►MODERN DAY ALCHEMY: CREATING MONEY FROM "NOTHING"
"Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions - Why am I doing it, What the results might be and Will I be successful. Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead." (Chanakya, Indian teacher, philosopher, economist, jurist and royal advisor, c.371-283 BC)

➊ AIM
To generate a perpetual income on auto-pilot.

➋ HYPOTHESIS
▸ Hypothesis 1:
Foreign Exchange (forex) is the PRE-EMINENT method to make money:
http://bit.ly/35d2v8p
http://bit.ly/2Pem36Z

The benefits compared to conventional business, property, shares, etc:
◦ greater profit potential (high leverage, volatility) (Time + Leverage = Profit);
◦ lower entry barriers: easier to get started, few overhead costs (no employees, no inventory);
◦ highly liquid: immediate entry & exit of the market;
◦ better risk management: custom position sizing between 0.01 - 100 Lots, using trading strategies (eg. hedging);
◦ business-automation: trading robots (Expert Advisors);
◦ market is open 24 hours x 5 days: more trade opportunities, work when you choose;
◦ simplicity: fewer instruments to analyse and trade;
◦ ease of tax calculations: trading statements provide all evidence;
◦ scalability: ease of multiplying results;
◦ enormous volume: market manipulation more difficult;
◦ geographic independence: trade anywhere, mobile business;
◦ recession-proof: business continuity unaffected by disasters, macroeconomics, etc.;
◦ immediate analysis: obtain an accurate "statement of financial position" at all times.

"The most successful investors don't diversify. Rather, they FOCUS (Follow-One-Course-Until-Successful) and specialize. They get to know the investment category they invest in and how the business works better than anyone else." (Robert Kiyosaki, American businessman and author)

“Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.” (Warren Buffett, American business magnate, investor, speaker and philanthropist)

“The price of a commodity will never go to zero. When you invest in commodities futures, you are not buying a piece of paper that says you own an intangible of a company that can go bankrupt.” (Jim Rogers, American businessman and financial commentator)

▸ Hypothesis 2:
"All unsustainable moves are corrected." (Scott Barkley, Forex Trainer and analyst, President ProAct Traders)

"This makes sense when you step back and look at the big picture. Nothing goes up in a straight line forever. Not stocks. Not real estate. Not anything. There always have to be periods of corrections… booms followed by busts." (Simon Black, international investor, entrepreneur, founder of Sovereign Man)

➎ SAFETY/RISKS
▸ Forex trading involves a high degree of risk, including the loss of your entire investment:
◦ Do not invest money you cannot afford to lose;
◦ Do not trade unless you understand the risks;
◦ Past performance is no guarantee of future performance;
◦ Results will vary depending upon broker conditions, VPS provider and EA settings.

▸ Market odds are 1:1 - either up or down. That's better odds than the casino, sports betting and lottery. You then improve your odds by observing:
◦ Long-Term Support / Resistance levels;
◦ Long-Term Overbought / Oversold levels (correlations of same currency with different pairs);
◦ 4H, Daily, Weekly charts;
◦ Fibonacci confirmations;
◦ positive Swaps;
◦ fundamentals and market dynamics.

▸ Forex is the fastest way to wealth and paradoxically to penury. Before considering VPS costs, broker commissions, latency, slippage, low liquidity, etc., the odds are mathematically stacked against you:
◦ a loss of 10% requires a gain of 11.11% to recover;
◦ a loss of 20% requires a gain of 25% to recover;
◦ a loss of 30% requires a gain of 42.86% to recover;
◦ a loss of 40% requires a gain of 66.67% to recover;
◦ a loss of 50% requires a gain of 100% to recover.

▸ Risks in forex include:
◦ high leverage;
◦ broker conditions;
◦ "Black Swan" events: eg. Swiss Franc January 2015, Brexit June 2016, GBPUSD Flash Crash October 2016, Yen Flash Crash January 2019;
◦ News events eg. NFP, FOMC;
◦ strategy, user settings, programming quality of EA or system;
◦ "opportunity cost" when losing time or money.

"Many great entrepreneurs have had a moment when they have lost everything. Monks create this situation intentionally through 'Vairagya' when they give up all money and possessions. Many entrepreneurs end up in the same situation unintentionally." (Roger Hamilton, world renowned futurist and social entrepreneur, http://bit.ly/2E552px )

"A wise man says: 'HIGH RISK HIGH PROFIT, LOW RISK LOW PROFIT, AND NO RISK NO PROFIT.'
Another wise man says: 'THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TAKING RISK AND BEING FOOLISH.' (anon)

➐ DISCUSSION
▸ Trading vs Gambling
With experience comes understanding. By this method you will tell who has experience and who has none:
◦ traders with little experience will resent comparisons between "trading" and "gambling" as anathema.
◦ traders with much experience will understand "trading is by very definition gambling".

▸ Expert Advisors
There is a plethora of Expert Advisors (EA) to consider. Essential criterion include:
◦ positive user reviews: http://bit.ly/35cYcKv
◦ verified Real monitoring account(s) with over three months' trade history;
◦ prompt and helpful pre-sales / after-sales support;
◦ fair price and license options;
◦ details of trading strategy;
◦ clear user instructions: pairs, timeframes, parameters;
◦ margin requirements.

◦ During Demo forward test performance, confirm:
- suitability of broker trading conditions;
- EA settings for desired performance;
- reasonable frequency of trading;
- stable EA operations.

◦ Red flags to avoid:
- excessive server messages;
- large StopLoss in comparison to TakeProfit;
- Lotsize increases;
- multiple orders.

▸ Curriculum Vitae
◦ 2003-2008: I attended many investment seminars on shares, property, options, etc. Spent upwards of approximately AUD$50,000.
◦ Oct 2008: I became interested in forex during the GFC (Global Financial Crisis) of 2008, when front-page news highlighted the opportunity. For the first time ever, the Aussie Dollar reached parity with the US Dollar (August 2008) and my first foray into forex began with CFDs at CMC Markets. I heavily sold AUDUSD, turning $4K into $32K within 4.5 days from the Monday until Friday afternoon, but my account was over-leveraged to the extent that open profit dropped by $10K to $22K within 30 minutes! At US$0.89 I decided the market still had a long way to go down, so I kept my positions open expecting I would survive. Unfortunately, the market corrected to US$0.92 and I received my first ever margin call. It was a thrilling learning experience and I was convinced!
◦ 2008-2018: Many hopeful moments, but overall results were quite depressive and devastating. The main failures were over-leveraging, risk-taking, overconfidence (in my own skills and EAs) and impatience. Estimated trading losses approximated AUD$700K(?), but be reminded:
- "You pay for education, whether university or real-life experience";
- "No one becomes successful from Day 1";
- “Nothing worth doing is ever easy" (Theodore Roosevelt, American statesman and writer, 26th POTUS, 1858-1919);
- "Make all your mistakes early in life" (Rule 1 “Michael Steinhardt”, below).
- Losses are offset against Assessable Tax Income with an ABN business. A good tax agent is essential - the difference can be seen in Results above.
◦ Sep 2018: I stopped focusing on low timeframes of 1M, 5M, 15M, 1H, and began focusing on high timeframes of 4H, Daily, and Weekly. With AUD$50,000 ($20K of savings + $30K FY2018 tax refund), I happen-chanced upon the CHFSGD being overbought and nearing long-term resistance after seven-straight Long days. Short CHFSGD was Swap-positive, so even more encouragement to hold the positions for the ride down! I Shorted heavily and made over 800% in less than a month (posted 28 Sep 2018).
◦ Oct 2018: I Shorted EURTRY and boosted my equity from $450K to over $9M (29 November 2018). I could have made at least three times as much, if not for my broker's Trading Desk coercing me to reduce my exposure by half, under duress of reduced leverage. Exposure was reduced by 70%, from 670 Lots to only 200 Lots (posted 16 Oct 2018). Refer Rule 4 and 6 “Michael Steinhart” (below). Opened 20 new broker accounts and received broker sponsorship for 12 new VPS. Daily profits exceeded $100k; monthly volumes exceeded 20,000 Lots (broker rebate = USD$58,000 / 0.375 / $7(RTL).
◦ Jan 2019: Yen Flash Crash costs me $13.5 million (approx. 96% loss) (posted 3 Jan, 2019) due to a combination of factors:
- mirroring the same system and settings to all accounts;
- trading many pairs (correlation risk);
- increasing Risk by 40x;
- splitting money across 20 accounts (lowered available margin);
- not using an equity stoploss;
- exceptional market conditions.
◦ Jan 2020: consolidated 12 VPS (20 accounts) onto one broker-sponsored DS. Use of FIX API.

➑ CONCLUSION
To be DETERMINED...
◦ To be determined: (inconclusive, future tense) to ascertain or establish exactly by research or calculation;
◦ (It has been) DETERMINED: (conclusive, past participle) has been proven definitively; learnt with certainty or assurance; facts have been ascertained.
◦ DETERMINATION will overcome any obstacle: http://bit.ly/35boXik

▸ DISSES
Recorded herein for posterity. All made before I turned $50,000 into $13million in Sep-Oct 2018.

“Matthew you are poor man! The worst trader I know! Probably the worst trader in the world! Why do you comment free products that you are not interest in and you do not know nothing about these products, you financial moron! Just for points? It is your new way of making money? Anyone who lost less money than you is better trader than you!!! Even koala bear LMAO!" (Krzysztof Lorenc, hater, 2018)

“You can't stop, you have an addiction, that's a serious problem. You are mentally sick; you need to see a psychologist." (M. Garwarzad, hater, 2018)

“You were greedy. You should have listened to me all those years ago (2008?) and invested in houses. Houses were $300 K, now they are over $1 million. You could have had a few houses by now. The rent helps pay them off. You could have been retired by [age] 40 (currently 35). You should cut your losses now and stop your gambling. Take out whatever money you have left and invest in gold. Fiat currency is going to be worthless. We are going to see a depression worse than 1930. You have wasted all your money. You wouldn't have to keep working three jobs if you had listened to me back then. You [had] better start saving or else if you lose your job you will have nothing. What will happen if you can't work? If you fall sick? You won't be able to afford medical expenses, and you won't be able to afford rent. You will be out on the streets (begging). Start putting some money away in a savings account. You're lucky you're not in jail for losing all that money." (K. Morel, hater, 2018)

“Quit while you're ahead. Take it out. You should take the money out and buy a property. You don't know what's going to happen (with your health, life, investment, etc.)" (many detractors, most everyone else, 2006-2018)

“You don't really have that money; that is Demo trading." (haters that keep losing, 2018)

"But life will become a burden of existence unless you learn how to fail gracefully. There is an art in defeat which noble souls always acquire; you must know how to lose cheerfully; you must be fearless of disappointment. Never hesitate to admit failure. Make no attempt to hide failure under deceptive smiles and beaming optimism. It sounds well always to claim success, but the end results are appalling. Such a technique leads directly to the creation of a world of unreality and to the inevitable crash of ultimate disillusionment." (Urantia Book 160:4.13)

"Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." (Thomas Alva Edison, American inventor and businessman, 1847-1931)

"Success is almost totally dependent upon drive and persistence. The extra energy required to make another effort or try another approach is the secret of winning." (Denis Waitley, American motivational speaker)

"Ambition is the path to success. Persistence is the vehicle you arrive in. (Bill Bradley, American politician, former professional basketball player)

"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement." (Helen Keller, American author, political activist, lecturer, 1880-1968)

"The only question to ask yourself is, how much are you willing to sacrifice to achieve this success?" (Larry Flynt, American publisher)

"Success comes in cans; failure in can’ts." (Wilfred Peterson, American author, 1900-1995)

"If you really want to do something, you will find a way. If you don’t, you’ll find an excuse." (Jim Rohn, American entrepreneur, author, motivational speaker, 1930-2009)

"Behind every successful man there’s a lot of unsuccessful years." (Bob Brown, former Australian politician, medical doctor, and environmentalist)

"A minute’s success pays the failure of years." (Robert Browning, English poet and playwright, 1812-1889)

"I once read an interview with a hedge fund manager, who had one of his traders lose $50 million on a trade. When asked if he was going to fire that trader, he replied “Are you nuts? We just paid $50 million for him to learn that lesson – why would we pack him up and ship him off to another hedge fund to benefit from it?” (Christopher Lee, independent trader, http://bit.ly/34aZ3ds )

"It is a mistake to suppose that men succeed through success; they much oftener succeed through failures. Precept, study, advice, and example could never have taught them so well as failure has done." (Samuel Smiles, author, 1812-1904)

“Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.” (Jim Rohn, American entrepreneur, author and motivational speaker, 1930-2009)

“To be a successful business owner and investor, you have to be emotionally neutral to winning and losing. Winning and losing are just part of the game.” (Robert Kiyosaki, American businessman and author)

"Out of the 241 trades, 16 of them were responsible for ALL of the profit. Most people in this world can't handle it. Yet, it is the only way I have ever seen anyone make money trading. Ever. I was on Wall Street for 23 years. All of the successful fund managers will have long losing streaks, sometimes lasting 6 months to a year. And then... boom! They let their winners run and they wipe out all of their losses. It is how trading works." (Mark Shawzin, thepatterntrader.com)

"The winners pay for thousands of losers." (Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon, http://bit.ly/2YM0vBW )

"To turn $100 into $110 is work. To turn $100 million into $110 million is inevitable." (Edgar Bronfman Sr, Canadian-American businessman and philanthropist, 1929-2013)

"Much of man's sorrow is born of the disappointment of his ambitions and the wounding of his pride.

"Just ignore whoever isn't willing to share; don't expect money when you give bread to a beggar." (anon)

"If the faith of the Most High has entered your heart, then shall you abide free from fear throughout all the days of your life. Fret not yourself because of the prosperity of the ungodly; fear not those who plot evil; let the soul turn away from sin and put your whole trust in the God of salvation. The weary soul of the wandering mortal finds eternal rest in the arms of the Most High; the wise man hungers for the divine embrace; the earth child longs for the security of the arms of the Universal Father. The noble man seeks for that high estate wherein the soul of the mortal blends with the spirit of the Supreme. God is just: What fruit we receive not from our plantings in this world we shall receive in the next.” ' (Urantia Book 131:1.9)

"...the object of fear is fear itself. "Nothing," says Seneca, "is terrible in things except fear itself." And Epictetus says, "For it is not death or hardship that is a fearful thing, but the fear of death and hardship." Our anxiety puts frightening masks over all men and things. If we strip them of these masks their own countenance appears and the fear they produce disappears. This is true even of death. Since every day a little of our life is taken from us - since we are dying every day - the final hour when we cease to exist does not of itself bring death; it merely completes the death process. The horrors connected with it are a matter of imagination. They vanish when the mask is taken from the image of death." (Paul Tillich, author, The Courage To Be, p.19)

'One day when Ganid asked Jesus why he had not devoted himself to the work of a public teacher, he said: “My son, everything must await the coming of its time. You are born into the world, but no amount of anxiety and no manifestation of impatience will help you to grow up. You must, in all such matters, wait upon time. Time alone will ripen the green fruit upon the tree. Season follows season and sundown follows sunrise only with the passing of time. I am now on the way to Rome with you and your father, and that is sufficient for today. My tomorrow is wholly in the hands of my Father in heaven.” And then he told Ganid the story of Moses and the forty years of watchful waiting and continued preparation.' (Urantia Book 130:5.3)

"To ask is the first important step. To continue to ask never allows the process to move beyond the asking stage. First ask, assume the answer is on its way and then continue to express appreciation that it is happening in its own perfect wisdom and timing. That 'wisdom and timing' is greatly influenced by the one asking and how well that awareness is able to follow through with the two remaining steps after the initial asking. This is often called prayer. Nothing can happen until there is first asking. Then the next two steps, assuming it is happening (continued FOCUS of intent) and expression of appreciation (allowance) controls the manifestation. It is that simple! A few additional details are helpful. Ask within a framework that allows what might be called 'Divine Intelligence' or thought thinking to fill in the details. Doubt destroys results; trust insures them." (anonymous, Vol III: Becoming, http://bit.ly/2EaUncY )

