Gnomen 101-Yeshua had sworn not to use the
secret before others, lest he die before his time in the hands of Heaven.
You must know that there are just reasons for the
prohibition to use any secret of the Kabbalah Maasit. And one must understand
why the punishment is so severe as to promise an untimely death to that person
who uses the secret before others.
A Jew who studies Torah or who teaches Torah may
not do something that will cause him to be honoured by others. It is prohibited
for a true sage of the Torah to desire honour for himself, and if he desires to
be honoured he is not a true sage.
And if a Jew who has received a secret of the
Kabbalah Maasit with which he is able to perform wonders outside of nature,
uses that secret before others, he will most certainly receive great honour
from the masses.
For this reason the sages explain that whosoever
does such, it is as if he has stolen a garment of the Holy One, Blessed is He.
GNOMEN 102
The reason for this is that the 'Honour' (Kavod)
that people give to God, Blessed is He, is made possible by way of His 'glory'
(Kavod), Blessed is His name forever, that He showed to His nation, as well as
through miracles that He does with every person whose heart is pure in its
faith in Him.
Therefore His glory is compared to a garment by
which He is able, so to speak, to reveal Himself to people.
And thus he who fears God will be afraid to use
the garment of the Holy One, Blessed is He, by taking honour for himself.
This is what is meant by the saying of the Sages 'whoever
uses the Crown will pass away'.
And for this reason it is forbidden for a teacher
of the Torah to give over a secret to his pupil without binding him to the
harshest of oaths.
GNOMEN 103
Unfortunately, it cannot be denied that in all
traditional Christianity, the garment of the Holy One, Blessed is He, was
stolen from its only true owner and was placed on the poor first messianic Donkey
of Bethlehem.
Also the Sages of the Torah and the Pharisees had
a basis for not trusting in signs and miracles made by men, and for not
trusting men who performed miracles.
Such secrets in any case must never exit in public
because it is prohibited to manifest before people that which is outside of
nature. Without an adequate and extensive preparation in understanding the
secret, the brain of a normal person is not able to support that new reality
imposed by the secret.
(((in Italian the Gnomen have been further
divided; until here it was up to gnomen 113 - thus the gnomen above have either
to be re-divided or gnomen added - I continue from gnomen 114)))
GNOMEN 114
This can only have negative consequences for the
mind, creating a detachment from reality. A disciple needs a long preparation
from his teacher who knows the secret, in order not to get confused.
To understand better, imagine yourself close to
Jesus in the moment when he multiplied the bread. Don't think about it too much
though; such a vision transports the brain away from the balance to which it is
used.
GNOMEN 115
This doesn't do good to the brain because it
amazes but the amazement has no resolution on earth. The thought is stunned by
the wonder but it cannot 'bind' that wonder to the reality of the world. In the
end it disappears and does not satisfy. The body needs bread of the earth and
the spirit needs the bread of comprehension. It is true, nevertheless, that
through the secret of the Kabbalah Maasit, used by Yeshua, the bread that was
multiplied was 'material' bread.
GNOMEN 116
Those present touched it and ate it with pleasure,
and it may be presumed that they were satiated by that extraordinary bread.
Do you remember those children of the rocks
created by the Baptist's words. Let us assume for the moment that those
children were actually born from the rocks. Could they have a human form? Let's
say yes.
GNOMEN 117
Could one touch them? Let's say yes. Would they be
able to procreate? Certainly not!
GNOMEN 118
They would have not the roots in nature to
procreate, not deriving from human beings but from rocks which have no roots in
human procreation.
Now transport this thought to Yeshua's bread. That
bread was created at the moment by way of a 'hidden name'. There were no
residual elements for which the body would have to separate the nutrients and
discharge the rest.
GNOMEN 119
Could a person live on that bread alone? How would
the organs of his body function!?
That bread was material bread, but without the
roots of the natural bread of the world. It is a bread generated by the rocks.
GNOMEN 120
It has no roots in nature because it was created
by the letters of that secret.
It is true that the sons of Jacob, our father,
nourished themselves for some time during the famine with the secret of the
Kabbalah Maasit which they had received from their father.
One must remember, however, that Jacob's children
were all just men, blessed in the blessing and in the sanctity of Jacob. In
that moment famine plagued the country and there was nothing to eat.
GNOMEN 121
There was thus a definite reason for them to use
the secret. It was, however, prohibited for them to make it known to others or
to use it before others or to let it be known that they possessed the secret.
