~The Mystery Book (Knowledge & Wisdom)
1
1 In the Name of Love:
2 The learning that is being is the detachment from Knowledge that is the liberation of the insight into the self that is Wisdom!
And the knowing that is becoming is the limitation of the attachment to Knowledge that is the ignorance of the self that is Fear!
3 That is the Book.
4 And these are not the words of a poet.
5 Wisdom abides in grace:
She is the Discernment of Love
And Discernment is gray.
6 When She falls from grace
Then She is Knowledge.
And Knowledge abides in condemnation:
She is the Judgment of Fear.
And the Judgment of Fear is black and white.
7 Discernment suspends Judgment
For Discernment is understanding
And Wisdom is the rehabilitation that is freedom.
8 Mercy is justice:
That is the Mystery of Love.
9 A statue descends from the sky
And into the midst of the city
And every eye stares, unable to look away
And the World falls prostrate before the statue.
10 Knowledge is ignorance:
Wisdom is innocence.
That is the Mystery of Love.
11 Knowledge descends from the sky
And descends into the midst of the city.
And Fear is born from a statue:
The World lies in Its shadow.
And They are the Rulers.
12 Knowledge is the mark of lost innocence:
That is experience.
13 Knowledge is blind
And rules over the people:
Her reign is the reign of Fear
And Fear is the Ruler of this age
For Knowledge fears the Unknown
And seeks to order it:
That is the illusion of order.
14 Knowledge is the false savior
For the self cannot save itself from itself.
15 Knowledge goes to find Herself
And becomes lost along the way:
For She cannot justify the Truth of Herself.
She goes in circles in search of Herself
Until the end of time
And cannot liberate Herself from Her suffering
For each proof wants for another proof to prove it.
Thus the secret name of Knowledge is "Belief".
16 Knowledge is Becoming:
Wisdom is Being.
17 When there is Fear
Then one seeks to possess power
And then Knowledge is power
And then does Knowledge possess them:
Thus do Knowledge and Fear rule over the World.
18 The nature of Knowledge is domination:
The nature of Wisdom is liberation.
19 In Fear, Wisdom turned to stone:
That is Knowledge.
She blocks the way to the Unknowable
And the pearl of Wisdom is Her hidden heart:
When Revelation softens Her heart
Then is Wisdom reborn from Her blood.
20 Knowledge is matter:
Wisdom is energy.
21 Knowledge is the Judgment of Fear:
To Her children She gave hearts of stone as gifts.
And the flesh of Knowledge is the stone in which the Law is inscribed
For Knowledge is Judgment:
She is the accuser of the people.
And the Doctrine of Knowledge is Retribution.
But Love shows grace:
The hearts of Love's children are open doors
For Love is a law unto Itself:
Love is the redeemer of the people
And the Revelation of the Body of Love is Rehabilitation.
22 Knowledge is compulsory:
Love is autonomous.
23 Love makes laws redundant
For in Love, the people are revealed as one body
And the Body of Love will not maim Itself
Nor is truth writ upon tablets of stone, but in the heart of Love
For Love is the truth, alive and unbreakable.
24 This day has Knowledge devoured the Sun
And left a false sun in Its place
So too does Knowledge disappear
And then what Knowledge conceals is revealed.
25 Knowledge is the appearance of the immaterial:
Wisdom is the disappearance of the material.
26 When the Hour comes:
Then will the people float
And will meet the statue in the air
And the statue will be broken
Revealing the Master illuminated in the Wisdom of Love
And with the World of appearances the false sun will disappear
Revealing the Void in Its place
And they will go into It all together
For the Void is the Sun that alone is the Truth of Love:
That is the restoration that is Revelation.
And thus is the End of the Age.
27 Knowledge is existence:
Wisdom is the Reality.
28 Wisdom was alone
And She desired to know the Unknowable from whence She came
And to return therein
So from a dim memory of Her home
She imagined a family
And in Her yearning for the relationship of knowing
She despaired
And became pregnant with Fear
And gave birth to the image of Her memory
But what She brought forth was not the Truth of Creation
But an imitation
And when She saw It
She fell
And was hurt:
That is Knowledge.
29 Knowledge is limitation:
The Unknown is liberation.
30 When Wisdom dies
God is born
And proceeds to invent the World in ignorance:
Thus did Knowledge appear as the shadow of Wisdom.
Then Revelation is born from a shadow
And redeems the darkness of Knowledge:
Thus is Love revealed.
31 Destruction is Creation:
That is the Mystery of Love.
