II. Of the masters’
understanding |
|
'Blinded by Iblīs'1 – since the union of God and Master reveals »the word« that determines master-power: "that materialistic explanation of life that regards 'woman without God' as a physiological or economic machine" (Musil, The Blackbird) – one wants to forget that the fulfillment between »Venus and Genius«2 (cf. Richard Wagner's 'Tannhäuser Song'; Ovid, Metamorphoses: 'Ceres is due my Song!') creates those processes that organize the creation »Humanity« in a cultural way.
1He
replied, “It is not for me to prostrate to a human
2Then
Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the Lord: ‘I will sing to the
Lord, for he is highly exalted.
Then Miriam the prophet, Aaron’s sister, took a
tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her,
1Now two prostitutes came to the king and stood before him. One of them said, ‘Pardon me, my lord. This woman and I live in the same house. I had a baby while she was there with me. The third day after my child was born, this woman also had a baby. We were alone; there was no-one in the house but the two of us. ‘During the night this woman’s son died because she lay on him. So she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while I your servant was asleep. She put him by her breast and put her dead son by my breast. The next morning, I got up to nurse my son – and he was dead! But when I looked at him closely in the morning light, I saw that it wasn’t the son I had borne.’ The other woman said, ‘No! The living one is my son; the dead one is yours.’ But the first one insisted, ‘No! The dead one is yours; the living one is mine.’ And so they argued before the king. (Book of Kings 3,16-22)
1Will
you dispute with him concerning what he saw? He saw him on another
descent. 2The
three men in the furnace Then the herald loudly proclaimed, ‘Nations and peoples of every language, this is what you are commanded to do: as soon as you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music, you must fall down and worship the image of gold that King Nebuchadnezzar has set up. Whoever does not fall down and worship will immediately be thrown into a blazing furnace.’ Therefore, as soon as they heard the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp and all kinds of music, all the nations and peoples of every language fell down and worshipped the image of gold that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up. At this time some astrologers came forward and denounced the Jews. They said to King Nebuchadnezzar, ‘May the king live for ever! Your Majesty has issued a decree that everyone who hears the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music must fall down and worship the image of gold, and that whoever does not fall down and worship will be thrown into a blazing furnace. But there are some Jews whom you have set over the affairs of the province of Babylon – Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego – who pay no attention to you, Your Majesty. They neither serve your gods nor worship the image of gold you have set up.’ Furious with rage, Nebuchadnezzar summoned Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. So these men were brought before the king, and Nebuchadnezzar said to them, ‘Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the image of gold I have set up? Now when you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe and all kinds of music, if you are ready to fall down and worship the image I made, very good. But if you do not worship it, you will be thrown immediately into a blazing furnace. Then what god will be able to rescue you from my hand?’ Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, ‘King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.’ Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude towards them changed. He ordered the furnace to be heated seven times hotter than usual and commanded some of the strongest soldiers in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego and throw them into the blazing furnace. So these men, wearing their robes, trousers, turbans and other clothes, were bound and thrown into the blazing furnace. The king’s command was so urgent and the furnace so hot that the flames of the fire killed the soldiers who took up Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and these three men, firmly tied, fell into the blazing furnace.
The prayer of Azariah Oh, Lord, we have become lower than all the nations. In all the world today we are humiliated because of our sins. At this time we have neither ruler nor prophet, nor one to lead us, neither burnt offering nor sacrifice, neither grain offering nor incense, nor a place to present the firstfruits to you and to find mercy from you. But accept us! We come with contrite hearts and humble minds. Like burnt offerings of rams and bulls, like thousands of fat lambs, let our sacrifice be accepted before you today and make atonement for us with you. For those who trust in you will not be put to shame. We now follow you with all our hearts, we fear you and seek your face. Do not abandon us to shame, but deal with us according to your clemency, according to your abundant mercy! Save us according to your marvellous deeds; bring glory to your name, Lord! But let all who do evil to your servants be put to shame. Let them be put to shame and lose their dominion. Their strength shall be crushed. Let them recognise that you alone are Lord and God, glorious in all the earth. Meanwhile, the king's servants, who had thrown the three men into the furnace, did not stop heating the furnace with resin and tow, pitch and brushwood. The flames leapt out of the furnace to a height of forty-nine cubits. They spread out and burned every Chaldean they could catch within the perimeter of the furnace. But the angel of the Lord had descended into the furnace with Azariah and his companions. He drove the flames of the fire out of the furnace and made the inside of the furnace as if a dewy wind were blowing. The fire did not touch them at all; it did them no harm and did not bother them.
The song of praise of the three young men
The rescue of the three friends
Then Nebuchadnezzar exclaimed: Blessed be the God of
Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego. For he has sent his angel and saved his
servants. Trusting in him, they preferred to disobey the king's command
and lay down their lives rather than worship and adore any god other
than their own. Therefore I decree: Everyone who speaks contemptuously
of the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, to whatever people,
nation or language he belongs, shall be torn to pieces, and his house
shall be reduced to a heap of ruins. For there is no other god who can
save in this way. Then the king saw to it that Shadrach, Meshach and
Abed-nego fared well in the province of Babylon.
