Court of Record 115 George Lane London E18 1AB courtofrecord.org Rabbi Haïm Korsia Grand Rabbi of ‘France’ cc: Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II also via Pope Francis, Holy See Open Letter Amicus curiæ 5 10 July 2014 Dear Rabbi, We invoke the name YHVH, Ground of Being, with all our love and all our strength and send greeting! 10 We pray that Our Father, the blessed One who has Mercy with His world, YHVH, Ground of Being, whom we call on Him by His name, without fear as we love him, ignite that same love of YHVH in thee by a flying electric spark of His fire that this love burn down all hatred and illusion. We pray that He expand thy heart to embrace thine enemy and know him as thy brother, for thee and thine enemy are One. 15 The purpose of this letter is, by the love of YHVH, to dissolve “République française”, the corporate, lifeless, so-called 5th Republic in the land known as ‘France’; to introduce our Amicus curiæ letters that assist Pope Francis and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II dissolve the United States and the Federal Reserve where by the grace of YHVH, Ground of Being, during this pilgrimage called ‘life’ we in this Court of Record of YHVH must play the role of Joseph in Genesis 47. 20 47:15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money faileth. 47:16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail. 47:17 And they brought their cattle unto Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the asses: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year. 25 The First Book of Moses Called Genesis, King James Bible The treason of policitians 30 The Grand Rabbi will know that the elected politicians have not safeguarded the money of the people, that they are not there to represent the people, and that the French Prime Minister answers to the shadow French oligarchy composed of secret societies, ‘religious’ clubs and purported wizards of the occult who invoke “animal spirits” whom Lord Maynard Keynes called the “witches of all Paris” in his famous essay, the Economic Consequences of the Peace1 detailing the consequences of the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, the cause of the wars since and this era of blackmail and extorsion that bring us to this day in Paris where people who know wisper about these things in fear. Then began the weaving of that web of sophistry and Jesuitical exegesis that was finally to clothe with insincerity the language and substance of the whole Treaty. The word was issued to the witches of all Paris: 35 Fair is foul, and foul is fair, Hover through the fog and filthy air. The subtlest sophisters and most hypocritical draughtsmen were set to work, and produced many 1 www.courtofrecord.org/archive/keynes/The_Economic_Consequences_of_the_Peace/ 1/41 ingenious exercises which might have deceived for more than an hour a cleverer man than the President [Wilson of U.S.]. … 40 The honest and intelligible purpose of French policy, to limit the population of Germany and weaken her economic system, is clothed, for the President's sake, in the august language of freedom and international equality. Quotation from Economic Consequences of the Peace, on lines 965 – 973 in our Letter Rogatory to the British Cabinet2 45 He cautioned about the false desire for so-called “justice” by retribution: ... The following is by a writer in the Vossische Zeitung, June 5, 1919, who accompanied the Hoover Mission to the Erzgebirge: “I visited large country districts where 90 per cent of all the children were ricketty and where children of three years are only beginning to walk.... Accompany me to a school in the Erzgebirge. You think it is a kindergarten for the little ones. No, these are children of seven and eight years. Tiny faces, with large dull eyes, overshadowed by huge puffed, ricketty foreheads, their small arms just skin and bone, and above the crooked legs with their dislocated joints the swollen, pointed stomachs of the hunger oedema.... ‘You see this child here,’ the physician in charge explained; 'it consumed an incredible amount of bread, and yet did not get any stronger. I found out that it hid all the bread it received underneath its straw mattress 3. The fear of hunger was so deeply rooted in the child that it collected stores instead of eating the food 4: a misguided animal instinct made the dread of hunger worse than the actual pangs.’” Yet there are many persons apparently in whose opinion justice requires that such beings should pay tribute until they are forty or fifty years of age in relief of the British taxpayer. 50 55 Footnote 153, Economic Consequences of the Peace by Lord Maynard Keynes 60 65 Yet no one seemed to notice until Europe and the world with it, plunged into that fit of madness known as the Second World War, followed by the era of a civilisation built by theft. The “witches of Paris” have metastatised like a cancer, together with those of Germany, Italy and America and have become the “mafia” that exchange messages between tumours by fighting proxy wars within nuclear reactors as in Fukushima or by laying waste to another city. “The mafia is not in communion with God, they are excommunicated”. Pope Francis5 70 All communication between mafia elements is by lying using the Goebbels technique, by claiming a fiction of honour under a bold lie where neither their honour or Truth of their claim exists. Yet all is not lost, for this “mafia”, like the scavengers that they are, learned the ways of God by terrible means and they know that He exists, even whilst they lead His children to bankruptsy, disaster and death like the Judas goat6. The Grand Rabbi of France shall find all this and more as the process of discovery uncovers the sordid details of the record in YHVH, Ground of Being. A recap 75 80 Our first Act of Faith before we wrote to Pope Benedict XVI on that fateful day, 11 th February 2011, even as we heard of His Holiness’ resignation, was our Open Letter to Professor Richard Dawkins where we show that Genesis in the Torah, paints in the picture language of Egyptian Priests drawn in words, outlines the study of epistmology, the study of how knowing knows and ontology, the organisation of all possible knowledge is grounded in YHVH, Ground of Being and how this by Hume’s Guillotine can be split into Matters of Fact and Relations of Ideas. 2 3 4 5 6 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/British/#sdfootnote62anc In the same way, the ‘successful’, mostly male population in our lovely earth has hidden their ‘money’ under the ‘mattress’ of ‘offshore corporations’, where there is no substance on deposit. In the same way, the “mafia”, UCC legal children, have collected stores of gold instead of using it as money, that is, as an accounting device. vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/news/detail/articolo/francesco-francis-francisco-34844/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judas_goat 2/41 In this and subsequent letters, we outline how these interact to differenciate the three possible schools of philosophy, that of the materialists, those who propose matter and Spirit and those who propose the non-dual school that there is only Spirit, YHVH, Mind. We have covered the difficulty of translating these concepts into French. 85 90 95 100 Our Letter Rogatory to the British Cabinet/Parliament outlines the predicament that must be faced – the end of an era of financial war: banking by fraudulent conversion and colour of law fraud. In this and our subsequent letters we trace and how this must lead to an era of the failure of money as an organising principle in society which currently operates a virtual reality stock and ‘forex’ market. We show that short term contracts (one to three months) to deliver goods that are traded in-exchange for each other can create the first real marketplace in Bills of Exchange in a century. In subsequent letters, we outline how the United States operates a lifeless, corporate Roman Caesar modelled on the Islamic Ottoman Sultan and how imitation of the Sultan has resulted in elevating the laws of man above the Law of God: God is One, Ground of Being, the message painted in pictures in Genesis. We have shown in our Amicus curiæ to His Majesty King Harald V of Norway 7 how ‘democratic’ emulation of the Sultan mentality has resulted in those idiots who shoot first and ask questions later. We have shown that Islam is a religion of Holy Peace8, which by the grace of the Prophet Muhammad, Peace be upon Him, once again renewed the teaching that YHVH is One and that those believe that ‘jihad against heathen/goy/unbelievers’ is something taught in Islam are really worshipping the Sultan that they have made themselves in an image of. We have covered the corruption of the Holy Bible, both the Torah and the Gospel of Jesus Christ and shown how Rabbis set themselves up to extract the wealth of their flock. This ‘unshakeable’ Kingdom, the Promised Land, the Ground of Being cannot be won by ‘trimming the wick of life’, eating kosher food, observing the Sabbath and by studying the Torah. It can only be won by those who: 105 110 Deuteronomy 5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. King James Bible Seen with the clear eyes of the Key of Knowledge, Moses has arranged that LOVE, not fear is the criterion for the Promised Land. Fear only comes in when you are unable 9 to love the LORD, Our Father, the blessed One who has mercy with His world. In contrast, let us look at the translation in the Complete Jewish Bible: Deuteronomy 5 and you are to love ADONAI your God with all your heart, all your being and all your resources. Complete Jewish Bible 115 Resources, eh? The word Soul is gone, replaced with the familiar “your”. Is that the measure of a living soul’s ‘might’? The learned modern translator is a materialist, looking for contributions to his fund and does not possess the Key of Knowledge . Extract from Amicus curiæ to Putin10 120 125 We are all direct and immediate ‘children’ of One, Ground of Being, YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation. The concept of the Father-Son relationship is used amongst ancient peoples as an picture language that indicates the epistemological connection of the manifest with the ‘unmanifest’, imageless, formless, intellectual prior, Vishnu of the Indians, Osiris of Egypt and ‘Atlantis’, the Intellectual Principle of Man of the Greeks, elucidated in the Enneads of Plotinus, the ‘cosmic man presaged in heaven’. We have read the Grand Rabbi’s inaugural speech 11 about finding “unity in diversity”. We believe that the unshakeable epistemological foundation for “unity in diversity” left by Moses, which we have 7 www.courtofrecord.org/Norway 8 www.courtofrecord.org/Islam 9 10 http://www.courtofrecord.org.uk/Putin/#__RefHeading__12193_1115109229 3/41 130 elucidated, is the rigorous method to discover that the suicide-bomber, urged on by lunatics who exploit hatred and the lunatics who exploit hatred and thyself are brothers through One, YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation. Unlike sentimental brotherly-feeling urged by pseudoreligion, the brother-in-reason discovered by epistemology upon the tree of knowledge is not subject to change when the bombs are falling. What is further this ‘brotherhood’ of man points to One, Ground of Being, YHVH – that the ‘other’ brother is really thy ‘Self’. Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz, an English research scholar of Oxford University: If there be a hundred Selfrealised men will it not be to the greater benefit of the world? 135 Sri Ramana Maharishi: When you say ‘Self’ you refer to the unlimited, but when you add ‘men’ to it, you limit the meaning. There is only one Infinite Self. Extract from Talks with Sri. Ramana Maharishi12, page 16 Gospel of Saint John 10:30 I and My Father are One 140 145 150 With such ‘rational’ knowledge, grounded in Being, YHVH, One, one can see for oneself that Mahatma Gandhi, his Indian followers, the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan monks who endure the persecution of their enemies are more orthodox followers of YHVH, Our Father, the blessed One who has Mercy with His world revealed by Moses than many so-called “orthodox” Rabbis in fancy dress who know the rules of Hebrew grammar, who know how to manage a bunch of ‘democratic’ politicians, judge disputes and collect sin offerings. We have spoken of how Adi-Shankara, an Indian sage, sang about how Love of YHVH, Ground of Being, cleansed “a silly grammarian”13. We have also outlined the “short path”, the highway to YHVH, the path of Soul-Enquiry, the method of isolating in one’s own consciousness, That which I-AM, by relentlessly pursuing the “Who am I” in our Amicus curiæ to His Excellency Petro Oleksiyovych Poroshenko, President of Ukraine, who is known as the “chocolate king”. Fraudulent conversion and ‘Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Mirror Reflection’ 155 The “chocolate king” is shown how “UCC Mirror Reflection” works in simple terms comprehensible to anyone who discovers the Matter of Fact that there is no thing on ‘deposit’ at the bank. ‘Deposits’ are created by ‘borrowers’, making those with positive balances debtors. Those with ‘billions of dollars’ or any other currency are the debtors-in-fact with which they have acquired “assets”, shares, gold, real estate, etc., which, due to mirror reflection is indeed still a debt-in-fact, owed back to the people at large. The “wealthy” are merely UCC trustees of the working “assets”, stolen by fraudulent conversion. This is “UCC Mirror Reflection”. Gold and guns are no exception. All the gold and all the guns are “owed” back to the people. 160 Only lunatics and idiots would deny this. Or worship gold as an Idol. The worship of defeated Idols 165 The situation was similar exactly a hundred years ago. Let us learn the lessons painted on the pages of history by YHVH, Ground of Being, who ‘speaks’ the next moment into living consciousness, by forgiving our ‘material’ debt to Him or we would not draw our next breath. Those who believe that YHVH has not ‘spoken’ since the time of Moses, know not the Torah and its message of the living LORD God, YHVH, Ground of Being, within, the Source of our conscious experience. 11 http://tempsreel.nouvelobs.com/societe/20140623.OBS1375/exclusif-la-premiere-interview-du-grand-rabbinde-france-haim-korsia.html 12 www.courtofrecord.org/archive/talks_with_sri_ramana_maharshi_complete.pdf 13 See http://www.courtofrecord.org.uk/Putin/#sdfootnote10anc and http://www.courtofrecord.org.uk/US/US-Steinmeier-cover/#sdfootnote27anc 4/41 Hence the rebuke of Jesus Christ, who said in the Gospel of Saint John 10:30 “I and My Father are One” John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on14 him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 170 175 The Gospel According to Saint John, King James Bible The era leading up to World War I was where Bills of Exchange15 had created unprecedented wealth. Borders were useful to money lenders and financiers for arbitrage and to pit kings and sultans against each other. Religion was seen by the wealthy and powerful as just a tool to fleece gullible people of their spare money. The worship of the fatted golden calf, in all but literal form, was widespread. Guns and gold were seen as a way to kill thy neighbour and steal from him. Extortion was the way of life. The moneylenders of Europe were quite happy to live ‘under’ Caesar, because they controlled Caesar. Circa 1895, to Sister Christine16: “Europe is on the edge of a volcano. If the fire is not extinguished by a flood of spirituality, it will erupt”. 180 “The Western world is governed by a handful of Shylocks. All those things that you hear about — constitutional government, freedom, liberty, and parliaments — are but jokes. … 185 “It is hopeless and perfectly useless to attempt to govern mankind with the sword. You will find that the very centres from which such ideas as government by force sprang up are the very first centres to degrade and degenerate and crumble to pieces. Europe, the centre of the manifestation of material energy, will crumble into dust within fifty years if she is not mindful to change her position, to shift her ground and make spirituality the basis of her life”. - Swami Vivekananda, circa 189617 We know that by 1946, within fifty years at the end of World War II, Europe (and China and Japan) was in ruins. The witness of history to the terrific greed, revenge, hatred and blindness of the world is humbling. 190 “The people of France are mere intellectualists, they run after worldly things and firmly believe God and souls to be superstitious; they are extremely loath to talk on such subjects. This is a truly materialistic country!” Swami Vivekananda, 1 September 190018 195 In Swami Vivekananda’s Memoirs of European Travel19, in October of 1900, we find the accounts of a sage, knower of One, YHVH, Ground of Being, who sees, who sees the impending destruction of a Europe built on show and conformity. The lessons are already prefigured in the picture painted. Whenever a culture idolises the arts as a means to obtain and project ‘power’ in an environment of fear and extortion, it signals that transformation is near: either transformation by a “flood of spirituality” or the transformation in the fires of destruction. 200 And this letter I am writing to you from the last remaining capital of Mohammedan supremacy — from Constantinople! I have three travelling companions — two of them French and the third an American. The American is Miss MacLeod whom you know very well; the French male companion is Monsieur Jules Bois, a famous philosopher and litterateur of France; and the French lady friend is the world-renowned 14 On him, because He, conscious of One, visibly manifested YHVH, Ground of Being, the only ground to stand on. This is epistemological Truth, see Garden of Eden diagram linked within www.courtofrecord.org/Dawkins. 15 See Letter Rogatory to the British Cabinet for discussion on how the Bills of Exchange market was shut down www.courtofrecord.org.uk/British 16 www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda_biography/12_second_visit.htm 17 www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda/volume_3/lectures_from_colombo_to_almora/reply_to_the _address_of_welcome_at_paramakudi.htm 18 www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda/volume_8/epistles_fourth_series/192_hari.htm 19 www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda/volume_7/translation_of_writings/memoirs_of_european_ travel_ii.htm 5/41 205 210 215 220 225 230 singer, Mademoiselle Calvé. … Her musical performances are so highly appreciated that she has an annual income of three to four lakhs of rupees, solely from singing. I had previously been acquainted with her. The foremost actress in the West, Madame Sarah Bernhardt, and the foremost singer, Calvé, are both of them of French extraction, and both totally ignorant of English, but they visit England and America occasionally and earn millions of dollars by acting and singing. French is the language of the civilised world, the mark of gentility in the West, and everybody knows it; consequently these two ladies have neither the leisure nor the inclination to learn English. Madame Bernhardt is an aged lady; but when she steps on the stage after dressing, her imitation of the age and sex of the role she plays is perfect! A girl or a boy — whatever part you want her to play, she is an exact representation of that. And that wonderful voice! People here say her voice has the ring of silver strings! Madame Bernhardt has a special regard for India; she tells me again and again that our country is "trés ancien, tres civilisé" — very ancient and very civilised. One year she performed a drama touching on India, in which she set up a whole Indian street-scene on the stage — men, women, and children, Sadhus and Nagas, and everything — an exact picture of India! After the performance she told me that for about a month she had visited every museum and made herself acquainted with the men and women and their dress, the streets and bathing ghats and everything relating to India. Madame Bernhardt has a very strong desire to visit India. — " C'est mon reve! — It is the dream of my life", she says. Again, the Prince of Wales [His late Majesty King Edward VII, the then Prince of Wales.] has promised to take her over to a tiger and elephant hunting excursion. But then she said she must spend some two lakhs of rupees if she went to India! She is of course in no want of money. "La divine Sarah" — the divine Sarah — is her name; how can she want money, she who never travels but by a special train! That pomp and luxury many a prince of Europe cannot afford to indulge in! One can only secure a seat for her performance by paying double the fees, and that a month in advance! Well, she is not going to suffer want of money! But Sarah Bernhardt is given to spending lavishly. Her travel to India is therefore put off for the present. … We can see above the French use of showmanship or rather show-woman-ship to snag European royalty was already in play. “War” is not just about falling bombs. 