For this reason, Jacob, our father, reproached his
sons, 'Why do you show yourselves healthy and satisfied before the people of
the land, without being afraid of jealousy. It is better that you go down to Egypt
to buy grain so that all will see that you are equal to them.* *
see Rashi on 'lama titra'u'-- Genesis is 42-1
(at least in Hebrew text). lama titra'u
- titra'u is reflexive of li'rot 'to see' (le-hitraot is used in Hebrew,
also modern, for au revoir or aufviderzein – lit. to see each other) which
presents a difficulty in translation and meaning here. It means on a simple
level 'why do you continue to stand there looking at one another'. This has
meaning but it's not clear why Jacob, our father, had to say it in such a way.
Rashi says that Jacob warned them not to show themselves before the Ishmaelites
and the children of Esau as being 'satisfied' since they still had food left
whereas the other's didn't.
The Tzadik Haim explained to me that the real
reason for their being satisfied was that they had been using Kabbalah Maasit
which they received from Jacob, our father, to create the food they wanted.
Jacob said to them 'lama titra'u - all the others are hungry and are out
looking for food but you continue to show yourselves satisfied and you don't go
looking for food. It's better for you to go to Egypt and
follow a natural course as everyone else, otherwise you will be an object of
jealousy and evil-eye. - -
GNOMEN 122
The manna, on the other hand, eaten
for forty years in the desert by the people of Israel, was renewed every day by
God, Blessed is He, and sent into the world by way of the stars. Its
nourishment was for that day and not for another. Only on the sixth day of
every week, two portions of Manna were to be found, but on the seventh day no
manna descended, and a great blessing enhanced the tents of the Israelites. In
this way the Holy One Blessed is His name forever, taught Israel
its Shabbat and He showed them how to prepare the food of the Sabbath on the
sixth day.
GNOMEN 123
Who has ever seen the closeness of God as the
people of Israel. Not for forty days did the manna fall but for forty years!
The manna descended from high above the stars and
by way of the stars it materialised upon the earth and it became one substance
with nature so as to be a true benefit to the Israelites in every sense. Even
the taste of the manna, as explained in tradition, was exactly as each person
desired. It took on the taste of whatever food was desired to be eaten.
GNOMEN 124
The miracles of God are perfect in every way and
they contain no negative aspect.
The manna, by the word of God, became natural,
while at the same time it retained its spiritual nourishment. It was a
spiritual food become natural.
The bread multiplied by Yeshua in that opening
messianic mission was a new creation superimposed upon the natural
world.
GNOMEN 125
Its entire essence was outside of nature; the
natural world, however, must contain it for the moment, when it is created upon
it. The name of God is above nature and all the forces of nature are 'afraid'
before the secret of the Kabbalah Maasit.
With it Jesus quieted the winds that would have
wrecked the boat. Also the winds are forced to stop in their paths before the
name of God pronounced in the secret of the Kabbalah Maasit.
With it Yeshua cast out spirits and demons and
with it he healed people of every illness.
The fact that Yeshua used this secret to perform
all the miracles described in the Gospels, does not diminish the power of that
secret or the value of what was done. It does, however, diminish or
re-dimension the exaggerated emphasis placed by traditional Christianity on
those miracles. The very fact that he was not the only one who possessed that
secret and that he himself 'received' it from a teacher, radically
changes the traditional prospective.
GNOMEN 126
It is no longer the power of Jesus who performed
the miracles but the power of the secret with which he performed them.
If, nevertheless, this aspect of the power of the
first messiah becomes re-dimensioned, this is recompensed by the greater
importance, by consequence, to the value attributed to the 'messianic sign'
associated to the 'sign' of each miracle.
For example, in the two cases of 'resuscitation'
from death, that of the Prophet Elijah , of blessed mentioning, and that of
Elisha who received from him, the force of this revelation in the Book of Kings
lies in the power itself and the 'sanctity' of such 'hidden powers'. In the
traditional mentality, however, these miracles were never associated to a
Messianic Sign, except, perhaps, indirectly.
GNOMEN 127
The resuscitation of Lazarus, on the other hand,
being associated with the Messianic Sign of the Resurrection of the dead,
maintains it messianic value.
In traditional Christianity, the miracles of Jesus
are associated to his messianic mission. The miraculous action, therefore, is
never judged only for the miracle itself but for the messianic purpose or
messianic reason or messianic sign to which the miracle is associated.
