Tis the Season to be Jolly!
I had a friend call me up yesterday in a fit.
She had been stirred up by a discussion we had about Jesus.
She was concerned that The Essenes were downplayed in the
World Class Exhibit of the Dead Sea Scrolls at the San Diego
Natural History Museum...extended now through January 6!
There is a history of suppression of information about the Dead
Sea Scrolls. That discussion is all over the web.
My personal experience--and pain--surrounds another body
of information about the Essenes, the Scrolls, and The Essene Lifestyle.
I was involved for more than five years in transcribing reams of audio
cassettes on a valuable body of information that had been created
in workshops. The original intent of the workshops was to disseminate
an Essene School of Thought Library.
A community house was actually created based on the industry
of disseminating this tapes. This summer, during the Great Earth Cleanup
here at the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community, I came upon
original copies of the lists of tapes that were then being circulated.
In my closet, I have the duplication device that was purchased
to make copies of these tapes.
Over the years, the various agreements would change between
the copyright holder--a trance channel--I, the person who had
given considerable time--even years--readying some of this material
for publication.
Some people look at the situation and say, of course, he has
the right to determine what happens with his work. They are into
the letter of the law, just as the Pharisees of old. Then others,
more of mystic bent, get hot under the collar. How can anyone
imagine they can put a copyright on spiritual materials equivalent
to Sacred Scriptures! That would be like, putting a copyright on the
God, and then saying no one had permission to let God's message
go out!
When you look at the historical situation around the Dead Sea
Scrolls, you will find similar "Copyright" issues, although I do
not know if anyone in particular has the hubris to imagine
that they owned they scrolls that truly belong to Humanity;
yet at the exhibit, you will find the original ads in New York papers
that offered some of the original finds of scrolls for sale.
They were bought up secretly by agents of the Israeli government,
or Israeli museums and returned from Arab hands to Israeli hands.
Back to the issue.
Why would anyone want to suppress information about the
Dead Sea Scrolls?
The Scrolls, as best we understand, contain fragments
of almost every chapter of the Bible. They are Unedited versions--
originals. They predate other versions by 1000 years.
Some researches, no doubt, can see the difference in texts
between what the "Common Man" has been believing for
more than 1000 years and these unedited texts.
This I imagine is an embarrassment to some, who would
prefer the Edited Versions stand as the "Word of God."
Among the Jewish people, there is a common understanding
that the Five Books of Moses were written by God.
The Ten Commandments are in these first five books
of Moses.
If you go down to the San Diego Natural History Museum
before January 6, you will see one of the oldest existing
copies of The Ten Commandments under glass.
Who wrote this? Is this copy the original of The Ten Commandments?
Is it a Copy of a Copy?
Some acknowledge the Essenes as Scribes.
Others Scholars and archeologists are now of the understanding
that perhaps Qumran was not a monastery at all.
That is the belief they would like us to have.
How can so many people have so many different ideas
about the same thing??????
That, my friend, as an Essene Minister speaking,
is the Joke of God!
The God I know Plays.
The God I know love Poets.
THe God I know plays with physical Props--
matter--for the purpose of bringing all of creation
together into the Natural State of Peace.
You will find as many ideas about Jesus as there
are people to imagine these ideas.
There are people who look at the history of the
time period when the Romans were dominating the
Palistine Region. The idea of popular uprising was in the air.
The Essenes were a Messianic people.
There rites of purity, their codes of childbirth
and rites that their women followed to give birth,
were based on Messianic Ideals.
Many of the Essene rites, rituals, and daily regimens
for health, filtered into modern day Judaism as well
as Christianity.
I am termporarily out of touch with a lovely book
written by one of the Rosicrusian Order. I recall
it described the Essenes as the root for both
mystical Judaism and the emerging ideas of Christianity.
The Essenes were the core root from where these
branches came.
I attended a gathering of World Class Kabbalists
around this time last year. The gathering was held
in San Diego.
The Modern Kabbalists--both Jews and Christians--
trace the historical roots of Kabbalah to Europe.
I trace them to the Essenes.
We have one tape in the Essene School of Thought
Library--now suppressed by the Copyright holder--
that speaks to the practice of Kabbalah among the
Essenes.
The Tree of Life is the dominant Kabbalistic Metaphor--
i.e., Map of Consciousness.
