Les hommes veulent aller vers Dieu, mais aller vers Dieu, c'est la mort

Les hommes veulent aller vers Dieu, mais aller vers Dieu, c'est la mort : tu disparais dans le néant. Si demain Dieu descendait sur la terre, il n'y aurait plus de terre, il n'y aurait plus rien. On parle du Père créateur, mais le Père n'a jamais créé le monde, c'est la Mère qui l'a fait. Tout cela est un seul corps, le corps de la Mère dont les hommes font partie intégrante. Et ce corps est parfait : « Dieu vit tout ce qu'il avait fait : cela était très bon. » (Genèse 1:31) Et la perfection de tout cela est que dans la non-existence nous pouvons remonter vers l'existence, vers l'immortalité.

"If your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light".

"Just as we possess sense organs, enabling us to make contact with

the physical world, so too we possess subtle organs and centres,

enabling us to make contact with the spiritual world. These

centres, which have different names depending on the tradition,

are like antennae connecting us to heavenly entities.

When Jesus said, ‘If your eye is healthy, your whole body will

be full of light’, he was referring to one of these centres. From

the point of view of physiology, it is absurd to say that the

state of the body depends on the state of the eyes, and anyway

Jesus was speaking not of our eyes but of one eye. This eye, upon

which the whole body depends, is the centre through which heaven

touches the earth within us. And this eye not only sees but can

also understand, feel and even act, for it contains all the other

organs’ possibilities in potential."

The Night Will Shine

There will come a time when the wolf will lie with the lamb, when the night will shine, when those who have died shall live.

But the wolf will be a wolf, the night will still be night, and the experience of death shall remain the opposite of life.

For all these God made for His glory.

The Mandate of Darkness

As impossible as it sounds, as absurd as it may seem: The mandate of darkness is to become light; the mandate of a busy, messy world is to find oneness.

We have proof: for the greater the darkness becomes, the greater the confusion of life, the deeper our souls reach inward to discover their own light.

How could it be that darkness leads us to find a deeper light? That confusion leads us to find a deeper truth?

Only because the very act of existence is set to know its own author. That is the cosmic drama, its theme and its plot: That otherness should come to know oneness.

And we are the players in that drama.

T.Freeman

Getting to Godliness

Deep in meditation, quarrying the strata of the secret wisdom, stripping away layer beneath layer of the hardened sediment draped over truth, the mind’s eye attains perception of the light.

That is not yet Godliness.

Immersed in received knowledge of the higher realms, secluded from the confusion of humankind and earthly pleasures, there comes a day the prophet hears with his ears the voice that brings all into being; he sees with his eyes the splendor of that light.

That is not yet Godliness.

Arriving in the ancient Temple of Solomon, each person, great or small, saw the light with such clarity that all sense of being was lost, nothing existed other than the singularity of the Infinite Light that shone openly in that place.

Yet, still, that is not yet Godliness.

In a time to come, when the fruits of all our labor will blossom and the world will attain its state for which it was created, when "I will pour out My spirit upon all flesh and your sons and daughters shall prophecy," then every small child will see more than the greatest prophet has ever seen, "and all flesh shall see"—the physical eye will perceive an unbounded divine light that has never before been revealed, the very stones of the earth will scream out, "There is nothing else but He!" in every corner of the world, even within its inert matter, "for all the earth shall be filled with the knowing of God, as waters fill the ocean basin."

There will be a world, and the world will know that it is nothing but a manifestation of the Infinite Light.

That will be Godliness.

T. Freeman

Reinterpreting the Stone

How could a human ego know it is nothing but a figment of a Supernal Mind, and yet remain a human being?

How could a finite, physical eye perceive infinite, Godly light and yet remain an eye?

How could a stone scream out that there is nothing else but God and yet remain a stone?

It must be that the ego is not the ego we imagine it to be; that the physical is not the physicality we imagine it to be; that existence is not the absoluteness of being we assume when we speak of existence.

It must be that the true reality of all these things is a deeper meaning, the purpose for which they emerged into being; that the underlying condition that allows anything the privilege of existence is to know the divine.

The ego, the eye, the very physicality of the world—we have misinterpreted all of them. They are all nothing but instruments by which God’s oneness can be known.

Anything you do solely for your personal satisfaction cannot be lasting.

