THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP: THE DISCOVERY IN EGYPT IN 1945
ONE OF THE FOUR TANTRIC GOSPELS OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST
http://www.salvationscience.com/
Another Coptic Gnostic scripture, which was discovered earlier in
Ethiopia, entitled "The Pistis Sophia", states that Jesus had three
scribes: Matthew, Thomas and Philip. Mark and Luke were not among
the original twelve disciples of Jesus, and obviously copied their
gospels from the original of Matthew. The disciple, John, obviously
wrote his gospel later, from memory. Jai Om. - Sw. Tantrasangha

THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP
PART 1
CH. 1
A Hebrew makes another Hebrew, and such a person is
called "proselyte". But a proselyte does not make another proselyte.
[...] just as they [...] and make others like themselves, while
others simply exist.
CH. 2
The slave seeks only to be free, but he does not hope to acquire the
estate of his master. But the son is not only a son but lays claim to
the inheritance of the father. (The inheritance is the Resurrection
of the body and the Spiritualization of the mind: The same
inheritance and birthright "Esau forsook for a bowl of lentil
porridge". Like the Bible states: "Those who break the fast, must die
the death". The "Son" of Heaven is the Dwij or Rebirth.) Those who
are heirs to the dead are themselves dead, and they inherit the dead.
(All those in a state of physical degeneration were said to be
already dead.) Those who are heirs to what is living are alive, and
they are heirs to both what is living and the dead. The dead are
heirs to nothing. (All Hermetic religions have the same goal of
attaining Physical Genetic Rejuvenation. The dead and dying fail to
attain the Longer and Happier Life of Salvation from Suffering.) For
how can he who is dead inherit? (The Immortal Physical Body, although
capable of Transmutation into other dimensions, is, for the most
part, a thing of THIS world.) If he who is dead inherits what is
living he will not die, but he who is dead will live even more. (We
must be Reborn from degeneration unto Regeneration, and he who
Regenerates will also be MUCH better off, even in the non-physical
Spiritual Dimensions, because Chi is now in the highest chakras,
ready for "liftoff" from the confines of the physical brain, and
begins perception with the Astral Brain, Spirit of Soul. Jesus
said: "Put your treasure where moth and rust doth not corrupt". The
benefits of the Resurrected Body go beyond, into the spiritual world.
When passing out of the body, especially if it is the last such exit
from a body soon to be discarded, if the energy is in the Crown
Chakra of the King, one passes into much preferable experiences in
the Spirit. Most such Reborn people are like the apostle Paul, who
said: "I die daily", meaning he passes out of the body in Soul
Travel, and has familiarized himself with this death experience of
being out-of-the-body. Those who have no such out-of-body-experience
are likely to experience a hellish fear when they die, much like
animals fear strangers and strange places.)
CH. 3
A Gentile does not die, for he has never lived in order that he may
die. (i.e. the living dead.) He who has believed in the truth has
found life, and this one is in danger of dying, for he is alive. (The
Hermetic Truth is all about physical survival, and those who oppose
it have condemned themselves to die, having placed a death sentence
upon themselves.) Since Christ came, the world has been created, the
cities adorned, the dead carried out. When we were Hebrews, we were
orphans and had only our mother, but when we became Christians, we
had both father and mother. (This is uncanny! Jews are traditionally
ascribed not to the father's lineage but the mother's. There is an
interesting joke to explain this, which a Jew once told me: "If you
are a Jewish baby, you are your mother's baby - your
father's...maybe!" Christians, of course, trace their lineage and
name from the father. In Rebirth, unlike Birth, it is undeniable who
is the Rightful Father, for he is the one with New Flesh!)
CH. 4
Those who sow in winter reap in summer. The winter is the world, the
summer the other Aeon (eternal realm). Let us sow in the world that
we may reap in the summer. (We "sow the seed of Genetic Rejuvenation
in the physical body, and, thus, reap Spiritual benefits. Because of
this, it is fitting for us not to pray in the winter. Summer follows
winter. But if any man reap in winter he will not actually reap but
only pluck out, since it will not provide a harvest for such a
person. It is not only [...] that it will [...] come forth, but also
on the Sabbath [...] is barren. (Some sayings are as enigmatic to me
as they are to you, and this is one of them. We decided not to delete
anything. Even if a passage is incomprehensible, we might figure it
out later.)
CH. 5
Christ came to ransom some, to save others, to redeem others. He
ransomed those who were strangers and made them his own. And he set
his own apart, those whom he gave as a pledge according to his plan.
It was not only when he appeared that he voluntarily laid down his
life, but he voluntarily laid down his life from the very day the
world came into being. Then he came first in order to take it, since
it had been given as a pledge. It fell into the hands of robbers and
was taken captive, but he saved it. He redeemed the good people in
the world as well as the evil. (We have been discussing the "thieves
and robbers who stole the world". Kevin Trudeau's book, "Natural
Cures They Don't Want You to Know About", is all about it. Trudeau's
motto, when describing the medical-religious-pharmaceutical business
conglomerate, which would also "close Jesus down", is: "Always
remember, it's always only all about the money!" Like Jesus said: "Ye
cannot serve both God and money". In other words, you should value
your health and longevity much more than any material possessions
money can buy. Since Rasa Tantra or the Marriage Supper is a "natural
cure they don't want you to know about", what the powerful filthy-
rich vested interests do to Naturopathy, they also do to the True
Dharma or Gospel. The Water of Life from the "Tree of Life", is just
another "natural organic herb", albeit the very best one. True
theology is not for fundamentalist fanatics. It is for those who are
careful about what they put into their mouths, lest they degenerate
unto sickness and death.)
CH. 6
Light and Darkness, life and death, right and left, are brothers of
one another. They are inseparable. Because of this neither are the
good good, nor evil evil, nor is life life, nor death death. For this
reason each one will dissolve into its earliest origin. But those who
are exalted above the world are indissoluble, eternal. (It is said we
began as Spirits, and later became bodies. That is why the
original "Son" of God, the "eldest", "first-born", "only begotten",
is, in fact the Dwij or Rebirth, which puts our consciousness into
the Spirit.)
CH. 7
Names given to the worldly are very deceptive, for they divert our
thoughts from what is correct to what is incorrect. Thus one who
hears the word "God" does not perceive what is correct, but perceives
what is incorrect. (Remember our discussions about the "name game"
about terms, the concepts of which we do not understand? Paul
Twitchell called this the "Word Illusion", in which we delude
ourselves to believe that words are things. Words are not things, but
are only labels. If we don't undestand what the words mean, we are
only deceiving ourselves like sectarian fundamentalists. The word
ain't the thing, as I have often told you. These misunderstood words
are the proverbial "Battleground of Theology". We recently had such
a "battle", which is found in the same volume containing the Gospel
of Philip.) So also with "the Father" and "the Son" and "the
Holy Spirit" and "life" and "light" and "resurrection" and "the
Church (Ekklesia)" and all the rest - people do not perceive what is
correct but they perceive what is incorrect, unless they have come to
know what is correct. The names which are heard are in the world
[...] deceive. (This is at the core of our teachings! All would be
Hermetic Gnostics if they understood the true concepts or meanings of
the words we use to describe our religion. Since they do not
understand, they become sectarian fundamentalists, arguing about
words they do not understand, much like the "seven blind men" who
each had a small piece of Truth, but none would agree about the Whole
Truth. Being bound by the Five Unrighteous Character Qualities of:
Ignorance, Irrationality, Dishonesty, Arrogance and Hate, the Truth
is blocked, and the devils never get Saved.) If they were in the Aeon
(eternal realm), they would at no time be used as names in the world.
Nor were they set among worldly things. They have an end in the Aeon.
(Soul Travel in an Out-of-Body-Experience, abbreviated by
parapsychologists as OOBE or OBE or NDE, for Near-Death-Experiences,
would help one understand more about God's own Spiritual Nature. Like
Jesus, "the Word made flesh", said: "Adhere not to the letter of the
law, but to the Spirit of the Law". Toss out the bread and wine, and
adapt to the real Sacraments of the Holy Eucharist - your own Genetic
Efflux - the Seed of Regeneration, for as the Bible says about
God: "A seed will serve Him". Without Vidya or Gnosis, the words are
but delusions, empty of anything real, whereby you destroy yourselves
and others with the darkness of irrational self-centered hate,
whereby you are blinded and unable to see the Gnosis of Salvation
offered here.)

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".)

CH. 17
Some are afraid lest they rise naked. Because of this they wish to
rise in the flesh, and they do not know that it is those who wear the
flesh who are naked. It is those who [...] to unclothe themselves who
are not naked. "Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God"
(1 Cor. 15:50). (Flesh and blood, if it is degenerating and without
the Inner Light and Sound of the Holy Spirit, is outside our
Salvation.) What is this which will not inherit? This which is on
us. But what is this, too, which will inherit? It is that which
belongs to Jesus and his blood. (Our blood must be a mixture of male
and female hormones and DNA, as was the blood of Jesus, when he
combined with Mary Magdalene.) Because of this he said "He who shall
not eat my flesh and drink my blood has not life in him" (Jn 6:53).
(If you don't consume the Genetic Efflux of the Marriage Supper of
the Lamb of God, you have not Resurrected from degeneration unto
Regeneration.)
What is it? His flesh is the word, and his blood is the Holy Spirit.
(He practiced what he preached, and the Promise of an Immortal Body
became realized in his own body, thus making the Word into flesh.
Without the Androgynous Blood of Regeneration, the Holy Spirit, Chi,
or Kundalini cannot rise to the brain. Jesus said: "Ye must be Born
Again of water and Spirit".)
He who has received these has food and he has drink and clothing.
(The Gospel is all about Sacramental food and drink.) I
find fault with the others who say that it (in this case, the
body "rising", as it were, "from the grave".) will not rise. Then
both
of them are at fault. You say that the flesh will not rise. But tell
me what will rise, that we may honor you. You say the Spirit (is) in
the flesh, and it is also this light in the flesh. (Since the
Androgyny of the Bioplasma is the Way, whereby we can see this Inner
Light. As Jesus said: "When thine eye is single, thy whole body will
be filled with Light".) (But) this too is a
matter which is in the flesh, for whatever you shall say, you say
nothing outside the flesh. It is necessary to rise in this flesh,
since everything exists in it. (Like Jesus said: "If you don't attain
the Kingdom of Heaven while in the body, you will not attain it after
you die". That is why Hindu shastra states: "Don't die outside
Varanasi" - the conjoining of two rivers into one. Prana must be in
Shushumna Nadi - the Central Channel - for Kundalini to rise to the
head. If Kundalini Shakti is in the Third Eye or exiting from the God
Chakra at the top of the head, at the moment when one dies, the
energy and the vision you had in the body will remain with you after
you die, much like the energy liberated from a battery when it is
destroyed. This is a very important concept!) In this world, those
who put on garments are better than the garments. In the Kingdom of
Heaven, the garments are better than those that put them on. (Jesus
speaks of the "Wedding Garment", and stated, in the Bible, that
without it, we are "cast into outer darkness" - perhaps an
overstatement, but it is wise to prepare for survival, either
physically or Spiritually or both.)
