בראשית ברא אלהים
As you remember we explained that בראשית Bereishit is the first word of the Bible, which as an anagram can mean ראש “Rosh” head and בית “Beth” house. So from that point of view, “Bereishit Bera Elohim” means: “the head of our house is a creator God” and this is what you have to visualize when we say:
In the beginning was the Word (meaning: “Bereishit” was the word – in the head), and the Word (Bereishit) was with God (Elohim in the blood), and the Word (Bereishit) was God (Iod-Havah Elohim).
The letter א Aleph, which is the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, symbolizes air. Thus, through our head, which is Bereishit, we breathe, because in it is where we have the nose. So the oxygen that enters through the nose, goes into the lungs which purifies the blood; this is why it is written, "and the Word was with God (in the blood)," and at the end it is stated "and the Word was God." This means Bereishit is (Binah) God (the Creator Elohim), a descent of the creative force from the head and heart into the sexual organs. Because "and the Word was God," is pointing at the Sephirah Binah.
In the head we have the primary forces, Kether, Chokmah, Binah. Kether the crown, Chokmah the right hemisphere of the brain, and Binah the left hemisphere of the brain, form the Trinity in Atziluth: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. So, “in the beginning was the Word.” Bereishit was the Word, which is the head of the house of the creator God (Bereishit Bera Elohim) related with the three primary forces or electric forces that are connected with our nervous systems. We have three nervous systems: the central nervous system, the grand sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. So these three nervous systems are related with the Holy Trinity because the Holy Trinity are three forces in our physical body; this is how we have to look at it.
When we talk about the Father, we always concentrate our mind in the head. When we talk about the Son, we concentrate on our heart, and when we talk about the Holy Spirit, it is in the sexual organs because the power of the Holy Spirit is related to Briah, creation.
This is how we understand that in the head “in the beginning was the Word”, and in the blood “the Word was with God”; and the blood becomes semen, which becomes “and the word was God” as a creative force (Bera Elohim). This is how from the Kabbalistic point of view we study the three brains: the intellectual brain, the emotional brain, and the sexual-motor-instinctual brain. So, to worship God is to work with these three forces.
Cult means "to worship," to cultivate, from Cultus, past participle of the word colere, which means "to cultivate" the forces that we have in the body, because the physical body is a temple of God.
We have to understand that (Bera Elohim) the Creator God is not a person but an energy. Usually, we waste the energy of Binah that we call (Bera Elohim) the Creator God; we squander it through our three brains.
So, to enter into “religare,” religion, is to know how to cultivate these forces, to save them, to gather them in our psyche and in our Spirit. Unfortunately, within our body we have also the mechanical animalistic forces of the Moon that act in each one of us from within.
The Father, which is in the head, which is heaven in us, has the reflection of its power in the liver. The liver is related with the impure blood, which relates to which in Hebrew is called Nephesh, which is that animalistic force that impels us physically, whether for good or for bad. There is no discrimination in the liver for the things that we eat; whether the things that we eat are good or bad, the liver takes them but never makes a discrimination or division like the heart. The heart does discriminate; the heart reflects the power of the Son. The heart makes a division; it takes the impure blood and purifies it, yet the liver doesn't do that. So, this is why we state that we have Satan in our belly, in the liver, which is nothing but Behemoth, “the force that generates” and which relates to the sexual force. When the impure blood goes into the sexual organs, it becomes sexual potency; through the liver the animals receive their sexual strength, and this is how they are naturally impelled into reproduction according with the cycles of nature. Thus, the one that impels them to reproduce themselves in the way that we see is called Satan, which in the sexual organs is the outcome of the impure blood. We - as intellectual animals - have the same impelling force.
When we enter into this path, we have to fight against that animal-instinctual force that our body creates everyday. We have to control it in order to cultivate the heavenly forces, which are related with the three primary forces, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, which circulate in our body through the three nervous systems and that relate to our three brains. Thus, we have to understand that this Satan or impure force, impure blood, that relates to the animal kingdom, to the mechanicity of nature, also utilizes the three primary forces, because indeed Satan is the reflection of the three primary forces. This is why the Star of David is represented by two triangles: the first triangle which is Kether, Chokmah, Binah / Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, joined to an upside down triangle, which is the opposite of the three primary forces. That upside triangle is what we call Satan. Both triangles are related with the three brains. This is why the work that we have to do, the cult that we have to perform inside, relates to the three brains. In each brain we find that double action.
Thus, we have to study our three brains in order to polarize ourselves with the three primary forces. This is what the Sacred Solar Absolute Sun wants: to crystallize these three primary forces in us. Now, understand that this is a long path, the work that we have to perform inside.
This is the fight against the dragon. This is how it is explained in mythology; the dragon is not only in Chinese, Greek, Roman, and Nordic mythology, but also in Hebrew mythology:
Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn? ….his teeth are terrible round about. His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal. One is so near to another that no air can come between them. They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. By his sneezing a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. Out of his nostrils goes smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron. His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goes out of his mouth. – Job 41: 1, 2, 14-22
We also find the symbol of the dragon in the Book of Revelation. Michael fights against the dragon:
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels. And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. - Revelation 12: 7-9
When we read the former quotations, we have to apply them to our psyche, our psychosomatic selves: from psyche,which is soul, consciousness; and from soma, body. Psychosomatic refers the body and the psyche in us. So, forget about the outside world: we have apply the scriptures inside of us in order to understand them, and to comprehend how Michael and his angels fight against the dragon and his angels, or Satan and his angels.
The name מיכאל Michael is Hebrew and means "He who is like God." Michael is related to the sephirah Tiphereth. Tiphereth is ruled by the Sun (Shamash in Hebrew). In Kabbalah we always associate Tiphereth, the Sun, with Jacob and his twelve tribes.
The twelve tribes of Israel relate to the twelve zodiacal signs (archetypes) of the sephirah Chokmah. Chokmah in Hebrew means “wisdom.” Chokmah relates to the Son, the second aspect of the Trinity. Chokmah reflects his power in the heart, and in the heart we have the Nous atom (a spiritual intelligence). The Nous atom is "he who is like God." God is in the head, but "he who is like God" is the Nous atom, because it is the only part of us that walks with God, with the Elohim.
The angels of Michael are the twelve archetypes represented in the twelve zodiacal signs of Chokmah, which are 144,000 among the twelve tribes, archetypes, or elements, principles of Israel that everyone has, and that we have to develop through the heart, because even though they relate to all the organs, the way to develop ourselves is through the heart.
The dragon (Satan) and his angels relate to the three negative aspects that we have to fight against, represented in the upside-down triangle, which represents within the three brains our defects and vices, which are animalistic. In this day and age, psychology calls them human defects (such as anger, pride, vanity, laziness, gluttony, lust, etc.). They are not “human” defects but animal elements that should not exist within us. In order to be real humans, we cannot have such elements within us.
Satan is a force that is centered in the belly, the area of the lower abdomen, where we have the liver, spleen, and sexual organs. That is where we have the lower triangle.
Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eats grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the (liver and spleen) navel of his belly. – Job 40: 15, 16
Behemoth is the force of Satan that nourishes all the defects that we have within. Our defects are the angels of Satan that fight against Michael, who is in the heart. Kabbalistically, this is simple: the lungs (the sephiroth Chesed and Geburah) purify the blood in our heart (Michael, the sephirah Tiphereth). This is Michael fighting against Satan. Satan is in the sephiroth Netzach, Hod, and Yesod, which are related to the kidneys, liver, and spleen, the three organs that provide the sexual organs with energy. Hod and Netzach relate to the kidneys, liver and spleen; through the impure blood they nourish the sexual organs, the sephirah Yesod. This upside down triangle (Netzach, Hod, Yesod) represents the force of Satan, or what we call “the inferior lunar protoplasmic bodies” that any animal has. In Tiphereth we have the other triangle, which is the triangle of the Monad. Everyone has their own particular, individual Monad. The word Monad comes from the Greek "monas," which means "unity." In Sanskrit the Monad is called Atman-Buddhi-Manas. These three are the Spirit, the Divine Soul, and the Human Soul, or in Kabbalah: Chesed, Geburah, and Tiphereth. The Monad has to fight against animal forces in the protoplasmic bodies, that within us relate with Netzach, Hod, Yesod.
So, as we have the strength of the triangle of the Monad (Chesed, Geburah, the lungs; and Tiphereth, the heart) within, we also have the strength of the triangle of the protoplasmic bodies (Netzach, Hod, liver and spleen; and Yesod, genitalia) within. These two triangles represent God and Satan; God is above, Satan is below. If we wisely unite the two triangles, we make the Star of David, which represents the alchemical fight that we have to do.
Michael, "he who is like God," is Tiphereth, the Nous atom, and is also called the Son of Man. This force within us has to fight against the devil. Never think that the devil is outside of you. That is the problem of this humanity. Everyone thinks the devil is outside somewhere, a spirit with horns who is controlling humanity. Understand: the devil is inside of us. He works through our three brains. God also needs to act through our three brains. Our will determines who is going to win the battle. Right now, Satan is winning in every single human being in the world. But when we enter into this path, then we resolve to stop the Satanic cult. To stop the Satanic cult means to stop our animalistic behavior: habits, thoughts, and feelings that all of us have.
In this day and age, a lot of people talk about cults. They think a cult is something that is outside of them. Listen: everyone is cultivating something inside; whether it is godly or devilish depends upon us.
Now, I repeat, all of society is worshipping Satan inside, which is their mechanical, animal aspect. The Conjuration of the Seven given by Solomon the Wise starts like this:
In the name of Michael, may Jehovah command thee and drive thee hence Chavayoth.
When you say "in the name of Michael," concentrate on your heart because "he who is like God" is in your heart: it is the Nous atom.
Jehovah is Iod Hei Vav Hei, who has his power in Yesod, the sexual organs. Jehovah Elohim is the Holy Spirit, Binah, that controls the pineal gland, and through the pineal gland controls the sexual organs, the sephirah Yesod. So when you say "in the name of Michael, may Jehovah," you are saying "in the name of the power of my heart, my pure blood, which has the breath of God, may Jehovah,” which is in the semen, the sexual force, the outcome of the purified blood, “command thee and drive thee hence Chavayoth." Chavayoth is the plural version of Chavayah, which is the Holy Name of God (Yah-Chavah) spelled backwards. Chavah comes from Chaiah, life. Chavah is the actual Hebrew name of Eve.
And Adam called his wife's name Eve (Chavah - חוה); because she was the mother of all living (חי). – Genesis 3: 20
Chavah is the Mother of all living. Thus, when in the conjuration you speak הוחי Jah-Chavah or Iod-Chavah (Jehovah), you are applying the forces of “Iod” the Holy Spirit over your sexual organs, “Chavah.” Jehovah is the Ruach Elohim who within you utilizes the powers of sex (Chavah) in the positive way. But, Jehovah spelled backwards is Chavah-Yah, Chavah-Iod, and when pluralized (multiplied) spells Chavajoth. This means the “Iod” has been expelled from from Chavah. Interestingly, when translated literally Chavah-Yah חויה means "experience of existence." This refers to physical existence, not spiritual existence. Chavah-Yah is the life force (Chavah חוה) of God (Jah יה) that creates existence in the physical world through fornication, adultery, and prostitution.
That is why Samael Aun Weor wrote in his book Esoteric Treatise of Theurgy about the demon Chavah-Yah or חוית Chavayoth:
At the side of the road we found a solemn, Olympic sculpture. It seemed to have been carved by Praxiteles! Its countenance was similar to that of the Greek Apollo. The curvature of its feet, the profile of its hands... the entire eurhythmy of that sculpture could compete with the Venus de Milo! Nevertheless, there was something ominous about that very beautiful sculpture! This precious human effigy was dressed in a blood-colored robe which had beautiful, exotic, and fatal pleats, extending down to its feet! We then comprehended that we were before Jehovah’s opposite pole. We were before the frightening and terrible Chavajoth!... That encounter was terrible. We had to defend ourselves with all of our spiritual forces in order to drive away this terrible demon of malignant beauty! Thus, we finally succeeded and the frightening personage took the form of a harlot, and hid within a tavern where only alcoholic beverages were served at the bar. Lo and behold black magic. Lo and behold the abyss!
In other words, חויה Chavah-Yah or חוחית Chavayoth represents in you the way in which you prostitute the sexual energy of Jah-Chavah (Jehovah) in order to procreate in this physical world.
In this day and age, people are very identified with Nahemah (malignant beauty), which is precisely the force of the Moon related with adultery, prostitution, and fornication. When you enter into this path, you learn this first conjuration.
In the name of Michael, may Jehovah command thee and drive thee hence, Chavajoth (Chavah-yah)!
Chavajoth represents all of that in relation with physicality.
In order to procreate, you do not need to spill your energy or your sexual force towards the exterior world in order to satisfy your animality. But to create life spiritually, you have to sublimate that force - that is, restrain it and transform it within - in order to feed your “Iod”, your Spirit, and this is the great work. This is why it is written:
And (thanks to the Sun, Michael, Tiphereth) out of (Chavah or Adamah) the ground made Jehovah Elohim (the positive ray of the Moon) to grow (from Yesod, without spilling the sexual seed) every tree (offspring) that is (Nahemad - נחמד) pleasant to the sight, and good (as Abel) for food (spiritual offering); the tree of life (the Kundalini) also (grow) in the midst (spinal medulla) of the garden (physicality), and the tree of (the) knowledge of (the) good and (the) evil (of our sexuality). - Genesis 2: 9
This is the beginning of the alchemical work.
This is why the Conjuration of the Seven of Solomon begins: "in the name of Michael," because the Sun, the Solar force, Christ, is the beginning (בראשית Bereshith).
