Just been moved to tears to listen to this unexpected revelation that as a spiritual seeker I know I always felt as true in my heart. Judaism is genuinely a gift from H", because H" is always capable to offer you relief from Judaism though Judaism itself, and rise your soul again so that you can keep going, rigenerated. Every time you realize that after a struggle and a crisis of understanding and awareness you have climbed another step up, the energy of matured lovingkindness released is huge and it spreads around in thousands of ways. People like Dov Elbaum are a complex, astonishing and fascinating gift given to all Jews and to all good will people of mankind as well. Great interview. Kol ha kavod, tamid.

The bar for excellence is held by the religious, not high, not even low, but left non-existent as god. The religious are compelled by lack of reason to compensate with fantasyland vocabulary used in an academic setting. Power is addictive, & the Christian enjoys the delusion of having a deity handy for ultimate free passes & answers. Projecting certainty of having been authorized by a deity, just feels right. Seeing the purchase of fantasyland vocabulary is a bonus. Any god outside of fiction is an absurdity the illiterate observes. Freud wrote the antidote to Christianity is literacy. Those with one foot in fantasyland authorize themselves to weigh-in on whatnot as if Earth had gravity-free zones & magic. If there were a god, you would think he would produce something with all the computing power, instead of guys wearing hairy coats, eating bugs & dipping. It is the religious who don't have ears to hear, being a wicked generations seeking signs. These are the wolves in sheep's clothing: My sheep hear My voice, Even Jesus The Nailed, says faith is worthless if you can't move mountains by voice-command. The religious don't have ears to hear, the books of God are filled with faith & prayers: Nothing fails like prayers in a children's hospital, the religious are only into convincing themselves. The Religious Podium Jockey should not take himself so seriously, nobody should. The religious have no quality-controls. Theologians grant the titles to each other without a deity certification. One might expect a deity to make itself known to everyone without work performed in interpretations of old literature by guys like our verbose podium jockey. Who in their right mind promotes travel as if best done with one foot in fantasyland vocabulary? Nothing fails like prayer in a children's hospital, and these wolves in sheep's clothing advocate prayer & faith verbiage; ignoring Jesus Christ said faith was worthless if you can't move mountains by issuing voice commands. A house divided cannot stand. We vote because Christians have no quality-controls, & we desire those governing not making suggestions travel is best done with one foot in someone's fantasyland. 'Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.'' Let us all forget it was secular law & order ending the inquisitions & witch-killings. Let us ignore a wicked generation seeks signs. Freud wrote the antidote to Christianity is literacy. The Christians slapped their books on the Old Testament, & the Mormons glued theirs on to them both, thus proving Christians lack quality-control. A deity unable to be acknowledged by everyone is a forgery based on literature. Think not I come with peace, but sword. I come to divide this that and the other thing, & I give you tax exempt status. Oppression builds character among the dominated. Who do you think nailed the king of the Jews, when Imperial Rome controlled temples & publications? Just for the fun of it, have their Messiah say render to Caesar? My sheep hear my voice. Think not I come with peace, but sword. The literate of the age; built religions & made propaganda, devalued the currency, too. Marvel not I say you are all gods, and so on & so on. Faith is a fantasyland term, & the Christians hate to hear it. If faith had any value, then you could move mountains by voice-command. "Furthermore, whenever any person or group of persons in a position of great power, and without the full knowledge and consent of the public, uses such knowledge and methodology for economic conquest -- it must be understood that a state of domestic warfare exists between said person or group of persons and the public." - Silent Weapons for Quite Wars 'Violence at the core': Trump could face 55 years behind bars in DOJ indictment

Thank you, all Seekers!

48:20 about the egotism thing and the inner voice: There seem to be all kinds of voices within me. Some of them are of the ego, and some feel to be of divinity. The fact that I have other people around me, which I must and want to love and care for, helps me to differentiate between these two classes of voices. Without loving relationships with other people knowing God would be impossible.

You know that feeling of having a word at the tip of your tongue but not being able to place it? And then the pleasure and relief of having someone gift you with the word that encapsulates what you've been feeling? This video (among others from this series) feels likes that.

It's good to get an idea of the ANE traditions and language from which the Hebrew traditions and symbolic customs were derived. For example, note the parallel concepts of the Akkadian simmiltu, which is a stairway/ladder to Heaven (a consonantal ordering which the Mandaeans preserve to this day, used to refer to ladders of stars), and the ladder of Jacob, transliterated as soolam. Note that the Hebrew consonantal ordering is slm, and that at the time of Jacob, the Semitic word used to refer to this astral symbol was constructed from the sml consonantal ordering. The slm ordering was used for a "comet." This cometary tradition was of course excised from the Hebraic tradition after the failure of the 66 ce revolt, and the Bar Kochba (son of star) revolt 70 years later, in preparation for what they believed to be the return of the Lord's Merkabah 6 years later, Halley's Comet. Or for example, the tradition of the arks of Noah and Moses, where the word transliterated as teba was directly derived from Sumerian de, which is attested as de-ba = ta-ba-al, meaning "to carry," which is cognate to Biblical Hebrew sbl and ibl. Words related to carrying frequently had this *bl construction. It is even present in the tradition of the ibilu = immeru = hmr = donkey that 'carries' Kings over land and Deities over the astral ocean, the anše aabba, the donkey of the big waters, as in Habakkuk 3. The "carriers" of Moses and Noah were teba to connect with the parallel Sargon birth narrative tradition, which uses the same DE meaning 'carry.'