235 Monsieur Jules Bois is a famous writer; he is particularly an adept in the discovery of historical truths in the different religions and superstitions. He has written a famous book putting into historical form the devil-worship, sorcery, necromancy, incantation, and such other rites that were in vogue in Mediaeval Europe, and the traces of those that obtain to this day. … And nothing much has changed in a century, with the practices of Mediaeval Europe covered over by a gloss of Hollywood glamour and high technology war machines. 240 245 250 255 … He is a good poet, and is an advocate of the Indian Vedantic ideas that have crept into the great French poets, such as Victor Hugo and Lamartine and others, and the great German poets, such as Goethe, Schiller, and the rest. The influence of Vedanta on European poetry and philosophy is very great. Every good poet is a Vedantin, I find; and whoever writes some philosophical treatise has to draw upon Vedanta in some shape or other. Only some of them do not care to admit this indebtedness, and want to establish their complete originality, as Herbert Spencer and others, for instance. But the majority do openly acknowledge. And how can they help it — in these days of telegraphs and railways and newspapers? M. Jules Bois is very modest and gentle, and though a man of ordinary means, he very cordially received me as a guest into his house in Paris. Now he is accompanying us for travel. We have two other companions on the journey as far as Constantinople — Père Hyacinthe and his wife. Père, i.e. Father Hyacinthe was a monk of a strict ascetic section of the Roman Catholic Church. His scholarship, extraordinary eloquence, and great austerities won for him a high reputation in France and in the whole Catholic Order. The great poet, Victor Hugo, used to praise the French style of two men — one of these was Père Hyacinthe. At forty years of age Père Hyacinthe fell in love with an American woman and eventually married her. This created a great sensation, and of course the Catholic Order immediately gave him up. Discarding his ascetic garb of bare feet and loose-fitting cloak, Père Hyacinthe took up the hat, coat, and boots of the householder and became — Monsieur Loyson. I, however, call him by his former name. It is an old, old tale, and 6/41 260 265 the matter was the talk of the whole continent. The Protestants received him with honour, but the Catholics began to hate him. The Pope, in consideration of his attainments, was unwilling to part with him and asked him to remain a Greek Catholic priest, and not abandon the Roman Church. (The priests of the Greek Catholic section are allowed to marry but once, but do not get any high position). Mrs. Loyson, however, forcibly dragged him out of the Pope's fold. In course of time they had children and grandchildren; now the very aged Loyson is going to Jerusalem to try to establish cordial relations among the Christians and Mussulmans. His wife had perhaps seen many visions that Loyson might possibly turn out to be a second Martin Luther and overthrow the Pope's throne — into the Mediterranean. … The French ambitions to the fore again. Nice woman, ascetic, Pope, etc. 270 275 280 285 290 295 300 305 … But nothing of the kind took place; and the only result was, as the French say, that he was placed between two stools. But Madame Loyson still cherishes her curious day-dreams! Old Loyson is very affable in speech, modest, and of a distinctly devotional turn of mind. Whenever he meets me, he holds pretty long talks about various religions and creeds. But being of a devotional temperament, he is a little afraid of the Advaita. Madame Loyson's attitude towards me is, I fear, rather unfavourable. When I discuss with the old man such topics as renunciation and monasticism etc., all those long-cherished sentiments wake up in his aged breast, and his wife most probably smarts all the while. Besides, all French people, of both sexes, lay the whole blame on the wife; they say, "That woman has spoilt one of our great ascetic monks!" Madame Loyson is really in a sorry predicament — specially as they live in Paris, in a Catholic country. They hate the very sight of a married priest; no Catholic would ever tolerate the preaching of religion by a man with family. And Madame Loyson has a bit of animus also. Once she expressed her dislike of an actress, saying, “It is very bad of you to live with Mr. So-and-so without marrying him”. The actress immediately retorted, “I am a thousand times better than you. I live with a common man; it may be, I have not legally married him; whereas you are a great sinner — you have made such a great monk break his religious vows! If you were so desperately in love with the monk, why, you might as well live as his attending maid; but why did you bring ruin on him by marrying him and thus converting him into a householder?” However I hear all and keep silent. But old Père Hyacinthe is a really sweet-natured and peaceful man, he is happy with his wife and family — and what can the whole French people have to say against this? I think, everything would be settled if but his wife climbed down a bit. But one thing I notice, viz. that men and women, in every country, have different ways of understanding and judging things. Men have one angle of vision, women another; men argue from one standpoint, women from another. Men extenuate women and lay the blame on men; while women exonerate men and heap all the blame on women. … From Paris our friend Maxim has supplied me with letters of introduction to various places, so that the countries may be properly seen. Maxim is the inventor of the famous Maxim gun 20 — the gun that sends off a continuous round of balls and is loaded and discharged automatically without intermission. Maxim is by birth an American; now he has settled in England, where he has his gunfactories etc. Maxim is vexed if anybody alludes too frequently to his guns in his presence and says, "My friend, have I done nothing else except invent that engine of destruction?" Maxim is an admirer of China and India and is a good writer on religion and philosophy etc. Having read my works long since, he holds me in great — I should say, excessive — admiration. He supplies guns to all kings and rulers and is well known in every country, though his particular friend is Li Hung Chang, his special regard is for China and his devotion, for Confucianism . He is in the habit of writing occasionally in the newspapers, under Chinese pseudonyms, against the Christians — about what takes them to China, their real motive, and so forth. He cannot at all bear the Christian missionaries preaching their religion in China! His wife also is just like her husband in her regard for China and hatred of Christianity! Maxim has no issue; he is an old man, and immensely rich. The tour programme was as follows — from Paris to Vienna, and thence to Constantinople, by rail; then by steamer to Athens and Greece, then across the Mediterranean to Egypt, then Asia Minor, 20 www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b03z2d1g/the-machine-gun-and-skyes-band-of-brothers 7/41 310 315 320 325 330 335 340 345 350 355 360 Jerusalem, and so on. The “Oriental Express” runs daily from Paris to Constantinople, and is provided with sleeping, sitting, and dining accommodations after the American model. Though not perfect like the American cars, they are fairly well furnished. I am to leave Paris by that train on October 24 (1900). … Today is the 23rd October; tomorrow evening I am to take leave of Paris. This year Paris is a centre of the civilised world, for it is the year of the Paris Exhibition, and there has been an assemblage of eminent men and women from all quarters of the globe. The master-minds of all countries have met today in Paris to spread the glory of their respective countries by means of their genius. And the daily reunion of numbers of distinguished men and women which Mr. Leggett brought about at an enormous expense in his Parisian mansion, by inviting them to at-homes — that too ends today. All types of distinguished personages — poets, philosophers, scientists, moralists, politicians, singers, professors, painters, artists, sculptors, musicians, and so on, of both sexes — used to be assembled in Mr. Leggett's residence, attracted by his hospitality and kindness. That incessant outflow of words, clear and limpid like a mountainfall, that expression of sentiments emanating from all sides like sparks of fire, bewitching music, the magic current of thoughts from master minds coming into conflict with one another — which used to hold all spellbound, making them forgetful of time and place — these too shall end. Everything on earth has an end. Once again I took a round over the Paris Exhibition today — this accumulated mass of dazzling ideas, like lightning held steady as it were, this unique assemblage of celestial panorama on earth! It has been raining in Paris for the last two or three days. During all this time the sun who is ever kind to France has held back his accustomed grace. Perhaps his face has been darkened over with clouds in disgust to witness the secretly flowing current of sensuality behind this assemblage of arts and artists, learning and learned folk, or perhaps he has hid his face under a pall of cloud in grief over the impending destruction of this illusive heaven of particoloured wood and canvas. We too shall be happy to escape. The breaking up of the Exhibition is a big affair; the streets of this heaven on earth, the Eden-like Paris, will be filled with knee-deep mud and mortar. With the exception of one or two main buildings, all the houses and their parts are but a display of wood and rags and whitewashing — just as the whole world is! And when they are demolished, the lime-dust flies about and is suffocating; rags and sand etc. make the streets exceedingly dirty; and, if it rains in addition, it is an awful mess. In the evening of October 24 the train left Paris. The night was dark and nothing could be seen. Monsieur Bois and myself occupied one compartment — and early went to bed. On awakening from sleep we found we had crossed the French frontier and entered German territory. I had already seen Germany thoroughly; but Germany, after France, produces quite a jarring effect. "On the one hand the moon is setting" (ययात्ययेकततोऽस्तशशिखररं पशतरतोषधधीनयारं — From Kalidasa's Shakuntalâ.) — the world-encompassing France is slowly consuming herself in the fire of contemplated retribution — while on the other hand, centralised, young, and mighty Germany has begun her upward march above the horizon with rapid strides. On one side is the artistic workmanship of the dark-haired, comparatively short-statured, luxurious, highly civilised French people, to whom art means life; and on the other, the clumsy daubing, the unskilful manipulation, of tawny-haired, tall, gigantic German. After Paris there is no other city in the Western world; everywhere it is an imitation of Paris — or at least an attempt at it. But in France that art is full of grace and ethereal beauty, while in Germany, England, and America the imitation is coarse and clumsy . Even the application of force on the part of the French is beautiful, as it were, whereas the attempt of the Germans to display beauty even is terrible. The countenance of French genius, even when frowning in anger, is beautiful; that of German genius, even when beaming with smiles, appears frightful, as it were. French civilisation is full of nerve, like camphor or musk — it volatilises and pervades the room in a moment; while German civilisation is full of muscle, heavy like lead or mercury — it remains motionless and inert wherever it lies. The German muscle can go 8/41 on striking small blows untiringly, till death; the French have tender, feminine bodies, but when they do concentrate and strike, it is a sledge-hammer blow and is irresistible. 365 370 375 380 385 390 395 400 405 410 The Germans are constructing after the French fashion big houses and mansions, and placing big statues, equestrian figures, etc. on top of them, but on seeing a double-storeyed German building one is tempted to ask — is it a dwelling-house for men, or a stable for elephants and camels, while one mistakes a five-storeyed French stable for elephants and horses as a habitation for fairies. America is inspired by German ideals; hundreds of thousand Germans are in every town. The language is of course English, but nevertheless America is being slowly Germanised. Germany is fast multiplying her population and is exceptionally hardy. Today Germany is the dictator to all Europe, her place is above all! Long before all other nations, Germany has given man and woman compulsory education, making illiteracy punishable by law, and today she is enjoying the fruits of that tree. The German army is the foremost in reputation, and Germany has vowed to become foremost in her navy also. German manufacture of commodities has beaten even England! German merchandise and the Germans themselves are slowly obtaining a monopoly even in the English colonies. At the behest of the German Emperor all the nations have ungrudgingly submitted to the lead of the German Generalissimo in the battle-fields of China! The whole day the train rushed through Germany, till in the afternoon it reached the frontiers of Austria, the ancient sphere of German supremacy, but now an alien territory. There are certain troubles in travelling through Europe. In every country enormous duties are levied upon certain things, or some articles of merchandise are the monopoly of the Government, as for instance, tobacco. Again, in Russia and Turkey, you are totally forbidden to enter without a royal passport; a passport you must always have. Besides, in Russia and Turkey, all your books and papers will be seized; and when on perusal the authorities are satisfied that there is nothing in them against the Russian or Turkish Government and religion, then only they will be returned, otherwise they will all be confiscated. In other countries your tobacco is a source of great trouble. You must open your chest, and trunk and packages for inspection whether they contain tobacco etc. or not. And to come to Constantinople one has to pass through two big States — Germany and Austria, and many petty ones; the latter had formerly been districts of Turkey, but later on the independent Christian kings made a common cause and wrested as many of these Christian districts from Mohammedan hands as they could. The bite of these tiny ants is much worse than even that of the bigger ones. In the evening of October 25 the train reached Vienna, the capital of Austria. The members of the royal family in Austria and Russia are styled Archdukes and Archduchesses. Two Archdukes are to get down at Vienna by this train; and until they have done so the other passengers are not allowed to get down. So we had to wait. A few officers in laced uniform and some soldiers with feathered caps were waiting for the Archdukes, who got down surrounded by them. We too felt relieved and made haste to get down and have our luggage passed. There were few passengers, and it did not take us much time to show our luggage and have it passed. A hotel had already been arranged for, and a man from the hotel was waiting for us with a carriage. We reached the hotel duly. It was out of the question to go out for sight-seeing during the night; so the next morning we started to see the town. In all hotels, and almost in all the countries of Europe except England and Germany, the French fashion prevails. They eat twice a day like the Hindus; in the morning by twelve o'clock, and in the evening by eight. Early in the morning, that is, about eight or nine, they take a little coffee. Tea is very little in vogue except in England and Russia. The morning meal is called in French déjeuner — that is, breakfast, and the evening meal dîner — that is, dinner. Tea is very much in use in Russia — it is too cold, and China is near enough. Chinese tea is excellent, and most of it goes to Russia. The Russian mode of drinking tea is also analogous to the Chinese, that is, without mixing milk. Tea or coffee becomes injurious like poison if you mix milk with it. The real tea-drinking races, the Chinese, Japanese, Russians, and the inhabitants of Central Asia, take tea without milk. Similarly, the original coffee-drinking races, such as the Turks, drink coffee without milk. Only in Russia they put a slice of lemon and a lump of sugar into the tea. The poor people place a lump of sugar in the mouth and drink tea over it, and when one has finished drinking, one passes that lump on to another, who repeats the process. 