Remember that the Lord, Christ, incarnated in the Master Jesus who as the Son of Man, said "I Am the way." That is a very Kabbalistic statement. Christ is the way, but what way is Jesus talking about? If you know Kabbalah, you know very well that the Sun, the Christ, which is in the heart of everybody, is related with Tiphereth, and Tiphereth is related with the letter Vav. The letter Vav is like this ו. The shape of the letter Vav symbolizes the spinal column in each one of us. Vav is Tiphereth. But in Kabbalah the letter Vav also represents Yesod, because in order to write “Vav” in Hebrew you have to write it with two Vav's; thus the letter Vav means Tiphereth (the Sun) and Yesod (the Moon) together. So, when you unite Yesod and Tiphereth, you do it through the Vav, which is the spinal medulla, which is precisely the way in which the energy rises to heaven. Christ is born in the coccyx and rises to heaven (the head) and descends into the heart, which is Tiphereth; this is called the ascension of the Christic force. So the letter Vav represents "the way."
When the Lord says "I am the way," he is addressing the letter Vav, because he is in Tiphereth and he also is in Yesod. Yesod is the sexual energy; he said "I am the (Chaiah) life." This is what the Gospel of John states:
In him was life; and the life was the light of men…. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. - John 1: 4, 9.
That light has to rise in the spinal column.
If you study acupuncture, you know that the feet are covered by points that relate to the internal organs. The long inner arch of both feet is related with the spinal column. Thus, when you walk with your feet, you are “walking on your spinal column.” So when the Lord says "I am the way," he is saying that the way to walk is reflected on the soles of your feet. The path is related with all the glands and organs of your organism, and are related with the twelve tribes, the twelve forces that we have to develop. So, to walk on the path means to put into activity all of the energies of your internal organs, especially the long inner arch of your feet related with the spinal column.
And Enoch walked with Elohim: and he was not; for Elohim took him. - Genesis 5: 24
The spinal medulla is the way Enoch walked with God, with Christ, because Christ is the way, He is the Vav. The letter Vav relates to the spinal medulla, which relates to the central nervous system in the middle of the other two nervous systems. These three nervous systems relate to the three primary forces that we have to work with.
The Gospel of John continues:
In him (Christ) was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. – John 1: 4-7
If you read John 1: 4-7 with light, as when you read with the eyes of the Spirit, which John says, “In him was life; and the life was the light of men,” then, “the light shineth in the darkness,” if not, then “and the darkness comprehendeth it not.”
Thereafter the gospel says, “There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.” John relates to the spinal medulla. The letter Vav, the spinal medulla, relates with the seven churches, the seven vowels, the seven chakras, “I, E, O, U, A, M, S,” or “Iohannes,” John.
The gospel continues: “a man sent from God, whose name was John, the same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.” That light is the Cosmic Christ that shines inside of everyone who transmutes the Solar force. This is the cultivation; this is the heavenly cult of the Lord that we have to do.
So therefore, you find that it is also written:
The Day of the LORD
Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. Every arrogant and every evildoer will be like straw, and that day that is coming will set them on fire," says Iod-Havah Sabbaoth. Not a root or a branch will be left to them.
But for you who cultivate my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. And you will go out and leap like calves released from the stall. - Malachi 4: 1-2
It is very significant that in English the word calves refers to a part of your legs and also young cows or bulls. The cow or bull relates to Binah, the Holy Spirit. This is why it is written in Ezekiel 1:7 that the sole of the feet of the creature that he saw in vision had the sole of a calf’s foot.
And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot. - Ezekiel 1: 7
Our calves represent the forces of the Earth, the sexual forces of the Holy Spirit, the animal forces of Aquarius. So “go out and leap like calves released from the stall” symbolizes the alchemical work; remember what we are talking about: our feet relates to the spinal column and to all the organs. Thus, when you “go out and leap like calves released from the stall” what you are really doing is the work that we are explaining here. Every prophet wrote in alchemical symbols; thus, Malachi 4: 1-6 did not just imagine that everybody will be happy and leaping like a calf, no! Understand, the calves are in relation with the lower part of your legs, from your knees down: they represent the forces of the Earth.
When I said this it comes into my mind the prophet Elijah; it is written:
And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees. – 1 Kings 18: 42
In order to pray to God and to do his miracles Elijah usually put his face between his knees. That is a very significant symbol; this is indicating that all the forces that Elijah was gathering in his head were coming from his sexual organs, from the calves (rule by Uranus) of his lower body, which is the physical body. This is something that you really see when you know how to read. Sequentially Malachi stated:
Then you will trample down the wicked; they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day when I do these things," says Iod-Havah Sabbaoth.
Remember the law of my servant Moses, the decrees and laws I gave him at Horeb for all Israel.
See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of יהוה (Iod-Havah) comes. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers; or else I will come and strike the land with a curse. - Malachi 4: 3-6.
And this precisely the point here: before that great and dreadful day of יהוה (Iod-Havah) comes first the day of Elijah.
Elijah
Now, who is Elijah? In Hebrew, there are two ways to write this name. אליהו (Aleph, Lamed, Iod Hei Vav) is pronounced “El-i-a-o.” In some books of the bible they omit the letter Vav, thus they pronounce it אליה Eli-Jah. Nonetheless, in the first Book of Kings, where this prophet appears for the first time, it is written אליהו El-i-a-o, which means “the God I.A.O.” El is God, “Iod Hei Vav” is I.A.O. אליהו - El I A O. This is how you literally pronounce it in Hebrew.
Now it is written in the Gospels:
And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elijah must first come? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elijah truly shall first come, and restore all things. But I say unto you, That Elijah is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples understood that he spoke unto them of John the Baptist. – Matthew 17: 10-13
Here, Master Jesus is uniting El-i-a-o with John; and what did we say that John represents? John represents: I, E, O, U, A, M, S. The seven esoteric vowels in the spinal column; thus, John, represents the Vav at the end of the name אליהו El-i-a-o.
Explanation: In the Tree of Life, the name of God, El אל by itself, which was explained in detail in the previous lecture, represents Kether; but El אל also specifically represents the fourth sephirah which has two names: Chesed, which means mercy, or Gedulah, which means love. So, Chesed / Gedulah represents the Spirit. Now, if you want to say “my God, my God,” in Hebrew, you say אלי אלי "Eli, Eli." Master Jesus pronounced those words while on the Cross, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani." These are actually Mayan words. But since the first two words are very similar to the Hebrew אלי אלי "my God, my God," the translators interpreted the phrase as: “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Yet:
Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elijah. And straightway one of them ran, and took a sponge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed (the Vav, the spinal column), and gave him to drink. The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him. – Matthew 27: 47-49
“Eli” is also the shortened way to refer to Elijah. I have a friend whose name is Elijah and we call him "Eli," for short; yet, in Hebrew "Eli” means "my God."
So, each one of us has his own particular, individual, “Eli.” Thus, when you go into meditation and saying "Eli, Eli," you are saying "My God, my God, help me to concentrate, to see what I have to see, what I have to understand." In other words Eli, El, is your Monad,; “Eli” is Chesed, and every one of us has a Monad.
In the book Tarot and Kabbalah, Samael Aun Weor explains very well that every single Monad has the three primary forces or the three atoms of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit within. This means that your own particular Spirit has these three primary atoms within, which are represented in Kether, Chokmah, Binah, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. These three primary atoms within your Spirit have to work through you, through your three brains; this is how your own “Eli” works in you. He wants to organize your three brains, but Satan is also there controlling the three brains. So, see now how wisdom is so beautifully hidden within the words of the Bible.
Now, in other lectures, we explained to you that Kether is Iod, Chokmah is Hei, and Binah is Vav. I.A.O., Iod Hei Vav, because the last Hei of the holy name could be related to the Ain Soph, since, when your Monad starts working within yourself the last Hei becomes your physical body. In other words, within our particular, individual, Spirit, our Monad, is I.A.O. So our own particular “El” Monad is “i-a-o,” “El-i-a-o.” The Monad is Elijah within you, which has to develop, because Elijah (the lesser IAO) has to work first in order for the Lord (יהוה - Iod-Havah, the higher IAO) to come and to do the higher work; this is what the prophet Malachi says.
See, I will send you the prophet אליהו El-i-a-o before that great and dreadful day of יהוה (IAOH) comes. - Malachi
Thus, Elijah comes first before the day of IAO, but what is that the day of the Lord IAO? Well, for that you have to know Kabbalah. Listen: Elias or Elijah the prophet works in your three brains. The three brains are related in our animal nature with Yesod, Hod, and Netzach, the lower triangle of the Tree of Life.
- Yesod relates to the sexual organs
- Hod to the emotional brain
- Netzach to the intellectual brain.
That is why in Hebrew metzach, with "m," means "forehead." Some Kabbalists claim that Netzach is emotional, but it is not. Any Kabbalist who knows Hebrew knows that metzach is the forehead, related to the sephirah Netzach, which is the mind.
Hod is the astral light, which relates to the heart.
Yesod is the sexual creative energy, related to Yesod.
These Sephiroth are related precisely to the three protoplasmic bodies that we have within. Hod relates to the emotional body. Netzach relates to the mental body. Yesod and Malkuth are related to the physical body.
The physical body is tetradimensional; the two Sephiroth, Yesod and Malkuth united. In other words, Malkuth and Yesod, the ninth and tenth Sephiroth, are one body related to the sexual organs; when we talk about Yesod or Malkuth, we always point the sexual organs or the physical body.
So then, we have to create our own particular, individual Elijah within. That is precisely the point that we have to understand, but for that, we have to fight against the animality that we have within that relates to the three brains.
Jezebel
In the head we have this other word that is written in the Book of Kings: “Jezebel”. It is written with Iod, Aleph, Zain, Beth, Lamed... Jezebel. This is a very important word, because remember that the book of Revelation talks about Jezebel “who calls herself a prophetess,” and many prophets talk about Jezebel, but what does the word Jezebel mean? The letter Iod and the letter Aleph just by itself means "island," and "zebel" is garbage, refuse, trash. Thus Jezebel literally means “island of trash.” Where do we find that island of trash, refuse, things that do not belong to the Spirit?
Jezebel worships the Baalim. In order to understand about the Baalim, I have to tell you the second conjuration. Remember that the first is "In the name of Michael, may Jehovah command thee and drive thee hence Chavajoth." Then you say,
In the name of Gabriel, may Adonai command thee and drive thee hence, Baal.
- or Bael, or Belial.
Gabriel represents the laws of the Moon. Yet, in Kabbalah, Gabriel is Geburael, the strength of God, the perfect male. As you know, the Bible talks about Gabriel, who announced the birth of Jesus and the birth of John of the Baptist, and who in the Koran talked with Mohammed. Gabriel is related with Yesod, the sexual force.
Adonai is the holy feminine name of God in Malkuth. Adonai literally means "my lord."
Thus, Gabriel and Adonai represent Yesod and Malkuth together.
Baalim, Baal, Bael, Belial are names related to Klipoth (hell). Thus, the second conjuration is spoken to reject the forces of Klipoth, the forces of the Baalim. Baal in Hebrew means "mister," "sir," which is the contrary of Adonai, “my lord.” You see, the Lord in Malkuth is Adonai but Bael is a Sir in Klipoth, which is hell. So who or what are the Baalim? Baalim is plural for Baal or Belial (some say that Belial means "trickster.").
Belial relates to the sephirah Chokmah inverted in Klipoth. The upright sephirah Chokmah is related with faith, faith that we have to develop, so when that force is inverted into the infernal worlds (our degenerated psyche), that virtue inverts into blind faith. Blind faith is when you just believe in things and do not experience or prove what you believe; that is related with Belial. Chokmah relates to the heart, so Belial replaces it in the heart in order to act and take advantage of your beliefs. Belial is related to blind faith. So in any religion you find Belial, that relates to people who think that they are following or performing a heavenly cult, meanwhile Satan has Belial in their heart, related with Chokmah in Klipoth. When you just believe or follow something that you don't understand, or when you are applying the forces of Chokmah in the wrong way.
So Jezebel, who called herself a prophetess, worships the Baalim. In other words, Jezebel is the mind, the lunar mind that we have, that worships the Baalim, the forces of blind faith related with our animality. But Elijah or El-i-a-o appears and fights against Jezebel. If you read the Bible literally, you might say "The prophet Elijah that fought in ancient times against a lady whose name was Jezebel.” But here we are not talking about history; we are talking about the symbols written in a Kabbalistic manner within the books of the Bible. El-i-a-o or Elijah is a heavenly force that you have to cultivate in order to fight against the cult of Satan, which is under the command of your own particular mind, Jezebel, which is an island of trash, garbage that we have in the head.
Close your eyes and see all the trash that you have in your head; that is Jezebel. Jezebel worships the Baalim, the Baals, the lords of hell; and who are these lords of hell? Well, their names are lust, anger, greed, pride, laziness, gluttony, laziness, etc. all of that rubbish. The Baalim are born from the sexual force. These idols sprouted in Eden, the sexual force, when we started developing lust, the original sin. Jezebel is a whore, a prostitute; that is what we have within.
Now, in the beginning when you start doing this work, you want to slaughter all of those prophets within you who worship Baal. Remember that the Baalim are the seven capital sins, and this society in which we live, worship the Baalim.
Individually, Jezebel is our mind. In the world, Jezebel is society, this civilization. Society is Jezebel; all of its citizens are worshipping the Baalim. In this day and age, everybody who is evil, degenerated, appears on TV and is applauded by Jezebel (society). Yes, presently every degenerated thing is seen as normal. So when you start annihilating your egos, which are those elements called the prophets of Baalim or the worshippers of all defects and vices, then Jezebel turns against you, because you are worshipping the forces of Elijah.
In אליה El-i-ah (Elijah) the letter Iod and the letter Hei represent your inner Father-Mother in Daath, who relate to the alchemical work needed to fight against Jezebel.
