(revised 01.09.X1, Anno Diabolus) by Rev Maskim Xul To start off with, here are some comparisons... The Black Flame: the light that casts no shadow, wisdom (Modern) Da'ath: the abyssous sephira, knowledge (QBLH) Me: tablets of destiny, divine doctrine (Sumerian) The Da'ath is the invisible Sephira, the abyss. Now, you must ask yourself, what is the abyss? Well, lets look at this from the beginning. You have five elements: energy, earth, air, fire, and water. Everything is either made up of these. Living creatures are most commonly, though not all the time, made up of water, earth, air, and energy; though one could debate that they are made up of all of these, in some form or another. Well, what would the abyss be then? Some see it as a literal part of the ocean, which would make it water. Some say it's a firey pit, making it earth and fire. Finally, some believe it to be a "hell", making it pure energy. For this, we'll go with the "Hell" theory. So, if the abyss is pure energy, that would put it as one with anything else with energy, ie. everything. The Sumerians saw the abyss as the Ab-Zu("sea of wisdom", though some would argue it as "sentient sea"). The Ab-Zu is the primeval source for all things. According to evolution, everything evolved from oceanic life. Now, somehow the Sumerians knew this...it's too much to hope that "sea of wisdom" being the primeval source is a coincedence. Everything came from this abyss, it is the "materials to create with", the source of all things, energy. The Have you ever wondered just why our emotions are referanced by the heart? Its an organ that pumps out lifeblood and is essential to our existence...but what made it correspond with emotion? Well, emotion is impossible without thought, though thought is possible without emotion. What is though? Well, it's link to wisdom is very strong. Wisdom? "Sea of wisdom"? On the Sephiroth, the Da'ath correlates to the heart, when compared physically(Malkuth- feet, Yesod- groin, Tiphareth- solar plexus, Kether- head). So, this Da'ath, the heart, the abyss, it all connects. From that, it would make sense to see the heart, the organ that pumps our lifeblood, as the link in our soul to it's source... to our maker. And since this abyss is the primeval source... why claim any other maker than the obvious? This is the product of the "sea of wisdom", the Me-Gal-Gal, the Living Continuum, the gift of Ab-Zu. It is received through our heart, Da'ath, the producer of our very lifeblood. The lord of this gift, the dispenser of the wisdom... Nanna: (sumerian)"full moon", (Babylonian - Sin; Hebrew - SML; Roman - Lucifer) Nergal: (sumerian)"great lord", lord of the underworld (Babylonian - Erra; Hebrew BLIOL) Kutulu: (simonomical)"man of Kutha", initiator of dreams Pazuzu: (mesopotamian)"knowing the life of the fever", lord of the southwest winds, lord of all things airborne LVYThN: (hebrew) lord of the raging sea, giver of wisdom to Eve Lucifer: (roman)"light-bearer", lord of enlightenment (Latin root - Lux Ferre) KRNZN: (enochian)lord of the abyss, lord of da'ath Nyarlathotep: (lovecraftian)messenger of the underworld These all signify a bringer of wisdom, of enlightenment, of knowledge. What is knowledge? Physically... it is a series of stored electric impulses in the brain. These electrons... what element are they made up of? Why, energy, of course! And the deities listed above all have in some way or another represented the gift of that form of energy. Yes, all different names for the same deity, the Dingir-Zu, En-Zu-Gal, the I AM of the Most High Triumvirate. The Black Flame is given from the Ab-Zu to the recipient through the Da'ath. It is wisdom, knowledge, instinct... it is all these things. The gift of Ab-Zu. It, metaphor- ically, casts no shadow, therefore illuminating all and hiding nothing. It is the flame of truth, in that sense. It is the essence of vitality within us all, the very soul. "when you gaze long into the Abyss, the Abyss also gazes into you..." -Friedrich Nietzsche Yes, Nietzsche, the abyss does gaze back into you... for when you look into yourself, that is who you see. __________________________________________________________________ | | | inspirational credits: Tigrah(www.tigrah.com), Rev Wharg0ul, | | Trey Azagthoth(www.morbidangel.com), the all-one(zi-zi kutulu- | | abzu-kiama, kanpa!) i give much praise to the very source of | | all that i am! ia megalzu! ia pazuzu! ia anunaki! ia kutulu! | |__________________________________________________________________| |
