“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 His thoughts are a mystery, which men may not fathom, they are veiled and withdrawn beyond the comprehension of mortals.

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:10-12)

None Like the One God

There is only one true God. The Demiurge loves to pretend that he is God, and while many believe him, he is not. Some people who oppose religion will say when someone says they believe in God, “Which one?” They think that because there are many names for God, these must be different Gods, but there is only one God, despite different people giving him different names.

Strength and Will

The strength that God has is not physical strength since God is not a physical being. One of the definitions of strength is: the capacity of an object or substance to withstand great force or pressure. That is the kind of strength that God has. No being, no force, no energy, can force God to do anything. As for His Will, it is that will that governs all of creation. The Laws of God and the Will of God are the same thing. Even the realm of nature must obey the Will of God. While many humans don’t obey God’s Will, they suffer consequences for doing so. Not that God punishes them, they punish themselves

Wisdom and Goodness

No one has either the wisdom or goodness of God. Even Jesus said so when someone called him “good master,” and he replied, “Do not call me good, only the Father in Heaven is good”. As for wisdom, I think most of us understand that the ultimate wisdom is the wisdom of God. Some materialists think that some men have wisdom. While they may have some, none have the full wisdom of God.

Power of His Thoughts

The quote says that by His thoughts God creates many kingdoms beyond Earth. This does not mean other planets and stars of the material sort. It means that God creates spiritual worlds or dimensions. When it says in the Bible that God has created us in His image, it can be interpreted in two ways. One, it means that God created our spirits, not our physical bodies. It also means that god creates things by forming an image in His mind. When he does that, the thing exists.

Urge to Seek God

The quote is correct in saying that just as a hungry person has an urge to eat and a thirsty person has an urge to drink, so man’s spirit has an urge to seek God. This is true, but only if the spirit has been awakened from the dormant state it is in when we are born into the physical world. One that happens, then the spirit does have a strong desire to know God. That is why awakening the spirit is the first part of any legitimate spiritual development school.

His Ordinances Govern

All things that exist are governed by God’s Law. Simple things that have little or no consciousness automatically conform to God’s Law. More advanced beings may foolishly try to do things against God’s Law, but in the end, they always suffer consequences for doing so. So remember, there is but one God and no other being is His equal.

“A man lives his allotted span in the dispensation of the High God of Old, whose will encompasses the daily task and round. All things have their beginning and end with God. His power cannot be suppressed. His knowledge is the wisdom of eternity. His strength reaches out into infinity.

“His dwelling place is set in the universal center, and He encompasses all the universes great and small. His breath sustains life in multitudinous forms, and his thought holds all things to their proper shape.

He prescribes the courses of the stars. He issues His commands to the winds, and they sing their responses. The wide seas murmur His praise. He moves the silences in the void of empty space, where the Eternal Heart lies sleeping. Order and beauty are shaped by His hands.

“His voice speaks from the sandy silences. He whispers in the cool breezes. He roars in the whirlwind. He murmurs in the running waters. He sighs in the treetops, and men hear His voice without understanding.

“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.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:6-9)

We Live Our Allotted Span

We each live an allotted span, which is determined, in the overall sense, by God. We can shorten our physical lives by eating poorly, not exercising, using illegal drugs, or intentional suicide. We can also increase our our span by living a healthy lifestyle, and using anti-aging supplements. Yet, while there are some who believe that eventually medical advances will allow us to live forever in a physical body, it is simply not possible. All things physical have a beginning and an end. The smart thing to do is to awaken and develop our immortal Spirit and Soul. Only that can give us true immortality.

All things Begin and end with God

Everything that exists in Nature was created by God. Even the physical universe, which was created by the Demiurge, has a spiritual element to it that was created by God. Of course, man-made things are not from God, so we can’t blame God for guns, cigarettes, and other things that are harmful to Man and other beings.