The Sacrifice of the Bull
In the eighteenth chapter of the Book of Kings is a Kabbalistic story about the King of Israel whose name is Ahab, who is nothing but the intellectual King of Israel, because Israel represents those archetypes that are in the head that are trapped within the ego and who are working on behalf of the animal mind (Jezebel); this is the psychological condition of how all of us start. It is written:
And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father’s house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of יהוה, and thou hast followed Baalim. - 1 Kings 18: 17, 18
When you read the former quotation, understand that it is a sentence against yourself; this is how the inner battle starts. Thus Elijah states:
Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel’s table. So Ahab sent unto all the children of Israel, and gathered the prophets together unto Mount Carmel (which is Yesod). And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if יהוה be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of יהוה; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. Let them therefore give us two bullocks; and let them choose one bullock for themselves, and cut it in pieces, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: and I will dress the other bullock, and lay it on wood, and put no fire under: And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of יהוה: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken. - 1 Kings 18: 19, 24
Thus, they are going to sacrifice a bullock. If you read literally, you think an animal, a bull, an ox will be sacrificed. Yet, remember that Binah, the sexual force, is represented by a bullock, a bull. Remember your calves (young bulls) and the soles of your feet (your spine), with which you walk. And understand that the Baalim are the fornicators who utilize the same force of the bull related with the forces of the earth, from the knees down to the soles of your feet, which are the forces of your spinal column; yet, they do it in the wrong way.
And Elijah said unto the prophets of Baal, Choose you one bullock for yourselves, and dress it first; for ye are many; and call on the name of your gods, but put no fire under. And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And they leaped upon the altar which was made. And it came to pass at noon, that Elijah mocked them, and said, Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them. And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded. - 1 Kings 18: 24-29
The bullock also represents the Minotaur, the ego. Thus, this is how in this day and age there are many people who know about this doctrine and they want to annihilate their ego, nonetheless, they are trying to sacrifice the bullock, their animal elements, in the wrong way. The Master Samael very clearly taught how to annihilate the bullock, the minotaur inside of us, yet regardless, his pupils are inventing other ways because they are lazy; i.e. one disciple invented the so-called "Death March." He said: “When you walk on the streets, if all of a sudden you detect your ego coming out from within you, then, in that moment you must say ‘my Mother please eliminate from me this defect.’” This is the way he invented in order to psychologically die, without comprehension, without analysis, which is of course absolutely ludicrous. Nevertheless, this is how they ignorantly are “worshipping Baal” through their incoherent theories that neither Samael nor any prophet ever taught before. Now in Brazil there exists another Gnostic sect, which are propagating another even more incoherent way that they call "accelerated death." Through it they want also to annihilate the bullock with the forces of Baal. So, since the times of Elijah, the Baalim are teaching the same things, as the quoted chapter explains it; they were psychologically working in their own way, that is, they were trying to work in the annihilation of their ego in their own manner, yet, as we read in the Bible, they didn't accomplish anything, thus Elijah was mocking them.
And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of יהוה that was broken down. And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of יהוה came, saying, Israel shall be thy name: And with the stones he built an altar in the name of יהוה: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain TWO measures of SEED. And he put the wood in order, and cut the bullock in pieces, and laid him on the wood, and said, Fill four barrels with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice, and on the wood. And he said, Do it the second time. And they did it the second time. And he said, Do it the third time. And they did it the third time. And the water ran round about the altar; and he filled the trench also with water. And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, יהוה God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. Hear me, O יהוה, hear me, that this people may know that thou art יהוה God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. Then the fire of יהוה fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.
And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, יהוה, he is the God; יהוה, he is the God. And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. - 1 Kings18: 30-40
This quotation is of course an alchemical symbol. The lightning or fire from heaven falls through the heart into the animal sacrifice in Yesod, where you kill the ego; this is the only way to annihilate the ego, of course, after having comprehended it. It is written that after that Elijah slaughtered four hundred and fifty Baalim, and four hundred prophets of the groves, which ate at Jezebel’s table; all of this is symbolic. If you know how to read, 450 is 4 + 5 + 0 which equals 9, plus 400 equals 13, the arcanum of death. So all those false elements that worshipped the wrong things must be annihilated here and now in us, through meditation, through comprehension. It is very easy to go in the wrong way, thinking that you are doing the work and you are not doing anything. You might think that you are cultivating God or performing the heavenly cult, meanwhile you are making a Satanic cult because what you do is done outside of your true self. So we have to be serious and to visualize יהוה in us.
The Mountain Cave
It is written that after Elijah performed such a great sacrifice, he went out into the mountain to hide himself from Jezebel because she said:
So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time. - 1 Kings 19: 2
So therefore Elijah traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God. There he went into a cave and spent the night. When you read the former sentence what do you think? Maybe you think like Nietzsche who in the beginning of his “Thus Spoke Zarathustra he said:
When Zarathustra was thirty years old, he left his home and the lake of his home, and went into the mountains. There he enjoyed his spirit and solitude, and for ten years did not weary of it. But at last his heart changed,—and rising one morning with the rosy dawn, he went before the sun, and spoke thus unto it: Thou great star! What would be thy happiness if thou hadst not those for whom thou shinest! For ten years hast thou climbed hither unto my cave: thou wouldst have wearied of thy light and of the journey, had it not been for me, mine eagle, and my serpent.
Hindu traditions state that when their Masters went to the mountains of the Himalayas they went into caves. So, you find “caves” in many myths, but you must know how to read. The Master Samael Aun Weor said, “The den of desire is in the mind, the cave of the defects is in the head, it is the mind.” Thus, to go to the mountain is to go into your head, because you are like a mountain, physically speaking. You sit down and calm your physical body, relax your body, relax your “Hod” emotional center, and then go into your cave and relax your “Netzach” intellectual center, which is your own cave, your own head. There is where you can talk with God if you are in concentration, meditation; this is how Elijah did it. It is not that he went, as people think, to hide there in those literal, physical mountains of the Middle East. Thus, when you are persecuted by Jezebel, which is your animalistic mind, which makes your life miserable, do what Elijah did: go into your own mountain, sit down, and go into your cave in order to seek help from your own God. That relates precisely with the lower triangle of the Tree of Life, Yesod-Malkuth, Hod, and Netzach. Netzach which is metzach, the head, the forehead; this is the cave of Elijah.
In The Zohar, during the time of Roman persecution, when his brother was killed, Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai hid in a cave for 13 years from the Romans who wanted to kill him too. Thus he described to his son, Eleazar, his mystical encounter with Elijah the Prophet; it is similar story, right? The Zohar explains that in that cave Elijah appeared and taught him what is written in the Zohar. Yes, Elijah and nobody other than Elijah taught him The Zohar. So, Elijah appeared to him in the cave. This is very clear when you know Kabbalah. Yes, in his cave - in meditation - his own particular, individual Elijah taught him The Zohar; thus, he wrote it, a marvelous book.
And I saw in the right hand of (Eli Eli….) him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. - Revelation 5: 1
Every Initiate has to do likewise before the day of the Lord.
Sequentially, it is written that when Jezebel sought Elijah to kill him, Elijah the prophet - while being within the cave - heard a voice inside of him:
And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of יהוה came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, אליהו El-i-a-o? And he said, I have been very jealous for יהוה God of hosts: for the children of Israel (fanatics from any of the 12 zodiacal signs) have forsaken thy covenant (chastity in Yesod), thrown down thine altars (second chambers in Hod), and (in Netzach) slain thy prophets (missionaries) with the sword (the tongue); and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away. And יהוה said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before IAOH. - 1 Kings 19: 9, 10
This beautifully describes what we have to do in order for us to receive the help of יהוה Jehovah. He is talking with Jehovah, but he is אליהו El-i-a-o, and in the spelling of his name only one letter is missing of the word “IAOH” Iod Hei Vav Hei: only the letter Hei.
