Should
we start a journey or trip, let´s have the sun of Consciousness
behind and shadows ahead, lest these become illusory enemies.
There
are many paths, but only one Way–says
an old adage.
Which
Way underlies all paths?
There
was a time when humanity knew a Universal Teaching, still able to
perceive invisible spheres of the earth.
But
with the course of cosmic seasons and human immaturity, the Teaching
broke into thousands of pieces and humans became nothing more than
hominoids, aspiring to be mature humans.
Messengers
and prophets were sent to bring humanity back to reality, but it was
not entirely possible. The time had not yet come.
Hence
came the confusing collage now known as "religions" which
hardly re-ligate humans to their divine origin. Otherwise, there
would be no wars nor conflicts because of religion.
Judaism,
Brahmanism, Buddhism, Christianity and Islam have become shadowed
fragments of a Truth that can only be lived in the divine spark that
corresponds to each one, breaking all illusory molds, all beliefs and
mental cages in the world, better when guided by the Teaching that
encompasses all teachings.
Everyone
has some truth, yet no one has all the Truth.
The only time in history Judaism, Christianity and Islam came together was in the Middle Ages, under the leadership of Spanish students of the Wisdom contained in the Scripture.
Unfortunately, it was dangerous to pursue the Truth in those days and many were persecuted and expelled, like the Sephardic jews.
But now the time is reap to go back to the roots, which can even be known in a more complete form.

But now the time is reap to go back to the roots, which can even be known in a more complete form.
We
saw how the Ebionites of Qumran called themselves those
who prepare The Way.
Now, that Way is precisely what was clarified by he who said:
I
am the Way, the Truth and the Life, and no one comes to the Father
but by me -John 14: 6
Yet
he never wanted to establish another religion and be worshiped as a
god. There were already enough gods. Adding a new one would´ve been
insane.
What
did he mean then? That is the crucial task these days of complete
madness.
The
testimony of Jesus has been hijacked by many conflictive
views which exclude not only the truth in other religions, but also
the Teaching of the Gospels.
The simple and plain truth implied by the Gospels is that by fulfilling all commandments Jesus became fully Human, and thus, divine, since a full Human is manifestation of the Son of the Eternal Father.

Such level of being can only incarnate completely in a fully developed human that can already access the Light of Spirit at will, having fullness of body, purified soul and spirit-will.
But it is still a process which is usually interrupted due to human underdevelopment, reason why humans barely manage to incarnate a baby soul and remain embryo souls without the Mind of Christ-Massiah.
With an impeccable life, Jesus became the human vessel for the full Spirit, playing the role of Anointed/Massiah, which was hinted at Deuteronomy 18:15.
Thus, He led the Way to restore the fragmented Soul of Adam, known as Son of Man since Daniel, and to which all human souls belong to.

Yahshua
was the example of how the living Word of the Father manifests itself
as Light and Life in Man, proclaiming the Name I
am within
the human heart (Exodus 3:14), acknowledging itself as Son by claiming Abba (Luke 17, Galatians 4:6).
Yet, it is only One Lord who does all this.
Yet, it is only One Lord who does all this.
Is
it not said the beginning was the Word-Vibration and that the Word
became flesh?
Unfortunately, instead of following the Way, many worship those who follow the Way.

