THE CABALA OF BIGGER

Today the rising steel frame of the World Trade Center is expected to become the tallest building in New York City and in the Western Hemisphere; in Australia a mining magnate has commissioned a Chinese shipyard to build a replica of the ill-fated Titanic.

What is it in man pushing him to want bigger? The letters of Adom, the name of the first man, can be rearranged to read Moad/More – meaning, the intrinsic nature of man is to want more; but, according to the Cabala, the greater the vessel the less the light.

This distinction between light and vessel can be seen in human body made in three sections: head, torso and legs; the head, which is the smallest of the three parts, houses the greater light, while the hips and legs, which are furthest from the head, have the least light.

This generality is also true spiritually – humility brings about awakening while the arrogance of money and power blots out heaven. The Midrash-Book of Metaphor quotes God as saying, If you open for me the space the size of a needle head, I will open for you the great hall.

Performing a small action of humility causes a great tumult in heaven; whereas, the endeavors of pointless people with too much money make no impression in heaven, whatsoever. The Talmud-Book of Law teaches, Better to be the tail of the lion than the head of the fox.

THE CABALA OF HYPOCRITE

Muslim Sudan and the Christian South Sudan are reliant on their oil revenues, but the two countries cannot agree how to divide the oil wealth of the former united state; it is feared that disputes over oil could lead the two neighbors returning to war.

Israel, Korea, Vietnam and Sudan all have one thing in common – they were divided as a result of European intervention who supported the Christian minority over the indigenous population in an attempt to divide and conquer, the eternal mantra of Rome, causing brothers to fight.

Rome is depicted in the Torah as a pig with a golden ring through his nose – pigs are led by their nose. Rome smells power and money then uses the Christian religion as an excuse to create turmoil. Those who advocate, turning the other cheek, are the first to raise the sword.

The pig is the only animal in the world having the outer appearance of kosher, cloven hooves, while missing the inner sign of multiple stomachs; the sign of the hypocrite is to be outwardly clean while harboring filthy inner intentions – espousing peace but making war.

The pig is called Charzir/Return; the Cabala explains, In the future the pig will return to become kosher – meaning, Eventually Rome will come clean and stop promoting war in the world while pretending to peace. As Bob says, Sometimes Satan comes as the man of Peace.

THE CABALA OF WOMEN FIGHTERS

The Marines are beginning to integrate women into combat operations but still can't serve as infantrymen or Special Operations commandos, yet they will be able to work in administration, logistics, communications, and motor transport at the battalion level.

The reason why women do not serve in combat is because men become debilitated seeing a woman injured; men can take seeing their comrades blown to pieces but not a woman – the reason in simple, there is an ancient tradition of men fighting to protect women and children.

The Cabala describes man as being a conduit between heaven and earth or between God and woman – delivering the sperm that originates in the soul hewn from the original light of the Creation then delivered to woman who gives birth upon the earth to a new generation.

The Zohar-Book of Secret teaches, There are three knots: God, Heaven and Earth; but, if God is tied to Heaven which is then tied to Earth, there is only two knots? The Cabala explains, The Earth through women is tied directly to the Creator – thus there are three knots.

If Heaven is tied to God and Earth is tied to God then man is furthest from God – therefore man fights. When women fight, the world loses connection with the Creator; when woman is hurt man becomes dysfunctional. Women and children represent the future hope of humanity.

THE CABALA OF MARS

A researcher has spotted lava flows shaped like coils of rope near the equator of Mars, the first time such geologic features have been discovered outside of Earth, these twisty volcanic patterns are also found on Hawaii's Big Island and in the Pacific seafloor.

The Cabala is full of references to the planet Mars as being the previous world known as Tohu/Chaos from where our world was seeded with life and from where the flood emanated 4000 years ago – for hundreds of years, as recorded in the Torah, people watched the flood approach.

The Ari/Lion, who gave us the key to the Cabala 500 years ago, teaches, The Torah begins with the letter Bet/2 indicating this is the second world in our Solar System. The Midrash-Book of Metaphor says, First God Created with Gevorah/Severity but then mixed in Chesed/Kindness.

