Symbolic
shrouds continue to protect the Bible, Koran, Mahabharata, and virtually all
ancient scriptures I studied. While there are archetypes common to all of the
scriptures, each culture placed specific demands on the reader. Hence it is
likely that most people in the West are more familiar with the Bible than with
other scriptures.
Nevertheless, what amazes me is that, to my knowledge, not a single
organized religion took to trouble to explain this fact, let alone the meaning
of the symbols, to their faithful. Perhaps the learned doctors of theology were
and still are ignorant of the symbolic meaning themselves. After all, none are
so blind as those who have eyes yet cannot see. That’s right. Not those who
cannot see objects but those who cannot see the meaning conveyed by the
inspired mystics.
The problem, of course, was and is organized religion—as is organized
science, for that matter. Great many learned scientists are equally as ignorant
of scriptural symbolic meanings as the vast majority of priests and preachers. Yet
abject ignorance never stopped the ‘scientists’ nor the ‘theologians’ from
giving us the benefit of their ignorance.
I suppose there is no money in telling people the truth. The faithful
would soon take off, on their own, and there would be no one to support the
clergy.
Sometime ago I’d published a book entitled DELUSIONS—Pragmatic Realism, in which I compared the abysmal ignorance of
fundamentalists in both sacerdotal and scientific fraternity. Surely, now that
quantum mechanics is an accepted branch of science, both parties ought to
consider espousing probabilities in lieu of absolutism.
Yet, both prefer to insist that they are right. ‘Absolutely’ became a
favourite word even for the ‘masses’.
I offer an alternative.
You might know that, to this day, more than 3300 Hebrew and/or
Ancient Greek words in the Bible remain not translated into English. While the
experts in ancient languages seldom agree in the precise meaning of words, I
made as many variations as I could find available to you, to make sure that YOU
and you alone will choose those words which your inner voice, your intuition,
will guide you to choose. Only then you will discern the true meaning of
scriptures as they apply to YOU.
Those who are evolved
enough to stand on their own feet can try to make use of my Dictionary of Biblical Symbolism. While,
as mentioned above, all scriptures have been written in a symbolic idiom, the
Bible is most familiar document to people in our part of the world. Thus, with
luck and perseverance, you might find out what the evangelists and the prophets
really had in mind. The book will give you the necessary knowledge to decipher
the ancient writings on your own.
Believe me, you will be enormously surprised.
Good luck.
