writes of formationthe sefer yetzirah itselfthis text is considered the oldest of the so called Kabbalistic texts. References to it first appear in the first century ce and quotes from the text itself began to appear in other works around the sixth century. It has been variously considered as a mystical, magical, philosophical or grammatical text depending on the particular slant of whoever happened to be writing about it. It never fails to amaze me that people can�t accept the simple fact that it is all of those at the same time. Be that as it may the text itself is quite small. The short version, which this present work is based on, contains a little over 1200 words. Opposite this is the so-called a Long Version of some 2500 words. Somewhere between these two, weighing in at around 1800 words is what is known as the Gra Version, produced in the 18th century and which is the favorite and preferred version of the Jewish Kabbalah. And I make this distinction because the oral traditions the text is documenting would long precede the evolution of the Jewish faith. This fact is alluded to, in the last verse of basically all the versions, by the attribution of these traditions to the name of Abraham. Abraham is now considered to have lived between 2000 and 1500 bce . This would be between 700 - 200 years before the time of the exodus of Moses which is now set at sometime around 1300 bce., which point would mark the begining of the transformation of the Hebrew people into the people of the Jewish faith. However it was not until sometime after 540 bce that they adopted the babylonian alef-ber now known as hebrew. And it is the mystical grammar of this alef-bet which is the basis for the Sefer Yetzirah. Abraham is said to have been born in Ur of the Chaldees. Chaldea was the 'then' name for the culture which was earlier referred to as Sumeria. Regarding that culture's relationship with 'esoterica', referencing Chaldea at the Encarta website produces topics focusing on palmistry, oracles, divination [chiromancy] and astrology. In particular they credit Chaldea as the birthplace of western astrology in the year 3000 bce. This then would be the knowledge base of traditions from out of which the Book of Formation arose.

The manuscript designated as London 1902 is the source i used for this projeck Published by Menasheh Grossberg on the basis of Oxford Manuscript 2250:2. Known as the Short Version, this version is attributed to Avusel Donash ben Tamim who wrote it in arabic in 955 ce in Kairwan Tunisia. In it Donash transcribed the version of the Sefer he had memorized and included commentaries on it based on the teachings of his master, R. Yitzchak Israeli. Donash�s work is considered to be one of the first three commentaries to be written on the text and the most reliable rendering of the short version of the source text itself. Once this was translated into hebrew it became the

4

dominant version, appearing in manuscripts and collections of mystical writings over the following 1000 years.

providenceIf that last number gives pause, consider that the oral traditions eventually codified into a teaching under the name Sefer Yetzirah would have originated in Sumeria circa 5-3000 bce. From there they would have been taken up by the Babylonian culture from whence they passed into the judaic world after their return from their exile in Babylonian c. 540 bce. This line of transmission can be considered without question given the fact that before the return the then �proto-jews� were not even using the alef-bet which is the basis of the text.This line of transmission also accounts for the similarities between these aspects of �Jewish� Qabalha and Arabic Sufism.

In translations which are based on the long version [the best example of which was produced by Aryeh Kaplan in his book Sefer Yetzirah � the Book of Creation in Theory and Practice, Samuel Weiser Inc., 1990] the majority of the text is devoted to an exposition of the various manifestations held to correspond to the 22 letters of the �Hebrew� alef-bet. And I put the word Hebrew in quotes because, while originating as the esoteric heiroglyphs of the Sumerian culture, these 22 letters became the exoteric alef-bet of the Babylonian culture. And it was from them, during their time of exile [circa X-Y bce] that the Jews were first introduced to it. Following their return from their exile they eventually proceeded to translate their various scriptures using these letters, so once again they became an esoteric / holy alef-bet. And as these scriptures became known as the sacred books of the �Hebrews�, that led to the alef-bet they were written in being identified as �Hebrew� as well. The relationship here is that the teachings which are inherent in the texts pre-date any notion of the Jewish mysticism which later developed around them. It has long been accepted that western astrology has its roots in the Babylonian culture, and much of what is included in the sefer yetzirah is based on a sort of mystical astrology of the heavens and the body. The saying �as above, so below� has its roots in this sort of theory and practice. Anyway, here are 2 examples of this sort of material which is predominant in the both the long and gra versions of the source text and which forms the basis for Kaplan�s work.

4.8The letter Bet works through Wisdom to distinguish, arrange and combine one with the other as male with female to form: the moon in the universe, the first cycle of the year and the right eye in the body

5

5.8The letter Lamed works through Coition to distinguish, arrange and combine one with the other as male with female to form: Libra in the universe, [the hebrew month of] Tishrei in the year, and the gall bladder in the body

Note that these are my translations, and just to give some idea of my style versus the orthodox Jewish mystical style, here is Kaplan�s translation of 4.8

4.8He made the letter Bet king over Wisdom and He bound a crown to it and He combined one with another. And with them He formed The Moon in the Universe, Sunday in the Year, the Right Eye in the Soul male and female

One thing I just do have to say at this point is that at the time that these teachings were first in practise there was NO notion of the pre-emminant �HE� type god of the Jews. Anyway. After having produced four translations of the Sefer Yetzirah I was inspired to provide a version which refines what i believe to be the most basic teachings inherent in the text dealing with personal spiritual development.

the sapphire naturean essential edit of the text known as the The Book of Formation

Beginning late in 2000 I began working on this series of translations of The Book for this release as a Cdplus. The finished piece includes four textual translations; exoteric, esoteric, metaphorical, allegorical versions - and a fifth �symbolic� version which will be rendered through sound.

The four textual versions are based on a source text that was first published in London in 1902. It is a �Hebrew� version of an Arabic original written in Tunisia in 955 ce by Donash ibn Tamim. I chose this version because I felt it was informed by the purest strain of its traditions; that is the mysticism shared by both Sufism and what is now known as Qabalha. This would be in contradistinction to versions that are more wholly informed by what can be called a particularly �Jewish� mysticism. Anyway. Deep in the process of this piece I was inspired to render what I consider to be an �essential� version of the text and which would be the basis for the symbolic/sonic version. It is entitled The Sapphire Nature, which is also a variant translation of the words normally translated as Book of Formation.The Book of Formation [or The Book] is perhaps the most influential mystical text arising in the Middle East between the years 1500 to 500 bce. That is; from the Abrahamic period [the transition of cultural dominance from Sumer to Babylon] to the return of the Hebrews from their exile in Babylon and their adoption of the Babylonian ale-bet. From that somewhat nebulous point of origin its authority was guaranteed by its influence upon the various mystic schools of Alexandrine Egypt; Al-Khemic, Hermetic, Neo-Platonic/Pythagorean etc. [100 bce � 500 ce] through the time of the occult renaissance in Italy where its tenets underscored the works of Marsilio Ficinio [1433-99] and Pico della Mirandola [1463-94] through Giordano Bruno [1548-1600] upon which most �modern� occultism is based.

In particular these tenets included the notion of the �magical alphabet� and the �doctrine of correspondence� upon which their sympathetic magics were based. The Book also includes a ritual which must be considered the original template for the �pentagram ritual� which has been adapted by so many various occult schools. Anyway. It is noteworthy that the actual salient of the entire body of teachings in the traditional texts and commentaries is quite conspicuous by its absence. And that salient is what is now commonly known as The Tree of Life.