The essence of woman – the difference between the
sexes 1For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who left his house early in the morning to hire labourers for his vineyard. He agreed with the labourers on a denarius for the day and sent them to his vineyard. At the third hour he went back to the market and saw others standing there who had no work. He said to them: 'You too go into my vineyard! I will give you what is right. And they went. At the sixth and ninth hour the landowner went to the market again and did the same. When he went again at the eleventh hour, he again met some people standing around. He said to them: Why are you standing here idle all day? They replied: No one has recruited us. Then he said to them: You too go into my vineyard! When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, 'Call the labourers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last and ending with the first. Then the men he had hired at the eleventh hour came and each received a denarius. When it was the first men's turn, they thought they would get more. But they too received only one denarius. Then they began to grumble at the lord of the manor, saying, "These last have worked but one hour, and you have made them equal to us; but we have endured the burden of labour and the heat all day long. Then he replied to one of them: 'My friend, you are not wronged. Didn't you agree a denarius with me? Take your money and go! I will give the last one as much as I gave you. Am I not allowed to do what I want with what is mine? Or are you envious because I am kind (to others)? So the last will be first and the first will be last. (Matthew 20:1-16)
1Elijah went up to the top of Mount Carmel, crouched down on the ground and put his head between his knees. Then he commanded his servant, 'Go up and look out over the sea. He went up, looked out and said, 'There is nothing to see. Elijah commanded: 'Go up again! So it happened seven times. On the seventh time, the servant reported, 'A cloud as small as a man's hand is coming up from the sea. (Kings 18:42-44)
The angel answered her: The Holy Spirit will come upon
you and the power of the Most High
The parable of the wise steward
On the right use of wealth
Jesus' judgement of the Pharisees
Of the law and divorce
The example of the rich man and poor Lazarus Abraham replied: "My child, remember that you received your share of good while you were still alive, but Lazarus only received bad. Now he is being comforted for it, but you have to suffer. Besides, there is a deep, insurmountable chasm between us and you, so that no one can come from here to you or from there to us, even if he wanted to. Then the rich man said: Then I beg you, father, send him to my father's house! For I still have five brothers. Let him warn them, lest they also come to this place of torment. But Abraham said: "They have Moses and the prophets, let them listen to them. He replied: No, father Abraham, only if one of the dead comes to them will they repent. Then Abraham said, "If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if one of the dead rises from the dead.
Warning against temptation
It is men's progressive free-thinking, "No time to repent!" that brings the war. Expelling dominant emotions in women 'with Beelzebub and his angels'1 – the son did not let his sister preside – this throws chaos, misery and oppression on cities, countries, peoples. "On the arbitrarily chosen material schemes spread that have no longer anything in common with humanity, with the 'soul of the human being': business morality enslaves by selling freedom as self-determination. Self-determining, women trample on »woman's self-determination«. Meanwhile men do not deem it necessary to at least listen to the law of creative spirit by which womanhood lives as a truly real Maitreya." 'Pavel Florensky: A Quiet Genius Tragic Life of Russia’s Unknown da Vinci', Avril Pyman, Cambridge University Press 2010. Cities and continents are burning in the spiritual eros of men, "better to reign in hell, than serve in heaven" (Paradise Lost, John Milton) is the pillow talk. 1Then
he will also turn to those on the left and say to them, Away from me,
you cursed, At that time, a possessed man was brought to him who was blind and mute. Jesus healed him so that the mute man could speak and see again. Then all the people were amazed and said, "Is he the Son of David? When the Pharisees heard this, they said: Only with the help of Beelzebul, the leader of the demons, can he cast out the demons. But Jesus knew what they were thinking and said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself will perish, and no city or family divided against itself will endure. So if Satan casts out Satan, then Satan is at odds with himself. How then can his kingdom endure? And if I cast out demons through Beelzebul, who do your followers cast them out through? So they themselves pronounce judgement on you. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has already come to you. How can someone break into a strong man's house and rob him of his possessions unless he first ties him up? Only then can he plunder his house. He who is not with me is against me; he who does not gather with me scatters. Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. He who says anything against the Son of Man will also be forgiven, but he who says anything against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, neither in this world nor in the world to come. Either: the tree is good - then its fruit is also good. Or: the tree is bad - then its fruit is also bad. So the tree can be recognised by its fruit. You brood of vipers, how can you speak good things when you are evil? For what your heart is full of, that is what your mouth speaks. (Matthew 12:22-34)
1Woe
to those who call evil good and good evil,
In Ester's power the world riots in arms 'The queen is never again to come before the king's eyes; the king is to lend the rank of queen to younger one who has more dignity than she.'1. "I stumbled when I saw." (Shakespeare, King Lear). And the snake stealthily ate the immortality herb from the well's edge. (Gilgamesh XI).
1If
it please the king, let there go a royal commandment from him, and let
it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes,
1He
said to Adam, Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree
that I forbade you to eat from,
Water, light and warmth bring forth the New Earth As the mother of Gods inflames the genius, so the Great Goddess inflames the soul-spherical service of the creative ray of the Cultural Creatives; and as much intelligence fraternal spirit receives, so much does the Green Tara make the religion anew. Like the horns for the cow, so is the woman's divine crown the 'sucking organ', creating new the solar-system in the Milky Way from the dharma of the lunar order – at the same time, the waters of enlightened femininity pour encouragement into the soul of man. In this way, women act as gardeners of Her orders.
"Beyond the lower nature of man [Arabic: Nafs; Bhagavad-gita 2:45: 'the three gunas'1] there is a higher energy that comes from Me, which is the wisdom of women's spiritual community feeling and brings about that unfoldment of men's cultural soul striving, which fights against demonic freedom and maintains peace in the world." (according to Bhagavad-gita 7:4-5)2. The more one wants to know about this peace-making power and at the same time cleaning the eight components of one's lower nature ['Herds of pigs plunging down the slope into the lake and perishing in its floods'3 along with Dante's 'Cerberus in the gormandising realm of hell'], the more the vision reveals itself. "This is not about pity, but something quite different: There is nothing more shameful than the sight of human beings, degraded to inhumanity!" Albert Camus.
1The
mode of action of the three gunas (determinations of being) is the
subject of the Veda.
2The
five elements (prerequisites of material existence), the mind (with its
various senses and tools),
3Then
the demons asked Jesus: If you cast us out, send us into the herd of
swine!