Blue is the color of kindness and Red the color of severity, yet from the rock on Earth fire is emitted in the form of sparks; while the rock on Mars emits water when struck – the Earth has a magnetic shield due to her molten core but Mars has an icy core and no shield.

The essence of severity is kind while kindness in essence is severe. Mars is a dried flood plain while the Earth has water on the surface but fire within. In a thousand years, as prophesied, we will leave the earth, as if it were an old shirt, and go to Jupiter.

THE CABALA OF SEX

Sexologist,Dr. Adam Ostrzenski has identified the long dreamed of piece of elusive territory with a reputation for near-mythic powers – the doctor’s quarry is the G spot, the long-conjectured trigger for enhancing female orgasm.

One reason why the Rabbis forbad the study of the Cabala until the age of forty was because of the rampant sexual metaphors used in explaining esoteric ideas – for example, Mayim Nikvim/Female Waters that raise up initiating the drawing down Miyam Dakar/Male Waters.

Isha Mazriah Techila/Woman Orgasm First bringing about the birth of a son is another example used to explain why spiritual initiated action seldom has lasting effect. The Ari/Lion who gave us the Cabala 500 years ago was adamant, Sexuality was the language of the sublime.

The human body, and in particular the functioning of sexual desire, is beyond logic – yet, science continues to give physical explanations for everything from sex to death as if the soul does not exist – as if the interaction between Creator and creation is of no significance.

Avraham, 4000 years ago, wrote in the Sefer Yitzira/Book of Form, Creation is a function of: Sofer/Writer-God; Sefer/Book-Heaven and the Ztipor/Story-Earth. Everything upon the earth is a metaphor – through our freedom of perception, we create the story of creation.

THE CABALA OF VIOLENCE

A new study suggests that violence leaves long-term scars on children's bodies — not just in bruises on the skin, but also altering their DNA, causing changes that are equivalent to seven to 10 years of premature aging.

King Shlomo, renown as the wisest of kings, said: Spare the rod and spoil the child – an advice that can be taken two ways: is it better to spoil the child or to discipline the child through severity? The Cabala explains this dilemma through an explanation of man and woman.

The Ten Sefirot, also known as the Tree of Life, is set upon three pillars; the right side is male with the attribute of Chesed/Kindness and the left side is female with the attribute of Gevorah/Severity – the center merges to create the child – Rechamin/Compassion.

Yet, woman tends to be more kind and man more severe because, The basis of revelation is the opposite – like a die where that which is protruded becomes convex and that which is in, comes out. Love requires the parent to go beyond what is natural for the welfare of the child.

Severity coming from a hidden love or a love coming from a hidden severity is good for the child. But, violence for violence sake is bad for the parents and bad for the child. All human beings everywhere know compassion is the most important component of being a parent.

THE CABALA OF SIN

A desperate politician willing to break federal laws to get elected president; or a husband and father trying to protect himself and his family from humiliation of his extramarital affair? John Edwards claims he committed sins but no crimes.

One of the sacrifices performed in the Temple was called Ashom/Sin Offering; and one of these offerings was given by a woman after giving birth – the Cabala explains, The sin relates to Chave/Eve who ate the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge at the beginning of Creation.

It was not the eating of the fruit that was sinful but after eating and realizing she was going to die as a result, she seduced her husband, Adom, to eat the fruit so he would also die. When asked by God, Why he eat the fruit the man blamed the woman, which was his sin.

Together, the two had to leave the Garden of Eden for betrayal and slander – as a result of their actions death was visited upon the earth and with each birth their sin is passed on to the next generation. The politician exemplifies this betrayal, slander and sin.

Crimes are punished by people, but sins are punished by God; the greatest punishment is embarrassment. The Talmud-Book of Law teaches, better a lifetime of embarrassment in this world than one moment of embarrassment, standing before the Light of God, in the next world.
