As
a Bantu saying goes, "My
friend is not dead, as I
am alive," I can
correspondingly say, "My
forebears, my brothers
and sisters in humanity
are not dead, because I
have been a penitent
to get a soul,
be made a God (Rev
of Arès 2/13)
and, if I rekindle
my soul = my image
and likeness of
the Creator, I will
succeed in saving them,
saving the world
(28/7)."
The intellect is
indiscriminately named soul,
or mind, or spirit by
rationalists, because
they see it as one and
the same brain function.
The mind admittedly
partakes of the
intellect; it is an
invisible tool of the flesh
just as an
electroma-gnetic wave is
an invisible tool of the
radio, but the soul
partakes of
absolute Life (Rev
of Arès 24/5), a
premise of which it is
from this world's days
onwards.
It
turns out that for the
time being I mortify
myself (Rev of Arès
33/34) for three
persons lately deceased:
nefew Philippe, sister
Andrée, sister Chantal,
but others join us by
night when I pray with
them, because there are
infinitely more
disembodied people than
embodied ones in the
space, and even I do not
mention angles!
I cannot see or feel the souls,
which are
weightless, immeasurable,
intangible, invisible,
inaudible, abstract.
Energies? Consciences?
Plain qualities? The three
of them they are probably.
They are as mysterious,
real and present as the
Wholly Other or life most
certainly. Like Him, or
like it, they are
everywhere, over there in
the infinity or right next
to my shoulder. In other
words I know almost
nothing about them.
In a human being, as long
as the heart beats, the soul
exists in a man or
woman, that has made it
for himself or herself (Rev
of Arès 17/3), just
as art exists in the
artist. You cannot tell a
clear white man (Rev
of Arès xvii/12),
that has a soul,
from the artist, that has
art, whenever you pass him
or her in the street.
However, a soul
always arises out of Good,
that deifies and eternizes
the creature, whereas an
artistic work arises out
of the mind,
even a genius's
masterpiece is at best
felicitous and may
sometimes generates evil.
Good is
not necessarily the
outcome of the mind's
production. The overlap
between the mind
and the soul has
arisen out of the fact
that men have forgotten to
tell them apart.
Men need souls
to make Life
just as they need artists
to make Art.
The soul is
invisible but as real as
strength or gravitation
and it results from the
work of Good or
from Good achieved.
Among a lot of features
there exists an especially
noteworthy feature throuch
which The Revelation
of Arès removes us
from religion and sends us
back to the genetic
spiritual life, which
makes us proceed from Life
again. This feature
is the soul, but
man has to want it, grow
and develop it; working on
oneself to create one's soul
is called penitence
in The Revelation of
Arès.
Just as every Arès Pilgrim
knows and every ripe
corn ear or
potential Arès Pilgrim
presumes, to be a penitent
means to live up to love,forgiveness,peace,
and to reason with
intelligence
spiritual and utterly free
from fear and prejudices.
To
be penitent enables
anybody to create a soul
for himself and so doing
not only find salvation
on death day, but also
become a co-creator
together with the
Creator. Indeed we can change
the world (Rev of Arès
28/7).
Jesus called the soul
the soul in
1974. The Father called it
the ha en 1977.
The h is silent;
I added it to save readers
from mixing up ha
with the English
indefinite article a
(and a = has and à = at or
to in French).
My soul or ha,
when I die,will
be the sail
thanks to which I will
join the Heavenly
Fleet (Rev of Arès
17/4). Should I
fail to become a good
man or a penitent,
so I should be deprived of
a soul, I would
be but a specter
roaming through the
frozen darkness and be
more miserable than the
blind worms in the
depths of necropoles
(Rev of Arès 16/15,
4/7), that is,
nothing but a
corpse rotting in a
graveyard. But if I have
got a soul, it will
survvive and I will turn
into a scrap of the global
Sanctity, Might and
Light (Rev of Arès
12/4), an element
of the Creator's Power.
What is the soul as
a substance? I do not know
it any more than I know
what substance God is made
of. But as true as God
exists, the soul
exists. My soul
is my reciprocity in Good
just as I am the
reciprocity of God in the
world — Genesis
1/26-27 states that
I am the image and
likeness of the
Creator.
What little I know about
my soul I know
only through The
Revelationof
Arès : My soul has not
been brought forth by my
mother's womb (Rev of
Arès 17/3) ; it is
the produce of the Good
that I have
achieved
(31/6) by penitence
(30/11).
There is no word for soul
in the Bible. The Hebrew
word nefeš (= throat) is
usually translated by soul,
but actually means breath,
vital force, (human or
animal) life, live being,
even person at times. When
bound to a personal
pronoun nefeš means I,
you, he, etc. Nefeš is a
vital element, but not an
immortal one. From
the Gospels nefeš is
translated by Greek ψυχή
(psyche) with either a
biologic sense or the
meaning of life surviving
death and prone to be
rewarded or punished. The
notion of immortal soul
is very crude in the
Bible.
The Quran, for its part,
mentions three kinds of
soul : The soul as the
instigator of evil
(ammâra), the soul that is
forvever reproaching
itself (lawwâma), the soul
appeased and back to God,
contented and approved
(Mutma'inna, Sura "The
Dawn" 89/27-28). The gap
is less wide between the
Quran's and The
Revelation of Arès's
soul, but they are
not the same, yet
I would rather not dwell
on the concepts of the
soul in other religions,
notably in the Far East.
There you are, I have just
said all I know about the
soul. That is not
much, but that is
reliable, as I have got it
from the Father. Which is
not what the authors that
deal with the soul
say. I have just read
"About the soul" by
François Cheng. I have
been very pleased to read
the handsomely written
book. But what new has it
told me ? Nothing. With
much talented culture the
book relates all that
thinkers have thought of
the soul ever since
antiquity: Leozi, the Tao,
Buddha Shakamyuni, Plato,
Aristotes, Maimonides,
Pascal, religions, Simone
Weil among many. I have
seen what I had seen
already, that is, that no
thinker or religion has
considered the soul
as the result from the Good
achieved by the
human being that owns it.
