The Party of Light

Arlen Specter’s switch to the Democratic Party is a political earthquake that will have far-reaching consequences for a host of policy and political issues.

In the American political arena the major parties Democrat and Republican represent the two diverse perceptions of our country–one from without and with from within. The Republican traditionally looked at the country as a whole that interfaced with the rest of the world, while the Democrats excelled in the demographics of the country looking at the welfare and rights of the individual.

The reason this political system has successfully evolved is because it mirrors creation made of two light called Sovev Kol Olomim/Surrounding Light and Mimulai Kol Olomim/Filling Light--an inner light and a peripheral light.

The inner light nourishes life while the outer light holds creation in the infinite care of the Creator. Whenever human endeavor strives to mirror creation success is inevitable.

The End of the Beginning

President Barack Obama Marks 100 Days in Office.

One hundred is significant since it is a number built from ten; ten is fundamental to life in our solar system made from the sun and nine planets; the earth made of seven continents and three oceans; and the human being with ten fingers and ten toes–a hundred is ten times ten.

The Talmud-Book of Law establishes 100 as being death as it says in the Mishna at 90 you are bent and 100 you are dead–what has ended is the beginning. Met/Dead and Ashun/Smoke share the gematria of 420 which refers to the previous world (Tohu/Chaos-Mars) which was built from six times seven equalling 42 as taught in the Cabala.

The chaos inflicted upon the world by those who pray to Mars is beginning repair by those who wish to fix this world and make it right.

Dylan Releases 33rd

Bob Dylan prophet of our times for over fifty years has released his 33rd album; fifty is considered forever in the Torah as in a slave who sells himself forever goes free after 50 years and 33 is also famous.

The release of the 33rd album comes precisely two weeks before the holiday known as Lag Bomer the 33rd day of counting the omer. The 33rd day of the Omer is famous because it is when Rabbi Shimon ben Y’Choi author of the Zohar-Book of Secret 2000 years ago passed away.

Rabbi Shimon instructed his students to celebrate at his passing because he was going back to his essence–this day is celebrated throughout the world with dancing and fire.

In Cabala 33 is known as deep of the deep after that begins the process of illumination; as Bob says in his new album–I feel a change coming on.

Water at the Ends of the Universe

ScienceDaily (Apr. 26, 2009) — Astronomers have found the most distant signs of water in the Universe to date. The water vapor is thought to be contained in a jet ejected from a supermassive black hole at the centre of a far off galaxy.

In the story of creation as related in the Torah/Teaching the only thing which is really created is the human being, everything else including the animals existed previously--the four elements were arranged in their place and the animals were called out of the earth.

The Cabala explains how water existed before fire in a state of ice so cold that it precluded movement; only when movement occurred was there fire and matter along with the concept of time and space. Water is the symbol of unity, the nature of water is to hold together.

At the end of the holiday of Succoth in the fall it is said a drop of liquid, likened to a drop of sperm, is released from the frozen light which exists beyond creation, called OreAinSof/LightWithoutEnd, giving life to creation.

Swine Flu

In a briefing at the White House, the acting head of the Centers for Disease Control, Dr. Richard Besser, confirmed a 20th case of the flu, this one in Ohio.

Pigs are omnivores, and despite their reputation for gluttony, they are generally social and intelligent animals. In a sense pigs are the closest animal to the human being supplying animal parts for those in need like the former vice president. The pig in Hebrew Chazir means Return as it says in the Midrash-Book of Metaphor in the end the pig will return to become kosher.

Rome who destroyed the Second Temple and dispersed the Jewish People throughout the world are portrayed in the Talmud-Book of Law as a pig with a golden rig through his nose; the pig is pulled by the nose and the gold is what he smells.

Our society has built an economic system based on consumerism or for better words, gluttony. By cutting waste at government levels sets an example for the populous.

The New Moon

The Jewish year revolves around the moon and tonight is the first night of the second month a very prestigious time--the day when the First and Second Temple’s construction began; it is also when the Jewish People entered into the wilderness.

The Twelves months of the Jewish calendar correspond to the Twelve Tribes of the Jewish People--this month is the tribe of Yiscicar symbolized by the ox. This northern tribe was known for their ability to sit and study--their were renown for their understanding of the transits of the stars and the regulating of time.

This time, today has an added importance since the holiday of the new moon coincides with the counting of the Omer whose number is 17 gematria Tov/Good--known as Tiferit Sheba Tiferit/Beauty of Beauty when all things are good.

The Center of War

ROME, April 24 (RIA Novosti) -- The first round of Russian-U.S. consultations on a new strategic arms reductions treaty began in Rome on Friday.

It is well known and explained in length in the Cabala how a thing can only be fixed from the essence--the essence of war is Rome. The blessing of Rome, “To live by the sword” given to Esau father of Rome has spent his last. Esau is the twin brother of Yaakov progenitor of the 12 Tribes of the Jewish People.

There are two aspects of Rome--the military and the royalty who have wrapped themselves in the religion of Rome; it is the religion of Rome which has always given direction to the military since the time of the first crusades. The Midrash-Book of Metaphor predicted 2000 years ago that the last King of Rome would be called Irom/Naked because of the embarrassment brought upon his people--Bush in Hebrew means embarrassment.

It is a very good sign that peace is being negotiated in the epicenter of war.