The resuscitation of Lazarus, for example, had the
value of a Messianic Sign indicating the arrival of a very important sign from
the Kingdom of Heaven, that of the Resurrection of the dead, a sign bound up
with the Promised Redemption of mankind.
Indeed, the Sign of Yeshua's Resurrection after
his death would have been lacking in completeness if not for his preceding act
of reawakening Lazarus from the dead.
GNOMEN 128
Now it can be better understood in virtue of the
Completed Sign of the Tzadik, Haim, Resurrected.
The Resurrection of Yeshua was of the Initial
Signs. The Resurrection of the Tzadik Haim is the Final and Completed Sign of
the Resurrection of the dead.
The sign of the resuscitation of Lazarus, is more
in correspondence with the Sign of the New Spirit of the Final Redemption that
wakes people up from their spiritual death. Also the Donkey of the New Pact
spiritually dies and is resuscitated many times, to the point where he must
say, "I was dead but I have been resurrected in merit of the Tzadik
Resurrected, Haim.
Also the multiplication of the bread had a
messianic value: the messianic bread furnished by Yeshua in his discourses,
would be multiplied and given to eat to a multitude of persons.
Thus the miracle was a Messianic Sign, that is a
Sign which had a real messianic value.
GNOMEN 129
We do not say a symbolic value, because this term
is passive, unallocated to any action; at most it is a memory that may be renewed
for stimulating action, but it is never the symbol that acts directly on
something or someone.
But when we speak of a Messianic Sign, its meaning
is extremely active. A Messianic Sign creates after itself an historical
realisation. The bread multiplied by Jesus truly multiplied the Christian Bread
throughout Christian history.
GNOMEN 130
It was not simply a 'sign' with symbolic meaning,
but a 'messianic sign', a sign bound up with the diffusion of Christianity in
the world.
The Messianic Sign acts in and upon history
because it is bound up with a Messianic-Time; this means that the time in which
the Sign is made corresponds with the time of appearance of the
Messianic-Stars; when the sign made is engaged to the Messianic Time-Cycle of
that particular period, it is these stars that carry along the messages
historically.
In the New Message we use the term Time-Key of
history in order to describe this particular Stellar-Time of the Redemption. In
a Messianic-Time-Key all that which happens around the Messianic Mission,
is 'written in the stars' and carried along historically as messianic
sign-posts.*
*a common amazement among scholars and laymen
alike is how the very short mission of Yeshua, the relatively small quantify of
information in the Gospels, as well as the scarcity of descriptive evaluations
etc. became so historically potent. In truth it depends on the stars of the
Messianic-Time-Key as explained here
Each
sign-post bears its historical weight. All this is until the next
Messianic-Time-Key comes into its 'new' position.
GNOMEN 131
In the Completed Signs, the 'Second Coming' of the
Star of Christ represents the aperture of a New Messianic Time-Key for the
Christian Nations, after 2000 years from the Initial Christian Signs.
This explains how the signs made by Yeshua in that
mission, until the concluding sign of his resurrection, were written in the
Redemptional Stars of that epoch and carried historically by Christianity for
the past twenty centuries.
The name Star of Christ came out of the particular
stellar-formation verified for that epoch, as to be explained.
GNOMEN 132
To understand the particular position of the Star
of Christ, however, one must study some of the messianic allusions of the Holy
Torah found in the story of the meeting between Abraham and Malchitzedek.
The hidden waters reveal that the Star of Abraham
and the Star of Malchitzedek meet in 'Emek Shaveh, the Valley of the Perfect
Equilibrium of the Final Redemption. These are the hidden waters and the rest
is explanation.
GNOMEN 133
With the arrival of the Completed Signs of the
Final Redemption, the Tzadik Haim, in the Sign of the Stars, reveals the Hidden
Waters of the Star of Christ.
The Sign of the Stars opens as the Sign of the
Book of the Stars. The Book of the Stars is the heredity of Abraham, our
father. As the Book of the Stars opens, we find the names of a multitude of
nations. This demonstrates that the Book of the Stars belongs to Abraham, the
chosen father of a multitude of nations. In the first half of this Sign we also
have the Four Stars, three in a row and one displaced. These correspond, aside
from the correspondence to the Fourth Generation, to the Four Thousand Year
Cycle of the Star of Abraham.