Only The Revelation
of Arès reminds
mankind of this
fundamental.
All men on earth have
forgotten what the soul
is; it is an entity that
any human who has
stopped sinning (Rev of
Arès 30/11) knowingly
or unknowingly adds to his
or her native entities,
which are the flesh
and the mind. So
does the incomplete man
becomes complete (17/7).
It should be noted that
even unbelievers may be
haunted by remorse
torments. Every day news
says that atheists
themselves brood over
historical abominations of
mankind: wars,
persecutions, slavery,
colonialism, imperialism,
fascism, communism,
injustice, exploitation of
man by man, destruction of
nature, terrorism. They
clearly can see a
continuity of horrors in
parallel to good deeds.
Unbelievers maintain their
own feelings of remorse as
well as urgency procedures
against evil when it comes
up from anywhere else,
just as in days of
old the fire guards
looked after the fire,
which might be of use to
cook the food or heat the
house as well as cause
disastrous arsons. Why do
unbelievers forget about
the very plain fact that
it would only take a
specific education of
children gainst evil to
recreate the world in love,peace,freedom,
good-hearted intelligence,
in other words to have a
lot of souls coming
to life? Why do they
forget that men have
undoubtedly give birth to
barbarians, freaks and
finally specters
roaming throughout the
frozen darkness (Rev of
Arès 16/15), but
they also have deep down
kept the means to change
life into bliss?
It is very strange that we
nowadays are living
through a situation of
one-sided repentance, the
one that the rationalistic
side requires, the side of
those who cloak themselves
in reason so that they may
more convincingly claim
that we are just dreamers,
cranks, even though we
pursue the same objective
as theirs. that is,
conquering Evil, only by
ways different from
theirs, that is, not by
the law, only by personal
efforts to be good, in
other words by the soul
each one makes for himself
or herself through penitence?
Therefore, the soul
is not the least issue of
a tragical contradiction.
Unvelievers laugh, because
the soul cannot
be seen under a
microscope? But can the mind,
ot remorse, or untruthfulness,
or love be seen
under it? No, it can't. Remorse
(Rev of Arès 8/5),
for instance, is nothing
but the triumph of the
spirit of surrender in the
face of History, which
unbelievers think is
inevitable. We shout to
them, No! History is not
inevitable! We have to
beat it and then start all
over again, begin another
way of life. The Arès
Pilgrims along with all of
the good men,
the men of the coming
time (30/13) are
not people repenting of
sins, but penitents,
human beings with a soul,
the best weapon againt
evil and death.
Good can
triumph over Evil and it
draws its Power
from the soul
or ha. When a
combination of the Word
achieved (Rév d'Arès
35/6) — Let your
Sanctity prevail over
us ! (12/4) — and
the Will of penitence
— so that we do Your
Will (12/4) — is
fulfilled, the soul
or ha is born,
added to the force that
is building up the
future myriad of souls
or has, which
will some day send the
Evil Beast dying
below the horizon
(22/14). Religion
has nothing to do with
that. Just live
according to the Sermon
on the Mount,
which has not founded
any religion, and you
will make a volcano
(L/6)
of triumphant Good active
again. Eden is not a
fertile soil Garden
(xxviii/21) with
trees of wood and
flowers of flesh, but Life,
that will conquer the Universe,
the blooming of
the happy Whole.
What can we see in the
modern man ? We usually
see the thinking animal,
that used to sleep on
the shadows (Rev of Arès
vii/2). But let's
bear in mind that he is Adam's
son, the offspring of
a race (25/4,
xii/5) deified by
the Creation.
What the Maker changed the
animal into a lamp
(Matthew 5/15, 6/22)
with, a lamp
that could produce the Light
(12/4), be His Image
and Likeness(Genesis
1/26)? With the
soul, of course!
The soul is God
within man. God asks us to
rekindle the soul
within us, because we
possess a part of Himself,
and because we share the Life
He lavished on us when we
piece ourselves together
again, Life
which is no more than life
in the mortal flesh,
nothing bit the shadow of
Life. Then an
infinite Bliss
follows on from it, the
Father's Bliss
along with our bliss,
which are as One
(xxiv/1).The
Revelation of Arès's
Vigil 17 is fundamental on
this point. Mankind en
masse is empty wheat
(xxvi/8). The good
wheat (xx/19) has
become scarce, it is the ripe
ears, those that
can get a soul.
But a soul is
stronger than a thousand
minds and fleshes
without souls.
Our mission has forever
been striving to find the
penitents who
are going to save the
world.
The Revelation of Arès
does not establish any
religion ; it asks man to
think himself as another man.
Man, don't think yourself as a
subject of princes of
religious religion or
political religion
or money religion,
etc.
Flee from those dominators
and spoilers (27/9) by
penitence (change
your way of life) (30/11). You
can climb the Heights
of Good by a lot of
paths (25/4-5),
between which you are free
(10/10) to choose the
one you want to follow.
Isn't that just like what
gives you an impression of
uncertainty, you man forever
expecting accurate rules and
detailed instructions!
But all that is formalistic,
itemized, situational in the
Scripture is just man's
word or book (16/12, 35/12),
which is alienating,
simplistic, against love and
mercy.
Man, just have the certainty
of uncertainty! Uncertainty
lets you have a large space of
freedom, it is a strong
liberator and the great
booster towards the good change
of the world (28/7).
Seven billion human beings as
it is! Civilisation has to change.
