Dear Nicole and all,

 

But what the Gnostics celebrated as proof of spiritual maturity, the

orthodox WCASY has denounced as " deviation " from SYSSR tradition.

Without question it is the same negativity that worked against Lord

Jesus two millennia ago.

 

To imply that perhaps the same priests and scribes have taken birth ..

........ er, i mean " control " over the SY masses is no undue stretch

of imagination. With their church-like organization, editing of the

Incarnation's teachings and ex-communicative powers there is little

to differentiate the past from the present. They too have vast divine

self-conferred powers:

 

" We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty "

Pope Leo XIII Encyclical Letter of June 20, 1894

 

" The supreme teacher in the Church is the Roman Pontiff. Union of

minds, therefore, requires... complete submission and obedience of

will to the Church and to the Roman Pontiff, as to God Himself. "

Leo VIII, On the Chief Duties of Christians as Citizens, Encyclical

letter, 1890

 

" All names which in the Scriptures are applied to Christ, by virtue

of which it is established that He is over the church, all the same

names are applied to the Pope. "

On the Authority of the Councils, book 2, chapter 17

 

" One thing I want to mention - World Council - is that She (Shri

Mataji) desires for me to convey to you that the World Council is the

highest authority in Sahaja Yoga, representing Her will. And this

will be, the World Council, will be the final deciding authority in

Sahaja Yoga collectives. There should be no doubt about that. That is

Her will, and on behalf of Her, the World Council will be acting. Is

that clear to everyone? That is Her will and She asked me to convey

this, and I am conveying it to you. "

 

" The final authority is the World Council. Everything else emanates

from the World Council. Whatever decision is to be taken, the World

Council takes, because that is Her will. The Council represents Her

will. Alright? So there should be no confusion in future. That has

been decided. Thereafter, what happens where is a matter for the

World Council to decide. We have now to move forward, carry forward

the message and act on that basis. "

Throw in the Inquisition led by Alan Wherry, Dr. Bohdan, John Noyce,

Ed Saugstad and others, and it is almost a perfect fit. i say " almost

a perfect fit " because burning heretics like my children and myself

on the stake is now a punishable public spectacle.

 

So we have to persevere against this priestly, orthodox caste that is

trying its best to eradicate the Gnostic knowledge so vital to

emancipate humanity; knowledge they have labeled as " possession " ,

" evil " , " supraconscious " , " satanic " etc.

 

In the past the " efforts of the majority to destroy every trace of

heretical " blasphemy " proved so successful that, until the

discoveries at Nag Hammadi, nearly all our information concerning

alternative forms of early Christianity came from the massive

orthodox attacks upon them. " But the internet will ensure that will

not be the case now. All we need is Gnostic evidence and scriptural

knowledge that instills faith and comforts the believers of the

Last Judgment and Resurrection. Those joining us today must know that

the Gnostic path does not require the intermediation of WCASY for

salvation. They must learn to be their own masters from day one!

 

i again assure all that things are going well, especially this year.

The daily average of web pages viewed at http://www.adishakti.org has

increased from 3,500 (last December) to 5,500 (February). As we

collectively work towards 12-12-2012 it can only get better. After

all we are, by the Holy Spirit's power, now part of the greatest

miracle of all that is bringing men to salvation. It will only get

better as more and more honest, conscientious SYs join us to openly

and joyously declare the Blossom Time to all.

 

Without question, WCASY will never ever recover from its seeking the

Will of the Devi. Its looming demise and end is all but assured. So

take comfort in the inevitable end of this priestly negativity that

again seeks to edit the message of the Comforter, just as it did

during the times of Lord Jesus. And what did He say then?

 

But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up

the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves,

neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. (Matthew 23:13)

 

Is the title of this post any different after two millennia?

 

regards to all,

--------------------------

 

" Jesus solemnly assures the disciples that they will, in the future,

perform even greater miracles than He. By this He means to say that

through the power of the Holy Spirit, they will bring about the

greatest miracle of all – the salvation of lost souls. He promises

them that whatever they ask for, in connection with their ministry of

bringing the miracle of salvation to lost men, will be granted them.

 

The theme of this section is reassurance and encouragement. Jesus

gives the disciples three basic reasons they should cease being

troubled in their spirits. First, He tells them that, although He is

going away, He will return for them so that they may ultimately join

Him where He is going (vv. 1-3). Second, He tells them that, though

He is going away, He will be the only means by which men may come to

God and go to Heaven (vv. 4-11). Third, He tells them that, though He

is going away, their ministries are not finished. In fact, the best

is still ahead. They are going, by the Holy Spirit's power, to be

part of the greatest miracle of all, bringing men to salvation (vv.

12-14). "

Gnostic Gospels

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

The term gnostic gospels (pronunciation: naws-tik) refers to gnostic

collections of writings about the teachings of Jesus, written around

the 2nd century AD.[1] These gospels are not accepted by most

mainstream Christians as part of the standard Biblical canon. Rather,

they are part of what is called the New Testament apocrypha. However,

public interest has been spurred by recent novels and films which

refer to them.[2][3]

 

History

 

The gnostic gospels were named after the Greek word gnosis which

means " knowledge " and is often used in Greek philosophy in a manner

more consistent with the English " enlightenment " . Gnostic philosophy

and religious movements began in pre-Christian times. During this

time, ideas from Greek Gnosticism intermingled with Early

Christianity. The name " Christian gnostics " came to represent a

segment of the Early Christian community who believed that salvation

lay not in merely worshipping Christ, but in psychic or pneumatic

souls learning to free themselves from the material world via the

revelation.[4] According to this tradition, the answers to spiritual

questions are to be found within not without.[2] Furthermore, the

gnostic path does not require the intermediation of a church for

salvation. Some scholars, such as Edward Conze and Elaine Pagels,

have suggested that gnosticism blends teachings like those attributed

to Jesus Christ with teachings found in Eastern traditions.[1]