"Try and leave this world a little better than you found it, and when your turn comes to die, you can die happy in feeling that at any rate, you have not wasted your time but have done your best." (Robert Baden-Powell, British Army officer, writer, author)

"The satisfying joy of high duty is the eclipsing emotion of spiritual beings. Sorrow cannot exist in the face of the consciousness of divine duty faithfully performed. And when man’s ascending soul stands before the Supreme Judge, the decision of eternal import will not be determined by material successes or quantitative achievements; the verdict reverberating through the high courts declares: 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few essentials; you shall be made ruler over universe realities.'" (Urantia Book 25:1.6)

13 “When, through and by the ministry of all the helper hosts of the universal scheme of survival, you are finally deposited on the receiving world of Havona, you arrive with only one sort of perfection — perfection of purpose. Your purpose has been thoroughly proved; your faith has been tested. You are known to be disappointment proof. Not even the failure to discern the Universal Father can shake the faith or seriously disturb the trust of an ascendant mortal who has passed through the experience that all must traverse in order to attain the perfect spheres of Havona. By the time you reach Havona, your sincerity has become sublime. Perfection of purpose and divinity of desire, with steadfastness of faith, have secured your entrance to the settled abodes of eternity; your deliverance from the uncertainties of time is full and complete; and now must you come face to face with the problems of Havona and the immensities of Paradise, to meet which you have so long been in training in the experiential epochs of time on the world schools of space.
14 Faith has won for the ascendant pilgrim a perfection of purpose which admits the children of time to the portals of eternity. Now must the pilgrim helpers begin the work of developing that perfection of understanding and that technique of comprehension which are so indispensable to Paradise perfection of personality.
15 Ability to comprehend is the mortal passport to Paradise. Willingness to believe is the key to Havona. The acceptance of sonship, co-operation with the indwelling Adjuster, is the price of evolutionary survival.”
(Urantia Book 26:4.13-15)

“But long before reaching Havona, these ascendant children of time have learned to feast upon uncertainty, to fatten upon disappointment, to enthuse over apparent defeat, to invigorate in the presence of difficulties, to exhibit indomitable courage in the face of immensity, and to exercise unconquerable faith when confronted with the challenge of the inexplicable. Long since, the battle cry of these pilgrims became: “In liaison with God, nothing—absolutely nothing—is impossible.” (Urantia Book 26:5.3)

2 The eternal purpose of the eternal God is a high spiritual ideal. The events of time and the struggles of material existence are but the transient scaffolding which bridges over to the other side, to the promised land of spiritual reality and supernal existence. Of course, you mortals find it difficult to grasp the idea of an eternal purpose; you are virtually unable to comprehend the thought of eternity, something never beginning and never ending. Everything familiar to you has an end.
3 As regards an individual life, the duration of a realm, or the chronology of any connected series of events, it would seem that we are dealing with an isolated stretch of time; everything seems to have a beginning and an end. And it would appear that a series of such experiences, lives, ages, or epochs, when successively arranged, constitutes a straightaway drive, an isolated event of time flashing momentarily across the infinite face of eternity. But when we look at all this from behind the scenes, a more comprehensive view and a more complete understanding suggest that such an explanation is inadequate, disconnected, and wholly unsuited properly to account for, and otherwise to correlate, the transactions of time with the underlying purposes and basic reactions of eternity.
4 To me it seems more fitting, for purposes of explanation to the mortal mind, to conceive of eternity as a cycle and the eternal purpose as an endless circle, a cycle of eternity in some way synchronized with the transient material cycles of time. As regards the sectors of time connected with, and forming a part of, the cycle of eternity, we are forced to recognize that such temporary epochs are born, live, and die just as the temporary beings of time are born, live, and die. Most human beings die because, having failed to achieve the spirit level of Adjuster fusion, the metamorphosis of death constitutes the only possible procedure whereby they may escape the fetters of time and the bonds of material creation, thereby being enabled to strike spiritual step with the progressive procession of eternity. Having survived the trial life of time and material existence, it becomes possible for you to continue on in touch with, even as a part of, eternity, swinging on forever with the worlds of space around the circle of the eternal ages. (Urantia Book 32:5.2-4)

"When persons search for God, they are searching for everything. When they find God, they have found everything." (Urantia Book 117:6.9)

"In the madness of materialism the West delivers its great thinkers to the graveyard of thoughts, and tramples those in the dirt, who wish to abjure this madness with strong and holy words." (Prince V. F. Odoyevsky, Russian philosopher)

"The height of sophistication is simplicity. (Clare Boothe Luce, American author, politician, U.S. Ambassador, 1903-1987)

“He who succeeds in raising himself above his emotions in suppressing in himself anger and the fear of illness, is capable of overcoming the attrition of the years and attaining an age at least double that at which men now die of old age.“ (Adamus St. Germain, 1710–1784)

"This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man." (William Shakespeare, English poet, 1564-1616)

►HOW TO INVEST LIKE... MICHAEL STEINHARDT (American investor, hedge fund manager, and philanthropist)
By Filipe R. Costa

▸ A FEW TRADING RULES
In a speech back in 2004, Steinhardt mentioned a few trading rules that he believes to be critical to achieving a successful investment performance. They can be summarised as follows:

1/Make all your mistakes early in life.
Steinhardt is very pragmatic and believes that the most important part of learning comes from one's own mistakes. Investors learn from their bad experiences and become aware of what works and what does not.

2/Always make your living doing something you enjoy.
This allows the commitment to the whole investment process to be strong, which is a requirement in a competitive world. Basically, investment is about brain and heart.

3/Be intellectually competitive.
Investment is a continuous process requiring supervision and action even before some particular asset is selected and added to a portfolio. Constant research is always required to gain an advantage over the market in order to "sense a major change coming in a situation, before anyone else". Sensing the market before all others do has always been a top priority for Steinhardt; it is this that led him to go over his firm's portfolio six times a day, and rendered him the sobriquet Captain Ahab.

4/Make good decisions even with incomplete information.
It is a good idea to gather as much information as possible before entering any single trade, but the available information will never be complete or perfect. Investors need to be trained to work on the facts, figure out what does matter, and take the right trading decisions before all others gain awareness of the situation. They then need to have the courage to put sufficient money behind the trade to achieve a meaningful outcome.

5/Always trust your intuition.
Over the years, investors develop and refine an ability to take the best decisions on their intuition. But this intuition doesn't come from a gut feeling or a hunch. Rather, it is a complex process deriving from the investor's cumulative learning over the years. It's wisdom, like that of a fruit seller guessing weights without a scale. It's an educated intuition.

6/Don't make small investments.
Amazon's stock price climbed from $38 to $820 during the last 10 years, a 2,160% rise. Had you invested $10,000 you would have a respectable $216,000 position by now. But had you invested just $100 you would have missed a potentially life-changing opportunity. After spending so much time and effort researching an asset, investors must make sure that the rewards from the money at risk are meaningful.

▸ A FEW FINAL WORDS
Steinhardt's variant perception is a contrarian approach to the market, but one under which opposing market sentiment is insufficient. Timing is everything. Just because sentiment is very bullish, which is usually the case near market tops, it doesn't mean it can't be even more bullish the next day (the Nifty-Fifty during the 1960s is a good example of this).Trends often last longer than you can stay solvent betting against them. Investors need a strong instinct for the markets, which takes time to develop and effort to improve. Past experience trading the markets is key, as is knowledge acquired through deep research. Steinhardt doesn't believe in pre-set rules. For him, stop-loss orders, buying on weakness selling on strength breakouts and breakdowns, as well as charts and technical analysis, are all superfluous to a successful strategy. "I look at the stock. It has a fantastic chart. The chart has a base like this, and then if it goes up a little bit more, boy it is a real breakout, blah, blah, blah, blah. They all seem the same to me".

Fundamentals and market timing is what matters the most. And, when the right opportunity surges, investors should embrace it without fear, being flexible enough to be net short as easily as they can be net long, and having the boldness to take on large meaningful positions.

►DAN PENA'S PENAISMS (American businessman and business coach)

◦ Dream big… and dare to fail!
◦ The more you investigate, the less you have to invest.
◦ Never, ever second-guess yourself.
◦ I’ve never seen a “part-time” super successful, high performance person.
◦ Don’t waste time on things you can’t change.
◦ When you deal with the opinionated or egotistical, always give credit where it isn’t due.
◦ You won’t always have all the answers. Only take seriously the advice of others whom you greatly respect.
◦ The consequences of a misguided decision are insignificant in the cosmos of eternity.
◦ Always shoot for the moon. Even if you don’t hit the bulls-eye, you’ll at least get 80%
◦ Everybody else is worried about life after death. My concern is about life before death.
◦ The business world is divided into people with great ideas, and people who take action on those ideas.
◦ If you want things to change, first you have to change.
◦ A man who dwells on his past, robs his future.
◦ There’s a big difference between playing to win and playing not to lose.
◦ The only difference between a champ and a chump is “U”.
◦ A good plan executed today is better than a great plan executed next week.
◦ To achieve “hyper-growth”, avert avoidable mistakes, and let your successes run their course. Do more of what you’re doing right – and less of what you’re doing wrong.
◦ Business opportunities abound – but formidable barriers exist. And the biggest barrier is psychological. It is you.
◦ Conventional wisdom is almost always wrong.
◦ Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Just because something has never been done doesn’t mean it can’t be done. The fact you have never seen or heard something is not proof that it doesn’t exist.
◦ Every worthy dream has a “pay-price-to-action”. That means you have to give up something to get something. You can’t have it all.
◦ The best way to predict the future is to create it yourself.
◦ I never met a super successful, high performance person who wasn’t enthusiastic.
◦ Whoever said money can’t buy you happiness doesn’t know where to shop.
◦ Excuses are the crutches of the untalented and unambitious.
◦ You’ve known all along it’s tough to be successful. But you’d rather hear the fairy tales.
◦ Always respect the individual on the other side of the deal. He is not as stupid as you may think. And you’re not as smart as you think.
◦ Logic can be a logical process which leads to a wrong conclusion.
◦ It isn’t a case of taking a big chance. It’s a matter of giving yourself a big chance.
◦ The more self-esteem you give others, the more you have. And the more you have, the easier it is to give away.
◦ Most successful people do it poorly until they do it well. Just keep blundering along. You can’t wait until it’s exactly right. The product of your quest for perfection is… paralysis.
◦ A guarantor is a fool with a pen.
◦ No matter how tempting, never accept short-term solutions to long-term problems.
◦ Too many companies try to patch when they should amputate. ‘Let’s reorganize and save this mess’ is a clarion call to disaster. Cut your losses, kick the cuttings out of your way, and move on.
◦ If you want to travel above and beyond the herd, don’t try to be better. Try to be different. Or better yet, be first!
◦ Find your passion and wrap your career around it.
◦ You’ll be motivated by inspiration… or desperation. It’s your choice.
◦ People with low self-esteem protect themselves by not taking risks. High self-esteem gives you the power of confidence to take chances.
◦ Give yourself permission to make mistakes. It’s called learning.
◦ Being all you can be is possible for anyone, but... super success is not for everyone. Period.
◦ Don’t take high performance advice from your peers, family or friends unless they are high performance people themselves.
◦ The road to success is always under construction.
◦ Progress often masquerades as trouble.
◦ Don’t focus on mistakes, focus on the positive “next time”!

