The Revelation of Adam

Image
This chapter carries within it, a profound light, similar to that off Raziel and in reading found it beneficial for cleansing the Mind. There are too many, beautiful sections to copy them all here: Final Vindication of the Seed of Seth , The Origin of the Illuminator , Adam and Eve Created...etc.  So, I'll just share my favorite below:  "The Revelation is Preserved on the Mountain The preserved words of the God of the eternal realms were not copied in a book or put in a writing. Angelic beings, whom none of the human generations know, will convey them, and they will be placed on a high mountain, on a rock of truth. They will be called words of incorruptibility and truth and for those who know the eternal God, through wisdom of knowledge and teaching of the eternal angels, because the eternal God knows all things." Pg 355--356   Next: The Acts of Peter and the Twelve Apostles   

The Second Revelation of James

Image
 Before I started, the Celestial Messenger Spirits came by again and blessed the reading, it felt like they set off a gong of energy in the space above me and circulated light in the room.  This chapter is very confusing....as there is words missing, similar to the previous text. Basically, it's James going around town and preaching to various people about Jesus. I get the impression that this was after Jesus's crucifixion. Two sections I found most interesting and beautiful: "The Death Prayer of James" and "James Professes the Divinity of Jesus".    The   death prayer is particularly emotional, due to James being tortured and stoned to death. While reading ..... I thought about how horrible karma it is to murder a spiritual master ..... the people whom murdered him....2000 years later are probably still working off that juju....sigh....it is what it is. His prayer is very emotional, posted below:  "But he reached out his hands and uttered this prayer-...

The First Revelation of James

Image
This chapter is a series of discussions that James has with Jesus, both before and after his persecution. It's eloquently written....but the last section in which he has a post dialogue is very scattered and missing text.....I'm guessing the document itself is missing pieces and a complete translation is impossible. My favorite line from this short 6 page chapter.  "They will arrest me the day after tomorrow, but my deliverance will be near. James said, "Rabbi, you said, "They will arrest me. What can I do? He said to me, "Don't be afraid, James. You to will be arrested. [Leave} Jerusalem, for this city always gives the cup of bitterness to the children of light. This is the dwelling place of many archons, but your deliverance will deliver you from them. In order that you may know who they are and what they are like, you should [flee]. Listen: it is not [everything] but only [firstfruits]. The twelve.........[every one of them] on his own realm of Seven....

The Revelation of Paul

Image
I was supposed to read The Dialogue of the Savior ......but before I even started.....Jesus came through and told me it's "a stagnant and diseased text.....the person whom wrote it had no idea what they were talking about". As a result, I skipped too  The Revelation of Paul , which is an exceptionally beautiful text. Jesus said, that an aspiring Mystic should read it regularly.  Essentially, it is a short story (a few pages) on Paul's ascension through the various heavens....it almost reads like a sudden OBE recorded. My favorite excerpt:  "Then we ascended to the seventh heaven. In the middle of the light I saw an old man in white clothing. His throne, which is in the seventh heaven, was seven times brighter than the sun." Pg 319  Next: The First Revelation of James      

The Wisdom of Jesus Christ

Image
A very interesting chapter, only a paragraph in and Jesus came through. He said that, " By reading this you can understand the Realm of Light."  Reading through gave me some good cleansing in my Mental Plane and there were many beautiful and poetic parts. Read it 100 times to get some good Gnosis.  There were so many great sections, so I'm gonna give a few favorites. This chapter was especially fascinating, because it is about conversations, Jesus has with his disciples after his death, in which he appears as Angelic Light.  "After he rose from the dead, his twelve disciples and seven women continued to be his followers. They went to Galilee, up on the mountain called "Prophecy and Joy." As they gathered together, there confused about the true nature of the universe, and the plan of salvation, and divine forethought, and the strength of the authorities, and everything the Savior was doing with them in the secret plan of salvation. Then the Savior appeared, ...

Eugnostos the Blessed

Image
There is a very special light, that radiates from this text....different from all the previous chapters. Eugnostos was undoubtedly a high level mystic and perceived the mysteries with great clarity. It is implied in the text, that he was also a teacher of some sort......I don't doubt that he helped many students reach great Gnosis.   In my blog, " Glyph Update #3 ", I mention Holy Flames as a Celestial "ore vein", this chapter is overflowing with that power. Though the flame "quality", is too subtle for me to discern. Archangel Michael is known for carrying the Blue Flame (but that's just one) and there are many mystery schools that focus on this arcana, which would benefit from the text. Undoubtedly, the author would be a cool intelligence to summon and an ally for aspiring mystics.    The text overall, is extremely dense and difficult to parse. So much information is packed in this short piece, but my favorite excerpt is part of the ending sectio...

The Holy Book of the Great Invisible Spirit

Image
A very interesting and potent text, one that I will likely have to come back and work with thoroughly to decode. Jesus came through right from the start and said:    "this is a very important text" When I was finished my read, he said:  "this text contains all sorts of occult and holy mysteries, but can only be understood by those purified."  In response, I asked him how to purify oneself in order to understand the text and he replied: "Make offerings to me and I will help you through the process." Jesus taking a personal interest in the text, led me to ask him if this was directly related to his mysteries.....but he said: "No"   I'll return at a later time, I know there are profound mysteries here.....but it's difficult to parse. Additionally, I've previously heard about the Sethian spiritual current, but this is the 1st time they've been mentioned so far in Marvin Meyer's edition. I imagine the "Sethian Story" wi...

