Analogy of same; but now by applying what ''eye'' represents - IN RELATION - to that 'gap'..."When i began drawing the mandalas - i saw that everything; all the paths i had been following; all the steps i had taken - were leading back to a single point - namely to the mid-point. It became increasingly plain to me that the mandala is the center. It is the exponent of all paths. It is the path to the center {horseshoe?} to individuation...I knew that in finding the mandala as an expression of the self, i had attained what was for me, the ultimate. Perhaps someone else knows more, but not me." [C. G. Jung].

"I want to know , sir - when shall i see god?"

"You have found him."

"Oh no, sir, I don't think so!" My Guru was smiling. ''I am sure you aren't expecting a venerable Personage, adorning a throne in some antiseptic corner of the cosmos! I see, however, that you are imagining, that possession of miraculous powers is proof that one has found god. No. One might gain power to control the whole universe - yet find the Lord elusive still. Spiritual advancement is not to be measured by ones displays of outward powers, but solely by the depth of his bliss in mediation. 'Ever new joy, is god. He is inexhaustible'...The starry inscription at one's birth, i came to understand, is not that man is a puppet of his past. Its messages is rather a prod to pride; the very heavens seek to arouse man's determination to be free from every limitation. God created each man as a soul, dowered with individuality, hence essential to the universal structure, whether in the temporary role of pillar or parasite. His freedom is final and immediate, if he so wills; it depends not on outer but inner victories." [Extract from the book 'Autobiography of a Yogi'].

''Divine bit'' [awareness of], in relation to ''framework'' relative to cause and effect = freedom of something? i.e., awareness [over a period of time?] = a connection? Link to the word ''joy'' and/or ''grace''.

Analogy of same..."I will present the psychological aspect of the tradition, particular Jungian thinking, and show how it relates to alchemy and, perhaps more importantly initiation - the later a relationship that has not been touched upon by other authors..."

Question. Sense / nonsense. A possibility or not?

A working example?..."To be aware of higher reality while dealing with ordinary reality requires an effort of awareness, detachment, concentration and insight which are the result of long patience. These experiences of vaster consciousness have been tasted by everyone in rare moments of our lives and are reminiscent of the wonder years of childhood. But despite the deep emotion or astonishing joy that accompanies them {eureka moments?}, they are always fleeting, ephemeral, and uncontrollable. The disciplines of the Work eventually make the practitioner receptive to longer, more frequent encounters with these regenerating and illuminating events." ['The Wisdom of the 4th Way']. Continued elsewhere.

Analogy with same intent in mind; with the same aim: "...In taking infinite pains to shroud with mystery His presence in the atoms of creation, the 'creator' could have had but one motive, one sensitive desire: that man seek him only through free will..." As does...

Refresher: " I make no secret whatsoever of the fact that my rather revolutionary model of the atom came to me in a dream.'' Niels Bohr.

"The 'good life' is a process. The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination. The good life constitutes a direction selected by the total organism, when there is psychological freedom to move in ANY direction."

A ‘temple’ structure of some description was finally located within a certain ‘mountain’. just as Khufu-s sarcophagus was found within the kings chamber within that well known similar structure...but no body was found. Or will be found. To find that location, understand this subject.

 

Side note: That structure {i.e.,Kings chamber and/or 'room'?} that seems to be constructed differently from the norm as described in such works as 'Pyramid of Secrets' - in relation to: "A few days later our master left us. He died in his room below the loft, its floor newly sprung on wire cable supports. Almost immediately, we had an insight into that curious image of Vivien and Merlin that had been conjured by the doors. Our wizard master had been in the well - in the room beneath the loft - and was already on the point of death. What strange previsions are called forth from a Fool on the path. Is the sting of 'death' {uraeus link} meant for those who die, or for those who remain behind? This was the question we would ask ourselves...Perhaps the 'poison' in the sting {'Scorpion'?} is that so much remains behind, reminding one of what has been lost. Many of his words still echoed in our mind, and his example still guided our footsteps - at least as an ideal if not as an actual practiced reality...He seemed to live in our 'heart', and even in our head, in that incessant chatter which, we learn in the Schools, is the excrement of thought...Venus is called the planet of 'love' by those who do not know about the Mysteries', he had said..."

''Analogy: ''These temples {i.e., Isis} differ from the Moon Temples of Thoth - in that they have an actual architectural presence, whereas the Moon Temple of Thoth at this time exists only on the etheric plane {with the exception of Thoth's teaching chapel, which is a converted hayloft}. Yet the instructions for building all these temples comes directly from Source." [Page 8 'The Union of Isis and Thoth' / N. Ellis and N. Scully].

Side note: ''Nefertiti's 'sunshade' lay in what is now known as Kom el-Nana. This lies at the southern end of an axis that begins at the very north of the Amarna site, in what would become the Northern City, which included the Northern Riverside Palace - apparently the royal family's principle residence. The axis then runs in a 'straight line' southward, passing close to a further {North} palace and then through the HEART of the Central City, with the two main Aten Temples fronting on to it {'H'?} and the Great Palace straddling it {'T'?}. This section would become the ''Royal Road,'' but beyond this point housing rapidly grew up, leaving Kom el-Nana isolated, seemingly without any ceremonial access FROM the north. Kom el-Nana was enclosed by a buttressed mud-brick enclosure wall {'wattle'?}, with pylon entrances in the west, south, and east, but apparently NOT north {'enclosed on three sides'?}. It was subdivided into a North and South section, both with gardens and 'pits' for trees. The SOUTHERN section was focused on the so called South Shrine - LARGE blocks used instead of the usual talatat - and extensively decorated. On the basis of the style of its reliefs and the PRESENCE therein of ONLY THE THREE elder daughters, this southern sector seems to have been constructed early in the building process at Amarna.'' [Page 35 'Nefertit' / A. Dodson].

And/or: "There hearts were UPRIGHT AND UNDIVIDED. These were men that were not only seeking god, but god was looking for them {i.e., in 'contact' with him}. He had this whole plan of salvation for those that want to walk with Him. The main person, however, in the Old Testament who teaches us something about prayer is Abraham. The Mar Elias Monastery is on the Hebron road. One could go directly there by car {'chariot'?} or by walk. It is at Hebron where Abraham pitched his tent, and where the three angels came and visited him and told him he would have a son, Isaac. And so this is a place where the Trinity itself came and visited Abraham. This was also the place from which he came walking toward Mount Moriah when the lord asked him to sacrifice his son, Isaac. Amazing! he might have passed right in front of this monastery, right across these grounds. And what moved him to leave the Ur of Chaldees? What moved him from Mamre? Where eventually he was buried together with his wife; the first place that was ever purchased in this land for the tombs for himself and all of the different Patriarchs and Matriarchs of the Old Testament. WHAT MOVED HIM? He heard this question that the lord directed to Adam: 'Where are you? Here i am', he says, 'here i am.' And he left his land, and so he goes forth....Going forth - searching for something greater than himself." [Day Two: Pilgrimage of Prayer: Lent 2024: Magdala].

"Mamre (/ˈmæmri/; Hebrew: מַמְרֵא), full Hebrew name Elonei Mamre, 'Oaks of Mamre', refers to an ancient religious site originally focused on a single holy tree, growing "since time immemorial" at Hebron in Canaan.^[9] At its first location, Khirbet Nimra, a pagan tree cult predated the biblical narrative.^[10] It is best known from the biblical story of Abraham and the three visitors.^[11] The tree under which he had pitched his tent is known as the oak or terebinth of Mamre. Modern scholars have identified three sites near Hebron which, in different historical periods, have been successively known as Mamre: Khirbet Nimra (a little excavated Persian and Hellenistic period site), Ramat el-Khalil (the best known site, flourished from the Herodian through the Byzantine period), and Khirbet es-Sibte.

The last one contained an old oak tree identified by a relatively new tradition as the Oak of Mamre, which has collapsed in 2019, and is on the grounds of a Russian Orthodox monastery....Genesis 13:18 has Abraham settling by 'the great trees of Mamre'. The original Hebrew tradition appears, to judge from a textual variation conserved in the Septuagint, to have referred to a single great oak tree, which Josephus called Ogyges.^[9] Mamre may have been an Amorite, a tribal chieftain after whom a grove of trees was named. Genesis connected it with Hebron or a place nearby that city.^[12] Mamre has frequently been associated with the Cave of the Patriarchs.

'Thirteen' / 'Eighteen'.

Jewish-Roman historian Josephus, as well as Christian and Jewish sources from the Byzantine period, locate Mamre at the site later renamed in Arabic as Ramat el-Khalil, 4 km north of historical Hebron and approximately halfway between that city and Halhul. Herod the Great apparently initiated the Jewish identification of the site with Mamre, by erecting there a monumental enclosure. It was one of the three most important "fairs" or market places in Judea, where the fair was held next to the venerated tree, accompanied by an interdenominational festival joined in time by Jews, pagans, and Christians. This prompted Emperor Constantine the Great to unsuccessfully attempt at putting a stop to this practice by erecting a Christian basilica there."

"Mar Elias Monastery (Hebrew: מנזר אליהו הקדוש, Arabic: دير مار إلياس, romanized: Deir Mar Elias) is a Greek Orthodox monastery in south Jerusalem, on a hill overlooking Bethlehem and Herodium, near Hebron Road [he]....According to Christian tradition, Elijah rested here after fleeing the vengeance of Jezebel.^[1] It is also said to be the burial place of the Greek Bishop Elias of Bethlehem who died in 1345, and St. Elias, an Egyptian monk who became Patriarch of Jerusalem in 494....Another Christian tradition is that Mary rested under the large hackberry tree growing north of the monastery when she was fleeing Herod, who had ordered the execution of all the children of Bethlehem."

And/or: ''The new construction at Karnac emphasized Nefertiti's role as Aten's high priestess. One of the four temples that Amenhotep IV {Akhenaten} had erected before the end of Year 5 was a temple called the Mansion of the Benben. {The Benben stone was the most sacred monument within the temple of Ra-Atum at Heliopolis}....All built from lightweight talatat stone. But never the showing the king ONLY Nefertiti worshipping the Aten...The only other person who appears in the Mansion of the Benben is Meritaten {eldest daughter}.''

The image came to me of a house {or temple?} with many floors, and i saw that in ordinary awareness we live on a shelf in the ATTIC of our selves, leaving the other floors relatively uninhabited and the basement locked. What furnishings and books, what interesting artworks and appliances....to be found in the rooms of the many -mansioned self. Treasure troves to be sure.....within the interior castle....Some once and future self woke up in me then and knew that i had no other choice but to pursue the path of Hermes, the trickster, and invent a career that would discover ways of tapping into that ''so much more'' of deep knowledge that WE ALL CARRY IN THE NESTED GNOSIS WITHIN.''

Refresher: "Whether our master had in mind an intentional symbolism in this request to clear out the upper room, we shall never know.

Something extra: ''Vibration of Etheric Substance, Causing light through regions of space {'coal sacks' or 'Ostrich' nests?}….A girdle of Something, enfolding, and binding together the race....And words without wires transmitted, ''Ariel'' - winged, spirit-sandaled and shod - Some call it Electricity {'137'?}….And others call it God."