THIS IS NOT DEMO
Matthew Todorovski
Matthew Todorovski
CHAPTER 36 Eskra
28/36.1. Ka’yu said: Such is the base the ancients have given into our hands, but who could follow them into detail?
28/36.2. I was not born into the world for this; but to choose from each and all of them, what all of them will accept.
28/36.3. In the ancient days our country was sparsely settled; families were a good convenience. But, behold, the land is full of people. I do not have just a few scattered barbarians to deal with.
28/36.4. I have to deal with a learned people, who have scarcely room to stand. I am only one man; and you, only seventy-two.
28/36.5. By ourselves, we can do nothing. Shang Te has shaped the times to our hands. Whether we live to see it, it matters little. The time will surely come, when the emperor will be obliged to destroy the books of the ancients.
28/36.6. Let us therefore take the cream of them, and provide for their preservation while we may. ||
28/36.7. Ka’yu then divided up the labor among his seventy-two disciples; apportioning the books of the ancients justly among them.
28/36.8. And so great was the wisdom and scholarship of Ka’yu, that in twelve days’ time some of his disciples were ready with their reports to begin. And from these reports Ka’yu dictated, and the scribes wrote down his words.
28/36.9. And it came to pass, that when a committee presented a revision before Ka’yu that he even knew it before it was read in the Council. And he dictated on its contents, making the necessary alterations. After which, the subject was given to the scribes to do the full rewrite.
28/36.10. Now the whole time of the first sitting of the Council was eight and a half years, at which time they had been over all the work.
28/36.11. But so great was the wisdom and memory of Ka’yu, that he called out from the errors of his disciples enough material to require two years’ more deliberation.
28/36.12. And thus from the lips of Ka’yu, twenty books were produced containing the digest of more than eighteen thousand books. Nor had any man in all the world ever done even one-tenth of so great a feat of learning.
28/36.13. The scribes wrote six copies for every one of the disciples; and when they were thus provided, and were ready to depart, Ka’yu spoke to them, saying:
28/36.14. What, in your opinion, is the highest, best satisfaction? And after the disciples had answered, some one thing, and some another, the master said:
28/36.15. To know that one has done the highest thing within his power, this is the highest, best satisfaction. For what is any man at most, but an agent of the Most High?
28/36.16. To be true to one’s own highest idea, is this not serving the Father? To be neglectful in such conviction, is this not the sickness of all the learned?
28/36.17. What honor, in your opinion, does any man have? The disciples answered, some one thing, and some another. After a while, the master said:
28/36.18. If those beneath him honor him, then it is no honor to him. If those above him honor him, then it is a reproof of his other deeds. But if he honors himself, he has great honor indeed. But who can honor himself, except he who is perfect in his own sight? He cannot do this, therefore he has no honor in extreme. To choose little honor, to choose a medium line, is this not the highest any man can attain to?
28/36.19. To grieve over one’s own self, because of imperfection, this is great folly. To eat fruit, herbs and rice, these are the purest diet, but only a fool would starve rather than eat flesh.1155 Rites and ceremonies are useful, but a man had better dispense with even these, than to go to war for them.
28/36.20. To rest on the ancients only, this is great folly. To honor the ancients only, and to believe that they alone received revelation, these are the extremes of a foolish understanding.
28/36.21. To remember that the Creator is Ever Present, and with as much power, love and wisdom today as in the ancient days, this is wisdom.
28/36.22. To try to find some good thing one can do, this is creditable. But to do nothing good, because one cannot do it in his own way, this is execrable.
28/36.23. He who finds a good work to do, and does it, has much satisfaction. But he should not exult in it, for he has only done his duty. I have no honor in these twenty books.
28/36.24. Two kinds of men I have found; those who are predestined by the Gods to accomplish a certain work, and those who are born with no predestination. The first are erroneously called the highest, because they are at the head of great undertakings; but they are nevertheless only instruments in the hands of the Gods. The others, who are born without a predestined work, never can understand the former.
28/36.25. To be born near enough to the (es) Light to see it, and believe in it, and have faith in it, this is a great delight. To be so far from the Creator that one cannot believe in His Person and Presence, this is pitiable.
28/36.26. I divorced my wife because I discovered she could not bring forth heirs to belief or faith. No man should be bound to a woman whose desires lie in the corporeal self. And women should have the same privilege.
28/36.27. He who is wed to the Great Spirit, how can he dwell with one who is wed to the earth?
28/36.28. To one man, celibacy is the highest life, because he has joy in his Heavenly Father. But to one who does not have this joy, celibacy is a great punishment. The society must admit both conditions.
28/36.29. There is no mean between these two; therefore, both must be provided for.
28/36.30. Those who desire celibacy approach the termination of the race; those whose desires are the other way are of a breed not so far along.
28/36.31. There need be no quarrel between them. The destiny of both must be completed some time.
28/36.32. When a country is sparsely settled, those of extremes can go and live aside; it is nothing to govern such a state, or to proclaim extreme doctrines before them. But when a country is full of people, the two extremes and the mean must dwell in proximity. It is not an easy matter to govern them wisely.
28/36.33. Whatever people can dwell together in great numbers on the smallest piece of ground, and yet have peace and plenty, such a people are the highest of all peoples.
28/36.34. Where an extreme doctrine cannot be carried out, it is better to have a less extreme doctrine. People, like a drove of sheep, are much inclined to follow a leader. In which case, politicians, lawyers and judges run the state into war.
28/36.35. To legislate in such a way, that leaders cannot lead the multitude into evil, this is wisdom. Were all leaders dead, the people themselves would not be very bad. Yet it is wrong to take any man’s life; for life is something man has no property in. Life rests with Jehovih only; it is His.
28/36.36. Before the ignorant, and before fools, we speak by commandment. Chine’ya has passed that age; our books must go persuasively, yes, in the mean (balance between the extremes).
28/36.37. To dictate to the learned, is to cast one’s treasures into the fire. By asking them questions, we can often lead them.
28/36.38. Coaxing, with effect, is greater than dictation not obeyed. We preach to the rich man, that he should give all he has to the poor, and he walks away, giving nothing. When we say to him: Give a little, he does it. In this case the higher doctrine is the lower, and the lower doctrine is the higher, because it has potency.
28/36.39. The ancients said, the first best thing was to love the Creator; I think so too. But when a philosopher asks me to prove that the Creator is a Person, and is worth loving, I am puzzled. To accept Him as a Person, and as All Good, without criticism, this I find gives the greatest happiness.
28/36.40. I have seen men who would pull the Creator to pieces and weigh His parts to know His worth, but such men end in disbelief in Him. I have not found one such man who accomplished any good in the world. In the presence of goodly men he is like a fly that delights in breeding maggots—pretty enough in himself, but a breeder of vermin in the state.
28/36.41. Yet he who says: Let the evil practice evil, because the Creator created them, is of a narrow mind. Or, if he says: Jehovih sent the rainstorm to destroy the harvest; or, Jehovih sends fevers to the dirty city: such a man lacks discretion in words and judgment.
28/36.42. But he who perceives that man is part of the creation, in which he must do a part of the work himself, or fevers will result, such a man has his understanding open in regard to the Father.
28/36.43. Between the too much casting of all things in Jehovih’s face, and too little belief in Him, lies the mean, which works (develops) the perfection of man.
28/36.44. To try to find the Creator with love and adoration, instead of with a dissecting knife; this leads man on the highest road. To trust in Him, while we strive to do our best; this is good philosophy. To lie about idly, and not plant our fields, blindly trusting in Him to provide; this is great darkness.
28/36.45. A wise man, perceiving the defects of the society, will not censure it, but turn to work and find a remedy. It is for such purpose the angels of the higher heavens raise up great men in the world.
28/36.46. I have seen many people in many different kinds of worship, and they go through their parts in the sacrifice without perceiving the spiritual idea of the founders, and they are neither better nor worse for it. The infidel, with little discretion, seeing this, abuses all the doctrines, but a wise man goes between them to find the good which others lose sight of.
28/36.47. To find all the beauties in a man or woman, or in their behavior—this is Godlike. To find their faults and speak of them—this is devilish. Yet, consider reverently the man who does not speak of persons. Who knows, may not all men be as automatons, some in the hands of Gods, and some in the hands of devils?
28/36.48. Such a doctrine would make us less severe with those who err, or who do evil. We hope for this.
28/36.49. I have seen the criminals being whipped, and I have said to myself: Only by a mere circumstance of birth, the wrong ones are being lashed. Otherwise, they would have been governors of the states.
28/36.50. I once helped a bad man to elude his pursuers, and he escaped whipping, and he reformed himself. Since then, I have been a convert to great leniency.
28/36.51. The time will come when bad men will be neither whipped nor tortured, but appropriated to benefit the province; to shape our laws for such interpretation, is the beginning of wisdom in the government.
28/36.52. To appropriate all men to the best use; this is the wisest governing. To punish a bad man for vengeance’ sake; this is devilish.
28/36.53. If a man slays my sister, I raise my sword up before him, so that he may run against it, but I do not strike him. To reform a man is better than to kill him; to lock up a bad man where he can do no harm, is sufficient for the state.
28/36.54. I have watched the soldiers in drill, and I said: This is a beautiful sight! For, I saw the colors of their clothes, and the poetry of their maneuvers.
28/36.55. But I watched them again, and I said: This is wicked! For, I looked into the object of the drill, and I saw blood and death. The state uses power by violent means, but the soul within us desires to accomplish peacefully.
28/36.56. The standard of a wise man, to judge wisely, requires of him to imagine he is a God, high up in heaven, and that all men are his children. He should consider them as a whole, and beneficially.
28/36.57. This I perceive: There were a few wise men among the ancients, as wise as the wisest of this day. But, today, there are more wise men than in the ancient times. Does this not lead us to believe that a time will come, when all people will be wise?
28/36.58. I would like to see this; it would settle many vexing questions. The seers tell us the soul of man is immortal; moreover, that they have seen the spirits of the dead. I tried for many years to ascertain if this were true, but I could not discover.
28/36.59. Nevertheless, I said: It is a good doctrine; I will appropriate it. The Creator must have perceived it also. It is reasonable, then, that He created man immortal.
28/36.60. The priests have appropriated this doctrine also. Moreover, the ancients say, the good are rewarded in heaven, and the evil punished in hell. The people have been told this, and yet they will not be good.
28/36.61. Chine said: To deny one’s self and to labor for others with all our wisdom and strength; this is the highest doctrine. || I saw a man on a mountain, calling to his flocks in the valleys, but they did not understand him, and did not come. Then he came halfway down the mountain, and called, and the flocks heard him and understood, and they went up to him.
28/36.62. It is easy to plan out high doctrines, but not so easy to give an efficient doctrine. He who is mid-way, is the most potent. I have observed that all peoples have higher doctrines than they live up to. Yes, the boast of one religion over another is of its relatively superior height in the doctrines enunciated. And yet, they, who boast thus, practice neither virtue nor sincerity, for they do not live up to even the commonest doctrines.
28/36.63. On the other hand, the boast of a government is not of its virtue and goodness, and its fatherly care of the helpless, but of its strength in arms, and its power to kill. And these are the lowest of attributes.
28/36.64. I was born into the world to reach the government, and make it virtuous and fatherly. This can only be done through the family, then to the hamlet, then to the province, and then to the empire.
28/36.65. But I could not do this without sincere men, who would faithfully practice my doctrines.
28/36.66. That you are sincere, is proved in your being with me; that you are virtuous and discreet, with propriety, is proved in your listening to my words. Yet, regarding this work, how can I be sincere? I say, my words, when in truth I feel that no words I utter before the Council, are my words in fact.
28/36.67. Is this not true of all good men, in that they are mouthpieces for the Gods, or for the circumstances surrounding them? We open our mouth and speak, but where do our ideas come from?
28/36.68. When the sun shines on the field, the herbs come forth; is it not the Creator’s light falling upon us, that causes our ideas to come forth? And if we keep away the grass and the weeds, we receive a profitable harvest.
28/36.69. I wish that all men would write a book on the Creator. Thought, directed in this way, will not go far from the right road.
28/36.70. To feel that He is with us, hearing all our words, seeing all our deeds: Is this not the surest foundation to teach our children? What is so potent as faith in the Creator, and in His Son, Shang Te, in making our children sincere, and to behave with propriety?

CHAPTER 34 Eskra
Doctrines of the base
28/34.1. What were the old foundations?
28/34.2. To dwell in families (communities), with a father to each and every one.
28/34.3. And what of the ancient states?
28/34.4. The fathers of the families had chief fathers over them.
28/34.5. What of the empire?
28/34.6. The chief fathers elected one over them, and he was called, the Sun Father. Because, as the sun is the glory and beauty of the phalanx ruling over the planets, so was the emperor the sun of mortals.
28/34.7. What was the scope of responsibility?
28/34.8. As a father is responsible for the behavior of his own child, so was the rab’bah responsible for the behavior of his family; so was the chief rab’bah responsible for the behavior of his family of rab’bahs; so was the emperor responsible for the behavior of his empire.
28/34.9. What was the responsibility of a child to its natural father; of a man to the rab’bah; of the rab’bahs to the chief rab’bahs; of all the people to the emperor?
28/34.10. The child shall be taught to love, revere and obey its own father (and its mother, who is its vice-father); the man to love and revere the rab’bah; the rab’bahs to love and revere the chief rab’bahs; the whole people to love and revere the emperor.
28/34.11. Why this order?
28/34.12. It is the doctrine of the ancients, handed down from generation to generation, and has proved to be a good doctrine for an empire.
28/34.13. How did the ancients know these principles?
28/34.14. The Creator taught them. The Creator sent His high angel, Te, who has charge of the intermediate world, down to mortals to teach them.
28/34.15. How is this proved?
28/34.16. By the sacred books of the ancients.
28/34.17. Who wrote the ancient sacred books?
28/34.18. Men inspired by the angel of the Creator.
28/34.19. How is this proved?
28/34.20. It is proved negatively, because men cannot write so beautiful nor in the style.
28/34.21. What were the fundamental doctrines of the ancient sacred books?
28/34.22. To worship none but the Creator.
28/34.23. To have no images or idols.
28/34.24. To keep the day of the change of the moon as a sacred day, and to do no work on that day, but to practice rites, processions and ceremonies, for the glory of the Creator.
28/34.25. To love the Creator above all else.
28/34.26. To love one’s parents next to Him.
28/34.27. To kill no living creature maliciously or for food.
28/34.28. To tell no lies; neither to steal, nor to covet anything that is another’s.
28/34.29. Do not do to others what we would not have them do to us.
28/34.30. To return good for evil.
28/34.31. To feed and clothe the stranger, the sick and helpless.
28/34.32. To not be idle, but industrious.
28/34.33. To speak no ill of any man, woman or child.
28/34.34: To practice the highest wisdom one has.
28/34.35. To respect all people, as we desire to be respected.

CHAPTER 35 Eskra
28/35.1. || What were the ascetics of the ancients?
28/35.2. That heaven and earth are warring elements, one against the other.
28/35.3. That all men must choose to serve one or the other, and at once engage in the battle.
28/35.4. If a man desires everlasting life and bliss in heaven, then he must battle his earthly parts with great vigor.
28/35.5. He shall torture his flesh, by fastings, by lying naked on sharp stones, by flagellations, and otherwise, showing before the Gods how displeased he is with his corporeal body.
28/35.6. He must live alone, deny himself all pleasures, not sleep in a house, nor eat cooked food. ||
28/35.7. What is the extreme of great learning?
28/35.8. To devote one’s whole life to learning what is in the books. To cultivate the memory so that one may repeat all the words in four thousand books, is great learning. But it is greater learning to be capable of repeating eight thousand books, word for word.
28/35.9. What is the extreme of loyalty?
28/35.10. To love the emperor, so one cannot see his faults; to love the rab’bahs, so one cannot see their faults. To love discipline, so that one has no time for anything else; and, on the contrary, to have no time for discipline, rites or ceremonies.
28/35.11. What is the law of life?
28/35.12. The spirit of man is the man; to live for the growth of the spirit, this is the highest of living.
28/35.13. What are the kinds of spirit communion?
28/35.14. The spirit of one person can commune with the spirit of another, if they are not encumbered with grossness. The spirits of the dead can commune with the spirits of the living, even without one’s knowing it.
28/35.15. What is the destination of the souls of men?
28/35.16. When man dies, his spirit is born into the air of the earth, which is the intermediate world, where it sojourns until sufficiently purified, and is reverential to the Creator; and then it is taken up by His angels to dwell in the higher heavens forever.
28/35.17. What shall mortal man do for the benefit of his own spirit?
28/35.18. He shall love the Creator with all his soul, and strive to emulate Him in good works, gentleness and love.
28/35.19. But if he does not do this, what then?
28/35.20. His spirit will be bound in hell after death; he will become a victim for the delight of demons.

CHAPTER 33 Eskra
28/33.1. God established a line of light from his throne in heaven down to Ka’yu; he maintained this light of heaven with mortals by the presence of half a billion angels.
28/33.2. That which was inspired of God, came to the soul of Ka’yu; what God spoke, that Ka’yu spoke.
28/33.3. And God spoke through Ka’yu in such a way that man would not know it was God speaking; for he desired to inspire men to self-culture, instead of relying on Gods and angels as previously. ||
28/33.4. In the language of Ka’yu, the Great Spirit was called, Shang Te; but the word, Te, was God; the words, the Shang Te, were the Gods.
28/33.5. Ka’yu said: Behold, man has blockaded the road to wisdom. In one place he has heaped up thousands of books of the ancients; in another place, he wastes time in rites and ceremonies.
28/33.6. Our labor is to remodel the whole, by choosing from all the past that which is the best. Te will guide us in this.
28/33.7. We must, therefore, make one book, acknowledging the EVER PRESENT GREAT SPIRIT, and His one SHANG TE [True God –Ed.]. And this book must contain all the glory and beauty now contained in the seven hundred sacred books of the empire.
28/33.8. And since there are four hundred and eighty-six books on the intermediate world
28/33.9. And in the same way, there being twelve hundred and seventy books on the spirits of the dead, and their testimonies of the lower and the higher heavens, we must make one book of this.
28/33.10. And of the two thousand two hundred books on magic, and on conjuring spirits, and on second sight and second hearing, we must make one book out of these.
28/33.11. Of books of families, there are more than four thousand, which shall also be condensed into one book.
28/33.12. Of histories, there are more than four thousand books, which shall be condensed into one book.
28/33.13. Of law books, there are more than twelve thousand books, and of the precedents of judges’ decrees, there are more than thirty thousand books. All of these shall be condensed into one book.
28/33.14. Of provinces, and of the empire, and of their governors and emperors, there are two thousand seven hundred books, all of which shall be condensed into one book.
28/33.15. And of government, there are seven hundred books, which shall be condensed into one.
28/33.16. Of caste, there are four hundred and ninety books, and of proprieties, three hundred and twenty, and all of these shall be condensed into one book. ||
28/33.17. Ka’yu, continuing, said: My work is to bring confusion to a termination. Of doctrines, laws, rites and ceremonies, and philosophies of both heaven and earth, we have had enough.
28/33.18. In a dark age, Shang Te (True God) gives his commandments in injunctions; he shows the people what is right, and what is wrong. In my day, the people know these things, but they do not practice them.
28/33.19. Even the preachers and conductors of ceremonies in the temples, who proclaim righteousness, charity and good works, do not practice what they preach. They live in ease and luxury, but tell us to go give to the poor. Yes, and they threaten us with hell, if we do not do it.
28/33.20. Of these different doctrines, there are seven hundred kinds in the sacred books; and they all condemn the followers of the others. Concerning which, to escape the damnation of hell, a man would need to do sacrifice more than four thousand days every year! This is not possible to any man. For there are only three hundred and sixty-five days in a year!
28/33.21. Nor is it possible for any man to learn all the books; no, a thousand years would not suffice.
28/33.22. God (Te) forbid that I add more to the burden we have already. And I know he will preserve, in our abridgment, all that is good in the whole of them.
28/33.23. Since we cannot live according to the multitude of doctrines and philosophies, we must abridge them within the scope of man. Neither must we cut any of them off entirely, or we lead their followers into rebellion.
28/33.24. Since we have so many law books and so many judges’ decrees, all of which, before he can become a judge of the court a man must learn, which is impossible, we must cut them down into a few simples, but sufficient to cover the rules of discretion in judgment. It is better to throw the judge of the court partly on his own judgment and responsibility, than for him to be a blank as to judgment, simply reading the decree of a preceding judge.
28/33.25. And as to the religion of this man, or that man; behold, it has come to pass, that each, in his own order, performs his rites and ceremonies, sacrifices and prayers, like a trained horse in a showman’s circle, going round and round, and not knowing its meaning.
28/33.26. For it has come about, that the religions have made machines of the worshippers; the law books have made machines of the courts; the books of government have made machines of governors and emperors.
28/33.27. I am sent into the world to make men of men, and women of women.
28/33.28. There is no religion to suit me, therefore I make one. There is no government of the empire to suit me, therefore I devise one. There is no system in society, therefore I make one.
28/33.29. I am not sent into the world to destroy what is, or what has been; there are enough evil men to do that. I am sent to cull the harvest, and to gather choice seed from what now is, and what has been.
28/33.30. For the seed I plant is selected not to be planted in the ocean, nor on the moon, nor in a far-off country; but to be planted in Chine’ya, and in Chine’ya I will plant it.

