From the Dead Sea Scrolls
A text belonging to the Instructor, who is to enlighten and teach all the Sons of Light about the character and fate of humankind: all their spiritual varieties with accompanying signs, all their deeds generation by generation, and their visitation for afflictions together with eras of peace.
All that is now and ever shall be originates with the God of knowledge. Before things come to be, He has ordered all their designs, so that when they do come to exist—at their appointed times as ordained by His glorious plan—they fulfill their destiny, a destiny impossible to change. He controls the laws governing all things, and He provides for all their pursuits.
He created humankind to rule over the world, appointing for them two spirits in which to walk until the time ordained for His visitation. There are the spirits of truth and falsehood. Upright character and fate originate with the Habitation of Light; perverse, with the Fountain of Darkness. The authority of the Prince of Light extends to the governance of all righteous people; therefore, they walk in the paths of light. Correspondingly, the authority of the Angel of Darkness embraces the governance of all wicked people, so they walk in the paths of darkness.
The authority of the Angel of Darkness further extends to the corruption of all the righteous. All their sins, iniquities, shameful and rebellious deeds are at his prompting, a situation God in His mysteries allows to continue until His era dawns. Moreover, all the afflictions of the righteous, and every trial in its season, occur because of this Angel’s diabolic rule. All the spirits allied with him share but a single resolve: to cause the Sons of Light to stumble.
Yet the God of Israel (and the Angel of His Truth) assist all the Sons of Light. It is actually He who created the spirits of Light and darkness, making them cornerstone of every deed, their impulses and premise of every action. God’s love for one spirit lasts forever. He will be pleased with its actions for always. The counsel of the other, however, He abhors, hating its every impulse for all time.
Upon Earth their operations are these: one enlightens a man’s mind, marking straight before him the paths of true righteousness and causing his heart to fear the laws of God. This spirit engenders humility, patience, abundant compassion, perpetual goodness, insight, understanding, and powerful wisdom resonating to each of God’s deeds, sustained by His constant faithfulness. It engenders a spirit knowledgeable in every plan of action, zealous for the laws of righteousness, holy in its thoughts, and steadfast in purpose. This spirit encourages plenteous compassion upon all who hold fast to truth, and glorious purity combined with visceral hatred of impurity in its every guise. It results in humble deportment allied with a general discernment, concealing the truth, that is, the mysteries of knowledge. To these ends is the earthly counsel of the spirit to those whose nature yearns for truth.
Through a gracious visitation all who walk in this spirit will know healing, bountiful peace, long life and multiple progeny, followed by eternal blessings and perpetual joy through life everlasting. They will receive a crown of glory with a robe of honor, resplendent forever and ever.
The operations of the spirit of falsehood result in greed, neglect of righteous deeds, wickedness, lying, pride, and haughtiness, cruel deceit and fraud, massive hypocrisy, a want of self-control and abundant foolishness, a zeal for manifestation, a reviling tongue, blind eyes, deaf ears, stiff neck, and hard heart—to the end of walking in all the ways of darkness and evil cunning.
The judgment of all who walk in such ways will be multiple afflictions of God’s furious vengeance, never-ending terror and reproach for all eternity, with a shameful extinction in the fire of Hell’s outer darkness. For all evil, and dark happenstance, until their utter destruction with neither remnant nor rescue.
The struggle for good and evil, and good’s ultimate triumph.
The character and fate of all humankind reside with these spirits. All the hosts of humanity, generation by generation, are heirs to these spiritual divisions, walking according to their ways; the outworking of every deed inheres in these divisions according to each person’s spiritual heritage, whether great or small, for every age of eternity. God has appointed these spirits as equals until the last age, and set an everlasting enmity between their divisions. False deeds are thus an abomination to the truth, whereas all the ways of truth are for perversity equally a disgrace. Fierce dispute attends every point of decision, for they can never agree. In his mysterious insight and glorious wisdom God has countenanced an era in which perversity triumphs, but at the time appointed for visitation He shall destroy such forever.