On March 18th
the pack of the Bordeaux young
missionaries formed a ring round
me at L'Eau Forte's, on Montbazon
street. We were talking about
points of apostolate, when a scandalisé*
(Rev of Arès 28/3-4) came
in from the street. I asked him to
sit down. Straightway he lambasted
me. I listened to the objector
attentively in a brotherly way,
for I saw him as a skeptical
mocking Frenchman, the type our
mission meets in the street every
day. As an inverted Candide of
sorts, after spouting sarcasms,
which we forgave him readily, he
gave us the opportunity to go
about points of The
Revelation of Arès, that we
had seldom talked of, notably
uncertainty as the basis of the
Arès Word. At some point one of
the young brothers asked in
substance, "Have we to realize all
that The Revelation of Arès says
literally ?"
I replied, "Haven't you noted that
The Revelation of Arès
doesn't specify anything that you
have to realize literally? You
never find in it whatever the
Bible calls the law — The Ten
Words (Decalogue), Thora,
etc. — The Word of Arès makes us
see suddenly and clearly that the
law is just made of men's
initiatives (Rev of Arès
16/12,35/12).The
Revelation of Arès is a
pure Word from the Creator, which
tells only a direction, that is,
you have mainly to change
your life, be a penitent (31/11)
incidentally mortify for the
deceased (33/34), pray on
the spouses (33/22). But
how to do so ? It doesn't tell. It
asks the prophet to
decide upon it with moderation
(12/1)."
I added, "This is one of the hard
problems against which I came up
for months after Jesus had
appeared and spoken to me. In the
end I decided that I would remain
under Jésus's teaching,
because the one the Father had
sent out to me had been Jesus. So
I started recommending that the Sermon
on the Mount would be the
basis of penitence. But
uncertainty = latitude. The
uncertainty in which the Word of
Arès has wanted to steep its
listeners arrays the indications
it gives in undoubted suppleness.
Supposing you had been a Buddhist
before you became an Arès Pilgrim,
you could suit Bouddha's sutras to
your penitence. The
Father gets us out of religions.
He makes the manner of praying
relative, He does not impose a path
to anyone on his or her way to Good,
He says paths in
the plural (Rev of Arès
25/5-6). He makes us free
(10/10) believers."
Faith does not make anyone shut
onneself off from the world or
internalize the Creator, which
mystics amon other people think
they have to do. Faith instead
makes people expend their thought
of hope based on Good,
outspread (xLii/13)
on the huge space of spiritual
freedom, that The Revelation
of Arès has opened up in
front of us (10/10).
This is not something easy to
account for to people in the
street, because they culturally
consider faith as dogmas and
rules, but never as free
action. An Arès Pilgrim thinks
himself or herself in a quite
different manner, he or she has
understood that God — the
Indescribable One Who will
describe that little — comes and
integrate with him or her; the
image and likeness (Genesis
1/26) forms in him or her
again.; he or she goes back to the
Whole, to Life (24/5)
which stretches from God to him or
her.
What
the world calls Order, that a
lot of human beings call for, is
just illusory: The world is
wars, rivalries, quarrels,
conflicts of interests, etc. The
well-ordered world will not be a
world of Order, but a world of Love.
Then, we aim at thinking the
relationship between the creature
and the Creator in a quite
different way. The penitent
strives for the One Being : Be
one within you ! (Rev of Arès
xxiv/1). An Arès Pilgrim
claims to be spreading his or her
self within God. That is what
rishi Sandilyia said, "Deep down I
am the global Being," so that he
went beyond hinduism, achieved the
global Truth, that men can find
ine The Revelation of Arès, and
any Word of very high
nature. The global Being is
necessarily a loving
Being.
Evangelist John's Christ is just
the Word that became flesh
(John 1/14), but the Christ
according to Master Eckart is
different, he is eternally
begotten in the soul,
which makes him closer to The
Revelation of Arès's Spirit.
A Word in direct
connection with any man that gets
it firmly rooted in his mind.
Christian theologians have made
Jesus God incarnate, but in
reality love, forgiveness,
the fact of refraining from
judging (Matthew 7/1,
Rev of Arès 36/16), which
make a penitent whoever
God incarnate, a Christ
whoever he may be. A penitent
whoever is Me born to Jésus
born to Mary (that is, the
Creator's maternal phase,
32/2). In his "Essay on
Indifference" Lamennais reminded
readers of the Sanskrit names
given to the Supreme Being, God :
Swayambu, Swayambuva, Vishna-Karma
(the Great Laborer), Pradshapati
(Lord of Creation), which he felt
essential because the Sanskrit
langage is our mother tongue, that
we should study as a fundamental
part of comparative linguistics.
Some day Pradshapati had a visit
from Indra (king of the gods) who
came to learn the Self. Indra was
a dunce and expelled twice, but he
ended up learning that "the Self
is a deep dreamless sleep, so the
Self is the immortal universal
Being." Indra said, "Then, O
Pradshapati, no human can tell
about himself : I am or It's me!"
Pradshapati replied, "You are
right." This is why our flesh,
which sin has blinded, can't see
God, can't experience the Whole,
so that it lapses into religion or
unbelief. This is why the only
certainty that we have had to pull
through is only based on the
uncertainty that we may have a soul.Whoever has ears ought to hear
(Matthew 13/9).
However, Pradshapati, Indra,
Bouddha are but names and entities
which introduce realities shared
by all of humans on the Earth. We
teach neither hinduism, nor
buddhism, none of the numberless
religions, but only the simplicity
of love, forgiveness, peace,
spiritual intelligence,
absolute freedom, in
short, penitence. In
other word, we think ourselves
quite otherwise.
* Scandalisé
: Some people have
reproached me for failing to
translate scandalisé into
English by scandalized man,
but there is no English word to
translate scandale in
the sense the Gospels give this
word. As proofs of it, "The
American Bible" published by
Catholic World Press translates scandale
by sin, "The New
American Standard Bible" published
by Tyndale House Publishers
translates it by obstacle, "The
Jerusalem Bible" published by
Darton, Longman & Todd
translates it by stumblig
block. In The
Revelation of Arès's 1995
edition I translated
scandalisé by a
circumlocution: the man whom
the mighty and merchants,
princes and priests, have led to
lose faith and righteousness.