CH. 18
It is through water and fire that the whole place is purified - the
visible by the visible, the hidden by the hidden. There are some
things hidden through those visible. There is water in water, there
is fire in chrism. (John the baptist said: "I baptize you with water,
but one comes after me who will baptize you with the Fire of Holy
Spirit" - the same fire that lit Elijah's altar, whereby his
sacrifice of water was proven true, thus igniting the wrath of
Jezebel "the whore" or puta. Elijah lamented: "I alone remain. They
don't seek my council, and they seek to take my life". Fire is a
symbol for the Holy Spirit or Kundalini. By being "Born again of
water and Spirit", we know that God has "accepted our sacrifice", but
most people are like Cain, who was jealous, because his brother's
sacrifice was accepted, but his was not.)
CH. 19
Jesus took them all by stealth, for he did not appear as he was, but
in the manner in which they would be able to see him. (It is said
that the "Divine Body" is as was Jesus at the Transmutation on the
mount. It is said that Jesus looked normal, then became pure Light,
then changed his form, then disappeared! There is still much to learn
about the physical changes in the Resurrected Body.) He appeared to
them all. He appeared to the great as great. He appeared to the small
as small. He appeared to the angels as an angel, and to men as a man.
Because of this, his word hid itself from everyone. Some indeed saw
him, thinking that they were seeing themselves, but when he appeared
to his disciples in glory on the mount, he was not small. He became
great, but he made the disciples great, that they might be able to
see him in his greatness. (In looking at others, we see our own
idiosyncrasies. We tend to see much of ourselves in others. For
example, a liar would be looking for a lie, etc. This is an
impediment to seeing what is actually there. Have you noticed that
those who don't give, find it difficult to receive?)
CH. 20
He said on that day in the thanksgiving, "You who have joined the
perfect Light with the Holy Spirit, unite the angels with us also, as
being the images (of Inner Light)." Do not despise the lamb (True
Sacrifice), for without it, it is not possible to see the king(dom).
No one will be able to go in to the king if he is naked (without a
Wedding Garment). (This whole Secret Doctrine, as Helena Blavatsky
called it, is about the Sacraments of the Holy Eucharist, symbolized
by Marriage, Baptism, wine and bread. These are all but symbols for
the flesh and blood of Christ, which, again, symbolizes Genetic
Efflux, exchanged and consumed by man and wife, in the Marriage
Supper of the Lamb of God, which we Hindus call Rasa Tantra.)
CH. 21
The heavenly man has many more sons than the earthly man. If the sons
of Adam are many, although they die, how much more the sons of the
perfect man, they who do not die but are always begotten (always
Regenerating themselves). The father makes a son, and the son has not
the power to make a son. For he who has been begotten has not the
power to beget, but the son gets brothers for himself, not sons. (As
in the story of Abraham, God's sacrifice was his "Only-Begotten Son",
symbolized by blood sacrifice. We forego copulation and childbirth,
in preference of the Higher Cause of Genetic Rejuvenation. Instead of
pouring seed outwards to make children, we put it back in the body
for Regeneration.) All who are begotten in the world are begotten in
a natural way, and the others are nourished from the place whence
they have been born. (The Book of Genesis has the story of cows who
Conceived from drinking water from a trough with phallic rods in it.
Of the "Rod of Moses", we Hindus say: "Lingum erect - That is
correct!" You must overcome your indoctrination against these
Hermetic Naturopathic Principles. We are "Born Again" from the water
we drink and the food we avoid.) It is from being promised to the
heavenly place that man receives nourishment. [...] him from the
mouth. (As in ancient Egyptian religion, we inherit the Kingdom of
the Sun by "eating sepulcheral meals".) And had the word gone out
from that place, it would be nourished from the mouth and it would
become perfect. For it is by a kiss (not copulation) that the perfect
(Re)conceive and give (Re)birth. For this reason we also kiss one
another. We receive (Re)conception from the grace which is in one
another. (Man and wife give each other the Rebirth - the most
valuable gift of all! Otherwise, they are just using each other.
Ladies, I think it is time for you to demand of your man that he give
you your beauty back or else! Much is made of oral sex, but the devil
insists it not be for God, but only for lust. Urine Therapists drink
their own but not their spouse's, since that would be for God.
Repent!)
CH. 22
There were three who always walked with the Lord: Mary, his mother,
and her sister, and Magdalene, the one who was called his companion.
His sister and his mother and his companion were each a Mary.
(Elsewhere, it states: "Mary Magdalene was His consort, and they
kissed a lot". She was His Tantric Shakti Ma! Does the Gospel have
more love than you previously thought? Jai Om.)
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 4
EDITED WITH COMMENTARIES BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA
CH. 23
"The Father" and "the Son" are single names; "the Holy Spirit" is a
double name (male and female). For they (the Joined Couple) are
everywhere: they are above, they are below; they are in the
concealed, they are in the revealed. The Holy Spirit is in the
revealed: it is below. It is in the concealed: it is above.
CH. 24
The saints are served by evil powers, for they are blinded by the
Holy Spirit into thinking that they are serving an (ordinary) man
whenever they do so for the saints. Because of this, a disciple asked
the Lord one day for something of this world. He said to him, "Ask
your mother, and she will give you of the things which are
another's."
CH. 25
The apostles said to the disciples, "May our entire offering obtain
salt." They called Sophia (Wisdom) "salt". Without it, no offering is
acceptable. But Sophia is barren, without child (wise but no
Rebirth). For this reason, she is called "a trace of salt". (Jesus
said: "If there is no salt within a man, wherein will he be
salted?" "Salt" is a symbol for Genetic Efflux.) Wherever they will
[...] in their own way, the Holy Spirit [...], and her children are
many.
CH. 26
What the father possesses belongs to the son, and the son himself, so
long as he is small, is not entrusted with what is his. But when he
becomes a man, his father gives him all that he possesses. (The child
is raised to a young man, when he will become of age for Rasa Tantra
or the Marriage Supper, thereby inheriting the "Kingdom of his Father
in Heaven Within You".)
CH. 27
Those who have gone astray, whom the spirit begets, usually go astray
also because of the Spirit. Thus, by one and the same breath, the
fire blazes and is put out.
CH. 28
Echamoth is one thing and Echmoth, another. Echamoth is Wisdom
simply, but Echmoth is the Wisdom of death, which is the one who
knows death, which is called "the little Wisdom".
CH. 29
There are domestic animals, like the bull and the ass and others of
this kind. Others are wild and live apart in the deserts. Man ploughs
the field by means of the domestic animals, and from this he is
nourished, he and the animals, whether tame or wild. Compare the
perfect man. It is through powers which are submissive that he
ploughs, preparing for everything to come into being. For it is
because of this that the whole place stands, whether the good or the
evil, the right and the left. The Holy Spirit shepherds everyone and
rules all the powers, the "tame" ones and the "wild" ones, as well as
those which are unique. For indeed he [...] shuts them in, in order
that [...] wish, they will not be able to escape.
CH. 30
He who has been created is beautiful, but you would <not> find his
sons noble creations. If he were not created, but begotten, you would
find that his seed was noble. But now he was created (and) he begot.
What nobility is this? First, adultery came into being, afterward
murder. And he was begotten in adultery (copulation?), for he was the
child of the Serpent. (The Egyptian word for serpent in Nak. Nak
symbolizes Ankh, On, meaning water or Om, written in Sanskrit as
conjoined phallus and vagina - symbol of the sacred Hindu Siva
Lingum, upon which ritual water is poured. The Hebrews used the
serpent in a negative context, because of the temptation to copulate.
The Egyptians and Hindus used the serpent term in a positive sense,
although it was associated with ugliness, fear, danger and evil. In
ancient Egypt, hieroglyphics were written only in consonants, in
order to throw off the uninitiated, since they wouldn't know where to
insert which vowels. So, what they wrote, had different
interpretations, according to one's Gnosis. The serpent, Nak, written
as nk, is practically the same as Ankh or nkh, which is like the
Biblical On or N., meaning water and what to do with it. Yogi Bhajan
once told me that Om used to be pronounced "Ong". There is your
Biblical On, and your Egyptian N.) So he became a murderer, just like
his father, and he killed his brother. Indeed, every act of sexual
intercourse which has occurred between those unlike one another is
adultery. (Jesus taught that there are two kinds of marriages: 1.
Copulation and Apana or outflow of Bindu or seed, which was
a "marriage in the night", for it did not raise the Chi to the brain;
and 2. "Marriages in the Light", in which they fasted and exchanged
Genetic Efflux, as in the Biblical Marriage Supper or Wedding Feast,
in which there was no Apana or outflow. This practice opens the
Consciousness to the Vision of Inner Lights and the Inner Orchestra
of the Anahat Nad.)
CH. 31
God is a dyer. As the good dyes, which are called "true", dissolve
with the things dyed in them, so it is with those whom God has dyed.
Since his dyes are immortal, they become immortal by means of his
colors. Now God dips what he dips in water. (Again and again, is
repeated this theme of Physical Immortality - the most exciting and
rare of all the Siddhis! By the Baptism, symbolized as "entering
Noah's Ark two by two", we become Immortal and in a state of Higher
Consciousness, in Perceptual Communion with Almighty Allah, or
whatever Name you choose to call God.)
CH. 32
It is not possible for anyone to see anything of the things that
actually exist unless he becomes like them. This is not the way with
man in the world: he sees the sun without being a sun; and he sees
the heaven and the earth and all other things, but he is not these
things. This is quite in keeping with the truth. But you saw
something of that place, and you became those things. You saw the
Spirit, you became spirit. You saw Christ, you became Christ. You saw
the Father, you shall become Father. So in this place you see
everything and do not see yourself, but in that place you do see
yourself - and what you see you shall become. (TAT VAM ASI or That
Art Thou, as we Hindus say. This is the essence of AdvaitaCitta - the
Consciousness of Non-Separation, in which subject and object, or
perceiver and perceived, are joined by the Tantra or Weaving of
Father Sun and Sister Moon into a single Advaitamrita, thereby
stimulating the Tantra or Expansion of Consciousness via Astral
Projection or Soul Travel. The only danger of this Telepathic State,
is the possible hypnosis, caused by the invasion of the erroneous
thoughts of others or the failure to discriminate between one's own
thoughts and those of others. Interestingly, "Tantra" means both "a
weaving together" and "expansion". Tantra was the perfect term to
express the practice and the result of the practice of the Sanatana
Sat Dharma of Tantra Vidya or Gnosis, Tantra Sadhana or Communion of
Saints and Tantra Moksha or Salvation - my interpretation of the
Primary Teaching of the "Three Gems" of the Beloved Siddhartha Gotama
the Buddha. Remember the three basic requisites for Salvation from
Suffering: 1. Tantra Dharma, 2. Tantra Sangha or the Tantric Monastic
Commune, and 3. Tantra Moksha or Salvation from the Eight-fold
Suffering of: 1. Hunger and Thirst 2. Disease 3. Senescence or Decay
4. Death 5. Low Mental Intelligence 6. Emotional Depression 7.
Entrapment of Consciousness in the physical dimension, and 8. The
Impermanence of an endless cycle or Samsara of unpleasant appearances
in various bodies and dimensions. We want to fix your Krishna Car, as
it were. Need a good mechanic? Getting ready for Christmas?)