CHAPTER 32 Eskra
28/32.1. Ka’yu grew up to be a man, in every way adapted to the work for which the loo’is had him born into the world by command of God.
28/32.2. And it also came to pass, that disciples were also born, and duly prepared by the angels of God to become co-workers with Ka’yu. Of these disciples, seventy-two were called chief disciples, that is, six from each of the twelve kingdoms and sub-kingdoms of Chine’ya.
28/32.3. God had said: Do not let Ka’yu and his chief disciples know they are instruments in my hands. Neither let them know that my angels inspire them, nor allow them to know that they come from their respective kingdoms by my voice through my angels.
28/32.4. In one age, to say a matter comes by inspiration or by the angels, is to render the matter potent; and yet, in another age, to not profess inspiration or angel-presence, is to render the matter potent.
28/32.5. The latter condition is now upon Chine’ya. Let my angels heed this. ||
28/32.6. When Ka’yu was ready for the work of God, seventy-two men and women of great learning, having heard of Ka’yu’s wisdom, came to him from the twelve provinces of Chine’ya. None of these knew they had been inspired to come.
28/32.7. Ka’yu said to them: Why have you come? Some gave one reason, and some another.
28/32.8. Ka’yu said: These great happenings are the work of the Ever Present.
28/32.9. Let us conduct ourselves as Gods; the Great Spirit will then answer us.
28/32.10. Therefore let us sit in crescent, like Gods do.

i118 Ka’yu, also called Confucius (in the western world), living some twenty-six hundred years before kosmon. He was one of the most learned men that ever lived. He taught the doctrine of one Great Spirit, and to worship Him only. He abridged eighteen thousand books of the ancients, taking the cream of all of them, and condensed them into twenty books.

CHAPTER 31 Eskra
Birth of Ka’yu, otherwise Confucius
28/31.1. Thoanactus, Chief of the million loo’is sent by God down to the earth, to Chine’ya, to raise up an heir capable of the voice of God, sent word to God in Paradise, saying:
28/31.2. Greeting to you, O God, in the name of Jehovih. Your Son is born! And his name is Ka’yu.1144 He is son of Heih, who is sub-king [governor –Ed.] of Te’sow. Behold, your son Ka’yu is k’te’sune1145 in the borders, whose mother, Ching-tsae, is not yet fifteen years old. And Heih was father to twelve children previously.
28/31.3. Let us rejoice before Jehovih, Who has quickened into life this tree of universal knowledge.
28/31.4. Also my hosts have brought about more than three thousand births, who shall become his disciples in time to come.
28/31.5. God returned answer to Thoanactus, saying: In Jehovih’s name all praise to you and your hosts. Your words have been proclaimed in Paradise! There is great joy in heaven. Send the grades of mortal resurrection in Chine’ya, with doctrines and rites and ceremonies and the dominion of the spirits of the dead.
28/31.6. Thoanactus then applied to the angels who had charge of the numerating and appraising of mortals as to their grades and spiritual intercourse; and having obtained the reports, he made selections, and reported as follows:
28/31.7. Thoanactus sends greeting to God, Son of Jehovih: Ling, sun king of Chine’ya, with twelve sub-kingdoms, one to represent every month of the year. Four hundred and six million mortals; two billion seven hundred million angels, not fettered by angel tyrants. Of the angel emissaries of the Triune God, one and a half billion.
28/31.8. Mortal grade, eight; maximum, eighty; minimum, nothing. Of fifties, one to seven. Of twenty-fives, one to three; of tens, one to one; but of seventy-fives, one to forty, mostly guardian births.
28/31.9. The rise in the eleventh year, two; in the thirty-third, five; in the hundredth, twelve.
28/31.10. Of rites and ceremonies, seventy-two; of sacrifice without compunction, thirty-five.
28/31.11. Funeral rites, ninety-eight; observances in full, forty-five.
28/31.12. Perception in su’is, one to three hundred and sixty-two; in sar’gis, one to six thousand two hundred and eight.
28/31.13. Of spirits in sar’gis, one to thirty-three thousand; of first and second resurrections, mostly ashars.
28/31.14. Thoanactus says: Because Chine instituted reverence for the dead, the funeral rites have become worshipful.
28/31.15. After the body is put away, either buried or burnt, mortals read prayers on three succeeding days, at sunset, chanting the virtue and love of the dead; and often the spirit returns to them in the house, taking on sar’gis, appearing like a mortal, and talking to their mortal kin.
28/31.16. Of drujas, who have not attained to live alone, seven hundred million. Of these, thirty percent are in declension, and seventy in ascension.
28/31.17. Of mortals in druk, sixteen percent; of mortals in idleness, including druks, twenty percent.
28/31.18. Of those who are addicted to secret evils and pollution, seventy percent; of abortionists, one-half of one percent.
28/31.19. Thoanactus says: Owing to the veneration for, and to, the rites to the dead, speug’s increase is attributed.
28/31.20. Furthermore, your servant sends to you with this report, for the libraries of heaven, a full record of the cities and country places of Chine’ya; and the grade and rate of every mortal.

[[1144 The name, Confucius, as used in English has no phonetic synonym in Chinese. [Actually it does, more on this shortly.] Some English authors spell it, K’ew, but there is perhaps no English word nearer the mark, than, Ka’yu. Chung’ne was a name he received afterward. Many Chinese scholars merely call him, Ne! Again he is called, K’ung K’ew. But I have not heard a Chinaman call him any name that sounded like, Confucius. –Ed.
[That Newbrough (the recipient of Oahspe and chief 1882 editor) did not understand how Ka’yu became Confucius only underscores for the critics that this work Oahspe did not come from his mind, but from the Es realms.
We now know that Ka’yu’s family name was K’ung or Kung, and that his first name was Ka’yu, or K’ew, usually rendered into English nowadays as Ch’iu, which is phonetically equivalent to Ka’yu, and in any event refers to the same person, that is, Ch = Ka, + i + u = K’i’u. Since the Chinese place the surname first, his
name was K’ung Ka’yu, or K’ung K’ew.
Since Ka’yu headed the Council of Ts’Sin’Ne (28/37.25) and his last name was Kung (Chung), we can see the origin of the names Chung’ne and Ne as mentioned in the 1882 editor’s footnote.
Now the word Fu-tse or Fu-dz or Fuzi or Fu-tzu (all of which are phonetic renderings of the same word) was a form of address bestowed upon another person. For example in the west some people receive the title of Sir SoAndSo, or is addressed as The Right Honorable SoAndSo. In India they sometimes attach the word ‘Maha’ to a name, meaning ‘great’ as in Mahatma Gandhi (literally: Great Soul Gandhi) or Maharishi (great sage). In China it was no different, and Fu-tse was such an honorific attached to the surname. Hence K’ung Ka’yu became known as K’ung Fu-tse meaning something akin to ‘the honored master K’ung.’ The western ear heard K’ung Fu-tse as Kun-fu-t’se’s, which ultimately became Confucius.]]

CHAPTER 30 Eskra
28/30.1. For four years Sakaya preached, traveling from the east to the west, and from north to south; and wherever he went, great multitudes came to hear him, for so God had prepared them.
28/30.2. And seventy-two disciples, who were also inspired of God, to learn the wisdom of Sakaya’s words, went with him. And the people of Vind’yu were stirred up, as they had not been since the time of Capilya.
28/30.3. And it came to pass that the priests and magicians of Brahma [Kabalactes –ed.] sought to condemn Sakaya, saying: The oracles and the spirits of the dead declare, his words are not true words. Moreover, if he were of the Holy Ghost, he could show signs and miracles.
28/30.4. So God gave Sakaya signs and miracles, even to showing the spirits of the dead, who came and stood beside him while he preached; and the spirits spoke also, declaring Sakaya’s words were of Jehovih. And the multitude saw the spirits, and heard them speak.
28/30.5. Sakaya said: In truth, I do not come of the Holy Ghost; I come of the actual Person, Jehovih (Ormazd).
28/30.6. Then God gave to Sakaya power of the DEATH CAST [swoon –Ed.], by which his own spirit went out of his corporeal body, and stood in the presence of many men, and was seen by them; and his spirit spoke to them, and they heard his words.
28/30.7. And while his spirit was thus out of his corporeal body, another angel of God came and inhabited it, and spoke before the multitude.
28/30.8. Now, after these signs came to Sakaya, he preached again, and traveled four more years, showing these things wherever he went.
28/30.9. And on these occasions he explained the spirit of things, and the different heavens that he had visited. And he showed to many that it was not imagination; for he left his corporeal body, and went in spirit to far-off cities and country places, showing his spirit in regions hundreds of miles away, and he was recognized in the communities where he appeared.
28/30.10. For there were learned men in those days, and they traveled to the places named to see his spirit, to witness if such a thing could be; and hundreds and thousands of them testified that it was true.
28/30.11. Sakaya said: Be most expert in observation of these matters, for though they are proved to you, yet I declare to you, they are as nothing. For even magicians and spirits of darkness can attain to the same miracles.
28/30.12. Nor is there in such wonders one single virtue that would contribute to make the world better, or happier.
28/30.13. For the spirits of the lower heavens, like mortals, have multitudes1142 of doctrines; and, for the most part, they know nothing of the higher heavens, Nirvania, which I proclaim to you.
28/30.14. Nor is the testimony of a spirit more valuable to you than is the testimony of a mortal.
28/30.15. But consider the words and doctrines of spirits and men, for only that is good which provides for ameliorating the condition of the family and the state.
28/30.16. For it is given to you by the Father, that you can begin your own resurrection while you are here in the corporeal body.
28/30.17. Consider, then, what you can do that will raise you in spirit; for this is resurrection. First, to purify yourselves; second, to do all the good you can; and third, to affiliate. Without these, there can be no resurrection.
28/30.18. Or, having two of them, and lacking in the third, there can be no resurrection.
28/30.19. To live the highest best one knows; to practice sharply the convictions of the heart: these are the working-tools of resurrection. To not live the highest best one knows; to not practice what one is convinced of, is hypocrisy; these are like stones tied to the neck of a man in deep water. ||
28/30.20. In all, Sakaya preached and practiced fourteen years; and he founded seventy-two communities.
28/30.21. And all their members were sworn against war, and against caste, and against idleness, and to worship only the Great Spirit, Ormazd. And Sakaya gave them many rites and ceremonies.
28/30.22. And then Sakaya said to the Creator: I know You have in some mysterious way inspired me to do all I have done. Therefore, all the glory is Yours. How best, O Father, may these great truths be impressed upon mortals, so that they will not soon forget Your words through me?
28/30.23. Then God answered Sakaya, saying: By your death by the hand of the idolater.
28/30.24. Sakaya said: Then, You, Who created me alive, provide my death as You desire.
28/30.25. So God disbanded the cord of light that extended to the heavenly throne in Paradise. And suddenly now the Brahmins conspired against Sakaya, and they secretly poisoned his food with the blood of swine, killed with poison.
28/30.26. And Sakaya ate the food, not perceiving the poisoned blood; and he was taken with a bloody flux and died.
28/30.27. And his disciples took his body, according to the custom of the country, and burnt it, and scattered the ashes to the four corners of the world.
28/30.28. And that night, God sent a million angels into the field of ashes, with a heavenly ship of fire, and they took the spirit of Sakaya into the ship, and bore him up to the throne of God.
END OF THE HISTORY OF SAKAYA

CHAPTER 29 Eskra
28/29.1. Sakaya said: I declare truly, a new thing to you, but which was old thousands of years ago:
28/29.2. That religion is nothing more, nor less, than rites and ceremonies in the discipline of a community. As when an army of soldiers is in training by their captains, when certain commands and maneuvers cause the soldiers to be a unit in movement; so is religion in a community, which, through rites and ceremonies, is made a unit to carry out works of charity, harmony, love and righteousness.
28/29.3. And every member of a community, who takes no part in its religion, is like an idler mixing in with a company of soldiers, where his presence tends to evil.
28/29.4. Brahmin priests go about preaching, singing and praying before audiences, making great show in the temples; yet none of these practice what they profess.
28/29.5. From these evils, learn to do good; first, by living only in families where all the members practice what they profess.
28/29.6. By worldly standards, it is easy to preach and call it religion; but the fruit must be measured by the city or the state, that is saved from sin. Who then, of all the priests in the temple, can say: Here is a community saved from sin!
28/29.7. If they cannot do this, then they are themselves hypocrites and blasphemers.
28/29.8. Satan calls out from a dark corner, saying: Remain within the wicked world, and leaven the whole mass.
28/29.9. Again he calls out from a dark corner, saying: Go away from the wicked world, and live as an ascetic, praying alone, living alone.
28/29.10. Again he calls from a dark corner, saying: You and your friends are too pure to mix with the world; go away privately, and let the world take care of itself.
28/29.11. Now, I say to you: Do none of these things; and, in the same breath, I say: Do all of them.
28/29.12. Let your community remain within the world, so that it may be a proven example that love, peace, plenty and happiness are possible on the earth. Let the community be sufficiently ascetic to attain the beatific state, which is the triumph of spirit over the flesh.
28/29.13. And as to the third proposition: Take no part in the governments of men, of kings, or queens. Neither fight for them, nor against them.
28/29.14. For they live under the lower law; but you shall live under the law of Jehovih as He speaks to the soul of man.
28/29.15. Neither shall you have kings, nor queens; these belong to the world’s people.
28/29.16. Lastly, and above all things, do not live for the corporeal man, but for the spiritual man; remembering you are not yet born, but are in embryo, shaping yourselves for the everlasting life.
28/29.17. Whoever does not practice the higher law, will not escape the tortures in hell; but whoever lives the higher law will pass on to Nirvania, where dwell Gods and Goddesses of endless light.
28/29.18. Do not flatter yourselves that you shall suddenly reform all the world. You can, at most, only reach an arm’s length.
28/29.19. Three doctrines have been, are now, and ever shall be on the earth; they are: First, the Faithists’, who know the All Person, Ever Present; second, the idol worshippers’, who make the Creator into a man in heaven, and not present but by proxy of certain laws; and, third, infidels’, who believe in nothing they cannot take up in the hand, and weigh.
28/29.20. The Faithists beget Faithists, the idolaters beget idolaters, and the infidels beget infidels. For these three conditions are only outward manifestations of the spirit within. The infidel is nearly devoid of spirit; the idolater has one grade more of spirit; but the Faithist has spiritual ascendancy.
28/29.21. Since the highest, best, good things done in the world, come from the order of Faithists, be circumspect as to marriage, so that your offspring incline more to spirituality than to earthliness.
28/29.22. But such matters come under the higher law, and can be understood only through the soul.
28/29.23. Also, practice has proved that the laws of a community must die with the death of the rab’bah, and that new laws must be made by the new rab’bah. And, in no case, shall the law of precedent, of things past, apply to things present. For this is making slaves of the living, to those who are dead. It is making the wisdom of the dead greater than the wisdom of Jehovih.
28/29.24. When a rab’bah retires from office, it shall be considered the same as a death, for it is the termination of his rule.
28/29.25. Nor shall a rab’bah have any privileges or emoluments, over and above any member of the community; nor any member, man or woman, above another; for there shall be no partiality, even in favor of the learned and good, over and above the ignorant and the less good. For you are all brothers and sisters; children of One Father, created by Him in His own way and for His own glory.

