THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 2
EDITED WITH COMMENTARIES BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA

CH. 8
One single name is not uttered in the world, the name which the
Father gave to the Son; it is the name above all things: the name of
the Father. For the Son would not become Father unless he wore the
name of the Father. Those who have this name know it, but they do not
speak it. But those who do not have it do not know it. (We Hindus pay
much attention to the name or names of God. We have several books
called "Sahasranama's", meaning "thousand names of God": These are
not only names but are also symbols for God, and there are thousands.
We have several popular mantras for the Name of God: Sat Nam or "True
Name", SitaRam Sat Nam or "man joined with woman is the True Name",
or Eckongckar Sat Nam, meaning "One Om Body is the True Name of God",
etc., etc. Interestingly, Paul Twitchell called his Soul Travel
Org., "Eckankar", meaning "One Ankh Body", Ankh meaning Om in ancient
Egyptian, implying that such Yin-Yang Union is the Way to Astral
Projection, which is the purely Spiritual part of Salvation, which
is, nevertheless, contingent upon the Genetic Joining of the physical
bodies of man and wife. A few people have managed to attain this by
meditation alone, such as was the case for Gopi Krishna, the world's
most prolific author on Kundalini. A few others are just born that
way or acquire the OBE ability without a known cause. The Holy Bible
states: "I give you a white stone with a New Name on it, and nobody
will know that Name but you". We have already explained that this
means a Body Purified by fasting and Sexual Union, causing you to
acquire Health and Longevity through the Dwij or Second Birth,
whereby male and female chromosomes merge into a New Genetic Code or
New Genome or Gene Name. When Sita and Ram joined, they both became
SitaRam. Latin countries still have the custom of keeping both the
mother's and father's names, when giving a Newborn Child its name.
For instance, Miguel Hidalgo, the father of Mexican Independence: His
formal name is Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla. Costilla was his mother's
name. I like the custom, because it implies the genes of both sexual
partners, as they join in the Newborn Babe. In Genetics, we call this
Meiosis, when the chromosomes of the male and female double helixes
divide to form a New Genetic Being - no longer the father nor the
mother, but a combination of both.)

CH. 9
But truth brought names into existence in the world for our sakes,
because it is not possible to learn it (truth) without these names.
Truth is one single thing; it is many things and for our sakes to
teach about this one thing in love through many things. The rulers
(archons) wanted to deceive man, since they saw that he had a kinship
with those that are truly good. They took the name of those that are
good and gave it to those that are not good, so that through the
names they might deceive him and bind them to those that are not
good. And afterward, what a favor they do for them! They make them be
removed from those that are not good and place them among those that
are good. These things they knew, for they wanted to take the free
man and make him a slave to them forever. (This is a very awkward
description of the Name Game: Words misunderstood, means they no
longer represent their own true meanings. Without the correct
concepts, we are lost in the deception of words and names. Thus, we
will fail to attain Salvation from Suffering, and those who make
money by deceiving others, will keep you in Bondage to the Eight-fold
Suffering. In a world of the cheaters and the cheated, we are the
many slaves of the masters of deception.)

CH. 10
These are powers which [...] (enslave?) man, not wishing him to be
saved, in order that they may [...] (die). For if man is saved, there
will not be any sacrifices [...] (tithes?) and animals (or money?)
will not be offered to the powers (the medical-religious cartel?).
Indeed, the animals (not God, but bad men) were the ones to whom they
sacrificed. They were indeed offering them (real blood sacrifices) up
alive, but when they offered them up, they died. As for man, they
offered him up to God dead, and he lived. (Through the
corrrect "sacrifice" we are Resurrected from degeneration unto
Regeneration.)