 "Anything you do solely for your personal satisfaction cannot be
lasting. You may get what you want, but it will eventually
rebound on you. You think you are grasping it securely, and then
it escapes. You thought it was gold, and now it has turned to
lead. Cosmic Intelligence wants to teach humans and so does not
allow them to succeed in their selfish endeavours. So why, you
will say, does it allow them a modicum of success if they are
soon to lose what they have acquired? Because it wants them to
really ponder the lesson and understand what is worth seeking,
what is worth working at.
And what is worth working at is the idea of universal
brotherhood. If you love this idea, if you are faithful to it and
nourish it and focus all your willpower on achieving it, being
true gold it will fulfil your heart and soul forever."

Heaven and hell are two forms of life found within ourselves.

"Before being regions of the invisible world as described by

religion, heaven and hell are two forms of life found within

ourselves. The life of hell is dark, murky; symbolically, it is

the life of the digestive tract, the stomach and the sexual

organs. The life of heaven is subtle, pure, filled with light;

symbolically, it is the life of the lungs, the heart and the

brain.

The heaven and hell within us are separated by the diaphragm,

but the structure of our body tells us they must work together.

Only, we should always ensure that the upper part controls the

lower, that our consciousness sets up home in the upper part.

Then hell will provide the materials, the brute force, which

heaven will command and make prolific. So, strive to live in your

heaven, and from there learn to command the forces of your hell.

The story goes:

"The story goes that an elderly woman was so afraid of burglars

she decided to put a certain sum of money aside in case they

visited: that way she was bound not to be mistreated. Of course,

eventually a burglar came, and the woman said, ‘Ah! There you

are! I’ve been waiting for you. I have something ready for you…’

Astounded by the welcome, the burglar went away very happy, as

you can imagine. As for her, she did not know that by expecting a

burglar she had attracted one.

There are not many people, you will be thinking, who have the

bizarre idea of putting money aside in case of a burglary. Yes,

no doubt, but on the other hand many save for a rainy day. And

that comes down to the same thing, for they are summoning the

rainy days. This is magic – unconsciously they are doing a kind

of black magic. So, never say you are saving for a rainy day,

because you are attracting it. Save for a sunny day instead. This

way, when the princess appears, you will have the money to marry

her. Obviously, the princess is symbolic. The princess coming

represents all the wonderful opportunities that can present

themselves in life. It is useful to have money to take advantage

of these opportunities."

Aucun être ne peut agir en dehors des lois

Aucun être ne peut agir en dehors des lois : même les démons, les forces sombres, respectent les lois. Ils agissent parce qu'il y a des lois qui leur permettent d'agir. Ils ont donc la bénédiction, sinon ils ne pourraient rien faire. Personne ne peut s'opposer à la Divinité. S'il y a le mal, c'est que, quelque part, le mal est autorisé par cette Divinité, parce que c'est une chute, parce que nous ne sommes pas dans l'existence divine. Nous sommes dans une existence non divine. L'existence divine est au-delà. En elle, il ne peut y avoir ni mal ni opposition, tout y est parfait, tout y est en ordre.

Le bas et le haut, le grossier et le subtil, le mortel et l'immortel

Le bas et le haut, le grossier et le subtil, le mortel et l'immortel : il y a réellement deux mondes et ceux-ci sont séparés. Si tu veux t'approcher du monde divin, tu dois séparer ces mondes en toi, ne pas les mélanger : d'un côté ce qui est mortel, de l'autre, ce qui est immortel. Si tu n'as pas séparé en toi ce qui est immortel de ce qui est mortel, tu n'entreras pas dans l'immortalité.

O.Manitara

Anesthetized

God saw the fire and the ice, the storm and the narrow straits that plague our final journey, and He knew that no soul could bear such pain.

So He anesthetized our souls. Our love and fear, our sensitivity to anything Godly—all that was put to sleep. Only the very core, our essential connection to Above, was left intact.

There is a positive side to this frozen state: The deepest wonders are open to us. Wonders that souls of an earlier generation would never have been able to approach out of awe and inspiration.

At the core of the wisdom of Torah lies an unbearable fire. We can walk through it now, without even knowing its heat.

‘Be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.’

"The busyness of the bee and the ant, the piercing gaze of the

eagle, the regal demeanour of the lion, the patience of the ox,

the strength and memory of the elephant, the loyalty of the dog –

the list of qualities that animals have come to symbolize could

go on and on.

Animals are God’s creatures just as humans are and also have

things to teach us, and it is not without reason that some

animals have been elevated to the rank of divinities in certain

religions. Animals do possess particular characteristics,

character traits, which can find an echo in humans, awakening

beneficial qualities in them. And Jesus, who said, ‘Be perfect as

your heavenly Father is perfect’ also said, ‘Be wise as serpents

and innocent as doves.’ "

The opinions, beliefs and viewpoints that parents endeavour to pass on to their children are not always the best

"The opinions, beliefs and viewpoints that parents endeavour to

pass on to their children are not always the best, I agree. But

when children criticize their parents and behave in a harsh and

insolent manner, is that a good attitude to have? No, it isn’t.

