The cathedral was begun in 1160 and largely completed by 1260, though it was modified frequently in the following centuries. In the 1790s, Notre-Dame suffered desecration during the French Revolution when much of its religious imagery was damaged or destroyed. Soon after the publication of Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame in 1831, popular interest in the building revived. A major restoration project supervised by Eugène Viollet-le-Duc began in 1845 and continued for twenty-five years. Beginning in 1963, the facade of the Cathedral was cleaned of centuries of soot and grime, returning it to its original color. Another campaign of cleaning and restoration was carried out from 1991–2000.

[9]As the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Paris, Notre-Dame contains the cathedra of the Archbishop of Paris (Michel Aupetit). 12 million people visit Notre-Dame yearly, it thus being the most visited monument in Paris.

[10]On 15 April 2019, the Cathedral caught fire, causing significant damage, including the collapse of the main spire and the entire roof. [1]The extent of the damage was initially unknown as was the cause of the fire, though it was suggested that it was linked to ongoing renovation work.[11] [12]A spokesperson stated that the entire wooden frame would likely come down and that the vault of the edifice could be threatened as well.

[13]The #Great #Fire of 1879
http://www.archives.nd.edu/about/news/index.php/2014/1879-fire/

by Notre Dame Archives · April 23, 2014

Wednesday, April 23, 1879, started out as any other spring day at Notre Dame. Taking advantage of the warm day, the Minims were out on their play yard. Around 10:00am, they were the first to notice the smoke rising from the Main Building and sounded the alarm — “College on fire!” Notification was sent to South Bend and a fire engine was dispatched to Notre Dame, but it arrived too late to save five of the campus buildings that were quickly consumed. Despite several devastating fires in her past, Notre Dame was ill-prepared for such a large fire. Even though the Main Building was equipped with water tanks, they proved futile on this fateful day.

Stricken

4/17/06 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord God: This #world is stricken, a corrupt #tree which bears only bitter #fruit! You have done this, O peoples of the #earth! You have done this, O #men of #power and #wealth, all you #people of excess! YOU HAVE DONE THIS! For the sake of #greed, to fulfill your insatiable appetites and ever-increasing lusts, YOU HAVE DESTROYED THE #GARDEN!
Therefore #cut down the tree and #burn the #branches! #Break apart the #stump and pull up the #roots!... For thus declares The Lord: As you have sown, SO SHALL YOU REAP! And that which you have withheld from the #poor and the #needy shall be taken from you, and you shall suffer! Behold, even all you have wrought in the earth shall return atop your own# heads, for I shall #strike you down and #lay you waste! - Desolation upon #desolation, #calamity upon calamity, #plagues and #famine until you are utterly consumed!

_Behold, My people are afflicted,
And My #faithful ones are persecuted,
#Imprisoned and put to #death!
My little ones are brought to #harm,
And the #innocent are murdered in droves,
CAST OFF AS REFUSE!...

Therefore the #afflicted shall be
Given #wealth beyond imagining,
And the #meek shall #inherit the earth;
The little ones shall be taken,
And the innocent shall return #home...

And they shall be My #sons and #daughters,
Forever, #life without end._

Yet you, O most wicked #generation, shall be #cut off! I shall #cast you out, and you shall remain outside the #gates! For I do not know you! Says The Lord... There shall be wailing and gnashing of #teeth.

For thus says The Lord to the generation of His wrath: As a #lion #springs forth suddenly from its hiding place and lays hold of the #prey, so shall I break the #neck of this #generation and #drag it away, until every last #remnant of your wickedness is devoured! Behold, you shall be broken without #hand, and the wickedness which dwells in the midst of you shall be torn in pieces!... And who among the #nations shall #deliver you from the #mouth of The Lion?!
For I am risen up in My #anger, I am come forth in My fury! Therefore let every way #crack and every #foundation crumble; let the earth give way! Let the high places fall with a great #crash, and let every false image perish before the #great and #awesome #power of The Lord!
See, your #wealth has come to nothing, O peoples of the earth. For as it is written: Your wealth shall rot away, your #fine #clothes shall be #eaten by #moths, your #gold and #silver shall become worthless, and shall be for a #witness against you in the Day of #Wrath, and shall #eat your #flesh like #fire. Thus all the #treasure, which you have heaped up against the Day, shall #bury you.
Therefore #kneel, kneel before The Lord of Hosts,# humble yourselves before The #King! #Kiss The #Son! For in #YahuShua alone is your #salvation, in #Messiah alone is there #deliverance in the Day of Wrath, your only #escape. For He is The #Lamb; behold, He is also The Lion!... Yet you will forsake Him in the name of another.

Did you think, O most wicked generation, the #man of #perdition could #save you from the Day of Wrath?! Did you think you could #escape the Day of Judgment, which I pronounced from the beginning?! You are #deceived, even as he is deceived!

_For the reign of evil shall be abolished,
The wicked stricken and the evil of #heart blotted out,
Extinguished in the #lake of My burning #heart!...

For My heart is set ablaze in My anger,
And My #countenance #burns like a raging fire;
My sadness is #infinite, the #weight of
Unending #sorrow covers Me...

For as I #live, says The Lord,
I take no #pleasure in the #destruction
Of the #wicked, but call all in the earth
To #repent, to turn from their #evil ways...

And return to Me._

Desolations Are Determined

3/19/06 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord God of Israel: Woe to the #kingdoms of this #world! Woe to the false #religions of this world! The #atheist shall have it far better than you, when the #wrath of the great and dreadful God has come! Woe to the #king of the north! Woe to the #kings from the rising of the #sun! Woe to the king of #Persia and the #people of #violence! Woe to every #nation and people, who say, “Come, let us put an end to #Israel as a nation. Let us utterly #destroy them, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more!”... BEHOLD, I AM AGAINST YOU! Says The Lord God.

Thus says The Lord, to the king of the north: Come and mount up your #troops, and take #flight. Call upon your #agreement with those of the rising sun. Honor your #covenant with the people of #violence. #Cast your #devices and #launch all your #weapons of #war. Come against My #chosen people and the land #promised to their #forefathers, forever! COME! Says The Lord. Fulfill the #evil desires of your #wicked #hearts. For you shall #fall, and you shall not be found! Says The Lord of Hosts. You shall be a #valley of #dead and dry #bones, buried in the #land you came to #destroy, for it shall #consume you! - #Food for the #birds, dwelling place of the #worm.
Therefore come, I say! Come, and leave your spoil and your rotting #flesh! For you shall surely stumble, you shall fall, and you shall not be found! And by your falling shall the name of The Lord be #glorified in every land, even unto the ends of the earth! For this is but an #awakening, and many shall behold it, the #mighty and #awesome #power of The Lord!
Behold, the #earth shall be #shaken, the #clouds shall burst! I shall command #pestilences to come upon you; they shall cleave to you and #drink your #blood, and you shall be driven #mad. For you shall #stumble, you shall #fall, and you shall not be #found! (Save a sixth part whose #hearts I know; they shall return home and be spared.) For in your eagerness to spoil shall you become the #spoil, and sustain My people seven #days.
Swiftly shall I destroy this great #multitude who come out to #fight against Me, who seek to destroy My people, Israel! For they shall be driven to the #ground by #fire, by #hail, and by #thick #darkness! FOR #STRONG IS THE LORD WHO DEFENDS ISRAEL!