CHAPTER 27 Eskra
28/27.1. Purification is the first law I give to you, and is the same as with the ancients, in which:
28/27.2. You shall not eat the flesh of any creature that breathed the breath of life; nor of fish that lived in the water nor under the water.
28/27.3. You shall bathe once every day from the crown of the head to the sole of the feet. And before bathing, you shall say: Before You, O Jehovih (Ormazd) I will put away the filth of my body and the evil of my spirit. And after bathing, you shall say: As I have with water washed clean the outer man, O Jehovih, help me to make clean my spirit.
28/27.4. In the morning, when you wake, you shall say: Help me, O Jehovih, to keep my thoughts pure today; and my soul full of love and tenderness.
28/27.5. In the evening, before sleeping, you shall say: While my corporeal body sleeps, O Jehovih, help my less encumbered spirit to see the ways of Your righteous judgment.
28/27.6. Without purity, no man can see the Creator; with purity, all men can see and hear Him.
28/27.7. It is easier to purify the corporeal body than the spiritual. For diet and baths can accomplish the former, but pure thoughts are required for the soul.
28/27.8. A man may be clean, as to the flesh; but if he has impure thoughts, he is impure in spirit. Whoever speaks cruelly or unjustly of his neighbor, is foul in spirit. If he speaks of the shortcomings and deceptions of his neighbors, he is foul in spirit.
28/27.9. So that, first of all, purification is the first law of a man’s own self.
28/27.10. The second law is, after being purified, to strive constantly to do good to others.
28/27.11. Some of the multitude asked: What do you mean by: doing good to others?
28/27.12. Sakaya said: To inspire others to purity first; and then to attain individuality. It has been said, from time without end, that to help the poor, to give to them, to serve them, is good works done to others. But I say to you, this is only halfway to that which is good. For you shall not only help them, but go and teach them how to help themselves. This is doing good to others.
28/27.13. It has been said: Whoever says the ordinances of the priest, repeating a certain number of prayers daily, does a good work. But I say to you, whoever teaches a man to invent prayers of his own, has done a greater good.
28/27.14. To put a man on the path to be his own salvation, this is the best good work. As you have depended on the priests to pray for you, I come to teach you to pray for yourselves.
28/27.15. The third law is: To abnegate one’s own self; being willing in heart, to sacrifice one’s own desires, possessions and opinions, for the sake of peace and the good of the family. This is the most difficult law. For the selfishness of man causes him to say: I have such a love of liberty. Let me be the dictator, and you do my decrees.
28/27.16. If not for this evil among men, they could dwell together in peace, the world over.
28/27.17. The fourth law is: To love all men, women and children, as brothers and sisters.
28/27.18. The fifth law is: To return good for evil; to return pleasure to those who give pain.
28/27.19. To practice those things, holding all things in common, is sufficient for the redemption of the world from darkness, war and evil, to peace, light and happiness for all the living.

CHAPTER 25 Eskra
28/25.1. Etchessa, angel chief of the loo’is, who brought forth Sakaya, seeing the resolution of Sakaya, departed at once to Paradise, before God on the throne, to receive the commission of Jehovih, and to establish a line of es’ean light to the mortal sphere.
28/25.2. And so, God had his officers select the highest grades from the volunteers, and arrange them in a line of light down to the earth, to Sakaya, so that the voice of God and his Holy Eleven could speak the wisdom of Jehovih through Sakaya. These hosts were to be under the direction of Etchessa.
28/25.3. The million loo’is were also summoned to their places in the line; and in five days’ time, the light of the throne of God was made one with the soul of Sakaya, and he began preaching, even from the steps of the palace of the king, his father.
28/25.4. Meanwhile, the loo’is of the hosts of Etchessa inspired their mortal wards to come before Sakaya; being those men and women born into the world to become disciples and followers of Sakaya.
28/25.5. And it came to pass that soon men and women, from remote distances, assembled in Sakaya’s native city, to hear him preach. So that people said to one another: Such coming of strangers proves that the Great Spirit is with Sakaya.
28/25.6. These, then, that follow, are the substance of the doctrines preached by Sakaya, being a re-establishing of the Zarathustrian law, that is to say:
28/25.7. I am only a man; do not worship me. Nor honor me for my words, for they are not my words in fact.
28/25.8. All men’s wise words are the accumulation of things previous; nothing is new. Nor do I proclaim any new doctrine or new rites and ceremonies.
28/25.9. On the contrary, I declare my follies publicly before you. Inasmuch as I have been an example of folly, learn to be wise by not following my past footsteps.
28/25.10. In my youth, I was quickened to see the miseries, sorrows and afflictions of mortals. And I cried out to Ahura’Mazda, as the priests had directed me, to find some sure way to do great good in the world.
28/25.11. But in the legends of the ancients I learned that certain signs and miracles attended Capilya and Brahma and Zarathustra. So I grieved to attain to signs and miracles.
28/25.12. You know the rest. I fasted and prayed and tortured my flesh, to make the earth abhorrent in my sight, even according to the rules of the Brahmin priests.
28/25.13. But nothing came to me more than to the commonest magician.
28/25.14. So I declare to you, I have renounced Brahminism and asceticism, and taken up the Zarathustrian religion, which is, that good works are the only salvation.
28/25.15. To know, then, what are good works, and to apply these to the inhabitants of the earth. This should be the chief study of a preacher.
28/25.16. And since most crime and misery come because of poverty, and because of the division of the affairs of men (castes), it is wise to devise, first, a remedy against poverty, and second, a means of attraction to bring about a brotherhood between men.
28/25.17. To accomplish which, the association of families of tens, twenties, hundreds and thousands, with rab’bahs (priests), to each, as Capilya taught, is the highest and best plan.
28/25.18. In which families, there shall be neither buying nor selling, nor ownership, nor divisions, nor castes, nor privileges of one above another, nor rich, nor poor. ||
28/25.19. When Sakaya was asked: How about those who can work fast, and are strong, and can accomplish much, shall they not have preference over those who produce little?
28/25.20. Sakaya said: A certain man had two sons, one was strong and the other weak, and yet that father did not distinguish between his sons in his will. Was he then just?
28/25.21. They said: A most just father.
28/25.22. Sakaya said: So I declare to you the Ormazdian law: to give to one another all things required, and without distinction as to strength or expertise.

CHAPTER 24 Eskra
Birth of Sakaya
28/24.1. Sakaya was born in Hagotha, province of Nao’wan, on the borders of Nepal; but because his birth had been foretold by the Faithist prophets, and that he would re-establish the doctrines of Capilya, the place of birth was afterward called Capilya’wahtu.
28/24.2. Sakaya’s father’s name was Metanga, and he was of the twelfth generation of Suddhodana (that is, of pure vegetable food [vegan –ed.]). During which time, none of his forefathers ate fish or flesh, or of anything that breathed the breath of life.
28/24.3. Metanga was very old when Sakaya was born, but the wife of Metanga was only fifteen years old; for which reason, the people nicknamed the child, Sramana Gotama, that is, passionless from father and mother.
28/24.4. Metanga was High Father [king –Ed.] of the province of Nao’wan; consequently, Sakaya was born a prince, as commanded by Jehovih, in heaven, that he should be. About whom Jehovih said: He whom I will raise up, shall have the glory of the earth before him; and he shall grow up as learned as a king and a priest, and he shall re-establish peace and good will on earth. ||
28/24.5. Now there had been bloody times in Vind’yu for four hundred years; during which time a warring sect, who falsely called themselves Brahmins, had overrun the land with sword and spear, lance and fire, destroying temples, oracles and languages.
28/24.6. These were the destructions, previously mentioned, done by the God Kabalactes, mortals supposing that they were under the God Brahma.
28/24.7. God, Jehovih’s Son, had said to Etchessa, chief guardian angel over Sakaya: You shall cause your ward to learn Brahminism, asceticism and all other religions.
28/24.8. Thus was Sakaya educated; and at twelve years of age, he took vows of Brahminism.
28/24.9. At fifteen, he desired to acquire the extatic (ecstatic) state, and he joined a band of seven Brahmin priests, and went about for three years with the alms-bowl, begging for the poor, living as the poor, and fasting and praying, and studying with his teachers and priests.
28/24.10. And then for another four years, he excluded himself from speech, except to the Holy Ghost, dwelling out of doors, night and day.
28/24.11. But Jehovih did not allow the extatic state to come to Sakaya. And one night, his guardian angel, Etchessa, spoke to him in a dream, saying:
28/24.12. Behold, I am Jehovih, and not the Holy Ghost! Yes, I am a very Person! And Ever Present! Why have you put Me off? Did I not create you alive, and make you a person also? You are born of the race of Suddhodana. Your labor is not to seek the extatic state for yourself, which is selfishness, but to renew My light on earth.
28/24.13. Therefore, give up this, your most useless life of going about praying, and return to your father’s house, and take a wife. For how can you attain the wisdom of the earth, without becoming a husband and father?
28/24.14. Sakaya awoke, remembering his dream, and he told it to his priests, and asked them to interpret it. And they said to him: This was not a dream, but the voice of satan; put it aside.
28/24.15. But Sakaya was more convinced by his dream than by his priests; and he therefore gave up his fasting and praying, and returned to his father’s house, saying: Father, you are wise in following the ways of your ancestors. From now on I will be a priest no more; nor in fact a Brahmin, for that matter, but pursue your doctrines, which are of deeds more than words. You shall, therefore, choose me a wife, for I will wed and become a father.
28/24.16. So Sakaya wed, and his wife bore him a son. When he looked upon the child, he said: You are the greatest of sermons.
28/24.17. Now, because of the strange life Sakaya had lived, being a prince, he was the wonder of the city of Hagotha, and was much loved by the people, especially the poor, for his alms-bowl had often relieved them from hunger.
28/24.18. Consequently, when it was known he was a father, thousands of the poor came before the royal palace, singing songs of praise to Sakaya and his child and his wife. And the poor women had infants in their arms. When Sakaya saw the infants, he burst into tears, and came out before the multitude, and spoke to them, saying:
28/24.19. Today I have sinned before heaven and earth! Behold my tears! I wish they were drops of blood, and I could shed them to do you good! For I have looked upon my own son, and said within my soul: This is mine! And I considered how my son was born a prince and above want; but I did not consider this great multitude of babes, who have no assurance against starvation.
28/24.20. Why, then, shall I remain with one who has sure provision, and glut myself in ease and the selfish joy of my own house? And leave this multitude of babes to the hazard of precarious life?
28/24.21. Is Sakaya not of broader soul than this? Until I have provided sure happiness to those who are already born, have I any right to bring more children into the world? What are my family and my kingdom, though I win the land from Yaganosa to the ocean, if this burning within my own soul will not cease, but cries out constantly: Heal the sick earth!
28/24.22. From this time forward I covenant with You, O All Light, to give up all the earth, and to serve You! Beasts can bring forth young; and they set their hearts only on their own begotten! Your Light moves me to a nobler course!
28/24.23. This day I quit the earth and passion for earthly things; I will be Your Son, O Jehovih! And for the remainder of my days on the earth, I will labor to make conditions better for Your abundant offspring! Behold these young babes looking at me, with Your smile, O Jehovih, in their innocent faces! Calling to me: Help! Help!

CHAPTER 23 Eskra
Of Ennochissa, Triune God over Chine’ya
28/23.1. Ennochissa spoke before his Lords, saying: According to the splendor of a kingdom, so is its ruler glorified; this I have learned. Therefore Eta-shong shall surpass all other heavenly places.
28/23.2. Vazista said: Your Lords are of the same mind. As for Looeamong and Kabalactes, they are more bent on the affairs of earth than of heaven.
28/23.3. Ennochissa spent two hundred years in building and beautifying his heavenly city, Eta-shong, employing more than two billion slaves for that purpose.
28/23.4. And as to his heavenly palace, and the palace of his Holy Council, never had there been anything like them in grandeur and magnificence in any of the lower heavens.
28/23.5. The circuit of the columns of fire, of which there were one million, was equal to half the breadth of the land of Chine’ya. In the front of his palace were four hundred thousand arches and pillars, and leading up to the foot of the throne, seventy rises (step-ups), each with a breadth (run) of one thousand lengths [of a man –Ed.]. In front of the arches was an arena, four thousand lengths across, and this was ornamented with one hundred thousand fountains of fire and water. Interspersed, here and there, on the walls and arches, were hanging gardens of flowers, and drapery of gold and silver.
28/23.6. And as to the workmanship displayed, it was so fine that no language can convey an idea of it to mortal understanding, except, indeed, it be said, everything was represented that is on the earth and in its heavens.
28/23.7. The officers of the palace, next in grade below the Holy Council, Lords, marshals and recorders, were generals, captains, inspectors, surveyors, receivers and builders, and these were all above grade ninety.
28/23.8. And maintained within the palace arena were half a million es’enaurs and trumpeters, four million fire and water servants, and three million bearers of burdens; and yet, beside these, there were six million caterers and servants.
28/23.9. Only officers of rank could cross the arena, or approach the arches by walking upright; all others had to crawl on their bellies in approaching the throne, saying prayers all the while.
28/23.10. Now, although the other Triunes had great capitals and palaces, they were not to be compared with Ennochissa’s.
28/23.11. Thus labored this Triune, even to the neglect of his earthly dominions.
28/23.12. And it came to pass that God, Jehovih’s Son, in Paradise, sowed the seed of faith in Chine’ya in favor of the Creator; so that, by the end of two hundred years, nearly all the spirits of the dead went not to the Triune, but to God in Paradise.
28/23.13. And God’s angel missionaries went into this Triune’s heavenly kingdom, and won many converts to Jehovih.
28/23.14. So that Ennochissa discovered, indeed, that his heavenly kingdom was losing ground.
28/23.15. So he resolved to enter the field of war, and to destroy all mortals in Chine’ya who worshipped the Great Spirit. And he also resolved to drive out from his heavens, all angels who believed in Jehovih, or who were missionaries for the kingdom of God.
28/23.16. Of all the Triunes, Ennochissa was the first to thus declare war against Jehovih, which was exactly in opposition to his own professions, when the Confederacy was first formed.
28/23.17. From this time on, Ennochissa was called by the Faithists in heaven, a false God.
28/23.18. As yet, the other two Triunes had fought more for Jehovih than against Him.
28/23.19. After this, both mortals and angels in Chine’ya knew no peace. And when no war existed between any two or more cities or states, and the people were Jehovihians, Ennochissa, with his hundreds of millions of angel warriors, obsessed these mortals, and plunged them into war, to make them destroy one another.
28/23.20. From these scenes of horror turn now, and learn of the kingdom of God, Jehovih’s Son.