GNOMEN 134
This First Sign is thus the Sign of Abraham, the Sign
that conjoins 4000 years of history from the birth of Abraham, our father. As
the First Sign in the name of Abraham, it establishes the Faith of Abraham, the
pure monotheistic faith in EL SHADDAI, as the only true faith.
The Four Stars represent four generations. Since
the Fourth Star indicates the Displaced Fourth Generation, clearly the first
three Stars represent the three preceding stellar-generations.
The Four Stars are thus four time-cycles, four
periods that complete the Great Redemptional Time-Cycle of the Star of Abraham.
GNOMEN 135
Thus was it said in the Promise to Abraham, in the
Pact of the Redemption (brit bein ha-betarim - Pact Between the Pieces) 'and
the fourth generation will return hither, because the sin of the Emorites will
not be complete until then'.
This means that the Emorei (or the enemies of Israel)
come to the completion of their sin during the fourth generation, reason for
which they are destroyed. At that time Israel
returns to its heredity to enjoy the benefits of the redemption.
The sin of the fourth generation is likewise bound
to the 'hated fourth generation' alluded to in the second commandment. This is
the generation hated by God Almighty because of the idolatry that it contains.
GNOMEN 136
Also in this the Fourth Displaced Star is bound to
the 4000 year course of the Star of Abraham. The Star of Abraham, which is the
first of the four stars, when it 'reaches' the 'fourth star' carries with it
the pure monotheistic faith to a multitude of nations. The Fourth Generation is
therefore the generation of the Wars of God against the false idolatrous
doctrines and against the idolatrous practices of this 'displaced' epoch.
The 'displacement' of the Fourth Star also
indicates the prophetic decree 'behold the Lord is going out of His place' etc.
The Fourth Displaced Star 'exits' from its 'normal' position, creating
disasters (interestingly the word 'disaster' from the
Greek literally means 'a star off course')
and calamities, God save us.
Yet the Fourth Displaced Star is also 'removed'
from the other generations in its outstanding 'illumination'. The illumination
has its truth, but one must at the same time not be fooled by this great light
because all proceeds in upward direction and the illumination augments, but
only until a certain point. Then with abrupt swiftness all the lights are
suddenly extinguished and a tremendous darkness covers the face of the earth. (see
report on the Sign of the Teacher from the Fourth Star to the First Star,
realised in Calabria in 1989)
GNOMEN 137
The four stars verify the cycle of the Star of
Abraham, a cycle known from the oral tradition as well. The astrologers of the
court of Nimrod saw this star when Abraham was born, in Ur Caldei (or Ur Casdim). The
marvellous star 'born' with Abraham, our father, made a complete turn in the
four corners of the heavens, 'consuming' at every corner one star; this means
that at every corner of the four directions of heaven, the star of Abraham, in
its course, extinguished the principle star of that direction.
Nimrod's astrologers understood that the person
born under that star would eventually 'conquer' the world, swallowing up the
'four kingdoms' of the earth.
GNOMEN 138
Obviously those astrologers could not know the
larger global context of that star in its historical development of 4000 years.
Reassuming: The Book of the Stars is the Book of
Abraham. It is the Book of the Final Redemption of a multitude of nations at
the time of the concluding period of that 4000 year cycle. The Redemption that
is born of the Star of Abraham comes together with the Sign of the Fourth
Displaced Generation. The Fourth Generation (precisely a double-period of 35
years and 30 years respectively) of 65 years ( from April 1983 until April
2048) represents the closing period of that 4000 year cycle.
GNOMEN 139
This period is also called the Prophetic Period.
Sometimes it is refereed to as the period of the Last Days or the Last Days of
Judgement. It is the same period, with all the double-sign indications that
characterise it, that the Sages of the Talmud generally refer to as the
'Messianic Days' albeit their interpretations vary greatly and are replete with
contradictory ideas about its length and
substance.
The prophesied 'Day of the Lord, great and
terrible', comes during this period of the Displaced Fourth Generation.
It must be estimated, for reason of certain
prophecies, that there is the 'terrible' possibility, although we hope that it
be greatly lessened, that only one third of the world will be left for the
redemptional periods after the Fourth Generation. Two thirds will be destroyed.
On another page of the Book of the Stars, the Star
of Christ shines brilliantly. The Tzadik Haim explains, "This is the Star
of Christ which comes in virtue of humility".
GNOMEN 140
For this reason, if you desire to understand the
Book which Astounds, you must conduct all your actions with great humility, not
only before God, but especially with all people.