And, behold, יהוה passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before יהוה; but יהוה was not in the wind: - 1 Kings 19: 11
Let us read it with Kabbalistic vision. He says that he is in the cave and he hears a strong wind; wind in Hebrew is Ruach. This is the Ruach Elohim that is related with Chesed, your own Spirit. The Ruach is (according to Genesis) the first element that goes into the waters of Malkuth (Mizrahim) in order to work with your chastity or with the First Initiation of Major Mysteries; we start the alchemical work with the wind. However, the Bible states: "but יהוה was not in the wind," because the wind Ruach, which is represented by the letter Aleph are three Iods, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Iod Hei Vav. So Iod Hei Vav Hei is not in the wind, it's just the Iod, the Aleph.
And after the wind an earthquake; but יהוה was not in the earthquake: - 1 Kings 19: 11
The earthquake is the power of the Almighty God related with the waters of Yesod, the second Sephirah. In Yesod you fight El-Shaddai, the Almighty God, but יהוה was not in the earthquake, but the letter Hei was, because the letter Iod is in the first Malkuth and the letter Hei is in the second Yesod because the letter Hei is the sexual power in Yesod; Malkuth-Yesod are Iod Hei.
And after the earthquake a fire; but יהוה was not in the fire: - 1 Kings 19: 12- 14
Fire is in the heart, it's in relation with the Sephirah Hod, the Christic fire of Hod. But Iod Hei Vav Hei was not in the fire, because the fire that rises in the spinal column represents the letter Vav of Iod Hei Vav, Hei, “I.A.O. H.” Vav represents Hod.
And after the fire a still small voice [the sound of “Shin,” the fire, the sound of the letter ה “Hei” hhhhhhhh]. And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah? And he said, I have been very jealous for יהוה Elohim Sabbaoth: because the children of Israel (fanatics from any of the 12 zodiacal signs) have forsaken thy covenant (chastity in Yesod), thrown down thine altars (second chambers in Hod), and (in Netzach) slain thy prophets (missionaries) with the sword (the tongue); and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away. – 1 Kings 19: 12- 14
Thus, when you reach your head, which is metzach, the forehead, you then enter into the sephirah Netzach. Here is when Elijah listens or hears a very subtle sound, a very subtle voice. If you know the Hebrew language, you know that the letter Hei sounds like this (hhhhhhhh), with your throat, your palate touching your tongue, like an inner ssssss, that's Hei, that is the sound, that is the hissing of “Shin” the serpent of fire.
So, when the fire reaches Netzach, Iod Hei Vav Hei is already formed within. That is:
- Malkuth, the physical body
- Yesod, the vital body
- Hod, the astral body
- Netzach, your mental body
Thus, Iod Hei Vav Hei is done. The Astral and Mental bodies have been created, and the Vital and physical bodies have been Christified. Thus, we now have the right to see Jehovah.
Behold, it is very significant that the holy name of God here in Netzach - when you study Kabbalah - is Jehovah Sabbaoth or Iod Hei Vav Hei Sabbaoth. So, Netzach is the first Sephirah from the bottom to the top where the name Jehovah appears, which is translated in the Bible as “Jehovah of Hosts” or “the Lord of Hosts.”
This is why all of Elijah’s powers relate to the mind, because Jehovah of Hosts, Iod Hei Vav Hei Sabbaoth, is within him, or all the power of the Word (יהוה) is developed within him; indeed Elijah has to be developed within us as well, because remember that Elijah is to come first before the day of the Lord.
See, I will send you the prophet אליהו El-i-a-o before that great and dreadful day of יהוה (IAOH) comes. - Malachi
So, what is the day of the Lord, the great and dreadful day of יהוה (IAOH)? The day of the Lord יהוה (IAOH) is Tiphereth, because after you reach Netzach, the Mental body, you have to enter into Tiphereth, the Casual body, which is the day or initiation of the Lord יהוה (IAOH), because there are five days; the fifth is the fifth initiation, that is the initiation of Tiphereth, the day of the Lord. And why is it called the day of the Lord? Well it is because also in Tiphereth you also find the name Iod Hei Vav Hei, Jehovah.
The holy name of God in Tiphereth, your heart, is Eloah-Va-Daath Iod Hei Vav Hei; the heart is the kingdom of Chokmah who is also called in Kabbalah Iod Hei Vav Hei. So, in Chokmah you find Iod Hei Vav Hei and that is why it is said that there is no other God than Iod Hei Vav Hei. Iod Hei Vav Hei (IAOH) Jehovah is related to Chokmah, which is Christ reflected in the heart. As you see, Chokmah - who reflects Iod Hei Vav Hei in the heart - and Tiphereth are related; and it is precisely in Tiphereth where the initiate - if he decides to take the Direct Path - receives the power of Chokmah, because in order for you to be in the day of the Lord which is Iod Hei Vav Hei, the Christ, which is the Light, which is the life, which is the way, first you have to develop your own individual Elijah. We develop our own individual Elijah by working with our three brains, by doing the heavenly cultivation, the heavenly cult within us, by working against Jezebel and all of those prophets that worship Baalim, Belial, Bael which are within us too.
Thus, this is how you receive the help of the Lord, in the day of the Lord, which is Tiphereth. This is precisely what this humanity is expecting, especially Christianity; they want to receive the Lord in order to go up to heaven, because the Lord comes in order to finish the work that Elijah started.
Elijah represents Bodhichitta, part of the Bodhisattva.
Therefore the Lord, which is Chokmah (wisdom) enters in Tiphereth. This is called “the Venustic Initiation.” Christ comes in order to help us keep working with the three brains, because the whole work is inside of us. The savior incarnates to fight against Satan, because he has to defeat three temptations, which are related with the three brains; yes, the entire drama of the Lord has to be lived inside of us, physically, psychologically, spiritually. Here, we are talking about this superior aspect because we always want to know the way.
In this day and age we are approaching the end of this root race. This root race (humanity) is being annihilated. There are many searchers that want to find the path, ignoring that the path is inside. So, you have to learn that it is not by rising your hand aloft that you are going to receive Yeshua (the savior). In order to receive Yeshua, know that John the Baptist, who is the reincarnation of Elijah, must first appear inside of you. John the Baptist is I, E, O, U, A, M, S, the seven churches in your spinal column, the seven vowels. When those churches are developed in the lower four bodies, then Elijah can appear, which represents your own particular, individual Monad. This means that the first work that we have to perform in ourselves, is guided by our own particular Monad, our own particular Spirit, our own “Eli,” our own God; yes, only our internal God can guide us in the path. We only explain to you the rules or the secrets, but then you have to go and to awaken that within you, and allow your Inner God to work against your Jezebel, who represents all the garbage within.
If you do not do anything practical, you have blind faith. In order to have faith with light, you have to work; faith without works is dead.
But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been made in God. - John 3:21
All those marvels that you see written in the Bible about Elijah, the prophet, must be developed within you. Thus, you will understand that every time that you go into your cave, the crows, or the ravens have to bring you food.