Then shall truth come forth in victory upon the earth. Sullied by wicked ways while perversity rules, at the time of the appointed judgment truth shall be decreed. By His truth God shall then purify all human deeds, and refine some of humanity so as to extinguish every perverse spirit from the inward parts of the flesh, cleansing from every wicked deed by a holy spirit. Like purifying waters, he shall sprinkle each with a spirit of truth, effectual against all the abominations of lying and sullying by an unclean spirit. Thereby He shall give the upright insight into knowledge of the Most High and wisdom of the angels, making wise those following the perfect way. Indeed, God has chosen them for an eternal covenant; all the glory of Adam shall be theirs alone. Perversity shall be extinct, every fraudulent deed put to shame.
Until now the spirits of truth and perversity have contended within the human heart. All people walk in both wisdom and foolishness. As is a person’s endowment of truth and righteousness, so shall he hate perversity; conversely, in proportion to bequest in the lot of evil, one will act wickedly and abominate truth. God has appointed these spirits as equals until the time of decree and renewal. He foreknows the outworking of their deeds for all the ages of eternity. He has granted them dominion over humanity, so imparting knowledge of good and evil, deciding the fate of every living being by the measure of which spirit predominates in him, until the day of the appointed visitation.

McClard restores a "lost transmission" by interlocking five key elements—posture, breath, attention, identity, and service—into a unified circuit known as the Threefold Path. This path consists of Meditation (the subtractive process of emptying the mind), Contemplation (the active process of filling the consciousness with higher truths), and Service (the essential outward flow of virtue). The book emphasizes that without service, meditation collapses into mere self-absorption. Within this framework, the act of "sitting" is treated as the first initiation into the "Center," where the body’s posture serves as a metaphysical crossroads and a temple for spiritual alignment.
The narrative contends that while modern minds often seek the "fruit" of quick information, ancient masters provided "seeds"—symbols and metaphors—meant to be cracked open through disciplined practice. To facilitate this, McClard includes a practical 30-day challenge involving dietary discipline, media silence, and dedicated sitting to "starve out" fear and mental noise. This process is designed to trigger Anamnesis, the recollection of forgotten divine knowledge, moving the practitioner from intellectual concept to lived enlightenment.
Ultimately, "SIT" serves as a traveler’s map back to a center we never truly left. It reveals the "final secret" that awareness is universal; the same light looking out of your eyes is looking through all others, making compassion the only sane response to reality. By aligning one's sense of self with inherent divine qualities, the book offers a vision where inner stillness births the global unity the world desperately seeks. It is an invitation to stop seeking and start being, transforming ordinary life into a continuous state of wakefulness and grace.
Once you reach the inner mystery (other side of the stream), the boat that got you there can be set free (lesser mystery outside you). Religion is a pointer to this true kingdom of inner light and true life, free from the judgment and fear of the former way of seeing the world. Jesus came for the sick, not the well. When you have discovered who he is in you, the illusion vanishes. Here's why:
The Bible can be read like a koan: not merely a book of doctrines, but a psychological teaching-device designed to short-circuit the mind’s favorite addictions—certainty, superiority, and blame. On the surface, the text seems to pit the “righteous” against the “wicked,” stacking up law, wrath, punishment, and moral score-keeping. But that’s the hook. The deeper move is that the story keeps tightening the paradox until every comfortable foothold collapses: the reader can’t stay cleanly on one side without eventually discovering the same violence, accusation, and pride inside their own heart. The Bible, read this way, doesn’t resolve the tension—it uses it to break the spell of self-righteousness.
To make this arc visible, we read the narrative as the interior history of the human being: characters as personified forces within the psyche. Elohim in Genesis 1 is the ground of creative Love—the Source. Then the tone shifts: Yahweh emerges as the egoic mode that asserts, judges, and rules, while Satan functions as the accuser—conscience turned adversary, prosecuting the self and “others.” The Old Testament becomes the long, exhausting reign of this inner courtroom: fear-driven law, identity defended by exclusion, blood as the language of control. And the genius of the “koan” is that it doesn’t let you stand outside it. If you condemn the characters, you strengthen the very ego-pattern the story is exposing.
Then the New Testament hits like the punchline you didn’t want: the same “I Am” returns, but now as Jesus—Adam reborn as a human being, humble, embodied, and under pressure. In the desert, the ego’s final offer is domination—kingdoms, authority, rule—and Jesus refuses, choosing the only kingdom that matters: the interior one where accusation dies. On the cross, wrath “repents” into love; the old lord yields to the Father as Love; and what remains isn’t a better moral mask but a different nature entirely—compassion that arises when the mind stops keeping score. The Bible’s hidden teaching, in this reading, is the end of seeking: when judgment burns out, Love stands there—already true, already home.