9/41 415 420 425 430 435 440 445 450 455 460 465 Vienna is a small city after the model of Paris. But the Austrians are German by race. The Austrian Emperor was hitherto the Emperor of almost the whole of Germany. In the present times, owing to the far-sightedness of King Wilhelm of Prussia, the wonderful diplomacy of his able minister, Bismark, and the military genius of General Von Moltke, the King of Prussia is the Emperor of the whole of Germany barring Austria. Austria, shorn of her glory and robbed of her power, is somehow maintaining her ancient name and prestige. The Austrian royal line — the Hapsburg Dynasty — is the oldest and most aristocratic dynasty in Europe. It was this Austrian dynasty which hitherto rules Germany as Emperors — Germany whose princes are seated on the thrones of almost all the countries of Europe, and whose petty feudatory chiefs even occupy the thrones of such powerful empires as England and Russia. The desire for that honour and prestige Austria still cherishes in full, only she lacks the power. Turkey is called “the sick man” of Europe; then Austria should be called “the sick dame”. Austria belongs to the Catholic sect, and until recently the Austrian Empire used to be called “the Holy Roman Empire”. Modern Germany has a preponderance of Protestants. The Austrian Emperor has always been the right-hand man of the Pope, his faithful follower, and the leader of the Roman Catholic sect. Now the Austrian Emperor is the only Catholic Ruler in Europe; France, the eldest daughter of the Catholic Church, is now a Republic, while Spain and Portugal are downfallen! Italy has given only room enough for the Papal throne to be established, robbing the Pope's entire splendour and dominion; between the King of Italy and the Pope of Rome there is no love lost, they cannot bear each other's sight . Rome, the capital of the Pope, is now the capital of Italy. The King lives in the Pope's ancient palace which he has seized, and the ancient Italian kingdom of the Pope is now confined within the precincts of the Vatican. But the Pope has still great influence in religious matters — and the chief supporter of this is Austria. As a result of the struggle against Austria — against the age-long thraldom of Austria, the ally of the Pope — up rose modern Italy. Consequently Austria is against Italy — against, because she lost her. Unfortunately, however, young Italy, under England's misdirection, set herself to create a powerful army and navy. But where was the money? So, involved in debt, Italy is on the way to ruin; and to her misfortune, she brought on herself a fresh trouble by proceeding to extend her empire in Africa. Defeated by the Abyssinian monarch, she has sunk down, bereft of glory and prestige. Prussia in the meantime defeated Austria in a great war and thrust her off to a great distance. Austria is slowly dying, while Italy has similarly fettered herself by the misuse of her new life. The Austrian royal line is still the proudest of all European royal families. It boasts of being a very ancient and very aristocratic dynasty. The marriages and other connections of this line are contracted with the greatest circumspection, and no such relationship can be established with families that are not Roman Catholic. It was the glamour of a connection with this line that led to the fall of Napoleon the Great. Quaintly enough, he took it into his head to marry a daughter of some noble royal family and found a great dynasty through a succession of descendants. The hero who, questioned as to his pedigree, had replied, "I owe the title to my nobility to none — I am to be the founder of a great dynasty" — that is to say, that he would originate a powerful dynasty, and that he was not born to glorify himself with the borrowed plumes of some ancestor — that hero fell into this abyss of family prestige. The divorce of the Empress Josephine, the defeat of the Austrian Emperor in battle and taking his daughter to wife, the marriage of Bonaparte in great pomp with Marie Louise, the Princess of Austria, the birth of a son, the installation of the new-born babe as the King of Rome, the fall of Napoleon, the enmity of his father-in-law, Leipsic, Waterloo, St. Helena, Empress Marie Louise living in her father's house with her child, the marriage of Napoleon's royal consort with an ordinary soldier, the death of his only son, the King of Rome, in the house of his maternal grandfather — all these are well-known incidents of history. Fallen in a comparatively weakened condition, France is now ruminating on her past glory — nowadays there are very many books on Napoleon. Dramatists like Sardou are writing many dramas on Napoleon dead and gone; and actresses like Madame Bernhardt and Réjane are performing those plays every night before bumper houses. Recently Madame Bernhardt has created a great attraction in Paris by playing a drama entitled L’aiglon (the Young Eagle). The young Eagle is the only son of Napoleon, practically interned in his maternal grandfather's 10/41 470 475 480 485 490 495 500 505 510 515 residence, the Palace of Vienna. The Austrian Emperor's minister, the Machiavellian Metternich, is always careful not to allow the tales of heroism of his father to enter into the boy's mind. But a few of Bonaparte's veterans contrived to get themselves admitted into the boy's service in the Schönbrunn Palace, incognito; their idea was to somehow take the boy over to France and found the Bonaparte line by driving out the Bourbons reinstated by the combined European potentates. The child was the son of a great hero, and very soon that latent heroism woke up in him to hear the glorious tales of battle of his father. One day the boy fled from the Schönbrunn Palace accompanied by the conspirators. But Metternich's keen intellect had already scented the matter, and he cut off the journey. The son of Bonaparte was carried back to the Schönbrunn Palace and the Young Eagle, with his wings tied, as it were, very soon died of a broken heart! This Schönbrunn Palace is an ordinary palace. Of course, the rooms etc. are lavishly decorated; in one of them perhaps one meets with only Chinese workmanship, in another only works of Hindu art, in a third the productions of some other country, and so on; and the garden attached to the Palace is very charming indeed. But all the people that now go to visit this Palace go there with the object of seeing the room where Bonaparte's son used to lie, or his study, or the room in which he died, and so forth. Many thoughtless French men and women are interrogating the guard, which room belonged to "L’aiglon", which bed did "L’aiglon" use to occupy, and so on. What silly questions, these! The Austrians only know that he was the son of Bonaparte, and the relation was established by forcibly taking their girl in marriage; that hatred they have not yet forgotten. The Prince was a grandchild of the Emperor, and homeless, so they could not help giving him a shelter, but they could give him no such title as "King of Rome"; only, being the grandson of the Austrian Emperor, he was an Archduke, that was all. It may be that you French people have now written a book on him, making him the Young Eagle, and the addition of imaginary settings and the genius of Madame Bernhardt have created a great interest in the story, but how should an Austrian guard know that name? Besides, it has been written in that book that the Austrian Emperor, following the advice of his minister Metternich, in a way killed Napoleon's son! Hearing the name "L’aiglon", the guard put on a long face and went on showing the rooms and other things thoroughly disgusted at heart; what else could he do? — it was too much for him to give up the tips. Moreover, in countries like Austria etc., the military department is too poorly paid, they have to live almost on a bare pittance; of course they are allowed to go back home after a few years' service. The guard's countenance darkened as an expression of his patriotism, but the hand instinctively moved towards the tip. The French visitors put some silver pieces into the guard's hand and returned home talking of "L’aiglon" and abusing Metternich, while the guard shut the doors with a long salute. In his heart he must have given sweet names to the ancestors of the whole French people. We can take note here of how successful was this bit of psychological warfare, a name L’aiglon and a play and a whole nation is obsessed. It is no surprise that the French film company, Gaumont, ‘the oldest’, is the nexus of a world Cult of Power. The thing most worth seeing in Vienna is the Museum, specially the Scientific Museum, an institution of great benefit to the student. There is a fine collection of the skeletons of various species of ancient extinct animals. In the Art Gallery, paintings by Dutch artists form the major portion. In the Dutch school, there is very little attempt at suggestiveness; this school is famous for its exact copy of natural objects and creatures. One artist has spent years over the drawing of a basketful of fish, or a lump of flesh, or a tumbler of water — and that fish, or flesh, or water in the tumbler is wonderful. But the female figures of the Dutch school look just like athletes. There is of course German scholarship and German intellectuality in Vienna, but the causes which helped the gradual decay of Turkey are at work here also — that is to say, the mixture of various races and languages. The population of Austria proper speaks German; the people of Hungary belong to the Tartar stock, and have a different language; while there are some who are Greekspeaking and are Christians belonging to the Greek Church. Austria has not the power to fuse together so many different sects. Hence she has fallen. To “fuse together” must not be misunderstood as so many would wish. This is not the talk of a man 11/41 520 525 530 535 540 contemplating inflicting the liturgy of uniformity or in the genocide of a race or religion. Swami Vivekananda came from India, which has long “fused together” so many different religions, languages and peoples and made them successful. The Muhammadans, for example, reached their pinnacle of civilisation in India in the Mogul Emperors ‡. See Swami Vivekananda’s famous speech at the World Parliament of Religions, Chicago, 1893.21 In the present times a huge wave of nationalism is sweeping over Europe, where people speaking the same tongue, professing the same religion, and belonging to the same race want to unite together. Wherever such union is being effectively accomplished, there is great power being manifested; and where this is impossible, death is inevitable. After the death of the present Austrian Emperor, (Francis Joseph II died in 1916) Germany will surely try to absorb the German-speaking portion of the Austrian Empire — and Russia and others are sure to oppose her; so there is the possibility of a dreadful war. The present Emperor being very old, that catastrophe may take place very early. The German Emperor is nowadays an ally of the Sultan of Turkey; and when Germany will attempt to seize Austrian territory, Turkey, which is Russia's enemy, will certainly offer some resistance to Russia; so the German Emperor is very friendly towards Turkey. Three days in Vienna were sufficient to tire me. To visit Europe after Paris is like tasting an inferior preparation after a sumptuous feast — that dress, and style of eating, that same fashion everywhere; throughout the land you meet with that same black suit, and the same queer hat — disgusting! Besides, you have clouds above, and this swarm of people with black hats and black coats below — one feels suffocated, as it were. All Europe is gradually taking up that same style of dress, and that same mode of living! It is a law of nature that such are the symptoms of death! By hundreds of years of drill, our ancestors have so fashioned us that we all clean our teeth, wash our face, eat our meals, and do everything in the same way, and the result is that we have gradually become mere automata; the life has gone out, and we are moving about, simply like so many 21 www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda/volume_1/addresses_at_the_parliament/v1_c1_response_t o_welcome.htm Sisters and Brothers of America, It fills my heart with joy unspeakable to rise in response to the warm and cordial welcome which you have given us. I thank you in the name of the most ancient order of monks in the world; I thank you in the name of the mother of religions; and I thank you in the name of millions and millions of Hindu people of all classes and sects. My thanks, also, to some of the speakers on this platform who, referring to the delegates from the Orient, have told you that these men from far-off nations may well claim the honour of bearing to different lands the idea of toleration. I am proud to belong to a religion which has taught the world both tolerance and universal acceptance. We believe not only in universal toleration, but we accept all religions as true. I am proud to belong to a nation which has sheltered the persecuted and the refugees of all religions and all nations of the earth. I am proud to tell you that we have gathered in our bosom the purest remnant of the Israelites, who came to Southern India and took refuge with us in the very year in which their holy temple was shattered to pieces by Roman tyranny. I am proud to belong to the religion which has sheltered and is still fostering the remnant of the grand Zoroastrian nation. I will quote to you, brethren, a few lines from a hymn which I remember to have repeated from my earliest boyhood, which is every day repeated by millions of human beings: “As the different streams having their sources in different places all mingle their water in the sea, so, O Lord, the different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee.” The present convention, which is one of the most august assemblies ever held, is in itself a vindication, a declaration to the world of the wonderful doctrine preached in the Gita: “Whosoever comes to Me, through whatsoever form, I reach him; all men are struggling through paths which in the end lead to me.” Sectarianism, bigotry, and its horrible descendant, fanaticism, have long possessed this beautiful earth. They have filled the earth with violence, drenched it often and often with human blood, destroyed civilisation and sent whole nations to despair. Had it not been for these horrible demons, human society would be far more advanced than it is now. But their time is come; and I fervently hope that the bell that tolled this morning in honour of this convention may be the death-knell of all fanaticism, of all persecutions with the sword or with the pen, and of all uncharitable feelings between persons wending their way to the same goal. Swami Vivekananda 12/41 545 550 555 560 565 570 575 580 585 590 595 machines! Machines never say "yea" or "nay", never trouble their heads about anything, they move on "in the way their forefathers have gone", and then rot and die. The Europeans too will share the same fate! "The course of time is ever changing! If all people take to the same dress, same food, same manner of talking, and same everything, gradually they will become like so many machines, will gradually tread the path their forefathers have trod", and as an inevitable consequence of that — they will rot and die! On the 28th October, at 9 p.m., we again took that Orient Express train, which reached Constantinople on the 30th. These two nights and one day the train ran through Hungary, Serbia, and Bulgaria. The people of Hungary are subjects of the Austrian Emperor, whose title, however, is "Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary". The Hungarians and Turks are of the same race, akin to the Tibetans. The Hungarians entered Europe along the north of the Caspian Sea, while the Turks slowly occupied Europe through the western borders of Persia and through Asia Minor. The people of Hungary are Christians, and the Turks are Mohammedans, but the martial spirit characteristic of Tartar blood is noticeable in both. The Hungarians have fought again and again for separation from Austria and are now but nominally united. The Austrian Emperor is King of Hungary in name only. Their capital, Budapest, is a very neat and beautiful city. The Hungarians are a pleasure-loving race and fond of music, and you will find Hungarian bands all over Paris. Serbia, Bulgaria, and the rest were districts of Turkey and have become practically independent after the Russo-Turkish War; but the Sultan of Turkey is yet their Emperor; and Serbia and Bulgaria have no right regarding foreign affairs. There are three civilised nations in Europe — the French, the Germans, and the English. The rest are almost as badly off as we are, and the majority of them are so uncivilised that you can find no race in Asia so degraded. Throughout Serbia and Bulgaria you find the same mud houses, and people dressed in tattered rags, and heaps of filth — and I was almost inclined to think I was back to India! Again, as they are Christians, they must have a number of hogs; and a single hog will make a place more dirty than two hundred barbarous men will be able to do. Living in a mud house with mud roof, with tattered rags on his person, and surrounded by hogs — there you have your Serb or Bulgarian! After much bloodshed and many wars, they have thrown off the yoke of Turkey; but along with this they have got a serious disadvantage — they must construct their army after the European model, otherwise the existence of not one of them is safe for a day. Of course, sooner or later they will all one day be absorbed by Russia; but even this two days' existence is impossible without an army. So they must have conscription. In an evil hour, did France suffer defeat from Germany. Through anger and fear she made every citizen a soldier. Every man must serve for some time in the army and learn the military science; there is no exemption for anybody. He must have to live in the barracks for three years and learn to fight, shouldering his gun, be he a millionaire by birth. The government will provide for his food and clothing, and the salary will be a centime (one pice) a day. After this he must be always ready for active service for two years at his home; and another fifteen years he must be ready to present himself for service at the first call. Germany set a lion to fury, so she too had to be ready. In other countries also conscription has been introduced in mutual dread of one another — so throughout Europe, excepting only England. England, being an island, is continually strengthening her navy, but who knows if the lessons of the Boer War will not force her to introduce conscription. Russia has the largest population of all, so she can amass the biggest army in Europe. Now, the titular states, like Serbia and Bulgaria, which the European Powers are creating by dismembering Turkey — they, too, as soon as they are born, must have up-to-date trained and well-equipped armies and guns etc. But ultimately who is to supply the funds? Consequently the peasants have had to put on tattered rags — while in the towns you will find soldiers dressed in gorgeous uniforms. Throughout Europe there is a craze for soldiers — soldiers everywhere. Still, liberty is one thing and slavery another; even best work loses its charm if one is forced to do it by another . Without the idea of personal responsibility, no one can achieve anything great. Freedom with but one meal a day and tattered rags on is a million times better than slavery in gold chains. A slave suffers the miseries of hell both here and hereafter. The people of Europe joke about the Serbs and Bulgarians etc., and taunt them with their mistakes and shortcomings. But can they 13/41 600 605 610 615 620 625 630 635 640 645 650 attain proficiency all in a day, after so many years of servitude? Mistakes they are bound to commit — ay, by the hundreds — but they will learn through these mistakes and set them right when they have learnt. Give him responsibility and the weakest man will become strong, and the ignorant man sagacious. The train is traversing Hungary, Rumania, and other countries. Among the races that inhabit the moribund Austrian Empire, the Hungarians yet possess vitality. All the races of Europe, except one or two small ones, belong to the great stock which European scholars term the Indo-European or Aryan race. The Hungarians are among the few races which do not speak a Sanskritic language. The Hungarians and Turks, as already stated, belong to the same race . In comparatively modern times this very powerful race established their sovereignty in Asia and Europe. The country now called Turkistan, lying to the north of the Western Himalayas and the Hindukush range, was the original home of the Turks. The Turkish name for that country is Chagwoi. The Mogul dynasty of Delhi, the present Persian royal line, the dynasty of the Turkish Sultan of Constantinople, and the Hungarians have all gradually extended their dominion from that country, beginning with India, and pushing right up to Europe, and even today these dynasties style themselves as Chagwois and speak a common language. Of course these Turks were uncivilised ages ago, and used to roam with herds of sheep, horses, and cattle, taking their wives and children and every earthly possession with them, and encamp for some time wherever they could find enough pasture for their beasts. And when grass and water ran short there, they used to remove somewhere else. Even now many families of this race lead nomadic lives in this way in Central Asia. They have got a perfect similarity with the races of Central Asia as regards language, but some difference in point of physiognomy. The Turk's face resembles that of the Mongolian in the shape of the head and in the prominence of the cheek-bone, but the Turk's nose is not flat, but rather long, and the eyes are straight and large, though the space between the eyes of comparatively wide, as with the Mongolians. It appears that from a long time past Aryan and Semitic blood has found its way into this Turkish race. From time immemorial the Turks have been exceedingly fond of war. And the mixture with them of Sanskrit-speaking races and the people of Kandahar and Persia has produced the war-loving races such as the Afghans, Khiljis, Hazaras, Barakhais, Usufjais, etc., to whom war is a passion and who have frequently oppressed India. In very ancient times this Turkish race repeatedly conquered the western provinces of India and founded extensive kingdoms. They were Buddhists, or would turn Buddhists after occupying Indian territory. In the ancient history of Kashmir there is mention of these famous Turkish Emperors, Hushka, Yushka, and Kanishka. It was this Kanishka who founded the Northern school of Buddhism called the Mahâyâna. Long after, the majority of them took to Mohammedanism and completely devastated the chief Buddhistic seats of Central Asia such as Kandahar and Kabul. Before their conversion to Mohammedanism they used to imbibe the learning and culture of the countries they conquered, and by assimilating the culture of other countries would try to propagate civilisation. But ever since they became Mohammedans, they have only the instinct for war left in them; they have not got the least vestige of learning and culture; on the contrary, the countries that come under their sway gradually have their civilisation extinguished. In many places of modern Afghanistan and Kandahar etc., there yet exist wonderful Stupas, monasteries, temples and gigantic statues built by their Buddhistic ancestors. As a result of Turkish admixture and their conversion to Mohammedanism, those temples etc. are almost in ruins, and the present Afghans and allied races have grown so uncivilised and illiterate that far from imitating those ancient works of architecture, they believe them to be the creation of supernatural spirits like the Jinn etc., and are firmly convinced that such great undertakings are beyond the power of man to accomplish. The principal cause of the present degradation of Persia is that the royal line belongs to the powerful, uncivilised Turkish stock, whereas the subjects are the descendants of the highly civilised ancient Persians, who were Aryans. In this way the Empire of Constantinople — the last political arena of the Greeks and Romans, the descendants of civilised Aryans — has been ruined under the blasting feet of powerful, barbarous Turkey. The Mogul Emperors ‡ of India were the only exceptions to this rule; perhaps that was due to an admixture of Hindu ideas and Hindu blood. In the chronicles of Rajput bards and minstrels all the Mohammedan dynasties who conquered India are styled as Turks. This is a very correct appellation, for, or whatever races 14/41 the conquering Mohammedan armies might be made up, the leadership was always vested in the Turks alone. 