For many years i had been disturbed by the violent and murderous nature of this biblical god till i read the article below, and my mind laid to rest. Since Jesus is always with, and meditating on, the Divine Mother it was really very comforting. There is so much the Comforter has enlightened, both within and without, and brought to remembrance all that Jesus required. Today, February 15, 2008, i cannot explain how massive the ever cresting tidal wave of truth is. All i can say is that its sheer weight is enough to pulverize all falsehood in its path, reducing religious organizations to their foundations, scouring and smashing into smithereens centuries of their false teachings, dogma and indoctrination. But i feel that many of you here are still unable to grasp the sheer size and power of this tidal wave that the Adi Shakti has unleashed. (As far as SYSSR SYs are concerned, the majority are not even aware that Shri Mataji has done so. However, i am very confident that one day they will hear about it and witness it for themselves.) Probably the only way will be to read all the articles on the sites and forum, and remember the different topics that are covered. Perhaps over time you may be able to finally see the entire height, breath, depth and, most important of all, the direction of this tidal wave of Truth that the Comforter triggered in order to bring forth the emancipation of the human race. It is beyond anything we humans have ever witnessed! There is a very deep reason i emphasized " the direction " of this tidal wave of Truth. That direction cannot be pointed but only realized. regards to all, jagbir " Yet all the sources cited so far — secret gospels, revelations, mystical teachings — are among those not included in the select list that constitutes the New Testament collection. Every one of the secret texts which the gnostic groups revered was omitted from the canonical collection, and branded as heretical by those who called themselves orthodox Christians. By the time the process of sorting the various writings ended — probably as late as the year 200 — virtually all the feminine imagery for God had disappeared from Orthodox Christian tradition. What was the reason for this total rejection? The gnostics themselves asked this question of their orthodox opponents and pondered it among themselves. Some concluded that the God of Israel himself initiated the polemics which his followers carried out in his name. For, they argued, this creator was a derivative, merely instrumental power whom the Mother had created to administer the universe, but his own self- conception was far more grandiose. They say that he believed that he had made everything by himself, but that, in reality, he had created the world because Wisdom, his Mother, " infused him with energy " and implanted him her own ideas. But he was foolish, and acted unconsciously, unaware that the ideas came from her; " he was even ignorant of his own Mother. " 45 Followers of Valentus suggested that the Mother Herself had encouraged the God of Israel to think that he was acting autonomously, but, as they explain, " It was because he was foolish and ignorant of his mother that he said, " I am God; there is none beside me. " 46 According to another account, the creator caused his Mother to grieve by creating inferior beings, so she left him alone and withdrew to the upper regions of the heavens. " Since she had departed, he imagined that he was only being in existence; and therefore he declared, " I am a jealous God, and beside me there is no one.' " 47 Others agree in attributing this more sinister motive — jealousy. According to the Secret Book of John: .... he said ... " I am a jealous God, and there is no other God beside me. " But by announcing this he indicated to the angels ... that another God does exist; for if there were no other one, of whom would he be jealous? 48 ... Others declared that his Mother refused to tolerate such presumption: [The creator], became arrogant in spirit, boasted himself over all those things that were below him, and exclaimed, " I am father, and God, and above me there is no one. " But his mother, hearing him speak thus, cried out against him, " Do not lie, Ialdabaoth... " 49 Often, in these gnostic texts, the creator is castigated for his arrogance — nearly always by a superior feminine power. " (45. Hippolythus, Ref 6.33; 46.