Golden sandels on Tutankhamun.

God is in the detail.

A working example: ''The mobility of the khaibit....holds an earthly shape, an energetic image of the essential self....it is not the soul itself. It recalls the record of one lifetime alone, whereas the soul is the culmination of many 'lifetimes' and experiences....Khaibit, or shadow, earth bound shape; whereas sahu, its twin etheric body, is the glorified body of light that lives with 'the gods'....the transfigured self....the body of gold...the immortal body.'' ['Dreams of Isis' / N. Ellis].

Ancient and modern cultures alike speak of the light phenomenon we call the aura, that energy field resonant around the body. The Indians call it prana; the Chinese, chi; Cabalists call it nefesh; but the ancient Egyptians called it the BODY OF GOLD, or sahu.'' [Page 142, same book].

i.e., as one example ''edge'' in relation to say the ''hoar's way''

''Mountian low, Valley high.''

Something 'hinted' at - by way of - an analogy to a similar 'key': ''Elsewhere in the book he deplores the lack of interest in that which is worth while, at the same time analysing the word ''pastime''. He says, 'The world, out of its own use of this word, renders judgement against itself. For it is concerned with amusements and pleasures which do not really satisfy the mind and fill it with the sense of an abiding and satisfying joy; they serve only; as this word confesses, to pass away the time, to prevent it from hanging an intolerable burden, on man's hands; all which they can do at the best is to prevent man from discovering and attending to their own internal poverty and dissatisfaction and want." [Page 50 'The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation' / Inez Perry].

Side note: ''What is that ''Spark'' which ''hangs from the flame?''. It is Jiva, the Monad in conjunction with Manas, or rather its aroma - that which remains from each personality, when worthy, and hangs from Atma-Buddhi, the Flame, by the thread of life. In whatever way interpreted, and into what ever number of principles the human being is divided, it may easily be shown that this doctrine is supported by all the ancient religions....As in the case of the Hebrew culture - the entire system of the Kabalistic numerals is based on the divine septenary hanging from the Triad {thus forming the Decade}, and its permutations 7, 5, 4, and 3, which finally, all merge into the one itself: an endless and boundless circle. The Deity {the ever Invisible Presence}, says the Zohar, ''manifests itself through the ten Sephiroth which are its radiating witnesses." [Page 238/9 'The Secret Doctrine' / H. P. Blavatsky].

Continued: As an example: : "Lucius had known from the very beginning of his affliction - that if only he could eat a rose, then he would return to his human condition. Now, an initiate priest in the processional {prepared for such action by the goddess} holds towards the ass a bunch of roses. The Golden Ass, rich with all the knowledge and suffering he has gained through his bestial servitude, eats the roses, and is transformed, as in a miracle, back into the 'higher' man." [Same book].

''Upper'' in relation to ''higher'' and/or ''rose'' in relation to ''Rostau''? Enlarged elsewhere.

Rostau in relation to the Osiris shaft. Understanding that, gives clues as to a possible location.

N.B. Osiris = God of the Moon. OR MORE IMPORTANTLY - WHAT THE 'moon' REPRESENTS.

"Those who read the wild Latin of Lucius Apulcius would have known that the Latin for rose, {Ros}, was also the name used for the dew - fall from 'Heaven,' the secret liquor of the Moon, which was one of the mysteries of the Ros-icrucians." [Notes for the above paragraph. Same book].

Question. Is the ''rose'' OR ''dew-fall'' REPRESENTED within the Giza complex?

'See' it?

''We are here at one of the entrances to the great temple at Amon, where the image of water is always evoked. Accentuating this element, the composition goes so far as to use long lines of 'prisoners' to symbolise undulating waves of water. In terms of the myth {of Kadesh}, Amon indeed manifests himself in the dew. The effect produced here by the superposition of two successive scenes is found clearly expressed in the interior of the Great Hall at Karnac by the representation of the Theban triad in a naos poised on water....After the battles of Kadesh by Ramses {''birth of Ra''}, let us again cite a symbolic gesture of Thothmes III, whose name means 'birth of the moon'....'' [Page 127-137 'Sacred Science' / R. A. Shwalle de Lubicz].

Side note: "Horeb" is thought to mean glowing/heat, which seems to be a reference to the Sun, while Sinai may have derived from the name of Sin, the Ancient Mesopotamian religion deity of the Moon,^[2][9] and thus Sinai and Horeb would be the mountains of the Moon and Sun, respectively.''

And/or: ''It is well established that the battle of Kadesh took place in the bend of a Orontes river, during the 5th year of the reign of Ramses. What is difficult to understand, however, is why the king, after having single handedly vanquished the army......must continue to fight against them for 'fifteen' more years....'' [Page 127].

"Perhaps the most fascinating question is that of religion. It is not surprising that the Arameans at Syene had shrines to their gods, but the presence of a Jewish Temple to YHW at Elephantine was quite unexpected. When and why was it established?" ['Archives from Elephantine' / B. Porten].

Why did they omit that final letter. What did they know? i.e., once understood it explains why it was the only 'Temple' to be 'officially acknowledged' outside of Jerusalem. That relationship with ISAIAH 19:19. It also ties in and 'connects' the three major re-ligions, to the ''pagan'' one i.e., ancient Egyptian, [ i.e., this subject, especially in relation to 'King-ship', of which some believe our modern concepts of ''morality'' originated from] - Islam, Hebrew , and Christianity. The clue lies in the letter ‘H’. Notice that there are two. It represents or is symbolic of a window / gateway / doorway..etc. Not literal, i.e., no ‘Astral porthole’. Symbolic only, i.e., Gateway to the heart. Window to the soul etc. Indicative of that development. In relation to a ‘journey’. REPRESENTATION OF.

Question. What is the difference between Altar of Witness and/or Altar of Sacrifice?

"It should be observed that when we treat in this work of any homonym { 'keys'/'signs'}, we do not desire you to confine yourself to that which is stated in that particular chapter; but we open for you a portal and direct your attention to those significations of the word which are suited to our purpose...."

"There on a limestone stela, this new kingdom pharaoh refers to the Sphinx under the names Hor-em-Akhet and Horakhti, and also makes a direct reference to the Giza pyramids which - to the annoyance of Egyptologists - he does not ascribe to his fourth dynasty predecessors Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, but rather nominates as 'the pyramids of Hor-em-Akhet' {Horus in the horizon}. The clear implication is that in Amenhotep's time - there existed no historical archives, nor even any tradition, that linked the pyramids with the obvious three pharaohs...Chronologically, the next inscription referring to the Sphinx occurs on the famous 'Dream Stela'...found in a standing position {'vertical'?} between the paws of the Sphinx {'horizontal'?}: 'Behold, thou me. See thou me my son Thutmosis. I am - Hor-em-Akhet...who will give you my kingdom on earth..." ['The Magicians of the Gods'].

"Consciousness is represented by the horizon..." ['The 12 Astrological Houses: The Way of Creative {anima?} Accomplishment' / Dane Rudhyar].

Question. If the pyramids {and therefore Orions belt , i.e., indicative of achieving something, i.e., 'under his belt'} - links up to 'Horus in the horizon' - then where would be the representation - within a landscape - of 'Horus of the horizon' ?

And/or: {refresher}: "We have come now to our study in Libra, which the sun enters at the fall equinox."

Leo/Virgo in relation to Libra. First six signs below the 'horizon'. Later six above it.

''Libra (♎︎) (Ancient Greek: Ζυγός, romanized: Zygós, Latin for "scales") is the seventh astrological sign in the zodiac. It spans 180°–210° celestial longitude.^[2] The Sun transits this sign on average between September twentytwo and October 23.^[3][4] The symbol of the scales is based on the Scales of Justice held by Themis, the Greek personification of divine law and custom.^[5] She became the inspiration for modern depictions of Lady Justice. The ruling planet of Libra is Venus along with Taurus.^[6][7] Libra is the only zodiac sign that is represented by an object; with the other eleven signs represented by either an animal or mythological character....Libra is the cardinal modality of the three air signs, the others being Gemini and Aquarius. The main connotations of planets under this sign are sociable, rational, and detached when dealing with situations.^[9] Libra is symbolized by the scales and is associated with the Roman deity Iustitia. According to the writer Manilius, Roman judges are born under the sign of Libra. The Moon was said to be in Libra when Rome was founded and this was based on the historical passage, which state "qua condita Roma".^[11] Everything was balanced under this righteous sign.''

Refresher: "In Leo and Virgo lay now the long forgotten asterism Fahne, of which Ideler wrote: 'The Flag is a constellation of the heavens, one part in Leo, one part in Virgo. Has many stars. On the iron {the arrowhead of the staff} in front one; on the flag two; on every fold of the flag, one...Brown repeats a Euphratean inscription: 'The constellation of the 'Yoke' - 'like a flag floated' - although he claims no connection here, and associates the Yoke with Capricorn." [Page 255 'Star Names and Their Meaning'].

A working example: ''The spirit uses us inscrutably....it plays us like a fish. The further we run...the more line it gives - and the greater the illusion of freedom - until we are reeled in and landed on the shores of another element...Past actions freely chosen...are nevertheless ordained by Providence, pulling us back full circle INTO THE FOLD of oneself - allowing us to find 'her' - waiting for all eternity.''

"The term 'Lord of Hosts' , NOT found in the papyri, occurs in fragmentary contexts IN three ostraca. In two of these, it appears in the salutation, 'May the lord of hosts, seek your welfare at all times'....The third term appears in a contract dated December 12, 402, more than eight years after the destruction of the temple. Tamut, Ananiah's wife is called ''yhnh OF yhw the god who dwells IN the fortress of Elephantine." [Same book, i.e., by B. Porten].

Something to ponder on: "Very frequent mention was made of this constellation in early days, for the Platonists held that souls of men, when released from corporeity, ascended to heaven through its stars, whence it was called the Gate of The Gods {'H'?}; their road of descent having been through Cancer. But some of the Orientals knew it as the Southern Gate of the Sun {'Ascendant'?}, as did the Latins in their altera Solis Porta. Berossos is reported by Seneca to have learned from the old books of Sargon that the world would be 'destroyed' by a great conflagration when all the planets met in this sign." [info., on 'Capricorn' within the book 'Star Names and Their Meaning'].

Side note: Question. Many wonder why no artifacts have 'surfaced' over the years {centuries?} in regards to grave goods of many Pharaohs - especially those that represent the Giza complex {Rostau?}. Main answer given = tomb robbers. Purely as a hypothetical exercise; if such grave sites had been plundered what would have been done with the artifacts - i.e.,melted down / private collections / some most likely kept? - surely by now over the {centuries?} something should have come to light {other than one small figurine of Khufu - for the hardnutz enthusiast i.e., but as they know - or should know - that small figure is not 'grave goods'}.

continued....At least {according to the Law of Averages?} one or two items should by now have surfaced, i.e.,could everything have been melted down? The obvious answer is NO - not everything {i.e.,gems/jewels not to mention the larger items etc.,}. The Statute of Limitations surely rules out the other two. Someone by now would have least TRIED - as the fraudsters have already PROVEN {i.e.,they could sense that 'weakness' in the market - due to that time period - that then allowed them to TRY}. As for the third option - maybe nothing has come to 'light' SIMPLY because they are all still buried?