655 660 665 670 675 680 685 690 695 700 What is called the Mohammedan invasion, conquest, or colonisation of India means only this that, under the leadership of Mohammedan Turks who were renegades from Buddhism, those sections of the Hindu race who continued in the faith of their ancestors were repeatedly conquered by the other section of that very race who also were renegades from Buddhism or the Vedic religion and served under the Turks, having been forcibly converted to Mohammedanism by their superior strength. Of course, the language of the Turks has, like their physiognomy, been considerably mixed up; specially those sections that have gone farthest from their native place Chagwoi have got the most hybrid form of language. This year the Shah of Persia visited the Paris Exhibition and returned to his country by rail via Constantinople. Despite the immense difference in time and place, the Sultan and the Shah talked with each other in their ancient Turkish mother tongue. But the Sultan's Turkish was mixed up with Persian, Arabic, and a few Greek words, while that of the Shah was comparatively pure. In ancient times these Chagwoi Turks were divided into two sections; one was called the "white sheep", and the other, "black sheep". But these sections started from their birthplace on the north of Kashmir, tending their flocks of sheep and ravaging countries, till they reached the shore of the Caspian Sea. The "white sheep" penetrated into Europe along the north of the Caspian Sea and founded the Kingdom of Hungary, seizing a fragment of the Roman Empire then almost in ruins, while the "black sheep", advancing along the south of the Caspian Sea, gradually occupied the western portion of Persia and, crossing the Caucasus, by degrees made themselves masters of Arabian territory such as Asia Minor and so forth; gradually they seized the throne of the Caliph, and bit by bit annexed the small remnant of the western Roman Empire. In very remote ages these Turks were great snake-worshippers. Most probably it was these dynasties whom the ancient Hindus used to designate as Nagas and Takshakas. Later on they became Buddhists; and afterwards they very often used to embrace the religion of any particular country they might conquer at any particular time. In comparatively recent times, of the two sections we are speaking about, the "white sheep" conquered the Christians and became converts to Christianity, while the "black sheep" conquered the Mohammedans and adopted their religion. But in their Christianity or Mohammedanism one may even now trace on research the strata of serpent-worship and of Buddhism. The Hungarians, though Turks by race and language, are Christians — Roman Catholics — in religion. In the past, religious fanaticism had no respect for any tie — neither the tie of language, nor that of blood, nor that of country. The Hungarians are ever the deadly enemies of Turkey; and but for the Hungarians' aid Christian states, such as Austria etc., would not have been able to maintain their existence on many an occasion. In modern times, owing to the spread of education and the discovery of Linguistics and Ethnology, people are being more attracted to the kinship of language and blood, while religious solidarity is gradually slackening. So, among the educated Hungarians and Turks, there is growing up a feeling of racial unity. Though a part of the Austrian Empire, Hungary has repeatedly tried to cut off from her. The result of many revolutions and rebellions has been that Hungary is now only nominally a province of the Austrian Empire, but practically independent in all respects. The Austrian Emperor is styled "the Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary". Hungary manages all her internal affairs independently of Austria and in these the subjects have full power. The Austrian Emperor continues to be a titular leader here, but even this bit of relation, it appears, will not last long. Skill in war, magnanimity and other characteristic virtues of the Turkish race are sufficiently present in the Hungarian also. Besides, not being converted to Mohammedanism they do not consider such heavenly arts as music etc. as the devil's snare, and consequently the Hungarians are great adepts in music and are renowned for this all over Europe. Formerly I had the notion that people of cold climates did not take hot chillies, which was merely a bad habit of warm climate people. But the habit of taking chillies, which we observed to begin with Hungary and which reached its climax in Rumania and Bulgaria etc., appeared to me to beat even your South Indians. 15/41 [continued below from] ADDENDA22 705 710 715 720 725 730 735 740 745 750 The first view of Constantinople we had from the train. It is an ancient city, with big drains running across the walls, narrow and crooked lanes full of dirt, and wooden houses, etc., but in them there is a certain beauty owing to their novelty. At the station we had great trouble over our books. Mademoiselle Calvé and Jules Bois tried much, in French, to reason with the octroi officers, which gradually led to a quarrel between the parties. The head of the officers was a Turk, and his dinner was ready; so the quarrel ended without further complications. They returned all the books with the exception of two which they held back. They promised to send them to the hotel immediately, which they never did 23. We went round the town and bazar of Stamboul or Constantinople. Beyond the Pont or creek is the Pera or foreigners' quarters, hotels, etc., whence we got into a carriage, saw the town, and then took some rest. In the evening we went to visit Woods Pasha, and the next day started on an excursion along the Bosphorus in a boat. It was extremely cold and there was a strong wind. So I and Miss MacLeod got down at the first station. It was decided that we would cross over to Scutari and see Pére Hyacinthe. Not knowing the language we engaged a boat by signs merely, crossed over, and hired a carriage. On the way we saw the seat of a Sufi Fakir. These Fakirs cure people's diseases, which they do in the following manner. First they read a portion of their scriptures, moving their body backward and forward; then they begin to dance and gradually get a sort of inspiration, after which they heal the disease by treading on the patient's body. We had a long talk with Père Hyacinthe about the American Colleges, after which we went to an Arab shop where we met a Turkish student. Then we returned from Scutari. — We had found out a boat, but it failed to reach its exact destination. However, we took a tram from the place where we were landed and returned to our quarters at the hotel at Stamboul. The Museum at Stamboul is situated where the ancient harem of the Greek Emperors once stood. We saw some remarkable sarcophagi and other things, and had a charming view of the city from above Topkhana. I enjoyed taking fried chick peas here after such a long time, and had spiced rice and some other dishes, prepared in the Turkish fashion. After visiting the cemetery of Scutari we went to see the ancient walls. Within the walls was the prison — a dreadful place. Next we met Woods Pasha and started for the Bosphorus. We had our dinner with the French chargé d'affaires and met a Greek Pasha and an Albanian gentleman. The Police have prohibited Père Hyacinthe's lectures; so I too cannot lecture. We saw Mr. Devanmall and Chobeji — a Gujarâti Brahmin. There are a good many Indians here — Hindustanis, Mussalmans, etc. We had a talk on Turkish Philosophy and heard of Noor Bey, whose gradfather was a Frenchman. They say he is as handsome as a Kashmari. The women here have got no purdah system and are very free. Prostitution is chiefly a Mohammedan practice 24. We heard of Kurd Pasha and the massacre of Armenians. The Armenians have really no country of their own, and those countries which they inhabit have generally a preponderating Mohammedan population. A particular tract called Armenia is unknown. The present Sultan is constructing a Hamidian cavalry out of the Kurds who will be trained in the manner of the Cossacks and they will be exempted from conscription. The Sultan called the Armenian and Greek Patriarchs and proposed to them conscription as an alternative for payment of taxes. They might thus serve to protect their motherland. They replied that if they went as soldiers to fight and died by the side of the Mohammedans, there would be some confusion about the interment of Christian soldiers. The Sultan's rejoinder to this was that it might be remedied by providing for both Mohammedan and Christian priests in each regiment, who would conduct the funeral service together when in the exigencies of battle the dead bodies of Christian and Mohammedan soldiers would have to be buried in a heap all together, and there could possibly be no harm if the souls of men of one religion heard in addition the funeral services meant for those of the other religion . But the Christians did not agree — so they continue to pay taxes. The surest reason of their not acquiescing in the proposal was their fear 22 www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda/volume_7/translation_of_writings/addenda.htm 23 The prototype of today’s TSA and their clones in other countries, who steal with a badge of authority from those who travel with “passports”. 24 Copied and implemented by the CIA/DVD/MI6. 16/41 755 760 765 770 775 780 785 lest by living with the Mohammedans they might turn Mohammedan wholesale. The present Sultan of Stamboul is a very hard-working man and he personally supervises everything, including even the arrangement of amusements, such as theatrical performances etc., in the palace. His predecessor, Murad, was really a most unfit man, but the present Sultan is very intelligent. The amount of improvement he has made in the condition of the State in which he found it at his accession is simply wonderful. The Parliamentary system will not be successful in this country. At 10 in the morning we left Constantinople, passing a night and a day on the sea, which was perfectly placid. By degrees we reached the Golden Horn and the Sea of Marmora. In one of the islands of the Marmora we saw a monastery of the Greek religion. Formerly there was ample opportunity for religious education here, for it was situated between Asia on one side and Europe on the other. While out in the morning on a visit of the Mediterranean Archipelago we came across Professor Liper, whose acquaintance I had already made in the Pachiappa College at Madras. In one of the islands we came upon the ruins of a temple, which had probably been dedicated to Neptune, judging from its position on the sea-shore. In the evening we reached Athens, and after passing a whole night under quarantine we obtained permission for landing 25 in the morning. Port Peiraeus is a small town, but very beautiful, having a European air about it in all respects, except that one meets now and then with one or two Greeks dressed in gowns. From there we drove five miles to have a look at the ancient walls of Athens which used to connect the city with the port. Then we went through the town; the Acropolis, the hotels, houses, and streets, and all were very neat and clean. The palace is a small one. The same day, again, we climbed the hillock and had a view of the Acropolis, the temple of the Wingless Victory, and the Parthenon, etc. The temple is made of white marble. Some standing remains of columns also we saw. The next day we again went to see these with Mademoiselle Melcarvi, who explained to us various historical facts relating thereto. On the second day we visited the temple of Olympian Zeus, Theatre Dionysius etc., as far as the sea-shore. The third day we set out for Eleusis, which was the chief religious seat of the Greeks. Here it was that the famous Eleusinian Mysteries used to be played. The ancient theatre of this place has been built anew by a rich Greek. The Olympian games too have been revived in the present times 26. They are held at a place near Sparta, the Americans carrying off the palm in them in many respects. … The ‘super power’ of a hundred years ago may have been carved up by extortion friendly legal infants at the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, but the worst features of the tribal religion are now the Qanun Statutes of legislatures, Passports, fictitious ‘money’, the resultant fraudulent contracts, the karmic fruits of such, for example, the sterile western male’s sperm manifest as ‘warship’ floating in the black sea, nuclear weapons, Fukushima, clergy who rape little children, ritual abuse, ‘jungle warfare’, etc. The worship of the golden calf27, ḥēṭ’ ha‘ēggel (‫ג( ל‬ ‫ע ֶג ג‬ ‫ה ֵע‬ ‫ט א ה‬ ‫ח ְט‬ ‫ ) ֵע‬can be seen as the defining feature of not just today’s Jews, but of an entire world civilisation, led by Europe (and America) which threw away the grace of Jesus Christ in 187028. 790 YHVH, Ground of Being, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His Creation, manifest Himself repeatedly for our sake; Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa, Swami Vivekananda, Sri Ramana Maharishi, Paul Brunton, etc., but the west chose to become ‘scientific’ barbarians who make sharks look like they have table manners. Sharks queue up to eat when there is plenty and let the female sharks eat first. BBC has the evidence, which has been shown on T.V. 795 Yet there is ‘justice’ before Him, the ‘causal’ realm is invisible to modern scientific apparatus and the barbarians who operate it. The reality of invisible forces is often studied by science, but have they exhausted it? ‘Dark matter’ is not just something found in a Paris or London ‘wet room’. In the early years criticism was sometimes encountered. Western devotees in particular were subject to missionary onslaughts. One enthusiast even entered the hall and launched his rhetoric 25 The ‘national security’ State of today built on the Ottoman model, itself derived from tribal Qanun law as discussed in our prior letters. 26 Like film and music, sport has become a medium for ‘intelligence agencies’ to manipulate nations. 27 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_calf 28 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_question 17/41 800 805 at Sri Bhagavan [“Our Father which are in heaven, hallowed be thy name”] himself. Sri Bhagavan did not reply, but Major Chadwick’s voice booming out a challenge from the back of the hall to the speaker’s interpretation of Christianity, so disconcerted him that he gave up the attempt. Even in later years Catholic priests continued to come, to show interest and reverence and then to throw out some doubt in a way that made one wonder whether their hearts were open or whether their purpose was not merely proselytism and misrepresentation. Look at the state of the College of Cardinals today! This Court of Record of Jesus Christ, the Almighty One, is investigating the Prefect for the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller and his inability to do more that scapegoat one priest, Archbishop Jozef Wesolowski 29. Perhaps the said Prefect needs to be encouraged with a, “Wassup dude?”. 810 “Red hats are two a penny made in China”. Ask Pope Francis! Pope Francis & Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II cc: His Majesty King Philippe of Belgium Open Letter Amicus curiæ 30 June 2014 03:05 GMT May it please our Virgin Mary with Her Child Jesus, This Court of Record is investigating allegations made by a so-called “International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State”30 run by a “Rev. Kevin Daniel Annett, M.A. , M.Div.”, sporting the seal/logo of the “International Common Law Court of Justice (ICLCJ)”31, exhibited on the right. “The International Common Law Court of Justice (ICLCJ) – Founded as a lawful Citizens’ Tribunal of Conscience on September 15, 2012 in Brussels.” “The International Common Law Court of Justice (ICLCJ) was established as the legal and judicial arm of the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and state (ITCCS), with the help of legal experts, judges and survivors of church terror and imperial genocide in more than a dozen countries”. Their seal, the “laurel wreath” of Caesar, signals possible Masonic connections. We are known to be investigating all Masonic Lodges and the Cult of Power. Rev. Kevin Daniel Annett, M.A. , M.Div. has tried ‘exorcisms’ on the Vatican: Led public protests and exorcisms at the Vatican, 2009, 2010; ITCCS endorsed by Radical Party and other politicians, Rome. From ‘official’ biography of Rev. Kevin Daniel Annett, M.A. , M.Div.32 Brussels has no tradition of Common Law. Rev. Kevin Daniel Annett, M.A. , M.Div., engaged in ‘exorcisms’ may be engaged in ‘spiritual war’ under the guise of Caesar’s ‘justice’. The European Union is a corrupt entity run out of Brussels. The European Union and cohorts have been attempting to start World War III. There are desperate men in Brussels, including but not limited to Jose Manuel Barroso, the President of the European Commission, an alleged child rapist 33. 