His Knowledge is Wisdom

Many people today are confused about this. Many think that the knowledge we get in school may sometimes be considered wisdom, but it isn’t. The only true Wisdom is the Knowledge that comes directly from God. This knowledge cannot be found in books, nor can it be found in the human mind. Only the Spirit and Soul can receive and understand God’s Wisdom.

God Dwells in the Universal Center

In a way, that is true, but it can be misleading. If you think of the dimensions of reality being like the layers of an onion, the center would be the middle part of the onion. In actual fact, God dwells in the highest dimension, which is the outermost layer, and all other dimensions are within it. As the quote goes on to say, God “ encompasses all the universes great and small.” So that backs up the teaching that the dwelling place of God is the outermost layer, not the innermost.

Man Sees the Shadow, but is Blinded by Light

We see the shadow world, which is the world of matter. We don’t see the spiritual world, which is invisible to the physical eyes. Only the Spirit can see the spiritual world. And if God were to appear in front of us in his true form, the brightness of His Light would probably blind us. But this also has an allegorical meaning. It means that the vast majority of us refuse to “see” anything beyond the physical. Even many who believe in God think of him as a physical being. But if God were physical, then like everything else physical, he would have a beginning and an end, and He would have a specific size. But God has no beginning and no end, and no limits.

“There is but one God, the High God, the Designer, the Creator and Ruler of the Earth and the Lord of the Kingdoms of Light and Darkness. Everlasting, All Powerful and beyond the understanding of men. The Great Dweller in Everlasting Pregnant Silence, Unseeable, Unknowable.

“By a command He created man, and in His indulgence permitted the gods to be fashioned. He is the Source of all that is, the Father of Fathers, the Mother of Mothers, the One Who preceded the sun. The sun is not God, though His creation, for its brightness bestows light and life upon the Earth. It gives warmth to the aged and quickens the child in its mother’s womb. It nourishes the seed and calls forth the green growth. It is the instrument of the High God, His furnace fire of life. The sun is removed from man at night time, but the True God is always with him. Man never walks alone; he is never unescorted”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MPR:2:1-2)

Only One True God

There is only one true God, and that is the God of Spirit, the God of Light. There are many false gods that are either fallen angels or the creation of men who like to see god in their image since they can’t comprehend a god who is so much greater than the physical being of man. Sadly, these false gods have control of the vast majority of humanity, although that is starting to improve.

Lord of the Kingdoms of Light and Darkness

The quote says the true God is Lord of the Kingdoms of Light and Darkness. While in a sense, that is true, it is really Satan who runs the kingdom of Darkness. God cannot descend into darkness, as that would polute His purity. But he can send his presence into the physical world to aid in helping humans awaken to their true Self, and that is what God has done by creating the Sun of Righteousness.

Everlasting and All-powerful

The true God is indeed everlasting. He has always existed and always will. He is all-powerful as He can create anything simply by thinking about it, and there is no power or being that can stop Him.

Father of Fathers and Mother of Mothers

While it is a convention to write about God as “He”, God is just as much female as male. God can only create that which He knows, so he must know what it is to be female as well as male.

The Sun is Not God

It is true that the sun is not God, yet it is a creation of God on the Spiritual Level. The Spiritual Sun is, in a sense, much like a human Soul. God created the Sun of Righteousness by embedding His essence in the Spiritual Sun, but not the physical sun. Nonetheless, this change to the Spiritual Sun is resulting in changes to the physical sun. In fact, as the Light of God permeates all of the physical universe, it is being gradually changed back into the spiritual form that God always intended it to be. The quote says that even though the sun is hidden from us at night, the True God is always with us. In fact, even at night and on cloudy days, the spiritual sun still shines down on us and still does the work of God.

