless there is a hidden meaning in them. What did Jesus mean by saying, "Don't cast your pearls before swine?" He told his disciples he would reveal to them the mystery of the Kingdom of Heaven.
The principal idea in the Ancient Mysteries was that man, by his own work upon himself, died and was born again into a higher type of man. The Old Adam, the natural man, died and was born into the spiritual man. The ordinary, unawakened person Jesus referred to as the blind and the deaf by the words, "Those who have eyes to see, let them see, and those who have ears to hear, let them hear."
Those who were in the graves did not mean the dead people, but those who had not awakened their Pineal Gland--those people subscribing to orthodox knowledge. The word dead ordinarily means those who are in their graves. He said that He came to teach both the quick and the dead. To the quick, He taught the mysteries of the coming of Heaven. To the dead He talked in instructive parables. The quick, or alive, were those who had reconstructed their bodies, who had made the spiritual man out of the natural man.
The chief index of this reconstruction is the awakened Pineal Gland. The highest function of Mercury, the mind, is to awaken the Pineal Gland and, by its use, bring down the White Light from the White Plane into our physical bodies.
“In the centre of the human head within the structure of the brain there is an organ shaped like a pyramid, the pineal gland. This pineal gland, situated in the vicinity of the corpus quadrigemina and the optic thalamus
brain sand and pineal gland, the pineal secretes out of itself the so-called brain sand, minute lemon-yellow stones which lie in little heaps at one end of the pineal gland, and which are in fact the mineral element in the human head. If they do not lie there, if man does not bear this brain-sand, this mineral element, within him, he becomes an idiot or a cretin. In the case of normal people the pineal gland is comparatively large. In cretins pineal glands have been found which are actually no larger than hemp seeds; these cannot secrete the brain-sand.
It is actually in this mineral deposit that the spirit-man is situated; and this already indicates that what is living cannot harbour the spirit, but that the human spirit needs the nonliving as its centre-point, that this is above all things necessary to it as independent living spirit.”
Spirit Man, this Phantom form of absolute secreted wisdom, meaning that the record in the crystal structures of the secretions of the pineal gland called brain-sand, were saturated with the Christ Being’s higher descending light. In three phases it was saturated by Zarathustra’s mighty intelligence and Buddha’s infinite compassion.
The three crucifixions, with the Nazarene being in the middle [2 others in the legend were supposedly crucified with the Nazarene] is another allegory symbolizing the main heart chakra and the three knots, also known as "granthis" in Sanskrit. These knots are at the base, heart and sixth chakras and must be opened before the kundalini can ascend. The heart chakra is located in the middle and is the connector between the upper and lower chakras.
The Nazarene's ascent into "Heaven" is another concept of the kundalini rising to the crown chakra. Heaven, Earth, and Hell are all concepts stolen from Taoism, which preceded Christianity and Judaism. Heaven is symbolic of the seventh chakra, also known as the "crown chakra." The earth or "middle kingdom" is symbolic of the heart chakra and "Hell" symbolizes the base chakra, where the hot fiery serpent kundalini lies dormant.
The "miracles" that the fictitious Nazarene performed are also an ALLEGORY and a CONCEPT of what the witch power can do. The prophesies of the Nazarene are also ALLEGORIES of the psychic abilities that result from activating one's own witch power.
The 12 apostles are corruptions of the 12 signs of the zodiac and also symbolize the witch's coven, along with the Nazarene, being the 13th member. Traditionally, there are 13 members to a coven. There are also 13 primary chakras within the human soul.
The Nazarene lived for a supposed 33 years. This again is another concept- the 33 vertebrae of the human spine where the kundalini serpent ascends.
Gospel of Philip
Blessed is the one who on no occasion caused a soul to suffer. That person is Jesus Christ. He came to the whole place and did not burden anyone. Therefore, blessed is the one who is like this, because he is a perfect man. For the Word tells us that this kind is difficult to define.
How shall we be able to accomplish such a great thing? How will he give everyone comfort? Above all, it is not proper to cause anyone distress - whether the person is great or small, unbeliever or believer - and then give comfort only to those who take satisfaction in good deeds.
Some find it advantageous to give comfort to the one who has fared well. He who does good deeds cannot give comfort to such people, for he does not seize whatever he likes. He is unable to cause distress, however, since he does not afflict them.
To be sure, the one who fares well sometimes causes people distress - not that he intends to do so; rather, it is their own wickedness which is responsible for their distress. He who possesses the qualities (of the perfect man) bestows joy upon the good. Some, however, are terribly distressed by all this.
Philip
The chrism is superior to baptism, for it is from the word "Chrism" that we have been called "Christians," certainly not because of the word "baptism". And it is because of the chrism that "the Christ" has his name.
For the Father anointed the Son, and the Son anointed the apostles, and the apostles anointed us. He who has been anointed possesses everything. He possesses the resurrection, the light, the cross, the Holy Spirit. The Father gave him this in the bridal chamber; he merely accepted (the gift). The Father was in the Son and the Son in the Father. This is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Philip
Truth did not come into the world naked, but it came in types and images. The world will not receive truth in any other way. There is a rebirth and an image of rebirth. It is certainly necessary to be born again through the image. Which one? Resurrection. The image must rise again through the image. The bridal chamber and the image must enter through the image into the truth: this is the restoration.
Not only must those who produce the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, do so, but have produced them for you. If one does not acquire them, the name ("Christian") will also be taken from him. But one receives the unction of the [...] of the power of the cross. This power the apostles called "the right and the left." For this person is no longer a Christian but a Christ.
"Even if you had certain talents in a previous incarnation, they will not reveal themselves in this incarnation if you do not exercise them. Sometimes someone discovers late on in life that they have an aptitude for a certain activity which they had not suspected. They are totally astonished and regret not having discovered it earlier. It is therefore important from a very early age to experience a wide variety of activities.
If you find you are no good at something, you can give it up, but at least you will not have to live with the regret of not having tried. If you are so inclined, it is always good to venture into something for which you have no particular aptitude, but if you are not succeeding at it, do not labour away stubbornly.
It is better to exercise the talents you already have than to waste your efforts on those you do not have and always to fail. You have to know where to invest your energies. Therefore, perfect the qualities and talents you already have, and if after that you still have time left, try to awaken in you others that you lack."