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 5

CH. 33
Faith receives, love gives. No one will be able to receive without
faith. No one will be able to give without love. Because of this, in
order that we may indeed receive, we believe, and in order that we
may love, we give, since if one gives without love, he has no profit
from what he has given. He who has received something other than the
Lord is still a Hebrew. (Those selfish souls who don't give, find it
difficult to receive. Is that not what happened to what we offered
you? Is that not why you cannot be Saved?)
CH. 34
The apostles who were before us had these names for him: "Jesus, the
Nazorean, Messiah", that is, "Jesus, the Nazorean, the Christ". The
last name is "Christ", the first is "Jesus", that in the middle
is "the Nazarene". "Messiah" has two meanings, both "the Christ"
and "the measured". "Jesus" in Hebrew is "the redemption". "Nazara"
is "the Truth". "The Nazarene" then, is "the Truth". "Christ" [...]
has been measured. "The Nazarene" and "Jesus" are they who have been
measured.
CH. 35
When the pearl is cast down into the mud, it becomes greatly
despised, nor if it is anointed with balsam oil will it become more
precious. But it always has value in the eyes of its owner. Compare
the Sons of God: wherever they may be, they still have value in the
eyes of their Father. (Like Jesus said: "The stone that was rejected
by the builders, has become the headstone of the corner", for, "The
highest will be lowest, and the lowest will be highest". Regarding
America's reaction, and that of the churches, to Salvation Science,
it would appear that the Father has a very different opinion than
they.)
CH. 36
If you say, "I am a Jew," no one will be moved. If you say, "I am a
Roman," no one will be disturbed. If you say, "I am a Greek, a
barbarian, a slave, a free man," no one will be troubled. If you
say, "I am a Christian," the [...] will tremble. Would that I might
[...] like that - the person whose name [...] will not be able to
endure hearing. (Jesus said: "Ask anything in my Name, and it shall
be granted". This "Magic" Name, as we said, is the Manifestation of
the Divine, Resurrected Body, whereby the Siddhis are so great, that
you can have, within reason, anything you wish! This explains the so-
called "miracles" of Jesus, which were really but a little-known
application of Natural Physical Law. The Book of Revelations
states: "I give you a New Name", not the old one, and that Name
means "Nature". The True Nature of God, is the Resurrected Body with
the "Gifts of the Holy Spirit" (I Cor. 12). Few can endure the
hearing of this True Nature of God, and, for that reason, will have
hell to pay for their lack of Honor and Righteousness. We Hindus say:
Eckongkar Sat Nam, or SitaRam SataNam. Whatever words you choose, the
meaning or the concept is the same.)
CH. 37
God is a man-eater. For this reason, men are sacrificed to him.
Before men were sacrificed, animals were being sacrificed, since
those to whom they were sacrificed were not gods. (The only "True
Sacrifice" is one's own self. All else is unacceptable towards
Salvation.)
CH. 38
Glass decanters and earthenware jugs are both made by means of fire.
But if glass decanters break, they are done over, for they came into
being through a breath. If earthenware jugs break, however, they are
destroyed, for they came into being without breath. ("Breath" is a
symbol for the Water of Life, also for "Spirit": In other words,
being "Born Again of Water and Spirit". Thus attaining the Siddhis
or "magic powers", one could be dead three days and still revive the
dead body. Otherwise, that would be impossible.)
CH. 39
An ass which turns a millstone did a hundred miles walking. When it
was loosed, it found that it was still at the same place. There are
men who make many journeys, but make no progress towards any
destination. When evening came upon them, they saw neither city nor
village, neither human artifact nor natural phenomenon, power nor
angel. In vain have the wretches labored. (Like Paul Twitchell
said: "The church errs, because of a lack of perspective". The
chaotic mind has no center and a very short attention span. Being an
overt atheist or a covert one, by masquerading as a religious type:
These will surely divert you away from that which you have already
decided: "Salvation doesn't exist". In general, the impediments will
be the Five Attributes of the Antichrist Devil: Uneducated Ignorance,
Illogical Irrationality, Dishonorable Insincerety, Aggressive
Arrogance, and Wrathful Hate. The Aquarian Gospel sums it up in three
words - the selfish self. It is difficult for the selfish and stingy
to receive. It makes them feel guilty. How ironic, since receiving
Salvation is the only Way they can overcome guilt!)
CH. 40
The eucharist is Jesus. For he is called in Syriac "Pharisatha,"
which is "the one who is spread out," for Jesus came to crucify the
world. (This is interesting. "Spread out" means "expanded" - a
meaning and a manifestation of Tantra! The soul Expands out into
Telepathic Soul Travel. Someone asked me: "What is the Christians'
main mistake?" I answered: We think that we didn't help by giving aid
to Jesus, so he was crucified. That is not the correct perspective,
which is this: We didn't HELP OURSELVES BY RECEIVING AID FROM JESUS,
so we condemned ourselves to eternal hell and death! That is the
correct perspective, from which you must learn. Next time you see the
image of Jesus, grimacing in pain on the cross, imagine that it is
you and the entire world up there on the cross, dying a slow
agonizing death, while Jesus is calmly basking elsewhere in the
Inner Light, thinking: "I told you so".)
CH. 41
The Lord went into the dye works of Levi. He took seventy-two
different colors and threw them into the vat. He took them out all
white. And he said, "Even so has the Son of Man come as a dyer." (All
religions must offer this one thing: Salvation from Suffering by a
Longer, Healthier, Happier, Holier Life. That is the Salvation
Science which binds all religions together as One Peaceful Truth,
instead of many contentious lies, which, as you might see, if you are
not blind, is the present situation which threatens the Life of this
entire unrighteous planet. If you are not one of the many, you had
better find a place for the few!)
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 6

CH. 42
As for the Wisdom who is called "the barren," she is the mother of
the angels. (Having not given outer birth, but Inner Rebirth) And the
companion of the [...] (Shakti Ma?) Mary Magdalene. [...] (Jesus)
loved her more than all the disciples, and used to kiss her often on
her mouth. The rest of the disciples [...]. They said to him "Why do
you love her more than all of us?" The Savior answered and said to
them, "Why do I not love you like her? When a blind man and one who
sees are both together in darkness, they are no different from one
another. When the light comes, then he who sees will see the light,
and he who is blind will remain in darkness."
CH. 43
The Lord said, "Blessed is he who is before he came into being. For
he who is, has been and shall be." (Although the greatest proponent
of Physical Immortality, Jesus preferred Life in the Spirit, over
that in the body. According to Hermetic Philosophy, the Resurrection
of the Body, is a prerequisite for attaining a permanent state, be it
in the Spirit or in the body.)
CH. 44
The superiority of man is not obvious to the eye, but lies in what is
hidden from view. (Our Righteousness is not in outward shows and
appearances, but is hidden within us.) Consequently, he has mastery
over the animals which are stronger than he is and great in terms of
the obvious and the hidden. This enables them to survive. But if man
is separated from them, they slay one another and bite one another.
They ate one another because they did not find any food. But now they
have found food because man tilled the soil.
CH. 45
If one goes down into the water and comes up without having received
anything, and says "I am a Christian," he has borrowed the name at
interest. But if he receives the Holy Spirit, he has the name as a
gift. He who has received a gift does not have to give it back, but
of him who has borrowed it at interest, payment is demanded. This is
the way it happens to one when he experiences a mystery.
(The "Mystery" is what Salvation Science is here to explain. You may
call yourselves "Christian", but without Righteousness and
being "Born Again of water and Spirit", you are only deceiving
yourselves and others. Like Jesus said: "Beware the wolves in Lamb's
clothing". The entire so-called "Christian" west is inhabited with
such animals of deception. If you have the "Gifts of the Holy
Spirit", the gifts will keep on giving. But, if you are
only "covering your tracks" like a spy with this label, you will have
hell to pay for the misrepresentation.)
CH. 46
Great is the mystery of marriage! For without it, the world would not
exist. Now the existence of the world [...], and the existence of
[...] marriage. Think of the [...] relationship, for it possesses
[...] power. Its image consists of a defilement. (The "Mystery of
Marriage is Rasa Tantra, or what the Bible calls: The Wedding Feast
or The Marriage Supper of the Lamb of God. Marriages of mere lust,
copulation and Apana or outflow of Bindu or Seed: Such "marriages"
are homosexual, because the two opposite sexes never merge into a
heterosexual act. When asked about the nature of the Last Daze symbol
of Sodom, Jesus never mentioned "gays", but complained only of the
heterosexual couples. Like the Apostle Paul complained: "I praise ye
not, for when ye come together, it is not to celebrate the Lord's
Supper.)
CH. 47
The forms of evil spirit include male ones and female ones. The males
are they which unite with the souls which inhabit a female form, but
the females are they which are mingled with those in a male form,
through one who was disobedient. And none shall be able to escape
them, since they detain him if he does not receive a male power or a
female power, the bridegroom and the bride. One receives them from
the mirrored bridal chamber. When the wanton women see a male sitting
alone, they leap down on him and play with him and defile him. So
also the lecherous men, when they see a beautiful woman sitting
alone, they persuade her and compel her, wishing to defile her. But
if they see the man and his wife sitting beside one another, the
female cannot come into the man, nor can the male come into the
woman. So if the image and the angel are united with one another,
neither can any venture to go into the man or the woman. (When man
and wife are wed in the "Mirrored Bridal Chamber" of Rasa Tantra,
they will find it much easier to resist the urge to copulate with
non-
Tantrics, who would defile the sex act into lust and materialism. In
the Book of Genesis, Adam and Eve fell from the Garden of Paradise
when they no longer ate from the Tree of Life, but ate forbidden,
deadly food. Since sex was no longer Tantric, Bindu or Prana was
secreted as Apana instead of recycled. That is how they began to
copulate, strictly for lust and child-bearing, and the endless
materialism to feed the family. This wrong diet and wrong sex, led to
physical decay and subsequent shame of the body. It was at this
moment of shame of one's nudity, that the Lord cast them out. They
still can't believe in Salvation Science, mostly from regarding the
bodily secretions with shame or disgust. This was the Fall of Mankind
from God's grace. In Tibetan terms, they no longer ate the Tsampa
Yeshe Norbu - the bread of the Wish-Fulfilling Gem.)
CH. 48
He who comes out of the world, and so can no longer be detained on
the grounds that he was in the world, evidently is above the desire
of the [...] and fear. He is master over [...]. He is superior to
envy. If [...] comes, they seize him and throttle him. And how will
this one be able to escape the great [...] powers? How will he be
able to [...]? There are some who say, "We are faithful" in order
that [...] the unclean spirits and the demons. For if they had the
Holy Spirit, no unclean spirit would cleave to them. Fear not the
flesh nor love it. If you fear it, it will gain mastery over you. If
you love it, it will swallow and paralyze you.

CH. 49
And so he dwells either in this world or in the Resurrection or in
the middle place. God forbid that I be found in there! In this world,
there is good and evil. Its good things are not good, and its evil
things not evil. But there is evil after this world which is truly
evil - what is called "the middle". It is death. While we are in this
world, it is fitting for us to acquire the Resurrection, so that when
we strip off the flesh, we may be found in rest and not walk in the
middle. For many go astray on the way. For it is good to come forth
from the world before one has sinned. (To be "Born Again of water and
Holy Spirit" is the "Resurrection of the body from degeneration unto
Regeneration". Death is evil, and the Longer, Healthier, Happier,
Holier Life is Righteousness.)