7

The Tree of Life is a glyph composed of 10 spheres connected by 22 lines and is the basis for pretty much all of the rites and rituals in current western �magical� traditions. Anyway.

The following text consists of 4 chapters of 4 verses each. The first chapter lays out the basic elements of this system � it identifies the 1o spheres of consciousness with the well known glyph of the �Tree of Life� [which is missing in any version of the text I have ever seen] and links this with what I feel is one of the most crucial lines in the whole of the Book of Genesis. It then goes on to delineate the way in which the 22 letters/numbers are grouped. The second chapter includes the invocational ritual and describes two of the most important ways of manipulating the letters/numbers. These methods, and others, are dealt with intensively throughout Rhythmajik. The third chapter is a series of Al-Khemikal/elemental tantric meditations including both yantric and mantric details. The fourth chapter describes three meditations: the first of which includes a sort of koan. The following two include specific verses; the first is obviously related to �the vision of Ezekiel� and the second to what can be considered as either a heavenly hierarchy or the elemental orders. Note that I include the numbers of both the letters and what verses are quoted. Following the text there are a short series of notes explaining some of the points raised in verses 1.1, 1,4, 2.2, 2.4 and 4.3.

Transliteration values of letters with numerical value: A=1, B=2, G=3, D=4, H=5, V=6, Z=7, Ch=8, T=9, Y=1o, K=2o, L=3o, M=4o, N=5o, S=6o, O=7o P=8o, Tz=9o, Q=1oo, R=2oo, Sh=3oo, Th=4oo

the sapphire naturean essential edit of the sefer yetzirah

�the pursuit of the Ways transmutes one�s will unto a sapphire nature� traditional[typically translated as:�the study of the law breaks one�s will be it as hard as sapphire�]

1.1down 32 hidden paths does wisdom flow with the power to empower the will to an understanding of the 3 swords; form and proportion and pronunciation �keeping the way of the Tree of Life� [genesis 3.24]:1o spheres of consciousness which are the secret foundation of the 22 signs comprising: 3 elementals bringing forth 7 dyadic complements and 12 archetypes [keeping > 3o,3oo,4o,2oo � the > 1,4oo � way > 4,2oo,2o � tree > 7o,9o � of life > 5,8,1o,1o,4o]1.23 elementals; A,M,Sh [1, 4o, 3oo] flow through spirit and water and fire � from the heavens flows the seed of fire - the earth flows from water � and space, which flows from spirit, balances their strengths

1.37 dyadic complements; B,G,D K,P,R,Th [2, 3, 4, 2o, 8o, 2oo, 4oo] embrace them, dream them, refine them, envision them and associate their names with the inner planets in our solar system, the days of creation and the gates to the body: 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 nostrils and the mouth --- for through the 7 are ordained: 7 firmaments and 7 earths and 7 cycles and 7 veils � just so is 7 the lucky number

1.412 archetypes; H,V Z,Ch T,Y L,N S,O Tz,Q [5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 1o, 3o, 5o, 6o, 7o, 9o, 1oo] embrace, refine, dream, consider, permute, envision and develop them through the 12: constellations, months of the year and nodes of the soul and you know the constellations and you know the months and know then that these are the nodes; the 5 senses and the 7 chakras now! behold these manifestations of Mother Nature illumine the secret balance

2.122 signs; embrace, dream, consider, permutate and envision them, for through their transformations are developed the essence of all that has been formed as well as all their future forms

2.2in what manner consider them and transpose them?

9

envision them; join A with each one � and each one with A -- B with each one � and each one with B � and on and on through all 22 and what results are the 484 roots of which everything in nature and every thought in mind is but an emanation of this united name

2.3in what manner permute them? envision them; 2 stones build 2 houses, 3 stones build 6 houses, 4 stones build 24 houses, 5 stones build 12o houses, 6 stones build 72o houses and 7 stones build 5o4o houses � and from that point on the calculations are beyond what the mouth can speak and the ear can hear [note: there are 4o32o permutations of 8 �stones�]

2.4�the setting of the sun� envision the great name, permutations of 3 symbols from out the 12 archetypes invoke the west � face straight ahead and envision and intone H,V,Y [5,6,1o] invoke the east � turn to face backward and envision and intone H,Y,V [5,1o,6] invoke the south � turn to face the left and envision and intone V,Y,H [6,1o,5] invoke the north � turn to face the right and envision and intone V,H,Y [6,5,1o] invoke the heights � turn your face upward and envision and intone Y,H,V [1o,5,6] invoke the depths � turn your face downward and envision and intone Y,V,H [1o,6,5] now! envision and conceive the crown of 22 jewels, and behold -- the tree of life and unto you will be revealed their potencies � withdrawn through water, illumined with fire and vibrating through spirit

3.1the 3 elementals; A,M,Sh [1,4o,3oo] � comprise a mystical secret sealed within their 6 permutations � their emanations are fire, water and spirit � fire from above, water below, with spirit as the balance between them and a sign of this is that fire evaporates water -- and a sign of this is that M murmurs, Sh sibilates and the Aspirations of spirit mediates between them now! refine and balance them within your male and female aspects

3.2as A rules spirit; strengthen this connection and refine one with another and join them � the male with A,M,Sh / the female with A,Sh,M - to space in nature, the ecstatic dimension and the body for the soul

3.3as Sh rules fire; strengthen this connection and refine one with another and join them � the male with Sh,A,M / the female with Sh,M,A � with the galaxies in nature, the dilations of time and the source of the soul

10

3.4as M rules water; strengthen this connection and refine one with another and join them � the male with M,A,Sh / the female with M,Sh,A � to earth in nature, the cycles of karma and the fertile fluxions of the soul

4.11o spheres of consciousness envision them as thundering lightning envision their end enfolded in their beginning and their beginning in their end, like a flame enfolds a coal -- their ground is a union which reflects a duality within itself --- reflect upon the measures of your soul and meditate upon this teaching... before 1 what is there to count?