The Book of Thomas

Image
Much like the previous, this text was calm and not energetically potent. The theme is casting of worldly passions, possessions and investing in the "Invisible" world....so that you can be "saved" from damnation. The ladies get some shade thrown in this text.....as they are often the object of Men's "passion".  While an enjoyable read, albeit short.....can't say that I have a favorite quote. Onto the next passaage:  - The Holy Book of the Great Invisible Spirit

Exegesis on the Soul

Image
Tis an interesting text, not energetically super-charged like some of the Nag Hammadi, but a calm and relaxing breeze. The theme of Whoredom and the Soul was fascinating.....it slightly reminded me of the Kabbalah Bride-Groom narratives and the desire for upper-lower "reunification". Jesus came through right from the beginning and observed the reading.  In terms of the practical uses, of reading the text, he said that: " If your ever going through "hard times", read this text and it will help "sort through" the chaotic energies of your life."       My favorite quote:  "So we need to pray to the Father and call on him with all our soul, not outwardly with our lips but with the spirit, which is within and has come from the depth,  sighing repenting for the lives we led,  confessing our sins,  recognizing the vain deception  and vain zeal we were in,  weeping over our lives in darkness, as billows roll,  mourning for ourselves  th...

Glyph Intensive

Image
I've decided to temporarily pause my Nag Hammadi pursuit and for a time, focus exclusively "On the Origin of the World" text. I've meditated, divined, spoken to my spirit allies and Raziel. From all these consultations, I've confirmed that working this text will enable me to finish the Glyph Project. My plan is to read through the text 70 times and acquire enough gnosis to complete my Occultist Glyph. Doing this, many reads will be difficult, as the energy of the text is intense and requires rest.  My guess, is that I will finish the "70" in about 8 months. I've enjoyed reading through the Nag Hammadi, but the Glyph Project is more important. Wish me luck.      

On the Origin of the World

Image
This was a very interesting text, basically adding another angle to the Creation story of the world, via blending elements of previous stories (Pistis Sofia, The Nature of the Rulers, Eden Lore...etc). As I prepped, Raziel came through and started pouring light on me, in order to "bless the reading". I asked him after I finished, why he came by (he's never show up in previous readings) and he said this chapter shows many "secrets" and thus he was interested. Raziel is called the "Angel of Secrets" and the "Keeper of All magic".   Raziel said, "this is a sacred and cosmic text, that if you read 50 times, will gift Gnosis of the structure of the Cosmos".     I may have to take up that offer myself....by doing the 50 reads, it could help me with the Glyph Project. The quote below is my favorite:  "Before the end of the age, this whole region will shake with loud thunder. The archons will lament because of their fear of death, the ...

The Nature of the Rulers

Image
I tried reading the Gospel of Phillip....whoever wrote that text is an ass-wipe. The qi is terrible....so bad that reading it may be harmful. Not recommended. On the other hand, "The Nature of the Rulers" is truly something special. The text has a smooth, flowing and ethereal energy.....like a dark and pure wind. A text to be read multiple times, while reading, it felt like a "peak behind the veil".  Jesus came through at the end and told me by reading the text, you can understand the interplay between Celestial and Underworld Spheres and all the "games" that go on between those realms (read 100 times). My favorite quote:   "Samael blew into his face, and the human acquired a soul and stayed upon the ground for many days. The rulers could not make him arise, because they are powerless. Like storm winds they kept on blowing, that they might try to capture the image that appeared to them in the water. And they did not know what its power was." The...

Gospel of Thomas

Image
Back on the road again with the Nag Hammadi, gonna try and work through a few chapters in the coming weeks. The Gospel of Thomas is quite confusing. Jesus came through after I was done, he said: "this chapter is me ranting to my disciples about the Celestial Sphere" .  I then asked him the practical uses of the chapter and he said it was good to read for a gentle cleansing of the 3rd eye.  The following is my favorite part of the text:  "Jesus said, "Often have you desired to hear these sayings that i am speaking to you, and you have no one else from whom to hear them. There will be days where you will seek me and you will not find me. Jesus, said, "The Pharisees and the scholars have taken the keys of knowledge and have hidden them. They have not entered, nor have they allowed those who want to enter to do so. As for you, be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves." pg 144     Soul Related Texts After writing my previous blog, Soul Light, Jesus came...