The
emphasis on the Teaching was always to bring lost humanity out of
idolatry, which is not simply worshiping statues and gods; idolatry
is to believe that there are many wills, independent forces and
enemies; that Good and Evil are separate; that Truth is
opposed to falsehood; that my religion, tribe or nation is better
than the other´s; that God does not exist, or does exist outside, in
some heights; that the body and its impulses are bad or good...
All
conflicts are rooted on thinking and believing in two, ignoring there
is a third unseen force called Love that reconciles all conflict.
There
is only One Will, One Beloved and Loving Essence, of which we can
only perceive energy attributes and existential functions.
The Teaching summarizes the main ones: Father Will; Mother Light-Matter;
the living Word of the loving Son and
prisoner-rescued Daughter or human soul.
The
great idolatric mistake of religions is to worship the fruits or energies of the Beloved and not the Beloved itself, as suggested in a medieval mystic treatise called the Cloud of Unknowing.
Temples
and altars are built everywhere in the name of the "manifestations"
of the Unique One, which includes everything and
does not leave out the possibility of self-limitation,
self-sacrifice, letting Dark Nothingness be.
The
Instruction of the spiritual Torah comes to teach that the most sacred
temple of such a Sublime Being, is the human body, made to sacrifice
all animality.
Why
is it so difficult to understand? Because humans are not yet fully
human. If humans were fully human, they would be divine, image of the
Whole.
All
which is in accord to its essence is somehow divine, perfect, even a
pine tree or a dog.
Thus,
even those who hate the divine and religion are idolaters, since
conflictive politics, destructive science, sport fanatism and other
cultish hobbies are full of idols. These are other types of
religions.
Divide
and conquer
is the satanic dictum par excellence.
A
very misleading slogan, for the truth is rather: divide
and you will sink up to the bottom in your own shit.
It´d
be better to say: discern
and you shall find the Truth, conquering the pain that brings you
suffering.
When
people thought that Jesus/Yahshua healed the sick and cast out demons
by the power of Beelzebub, he taught an unforgettable lesson:
knowing
their thoughts, he said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself
is brought to desolation; and a house divided against itself
falls-Luke 11:17
Was
Yahshua against Satan and not divided against himself? How is that?
The
religions influenced by Rome and Babylone state: "Of course,
Jesus and Jehova were enemies of Satan, which is a very bad dude and
had to be subdued"
Well...
it seems he was not subdued, for someone is still making mischief by
means of remote control from some infernal cage.
What´s
Satan then?
The
problem of idolatry is to grant power to
what does not have any.
In
the Hebrew teaching the Supreme has no enemies, not even the so
called Satan or Evil One. Divine Good versus Evil is a childish
belief introduced in Babylon in sixth century BC; a misinterpretation
of the ideas brought by a famous prophet, Zoroaster.
Judaism
simply absorbed such a misinterpretation when it was made captive by
the Babylonian Empire.
Before
that century, the Hebrew expression ha
Satan simply meant
adversary. It first appears in 1 Samuel 29:4, with the sense of
adversary person.
Sometimes
the expression ha
Satan
appears, yet the particle ha indicates
function, not personality. There is no such thing as The Satan;
although it sometimes refers to residual intelligent energies that
suck light when body, soul and spirit are not harmonized.
Satan can also refer to the race of fire-energy (i.e Iblis in the Koran) that was expelled from his
heavenly throne when he refused to bow down to the new creation and future humanity, as told in several ancient sources. Iblis was
condemned to live as Jinns on an earthly invisivle dimension as an accuser and tempting factor for those who are not stable in the inner path.
According to Henry Corbin´s studies of Islamic mysticism, Adam acquired a biased nature when he incarnated too soon on earth, deceived by Iblis, who suggested the idea.
Such acquired distorted nature would be the seed of the serpent that must be erased by the seed of the woman/holy spirit within each human being.
Such acquired distorted nature would be the seed of the serpent that must be erased by the seed of the woman/holy spirit within each human being.
The Teaching of the Way shows that any of the forms of manifestation of Satan, play an objective role in the process of evolution, otherwise it would´ve never been allowed into the game.
These are the requirements of a creation with free will.
This is clearly seen in the Book of Job, where the Lord asks Satan to tempt Job in order test him. Why was Job tempted, being so fair and good? What was the point of causing despair by means of rashes, murders, huracanes...?