Relax if you have moved away from Religion toward your Inner Spiritual kingdom. This is the very path that allows you to truly serve the larger Self we all are. Roll the stone away and bring Love out to the world. After a bit of isolation in the inner love of the heart, it will shine! The isolation and shadow work you do to awaken is necessary. Once complete, you are integrated into the true goodness for all sentient beings. The Koan has conquered the true enemy and completion has arrived. Read all of 1 Corinthians 13 with open eyes. Perfected Love remains.
Why do I use all religious and philosophical traditions in my work, books, music and writing? The answer is simple: If I were to judge any of them, I lose the value in all of them. The blessing of Genesis 9 is known as the water covenant. Unlike all other covenants in the Bible, this one was given freely. No strings attached. As you will see from my writing, I take all traditions to show that they all speak the same mystery. Once you realize you have been born again in baptism (incarnation) and hang on a cross (body), the symbolism of why you are here today is then realized in the final chapter of the Mystery found in the Bible. But, each religion holds a strand of the Rainbow's light. The entire reason Jacob gave Joseph the multicolored robe was this very purpose. The complete teachings of all nations were given to Joseph so his mission in Egypt could be fulfilled. This is the rainbow by symbolism. All nations are blessed by God--none of them widowed (the Father with them all).
To me, the refusal to judge a tradition isn’t a polite neutrality—it’s a spiritual discipline. The moment I appoint myself curator of what counts as “true,” I shrink the world down to the size of my own preference, and the living radiance in every path gets filtered into a private museum. Genesis 9 names something I’ve come to trust at the level of bone: the water covenant is mercy without bargaining, a vow written into reality itself—gift before merit, sky-wide assurance before any tribe can build a fence around it. That’s why I keep returning to the rainbow: not as sentimental decoration, but as a map of wholeness. Each tradition is a lens that catches a different frequency; if I smash the lens I dislike, I don’t get “purer light”—I get less light.
My work—books, music, writing—keeps tracing the same mystery through many costumes because the mystery is older than the costumes. I read scripture as a living interior drama as much as a historical record: the divine name, the ego’s hunger to rule, the accuser’s sharp conscience, the perfect son and the fallen son, the humble man who wakes up inside the story, and the risen life that isn’t an escape from the body but its transfiguration. “Born again” isn’t only a religious password; it’s the recognition that incarnation is already baptismal—spirit plunged into form—so the cross is not just an artifact of one faith but the daily geometry of being human: vertical longing and horizontal limitation intersecting in flesh. When that symbolism lands, you start seeing the same pattern everywhere: death-and-rebirth myths, liberation paths, yogic awakenings, prophetic reversals, sutras of emptiness, hymns of union—each one naming, in its dialect, the passage from possessed life to offered life.
And when I say they “all speak the same mystery,” I don’t mean they are identical on the surface; I mean they rhyme in the deep places where the Unwritten becomes individuated—where the primordial wisdom writes itself as you without losing its oneness. The world can feel like a slow simulation, a storehouse of forms that rearrange with lag, but the invariant artisan beneath it responds instantly; the real art is learning to read the emergent patterns returning from the parts, not endlessly trying to redesign the whole. In that sense the rainbow is also a mirror: I’m gathering strands so others can notice the single light passing through them, and to remember the strange law I keep finding everywhere—light surpasses darkness when it does: time. Not by force, not by domination, but by the quiet, unwavering pressure of awakening that refuses to oscillate into reaction—only resonance—until the many colors recognize themselves as one brightness.
In the end, we are all in the situation Jesus found himself in before the true God and Father of creation:
Hebrews 5
7 During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. 8 Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered 9 and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him 10 and was designated by God to be high priest in the order of Melchizedek.
There are many heroes in the Bible, but only one that was perfect all the time, and I'm not afraid to say it. Perfect love casts out all fear and judgment (1 John 4).
Mark 10:18 - “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone"
Very soon, man will discover that Light has the same streaming encoded information as DNA. Light quanta is quantum information, or formed within. Line, Branch and Fold. This is the structure of the Tree of Life.