CHAPTER 22 Eskra
Of Kabalactes, Triune God of Vind’yu, and her heavens
28/22.1. Kabalactes said: Since Vind’yu and her heavens are to be mine forever, I will take my own time, and make a sure foundation. First, then, I will build me a heavenly city, Haractu, twelve miles high above the mountains of Yammalaga, and the wings of it shall spread out, broad as the land of Vind’yu.
28/22.2. And I will build me a heavenly palace in Haractu, and adorn it in splendor; and it shall also have wings on every side; and the wings shall be the habitations for my officers, my select and Holy Council.
28/22.3. And when Haractu is thus completed, I will send word into all the heavens of the earth, saying: Come and see Haractu, the heavenly seat of the Holy Ghost; the most glorious city of the Holy Confederacy of the Triune.
28/22.4. And then my legion of angel warriors shall go forth to battle in these my heavens; and they shall despoil all the false Lords and false Gods worshipped in Vind’yu. One of two choices I will give them, to bow down in obedience to me and to the Triune and to the Holy Ghost, or to be cast into hell.
28/22.5. One by one Gods and tyrants shall fall by my hand; I will destroy them utterly and forever. ||
28/22.6. Kabalactes then organized his heavenly kingdom; creating his officers and apportioning his angels among them, according to the labor allotted to them.
28/22.7. And he built the heavenly city, Haractu, and adorned it in great splendor. And he provided hospitals for the sick and imbecile, and nurseries for es’yans, and factories for workmen, and schools and colleges for great learning.
28/22.8. Look, he said, I have provided places for the poor, the sick, the unlearned, the helpless and the imbecile, even before I provided a palace for myself. There is a God for you. Behold, I am the servant of the Triune, the Father and the Holy Ghost.
28/22.9. My doctrine is: To labor for others first, and for one’s self afterward. And since you perceive that my doctrine is a holy doctrine, you shall establish it, come what may. For, though I am good, I am also power and majesty, in great anger to overcome evil, and establish righteousness and liberty. ||
28/22.10. These, then, were the chiefs of Kabalactes’ staff, namely: Pedmon, Laer, Yodava, Craosha, Varaga Sin Tse, Karapa (the false Mithra), Haekiha, Yutobis (the false Christna), Lumbothia, Doravva, Etchwalactcha (the false Vishnu), Myrrhes, Sepia, Tidon (the false Ari), Onatuhu, Durhea (the false Durga), Indra, Kali, Hosanne, Wahtissa (the false Agni), Owella (the false Rama), Gur (the false Siva), Hiak, Cassavragga (the false Trimurthi), Howgotha and Ithra. And as captains: Sarama, Janassa, Anatheia, Thodica and Janurs.
28/22.11. But all the foregoing assumed many false names, both on earth and in heaven, so that no history could reveal who they were, or by their names distinguish where their dominions lay.
28/22.12. Kabalactes had said to his chiefs: Behold, mortals have many favorite names for worship. Go down to the earth, to Vind’yu, and possess the temples of spirit communion, the oracle-houses and whatever places mortals come to worship in, and these places shall be yours.
28/22.13. And to whatever Lord or God that mortals most incline to bow down to, take the name of that Lord or God.
28/22.14. For I give this law to you, that you shall possess the land of Vind’yu, not with new names, but with the old, but all to one end, which is the establishing of the Triune Godhead.
28/22.15. Kabalactes then made Pedmon commander-in-chief over his angel warriors, and dispatched them down to the earth, to Vind’yu.
28/22.16. After this, Kabalactes raised an army of two billion angels to fight his heavenly battles. Over these he crowned Yettaba, Lord in chief.
28/22.17. In addition to the heavenly attractions of war, Kabalactes provided six groups of musicians of half a million to each group.
28/22.18. He also instituted times and places for tournaments, processions and the display of great pageantry.
28/22.19. He said: I will not only be powerful in might, but powerful in attractions, above all other Gods.
28/22.20. Now, as has been told of the wars of Looeamong, even so, but in a different place, were the terrible conflicts in the heavens of Kabalactes, which were also manifested on the mortals of Vind’yu.
28/22.21. So it came to pass, in a few hundred years, that Vind’yu was only a land of ruins, but over it, in every direction, were hundreds of millions of angels in chaos, being the spirits of those slain in the wars.
28/22.22. Kabalactes said: Now I will clear away the ruins, and build my everlasting edifice on the earth.
28/22.23. Behold, I will remodel the sacred books of mortals in my own way.
28/22.24. In these signs I will rebuild: The triangle, representing the three lights, the Son, the Father and the Holy Ghost.
28/22.25. I will re-establish the tau (bull), as the sign of my power. And because my heavens are The All Pure, the tau shall be white.
28/22.26. The wheel (jaugernot) shall be my road-mark.
28/22.27. These signs shall be given to my mortal subjects, to be theirs forever.
28/22.28. And whoever parades my signs, shall know that they are my covenant, which I have made to mortals. ||
28/22.29. Kabalactes then appointed twelve thousand four hundred and eighty-eight angels, to go down to Vind’yu, to rewrite the sacred books of mortals.
28/22.30. And he crowned Gaonaza chief of the inspiring host.
28/22.31. To write the five great books, five mortals had been previously chosen from before their birth, by the guardian angels appointed for the purpose.
28/22.32. These men were: Harritza, to write the Avesta; Vraghettes, to write the Vendidad; Royhoh, to write the Vispered; Yathavah, to write the Yacna; and Uzariah, to write the Khordavesta.
28/22.33. The angels chosen by Kabalactes in heaven were sent down to these mortals, to guard them from the time of their birth upward. And enough angels were provided, and divided into watches, to keep away all other angels, and to be with their mortal wards day and night, conversing with them in their dreams, giving them visions, and good habits, virtue, truth and wisdom.
28/22.34. And it came to pass that when these mortals were grown up, and the time came for their work, they were as one with their guardian spirits, knowing and comprehending the voice of their master, Kabalactes, whom they were inspired to call Ahura’Mazda, because this name was pleasing to mortals.
28/22.35. Gaonaza, commander of the inspiring hosts, distributed the twelve LIGHTS OF THE THRONE, being the angels in rapport with the five mortals, two to each of them, except to Harritza, to whom he gave four.
28/22.36. And now, when the writing was to be done, the following was to be the manner of inspiration, namely:
28/22.37. The writer was previously inspired to be at his post at dawn in the morning, and to have all things ready for writing half an hour before sunrise, and to write until sunrise.
28/22.38. And the angels in rapport stood beside him, laying their hands upon him. Next to these angels stood another angel, with hands upon them; and, after that one, stood another, and so on, for one thousand angels in a line, extending in a direct line toward Haractu, the heavenly seat of Kabalactes. And there were stretched three cords of es’ean light from the outermost thousandth angel in line, up to the heavenly throne, to the Holy Council, before whom the chief of the ten thousand spoke, as previously instructed by Kabalactes.
28/22.39. And, as this chief spoke in heaven, the es of his voice passed down to the mortal, who framed into earth-words, that which was spoken in heaven.
28/22.40. || Jehovih has said: I have created two kinds of spiritual inspiration for mortals: To the individual man, individual spirits, but to him who labors for the resurrection, a line of angels extending to the kingdoms in heaven.
28/22.41. And if that line has a good work on hand, I do not break it; but if it is for self, it will break of its own accord. ||
28/22.42. Thus were written the sacred books of Vind’yu, the mutilated remains of which survive to this day. And copies of these books were written on cloth and on paper and on stone; some of which were carried in different directions over Vind’yu.
28/22.43. In eighty-seven years Kabalactes completed the sacred books, and disbanded the inspiring hosts.
28/22.44. So far, Kabalactes had destroyed nine million men, women and children in the wars. He had also destroyed four thousand heathen temples, and more than three hundred cities. And he suppressed over two hundred languages, and banished six thousand two hundred false Lords.
28/22.45. With the suppression, he also commanded all languages from that time forward to be made out of Vedic, Yi-ha and Zend, from which Sanscrit descended, as it is to this day.
28/22.46. Hear next of the Triune God, Ennochissa, of the heavenly place, Eta-shong, over Chine’ya.

CHAPTER 20 Eskra
Of the Confederacy of the Holy Ghost, called, the Trinity: First, of the Triune God Looeamong; and of Baal and Ashtaroth
28/20.1. The Lord said: The three heavenly kingdoms, Haractu, Eta-shong and Hapsendi, of the Triunes, were independent, but allianced for offense and defense against the evil Gods, Baal, Dagon, Shulleth, Ashtaroth and others, whose angel subjects were kept in slavery, and for evil purposes.
28/20.2. Now, therefore, the Triunes jointly declared war, to the end that peace might be secured in these heavens.
28/20.3. Nevertheless, each of the Triunes had charge of his own heavens and over that part of the earth covered by his heavens.
28/20.4. For they had divided up and appropriated both, the earth and the heavens, into three parts; one to each of them.
28/20.5. Here follows, then, the history of the wars of the Triunes:
28/20.6. First, of Looeamong and the false Gods he overthrew:
28/20.7. A triangular war was going on in hada and on earth between the angel armies of Baal, Dagon and Ashtaroth, in which ten billion angels were engaged under them.
28/20.8. Looeamong declared war against the whole of them, and impressed into his service eight billion angel warriors.
28/20.9. Ashtaroth, the most vengeful Goddess, had previously sent hundreds of millions of her warring angels down to the apostate Jews, to inspire them to wars and cruelties on one another, hoping to exterminate them, lest they become Baal’s subjects. And she had sent other millions of warring angels to the Par’si’e’an cities, to the Eguptian cities, and to Daskrath, Babylon, Gonassah, Tyre, Romaxain, and to the kings and queens of many other great cities; to inspire them to send forth armies to destroy not only the worshippers of Jehovih, but all people who worshipped Baal, or Dagon, or any other God.
28/20.10. Baal, on the other hand, had sent hundreds of millions of his warring angels down to the earth, to Heleste and the west regions, and to the Israelites as well, inspiring mortals to war against the east kingdoms, especially Babylon and Daskrath, two mighty cities in the dominions of the Goddess Ashtaroth.
28/20.11. And the armies of mortals were moved forth by the armies of angels, whom they did not see; and war raged east and west and north and south.
28/20.12. Looeamong, the Triune, said: I will spoil them both. I will send an angel army of warriors down to the middle kingdoms, to the great tyrant, Cyrus. I will possess the oracles and direct Cyrus to march against Par’si’e. He shall make an alliance with the Argos’yans [Greeks –Ed.].
28/20.13. Hatchesan [Media –Ed.] and Karsoka shall be my countries. And the cities of Hemia, Babylon, Nine’vah, Gassakad, Hannadan, and Saluem, shall never again bow down to Baal and Ashtaroth.
28/20.14. Belus shall be mine, and the cities and temples of Hina, Maroth [Heliopolis and Bubastis –Ed.], Hovan, Torres, and Delfi; and the habitations of Phires, Somak [Phrygia –Ed.], Macedon, and Thues [Corinth –Ed.], and the great oracle-houses of Myrsilus, Myrsus, Gyges, Candawles, Haerkus [Clazomenae –Ed.], Simon [Miletus –Ed.], Gamma [Minerva –Ed.], Fabiyan [Arion –Ed.], Sulus [Atys –Ed.], Craz’ya [Croesus –Ed.], Wakadya [Juno –Ed.], P’hrid [Phrygia –Ed.], Gemnae [Busiris –Ed.], Ma’zan, and R’hodae [Rhodes –ed.].
28/20.15. By force I will possess them; yes, by force drive away all other angels and Gods. And my warrior angels shall possess these temples, so that whoever comes to consult the Gods shall receive my own answers. I will drive mortals to war in my own way, and to whatever place I decide to subdue or destroy.
28/20.16. Equally menacing were the boasts of the Goddess Ashtaroth; she had said: Whether I despoil heaven and earth, I do not care. If I cannot possess them, I will destroy them, so that no God shall possess them.
28/20.17. Into festering knots and hells I will cast tens of billions of angels, in case I do not succeed in winning all.
28/20.18. I will send millions of warring angels down to Xerxes, the Par’si’e’an king, and to his kingdom, and they shall obsess every man, woman and child to desperate madness against the Argos’yans [Greeks –Ed.] and the middle and west nations.
28/20.19. I will lead Xerxes forth with the mightiest army that has ever been on the earth. And they shall despoil all regions, wherever they march.
28/20.20. For I will make Xerxes and all the Par’si’e’ans believe, they are doing these things for their own prosperity and glory, and for despoiling their own enemies.
28/20.21. And, after Xerxes has despoiled and conquered all the earth regions, Baal and all other Gods shall be driven away from the oracles and temples. Xerxes shall issue a decree, abolishing all other Gods but me, Ashtaroth.
28/20.22. And when I am thus well anchored on the earth, I will turn my legions against this new upstart God, the Triune, Looeamong. And I will cast him into a hell, from which he shall never escape!
28/20.23. So, Ashtaroth concentrated her heavenly warriors into this great and desperate work. For she had been maturing her plans, even before Xerxes came to the throne of Par’si’e. And, since, in those days, the kings and rich men in all those countries consulted the spirits [oracles or pythians –Ed.], in reference to all important undertakings, it was not a difficult feat for Ashtaroth to obsess the millions of Par’si’e’ans to carry out her project.
28/20.24. Accordingly, Ashtaroth commanded her marshals to summon two billion angel warriors, men and women, for the work in hand. And when they came to Neabissa, a heavenly region to the north, over the earth-mountains Afflo’yagga [Caucasus –Ed.], she had Mateus, her chief orator, prepare a speech on her behalf, and have it declaimed1128 before the angel warriors.
28/20.25. Mateus, a one-time Lord to Osiris, nine hundred years previous, now made the speech, and this that follows is a synopsis:
28/20.26. I, Goddess of all the heavens and of the whole earth. Behold me, Ashtaroth! The earth and the heavens are mine, says Ashtaroth! I cut the sun in two; for it is mine. I cut the pieces again; for they were mine. From these, I made the stars and the moon. But the great earth I made as my footstool; for it was mine, and ever shall be.
28/20.27. I peopled it over with all the living; they were my creation. And you also are mine. I peopled the stars, and gave the inhabitants great delights. And the earth and my heavens were places of great delight. For, I gave bountifully to all my children.
28/20.28. But the inhabitants of the far-off stars quarreled because of an evil God, Baal. And they cast him out. And he came here to despoil me and my heavenly places. Witness O my beloved, I could destroy him with my little finger. But he is unworthy of your Goddess. To you I give the glory of capturing him, casting him into hell, and torturing him forever.
28/20.29. But lest other evil Gods take possession of his earthly places, they shall also be destroyed. Hear then the command of Ashtaroth, which is, that you shall go down to the earth, and obsess and inspire the Par’si’e’ans to march forth and destroy all other people on the earth, beginning first with the stronghold of Baal, in Argos, where he has many sub-Gods under him, where the Argos’yans, not knowing him, call him, Zeus.
28/20.30. And to those who prove valorous among my angel warriors, I will give great promotion and glory, and thousands and millions of slaves. For when Baal is overcome and cast into hell, you shall take his angel slaves, and possess them yourselves, according to your valorous deeds. ||
28/20.31. Ashtaroth then officered her angel hosts, and sent them down to the earth, where her captains and generals distributed them throughout Par’si’e. And they were directed to preside in the presence of mortals by day, inspiring them to war against Argos, and to be with them at night, and talk to them spiritually in dreams and visions.
28/20.32. And it came to pass that Xerxes and the people, the Par’si’e’ans, were moved to go forth and destroy the Argos’yans. And king Xerxes took two and a half million soldiers with him for his army. And so great was the inspiration and obsession of Ashtaroth’s angels, that they caused another two and a half million Par’si’e’ans to go with Xerxes’ soldiers. So that Xerxes’ whole army was five million souls, which was the largest army on earth that ever had been, or ever shall be.

CHAPTER 21 Eskra
28/21.1. Baal, God of the Argos’yans (Greeks), called together two billion angel warriors, and after properly officering them, caused them to assemble in Beth’hagas, a sub-kingdom of heaven over the Tillag mountains, to the north of Macedon, and he said to them:
28/21.2. Behold your Creator, who I am! By my breath upon the earth you came forth. I am he, who was of old called, De’yus [Zeus –Ed.], Lord God of heaven and earth. All places are my places, all dominion is mine.
28/21.3. My heavens I gave to you for your inheritance forever. But an evil Goddess, Ashtaroth, has come to despoil you.
28/21.4. And she has sworn upon her thighs to cast you into endless torments.
28/21.5. Behold, I have sworn a new oath on the sun and moon and stars! You shall capture her, and cast her and all her angels into hell, to abide there forever.
28/21.6. For I will clear the heavens and the earth, and they shall be clean and full of delight.
28/21.7. Hear, then, the commandment of your God, Baal, ruler of heaven and earth: You shall go down to the earth, to the Argos’yans, and obsess them, man, woman and child, and inspire them to terrible deeds of bloody havoc and death against the Par’si’e’ans who are coming against them.
28/21.8. And while you are thus providing corporeal destruction for this evil Goddess, my heavenly hosts under Yaawochad, my Lord of Agansetha, shall attack her angel armies in every quarter of these heavens.
28/21.9. And as fast as her drujas are captured, they shall be cast into the hells of Gotha, which I have prepared for them. And to all my valorous workers I will give great promotion and power. You shall have servants and slaves without number. ||
28/21.10. Now it came to pass, that many years of war and destruction ensued; but Baal’s hosts were too powerful for Ashtaroth. And so Baal not only overcame her angel warriors on the earth, but in her heavenly capital also. And his legions rushed upon her, and captured her. At which her own angels turned against her, perceiving now that she was an impostor, and not the Creator.
28/21.11. And they bound her, and carried her and her Lords and Gods off to Toosemmes, a heavenly place of foul smells, in Gotha, and here they built a place of torment for her and them, and cast them in. And they brought here tens of thousands of her officers, and cast them in, and also the spirits of kings and queens and of generals and captains who had been her devotees, who were slain in battle, and who were yet in chaos.
28/21.12. Thus ended the God-ship of Ashtaroth. And thus cast into this hell, voluntary and involuntary, were two billion angels. ||
28/21.13. Looeamong, the Triune God, said: This is the end, number one; next shall fall Baal; and him I will also cast in hell.
28/21.14. As to mortals, Xerxes’ mighty armies did not live to return to Par’si’e, but were scattered and destroyed. As to the Argos’yans, they were a ruined people.
28/21.15. And all those countries were covered over with the spirits of the dead, in chaos.
28/21.16. For these wars had been going on for many, many years.
28/21.17. Hear next of Kabalactes, Triune God of Vind’yu and her heavens.

