### 37. The Eleventh and Twelfth Commandments

1st tablet: the law of manas  


> ♈︎ I am the Lord your God  
> ♉︎ You shall not make for yourself a graven image  
> ♋︎ You shall not take the name of the Lord in vain  
> ♌︎ Six days you shall labor, but on the seventh day you shall rest  
> ♍︎ Honor your father and mother  
> ♓︎ is the law of the lower man  
> ♊︎ is the law of the higher man

The law of the lower man was written on a stone tablet.

The law of the higher man was written in the heart. (Paul)


The Ten Commandments and the eleventh and twelfth, love, by which the law is abolished. The number \(\pi\) ( ♊︎ \(+\) ♌︎ ) is the transformation into the new commandment, spiritual love, by which the law is overcome. \(\pi =\) Christ. The divided power of love \( \)♓︎. The united power of love \(=\) ♊︎.

1st table: The Law of Kama

> ♎︎ Thou shalt not kill  
> ♏︎ Thou shalt not commit adultery  
> ♐︎ Thou shalt not steal  
> ♑︎ Thou shalt not bear false witness  
> ♒︎ Let not thyself be lustful.
> Five Commandments of the mind (higher nature):
> I ♈︎ I am the Lord, thy God  
> Manas ♉︎ Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image  
> Atma ♋︎ Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain  
> Budhi ♌︎ Six days shalt thou labor, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest; ♍︎ Honor thy father and thy mother: (this includes all the others).
> Father and mother \(=\) mind and soul \(=\) ♍︎ \(=\) P

The Ten Commandments are the law written on tablets of stone; the commandment that includes all others is the one brought by Christ, the commandment of love. The commandments that govern man in his newly acquired independence are the Ten Commandments of Jehovah, which relate to Kama-Manas. Christ gave the commandment of love, which encompasses and abolishes all others. The law of love is on the periphery and encompasses all the others, containing them within itself.

It first manifests as Kama ♓︎ in the physical, where the sexes are separate. Then, through transformation, it manifests as Budhi, as the unified power of love, ♊︎ (\(\pi\)) spiritual love.

This law is written in the heart of man.

♈︎ I am – expresses itself first in ( Kama, works first in ♍︎ (\(7\)), is purified through I (the hands, karma, action), then works in 8 in the heart, Budhi.

> ♌︎ Reproduction of the Budhiman, the united power  
> Reproduction from the number \(\pi\) (spiritual power of love)  
> ♍︎ Reproduction of the Kamic man, the divided power.

The cherub of Ezekiel has a human head on one side and a lion's head on the other (lion = Budhikraft, Christ). The lion is this cherub.

The two cherubim on the Ark of the Covenant hold the wings together; they guard the law, forming a circle around the law with their wings, which Christ later forms.

Christ was born under the sign of the Lamb: I am ♈︎.

Through him, humanity receives the power of God.

This manifests itself first in Kama – outer independence, the sign of Pisces ♓︎.

Then man can progress to inner independence through the power of Budhi. After he has first straightened himself out by the law (♒︎ Aquarius, John - ♈︎ Aries), he is now enabled to free himself through Budhi, to rise above the law.

> The diameter becomes the periphery.  
> Diameter: Law of the Kama man.  
> Periphery: Law of the Budhi man.

♈︎ the Spirit of God at baptism; represents the stage that was reached when the law could be overcome by the ego \(=\) Christ.

♒︎ is the first Atlantean race; man began to develop his independence there; ascending through the seven Atlantean races and five Aryan ones; in the Atlantean era up to Leo ♌︎.

♌︎ Leo is the [fourth] sign from the top, the spiritual ![five-pointed-star16](images/five-pointed-star16.png).

Scorpio is the [fourth] sign from the bottom, the ![five-pointed-star16](images/five-pointed-star16.png). ![91-4-118](images/91-4-118.webp) ![91-4-119](images/91-4-119.webp)

From Scorpio emerged the kamic evolution of the earth, from Leo the spiritual. Leo comes into full power in the fifth sub-race of the sixth root race. There he leads humanity to spiritual perfection. In the fifth root race, he descends from spiritual existence into the physical. The fifth root race does not pass through the sign of Leo; but in the fifth root race he dwells among humanity.

He descends to bring Budhi among mankind, to transmute Kama into Budhi, ♓︎ into ♊︎. But Budhi must arise out of Kama; it rises out of Kama. The lion, the spiritual ![five-pointed-star16](images/five-pointed-star16.png), crushed the serpent's (the law, the zodiac, the kamic ![five-pointed-star16](images/five-pointed-star16.png)) head.

♏︎ The serpent, who is quiescent in the Kamic, stings the lion's heel with her will; she expresses herself in the Kama ♓︎, on which the lion stands and which he transforms into Budhi.

This happens under the sign of Pisces ♓︎, in the fifth sub-race of the fifth root race. In the fourth sub-race, the Lion crushed the head of the serpent; in the fifth, the serpent stabs the Lion in the heel; this is where Christ is truly betrayed; the fifth is the Judas race. In the sixth sub-race the resurrected Christ is proclaimed; in the fifth sub-race of the sixth root race he rises anew in heaven and on earth; then humanity begins to understand the sign of the lion as the sign of him who descended from heaven in the second and fifth root races to infuse all his power into humanity.

In the fifth sub-race of the sixth root race, Christ is present in heaven and on earth at the same time.

In the sixth sub-race of the sixth root race, he brings the separate currents together completely, and in the seventh sub-race they then stand united side by side as the twins ♊︎ – this is the race of Thomas, who is called the Twin. Only then can Thomas recognize the Lord by the five wounds – this is the sign of the Solar-Pitu, the Christ.

Thomas is humanity, which could not fully recognize Christ until He appeared before it with the five signs, as the fifth in the sixth root race. Then the number \(\pi\) is also complete, because x is the sign for the power of the lion in humanity, which enters humanity in the seventh sub-race of the sixth root race. ♊︎ with ♌︎ = \(\pi\). Then humanity is consciously under the guidance of the Cherub with the lion's head, who brought his power into humanity in the second root race, and in the fifth root race overcame the enemy of humanity – killed the dragon.

The fifth does not pass through ♏︎. There the battle took place between ♌︎ and ♏︎. They both do not appear in the sky, but both on earth.

In the sixth root race, the dragon in the sky and the dragon's seed on earth appear as the evil ones, the lion in the sky and the lion's seed as the good ones. In the second sub-race of the sixth root race, the evil ones come to power. In the fifth sub-race of the sixth root race, the Christ comes to power, and the dragon, the snake, the scorpion is completely overcome and its power raised into the spiritual at the end of the development, in the seventh sub-race of the seventh root race. In the seventh root race, the lion lives with all its power in humanity. There it has descended completely from heaven into humanity.
