The Gates...

'When Stars are in the Quiet Skies...'

Is a poem by Edward Bulwer-Lytton.

Who is able to write even one verse like those...

LOL

Must be God-inspired work.
The Boboli Garden, Florence.



When we look back at some examples of 'high culture' and great wealth that attended those moments of human history (for there have been phases of high culture without the outward material signs of wealth), we must not think that those people were at all ill-informed.

Naturally we consider Caligula not a very good person, but he was the one who took the most important obelisk of the ancient city of Heliopolis, to Rome - and it remains today, the only obelisk never to have fallen down (despite certainly, that Caligula took it, I'm not exactly sure how, maybe stone-by-stone).

It's impossible to explain why people built obelisks, and there are lots of explanations; the most obvious explanation being that these things simply extend upwards into the sky, into 'the Heavens,' and are therefore symbols of humans doing that, symbolically.

The Book of Genesis does have a reference to them, but the word is translated so as to mislead people away from a correct understanding - the correct word translation is: 'a shaft of light that makes alive.'

The Bible contains many references to Heliopolis - Isaiah talks about the people of the City of the Sun, for one instance.
The Paris Obelisk.



But if I go back to what I was saying about the hugely wealthy people of high cultural moments, then we could adduce that the Medici and all of the courtiers and aristocracy of Florence, were extremely well-versed on the meanings behind what statues and formal places they had designed for them.

You will find an obelisk for example, at the Boboli Gardens of Florence. As you also will in Rome, and in Paris. And there will be a long road or path leading up to the obelisk.

And then beyond the obelisk, there will be like a maze or garden of flowers and trees, and then big iron gates.

The obelisk is simply the symbol of human reincarnation, once having been 'handed back' to the Heavens.

Beyond this recycling plant, as it were, are gardens - with flowers, and ways to walk here and there, small fountains, perhaps pools.

Your target is the gate.
'I'll go to your room,
but you have to seduce me.'
Line from the movie.
...Oh. Okay.



As thinking humans, we usually cannot accept that a Divinity is ever likely to be materially 'living' and therefore relatable as just another type of being like us, physical, subject to tiredness and hunger...

It's all very well for the writer of Revelation (and even the Enoch literature) to talk to us about 'palaces' and courts and thrones (in some 'Heaven' place) and so on, but these tell us things in human terms, in the ways and objects and occasions of human mortal life.

Now, I cannot say here whether you will encounter a living human-like form, beyond the gates.

But what I will aver very certainly, is that we must understand that communication - full human communication - is not only a 'whole-of-body' thing; but it is an experience, a powerful feeling when it consists of those deep human expressions. A vast, all-encompassing, feeling in which 'we' as a consciousness and thinking, sensory-processing mind, are entirely wrapped.

Thus the symbolic representation of the Goddess Athena, when she is protecting someone -, is via the aegis, and when actively defending, it is with the shield and the aegis. 

The target are the gates, the gardens contain flowers and small side-tracks, fountains and seats.
No, I can't seduce you.
Would you like some vanilla
butter-cream cakes instead?




You must keep your eye toward the gates, but you must sense the field that will begin to surround you as you approach.

There are very few that are ever allowed to come so close. Most stop at the sacrificial obelisks.

Plato talked about these in his account of what the Egyptian priests of Heliopolis had told him of the mythical Atlantis.

Orpheus visited the records-library at Heliopolis, so did Alexander the Great, so did Plato and everyone, more or less, because in those days, they were closer to the original traditions.

There is no Heliopolis, there is no Vatican obelisk, there is no Gardens of Florence - leading to the gates that you must see.

...If there were, so many people would pilgrimage to those places, trampling on the flowers and through the gardens, to disturb those who live behind the gates.

But I have taught you how to see.

And you may see the gardens and the gates.

And then after that it's all up to you.

And I shouldn't do this because I'm gonna get into big trouble. Again.

The Cult of Medea (and Orpheus) always used trance music to invoke the field...