4.21o spheres of consciousness envision your heart in meditations binding your receptivity to revelation and let this be a meditation, �the holy creatures running and returning� [ezekial 1.14.] [the holy creatures > 5,8,1o,6,4oo � running > 2oo,9o,6,1 � and returning > 6,3oo.6,2]

4.3before the 4 quarters join fire to breath like waves upon the sea - then embrace, dream and envision the path to the throne of the orders of; the ophanim, seraphim, holy creatures and prophetic messages and to establish this nexus with love let this be your meditation: �the teachers act through spirit infused with glistening fire� [psalm 1o4.4] [act > 7o,3oo,5 � teachers > 4o,3o,1,2o,1o,6 � spirit > 2oo,6,8,6,4oo � infused >4o,3oo,2oo,4oo,1o,6 � fire > 1,3oo � glistening > 3o,5,9]

4.4now! behold the inner counsel influencing the all bringing about the 3 bringing about the 7 bringing about the 12 and the all of them are bound up in your unbounded revelation

notes: 1.1The �3 swords�: form, proportion, pronunciation can be considered as tantra, yantra, and mantra ie, the physical, the visual, the sonic. 1.4The identification of the 12 nodes of the soul with the 5 senses and 7 chakras is unique to this version. 2.2This method of generating 484 unique �bi-lateral� combinations is the basis for the Book of Roots which lies at the heart of Rhythmajik. In the Book of Roots the semantic equivalents

11

of 446 of these 2 numbered combinations are delineated which can allow one, when these number patterns are used as BEAT patterns to, as the saying goes; �drum what you mean�. 2.4There are many differences between this ritual and the common �pentagram� ritual: this one begins facing the West, which direction corresponds to the element Water relating this ritual to the traditions regarding the �crossing of the waters�. As to the choice of letter/numbers, I think a particular set of correspondences would be instructive here [especially if this verse is considered as a preparation for the series of rites described in chapter three]: 5 = consecration, 6 = the eternal, 1o = initiation. With regard to its instruction to �intone� these three letters: We enter here into that concept known as the �Word of Power�. The bottom line of all traditions stemming from The Book in this regard is that when one is working with a letter, they must combine that letter with all 5 vowels. If one is interested in following this line of thought then, one would take the guttural H, the labial V and the Palatal Y and run them through their various a � e � i � o � u pronunciations. This would produce 750 unique versions of the 6 permutations of H V Y which make up this ritual. But please note that this is a �simple� number in that it does not take into account the combining of long and short vowels � if this is included the number greatly expands If one explored all of these one would also find which pronunciations �spoke� to them, and thus answer the question �well...how does one pronounce these letters?�. The technique of premutation mentioned in 2.3 is applied to arrive at these 750 pronunciations. Just to get you started if you would want to go down this path: Beginning with the combination H V Y: Ha Va Ya Ha Ve Ya Ha Vi Ya Ha Vo Ya Ha Vu Ya Ha Va Ye Ha Ve Ye Ha Vi Ye Ha Vo Ye Ha Vu Ye Ha Va Yi Ha Ve Yi Ha Vi Yi Ha Vo Yi Ha Vu Yi Ha Va Yo Ha Ve Yo Ha Vi Yo Ha Vo Yo Ha Vu Yo Ha Va Yu Ha Ve Yu Ha Vi Yu Ha Vo Yu Ha Vu Yu Repeat this with the other 4 vowels following H and then repeat the whole process for the other 5 permutations of H V Y 4.3As elemental orders: the ophanim = water, seraphim = fire, prophetic messages = air holy creatures = earth.

circling round the limits

of thought

four translations of the sefer yetzirah

traditional � esotericmetaphorical - allegorical

13

traditional version: mysterious movements & spheres of nothingness

1.1Through 32 mysterious movements of wisdom does yah, the lord of hosts, engrave 3 books; through text, through number, and through communication

1.21o spheres of nothingness; encompassing 22 letters: 3 mothers, 7 dualities and 12 elements

1.31o spheres of nothingness; the same as the 1o fingers, five and five, with a single covenant exactly in the middle within the circumcision of the tongue and the circumcision of the membrum

1.41o spheres of nothingness; 1o and not 9, 1o and not 11 --- understand through wisdom, and be wise through understanding -- probe them and examine them, cause things to reveal their essence, and return the creator to his throne

1.51o spheres of nothingness; their measure is 1o which has no end but measures of beginning, end, good, evil, above, below, east, west, north and south this singular master, god the faithful king, from his holy dwelling dominates them all from eternity to eternity

1.61o spheres of nothingness; a specter of the appearance of lighting and their limits are without end --- his word in them is �running and returning� [ezekial 1:14] they rush to his words like a whirlwind and prostrate themselves before his throne

1.71o spheres of nothingness whose end is imbedded in their beginning as their beginning is in their end, as a flame to a burning coal --- for the master is 1, he has no second.. and before 1 what is there to count?

1.81o spheres of nothingness; restrain your mouth from speech and your heart from thought and if your heart races, return it to its place as it is written �the chayot running and returning� [ezekial 1:14] and regarding this a covenant was made

14

1.91o spheres of nothingness; 1 � and only 1 is the breath, blessed and sanctified, of their living god and the name of life through the worlds of voice and breath and speech, for his is a holy breath

1.1o2 � breath of breath; and with it 22 foundation letters are engraved and carved; 3 mothers, 7 dualities, and 12 elements; and 1 breath is within them

1.113 � water of breath; and with it chaos and void, mire and clay are engraved and carved - engraved like a garden bed, carved like a wall, and covered with a ceiling

1.124 � fire of water; the throne of glory, the seraphim, ophanim & holy chayot and the ministering angels are engraved and carved � for from these 3 his dwelling is established, as it is written, �he makes his angels from breath, his ministers from flaming fire� [psalm 1o4.4]

1.135 � with 3 of the singles, Y,H,V; �above� is bidden for 3 are demarcated to designate his great name which bounden these 6 boundries 6 � to bid �below� � turn to face downward and sign it with Y,V,H 7 � to bid the �east� � turn to face straight ahead and sign it with H,Y,V 8 � to bid the �west� � turn to face backward and sign it with H,V,Y 9 � to bid the �south� � turn to face the right and sign it with V,Y,H 1o � to bid the �north� � turn to face the left and sign it with V,H,Y

1.14for these are the 1o sefirot of nothingness 1 is the breath of the living god and his measures of breath, water, fire, up, down, east, west, north and south

2.122 are the foundation letters; 3 mothers, 7 dualities and 12 elements AMSh are the mothers and their foundation turns the face of merit to the face of liability with the tongue of judgement deciding between them

2.222 letters; with them engrave, hew, weigh, permute, transform and depict the essence of all that has been formed as well as all their future forms

15

2.322 letters; A,Ch,HO - B,V,M,P - G,Y,K,Q - D,T,L,N,Th - Z,S,Sh,R,Tz: placed 5 places in the mouth and engraved with voice and hewn with breath

2.422 letters; their foundation is set in a circle with 231 gates rotating forward and back � and the mark of this is permutation - for in goodness there is nothing higher than delight [ONG] and in evil there is nothing lower than plague [NGO]

2.5how so? factor and transpose them � A with all others and all others with A -- B with all others and all others with B � repeating and recycling therefore everything of form and everything in speech is an emanation of this united name

2.6from out chaos is substance formed as from the nonexistent is existence made � so from out air that can�t be grasped great pillars you will hew and the mark of this is � with the 1 name one envisions, permutates and makes all words and all that is created � and the mark of this is 22 objects in 1 body

3.1the 3 mothers; A,M,Sh; they are established in the face of responsibility and the face of virtue with the tongue of judgement deciding between them

3.2the 3 mothers; A,M,Sh; are a great mystical and hidden secret sealed with 6 locks fire and water emanate from them � as male and female they separate out and their foundation is A,M,Sh; the 3 mothers who bear the 3 fathers and thus creation proceeds

3.3the 3 mothers; A,M,Sh; are air, water and fire in the universe heaven was created from fire, earth from water, and air mediates between them