Question. In a single spot/location {'sacrifice'}- for each individual - or in the 'collective' sense of the word {'witness'}?: i.e., which of those possible 'locations' would something least {most?} likely be found accidently? While recalling the link they ALL have with that ONE FIGURE in the night sky.

Question 2. When ALL THE AVAILABLE information is assessed. What does that Kingly Principle that goes by the nickname of Occam's Razor say?

''It should not surprise us that after 4500 years no mummies have been found in Old Kingdom pyramids. However, we have ABUNDANT EVIDENCE that pyramids were tombs. We have hieroglyphic texts that say IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS that the mummy of the king were buried in the pyramid.'' ['Legend of the Pharaohs' / Colleen Darnell].

Religious considerations suggest that the Jewish Temple was also built during his reign. Manasseh ruled for fiftyfive years - the longest of any Israelite king. The one outstanding feature of his reign was his many pagan innovations. These included the erection of altars to the host of heaven...and the establishment of a graven image of Asherah...These acts brought on prophesies that the Lord himself would destroy Jerusalem....It may be surmised that priests as well as prophets opposed his paganism. Some of these priests fled to Egypt, joined the Jewish garrison at Elephantine, and there, inspired by the prophecy of a pillar to the Lord at the border of Egypt, erected the Temple to YHW..." ['Book by B. Porten].

Coincidence or a synchronistic one? Try 'Ash-erah'' and/or ''Saturn'' for something extra.

It may also ''be surmised'' that all concerned {i.e., Manessah and his most trusted high priests} knew something. Subject material? After all we are back to the original question. Mr Porten believes that STILL missing 'H' to be: "It is likely that the inner most sanctuary contained a sacred pillar, as did the inner sanctum of the Israelite Temple at Arad."

 

So the question is. Did that temple go by the 'name' YHWH or YHW?

Postscript: "The repentant Manasseh was restored to his kingdom and started to rebuild Judah militarily (2 Chronicles 33:14), and he also began to institute religious reforms. “He got rid of the foreign gods and removed the image from the temple of the Lord, as well as all the altars he had built on the temple hill and in Jerusalem; and he threw them out of the city. Then he restored the altar of the Lord and sacrificed 'fellowship offerings' and 'thank offerings' on it, and told Judah to serve the Lord, the God of Israel” (2 Chronicles 22:15–16).

Even though Manasseh had a personal conversion, he was never able to lead Judah out of the sin that he had previously led them into. They did not follow him in his reforms. The people continued in their idolatry (2 Chronicles 33:17), and, when Manasseh died, his son Amon “did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father Manasseh had done." Amon worshiped and offered sacrifices to all the idols Manasseh had made. But unlike his father Manasseh, he did not humble himself before the Lord” (2 Chronicles 33:22–23).

Continued: Manasseh is a tragic figure in Scripture. Although he repented of his sin, he was unable to undo the damage he had done to the nation or to his own son who followed him. Manasseh demonstrates that, while any sin may be forgiven when we repent, forgiveness does not necessarily remove the natural consequences that flow from disobedience." [Wiki].

From a different perspective: Tracking the Anasazi {Hopi}: A Mythological Perspective: ''The primordial age was infused with Tokpela, an immense empty space beyond time or light. All was void existing in the mind of Tawa {Taiowa}, the Creator. Because he was lonely he created a nephew called Sotuknang, the Heart of the Sky god, to act as his messenger. Out of this endless space Tawa directed Sotuknang to create the First World. He then made the earth, the waters and winds. He put them in their proper places and set them in motion {static/dynamic?}. Koyanwuhti, or Spider Grandmother, was there as well. She presided over the mysteries of the Below, while Tawa controlled the power of the Above. In addition there was another being named Masau'u, the spirit of the earth {mercurius?}, sometimes referred to as the Great Spirit. Together with Spider Grandmother he would have dominion over the terrestrial realms and the Underworld.....The Hopi used a STONE map or maps given by Masau'u in consort with Spider Grandmother to guide them in their journeys. They followed certain sidereal signs such as moving stars or constellations to tell them when and where to travel.'' [Page 10/23 'The Orion Zone' / Gary David].

Antirrhinum is a genus of plants commonly known as dragon flowers or snapdragons because of the flowers' fancied resemblance to the face of a dragon that opens and closes its mouth when laterally squeezed. They are also sometimes called toadflax^[1] or dog flower.^[2] They are native to rocky areas of Europe, the United States, Canada, and North Africa. Antirrhinum species are widely used as ornamental plants in borders and as cut flowers. The word "antirrhinum" is derived from the Greek ἀντίρρινον antirrhinon which in turn is derived from ἀντί anti "opposite, counterfeiting", and ῥίς rhis "nose" (GEN ῥινόϛ rhinos); from its resemblance to an animal's mouth.''

Side note: Androgyny is the possession of both masculine and feminine characteristics.^[1] Androgyny may be expressed with regard to biological sex, gender identity, or gender expression....In the ancient and medieval worlds, androgynous people and/or hermaphrodites were represented in art by the caduceus, a wand of transformative power in ancient Greco-Roman mythology. The caduceus was created by Tiresias and represents his transformation into a woman by Juno in punishment for striking at mating snakes. The caduceus was later carried by Hermes/Mercury and was the basis for the astronomical symbol for the planet Mercury and the botanical sign for hermaphrodite. That sign is now sometimes used for transgender people.

Another common androgyny icon in the medieval and early modern period was the Rebis, a conjoined male and female figure, often with solar and lunar motifs. Still another symbol was what is today called sun cross, which united the cross (or saltire) symbol for male with the circle for female.^[73] This sign is now the astronomical symbol for the planet Earth.^[74]

Continued: {now in the ancient sense of the 'word'}: "The further back we go in our search for the origins and meaning of the Moon Goddess {i.e., the author defines that as the 'archetypal foundation of feminine psychology {principle?} - AND/OR 'the inner development of the emotional realm' / S/E?} - the nearer do we come to the 'animal' concept. Hecate {mentioned elsewhere} was once known, in the dim past, as the three headed hound of the moon. Artemis was a bear; Isis was Hathor the Cow goddess. Cybele was once a lioness or a lion headed goddess...In later centuries of the Egyptian worship of Osiris {therefore Isis related} - it was said that Apis, the bull, was the spirit of Osiris {hint, hint - see it?}. This saying gives a direct clue to the EVOLUTION of the religious thought...The animal attendants and animal emblems surrounding the goddess in her shrines must have constantly reminded the worshippers of later days, of those 'wilder' aspects of her nature from which she had partly evolved...They were still kept near to her, for she could not be comprehended except in the light of her past...The Bear {as one example}, indeed, represents the fierce and terrible aspect of the 'goddess' {i.e.,anima/animus?} herself, which not only creates but destroys life. Later the two aspects of the goddess became partially differentiated and separated, so that in the famous sculpture {as one example} of 'The Mourning Aphrodite of Lebanon', the animal in this case a boar {'Hog'?} instead of a bear, is killing the 'youthful' Adonis, while Aphrodite laments in deepest grief. Yet the boar, is also Aphrodite herself...The psychological meaning of this gradual change in 'form' is clear. In extremely early days, before civilization had progressed far, feminine instinct was perceived as entirely animal. Then the fierceness of the mothers care for her young and the voracity of her lust for the male in the mating season were the most obvious and dominant characteristics of beast and woman alike...The frequent occurrence of crimes of passion bears witness to the panther like qualities which feminine instinct may develop when frustrated... As civilizations progressed, however, women began developing something nearer akin to the emotion which we call love {'Eros'}, and the goddess of women rose gradually above her animal nature...This rapacious aspect of the moon goddess is represented by the lion or panther; her maternal and nurturing aspect by the cow, whose horns suggest the 'horned moon'..."

"A long standing puzzle in the Iliad has been why Homer sometimes refers to horses as being 'single hooved' or 'single footed'.

A more likely explanation is to be found in the skies, with the ancient Greek observers comparing the movement of the stars across the heavens with horses galloping across the field of 'battle' - single hooved horses indicating single stars...Nor is the comparison of horses with stars confined to the Iliad: in parts of more northern Europe , stars were believed to be 'steeds' tethered to the pole star."

It is when the person in Plato's cave first wonders about the shadows on the wall and turns around to see from where they are being cast. This begins a new phase in their life, hence 'Neophyte', one 'new' to that direction...The word MThChIL is also similar to MThIChH meaning 'stretched', 'extended'.

Something to ponder on: "Each 'region' has a gate, and each gate has three 'attendants', a watcher, a herald and a gatekeeper. As an aspiring soul approaches the gate, the watcher takes notice, the herald announces that persons 'name', and if that person knows the 'higher' mystical truth {by way of keys/correspondences etc} - the gatekeeper allows entry. This teaching degraded in later times to the point where people began to think that just by memorizing certain names they would be allowed access. Rather one must know the 'higher' truth which unites one with the dweller {of the threshold?} within the abode of the 'house'....{I.e., in the internal sense of the word}. Hence: "Each aspect should be seen NOT as independent personalities but as aspects of one, having the sense of sight, speech and organs of 'action' {i.e., 'hands' to open the 'gate'}…..The Watcher is that aspect which 'sees' and takes notice, the witness. The Herald is the aspect of acknowledging what has been seen. The Gatekeeper is the element which is 'seen' and which needs to be satisfied that the aspirant is worthy of 'gaining entry'...."

Elsewhere he is both respected and feared as 'bull of the baboons' and 'chief of the apes'...In any case it is Ba-bi who possesses the power to open the doors, or shutters of heaven. If a literal translation upon an esoteric basis for the whole sequence existed, it might be possible to explain precisely what is meant. As it stands, an informed surmise is the best that is possible. Draw back the bolt; i.e.,the 'phallus' of Ba-bi is withdrawn, hence the power of generation is suspended, which in turn means the need for reincarnation is voided, opening the gates to heaven, the reunion with the source...Ba-bi is associated with the 'bolt' that serves as hypostasis, or essence of the 'phallus' of Ba-bi...Called 'guardian of the banks of the lake of fire'; he feeds upon 'the overturned', the fallen, the enemies of Osiris.

REFRESHER: "The same myth also provides insight into the two paths or ways of 'salvation'. The Way of Osiris and the Way of Horus. The former is the way of 'reincarnation', of progressive dissolutions linked only by the generative principle; the latter is the direct path {'cliff'?}; that of the warrior of the spirit, out to subdue the enemy within himself by his own efforts." [Page 129 'Serpent in the Sky'].