_Behold, My #countenance has changed!
My #face is set hard against you, O #enemies of Israel!
My #arm is outstretched and ready for #battle!...

Thus that which is #written shall be fulfilled,
And that which is determined shall be done,
And you shall be left utterly desolate!...

Then all shall know, I AM THE LORD!_

Yet #understand this, O #house of Israel: I do not do this for your sake, but for My #holy name’s sake. For My name is profaned among the nations. And you, O Israel, have not obeyed My #Word, neither have you walked in The Way I have shown you. For you yet reject The One who I had sent to you, The Holy One who was #glorified upon the #tree. Thus His #blood remains upon you. For you are the #children of your #fathers, the #descendants of those who killed The #Author of #Life!

_Thus I have spoken it,
And it shall surely come to #pass...

Says The Lord of Power and Glory._

The Watchman

3/19/06 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For Timothy, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: Abominations swell in the #holy lands; great wickedness fills the entire #earth! Sins of every kind are committed without ceasing, and #perversion is celebrated openly in the streets. #Vines of wickedness #grow unimpeded, spreading forth iniquity, growing and spreading and putting down #roots. Behold, they #climb the #walls and enter in through the cracks, as they seek #new ways to #invade every stronghold and #break down every #barrier.

Therefore hear the Word of My mouth, Timothy, and give heed, for the #time has come: I have ordained you a prophet to the #nations, and you shall be for Me a #mouthpiece and a #witness, a #watchman #crying out in the midst of this desolate #land, saying, “Prepare the way of The Lord! Set all these crooked #paths straight!”

Behold, as an adamant #stone
I have set you against them,
A #rock of offense which can not be broken,
A stone of stumbling which can not be moved...

Therefore, My #son, take what I have given you
And convict this #generation of its #evil ways;
#Reprove, #rebuke, and #exhort...

For I shall kindle a #fire within you,
And into your #ears I shall speak,
And through you I shall make My #plans known...

For I am The Lord, and I do not #change.

For there are many who #claim to know Me, yet do not really know Me. There are many who are #wise in their own #eyes, yet of My ways they have no #knowledge. Yes, there are many who will come out and #fight against you, doing so in the name by which I am called among them. They shall #slander you, and #spit upon you, and seek to do you #harm. Indeed, they shall #persecute you in #word and by #deed, saying, “Look at this #man! He is #unlearned, and yet he speaks to us with #authority. Shall he #teach us?! How dare he #correct us! For we know The Lord and His #will and have served Him our whole lives. Is this not one of the prophets, the kind of which The Lord spoke about, who would come speaking and doing #miracles, that he might #fool even the #elect?”
Yet do not #listen to them, Timothy. Do not be turned aside, nor go after them; do not be moved. Give heed to none of their #arrogant and dark #speeches, #listen to not one word that proceeds from their #mouths. Be not turned to the right #hand, nor to the left, but go #straight forward, proclaiming My Word by all manner of speaking and #devices. For those who glorify Me in The Messiah’s name, and obey My #Commandments, are #true; they are by no means #false. For My #spirit dwells within them, and I Myself have sent them. I AM THE LORD.

The Mountains Shall Crumble and Fall Upon the Desolate

2/17/06 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

I am The God of #Jacob, The God of #Isaac, The God of #Abraham; I am The I AM. I am God alone; there is no other.

Therefore hear the Word of The Lord and give heed, for thus says The Lord to this most wicked generation, to the last of these kingdoms of men: You are maimed! You have altogether become as one whose #ears have been cut off! For you will in no wise hear Me, nor are you able! This #world has seduced you, and eagerly do you embrace the #seduction! Thus your #portion shall be #sorrow, and your lot the #grave! For the #wicked shall lie down in death, and the #evil of #heart shall be struck down - Broken off! Blotted out!

Behold, even you, O churches of men, have been seduced! For you do not cease from committing #fornication with the #harlot! Indeed you have embraced many #lovers, lying down in #beds of false #doctrine, covering yourselves with the filth of the #pagan and the #heathen, committing many acts of #adultery by your traditions, as you continue to indulge in those things which I hate!
YOU HAVE CAUSED MY #PEOPLE TO SIN! YOU HAVE ALTOGETHER TURNED THEM ASIDE FROM THE #TRUTH! For you have preached to them another #messiah, a false christ, passed down to you by your #forefathers, an #idol arrayed in #purple and #scarlet, which even now you #mold to your own likeness, according to your own perverse desires and arrogant assumptions! - #Blind #guides! Foolish #children!
YOU ALL #SLEEP! Yea, you fold your hands to rest, that you may remain at ease in your slumber! Awake! Free yourselves from the deluge of lies, from this great #flood of sin! AWAKE! And go and #wash yourselves in the #pool of #Siloam, yea, immerse yourselves in The #Healing Pool of God, which was sent. #Beloved, #wash yourselves, make yourselves #clean, and come out from among them! Be separate from all these #commandments of men, from all these false doctrines and filthy #traditions, and I will receive you!
Yet you refuse Me, nor will you come out. For you want no part with Me as I truly am. Thus you remain under #judgment, and the #shadow of #death covers you. Behold, My own people #sin against Me, for they are not My people. For they do always #testify falsely, as they continue to #pervert My name in all the #earth. Therefore every #lampstand shall be removed from its place, all #light gathered and taken; #darkness, thick #clouds and darkness, cover the #face of the earth.

Beloved children, you have rejected Life! You have turned your #backs on #Forgiveness! WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?! My #heart #bleeds with #sorrow, as I look upon the #works of your #hands! #Anguish grabs hold of Me, as I #search your hearts and #minds! Deep #mourning fills Me, as I stretch out My #hand to bring #destruction upon you!... #Great and #bitter #sorrows, unending #grief, My children have departed from Me.

Thus says The Holy One of Israel, to this lost and dying generation; thus says He who died and is alive forevermore: I am The Only #Way by which you shall #enter, having ripped the #curtain in two; I am The Open Door by which all My beloved shall #pass through. Yet you refuse to come to Me, nor will you accept Me as I truly am. How then shall you enter? How then shall you pass through?
Behold, I had sent to you My #apostles, that you might learn of My ways. I had sent to you My #prophets, that you might hear the Word of My mouth and receive of My #correction. Indeed throughout your #generations, I sent to you many #servants, as #lambs amongst #wolves, yet you #persecuted and #slandered them all. And still I send more, behold, even a multitude as The #Father wills, yet as in all times past you will #stone them in word and by deed.
Therefore, woe! Woe to the #arrogant #scoffer and the high-minded #hypocrite! Woe to all who take the name of The Lord in #vain! All your works shall come to an abrupt end, and that which you spew at My #chosen shall return atop your own #head! For My prophets are sent and prepare My way before Me, sounding the #alarm, trumpeting My strong #rebuke.
Behold, they shall #call all people to repent and #warn every #nation; yes, they shall give a #shout and #blow the #Trumpet. And whether you will #hear or whether you will forbear, they shall surely #sing. For it has been appointed to My #witnesses to sing a new #song, of which only they know and shall be revealed. And behold, they shall sing with a loud #voice in #concert, to every #tribe, #tongue, people and nation. And whether the multitudes will hear or forbear, My servants shall surely sing. For the song must be sung and is sung already.

