Bridge Dream Symbolism - for Peachy - Talking with Angels - Gitta Mallasz
Peachy....well!
I keep forgetting to tell you this...
A few nights ago I picked up this amazing book that I've been reading lately (but stopped over Christmas) and what was it talking about?? BRIDGES! And about people 'being the bridge'! eeeek.
The book is "Talking with Angels" and is a book of dialogues that 4 friends had in 1943/1944 in Hungary. (3 ended up in concentration camps and one, non-jew, survived went to France and got the dialogues published in 1976) It is an amazing channeling book - wow.
Anyway...the words are sometimes cryptic/poetic...but here is what I stumbled upon:
*oh as an aside - I never saw your 'bridges' as spanning water. Nope. I saw it as spanning an abyss of air, really.
BRIDGES
Being: "Everything moves, it twists and squirms.
The solid crumbles, the liquid coagulates.
What was certain is no more....terrifying!
A narrow bridge spanning the bottomless abyss...
that is what you are.
Take care of yourselves!
Are you afraid to be the bridge?
The bridge is well-protected,
for it is an absolute necessity."
"O (the hungarian word for the Divine - it has no male or female associations) created you to shine.
But there is a split between you...
(dividing gesture, as though splitting my body in half)
"...and YOU.
I will explain: this split, this dark abyss,
which was...which is...but which shall not be,
is also in you:
CREATED WORLD - AND CREATING WORLD.
BETWEEN THEM: THE ABYSS
Look at yourself: YOU ARE THE BRIDGE.
You cannot wish for creative rays,
you cannot long to be the bridge,
for to be the bridge is GIVEN to you.
The bridge is not wishing - but faith.
What has not been...what is not now...
and yet shall be...is deliverance.
Can money provide deliverance?
Can sacrifice, generosity, good intentions
or philanthropy lead to deliverance?
They all fall into the bottomless pit.
They are cast down and devoured by the depths,
for they are all nothing without the new.
Fathomless depths...in vain do you throw
the old into it, for it will never be filled!"
(note from Gitta: The ironic tone of the angel's voice is clearly telling me that with monetary donations, self-serving 'kindness' and so-called love of our neighbours, we will never be able to purchase peace of soul or deliverance)
"Thanks be given to the infinite wisdom of the Divine
that the small CHILD smilingly crosses over the abyss,
for truly what was concealed from the wise
has now been revealed to you,
little children that you are."
(note from Gitta: Without my being aware of it, my hands have clenched into fists)
Being: (with a radiant smile)
"When you have a smiling faith,
your hands will open."
(G: I feel that this faith of which the angel speaks is a creative force.)
Being: "Open your hands!"
(G: I open them and a smile floods through me.)
Being: "Now it is good, for you smile.
Ask!"
Gitta: "How is the human constructed?
What are the seven centers and what is their function?"
Being: "The seven levels:
Three of them you know,
and you think you know the fourth.
THREE ARE THE CREATED WORLD.
THREE ARE THE CREATING WORLD.
IN THE MIDDLE IS THE BRIDGE,
WHICH IS NOT KNOWLEDGE. (*!*)
Stone, grass and horse are not followed by humankind,
but by the HUMAN, the UNION of the seven.
It is still difficult for you to grasp.
I am the Fifth.
The WORD is the fourth level revealed.
The WORD is sacred, the fourth manifestation.
It is the bridge between matter and spirit.
(note: A horizontal gesture at the level of the mouth:)
The fourth level is the foundation of the new House,
the substance of Truth.
Take heed! Do not play with it, for from here...
(note: Another gesture at the level of the mouth:)
...from here, the unredeemed, the bad, the false,
leak down and corrupt the three lower levels,
AND THAT IS DISEASE.
But the WORD can raise up:
it can redeem the three lower levels.
ONLY THE HUMAN HAS THE WORD.
YOU SPEAK IN THE NAME OF THE DIVINE.
I speak only through the one who speaks,
for I have no mouth.
When I am united with you, I will have one.
Heaven bless you all!"
(note from Gitta: After the dialogue, I beg Hanna (channeler/her friend) to tell us what she experienced during the teaching of the seven levels of the WORLD. She sketches a diagram, warning us, however, that she had not been able to perceive the entire hierarchy of the Creating World, meaning that the diagram is incomplete.)
As Hanna draws the curve connecting the animal (III) with the angel (V)(*IV is the HUMAN*), I at last understand what my angel had explained at the very beginning of the dialogues: "It and I are united in the task. Do not divide what is one!" Now I understand that the instinctive animal side of my being and the angel can only be united through me, the Human (IV), when I become a bridge over the separating abyss.
***
WOW eh? What do you think of that????
I wish you could see the diagram - I'll try to explain it.
Imagine 7 titles across the top:
Mineral, Plant, Animal, Human, Angel, 6th, 7th (without names)
Then the very CENTER is the Human and a long trench is drawn down and is labelled: "the abyss to be bridged" and "the task of the human".
The diagram ends up looking very menora-ish because there is a half circle drawn downwards from the III Animal pointing to the Human Abyss trench...and then from V Angel a half circle is drawn down and meets the III Animal half-circle.
Thus it is with I and 7 joining and II and VI joining...
It is sooo cool that these were the first few pages that I read in this book after you had your Bridge dream!! Coooo el.!
