the sum total of truth

 

all of our reality is based on previous realities, as one scientist said on the documentary “what the bleep do we know,” society always functions under unconcoius premises, for example, it was a premise for a long time, the world is flat; these premises are not great news, they are simply as real as the sky you see – however these premises alter the very discussion, for they are the absolute truth in peoples heads – Lets analyze these premises in a straightforward way – in the beginning Adam has a premise – he knew God; in fact it says his wisdom was so great that he could discern anything, but that was the problem, for he knew his greatness (though in fact greatness is a relative term, so he was wiser than the angels) this knowledge of self, cues the desires of all that the self imagines; hence he couldn’t withhold of not eating two apples for four hours – a bit pathetic – Adam went into a self imposed exile (he separated from his wife for 130 years) As time progressed, people aware of the cosmic angelic forces decided that serving the angels would be the will of the creator – devoid of truth they creates temples (many of the ruins still around today) in which they worshiped different, essentially, forces of nature (though they ascribed a conscious angelic being behind those forces hence sacrifice to the force gains its allegiance) Eventually this premise causes a cosmic shift in human behavior, for if I can sacrifice to a force and I will get my desires (people going so far as sacrificing their children for all the force seeks is your humble servitude), then the rule of God’s morality, to not kill, steal, rape doesn’t matter. – Abraham introduces that all these forces have a cosmic one, they are merely nothing in the hand of the cosmic one – momentarily he brings humanity to their senses and their duty to praise the esoteric force for their good and respect his wishes for decency – but the story of man is much deeper than conceptional reality – you see, in man’s heart lies the very demon and hence the need is to eliminate his own desire for these demonic desires – hence begins the most fascinating saga of one nation chosen by God to bring truth to the world – in the ancient times, Egypt was a debased and cruel superpower (as they always tended to be, for the nature of power is its increased barbarism due to its opportunity). To crush this notion, God had them enslave the Jews who were then told through a representative to request something, no slave ever dared to request – freedom of conceince – Pharaoh stubbornly refused, assuming power is the might, and was bitterly subdued – this effect of eradicating the demon of power within man (though humbled not fully gone) was stage one – as the Jews entered into Israel, we find a tenuous relationship with man’s own premise – Do we subdue every fiber of self to the Divine, or do we fulfill our sexual predilections – in fact, as our sages teach, idolatry makes no sense, unless it is a license to immorality (for as mentioned, idols don’t care about your sexual orientation as long as you sacrifice to them, the thinking goes). When God robbed them of their land, their pride, and made them face extinction in their exile (the Purim story) their hearts repented – they returned to God – amazingly this persists to this very day – for we find they had come back to Jerusalem and never again in mass, abandoned the Jewish way – however lurking even deeper than the overt desire for power, the overt sexual desire, is a covert demon – and this is the sense of “I” – this very structure, so basic to the human existence, the foundation upon which all subsequent desires are built (namely to fulfill my desire) needs to be annihilated to allow the truth, goodness and kindness to permeate – and hence we find the two thousand years of redemption begins – you see, the first two thousand years are called creation (or chaos) representing the building of man’s ego – the second two thousand years are called the two thousand years of Torah representing the civilizing of man – and the last two thousand years are called the two thousand years of redemption, a complex process whereby the very identity of man is shattered and in its vacuum, in it self repression a new Divine self – a Being in who the Divine voice is as home or more importantly manifests as his identity, emerges.