Therefore thus says The Lord God, The Only #Holy Father, #Creator of Heaven and Earth: Call upon the name of The Messiah, and listen to those I send. For the #time of judgment is at hand, the Day of The Lord #draws near.
Peoples of the earth, do you not feel My #quaking #footsteps? Do you not feel the earth #tremble? Behold, the #mountains shall #crumble and fall upon the desolate, every #high place shall be broken down. Therefore as it is written: Kiss The #Son, lest He be #angry and you perish in the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. For most assuredly, I say to you, the #fire is already kindled, and on a day you did not look for and at an #hour you did not expect, the #cup of My #fury shall be #poured out; behold, it shall be imparted in full!

_Therefore, #blessed are those who call upon the name
Of The Messiah, in sincerity and in truth,
For the #Spirit of God dwells within them...

Blessed are those who seek #refuge in Him,
For they shall find it...

Blessed are all those who #love and
#Obey The Son, for they shall be #delivered...

Says The Lord.

The Last Trump

2/10/06 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

I AM COME! [1]Says The Lord. Therefore arise and give answer, O peoples of the #earth! Who is the #face and #image of The #Invisible God?! Who?! It is He I have sent, The One who is and was and is to come! Behold, He shall wait no longer, for the #Day of The Lord is at #hand and the #time #appointed #draws near! For The Son of Man shall #enter in and #gather them together, He shall surely #pass through and prepare the #harvest - HE SHALL REAP!

**Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, for thus says The Lord: **My #spirit is poured out. My #watchmen are #called, My #prophets sent; they prepare My #way before Me. And if you are willing to receive it, they are #John and #Elijah, My #witnesses, even 144,000; and behold, they shall surely #baptize with My #Word and #fire. Who else shall I send?! Who will go for Me?! Who will #noise in the four #corners and #shout from the rooftops?

_WATCHMEN, stand up and blow the #Trumpet!
For the #Great and #Terrible Day of The Lord draws near...

PEOPLES OF THE EARTH, #repent and be spared!
For The #Thief is about to #enter the #house and take His spoil;
Behold, He has entered the #hearts of the penitent already,
And has but to call out, and they shall be snatched away...

CHURCHES OF MEN, let My people go!
For The #Master is coming quickly, and He shall surely
Purge every #temple and #tear down every house,
Which pollutes My name and desecrates
The #glory of My #majesty...

Therefore do not wait, #beloved ones,
COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM!
For the Day of #Judgment is at hand._

Behold, judgment shall #rain down from #Heaven upon every #tribe, #tongue and people - RECOMPENSE FOR ALL NATIONS! Calamity upon calamity shall overtake the #land, #disaster shall reach into every corner, even to the ends of the earth! For who can hide from the #face of God revealed in His #hot displeasure, #burning in the fierceness of His #wrath?! Who is able to #drink from the #cup of My indignation, and live?! For it is written: Unless those days were shortened no #flesh would be #saved. For the #heavens shall be set on #fire above, and the earth shall become a desolation beneath. Yet whoever calls upon the name of The Lord, in sincerity and in truth, shall be delivered, says The Lord.

For thus says The Lord, to the #generation of His wrath: I have trumpeted to you, yet you #cover your #ears. I shall #show great #signs and wonders, the likes of which have never been seen (indeed many signs are made plain already), yet you shall cover your eyes. Indeed you refuse to repent, neither will you #humble yourselves and consider. For your #hearts are #hard, your countenances unyielding, a vile people who despise The Truth!
Therefore judgment is coming quickly, and shall fall hard upon the desolate, the high-minded and the hypocrite - ALL shall be broken; some broken and uplifted, and many broken and condemned. Behold, before the sixth #seal is broken, I shall deal to the hard-hearted a glancing blow: One shall be taken, and the other left. For the #innocent shall be taken, and the upright in heart shall be hidden, as many as receive My words and also do them. Behold, even those asleep in #Messiah shall come forth, and they too shall be gone from this place, for I know My own... The earth shall #starve, all #light gathered and taken, darkness, thick #clouds and darkness, the Great and Terrible Day of The Lord.

Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, for thus declares The Lord: Travesty, great travesty is coming and is already here; even the abomination which causes desolation shall be revealed. Atrocities and #war shall increase, perversions of every kind shall reach unto new heights in wickedness, as injustice upon #injustice is perpetrated in every #land, to the rending of the hearts of all people.
Thus I have declared the Day and set the #hour: JUDGMENT for all who fight against Me! RECOMPENSE for all who harm My little ones or persecute My #messengers! REFINEMENT for those who refuse to embrace Me as I truly am!... Yet glory for those who glory in Him who gave His #life as a ransom, deliverance for those who #obey The Son, #sanctuary for the #innocent.

_Therefore love The Lord your God
With your whole heart, and find sanctuary
In The One through whom you were made...

#Kiss The Son!...

For He alone is The Loving #Mercy of God,
Your only #Salvation...

The #Way, The #Truth, The #Life.

Another small offering, this one about fire. More at my blog post https://storystag.wordpress.com/2019/02/22/summoning-story/

Pyro

From when they could first talk, trade thoughts and ideas beyond mere survival, they worshipped me. I warmed them, and slowly I warmed to them. Eventually, I let them use me, feed me, carry me as a beacon in the night. Many, many generations later, they called this ‘the taming of fire’. The arrogance.

They progressed, and they built shelter. And they took me with them, into their huts, for light, for warmth, for cooking. Some still adored me, telling amusing stories of how I was found or stolen. Some just enjoyed me. There were always a few who were irreverent, careless, or just plain lazy, and at times I was impatient, and I let them burn. Sometimes a whole house, perhaps even a village. It kept them on their toes.

Then they grew. Grew in numbers and in needs, in their buildings and their contraptions. They wanted more of me. They build furnaces and kilns to make tools and weapons. I crackled with joy and gave them all they asked for.

When they first learned to burn fossils and use their power, I roared with appreciation. Soon, though, I saw it: the more they had, the more they wanted; the more they got, the less they appreciated. Oh, many still knew I blessed them. But mostly, they saw me now as a tool. They took to putting me in closed spaces, they calculated how much work they could extract. I was a beast of burden to them now, running their carriages, powering their homes.

I grew weary of their disrespect. My anger burned slow, and the forest blazes grew and the earth parched. Then, finally, I understood. They hadn’t just turned away from me, they had turned their backs on all: no more did they worship the water, the sun or the wind; they did not thank the earth for its bounty; they hardly thanked each other.

My rage grew quickly, although it was slow in their minds, many years, a lifetime or two, so slow that they didn’t even notice at first. As the flames burned hotter, longer, farther, they could no longer ignore me, try as they might. Still, many were seduced, blinded by their trinkets. By the time they realised I would be the death of them, it was too late.

Fire purifies and cleanses. It purges and destroys the old, opening space for the new. I will melt down their cities and poison their air. Perhaps I will let some find refuge, to emerge into soot and ash and build anew. I will teach them again, let the survivors worship me and tell new stories. Fire Gods are not to be dismissed.

Heed the Call

12/15/05 From YahuShua HaMashiach, Our Lord and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: The #time approaches quickly, and is already here, when My #servant shall #speak as never before. And those who have #ears to #hear will #listen and come out. Yet those who hate the #sound of this #Trumpet will turn and }fight against Me. For #Timothy shall wield My words like a #sword, and many shall be #pierced and #struck through - some to #hope and #salvation, and many more to #refinement and #tears; and still others to #condemnation, all those who refuse to #repent, those who hold #fast in their #rebellion to the end. For My words are #fire, singeing the #forehead of the #arrogant, setting the #countenance of the prideful ablaze, twin #daggers piercing the #heart of every hearer.

Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, and heed the call...

For it is a #call to repentance, a #shout
And a #witness, a #proclamation of #Truth...

A trumpet of #alarm and #war, a #declaration
Of #judgment, a #strong #rebuke...

Judgment, Transgression, and The Word

12/1/05 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: I am The Lord your God, He who stretched out the #heavens and laid the #foundations of the #earth, The #Maker of all #things. Yes I AM HE, The #Creator of #Heaven and Earth, The #One alone who sits on #high, #molding and #shaping that which I have created by Him who is forever seated at My right #hand. The #Father and The #Son are One.

Behold, even to #man did I grant this #power, the power to #create or to #destroy. Yet within man dwells a corrupted #spirit. And so he goes out and comes in, corrupting his way before him, leaving #mourning in his #wake; creating that which brings harm to himself, destroying that which was to sustain him, even to the murdering of the #innocent; desecrating that which is #pure, polluting the things of God, as he turns his #back on his Creator.
Thus I must #judge the peoples of the earth; behold, I shall surely testify against them and utter My strong rebuke. For as it is written, so shall it be: I shall come, and I shall not keep #silent! A #fire shall devour before Me, and a great #storm shall #rage all around Me! I shall call to the heavens above and to the earth beneath, and judge all people! Indeed, all shall give an #account on that #day, even of every idle word.
Yet let My #faithful ones, all who have made a #covenant with Me by #sacrifice, be gathered to Me, and let them be judged according to the New Covenant; let The #Holy Sacrifice stand in their #place and #speak on their behalf. For only the rejection of The Holy Covenant leads to #judgment and #death; or the acceptance thereof, from judgment into #life. For I am a #just God and a Savior; My #mercy endures #forever, My judgment is #righteous, and My #justice lasts throughout the #generations. Behold, Heaven is My #throne, and the earth My #footstool, says The Lord.
For I had sent to you My Son, in whom the fullness of God dwells, God in the #flesh, Immanu El; a man without sin, blameless, who willingly gave up His life for all who have fallen under judgment, that those who are willing might pass from death to life, from darkness into The Light of Life. For He carried the #weight of the world’s #sin to the #cross, and #crucified sin through His #suffering; the penalty of sin abolished as He fell asleep, the #Victory established for all #time upon His #rising. Thus He will be your judge at the Last Day, O peoples of the earth, because He is both God and man. Therefore, blessed are all those in whom He sees of Himself. For these have already passed from judgment into life, seated forever at His right hand.

Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, for thus says The Lord: Do not be deceived; let #satan #gain no foothold. For there is but One God and One Savior, One #Deliverer in the Day of #Wrath. Again, I say to you, do not be deceived. Satan can not change his visage and become man. He is what he is, and remains who he became to this day. He is heylel, son of the #morning, with a #heart like the #abyss. And those fallen are like him, corrupted by those same things which consume him.
Yet satan has indeed appeared to #men, sending them #strong delusions, preying upon that which already dwells within them; even imitating #Mary, the #mother of The #Messiah, deceiving those who remain #ignorant of the Truth, leading a multitude away into false #worship and #idolatry. So then satan only imitates the #truth, for there is no truth in him. When he tells a #lie, he is only doing what comes #natural to him, because he is a liar and the father of all lies. Thus he does indeed wear many #disguises, and delights in leading My people astray. For by #clever words and #dark #speeches he bears false #witness, leading multitudes away into faiths which are dead - FALSE RELIGIONS! DETESTABLE PRACTICES! ABOMINATIONS!
#YahuShua #HaMashiach is The #Gift, He is The Only #Way; there is #salvation in no other, nor any other #name under Heaven by which you must be #saved. Thus ALL #religions of this #world are an #abomination in the #eyes of The Most High God! Every one of them #pollutes the #land and spreads forth like a #plague! Behold, even those who #bear My name have become like them! Not one worships Me in #spirit or in truth, all have gone astray! Corrupt #workers, arrogant assemblies, you #worship yourselves!
Yes even you, O churches of men, have corrupted the Word of Truth, and do not cease from #polluting My name! You misuse My name and abuse My Word, subverting the people through false #doctrine and filthy tradition! You encourage them to forsake My #Commandments and ignore My every #decree! In the name of The Holy One, you cause My people to sin! By permission, UNDER #GRACE, you encourage them to transgress The Commandments of God, #teaching and #preaching to them another messiah, adding to and taking away from My Word to uphold your own way, and all for the sake of unjust gain! Shall I not #discipline you for these things?! Shall I not bring down My #hand hard upon you?! Shall I not come forth swiftly and wipe ALL religions from the #face of the earth?!
Yet true #faith has a name, and true #religion yields #fruit of the same: A #Bride who obeys the voice of her #Husband and walks in His ways, a people #worthy to be #called by His name. Yet the #light has departed from the churches of men, The Word of Truth is hidden from their #eyes. All is #corrupt and dying, #darkness fills the earth.

And so The Word was sent, and came into
The world to seek and to #save the #lost...

And behold, He is coming again, to #deliver His own,
All those who #believe and #live by The Word;
And to destroy those who #fight against The Word,
For they too are #bound by The Word...

For The Word stands forever...

Immovable and everlasting, unchangeable,
Having complete #authority over all things,
The #light and the #dark, the #righteous and the #wicked...

Indeed, the whole #universe is set within
The confines of His #will, giving heed to Him
Who created it, forever and ever...

Amen.

lncreasing the Creative Potency Using a Suitable Partner

Second,

the explanation on how to increase the active aspect of the phases by relying
on a suitable partner as a special condition has two parts:

(1) learning through establishing one's ability to work with one's energy, and
(2) learning according to the path of passion itself.

Here the path of passion itself will be learned.

First, one must meet with a suitable partner who has the esoteric empowerment,
and imagines themselves as a deity,
so that at the time of intercourse when passionate attachment and the concepts associated with it arise,
this is experienced as the creative energy of pristine awareness.

If one does not know this, it is just attachment.

Transforming this into pristine awareness means that by working with passionate attachment itself,
passionate attachment is purified.

When one first thinks of uniting with the partner, the bodily fluids that arise are
the movement of the motile energy of the #water phase.

#Water itself is the female polarity of buddhahood known as #Mamaki. Next, one should find the energetic point of arousal of the partner and awaken it.
Sometimes one can massage one's partner with honey and beer.

When one moves the sex organs, there is enjoyment and warmth.

This heat is the #fire phase, which is the female polarity of buddhahood, #Pandaravasini. Her pristine awareness is that of supreme enjoyment.

The hardening of the sex organs produces pleasure;
this hardness is the #earth phase, which is the female pole of buddhahood, #Buddhalocana.

The movements and positions of the body also produce pleasure; this movement is the #wind phase and the female aspect of buddhahood, #Samayatara.

When one moves and this pleasure arises, one should visualize
as above at the nexuses of the five energetic configurations (5 chakras),
arousing pleasure and proceeding as before.

By doing this, the active energy of the crown flows down, generating the pristine awareness of enjoyment at the #throat;
the pristine awareness of supreme enjoyment at the #heart;
the pristine awareness beyond enjoyment at the #navel;
and the pristine awareness that in its very arising is primordially #pure,
at the #sex organs.

The active energies move within the energetic pathways,

>mutually assisting one another, thus giving rise to innumerable enjoyments.