“The good ruler should not speak falsehood; he should be as great as his responsibilities. Each word should be weighed before spoken, for it is accepted as gold and not as thistledown. He should take heed of his own judgments, for the judgments of eternity draw near. He should be, above all, an example to all men. The gardener of wickedness waters his land with deceit, and it brings forth falsehood. The good ruler should be above every deed of meanness; he should be the father of the orphan and the husband of the widow. A true leader of the people should be free from every kind of avarice, a man above every kind of pettiness. He should be a man of wide vision. He should be like the rising waters that feed the fertile fields. He should be swift and sure to execute judgment on him, to whom punishment is due. O where does he sleep today, in what generation will he come forth?”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:70)

Speaking Lies

A good leader does not speak lies. That doesn’t just mean that he refrains from telling stories that are complete fabrications; it also means he doesn’t tell partial truths, which is another way to lie. There are exceptions to this rule, as there are to almost all rules. You don’t tell a person they are ugly or stupid, even if it is true. Sometimes, good manners override the need to tell the truth. It is also necessary, especially today, for governments to keep some things secret, as revealing them to the general public can be dangerous. The quote says should weigh every word before it is spoken, “for it is accepted as gold”. In other words, it is assumed that the leader doesn’t lie. Once that assumption is proved false, the leader may never be trusted again.

Take Heed of His Judgments

While in a sense, it is only God who can judge us, a leader must judge people who behave poorly, or appoint judges to do it for him. As the quote indicates, the leader will die one day and be subject to the judgment of God’s Law, so he must judge others fairly.

Be an Example

A good ruler doesn’t act one way while expecting others to act differently. The good ruler acts as he expects others to act. If a ruler is frequently looking for ways to mistreat certain groups of people because of their religion, race, color, etc., He should not be surprised if people look on him the same way. If a ruler looks for ways to steal the natural resources of other nations, he should not be surprised when other nations try to steal the resources of his nation. If a ruler tries to find reasons to start wars, he should expect others to do the same to his land.

Free from Avarice and Pettiness

There was a time when kings and other leaders did not deal in avarice. In the past century, we have seen several leaders overthrown or assassinated because of their avarice. Yet that has not stopped modern leaders in several countries from being full of avarice. The good leader also avoids all forms of pettiness and does not react with anger when someone disagrees with him or makes a joke about him.

Wide Vision

A good leader should be a man of wide vision. That means more than just a wide vision of what is happening in the world on the physical level, but also he must have vision of the spiritual. This means that the good leader must be spiritually developed, or at least must have trusted advisors who are spiritual leaders.

 

“Hepoa went before Pharaoh, and there, in the midst of his court, he denounced him. These were the words issuing from the mouth of Hepoa, as set down by the attending scribe: “O great and mighty Pharaoh, where once the stormwind raged, there is now a gentle breeze. Where once the diligent shepherd stood, now a musician sits and idly plays. The land is no more as it was, and no man remains content within his dwelling. The northwind has ceased to enter the land, and the south wind eats it up. A heavy hand lies on the hearts of men, and their limbs are sluggish; they are languid and move no longer, as once they did. Wherefore has all this come about, the people ask, and I answer them truly, it is because the protective power has departed from the blood of the Pharaoh; it is because of the iniquity in the palace. This is a time of woe. These things I have spoken before the eyes and ears of Pharaoh, beyond the palace gates. Yet, it is not in me to leave them unsaid before the face of the king himself. Where is the great one, who sets goodness in the place of wickedness? Where is he, who replaces injustice with justice, who hears the cry of the lowly? Who causes right to prevail in the land? Where is He? I look, and I look in vain. I see only one, who has defiled the protective treasures, the glory of Egypt, with iniquity. I see only one, who has polluted the pure stream with the sewage of evil, who has

succumbed to the ultimate in wickedness. This I see, as all men see it, but I am one, who sees more. I see an Egypt gone down into dust. I see plague and death stalking the streets. I see the fertile, black waters turned back on themselves. I see the black land buried beneath the sand. I see grim-faced men coming from out of the East to stamp the land flat in blood. I see the dread things of the past recurring. I see desolation spread out on every side. Woe to you, great Pharaoh; woe to the land of Egypt! Goodness lies dying beneath the triumphant foot of evil. Virtue is betrayed into the foul hands of

loathsome lust, her despairing cry unanswered by any coming to her aid. Wickedness walks unhampered through the cities, and wrongdoing is seen on every side. Woeful are these days, and doomed are those who endure them. What does the great light shining forth from the palace conceal, sacred mysteries or secret sins?” Then, the arm of Pharaoh stretched forth to stop the mouth of Hepoa, and it was stopped. He was led forth, and whips were laid on his back, and he was placed within a dungeon.”