CH. 50
There are some who neither will nor have the power to; and others
who, if they will, do not profit; for they did not act since [...]
makes them sinners. And if they do not will, justice will elude them
in both cases: and it is always a matter of the will, not the act.
CH. 51
An apostolic man in a vision saw some people shut up in a house of
fire and bound with fiery [...], lying [...] flaming [...], them in
[...] faith [...]. And he said to them, "[...] able to be saved?"
[...], "They did not desire it. They received [...] punishment, what
is called 'the [...] darkness', because he [...]."
CH. 52
It is from water and fire (bioplasma and Holy Spirit) that the soul
and the spirit came into being. It is from water and fire and light
that the son of the bridal chamber (came into being). (The "Son of
the Bridal Chamber" is Genetic Rejuveantion.) The fire is the chrism,
the light is the fire. I am not referring to that (external) fire
which has no form, but to the other fire (of Inner Light) whose form
is white, which is bright and beautiful, and which gives beauty (both
physically and in the Inner Visions).
CH. 53
Truth did not come into the world naked, but it came in types and
images. The world will not receive truth in any other way. There is a
Rebirth and an image of rebirth. It is certainly necessary to be born
again through the image. Which one? Resurrection. (The "Resurrection
from the grave" is the Rebirth of the body.) The image must rise
again through the image. The bridal chamber (the Divine Union of man
and woman) and the image must enter through the image into the truth:
this is the Restoration (of the body). Not only must those who
produce the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, do
so, but have produced them for you. If one does not acquire them, the
name ("Christian") will also be taken from him. (Don't label yourself
a "Christian", unless you have attained the Resurrection or at least
plan to.) But one receives the unction (Water of Life) of the [...]
of the power of the cross. This power the apostles called "the right
and the left." (The two Rejoining as one: the original Holy Trinity.)
For this person is no longer a Christian but a Christ. (Jesus
said: "What I am, you will be...and more!" Christianity is not a
religion about Jesus, but is the religion OF Jesus, and Jesus never
worshipped himself, nor did he ever require such folly of any of His
followers. This heresy of personality worship, was intituted by
Emperor Constantine at the First Council of Nicaea. Since there can
be only one Way to Salvation, the Gnosis about the Marriage Supper of
the Water of Life, was suppressed and labeled a heresy. Give up your
idolatry of scapegoat saviors and devils, and realize it's all about
YOU being devil or Christ! Christ never saved. Christ IS Salvation.
We are saved not by Jesus but by the Christ, which must be placed
inside yourselves. Beware the obsequious sychophants who praise the
name of a man whose teachings they despise! Repent!)
CH. 54
The Lord did everything in a mystery (a secret doctrine, hidden in
symbols and parables) a baptism (Rasa Tantra) and a chrism (the Holy
Spirit) and a eucharist (the "flesh and blood of Christ", symbolized
as bread and wine) and a redemption (from sin) and a bridal chamber
(the Marriage Supper or Rasa Tantra). [...] he said, "I
came to make the (earthly) things below like the things above
(Spiritual, non-physical Inner Sight and Sound), and the things
outside (the world and the body) like those inside (the mind and the
Spirit worlds). I came to unite them (man and woman) in the place
(Nathabadpuri)." [...]here through types [...]and images (of the
Inner Light of Almighty God Within You). (Praise God! Amen.)
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 8
EDITED WITH COMMENTARIES BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA
CH. 55
Those who say, "There is a heavenly man and there is one above him"
are wrong. For it is the first of these two heavenly men, the one who
is revealed, that they call "the one who is below"; and he to whom
the hidden belongs is that one who is above him. For it would be
better for them to say, "The inner and outer, and what is outside the
outer". Because of this, the Lord called destruction the "the outer
darkness": there is not another outside of it. He said, "My Father
who is in secret". He said, "Go into your chamber and shut the door
behind you, and pray to your Father who is in secret" (Mt 6:6), the
one who is within them all. (The Holy Spirit, the Father, Christ, the
Kingdom of Heaven, the Longer and Happier Life, and Salvation from
Suffering, are all the same phenomenon Within You!) But that which is
within them all is the fullness. Beyond it, there is nothing else
within it. This is that of which they say, "That which is above
them".
CH. 56
Before Christ, some came from a place they were no longer able to
enter, and they went where they were no longer able to come out. Then
Christ came. Those who went in, he brought out, and those who went
out, he brought in.
CH. 57
When Eve was still with Adam, death did not exist. When she was
separated from him, death came into being. If he enters again and
attains his former self, death will be no more. (If there was a movie
about Adam and Eve, you could just run it backwards to find the Way
back to the "Garden of Eden", in which wishes were miraculously
granted! Adam and Eve were Immortal Beings, living in Paradise. Their
Immortality was due to the fact that they were "AS ONE FLESH" and
they ate only from the Tree of Life. When they ate forbidden food,
they also abandoned the practice of Rasa Tantra, in favor of
copulation. This resulted in their Genetic Separation, whereby
Intrinsic Mutagenesis began. The Bible states that there thus
came "AN ENMITY BETWEEN THEIR SEEDS", whereby they were
mutually "bruised". It was at this time that they were cast out of
their Paradisical State, and the Eight-Fold Suffering began. The
Lord's warning came true: "Eat of the tree of the knowledge of good
and evil, and you will die!" Inflow of "forbidden food" and Apana or
outflow of Bindu or Seed, are the two reasons whereby, like Adam and
Eve, WE ALL fall from the Glories of the Divine Resurrected Immortal
Body, with the Siddhis or "Gifts of the Holy Spirit", listed by St.
Paul in I Cor. 12, in the Holy Bible.)
CH. 58
"My God, my God, why, O Lord, have you forsaken me?" (Mk 15:34). It
was on the cross that he said these words, for he had departed from
that place. (We must accept that the Divinity can be more impersonal
in nature than we would like to admit. This explains, for example,
how six billion "Chosen People" can go up in smoke, without any help
from the Lord. Again and again, we see how our fate is tied more to
Natural Physical Law, and our applications of it, than the waving of
some distant genie's magic wand. We are ultimately responsible for
our fate and the fate of others. Jesus said: "Ye speak of dead men
and deny the Living One standing before you". You appeal to unknown
spirits for Salvation, but deny the Salvation Science, which is right
here in front of your face! You expect others to "save" you from what
you haven't yet thought about, and you refuse to really SAVE
YOURSELVES. "The Lord helps those who help themselves.")
CH. 59
[...] who has been begotten through him who [...] from God.
The [...] from the dead. [...] to be, but now [...] perfect. [...]
flesh, but this [...] is true flesh. [...] is not true, but [...]
only possess an image of the true.
CH. 60
A bridal chamber is not for the animals, nor is it for the slaves,
nor for defiled women; but it is for free men and virgins.
(The "Bridal Chamber" is another name for the "Marriage Supper of the
Lamb of God". Since it eschews the outward flow of Bindu, copulation
is not usually practiced, unless one can retrieve the seed, by
obvious methods: Since Rasa Tantra Sadhana abjures the outflow, as in
copulation, it is for women who have never copulated nor given birth
to children, both of which are definitions of the word, "Virgin".
The "Son of a Virgin", if meant symbolically, would mean the "Inner
Child" of the Resurrection of the Flesh, a "Child" not Conceived by
copulation, and never delivered from the womb.)
CH. 61
Through the Holy Spirit we are indeed begotten again, but we are
begotten through Christ in the two. (We are Re-Begotten Within Us.
This activates the Holy Spirit and Its Siddhis. This Inner Re-
Conception is from Rasa Tantra Sadhana - the "Wedding Feast"
or "Marriage Supper". Thus, "we are Begotten through Christ in the
two" - man and woman!) We are anointed through the Spirit. (We
are "Born Again of water and Spirit". When we were (Re)begotten
(within ourselves), we (man and woman) were (genetically) united ("As
One Flesh"). None can see himself either in water or in a mirror
without (Inner) Light. Nor again can you see in Light without mirror
or water. (Man and woman are joined in the water of the "Mirrored
Bridal Chamber". Two "mirrors" reflect each others' Genetic Efflux.)
For this reason, it is fitting to baptize in the two, in the light
and the water. Now the light is the chrism. (St. John the Baptist
said: "I Baptize you with water, but one comes after me, who will
Baptize you with fire." As we have seen, even long before the Bible,
the "Fire" or Agni, represents the Inner heat, Light and Life of the
Holy Spirit: The same "fire", whereby it was proven that Elijah's was
the correct sacrifice. The only "sacrifice" he put on his "altar" was
water. His success angered Queen Jezebel "the whore or puta", thus
endangering Elijah's life. "Baptize in the two", calls to mind that
St. Peter said that "Noah's Ark was a similitude for Baptism",
whereby "they entered two by two and set out upon the water".)
CH. 62
There were three buildings specifically for sacrifice in Jerusalem.
The one facing the west was called "The Holy". Another, facing south,
was called "The Holy of the Holy". The third, facing east, was
called "The Holy of the Holies", the place where only the high priest
enters. Baptism is "the Holy" building. Redemption is the "Holy of
the Holy". "The Holy of the Holies" is the Bridal Chamber. Baptism
includes the Resurrection and the Redemption; the Redemption (takes
place) in the Bridal Chamber. But the Bridal Chamber is in that which
is superior to [...] you will not find [...] are those who pray [...]
Jerusalem who [...] Jerusalem, [...] those called the "Holy of the
Holies" [...] the veil was rent, [...] Bridal Chamber except the
image [...] above. Because of this, its veil was rent from top to
bottom. For it was fitting for some from below to go upward.
(The "Bridal Chamber" is Rasa Tantra. By practicing it, one attains
the Resurrection of the Body from the "grave" of sensescence and
death. This is also the "Forgiveness of Sins". The Holy Bible
states: "The wages of sin is death". When you are no longer dying,
you are no longer paying the dues, and when you no longer must pay
for bad karma, the "debt" has been removed. Look for Salvation where
it really is, or you will never find it!)
CH. 63
The powers do not see those who are clothed in the perfect light, and
consequently are not able to detain them. One will clothe himself in
this light sacramentally in the union. (By the Genetic Sacraments of
the Holy Eucharist, the Genetic Rebirth and the activated Inner Light
are attained. The key word is "UNION": the Union of two bioplasmas,
JOINWD AS ONE! This SEXUAL UNION is at the core of all Hermetic
religions and philosophies.)
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 9
EDITED WITH COMMENTARIES BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA
CH. 64
If the woman had not separated from the man, she should not die with
the man. His separation became the beginning of death. Because of
this, Christ came to repair the separation, which was from the
beginning, and again unite the two, and to give life to those who
died as a result of the separation, and unite them. But the woman is
united to her husband in the bridal chamber. Indeed, those who have
united in the bridal chamber will no longer be separated. Thus Eve
separated from Adam because it was not in the bridal chamber that she
united with him. ("Uniting" by copulation, is not acceptable for
attaining the Resurrection of the Body from degeneration unto
Regeneration. The "Bridal Chamber" symbolizes Rasa Tantra Sadhana, as
well as the results of this practice, and the result is Salvation
from Suffering by attaining the Longer, Healthier, Happier, Holier
Life, which can only be had by the Genetic Union of the bioplasma of
man and woman. Perhaps my explanation sounds like the name of Yogi
Bhajan's group, "3HO", meaning "Happier Healthier, Holier". It is
gratifying that an old Sikh has shared some of my perspectives.)