When one's creative potency extends down to the navel with the
accompanying pleasure, it is necessary to return it upward.

One can say "HlK" three times,
imagine it going back up,
roll the eyes upward,
apply the hold of pulling up from below
and pressing down from above, touch the tongue to the palate,
contract the toes,
press the thumb with the ring finger,
press the two middle fingers together firmly,
and direct one's awareness to the crown of the head.

In this way it is impossible not to retain one's creative potency ( #sperm, #life-force)

Then one can generate pleasure again,
and if one cannot retain it in this way
one can press the point four finger-widths from the base of the sex organ with one's right ring-finger.
Thus there will be no outflow even though the creative potency is completely in the sex organs.

One returns the active aspect of the energy thus retained upward and scatters it through the eyes.

Some claim that the energy is returned upward through the contributory condition
of an object of concentration, such as the pupils.

This is not so.

The unique controlling point is the utilization of the active aspect of energy and mind together;
doing this, one stores the active energy within.

At the time of retaining the active energy, relax the mind in a state beyond concepts.
In this way, holding and scattering can happen at the same time.
This is very profound. (See introduction, p. 7.)

SECRET TEACHINGS OF PADMASAMBHAVA (page15, 16, 17)
By Padmasambhava

PART ONE

The Translations

### The meaning of The Fivefold Essential Instruction

The Fivefold Essential Instruction shows how the five #elemental phases of #earth, #wind, #fire, #water, and #space operate at deeper and deeper levels of #reality.

At the outer level, which is the first of the five levels of understanding,
the natural environment that we experience consists of five phases of earth, water, fire, wind, and space.

These emanate from the primordial ground of being as a "spontaneous glimmering in five hues,"
but are collectively experienced as five physical phases through a process of concretization.

"Concretization" refers to the process of moving from a spiritual to a physical reality.

The inner level shows how living beings of the six realms of samsara originate from the "active aspect" of the phases.

Their mutual functioning produces life-sustaining processes such as the change of seasons and the growth of plants.

On the hidden level, the functioning of the five phases is used to explain the ordinary experience of living beings in samsara, including their growth and aging.

The more hidden level takes us into the tantric understanding of the body and how to put this understanding into practice.

Each phase has two aspects.

One is our ordinary experience of the body and its interactions with mind and behavior.

Another is a spontaneous presence, like a radiant hue, that transcends the dichotomy between material and spiritual.

This presence, and its subtle gradations, is referred to with terms such as the" creative potency," "pristine awareness," and "active energy" of the phases.

The more hidden level discusses how this creative potency can be accessed to both maintain vitality and experience enlightenment
through the body.

There are two ways to do this:

.one, by increasing the creative potency naturally;
.and two, by increasing the creative potency using a suitable partner.

The first is done by oneself.

The phases and their creative potency cycle through the chakras in the course of a lunar month, and visualizing these energy centers at the appropriate times can increase their power.

While the moon is waxing, these subtle energies rise from the chakra at the sex organs to the crown chakra;

with the waning moon, they expand downward again.

For example, at the navel chakra one visualizes
(by the fourth day of the month) dakas and Dakinis of the Lotus family radiating the light-energy of the five phases through all energetic pathways of the body:

In this way the functioning of the phases is harmonized,
health is maintained, and the various aspects of pure awareness are
experienced.

The tantric ritual calendar of new moon, full moon, dakini practices,
and so on, is based on this subtle movement.

The second method, utilizing a sexual partner, increases the
efficacy of these visualizations.

While some techniques associated with tantric sexual practice are discussed, so is the importance of going beyond technique,
as we mentioned above.

Here Padmasambhava also injects a rare personal statement, indicating that there is room for further investigation in the experiential realm
of tantric practice:

"If there are some errors in the wording here,
intelligent people ought to investigate them.

By this instructionmay the path of passion be learned and the active energy of one'sphases increased and protected."

The fifth level and final section of our text

is a kind of addendum,
for it shows how to heal various kinds of illnesses caused by the imbalance of the phases,

and their interactions with thought and behavior.

This was especially important practical advice for someone on retreat for an extended period of time in a remote location.

The colophon states: "I, Padma of Urgyen, have composed this in the cave on top of Rust Mountain. Without spread ing it everywhere,
I make it an experience for myself."

The Judgment of God Is True and Without Question, Yet the Error of the People Is Great

9/3/05 From The #Lord, Our #God and #Savior
The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

These questions were asked of The Lord: Lord, is #capital #punishment OK? Are those who are #cremated lost?

Thus says The Lord: The #penalty of #sin is #death. Thus all who have sinned shall surely die, all shall lie down in death. Yet there is a #people who shall not #sleep, nor shall they lie down in death; a people who shall be #awake at My coming, a people who have received of the #divine #gift, a people who know Me and in whom I am known, for I see of Myself within them. They shall be lifted up, not preceding those who have fallen asleep in #Messiah. This is the first #harvest and #resurrection. For there is but One #Way, One #Truth, and One #Life; from the beginning, there is but One.

Yet there is one who is cast down, who goes about to and fro in all the #earth, perpetuating lies and spreading forth abomination, leading many away from the Truth. From the very beginning, #satan was a deceiver and a murderer; he has never been on the side of truth. From the beginning, he has sought to ensnare My people and destroy My #nation. For the #heart of #man is easily swayed, on #account of his #flesh he becomes entangled. Thus his #idolatries are many, and his #adulteries have no end.
Behold, #hand in hand they #march toward their #destruction, embracing #lies and rejecting Truth, as they #parade their #transgressions openly in the #streets. For the #wisdom of the #wise has perished, and the #knowledge of the #prudent has turned to #dust. For the people are void, they all have itching #ears. As #cattle to the #slaughter, or as a #bird hastens to the #snare, they give heed to those of clever words, failing to perceive it will #cost them their #life. Therefore the #mouth of #Sheol is open, the #pit is dug deep, and the #generation of My #wrath shall surely be cast into it! Indeed, they shall all #walk through the #valley, until death comes to claim them and the #grave hides them away, says The Lord.

Therefore hear the Word of My mouth and #humble yourselves, O sons and daughters of men, that you may see with new #eyes and restored #vision: If you #kill for the sake of #justice, though you yourselves remain unjust, have you not transgressed twice in your #spirit? Yea three times, you have sinned against The Lord your God. For man knows not the justice of God, nor can he comprehend the #judgment of The Most High. YOU SLOTHFUL AND MOST WICKED GENERATION, YOU ARE ALL MURDERERS! Even to #murder the murderer is murder! You do always transgress! You know nothing of the #power of God, nor of My #mercy revealed in The #Messiah, whom you call #Christ, nor are you able to search the #hearts of #men!
O foolish and deceived #generation, if a man has committed murder and you put him to death, you have placed yourselves in the #seat of judgment, making yourselves equal with God! Thus “BLASPHEMY” shall be written upon your #heads, and “MURDERER” your new #name! Yes punish the man who has committed murder, yet kill him not, lest he turn to Me in sincere #repentance, in The Messiah’s name, and be #forgiven. Shall you then #slaughter the #sons of God, piercing the hearts of those made new?!
O peoples of the earth, how long shall you tread the wide #path?! How long shall you walk in the way of #Cain and run greedily in the error of #Balaam, holding fast in your rebellion as #Korah?! For your sins are many; behold, they are increased beyond #measure!

Shall sin #judge sin, and institute
The punishment before the #time?!...