3.4the 3 mothers; A,M,Sh; are heat, cold and breath in the year fire creates heat, water creates cold, and the temperate breath mediates between them the 3 mothers; A,M,Sh; are the head, kishkes and chest in the body fire creates the head, water the kishkes, and the chest mediates between them

3.5the 3 mothers; A,M,Sh; engrave, hew and permutate them male and female and seal with them as 3 mothers in the year, 3 mothers in nature and 3 mothers in the body

16

3.6take Alef to rule over breath and commit a crown to it to combine it 1 to another to seal air in the universe, the temperate in the year and the chest in the body, sealing the female with A,Sh,M and with A,M,Sh seal the male

3.7take Shin to rule over fire and commit a crown to it to combine it 1 to another to seal heaven in the universe, heat in the year and the head in the body, sealing the female with Sh,M,A and with Sh,A,M seal the male

3.8take Mem to rule over water and commit a crown to it to combine it 1 to another to seal earth in the universe, cold in the year, and the kishkes in the body, sealing the female with M,Sh,A and with M,A,Sh seal the male

4.1the 7 dualities; B,G,D K,P,R,T; they are established in life, peace, learning, wealth, fructification, beauty and dominance soft and hard / strong and weak; they each have two sounds; B-Bh, G-Gh, D-Dh, K-Kh, P-Ph, T-Th the pairs are paired because they commute � commuting life & death, peace & confusion, learning & ignorance, wealth & poverty, beauty & ugliness, fructification & desolation and dominance & subjugation

4.2the 7 dualities; B,G,D K,P,R,T; correspond to 7 boundries; the boundries of existence, these sanctified boundries of existence are united in one plan of nature throughout these boundries. 2 is the boundry above, 3 is the boundry below, 4 is the boundry of the east, 5 is the boundry of the west, 6 is the boundry of the north, 7 is the boundry of the south and there is yet a holy palace which sustains them throughout eternity

4.3the 7 dualities; B,G,D K,P,R,T; engrave, hew and combine them --- for they correspond to planets in the universe, days in the year and gates to life --- for from them are assigned 7 firmaments and earths and the 7 sabbaths � beloved therefore is 7 under heaven

4.4how does one permute them? 2 stones build 2 houses, 3 stones build 6 houses, and so on so, 7 stones build 5o4o houses, beyond that calculate what the mouth cannot speak and the ear cannot hear

17

4.5these are the planets; saturn, jupiter, mars, sun, venus, mercury, moon and these correspond to periods in the year and the six days of creation and the sabbath � and these are the 7 gates of the body; 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 nostrils and the mouth and through the 7 are ordained 7 firmaments, earths, days and years beloved therefore is 7 of all the intentions under heaven

5.112 elements; H,V Z,Ch T,Y L,N S,O Tz,Q they are established in hearing, sight, smell, speech, coition, taste, action, motion, anger, laughter, thought and sleep they measure 12 diagonal boundries: east-north, east-south, east-above, east-below north-above, north-below west-south, west-north, west-above, west-below south-above, south-below they spread and extend forever and ever and they are the principles of the universe

5.212 elements; H,V Z,Ch T,Y L,N S,O Tz,Q engrave, refine, hew, weigh, permute and depict with them the 12 constellations, months of the year and modes of the body and these are the constellations; aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, libra, scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius and pisces and these are the months; nissan, iyar, sivan, tamuz, av, elul, tishrei, mar-cheshvan, kislev, tevet, shevat and adar and these are the modes; 2 hands, 2 feet, 2 kidneys, spleen, liver, gall bladder, intestines, pancreas and stomach they are prepared by the master and arranged as tribute gathered for the deeds of the aelohiem

5.33 mothers, 7 dualities and 12 elements these are the 22 letters which establish the sanctified signs dwelling in eternity and turning round the holy name

6.13 causes and their effects; 7 planets and their hosts and 12 diagonal boundries faithful witnesses their appearance brings to mind the universe, year and life established through the 1o, the 7 and the 12 and appointed through the teli, cycle and heart the 3; fire, water and wind � fire from above, water below, with wind as the balance between them and the mark of this is that fire elevates water

18

M hums, S hisses with air embracing the balance between them

6.2in the universe the teli is like a ruler on the throne in the universe the cycles are like a ruler�s jurisdictions in the body the heart is like a ruler in battle as it is written; �also every desire, one opposite the other was made by god� [eccl.7:14] good opposite evil � good from good and evil from evil the good distinguishes the evil and the evil distinguishes the good good is reserved for the good and evil is secured for the evil

6.3the 3; each one stands alone the 7 are divided; 3 facing 3 with 1 balanced between them the 12 stand arrayed; 3 with love, 3 with hate, 3 with life, 3 with death the 3 with love; the heart, ears and mouth the 3 with hate; the liver, gall bladder and tongue and god the unmanifest is yet the faithful ruler over 1 over the principle of 3 3 over the principle of 7 7 over the principle of 12 and all of them are bound as this to that in manifestation

6.4and our father abraham foresaw and he looked, examined, discerned, identified, hewed, refined, and turned about the forms revealed by the blessed master of all who restored 7 kisses upon his head establishing with him the covenant of descent and the faith that is consecrated by the oaths of the covenant between the 1o fingers of his hand and the 1o toes of his feet � the covenant of the fingers is the covenant of the tongue and unto him was joined the crown of 22 jewels to his tongue -- and unto him was revealed their foundations - drawn through water, burned with fire, swirled through breath to enkindle the 7 planets and direct the 12 constellations in peace [1958]

esoteric version: hidden paths & states of consciousness

1.1down 32 hidden paths does wisdom flow with the power to empower the will understanding the 3 spheres of form and proportion and pronunciation

1.21o states of consciousness connected by 22 letters 3 are the elementals bringing forth 7 dyadic complements and 12 archtypes

1.31o states of consciousness combined like the 1o fingers -- 5 opposite 5 encircling the life force as the 1 determines the center as the tongue answers to the mouth

1.41o states of consciousness -- 1o and not 9, 1o and not 11 -- cultivate your learning with wisdom and knowledge -- distinguish and ascertain with them and understand the thoughts producing the arrangements of manifestation and restore creation to its place in heaven

1.51o states of consciousness -- their measure though 1o is yet without limit -- encompassing the beginning - the end - the good - the evil - above � below - the east - the west - the south - the north -- their one principle is a treasure of faithful guidance a truth within all, a sustenance sanctified forever and ever

1.61o states of consciousness -- their appearance appears as thundering lightning with no end nor limitation -- and the word in them is �running and returning� [ezekial 1:14] and their arrangement hastens the restoration of these spheres of thought so immerse yourself within their hidden dominions

1.71o states of consciousness their end is enfolded in their beginning and their beginning in their end like a flame enfolds a coal their ground is one which reflects a duality within itself -- and before this mystery what interpretation comes to bear

1.81o states of consciousness enwrap your heart in the fullness of your meditation -- enwrap your speech in its capacity for communion -- cling to your thoughts and embrace the substance of your desires and it is written: �The chayot running and returning� [ezekial 1:14] and a covenant was sealed regarding this

20

1.91o states of consciousness 1; the breath of divine life is blessed and sanctified and consigns signs of life upon nature, voice, breath and speech; these are the holy dispositions