"The Ferryman is familiar to us now, as Saint George, as Edward, and all their predecessors. Even Baring-Gould was bold enough to identify him with Charon, the classical Ferryman of souls. The sixth sphere [This author identifies that to the Hebrew tree of Life, i.e.,the heart] - is linked with the sun or Principle of harmony and beauty. In Celtic tradition the sun was said to be the sum of the blazing souls of ancestors in paradise. This is the realm of the saviour ['six' was the crucifix] and of the Archangel Michael, whose place in myth has already been touched upon. The ancient sacrificial king operated spiritually from this sixth sphere as a 'mediator' of the power of the mother goddess. Christ, the 'son of' god, should be positively identified here, with all the other "sons of light" through the ages, and by analogy with the sun of our solar system around which the planets revolve.

Nowadays this concept could also be applied to the structure of the atom, and still hold good. The Sepher Yetzirah gives 'six' as - 'He sealed the Abyss, he turned downward and sealed it with YVH'. This YVH is part of the holy name of god, reputed to have 'magical' powers, but actually a scientific codification of metaphysics. The Abyss is that great unknown gap between 'heaven' and earth, the 'river' which the dead have to cross, spanned by the razor-edged bridge of fairy lore [or the eye of the needle parlance. This readers input] - or crossed by the 'vessel' of the Ferryman." [Taken from 'Where is Saint George' by R. Stewart].

Refresher: "The first key to the text {i.e.,Unas} is the significance of Ba-bi. As is so often the case with complex but vital symbols of Egypt, Ba-bi has both positive and negative aspects. He is called upon to protect Unas. Elsewhere he is both respected and feared as 'bull of the baboons' and 'chief of the apes'...In any case it is Ba-bi who possesses the power to open the doors, or shutters of heaven. If a literal translation upon an esoteric basis for the whole sequence existed, it might be possible to explain precisely what is meant. As it stands, an informed surmise is the best that is possible. Draw back the bolt; i.e.,the 'phallus' of Ba-bi is withdrawn, hence the power of generation is suspended, which in turn means the need for reincarnation is voided, opening the gates to heaven, the reunion with the source...Ba-bi is associated with the 'bolt' that serves as hypostasis, or essence of the 'phallus' of Ba-bi...Called 'guardian of the banks of the lake of fire'; he feeds upon 'the overturned', the fallen, the enemies of Osiris. As guardian of the Lake of fire he may be found between Crocodilopolis and Heracleopolis, sight of the battles between Set and Osiris." [Pages 140-142 'Serpent in the Sky'].

As seen from a different perspective: "The Music of the Spheres gives us an insight into the cosmic order which is far more than mere planetary correspondence. If we skilfully strike the seven stringed lyre of our being, we resonate with the Music of the Spheres so that microcosm and macrocosm sound in harmony: 'Were it not for the order of the music hidden we should be claimed by the 'void', writes Ronald Duncan. The seven strings of the lyre correspond indeed to the seven planets....A hypothetical 'eighth sphere' was envisaged to correspond to the octave whereby the scale of creation is closed."

"But what is central about the story is not that it is factual but that it is true. In other words the story of Exodus is a story that embodies some of the deepest and profoundest truths of the human condition : What it is to be in the 'wilderness'. What it is to hope for the 'promised' land. What it is to escape 'slavery' - and to be both bewildered and exhilarated by the prospect of freedom. This is a story that's a 'sacred' story i.e.,inspired by 'god'. So the story of Exodus can be a story by which we read our lives even if there were not 600,000 that left Egypt - or even 5 - or even none." Rabbi David Wolpe. [Satellite TV.

Side note. ''Inspired'' in relation to Part 1. And/or what ''six'' represents.

"Six, the number of the material world and therefore of time and space, is the number chosen by the Egyptians to symbolize temporal and spacial phenomena...Volume requires six directions of extension to define it: up and down, backwards and forwards, left and right. So in Egypt, the cube, the perfect six sided figure, was used as the symbol for actualization in space; the cube is the symbol for volume. Pharaoh sits squarely upon his throne, which is a cube...Six is also symbolized by the Hexagon...In Egypt, Schwaller de Lubicz found that the dimensions of certain specific halls of the Temple of Luxor were determined by the geometric gereration of the Hexagon FROM the pentagon. This is a symbolic expression of the materialisation of matter from the spiritual creative act..." ['Serpent in the Sky: The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt' / J. West].

A side STEP: 'Mindfulness' by Mark Williams. ''Old wisdom for modern times.'' Quote on the same [BBC World Service. March 2015]. Today's new 'fad' on those ancient principles of Buddhism. Or more importantly what this subject has always referred to as 'meditation.' Its true intent. Both 'inner' and 'outer' Benefit of. The result of both however becomes the same - an understanding of the 'self'. The Micro within the Macro.

"You can't stop the triggering of unhappy memories, negative self talk and judgmental ways of thinking - but what you can stop is what happens next. You can stop the vicious cycle from feeding off itself and triggering the next spiral of negative thoughts. And you can do this by harnessing an alternative way of relating to yourself and the world. The mind can do so much more than simply analyse problems with its Doing mode, [the author defines that 'mode' with automatic / habitual thinking,i.e.,without taking 'time out' to reassess in the present moment]. The problem is that we use the Doing mode so much, we can't see that there is an alternative. Yet there is another way. If you stop and reflect for a moment, [i.e.,the ''present'' one. This readers input] - the mind just doesn't think. It can also be aware that it is thinking. This form of pure awareness allows you to experience the world directly. It's bigger than thinking. Its unclouded by your thoughts, feelings and emotions. It's like a high mountain - a vantage point - from which you can see everything from many miles around, [the author defines that state of thinking as ''Being'' mode. This subject defines it as ''Guardian of the Gate''].

Pure awareness transcends thinking. It allows you to step outside the chattering negative self-talk and your reactive impulses and emotions. It allows you to look at the world once again with open eyes. And when you do so, a sense of wonder and quiet contentment begins to reappear in your life." [Chapter 2, 'Mindfulness' by M. Williams and D. Penman]. Think about it - mountain/valley - higher/lower - subjective / objective - with an understanding in mind - both inner and outer - micro and macro - in relation to the full / whole 'journey'. For a further head scratch compare {i.e.,alternative 'viewpoint'} to the ''Arthur'' information in Part 1. Then try ''notch'' and ''angle'' - all pages.

"Being. Being is. Being is in-itself. Being is what it is. Being includes both Being in-itself and Being-for-itself, but the later is the annihilation of the former.

We set out in search of the hidden knowledge and power we believe the secret will confer - only to find on the way that these things are images of a wisdom and glory we did not dream of in the beginning. The secret i have tried to reveal on every other page of this book is in a sense no secret - it is an open secret passed along a Golden Chain of initiates, like the secrets of the Greek Mysteries. And as to 'its' philosophy, by whose assistance these mysteries are developed - it will make its appearance at different periods of time, as long as the sun himself shall continue to illuminate the world..."

Recall another example in the ''Help'' section.

A working example: "When a group is being organized its members have certain conditions put before them; in the first place, conditions general for all members, and secondly, individual conditions for individual members. General conditions at the beginning of the work are usually of the following kind. First of all it is explained to all of the members of a group, that they must keep secret everything that they hear or learn...This is an indispensable condition whose idea should be clear to them from the very beginning. In other words, it should be clear to them that in this there is no attempt whatever to make a secret of what is not essentially a secret, neither is there any deliberate intention to derive them of the right to exchange views with those near to them or with their friends. The idea of this restriction consists in the fact that they are unable to transmit correctly what is said in the groups. They very soon begin to learn from their own personal experience how much effort, how much time, and how much explaining is necessary in order to grasp what is said in groups. It becomes clear to them that they are unable to give their friends a right idea of what they have learned themselves. At the same time they also begin to understand that by giving their friends wrong ideas they shut them off from any possibility of approaching the work at any time or of understanding anything in connection with the work...If a man in spite of this tries to transmit what he hears in groups to his friends he will very quickly be convinced that attempts in this direction give entirely unexpected and undesirable results. Either people begin to argue with him and without wanting to listen to him expect him to listen to their theories , or they misinterpret everything he tells them, attach an entirely different meaning to everything they hear from him." ['In Search of the Miraculous'].

Analogy of same - "...the 'magic' of the constant work of service done in silence - this it is a matter of. A secret then? Not at all, for a private thing is not a secret thing. The private life is not a secret life. Silence as the essential condition for intimate work [or study. This readers input], is in no way equivalent to a jealously guarded secret. Just as Trappist monks maintain silence without anyone suspecting them of wanting to keep secrets, so is the community composed of Hermeticists [or any 'subject' that relates to the 'whole'. This readers input] - scattered in the world has the right to be silent, in order to maintain the atmosphere of privacy essential for its work, without it being suspected of dark secrets. Authentic spiritual life requires the inviolable sanctuary of privacy - which has nothing in common with ''initiation secrets" or those of ''secret societies", whose secrets, furthermore, inevitably become ''open secrets''. [Extract from the book by Tomberg].

A {working?} example: "Are there any conditions for joining your group?'' I asked. ''And is a man who joins it tied to it and to you? In other words i want to know if he is free to go and leave your work, or does he take definite obligations upon himself? And how do you act towards him if he does not carry out his obligations.''......''There are no conditions of any kind,'' said G., ''and there cannot be any. Our starting point is that man does not know himself, that he is not what he can and what he should be. For this reason he cannot make any agreements or assume any obligations...Today he is one person and tomorrow another...He is in no way bound to us and if he likes he can at any time leave the work and go...If he likes he can study. He will have to study for a long time, and work a great deal on himself. When he has learned enough, then it is a different matter. He will see for himself whether he likes our work or not. If he wishes he can work with us; if not he may go away. Up to that moment he is free...For instance take one point. A situation may arise, not, of course, in the beginning, but later on, when a man has to preserve secrecy, even if only for a time, about something he has learned. But can a man who does not know himself promise to keep a secret? Of course he can promise to do so, but can he keep his promise? For he is not one, there are many different people in him. One in him promises, and believes that he wants to keep the secret. But tomorrow another in him will tell it to his wife, or to a friend over a bottle of wine, or a clever man may question him in such a way that he himself will not notice that he is letting out everything. No with such a man we will not take seriously. To be able to keep a secret a man must know himself and he must 'be'. Such men are a very far from this. Sometimes we make temporary conditions with people as a test. Usually they are broken very soon but we never give any serious secret to a man we don't trust, so it does not matter much..." ['In Search of the Miraculous'].

Analogy; with same principle in mind..."The secrecy of which we speak is that of Hermeticism; a true seal on the vessel in which calcination - the slow fire - is taking place. Like a pressure cooker, our work must be regulated and not opened to the outer lest the pressure be entirely lost to the environment. In maintaining a secret, we easily and efficiently provide ourselves such pressure - an inner dynamic that maintains the work in which we are engaged. It leads to results, whereas openly speaking to all and sundry about our views, practices and values does not lead to anything useful at all. The ancient Egyptian god-form given for Neophyte in the Golden Dawn is that of Harpocrates, the child god of innocence, with his fingers to his lips - the universal sign of silence."

