“These writings are dedicated to The Great God Who is Eternal. May they live forever among things that survive to serve man. May they be an enlightening lesson and a warning to those who follow, for now a dark night of ignorance and fear overshadows the land. Your servant bows to Your will, O Great God Who is benevolent towards those who serve with purity of intent.
“We who remain loyal glorify You, not with mere words, for the time of hypocrisy has passed, but in our inmost thoughts and in our deeds. We remember You as the sun rises to Your glory in the morning and, as in the evening, it sets into Your peace. Teach us that there is joy in being Your servants. Keep us under Your protecting wing.
“Great Spirit Who made the Nile to flow, the great water, which never wearies or ceases from its journeying. Its movement is as everlasting as the wind. May the stream of my life be filled to overflowing with the waters of righteousness. Loose the shackles of wickedness, which hold me captive. Let not the string of my lute be broken while I play, and let not my labors be ended before their fulfilment. Though men hail me for a greater thing than any that has been done before, it will not be my memorial. Time will eat away my name, but let many mornings dawn on my waking, that I may complete the task entrusted to me. Remove the fears that lurk about me in the solitude. Cut off the bonds of affliction that bind me down. Let my spirit roam free. We who remain loyal know Your laws and the Great Law, which is as firm as the hills of immortality. In the days to come great songs will be sung unto You, even as they were sung in the days of old.
“The priests can no longer be held in restraint by Umotif, and dark days threaten us. It is a time of foreboding, yet there is peace throughout Kahemu. The state of men in high places is such that the beauty of Truth has to be concealed from them, lest they profane even her purity.”
-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:31:1-4)
God is Eternal
Foolish people will ask, “Who created God?” or “What existed before God?” If you understand what God is and what the Realm of Spirit is, you would know those questions are foolish. No one created God. If some being did, that being would be greater than God. You can say that God is self-created. Likewise, nothing could exist before God, nothing could exist without God. God is the source of all creation. Even the fallen realm of matter was part of the spiritual realm created by God before the Demiurge altered it and changed it into matter.
We Glorify You
Those who remain faithful to the true spiritual teachings of the ancient Mystery Schools remain loyal to God and glorify God, never placing the Demiurge, or any other false god, ahead of the true God of Light and Spirit.
The Sun Rises to God’s Glory
While the author of this chapter of the Kolbrin Bible doesn’t say so, it should be clear that when he says “The sun rises to God’s glory, he is talking about the Spiritual Sun.
Loose the Shackles of Wickedness
At the time this was written, Egypt was under the control of evil and wicked leaders. We are seeing much of this in our world today, so we can empathise with the author asking God to help save those who serve God from the evil ones.
Let many Mornings Dawn on me
The author is asking God to give him a long life in the physical realm. He understands that the longer he lives here, the more he can help to achieve God’s Goals and spread the Truth and Wisdom of God to those who are ready to hear it.
Great Songs
In the coming Golden Age of Enlightenment, great songs will be sung to God, as the Powers of Light finally defeat the powers of darkness forever, and the dark realm of matter will become Spirit again. So glorify God, who is the only one who can save us.