29 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/vaticancityandholysee/10931277/Catholicarchbishop-defrocked-by-Vatican-for-sexually-abusing-teenage-boys.html 30 itccs.org/what-is-itccs/ 31 itccs.org/what-is-the-international-common-law-court-of-justice/ 32 itccs.org/2013/01/01/biography-rev-kevin-daniel-annett-m-a-m-div/ 33 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/US/US-Israel-cover/ 18/41 They have supposedly sent Caesar’s ‘court’ documents of “summons”, which is ‘Common Law’ court language for an invitation and no one has ‘appeared’. Why would they? ‘Caesar’ is the problem, not the solution. ‘Sovereignty’, Caesar style, is about guns and gold. Whose stolen guns do they use? As the Vatican prepares today for the imminent removal of Jorge Bergoglio, “Pope Francis”, from his office, two Direct Action Units (DAU’s) of trained security personnel have been dispatched by the Court to Rome and London. Their purpose will be to assist in the apprehending of known child killers associated with the Ninth Circle sacrificial cult, including Bergoglio himself. Special “take down” units move into action on verge of Pope’s resignation, June 29, 201434 We are investigating the so-called ‘White Dragon Society’, which speaks through one “Ben Fulford”, whose recent report of 3 June 2014, “Pope Francis pushes for one world religion as Western elite hits the panic button”35, signals the reaction of the ‘elite’ which, we believe, is connected with the above knee jerk reaction, which is, in turn, connected with the process in this Court of Record regarding the dissolution of the United States36 and the Federal Reserve and a settlement of God’s Law, God is One, which is Holy Peace, YHVH, Ground of Being, Brahman. Arrest Warrant We suggest that the military tribunal under Lord High Admiral Prince Philip use all necessary force required to arrest the so-called “Direct Action Units” in London along with the alleged child sacrifice participants, if any, whoever they may be and save the children, if any. This arrangement is to be duplicated in Rome. Those who operate a so-called “Common Law” court in Brussels are to be arrested as well, to appear before this contemplative Court of Record of YHVH, Ground of Being, our LORD Jesus Christ. We suggest that Jose Manuel Barroso, the President of the European Commission, an alleged child rapist, is arrested. It is possible of course that the action by the so-called “Direct Action Units” is propaganda in this spiritual war that we have sought to end by the grace of God, that He may reveal Holy Peace, the living waters of the non-dual One for those who have so qualified themselves to receive it. Our urgent action at this hour is out of an abundance of caution, attending to the sign of the times, that the gentle Mother of God intervene to bring about a revelation of One. We suggest that all Allies for the Rule of God’s Law, provide generous assistance to bring about a peaceful outcome. The arrested parties can bring their charges against each other to be adjudicated by due process in this Court of Record of YHVH, Ground of Being, Jesus Christ, the Almighty One. A sealed Writ of Mandamus regarding the appointment of a Queen’s Bench Magistrate has already been hand delivered to the Royal Courts of Justice. We send our love to YHVH, Ground of Being, our LORD Jesus Christ, that Holy Spirit guide the manifestation of Justice and Holy Peace. Yours faithfully, … Our Father, YHVH, Our LORD, Jesus Christ, is continually ‘speaking’ to us all. With this Court of Record in motion under His will, the cockroaches in the Beast of Babylon are crawling out, as the sun of 34 itccs.org/2014/06/29/important-notice-from-itccs-central-and-the-common-law-court-direct-action-teamsmove-into-action-on-verge-of-popes-resignation/ 35 benjaminfulford.net/2014/06/03/pope-francis-pushes-for-one-world-religion-as-western-elite-hits-the-panicbutton/ 36 www.courtofrecord.org/US 19/41 815 His gaze, shines into, and dries up the sewers of Hades, the density of ‘earth’ in the middle being no bar. The desire to protect innocent life and uphold righteousness is indeed universal, even madmen can be possessed of this desire. Desire, even of madmen, leads to action, action reveals that which must be revealed to the light of His gaze. 5th June, 1935 820 Talk 51. A young Brahmin (25 years of age) came on a visit to the Master. At his sight he became hysterical and shouted Sivoham, Aham Brahma Asmi, “You are God”, “You are Para Brahmam”. “You are my father”, “Father, save me” and so on. His hysterics waxing, he beat his chest violently alternately with both his hands, shouting Sivoham, Sivoham. 825 Then again he shouted hysterically gnashing his teeth, “I will stamp out materialism”, as if he was crushing materialism between his teeth. Then he asked. “Either give me power, either give me power - or – or - or - I will...” He began as if to throttle himself. 830 835 When gently removed by others he fell prostrate before Sri Bhagavan, saying, “I will take refuge at the feet of my Father. Father! You are Parthasarathi [Krishna], I am Arjuna. We will stamp out materialism,” and so on. He was finally taken away from the presence of Maharshi. He washed himself, took some light refreshment and quietly seated himself in the hall for some hours. He abstained from the midday meal. In the afternoon he had another fit when he shouted, “I will chop off the head of Krishna, if he should come here now. He advised me to give up my job, but does not protect my mother. Or let him chop off my head,” and so on. After some hours of quiet, Sri Bhagavan asked Mr. K. L. Sarma to read out a portion of his commentary on Anubandha (Appendix to 40 verses). 840 845 850 The gist of it is that people, unable to help themselves 37, ask for divine powers 38 to be utilised for human welfare. This is similar to the story of a lame man who blustered, saying that he would overpower the enemy if only he were helped on to his legs. The intention is good but there is no sense of proportion. The young man on hearing it suddenly sprang to his feet, saluting Sri Bhagavan and saying “Father! Father! I was mistaken. Pardon me. Teach me. I shall abide by what you say,” and so on. Then again in the evening he prostrated himself, saying, “I surrender 39.” “Surrender” to the LORD or qualified revealer of God’s oneness is not like unto a surrender to a Caesar. Caesar’s mercy can only prevent a worse fate, for example, of being hanged or sent in as a gladiator into the Roman Circus. True surrender to Christ, the Anointed One, Our Father, Ground of Being attracts grace when the consequences of surrender are accepted. The grace is certain, it results in liberation/salvation, Holy Peace, the torment being set aside for those who truly surrender. Devotee: We surrender; but still there is no help. Sri Ramana Maharishi: Yes. If you have surrendered, you must be able to abide by the will of God and not make a grievance of what may not please you. Things may turn out differently from what they look apparently . 37 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_helps_those_who_help_themselves “help themselves” must be understood in the context of know thy Self, “Atman is Four”, the river that went out of Eden, “One”. Genesis 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. 38 It is like the self-righteous exorcist, who knows not God within, who ‘falls back’ on his certain powers of hitting someone with a stick, or those who profess to be ‘priests’ who use another kind of stick to ‘show their power’. 39 This is the only condition by which Grace of “YHVH, Ground of Being, Our Father of fathomless Mercy” may be received. 20/41 855 Distress often leads men to faith in God. Devotee: But we are worldly. There is the wife, there are the children, friends and relatives. We cannot ignore their existence and resign ourselves to Divine Will, without retaining some little of the personality in us. 860 865 870 Sri Ramana Maharishi: That means you have not surrendered as professed by you. You must only trust God [YHVH, Brahman, Ground of Being, ‘Christ’ or ‘Krishna’, the Anointed One]. The ‘Anointed One’ is not just some one-time historical figure, the Anointed One is, and cannot ‘go’ any ‘where’. Sri Ramana Maharishi, when He ‘passed away’, remarked, “where could I go?, I-am here! ”, leaving the key of knowledge, LOVE, that unlocks the Torah. Genesis is an exposition of ‘where’, the ‘I’ appears. It is the same with ‘Jesus Christ’. Ignorance of God’s Law, ‘God is One’, Ground of Being, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation, Allah Ar-Raḥmān, the LORD of Atlantis, is no excuse, particularly for ‘Children taught of the LORD’. We return in this contemplation to the visit of Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz to Sri Ramana Maharishi, which is suitable for inclusion in full for the pace of questions, the scope and answers is breath taking when one contemplates the Law of YHVH, Brahman, Ground of Being, recorded in the Torah regarding the worship of the golden calf40, ḥēṭ’ ha‘ēggel (‫ג( ל‬ ‫ע ֶג ג‬ ‫ה ֵע‬ ‫ט א ה‬ ‫ח ְט‬ ‫ ) ֵע‬and how the ‘Gospel of Jesus Christ’ was once again thrown away by Europeans (World War II). 24th January, 1935 Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz, an English research scholar of Oxford University, brought a letter of introduction from Mr. Brunton and arrived on a visit. 875 He was tired after his journey and required rest. He is quite accustomed to Indian ways of living, having visited this country several times. He has learned the Tibetan language and helped in the translation of the “Book of the Dead” and the “Life of Milarepa”, the greatest of Tibetan Yogis, and a third book on the “Tibetan Secret Doctrines.” … Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Is not brahmacharya (celibacy) necessary for realisation of the Self? 880 Sri Ramana Maharishi : Brahmacharya is ‘living in Brahman’. It has no connection with celibacy as commonly understood. A real brahmachari, that is one who lives in Brahman [YHVH, Ground of Being], finds bliss in the Brahman which is the same as the Self. Why then should you look for other sources of happiness? In fact the emergence from the Self has been the cause of all the misery. 885 Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Celibacy is a sine qua non for Yoga? Sri Ramana Maharishi : So it is. Celibacy is certainly an aid to realisation among so many other aids. Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Is it then not indispensable? Can a married man realise the Self? 890 Sri Ramana Maharishi : Certainly, it is a matter of fitness of mind. Married or unmarried, a man can realise the Self, because that is here and now. If it were not so, but attainable by some efforts at some other time, and if it were new and something to be acquired, it would not be worthy of pursuit. Because what is not natural cannot be permanent either. But what I say is that the Self is here and now and alone. 895 Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : God being immanent in all, one should not take life of any kind. Is society right in taking the life of a murderer? Can the State do so either? The Christian countries begin to think that it is wrong to do so. Sri Ramana Maharishi : What is it that prompted the murderer to commit the crime? The same power awards him the punishment. Society or the State is only a tool in the hands of the power 41 . You speak of one life taken away; But what about innumerable lives lost in wars 42? 40 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_calf 41 There is no cognitive dissonance when an arrest warrant is issued by one who knows God. The difference is when Caesar issues an arrest warrant, there is no hope of Mercy. Hope is seen in one in whom God is [awake]. 21/41 900 Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Quite so. Loss of lives is wrong anyway. Are wars justified? 905 Sri Ramana Maharishi : For a realised man, the one who remains ever in the Self, the loss of one or several or all lives either in this world or in all the three worlds makes no difference. Even if he happens to destroy them all, no sin can touch such a pure soul. Maharshi quoted the Gita, Chapter 18, Verse 17 - “He who is free from the notion of ego, whose intellect is unattached, though he annihilates all the worlds, he slayeth not, nor is he bound by the results of his actions.” Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Do not one’s actions affect the person in after-births? Sri Ramana Maharishi : Are you born now? Why do you think of other births? The fact is that there is neither birth nor death. Let him who is born think of death and palliatives therefore. 910 915 It may strain the faculties of a ‘hidebound’ modern monkey, but here you have a discussion, just before World War II, in front of a man who lived among us as YHVH, Ground of Being, regarding impending war, a war about gold, about God’s law, about a bunch of money lenders who before long sold their brothers into the Shoah, the holocaust. We have seen testimony about how European money lenders behaved during World War II, a subject that the Grand Rabbi of France, we believe, must investigate and publish the details of. Do they also need to be paraded naked on T.V.? Exodus 32:21 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them? 32:22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief. 920 32:23 For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him. 32:24 And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf. 32:25 And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame43 among their enemies:) 925 32:26 Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him. 32:27 And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour. 930 935 The Grand Rabbi may have no difficulty in seeing Moses’ law at work in Europe during World War I and World War II although no one seemed to be present ‘giving the orders’. We have shown in our Amicus curiæ to His Majesty Harald V of Norway44, and in our Amicus curiæ regarding the dissolution of the United States 45 and the Federal Reserve, how the LORD has demonstrated in the history of the hundred years past, the truth of Exodus 20:1-6 and Exodus 1:8-12, which is here worth repeating: The wars of the past century have also proved that Europeans had forgotten about the nature of God, Our Father, the blessed Almighty One who has Mercy with His world, described so accurately by Moses. In short they were Christian and Jews only by external appearances for the Christians and the Jews of Europe took after other Gods. 940 Exodus 20:1 And God spake all these words, saying, 20:2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of 42 Matthew 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. 43 Even as is already manifest, for example in England, with so many terrifying abuse stories coming out. 44 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/Norway 45 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/US 22/41 the house of bondage. 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 945 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 950 20:6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. The Second Book of Moses: Called Exodus 20:1-6 955 Let us then look not for human personalities to blame but let us consider the Books of Moses in the Torah, where we are warned about the nature of God, Our Father, regarding those who forget and worship other gods, idols made up of words, for example, a ‘republic’ or a ‘bank’ or a ‘currency’ or even ‘gold’. Exodus 1:8 Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. 1:9 And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: 960 1:10 Come on, let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out of the land. 1:11 Therefore they did set over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses. 1:12 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. 965 970 The Second Book of Moses: Called Exodus 1:8-12 The French led the way in the spirit of Exodus 1:10, with the Treaty of Versailles 46. The Zionist Jews whom they supported with nuclear secrets, have spread the spirit of the treaty on a world wide scale. The State of Israel and those who covertly support it, features the Mossad which does ‘war by deception’, which ‘back-doored’ the ‘United States’, through which they have persecuted the Palestinians, the Middle East and the Africans. The more they afflicted them, the more the populations of the ‘third world’ countries, the innocent people of God, have grown. Let us not look for human personalities to blame for all human personalities are made manifest by the Almighty One, the LORD. 975 980 The Grand Rabbi may have no difficulty in seeing that circumcision47 has lost its meaning in Jewish society, ‘Jewish’ ‘men’ indulge themselves in sex48, they know not YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy and many49 of the elders of the tribe are no better, they blackmail each other with world war, experiment on children, they have believed themselves as ‘above’, or ‘chosen’ and thus separate from others (thus failing the implicit test of Moses in Genesis), they have fought a war within the nuclear reactor at Fukushima and worship the Golden Calf. … a few years before humans also lost their sight of Sri Bhagavan on earth, the day of the 46 See the Economic Consequences of the Peace by Lord Maynard Keynes www.courtofrecord.org/archive/keynes/The_Economic_Consequences_of_the_Peace/ 47 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/Putin/#__RefHeading__12197_1115109229 48 www.timesofisrael.com/thousands-celebrate-gay-pride-in-tel-aviv/ 49 At least one Jewish man, His Excellency Shimon Peres, whatever be his past, has boldly stood as the Warrior Patriarch of All Jews by planting an olive tree in the Vatican gardens, and prayed for Holy Peace, an Act of Faith in YHVH. We pray that YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy dissolve His Excellency’s past in the living waters of His grace. 23/41 monkeys was finished. The palm-leaf roofs outside the hall were extended, making access more difficult for them, and anyway most of them were taken back to the jungle or captured by the municipality and sent to America to be experimented on. 985 Look at ‘Americans’ today, they experiment on their children, they ritually abuse them, they destroy the next generation … we have covered this in our prior letters 50 and how Israel51 experimented on Palestinian children: “thee and thy enemy are the One that I AM”. We pray that YHVH, Ground of Being, grant thee, dear reader, eyes to see in the imageless causal realm. ‘Magical powers’ or ‘wealth’ are worthless before YHVH, Ground of Being 990 God, Brahman, YHVH, One who is, in whom we live move and have our being, is the perfection of LOVE, by whose presence, our Soul becomes the space-time sequence we call ‘life’. Living in ignorance of YHVH is ‘hell’, the illusion of separate existence; sometimes pleasant, sometimes unpleasant; the pleasant parts just prolonging the separation with the ‘beloved’. ‘Awakening’ from the hell of separate existence, is like awakening from a nightmare, what achieves this is good. 995 Without knowing YHVH, it is easy to set in train a snowball of karma that brings us unpleasant experience. The west, infatuated with ‘free will’, has brought on itself the karmic consequences of spiritual blindness. Foolishly setting up egoistic ‘free will’ above love 52, they know not love or will and confuse ‘love’ with sex, like monkeys. To say which is an insult to monkeys. Mr. Evans-Wentz asked: There are yogis with occult powers. What does Maharshi think of them? 1000 Sri Ramana Maharishi : The powers are known by hearsay or by exhibition. Thus they are in the realm of the mind only. Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Mr. Brunton mentions a yogi in Madras who is said to hold communion with his master in the Himalayas. 1005 Sri Ramana Maharishi : It is not more marvellous than telepathy - so commonly known. Telepathy cannot exist without the hearer and television without the seer. What is the difference between hearing from far and from near? It is only the hearer who matters. Without the hearer there cannot be hearing; without the seer there cannot be vision. Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : So you want me to consider the subject and not the object. 1010 Sri Ramana Maharishi : The subject and object appear only after the mind has arisen. The mind comprises them and also the occult powers. Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Jesus Christ cured people of their diseases. Is that only an occult power (siddhi)? 1015 Sri Ramana Maharishi : Was Jesus aware at the time that he was curing men of their diseases? He could not have been conscious of his powers. There is a story related as follows: Jesus had once cured a man of his blindness. The man turned wicked, in course of time. Meeting him after some years, Jesus observed his wickedness and asked him why he was so. He replied saying that, when he was blind, he could not commit any sin. But after Jesus had cured him of blindness he grew wicked and Jesus was responsible for his wickedness. Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Was not Jesus a Perfected Being possessing occult powers (siddhi)? 1020 Sri Ramana Maharishi : He could not have been aware of his powers (siddhis). 50 See: www.courtofrecord.org.uk/US/US-Biden-cover www.courtofrecord.org.uk/archive/greenbaum 51 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/Israel 52 See the Masonic cult known as the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO) and the Ecclesiæ Gnosticæ Catholicæ. Priest: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.” The PEOPLE: Love is the law, love under will. www.courtofrecord.org.uk/US/US-Steinmeier-cover/#__RefHeading__20351_2015019009 et seq. 24/41 Mr. W. Y. Evans-Wentz : Is it not good to acquire them, such as telepathy, etc.? 1025 1030 1035 1040 Sri Ramana Maharishi : Telepathy or radio enables one to see and hear from afar. They are all the same, hearing and seeing. Whether one hears from near or far does not make any difference in hearing. The fundamental factor is the hearer, the subject. Without the hearer or the seer, there can be no hearing or seeing. The latter are the functions of the mind. The occult powers (siddhis) are therefore only in the mind. They are not natural to the Self. That which is not natural, but acquired, cannot be permanent, and is not worth striving for . They denote extended powers. A man is possessed of limited powers and is miserable; he wants to expand his powers so that he may be happy. But consider if it will be so; if with limited perceptions one is miserable, with extended perceptions the misery must increase proportionately 53 . Occult powers will not bring happiness to anyone, but will make him all the more miserable! Moreover what are these powers for? The would-be occultist (siddha) desires to display the siddhis so that others may appreciate him. He seeks appreciation, and if it is not forthcoming he will not be happy. There must be others to appreciate him. He may even find another possessor of higher powers. That will cause jealousy and breed unhappiness. The higher occultist (siddha) may meet a still higher siddha and so on until there will come one who will blow up 54 everything in a trice. Such is the highest adept (siddha) and He is God or the Self. Which is the real power? Is it to increase prosperity or bring about peace? That which results in peace 55 is the highest perfection (siddhi). The meaning is better understood in terms of the experience of another Englishman, F. H. Humphreys, the first westerner who sought out Sri Ramana Maharishi. Christ, YHVH, Our Father, is always with us. If prejudice prevents ye from recognising Him when He appears, He leaves behind His greeting card, written on the pages of history. 1045 1050 1055 The first Western devotee of Sri Bhagavan was already grounded in occultism when he came to India in 1911. He was only twenty-one and had come to take up a post in the Police service at Vellore. He engaged a tutor, one Narasimhayya, to teach him Telugu and in the very first lesson asked him whether he could procure a book in English on Hindu astrology. It was a strange request from a white sahib, but Narasimhayya assented and got him one from a library. The next day Humphreys asked an even more astonishing question, “Do you know any Mahatma [great soul] here?” Narasimhayya answered briefly that he did not. This did not save him from embarrassment for long, for the next day Humphreys said: “Did you tell me yesterday that you don’t know any Mahatma? Well, I saw your Guru this morning just before I woke from sleep. He sat by my side and said something which, however, I did not understand.” As Narasimhayya still seemed unconvinced, Humphreys continued, “The first man from Vellore whom I met at Bombay was you.” Narasimhayya began to protest that he had never been to Bombay, but Humphreys explained that as soon as he arrived there he had been taken to hospital in a high fever. In order to gain some relief from pain, he had directed his mind to Vellore, where he 53 We note that the internet is full of ‘ought to be’ analysis that says that you are spiritual beings and that some external earthly power is what has ‘denied’ you the right and that you ought to be spiritual balls of light “toing and fro-ing” around the “universe”. Where is the universe? Is an earthly power able to control God? Is the ‘galactic federation’ going to overpower Brahman, YHVH, Ground of Being, Power behind all manifestation in which galaxies with black holes whirling solar masses are scattered like motes on a sun beam? 54 Revelation 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. Genesis 32:34 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them. 55 Revelation 2:28 And I will give him the morning star. The ‘morning star’ is Venus, symbolic language for the perfection of Sat-Chit-Ananda, Truth-Intelligence-Bliss in one word ‘Beauty’ or ‘Peace’. See pattern ‘drawn’ by Venus, from Earth’s perspective, the ‘flower of life’. 25/41 1060 1065 1070 should have proceeded immediately on landing but for his illness. He travelled to Vellore in his astral body and saw Narasimhayya there. Narasimhayya replied simply that he did not know what an astral body was, or any body but a physical one. However, in order to test the truth of the dream he next day left a bundle of photographs on Humphreys’ table before going to give a lesson to another police officer. Humphreys looked through them and immediately picked out that of Ganapati Sastri. “There!” he exclaimed when his teacher returned. “That is your Guru.” Narasimhayya admitted that it was. After this Humphreys again fell sick and had to leave for Ootacamund to recuperate. It was several months before he returned to Vellore. When he did, he again surprised Narasimhayya, this time by sketching a mountain cave he had seen in a dream, with a stream running in front of it and a Sage standing in the entrance. It could only be Virupaksha. Narasimhayya now told him about Sri Bhagavan. Humphreys was introduced to Ganapati Sastri and conceived great respect for him, and the same month, November 1911, all three of them set out on a visit to Tiruvannamalai. 1075 Humphreys’ first impression of the terrific silence of Sri Bhagavan has been quoted already in an earlier chapter56. In the same letter from which it is taken he also wrote: “The most touching sight was the number of tiny children, up to about seven years of age, who climb the hill all on their own to come and sit near the Maharshi, even though he may not speak a word nor even look at them for days together. They do not play but just sit there quietly, in perfect contentment.” Like Ganapati Sastri, Humphreys was eager to help the world. 1080 H: Master, can I help the world? B: Help yourself 57 and you will help the world. H: I wish to help the world. Shall I not be helpful? B: Yes, helping yourself you help the world. You are in the world, you are the world. You are not different from the world, nor is the world different from you. 1085 H: (after a pause) Master, can I perform miracles as Sri Krishna and Jesus did before? B: Did any of them, when he performed them, feel that it was he who was performing a miracle? H: No, Master. It was not long before Humphreys repeated his visit. “I went by motorcycle and climbed up to the cave. 1090 The Sage smiled when he saw me but was not in the least surprised. We went in and before we sat down he asked me a question private to myself, of which he knew. Evidently he recognised me the moment he had seen me. Everyone who comes to him is an open book, and a single glance suffices 56 “On reaching the cave we sat before him at his feet and said nothing. We sat thus for a long time and I felt lifted out of myself. For half an hour I looked into the Maharshi’s eyes, which never changed their expression of deep contemplation. I began to realize somewhat that the body is the Temple of the Holy Ghost; I could feel only that his body was not the man: it was the instrument of God, merely a sitting, motionless corpse from which God was radiating terrifically. My own feelings were indescribable.” 57 Genesis 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. ‘Help yourself’ to the ‘unlimited’ waters of life. How can ye who are thirsty and have no water, help quench another’s thirst? In the Mahabharatha epic, Bhishma lay on the battle-‘field’ of life, bleeding on a bed of arrows. He had a boon to ‘die at his choosing’ and was thirsty. He asked for the waters of the Ganges, which was brought to him, but this did not quench his thirst. Arjuna, the warrior who felled him in a hail of arrows and prepared the bed of arrows on which he fell, knew what to do. He aimed his arrow ‘into the ground’, shot it, and a lo, sprang forth a fountain of water into the mouth of Bhishma and quenched his thirst. He passed away in Holy Peace. In that story, the Hero, Arjuna shoots his ‘arrow’, symbolic speech for ‘concentration/contemplation’ into the Ground of Being, YHVH, to evoke the waters of life. Bhishma is a character, whose life is symbolic speech for ‘[western] Man’, lying with pierced body, bleeding in a ‘thousand’ places. 26/41 to reveal to him its contents. ‘You have not yet had any food,’ he said, ‘and are hungry.’ 1095 1100 1105 1110 1115 1120 1125 1130 “I admitted that it was so and he immediately called in a chela (disciple) to bring me food — rice, ghee, fruit, etc., eaten with the fingers, as Indians do not use spoons. Though I have practised eating this way I lack dexterity. So he gave me a coconut spoon to eat with, smiling and talking between whiles. You can imagine nothing more beautiful than his smile. I had coconut milk to drink, whitish, like cow’s milk, and delicious, to which he had himself added a few grains of sugar. “When I had finished I was still hungry and he knew it and ordered more. He knows everything, and when others pressed me to eat fruit when I had had enough he stopped them at once. “I had to apologise for my way of drinking. He only said, ‘Never mind’. The Hindus are particular about this. They never sip nor touch the vessel with their lips but pour the liquid straight in. Thus many can drink from the same cup without fear of infection. “Whilst I was eating he was relating my past history to others, and accurately too. Yet he had seen me but once before and many hundreds in between. He simply turned on, as it were, clairvoyance, even as we would refer to an encyclopaedia. I sat for about three hours listening to his teaching. “Later on I was thirsty, for it had been a hot ride, but I would not have shown it for worlds. Yet he knew and told a chela to bring me some lemonade. “At last I had to go, so bowed, as we do, and went outside the cave to put on my boots. He came outside too and said I might come to see him again. “It is strange what a change it makes in one to have been in his Presence!” 1135 1140 There is no doubt that anyone who sat before Sri Bhagavan was an open book to him; nevertheless Humphreys was probably wrong about the clairvoyance. Although Sri Bhagavan saw through people in order to help and guide them, he did not use any such powers on the human plane. … … Bhagavan at his very first meeting as a “motionless corpse from which God is radiating terrifically 58 ,” so everyone, according to his capacity, is a broadcasting station of invisible influences. Insofar as anyone is in a state of harmony and free from egoism he is inevitably and involuntarily emitting harmony, whether he is outwardly active or not; and insofar as his own nature is turbulent and his ego strong he is emitting disharmony even though he may 58 Sensitive souls may pick up on this ‘radiation’ by contemplation of Sri Ramana Maharishi’s photograph. 27/41 outwardly be performing service. 1145 Although Humphreys never stayed with Sri Bhagavan and only visited him a few times, he imbibed his teaching and received his Grace. A synopsis that he sent to a friend in English was published later in the International Psychic Gazette and remains an excellent presentation of the teaching. “A Master is one who has meditated solely on God, has flung his whole personality into the sea of God, and drowned and forgotten it there, till he becomes only the instrument of God, and when his mouth opens it speaks God’s words without effort or forethought; and when he raises a hand, God flows again through that, to work a miracle. 1150 “Do not think too much of psychical phenomena and such things. Their number is legion; and once faith in the psychical thing is established in the heart of a seeker, such phenomena have done their work. Clairvoyance, clairaudience, and such things are not worth having, when so much far greater illumination and peace are possible without them than with them. The Master takes on these powers as a form of self-sacrifice! 1155 “The idea that a Master is simply one who has attained power over the various occult senses by long practice and prayer or anything of the kind, is absolutely false. No Master ever cared a rap for occult powers, for he has no need for them in his daily life . “The phenomena we see are curious and surprising — but the most marvellous of all we do not realize, and that is that one, and only one illimitable force is responsible for: 1160 (a) All the phenomena we see; and (b) The act of seeing them. 1165 1170 “Do not fix your attention on all these changing things of life, death and phenomena. Do not think of even the actual act of seeing or perceiving them, but only of that which sees all these things — that which is responsible for it all. This will seem nearly impossible at first, but by degrees the result will be felt. It takes years of steady, daily practice, and that is how a Master is made. Give a quarter of an hour a day for this practice. Try to keep the mind unshakenly fixed on That which sees. It is inside yourself. Do not expect to find that ‘That’ is something definite on which the mind can be fixed easily; it will not be so. Though it takes years to find that ‘That’, the result of this concentration will be seen in four or five months’ time — in all sorts of unconscious clairvoyance, in peace of mind, in power to deal with troubles, in power all round, yet always unconscious power †. “I have given you this teaching in the same words as the Master gives to intimate chelas. From now onwards, let your whole thought in meditation be not on the act of seeing, nor on what you see, but immovably on That which Sees. 1175 “One gets no reward for Attainment. Then one understands that one does not want a reward. As Krishna says, ‘Ye have the right to work, but not to the fruits thereof.’ Perfect attainment is simply worship, and worship is attainment. 1180 1185 “If you sit down and realize that you think only by virtue of the one Life, and that the mind, animated by the one Life into the act of thinking, is a part of the whole which is God, then you argue your mind out of existence as a separate entity; and the result is that mind and body, physically (so to speak) disappear; and the only thing that remains is Be-ing, which is at once existence and non-existence and not explainable in words or ideas. “A Master cannot help being perpetually in this state with only this difference, that in some, to us incomprehensible, way he can use the mind, body and intellect too, without falling back into the delusion of having separate consciousness. “It is useless to speculate, useless to try and take a mental or intellectual grasp and work from that. That is only religion, a code for children and for social life, a guide to help us to avoid shocks, so that the inside fire may burn up the nonsense in us, and teach us, a little sooner, common sense, i.e. a knowledge of the delusion of separateness. 1190 “Religion, whether it be Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Theosophy, or any other kind of ‘ism’ or 28/41 ‘sophy’ or system, can only take us to the one point where all religions meet and no further. “That one point where all religions meet is the realization — in no mystical sense, but in the most worldly and everyday sense, and the more worldly and everyday and practical the better — of the fact that God is everything, and everything is God 59. 1195 1200 “From this point begins the work of the practice of this mental comprehension, and all it amounts to is the breaking of a habit. One has to cease calling things ‘things’, and must call them God; and instead of thinking them to be things, must know them to be God; instead of imagining ‘existence’ to be the only thing possible, one must realize that this (phenomenal) existence is only the creation of the mind, that ‘non-existence’ is a necessary sequence if you are going to postulate ‘existence’. “The knowledge of things only shows the existence of an organ to cognize. There are no sounds to the deaf, no sights for the blind, and the mind is merely an organ of conception or of appreciation of certain sides of God. 1205 “God is infinite, and therefore existence and non- existence are merely His counterparts. Not that I wish to say that God is made up of definite component parts. It is hard to be comprehensive when talking of God. True knowledge comes from within and not from without. And true knowledge is not ‘knowing’ but ‘seeing’. “Realization is nothing but seeing God literally. Our greatest mistake is that we think of God as acting symbolically and allegorically, instead of practically and literally. 1210 1215 1220 1225 “Take a piece of glass, paint colours and forms on it, and put the same into a magic lantern, turn on a little light, and the colours and the forms painted on the glass are reproduced on the screen. If that light were not turned on, you would not see the colours of the slide on the screen. “How are colours formed? By breaking up white light with a many-sided prism. So it is with a man’s character. It is seen when the Light of Life (God) is shining through it, i.e. in a man’s actions. If the man is sleeping or dead, you do not see his character. Only when the Light of Life is animating the character and causing it to act in a thousand different ways, in response to its contact with this many-sided world, can you perceive a man’s character. If white light had not been broken up and put into forms and shapes on our magic lantern slide, we should never have known that there was a piece of glass in front of the light, for the light would have shone clearly through. In a sense that white light was marred, and had some of its clearness taken from it by having to shine through the colours on the glass. “So it is with an ordinary man. His mind is like the screen. On it shines light, dulled and changed because he has allowed the many-sided world to stand in the way of the Light (God) and broken it up. He sees only the effects of the Light (God) instead of the Light (God) Himself, and his mind reflects the effects he sees just as the screen reflects the colours on the glass. Take away the prism and the colours vanish, absorbed back into the white light from whence they came. Take away the colours from the slide and the light shines clearly through. Take away from our sight the world of 59 … the Key of Knowledge that comes to you in this letter. [www.courtofrecord.org/Putin] “The Vedas declare that the ignorant man who rests content with making the slightest distinction between the individual soul and the Supreme Self [Our Father] is exposed to danger,” Shankara the great monist has written. “Where there is duality by virtue of ignorance, one sees all things as distinct from the Self. When everything is seen as the Self, then there is not even an atom other than the Self. . . . “As soon as the knowledge of the Reality has sprung up, there can be no fruits of past actions to be experienced, owing to the unreality of the body, in the same way as there can be no dream after waking.” Autobiography of a Yogi - by Paramahansa Yogananada That importance placed that no distinction be made between the individual Soul and Our Father, the blessed One who has mercy with His world is equivalent to the test used by the Holy See that there is not even one iota of difference between Jesus Christ and Our Father in Heaven, the wisdom of the Nicene creed that has safeguarded the Bishop of Rome for two millennia. We have also shown how the “body and blood of Christ”, the wafer and the wine at Christian Mass, is symbolic language that the world is the body of “Christ”, who is One with YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation. 