''External silence is sought in order to attain inner stillness of mind more easily." ['Wisdom of the 4th Way'].

Side note: "Kircher and others believed the Gemini Twins intimately associated with Horus the Elder and Horus the Younger and Harpocrates of Greece. The twins were placed in the sky by Jove, in reward for their brotherly love, so strongly manifested while on earth."

''A planet designated as Jovian is hence a gas giant, composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gas with varying degrees of heavier elements. In addition to having large systems of moons, these planets each have their own ring systems as well....These are terms students may encounter while doing further research on the planets in the solar system: Jovian planets: The outer planets of our solar system: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.''

Continued..."As with all such information, only experience can enliven you and teach you in this work. We are each our own crucible and alchemical vessel, and our work must be hermetically sealed {with secrecy and silence} in order to accomplish any substantial progress. Our souls must have no leak at the seam." [Extracts from the book 'The Magister' : including parenthesis]. As improbable as it may seem {first impressions?} try ''leak''. Its representation.

Proving the viability of study - in ''whole'' that is - not just 'its' parts. It being at least on par [if only to this reader] with the ritual stuff. The word ''experience'' being used to identify same, i.e.,knowledge acquired within those ''mystery schools''. Being taught how to access those ''altered states'' [within] to define something {archetypes?}. Shamanism: the same. That something [i.e.,results of] that has been written about for countless generations. That has always been represented in one form or another with ''keys'' and ''signs''.

That same word [''experience''] could also be used to define [by study] the word ''synchronicity'' - its meaning and purpose to the subject as a WHOLE, i.e.,to each individual - regardless of ones chosen ''path''. Regardless of how it may ''cross ones path''. The how and the why - Past present and future.

"A more {practical?} analogy..."From Hermopolis, city of Hermes {Thoth}, master of Writing, Numbers, Measurement and Time, comes the description of the Nun, the primordial environment, picturing 'its' qualities and characteristics: 'He {the Demiurge} created the 'eight'. He formed its body as that of a sacred child who issues forth from a lotus in the middle of the Nun.' [Enlarged elsewhere].

Recall, who shared those ''boundaries'' of Hermopolis {i.e.,15th Nome}. Put those parts {keys} together to define the whole. Including the word ''demiurge''. All as a representation of something. That ''something'' that educates those first impressions.

Refresher: "The water which appeared with creation, carrying the dark hillock Tum {Atum}, becomes the object of the Hermopolitan teaching. The sacred name of Hermopolis, fifteenth nome of Upper Egypt, was Khemenu, the city of the Eight, meaning eight Primordials; its civil name was Un, meaning ''existence''. ['Sacred Science'].

''Existence'' in relation to something more substantial {by way of say a eureka moment} = 'mound'? AS A REPRESENTATION OF SOMETHING.

This is all part of human nature, 'old Adam and Eve'. The 'sins of the soul' and the body can only be purified by the ''Lord'' sitting on his ''throne''. A Christian struggles to beat this 'legion' and to prepare the way for the 'spirit', the Lord.

Working example: "Modern Chester was founded in around 74 AD as the Roman legionary fortress of Deva, later acquiring part of the name of the {'Twenty'} Legion to become Deva Victrix. It clearly had a large number of impressive Roman buildings, perhaps more impressive than most Roman cities in Britain. Deva was 20% bigger than the other legionary fortresses in Roman Britain (e.g. Eboracum, modern York), and contained the enigmatic Elliptical Building, so far unique in the Empire. The purpose of the Elliptical Building remains unknown, but it must have been an impressive structure in its day. Chester also had the usual components of a legionary fortress, including a headquarters building (principia), smart houses for the commander (praetorium) and senior officers, amphitheatre, stone defensive walls and a main baths building (thermae), not to mention a large harbour and a bridge crossing the River Dee. How much of this was still standing in the seventh century, and can we tell if people were still using it for anything?"

The "Elliptical" buildings were located near the centre of the fortress and they had their own bath buildings and a range of store rooms around the outside. The presence of a second bath building is unusual because legionary fortresses generally had just one set of internal baths."

Analogy: "The Struthion Pool, effectually translated from the Greek as 'Sparrow Pool'^[1] (Aramaic: אשווח צפרא) is a large cuboid cistern beneath the Convent of the Sisters of Zion in the Old City of Jerusalem, built by Herod the Great in the first century BCE....Lying at the foot of the rock scarp that once bore the Antonia Fortress, the pool is located at the northwestern corner of Jerusalem's Temple Mount. Measuring 52 by 14 metres, the pool is oriented from northwest to southeast, with its depth increasing from 4.5 metres in the north to 6 metres in the south {i.e., 'UPHILL' from the south}. The pool's long eastern and western walls are not horizontal^{[dubious – discuss]} but also drop steadily to the south. Once open-aired, the pool was accessible along both long walls by a series of rock-cut steps covered by waterproof mortar composed of chalk and ashes."

And/or: "Like Philo, Josephus testifies that the Roman governors stayed in Herod's palace while they were in Jerusalem, and carrying out their judgements on the pavement immediately outside it; Josephus indicates that Herod's palace is on the western hill, and it has recently (2001) been rediscovered under a corner of the Jaffa Gate citadel. Archaeologists now therefore conclude that in the first century, the Praetorium - the residence of the governor (Praetor) - was on the western hill, rather than the Antonia Fortress, on the diametrically opposite side of the city.

Although many modern reconstructions often depict the fortress as having a tower at each of four corners, the historian Josephus repeatedly refers to it as the tower Antonia, and stated that it had been built by John Hyrcanus for storing the vestments used in the Temple. Archaeologists are of the opinion that the fortress was only a single tower, located at the south-east corner of the site; for example, Pierre Benoit, former professor of New Testament studies at the École Biblique, having carried out extensive archaeological studies of the site, concurs and adds that there is absolutely no support for there having been four towers.....

Josephus placed the Antonia at the Northwest corner of the colonnades surrounding the Temple. Modern depictions often show the Antonia as being located along the North side of the temple enclosure. However, Josephus' description of the siege of Jerusalem suggests that it was separated from the temple enclosure itself and probably connected by two colonnades with a narrow space between them. Josephus' measurements suggest about a 600 foot separation between the two complexes."

Side note: "And a letter unto Asaph the keeper of the kings forest, that he may give me timber to make the beams for the gates of the palace {citadel} which appertained to the house {temple}, and for the wall of the city, and for the house i shall enter into." [Nehemiah 2:8].

"The palace actually was a fortress or tower and may have been Hananeel's mentioned in 3:1. It protected the temple and overlooked the N/W corner of its courts. Hyrcanus I built an acropolis here, and later Herod rebuilt it and named it Antonia. "The house that i enter" is the governors home." [same].

"Nehemiah {cupbearer to the king} means 'The Lord Comforts'....He became a legendary figure in later Jewish literature especially in the "twentieth year of Artaxerxes"}. Shushan the palace, or better 'Susa the citadel' was the winter resort of the Persian kings. In 478 BC., Esther became Xerxes Queen in this palace....Daniel was carried there in a vision."

'Twenty'.

"Asaph is the name of three men in the Old Testament¹². One of them was a musician and singer who served as a court musician for King David and wrote many of the Psalms²³⁴. He is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 6:33–41, Psalms 73:1–19 and 84:1–12, and other passages³⁴. Another Asaph was the keeper of the king's forests or royal park in the time of Nehemiah⁵. The third Asaph is not clearly identified."

Continued: "Once open-aired, the pool was later covered by two longitudinal barrel vaults that spring from the side walls and connect on a wall running along the center of the pool pierced by a series of arches. This division is the source of another name given to the Struthion, the Twin Pools. The two vaults were built to support a large flagstone pavement that covered the area above the pool. This pavement features shallow channels that carried runoff water into the pool as well as masonry manholes....

Opinions differ as to the dating and origin of the pavement. Originally thought to be contemporary with the construction of the pool and thus to belong to the Antonia Fortress, re-examination of archaeological data by Father Pierre Benoit has prompted a revision of its dating. The vaults and pavement are rather thought to be contemporary with the nearby Ecce homo arch, originally a triumphal arch constructed by Emperor Hadrian, and thus assigned to the 2nd century CE. This reasoning seems to be supported by Josephus' account of the siege of the Antonia, although whether Josephus had meant a ramp had been built in, over or opposite the middle of the pool remains unclear."

"The Antonia Fortress (Aramaic: קצטרא דאנטוניה)^[a] was a citadel built by Herod the Great and named for Herod's patron Mark Antony, as a fortress whose chief function was to protect the Second Temple. It was built in Jerusalem at the eastern end of the so-called Second Wall, at the north-western corner of the Temple Mount."

"The pool was apparently built by Herod the Great during his construction of the Antonia and the renovation of the Temple Mount in the late first century BCE. The only pool known to stand in close association with the site of the Antonia, there is little doubt that it was constructed no later than the fashioning of the rock scarp above it, as the orientation of the pool conditioned a slight directional change in the rock podium's northeastern corner. It is therefore identified with the Struthius or Struthion ('sparrow') pool mentioned by Josephus in his description of Titus' siege of the Antonia during the Great Revolt (70 CE): For there were now four great banks raised, one of which was at the tower Antonia; this was raised by the fifth legion, over against the middle of that pool which was called Struthius." [ Josephus, The Jewish War V. 46].

Side note:  "The secret within the secret cannot be dispensed with from start to finish. This is what is called cleaning the mind, washing the thoughts, which is "bathing." The learning of sages begins with knowledge when to stop and ends with stopping at ultimate good. It begins in the infinite and winds up in the infinite. In Buddhism, activating the mind without dwelling on anything is considered the essential message of the whole cannon. In Taoism, "effecting openness" is the whole work of completing essence and life. In sum, the three teachings are not beyond the one saying, which is a spiritual pill that gets one out of death and preserves life. What is the spiritual pill? It just means to be unminding in all situations. The greatest secret in Taoism is "bathing." Thus the whole practice described in this book does not go beyond the words "emptiness of mind." It is enough to understand this. This single statement can save decades of seeking." [Page 46 'The Secret of the Golden Flower'].

Continued: "Antonius is the nomen of the gens Antonia, an important plebeian family of ancient Rome. Marcus Antonius claimed that the gens was descended from Anton, a son of Hercules. Women of the family were called Antonia. The Antonii produced a number of important generals and politicians."

"A laconic phrase or laconism is a concise or terse statement, especially a blunt and elliptical rejoinder.^[1][2] It is named after Laconia, the region of Greece including the city of Sparta, whose ancient inhabitants had a reputation for verbal austerity and were famous for their often pithy remarks."

Question. For this subject to be accepted within the educational system [if ever] what would be the best method? i.e., everything learned; regardless of intent/interest [or lack of both] becomes part of the individual - if only [within] the subconscious. Everything - sooner or later thereafter- emerges from it. The slow but sure way? Try ''butterfly''.

