    Name of Jesus

    In my view... Jesus is the living Pentagrammaton. If we take IHVH (Jehova) and place Shin in the middle, we get IHSVH, Yeshua, which was translated into Jesus because it has Five Letters, representing the Five Pointed Star. Shin is the 21st Arcanum, and adding upon itself produces 3. Three...

    Sensual Snapshots

    There are more degrees of enlightenment than the grains of sand on a beach, but at some point the knowledge of objective quantity will be reached. It is not the peak of enlightenment, but if one says they are enlightened, then it should be at least to a degree that is beyond any normal human...

    Sensual Snapshots

    I agree that any reading with out practical application is useless. The theory vs. direct expereince is a tightrope that is difficult to walk on. For example, science says that we have hard-wired responses to stimuli, so something like getting angry at someone is beyond control. Many people use...

    Homosexuality and Religion

    Yes, of course I have, in the past. Society had always told me it was a good and healthy thing to do. However, this incorrect, especially for the man, and especially for any child prior to puberty. We should investigate the phallic peristaltic movements after masturbation. I'd rather have semen...

    Homosexuality and Religion

    Hello everyone, This is a long post but maybe some will read it. Jesus is quoted in Mark 19 about marriage. Specificly verse 12 is very enlightening about who can marry. Homosexual partnership cannot have anything to do with matrimony of God because the Holy Matrimony is the bond between...

    Sensual Snapshots

    It is incongruent to examine bioelectrical/chemical causality for investigations of the self. I have noticed it many times in different places, it is making wonder if spiritual people really think the brain plays a significant role in the self. The bioelectrical causality (what physical brain...

    The Key to Revelation 7:4

    Brian, The Fool as the Zero Card, in my opinion, in an adulteration. Not all Tarot decks agree, as many people think believe they know how to make it better (Crowely, and many New Age sects). The Egipcios Kier Deck is nearly flawless, however, in my opinion. It has 21 and 22 mixed up. 21 is...

    The Key to Revelation 7:4

    In the Kabbalah, zeros are meaningless numbers (as far as I know anyway). The 22 characters in the Hebrew alphabet corresponds directly with the 22 Major Arcana of Tarot. There is no Arcane Zero or Zero Card and no character related to Zero. If one wishes to reduce 144 or 1440 or 144000...

    Age of Aquarius

    The Golden Age occurs because it comes after everyone but the cream of the crop is wiped out. From there the other three "seasons" occur due to the convolutions and degeneration of the original religion. It is absolutely realistic to think that society is moving backwards. We like to call it...

    The Key to Revelation 7:4

    Sorry to dissapoint. :) Revelation is written for a Kabbalahist, which is ironic because the Christians threw out that stuff and Jews don't care about Revelation. I picked this verse because an entire sect of Christianity is based off the fact that "144,000" will be saved, however they...

    The Key to Revelation 7:4

    Adam is ADM, or Aleph Daleth Mem. Aleph has the Kabbalistic value = 1 Daleth has the Kabbalistic value = 4 Mem has the Kabbalistic value = 40 So, 144 (or 144,000) is the number of Adam. Adam is symbolic, it is in reference...

    Reincarnation

    This is slightly off topic, for it is a Hindu viewpoint. But that is where Buddhism came from, so I hope I do not butt in to much here... I would like to add two cents.. Reincarnation is for those who have incarnated. If we look it up we find that "incarnated" has to do with "bringing...

    Esoteric Christianity

    Esoteric Christianity has been around since the beginning of time. Alchemy is the secret of Esoteric Christianity: Al (God) Khem (Egypt). This is the science of Egypt. "Historical" Alchemy as an esoteric form sprung up out of the repression of the Roman Empire and within it all the secrets of...

    Enlightenment and Suffering

    To me, and I am just realizing this now, dukkha is one with the temporal phenomenon. Things can be good, but all will pass. Things can be bad, but all will pass. So I see dukkha not so much as a pessimistic "glass half empty" thing, and obviously not the optimistic "half full", but rather, the...

    Enlightenment and Suffering

    I must say that the vast amount of my misery ended when I begain to reconize it was there (the cause-effect relationships). I like the term dissatisfactoryness, but, maybe "non-happiness" is better. I see your point, but to me, the one who is not happy because of boredom, depression, stress...

    Enlightenment and Suffering

    The Buddha said that life itself is "suffering." It is better though if we say it is "dukha," meaning more exactly dissatisfactoryness. Di satisfaction of the current state, the desire to avert from this current state and crave something new, is the temporal phenomenon. For example, when...

    Sum up your religious belief

    It is my belief that our perspective must be the truth, and nothing but the truth, which has nothing to do with good or bad intentions.

    matter and energy

    Hello, Well, honestly I cannot affirm nor deny what you have said. However, from what I understand we are not to think of this relationship so concretely, it is more abstract. It is the archetypicals. For example, every level of creation can be said to have Twelve aspects -- the Zodiac. It is...

    Hello

    Hello, Well, the reality is I have little input about the book, and the little I do have, has been harsh to put it nicely. Of course that was months ago and although the book is now far superior than it was then (most of it has been rewritten and competely restructured) it is still quite...