Temple and Reformation

Image
I had the pleasure of going to a Hindu & Jain temple in my area with family and being part of a Planetary Puja  It was a potent event, the ritual leader knew what he was doing and based on aura, was spiritually solid. Integrated into the puja, was offerings of Incense, Fruit, Flowers, Oil, Holy Water, Pastes and about a dozen different statues, each representing planets, lunar nodes and subtle variations. The ritual head applied mantra tech, bells, mudras and other types of ritual movement. It lasted over an hour and though I think my presence, added power to the ceremony....the dude knew his stuff and really moved qi. At one point, I could feel every person's kundalini rise and the whole space became saturated. Unique to the puja, was it's purpose of assisting with Health and Wealth......completely different for most Judaeo-Christian ceremony.  Then, we visited the main ritual hall, that contained a dozen deity statues. It was obvious, walking into the room.....that whoev...

Secret Book of John

Secret Book of John I supremely enjoyed this text.....it had a soothing energy and many profound passages. The basic topics are The Fall of Sophia, Yaldabaoth, The Creation of Humanity and the potential for redemption. While reading, I had a surprise vision of the Primordial Abyss.....I didn't understand what I was perceiving at first....but checked in with Michael and he explained. Primordial Abyss is the space beyond the Crown and Halo. I asked him how I could better understand this realm which is Beyond and he told me I'd need to go through a very long and deep initiatory process (not something for this lifetime). There were no "messengers"....but I did have 2 visitors: John (Author) and Sophia. Gnostic John came through as an extremely powerful golden spirit and said that he has mastery over Mysticism and a Golden Angelic Light.....he'd be open to working with human beings in both those spheres. Sophia descended into the space as a large ow...

The Tripartite Tractate

 This post has been a long time coming....life laid numerous obstacles....but were back and doing the thing. The Tripartite Tractate This chapter is a creation myth, that talks generally about the development of existence and the eventual descent of Christ into material form for the Redemption of lost Beings. The Emissaries of the Father mentioned in previous posts have become a regular occurrence when I sit down to read. They were particularly active in this text. Every time I finished a section, they would circulate around my aura. Jesus came through at the end and said: "this chapter is valuable, if you want to understand the descent of Light into the various layers of reality. If you read this text a minimum of 50 times....it can initiate that Gnosis." This path of initiation may be of particular interest to those studying Kabbalah. My favorite excerpt below. The Creation of the Human (pg 86) "Now, the whole establishment and organization of t...

The Treatise of Resurrection

  The Treatise on Résurrection ....while this is a intellectually interesting text....it was not energetically stimulating like the previous....I was enjoying the read and about halfway through, when I got interrupted by another Being. It was apparently the author of the text, which as far as I'm aware is not labeled...only Rheginus is mentioned. Anyways, I confirmed the presence with Jesus and the Being gave his name as: A Disciple of Jesus. He then went onto say, that when he wrote the text he was not particularly skilled in the mysteries...and that the text is not useful like previous scriptures....and that he still had much too learn. I thought this was interesting and confirmed my own thoughts, because when the presence came in the space....it was not "clean" like other higher Beings. I asked Jesus on the matter and he said that this person was not a layperson, but was also not a high level mystic either. I then asked if I should continue reading thi...

Gosepl of Truth

  Gospel of Truth , there were some really beautiful sections to this chapter, too many, so I'll only share my favorite here below. It took 3 days to read the whole Gospel and while it was not as energetically potent as other texts (no light roasting....etc) it was still lovely. When I started reading....a couple of Beings came into the space and started "playing music" which started to fill up the space with a kind of "foggy light" that filled me with a sense of peace and calm. I asked Jesus about these Beings and he said they were Emmissary from the Father that had come to Bless the reading. I found this interesting, I tried to continue reading while they were playing, but immediately got a "hard stare"....basically saying, "stop and wait until were finished". So for about 20 minutes, I just sat and let the light flow over me, and when the room was saturated I continued to read. After saturation, they circulated around me f...

Secret Book of James

  Secret Book of James , this is another interesting text, the majority is Jesus chastising and teaching Peter and James, in regards to there spiritual ascension and motivating them to continue onwards and surpass him. Some parts are intelligible and others very confusing....but although its only a few pages it took me 2 days to read. The energetic potency of this scripture was strong (thus the 2nd day) and I woke up in the middle of the night with my whole body vibrating, 3rd eye glowing and my body dry (drink water). After I finished reading the text on the 2nd day....Michael came through, blazing pretty hard and full of light and told me that the text is not meant for the layperson and is for spiritual purification. After Michael finished, then Azazel came through and told me that he disagrees with Michael and that layperson can use this text....that it is especially useful to read if a person is stuck in a stagnant situation. These 2 are always a bit divide...

Prayer of the Apostle Paul

 I plan to continue my Gnostic project and will be transferring all my previous chapter sessions here.    --------------- I just finished my 1st session, on the " Prayer of the Apostle Paul ". It's an interesting prayer, because of some of the things the author is requesting of Christ throughout. -------- During the session, the author Paul came through pretty strongly, but he struggled to "fit" in the space, so I had to clear out any debris. It took several minutes of "getting comfortable". After these initial stages, he started to explain the prayer and that the essential intent of this prayer, is to ask for Jesus's assistance on a path of spiritual ascension, in which you rise to a level of spiritual authority, that is similar to that of Christ and become Holy as Christ. -Ironically, Jesus, didn't say a word the whole session and I only asked him for confirmation of the individual. -------- Anyways, its a cool prayer and I co...