The Kabbalah is the Science of Life as interpreted
through the Right Brain, in other words, the Intuitive faculty.
Many of these Scrolls, and fragments from the Original
Five Books of Moses--.i.e, "Jewish Bible", Old Testament,
are Kabbalistic documents.
Much of the teachings of Jesus was in metaphor--
garden metaphor is very popular.
A person who not understand these metaphors
until they become literal gardeners again!
That is why I am encouraging everyone to plant
at least one Mini Portable Enchanted Garden.
I once had an orthodox Rabbi come over here.
I was very disturbed that my Jewish friends down
the street at the Synagogue had made their Blessings
on White Bread that personally stirs up my arthritis.
You will also find lots of Coke, the Real Thing,
on their Holy Sabbath Table.
I decided that I would grow the Rabbi a loaf of bread.
I determined to grow wheat.
On the day, the wheat was to be harvested,
I invited the Rabbi, wearing a black suit, to come
over to help me harvest the grains.
He was down on his knees, sitting on the ground
in his black suit. He could not stop talking.
He was like an innocent child. He was a major
scholar of The Five Books of Moses+, and yet
when he harvested wheat for the first time,
he told me he "saw" things, that he had never
previously understood.
We had a sweet friendship. Eventually he
moved to Israel. The Synagogue continues
to feature Challah--white bread--however--
I do believe that the many of the preservatives
are no longer included.
I once had a delightful teacher
at the University for Humanistic Studies,
who is now quite well know from
the What the Bleep film. HIs name is
Fred Alan Wolf. He once won a Book of the Year
award for "Taking the Quantum Leap."
He taught me some of the principles of
Quantum Physic. These principles do not
exactly fit hand and glove with modern
Archeology. Modern Archeology would
like to think of itself as a Pure Science,
I would Imagine.
Quantum Physics, on the other hand,
has principles that say--when a person
looks at something, the very nature of what
they see--can shift.
Metaphysicians say the same thing
in different ways, "As you see it, so it is!"
Fred Alan Wolf studied Kabbalah. He was
a kabbalist by nature. Quantum Physics
is filled with Kabbalistic principles that
blow the whole idea of Pure Science.
Many Scholars imagine they have the Truth.
They are delightful people, very secure in their
understandings, that is, until they meet
another school of thought of other scholars
who have a different point of view.
This again is the Joke of God.
God is a Kabbalist at Heart.
Jesus, from my understanding,
was a Kabbalist. He was raised in the Essene Community
before his other travels to India, Egypt, Persia,
and many other places.
The Mormons--who honor a character named Alma--
base their religion on the understanding that after
Jesus resurrected--he visited the New World.
The name "Alma" has been discovered in one
of the Dead Sea Scrolls now in view at the
San Diego Natural History Museum.
What is physical reality?
Is there only one version of physical reality?
Among us moderns, when we want to know
what is going on inside the body, often
we will go to the Knife. Many of us believe
this is the only way.
Dr. Bernard Jensen believed that the Iris
was the Window to the Soul.
He had the ability to look into the body
through what is now called Iridology.
When we did a session in the Essene School of
Thought on Iridology, I invited some of the
practitioners. Years laster, I met a few of them
who are now reknowned in the field. Both
wanted copies of that session that had been
made many years before. They had found
that the information bore out through their
experience.
The Essenes practiced Iridology.
That is my understanding.
Dr. Bernard Jensen loved the Essenes.
For those, who hold with their belief system
that reincarnation exists, I would say
that Bernard Jensen had lives among the Essene.
His soul is part of Essene Soul Group Activity.
I can sense a past life Essene when I am with them.
Being Your Enchanted Gardener, I am naturally drawn
to many who are in the Essene Soul Group.
Many who read this blog are of the Essene Soul Group.
Curezone is filled with Essenes.
The Essenes lived in such a Way that they could
for the most part live lower on the food scale.
They did not need to eat Cows for protein because
they lived their lives as Lambs of God.
They also had flaws as all humans....They,
as most of us, had a tendency to be addicted
with Hubris. Hubris is Pride. Pride comes
before the Fall. The Romans in that day
helped the Essenes Wise up. They destroyed
what we know today as Qumran. Qumran,
as many of us in the Essene Soul Group,
inherently know, was an Essene Community.
Let those who have ears to hear, hear.