Even if they find out one day that they cannot entirely trust

their parents, it does not give them the right to show contempt.

If they do not follow their parents’ example or continue to

accept their philosophy, that is their right, but they must not

reject them.

And this rule also holds outside the family. Just because your

opinion is different from someone else’s does not give you the

right to reject them – on the contrary. If they are wrong in your

eyes, it is an added reason for being kind and understanding

towards them. But within the family, this rule is a must: even if

they disagree with their parents, children should never stop

respecting and loving them."

"La vérité vous rendra libres"

Le mensonge est la pire chose qui existe, c'est une dégradation, une chute, un asservissement. La vérité, au contraire, est quelque chose qui nous rend libres, comme l'a dit le Christ : « La vérité vous rendra libres. » (Jean 8:32) La vérité est au-dessus de tout. Elle est universelle, elle appartient à ceux qui l'aiment et qui la suivent. La vérité nous libère parce qu'alors nous pouvons reconnaître que nous sommes faibles. Nous pouvons nous débarrasser de notre orgueil et admettre que nous sommes des mendiants, que nous avons peur d'un tas de choses, que nous sommes esclaves de nos pensées et de tout ce monde autour de nous dont nous avons perdu le contrôle.

Human beings should be studied when they are still connected to the cosmic Tree,

"You have just picked a fruit… If you had the equipment for

observing it, you would see it is different from how it was on

the tree, when all the life force coursed through it and it

received sap, to which the whole universe contributed its work.

As soon as you pick it, you cut it off from the cosmic currents.

It is the same with human beings: they should be studied when

they are still connected to the cosmic Tree, whose fruit they

are, because then they are alive, rich and radiant. This is why

science cannot know them – it wants to study humans when they

have been cut or have fallen from the tree of life; it is merely

studying their corpse. You will say, ‘Yes, but at least then you

can dissect them to see what they are made of. Whereas when they

are alive, you can’t.’ Well, precisely; this is proof that you

have to find other ways of studying humans without cutting them

up, so you can study them live and whole. And there are ways!

Once you have them, you will discover all the subtle currents

circulating in humans and connecting them to the whole of the

universe."

Quel est le sens de la vie ? Pourquoi vient-on sur la terre ?

Quel est le sens de la vie ? Pourquoi vient-on sur la terre ? L'essentiel est de se poser des questions, de ne pas être rempli d'orgueil et de suffisance en croyant qu'on a toutes les réponses. Dès l'enfance, on nous modèle avec une éducation où l'on doit avoir les réponses à tout. Pourtant, personne n'a les réponses à tout ; on a tous une partie des réponses. La vie est comme un puzzle : chacun a sa pièce et on s'assemble. Personne n'est indépendant, on a tous besoin les uns des autres, on a tous besoin d'amitié, de solidarité, de soutien mutuel...

A Time of Silence - A parable:

A father answers the questions of his child and they are happy together, in joyful dialogue.

Then the child asks a question, and the father must think deeply -not just for the answer, but to reach to the essence of this answer so he may bring it to the world of his child. For a long while, the father is quiet.

And so, the child becomes anxious and begins to cry. "Father, where are you? Why do you no longer talk to me? Why have you deserted me for your own thoughts?"

And then the father begins to speak, but this time it is the deepest core of his mind that flows into the mind and heart of the child. Such a flow that with this the child, too, may become a father.

The child is us. The time of silence is now.

When the spirit of Man is dark, when the flow gates of Above seem all but sealed, prepare for liberation.

The Journey Home

Afterlife is a very rational, natural consequence of the order of things. After all, nothing is ever lost --even the body only transforms into earth. But nothing is lost.

The person you are is also never lost. It only returns to its source.

If your soul became attached to the material world during its stay here, then it must painfully rip itself away to make the journey back. But if it was only a traveler, connected to its source all along, then its ride home is heavenly.

How could it be that darkness leads us to find a deeper light? That confusion leads us to find a deeper truth?

Perpetual Freedom

No man can say he is free today because yesterday he was granted freedom.

Freedom is a source of endless energy. Freedom is the power behind this entire universe. Freedom is the force that brings existence out of the void.