CH. 65
The soul of Adam came into being by means of a breath. The partner of
his soul is the spirit. His mother is the thing that was given to
him. His soul was taken from him and replaced by a spirit. When he
was united (to the spirit), he spoke words incomprehensible to the
powers. They envied him [...] spiritual partner [...] hidden [...]
opportunity [...] for themselves alone [...] bridal chamber, so that
[...]. (The "Bridal Chamber", symbolizing the "Marriage Supper",
becomes the single most repetitive theme in this gospel, and for a
very good reason: It is the only thing one needs in order to attain
Salvation.)
CH. 66
Jesus appeared [...] Jordan - the fullness of the Kingdom of Heaven.
He who was begotten before everything, was begotten anew. He who was
once anointed, was anointed anew. He who was redeemed, in turn
redeemed (others). (In the Book of Exodus, "crossing the Red Sea or
the Jordan" symbolizes Prana joining in the Central Channel of
Shushumna, thereby causing the Chi or Kundalini to rise to the head.
The Spirit was "Begotten" before the body, and is therefore
the "First-Born of the Chosen People". Ironically, our Second Birth,
activates the same Spirit, which was Conceived by our First Birth,
which was purely in the Spirit, in this allegorical case. Tjhe Way I
teach it is, we are all products of our First Birth, and we are
waiting to receive our Second Birth, which is to be "Born Again". We
Beget the Spirit by Re-Begetting the body. This is what we call
the "Dwij" or "Twice-Born" Brahmins or "priestly types". Although
Prana often rises without Male-Female Union, it will not be complete
until the Two are As One, which will be the fullness of the Kingdom
of Heaven Within Us.)
CH. 67
Indeed, one must utter a mystery. The Father of everything united
with the virgin who came down, and a fire shone for him on that day.
He appeared in the great bridal chamber. Therefore his body came into
being on that very day. It left the Bridal Chamber as one who came
into being from the bridegroom and the bride. So Jesus established
everything in it through these. It is fitting for each of the
disciples to enter into his rest. (This is a "Mystery", because you
probably didn't know about it until Swamiji told you. If it remains
incomprehensible, it is only because you have some kind of mental or
emotional taboo against it. The "Fire" of Holy Spirit is kindled
within us, by the Union of the Father and the Mother. In this
case, "father" might mean the Tantric Man. The "Resurrected" Body
comes from the Union of man and woman in the "Bridal Chamber" of Rasa
Tantra, which is the main teaching of our Beloved Lord Jesus Christ,
whereby we find rest and repose away from Suffering.)
CH. 68
Adam came into being from two virgins, from the Spirit and from the
virgin earth. Christ therefore, was born from a virgin to rectify the
Fall which occurred in the beginning. (The Divine Resurrected Body is
itself that which "rectifies" us from the "fall". Jesus cannot save
you, but He can tell you how you might Save yourselves. A virgin is a
woman who has never copulated. Lilian Storey, the librarian at the
London Theosophical Society, told me tha, in ancient Hebrew, a virgin
was a woman who has never born a child! Therefore, the "Virgin Birth"
or "Immaculate Conception" is one for virgins who have never
copulated nor given outer birth to an outer child. Jesus taught that
one should fast on Genetic Efflux, in order to Sexually Re-Unite with
one's spouse, for the purpose of Physical Regeneration, which
activates the Holy Spirit. Can you now read this into the Biblical
story of Adam and Eve?)
CH. 69
There are two trees growing in Paradise. The one bears animals, the
other bears men. Adam ate from the tree which bore animals. He became
an animal and he brought forth animals. For this reason the children
of Adam worship animals. The tree [...] fruit is [...] increased.
[...] ate the [...] fruit of the [...] bears men, [...] man. [...]
God created man. [...] men create God. That is the way it is in the
world - men make gods and worship their creation. It would be fitting
for the gods to worship men! (All animals are degenerating and
eventually die. Not so for people who have the Righteousness to
comprehend the True Revealed Gospel, desire its fruit, practice it,
and attain the Great Merit of an Immortal Body.)
CH. 70
Surely what a man accomplishes depends on his abilities. For this
reason, we refer to one`s accomplishments as "abilities". Among his
accomplishments are his children. They originate in a moment of ease.
Thus his abilities determine what he may accomplish, but this ease is
clearly evident in the children. You will find that this applies
directly to the image. Here is the man made after the image
accomplishing things with his physical strength, but producing his
children with ease.
CH. 71
In this world, the slaves serve the free. In the Kingdom of Heaven,
the free will minister to the slaves: the (Tantric) children of the
Bridal Chamber will minister to the (non-Tantric) children of the
(carnal) marriage. The children of the Bridal Chamber have just one
name: rest. Altogether, they need take no other form, because they
have contemplation, [...]. They are numerous [...] in the things
[...] the glories [...]. (The Resurrected Body puts the mind in a
place which would normally take many years or even lifetimes of
meditation to accomplish. That is why we teach Hermetic Science
instead of the purely meditative disciplines of Zen or
Theravada "Buddhism". In the east, such as in the Hatha Yoga
Pradipika, Tantra was called the "short-cut" to Salvation, but Jesus
taught that it was the only Way. You should find out about Tantra by
practicing it long and hard, and as well as possible, for many
will "backslide" from such difficult austerities. You must have faith
in the method and its eminent results, in order to complete a
difficult Tantric Fast. Group support can be crucial for many, who
are otherwise trapped in an impossible situation, hostile to
Salvation Science, and dangerous for Resurrected Saints! The
International Syndicate of Churches, America, and their subordinate
nations should beware the fact that, by opposing Salvation Science,
they are in opposition to their own survival! They seem to be blinded
about this fact by their relish for harming known helpers, and
gloating about how much damage they caused without retribution. Such
a "principality and power" is certainly not worthy to live in the
coming world, which can no longer survive without peace and
Righteousness. And such a demonic nation is not fit to be
the "international policeman" of nuclear disarmament. Is it not
fitting that those who know how to survive should warn the
world: "Join us or die"?)

CH. 72
Those [...] go down into the water. (It's all about water. That is
why Egyptian art has so many Nile motifs. Literally, we are Baptized
into the Bridal Chamber, in order to attain Androgynous Bioplasma, as
was the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. In this manner, and not by
Christ's murder and spilled blood: By Living Blood Within Us, and not
by dead, we are "Raised from the dead", as it were. Originally, Adam
and Eve were "as one flesh", but from wrong diet and sex, there came
an "enmity between their seeds", which was their genetic separation.
For Salvation, the "Seed" of man and woman must be Rejoined, as one
perfectly mixed bioplasma, thus causing the Meiosis of the New
Genome, with its Rejuvenating, healing and psychic or psychedelic
effect.) [...] out (of the water), will consecrate it, [...] they who
have [...] in his name. For he said, "Thus we should fulfill all
righteousness." (Mt. 3:15)
CH. 73
Those who say they will die first and then rise are in error. If they
do not first receive the Resurrection (God Within) while they live,
when they die they will receive nothing. (This is important, for it
contradicts the popular notion that "salvation is only after we die".
And, of course, after you die, you can never return to this world to
complain that you were deceived by false theologians and robbed of
your energy, time and money by this false religion. Therefore,
this "after death salvation" is the perfect scam, for the scammer can
never get caught! Until now! And that is why the entire so-
called "Christian" west is so scandalized, for they themselves are
herein proven wrong. Of course, if you have no Righteousness, you can
simply go into a state of denial about those facts you choose not to
acknowledge. You may even convince the gullible, the naive and the
cowardly, that you are right. You may even deceive yourself into
thinking you are right. There is only one flaw in this lack of logic:
You aren't correct, and you will not be Saved, until you become more
Righteous.) So also when speaking about baptism they say, "Baptism is
a great thing," because if people receive it they will live (and not
die). (This is the Baptism in the Bridal Chamber, in which the
diseases and the degeneration of the body are cured, thus activating
the Consciousness of the Holy Spirit, so that the Gnostic, Taoist or
Tantric Couple, may experience a Longer, Healthier, Happier, Holier
Life, as was the wish of our Beloved Lord Jesus Christ.)
CH. 74
Philip the apostle said, "Joseph the carpenter planted a garden
because he needed wood for his trade. It was he who made the cross
from the trees which he planted. His own offspring hung on that which
he planted. His offspring was Jesus, and the planting was the cross."
But the Tree of Life is in the middle of the Garden. (This is the
Biblical "Well in Midian" or "middle" of the body. When the Hatha
Yoga Pradipika states: "Drink from the mid-stream", it speaks of
this "Tree of Life in the middle of the Garden" or middle of the
body.) However, it is from the olive tree that we got the chrism, and
from the chrism, the resurrection. (I don't mean to contradict what
Jesus said, but what he meant was: "It is from the "Tree", or body,
or Body "Water of Life", that we Resurrect our bodies and activate
the Chrism or Inner Light and Sound of Almighty God Within Us.)
CH. 75
This world is a corpse-eater. All the things eaten in it themselves
die also. Truth is a life-eater. Therefore no one nourished by truth
will die. It was from that place that Jesus came and brought food. To
those who so desired, he gave life, that they might not die. (Why
can't you believe He was speaking, literally, about the physical body
not dying? If you eat dead things, they tend to kill you, but if you
eat your own Living Genetic Efflux, you will become Rejuvenated by
the Living Waters you consumed. Like the Holy Bible states: "Renew
thy youth, like the Phoenix". This mythological falcon or eagle, from
which Phoenecia got its name, was said to have the power to renew its
youth. Elsewhere in the Nag Hammadi texts, Jesus said: "When you ate
dead things, you made them alive in your bodies. But when you eat
Living Food, what will you do?" You will attain Living Bodies from
imbibing "Living Waters". See "New Flesh" in your Biblical
Concordance.)
CH. 76
God [...] garden. Man [...] garden. There are [...] and [...] of God.
[...] The things which are in [...] I wish. This garden is the place
where they will say to me, "[...] eat this or do not eat that, just
as you wish." In the place where I will eat all things is the Tree of
Knowledge. That one killed Adam, but here the Tree of Knowledge made
men alive. The law was the tree. It has power to give the knowledge
of good and evil. It neither removed him from evil, nor did it set
him in the good, but it created death for those who ate of it. For
when he said, "Eat this, do not eat that", it became the beginning of
death. (The "Tree of Life" first appears in ancient Egyptian art,
with the Sky Goddess, "Nut", meaning "female water", pouring water
from a tree to a man below, who is drinking it. Indeed, the True
Revealed Gospel of Jesus, is all about right and wrong foods. Tibetan
legend has the story of the "Medicine Buddha", in the "Medicine
Jungle" under the "Bodhi Tree", where he was fed by the "Medicine
Woman" for four years. Hebrew scriptures state: "In those days of
old, many sat under their own fig tree". The Book of Mormon has the
Last Daze prophecy of many who approached the Tree of life, but were
prone to "backslide", no doubt due to the difficult austerity of
fasting on Genetic Efflux, while an arrogant world made fun of them,
followed by the destruction of those arrogant beings. It may
be "stretching the point" to add that the Immortal Enoch crossed over
the Jerusalem Wall by the branch of a tree. Both Enoch and Elijah
were taken up into Heaven without the death of their bodies.)