-the Kolbrin Bible(34:63)

Hepoa Denounced the Pharaoh

We are not told who Hepoa is, but from his actions, we can assume that he is a high priest or leader of a spiritual temple. What he says to the Pharaoh sounds mild by today’s standards, but it is obvious that the Pharaoh didn’t see it that way. When Hepoa says, “ where once the stormwind raged, there is now a gentle breeze,” he is saying that the once strong pharaoh has become weak, at least in his handling of the wickedness spreading throughout Egypt. As a shepherd, the Pharaoh was the caretaker of the people, but when Hepoa says “ now a musician sits and idly plays,” he is saying that the Pharaoh is not doing his job as caretaker of the people.

The Land has Changed

It is not stated how the land has changed, but this whole section of the Kolbrin Bible is about the spiritual leaders and mystery schools leaving Egypt for another land. The land itself is not changing, but the people are. It is curious that the author of the quote seems to equate a north wind with good things and a south wind with evil. Again today we now say that things have gone south when they are headed in the wrong direction.

Inequity in the Palace

A good pharaoh treats all people with equality. This pharaoh is no longer doing that. We can assume he is favoring the rich and powerful, something we see a lot of today. Hepoa asks, “ Where is he, who replaces injustice with justice?” He is accusing the pharaoh of not ruling with justice and fairness. He says this to the pharaoh himself.

The Sewage of Evil

Here, Hepoa is saying that because the pharaoh has opened the door for evil to enter the land, as a result, there is death and disease everywhere. The waters are polluted, and the fertile black soil has been buried in sand. In short, evil spreads everywhere like a plague.

Whipped and Jailed

As might be expected, the pharaoh was not happy with this criticism, and he had Hepoa whipped and thrown into a dungeon. Hepoa probably expected that to happen, yet he felt he had no choice but to speak up against the evil. We could use more people like Hepoa today.

“The new form of worship introduced by this Pharaoh was simple enough. Outwardly, it had all the symbols and ceremonial beloved by the people, with sufficient substance in it to attract the spiritually inclined. It could have formed a fitting gateway to the Path of the True Way, another light guiding men along the road to the embarkation port for Truth. Behind the symbols and ceremonial, the Pharaoh worshiped the Spirit behind the Sun, the Spirit of Light and Life as a direct, fully conscious member

outflowing from The Great God Behind All. The king, however, being cut off in the midst of his instruction, perceived the road but dimly. There is little doubt of his genuine desire to bring the True light to the people, but he was not wise enough to know, firstly, that one who brings light must be one in whom light burns brightly, and secondly, that the multitude cannot be exposed to its unveiled brightness with impunity. The king, severed from his weaknesses, could have been a truly great ruler, a steady light before the eyes of men, the guide to a new age for the people of the land. But he was one who cast heavily on both arms of the balances.”

-THE kolbrin Bible(MAN:34:44)

New Form Of Worship

The quote says the pharaoh introduced a new form of worship, yet it had much of the old religions, the spiritual ones taught in the temples and Mystery Schools, to satisfy both the regular people and the more spiritual ones.

Spirit Behind the Sun

This Pharaoh worshiped the Spiritual Sun, which the quote calls the spirit behind the sun. It is more accurate, however, to say that the Spiritual Sun is within and around the physical sun rather than behind it. Many people mistake this for sun worship, but it is not the sun itself that is being worshiped, but the God beyond that Sun. The quote says that this sun was a “ fully conscious member outflowing from The Great God Behind All.” That is an excellent way to word it. It tells us that while the Spiritual Sun acts as a kind of portal between Heaven and Earth, it is a conscious being in its own right.