Is not My judgment, that of #capital punishment,
For all who have sinned, and #annihilation
For all who refuse to repent?!...

Yet I sent My Only Begotten #Son
To suffer your sentences for you;
Therefore, you do greatly err...

Peoples of the earth, where are your hearts?!
Err on the side of #hope and #salvation
In Messiah, where one can not err!

Therefore concerning those who kill the #body, yet can not harm the #soul, I say this: He who murders his #brother has committed great #evil. Even he who has conceived of murder in his heart is guilty. And those who carry out capital punishment are of the same. For they have put themselves in the judgment #seat; behold, they have placed themselves upon My #throne! Yet you know not what #tomorrow will bring, nor can you look upon the heart of man; even all his thoughts are hidden from you. Thus only I shall make an end of evil. Only I shall destroy the wicked of heart and cast the sons of satan into #eternal darkness, into the void of lifeless nothingness. For only The One who grants #life can take it away. I AM THE LORD! Or have you forgotten whom you shall #fear, The One alone who can destroy both body and soul?

Behold, the sins of this #generation reach unto #heaven, a murderous and most wicked people, a great multitude who stand in #agreement, a whole generation seeking the #penalty of death as they shake their #fists at #Heaven! Yes, by your own admission you are guilty! Behold, according to your own #laws, YOU should be put to death, YOU are the ones who should be sitting in the #chair! HYPOCRITES! You have destroyed yourselves!
FOOLISH GENERATION, YOUR LIFE IS NOT YOUR OWN! Apart from Me, there is no wisdom! Apart from The #Holy One, there is no life! Apart from The #Vine, there are no #branches! Behold, the #leaves wither and the #fruit has been cast down, for the people have no favor with God. Thus every dry #branch must be broken off and cast into the #fire, all corrupt fruit must be left and tread down. For the #temple of God has lost its form; its comeliness has departed, every #chamber is empty. For the heart of man is void, his countenance unyielding. Thus the #pride of man has become a chasm, both deep and wide, says The Lord.

Therefore, thus says The Lord your Redeemer, The Holy One of #Israel: Tear down the temple of God, and I shall raise it up again! For all who have died but #sleep, yet I shall raise them up again. And of those who are Mine, I shall not lose one, for I am The Lord and I shall raise them up again. Even those #cremated and those long since turned to #dust shall rise. For from the dust you came forth, by My knowledge were you made, and by My #breath you became living #souls. Can not God raise up #children to #Abraham, from the very #stones, if He so chooses? This I have already told you. Why then, O peoples of the earth, do you #rant and #rave and #wail like the #heathen, as one with no hope? Where is your #trust? Indeed, you have forgotten your God, and are greatly deceived; you do not know Me, nor will you believe. For if you knew Me, then you would know The #Father also, and understand that all #things are possible with God.
Therefore, let those who ask in #faith receive, and let those who #believe have understanding. For the fear of The Lord is indeed the beginning of wisdom. For I have already told you, that neither man nor #angel can truly kill another, nor is satan able to raise the dead. Only The One who formed it can raise it up again, and only by the hand of Him who #created it shall it be utterly destroyed. Thus if one refuses to be restored in the #image of God, which I am, he shall surely perish. He shall be blotted out, his life forfeit. Indeed, it shall be as though he had never been.

Therefore #repent, and receive of Me as I am,
And not as you would have Me be,
That you may be truly #born again...

For I am the perfect reflection of The Father,
The image of The #Invisible God...

I died, behold, I am #risen,
And by My life are you #saved...

That you might become the perfect #reflection of Me,
The One alone in whom is everlasting life...

Says The Lord.

The True Baptism

7/10/05 From The #Lord, Our #God and #Savior
The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: Be wary of all these #men in #authority who dwell in the #churches of men, be wary and vigilant. For they hold tightly to singleness of #doctrine, teaching always that which is built upon the corrupt #knowledge and #understanding of men, men who refuse to let go of that which was passed down to them by their forefathers, by which they also remain #blind. Therefore do not #judge according to #human standards, [1]nor by that which is put forth by men as doctrine, for they are greatly misled. Rather #study to show yourself #approved unto God, a workman that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of #Truth. [2]For #discernment with #fear is #righteousness.
Beloved ones, embrace the #wisdom and #knowledge of God, break free from all these corrupt doctrines and filthy #traditions held in such high regard. For I ask you, if you dispense the #food of God to the #hungry, while using your own #salt to salt that which has salt in itself, will not the food you offer lose its #flavor and become bitter in the mouths of those who came looking to be fed?
I tell you the #truth, many will there be in My Kingdom who received no #baptism by water. Rather they had been fully immersed in The Word of God, enveloped in The Son’s sacrifice and #love, #baptized in the Spirit of Truth. For most assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward. Therefore, do not cast stumbling #blocks before the #feet of those who love Me. Be one in #Messiah, according to that which dwells inwardly in the #heart. For true #fellowship comes not by #words spoken amongst a #group of #united #people, nor by immersion in #water. Rather it starts with the heart, and is found in the stillness of My #spirit, where My #peace mends the broken and My gentle caress gladdens the heart. For all those found at the feet of The Lord are covered with #grace, and those who abide in My love are indeed of one accord.
Beloved, where in The #Commandments have I written all must be baptized by men to be #saved? Baptism is indeed #good, if it is a #confession poured out from one’s heart in #pure #belief, an outward act of faith revealing one’s #acceptance of their #forgiveness in The Messiah. For the #water of the #earth can only cleanse that which is soiled on the #skin. By no means can it cleanse that which is soiled in the spirit; this is #reserved for the #blood of The #Lamb. Again I say to you, baptism by water is nothing, unless one is first washed by The Word, being baptized in the Spirit of Grace and Truth which is received in #YahuShua #HaMashiach, whom you call #Jesus and #Christ. For HE is The True Baptism, The Very Water of Life, in which all must be cleansed to receive everlasting #life.

Therefore beloved, remember:
The spirit of the Word, and not the #letter,
Is the #way, the #truth and the #life...

For The Messiah is indeed coming quickly,
[3]To baptize all in #fire and #glory...

Those of a #wicked #heart, in fire...

And those of the Spirit, in glory, forever and ever!

All Shall Reap That Which They Have Sown, Be It of Good or Evil

7/8/05 From #YahuShua #HaMashiach, Our #Lord and #Savior
The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord concerning those who have #ears yet refuse to #hear, who have #eyes yet refuse to #see: Only those with #hearts left desolate are filled with contempt. For they have not received the #love of the #Truth, [1]nor do they accept Me as I truly am. Rather they hide behind corrupt #doctrine and filthy #tradition, covering themselves with pretense, in an attempt to shield themselves from My #correction. With practiced #speech and a lying #tongue they twist the #Scriptures, behold, they rend the Word of God, [2]for the sake of their own #pride. For they do not know Me, neither do I #live in them. Thus they willingly believe the lies, and seek always to uphold the #commandments of #men, as they slander those sent to them.