The ravens are the symbol of the Holy Spirit, birds of Saturn, which represent death. This means that Elijah is there in his cave annihilating his defects, working on himself. Thus, when he annihilates those defects and vices, the ravens, which are the symbol of death, bring him the bread of wisdom. All of us are hungry for that bread in order to feed our souls. Listen, that bread is brought to us only by the ravens, by the crows, which are the symbol of death. If we are dying psychologically, if we know how to die in the cave, in the head, in meditation, if you hear that sound, the subtle voice of your own God, then he will guide you, and prepare you for the day of the Lord, which is Tiphereth.
And if you take the Direct Path, Chokmah will come into you and help you to annihilate the rest, because without the help of the Lord (the Christ, Iod Hei Vav Hei, Chokmah), it is impossible to do the work. This is what Jesus taught with his life, but let us not fall into confusion and think that this is done just by believing or by reading the books. Understand it is by doing the great work inside; you have to do it everyday. You have to go into your cave everyday, to meditate everyday, and to fight against Jezebel everyday. So if you are doing that, then the Inner Lord inside sees that you really are serious, thus, if you ever reach the high level of Iod Hei Vav Hei, which is Tiphereth, then Chokmah will come into you, and that will be the day of your own particular, individual, Lord. Thus Iod Hei Vav Hei will perform within you the work that he performed within Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Krishna, Quetzalcoatl, and Samael Aun Weor.
Questions and Answers
Audience: Master Samael said on one occasion he was not going to be practicing Sahaja Maithuna but he was by himself, he was able to eliminate 50% of his own egos. Now single people can actually eliminate 50% of their own ego, but that doesn't mean that you can rise yourselves to the level of seeing the day of the Lord, is that correct?
Instructor: Yes, you are correct, that doesn't mean that you can rise yourself to the level of seeing the day of the Lord. In order to experience the day of the Lord, you have to Christify the physical body, vital body, astral body, mental body, in order to enter into the day of the Lord, which is the fifth initiation of Major Mysteries, the Initiation of Tiphereth, that is the day of the Lord. The Lord is Iod Hei Vav Hei, which is Chokmah, who in the universe expresses his Self through the Sun, the light. This is why the Lord said: "I am the light of the world," the solar light. So Christ, the Cosmic Christ, expresses itself through the Solar light. The sun, the solar light is represented in Tiphereth, the Human Soul; Tiphereth is the Son of Man, the atom Nous, it is Noah inside of you, who builds the Ark first in order to be saved.
Understand, nobody in the time of Noah said: "Oh I have faith in God, so let the deluge come and I will swim in the waters," no, no, no. The Lord יהוה (IAOH) said you have to build the Ark, thus, this is what we have to do first. Build the Ark and when the Ark is done, then you go inside, so the first thing that we have to do is that: to built the internal bodies, symbol of the Ark, in order to be saved. But of course, before that, God sees Noah and says "he's a righteous man, following the Path of the Gods." You have to do that too, and this is precisely by working with the three factors of the revolution of the consciousness, because remember that Elijah, El-i-a-o, the Inner Monad of each one of us is working against the Baalim, against Jezebel in the beginning. And that El-i-a-o is your own Monad that utilizes the three primary forces within you against Jezebel, who is your animality.
Single people can actually eliminate 50% of their own ego precisely in a single work; of course if you do it in the alchemical work with your spouse, is even better, but you can do it as a single person too. Master Samael explained that he did it during a magnetic pause, after having reached that level, the fifth initiation, he then just stopped sexual magic and started working like El-i-a-o, against himself; nonetheless he reached a moment when he needed help on the alchemical work with his spouse. So the same thing can happen with us, if we do the work individually we can reach a maximum 50% of the annihilation of the Baalim and all that garbage of Jezebel, and then the Lord can help us if we of course reach that level. Since, the day of the Lord, I repeat, is the fifth initiation of Major Mysteries when the initiate does takes the path of Tiphereth, such is the day of the Lord, because you can reach the fifth initiation and not to take the path of the Lord but the spiral path.
The Lord יהוה (IAOH) doesn't incarnate into those who take the spiral path, only within the ones who take the Direct Path.
For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith יהוה (IAOH) Sabbaoth, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. – Malachi 4: 1
But the day of the Lord (יהוה - IAOH) will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. - 2 Peter 3:10-13
יהוה (IAOH) Sabbaoth comes into you like a fire, because He is solar fire who transforms you into a Solar Man, of course, this is an alchemical process.
Now, listen to this, in the Bible, El-i-a-o is translated as Elijah, and sometimes as Elias, why? It is because such is precisely the Greek word for the Sun, Elios, Elijah, El-li-o, Elios, the Sun. The forces of Helios, the Sun, are the forces of Elijah, this is why in the transfiguration, Jesus appears between Moses and Elijah. Moses represents the law that we have to comprehend, that we have to understand Kabbalistically, because this is what Moses wrote: it is Kabbalah. Elijah represents that alchemical work that we have to do, which we have to defend with a lot of zeal. Initiates are zealous of the work of God within when fighting against Jezebel; the zeal of Elijah that is written in the Bible is shown when you are cruel against yourself, when you have no mercy against yourself, when you die psychologically everyday, such is precisely Elijah’s zeal. Read 1 Kings chapter 18; there you will understand who Elijah is; Elijah is your Monad, utilizing the three primary forces in the lower bodies, and the Lord also utilizes the three primary forces through Tiphereth, thus He performs a great transformation.
Audience: You said that when Jesus was on cross, he pronounced Eli Eli …
Instructor: Yes, the words that Jesus pronounced on the cross were Mayan words. Samael Aun Weor explains in many of his books and lectures that the word that Master Jesus pronounced on the cross "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani" are Mayan words. These words mean "now I submerge within the twilight of the dawning of his presence." Before the dawning appears the twilight, so he is immersing himself there before the sunrise; before the rising, before the resurrection, you penetrate in the twilight. Jesus said that because he was dying on the Mount of the Skull, Golgotha, in Hebrew, which relates to the head as well, in order to perform the resurrection.
You can also find this explanation in other sources by people who speak Mayan where other authors explain that these were Mayan words; the only Hebrew in "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani" that we understand are "Eli, Eli," which we know means "My God, my God," and that is why the Hebrew disciples of Master Jesus, when they heard "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani" they didn't understand the two following words, but then they assumed the rest, because also they relate to the words that the initiate pronounce, namely, "Father, Father why are you forsaking me," or "My God, why are you forsaking me?" But other said that he said "look he is calling Elijah," which is El –i-a-o, and that is precisely the interpretation they give, right? Nevertheless, when you know Kabbalah and Alchemy you understand what is written there and what is the symbol of that, in relation with initiation. So the whole path is precisely a battle between the heavenly cult and the Satanic cult within you; this is not outside of you, but, it is inside of you.
