Ask most people living in American Society if they would rather BE rich or APPEAR rich and if they are honest, they will admit they want to appear rich. That is why people go out and finance cars they cannot afford. I live in a shitty apartment complex. Some of the cars that are parked here make no logical sense to me considering where these people are living.

People care more about what people think about them than actaully living a life that is fulfilling to their souls. This is what Church has become also in our society. Much less so in Orthodox Christianity which hasn’t been tainted to the same extent as Catholicism and Christianity. South of the American border, Catholicism still means something different to people.

If you ask a señorita if she is Christian and she is Catholic, she will tell you, “No, I am Catholic.” Catholicism still means a connection with the Mother down there. Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe or La Virgen.

So in America people carry Bibles to church they never read until someone in a pulpit tells them to turn to a page, which they do vigourously in case anyone else in the congregation is watching to see if they do.

I go to Church by sitting in creeks. I read my Bible every day but not for an audience. For personal spiritual development. I understand the Bible and how to read it at a level few others do and I STILL learn something new about it every time I crack it open.

Yesterday it was about manna. I pondered the question, “What is manna actually representative for in the Bible?” so I looked up the Hebrew word and the meaning. The orignal Hebew word is מָן (pronounced mān). When the Bible was translated into Greek by Hebrew scribes as Northern Africa (Alexandria) began to move toward using Greek rather than Hebrew as a lingua franca, (liturgic language) they used μάννα which added the Greek suffix ‘na’ and it became ‘manna.’

Now the concept here is the Jesus Juice as Michael Jackson put it. It is about kundalini awakening. The entire Bible is a guide to a spiritual awakening because there’s nothing really else worth writing about. Our history prior to 500 years ago has been completely rewritten by the men who conquered the known world. None of anything older than that can truly be known that there aren’t explicit contemperaneous records of, and those are invariably administrative records, because in order to control the populace, that was the one thing that had to be accurate.

Esoteric traditions (such as Kabbalah, Philo of Alexandria, and Gnosticism) view manna as unconditioned Divine Light brought down into material form.

This is exactly the concept Jesus is referring to in The Lord’s Prayer when he says, “Give us this day our daily bread,” and a lot of scholars have made that connection without understanding the meaning of the term at all.

The word translated as “daily” is ἐπιούσιος (epiousios).

This word appears nowhere else in ancient Greek literature prior to the Gospels. Early Christian scholars, like Origen, noted that the Gospel writers (surely being well-educated in Hebrew as well) seemingly invented or adapted the word specifically to capture a concept that standard Greek couldn’t express.

It breaks down esoterically as:

• Epi = “Over”, “Above”, or “Beyond”
• Ousia = “Substance”, “Being”, or “Essence”

Note that he says “this day,” not bread to last the rest of the week, month, year, because that is the concept being illustrated here — we are not to worry about tomorrow, the rest of the week, year, ect. We are to realize that everything we need will be provided for us divinely when we need it.

This is why the Hebrews wandering in the desert (you must go too) could not hoard the manna or it would spoil. Think about all the people living out of fear today trying to hoard manna.

Forty years they wandered right? There’s that number again. It’s symbolic of Venus’ retrograde. It is the same number used in the flood for the same reason. It’s Venus’ descent to the ‘Underworld’ which is the lowest level of Heaven — that which is just below the Moon, where She appears as Lucifer — The Morning Star.

During this loop, Venus passes directly between the Earth and the Sun (inferior conjunction).

“For forty days and for forty nights The Law was on Her side. But who can stand when She’s in demand?”

It is okay because you always come back from the desert. Jesus did. You will too. And the manna will be waiting for you. You must learn how to use the Black Key to achieve the entire goal of all spiritual tradtitions. The Unity of the Trinity. Father-Son-Mother (Ruah in Hebrew, Pneuma to Hagion in Greek) That is what this is about. That is what the entire Bible is about. That is Jesus’ Earthly Kingdom. He does not make a secret the concept he is talking about is WITHIN YOU, its’ just that Religion has purposefully obscured that. Because you cannot govern a man who has true power. Why on Earth would he submit to even a million dead souls who represent Authority?