Therefore thus says The Lord, to those who dwell in the #churches of men and to all their self-appointed #leaders: Why do you not receive Me?! Indeed you are unable, for you do always push out the #hand! Behold, I send to you a mere #man, that you might receive of My #correction, yet you say he has a #demon! You do always #fight against Me!
Behold, this Word is Truth, the very will of The #Father made known, the Word of The Lord put forth through His #prophets once again. Yet you cry, “False!” because you find they run contrary to your preconceived notions and beliefs, as though you and your established doctrine were somehow above reproach; all the while setting up walls of falsehood, laying down #traps of deceit to #bar My way before Me, seeking always to fortify your #position, lest I expose your #masquerade.
O people of little #faith, you are deceived; you have all been turned aside from the Truth! Churches of men, your doctrines are corrupt, your every tradition unclean, #born of men and the #harlot! She has deceived you, and yet you willingly walk in her ways! Throughout her generations she has deceived the #people; in her lust for #power she has oppressed them, forcing multitudes to embrace the crooked path! She is a harlot, her ways #antichrist, and yet you follow her! Behold, by her own #power and #authority, of which she #appointed to herself, she endeavored to change My Commandments! Yet you nod your #head in #agreement, yes, you obey her #teachings as you forsake My #Sabbaths, upholding many of the same false doctrines and perverse traditions I hate!

Therefore, O churches of men, your #discipline
Shall be severe and your abasement terrible!...

And you, O church of harlots, shall be
Stripped naked and brought to ruin!
Behold, you shall be torn in pieces and left
Utterly desolate, to the astonishment of all people!...

For I do not change! Says The Lord.

[3]So then listen closely and give ear, all you who call of yourselves #Christian, all you who #stone My prophets and slander those sent to you, all you who abuse My Word in #Scripture and desecrate My Sabbaths; hear the Word of The Lord and give heed, be bowed down, for the #mouth of The Living God has spoken: ALL YOU SOW, YOU SHALL REAP! [4]Repent, therefore! Again I say, #repent, lest you also catch #fire as you watch all your works #burn in the Day! [5]For My #anger is kindled against you, O churches of men! And My #wrath grows in its fury, against ALL who lead My people astray!

Therefore call upon My name, in sincerity and in truth!...

Beloved ones, embrace Me as I am,
And not as you would have Me be!
#Obey MY #teaching and turn away
From the commandments of men![6]...

For I, alone, am The #Way and The #Truth,
The #Life without end[7]...

The Five Elements and Their Attributes

The rishis perceived that in the beginning the world existed in
an unmanifested state of Consciousness, avyakta—meaning unmanifest.

From that state the subtle vibrations of the cosmic, #soundless sound Aum manifested.
From the subtle #vibration of #Aum came the #Ether or #Space element.

This #ethereal #element then began to move and through its subtle movements created
the Air element, which is Ether in action.
The movement of Air produced friction and through friction heat was generated.
#Particles of this heat combined to form intense light and from this light the Fire element emerged.

Thus, Ether produced Air and it was #Air that further manifested into #Fire.
The heat of Fire dissolved and liquefied certain ethereal elements, forming #Water
that then solidified to form the molecules of #Earth.

In this way, Ether manifested into the four elements of Air, Fire, Water, and Earth.

From Earth, all physical bodies for organic living beings were created,
including both the plant and animal kingdoms.

Earth was also the origin of all inorganic substances that comprise the mineral kingdom.
Thus, out of the #womb of the #FiveElements all matter was born.

The five basic elements exist in all matter.

Water provides the classic example: the solid state of water, ice, is a manifestation of the Earth principle. Latent heat (Fire) in the ice liquefies it, revealing the Water principle. Eventually water turns into steam, expressing the Air principle.
The steam disappears into Ether or Space.

Thus the five basic elements—Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth—are all present

in one substance.

All five
originated from the energy within Cosmic Consciousness and all five are present in all matter in the >universe. Thus, energy and matter are one.

Man is a microcosm of the universe and, therefore, the five basic elements present in all matter also exist within each individual. In the human body, many spaces are aspects of the Ether or Space element.

The spaces in the mouth, nose, gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract, abdomen, thorax,
capillaries, and tissues are all examples of Space.

Air is the element of movement. All movements involve Air as an element, because it alone moves everything. Any time there is motion, it means Air is present.

The nature of the elements themselves determines the nature of physiology.

Within the human body, Air is present in the pulsations of the heart and the expansion and contraction of the lungs. Under a microscope, even a single cell can be seen to move. Response to a stimulus is the movement of afferent and efferent nerve impulses, which are sensory and motor movements respectively.
Movements of the nervous system are also governed by the Air principle present in the body.

The third element is Fire. The source of Fire and light in the solar system is the sun.
In the human body, the source of Fire is metabolism.

Fire works in the digestive system as well as in the gray matter of the brain,
where Fire manifests as intelligence.

Fire also activates the retina to perceive light.

Therefore, body temperature, digestion, thinking processes, and vision are all functions of bodily Fire. All metabolism and enzyme systems are controlled by this element.

Water, the fourth element, manifests in the body as the secretions of digestive juices, in the mucous membranes and in plasma and cytoplasm. Water is vital for the functioning of all the systems of the body.

For example, dehydration resulting from diarrhea and vomiting must be treated immediately to protect the patient’s life.

Earth, the fifth element, is also present in the microcosm of the human being.
Life is possible on this planet because the Earth holds all living and non-living substances to its solid
surface. In the body, all solid structures are derived from Earth.

The Lord Comes Nigh; Make the Way Straight for His Return

7/3/05 From The #Lord, Our #God and #Savior
The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord to the peoples of the #earth: In My right #hand is the #power to #save; and in My left, #judgment, which I am about to pour out. [1]For I am The Lord your God, The Only God, The God of #Abraham, The God of #Isaac, and of #Jacob [2]whose name is #Israel. [3]And behold, I sent My Only Begotten into the #world, [4]and The Word became flesh, [5]YahuShua, Immanu El.

[6]Again, I am sending The #Holy One to you. Therefore incline your #ears and listen, that you may receive true #knowledge. For as it was at the first, so shall it be at the last, for I do not change. [7]Behold, ahead of The #Messiah did I send #John the #Baptist, the #voice of one #crying out in the #wilderness. [8]In John’s #hand I had placed the #trumpet; and he made the path straight in preparation of The One coming after him, by whom all must be saved.
John indeed baptized with #water and with the Word given him. And now I am sending #144,000[9], in the #spirit of John and in the #power of #Elijah, [10]to baptize with the Word of God and #fire. For I have placed My words in their #mouths, and the Trumpet rests securely in their hands. Therefore #trust these I have sent and am sending, for they are My #witnesses; they hear My #voice and prepare My way before Me.
For My judgments shall fall from #Heaven, upon every #tribe, #tongue, #people and #nation; My punishments shall #rain down hard upon the earth and break the pride of man! [11]Behold, I shall remove all from their places; in My fierce #anger I shall drive them out! The #cities shall be laid #waste and the #houses shall be left desolate, for the #earth shall become one vast desolation!

[12]Yet there is #sanctuary from this #storm,
A way of #escape has been provided;
[13]For He is called #Jesus and #Christ;
#YahuShua #HaMashiach is His #name!...

Call upon Him, do not wait!...

Call upon His name in #sincerity and in #truth,
And you shall surely be delivered[14]...

Says The Lord.