CH. 11
Before Christ came, there was no bread in the world, just as
Paradise, the place were Adam was, had many trees to nourish the
animals but no wheat to sustain man. Man used to feed like the
animals, but when Christ came, the perfect man, he brought bread from
heaven (Genetic Efflux from Heaven Within Us) in order that man might
be nourished with the food of man (not beasts). The rulers thought
that it was by their own power and will that they were doing what
they did, but the Holy Spirit in secret was accomplishing
everything through them as it wished. Truth, which existed since the
beginning, is sown everywhere. And many see it being sown, but few
are they who see it being reaped. (That is why we preach SANGHA - The
Tantric Monastic Community. With few exceptions, group support means
the difference between success and failure in Urine Therapy, Rasa
Tantra or Project Genesis. Enquire within about the Tantra Sangha we
have long recommended.)

CH. 12
Some said, "Mary conceived by the Holy Spirit." They are in error.
They do not know what they are saying. When did a woman ever conceive
by a woman? Mary is the virgin whom no power defiled. She is a great
anathema to the Hebrews, who are the apostles and the apostolic men.
This virgin whom no power defiled [...] the powers defile themselves.
And the Lord would not have said "My Father who is in Heaven" (Mt
16:17), unless he had had another father, but he would have said
simply "My father". (Lilian Storey, the librarian at the London
Theosophical Society, once told me: "In ancient Hebrew, 'virgin'
meant a woman who had never given birth"! I told her: "I was alrady
having problems with how she conceived, and now I must ask how Jesus
was born to a woman who never gave birth!" The answer is simple, if
you prefer to look at this as symbols in a divine allegory. The
answer to this remarkable Birth, with neither copulation nor
delivering of a child, is simple: It is the Dwij or New Birth through
the practice of the Hermetic Union of man and wife. Even Christ's
Resurrection from the Dead is but another symbol for this very same
Genetic Rejuvenation of the Divine Couple. And those thus
Resurrected, can also perform miracles, such as raising the dead, be
they others or one's own self.)

CH. 13
The Lord said to the disciples, "[...] from every house. Bring into
the house of the Father. But do not take (anything) in the house of
the Father nor carry it off." (Elsewhere, Jesus said: "Of all the
father hath given me I let none of it escape". That is the Hermetic
Seal of the Genetic Efflux, allowing none of it to escape, during the
Urine Fast.)

CH. 14
"Jesus" is a hidden name, "Christ" is a revealed name. For this
reason "Jesus" is not particular to any language; rather he is always
called by the name "Jesus". While as for "Christ", in Syriac it
is "Messiah", in Greek it is "Christ". Certainly all the others have
it according to their own language. (Many names for the One God
Within Us) "The Nazarene" is he who reveals what is hidden. (Without
explanation of the "secret" of Salvation, it is not from the
Revelator.) Christ has everything in himself, whether man, or
angel, or mystery, and the Father. ("WITHIN" is the key word in
our "Jihad" of Spiritual Understanding.)

CH. 15
Those who say that the Lord died first and (then) rose up are in
error, for he rose up first and (then) died. If one does not first
attain the resurrection, he will not die. As God lives, he would
[...]. (This is an important rebuttal against those who
claim "salvation only comes after we die". Our techniques can only be
practiced while in the body, and Physical Immortality can only be had
in the body. By physical means, we bring the Chi, Kundalini, or Holy
Spirit up to the brain. That is what opens us to Inner Sight and
Sound, without physical eyes nor ears. If the body dies, for one who
already has this Energy active, the Energy and the experience is
transferred over to the Soul. That is what Jesus meant when he
said: "Put your treasure where moth and rust doth not corrupt",
and "Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven, and all else will be added
unto you". But the fools had another agenda and many excuses,
beginning with: "Yes, but...")

CH. 16
No one will hide a large valuable object in something large, but many
a time one has tossed countless thousands into a thing worth a penny.
Compare the soul. It is a precious thing and it came to be in a
contemptible body. (Until you value health and longevity above petty,
paltry possessions, you will continue to live in hell and die and go
to a similar hell. Having a human body and a chance for Immortality,
are priceless gifts, but if of little value to the fool, they are
naught but what Jesus called it: A priceless gem, denegrated down to
nothing of value, for, as Jesus said of the Priceless Body: "Never
have I seen such wealth living in such poverty".)