The King Cut Off

It is not explained why the Pharaoh was cut off in the middle of his instruction, but it was probably because the spiritual school he was going to shut down or relocated because of the changing times. Nonetheless, he tried to bring the light to the people. As the quote says, one who tries to bring the light to others by teaching them how to develop their own spiritual faculties must be an advanced master of the teachings.

The Multitude Cannot Be Exposed

While well-meaning people think that if someone has spiritual knowledge, it should be shared with anyone who is willing to listen, but that is not true. Exposing people to such teaching when they are not ready can result in them harming themselves. Famous painter Vincent Van Gogh may have been one person who was driven insane by accidentally gaining knowledge he didn’t know how to handle. It can also result in harming others when people misuse the knowledge. Hitler is one person who gained spiritual knowledge he used to harm others.

“The Leader of the Light cried out, “O Great God, what can I do; how shall your servants be saved? What shall be done unto those who have profaned your sacred shrines? What can I do to turn back the rising waters of iniquity and temper the wild winds of wickedness? How can the black cloud of ignorance be lifted? What shall be the just reward of those who have slain the faithful?” The voice coming forth by the Spirit of God said, “Concern yourself not with those who have persecuted you, leave them to follow the path of their own choice. Vengeance is with Me; I will measure without stint. Justice never sleeps and never forgets; the reward of the wicked awaits them. In the Hall of No Hiding Place justice will speak the final word.

“The Leader of light and those with him fled into the land beyond Shari and built there the Temple in the Rock, which stands against Shina. In this land, the forces of the Dark Ones were cast back; yet still, some among the faithful beseeched their God to save them. Thus it has ever been, this is the nature of man that in his hour of distress he cries out to God in bitterness of heart, and they who deserted God in better times expect Him to turn towards them. Yet such is the nature of God that this He would do, were

it to the good of men, which it is but rarely. In the land of Egypt, the great shrines were deserted by the Enlightened Ones and abandoned by Truth. They became places of darkness. They were as lamps without flame, as fields without crops, as wells without water.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:27-28)

The Leader of the Light

The Leader of the Light was probably the head of the largest of the mystery schools of ancient Egypt. He earned this title by being the most spiritually developed person in the school. He is pleading with God to help save those who have remained true servants of God. He also asks that the “cloud of ignorance” be lifted from those who remain. In Cosolargy, we understand that ignorance is the cause of all sin, specifically, ignorance of God. Those who know God do not sin, as they know they are only harming themselves by doing so.

Do Not be Concerned with Those Who Prosecute You

This is a difficult directive to follow, but we should try our best. Because of the way our subconscious mind works, what we dwell on is what will most likely happen to us, so if we dwell on those who prosecute us, we invite more of that behavior into our lives. If we dwell instead on love and forgiveness, we reduce the ability of evil to affect us.

Temple in the Rock

We don’t know where this temple is, but it is most likely somewhere in Greece. We know that is where the remnants of the great Mystery Schools of ancient Egypt went after their nation lost its way. We can assume that “Shina” is another name for Satan. Schools and temples of truth and spiritual development have always opposed the evil of Satan and his followers, not by returning violence with violence, but by practicing love and sending thoughts of peace, love, and harmony into the world.

“Be ever above price. One worthy of the greatness you reflect on Earth, one ever above mundane things. Be not as the ferryman who demands payment before his task is fulfilled, who bears upon the water the man who makes payment and no other. Be as the sun, whose brightness seeks out every nook and cranny and pours light into their hidden gloom. Be one who shines among men to lighten their days. Spread uprightness and honesty across the two lands, as the sunshine spreads brightness and warmth. Cover the land with goodness, as the rising waters cover it with fertility. Fill the land with strength, as the northwind fills it with contentment.