You must be humble even in your thoughts. Do not
mount your heads because of that which you believe to be comprehension.
Convince yourselves always that you have understood nothing compared to the
true comprehension.
GNOMEN 141
Strip yourself of preconceptions. Rid yourself of
false theologies. They will all fall in virtue of the truth you will learn in
Sefer Ha-Mafli. All is resolved in the Book of Ester which began at the School
of the Essenes.
Conduct yourself with modesty, in your dressing,
in your speaking, in your looking and in all your actions.
GNOMEN 142
Remember that the mirror is an enemy which must be
supported for the utility that derives from it; but don't turn it into a
friend, because it always fools those who look it in the eyes.
Do honour to the food that you eat, and avoid
eating on your feet.
The honour of the table is in modest dress and in
speaking of elevated subjects.
The honour of food is in chewing well and in the
slowness with which one eats and in the taste perceived.
GNOMEN 143
Bless your food before you eat and after you eat.
For aside from the blessing of nature, there is needed the Blessing of the
Creator, Blessed is He, in order to complete the food's benefit in every sense.
Receive every person with a pleasant countenance,
with humbleness of stature, with gentleness, and with a pleasing smile as one spontaneously
receives a friend.
Love every person because he or she is a creation
of God, and every creation of God possesses hidden virtues loved by the
Creator.
Do not look at people's crusts. Seek instead the
hidden jewels beneath the crust, and help a friend to see the hidden good that
he possesses.
GNOMEN 144
Have great fear of your own tongue, for it ruins
those who do not guard it. Hold it in custody night and day with maximum
control.
Youth learn to speak. Adults learn to be quiet. A
wise person knows how to speak and to keep quiet at the same time.
GNOMEN 145
Sanctify your thoughts through study with worthy
teachers, and do not allow your thought to rise above the thought of your
teacher. Otherwise you will not be able to receive from him.
If you doubt some word of your teacher, have the
fault fall on your lacking comprehension of his intentions. Then, perhaps, you
will find the answer by yourself and you will not have to expose your doubt to
your teacher.
If, however, the doubt persists, do not speak of
it to anyone outside of the teacher himself. Do not say, "I have a doubt
concerning that which the teacher said" but rather, "There is a word
of the teacher that I have not yet been able to understand".
GNOMEN 146
If you are fortunate enough to have a true
teacher, walk behind him with a lowered head and with great humility, if he
allows you to do such. This privilege will help you receive something of the
teacher's humility.
GNOMEN 147
The Hidden Tzadik, Haim, took upon himself the
Final Sacrifice. He has been selected by God Almighty to preside on the Throne
of the New Kingdom of Heaven.
The Tzadik Haim represents the Jacob of History,
the Final Goel, for all Israel and for all humanity.
GNOMEN 148 -
Yeshua of Nazareth
was 'chosen'* from his birth to carry the Signs of Christ**the Initial
Redemptional and Messianic Signs. Dark were the times and hidden the ways of
that necessarily tragic mission, that strange preparatory messianic sacrifice
which had to be in the world for very essential purposes of the Great
Historical Redemption of mankind.
* even though
Yeshua received the Signs much later, at the School , his birth, his development, his character
etc. were Providential and led him to the School and to his calling.
**we may say the Signs of Christ, although the
Signs of the Universal Messianism properly associated with the term 'Christ'
came later, after the complete Jewish refusal and Paul's mission as Messenger
to the Gentiles
GNOMEN 149
The Star of Christ spoke in the mouth of
Yeshua, after he received the Signs from
the School, and even more so after he left the School and took on his mission. You will find it
underneath*the New Testament** every time Jesus speaks in the first person
singular.
* this is a key of the Christian Correction which itself undoes the
deification; a star is not a man.
**from
Jesus' words the purposes of the Messianic Star can be understood, such as 'I
have not come except for saving the lost sheep of the house of Israel', 'I have
not come to deny the Law or Prophets' , 'Do not think that I am come to bring
peace' etc
GNOMEN 150
That Star came to establish a long preparatory
historical period needed for the salvation of the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel.
Therefore Jesus said, "I have not come except for saving the lost sheep of
the house of Israel".
That Star came to establish the first phase of a
new illumination for the world. Therefore Jesus said, "I am the light of
the world" etc.
That Star came to re-establish the relationship of
God, the Father, to Israel His children. Therefore Jesus was in the Sign of His son, to re-teach
the Torah's teaching, 'You are children to the Lord, your God'.
