Revelations, Seals & Consciousness:

The First Seal*

The opening of the First Seal of the Revelation of John symbolizes the Revelation of Knowledge (by means of the non-dualistic, 2-dimensional ‘flat’ space “observing consciousness” Created ‘by and in the image of God’—Genesis 1:27) through both the Vision of the “Son of man” (the Third Phase of the War of the Sons of Light) and the Revelation of “the resurrection” (the Second Phase of the War of the Sons of Light).

The Vision of the “Son of man” ‘awakens’ and is experienced by all Seven Churches—which loosely correspond to the seven principal ganglia of the sympathetic nervous system; each of which has an associated emotion; most (?) of which have corresponding endocrine glands; as signified by time segment 3:58-4:51 of:

▶ Lord of the Dance - Cry of the Celts HD ;

(the movements of the dancers at 4:46-4:49, 5:08-5:10, and 5:24-5:28 representing the Vision of the “Son of man” itself)—and terminates at the Seventh Church (the phonetic tone of which is Long I) or the ‘forehead chakra’ (symbolized by Jesus being crucified ‘between two thieves’ ‘at the Place of the Skull’; which is also echoed by the symbol of the two serpents winding around the central staff of the caduceus; which corresponds, also but loosely, to the sushumna, flanked by the ida and pingala of kundalini); while the Revelation of “the resurrection” is experienced by the Fourth Church or the ‘heart chakra’; the phonetic tone of which is Long A.

The Revelation of “the resurrection” includes the Revelation of the Memory of being Created with a non-dualistic (explained by Jesus in Saying #11 of the Gospel of [Israel]-->Thomas-->[Linda] with the words: “On the day when you were one, you became two” ) consciousness (cryptically referred to in the Thanksgiving Hymns of the Dead Sea Scrolls by the term “angels of the Face”, and echoed in the Gospel of Truth (from the Nag Hammadi Codices) by the phrase “…as though to say that they have participated in [H]is [F]ace by means of kisses”), the Revelation of the Memory of ‘the Fall’ into the self-created, dualistic consciousness of the “self” and the ‘thinker’; and the revelation of the memories of previous lives, represented musically in this video with the repetition of the Long A phonetic tone:

▶ Dead Can Dance - Yulunga

(the opening 1 minute and 9 seconds of which convey the emotions associated with the Second, Fifth and Sixth Churches, which provide the emotional context for the Revelation of “the resurrection”; followed by the emergence of phonetic tones, followed by a “death rattle”, which leads to the Long A phonetic tone of the actual memories of previous lives, represented by the different dancers, etc.); whereas the Long A phonetic tone repeated throughout this video:

▶ The Bangles - Eternal Flame

focuses more on the love which is experienced and expressed by and through the Fourth Church/‘heart chakra’.

The white horse of the First Seal represents Isaac [-->the apostle John-->Robin] and the Revelation of Truth (the downward pointing triangle of the Star of David); while the rider on the white horse is Ishmael (Genesis 21:20) [-->the apostle Peter-->Cindy]:

▶ Dead Can Dance - Toward the Within - "I Can See Now - American Dreaming" ,

representing scientific truth and the search for Truth (the upward pointing triangle of the Star of David); while the music (properly explained in an oral Teaching) and English lyrics of the following song (preceded and accompanied by the woman singing phonetic tones, from time segment 4:22-6:05) echo and expand upon the Revelations (properly explained in an oral Teaching) and the Revelational history recorded in Genesis:

▶ Dead Can Dance - Toward the Within - "Rakim"

The Knowledge Revealed through the Vision of the “Son of man” is also represented in the choreography of:

▶ Michael Flatley's Stolen Kiss ;

(the crown worn by the woman in the white dress signifying the “queen of the South”—Chapter 11, verse 31 of the Gospel of Luke—as a Feminine characterization of the Vision of the “Son of man”); with time segment 0:57-0:59 representing the Vision of the “Son of man” itself; time segment 1:07-1:09 signifying the writing of the Revelations; time segment 1:47-1:48 signifying the reading of the Revelations; and time segments 2:22-2:23 and 2:26-2:27 representing both the ‘two thieves’ (or “ida” and “pingala”) ‘at the “Place of the Skull” and the “two witnesses” of Chapter 11, verses 11-12 of the Revelation of John.

The ‘Messages to the Seven Churches’, then, consist of cryptic fragments of an oral Teaching which address both the emotions experienced at each of the ‘chakras’, as well as the characteristics of the progressive deterioration from the consciousness Created by God to the self-created consciousness of the “self” and the ‘thinker’ (many aspects of which Teaching are briefly referred to at:
