2012 and Beyond -
Part IV: I Am that I Am
The mystery of the pentagrammaton or five letter Name.
The work in the coming paragraphs should not be read lightly. It
should be studied and worked with. The unraveling of various
secrets requires a certain amount of Divine, spiritual, and
physical knowledge. If you have trouble understanding any aspect
of this sacred wisdom, do not dismiss it, simply put it aside for
later study, or move for example in this case to the next
paragraph. Eventually it will become clear.
 Working with "Lumen de Lumine",
"I Am, I Am" or "Ieschoua" will bring the beneficial energy
of the Star of Great Light in our life. Working with these sacred
words of power will
cause that soul fire of mystery to transmute your mental and
physical consciousness and bring you into closer and more perfect
union with the Godhead, for into that Oneness and perfection in
God, out of his own image, you are created and destined.
Now let's delve a little deeper into why working with the "I Am, I
Am" or the "Ieschoua" energy found on the
Sounds of the Ether CD,
is particularly relevant to the time ahead. All of humanity
operates upon the basic formula of creation, Yod Heh Vav Heh,
meaning, fire, water, air, and earth. Yod Heh Vav Heh refers not
simply to the Jehovah of the old testament, but also to the basic
forces in action of the Ain Soph, the Infinite. This is the
pathway, or method of evolution, by which average men slowly
progress from human to divine. The elect of light, however, take
another path, which is represented by the formula, Yod Heh Shin
Vav Heh. The pentagram, symbolic of Ieschoua, is formed by the
Hebrew letters of the Tetragrammaton, the four letters signifying
material creation, interjected by the holy letter, Shin. The holy
letter Shin is a symbol of the Holy Spirit known as Ruach Elohim.
This name Yod Heh Shin Vav Heh or the spelling IHShVH which is the
spiritual spelling of the name, Yeheshuah, or Jesus, gives the
formula by which the agent of light performs the great work of
spiritual fusion. Fusion, reconciliation, and union are the keys
to countering the effects of the Fall of Man so that we may
experience reintegration. Now Yod He Vav He represent Adam Kadmon,
man in his integral synthesis, representing a fruitful union of
the Universal Spirit and the Universal Soul. To divide that word
is to suggest a disintegration of its unity. The letter Shin,
Arcanum 21 or 0 in the Tarot, reunites the two fragments,
representing the generative and subtle fire, the vehicle for
non-differentiated life.
Moreover, it signifies the Universal Plastic Mediator whose charge
is to bring about incarnations that allow the spirit to descend
into matter. The letter Shin, then, in its role as a sort of
hyphen between the other parts of the mutilated tetragram, becomes
a symbol of both fragmentation and fixation. Finally, Shin also
begets the quinary, or number of destruction, when added to the
verbal quaternary in the way we have just said. In this respect,
Shin is the Word, or Logos, the Yod He Vav He that incarnates and
becomes the suffering Christ, or corporeal man, until such time
when he enters into his glory assuring his regenerated human
nature.
In other words, Shin is given the attribution of fire, and by
another mathematical process, it becomes the symbol of the Holy
Spirit. Tradition sponsors the insertion of this letter into the
the middle of the four-letter Name, splitting it apart, thus
forming Yod He Shin Vav He, the pentagrammaton or five - letter
name. This combination of letters represents the illumination of
the elemental or present man by the descent and impact of the holy
spirit. As thus formed the name represents the God-Man, symbolized
in Christianity by the Christ descending on the man Jesus. The
Chief of all agents of light, The Christ, was the combination of
all the specialized perfections of the divine agents, of the
ancient alliance, into one. He bestowed the touch of perfect unity
that opened a new door and destroyed the number of the slavery of
humanity. This Chief Agent of all, this savior of the world and
universal regenerator, turned man's attention to the primitive
truth that allows him to preserve his existence and recover his
former dignity. In the condition of his degradation, he laid the
foundation of human redemption. Jesus, in this symbolism,
represents the natural man who, by devotion and meditation and the
theurgic process, opened his human nature to the brilliant descent
of the light. It is the enlightenment that all men are destined to
enjoy at some far distant time in human evolution. it is this that
separates animal man from the God-man, the goal of all mysticism.
All mystical techniques, including those of the Kabbalah,
represent a method of hastening the slow tedious process of human
evolution so that the states of consciousness that we are told
will ultimately occur routinely in mankind may dawn today.
