The Zohar speaks of the Faithful Shepherd. We are given that this is Moses after another fashion. Unifying this concept of Faithful Shepherd and Moses with the corresponding ideas of Will and Israel as being his flock, and undifferentiated thouhgt brings us to an interesting parallel of enhancement for our movement upwards through the pathways of wisdom.

The Faithful Shepherd is analogous to Will. It is the function of the self awareness that it can and does direct the motion of the energy of focus within. This is a very important concept. The energy of the focus within. You do not gain mastery of this energy unless you are called upon to use this energy of focus. It is a wild stallion that must be bent to your understanding. Letting it run to and fro causes untold havoc as we all can attest to in those periods of our lives when all seemed to be lost.

A shepherd moves the flock along during the course of the day seeking grazing lands and looks after stray sheep that are distracted away from the herd. The sheep are our thoughts. The herd is the unity of our thinking, forming an energy matrix which translates itself into the idealized forms of our image making process.

What happens to a thought after we have initialized its energy? We can repeat this thought processing it into our memory. We can let this thought pass through without any feelings of attachment causing this thought to eventually dissipate. With our feeling nature we can ascribe a certain area of this thought to other similar areas of thought, making a unity of reference to provide a stable energy field. Several such stable energy fields all linked together form the basis for our certainty. Everywhere we look we see and feel the one of being. This one of being is our recognition that the whole of all of these thoughts has a common central theme. In our best recognition of this we choose the All Good as this central theme. In the same way reading through Torah there is a central them arond which revolves the thinking process. This central theme is God, and the thinking process is Israel with their many adventures, trials, triumphs and failures. Individuals become a rallying point for a thought that has acted as a catalyst in bringing together the rest of the people (thoughts) into a common unity. Great figures move the entire thinking process up a level as we see with Abraham, Issac and Jacob. Joseph represents another level as well. Moses as the giver of law represents the highest point reached which is as giver of law or Will allows Israel to move from slavery (undifferentiated thinking, no center, no upward movement in terms of free will) into freedom of expression. This freedom of expression is characterized and culminated by their entrance into the promised land.

The promised land is the manifestation of the thinking process fully actualized in form. It is Law or Will that directs this entire process. In the instances in Torah where there is Divine intervention, there occurs a recognition of the entire process from the Will to direct, the desire to receive, and the resultant action or manifestation which is the perfection both of the direction and the reception. The Will to direct or promote or enlighten our thinking is always there. It can however be siphoned off by our resistance to the acceptance of this kind of process within ourselves. When we try to ignore this process which operates to perfect our world, we actually make things worse for ourselves. We use the very thing which could totally free us to enslave us. We close our minds but what is really happening is that we are using this Will or Law to subvert our thinking. After enough painful experiences we learn enough to stop this and come around to recognition that we can use Will or Law to direct our lives in the perfect pattern of abundant living in every way imaginable.

In the last part of Deuteronomy, Moses warns and predicts that the people will go astray and go through all kinds of hardships. He reminds us to turn to God for our salvation. What he is telling us is that when we return to a recognition of the the Law-Will within us we can direct our lives accordingly. If we act from a reactive nature only, that is not recognizing this capacity we have within, then we will not be fulfilled and will suffer because of this. This reactive nature can be compared to the sheep in the field without the Faithful Shepherd. They wander here and there without any direction. It is a random existence and fraught with dangers. Therefore the admonishments that Moses offers and the blessings.

We are always to do the Will of the Creator and therefore establish thou the work of our hands upon the earth.
Those heartfelt desires you have and the wonderful purposes that are being revealed constantly to you are the infinite abundance of God. We listen. We are open to receiving our good. Through this opening we then are preparing the mold the this awareness to be formed, nurtured and brought into manifestation. We ourselves within our own being experience and accept the vision that we are given to be fruitful and multifply. We continue to accept the vision as it becomes more filled with light. Then we ourselves witness the fruition of the forms of our imagination taking place in this world.

The Faithful Shepherd exactly reproduces the Creator’s thought as the Will-Law of Creation. This Will-Law of Creation is our decision maker. Our ability to choose rightly everything good for the sowing of our thinking into the Will to Receive part of our making where everything comes to be configured into the forms of the worlds upon which we live and move and have our being. As the Emerald tablet begins: “All things are from One by the mediation of One, and All things have their birth from this One thing by Adaptation.