29/41 effects we see, and let us look only into the cause, and we shall see the Light (God). 1230 1235 1240 1245 “A Master in meditation, though the eyes and ears be open, fixes his attention so firmly on ‘That which sees’ that he neither sees nor hears, nor has any physical consciousness at all — nor mental either, but only spiritual. “We must take away the world, which causes our doubts, which clouds our mind, and the light of God will shine clearly through. How is the world taken away? When, for example, instead of seeing a man you see and say, ‘This is God animating a body’, which body answers, more or less perfectly, to the directions of God, as a ship answers more or less perfectly to her helm. “What are sins? Why, for example, does a man drink too much? Because he hates the idea of being bound —bound by the incapacity to drink as much as he wishes . He is striving after liberty in every sin he commits. This striving after liberty is the first instinctive action of God in a man’s mind. For God knows that he is not bound. Drinking too much does not give a man liberty, but then the man does not know that he is really seeking liberty. When he realizes that, he sets about seeking the best way to obtain liberty. “But the man only gains that liberty when he realizes that he was never bound . The I, I, I’s who feel so bound are really the illimitable Spirit. I am bound because I know nothing that I do not sense by one of the senses. Whereas I am all the time that which senses in every body in every mind. These bodies and minds are only the tools of the ‘I’, the illimitable Spirit. “What do I want with the tools who am the tools themselves, as the colours are the White Light?” 1250 1255 Needless to say, police service did not prove congenial to Humphreys. Sri Bhagavan advised him to attend to his service and meditation at the same time. For some years he did so and then he retired. Being already a Catholic and having understood the essential unanimity of all the religions, he saw no need to change 60 but returned to England, where he entered a monastery. We pray to our LORD, YHVH, Ground of Being, Brahman, Jesus Christ, Allah Ar-Raḥmān, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation, that this letter brings thee Holy Peace and prepares thee for the task which is before us: to find True Men, who seek YHVH with all their heart and all their soul, who exorcise legal fiction, be it a ‘republic’ or ‘corporation’, contemplate “U.C.C. Mirror Reflection” and dedicate their lives to serve living men, women and children. Serve the living, not the dead In our Letter Rogatory to the British Cabinet/Parliament61, we have show that formal corporate law is the law of the dead, not the living, and how this legal fiction came about as a result of the Great London Plague of 1666. 1260 1265 Luke 9:60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead 62 bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. The Great London Plague of 1665/1666 devastated the population. It became a problem to know if a property was owned by a living man or woman or not. When someone dies intestate with no living successors, the property is escheat to the King or State. Parliament passed the Cestui Que Vie Act 1666 which declared everyone in the kingdom legally dead and lost beyond the seas. Those 60 This revelation of the essential unity of all religion is also seen by this witness to Swami Vivekananda: “A Jewish intellectual remarked to the present writer [i.e. of Swami Vivekananda’s biography], years later, that after hearing Vivekananda he realized for the first time that his own religion, Judaism, was true, and that the Swami had addressed his words on behalf of not only his religion, but all religions of the world. Whereas every one of the other delegates had spoken for his own ideal or his own sect, the Swami had spoken about God, who, as the ultimate goal of all faiths, is their inmost essence”. www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/vivekananda_biography/07_the_parliament.htm 61 http://www.courtofrecord.org.uk/British/#__RefHeading__1915_2023600957 62 One who is not awake to YHVH, Ground of Being, Christ, like a dead man walking. Compare ‘sleep walking’. Sri Ramana Maharishi: “In fact everyone is a “killer of the Self” (atmahan) every moment of his life”. ‘Self’ is ‘Christ’ (Christian language) or YHVH (Jewish language). 30/41 still living would get to claim their property by showing up alive! 1270 This ingenious mechanism, a variation on “render unto Caesar”, to determine if you are a living Man is in use today. With the creation of the United States of America, a ‘dead’ king, a legal fiction63, a name in business became a new legal framework – the corporate laws of the dead. Such a king, could not be ‘killed’ - he or rather ‘it’ was not alive. Opening the way for Tyranny forever. Amidst all this ‘serious’ discussion, there is nothing like some Jewish humour to illustrate the point we are making that we must serve the living, not the dead: 1275 1280 An elderly man lay dying in his bed. In death's agony, he suddenly smelled the aroma of his favourite rugalahs wafting up the stairs. He gathered his remaining strength, and lifted himself from the bed. Leaning against the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom, and with even greater effort forced himself down the stairs, gripping the railing with both hands, he crawled downstairs. With laboured breath, he leaned against the door-frame, gazing into the kitchen. Were it not for death's agony, he would have thought himself already in heaven; there, spread out upon waxed paper on the kitchen table were literally hundreds of his favourite rugulahs. Was it heaven? Or was it one final act of heroic love from his devoted wife, seeing to it that he left this world a happy man? Mustering one great final effort, he threw himself toward the table, landing on his knees in a rumpled posture. His parched lips parted; the wondrous taste of the rugalah was already in his mouth, seemingly bringing him back to life. 1285 The aged and withered hand trembled on its way to a rugalah at the edge of the table, when it was suddenly smacked with a spatula by his wife. "Don't touch," she said, "they're for the shiva [death ceremony of the living husband]." www.hebrew4christians.com/Humor/Set1/set1.html Origins of a ‘Justice System’: Moses delegated dispute resolution 1290 1295 By the grace of YHVH, Ground of Being, the dissolution of all legal fiction can be accomplished and Mercy and Justice be manifest by YHVH, Ground of Being, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation. The task may appear formidable, the Grace of God makes it possible to delegate it down to manageable size. Exodus 18:12 And Jethro, Moses' father in law, took a burnt offering and sacrifices for God: and Aaron came, and all the elders of Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father in law before God. 18:13 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening. 1300 18:14 And when Moses' father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even? 18:15 And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God: 18:16 When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws. 18:17 And Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good. 1305 18:18 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone. 18:19 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God: 1310 18:20 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do. 63 See mind map at www.courtofrecord.org.uk/USA 31/41 18:21 Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens: 1315 18:22 And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee. 18:23 If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace. 18:24 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said. 1320 The Second Book of Moses: Called Exodus, King James Bible Minute notes to version 0.93 as contemplation resumes 8 July 2014 1325 1330 1335 This contemplation has already impacted the history that YHVH is unfolding around us. The boxed letter of 30 June 2014 above in response to events regarding ITCCS has resulted, we believe, in freeing Pope Francis and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II from a rather dire circumstance, to wit, “existential greyness”64. Version v0.93 of this document with the preceding contemplation has been sent to Pope Francis and copied to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and copied to other leaders of faith. We trust that they have had the courage to contact the Grand Rabbi directly with a copy as this has been our express wish. Readers must note that the Law of God, YHVH is One, is the law of the living God. Contemplation of God as One directly impacts the manifest World-Idea and the resulting image, resulting in what-is-new, hence ‘news’. This is ‘unconscious power’, the result of worship, the grace of YHVH to choose Peace, as commented on above, by Sri Ramana Maharishi through F.H. Humphreys at the † mark. Qualified Priest vs Qualified Caesar 1340 To a ‘lay’ man or woman, Moses’ command to slay all those who worshipped gold in the ‘golden calf’ may appear to be ‘cruel’. It may appear to be the actions of a ‘cruel Caesar’. Appearances are deceptive, for the law of YHVH is always merciful, as we shall explain. Moses himself, we believe, was a fully qualified Egyptian priest, aware of the ‘mysteries’. The symbolic language of ancient priests who used images to convey reason-principles for contemplation of a symbol can be unpacked into words, commands and action, many millennia later. 1345 There is a difference between the words of a Priest and the words of a King. People easily recognize the authority of a King or Caesar. No one today would doubt when ‘President of the United States’ says ‘bomb them’ and that the consequence shall follow. They, the ‘military’, follow the orders without saying that this is the action of a ‘cruel Caesar’. Yet many are unwilling to follow the orders of a qualified Priest, even as they did in the time of Moses. “Can anyone get any benefit by repeating sacred syllables (mantras) picked up casually? 1350 Sri Ramana Maharishi : “No. He must be competent and initiated in such mantras.” Maharshi illustrated this by the following story: A King visited his Premier in his residence. There he was told that the Premier was engaged in repetition of sacred syllables (japa). The King waited for him and, on meeting him, asked what the japa was. The Premier said that it was the holiest of all, Gayatri. 1355 The King desired to be initiated by the Premier. But the Premier confessed his inability to initiate him. Therefore the King learned it from someone else, and meeting the Minister later he repeated the Gayatri and wanted to know if it was right. The Minister said that the mantra was correct, but it 64 www.news.va/en/news/pope-francis-serve-and-live-in-the-freedom-of-god 32/41 was not proper for him to say it. 1360 1365 When pressed for an explanation, the Minister called to a page close by and ordered him to take hold of the King. The order was not obeyed. The order was often repeated, and still not obeyed. The King flew into a rage and ordered the same man to hold the Minister, and it was immediately done. The Minister laughed and said that the incident was the explanation required by the King. “How?” asked the King. The Minister replied, “The order was the same and the executor also, but the authority was different. When I ordered, the effect was nil, whereas, when you ordered, there was immediate effect. Similarly with mantras.” Similarly there are many scholars who know the words and Hebrew grammar in the Holy Bible, but few Priests who can convey the intercession of YHVH, Ground of Being. 1370 To invoke the Mercy of YHVH, one must know Him, our Self, in whose presence the ‘light of the world’ is extinguished65, for the conscious observation of ‘dark’ as well as ‘light’ is only possible by the presence of the Self, YHVH, Ground of Being. Moses was guiding his people out of ‘civilisation’, in effect, starting another, the one we have today. He encoded his detailed and intimate knowledge of the subtle One, YHVH, Ground of Being, in Genesis. 1375 1380 Knowing the epistemological Truth, that there is no ‘matter’, only consciousness, he also knew that a materialistic tribe would perish, even as lunatics and idiots of today can easily perish, taking civilisation with them, by nuclear world war. The Arabian desert is not a place for a wandering tribe of lunatics or idiots. This earth is not a place where lunatics and idiots, who know not YHVH, Ground of Being from which flows Life and Love, can remain ‘in charge’66. Moses’ knowledge of God’s law allowed both ‘food’ as manna and ‘water’ to be provided for the tribe, he fed his sheep, even by means extraordinary. The tribe must remain qualified to receive such subtle aid. He records that many were “stiffnecked”, for example in Deuteronomy 9:6, that is, unqualified: they knew not how to bow their heads before the Power of YHVH. Moses records in Genesis 47, how Joseph fed the Hebrews when the Pharaoh was guided by a man of God. Jesus’ command to Peter, “feed my sheep”, is a terse summary of Moses’ teaching. 1385 Deuteronomy 10:17 For the LORD your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward: 10:18 He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. 10:19 Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. 1390 10:20 Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name. 10:21 He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen. 10:22 Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude. 1395 11:1 Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, 65 Genesis 20:21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was. Transcend the present plane of relativity. A separate being (Self) appears to know something apart from itself (non-Self). That is, the subject is aware of the object. The seer is drik; the seen is drisya. There must be a unity underlying these two, which arises as ‘ego’. This ego is of the nature of chit (intelligence); achit (insentient object) is only negation of chit. Therefore the underlying essence is akin to the subject and not the object. Seeking the drik, until all drisya disappears, the drik will become subtler and subtler until the absolute drik alone survives. This process is called drisya vilaya (the disappearance of the objective world). Sri Ramana Maharishi 66 See the Gospel According to Saint Luke, chapter 20. 33/41 and his commandments, alway. The Fifth Book of Moses Called Deuteronomy, King James Bible Here Moses reveals that YHVH ‘loves’ the stranger, for the LORD God, YHVH, is manifesting the stranger from within, the stranger is One itself in a special form. 1400 Every breath is food, the body of the stranger is the ‘raiment’ given by YHVH. There is only ONE being, appearing as the stranger or enemy. He therefore says, “Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt”. YHVH can withdraw the waters of life, prana, the life force, at any instant. Who are we egoistic ‘humans’ to judge Him who continues to sustain His creation? 1405 This is the epistemology of Mercy. Contemplation of YHVH in action as World-Mind 1410 1415 1420 We are strangers in the ‘land of Egypt’ today, with idols like the State, guns, sex and ‘money’ worshipped on the world-pedestal of mainstream media, an ‘Egypt’ built by moneylenders and cult worshippers of all things Egyptian, who know not the LORD of Egypt, the One, for they are like unto the uninitiated king, scavengers of Egypt’s graves. It is in France that this cult of all things Egypt began after Napoleon invaded Egypt. Yet, there is this slender thread of faith in Jesus Christ, who, like the stranger, is the Almighty One, YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation. It is this faith that allows the sleep walking civilisation out on the high wire over the valley of death to gently be reminded to walk backwards to safety before the winds of the valley of death are given a chance to blow by That, the Almighty One, whose law Moses, Jesus Christ and the Prophet Muhammad, Peace be upon them, revealed. It is easy for ‘humans’ to confuse their ‘will’ with that of God. If Bob says, “I will clean the stables”, it means nothing. If Bob follows through and cleans the stables, then the clean stables are a testament to God’s will that Bob cleaned the stables. This is the epistemological foundation for the LORD’s release, for a promise made, “I will repay”. These epistemological principles guide Moses in giving out the laws that guide those not blessed with conscious communion with YHVH, such as these examples below: Deuteronomy 15:1 At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release. 1425 15:2 And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD's release. The Fifth Book of Moses Called Deuteronomy, King James Bible Leviticus 23:4 If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. 1430 23:9 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. … 25:11 A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed. 25:12 For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field. 1435 25:13 In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession. … 25:35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee. 25:36 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee. 34/41 1440 25:37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase. … 25:43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God. The Third Book of Moses Called Leviticus, King James Bible 1445 Every moment of observation possible is made possible only by the conscious observer, sustained by YHVH, Ground of Being. ‘Unseen ice in Antarctica’, implicitly proposes a conscious mind to know it. Sending a robotic probe, merely extends the sense perception of the one who says “I can confirm that I can now see the ice”. 1450 A contract between two egos, that is, between two ‘humans’, is only viable as long as YHVH sustains the human’s life. We recall once again that it is in 1870, that European moneylenders and the world along with it, threw away rule by God’s law, for they were satisfied with the “life of thine hand”. Isaiah 57:9 And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst debase thyself even unto hell. 57:10 Thou art wearied in the greatness of thy way; yet saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast not grieved. 1455 57:11 And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not? 57:12 I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee. 1460 57:13 When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain; 57:14 And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people. 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. 1465 The Book of the Prophet Isaiah, King James Bible This then, is the first task that the LORD God has set us, “to revive the spirit of the humble”, to “declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee”. “Isaiah 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.” 1470 Fukushima, the gateway of horrors This contemplative Court of Record of YHVH is investigating the Fukushima tragedy, the role of the State of Israel and Israeli companies on behalf of French interests, the role of Alstom, quickly ‘sold’ to General Electric67 as news of our investigation percolates. 1475 We are investigating death threats against President Putin, the murder of Benoît Duquesne, whose video68, which we have archived69, exposed how French interests, notably “Bernard-Henri Lévy” are running ‘Fascist’ Ukraine to threaten Russia, using ‘Femen’ 70 to threaten the life of President Putin using ubuesque71 invective72. We suggest that Bernard-Henri Lévy is arrested, or the ‘French equivalent’, at 67 voiceofrussia.com/news/2014_06_22/Alstom-approves-General-Electrics-bid-to-acquire-its-energy-business6196/ 68 www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aanFI_tUUs 69 www.courtofrecord.org.uk/archive/bhl.mp4 70 http://www.vocativ.com/gallery/world/france-world/femen-1-putin-0/ 71 http://cnrtl.fr/definition/ubuesque 72 http://laregledujeu.org/bhl/2014/05/29/le-poutinisme-est-un-fascisme/ 35/41 1480 once on suspicion of murder of Benoît Duquesne and questioned to reveal the extent of the rot in France. Those who believe they can use the State of France to blackmail, kill and steal because of peculiar religious ideas are a danger to western civilisation and further the ‘cause’ of ‘Jungle warfare’. 