Who Wrote the Bible?

The persons who wrote the Bible all made serious pilgrimages of personal enquiry into their inner selves and as a result of their spiritual efforts were rewarded with revelations regarding the human condition and the relationship between man and God.. They were ex-shamans who were the inheritors of a vast wealth of orally transmitted totemic lore that reached back though the Ages. As the first Scribes they were initiated as - kabbalists, sufis, yogis, swamis, taoists, buddhists, alchemists, priests and bishops. They translated their inspirations into encouraging texts, asserting that there is a God in the Universe and that contact with the Source of Being brings profound enlightenment to life. They coded their writings so that seekers could find deeper truths hidden among the parables. The first level was for children. The second for parents and the third for those striving to become spiritual adepts like themselves.

They also wrote down simple social laws on how to live the good life.

The problem with all communication, especially in trying to transpose profound thoughts vai the mechanical nature of the written word, is that each composition is subject to endless interpretations. This is expecially so when trying to define a Law. There is not be enough room in the universe to house the libraries of argumentive law books that can be written, trying to unalterably define a single clause. As a result, this mis-interpreation of religious texts has led to endless "holy" wars.

Loa Tse realized this difficulty from the start when he wrote the Tao te Ching.
He who knows does not speak
He who speaks does not know

In modern times, since the challenge of science, literal interpretations of the Scriptures, without their deeper levels of revelation, have become far too divisive. They were necessary during the era of nation bulding but have since become a serious hinderance to further spiritual development. They have alienated the majority of intellectuals, excited international terrorism and are not relevent in a global milieu, They should not preached in public places any longer. The Bible is no longer encouraging enough people to make serious spiritual enquiry. As a whole, we have drifted away from the enigmas of religious thought. Church halls are empty and university halls are crowded with more curious students. Science is now the global religion. As a result, despite extra-ordinary advances in technology, the moral nature of the world is going down-hill faster than it is going up.

The need for spiritual awakening remains as necessary now as it was in the past. The dogmatic creeds preached by the religious have served their primary purpose. Mankind is no longer an iliterate child, needing a scribe to read from a text and instruct him on how to behave. The means of how we go about it have to change with the times. Ancient spiritual exercises, drills, and mind-altering drugs. used by the orginal adepts thousands of years ago have re-surfaced in this New Age. The drug culture of the 60's and 70's initiated a resurgeance of spiritual angst. Tens of millons of moderns are now seriously engaged in meditation and yoga techniques designed to bring about spiritual enlightenment.

Spiritual enlightennent is an intensely subjective experience. What we are finding is that no two inspirations regarding the relationship between man and God are ever quite alike. So what is the New Age revelation? What is happening? How do we find a balance between Science and Spirit? Between analysis and intuition? Btetween the left brain and the right brain? How are male and female able to halt the drift towards divorce?

The Piscine Age that began with the parable of cleansing of sin via The Flood has ended. The Aquarian Age of breathing fresh air into tired souls has begun. What is the New Age Testament to be?

The good news is that science has finally moved from the phsyical to the metaphsyical. Nuclear theory has shown that matter is an illsuion. That its a condensed form of energy. So, in sub-atomic reality, the Universe is invisible.

If we are all radiant expressions of atomic energy, who then is God?

I have tried to answer this for myself in my Psyche-Genetic theory.

If God is a vast universe of radiant atomic energy.and that energy can and does express consciousness.
Then God must be Consciousness
Thus the interperation of the Scriptures that man and god are separate beings is wrong.
Mankind, together with everything else in the universe are all conscious expressions
of a God who is omniscent
And the nature of that universal source of conscious beingness is predominantly Divinely good and orderly, eternally evolving towards higher states of ecstatic self-awarness, with an element of randomness that makes the process dynamic.

You are at liberty to interpret my personal inspiration anyway you prefer.

Better still, travel into your own spiritual desert and fast for forty days as you hunt for the your own magic lamp. Don't let another forty years of spiritual emptiness be stolen from you. And when you rub the dust off your soul and the genie appears: Tell him, like Solomon did, that all you want is wisdom. Who knows? Open Sesame! What hidden teasures lie waiting inside you.
