“Man dreams and says this is reality. He sees the shadow, but is blinded before the light. He reasons and is deceived. The design of the True God and His nature cannot be understood in the light of reason, for reason is not with this God, who knows all things without reason.

“There is none other like unto the One God in all His glory. Whose strength can challenge Him? Whose will can contend with His will? Whose might can equal His? Where is another with His wisdom? Who in goodness can compare with Him?

“By the power of His thoughts, many kingdoms are brought forth beyond Earth. He speaks the unutterable word, and they are created. He rules His creatures with infinite wisdom and directs their destinies with unchallengeable decrees. His will controls the forces within men , and the thing they seek unknowingly is Him. As the body, when hungry is filled with the urge to eat and when thirsty, with the urge to drink, so is the spirit in man filled with the urge to seek God.

“His ordinances govern Earth and the Heavens above. All things therein have their appointed place and purpose, and in their nature conform to His Law. His ways are inscrutable, transcending the understanding of men. His thoughts are a mystery, which men may not fathom, they are veiled and withdrawn beyond the comprehension of mortals.

“His design is unrevealed to the multitude. Few are the men who can understand why He planted the road to the Place of Glory with the sharp stones of suffering and pain. Or why life is a struggle through the thorny forest of adversity.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:9-13)

Man Dreams

You might think this first sentence in the quote is false because you know your dreams are not reality. But what this sentence really means is that the world of matter is no more real than your dreams. That is not to say that the realm of matter doesn’t exist, but rather that it is the realm of illusion, and it is not at all what it seems to be. As the next sentence says, we see the shadow, but are blinded by the Light. You can compare this sentence to Plato’s allegorical tale of the people living in a cave who think that the shadows they see on the wall are reality. The shadows are not reality, and matter is not the true reality. Actual reality is the Spiritual Realm of Light created by the true God.

None Other Like God

There is only one True God, who is the God of Light, the God of Spirit. The god of matter is a false god. So are the many gods that have been created by humans in their minds. Even if millions believe in some of these gods, that doesn’t make them the True God. As the quote says, no other has the strength, wisdom, and will of the True God. It should mention Love since love is the greatest of God’s attributes, and the one God expects us to follow as well. Not Love of some who are similar to us, but love of all.

Kingdoms Brought Forth

It may be true that God has created many “kingdoms,” but all He creates is Spirit. Matter is the false creation made by the Demiurge.

His Ordinances

God’s Law is the highest law in both the spiritual and physical realms. Some men like to think they can make laws that override the Law of God, but they are wrong. While men may write laws that are contrary to the Laws of God, God still expects all of us to obey His Law.

His Thoughts are a Mystery

This is something you hear said in many conventional Churches. When someone asks why God does certain things, or allows evil things to happen, the pat answer is that Man cannot understand the reasoning of God. That is true for those who try to understand Him with their physical brain-mind. But those who make the effort to awaken and develop their spiritual faculties will eventually reach a level of consciousness that puts them into direct contact with God. When that happens, God’s thoughts will no longer be a mystery.

Road of Sharp Stones

It is true that the path of enlightenment is not smooth or straight. It is a difficult path for two reasons. One is that if we are to be agents of God on Earth, we have to be strong, and facing adversity helps us develop that strength, much like lifting weights helps us develop muscular strength. The other reason is that the demonic agents of the Demiurge do not want us to develop our Spiritual Self, so they put obstacles in our path. We should not let those “sharp stones” turn us away from developing our Spiritual Self.

“Wherever the sun shines or the wind blows; wherever there is an eye to see with clarity or an ear to hear with understanding, a mind to receive and assimilate, there let the greater way of life be made known and the maxims of Truth be honored and obeyed.

“Written for the elect by the Master of Mysteries, once Overseer of Harvests and Recorder of Taxes. Guardians of Tombs and Upholder of Royal Decrees, Beloved of the High Gods and the gods. Keeper of the Secrets of the Highest God, Lesser Lord of Jubilees and Grand Scribe of the Sacred Writings. One born into the house of a false god, whom he rejected, Distributor of Barley Seed and Master of the Great Sanctuary. Chief of Seers and Guardian of the Great Mysteries. Watcher at the Sacred Shrine and

Defender of the Lakeland and the Gates. Inspector of the Courtyard of the Sacred Being, Guardian of the Hidden Records and Servant of the Secret Temple, Messenger of the True God. Third Begotten Son of an enlightened father, a Magistrate of a goodly city. Son of a gentle lady Sistrum bearer and mistress of the song-stresses in the Temple of the Twofold God. Now one whose name is obliterated by unchallengeable decree, but once a man of goodstanding in this country, whose estate remains to this day.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:1:6-7)

Wherever the Sun Shines

It is not by accident that the sun is the first thing mentioned here. The ancient priests of Egypt were aware of the importance of the sun and its connection to spiritual awakening and growth. As was standard with spiritual knowledge, they never say it right out, but just hint at it or use an allegory.

Greater Way be Known

The Greater way of life is that of spiritual development. Anyone can develop a reasonable life in the material world, but it takes special individuals to be able to awaken and develop the Greater Way of spiritual Knowledge and Truth.

Written for the Elect

The author of the quote doesn’t directly say what was written for the elect, but included in his long list of titles for this person is “Grand Scribe of the Sacred Writings.” From that, we know that what was written for the elect is the Sacred Writings that help people awaken and develop their spiritual Self. Much of these ancient writings were lost, especially when the library of Alexandria was burned down. Fortunately, Cosolargy has been able to regain much of those teachings and modernize them for a new age and new people. It is still true that they are written for the elect, but with the Sun of Righteousness shining down on us now, it is becoming easier for people to awaken and become members of the elect.

Guardian of the Hidden Records

One who was born in the house of a false god, rejected that god and turned to Truth. It isn’t clear if being “born in the house of a false god” means that his family followed a false god, or that he was a priest at a temple for the false god. What matters is that he rejected that false god. He became, among other things, “ Chief of Seers and Guardian of the Great Mysteries.” Those are impressive titles, and he must have shown spiritual greatness to earn them. He was probably the equivalent of a real saint, such as St. Francis of Assisi. The quote adds that he had enlightened parents. That goes along with the teachings of Cosolargy that say that each generation that follows the teachings will have children who will be potentially even more spiritually developed. That doesn’t mean we can’t develop our spiritual faculties if our parents were not spiritual, just that it will be a little harder for us.