CH. 77
The Chrism (Holy Spirit) is superior to Baptism, for it is from the
word "Chrism" that we have been called "Christians," certainly not
because of the word "baptism". And it is because of the chrism
that "the Christ" has his name. For the Father anointed the Son, and
the Son anointed the apostles, and the apostles anointed us. He who
has been anointed possesses everything. He possesses the
Resurrection, the (Inner) Light, the cross, the Holy Spirit. The
Father gave him this in the Bridal Chamber; he merely accepted (the
gift). The Father (Holy Spirit) was in the Son (Rebirth) and the Son
in the Father. This is the Kingdom of Heaven. (When God and man are
joined as One, that is the Kingdom of Heaven Within Us.)
CH. 78
The Lord said it well: "Some have entered the Kingdom of Heaven
laughing, and they have come out [...] because [...] a Christian,
[...]. And as soon as [...] went down into the water, he came [...]
everything (of this world), [...] because he [...] a trifle, but
[...] full of contempt for this [...] the Kingdom of Heaven [...] If
he despises [...], and scorns it as a trifle, [...] out laughing. So
it is also with the bread and the cup and the oil, even though there
is another one superior to these. (These texts were discovered in a
cave in Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in 1945. The Bedouin discoverers of these
texts destroyed some of them, and, not unlike the Dead Sea Scrolls,
these texts were also damaged by time itself, they being close to
2,000 years old.)
CH. 79
The world came about through a mistake. For he who created it wanted
to create it Imperishable and Immortal. He fell short of attaining
his desire. For the world never was Imperishable, nor, for that
matter, was he who made the world. For things are not Imperishable,
but Sons (Resurrected Bodies) are. Nothing will be able to receive
(physical) Imperishability if it does not first become a Son. But he
who has not the ability to receive, how much more will he be unable
to give? (Those who don't give, find it difficult to receive. And
those who have received no help from others, will neither have
anything to give to them in return. I have wanted to help the
starving famine victims of Africa, but since the Americans boycott me
instead of supporting me, I have no funds whereby to be of
assistance. In other words, the world is getting back the very
nothing it gave, because, as Rev. Ike, of the Church of Mammon
said: "Nothing from nothing gets nothing." Perhaps this might help
you to understand why you are not Saved from Suffering. Had you
wanted Salvation, you would have asked for it, which is the only Way
you ever would have received it.)

CH. 80
The cup of prayer contains wine and water, since it is appointed as
the type of the blood for which thanks is given. (As we have long
taught, the wine of the Holy Eucharist and the water of Baptism, are
but symbols for the blood of Christ, which itself is the Water of
Life and the resultant Mixed Bioplasma of man and wife.) And it is
full of the Holy Spirit (the New Genome activates the Kundalini, Chi,
or Holy Spirit), and it belongs to the wholly perfect (Reborn or
Regenerated) man. When we drink this (Genetic Efflux), we shall
receive for ourselves the perfect man (Resurrected Body). The Living
Water is a body (bioplasma and Genetic Efflux). It is necessary that
we put on the living man (the Wedding Garment of the Resurrected
Body). Therefore, when he is about to go down into the water (to mix
male and female bioplasma), he unclothes (puts off the degenerating
flesh) himself, in order that he may put on the Living Man (to
be "Born Again of water and Spirit").
CH. 81
A horse sires a horse, a man begets man, a (man of) God brings forth
a God (Holy Spirit Within). Compare the bridegroom and the bride.
(The Teachings of our Beloved Lord Jesus, are all about Genetically
Rejoining man and woman, who were genetically separated at the time
of the "Fall".) They have come from the [...]. No Jew [...] has
existed. And [...] from the Jews. [...] Christians [...] these [...]
are referred to as "The chosen people of [...],"and "The true man"
and "Son of Man" and "the seed of the Son of Man". (Instead of an
outer son, the "Eldest Son of God" is Rebirth, instead of Birth. That
Way the Begetter and the Begotten are as one. Jesus said: "The father
and the Son are as one". Many of his parables have several meanings:
The Son on Earth is joined with the father in Heaven, and the Son or
Begotten is joined with the father or Begetter.) This true race is
renowned in the world [...] that the Sons of the Bridal Chamber
dwell. (The "Sons of the Bridal Chamber are those Reborn from the
Marriage Supper of the Lamb of God. Those of the Resurrected Immortal
Body can be thought of as an artificial evolution of the race or
species to a higher being, genetically similar to a Newly Conceived
Embryo. Embryonic Stem Cell Therapy is based on the same Divine
Principle of the Efficacy of Embryonic DNA.)
CH. 82
Whereas in this world the union is one of husband with wife - a case
of strength complemented by weakness(?) - in the Aeon (eternal
realm), the form of the Union is different, although we refer to them
by the same names. There are other names, however; they are superior
to every other name that is named and are stronger than the strong.
For where there is a show of strength, there those who excel in
strength appear. These (man and woman) are not separate things, but
both of them are this one single thing (Androgynous Being). This
(other one) is the (genetically separate) one which will not be able
to rise above the heart of flesh.
CH. 83
Is it not necessary for all those who possess everything to know
themselves? Some indeed, if they do not know themselves, will not
enjoy what they possess. But those who have come to know themselves
will enjoy their possessions. (Happiness must come from within.
Otherwise, all the money in the world can't buy it.)
CH. 84
Not only will they be unable to detain the Perfect Man, but they will
not be able to see him, for if they see him, they will detain him.
There is no other way for a person to acquire this quality except by
putting on the Perfect Light and he too becoming Perfect Light.
(Jesus speaks of the Transmutation of the physical body to Perfect
Light, whereby He could change his appearance or even disappear! This
was demonstrated in His "Transfiguration on the mount".) He
who has put it (the Transmutated Body) on will enter [...] (the
Kingdom of Heaven). This is the Perfect [...] (Resurrected Man) that
we[...] (know we must?) become [...] before we leave [...] (our
present state of suffering?). Whoever receives everything
[...] hither [...] be able [...] that place, but will [...] the
Middle as imperfect. Only Jesus knows the end of this person.
CH. 85
The priest is completely holy, down to his very body. For if he has
taken the bread, he will consecrate it. Or the cup or anything else
that he gets, he will consecrate. Then how will he not consecrate the
body also?
CH. 86
By perfecting the Water of Baptism, Jesus emptied it of death. (By
Rasa Kriya or Blood Purification, one can become Physically
Immortal.) Thuswe do go down into the water (purify the bioplasma),
but we do not go down into (decay and) death, in order that we may
not be poured out into the (Holy) Spirit of the world (while in the
body). When that spirit blows, it brings the winter. When the Holy
Spirit breathes, the summer comes.
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 12
EDITED WITH COMMENTARIES BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA
CH. 87
He who has knowledge of the truth is a free man, but the free man
does not sin, for "He who sins is the slave of sin" (Jn. 8:34). Truth
is the mother, knowledge the father. (The bride and groom are
foremost in Hermetic religions.) Those who think that sinning
does not apply to them are called "free" by the world. Knowledge of
the truth merely makes such people arrogant, which is what the
words, "it makes them free" mean. It even gives them a sense of
superiority over the whole world. But "Love builds up" (1 Cor. 8:1).
(There has been some who approached the Spirit, hoping to misuse the
Powers thereof for selfish purposes. They can be thought of as
the "First-Born of the Egyptians", having entered not by "the Blood
of the Passover Lamb between the two...", but by some other means,
whereby their bodies were not adequately cleansed of carbon to attain
the Transmutation of the Body. They are often used for dubious
purposes, such as telepathic espionage. They can be thought of as
the "False Prophet" in the Book of Revelations). In fact, he who is
really free, through knowledge, is a slave, because of love for those
who have not yet been able to attain to the freedom of knowledge
(Gnosis). Knowledge (of the Revealed Gospel) makes them capable of
becoming free (from Suffering). Love never calls something its own,
[...] it [...] possess [...]. It never says,"This is yours" or "This
is mine," but "All these are yours". (This is part of the intrinsic
sense of the Renunciation of worldly goods. Elsewhere, Jesus
said: "Keep no possessions on earth". "Those in the Holy Spirit blow
around like the wind." "The birds and the flowers don't work, but
does the Father not take care of them?" With the powers of mind-over-
matter, known in Tibetan as the Yeshe Norbu or Wish-Fulfilling Gem,
indeed one's every wish, within reason, is fulfilled! The granting of
every wish like the Genie of Alladdin's Magic Lamp: This Wish-
Granting and Physical Immortality are the two greatest and most
neglected benefits of the Siddhis or "Gifts of the Holy Spirit",
mentioned in I Cor. 12. The Higher Consciousness generates great
bliss, resulting in Righteous, Generous, Unselfish, Altruistic
Blessings upon one's fellow man. Love is Bliss turned outwards.)
Spiritual love is wine (symbol of the Water of Life) and fragrance.
All those who anoint themselves with it (practice Rasa Tantra) take
pleasure in (from) it. While those who are anointed (Baptized) are
present, those nearby also profit (from the beneficence, blessings
and miraculous gifts of the Resurrected Saints of God). If those
(Resurrected Beings) anointed with ointment (of purified Bioplasma)
withdraw from them and leave, then those not anointed, who merely
stand nearby, still remain in their bad odor (unsaved). (For example,
when Jesus disappeared, his ability to intervene on our behalf was
severely limited. That is why we should create more individuals of
such high quality as Jesus. We can cure ouselves of many diseases
with Genetic Efflux, or we can be cured by someone who is
thus "Anointed in the Bridal Chamber".) The Samaritan gave nothing
but wine and oil to the wounded man. It is nothing other than the
ointment. It healed the wounds, for "love covers a multitude of sins"
(1 Ps. 4:8). (Wine and oil are ancient symbols for the Waters of
Life.)
CH. 88
The children a woman bears resemble the man who loves her. If her
husband loves her, then they resemble her husband. If it is an
adulterer, then they resemble the adulterer. Frequently, if a woman
sleeps with her husband out of necessity, while her heart is with the
adulterer with whom she usually has intercourse, the child she will
bear is born resembling the adulterer. Now you who live together with
the Son of God, love not the world, but love the Lord, in order that
those you will bring forth may not resemble the world, but may
resemble the Lord. (Those Reborn from the DNA of their spouses: When
the Re-Conception occurs, they will take on half of each partner's
chromosomes, with the corresponding physical characteristics. It is
interesting how all this mimics ordinary marriage and childbirth:
Only, this time, the Divine "Child" is the Genetic Rejuvenation
Within them! One might argue that this "Son" might, just as likely,
be a "Daughter". I prefer to cause this Androgynous Embryo Within,
the "Only Child of God". At present, we are but children of people.)