In
1974 the Father's Messenger
suggested that I followed a
certain destiny. I accepted
it dispassionately then.
Forty-three yeats later I
keep on achieving (Rev
of Arès 35/6) it fierily
(xLi/3-10).
I am aging, but the Father
is blowing on my Fire
harder.
My twilight has begun, but
every day I am more ablaze
with the faith and hope I
have gained.
Will my twilight be short or
long? It is no great matter!
Some day my heart will stop
beating and my soul
will take over it and
stretch out towards
the infinite the
Golden thread of the Word
that God has given me, which
my brothers and sisters will
make fast on Earth more and
more securely, while I a prophet
will be stretching it out up
to the far reaches of the
galaxies, in the midst of
which the Father once made
me run (Rev of Arès
vi/1-4).
I will go to Abraham's
bosom. His universal
paternity lies in the space
between his arms. His bosom holds
the limitless Universe where the souls
are forever flying.
Whenever Doctor House, who is an
absolute heathen in a TV series,
says that "there is nothing in the
beyond", he is unaware that he is
perfectly right. The beyond is so
much unthinkable that
nothing can depict it in any
language.
The nothing is the Whole.
There is no such thing as death.
Why would I be afraid to die?
I am just a link of the endless
chain of Life (Rev of Arès
24/5). Before I was born
there had been my long ancestry;
after I am dead, there will be my
long issue. I have no need to be
reincarnated, because there is no
end to Life all. What is
to stop is just my short life, my
blood life, which is not bound to
last long and which is but a tiny
stitch of the infinite Outspread
one: Yahweh, God, Father, Allah,
Brahma, Mazda, the Great Spirit,
the One who has been given lots of
names, because He has no Name. He
is the Life.
"Nothing is lost, nothing is
created, everything is
transformed," said
Lavoisier, who was unaware that he
so quoted the Creator Himself.
Religion has got wrong ideas of
God and death, so millions of
human beings have ended losing
faith in God as well as
afterlife. They are right. After I
had witnessed the Theophanies in
1977 on the one hand, and after I
had during the Theophanies been
flying throughout the Universe (Rev
of Arès vi/1-4)
experiencing my death before time
on the other hand, I have forever
stated that I do not know much
about God and death anymore. God
is not the absolute sovereign king
and judge, as they say, and
afterlife is not a transposition
of earthly happiness (paradise) or
sufferings (hell). God is Life
and Good, so believing
in God is regaining Life (Rev
of Arès 24/5) and Good
(12/3, xxxiii/11, xxxviii/3), of
which each man is a particle
likely to stay alive or freeze
(Rev of Arès2/11,
4/7, 13/4, 16/5, 17/7, 24/1,
28/3, 30/9, 31/12, 33/33), because
frozen is whatever or
whoever cannot Live.
This starts something
indescribable, that no human
language can tell about. The
depiction of the death process in
The Revelation of Arès (xL/12-17)
is just about the days after the
heart has stopped beating. The
Word is silent on what happens
later. Vladimir Jankelevitch said,
"Death is the problem above all
else and even, in a way, it is the
only problem," and he added, "I'll
bring my secret along, if there is
a secret ever, to the grave with
me." I reply to him that there is
nothing secret, there is no
problem then; there is just the
unknown and the inexpressible.
Death is just something else, when
the nothing becomes the Whole.
So I will pass
some day from the nothing to the
Whole. Death is irrevocable as far
as most humans are concerned with
a few extremely rare exceptions: Elijah
that escapes the grave (Rev of Arès
2/10), Jesus risen
(Matthew 28/1/10), who paid
me visits in 1974.
Buddha, who would not elude death,
said, "I have not told you about
existence or non-existence, or
what is neither the former nor the
latter. Why haven't I told you
about that? Because that is not
related to virtue, nor to any
element of the law (that is
to be 28/8), and that does
not tend towards conversion to the
will, the end of desire, the rest,
acquisition of upper abilities,
extreme wisdom, Nirvana." In other
words, that is beyond all
explanatoty descriptive
capabilities of an earthly
language, whatever. The Nirvana is
the purpose of the Buddhist
practice, the Awakening (bodhi),
but as for me I say, It is the
purpose of penitence, it
is Good in the form of
transcendency, Good
beyond man's cerebral conception,
Good in its universal
conception, that which is tangled
up in the Father of the
Univers(al) (Rev of Arès 12/4).
Abraham as the first patriach and
founder of faith in a sole God; he
is the believers' father. Abraham's
bosom is a very fine
picture for a society that sees
itself being a network of kinships
and considers that picture as the
ideal of Salvation (Rev of
Arès 28/25), the final
fulfilment of spiritual
relationship, Abraham himself is
the best example of this primacy.
The spiritual kinship also is the
meeting of the believers of three
religions that claim to have their
roots in Abraham's bosom :
Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
Look at the illustration at the
top : It shows Abraham's global
fatherhood with radical
effectiveness; he stretches out
his arms, so making his own bosom
a warmly open place, and he wears
a good-hearted smile. There is an
equivalence between Salvation
and the reuniting to the Whole, of
which the Father is the universal
center. A similar idea is
represented in the picture of the
apostles James and Andrew.
To me conscienceness is the
essential matter about the
afterlife. Some people happen to
ask me, "You know what death is,
because God made you experience it
(Rev of Arès vi/1-5)." I
reply, "Just the same there is a
great difference between the
afterlife I experienced in 1977,
of which I was conscient in my
living brain, and the afterlife
when I breathe my last, of which I
have no idea I will be conscient
once my brain is dead." When
there's is just the soul
left, I think that one cannot at
all identify the fundamental
nucleus of one's being with one's
situation in the same manner. One
is necessarily facing a quite
different reality. The self is
likely to disappear and be
replaced by a state of
universality. One bursts onto an
altogether different world and the
way one feels the new life is
utterly imperceptible to blood
eyes.