"When the value represented by the symbol has been entirely explored and made conscious its power leaves it, and the object which held the meaning of the symbol becomes only a natural object once more. But while its 'power' lasts the symbol is the representative of an unknown truth. It rises spontaneously from the depths of the unconscious and expresses or manifests the hidden fact in an image whose meaning can only be partly grasped by consciousness." [Chapter 6, 'Women's Mysteries: Ancient and Modern'. Mentioned elsewhere]. Think about in relation to what the word 'incarnation' implies. Found within.

Question. Does not the above - in one form or another apply to ALL information? Regardless of subject? Those bit and pieces of 'information' [over a period of time] = a realisation. Foundations of?

A work in progress: ''What i want to point out is the desert being so dry. Yet it flourishes with JUST ONE DROP OF WATER. A visual example of gods grace.'' [K. Nichols. Pilgrimage of Grace. Lent 2022: 'Day 21: A Priest Forever, According to the Line of Melchizedek: Essene Ruins Qumran'].

"We must first consider the difference between the evaluation of a course of study and its assessment. The evaluation of a curriculum in the secular sense is the process by which the 'nature and desirability' of a course is given 'value or worth'; but to define the extent to which a course is 'workable and effective' requires a form - or forms - of assessment. These forms of assessment create the basis for the evaluation of the effectiveness of a course in meeting the intended aim specified by those who create the course, understood by those teaching it, and received by those learning." [Extract from the book 'The Magister'].

The ''READERS Way'' works just as well as any other 'way' - the results of which should bring about a positive assessment for the subject as a whole - as proven - if any of those ''proofs'' are verified. Yes or No?

Example of :{one example}: "...Because a modern man lives in 'sleep' {unknown/unaware link}, what knowledge therefore can a sleeping man have? And if you think about it and at the same time remember that sleep is the chief feature of our being, it will at once become clear to you that if a man really wants knowledge, he must first of all think about how to wake, that is, about how to change his being...Therefore a man who wants to awake must look for other people who also want to awake and work together with them. This, however, is easier said than done because to start such work and to organize it requires a 'knowledge' which an ordinary man cannot possess. The work must be organized and it must have a leader {teacher?}. Only then will it produce the results expected of it...It can be organized only by a man {or men/women} who know its problems and its aims, who know its methods; by a man {or woman} who has in his {her} time passed through such organized work him {her}self. A man usually begins his studies in a small group {class?}. This group is generally connected with a whole series of similar groups on different levels {curriculum?} which, taken together, constitute what may be called a 'preparatory school'..." ['In Search of the Miraculous'. Parenthesis, emphasis, this readers].

Question. Could one not apply the above description to a teaching method - of ANY subject - in say - a school curriculum - which ALL subjects prove, in one form or another. The beginning and finishing within a school education? Just one more subject.

And like all subjects some we like more than others. Some we take exams in. Some we don't. Most we remember. Some we don't - but even the ones we take a less {forgetful?} interest in - if only in those early years - we can still - if and when necessary - recall the basics - which is helpful if that latent interest is reignited - maybe in later years.

"But of what use is it to him if he does not remember?'' said one of us. "Essence remembers.'' said G. ''personality may forget..." Same book.

And/or: "A word needs to be said about proof of authority. In the 'New Pearl of Great Price', said to be penned around 1330 by a certain Petrus Bonus of Ferrara and edited by a Franciscan friar {pseudonym}, the author states explicitly: ''We may prove the truth of our Art {1} By the testimony of the Sages {2} By the most forcible arguments {3} By analogy, and manifest examples.'' ...And although we would like to believe that our modern, sophisticated logic is immune to such persuasions, we know that's not true. Our entire educational system is based on proof by authority. Moreover, proof by authority carries its own proofs - it builds - one authority on another. So it was that the alchemists believed Bonus, and Bonus based his beliefs on 'Anaxagoras, Socrates, Plato, Geber, Rhasis, Homer and many others..."

A working example: "getting into our 'car', intending to drive back to Ferrara, where we wanted to examine once again the most impressive of the early Renaissance astrological fresco's in Italy...Because the lowest register of the fresco is within easy reach, it has suffered the most damage...This same triple arrangement was maintained in the area depicting September -  properly the sign of Libra...The mythological register was of more immediate interest to us, however, for the god in the chariot is Vulcan, who introduced mankind to alchemy. His chariot is drawn by 'monkeys', and we find ourselves wondering if the artists would have known that this association went back to the hermetic literature of Thoth, as a monkey 'faced' god. To the right are the physical alchemists, beating iron - perhaps a reference to the name Ferrara, the place where 'iron' is worked. To the right of Vulcan's chariot {'car'?} are a pair of what appears to be sleepers...The couple are far from being asleep, however. They are 'lovers' creating a 'civilization' through their passion...The secret of this couple of lovers is shown on the other side of Vulcan's chariot. In the sky {which is to say, in the spiritual sense of the word} hovers a 'shield'. It looks like a doorway into space: on it is painted the she-wolf suckling the 'twins' Romulus and Remus - founders of Rome...['The Zelator' / M. Hedsel. Emphasis, this readers].

All as a means for the author to decode what he describes as the 'Nicholas code'...

The main point being {if only to this reader} that the study of a subject gives the same result - but most importantly - it gives the reader an idea as to the intent and the 'beliefs' of ALL who participate in the same subject - ALL the way back in time - since 'modern' man/woman {Neanderthal?} began to {think?}. In other words - whether we like {the subject?} or not it gives us an insight into what man/woman first began to {believe?} in. It gives us an insight into an aspect of their {beliefs?}. It becomes therefore - does it not - an aspect of Anthropology. That 'aspect' -  which we know very little about. That aspect - which has not as yet even been taken into ACCOUNT.

A working example: ''One book opens another: the philosopher tells us truly. There is no understanding of the Art without long and anxious study of those texts in which the 'angelic' keys to our Philosophy are concealed. However, to the uninitiated eye, the bogus recipes of some imbecile puffer can appear as wise as the works of the Bridlington Canon {i.e., Ripley}. [Page 55 'Mercurius' / P. Harpur].

Question. Hocus pocus or a genuine mind set?

Side note: ''....mans life is short if we consider the 'stair' he has to climb, and his brain is the most obstinate monkey there is! If his heart rules him {'grace'?}, his conscience will soon take the place of the rod..." [Page 118 'Her-Bak: The Living Face of Egypt' / Isha Schwaller de Lubicz].

"Stair" in relation to 'steep'. Saqqara {Step pyramid} in relation to the Giza complex. South - North. Get into a ''mindset'' to attempt an understanding to such monuments as the 'Bent' pyramid. Two 'chambers' within {''voids''?}. Both corbelled. Inclining towards each other. The edges of the 'higher' one deliberately scuffed out. The conclusion being mistakes made by the workmen.

Higher/lower? The 'higher' one not yet achieved. Lessor/Greater Mysteries? Only 'completed' in the ''Red'' one? 'Spirit' only?

"You can follow two paths in the mountains, Her-Bak,'' said the sage. ''The first winds round it with many a twist, exploring; the slope is gentle, the ascent easy, varied, amusing. This path avoids points of danger. It never attacks the Peak {of silence?} and halts at shelters known to be safe. The other is steep {cliff? and/or ''corbelled''}, takes each phase of the climb without detour, skirts precipices {'overhangs'?} and reaches a summit that is only accessible to a man who can face naked sunlight and danger. Which path will you choose Her-Bak?'' [Page 89 'Her-Bak: Egyptian Initiate' / Isha Schwaller de Lubicz].

"Cepheus is a constellation in the far northern sky, named after Cepheus, a king of Aethiopia in Greek mythology. It is one of the 48 constellations listed by the second century astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 constellations in the modern times...Cepheus was the King of Aethiopia. He was married to Cassiopeia and was the father of Andromeda, both of whom are immortalized as modern day constellations along with Cepheus....

The constellation's brightest star is Alpha Cephei, with an apparent magnitude of 2.5. Delta Cephei is the prototype of an important class of star known as a Cepheid variable. RW Cephei, an orange hypergiant."

And/or: "Adam McLean has suggested an alternative source for the development of European Tarot - one which is essentially Western in origin. His study of the Mantegna tarot is persuasive. These cards which number 50 in total, emanate from the school of Ferrara and are based upon the Platonic academies of the mid-fifteenth century Renaissance. The cards are split into five decades, representing A}: the conditions of life from beggar to pope; B}: the nine muses and Apollo; C}: the seven liberal arts, including philosophy, poetry and theology; D}: the seven cardinal virtues, with the spirits of astronomy, chronology and cosmology; and E}: the celestial hierarchy of the seven planets together with the eighth sphere...."

M....The possible relationship between science and that individual journey A-C. Especially in relation to the ‘Fine Structure Constant'. Represented by the number 137, [a number that is also significant with the Kabbalah]. That same number that amongst others Wolfgang Pauli spent many years trying to understand. That same number that he felt compelled to discuss; amongst other things; with the psychiatrist Jung. The same number that on the day he ‘died’ was found to be his own hospital room number. That relationship to ‘Synchronicity’. That same link to ‘The Book Of Job’, [purpose of]. "Yet in my flesh shall i 'see' god'." [Job 19:26].

Can you 'see' what is being implied - ONLY.

Analogy? of same..."Once the Numerologist went to see the Academy Award film, 'Charley,' with a friend who was particularly dubious about this '23' obsession. The story of the film concerns a low grade moron {IQ around 70} who is transformed by neuro-surgery into a superhuman genius {IQ around 200+}. In the crucial operation scene, the number on the operating room is visible, and it is of course, 23." [Extract from the book 'The Cosmic Trigger'].

 

The author attempting to understand its {i.e.,23} significance in his daily life. Gives countless examples. In the same book he believes he has deciphered A. Crowleys riddle within the 'Book of Lies,' that therein lies the secret of Freemasonry. i.e.,chapter 69. What he fails to mention {or see?} is 69 = 23x3. He does the same when explaining the origins of Crowley's 'Book of Law' by way of links {i.e., coincidences and/or synchronistic ones} - between Egypt; Rose {i.e.,Crowleys first wife} Horus; Winged globe; all together with Crowleys special number of 666. Finally culminating on page 111 with a connection to the Nommo archetype {enlarged elsewhere}. What he fails to 'see' {or does not mention} is that pages number to 666 - i.e.,the magical square of 111 - and that link to what is implied to the ''beast that rises in the East'' {origin of Crowleys alias?}. Lastly; what comes around, goes around - speculation within the same book, i.e.,'Cosmic Trigger' - BUT NOT by the author {i.e.,'Afterwords' by Saul-Paul Sirag} - on Eddingtons ''approach'' to derive the proton-electron mass ratio {137 link} i.e., ''Eddington believes the lesson from physics and especially from quantum mechanics is that insofar as we can describe the world at all we are necessary describing the structure of our own minds."

Coincidence and synchronicity - ''hand in hand?'' i.e.,physical coincidences represented with the number 23 But once that ''connection'' is made {enlarged elsewhere} = ''synchronicities''? Understanding that universal framework gives that HYPOTHESIS a legitimate possibility. NOTHING MORE.