1.1o2; weave breath with spirit to engrave and shape and establish 22 letters 3 elementals, 7 dyadic complements and 12 archtypes and one breath enwraps them

1.113; release water from breath to delimit and decree desolation and disorder into mud and clay -- then hollow out from them a foundation -- form stones to shape the walls and mix a plaster for a ceiling [note: this relates to the “building of houses” alluded to in 4.4]

1.124; join fire and breath from water - then engrave and carve the path to the throne of the orders of; the ophanim, seraphim, holy creatures and ministering angels and establish this nexus with loving care -- as it is written: �he makes his angels from breath his ministers from flaming fire� [Psalm 1o4.4]

1.13consequentially then � the great name �jehu� is drawn from 3 single symbols from out the 12 archtypes 5 - to invoke �above� � turn your face upward and seal it with Y,H,V 6 � to invoke �below� � turn your face downward and seal it with Y,V,H 7 � to invoke the �east� � turn your face straight ahead and seal it with H,Y,V 8 � to invoke the �west� � turn your face backward and seal it with H,V,Y 9 � to invoke the �south� � turn your face to the right and seal it with V,Y,H 1o � to invoke the �north� � turn your face to the left and seal it with V,H,Y

1.14behold the 1o states of consciousness -- powers of the spirit, breath, water and fire powers of above and below and east, west, north and south

2.222 foundation letters; engrave them, hew them, weigh them, permutate them and transform them and through them depict the life of all creation and the essence of all future forms

21

2.322 letters; engraved with voice, hewn with breath and fixed in the mouth in 5 groups � A,H,Ch,O [gutturals], B,V,M,P [labials], G,Y,K,Q [palatals], Z,S,Tz,R,Sh [dentals] andD,T,L,N,Th [linguals]

2.422 foundation letters; fix them in a circle as 231 gates � this circle rotates forward and backward �- and this is the sign; there occurs no mercy above pleasure and there is no pleasure without touch

2.5in what manner appraise them and transpose them? A joined with each one � and each one with A -- B with each one � and each one with B � and the result are the 484 gates from which everything in nature and every thought in mind emanates from out this unity of creation

2.6form substance from chaos from out the spheres of potential shape distinctions and designations that elude apprehension and these are the signs to believe in to foresee, transpose and go to the end of all that the complete name can bring to mind when the 22 letters are united as 1

3.1the 3 elementals; A,M,Sh � they are established in the balance of judgement and the balance of obligation with the expression of their laws resolving between them

3.2the 3 elementals; A,M,Sh � praising a mystical secret sealed within 6 natures emanating fire, water and air � refined male and female -- the 3 mothers; AMSh are their basis and from them the fathers proceed � and all creation follows

3.3the 3 elementals; A,M,Sh flowing, the nature of air and water and fire -- from water flows the seed of fire -- the earth flows from water �- and space, which flows from air, balances their strengths

3.4the 3 elementals; A,M,Sh � heat, cold and invigoration in the year the heat escapes from fire, cold from water and invigoration, a sign of integration, balances the energies of the 3 elementals A,M,Sh in the brain, digestion and lungs � for fiery is the brain, liquid the digestion with the both of them dependent on the rhythm of the lungs

22

3.5the 3 elementals; A,M,Sh � inscribe them, shape them, refine them and male and female seal with them their 3 realities in the universe, seal with them their 3 realities in the aeons, and seal with them their 3 realities in the body female and male

4.17 dyadic complements; B,G,D K,P,R,Th � they establish existence, serenity, wisdom, prosperity, conception, grace and ascendancy � they are instituted through 2 pronunciations; soft and hard / strong and weak and these complements are transposed; the transpose of existence is unnamable, of serenity - agitation, of wisdom � predjudice, of prosperity - parsimony, of conception � sterility, of grace - vulgarity , of ascendancy � materiality

4.27 dyadic complements; B,G,D K,P,R,Th � drawn from out the 7 measures � these are heavenly measures � they are the sacred heavens; and the heaven of creation measure 1 � 2 is the measure of above � 3 is the measure of below � 4 measures east � 5 measures west � 6 measures south - 7 measures north � and the holy palace which occupies their center is the sustanence of the all of nature

4.37 dyadic complements; B,G,D K,P,R,Th � engrave them, hew them, try them, and associate their names with the inner planets in our solar system, the days in the week and the gates to the body --- for these complements emanate 7 qualities of firmament and earth and 7 eons -- therefore embrace their 7 names throughout the heavens

23

4.4and what is permutation? 2 stones build 2 houses, 3 stones build 6 houses, 4 stones build 24 houses, 5 stones build 12o houses, 6 stones build 72o houses and 7 stones build 5o4o houses � and from that point on the calculations are beyond what the mouth can speak and the ear can hear

[note: there are 4o32o permutations of 8 �stones�]

4.5the inner planets; sun, moon, mars, mercury, jupiter, venus and saturn establish the pattern for the days of the week � the 6 days of the week and the sabbath the 7 gates of the soul; 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 nostrils and the mouth so behold their ordinations are as; 7 firmaments, 7 earths, 7 generations and 7 eons therefore honor 7 and its harmonies throughout the heavens

5.112 archtypes; H,V Z,Ch T,Y L,N S,O Tz,Q they establish; listening, vision, deep memory, language, carnality, digestion, desire, gesticulation, delight, mentation, dream they span 12 diagonal measures; east-north, east-south, east-above, east-below north-above, north-below west-south, west-north, west-above, west-below south-above, south-below these patterns extend for ever and ever for they are the wellsprings of nature

5.212 archtypes; H,V Z,Ch T,Y L,N S,O Tz,Q -- delimit them, try them, transpose them, consider them, form them and draw them into; 12 constellations � 12 months in the year � 12 expressions in the body the constellations; aires, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, libra, scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, pisces the months; nissan, iyar, sivan, tamuz, av, elul, tishrei, mar-cheshvan, kislev, tevet, shevat, adar the expressions; 2 hands, 2 feet, 2 kidneys, stomach, liver, intestines, gall bladder, pancreas and spleen these manifestations of mother nature maintain a hidden balance through the will of the aelohiem

24

6.1behold there are 3 roots propagating through; the 7 planets and 12 siderealities and their phases convoking their evidence and proof in the universe, the year and the body their observances 1o; 7 and 3 - their decrees 12 fixed in the teli, cycle and heart the 3; fire, water and breath � fire from above, water below with air drawing the balance between them -- and a sign of this is that fire evaporates water and a sign of this is that M murmurs, Sh sibilates and respiration mediates between them

6.2the teli in the universe presides over exaltation --- the cycle in the universe presides over guidance --- the heart in the body presides over opposites --- as it is written: �also every desire, one opposite the other, was made by the aelohiem� [eccl. 7:14] positive versus negative � proliferation from the positive and stagnation from the negative the positive clarifies the negative as the negative clarifies the positive � proliferation flows from the positive while stagnation flows from the negative