CH. 89
The human being has intercourse with the human being. The horse has
intercourse with the horse, the ass with the ass. Members of a race
usually have associated with those of like race. So spirit mingles
with spirit, and thought consorts with thought, and light shares with
light. If you are born a human being, it is the human being who will
love you. If you become a spirit, it is the spirit which will be
joined to you. If you become thought, it is thought which will mingle
with you. If you become light, it is the light which will share with
you. If you become one of those who belong above, it is those who
belong above who will rest upon you. If you become horse or ass or
bull or dog or sheep, or another of the animals which are outside or
below, then neither human being nor spirit nor thought nor light will
be able to love you. Neither those who belong above nor those who
belong within will be able to rest in you, and you have no part in
them. (Similarly, the unrighteous behave as animals, and have no
place with the Righteous. Jesus said: "Be not unequally yoked. For,
what purpose does Righteousness have with unrighteousness?" It is a
crying shame how the Righteous have suffered under the churches, the
USA, and their subordinate nations. The perception has not escaped us
that the reactions of the unrighteous to Theological Truth, is like a
lower species trying to learn the same Knowledge as humans, being
incapable of understanding simple Hermetic philosophy. Unfortunately,
we had to upset many with something they don't deserve, in order to
Save but a few.)
CH. 90
He who is a slave against his will, will be able to become free. He
who has become free by favor of his master, and has sold himself into
slavery, will no longer be able to be free. (In the case of the
Ministry of Salvation Science, you yourselves decide if you deserve
to be free or not. If you have willfully enslaved yourselves to the
bondage of the Eight-Fold Suffering, you have declared to God that
you do not deserve Salvation. If you are a "Chosen Person", enslaved
to the Eight-Fold Suffering against your will, you may now begin
your "Exodus" from bondage in the man-made hell, symbolized as
Egypt.)
CH. 91
Farming in the world requires the cooperation of four essential
elements. A harvest is gathered into the barn only as a result of the
natural action of water, earth, wind and light. (This teaching
originated with Zarathustra, who taught that the Dharma is like a
peanut, which is us. The Seed needs only the right air, water, sun,
and earth, in order to flourish: A good concept for those who wish to
Re-Engender themselves.) God's farming likewise has four elements -
faith, hope, love, and knowledge. Faith is our earth, that in which
we take root. And hope is the water through which we are nourished.
Love is the air through which we grow. Knowledge, then, is the light
through which we ripen. Grace exists in four ways: it is earthborn;
it is heavenly; [...] the highest heaven; [...] in [...]. (I can
think of two Ways to Engender God's Grace: The practice of Rasa
Tantra or the blessings of an accomplished Rasa Tantric. Those who
despair at the difficulty of Rasa Tantra or Urine Therapy, in order
to cure disease or decay, can still rely on the Shakti Pat of a
Tantric Master to achieve the same ends. We should also consider the
Experimental Protocol, known as Project Genesis, the intravenous
joining of a man and woman of the same blood type. But one should be
aware that the body will never be completely purified without
fasting.)
THE GOSPEL OF PHILIP, PART 13
EDITED WITH COMMENTARIES BY SWAMI TANTRASANGHA
CH. 92
Blessed is the one who on no occasion caused a soul [...]
(discomfort). That person is Jesus Christ. He came to the whole place
and did not burden anyone. Therefore, blessed is the one who is like
this, because he is a perfect man. For the Word tells us that this
kind is difficult to define. How shall we be able to accomplish such
a great thing? How will he give everyone comfort? (By the
Resurrection of the body into the Holy Spirit.) Above all, it is not
proper to cause anyone distress - whether the person is great or
small, unbeliever or believer - and then give comfort only to those
who take satisfaction in good deeds. Some find it advantageous to
give comfort to the one who has fared well. He who does good deeds
cannot give comfort to such people, for he does not seize whatever he
likes. He is unable to cause distress, however, since he does not
afflict them. To be sure, the one who fares well sometimes causes
people distress - not that he intends to do so; rather, it is their
own wickedness which is responsible for their distress. He who
possesses the qualities (of the perfect man) bestows joy upon the
good. Some, however, are terribly distressed by all this. (In the
Book of Mormon, the people complained to Nephi: "You speak hard
things". Nephi answered that it was only hard because they made it
hard. In order to reach the Righteous, the True Revealed Gospel had
to pass through many unrighteous minds and hands. In order to Save a
few, many had to distress themselves about the simple fact that they
don't deserve Salvation. Otherwise, they would have desired it, and
would have attained it.)
CH. 93
There was a householder who had every conceivable thing, be it son or
slave or cattle or dog or pig or corn or barley or chaff or grass or
[...] or meat and acorn. Now he was a sensible fellow, and he knew
what the food of each one was. He served the children bread [...]. He
served the slaves [...] and meal. And he threw barley and chaff and
grass to the cattle. He threw bones to the dogs, and to the pigs he
threw acorns and slop. (This reminds me of St. Albert's advice to St.
Thomas Aquinas: Don't give the wrong food to the wrong animal, or
there will be problems. The unavoidable giving of this Gnosis to all,
has created danger for the Saints of God, at the hands of the evil.
The Water of Life is fed to Saints, while hog slop is thrown into the
pig waller. Like Jesus said: "Don't throw pearls before swine". But,
of course, in order to publish this New Dispensation of Gnosis, we
had no alternative but to do exactly that.) Compare the disciple of
God: if he is a sensible fellow, he understands what discipleship is
all about. The bodily forms will not deceive him, but he will look at
the condition of the soul of each one and speak with him. (Dr. Martin
Luther King had a dream in which men would be judged, not by outward
appearances, but by "the content of their character". In order to
find the Truth, you must first see the deceptions, for where there is
the Light of Truth, the shadows of falsehood will not be far away.)
There are many animals in the world which are in a human form. (Those
who do not have Righteousness, are as animals in human form. These
negative animalistic character attributes are: 1. Ignorance instead
of Knowledge, 2. Illogical Irrationality instead of Reason, 3.
Deceptive Dishonesty instead of Honorable Integrity, 4. Selfish
Arrogance instead of Philanthropic Humility, and, 5. Wrathful Hate
instead of Unselfish Love. In dealing with them, it indeed seems like
the hopelessness of preaching to a less intelligent species. The
outer forms, words, and deceptions are well-discerned by the wise,
who are thus able to avoid many traps and much entrapment by these
evil harm-doers.) When he identifies them, to the swine he will throw
acorns, to the cattle he will throw barley and chaff and grass, to
the dogs he will throw bones. To the slaves he will give only the
elementary lessons, to the children he will give the complete
instruction. (Those who are immediately against Salvation Science,
will generally remain unsaved for additional millennia of time, in
forms and places, usually less pleasant than this world, where
Salvation is freely offerred to so many undeserving souls, who, like
the fictional "Dracula", have an unfounded aversion to the "cross" of
Jesus and His Gospel of the "cross-breathing" of man and mate.)
CH. 94
There is the Son of Man and there is the son of the Son of Man. The
Lord is the Son of Man, and the son of the Son of Man is he who
creates through the Son of Man. The Son of Man received from God the
capacity to create. He also has the ability to beget. He who has
received the ability to create is a creature. He who has received the
ability to beget is an offspring. He who creates cannot beget. He who
begets also has power to create. Now they say, "He who creates
begets". But his so-called "offspring" is merely a creature. Because
of [...] of birth, they are not his offspring but [...]. He who

he who creates, creates openly. But one who begets, begets children
in private.
CH. 95
No one can know when the husband and the wife have intercourse with
one another, except the two of them. Indeed, marriage in the world is
a mystery for those who have taken a wife. If there is a hidden
quality to the marriage of defilement, how much more is the undefiled
marriage a true mystery! It is not fleshly, but pure. It belongs not
to desire, but to the will. It belongs not to the darkness or the
night, but to the day and the light. If a marriage is open to the
public, it has become prostitution, and the bride plays the harlot
not only when she is impregnated by another man, but even if she
slips out of her bedroom and is seen. Let her show herself only to
her father and her mother, and to the friend of the bridegroom and
the sons of the bridegroom. These are permitted to enter every day
into the Bridal Chamber. But let the others yearn just to listen to
her voice and to enjoy her ointment, and let them feed from the
crumbs that fall from the table, like the dogs. Bridegrooms and
brides belong to the Bridal Chamber. No one shall be able to see the
bridegroom with the bride unless he become such a one. (Jesus said
there are two kinds of marriages: Marriages in the Light, which are
the Tantric Union of the "Marriage Supper of the Lamb of God",
mentioned in the Book of Revelations. The other is the
usual "marriage in the night": A whorehouse contract between a horny
man and a materialistic "whore". Seed is poured out into lust and
procreation or just simply thrown out or spilled on the ground,
following ejaculation from vented lust. The Bible has a story of a
man who was cursed, because he ejaculated his semen onto the ground.
With all this Apana or outflow of semen and urine, the unregenerate
couple might soon have a new-born child, thus increasing nuptial
materialism, in order to feed more mouths, while Salvation from
Suffering becomes ever more elusive for the slaves of unregenerate
bondage.)

CH. 96
When Abraham [...] that he was to see what he was to see, he
circumcised the flesh of the foreskin, teaching us that it is proper
to destroy the flesh.
CH. 97
Most things in the world, as long as their inner parts are hidden,
stand upright and live. If they are revealed, they die, as is
illustrated by the visible man: as long as the intestines of the man
are hidden, the man is alive; when his intestines are exposed and
come out of him, the man will die. So also with the tree: while its
root is hidden, it sprouts and grows. If its root is exposed, the
tree dries up. So it is with every birth that is in the world, not
only with the revealed but with the hidden. (The "Hidden Birth Within
You", which is Rebirth, will give you Renewed Life, whereas, the
birth of an outer baby by a non-virgin, is a sign of Apana or outflow
of Bindu or Seed, which will shorten one's life.) For so long as the
root of wickedness is hidden, it is strong. But when it is
recognized, it is dissolved. When it is revealed, it perishes. That
is why the Word says, "Already the axe is laid at the root of the
trees" (Mt 3:10). (To cut off the wicked from the world, as
a "Reverse Curse" for the wicked having done this same thing to the
Righteous. This happens as the result of their own karma. The
Righteous never harm anyone. Evil people, by the Law of Cause and
Effect, fall into the same traps they laid for others. Would that
they had been Righteous, but, as anyone can see, they are not good.)
It will not merely cut - what is cut sprouts again - but the ax
penetrates deeply, until it brings up the root. Jesus pulled out the
root of the whole place, while others did it only partially. As for
ourselves, let each one of us dig down after the root of evil which
is within one, and let one pluck it out of one's heart from the root.
It will be plucked out if we recognize it (and are not in a "state of
denial" about our denials). But if we are ignorant of
it (and remain in a "state of denial"), it takes root in us and
produces its fruit in our heart. It masters us. We are its slaves. It
takes us captive, to make us do what we do not want; and what we do
want, we do not do. (We labor in suffering for that which we will
lose.) It is powerful because we have not recognized it. (If you
cannot perceive your own evil, then the evil IS you. Taking an
objective look at your faults, will help you not to identify with
your faults, thus enabling one to correct his/her errors. Those who
can't admit their own faults, are called "demon possessed", and can
only be exorcised by force.) While it (evil) exists it is active.
Ignorance is the mother of all evil. Ignorance will result in
death, because those who come from ignorance neither were nor are nor
shall be. [...] will be perfect when all the truth is revealed. For
truth is like ignorance: while it is hidden, it rests in itself, but
when it is revealed and is recognized, it is praised, inasmuch as it
is stronger than ignorance and error. It gives freedom. The Word
said, "If you know the truth, the truth will make you free" (Jn.