“Guard Your heart, as a father guards his daughter, as a mother guards her baby, for it is the stronghold of integrity. Be vigilant concerning every deed, for the eyes of men are ever upon you, the life you

live is not yours alone. You are the image, which men will imitate, and you are before every eye. The blowing wind will open its ear at your windows and spread wide its report. The flowing waters beside your door will uncover their eyes and carry what they behold through the land. Your position makes

you a supporting pillar of the government; if the pillars be rotten, the roof crashes. Your responsibilities will beset your life with care; the road you journey is stony and encompassed with pitfalls and thorns. The cup You drink will be more often bitter than sweet.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:34:15-16)

Be Above Price

This doesn’t mean that you can’t get paid for the work you do. It means that you don’t base your ethics and morality on money. A job or career that pays more isn’t necessarily more worthy than a lower-paying one. Of course, your talents and abilities have to be taken into account, but you still need to choose what is moral and ethical.

Be Not Like the Ferryman

Most of us really have no choice in this. If we work for someone else, they pay us only after the work is done. If we work for ourselves, we can’t expect payment in advance. But the ferryman is one exception to this rule. Obviously, the ferryman can’t wait until he has traveled to the other shore before asking for payment. While that might work in some cases, it does make sense for him to ask for payment in advance.

Be Like the Sun

The sun does not expect payment for sending its light out to all. But it is true that the Spiritual Light sent out by the sun is not absorbed by the materialist. One needs to develop their Spirit in order to absorb Spiritual Light.

Cover the Land with Goodness

Being a spiritual person isn’t just a matter of developing yourself. We also need to do what we can to help others. Sometimes, that will be done by directly helping a specific person. More often, it will be simply sending some of the energy we take in back out into the world, filled with thoughts of peace, love, and harmony.

Guard Your Heart

In many ancient writings, “heart” actually means your spirit. So this means that you should take care to guard your spirit against evil influences. One way to do this is to visualize the Community Cross in front of the sun when you practice solar techniques. Another is to avoid people who make you feel uncomfortable or tired whenever you are around them. In situations where you must be around such people, you can visualize a shield of light around you, blocking out their influence.

 

“Where, today, are the rulers and princes this land once knew? Where are similar officials to be found? Today, bribery creeps behind the seats of judgment, corruption lurks on the right hand, and perjury sneaks around to the left. What of the flow of fine words that accompany a magistrate to his seat of appointment? What have these noble utterances become but a more meaningless babble. Yet are they not a glorious thing capable of moving the hearts of men with their inspiring message of hope in the ultimate attainment of justice? Let them be recorded for all time.

“He who is pure of hands comes forth. He utters the words that have come from the Temple of Man. Those with panther skins bear the symbols of authority. These words are spoken. You are the ever faithful servant of Truth. the humble one who begs her for guidance. You are not the lord of justice but one who ever seeks it with humility and perseverance, praying it will bless your decisions. You are henceforth one whose words are heavy with authority, whose eyes see without prejudice and whose ears are closed to intolerance. Your thoughts are clear and clean, your heart is pure. It is free of all malice, and to you, a vindictive verdict will be an abomination. The mantle of wisdom rests on your shoulders and the robe of learning is your garment. Your tongue is the servant of Truth and the sword of justice. Your mouth is the shrine of honor and the cave of retribution. Your heart is the temple of purity and the storehouse of wise judgments from the past.”

“Justice will ever be your guiding light and rule; it will lead you even to the appointed place before the mother of the king. Wherever you go, uprightness will take command. You will wield the sword of justice without fear; you will bear it before the sight of all men. You will carry it to the rich and powerful, to the poor and lowly, without discrimination. You will strike down all merchants of falsehood, all fork-tongued deceivers, all who bear false witness or break the statutes of the king. Let wickedness perish in the sands.”