6.3the 3; each one endures the proportions of 7; 3 parallel 3 - determining the unity between them 12 are contraries; 3 sympathies, 3 antipathies, 3 allot life, 3 decree death 3 sympathies; the heart, ears and mouth �- 3 antipathies; the liver, gall bladder and tongue behold the inner counsel influencing all as the 1 brings about the 3 bringing about the 7 bringing about the 12 and the all of them are bound up in their unbounded revelation

6.4and abraham the father was inspired and observed, probed, discerned, identified, fashioned, refined, and meditated on the forms to mediate, and elevate the revelation of the principle mind � the understanding connecting the natural state drawing down the blessing confirmed unto him in oaths distributed between the 1o fingers of his hands and the 1o toes of his feet � oaths he discerned through the language uniting his concentration to the crown with 22 gems � the language revealing to him the principles of realization; withdrawn through water, illumined with fire and vibrating through the air � to distill the 7 practices through 12 influences

allegorical version: strange and puzzling and stranger ways

note: when 2 verses 'run' together, the first word of this 'additional' verse in the 'composite' verse is underlined [for example see 1.3 and 1.4 below]

1.1our awareness opens simultaneously upon her and her strange and puzzling and stranger ways. which of her 3 ways do we follow? do we: lift up our eyes? draw circles? make music?

1.2to those 10 on high and those below she makes 22 signs with her hand in consideration of the 3 ancient traditions, 7 products of the earth and 12 variant versions of one verse

1.3 and 1.4are there but 10 garments suited to her body? who asks 10 questions has asked well, yes? with a phrase she says: raise your 5 fingers, and a line of honey flows over both her arms. indeed, these are the very 5 words she offered: strength in thy soft flesh � and hark, a breeze whispers - and it is done � through soft speech, she renders 10 ecstatic secrets; 10 bent, 9 tied down, 10 drawn out in 11 turns. this text might have been drawn off her body, no? this occurs to one in dreams, no? or, yes, is it envisioned in questions? this question? who decorates her body with charms, kneaded with honey?

1.5 and 1.6before the light of 10 lights she measures 10 mnemonical signs; double expressions let loosened her tongue flickers all over your body - stroking fear and striking terror through the eternities that you may dream drawing, with 10 oily fingers, the lightning bolting formulae which asks of you; is this possible? will you offer to her your secrets? will she warm her hands before their fire? and will she draw with oils all over your body? for nothing, is nothing forbidden her? no, nothing?

1.7between 10 mountains she plays with carved clubs, on wood and stones from where the blood will flow extinguishing the flames of the sun. for incandescent is her name and she has tied the knot which knows not, no not but one form revealed within her

1.8and between the 10 mnemonical signs earth and heaven sing, and their voice is sweet within you in the grave and so sweetly willing you from out the friction of her fingers to let your bloods mix and congeal with the flesh covering her words. so and is this why the text says, as it is written?

33

1.9there are 10 acts to be mentioned, and they bind her in a union and they resolve her in a dream. and some say these acts, these perfumed words glowing with wisdom, are her names. so speculate on it. for flesh and blood are her passions inscribed on the voice of revelation

1.1othrough her 2 lips is breath conceived giving birth to 22 wise sayings drawn to her voice from out chaos. let�s listen then to what this reveals: �the 3 on high and the 7 below� sung on the 1 wind stretching forth in 12 directions

1.11so she puts 3 drops of oil looking like pearls in her mouth as the great daemon � the son of mud - ordains the movements of her tongue weaving 3 threads into a triangle

1.12 and .134 entered into speculation: what is really revealed by �as it is written�? the hall of secrets? salamanders flaming? the spine turning into a serpent? the new moon outlined like a crown? 3 enter into speculation: what blows hotter than the 5 demonic manes enkindling her presence? behold, 3 plus 3 tremulous notes skriegh out her 6 gates that never close behold, 6 daemons draw down her willing embrace behold, 7 times 7 serpents sunk in sleep give heat without flame behold, 8 ecstatic exercises bind the body to body behold, 9 drops of blood are asked of you too behold, 10 knots spell out the desires spreading over her body to your right and to your left in a series of binding oaths

1.14behold her 10th apprentice receives these sorceries of the aelohiem: the knots been tied and the chains of tradition and the scattering clouds and the shedding blood and the perfumed words and the steps leading down and the perfect light and the circles inscribed and the evil inclination and the barren knowledge

2.122 desires empower 3 transforms, 7 tongues, and 12 serpents through 3 dreams; aery, fiery and liquid. what does this mean? are her words predictions? better watch all her movements

2.2she makes 22 signs with her hand to tie up the spirit in the body smelted through trials. and here the text calls the soul blood and there the spirit breath. behold this change of names redeems her sensual, her selfish love

34

2.3she has drawn 22 points out her mouth separately and simultaneously in the 5 worlds. and their sweet voices leap before her and loosen the knots of her garments fluttering down through the soft silken veils of your mind

2.422 desires in the palm of her hand - their mimicking motions bring about their 231 allusions to the vehement wind which falls upon false teachings. so let your left hand and her right hand hammer away the hammering. and this refers to the drums, then! so come and see! and a serpent came

2.5how so? in deliriums she draws duality within herself as to her one sound it is synchronous with all sounds simultaneously passing from hand to hand her hands envolute as the serpentine songs sung through the voice of revelation issuing forth as her memory, unbound and offering up a heart made whole

2.6behold on the cross-road she moves sideways walking in the dark in the darkness where there�s no substance no, nor prophecy � but apparitions yes, which she, the earth, preserves. but let the blind one then say; �this be like this� - and so and lo and behold a skull floats on the water and 22 bodies abound; one, on top, of the other

3.1 and 3.23 dreams can occur when the sun and moon share the sky. what does this mean? perhaps these dreams dream face to face because they forge howling voices howling between these 3 extremes: aery, liquid and fiery secrets revealed and concealed. does this then intimate that the text speaks of 6 male and female temptations in which obscure passage? come and see! mother nature looks down from below these 3 elements evolving 3 twisted inclinations

3.33 vocalizations; aery, liquid and fiery are distinctly defined. therefore when the text says: �aery spirits of insanity will enter one eye and exit the other�, come and see! you can literally translate this as a lie

3.43 prayers prayed for like a beast of prey interpret these verses; �you have eaten of her heart, come, and scent it like a dog�, �leave the drunken one alone, they will swallow the serpent� and �divining from saliva? when it, the knife, gets warm, lick it�s length� behold these 3 verses are a savor sweet to her soul, cleansing to your body, and a healing to all wounds

35

3.53 feelings induce the words of the twisted spirits song forcing the mouth open through trials complete in the male completely female. come and see! these feelings bespeak the mistress of those desires both female and male.

3.6recite �alef� before her in verses close to the skin. listen! come and receive the songs which the ancients recited containing the serpentine words. risen as a daemoness she sings invocations of the male with �alef-mem-shin� and the female with �alef-shin-mem�.

3.7recite �shin� before her desires twisting in slumber. does her name rise up in circles as oil on water? come and receive the ringing sounds heard in the words: �and no more�. behold she scatters them on the ground, the female with �shin-mem-alef� and the male with �shin-alef-mem�.