"In Europe, 66 is known mainly as the name of a card game. However, in the Islamic 'mystical' tradition it corresponds to the numerical value of the word Allah. Hence, Turkish Sufi's would explain the predominance of the tulip in Turkish art, as well as the emblem of Islam, the crescent moon, by the fact that the names of these 2 motifs, lalah and hilal respectively, consist of the same letters and have the same numerical value as Allah. Sixty-six can also be seen as a duplication of 6, or as a number in the second 'power' {as is the case with many similar numbers - 44, 77, etc.,}. ['Mystery of Numbers'. Emphasis, this readers].

Side note: "Since excavations began in 2008 on the acropolis of Bylazora, a great deal has been unearthed: a monumental ramp (part of a propylon), a defensive wall, a large amount of pottery, and a multitude of objects of iron, bronze, stone and terracotta. Among these finds was a tool discovered in the 2009 season, which we initially identified as an iron hook (Figure 1), of a peculiar shape and of an unknown use. However, after an exhaustive study, we now suspect that it might be a votive key. The key found in Bylazora corresponds to a very archaic type, made entirely of iron, about 20 cm. long and hook-shaped..This kind of key has been found in Hera sanctuaries in Argos  and Paestum (both in the city and in the rural sanctuary of Foce del Sele). They have also been discovered in other sanctuaries:  of Aphaia on Aegina and in the Corycia Cave of Delphi, the ancient sacred center of Pan and the Nymphs. Some scholars have suggested that this type of key, found in the context of temples and shrines, may have been used to open the great doors of the houses of the gods...

A working example: ''As visitors to Persepolis, capital of the Persian Achaemenid Empire, entered the city, they would approach a stone terrace on which a palatial precinct rose forty feet above the fertile flatlands at the foot of Kuh-i-Rahmat, the Mountain of Mercy....They would ascend sixtythree limestone steps, pivot on a landing {'64'?}, then climb another fortyeight steps {111 in total}, to an imposing threshold known since antiquity as the Gate of All Nations. Flanking the four storey tall gate were statues of lamassu, winged bulls with human heads and curly {'goaty'?} beards. The great city {'new one'?} was founded by the Persian king Darius I around 518 BC in present day Iran....

Travellers would have continued through the gate onto the royal terrace, a massive thirty foot platform {'Pavilion' / 'Tower'?}, filled with spacious meeting halls and palaces where reliefs depict kings receiving attendants and taming fierce creatures....The terrace's largest building was called the Apadana, or Audience Palace, featured seventytwo columns and a central court for royal festivities {'feasting'?}. Along the buildings staircases, reliefs portrayed Achaemenid guards and nobles ushering TWENTYTHREE delegations of different foreign peoples.'' [Pages 25/6 'Archaeology' / July-August 2023].

Side note: "Very little is known about the first 20 years the painters life and there are many gaps concerning his later life and career. He was baptized on February 17, 1591, in Játiva, Spain, his father identified as a shoemaker. He is not recorded again until 1611, when records show he was paid for a painting (now lost) for a church in Parma, Italy. Documents show he was a member of the Accademia di San Luca in Rome by October 1613 and living in a house in the Via Margutta in 1615–16, at that time known as "the foreigner's quarter", apparently living a bohemian life with his brothers and other artists. Anecdotal accounts written at the time indicate he quickly earned a reputation as an outstanding painter after arriving in Rome and was earning great profits, but also noted his laziness and extravagant spending."

And/or: ''The Forbidden City. The fifth wonder of the Silk Road. An elaborate palace metropolis, built 600 years ago by China's new emperor, Yongle, near the frontier of his empire.{Beijing}...Lifting up the Hall of Preserved Harmony reveals an array of massive stones. The Emperor's Audience Chamber sits on a twentysix foot marble base. Inside sixty stone blocks with reinforced packed earth - with more layers on top - the center of this base {foundation?} becomes the platform for a massive marble staircase engraved with toothed dragons, cranes and phoenix's. The dragon and crane represent the Emperor and Empress flying above the waves, symbolising the Imperial court'' ['Blowing up History' / S7 EP15].

CORRECTION: ''The Hall of Supreme Harmony (Chinese: 太和殿; pinyin: Tài Hé Diàn; Manchu: ᠠᠮᠪᠠ
ᡡᠸᠠᠯᡳᠶᠠᠮᠪᡠᡵᡝ
ᡩᡝᠶᡝᠨ;Möllendorff: amba hūwaliyambure deyen) is the largest hall within the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. It is located at its central axis, behind the Gate of Supreme Harmony. Built above three levels of marble stone base, and surrounded by bronze incense burners, the Hall of Supreme Harmony is one of the largest wooden structures within China. It was the location where the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties hosted their enthronement and wedding ceremonies. The name of the Hall was changed several times throughout the past few centuries, from its initial Fengtian Dian (奉天殿), later to Huangji Dian (皇极殿) in 1562 and to the current one by the Shunzhi Emperor of the Qing dynasty in 1645.

Together with the Hall of Central Harmony and Hall of Preserving Harmony, the three halls constitute the heart of the Outer Court of the Forbidden City.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony rises some 30 metres (98 ft) above the level of the surrounding square. It is the ceremonial center of imperial power, and the largest surviving wooden structure in China. It is eleven bays wide – with the main room being nine bays wide – and five bays deep, the numbers nine and five being symbolically connected to the majesty of the Emperor.^[1] The six pillars nearest the imperial throne are covered with gold, and the entire area is decorated with a dragon motif. The Dragon Throne, in particular, has five dragons coiled around the back and handrests. The screen behind it features sets of nine dragons, again reflecting the "nine-five" symbolism.^[2] The Hall of Supreme Harmony features an exquisite throne made of red sandalwood, and formerly used by the emperors of the Qing dynasty.

Set into the ceiling directly above the throne is an intricate caisson decorated with a coiled dragon, from the mouth of which issues a chandelier-like set of metal balls, called the "Xuanyuan Mirror", a reference to the Yellow Emperor, a mythological Chinese ruler.^[3] According to legend, the metal balls will fall and strike dead any usurper to the throne.''

''The common English name "Forbidden City" is a translation of the Chinese name Zijin Cheng (Chinese: 紫禁城; pinyin: Zǐjìnchéng; lit. 'Purple Forbidden City'). The name Zijin Cheng first formally appeared in 1576.^[10] Another English name of similar origin is "Forbidden Palace".^[11]

The name "Zijin Cheng" is a name with significance on many levels. Zi, or "Purple", refers to the North Star, which in ancient China was called the Ziwei Star, and in traditional Chinese astrology was the heavenly abode of the Celestial Emperor. The surrounding celestial region, the Ziwei Enclosure (Chinese: 紫微垣; pinyin: Zǐwēiyuán), was the realm of the Celestial Emperor and his family. The Forbidden City, as the residence of the terrestrial emperor, was its earthly counterpart. Jin refers to a prohibition or taboo (often used in signs saying "no entry" or "no smoking" or "X is prohibited"). Cheng originally meant a castle, fortress, or fortification, but in modern Chinese, the character means city.

Today, the site is most commonly known in Chinese as Gùgōng (故宫), which means the "Former Palace".^[12] The museum which is based in these buildings is known as the "Palace museum" (Chinese: 故宫博物院; pinyin: Gùgōng Bówùyùan).

In Ming and Qing, the Forbidden City was also known as Da Nei (大内) or "Palace City" (宫城).''

And/or: ''Over the past 3,000 years, the city of Beijing has had numerous other names. The name Beijing, which means "Northern Capital" (from the Chinese characters 北 běi for north and 京 jīng for capital), was applied to the city in 1403 during the Ming dynasty to distinguish the city from Nanjing (the "Southern Capital").^[31] The English spelling Beijing is based on the government's official romanization (adopted in the 1980s) of the two characters as they are pronounced in Standard Mandarin. An older English spelling, Peking, was used by Jesuit missionary Martino Martini in a popular atlas published in Amsterdam in 1655.^[32] Although Peking is no longer the common name for the city, some of the city's older locations and facilities, such as Beijing Capital International Airport, with the IATA code PEK, and Peking University, still retain the former romanization.''

Side note: ''In architecture, pavilion has several meanings: It may be a subsidiary building that is either positioned separately or as an attachment to a main building. Often it is associated with pleasure.^[1] In palaces and traditional mansions of Asia, there may be pavilions that are either freestanding or connected by covered walkways, as in the Forbidden City (Chinese pavilions), Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, and in Mughal buildings like the Red Fort.

  Double Crown.

  As part of a large palace, pavilions may be symmetrically placed building blocks that flank (appear to join) a main building block or the outer ends of wings extending from both sides of a central building block, the corps de logis. Such configurations provide an emphatic visual termination to the composition of a large building, akin to bookends.

The word is from French pavillon (Old French paveillon) and it meant a small palace,^[2] from Latin papilionem (accusative of papilio). In Late Latin and Old French, it meant both ‘butterfly’ and ‘tent’, because the canvas of a tent resembled a butterfly's spread wings.^[3][4]

The word is from the early 13c., paviloun, "large, stately tent raised on posts and used as a movable habitation," from Old French paveillon "large tent; butterfly."

A working example: "Briars is the small pavilion in which Napoleon Bonaparte stayed for the first few weeks of his exile on Saint Helena in late 1815 before being moved to Longwood House. The pavilion was in the garden of William Balcombe, an English merchant who became a purveyor to Napoleon....In 1827 the East India Company bought the property for £6,000 and used it for making silk and growing mulberry trees. In 1959 the Pavilion was purchased by Dame Mabel Brookes, a great granddaughter of William Balcombe, and donated it to the French government, which appointed her as Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur in 1960 in recognition of her generous gesture.^[3] It became the third of the French properties on the island, together with his former tomb in Sane Valley and Longwood House.^[4]

Later, Balcombe was offered a post in Australia and established a new estate called "The Briars" in the Carwoola area of New South Wales. On this new estate, it is believed that he was responsible for introducing two plants to Australia, the Sweet Briar (Rosa rubiginosa) and the Weeping Willow (Salix babylonica). The willow grew nearby Napoleon's grave on St Helena and Balcombe is reported to have taken cuttings from these trees."

"BRIAR: a wild bush, especially a rose or blackberry bush with long stems and sharp thorns."

Refresher: "He who aspires to be a sage and to know the Great Enigma of Nature must be the heir and despoiler of the Sphinx: his the human head, in order to posses speech; his the eagles wings, in order to scale the heights {'cliff'?}; his the bulls flanks, in order to furrow the depths; his the lions talons, to make a way on the right and the left, before and behind."

Hobbits considered 'thirtythree' a coming-of-age year, so knowing that Frodo was 50 when he took the One Ring to Mordor meant that he was older than Jackson portrayed him in his films.''

Bilbo: "Alas, eleventy-one years is far too short a time to live among such excellent and admirable hobbits." [cheers abound.] "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.''

