THE FAIREST THING YOU CAN EXPERIENCE IS THE

MYSTERIOUS. IT IS THE FUNDAMENTAL EMOTION WHICH STANDS AT THE CRADLE OF TRUE ART AND TRUE SCIENCE–AND TRUTH ITSELF. AND YET, MYSTERY IS ONLY MYSTERY UNTIL REVEALED. MYSTICISM SHALL ALWAYS REMAIN MYSTIC BECAUSE IT IS CONJURED BY HU-MAN AND NEVER INTENDED TO BE REVEALED–ITS ENTIRE FOUNDATION OF "BEING" REQUIRES THAT IT NEVER HAVE REASON OR UNVEILING.

Remember, Dharma, that the eye of prudence may never shut for a dram of discretion is worth a pound of wisdom if taken out of proper sequence. Further, if you think twice before you speak once, you will speak twice the better for it and if you want the rose you must folly respect the thorn which abides with the rose. But you must keep always in the top of your listing of actions that the prudent man does himself good, the virtuous one does it to other men. In so doing all within wisdom it will become clear that if you never exceed your rights, they will soon become unlimited. Be ever alert to the "small" things for, if you seem to be out of trouble, watch for danger. When you live well, then consider the most, your life, lest ruin

take it unawares.

One of the most important of Creation's Natural laws is that all life is

equal. That's a fact which must be acknowledged before man can expect

to find balance and growth in any enlightened community. You have to

respect life–all life, not just your own. The key word is "respect". Unless

you respect the earth, you destroy it. Unless you respect all life as much

as your own life, you become a destroyer, a murderer. Know too, that

there is great difference in "respect" and "worship". Respect gives

retention of control and power unto the giver–worship gives all control

and power unto the worshiped. Responsibility is the "key "–all must

respect ALL if "self" is to flourish in wisdom among the higher

brotherhood of human.

CELESTIAL SWORD

This is the description often attached to Halley's Comet. In another instance, the comparison by Josephus of the Comet to a celestial sword, as it is also depicted in the Bayeux tapestry, has led

some scholars to suggest that the Angel of the Lord that King David saw "standing between the earth and heaven, having a sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem" (I Chronicles 21: 16–for

you inquiring minds) might have been in reality Halley's Comet, sent by the Lord to punish the king for having conducted a prohibited census. The time of this incident, circa 1000 B.C., certainly

coincides with one of the years in which Halley's Comet should have appeared.

In an article published in your year 1986 by Zecharia Sitchin, he pointed out that the Hebrew name for "comet" is Kokhave shavit a "Scepter star". This has a direct bearing on the biblical tale of the

seer Bilam. When the Israelites ended their wanderings in the desert after the Exodus and began the conquest of Canaan, the Moabite king summoned Bilam to curse the Israelites. But Bilam, realizing that the Israelite advance was divinely ordained, blessed them instead. He did so, he explained (Numbers 24:17), because he was shown a celestial vision:

I see it, though not now;

I behold, though it is not near:

A star of Jacob did course,

A scepter of Israel did arise.

Mr. Sitchin has provided you with a chronology that fixed the date of the "Exodus" at 1433 B.C.; the Israelite entry into Canaan began forty years later, in 1393 B.C. Halley's Comet, at an interval of

76 or 77 years, would have appeared circa 1390 B.C. Did Bilam consider that event as a divine signal that the Israelite (as they are NOW called) advance could not and should not be stopped? If,

in biblical times, the comet called Halley's was considered the Scepter Star of "Israel" (israel–God's chosen), it could explain why the Jewish revolts of 164 B.C. and A.D. 66 were timed to coincide

with the comet's appearances. [Or, could it have been OTHER more important coincidences? and not, after all, the "Sword Comet"!]

I wonder how many of you realize that the “cup” and not the “cross” was the greatest symbol of Christendom?

Do you realize it was Peter and not Paul who kept the “Master's” work and word going? The Golden Sun Disc (Aton) was the symbol of eternal God.

The CUP was the beloved symbol let by the "Teacher" as reminders to His people. The cup in point is of “clay”, Mark was asked, and did so, to bring to the Teacher a cup of simple clay for his last sup with His people–to remind them of humility and that it is the “fruit” and not the things of physical (silver cups) which is in point. The clay cup discovered within the Chalice of Antioch found later was not the original used by Esu.

Mark took the cup from where it rested and returned it to his mother, to whom it belonged–as second-best table equipment, Silver was the best and Mark's mother was a wealthy widow so the act was one of intent, not accident. The intent was to use that which was of “earth” substance of which all things are created. The Cup, itself, represents spiritual truth or truth of faith.

Something strange happened to that cup, however. Mark noted that in the dimly lit room where the cups were placed–this one glowed. Therefore he took it to his room and put it away for safe keeping. He kept it for some fourteen years–showing it periodically as ones would gather.

The Cup became recognized as the Chalice of Antioch but this was not so. The cup was taken to Antioch by Barnabas and Paul (who had by now worked his way within the group of friends).

The Chalice was mode of silver and "contained" a cup of clay of the same size.

Peter carried with him the cup he had used himself at the Last Gathering. This he gave to Linus, the Greek artist who fashioned the magnificent chalice that held the humble clay cup. The clay cup was replaced by the silver cup of Peter.

The point is not very big but the concept is most important for I am asked about the "Places of the Lion" and you ones seem to know very little about that which I speak. The stories are all entangled with Linus, Solomon, Rahotep, , Akhnaton and Peter–who were all considered and identified in the underground circles as "Lions" and the "Lion-throne".

The point is that in the worship of "things" you are going to be most often misled. The Chalice of Antioch, for instance, is authentic in that it ONCE HELD the cup in point, but it no longer holds that Cup any more than the Glastonbury Chalice holds it! Therefore, ye who would worship and do reverence at the altars of decoration and ritual are very likely worshiping a replica–an idol of some sort, if you will.

THE THINGS OF GOD ARE WITHIN THE HEART AND THE SOUL IS THE "CUP" OF GOD OF ETERNAL LIFE TO BE REFILLED UPON PETITION. AH, INDEED, ‘TIS THE CUP AND NOT THE CROSS UNTO WHICH YOU MUST TURN THAT YOUR CUP MIGHT BE FILLED TO OVERFLOW.