8:32). Ignorance is a slave. Knowledge is freedom. If we know the
truth, we shall find the fruits of the truth within us. If we are
joined to it, it will bring our fulfillment. (Jesus called His
original Church "Gnostic", meaning one has Gnosis or Knowledge. This
Gnosis, for example, does not pertain to the knowledge or high
technology or how to build complicated weapons of mass destruction,
with complex delivery systems, etc. This Gnosis of the Gnostic Church
of Our Beloved Lord Jesus Christ, is the Knowledge of how to Save
one's self and others from suffering, by bequeathing to them their
birthright or rightful inheritance, which is a Longer, Healthier,
Happier, Holier Life. "Stupid is as stupid does." Ignorance is like
an "unexorcised demon, which is self-perpetuating. To the
Knowledgeable, more Knowledge is given, and to the ignorant, much is
taken away, for the fool who chooses NOT to use his own God-given
potential to grow, learn and discover. When compared to the Saints,
the wicked suffer from their own self-imposed denegration of
themselves and others. Ignorance tries to enforce its own ways on the
wise, and, for that reason, it has no positive purpose on this
planet.)
CH. 98
At the present time, we have the manifest things of creation. We
say, "The strong who are held in high regard are great people. And
the weak who are despised are the obscure." Contrast the manifest
things of truth: they are weak and despised, while the hidden things
are strong and held in high regard. The mysteries of truth are
revealed, though in type and image. The Bridal Chamber, however,
remains hidden. (Rasa Tantra or the Marriage Supper remain secret.)
It (the Bridal Chamber or the Hermetic Union of man and woman) is the
Holy in the Holy (the highest teaching). The veil (the symbolism of
Truth, whereby it is obscured from the unworthy) at first
concealed how God controlled the creation, but when the veil is rent
and the things inside are revealed, this house will be left desolate,
or rather will be destroyed. (The Revelation of both Inner Light and
Inner Evil, marks the time preceding the prophesied Tribulations.)
And the whole (inferior) godhead will flee from here, but not into
the holies of the holies (the physical Resurrection and the , for it
will not be able to mix with the unmixed light and the flawless
fullness, but will be under the wings of the cross and under its
arms. (This difficult passage might be about those who are Righteous,
without having perfected the Physical Purification, necessary to
Genetically Rejuvenate the body.) This ark will be their salvation
when the flood of water surges over them. (St. Peter said
that "Noah's Ark was a similitude for Baptism". Male and female
entered two by two and set out upon the waters for forty days, in
which milk was their only food. Here we see that this teaching
originated with Jesus, who also added that the Last Daze would be "as
the stories of Noah's Ark and of Sodom and Gomorrah, in which many
were lost and few were saved". Noah spoke out his own cue for
building this "boat launched onto dry land": "There is only hate and
violence throughout the world". Such beasts have no Gnosis, nor will
they attain it any time soon. They are to be "uprooted", having no
positive reason to be here, since they only willfully cause more
unnecessary trouble. "Noah called it "the chaff being blown away by
the wind".) If some belong to the order of the priesthood, they will
be able to go within the veil with the high priest. (Those who are
worthy will seek the Truth, and, once finding it, will obey such
a "Mandate of Heaven".) For this reason, the veil was not rent at the
top only, since it would have been open only to those above; nor was
it rent at the bottom only, since it would have been revealed only to
those below. But it was rent from the top to bottom. Those above
opened to us the things below, in order that we may go in to the
secret of the truth. (Salvation Science is this newly-
revealed "Secret of the Truth". Those who claim they knew about it
before they were told, are liars. It is a Righteous Revival of a New
Dispensation of Divine Gnosis from Almighty Allah, or whatever you
wish to call God. It is happening to you now! What is your reaction:
Pro or con? For or against? Truth or falsehood? Good or evil?) This
(True Revealed Gospel of the Gnosis of the Marriage Supper) truly is
what is held in high regard, (and) what is strong! But we shall go in
there by means of lowly types and forms of weakness. (We begin
as "fallen" creatures.) They are lowly indeed when
compared with the perfect glory (of the Resurrection). There is glory
which surpasses glory. There is power which surpasses power.
Therefore, the perfect things (Resurrection) have opened (are
revealed) to us, together with the hidden things of truth. The holies
of the holies were revealed, and the Bridal Chamber invited us in.
(You are indeed very fortunate to have found a guru who has this
Gnosis of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb or Sacrifice of God - a
teacher who is willing to bestow it even upon the unworthy. Now you
must prove to God that you are worthy to receive God's blessings the
only Way it can happen - by the Resurrection of the Body and the
activation of the Holy Spirit Within You.)

CH. 99
As long as it is hidden, wickedness is indeed ineffectual, but it has
not been removed from the midst of the seed of the Holy Spirit. (Evil
is a mistake waiting to happen. Until it is revealed by evil actions,
it will remain hidden. The Truth, like fresh meat, lures the laughing
hyenas out of their holes. Had we not revealed the good, the evil
which opposes it would have remained hidden. I once wondered if the
masses would ever hear the Good News about the Resurrection. There
was no response from the Righteous, because there weren't any.
Meanwhile, the laughing hyenas revealed, by their enjoyment for
the "kill", that indeed all had heard the rumors, but almost none had
ever read anything I wrote. Nevertheless, they all knew that it was
the messenger they were attacking. Meanwhile, the others knowingly
allowed it to happen. In retrospect, I was trying to help those who
don't help others. Being selfish no-good evil-doers, those who don't
give found it difficult to receive the Longer and Happier Life,
having blinded themselves with their obsession to do evil.)They
are slaves of evil. (In advanced demon possession, the wicked no
longer have the the freedom to choose Righteousness, and only violent
exorcism can release them from the bondage they would impose on
others, if not prevented from doing so.) But when it is revealed,
then the Perfect (Inner) Light will flow out on every one. And all
those who are in it will receive the chrism. (This "Chrism" is what
the apostle Paul called "the Great Mystery, which is Christ Within
Us".) Then the slaves will be free and the captives ransomed. (We are
presently slaves to the bondage of the Eight-Fold Suffering, which is
imposed upon us by the ignorant and the wicked.) "Every plant which
my father who is in heaven has not planted will be plucked out." (Mt.
15:13) (This is "Harvest Time" when the good, like the wheat, is
separated from the bad, which is the chaff. In the Holy Bible, "Jesus
cursed the fig tree which bore no fruit.") Those who are separated
will unite [...] (with one's consort or spouse) and will be filled
(with Advaitamrita, the Androgynous "blood of Christ". The first
eight weeks after Conception, the embryo has no sex differentiation,
but is Androgynous. There are numerous references to this in the Nag
Hammadi Library, discovered in Egypt in 1945. The Gospels of
disciples Thomas and Philip were in this discovery at Nag Hammadi. To
the ignorant, the word "Androgynous" might evoke thoughts of circus
sideshow hermaphrodites or gay transexuals roaming in Central Park.
Androgyny simply is proof that the Resurrection is the Genetic Re-
Conception of man and wife and NOT something which happens after
death - as we were told, in the cruelest scam of all.) Every one who
will enter the Bridal Chamber (of Rasa Tantra or the Marriage Supper)
will kindle the (Inner) Light, for [...] just as in the marriages
which are [...] happen at night. That fire [...] only at night, and
is put out. But the mysteries of that marriage are perfected rather
in the day and the light. (This Hermetic Marriage is the "secret
mystery", which Re-Engenders the Inner Light.) Neither that day nor
its light ever sets (for, as the Book of Revelation states: "New
Jerusalem will be lit NOT by the outer sun and moon", since it is the
Inner Light of the Third Eye or of Soul Travel, in which Bodhicitta
or Consciousness exits from the God Chakra at the top of the head.)
If anyone becomes a Son (is Reborn) of the Bridal Chamber (the
Biblical "Wedding Feast", he will receive the (Inner)
Light. (He will be "Born Again of water and Spirit".) If anyone does
not receive it while he is here, he will not be able to receive it in
the other place. (This tenet is very crucial! One must receive the
Resurrection BEFORE he dies. That is your soul's sole purpose in this
body on this planet. The scam is that you receive the "fruits" of
Salvation only after death, and, of course, after death you can't
return to complain that you were cheated out of your life's only
purpose!) He who will receive that Light will not be seen, nor can he
be detained. (This bespeaks the legendary Transmutation or
Transfiguration of the Resurrected Body, from physical substance to
ethereal. Jesus is said to have had this power or Siddhi to change
form or even disappear. Science has not as yet begun to understand
these mind-over-matter phenomena.) And none shall be able to
torment a person like this, even while he dwells in the world. And
again when he leaves the world, he has already received the truth in
the images (of the Inner Light: Images shaped like a geometric
philegree, a kaleidescope, or Islamic art, which is forbidden to make
human images). The world has become the Aeon (eternal realm), for the
Aeon is fullness for him. (Indeed, in the Physical Resurrection,
Eternal Immortality can be had on earth instead of in other
dimensions. Without the Resurrection, we age and die, and must
reincarnate in another body, for the sole purpose of attaining the
Resurrection of the Body from degeneration unto Regeneration.) This
is the way it is: it is revealed to him (the Saved) alone, not hidden
in the darkness and the night (of ignorance and copulation), but
hidden in a Perfect Day and a Holy Light (of God). (Elswhere, Jesus
states: "There are two kinds of marriages - those in the night and
those in the Light." Now you know the difference between these two
different kinds of sexual encounter. Allah 'U Akbar, and Praise
Jesus - "the Word made Flesh"! Jai Om. - Sw. Tantrasangha)

Always remember that "Androgyny" and "Androgynous" only signify,
GENETICALLY, that the DNA of the Reborn Couple, is identical to that
of a Newly-Conceived Embryo. Genetically, this is how the "New Flesh"

We can observe that certain symbols are used by many peoples to help
give glimpses of the numinous, the divine, the unknowable powers
beyond conscious human experience and control. And among the symbols
through which they express themselves in religious systems are the
patriarchal Father, the Mother Goddess, and the androgynous primal
human.
When the Two Become One
The core message of the Gospel of Thomas appears in Saying 22 and the
other logia that ring changes on the theme of two-becoming-one,
looking back toward the androgynous unity that existed before the
diversity found in worldly creation. Sayings 11, 16, 22, 61, 87, 106,
and 114 bear on this theme of unity, and some readers find a similar
message in sayings that give the "solitary" or "single one" a special
status. Some, who agree that the two-becoming-one theme is at the
heart of the Gospel, regard it principally as part of an early
baptismal rite. It can be seen. as a dramatization of "the initiate's
putting off the body, putting on light, and returning to sexual
oneness"--to the androgynous primal Adamic human being. It was, in
this view, a mystery rite ensuring the initiate of oneness with God
and with one's heavenly mate.
Beyond the Law
Simon, it was said, taught that the supreme being was androgynous, a
male/female pair (Power and Thought) that was really one. He believed
that a man's salvation is to be found in becoming like the godhead,
by meeting one's twin soul and uniting with her. He claimed that he
was the ultimate Power, but for completion he needed Thought as a
consort. To that station, it was said by his enemies, he elevated a
whore with whom he had fallen in love. He named her Helen, after
Helen of Troy, and presented her as the embodiment of Thought.