The Kolbrin Bible (MAN:34:11-13)

Rulers and Princes

There was a time when rulers tried their best to follow the Laws of God and the laws of nature. They passed laws that extended and explained the Laws of God rather than opposing them. But as the quote indicates, today many rulers are subject to bribes and corruption. They rule for the benefit of the wealthy, not for the benefit of all. Of course, the “today” that the quote is talking about was centuries ago, but we see it happening again, perhaps worse than ever.

Inspiring Messages

Those ancient rulers who followed the Laws of God did leave inspiring messages to be passed on to future generations in the times when such rulers were scarce. The Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius was a good example of this. His philosophy is studied even today.

From the Temple of Man

The ancient students of the spiritual temples were faithful servants of truth, and were guided with humility, grace, and love. There eyes say without prejudice, meaning they did not treat people differently because of their race, religion, sex, or nationality.

The Robe of Learning

The robe of learning is the garment of the righteous person because such a person never quits learning, never believes there is nothing more to learn.

Justice

The righteous do bring justice to all equally. They will treat the rich and the poor the same. And they will do their best to help God bring an end to the wickedness in the world. It may seem like the opposite of this is happening, but the wicked must be brought out of their hiding places and exposed to the Light of the Sun of Righteousness to burn the wickedness out of them.

“They say among themselves, as it will ever be said when men are deluded by their mortality, The life of man is short and uncertain; the one certainty in life being the approach of death. What awaits hereafter, no man can tell, for no man is known to have returned from out of his tomb. We are all the children of accident and mischance, and in a short generation shall be as though we had never been. Our bodies shall harden and be ground to dust, and the fire of our hearts shall burn itself out and turn to ashes. Our shade will hover for its day and then be wafted away on the wind, and as the waters come and go, our name will pass from the memories of men forever. The works of man shall pass away like the shadow of a cloud upon the sand, and his life will vanish like the dew of morning that disappears in the heat of the rising sun. What are the days of man, but the shadow of a shadow, and he

passes away to an end from which there is no returning. He goes out through a door which is immediately shut, and there is no way back.

“They say, Come, therefore, and let us be joyful; let us cast aside the long face of learning and the melancholy face of discipline. Let us enjoy the good things of life, which are all about us. Let us take no thought for an uncertain future; where is the profit in that? Let us eat and drink to fullness, let us grant our bodies all means of satisfaction. Let no means of pleasure and enjoyment pass us by, but whatever comes our way, let us make the best of our lot in life. Let us turn our backs on all doctrines of the spirit, for they deny us much. Let us give full rein to all our senses and feelings, and let them serve the ends of pleasure. …

“Such are the things spoken by men today, and if the declare them not openly, they hide them in their hearts. … Gold is not gathered by the wayside.

“Yet, the wisdom of our fathers did avail them, whatever is said in the streets today. They have indeed left a memorial worthy of reverence, and they are not without shrines. … As for the Enlightened Ones, who passed among the people and strengthened them since the days when the gods walked with

men, their names have become lasting even though they themselves have gone.”

-The Kolbrin Bible (Man:34:7-10)

Life is Short

It is true that life is short and uncertain, but only if you consider just our physical life. Spiritual life is neither short nor uncertain, but those who choose to live only as material beings know nothing of that eternal life.

No Man can Tell What Awaits Hereafter

Again, this statement is true only if you are a materialist who knows nothing of your own spiritual Self. Those who have awakened and developed their spiritual Self know that a greater life awaits in the spiritual realm for those who prepare for it. But what many can’t understand is that the materialist who does nothing to prepare for that eternal life will be denied it.

Works of Man Pass Away

That is true, but some people have learned to make things that last thousands of years. Some examples of that are the pyramids of Egypt and the roads built by the ancient Romans. Unfortunately, today, the philosophy of most companies is to build everything to be temporary. This has resulted in people who generally think the same way. They concern themselves with the temporary pleasures of matter and ignore the permanent ones of the Spirit.

Wisdom of our Fathers