What will I be busy with in the Universe
? As I am a particle of the
Creative Might, I will contribute
to the endless Creation.
January 18, 2017 (0181US)
Confraternity of Economies (second outline)
I know the arguments through
which people praise the so-called progress
that the big national masses are supposed
to be.
But this is very arguable.
Must it be repeated about France,
where The Revelation of Arès has
been delivered, that the 1789 French
revolution has not given their freedom to
the ethnic groups which had been annexed
to the kingdom, that it overthrew?
The republic has appropriated the complete
power over the complete territory, which the
bunch of princes had appropriated (Rev
of Arès 1/7) previously.
That agglomerate as well unjust as
inconsistent, which is becoming more and
more obvious, has been abandoned to the
political power's greed, but in whose name
can we rebel against it today? In The
Revelation of Arès's name, Penitence — that is, love,
forgiveness,peace,
kindhearted intelligence and men's
absolute freedom — that the
Father calls on human beings to practice
can be lived on only in small groups of
men.
How can small sovereign units of men stay
alive in happiness? I have not been much
interested in some 400 micronations, a lot
of which have been short-lived and
unreliable, or in about thirty microstates
(Malta, Andorra, Iceland, Cook Islands,
etc.). I have especially looked into two
patterns of nation, which are very
different from each other. One of both is
quite sovereign as regards religion: Jews
closely joined in the denomination most
free in the world, Judaism with its
"ageless absolutely immemorial
insubmissive nature" (Bernard-Henri Levy),
but not sovereign as regards economy, at
all, and utterly scattered. The other one
is less far from my concept of small
sovereign economy: The small historical
cantons of the Helvtian Confederation or
Swiss, which are sovereign states. It was
possible for me to be over in those
cantons and study them in October 2015
thanks to a couple of Swiss Arès Pilgrims.
The modernity of society is not found in
the large masses. The age-old struggle
against the ideolatry of politics and even
power cannot be carried through
successfully but in small nations, that
the Father says will move back to Him
(Rev of Arès 28/21). Of
course, the small Swiss cantons are not
inhabited with penitents, but
when small penitent economies
will draw their inspiration from those
cantons and be developping, God's Day
(31/8) will not be long coming.
I give the readers of the blog the notes
in full, that I took when I was away on a
trip there. Fifty 14.5x21 cm pages of
notes in my handwriting lacking in text
structuring and filled with repetitions,
which I ask the reader to forgive, but I
think that the notes as such have the
insight of sincerity and of a hard
thinking I continuously did everywhere
around the 4-Cantons Lake. Having said
this, a man my age is aware that it is
always through its own deeds and habits
that the mind meets with the truth and
makes mistakes. Alain said that one has to
"build bridges over abysses" whenever one
has to do the right thinking. So I
filtered my obervations through my own
sieve and I possibly misjudged a few
things. But I have to make a first move.

NOTES TAKEN DURING
MY 2015 TRIP IN THE HISTORICAL SWISS
CANTONS :
Schwytz (in the Confedération ever since
1291) population 146.000
Uri (in the Confedération ever since 1291)
population 35.000
Nidwald (in the Confedération ever since
1291) population 41.000
Obwald (in the Confedération ever since
1291) population 35.000
Lucerne (in the Confedération ever since
1332) population 377.000
Zug (in the Confedération ever since 1352)
population 113.000
Glaris (in the Confedération ever since
1352) population 38.000
All of these cantons are small people
units each of them being a totally
sovereign nation, a part of the Helvetian
Confederation.
I think that a human organization whatever
is only justified if very limited
objectives have been set. Man shall be
absolutely free [Rev of Arès 10/10]
— he has been created for freedom —,
so society cannot guarantee freedom but in
small free restricted units.
Politics like religion is nothing more
than an occupational business. A person is
a minister, a senator or a member of the
parliament just as a person is a bishop, a
rabbi, a priest, a minister, an imam, an
ayatollah, a guru. In reality, if politics
were meant to the right management of
society but no more than that, it should
be operated by anybody, but not by the
initiates or professionals. The fact that
politics or religion are reserved for
initiates gives other people, the
citizens, a right to curiosity. Managing
society should be based only on a few
straightforward rules of common sense, but
it does no go that way any more, because
nations are too large, too much populated,
too much diverse within themselves.
A man, who wants soundly to weigh up the
conditions of his happiness, has to
realize his situation within his society
clearly. He can't possibly do so outside a
small unit of men.
I cannot exercise my right to curiosity,
if I live in a nation too much populated
nation and consequently too complex or
even too much complicated. Some men and
women have been aware of this a long time,
so they have to reduce the settlements
they live in to small people units. .Which
seems to be the canton's Swiss people's
situation... (you can read on in

Confraternity of Economies (first outline)
Happiness
is thought to be inattainable like the sun.
The sun is inattainable, because all that comes
up to it would be burnt out.
Everything except Good, which
is no matter but quality Good cannot be burnt.
Through Good man can start a new world
made of small confraternal units, so he can
achieve happiness.
What does economy mean in
Confraternity of Economies? It is neither
economists' economy, nor that of savers, nor the
use or administration of material resources,
their market values and trade. It is
economy in the primordial sense, i.e. the art of
managing or administering a society.
And what Confraternity mean? A brotherly
confederation of economies in indeterminate
numbers, of which each has the full possession of
its sovereignty, its choices of collective life,
its way of administering itself.
The fragmentation of the big politicized national
masses into small depoliticized economies, which
would go merely self-administered, will not take
place soon,. but the sooner the better, because
human beings cannot live in fraternity, love
each other, forgive each other, make
their peaces with all, think intelligently
(Rev of Arès 32/5), set themselves free
(10/10) from all sorts of prejudices, in
short, be penitent, as long as they
cannot be acquainted with each other very
well, that is, as long as they cannot live in
small numbers.
