What is to be learned by examining the life of Yahweh? Aristotle had the answer:
Elements of Greek Tragedy:
Image of God
Mimesis is copying the shifting appearances of the world. This is the Mystery (both Mystery School and Biblical) imaging itself from archetype
to form in a predictable pattern throughout all of history. Creation is eating itself, then reforming as another image in sequence, just as cells
live, produce, then replicate. Look at the words themselves. CrEATure. CrEATion. Food of one form or another is used to transmute from one form to
the other in a cycle. This is what Mimesis is. It is imitating an action with magnitude. When Jesus says, "He IS, Was and IS TO COME," what is he
saying? Mimesis as Logos of archetypes. All names, in all stories and myths, are expressing in a pattern of behavior from Aleph to Tav (beginning to
end).
Now that you can relate the names (like Elohim, Ruach Elohim, EL and so on) to the elements and pattern, here are the rest of the patterns and
archetypes in simulation to the Monad (first animation of unity to multiplicity). One moves to Two to create Logos. Three allows for division of the
two.
Catharsis - Purification - Who experiences Catharsis? Both audience and characters. It first raises pity and fear, then purifies and purges.
Like Dew falling to the ground, the sun rises to evaporate and distill. The reason a parallel exists is simple: All of it is a repeat from top to
bottom in image. Each of us are tiny universes experiencing storms, evaporation and cleansing. Above and below, the same elements in nature are
repeating in parallel.
Pathos - Tragic Act - Yahweh is the tragic hero. He's neither a villain, nor model of perfection. We all notice that Yahweh is not a paragon
of virtue by his hubris. His fortune with the people of Israel is due to the mistake he cannot see. There are many of these heroes in the Bible.
Abraham is a good example. What is one of Abraham's great flaws that we do not typically discuss?
When Sarah complains about Hagar and Issac, Yahweh tells Abraham to send them away. Abraham gives them ONE jug of water and some bread, then sends
them out into the wilderness. Abraham had wealth untold, yet does this act of unkindness to his own family. Elohim then assists Abraham's Son and
Hagar to become a great nation from the edge of destruction. Again, the pattern repeats over and over again.
Hamartia is the flaw, or error of the hero (also characters). In all cases, the gods of Greek tragedy are somehow in relation to the flaw of
the characters below. This is the nature of the image. It reflects both ways.
Anagnorisis - This word means discovery. It is the process to move from one point (Aleph) to the other (Tav / Omega). Along the way, we have
epiphany, which is the Eastern form of the next word. Prophecy can be defined as knowing back, or moving the future into the past. We also know
forward from the same knowing back. Knowing again is to remember what we already knew.
Peripeteia is a word used to describe sudden realization. This is the Western (Gentile) version that allows the East to see what is hidden.
Epiphany is the Eastern word used to show the West. Like a mirror, you simply need to define the words. It is a situation reversal. When Peripeteia
comes for Israel, it will be due to jealousy. When Epiphany comes for the Gentiles, it is when they realize that Yahweh is the Son of God with flaws.
It will be the sudden realization that Yahweh was not holy, but his end state was. This is the movement for all of us in the story from beginning to
end.
Epiphany - "the manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles as represented by the Magi (Matthew 2:1–12)" WIKI
Pathos is the calamity. It is the sudden destruction that comes from the actions of the characters. Sympathy and empathy are all reflected
concern. Apathy is selfish refusal to see the others pain, or the absence of suffering for others. This is the prime mistake that reveals a lack of
love on the part of the characters.
It is here that we have the secret to the whole Creation. Either we see others in ourselves, or we miss the entire point of the Mimesis (repeated
image).
Look back at the gods of old and what do you see?
Know theyself. You now know the end of the mysteries and what is coming for all of us in the near future. What is your sudden realization? Act on
it by simply loving others.
All of the mysteries, both past and present, are locked into this one culminating truth. God is Love. He is the target we aim for:
Tav is the plowman's mark. It marks the furrow we plow. The ox pulls the cart as the wheel turns.
