THE CABALA OF MASS MURDER

The mass shooting at a Denver-area premiere of the new "Batman" film evoked memories of the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School in Littleton, 17 miles from Aurora, where two students opened fire and killed 12 students and a teacher.

The portion of the Torah read the day of the shooting concerned the Arai Miklot/Cites of Refuge where the accidental murderer could run from those seeking revenge. Revenge plays a big part in Middle Eastern culture but does not extend to the insane murderer.

Insanity, even premeditated murder, is considered accidental. America is a powder keg of guns and violence; those unable to withstand the stress of this society often blow up – this area of the country is particularly affected as the weak link in the chain of events.

The Cabala describes the earth as a body with a heart in Jerusalem – Yerusahliam/Complete Fear; when the heart is in turmoil the body suffers. Every body has a weak place where sickness can take hold killing the flesh. When the heart is pure even a weak body becomes strong.

According to the Torah, the accidental murderer must remain in the City of Refuge until the Cohen Godel, the high priest in the Temple dies because it was his job to pray for the people that accidental death should not happen. The ultimate responsibility lies at heart of the matter.

THE CABALA OF CAIN

The body of Otzi the Iceman, a 5,300-year-old mummy found in the Alps in 1991 was so well preserved that scientists could estimate his probable cause of death, an arrow wound to the shoulder that sliced an artery.

The Hebrew year, 5772, dates back to the first human, an androgynous being who gave birth to two sons – Cain and Hevel; each was born with a female for the purpose of reproduction, but Hevel had two, bringing about the indignant wrath of his brother, who he eventual kills him.

Cain is sent away for killing his brother, to wander in the Wilderness, kept alive by a sign placed upon his forehead, to live for seven generations; Lemech, 120 years later, takes his son with him to go hunting – his son says, There goes an animal and Lemach shots killing Cain.

Hearing he has killed his grandfather, he claps his hands together in anguish and unintentionally kills also his son. As a result God makes Lemech the Angel of Death. Death and violence was a rare occurrence during the first 1000 years since the creation of the Adom.

At that point Adom and Chava have another child, Shet who is the progenitor of modern man leading to Noah who marries Nima the daughter of Lemach thus saving the DNA from the both brothers who eventually reincarnate throughout history trying to irradiate violence in the world.

CABALA (KABBALAH) OF THE AMISH

Federal agents arrested the leader of a renegade Amish group and six others in eastern Ohio, charging them with hate crimes for a series of beard and haircutting assaults against Amish men and women.

Aam in Hebrew means People; the Amish are simple people, preferring not to use modern implements, traveling by means of horse and buggy – the Amish are known as a peaceful people, but there is no extreme peace. Extremes by nature are a maelstrom of violence.

The Cabala explains, Extremes are found on the brink of the infinite where all things are possible; morality ceases to exist when all things are possible. The OreAinSof/LightWithoutEnd borders creation and is the prototype for all extremes – infinity unbounded.

The Cabala elucidates the ancient saying, found in the Sefer Yizira, the first book of Cabala, written 4000 years ago by the Patriach Avraham, The end is rooted in the beginning. Violence is more natural than peace; peace comes as a result of compromise and negotiation.

The empathy practiced by the human being is responsible for peace over the domination practiced by animals. The Cabala explains, The animal nature inside the human being is transformed through the practice of inner peace – the animal takes on the purpose of the human.

Mike Tyson’s Softer Side

May 8, 2010

Heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson revealed to audience members during a taping of Center Stage that he's gone vegan.

The Torah goes into great length as to what animals are clean and which animals are impure. At first glance this seems ridiculous; what does it mean pure and impure when concerning animals? The word Kosher is connected to Kesher/Bridge because only certain animals are able to cross over to the spiritual realm.

Animals, like people are more or less able to connect to the spiritual world, but all are necessary for the earth to function; together the world is body and soul–both are necessary. Vegan is the most spiritual of all diets. Why would a man known for bitting the ear off another man go vegan?

It is explained in the Cabala that to the degree a person has deviated from the true path they must go to the other extreme in order to arrive at the middle. A rebbe once said, it is impossible to judge another man because life is long and the process of becoming only is revealed in the end.

The Torah in describing punishments for different crimes rewards violence over deception. A person who is tough and has a tough life is more likely to act out in violence, but deception is premeditated.

The Loaded Law

Loaded guns will be allowed in Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon and other national parks under a new law that takes effect Monday.

Violence might be down but the opportunity and the potential is way up. America being a meld of the peoples of the earth need to conquer violence here at home before God forbid our country explodes. The point of democracy is the people should rule, not the people with the guns should rule.

