The Mistery of Belicena Villca
– You say well , Priest ; The Stone of Fire holds a very big Mystery . We will talk about it , but we will be brief , because it is time to return to the East . – It was evident that Birsha expressed in an allegorical way , since the Immortals would not leave until the following day-- . But Before we leave we will also tell you about your next mission , now that the Cursed Seed of Tharsis has died , and it will be advantageous to do so within the framework of that Mystery . Have you brought the book that we requested ?
--As you requested , the book has been moved here , said the Abbot of Clairvaux . It is found in the Castle library , under permanent custody of three Knights , who will kill anyone who tries to get closer to it . We also brought a clairvoyant master sculptor from Clairvaux , that awaits our call in his cell .
– Then let ' s go up to the library ! – Bera ordered , while he hid the fearsome Dorché under his tunic .
They ascended through the trap door that led to the Church of Nuestra Señora del Mayor Dolor and moments later the six were found in a room whose furniture consisted of shelves and tables covered with books and scrolls ; various lecterns exhibited , open , some enormous books , with pages exquisitely illustrated by Benedictine monks and built with gold inlaid covers and silver . From a chest reinforced with riveted hardware and a bulky lock , the Abbot of Clairvaux removed the Sefer Icheh and placed it on a larger table , with a double inclined plane but well lit by a central candelabra . To a sign of Birsha , the four Priests sat in front of the book , while the Immortals stood , one at each end of the group .
– Open it to page 12 , Lamed ! Birsha demanded .
The book only contained images , that is , it lacked any text , except for the words distributed in the pictures . On the requested page , the representation of the ten Sefirot of the One Creator in the form of Arbor Philosophica . Everyone was watching Bera , who immediately took the word .
Twenty-Seventh Day
As is known , Dr . Siegnagel , the " sacred book " par excellence , for the Jews , is the Torah , which is essentially made up of the five books of the Pentateuch as presented by the Scribe Ezra in the 5th century B . C .. But this is the written Torah , Torah Shebikhtab , which should be regarded as a profane , exoteric Doctrine , since its true " Divine Wisdom ", Chokhmah , is encrypted in the Scripture and cannot be interpreted without knowing the cryptographic keys of the Kabbalah . There is therefore also an oral Torah , Torah Shebalpeh , which deals with these keys and constitutes the Esoteric Doctrine known to members of the " kabbalistic chain ", shalsheleth haqabbalah . The main theme of the Torah is the Sinaitic revelation , that is , the Chokhmah that Jehovah , YHVH , reveals Moses on Mount Sinai and that is synthesized in the Decalogue of the Tablets of the Law . Now Moses received the Tablets , Mocheh Qibbel Thorah Mi Sinai , on Mount Sinai , and from this fact must necessarily start the kabbalistic chain since Kabbalah comes from the verb qabbel , which means to receive . However , if the shalshleth haquabbalah begins in Moses , it must be remembered that he received two Tablets of the Law : only the first contained the revelation of the " Divine Wisdom ", Chokhmah , object of the Esoteric Doctrine of the Kabbalah ; the latter were an exoteric synthesis of those and were encrypted , like all the written Torah . According to the Kabbalah , the first Tablets came from the Tree of Life , that is , from the Intelligence of the One , Binah , while the latter were taken from the side of the Tree of Good and Evil .
The Tree of the Science of Good and Evil , whose fruit he had eaten , was the cause of the expulsion of Adam from Paradise : -- “ Then said Jehovah God : I have here that Man has become like one of us , by having known Good and Evil . Lest he now stretch out his hand and also take the Tree of Life , eat of it and become Immortal . And Jehovah God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the land with which he was created . So he cast the Man , and posted on the East of the Garden of Eden , cherubs armed with Swords of Fire , to guard