1485 Every Frenchman sports a passport which is a prisoner’s identification card. An arrest is therefore just a formality. This became apparent to the Israelis when there was a ‘Foreign ministry strike’. The non-renewal of passports by the British Home Office 73 sends a variation on the message. Only legal idiots before YHVH can accept the situation with passports to tag every living man, woman and child. “Strong borders” make for strong prisons the size of a country. We are investigating the use of the Anti-Defamation League 74, Greenpeace75, PETA, American Civil Liberties Union76 and other ‘advocacy’ groups by those who purport to be holier than thou, for example, CRIF - Conseil Représentatif des Institutions Juives de France, while the real agenda is the opposite of what is proclaimed, with fascist lunatics managed ‘at arms length’. 1490 A tapped phone conversation between two Jews in Ukraine deals with a third Jew’s having masterminded the massacre of anti-Kiev demonstrators via incineration inside the Odessa Trade Unions Building on May 2nd in Odessa. [Note by Washington's Blog: Mr. Zuesse has written an entire book on the Holocaust, and is obviously not anti-Semitic. In addition, his account is largely confirmed by this piece in Forbes (scroll down to point number 5).] 1495 One official in this conversation, “Noginsky,” is a lobbyist for Ukrainian exports to Russia; the other, “Epshtein,” is Ian Epstein, the Israeli Consul in that region of Ukraine. The Jew who had masterminded the massacre is “Bennie,” the nickname for Ihor Kolomoiskyi, a Ukrainian gasmagnate, who was chosen by the Ukrainian Presidential contender and former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko (another gas-magnate) to be the regional governor in the Odessa area. (Tymoshenko’s ally, the far-right economist Arseniy Yatsenyuk, whom the Obama Administration had selected to run the interim Ukrainian government while Tymoshenko campaigns for the Presidency, did the actual appointing of Kolomoiskyi, on Tymoshenko’s behalf.) Ihor “Benny” Kolomoiskyi also had offered a bounty of $5,000 for each corpse produced from the Trade Unions Building. He was very active behind the scenes in that massacre. 1500 Mastermind of Odessa Massacre Embarrasses Ukraine’s Jews 77 1505 1510 We are investigating who is using French Minister of Finance, Michel Sapin, who calls for a replacement of the dollar78, whom, together with all French ‘representatives’, we charge with treason to the men, women and children of France, for operating France with fraudulent Euros as so-called money, for operating a system of fraudulent conversion in all French banks and using traders as a scapegoat, for example, Société Générale and Jérôme Kerviel79. We are investigating French bank BNP Paribas SA in this regard and all families connected with the said bank, as we are investigating all banks in France and French involvement in using the Bank for International Settlements as an extortion tool since the Treaty of Versailles. 1515 We are investigating the “Children’s Defense Fund”80 and Mrs. Hillary Clinton, for the death of Vince Foster81, for ‘money laundering’ the funds to fund the development of rogue nuclear weapons at Fukushima, and the connections between the P2 Masonic Lodge, Alstom, State of Israel and the use of Mrs. Hillary Clinton as “Goebbels” in the war by extortion and deception by the French Cult of Power, 73 74 75 76 77 78 www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/10909449/Passport-crisis-Theresa-May-sorry-for-delay.html www.adl.org www.greenpeace.org https://www.aclu.org/ www.washingtonsblog.com/2014/05/mastermind-odessa-massacre-embarrasses-ukraines-jews.html voiceofrussia.com/news/2014_07_07/France-stands-against-US-dollar-as-main-currency-for-intltransactions-0917/ 79 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerviel 80 bushclintonfraud.blogspot.de/2011/07/childrens-defense-fund.html 81 www.rotten.com/library/bio/usa/vince-foster/ 36/41 where she is hoodwinked into believing that her ‘strategy’ is succeeding for world domination. 1520 "She's terrific at developing and executing a well-defined plan," he writes. "She's less adept at realising that a well-defined plan is not working and improvising something new." www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-echochambers-27930691 The plan of creating a ‘new republic’ in America, modelled on the French ‘Grand Army of the Republic’82, off to fight a fascist Putin who infiltrates Greenpeace 83 is D.O.A. or Dead On Arrival. Or plan B which endlessly repeats: 1525 1530 1535 1540 1545 1550 1555 1560 As we live free or die, Lafayette remains at Brandywine and Albert Gore Jr. remains the year 2000 DULY ELECTED, non inaugurated, natural born REAL President of the United States. “Catholic Pope Threatened as the House of Cards is About to Crumble”84 by “Tom Heneghan, International Intelligence Expert” Lafayette was a Mason. The Grand Rabbi of France must form a liaison with ‘Masonic’ cults to identify reckless lunatics and legal idiots before YHVH, Ground of Being. Repeating lies via the U.S. endlessly, erodes French credibility, which since 1919, due to the Treaty of Versailles85, is now near zero. It is difficult for a French ‘banker’ or ‘statesman’ to be taken seriously. The French language, far from becoming the language of the elite, has become the language of deluded lunatics who have isolated themselves. French dependence on the appearance of beauty, the appearance of force as a substitute for real soul Power has entrapped French culture as an imitation of a low grade Hollywood film. We have mentioned how Hollywood is 82 nesaranews.blogspot.com/2014/07/republic-press-release-per-july-4th.html 83 blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/geoffreylean/100277103/why-would-vladimir-putin-bankroll-the-greenies-hepreviously-locked-up/ 84 www.tomheneghanbriefings.com/Catholic-Pope-Threatened-as-the-House-of-Cards-is-About-toCrumble__07-06-2014.html 85 www.courtofrecord.org/archive/keynes/The_Economic_Consequences_of_the_Peace/ 37/41 used to entrap ‘Royal Bloodlines’. ‘Bloodlines’ and appearance are irrelevant before YHVH. 1565 1570 1575 1580 We are investigating the murder of the Monaco heiress: “Wojciech Janowski, the son-in-law of Helene Pastor who was killed in Monaco, has withdrawn his confession to ordering her murder - saying he didn't understand French”86. The said son-in-law must contemplate “U.C.C. Mirror Reflection”, fraudulent conversion and how much a man suspected of murdering his wife’s mother for speeding up inheritance is going to be seen as a True man. The LORD is speaking to us in symbolic language of the similarities of stealing from ‘Mother’ Church. We suggest that the isolationist superiority complex of laïcité87 is not the best strategy for the future. We have heard testimony that the people of France live in fear of the “French STASI”, there is no liberty, brotherly feeling towards each other, or equality in any form. Yet, French ‘intellectuals’ believe their offer of entrapment88 for ‘Snowden’ should be taken seriously by the intended victim. We are investigating the use of Swiss holding companies, for example, by TOTAL, the French oil ‘giant’, the banks in Switzerland and the State of Switzerland as a shield for French ‘money laundering’. The Swiss have been preparing for a French invasion 89. Trustees in Switzerland are likely a bit tired of the French and would be relieved to have their difficult situation with over-issued Safe Keeping Receipts (SKRs) resolved by a dissolution of the Bank for International Settlements, UBS, Credit Suisse and all Swiss “banks” and “corporations”. We are investigating French control of ‘Boko Haram’ and the drug trade through North Africa, the use of kidnapping Muslim girls as incitement to ‘religious war’ by the French Cult of Power. The ‘show’ by “ISIS” in ‘Iraq’ appears to send a message to ‘France’, that this is not working and that war is not the answer to a quarrel with the British regarding the lines drawn on the desert sand by the Treaty of Versailles and subsequent treaties by extortionist lunatics in France. 1585 We are investigating French ‘socialist’ dependence on back-doored nuclear reactors which can be blown up at any time, just like Fukushima. Take notice that Germany has abandoned nuclear power 90. Nuclear power is not viable because the French and Israelis cannot be trusted. We are investigating French links to the so-called ‘Vatican Bank’, the appointment of a Frenchman 91 to head the Vatican bank. 1590 In short there is no entity, man or woman in our lovely Earth who is ‘above’ investigation in this contemplative Court of Record of YHVH. We send our love to YHVH, Ground of Being, to reveal the true men and women who are ready to serve all the men, women and children in our lovely earth. 1595 We pray that YHVH disable the ability of warring legal idiots to unleash terror and raise their consciousness, that they see their folly by the light of that awesome perfection of YHVH, Ground of Being and make amends. Dissolution of all corporations and ‘do not touch’ lists 1600 All corporate forms of governance cannot survive the end of the dollar and the Nation-State. Corporate nations, for example, Switzerland, will dissolve together with all banking instrumentalities and corporations. We have observed that all bankers, financial traders and insurance agents, wherever they may be, 86 www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/monaco/10943279/Monaco-heiress-contract-killing-Polishman-withdraws-his-murder-confession.html 87 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laicity 88 voiceofrussia.com/news/2014_06_14/Thousands-of-Frenchmen-support-granting-Snowden-asylum-inFrance-2594/ 89 www.bbc.co.uk/news/24329818 90 www.spiegel.de/international/germany/germany-faces-tough-decisions-as-it-dismantles-nuclear-plants-a899063.html 91 vaticaninsider.lastampa.it/en/the-vatican/detail/articolo/ior-pell-35109/ 38/41 live under Admiralty jurisdiction. We have heard of a “Do Not Touch” list in Switzerland, for example. If some banker is not on that list, we believe that their life could be in danger, as evidenced by a plethora of so-called ‘suicides’. “Two big, macabre stories came out of Wall Street recently: the rash of banker deaths by apparent murder and/or suicide, and speculation that bank CEOs themselves are behind the trend to cash in on the insurance”. 1605 Bankers killing bankers for the insurance money and another look at 9/11 92 1610 1615 We are investigating the news that “The Swiss financial regulator has given permission for bitcoin93 ATM operator SBEX to launch a network of machines in the country” 94 and the news, “Bitcoin CEO found dead in Singapore, suicide suspected” 95. We are investigating the French-HollywoodCalifornia-Japan-Intelligence agency nexus in implementing bitcoin as a tool of financial war to entrap the young and naive. Bitcoin a so-called ‘crypto currency’, burns CPU cycles and electricity which could have produced wealth, to create a perfectly tracked but obscure ‘currency’ where no thing or good is deliverable. Currency or gold is just a tally stick. A computer can be used as a ‘tally stick’ without bitcoin. As we wrote to Cardinal Nichols, “men have gone mad”. … sanity must return by the grace of YHVH. A return to God’s substance is a process, not an agreement between ‘Powers’ 1620 When Mahatma Gandhi picked up a grain of salt on the beach at Dandi, the LORD God, YHVH, Ground of Being, sent us a message in symbolic speech: “God’s substance is there to feed His people”. Explaining his choice, Gandhi said, “Next to air and water, salt is perhaps the greatest necessity of life” 96. The word ‘salary’ comes from Roman times, when salt was the payment as salarium. The Roman historian Pliny the Elder stated as an aside in his Natural History's discussion of sea water, that “[I]n Rome … the soldier’s pay was originally salt and the word salary derives from it...” 97. 1625 1630 It matters little who controls the infrastructure on the ground today. All the world’s infrastructure has been built by a century of fraudulent conversion. All the world’s infrastructure is owed back to the living men, women and children in our lovely earth. What this means is that men and women, who serve the living, must operate the infrastructure to create real markets for the first time in a century. Capitalism, Communism and Socialism are just words to entrap weak minds. It matters little who controls gold hidden in vaults and where they may have hidden it. All the worlds deliverable gold has been stolen and hoarded by a century of fraudulent conversion. There are no public prices set in gold, whatever the lunatics who do the daily ‘gold market fix’ think. 1635 1640 It matters little who is the head of various priestly organisations of various religions. The question, “do they know YHVH, Ground of Being ? ”, separates the pretenders from the actors who hold title. Righteous faithful must replace those who have claimed seats of authority to abuse it. The Jewish people in France have acted to restore the office of the Grand Rabbi, which is the happy message that this is happening in France. We believe that they have made a good choice in Your Eminence. The faithful must take the path to the discovery of YHVH, Ground of Being, Brahman, within. Each religion being a valid path to the Almighty One, YHVH, Ground of Being, can reform themselves to become less pretentious and more merciful and forgiving like the LORD, YHVH, Our Father of Fathomless Mercy for His creation. Since ancient times, it is the duty and prerogative of the Sovereign to specify the ‘money’ in society. 92 93 94 95 96 97 rt.com/op-edge/158988-bankers-killing-suicide-fraud/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin http://www.coindesk.com/swiss-regulators-give-green-light-bitcoin-atm-network/ http://rt.com/business/radtke-bitcoin-death-singapore-134/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_march#Choice_of_salt_as_protest_focus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salary#Salarium 39/41 1645 1650 1655 1660 1665 1670 1675 By insisting that all contracts are delivered in God’s good substance or energy, the role of credit in distribution of resources is replaced. The imagined panic and collapse to a “gold standard” won’t happen as this is not 1929. Short term (one month to a quarter) for contracts for delivery of goods in demand, for example, litres of diesel, kilos of wheat flour or kilowatt hours of electricity can function as money. A handful of True men and women can manage this process, which is already largely automated. A number of pretentious CEOs and others who believe they have ‘Power’ because they have an imaginary balance in an ‘offshore’ account; bankers, politicians, drug lords, tax collectors and so forth, will have plenty of time to examine their conscience before God. It was once dignified to be a monk and wander the streets, stark naked perhaps, in search of God. In this context we have a story to tell. In our college years, we travelled to India to the Gangotri glacier, the source of the Ganges river. I had wished to bring some German friends, who declined to come because the women might be upset because they would be “exposed to poverty”. On our trip we saw wandering, ash-smeared, matted haired, naked, sadhus. A sadhu is a renunciant who has taken vows of austerity, ahimsa (non-violence) and so forth, who worship Brahman, Ground of Being, Shiva. With permission, we photographed one such. On our return, this slide photograph was displayed along with the explanation, “here is a man who has given up everything and gone in search of God”. This elicited a comment, “what a parasite!”. LORD, I prayed, show me who is the parasite? The choices we have since examined, for example are, a doctor, an engineer, a lawyer, the well dressed European banker, the President of the United States, Charles de Gaulle, a ‘socialist’, a ‘capitalist’, a ‘University Professor’, a Catholic Priest, a Jewish Rabbi, myself … or the sadhu. The LORD has answered my prayer. The answer is applicable to the Jewish, French context. The wandering Romani98 or gypsy, who is closer to the sadhu type, to whom ‘a guest is God’, is more ‘Jewish’ than many a Rabbi. By God’s grace, it shall become the mark of dignity to know and try to know God, to renounce and to wander without attachment to place. The wandering sadhu’s dignity before God cannot be shaken. In our past letters we have mentioned His Holiness The Dalai Lama, who wanders like Moses with His people. Buddha’s nirvana and the Tibetan conception of Avalokiteswara correspond to YHVH, Ground of Being. Leviticus 23:4 If thou meet thine enemy’s ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. Tibet was taken away from His Holiness The Dalai Lama and the Tibetan people in exile, by Chinese thieves coordinated by foreign powers, who in turn stole China from the Chinese Emperors. There is a tale of the Emperor’s gold, Chinese bonds and so forth, that constitute affairs that must be settled and property that has gone astray, returned. The same applies in Vietnam and former French colonies. We have called for a non-territorial model of governance in our lovely earth, which, we believe, is only possible, “under God”. Gold, what every moneylender lusts for 1680 1685 1690 Gold will come tumbling out of the closet along with gold plated tungsten bars. The ‘mark of the beast’, the Caesar stamped on debased or ‘fiat’ coin, will be replaced by the ‘mark of God’, for trustworthy gold in circulation shall, God willing, be regulated by this contemplative Court of Record of YHVH, the Almighty One, Jesus Christ to the Christians, Allah Ar-Raḥmān to the Muslims, Brahman, Ground of Being. There is no need to create a monopoly issuer. A number of competing issuers will keep each other honest. An issuer is not necessarily an issuer of gold, since a litre of diesel, for example, can be issued as a short term contract. A full discussion regarding the creation of a robotic marketplace is beyond the scope of this document. The Global Settlement Foundation99, created to restore finality of settlement in trade, has further thinking on this topic outlined, where the French hero Frederick Bastiat’s That Which is Seen, and that Which is Not Seen100, an essay that dispels economic illusions, is required reading for all who wish to become trustees of God’s creation. 98 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people 99 www.global-settlement.org or www.gsf.li 100 www.gsf.li/learning 40/41 Returning gold into circulation Producers of goods, petrol and diesel for example, have extensive retail filling stations. There is a long term ratio between the price of oil or energy and the price of gold. The mechanics of putting gold back into circulation are reasonably trivial. 1695 The real problem is finding True men and women, as specified by Moses, “able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness” [Exodus 18:21] to oversee the process as servants101, not masters. Let us remember, with heads bowed in humble obeisance to the Almighty One, YHVH, Ground of Being, that this gold must be dissolved into the ocean of spirituality amongst the living men, women and children of God, to earn us the grace of Mercy and Holy Peace. 1700 We pray to YHVH, Ground of Being, for Rabbi Haïm Korsia, Grand Rabbi ‘of France’ and may the Grand Rabbi pray for all men, women and children and see them as One. Yours faithfully, 1705 Joseph Ray Sundarsson +41 43 508 1447 +44 1234 816 393 GICOR-ref: US-Rabbi-Haim-Korsia-cover-v1.00 1710 101 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servant_leadership 41/41