The Torah predicts the day when the impliments of war will be turned into tools to produce food, a time when we will live without walls to separates us from our enemies–we all want that time to come. If we all want peace to happen then why does it not happen?

The world is like a body with a virus that has weakened the resources of the world and made her vulnerable to sickness. Having guns is a problem having them loaded a catastrophe. The Torah says Strength is he who can control himself, but it is not the strong who kill, but the weak.

Perhaps somewhere there is some cabalistic thing that can make it alright, but I have yet to find it other than Viahafta Laraiacha Chamocha/Love your Neighbor like Yourself.

Begetting War

A warship built with steel salvaged from the World Trade Center has been put into service in New York. Hundreds of US Navy officers and sailors and also families of 9/11 victims attended the commissioning of the USS New York in Manhattan.

Perhaps the most famous prophesy from the Torah is that in the end we will beat our weapons of war into plow shears to help feed the hungry–obviously that has not yet happened.

The revenge of violence begets more violence as noted in the Talmud-Book of Law when Shami stood on the shore of a river and saw a skull floating on the surface; he said to the skull: you drown because you had drown another and in the end he who drown you will also be drown.

America conceived out of violent revolution is proud of her war machine, but does violence make us free? The Torah proclaims all the ways of Torah are peace, yet there is violence all through the Torah.

The Cabala explains the process of rectifying the previous world of Tohu/Chaos is through war, but in the end new souls full of compassion will be sent to the earth at the culmination of these 6000 years–presently we stand at 5770.

Shalom/Peace also has the meaning of whole as it says in the Torah without peace life is incomplete.

The Temple Mount

Sheikh Kamal Riyan called on Jews to “observe Jewish Law” and not visit the Temple Mount. Yesterday's disturbances on the Temple Mount appear to have been sparked by printed announcements by Jewish groups seeking to gain access to the holy area to pray.

This epicenter of disagreement between the Arab and Jewish People is imbecilic. The Dome of the Rock built a generation after Mohammed the Prophet brought the Koran to the world was erected as a remembrance to the Jewish Prophets Dovid and his son Shlomo who built the First Temple 1500 years before–for this reason the Dome of the Rock is not a Mosque.

Since the destruction 2000 years ago of the Second Temple the Rabbis decreed against the Jewish People entering the Temple Mount least they might, while in a state of impurity unintentionally step on the place called the Holies of Holies where was house the Ten Commandments.

What could be more impure that the strife of war brother against holy brother skewing the words of the prophets to obtain political gain?

The key to repairing this core issue is found in our two prophetic books the Torah and the Koran; when we can sit together with mutual respect for our books which is the foundation of our people–then there will be peace in the Middle East.

There is no word in Hebrew or in Arabic for the concept of Religion.

World Violence

A truck bomb exploded across the street from Iraq's Foreign Ministry near the Green Zone Wednesday killing at least 95 people and wounding more than 400; Saudi authorities have arrested 44 suspected militants for allegedly planning to carry out terrorist attacks; a suicide car bomb attack on a convoy of foreign soldiers killed seven people, including Nato troops, and wounded 52 in Afghanistan today, as violence continued in the run-up to Thursday's election.

The highest prophetic vision known to the Jewish People as recorded in the Torah speaks about a Merkeva/Chariot. The Cabala explains how the Merkeva hovers upon creation, a type of apparatus producing endless replicas that serve in heaven and on earth–the Merkeva even conveys the elements within the body; when they leave the doctors say the immune system has broken down.

There are two descriptions of the Merkeva, one with three sides and the other with four; there are the faces of three animals source of life force: Ari/Lion wild animals; Shor/Ox domesticated animals; Nesher/Eagle birds and fish–upon them is the face of a human. Yet, there is another chariot of four sides where the face of the human is on the same level as the animals.

When the human being acts like an animal he becomes much lower than any animal on the earth.

Memorial Day

President Obama observed Memorial Day on today just as his predecessors have: by placing a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Mr. Obama added a new twist: he sent a second wreath to a memorial honoring African-Americans who fought in the Civil War.

Freedom gained through war is as ironic as peace gained through war. In the Torah there are specific laws about war; war can not be waged from four sides because a way of escape must be open and tree bearing fruit can not be used to fight a war with. The human being is compared to a tree who gives fruit in their time.

The bloody battles of the last 100 years have dwarfed all that came before; the technological advances from the industrial revolution has made war a cold-blooded event. Waring for peace is a human condition, but we are promised in the future true peace, a thousand years of peace know as the 1000 years of woman–the reward for staying in the battle of life until the end.

All living beings are soldiers to the Creator, overcoming darkness and bringing light in its stead.