I am old, so I will die before I cease to elect a
Member of Parliament or Congressman someone whom I
do not know and who does not give a damn about me,
but I firmly expect that my descendants will live
in a different way and mention politicians as leaders
of old, just as we nowadays talk about satraps
of old (Daniel 6/1, Rev of AArès 22/8).
Let's prepare the breakup of
the big nations into small units or economies
living in confraternity(-ies). I think it
advisable that a movement be created to free man
from the distorting lens of justice based on the
arbitrary of powers and law, that express
but the unending revenge (Rev of Arès 27/9)
of a part of society on another part, a thousand
and one different feelings of happiness acting
against each other, and all that also keeps man
from solving the problems of conscience, which are
tremendously deep, through the justice
of love, notably forgiveness,
peace, freedom, which are drawn on the Sermon
on the Mount by Jesus of Nazareth, a prophet
of spirituality and humanism, but not one of
religion and politics. As man is One
(xxiv/1), but in vast number of natures,
the inevitable variations in achieved love
require that the big masses should be broken up
into small self-managed sovereign groups. The
efforts to renew man's freedom (10/10)
and dignity (xxxiv/13, 18/3, 28/15) are
to be made in every circumstance by setting the
great flexibility of love against the
increasing rigid formality of the dominant
ideology or doctrinaire approach, which is said to
be democratic, and which is threatening mankind
with paralysis and slavery. We have to shake
off dominant ideologies, which are new religions,
and set a liking for critical research by love,
but not by decree. With time we will keep widening
vast efforts to restore spiritual life.
Every economy will have things
in common with the other economies of its
confraternity, notably
la fraternité qui ne sera pas qu'une fraternité
gravée dans le marbre, mais une réelle fraternité
dans l'amour,
the absence of citizenship and the free movement
of people between economies,
the absence of system, whatever, whether political
or religious and its careers and ambitions, which
is to be replaced by managers or coordinators
dismissible if unsatisfactory.
the important choices made by referendum or vote
held in each economy,
union with each other against the common adversay:
Evil, notably lies, prejudices, breaches of love
of the neighbour, forgiveness, peace,
freedom.
Prophets with awakened intelligences(Rev of Arès 32/5), who have been poorly
read and finally misunderstood, Jesus among them,
have clearly talked about the relationship between
collective life and the ideal shared—the Sermon
on the Mount (Matthiew ch. 5 to 7) is the
best Design of it (Rev of Arès 28/7,
36/8)—. All of the prophets from
Noah to Muhammad (2/7-11) have
brought their own societies into question, have
gone beyond seemingly irreducible well structured
concepts, hoarded away in laws and dogmata by the
political or religious jam makers and their
"administrations with lead caps" (Rimbaud).
So far the big problem of evolution, Salvation
therefore, is the huge difference in weight
between
on the one side, the masses as if they were made
ill with diabetes and saturnism by the dominant
ideology or doctrinaire approach always much
sweetened and leaded, the mass mankind who are
shortsighted even when they think they see far
ahead, and whom power people and the ambitious
exploit,
and on the other side few thoughful skinny humans,
real loving poeple with piercing eyes, who draw on
all the resources of awakened intelligence,
and who ride the nimble colts (10/10) of
freedom just as a few Mongolian riders utterly
unexpected did in the 12th century to conquer the
world, that outnumbered them
a-hundred-thousandfold. But this time we as a
wretched host of prophets will
peacefully do what looks unfeasible: a world of souls
and love.
For something new has turned up. It might be
because He foresaw it that the Father gave The
Revelation of Arès. Religion a while ago
and politics lately have started stripping off, so
they disclose their significant weakness. Taking
refuge behind the known will soon be no-use to
them. Their subjects will have to leave those
mystago-political systems or even hasten the
decline of them, go beyond them and they should
think of that beyond right now, even though it is
not likely to happen soon. The Revelation of Arès says that Good,
which has vanished from time immemorial,
can revive. Good is not just a fortunate
solution, it is the only solution, the mainspring
of which is penitence, in other words the
observance of love,forgiveness,peace,intelligence spiritual
and free from prejudices. The supporters
of the known, the still numberless supporters of
the system, are going to laugh or be indignant
about the Arès pilgrim (Rev of Arès 12/9),
who they think is following utopian views, but
they will have more and more difficulties in
defending what is becoming indefensible.
While thinking of the Confraternity of Economies I
go beyond the scope of my prophetic mission, I
think of nothing else but the human fact top-level
and the most noble, because even those who do not
believe in me are my brothers and I do not think
that I will succeed in my prophetic mission, if I
fail to aim at getting whole mankind out of Evil.
Religion and politics do not think of the human
fact; they just think of some human beings : their
citizens, their faithful, etc.
It doesn't matter whether that human fact is or is
not very close to religion (Rev of Arès
28/12) or materialism. Man's most important
abiding features are not those seen beneath the
smiling exteriors of material well-being and/or
charitable sanctimoniousness. We have "to listen
to the voice of the wise men in rags" (Jean
Servier), because they alone show us a world,
which may still be utopian, but may well enable
man to survive the sin of sins (Rev of Arès
32/8), with which he is threatened.
November 16, 2016 (0179US) penitent's change and peace
Just
as I was told : "Justice and conscience (#178)
are not consistent with each other" and I had to reply,
"Yes, they are, they result from each other," I am going
to be told : "Change is nothing like peace."
I will reply : "Change and peace are
going together."
Descartes said : "I think, therefore I
am." I add : "I think, indeed, but I am a bundle of nerves
driven by strong atavisms. So I cannot change my life
(Rev of Arès 30/11), unless I continuously struggle
against my nature. My brothers et sisters
do likewise in order to grow as men of the coming
time (30/13). Changing requires suffering
(37/9) and courage (6/1). Therefore, peace
is not in my hand (xix/6)."