Seek expansion out of yourself. It is the only place it can come from. Each opening lets in more light until there is a distinct brightness around the aura of your thinking. I can make this happen completely because this is happening entirely inside of myself. Release the above and channel its flows into the forms of your imaging. Intention builds the mold. Projection fills the mold. Gratitude and love give the mold life and bring forth its manifestation.

When you seek for a thing it appears. It is in this seeking that there is an acceptance. Let go into this acceptance and receive the highest thoughts.

Spirit how come?

Posted in Uncategorized at 10:59 am by admin

Torah. Why Torah? All those prayers every day. How come? Mitvahs. So many. What is up with that?

We need a plan. We need a plan for connection to God. We need a plan for our lives. Otherwise by living in this world and only reacting to each situation the best we can, we cut ourselves short of the incredible abundance that is always being offered to us.

Beyond the stories and the characters and the lessons that Torah teaches there is of course a divine purpose. We are being trained as a person. We are being trained as a people. This training is about the only game in town. It is the why and the how our thoughts work together to produce everything that we experience. There are no exceptions. If you were to design a machine that does our will you would produce some of our most advanced computers. However these computers work within the parameters that are outward producing. We still have to place the inside information within them in order to process their functionality.

Consider the ark, the temple and the many details which go into their making. Why do we all need to know how to make this temple which now no longer stands? It is because we aren’t building an outer temple at all but the inner design of our thinking. We are building constantly our template for living in this world and experiencing everything that we are thinking about it. We are miners of cosmic energy. We are given the ability to tranmute this energy into thought and then into forms of our making. It is our responsibility to take only the highest grades of thought into our internal being. The lower grades need seasoning and must be sent back for additional processing. This processing takes place because of our awareness of their capabilities, the capacities inherent in thought from lowest to highest grades of material. This material can be said to be spiritual. Spirit in this case refers to thought before our making and after our making. Thought or spirit is unlimited. At a certain point in our making spirit becomes holy. This holy spirit is our own permutation of the malleable spirit now imbued with our sense of being. Movements take place within this spirit that raises this spirit or thought to the level of unification. It becomes like other thoughts that have been raised and it is added to this holy thought, with its own energy of being now unified with the whole of being that is becoming transformed. In the world around you this happens every moment.

Make the connection.
Expand your mind to fill your soul.
That’s the point.
Expand by letting go.
Leave the ego behind.
The dweller on the threshhold is the gatekeeper.
All negativity is kept out and recycled this way.
All thoughts are devices for inner awareness.
Once the dweller in place, that is once you understand that you have the power to produce a non permeable mind filter to stop the negativity from interfering with your process of unfoldment, you join with and are one with God.
The will to give and the will to receive work flawlessly producing everything you need. Everything you want. No exceptions.

Go deep within allowing thoughts to expand, filling your awareness with everything you could imagine and all of it good. Remember the dweller catches everything amiss. We are used to spending so much time defending this and that, but now with the device of the dweller on the threshhold in place, we are free to soar. Everything becomes possible.

Look at the letters YHVH. Consider the shapes in English and not in Hebrew.
The Y, a tree, life in extension, symbol of our expanding thoughts.
The H, the unification of two which become one. Our thoughts unifying through our attention to our central purpose.
The V, the penetration of the seeds of thought into the great mother, through Binah opening up to fill the world with our creations-formations, the outpicturing of thought into form.
The H, again stability, opposites harmonized, the form realized. Our dreams come true. Heaven on Earth. Immortality. Divine Consciousness.

A hint here and just one. The dweller on the threshhold is only put in place after you have learned to watch and listen to your thinking and make the right choices along the way. Then in one miraculous moment the dweller appears, negativity now becomes dissipated into its undifferentiated energy (sin no more), and you are filled with abundance of vision to make your world into the Garden of Eden of your choosing.

Question was asked about why Yud Bet Mem, the 70th of the names of God has a regular Mem and not a final Mem.

—–Keep in mind these 72 names are generated by using the Atbash cypher.