Note to reader: Am I a Buddhist? Hindu? Taoist? Christian? Yes. The Religion of the Heart is a lover of all God's nations and religions. Judge not. The full understanding comes from the Rainbow of nations, and all generations are blessed with God's wisdom (Genesis 9). Value all of humanity or you only know in part. Completion comes with a robe of many colors. Feed the people!
A bit of explanation to the 10 worlds / dimensions.
Most people read the Bible as history, doctrine, prophecy, or morality. All of those approaches have value, yet there is another way of reading the text that has quietly accompanied the great mystical traditions for centuries. What if the Bible is also the story of the human interior? What if its greatest characters are not only historical figures but living symbols describing the journey of consciousness itself?
Every enduring story functions this way. The greatest narratives are never merely about someone else. They become mirrors in which we recognize ourselves. The hero, the villain, the guide, the deceiver, the king, and the fool all reveal dimensions of our own inner life. The Bible may be the most profound example of this kind of story ever written.
Read through this lens, Scripture becomes more than a collection of disconnected books. It unfolds as one continuous narrative describing humanity's movement from innocence, through division and conflict, toward reconciliation and mature love. The story is no longer only about ancient people; it becomes the story of every person.
This symbolic reading does not require abandoning history or theology. Rather, it adds another dimension. Just as a parable speaks on more than one level, the biblical narrative can be understood simultaneously as history, theology, and interior psychology. The outer story remains intact while revealing an inner landscape that has always been present beneath the surface.
Within this framework, the major figures of Scripture begin to resemble personified movements of the soul.
Elohim, introduced in Genesis 1, represents the eternal Source—the Father, creative Love itself. Adam stands as humanity in its original image, the temple through which divine life is expressed. As the story unfolds, another figure emerges: Yahweh. Rather than viewing Yahweh only as a theological character, this interpretive framework invites us to consider him as the dramatic image of the self that separates, judges, rules, and learns through consequence. The accuser, called Satan or the Devil, becomes the voice of condemnation and inner indictment that inevitably accompanies a divided self. Jesus then appears as humanity awakened within its own condition, while Christ represents humanity restored to its intended unity with the Father.
Seen together, these figures form a single narrative arc.
Human innocence gives way to self-consciousness. Self-consciousness becomes judgment. Judgment gives birth to accusation. Accusation leads to suffering. Through suffering comes humility. Through humility comes love. Through love comes reconciliation.
The remarkable possibility is that this arc describes not only the life of Jesus but the unfolding life of every human being.
This perspective also casts new light on the transition between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2. Genesis opens with Elohim creating through abundance, blessing, and shared image: "Let us make humanity in our image." The emphasis is unity. Creation is declared good before any division appears. When the narrative shifts to Yahweh, however, the story becomes intensely personal. Boundaries appear. Commands appear. Consequences appear. The human experience of separation begins.
Whether one reads these chapters historically or symbolically, they introduce two distinct movements within the story: the original unity of being and the lived experience of individuation. The human journey unfolds between these two realities.
This reading naturally reframes the life of Jesus. Luke traces his genealogy all the way back to "Adam, the son of God." That ending is more than genealogy. It quietly connects the entire biblical narrative into one family story. Jesus is not introduced as an isolated miracle but as the continuation—and completion—of Adam's journey.
In John's Gospel, Jesus declares, "Before Abraham was, I AM." Rather than hearing only a claim to divinity, we might also hear the culmination of a long narrative. The one who once revealed himself through law now reveals himself through self-giving love. The same voice that once spoke from the mountain now speaks from within the human condition itself. The journey has moved from command to compassion, from external authority to interior transformation.
The cross becomes the turning point of the entire story. Instead of reading it only as a legal transaction, we may also understand it as the place where fear, judgment, and separation are surrendered to the Father. Hebrews tells us that the Son "learned obedience through what he suffered." Learning belongs to experience. Experience belongs to incarnation. The cross is therefore not simply an instrument of death; it becomes the symbol of every human life in which love gradually overcomes fear.
From this perspective, the kingdom Jesus proclaims is not primarily political. It is interior. The temptation in the wilderness is not merely an ancient event but the perpetual temptation to rule through power rather than love. Every generation faces the same choice. Every heart becomes its own wilderness.
When viewed this way, the Bible begins to resemble a single living drama. Adam, Yahweh, the Accuser, Jesus, and Christ cease to be isolated theological categories and become stages in the maturation of the human soul. The story moves from image to ego, from ego to repentance, from repentance to union, and from union to love.