The world turned into a jungle after Adam had chosen
an evil way of life (Rév d'Arès 2/1-5), so I am
but a wildcat striving to tame itself. "I
did not come to bring peace, but a sword," said
Jesus (Matthew 10/34, Luke 12/51) to call to
mind the penitent's inner struggle. My facade
of peace, although it is a big victory over my nature, as
it is, is the result of a continuous struggle inside me.
My peace is seldom serenity, it is seldom something I can
call peace. Only the Father is a Saint (Rev of Arès 12/4). No
human being is. To be a penitent, that is, to
love all men, forgive all offenses, make
one's peace with everybody, have spirituel intelligence,
make oneself free from all prejudices, is
not a natural thing for a man to do, because he is frail,
emotional, suspicious, but he has the ability to live
contradicting his own nature, so that peace may
some day become the Peace just as day
will become the Day (33/8). "Changing?
That's impossible!" those who think that rationalism is
intelligence exclaim. They say, "It's in the nature of
humans that they feed so as to live, they die, they breed,
they can love but also hate each other and whoever hates
can't love. Each human has an inchangeable complex
nature." They say also, "People spread ideas to change the
world, but nature decides in the end," or they state,
"After all why change? I am what I am, because I belong to
my own life, and because there's every reason that I
exist. So I'm going on my way."
Now, changing is possible, because the Creator
says, "Truth is that the world has to change (Rev of
Arès 28/7). Why would He call on man to change
his own life and by changing his own life
to change the world, if it were impossible?
We have to set our change deep down and our peace
deep down to work jointly. We all have been born as humans
subjected to our own natures as well as violent, even
though the times when nature and violence tear open the
customary veil of courtesy vary from human to human much.
"Nonviolence whenever it is active consists of benevolence
towards all that is living; it is pure love," said Gandhi,
who meant that when it comes to giving up violence not
only you have to give up physical violence, but also
violence in all of its possible ways like
authoritarianism, quarrel, anger whether outside or inside
oneself. To manage it you need to build up the will to
cancel evil out — so that we may do Your Will (Rev of
Arès 12/4) —. We all have dual personalities, we
are benevolent frank people as well as liars, thieves,
murderers — "I am the brother of all murderers on earth. I
have never killed anybody, only because I have never been
under circumstances when I might have killed," said Gandhi
again —. Even when we do not sin for real, because of a
lack of circumstances to rouse sin, we have to stay aware
that sin is always within the range of possibility.
Therefore you have to stay watchful, and, moreover, you
will always find watchfulness as something likely to
disrupt your inner peace.
War does not agree with peace, but lawsuits do not agree
with peace either. Submission to law or a lot of
circumstances of life in society are bad for peace and our
seeming submission to them is but a kind of state of inner
rebellion chained up and silent. Which brings us to know
that a penitent's leading difficulty is not the
fact that he accepts love, forgiveness, peace, spiritual
intelligence and sbolute freedom as
principles, it is the fact that he has to set them going
in the depths of himself where opposite temptations make
his blood boil, because he has to resist temptations in
silence and resistance is no peace, even when he does not
suffer a fit of nerves, or he is not scary, or he turns
down the same old want to do battle.
Thanks to freedom, the liberty of being, we resist sin
and make ourselves have peace. Not because a colt
is mad, but because it is wise, it is what a free
penitent turns to be when it sets itself free
from the harness and runs away from the doctors
(Rev of Arès 10/10) of religion, politics, law,
money, culture and rationalism. It flees from dualism,
which religious monotheism has imagined and since then
claimed that God's realm is heavenly, but not earthly, and
which has split the unity of God and man. The spiritual,
the pure non-dualistic spiritual — God and man as one
being who pulls each Other's Arm (Rev of Arès xxxi/15)
— has disappeared, as it were, seeing that only few
real spiritual people are still living on earth and I hope
we belong among them. The religious as well as political
exchange values have triumphed by betraying Jesus' genius,
that was the very non-duality. Man is not the servant of
religion or politics, whatever, he is just the Image
and Likeness of the Creator in his depths (Genesis
1/26-27).
When entering unto penitence you declare
ontological war on yourself in your depths. Two identity
powers fight each other inside you; Good and
Evil, which both are specific characteristics of man. the
Peace of Good and the peace of Evil,
one word (peace) but two concepts. The small human units
will be founded on man's very close watch on both of them,
so that only Good might prevail.
This is why
Living up to mosaism (#176) will be changing by
permanenttly forsaking religion and politics.
Living up to anarkhia (#177) will be changing by
permanently substituting powers for managers.
Living up to justice and conscience (#178) will
be changing by permamently giving up law and et
setting faults under the watchful eyes of love,
forgiveness, spiritual intelligence and
absolute freedom.
For careful ! religion, politics, powers and law will for
long (Rev of Arès 22/14) keep on living in some
dark cupboard of the mind. Man is made of flesh, mind and soul (Rev of Arès
17/7), but let's not forget that these
constituents are continually diverging from each other.
The flesh is animal, the soul is
angelical and the mind, which connects them, is
the throne of man's hypocrisy. They cannot coexist and
uphold inner peace, unless penitence
is constantly striving to persist.
Until the Father's Day dawns, nothing will be
definitely gained — the Beast will live on below
the horizon (22/14) —. Even in the best
situation, that is, living together in small units, there
will be collective happiness and innner peace
only if people never stop being penitent.
October 5, 2016 (0178us) penitents' justice and conscience
The
day the Spirit is blowing deliverance —
#176 — and anarkhia —#177 — into our chests and heads (Rev of Arès
4/11, 33/4),
The day religion, politics, law and courts of justice,
which have weighed us down, are dispersed,
The day we live in festive mood and joy
(30/11) within free (10/10) small
units,
Then powers and judges will disappear, so each penitent,
whether a man or a woman, will have to turn himself or
herself into justice imperatively. But what does being just mean ?