Earned Living

All that can be cherished from this world,

All that makes life worth living,

Is that which is mined from its bowels through your own toil,

Fashioned from its clay by your own craft,

Fired in the kiln of your own heart.

That for which you bruised your hands and wearied your limbs,

For which you beat back the beast inside you,

For which you defied the entire world

The trophies that awaited you at the summit of your most grueling climb.

Oh, how precious, how resplendent a feast, how spectacular a monument,

The life forged with the tools of its own master!

Moralists have heaped so much criticism on women!

"Moralists have heaped so much criticism on women! Among the main

reproaches made is their wish to be beautiful. And yet, it is not

a crime; on the contrary. If women did not seek beauty, they

would have brought generations of terribly ugly children into the

world. It is the mother who passes beauty on to her children; she

is the one who shapes them. This is why, throughout the time she

is carrying them, she must wish for beauty for them. All those

moralists who have condemned a woman’s wish to be beautiful have

not understood that it is the task of a woman, of a mother, to

bring beauty to the earth. Men do not think much about

cultivating beauty – they have other concerns. So if women didn’t

think about it!…

Women are right, therefore, to seek beauty, so that they can

pass it on to their children. They should understand, however,

where and how to look for true beauty, spiritual beauty, so that

one day they may bring heaven down to earth through their

children."

Voici un exercice : en expirant l’air, pensez que vous arrivez à

vous étendre jusqu’à toucher les confins de l’univers… Puis, en

inspirant, sentez que vous revenez vers vous, vers votre ego qui

est comme un point imperceptible, le centre d’un cercle infini.

De nouveau, vous vous dilatez, de nouveau vous revenez vers le

centre… Vous découvrirez ainsi ce mouvement de flux et de reflux

qui est la clé de tous les rythmes de l’univers. En vous

efforçant de rendre conscient en vous ce mouvement de flux et de

Quand il arrive à se poser sur l'eau, il a réussi et peut commencer à goûter le monde de l'air, frais et doux, la subtilité, la chaleur, les couleurs, les rayons du Soleil. Il est au-dessus de l'eau, il a émergé d'un monde. Puis il s'ouvre, et c'est la splendeur, la magnificence ; il est comme un Dieu. Il est dans la lumière, conscient que sa vie est très courte.

You will no longer be subject to circumstances, because you will

beings and things elude you; you are at the mercy of events.
Do you know how long your loved one will stay with you? No,
perhaps one day he or she will leave. So, try to raise your
consciousness to the higher realms, where circumstances have no
power over you, where the sun of love never sets. Leap into the
light of this eternal sun. While those you love abide within you,

away the peace of your soul for nothing, and then when you want

to stand before the Lord you do not have the right inner

expression. Sometimes, you also lend your heart and mind to

dubious activities: what good does that do you? But there is a

hierarchy of values in nature, and from now on you must

distinguish what is essential from what is unimportant. This is

how you will come into possession of your true riches.

In the Gospels we are shown that Jesus possessed this knowledge.

Having fasted for forty days in the desert, he was tempted by the

devil. ‘You are hungry’, Satan said to him. ‘Why do you not

change these stones into bread?… Throw yourself down from the top

of the temple; God will send angels to protect you… See all these

kingdoms: if you bow down before me, I will give them to you…’

In time, religions tend to become materialistic

"In time, religions tend to become materialistic: they give

increasing importance to form, and the spirit which once animated

them is eventually lost. Of course, humans are not ready to live

solely in the spirit, in principles; they need to rely on

material forms. But God has not given eternity to form. After a

while, each form becomes old and must be replaced.

Forms are always necessary, in any realm, but they cannot be

made to last indefinitely. This is why heaven periodically sends

initiates, sages, great Masters, to change the religious forms,

but only the forms, never the principles. The principles are

unchanging and are the same in all of humanity’s great religions:

love, wisdom, truth, freedom, sacrifice. Such principles are

unchanging and apply for all eternity."

C'est à elle de s'activer pour s'élancer vers lui, mais si elle ne s'élance pas, jamais elle ne comprendra ce que le Soleil a voulu lui dire alors qu'elle était enfermée en elle-même, emprisonnée dans l'ignorance. Il faut une grande confiance en ses propres perceptions pour accepter de sortir dehors, pour voir qui t'a appelé quand tu n'es jamais allé dehors, quand tu ne sais pas ce que c'est.

The times our generation lives in are not ordinary times. We dwell on the interface between two worlds—a world as it was and a world as it is meant to be.

We know a world in the process of becoming. Soon will be a world where each thing has arrived. Arrived at the Essence of All Things