3.8recite �mem� before her distilled like the rain in the chants of the smitten waters. come and receive her showering rain drops glistening blessings and cleansings weaving �mem-shin-alef� through the female and �mem-alef-shin� through the male.

4.1behold the 7 verbal teachings: whose is the sound of crackling thorns? who is the deviant stranger? whose mind is confused? whose numerical value is symbolic? whose fire goes forth? whose path do you follow? to the Daemon Queen what do you say? come and see! the mother of wisdom bends over a cupful of witchcraft - she stretches 2 fingers forth like the tongue of the serpent - awake or asleep in your dreams and can you read this and not feel something more strange than that there are yet 14 symbols to be unwound here?

4.2behold 7 products of the earth, are they not sung from out 7 graves? behold the dark mountains, are they not called by the name qadosh? behold her intentions, are they not called forth by names rash, sharp and torn? behold her gates, do they not open in an eastern direction? behold the myrtle branch, does she not shake it out at twilight? behold, does she not stand between life and death? behold, do earth�s 6 sacred characters not strengthen the 7 powers in her hands; the one of fire the other of ice, one wrapped within an other metaphoric intention of nature.

36

4.3behold 7 doorways through which her light escapes illuminating 7 evil eyes, 7 venomous serpents and 7 plutonian prophesies. like the shadow of a shadow, like the scintillations in the universe, like her bloodied garments in this world. behold, ought this better not to read; �nothing is forbidden�?

4.4these verbal teachings, products of the earth, and doorways metamorphosizing: 2 ashes in the mother�s eyes - 3 turns to the right inferring 6 winding serpents � 7 corpses which shall rise through 5040 reverberating sounds � behold she silences the daemons with the expression: �the stone has ears�.

4.5behold the scintillating ambits descending cagily, cannily, cunningly, craftily, slyly, wilely and subtlely envisioning their fatidic ranks. behold the 7 winds with which she calls forth: 2 serpents, 2 sepulchral chambers, sleep and slumber, and all the dead buried within her. behold the 7 steps on journeys down the 7 deeps to embrace those 7th things besmeared with heaven�s blood.

5.112 words of her mouth evoke the work of the chariot establishing: her stillness, your appearance, her eidolons, your whispers, her curses, your labor, her miracles, your manifestations, her vibrations, your illumination, her heated imagination, your bewildering strangeness. behold her 12 proportions, qualifications, destinations, fascinations, solar legends, twisted inclinations, mighty deeds, lives and deaths, trembling eyes, ministering daemons, hovering doves and sacrificial altars. proof of proofs that hers are the flashing forces of nature.

5.2and to this day these are the 12 influences she attaches to the masters and mistresses of desire and their twined: fictions, recognitions, ornaments, astronomical calculations, compositions, arrangements, cross-roads, gravitational forces, serpentine movements, incantations, acroamata and serpentine skins. behold these are yours and yours are these 12 charms she�s drawing figures like writing stranger still on your questing skin and after that to your body intertwined one with one another, the first and the last balancing the serpent and the scorpion this way and that way. what direction would you two be circling in, raising smoke and perfumed oils and tied together 2 by 2? behold their art and craft placed side by side her crafty artfulness enervating the sounds she produces through and throughout the above to influence her aelohiem

37

5.33 persausions, 7 doorways and 12 revolutions name the 22 fates we read through her signatures spelling out �nothing in nature is forbidden� in your world.

6.13 twisted inclinations and their 7 orders of accession: 12 esoteric doctrines, count them! according to the language of the night she�ll say to you: �disappear and appear� � life to life � as your spirit escapes the limits of the 10 spheres; the lower 7 and the upper 3 rising in the 12 zodiacal spheres through which they are drawn. behold her 3 charms fire, water and air � mixed in the chants with abstract sounds, the mem like the subsiding winds, the skrilling shin �deep to deep her extremes embrace

6.2she opens the doors from weird to mane as the cloud called destroyer whispers �roll away the stone� and embraces the night ascending through the messengers of flesh and bone beheld in your hands reconciling such opposites prepared by her aelohiem spinning in your dreams. come and see! such opposites offer themselves willingly by spinning the drum, stroked by the skald in this land of death and thunder ascending through charms to share in the delight of her watchers below the waters.

6.33 strangers face the dawning of 7 soft tones, 3 enfolding 3 within 1 invocation. behold the 12 glamours wafting out the smithy on the wings of: 3 meditations, 3 intentions, 3 enervations, 3 imprecations 3 meditations transform the hidden sword of substance 3 intentions charm the spellbound partners in sacrifice behold the assonance of her lamentations enkindling the flames attending her union with 2 bodies is 3 � 3 intentions entrance 7 archei � 7 archei arise through the 12 substances dreaming of the golem the all of them cleaving body to body like lightening to thunder

6.4and when in her being, these great sound issue from the countenances greater and lesser - misty and dark � letting the ape out blazing a trail where blood can flow freely as an offering burnt to desire to be desired as a flash in a flash of the thundering of vavohu, then!her 7 kisses descend one after the other like promises as there is no dream without pleasure, then! so there is no dream without understanding the 10 devotions of her hands in your hands as 10 persuasions reflect 10 simultaneities. so there is no dream which is not adorned by one of the 22 oscillations of her tongue harmonizing the secret natures of her name united in your transformation illumined and a�fire as heaven and earth tremble � as spirit and soul awaken � as her 7 intimations maintain the 12 fatidic ranks both above and below

TranslationInterview

The following interview [first published in the

retrospective of my workfrom 1969-1990 entitledOne Foot In The Grave]

explains the process I use in rendering the versions of the

various translations.

39

Translation InterviewConversation between Jon Wozencroft and Z'ev, 5 Sept l988, London

Why did you start doing translation work? What is the connection, if any, between this and the musical and performance work you were doing as Z'EV or uns?

It had to do with the "central point" from which all the work originates. I had started writing in 1963, and in 1973 I began doing a lot of things with 'transmutation' and 'permutation', very formal systems applied to language; transmutation: ABC/DEF, A=D, B=E, C=F; permutation: ABC, ACB, BCA, BAC, CAB, CBA. These are meaningful in the context of a hieroglyphic language, but I was using the Roman alphabet and while it was intriguing to me, it had no apparent meaning to anyone else. Never-theless, I sensed that something was there.

I was also writing out of dictionaries: I had a self-pronouncing dictionary that I was given when I graduated from Elementary school, and at some point I chose that to be my work and experience pool, developing formal systems to access that information - writing poems from it. I would come up with a phrase or word such as "book token"; I would then pick a word beginning with the letters b-o-o-k-t-o-k-e-n, and generate sentences. Then I'd edit them, working up various versions of the generated sentences. That work slowly developed into the "contexts" - context is defined as the weaving together of language, so I took this literally, cutting up the text and weaving visual works.

This was the jump from the "Burroughsian" to a "Gysinian" process (so to speak): the desire to get the materials of communication to reveal their hidden truths, a popular concern at that time. There were a few shows of these visual works, but soon music would take up most of my time.