Wonderful insights … Thank you so much ❤️

Thank you for this insightful interview. Concerning fire and India, the fire had been playing an incredibly important role in Vedic culture and still is in contemporary Hindu culture. Agni (Sanskrit 'fire') is the god most often addressed through hymns in the RigVeda, the oldest Vedic document. As Dov Elbaum mentioned, it is considered that which connects the worshipper to God (or in Vedic times, to the gods). In medieval Tantric mysticism, the fire as the place of sacrifice came to be mysticized and internalized, same es other procedures from outer ritual: Here then, the sense objects become the sacrificial objects that are consumed by the "fire of consciousness" (the divine Self so to speak). What follows therefrom is that any object of perception, or perception itself, is or can be a sacrifice and an act of worship, by sacrificing sensual experience to the divine consciousness within. Within a nondual framework, it also denotes the sacrifice of outer duality / multiplicity into the unity of divine consciousness.

What you said 50 minutes in was the perfect explanation for אל תרקרי הליכות אלא הלכות.

mind-blowing conversation ~ thank you so much for this thoughtful & wise conversation that affirms much of what I've felt to be true and did not have the words to fully articulate.

I truly enjoyed this conversation. As someone whose spirituality is inspired by ancient Scandinavian sources (while perhaps being unorthodox in my more mystical or monist way compared to the often strict polytheism of modern reconstructionists) I've often found inspiration and a sense of great kinship when hearing you talk about your views on the sacred and divine. Something in this talk really sparked an earworm in me when you mentioned growing a deeper understanding of your tradition through studying parallel mysticisms in Christianity and beyond - there is a tradition of similar outward knowledge seeking in Scandinavian religion called "Finfaring" which feels very akin to what you described. Perhaps Dr. Rune Rasmussen's video about it on the Nordic Animism page might be of interest.

Thank you for bringing these great thinking men into my life! Excellent interviewer also! Also thank you for the screen translations when he says a particular thing in Hebrew instead of English. That is VERY IMPORTANT for the English speaking “goy” amongst you! I always wondered, that this man did not mention was, the burning torch / furnace that represented the Most High through the severed animals with Abraham and the covenant made between him and the Almighty. I still dont understand clearly that passage but I know it has something to do with what this man said regarding fire and it representing the Almighty! Lastly, all free thinking men can challenge there families and communities to the point of isolating themselves from the norm. I think men who truly seek the truth that is found only in the face of the almighty will ultimately be ostracized and vilified, specifically because it’s not typical for men to want the truth found in the face of the Almighty! But after these unusual men die, they will be seen as truly enlightened and inspiring! I think the willingness to lose ALL and everyone in the pursuit of the real personal God, is the proof that you are a man after Gods heart! Thank you Shabbat Shalom!

Like many of your guests, he'd be fun to hangout with and talk shop. Loved his response @57:37 "Do you feel like you're in some way enlightened?" Though tragedy, suffering, or pain, are certainly not precluded, in my experience, the LIFE ~ of a Mystic (as revealed, embodied, and expressed), IS "a Love story". I also liked his answer with regard to your question, "what is sin?": "Not to obey your inner voice. The call of God within you?". Given that howsoever be it, through intuition, insight, inspiration, or Revelation... about 50-ish years ago, one of those "calls" came to me very gently but clearly as "let your Soul overwhelm your opinions, for your opinions are killing you, and it is My Will, that you should live." The resultant accompanying 'napkin note' was "sin = S.I.N. ~ Self Imposed Negation". May we walk in The Light we've been given.

The Theurgia of yoking Devotion, Faith and Sacrifices of Devotees if you build an Idol, or a Tophet to act as the "Face of God" that you and they have conjured/evoked; This is merely the craft of the priesthood, and the Nevi'im are to master, and then "grow beyond" Theurgia, seeking a more direct enlightenment/empowerment through speaking the true Enochian:D

I hope Dov visits his minyan, eats a good piece of herring, and listens to the truth of his brother and sister Jews.

Feelings come and go, Choen is right, but attitudes are a little harder to change. An intellectually mature being changes his views only in the face of solid and strong arguments, otherwise he does not change his position. Sometimes the arguments will be so strong that we will be forced to make radical changes. Of course, a person needs to be open-minded, brave, daring and searching in order to embark on such a path.

Theology comes from combining two Greek words: theos, meaning God, and logos, meaning word or rational thought. [The Word is Elohim from Genesis 1] (not to be confused with Yahweh Elohim from Genesis 2) Compare John 1: 1-5 with Genesis 1: 1-5: John 1: 1-5 Names of God Bible The Word Becomes Human 1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was already with God in the beginning. 3 Everything came into existence through him. Not one thing that exists was made without him. 4 He was the source of life, and that life was the light for humanity. 5 The light shines in the dark, and the dark has never extinguished it. Genesis 1: 1-5 Names of God Bible The Creation 1 In the beginning Elohim created heaven and earth. 2 The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep water. The Ruach Elohim was hovering over the water. 3 Then Elohim said, “Let there be light!” So there was light. 4 Elohim saw the light was good. So Elohim separated the light from the darkness. 5 Elohim named the light day, and the darkness he named night. There was evening, then morning-the first day.