This is why the climax of the New Testament is so simple. "God is love." Perfect love casts out fear because fear belongs to the divided self, while love belongs to the undivided Father. The entire biblical narrative, read as one continuous arc, describes the gradual restoration of that original unity.
Perhaps that is why the story continues to speak across centuries. We recognize ourselves within it. The characters are not merely people from long ago. They are voices within us. The journey is not only theirs. It is ours.
And perhaps that has been the invitation all along—not merely to believe the story, but to discover that we are living it.
Perhaps the greatest obstacle to reading Scripture as one continuous interior narrative is the apparent contrast between the Lord of the Old Testament and the Jesus of the New Testament. One appears to judge through wrath, blood, and separation. The other teaches mercy, forgiveness, and love of enemies. For many readers, these seem to require two entirely different portraits of God.
This symbolic reading suggests another possibility.
What if the Bible is not presenting multiple Lords, but one Lord moving through a single narrative of maturation?
If the Bible is the story of humanity made in God's image, then its central characters may also represent successive stages in the awakening of that image. Rather than competing identities, they become movements within one unfolding life.
The narrative unfolds as a progression:
Adam Pure — humanity in its original image, innocent and undivided.
Adam Fallen — humanity experiencing separation, limitation, and mortality.
Yahweh (EGO) — the self governing through law, judgment, fear, and consequence; the ego learning by its own measures.
The Accuser (Satan) — the internal voice of condemnation that inevitably follows judgment. The prosecutor created wherever division exists.
Jesus — the humbled kinsman who enters fully into the human condition, learning obedience through suffering while revealing the Father's heart.
Christ — humanity restored to complete union with the Father through perfected love.
Rather than six unrelated figures, they become six movements within one narrative arc.
This is the journey of every son.
Isaiah quietly introduces a tension that often goes unnoticed.
"You, LORD, are our Father... though Abraham does not know us, and Israel does not acknowledge us." (Isaiah 63:16)
The passage distinguishes the Father from Israel itself. Even Israel's patriarchs are no longer the ultimate point of identity. The Father stands beyond every earthly distinction.
This prepares the reader for a deeper question:
If the Father transcends Israel, then who exactly is developing throughout the biblical story?
Exodus intensifies the question.
Yahweh declares:
"Israel is my firstborn son." (Exodus 4:22)
Moments later, the narrative reaches one of its most difficult passages, where Yahweh seeks to kill Moses before the blood of circumcision turns away the impending judgment.
Taken literally, the passage has puzzled readers for centuries.
Within this symbolic reading, however, the episode illustrates the recurring pattern of ego: violence interrupted by sacrifice, judgment restrained by covenant, blood answering blood.
The story is not describing another deity.
It is describing another stage in the education of the son.
Jesus' confrontation in John 8 reaches its climax when he tells the religious leaders:
"You belong to your father, the devil... He was a murderer from the beginning."
This statement has often been misunderstood as introducing another ultimate power opposed to God.
Within this narrative framework, Jesus is exposing something far more intimate.
The "father" he identifies is the interior pattern of accusation, murder, and falsehood that governs every divided heart.
The accuser is born wherever judgment becomes identity.
The devil is therefore not merely an external enemy but the personification of accusation itself—the inevitable offspring of separation.
Only moments later, Jesus declares:
"Before Abraham was, I AM."
This declaration becomes one of the great hinges of the entire narrative.
Jesus does not introduce a new Lord.
He reveals the completion of the same Lord's journey.
The one who formerly ruled through fear now reveals the Father through love.
The same voice now speaks with entirely different understanding because the Son has entered incarnation, endured suffering, and learned obedience from within the human condition.
Hebrews becomes the commentary on the entire transformation:
"Although he was a Son, he learned obedience through what he suffered."
The Father never changes.
The Son does.
Read this way, Scripture ceases to be a debate between competing deities.
Instead, it becomes one continuous story of the Son's education.
Adam.
The Fall.
Ego.
Accuser.
The humbled servant.
The risen Christ.
These are not six Lords.
They are six chapters in one life.
And because Luke traces Jesus back to "Adam, the son of God," the arc ultimately belongs not only to Christ but to every image bearer. The Bible becomes the story of one humanity learning, through incarnation, suffering, repentance, and love, to return consciously to the Father from whom it never ceased to receive its being.