6 years passed, and I got in-volved with qabalhistic studies - so I began to deal with a hieroglyphic alphabet rather than a symbolic one, and all of a sudden I discovered that transmutation and permutation are ancient systems of meditation and of mind concentration - a discipline but also an exegesis with which to call meanings from the hieroglyphs. I could jump immediately into it.

It was as if I'd already done the homework. I had already developed the mental muscles, so you could say that this was a giant coincidence, though obviously not a coinci-dence.

40

Once again I was writing with dictionaries, looking up the meanings that came from the permutations and transmutations.

However, the story of how I came to write again in 1985 is extremely occult, meaning obscured and veiled. I don't think it's necessary to get into all the nitty gritty - suffice to say that at the end of 1984 in San Francisco, I began to do translations of liturgical texts - initially Tibetan texts, where I would start with the transliteration of the Sanskrit (how it's pronounced); I would take this, and because the Babylonian/Hebrew characters from the Old Testament are phonetic, I would then transliterate the Sanskrit into the Babylonian characters. When I did this, it always matched - when checked against the English.

What dictlonarles were you using In thls process?

A dictionary called The Sepher Malim, the life-work of someone called Mordicai Jastrow who lived in Philadelphia at the end of the 1800s. He worked for 50 years on it. It's a dictionary that's half Aramaic and half biblical Hebrew, with a large cross section of Greek transliterations. It's not a dictionary of the bible, but of the oral literatures and commentaries on biblical texts. The rabbis used to sit around and discuss what such and such a verse meant, and there would be various schools of interpretation.

It wasn't until the Christian/Roman axis came along that there were fixed meanings ascribed to the Old Testament, when they translated it into Greek. Actually, it was the Jewish community in Greece that did this, but they were the community that most of the Christians came out of: Paul's letter to the Thessalonians etc. The point is, there are two inter-locking systems - a consonantal system and a vowel system; so say you have three consonants, F K and T, there are 9 vowel 'points', so they could be pronounced 'fukata', 'fikoti', 'feketi' etc., each giving different qualities of meaning.

Now, the biblical texts were set, but the Hebrew scrolls that documented them don't include vowel points. These were memorised. So various schools then arose - Jesus had his school, and would interpret the bible by giving the words to a particular phrase different pronounciations, changing the meaning by doing so. The same text could become something completely different. The rabbis used to sit around and talk about the various interpretations and decide which ones were canonical and which ones were heretical. These conversations became what is known as oral literature (Mishna, Talmud, etc). There's a whole written literature of the transcriptions of all these conversations that go back to about 100 B.C. up to about 500 A.D.

41

This dictionary that I use refers to that literature and not the biblical literature, which is like a fixed deck. If you use a biblical dictionary, the only sound/word that you're going to get will be the same as what you will find in the Bible itself.

If you use Jastrow�s dictionary, however, there might be 5, 6, or 7 different versions that come out of one word group. Different pronounciations. So you just figure it out. The number of meanings that can be drawn from one sentence can be pretty large. This has always intrigued me, so for a variety of reasons, in 1985, I decided that I was going to do a translation of The Song of Songs.

The first one I did I wasn't really thrilled with, but by the second one I was really into it and I realised the magic of this system - how complex and subtle it was. The intellects that used to exist back then! People who could not only memorise a vast body of literature, but memorise its different versions. It makes computers puny; and they didn't need printing when they had such incredible memories.

In the context of all the other things I'm doing, I'm very interested in memory. These stories (groups of hieroglyphs) are like repositories of memory, and like a matrix. The combinations of letters literally form a code. They have specific potentials for memory. And when you're translating, it is like you are remembering the story - complete with visuals and the whole thing.

It's as if a voice were talking to you, this whole receptor/receiver process, the interlocking disciplines all coalesce. You're listening, "skipping" around, then all of a sudden you pick up this signal that you follow. The thread you pick up weaves a story � you check the dictionary, and lo and behold that word is there, this word is there and that word is there. The letters point themselves before your eyes. To make a demonstration of this, I decided to do 3 translations, all different, but all consistent in their flow. They don't jump context from verse to verse.

If you look at the canonical translations, they jump all over the place and include words that are redundant in their definition - they have no meaning beyond the fact that they appear in The Song of Songs. Like 'the Shulamite' is this "character" - but they have no idea whether it's a person, a place or a thing, animal/vegetable/mineral. They just say 'the Shulamite'. It could be a flower for all they know... "They" being the canonical authorities of the last 400 years. Definitions just reference 'the Shulamite'.

Another thing that complicates the issue is that there are no spacings in very traditional scripturessincethelettersjust allrunintooneanother. Which means you can break them up in any way you want. The only thing that need influence your choice of breaks is whether or not you're getting semantic mat-erial out of it or not.

42

It's much like computer hacking - tracing a current, following the flow of this massive amount of information, holding hundreds of combinations before your mind's eye before making a selection.

And because you're dealing with these memories, you also start getting into the time travel aspect of it, following this voice as it becomes louder and louder, clearer and closer, until you reach the actual time and see the events taking place. You're there, witnessing the story. It's incredible. So the translations also function as a form of travel. They're stories out of time � no different to a Grimm fairy-tale. They deal with these archetypal images.

One of the stories, Verse from out of the Cauldron, tells of the "mythical"/archtypal time when women were developing magic, and how that came about.

Songs of the Jackal is basically a book of the dead - it has a lot of similarities to The Egyptian / Tibetan Books of the Dead, witness the jackal, who you follow down into the hall of judgement, and when I reached the end of Songs of the Jackal I found that it didn't actually have an ending - which I couldn't understand, seeing as the translation was going so well; it took me a while to realise that I had to loop it back to the beginning for the last sentence to make sense. A cyclical thing: and every time you re-read it, you go through another bardo, to use a word from the Tibetan.

The Scales of Formation is basically a description of the cult of the snake that existed in the Middle East and the fertility ritual that took place under the dark of the moon after the Spring equinox - the night of the snake, very similar to the maypole ritual where everybody would run out into the fields in the dark and freely procreate to spread the gene pool. It's also like a tantric manual for the fertility cult, both the outer and the inner. This story is so dense, describing all the rituals; I could see the mystery school that all the kids would go into, and I saw the dormitories where they stayed, where they ate, and so on.

But what use is this?

Information. It's a bit like being an ethnomusicologist - you go out into the field and you find this music that exists, you document it in the best way possible, and bring it back so that other people can share it; as in Formations where it says "the flowing of pure movement is memory, the reproduction of an image of an action in another phase of manifestation..."

So you have these tracks - everyone who ever lived who ever had a story - it's

43

there. It's a conglomerate, a specific point, potentials, these points in space between the so-called prophetic texts (The Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, Matthew, etc.) which exist on parallel realities, as if they were radio stations playing the blood music (as Greg Bear extrapolates so well in the book of the same name). They might tell the same news, but with different slants - or even completely different reference points. They're just like centres, nodes where consciousness is made avail-able. You go to the door, you knock, it opens up and you keep walking. You listen, looking for the signal to pick up, then you might have to backtrack.

The voices don't come immediately, and again it's like hacking - you have to work. You might be up for a week solid without sleep to get all the way through a story; and at the time, that's no great hardship because time stops.

You just follow your senses to the sense which is there to be found.
