Read Tyson's books on the qabalah pertaining to godmaking ritual and perhaps you may see a comparison to a mason ritual where the participant in a ritual is referred to as Immanuel or another name or title?

Which ritual would that be?

Knight Templar

This degree is supposedly for Christians. The description of the initiation is based upon the description provided by the popular author Martin Short.

The words include:

Jesus Emmanuel - Grand word for Knight Templar. Emmanuel appears in the same chapter and the preceding chapter translated from Isaiah to mean Jesus is the Lord. The novice takes part in a stroll around the hall, seven times, which represents a seven year crusade while wearing the costume of a Knight Templar. He is then given a skull and he walks around the hall once more to undergo a years penance.

He swears an oath to protect and maintain the holy Christian faith, under a penalty of loss of life, head chopped off and his skull to be sawn apart such that his brains are exposed to the scorching rays of the sun. He finishes this part by praying to Christ.

He then swears an oath requesting that the spirit which inhabited the skull should testify against him if he should ever willfully violate his obligation as a knight. He then seals this oath by kissing the skull seven times.

back to kabbalah: yhvh = tetragrammaton. yhsvh one spelling for yuhushuah 'jesus" is a pentagrammaton and so is helel lucifer. notice the repetitive consonants the h for the two and the l and e for helel. now helel and yhvh have the h in common.

One can dig into all of the symbols associated with these letters, similarities and other relationships and perhaps crack the mystique and get to the math or whatever basic knowledge is encoded there.

Personally I feel that LIGHT radiates beyond its SOURCE there is no rebellion, no volition, just pure physics, pure nature. LIGHT is an ACTIVE principle whereas darkness is passive. With light something is being consumed, burned, there is change, explosions, fire, chemicals, biology, energy, electrons, photons, atom splitting/combining, etc. Dark always was and always will be. But light...not eternal. All light burns out but its radiance? at light speed does it continue on for eternity after its source has supernova'd and become a black hole?

The light from dead stars is on its way and some of it just reaching us now.

I am bumping this thread, because it is one of the most thought-provoking, well laid out, informative, threads I have ever seen on ATS, backed up with numerous links/sources.

May not be for everyone. I'm still reading through it. Extremely interesting. THIS, is what ATS is here for, for all you newbies starting threads which lack much thought.

It's unfortunate OP's such as this one, aren't coming on ATS as much, and are being replaced by a new generation full of negativity and illiteracy.