Exodus 14: Verses 19-21 are the source for these names.
There are 72 letters in verse 19 and verse 20 and verse 21.

Take the 1st letter of verse 19, which is Vav, Take the last letter of verse 20, which is Heh.
Take the 1st letter of verse 21, which is Vav.
This generates the first name, Vav Heh Vav.

Take the 2nd letter of verse 19, which is Yud, Take the 2nd to last letter of verse 20, which is Lamed.
Take the 2nd letter of verse 21, which is Yud.
This generates the second name, Yud Lamed Yud.

the direction is right to left starting from the first letter with verse 19
left to right starting with the last letter of verse 20
right to left starting with the 1st letter of verse 21

Verse 19 contributes the first letter of each name
Verse 20 contributes the 2nd letter of each name
Verse 21 contributes the 3rd letter of each name

Follow this sequence until you reach Yud Bet Mem
This is the third to the last name or the 70th name.

Yud Bet Mem is generated by taking the 70th or third to the last letter of Exodus 14 verse 19 which is Yud
The third letter of verse 20 which is Bet
The 70th letter of verse 21 which is Mem (not final)

It is a code, a cypher.

Here is an answer for a student who feels she is in a rut and cannot figure out what to do. They want to help others but do not know where to start.

——I have to tell you. You are in charge here. No one else. You don’t have to make a career out of helping others, only be aware that when you can you do.

First you get your act together. Forget your past. Visualize clouds dissipating on a bright sunny day. The clouds come from the ego. The sun from your self always residing in the Garden of Eden.

A good way to start helping others is to send them love. Start with five of your closest people and individually and enmasse send them your love, your good wishes, your blessings for a life of fulfillment. Be elaborate here and take your time. You don’t need to tell then you are doing this.

You need to act, to express the good that your creator is constantly sending you.

If you are a student, study or write. Music, art, dance, drama, any of these will help you to unwind that soul of yours. Most importantly is your daily work on yourself.

Write down what you need in your life. Make this list for yourself. Helping others cannot be accomplished until we ourselves get it right. People learn by example. Start making an example of yourself. You deserve everything. The creator is sending this to you now. Open up and feel the all encompassing love of the creator filling you and inspiring. The purpose of this exercise is to open up your heart and mind to the possibilities already there inside of yourself.

Begin with yourself. Invent new ways to create a positive thought atmosphere around yourself. You are working with your very being, the essence of you. As a sculptor shapes the clay of his figures, you too shape the mind stuff into thoughts which then picture themselves in your life as forms and living things. This is why it is so important to have your main focus on positive visions.

If you find you cannot help yourself and you keep thinking negativity, here is another trick learned through the years. Surround yourself with a psychic cloak of invisibility. This prevents the mind stuff from breaking into negative images. It keeps it in stasis until you have the presence of mind to actively shape your thinking into being. Try this my friend and you will never be disappointed. You will change the movie and your life will start to flow in the course that the creator has already provided.

A continuation of KiTetze:

The birds nest and the young and the dam. You can take the young or the eggs but not the dam that it may go well with thee.
The symbols here are about the higher influences, the upper sephirot of Chokmah and Binah. The dam or the progenitor is left alone because the source of all good cannot be stopped. Birth must keep taking place. The product of this birth, the eggs and the young are fair game in that their purpose is to be brought into manifestation. You are essentially harvesting them. Taking the mother or dam alone leaves your harvest without nurture. In this case your thoughts without the certainty of their issuing forth. The young and the eggs are your understanding of the products of your thinking. In each case can they be taken because thought builds upon itself and flows according to divine wisdom.

Every house must be builded with a parapet, so as not to bring blood upon the house should a man fall from it.
The house is your own internal unity of thinking. The wall or parapet is Torah or the unity and the man is the initiating force. There must always be a place to begin from in order to promote harmony and unity in thinking. Torah or the protection of Torah as a series of unified expressions of unity provides this fence or starting point for the extension of inspiration and new Torah meanings.

Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with two kinds of seed; lest the fulness of the seed which thou hast sown be forfeited together with the increase of the vineyard. The seeds are your initial inspirations, the vineyard the place of higher thought from wine and intoxication, the sense of letting go is here. The fulness is the ripening of a seed which overshadows the growth of dual ideas competing for manifestation. Be clear. Be one in your sowing and then be one in your reaping.

Thou shalt not plow with an ox and an ass together. Everything you use to promote your ideas into manifestation must be harmonious in their actions together. An Ox and a donkey would pull in opposite directions therefore defeating your purpose. Again the idea of one and of unity is presented.

This is in response to someone who can’t figure out why after trying for over forty years of studying Kabbalah and other spirituality they still haven’t reached salvation. They still have doubts about this. My answer is below. It applies to this person and all of us.

Forget the books. In your case they haven’t inspired you to look within. You have forgotten to let go which the books in their own way have been telling you.

The answer turns out to be simple. Let go of the you that is trying so hard. Your salvation is right here today in this moment as you are reading these words. If not now when.

Forget about the sufferings of others. What they need from you is not an affirmation of their suffering, but an example of your liberation. In this case misery does not want company.

Be an example by working on your thinking to make it cheerful. Actively promote the good within yourself. Make it up as you go along. Try this for one day. Try promoting your happiness within by telling yourself about every good thing you can think of. One way is to give. Give love within to those you love and those you have a problem loving. Give love to yourself. Find new ways to promote your own happiness through sharing and giving and receiving. Be attentive to what you receive in response to this continuing attitude you are making. This is your salvation. It can only come from within.

This is a huge responsibility but afterwhile it really is a childs game of amusement. Why are children so carefree and happy? They let go all the time to receive their good. The good is always there. Get out of your own way. Listen for your good. This isn’t a silly exercise but the path to salvation which continues every day. Once your certainty is established in this, then and only then can you help those who are suffering. Until then, if you have not mastered your self control by resisting negativity, those who are suffering are the worse off for any attention you may give them. Clean your own house first and keep it clean.

Your complaints about not making it are part of the problem. Stop these.

YOU MADE YOUR DOUBTS. You made your doubts by holding on to them in your mind. You made your doubts by telling others about them and listening to others tell you their doubts. I assume you did not know any better. Now you’ve been told. There can no longer be any more excuses.

STOP MAKING YOUR DOUBTS. Dismiss them. Dissipate them. Refuse to accept them. Free will remember. Free will to choose what to think about. It is this choice which is your salvation. Make your certainty the same way. Produce it from within. Choose good thoughts Hold on to certainty. Write down good thoughts. Count your blessings, hug your wife, make your own happiness within moment by moment along your path of realization. Yes you have a calling. It is to be yourself and to be happy as your Creator keeps sending you happiness each moment. Listen and practice the exercise above until you are able to make it through one twenty four hour period of happiness, including your sleep and into the next morning. Then you know it’s working and can continue this exercise indefinitely for the rest of your life.

Lighten up. Have fun. You are always a child. Act your age. Be small. Open with awe to your creator who has been waiting all this time for you to really listen. Look up with wonder.

Creation and Evolution are not mutually exclusive. “Kabbalah” is a method of inquiry into the mysteries of the universe.
Creation is clearly a process of Evolution.
From “without form and void”, to “let there be light,”to the “heavens and earth”, to myriad creatures, flying things, and then man. Even after man there is evolution, “these are the generations of …” Keep it simple. From thought follows form. Thought is endless, unimaginable. That’s where the starting point is. Before thought, Being and Knowing.
The process of creation is a mystery. The real question is whether a person is ready to let go into the mystery.
Kabbalah is based on the Torah which was written long before Darwin’s theory. It would therefore be impossible for Torah to speak to Darwin’s theory because Torah obviously predates the Darwin theory, by thousands of years. Science 3000 years ago was in the beginnings of its development. Darwin’s theory is in large part dependent upon the Creation story which gives a progression of forms. It’s just that Darwin began his story after the beginning and did not try and delve into the mystery of creation itself. So in this case the chicken is Creation and the egg Darwin, in the sense that the one begat the other. Darwin’s theory attempts to give a logical progression of form in as much detail as he had the information for at the time. Darwin choose only to look at the outer world while Kabbalah’s realm is the inner world which brings about the outer existence
