30
years ago the
theophanies were beginning. From October
2d to November 22,
1977, The Book spoken by the
Creator
himself would come and step up The Gospel Given in Arès,
that I
had
got from a messenger, Jesus, 44 months earlier. It was to win The
Revelation of Arès its
plenitude. Since then what have I most been
reproached for? Publishing that great Message? No. I have been
reproached for adding my thinking to my prophethood.
I've
always received suggestions that I should publish The
Revelation of Arès only bare, bare without any foreword, or
comment, or footnotes, but around the theophanies' 30th anniversary
those
suggestions are growing insistent.
Among the intimaters there are those who usually think that
believing is worthier than understanding. But, had the Father ever
thought that faith was enough, we wouldn't have had that determinative Revelation
of Arès, whose none of the concepts or words is relative or
superfluous.
The Revelation of Arès doesn't address passive people. It
honors
man's intellect and creativity. Why wouldn't it honor the intellect and
creativity of its witness, whom it calls a prophet?
Determinative The Revelation of Arès has to be, if
it's going
to remind people of a cardinal life-saver: Doing (good)
is above
believing.
The real nature of the problem, I think, is that The
Revelation of
Arès's derogators are realizing that they will never
have it disappear, so that they forsake the argument, "That so-called
revelation is just a fraud or an act of folly," and begin using the
argument, "As this book exists, it is nothing but mankind's asset. Each
man has a right to read and understand it freely and not be swayed."
But nobody's been swayed by me. I've just performed my love and clarity
mission. I've not founded any religion or philosophy. I've never
menaced the many people who "don't agree with my pinchbeck book," and
who will be more justified than me, a sinner, if they are good people.
Why ban me from thinking on the pretext that a man who is given a Word
by the Creator would be unable to spell it out? All I do is cut short
the reader's pursuit of truth, because culture has put dark glasses on
his nose. I give him the Light in minutes. Here it is, summarized,
"Man, have a good look! No religion, no politics, no law, no honorable
institution, whatever, has ever triumphed over evil, so that they all
have declared it ineluctable and set it up as their business and
moneymaker. At best, they have made it acceptable, and, at worst, they
have made it even crueller than the old barbarians had. Now, evil and
even death are not invincible. They can disappear when people
sufficient in number, a small remnant, but not only
sparse
exceptions, will grow good, love their
neighbor, forgive
the offenses, make peace, put in absolute freedom
and
regain
spiritual so as to restabilize
intellectual
intelligence." Detractors retort, "That's not news!" I nod in
agreement, "That's not news, indeed. That's the immemorial Word, the
Gospel, that has neverbeen intelligence achieved."
Why never achieved?
Because only what is wanted
can be achieved,
but the dominators have seen to it that grassroot
mankind
would never want it. This would sound mysterious,
if we failed
to get it pretty clear that the true of the Word,
the Word once
well rid of the religious additions, especially The
Revelation of
Arès therefore, is existentialist to the core. Existentialism
stipulates that man is absolutely free to build his existence,
which does not do nicely for the dominators.domination,
even if it is bound to
cut their lives short, just as gamblers would rather die at the card
table than drag themselves away from it. The Revelation
of Arès harshly disputes the validity of all that makes man
believe
that evil, suffering and death be unavoidable and the dominators
be appointed to permit the peoples to enjoy a certain amount of animal,
blind delights in life. Quite the contrary, it says, Truth is
that
the world has to change.
The Revelation
of Arès is quite the opposite to
renunciation of
the effort to change. It urges man to set himself free
and start to climb the sublime Heights.
For all that,
it does not deny anybody the right to make the most of the joys
and delights of life, which some prim persons see
as
inconciliable with spiritual Life. The
Revelation of Arès
praises both life and Life. It reminds that the man
with too
much intellect, but inadequate kindheatedness, has forgotten about the
outstanding capabilities of conscience, notably the freedom of the
intentional, the transcendent and the existential. It reminds us that penitence
is not remorse or sadness, at all, but it is self-re-creation and
self-exaltation, and that a different way of living happy, joyous,
is possible.