There are many people that in this day and age are so worried about cults, but listen, everybody in this world is performing a worship, a cultivation, a cult, not necessarily a religious cult. There are people for instance that worship the cult of evolution, a dogma created by Darwin. That is a cult related to Jezebel. Some people who follow religious cults pronounce themselves against other religious cults. Atheism is a cult. Intellectualism is a cult. So, you do not need to be religious in order to be in a cult. If you are asleep, if you are doing things without remembering God, you are in a cult to Satan, to Jezebel, to your animal elements, simple as that. It is not a matter of belonging to this or that group. Of course there are other types of cults where people not only cultivate their defects, vices, or errors, but they also cultivate personalities; that is worse. People are cultivating their inner Satan, their animality, and then start worshipping personalities. Master Samael Aun Weor annihilated his personality and said "the personality is lunar, mechanical, so I annihilated the personality." But in this day and age, there are many people, even Gnostics, that worship personalities. To respect the personalities that came and taught Gnosis is good; we have to respect our neighbor. But there are some Gnostics that are very fanatic and become very angry when somebody talks against this or that personality, because they are identified: they worship that personality.
I remember when I was teaching in the north of Mexico, we were advertising everywhere in order to bring people to a lecture that the Master Samael Aun Weor was going to give. And of course a great criticism against the Gnostics appeared in the newspaper, they were accusing Gnosis of being a cult, and I understood that it is a cult, but a heavenly cult, not in the fanatic sense that they see as being evil or Satanic cult. It would be worse if you don't apply the doctrine, right? But how do I explain that to people? So I brought the article to the Master and he read it, "Oh," he said, "It's ok, it's a propaganda for us, let it be." So he was saying "Don't worry about it, why identify with that?” He said, “Don't feed your Gnostic ego; even if they talk against me, so what? I am nothing, I am not more or less because the people are talking against me, you know that." He wrote that many times in his books. So if he is not worried about his personality, why should I to worry about it? But fanatic people do. They worry about the personalities and defend their concepts about Gnosis, yet, the Master said, "Gnosis doesn't need to be defended, because Gnosis is not a financial company, it is a doctrine. The doctrine defends itself if you study it." We do not need to defend anything. Yet, if you want to explain matters because they are attacking Gnosis, well do it, defend it with knowledge, and explain what Gnosis is. But to become a fanatic and to defend this personality or that personality doesn't change anything.
Let's say that you are very faithful to this or that personality. So? Despite that, you have Jezebel inside of you, your Baalim inside of you, and the day of the Lord is still not in you. So? Keep doing your work. So that is why when we hear about criticisms or rumors, we say "Ok, so they are doing that, what can we do?" If God, their own El-i-a-o, doesn't stop them, why should we stop them? Who are we? We have to stop ourselves.
You see, we have the ego, all of us have ego, thus we tend to transform the heavenly cult into satanic cult because we are 97% ego and 3% free consciousness. In other words when you come here you start doing a heavenly cult to a maximum of 3%, and satanic cult at least 97%, so you have to fight against Jezebel, Jezebel says "Ha ha, I am 97% stronger than you," and you say "Ok it is true but I am going to develop my own Elijah and you will see," thus, with faith you develop your own Elijah until you slaughter all of those prophets in the Mount of Yesod, thus, this is how you have to do it, everyday, not only one day.
Audience: Is the trial of Job associated with "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani"?
Instructor: Well, yes, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani" is related with Job, which is the eight years of ordeals in which the initiate is tested in order to finally reach the resurrection, and of course he is working with the cross, and everybody is despising him, criticizing him, because he is doing the work with the cross, the masculine beam and the feminine beam of the cross, the sexual transmutation, working with the energies of God. And everybody says, "if he really is the Son of God, let him come down from the Cross," in other words, abandon that path and do the work that we like without that chastity. But Jesus continued doing the work on the cross and he dies there, despite all the spits, criticisms, and the vinegar that they give him to drink; thus the only thing that he can say is - because he is doing the work and he is doing his transformation - "well, they don't understand, so Father forgive them because they do not understand, I taught them but they do not listen," right? and the same thing with all the initiates, so we need to learn how to listen; Read that lecture of the Master, to learn how to listen in order to know the path, because it is inside, and do not get identified with the outside world, because everything is inside.
Audience: Can you give an explanation about how the Holy Spirit becomes a revolution through the forces of sex?
Instructor: In simple terms we have the three brains, intellectual brain, emotional brain, and sexual brain. So the body creates the sexual energy with the blood, and what we think, what we eat, what we breathe, the breath of God enters through the nose which is Aleph. This is the breath of God that you read in Genesis: "and God breatheth into the nostrils of Adam and Adam became a living soul," so that breath is the oxygen that goes into the lungs, the lungs have the work of purifying the blood which is impure and the organ that pumps the blood is the heart, it takes the impure blood, pump it into the lungs and the lungs purify it and return it into the heart. That purified blood goes into the sexual organs and becomes the creative energy. Now in the heart we have the Lord, the Christ, in the head we have the breath, this is why we have three witnesses in heaven, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and three witnesses in the physicality. The three witnesses in the physicality are the breath that enters into the nose, this is the first witness which is the Father. The blood which is “Dam” in Hebrew unites with the breath which is Aleph, thus making the word Adam, so the purified blood is the second witness. And the third witness is in the sex which is the semen, which is the outcome of all the transformation and that is why it is written that the seed is Christ, that the seed is the Holy Spirit, the creative energy, or the creator of Life. So the three witnesses in heaven are the Cosmic Christ, this is why we call them Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, three forces in one God, one Cosmic force, divided in three within us. So the work starts by stopping the animal behavior in us because Satan, which is below here in the liver, and in the sex, and in the spleen, works with these three primary forces for the mechanicity of nature, reproduction, for the satisfaction of desires. Here is where we have the desires, in this area, animal appetites, so we have to renounce them in order for the Lord to be born in us, because remember that the Lord, Christ, the Sun, is being born as Fire within us from the virgin Mary. Mary, the Mother of Jesus, is the Matter Goddess of the world, Matter even in Latin means Mother, which is the physical body of each one of us. The physical body of each one of us when we are applying to it the animal elements, the physical body is a whore, is the body of Jezebel. But when we repent like Mary Magdalene, that she repent from her sins, then our matter becomes a virgin, the physical body transforms into a virgin, into a chaste matter. And from that chaste matter, which is the letter “Hei” in Hebrew, the Nukva - this is how it is also called - Jesus is born by the Grace and the power of the Holy Spirit, which is the sexual force. The white dove of the Holy Spirit fecundating Mary, is that solar fire, that is the symbol, in us, this is how we start working ourselves when being chaste. That is becoming a true Christian, a true worshipper of the Lord and not of Belial, because there are many people that think that they are worshipping the Lord, meanwhile they are worshipping Belial, Bael, which are in Klipoth, they represent the forces of fornication. Sadly, many people think that they are going to go to heaven with all of that garbage that Jezebel owns within them, no, we have to clean our Temple, this is what Jesus taught, he took the whip and throw all the merchants of the temple out. The temple is our body, the whip is Willpower, this is how Jesus enters into Jerusalem, riding the donkey, the people worship the donkey. We have to ride on the donkey, you see that, if you study the Bible from that point of view, you will see always the two cults, Satan and God within you, in different stories, i.e. as we explained in other lectures about Moses and the Pharoah, etc.