The
Teaching has nothing to do with being good. The Way is to go beyond division. Only then can one love the
Divine One and find out its Love has no limits.
This
is something that the Yahwist prophets (Jeremiyah, Isaiyah,
Eliyah...) had in mind when proclaiming the Ancient Way, instead of
the killer pagan Judaism that had been generated:
I
am the Lord (YHWH, Yahawah), and there is none else, there is no God
besides me: I girded you, though you have not known me:
That
they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that
there is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.
I form the light, and create darkness:
I make peace, and create calamity: I the LORD do all these
things–Isaiyah 45: 6-7
Today
this still generates confusion, to the point that many have begun to
fashion the idea that the Old Testament is the work of an evil God,
as the Gnostic Marcion held back in the II century.
The
Mormon people go as far as saying that Jesus is the brother of Satan,
since in the Book of Revelation, the Lord says: I
am...the bright morning star
(main symbol of Lucifer)
Hence
some come to believe the New Testament is a new evil deception about
Good vs Evil.
But
sacred texts are to awaken a higher understanding, human
understanding. They were never meant for hominoid minds.
The
fallen light dwelled in Jesus as much as in modern man. The
difference is that the former transcended it and the latter doesn't.
Satanic
is the sick mind that devours itself, seeing enemies apart from the own "selfishness".
Oneself
is the enemy of oneself,
Krishna tells Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita.
Therefore,
the only thing that should worry us is fear and division. The
offenders, sorrows and misfortunes can be allies when used to reveal
hidden weakness.
A
truth that the same Yahshua taught in subtle ways:
Since
then Yahshua has Massiah [Jesus Christ] began to show his disciples
that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders
and chief priests and scribes, and be killed ... Taking Jesus aside
Peter rebuked him: "God forbid, Lord That'll never happen!".
But He turned and said to Peter, "Get
behind Me, Satan!
You
are a stumbling block,
because you're not thinking about the things of God, but the things
of men-Matthew 16: 21-23
In
the Gospel allegory Yahshua is tempted by Satan in the wilderness.
What does he say when the Devil offers all the kingdoms to
him in exchange for idolatry?:
Only
the Lord (All Being) you shall worship and him alone you shall serve
-Matthew 4:10
It
is the fulfillment of the first commandment given to Moses. And it is
interesting to see how Jesus himself recites the Shemá prayer and
the first commandment as described in Deuteronomy 6:4-6,
answering the Pharisees. He was making clear how to fulfill
all commandments at once:
Listen
Ysrael [spiritual humanity], The Lord our Elohim [divine functions]
is one Lord [YHWH, All Being]. Thou shall love the Lord [YHWH, All
Being] thy God with all your heart
and with all thy soul,
and with all thy strength,
and with all thy mind;
and your neighbor as yourself -Luke 10:27, Deuteronomy 6:4-6
As
we see, this was nothing new, but a Torah lesson, completed with the
passage Leviticus 19:18:
Thou
shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of your
people, but love your neighbor as yourself; I am the Lord.
Rabbi
Hillel echoed that teaching in the first century saying that it sums
up the Torah of Moses.
Unfortunately
many forgot their Hebrew roots, and then: goodbye neighbor.
How
is it possible that so many Judaisms, Christianities and Islamisms
are against each other when they come from the same tradition?
Very
simple: without the proper Instruction, the sick mind is unable to
understand the Scriptures and misinterprets everything, changing what
does not fit, throwing away the Key
of Knowledge
(Luke 11:52).
Interestingly,
Eastern religions are less violent and more inclusive, and thus in
some way closer to the Biblical teaching. Yet it does not mean they are
better or that one should become a Buddhist or Vedantist.
There
is the testimony of a Tibetan teacher who was taken as prisoner by
the Chinese communists, and he could stand and survive the brutal
tortures by seeing his attackers as teachers that helped him see his
weaknesses, his internal reactions, being thus able to manifest mercy
and compassion.
That,
my friends, is to dwell in the Way.
Obviously,
the Buddhist mentality is different because it denies the existence
of a Supreme Being with Will that creates and loves through man.
In
that sense it can be said that Buddhism is not complete and remains
orphan, as it focuses only on the impersonal side, the Mother, which
in Christianity is known as the Womb of Mary.
Most
interpretations of Buddhism have two blind spots:
1)The
belief that complete self-dissolution is necessary to overcome
the pride, desire and suffering. The depths of the
human being ask for understanding and dissolution of egoism, but
this is not a nirvanic extinction.
2)
To believe that one can make progress in the path of enlightenment
without a Universal Loving and Creative Will. Even Buddha
reached enlightenment by means of it. What was his "right
effort"?
The
first perfect humanity was made in the image and likeness of the Son,
the Word of the Supreme and therefore the thinking hominoids now
aspire to be no less.
There
are certain passages in the Buddhist scriptures that may be read in
that sense. Buddha taught that the enlightened man is he who has
overcome all ignorance after experiencing all. Yet it was not
his role to teach the Integral Truth. Others came for such a task.
Anyway,
it is undeniable that the path of self-knowledge taught by Buddha is shared by other versions of the Teachings of the Way shown by the prophets, since it is necessary
for the abandonment of the idols of the mind and the heart, leavng behind the idolatrous religions that claim to be true without
even understanding their roots.
Getting
bored, depressed or seeing enemies, means there is no self-knowledge and the Word of Life does not
come in, due to an excess of pride, self-centeredness.
As
it was said:
Thou
shalt not take the Lord's name in vain-Exodus 20: 7
And
Elohim said to Moses: I am who I am-Exodus 3:14
Only
One can love and cry I Am in the Heart. Nobody loves, but the One.
It
is not me who lives in me; it is Massiah-Christ who lives in me
says Paul in Galatians 2:20
we
have the mind of Massiah
added he in 1 Corinthians 2:16
Which
of course includes the Buddha Mind.
To
follow the Divine Will and Light that dwells within is to
watch, include and harmonize all conflicts, sacrificing all
animalistic reactions, choosing to be Full instead of empty.
How
to do that will be discussed soon. The Way has only just begun.