CHAPTER 18 Eskra
The meaning and origin of the term, Holy Ghost!
28/18.1. There came to Paradise, God’s heavenly place, one Taenas, a messenger from the chiefs of the so-called Holy Confederacy. God’s chief marshal conducted him before God, and, being commanded to speak, he said:
28/18.2. Greeting to you, O God. On behalf of the Three Sons of the Holy Ghost, I come before you to proclaim their words. I have been instructed by them, what to say, and I declare to you, O God, my words are their words.
28/18.3. First, that you may hear us before we are adjudged; second, as you claim liberty to think and to speak for yourself, so do we all. And if error comes from our proceedings, it is our own matter, and not yours.
28/18.4. As you say: Behold the All Person, so do we not say; but we say: Behold the all expanse; it is only a shadow, a ghost. And for convenience’ sake, we name it, Holy Ghost.
28/18.5. Is this not our privilege? Who can deny us? Has one man rightful dominion over another? Or one captain, or one God?
28/18.6. God said: Proceed.
28/18.7. Taenas said: If we are right, then we ourselves shall judge what we will do. But if you are right, and this thing is an All Person, then you are His servant to do His will. Are these points true?
28/18.8. God said: It seems so.
28/18.9. Taenas said: And liberty to both sides?
28/18.10. God said: Yes.
28/18.11. Taenas said: When I was a child, I was helped to walk; but now that I am strong, I walk alone. Why then shall my judgment not also walk alone?
28/18.12. God said: Proceed, and I will speak afterward.
28/18.13. Taenas said: We have seen in ages past, that peace has always been proclaimed by the followers of Jehovih; and that both on earth and in heaven such people become the sufferers and victims of tyrants of earth and of false Gods in heaven.
28/18.14. We propose war, in the name of the Holy Ghost, both on earth and in heaven. We can have no war with you or your people, on earth, or in heaven; for you and your people, angels and mortals, are all peace, and do not war.
28/18.15. Our wars can be only with warriors. I put the matter this way: You have a virgin daughter, and a villain assails her; your doctrine is to rush in and take your daughter away from him; our doctrine is to beat him away from her.
28/18.16. We see evil Gods and evil spirits, assailing virtuous people on earth and in heaven. We propose to war them to destruction, for righteousness’ sake. Accordingly, we are more to your favor, O God, than against you.
28/18.17. We dip our hands in blood for the sake of peace and virtue, for the sake of liberty and knowledge. We shall say to the man of earth: You shall become learned! To the es’yan in heaven: You shall not return to mortals, but remain in your place, and become learned and virtuous.
28/18.18. For which reason we come to you, O God, so that you may know our foundation.
28/18.19. God said: Who then, do you say, men and angels shall worship?
28/18.20. Taenas said: In this, we do not command them. But we give them liberty to worship whomever they will.
28/18.21. God said: You have said: Our doctrine is to beat the villain away from the virgin; but what will you, or your example, teach?
28/18.22. Taenas answered: That an assailant deserves punishment.
28/18.23. God said: And will you say to the peaceful and virtuous: Take up arms, give your enemies torments?
28/18.24. Taenas answered: Yes, truly.
28/18.25. God said: And by what authority, if they inquire of you?
28/18.26. Taenas said: By authority of the Holy Ghost, and the Father (the Confederacy), and by the Son, that is, each and every Lord of the Confederacy.
28/18.27. For we shall teach mortals and angels that all things are by law; and the word, law, shall take the place of the term, Great Spirit, or Jehovih.
28/18.28. God said: Hear me, then, O Taenas, and in love bear my words to your so-called Triune Confederacy, and to the high leaders, saying to them, thus says God of Paradise, Son of Jehovih, according to the light of this throne:
28/18.29. You shall triumph for a long season on earth and in heaven; but not in the way you suppose.
28/18.30. For you will be forced to provide a worshipful head for mortals and angels. And it will come to pass, your three heavenly places will become known on earth and in heaven as the Triune Gods, or Trinity!
28/18.31. And the people will worship an imaginary figure of three parts, Father, Son and Holy Ghost. And this will become their idol; and he will be accredited with love, anger, jealousy, favoritism, war and destruction.
28/18.32. Because you say: Give punishment to the wicked, you open the door of all evil. For he who has a quarrel with his neighbor, will accuse him as deserving punishment. Those who are in darkness, and being mighty, will fall upon the weak, and slay them.
28/18.33. A quarrel will ensue in your three heavenly kingdoms, and you will become as three false Gods. And since you do not profess the All Person, each of you three Gods will be forced to announce himself as such.
28/18.34. For the rule applies to all men and to all angels, that those who deny an All Highest Person in the Creator, become establishers of idolatry to themselves.
28/18.35. You have said: We shall leave mortals and angels to worship whom they will. Well, then, is it not well to worship Baal? And Dagon? And Ashtaroth? And yet, these Gods make slaves of their subjects, who worship them.
28/18.36. Taenas said: No, they are evil Gods. We will deliver their slaves into freedom.
28/18.37. God said: Who is master, and who is slave? Either on earth, or in heaven? Why not abolish your Triune Confederacy, lest you rule over others? And you profess liberty, so why not practice it?
28/18.38. Because you proclaim liberty as your chief object, you will entice the unlearned, the truant, the idle, and the lazy; for all these claim their weaknesses to be the boon of liberty.
28/18.39. It shall come to pass, in the far-distant future, your kingdoms will be made up of the lowest grades. And they will pull you all down from your present high resolves; and you will become tyrants and evil Gods yourselves, and meet the fate of all your predecessors.
28/18.40. The earth and its heavens were given into my keeping, for the resurrection of all the inhabitants; but I have neither commission nor desire to accomplish dominion by violence. Because you have withdrawn from my kingdoms, it is an act of your own.
28/18.41. Even my own grief at your secession shows me, how short I am in comprehending Jehovih’s ways. For I declare to you, O Taenas, and through you to your chiefs, that though your course seems evil in my sight, yet it will be proven in the distant future, that Jehovih will appropriate your labors to an ultimate good.
28/18.42. Go therefore with my words to the chiefs of the Triunes. I part with you all as a father parts with a son, who goes into a consuming fire.
28/18.43. Taenas said: In reverence to you, O God, I go to those who pity you for your too peaceful ways.
28/18.44. And with that, Taenas saluted in reverence, and departed, going his way.

CHAPTER 17 Eskra
28/17.1. God proclaimed a day of recreation in Paradise, so that the inhabitants could meet Moses and his hosts, and rejoice with them. And great was that day in Paradise.
28/17.2. On the following day, going to the place of deliverance, Moses departed for the Eguptian people who had been in hell with Nu-ghan. And there were eleven million four hundred thousand of these spirits. Moses conferred with the inspectors as to suitable places for them, and having decided on a convenient region, Elaban, he ordered their removal to there.
28/17.3. And Moses went with them to Elaban, an isolated region on the Aratesaian plateau, and remained with them one hundred and twelve days, establishing them with nurseries, hospitals and factories; and he appointed officers for them, to every group and series, going among them in person and ministering to tens of thousands of them, and providing them places of worship.
28/17.4. After that, Moses appointed Salesmon as captain over them. Then Moses departed and returned to Paradise, where he remained two more days, and then took leave and departed for his own heavenly place in Nirvania. But before he departed, he said: When the a’ji’an forest is past and gone, and if it is Jehovih’s will, I shall return again to look after my hosts.
28/17.5. And now God’s attention was directed to the Hebrews, the Faithists of Western Arabin’ya, where the false God Baal had gained access and power; having affiliated with one Dagon, a false God, located in those regions, who maintained six earthly oracle-houses and a small heavenly kingdom of his own.
28/17.6. And it came to pass, that the Hebrews were a divided people. A small minority of them still worshipped Jehovih, having colleges of prophecy and places of learning. But the great majority of them were worshippers of the Lord and God, believing the Great Spirit was only a large man in heaven, after the manner of Baal, Dagon, Ashtaroth, or any other God.
28/17.7. God said of them: Though they pretend to be of many kinds, I see only two: Those who worship the Ever Present, Jehovih; and those who are drifting into heathenism.
28/17.8. My eyes behold the true Faithists with colleges and with books of learning; but, as for the others, they are becoming consulters of the oracles (spirits), the same as the heathens.
28/17.9. How can they remain a united people? The Gods of one city and temple teach one doctrine, and the Gods of another place teach another doctrine.
28/17.10. || God had previously sent to Ebeneezer, one Jerub, with ten thousand assistant angel strategists, to be with the king of the Faithists (Israelites). Jerub now asked for another ten thousand, and God sent them to him. And God said to Jerub:
28/17.11. A war will presently result between Baal, Ashtaroth, Dagon, and Haughak; and these Gods will not only war in heaven, but they will carry their battles down to mortals.
28/17.12. And the Israelites will not only forsake their ancient doctrine of peace, but will become great warriors, both against other nations and peoples, and against one another.
28/17.13. Take heed, O Jerub, of the words of your God; and while Baal and Ashtaroth are in conflict and neglectful of the temples and oracles, you shall possess these.
28/17.14. It is better that these false Gods win to themselves as dutiful subjects, five angels, than one mortal.
28/17.15. Guard well all the colleges of prophecy against the emissaries of these false Gods. And see to it that the worshippers of Jehovih have born to themselves a goodly number of prophets.

CHAPTER 16 Eskra
Moses in heaven pays the judgment of Jehovih!
28/16.1. Hamonastas, one of the chief marshals of God, and for the heavenly city of Paradise, came before the throne, duly saluting, and saying:
28/16.2. O God, Son of Jehovih, I would speak before you! God said: Speak, my son.
28/16.3. Hamonastas said: There stands outside the city of Paradise, beyond the pillars of fire, and in company with your high-raised captains, one Nu-ghan, delivered from one of the hells of Hassa, over Egupt, and he cries out continually: O God, Son of Jehovih! Deliver me! Deliver me! O Moses! Moses! Moses!
28/16.4. He is distracted, continually using the same words over and over, without ceasing. Now behold, the nurses and physicians have tried all the remedies they can invent, but failed utterly to break the spell upon him.
28/16.5. For seventy days they have labored, and, as a last resort, they have brought him here, in order to learn from you.
28/16.6. God said: Nu-ghan! Is this not one of the Pharaohs, who took up arms against the Faithists of Egupt? Return, Hamonastas, to the keepers of this man, and have him blindfolded so that he may endure the light of the throne, then you and his keepers shall bring him before me.
28/16.7. Hamonastas saluted and departed, and after a certain time, returned with the keepers and Nu-ghan, who was crying out unceasingly, even as had been said.
28/16.8. And now, when he was quite before the throne of God, God said to him: Behold me, I am God, Son of Jehovih; what may I do for you?
28/16.9. But the man did not hear what God said, but kept crying out as before. So God said to the keepers: Remove the blinds a little, so that the light may come upon him.
28/16.10. And they removed the blinds a little; but, lo and behold, the light made him more distracted than before. And when God saw his deplorable suffering, he inquired of his keepers as to how long the man had been in hell, and they said: Seventy-six years, and in a knot, three years!
28/16.11. God said: I know that this is Pharaoh, who persecuted the Jews. Take him again outside the walls, and retain him there. I will send one of my swift messengers to Lika, in etherea, who knows the abiding place of Moses. Perhaps Moses put a curse upon him! If so, only Moses can deliver him.
28/16.12. And the keepers took the spirit, Nu-ghan, outside the city, as commanded by God. And God sent the swift messenger, Haeroponitis, sister of Raban, in an arrow-ship of fire to the etherean worlds, to Gussawanitcha, Lika’s sojourning place at that time, commanding her to lay the matter before the Nirvanian chief, Lika.
28/16.13. || Now the report continues in the words of Haeroponitis, that is, these are her words, namely: In not many days’ time I came before Jehovih’s throne, upon which sat Lika, through whose etherean provinces the solar phalanx was now traveling, and I told him the story of Nu-ghan.
28/16.14. After which Lika, Son of Jehovih, said: Let my reporters of destinations go find Moses; and if it is true that Moses put a judgment on Nu-ghan, then Moses must return to the lower heavens, and deliver him. The justice of Jehovih reaches to all time and place.
28/16.15. Haeroponitis continued: So I saluted before the throne of Jehovih, and in company with the reporters of destinations, started forth again in the etherean realms, and after passing through seven worlds, and more than three hundred Nirvanian kingdoms, we entered the plains of Sapeas, where the colleges and schools of Embassies, belonging to the Ghiturpsan board of Ritivius, are situated. And here we found Moses!
28/16.16. Who, having been told that he was inquired after, no sooner looked upon us than he prophesied the cause.
28/16.17. Moses said: Alas me! Because you have come for me, you have awakened in me that which slept all these hundreds of years. Yes, it is true, I put a curse upon Pharaoh; for I said to him: You shall yet call upon me to deliver you out of torments. And I added to it, afterward, saying of the blood of the sacrifice of the lamb: This shall be the testimony of innocent blood against yourself and your people for what the Hebrews have suffered.
28/16.18. Instead of this, I should have forgiven him. O Jehovih! Jehovih! I have sinned before You! And You have searched me out after all these years, and brought the matter home to me.
28/16.19. You are just, O Almighty! In Your name and by Your wisdom and power I will return to the lower heavens, and take in charge the man and people I adjudged!
28/16.20. And Moses wept; and he gave command to the builders to provide him at once with a suitable boat of great fleetness. And then Moses procured thirty thousand volunteers to go with him.
28/16.21. And when all things were ready, Moses took leave of his companions, and he and his hosts entered his fire-boat, and presently our two vessels were under way, as if in a race, for the red star, the earth. After some days, we arrived in the heavens of the earth, at the city of Paradise, the abiding place of God. ||
28/16.22. So ends a brief of the heavenly report of Haeroponitis, for, on her arrival in Paradise, her mission was completed for the present.
28/16.23. When it was known in Paradise that Moses was coming, great joy was manifested, for God and the Holy Eleven and the Holy Council all desired to see Moses. And God commanded the full board of marshals and also the musicians to go outside the capital, and meet Moses, and escort him before the throne. And they accomplished these things; and Moses came before the throne of God, saluting in the sign, JUDGMENT OF TIME! And God answered him under the sign, YOUR LABOR IS OUR JOY AND GLORY!
28/16.24. And God said: In Jehovih’s name, O Moses, come, and honor my throne.
28/16.25. And Moses went up, and sat on the throne, at the right hand of God. And Moses said to the Holy Council and to the Holy Eleven:
28/16.26. Your God shall be my God. In his love and dominion I am cast by Jehovih’s will, to deliver those who have suffered from me and my words.
28/16.27. God said: Shall we not have a day of recreation first?
28/16.28. Moses said: No; till I have delivered Nu-ghan, who was Pharaoh, there can be no peace. Permit, therefore, your marshals to go to the keepers of this man, and bring him before this throne.
28/16.29. And soon, Nu-ghan was brought in again, all muffled up, to keep the light from hurting him. And he was still crying out: O God, Son of Jehovih! O Moses! Moses! Moses!
28/16.30. And when Moses saw this, he was nearly overcome by the pitiful scene. Moses brushed away his tears, and rose up, raising his hands to Jehovih, saying: Light of Your Light, O Jehovih! Power of Your Power, O Jehovih! Deliver him, whom I accursed! Put his grief and sorrows upon me, who has sinned against him!
28/16.31. A mantle of yellow light, cloud-like, descended upon Moses, as he stood transfixed before Jehovih. All the place was still as death!
28/16.32. The blinds and muffles on Nu-ghan fell off, and he stood silent and motionless, gazing with fixed awe upon the holy scene, and upon Moses on the throne of God!
28/16.33. The spirit of Jehovih moved upon the holy place, and the musicians felt the power. It was the light of one who was mighty, from the etherean worlds!
28/16.34. Gently, then, the music of ten thousand voices fell upon the holy audience. First mild, as if far off, then louder and louder, as if coming near, till soon the words of the anthem proclaimed Jehovih’s praise.
28/16.35. Nu-ghan did not turn his eyes from the glory of Moses and the etherean mantle, for he knew Moses, even as if it were only yesterday that they parted in Egupt, on the earth.
28/16.36. Slowly now, Moses lowered his up-stretched arms, and his hands were brilliant, like yellow fire. And Moses said, solemnly: All praise to You, Jehovih! (Eloih!) You are just, You Almighty Creator!
28/16.37. Nu-ghan added: For through Him is all deliverance, worlds without end. In Your praise I will sing forever, O Jehovih, O Most High God of Moses, my Deliverer! Make me strong, O Jehovih, so I can look upon him, whom I persecuted and abused.
28/16.38. Then Moses looked upon Pharaoh (Nu-ghan) and said: These things had to be. You were the last of the pyramidal age of man, and I was the first founder of the migration of the righteous. All things are done by Jehovih, in His own way and time.
28/16.39. As I have been bound by my curse upon you and your people, to come back to deliver you and them; so, by your curse against Israel, you shall now return down to the earth, and labor to lift up Israel.
28/16.40. For Israel has fallen from communities, and has taken to kings, in the same manner as the heathen and the idolater. Her people are divided and broken up, and many of them have become worshippers of the false Gods, Baal and Ashtaroth.
28/16.41. Yes, they are forgetful of my commandment of peace and love, and have taken to war and earthly aggrandizement.
28/16.42. And you shall take with you ten thousand angels of exalted grades, and go down to the earth, to the habitations of the Israelites; and by inspiration, you and your hosts shall select and inspire those Israelites who are within reach of inspiration, and you shall take them away from all others of their people, and from the heathen and idolatrous tribes, that are around them.
28/16.43. And you and your hosts shall abide with these mortals hundreds of years; re-establishing them in peace and non-resistance, in the manner of the doctrines in the es’sean worlds. And you shall call them, Es’seans, so that they may be distinguished from all other peoples.
28/16.44. Nu-ghan said: Your decree is most just, O Moses, and I know in truth your words are Jehovih’s. Tell me, how long shall this labor be for me and my hosts?
28/16.45. Moses said: Some hundreds of years! Until you have raised a light sufficient for Jehovih, so that peace and love and the doctrine of good for evil is again re-established from the blood of the Israelites, even as by the blood of the lamb, I delivered Jehovih’s people out of Egupt.
28/16.46. And when you have perfected the generations of the Es’seans, certain loo’is shall be sent to you from the throne of God, and they will labor with you until an Israelite capable of the Father’s Voice is born into the mortal world.
28/16.47. Nu-ghan said: Hear me now in my plea, O Moses, you who are Son of the Most High: When I died as to the earth, and entered heaven (these worlds), I found before me, my kingdom in heaven waiting for me!
28/16.48. And they were miserable, being beggars, slaves and idiots, because of the slavery I had put upon them in the earth-life. And I could not escape them, or put them aside. If I went away objectively, then subjectively I remembered them, and was drawn back to them.
28/16.49. Yes, I was like a young colt when first being haltered, pulls away, but fails; then pulls again, and fails, and so on, until he finds he cannot escape, then tamely submits; even so was I bound to my kingdom, and obliged in the end to yield and become a slave to them, to provide for them. For I had so despoiled them of their talents, they were as helpless as infants; and many of them were wicked in the extreme.
28/16.50. Nevertheless, I accepted that which I could not escape; I toiled with them hundreds of years, restoring them as well as I could. And in time a ray of happiness came to me, in the hope that in hundreds of years to come I would find my way out.
28/16.51. But, alas me! Darkness (a’ji) came upon my already dark heaven. My evil ones, those whom I did have slaughtered on earth, came upon me for vengeance’ sake. Anarchy over-flooded me and my people. They became very demons of madness, and they seized me and bound me, and bruised me, and suffocated me with horrid smells. Millions of them! And their curses pierced me like poisoned arrows. Long I fought them; and I cried out to you and to Jehovih! But, alas! I was in hell. None could hear my prayers. For days and months and years I held out, but only to experience new and more terrible horrors!
28/16.52. How long this woe was upon me, I do not know. I only remember that my soul sickened within me; and I felt a sinking and a fainting, like an endless death that could not extinguish me. To me it seemed ten thousand ages!
28/16.53. Suddenly I find myself here! Distracted before you, O holy Son of the Great Spirit! How did I get here? What has occurred? Or is this just the spell of a delirious dream? And will I relapse again into that terrible nightmare of horrors? How can I go forth without my old kingdom coming upon me?
28/16.54. Do they not wait somewhere close by, to seize me again, for renewed torments? O teach me, Moses! How can I fulfill your righteous judgment? And not be entrapped again, and, perhaps, forever!
28/16.55. Moses said: I will give you a new name, and I will clothe you in garments of my own making, so that they would rather flee from you, than come to you.
28/16.56. And Moses gathered up of the yellow, cloud-like mantle of light, and made a mantle for Nu-ghan and clothed him; and he named him, Illaes, signifying, Servant of Light. And after that, Illaes was provided with ten thousand co-laborers, assisted by Gafonaya, and sent back to the earth, on his mission.
28/16.57. And God appointed one hundred messengers to Pharaoh, so that word could be transmitted every month to Paradise.