From a different perspective - but with something added {coincidence?}: ''Our hotel was a Spanish adobe {mud-brick} palace, hidden behind high walls in the center of town....I was with the Dogon researcher....We got a room, and the room number was twentythree. He got all excited....said it was a very auspicious number. From Africa, where the Dogons live, the star Sirius disappears below the horizon and is out of sight for a couple of months; then it appears again on the morning of July 23rd, when it rises just before the sun {heliacal rising}. It appears, bright ruby red, just above the horizon, almost exactly due east....So it is seen just for a moment then it is gone. This is the moment that Sirius, the Sun and the Earth are in a straight line across space. In Egypt, almost all temples were aligned with this line including the gaze of the Sphinx....It began their new year and the first day of their ancient Sothic calendar....'' [Page 14 'The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life' / D. Melchizedek].

A working example: ''The reader will remember that according to most authorities Iblis - who Rumi refers to as ''one eyed'' - was one of the jinn and not one of the angels, since he was made of fire, while they are made of light. However, his eons of piety had brought him into their proximity, so he mixed freely with them. However much the angels examined Adam, they did not come to know what sort of all-comprehensive reality he was. But Iblis the deceitful {'cunning'} was once walking around Adam. Gazing up at him with his one squint eye, he saw that Adams mouth was open. He said, 'Just wait. Now i have found a way to undo the knot of our problem. I will enter this hole {'void'?} and see what sort of place this is.'' When Iblis went in and traveled around Adams makeup {in 'profile'?}, he found it to be a small world. He found there a representation of everything that he found in the large world. He found the head like a heaven with seven strata etc...When Iblis had traveled the whole frame of Adam, he recognized the macrocosm in all the traces he saw. HOWEVER, when he reached the heart, he found it like a pavilion. In front of it, the breast was like a square erected before a royal palace. However much he tried to find a way into the pavilion so that he could go into the heart, he was not able to....With a hundred thousand thoughts, he turned back from the door of the heart in despair. He reports to the angels that nothing is to be feared from this hollow person who is like other animals, though there is one place that cannot be entered.'' [Pages 123-4 {Kindle} 'The Tao of Islam].

And/or: "I am standing beside the Teacher, and behind me a group is on a fairground carousal, which is going round and round and up and down. The a man comes and from a chest of drawers he takes out an orange robe, which is for me. I am a bit overawed by this robe, wondering whether it is really for me, but he gives it to me and tells me that i must finish off the hem."

"The image of the group on a carousal - symbolises the dynamic of being thrown between the opposites on a Road that is not linear {E-W?}, but a circular journey towards wholeness. However, the image of the orange robe and the symbolic meaning of the dreamer finishing the hem cannot be appreciated from a solely psychological context.

For the orange robe is associated with the sannyasin, one who has renounced the world, and thus finishing the hem of this robe suggests completion of a certain spiritual work......The spiritual call happens not through the will of the ego, but the prompting of the soul.....The orange robe tells her that it now time to 'turn away' from the world, towards Home."

''And can fate bring a man to the work?''...'No, it does not mean this at all,' G. answered him. 'Fate is better than accident only in the sense that it is possible to take it into account, it is possible to know it beforehand; it is possible to prepare for what is ahead. In regard to accident one can know nothing. But fate can also be unpleasant or difficult. In this event, however, there are means for isolating oneself from fate. The first step towards this is getting away from 'general laws' {'23/24'?}. Just as there is individual accident, so is there general or collective accident. And in the same way as there is individual fate, there is a general or collective fate. Collective accident and collective fate are governed by general laws. If a man wishes to create individuality of his own he must first free himself { ''137''?} from general laws. General laws are by no means all obligatory for man, he can free himself from many of them if he frees himself from 'buffers' and from imagination. All this is connected from liberation of the 'personality'. Personality feeds on imagination and falsehood [fantasy aspect?}." Same book.

Refresher: ''English mantle and mantel both derive from the Latin word for "cloak," mantellum, which was adopted into Old English in the form mentel. The word eventually evolved to mantle under the influence of Anglo-French mantel—a derivative of the Latin term that was borrowed into early Middle English. Initially, mantle referred to a loose, sleeveless cloak or a protective garment or blanket. It then specified the long cloaks worn by royalty, dignitaries, and ecclesiastics as symbols of authority or pre-eminence. By the 17th century, this sense of mantle gained figurative use in contexts describing a transfer of power, with allusion to the allegorical passing of Elijah's mantle to Elisha in the biblical Books of Kings.''

A working example: "There is a story about a group of mystics, a band of lovers of God, who were called the Kamal Posh. Kamal Posh means blanket wearers, for their only possession was a blanket which they wore as a covering during the day and used as a blanket at night. As the story goes they travelled throughout the ancient world from prophet to prophet but no one could satisfy them. Every prophet told them to do this or to do that, and this did not satisfy them.

Then one day, at the time of Muhammad, the Prophet was seated together with his companions when he said that in a certain number of days the men of the Kamal Posh would be coming. So it happened that in that number of days this group of Kamal Posh came to the prophet Muhammad. And when they were with him, he said nothing, but the Kamal Posh were completely satisfied.

'Silent Night'.

Why were they satisfied? Because he created love in their hearts, and when love is created, what dissatisfaction can there be? The Kamal Posh recognized that Muhammad knew the mysteries of the heart. They stayed with the Prophet and were assimilated into Islam. According to this story the Kamal Posh became the mystical element of Islam. And later these wayfarers became known as Sufis, perhaps in reference to the white woolen blanket, sûf, which they wore, or as an indication of their purity of heart, safâ, for they were also known as the pure of heart."

..."The 'Investigator' {i.e.,authors alter ego} remembers thinking during the six weeks between major experiments, that whatever he had tuned into was not ''Cosmic Consciousness''{12+5?} but a kind of planetary consciousness; {10+7?} - he wondered who coined the term, ''cosmic consciousness,'' and what it contained...This time i moved in space-time fan wise, unlike the backward-in-time movement of the drug trip. The 'Yogi' {same} became almost conscious of a kind of galactic star network, an intelligence that seemed not fully formed but evolving. Somehow this resonated in my mind with the Sufi teaching that Allah is constantly recreating himself every second. The trip was full of light and joy, the White Light of the Void jazz you've all heard; but dim, not fully achieved. The 'Researcher' {same} went off to sleep not quite satisfied. The next morning, July the twentythird, the 'Shaman' {same} awoke with an urgent message, from dreamland and scribbled quickly in his magical diary, ''Sirius is very important." There was more, almost at the tip of my tongue, but i couldn't remember it. During the day i looked through my occult books, seeking references to the Dog star, Sirius. Although skeptical about Astrology, i assumed that the dream message was some hint that the Sirius cycle should be part of my magical experiments in the future. Astrology seemed like nonsense to me, but i was willing to give it a try, in an open ended manner of Dr. Lilly's ''Beliefs unlimited'' exercise." [Extract from the book 'The Cosmic Trigger'. All emphasis - this readers with the exception of the word in bold print].

He goes on to find out - through practical research this time - information on same, i.e.,that it rises as a precursor to Orion - known as the Heliacal rising - from the twentythird July. Other connections include key words as the pheonix / new year/ Freemasonry / third eye / blazing star - to name a few. All enlarged within. It also explains - if only to this researcher - {i.e.,as a study exercise; not as an alter ego one} why the author feels it was more a 'planetary' experience than a 'cosmic' one, i.e.,''Dog'' in relation to lower; hence - ''not fully achieved''. That link to the word and description of ''void''. All in relation {or relative} to the self. Hence the link to the word in bold print. Those ''higher'' keys - once that 'gap' has been 'bridged' - would eventually be assessed either by research or in a dream state - regardless whether self induced or otherwise. Represented in the above example with information on Sirius - which as stated - the author has to evaluate for himself. Proving {if only for this reader} the viability of the subject material ONLY, regardless of how it is obtained or 'perceived'. Other keys enlarged elsewhere to add {or detract?} from ,i.e.,what is implied with a ''light'' 'behind' and/or in 'front' of. What does it represent? Why Sirius? What significance is the bow/arrow?

This reader, however would add - REGARDLESS OF WHOSE THEY ARE.

A {working} example {the very first one?}: "Homer uses Canis Major to reiterate his idea of the celestial sphere when in Book twentythree of the Iliad, Achilles tosses this way and that during a restless sleep...Homers description of Canis Major {'Great Dog'} reaches imaginative heights when he describes how the constellation was created to accommodate the return to the skies of the star Sirius, and how Hephaestus, the smith god, forges new armour for Achilles...The stars of Canis Major are used as the body of Achilles. His personal star Sirius, lies at the heart of the constellation, whether it is viewed as a Great Dog or a warrior...'' ['Homer's Secret Iliad'].

''Return'' in relation to 'incarnation/reincarnation. Representation of.

Question. 7th / 8th octave link? Hence...

"It is as the creator of the 'glittering new armour' and shield of Achilles that Hephaestus is perhaps best known, and his masterpiece represents the stars in an area of sky where a new constellation was created to accommodate the return to the heavens of the star Sirius after a long absence. In his role as the creator of astronomical concepts, Hephaestus is also credited with making the ancient staff that had been passed down to Agamemnon by his forbears - a symbolic pointer to the north celestial pole. To provide such astronomical functions, Hephaestus required his own home in the skies, and the details given in Book 18 when assessed in the same way as the information about other gods and warriors resulted in a vivid and unmistakable image of Perseus. How Hephaestus could represent Perseus if the constellation had already been allocated in one manifestation to Diomedes is not at present understood, but an answer may yet be found in pages of notes by Edna Leigh. In these notes she associates many other Greek gods with constellations, and we suspect these were her conclusions on yet another layer of ancient Greek astronomy..."

REFRESHER: "The potential literature for an intellectual study of this is vast. We hope we have provided a few simple pointers on the way. It is however, a 'centering' in, rather than a wandering in the labyrinthine fields of intellectual speculation, that is the direct way of truth. The 'rose' blooms at the center of the cross. And those who are prepared to contemplate the imagery and take it unto their inmost hearts are the more likely to be met by Beatrice from the triumphal car {'chariot'}, and 'led' to places where even the intellectual genius of a Virgil cannot go."

A working example: ''The name of the territory, first romanised as "He-Ong-Kong" in 1780,^[22] originally referred to a small inlet located between Aberdeen Island and the southern coast of Hong Kong Island. Aberdeen was an initial point of contact between British sailors and local fishermen.^[23] Although the source of the romanised name is unknown, it is generally believed to be an early phonetic rendering of the Cantonese (or Tanka Cantonese) phrase hēung góng. The name translates as "fragrant harbour" or "incense harbour".^[20][21][24]

"Fragrant" may refer to the sweet taste of the harbour's freshwater influx from the Pearl River or to the odour from incense factories lining the coast of northern Kowloon. The incense was stored near Aberdeen Harbour for export before Victoria Harbour was developed.^[24] Sir John Davis (the second colonial governor) offered an alternative origin; Davis said that the name derived from "Hoong-keang" ("red torrent"), reflecting the colour of soil over which a waterfall on the island flowed.^[25]

The simplified name Hong Kong was frequently used by 1810.^[26] The name was also commonly written as the single word Hongkong until 1926, when the government officially adopted the two-word name.''