It Is Time... Prepare to Meet Your God

5/14/05 From The #Lord, Our #God and #Savior
The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: My #people have turned from Me, they have altogether forsaken The Lord their God, foolish #children #married to a #world awash in vanity and sin. Therefore, the time has come. Behold, the time has come for My name to resound in all the #earth, for all who dwell upon the earth to be humbled, to be broken without #hand. Indeed, now is the time for all who have #ears to #hear, to hear and give heed; and for those who refuse, to forbear and rebel against Me.
[1]It is time for My servants to #stand up, to receive My #words and also do them. It is time to blow the #trumpet, to #sound the #alarm. It is time for My #spirit to be poured out, for the #hand of The Almighty to stir up the multitudes, for The Word of God to separate and divide the people. It is time for My #watchmen to proclaim the acceptable year of The Lord and the day of vengeance of The Lord their God. [2]For the ears of the first #election are open, and within My prophets I have placed My #voice, once again; I have surely put My words in their #mouths. For I am The Lord, and I do not change.

[3]Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, for thus says The #Holy One of #Israel: Awaken, O foolish people! Arise from your #beds, and prepare to meet your God! My #children, cast away these filthy veils which cover your heads; yes, even you, My people who dwell in #Israel, hear the Word of your #Messiah. [4]For I AM HE, He who was and is and is to come, [5]#YAHUSHUA-YAHUWAH, God in the #flesh, #Immanu El, [6]The Lord your #Righteousness.
[7]For I had come into the world, yet you would not receive Me. [8]Behold, I am coming again, and still you deny Me. Therefore #hear and #understand, and gain #wisdom. For The #Father has proclaimed My #glory from the beginning; even before the house of Israel was My glory put on open #display. For I am in The Father, and The Father is in Me, of which My works also testify, the works He sent Me to do, even the #cross.

[9]And now the #time has come, behold, the #day is near,
When I shall give you yet another #sign,
Even the #sign of The #Son of #Man[10]...

The #heavens shall be divided, and divided again,
The glory thereof stretching from the earth to #heaven,
And the #clouds shall be rolled back like a #scroll[11]...

Behold the brilliance, O earth,
Be bowed down and weep, O sons of men,
For The One whom you pierced is about to appear![12]...

Let every #eye be opened therefore,
Let all in the earth see, until the fullness
Of the #revelation is made complete.

For all in the earth shall be humbled, and the #pride of #man shall be broken in that day. For as it is written: The loftiness of man shall be bowed down and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low, the #idols shall be utterly abolished, and The Lord alone shall be exalted in that day[13]. And for fear of The Lord, many shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the #caves of the #earth, to hide themselves from the terror of The Lord and the glory of His #majesty, when He arises to #shake the earth mightily! [14]And behold, a great remnant shall emerge, who will not go into the holes of the #rocks or into the #caves of the earth, to hide themselves from the terror of The Lord or the glory of His majesty, but will stand fast with #hands uplifted, singing #praises to The Lord their God.
Yet woe to those who shake their fists at Heaven; their #destruction draws near. For the hearts of the ungodly produce only wickedness. Their #throats are like open #graves, their speech is full of deadly deceit. They are practiced liars, and with their #tongues they spew all kinds of threats. And like #venomous #snakes, they conceal #poison behind their #lips. For their #mouths are full of bitterness, and cursing is always upon their #breath. They are quick to do harm, and are not afraid to #kill. Their ways bring only destruction, misery and #death. For the way of #peace is #foreign to them, and the #fear of The Lord they have not known.

[15]Therefore as it is written of Me, so I am and shall be: My #hand shall find all My #enemies, My right hand shall overtake those who hate Me! At My appearing I will make them all like a fiery #furnace; I shall swallow them up in My #anger, and the #fire of My #wrath shall consume them! I will wipe their descendants from the #face of the earth; behold, I shall rid #mankind of their #posterity! For they intended evil against Me, and devised many schemes, but will be unable to perform them! For My #arrows were made ready from the beginning, and when I aim My #bow at their faces they shall surely flee! Therefore I shall be exalted in My #strength, and My people shall sing Me praises when I put My #power on open display! Says The Lord.

The #Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: Behold, the #time draws near, when they will not see The Thief come; [1]when the judgments of God shall fall from #Heaven, even upon the #face of the whole #earth; when the #sign shall appear and the #heavens shall be set ablaze with brilliant #light. [2]For as The #Son of #Man was lifted up on a #tree in the sight of men, so in like manner shall the #sign of The Son of Man be. For that which was the beginning and the end shall also be the #end which brings forth the new #beginning.
Behold, I shall do a new and wondrous thing! I shall lift up a #standard and bring forth a sign, in the #sight of all #nations! I shall pierce the heavens and bathe the earth in glorious #light, and every #eye shall see! Yes, even those hidden in #caves and #shelters shall see and come forth; behold, even the #blind shall see! For on that day I shall #divide the heavens, and divide them again, and all silence shall flee away!
HEAR THE #SOUND OF SCORCHING #FIRMAMENT! BE AWESTRUCK IN ASTONISHMENT AT THE MULTITUDE OF #THUNDER, AND BE HORRIBLY AFRAID! For as the #sparks of a crackling #fire, so shall the sign of The Son of Man be, plus ten thousand million-fold! Says The Lord.

Look up therefore, and keep #watch,
For He is coming quickly[3]...

Yes, The Word who became flesh, #Immanu El[4]...

Thus as it is written, so shall it be:
He is coming on the #clouds and
Every #eye shall see Him, even those
Who pierced Him, and all the #tribes
Of the #earth shall mourn because of Him...

Even so, amen.

#book #consciousness #innerfire #inner #fire #pdf #meditation #innerfire

For the serious aspirant who wants a method that will repair the #nervous #system in a thorough way one must investigate the #esoteric practices of the Six Yogas of #Naropa.

The first yoga is called the practice of inner fire referred to as #tummo in Tibetan or #candali in Sanskrit. A good introductory book into this wonderful practice is Lama Yeshe’s commentary called “The Bliss of Inner Fire.”

Mastery of inner fire quickly brings the mind to its most refined and penetrating state — the experience of clear light, an extra-ordinarily powerful state of mind that is unequaled in its ability to directly realize ultimate reality.

The Six Yogas:

Yoga of Inner Heat or tummo yoga (candali/mystic heat)
Yoga of Illusory-Body
Yoga of Clear Light
Yoga of Dream State
Yoga of the Intermediate State (bardo thodal)
Yoga of the Transference of Consciousness (phowa)

In his teachings, Milarepa frequently referred his tummo meditation as `my short-AH′. One day his disciple Gampopa told him that when he practiced single-pointed concentration he could remain for seven days in one uninterrupted session.

“So what?” replied Milarepa. “You sit for seven days but do not experience the clear light. If you meditated on my short-AH of inner fire you would experience the clear light very quickly.”

If you are serious about gaining proper health and moving forward quickly on your path to enlightenment then it is imperative to seek out a qualified lama to gain empowerment into this ancient tradition. It will help repair the nerves, open up the heart and quickly gain results in meditation.

Now that Buddhism has spread all over the world it is much easier to train in the tsa-lung or trulkor exercises instead of having to journey and take much hardship in traveling through the Himalayan mountains.

These advanced sets of physical exercise will help release the tension or knots in the subtle body that prevent a good flow of spiritual energy in the body. Once you have done this you can literally feel the psychological armor that you may have held onto, ever since you were young, melt away forever.

Needs Initiation by a qualified teacher

** notes and corrections for the first diagram:**

Outer shape of crown chakra and navel chakra are round (the petals of those two chakras remain as triangles).
The inside of crown/navel chakras are round (not triangular as depicted) simply because that is of the central channel.
Navel chakra for tummo practice is visualized as RED for visualization and the side channels are closer than depiction.
ALL moon disks should be visualized as FLAT, not rounded as depicted (for all four chakras).