CHAPTER 12 Eskra
28/12.1. God, Son of Jehovih, through his Holy Council, in Paradise, his heavenly seat, now decreed:
28/12.2. To the Faithists of Arabin’ya, Ebeneezer, captain, with five million angels as a protecting host. To the Faithists of Chine’ya, Luiwitha, captain, with ten million angels as a protecting host. To the Faithists of Vind’yu, Li Chong, captain, with eight million angels as a protecting host. To the Faithists of Guatama, Manito, captain, with ten million angels as a protecting host.
28/12.3. And to each of the captains I give authority to draw additional armies from the Lords who hold dominions in the regions where they may be.
28/12.4. But it so happened that the lowest heavenly plateaus were also engaged in wars.
28/12.5. And in less than a hundred years of a’ji many of the Lords were without kingdoms, and, with a few chosen friends, had become involuntary wandering spirits, scattered about in all the heavens of the earth, or upon the earth.
28/12.6. God saw this, and he called out to them, through his messengers, saying: Having lost your kingdoms, why will you lose yourselves? Is it not better that you fall to work in the remaining kingdoms, and by your steadfastness, help to maintain faith in Jehovih in the hearts of the less learned?
28/12.7. But satan (self) gained access to their souls, saying to each one of them: You, who have been Lord of the hosts of heaven! You, take a place like a common laborer! You would be laughed at! The non-resistant policy is good enough in times and places of peace. But now is war. And war can only be overcome by war. If great De’yus was overcome and cast into hell, why not our God also? || So they did not heed God.

CHAPTER 13 Eskra
28/13.1. And Lords and high officers, whose heavenly places had fallen, came to Paradise in different companies of tens, twenties and even hundreds, from various heavenly regions around and about the earth, and having secured audience before God and his Holy Council, they said:
28/13.2. Since we have been faithful in all things, and dutiful servants to Jehovih, what have we gained? Our kingdoms and high places have fallen to pieces through no fault of our own. Indeed, our angels have gone off into anarchy. Where, then, is the justice of Jehovih?
28/13.3. God said to them: Of what profit under the sun is discussion?
28/13.4. If you fail in one way, try another; and in no case seek to justify yourselves before Jehovih. He is Judge!
28/13.5. There are already hells that have been standing for years. Is it not wiser that you join together, and go and deliver them? Behold, Jehovih has furnished us roadways beforehand; and His Voice came to us prophesying that this very darkness would come upon us. And you were advised, and had sufficient time to provide for the worst.
28/13.6. Go forth, then, not complaining, but rejoicing, and in Jehovih’s name doing with all your wisdom and strength, regardless of favor. ||
28/13.7. Thus they came before God, group after group, for years; but were forever rebuked in the spirit of Jehovih, and they went away, but not to work righteously, but to sympathize with one another, and to complain against God and against the Holy Council of Paradise.
28/13.8. In groups they assembled in places of their own, and began to philosophize on the ways of heaven and earth. And every one was sworn within himself to do no evil thing, but to find some more respectable way of serving Jehovih, than by going among the ignorant and depraved.
28/13.9. And they became accustomed to meeting regularly in three places in hada: in Haractu, over Vind’yu, in Eta-shong, over Chine’ya, and in Hapsendi, over Egupt. And these became like great heavenly cities, because of the congregating of the angels of heaven, which continued for many years.
28/13.10. Now, finally, they resolved to organize each one of these three places, each to be under a distinct head, and to unite the three heads into one confederacy, with the whole to be dedicated to the service of Jehovih. Thus was founded the CONFEDERACY OF THE HOLY GHOST. And by acclamation, three angels were raised to the three capitals, namely: Kabalactes, of Haractu; Ennochissa, of Eta-shong; and Looeamong, of Hapsendi. And each and every one of the three took the title, SON OF THE HOLY GHOST. All three had been Lords, and were high in grade.
28/13.11. Ennochissa selected seven angels, and gave them the rank of Lord, namely: Haptu, Vazista, Mira, Erasigi, Adamon, Amesh and Cacpa.
28/13.12. Kabalactes selected seven angels, and gave them the rank of Lord, namely: Li Wan, Amatar, Wenates, Howickam, Shong Tsee, Massaqactus and Enniscabab.
28/13.13. Looeamong selected seven angels, and gave them the rank of Lord, namely: Petubusetta, Rodi, Monulithens, Miriam, Zitullia, Zestes and Abarothmes.
28/13.14. Such, then, was the established confederacy, which was to play so great a part in the history of heaven and earth. And it differed from all other confederacies, because its members all professed to serve Jehovih. And it required of all its people an oath of allegiance to Jehovih, but under the name, Holy Ghost, for they denied His Person as such.1122
28/13.15. And God admonished them, saying: Though you are wise in your own conceit, yet you shall fail. For, having denied His Person, then you yourselves will become the Person in the understanding of the multitude. And in this you will, sooner or later, come to grief.
28/13.16. But, nevertheless, the confederacy did not heed the words of God. And God was grieved at heart, for Jehovih’s sake.

CHAPTER 11 Eskra
28/11.1. And now earth and heaven came into the a’ji’an forest of Aghanodis, and the pressure was upon all sides of the earth’s vortex, even beyond Chinvat.
28/11.2. And the heavenly kingdoms were stirred up; and the nations of the earth were in trial.
28/11.3. In the great city of Paradise, heavenly seat of God, the multitudes of angels, the billions, were made to look upward, outward, to know the Almighty.
28/11.4. As a’ji drives the weak angels of heaven to seek a lower field, so does it on earth drive polluted nations to war and to avarice and to death.
28/11.5. When only the second shower of a dozen years had fallen, mortals in many nations of the earth rushed into war. And even the Faithists began to clamor for kings and standing armies, with great captains and generals, to lead them on to mortal dominion.
28/11.6. The Israelites made a mortal king, and by their behavior, said: Rather man than Jehovih. Behold, we will have the Lord with us to fight our battles!
28/11.7. And Baal, God of the idolaters, heard and saw, and gloried in the course of events; and he hastened to the scene with millions of his angel slaves to inspire the Israelites to glory in the Lord and God, whom he assumed to be.
28/11.8. And millions of the Israelites fell beneath his power and became his spiritual slaves. The others, still steadfast in the secret oral rites, remained true to the secret name and Person, Jehovih (E-O-Ih).
28/11.9. When Ashtaroth saw Baal’s success, then for the first time ever, after two thousand years’ friendship to Baal, she became jealous and filled with vengeful wrath.
28/11.10. She said: I see now how this traitorous God has planned to beat me in the regions west of Heleste and Uropa. By the flesh of my thighs I swear, this thing shall not be! I will send a hundred million warring angels down to Babylon, Tyre, Yedmon, and Luce, to inspire their mortal kings to make war on the westward cities, the strongholds of Baal. And as to impoverished Egupt, I will send sufficient mortal armies to destroy everything in that land.
28/11.11. Yes, I will also send my legions among the Israelites, and inspire them that I, Ashtaroth, am the only true Lord and true God. I will divide them up like a broken bundle of straw, and cast them to the four winds of heaven. ||
28/11.12. On the other hand, Baal said: Because of my success, I know Ashtaroth will be jealous and full of anger; therefore, I will place a standing army between her heavens and mine; and if she dares to molest me, I will send my millions against her heavens and despoil her utterly, so that she shall be cast in hell!

CHAPTER 9 Eskra
28/9.1. The Lord said: Aside from the orderly kingdoms of God, there were seven false kingdoms in hada, ruled over by false Gods and false Goddesses. Chief of these were Baal, with four billion angel slaves; the false Yima, with four billion angel slaves; Ashtaroth, false Goddess, with three billion angel slaves; Hi’lizar, with three billion angel slaves; Sodonius, false Goddess, with two million angel slaves, and then came Fue-Sin, and Hrivatza. Besides these there were six hundred false Lords and Lordesses, who had occupied the mortal temples of worship, and the oracle temples.
28/9.2. But the latter were driven away from mortals by command of God, so that they might be induced to seek resurrection.
28/9.3. And God foresaw that the travel of the earth would cause her to pass through an a’ji’an forest for four hundred years, and that darkness would be upon the lower heavens.
28/9.4. And God sent angel inspectors, numerators, recorders, and others, down to the earth to prepare the record of mortals for the libraries of heaven. And of these angels there were four hundred thousand inspectors; twelve thousand numerators; ninety thousand graders; forty thousand recorders and scribes; and six hundred thousand bearers. Besides these were messengers, heralds and musicians, of whom there were sixty thousand.
28/9.5. Such was the army sent down to the earth according to God’s command. And they were under the charge of Toyvraghah, Yulis, Hagonte and Rufus.
28/9.6. And God called up the great mathematicians, Yahimus, Menres, Fargawitha, Howitchkal, Jemima, Jordan, Molakka, Kossitus, Makkas and Agebon; and God said to them:
28/9.7. The time of the fall of a’ji on the earth is at hand. Compute the regions of the earth where it will fall most; and having determined, go to those mortal prophets who are in su’is, and cause them to prophesy to the inhabitants of the earth.
28/9.8. The mathematicians saluted and departed for the earth, as commanded by God.
28/9.9. Now when God foresaw that darkness was near at hand, for a period of four hundred years, he commanded his Holy Council and his heavenly kingdoms to pray to Jehovih for the space of one day, for wisdom and strength.
28/9.10. In answer to their prayers, a swift messenger from Lika, Orian Chief, Son of Jehovih, came from Takuspe, in the etherean worlds, in an etherean arrow-ship, with thirty thousand. His name was Yotaportas, God of Eriasa, in the plains of Woo’Sin. And when he had come before the throne of God, duly saluting, he said:
28/9.11. In Jehovih’s name I come, greeting by His Son, Lika. God said: In Jehovih’s name I am blessed by your presence, God of Eriasa, Nirvanian Host. What is your message?
28/9.12. Yotaportas said: By command of Jehovih, through His exalted Son, you shall withdraw your emissaries from the kingdoms of Baal and Ashtaroth, and from all kingdoms on the earth, whose mortals pay obedience to false Gods. A’ji of four hundred years will reign upon the earth and her heavens. It is so determined and provided by the Holy Etherean Dispensers of roads in Vragapathon. Of which matters I am sent to you so that you may be duly provided for this.
28/9.13. The time is also now at hand when the I’hins, the sacred people, the mound-builders, will cease to dwell on the earth. The darkness, which is necessary to the earth, will be too much for them.