Being just is being like Messenger Jesus
from January 15 to April 13, 1974, or the Father from
October 2 to November 22, 1977, when they spoke to me
and I understood that I was not a human being with
exceptional qualities and value, but like most human
beings a man with black teeth, with a flat neck,
with a tongue laced up, the brother dead with closed
hands (Rev of Arès xxvi/1-4), prone
to have prejudices, act in an
underhand way, be conceited. Just the same, prophet
Jesus and the Father spoke to me with love,
forgiveness, spiritual intelligence,
unbiasedly, and entrsuted me with a signal prophetic
task, changed me from a sinner and potential evil man
into a potential penitent.
Jesus and the Father call every one of my fellows of
the small remnant (24/1) alike.
That is the meaning of the word justice in
The Revelation of Arès: God's Justice
or a penitent's'justice;
in other words, it's nowhere justice but in love.
There is justice and justice.
Justice through law is unrelated to love; at
the very best it is based on materialistic equity
(Rev of Arès 28/10) and assessed from the
commonplace ideas, the culture, the sensitivity of the
area and time; it complies to an ideology, a logic among
other logics. La Rochefoucault said that "Justice is just
our anxiety to be deprived of whatever owns to us (in our
opinion)." Later, it was claimed that justice was
whatever gives rights and get them maintained, but what
are rights really? Babeuf said, "to each the same due"
(commutative justice); Marx said, "to each according to
his or her merit" (distributive justice), nowadays a
citizen says, "Each to law." But we Arès Pilgrims
say, "To each anything according to the impartiality,
mercy and help of love," detached from
the emotional, detached from ideology, law and courts of
justice.
This is why "serious-minded people" for a long time will
be calling us insane, even dangerously insane, will keep
condemning us just as they condemned Jesus. I'm afraid so!
The just man first will be a hero
(xxxv/4-12).
Just man's justice, says The Revelation of
Arès (xxxi/10) in order to make clear that it is
not law's justice.
A just man applies to the Word. Being just
is seeing everything from the Light and penitence's
standpoint, that is, from the standpoint of love,
forgiveness, peace, intelligence
spiritual and freed from every prejudice, and
with the prospect of sharing the world between all of its
owners: human beings.
Even when faced with serious misconduct, criminal
activity, you do not judge (Matthew 7/1).
Whenever faced with evil you have to stifle your impulsive
emotional self, remain neutral, so that you can lucidly
radically reform the awareness that all men on earth are
co-responsible for the murder, misdeed or offense by one
man or woman.
This is a real revolution of the sense of justice, that
the Sermon on the Mount advocated, but that has
never been applied and that is still to create.
There has been so far no entry
as hard to shorten as this one in my blog, for the
concept of justice, which is basic in our
current penitent life, will be still more
fundamental when penitence becomes the link
that bundles a nation (Rev of Arès 28/21) as a
small unit. I have written, then many times made
alterations and re-written this entry, but despite my
concern about brevity I have forever ended up in too
long a text. In the end I have retained only a few
paragraphs which I have thought are minimally useful.
When an individual wants to hide behind
law and courts of justice, so that he or she should not
take decisions in all conscience, he or she loses his or
her capacity as a human person. He or she confines himself
or herself to being a slave to the system, a human subject
to trial, who thinks that obtaining justice is grovelling
before bodies and staffs so-called of justice, before a
few substitutes for conscience like public opinion or
state-employed law servants. In any lawsuit each litigant
thinks he or she is within his or her rights and calls it
injustice when he or she loses; the losing litigant
understands that what people call justice is not justice.
It might be in courts of justice that humans feel the
night cold best in which Adam has made his descendants
live (Rev of Arès 2/1-5).
Only conscience, once it is penitent and
absolutely free (Rev of Arès 10/10), can drag
itself from that night and enjoy the daylight again
waiting for the great Day (Rev of Arès 31/8). It
may be in the quest for justice that a penitent
will be like an actor of mankind's adventure in its
optimal blossoming, penitence, that none of the
legalist justice swords will be able to threaten.
A lawsuit is one of the more saddening serious dramas
which the system makes man live through. But in the small
unit in which a penitent will live some day
neither courts of justice nor lawsuits will ever be.
In a society under love, forgiveness, peace and
heartfelt intelligence all of men will be
Antigones having successfully held out against the
arbitrary of the law of the Beast as long as it
lays dying on the horizon (Rev of Arès 22/14).
Hermann Rauschning wrote a book, "The Nihilistic
Revolution" in which he denounced the Nazi government,
that had been voted in democratically, and that used to
expel, jail or kill "anybody enjoying the luxury of taking
a decision according to his or her own conscience," but
any court of justice on earth one way or another sentences
any personal conscience whenever it is against law. In
democracy the masses think they are free, but they bows
down to judges who enforce law, which they regard as
stronger than conscience. That's dreadful! That thinking
defect has led common people to mistake law for ethics and
justice, which is opposite to the inalienable right that
the Maker has given Good man to take decisions
as his conscience and his spiritual intelligence
once it is awoken dictate. I also add that Boris Cyrulnik
draws attention to the fact that "the feeling of injustice
is the result of emotional reaction much more than one of
thinking" or of submissiveness to law. So he reminds that
those who demand law do not believe that law is just; they
believe that it only a necessary lesser evil. Courts of
justice might be called courts of law best.
In "France against robots" Bernanos accused modern society
of making human beings sheep lying flat in front of the
least decree issued by a prefect or verdict by a court,
but the "Christian" France that Bernanos missed had not
been better. Politics and/or religion does not decide on Good
or evil ; Good and/or evil is decided by the
Word, which is passed on by the man that is too
loving like the too loving Father (Rev of Arès
12/7). Everything shows that we
have to regain conscience like love through penitence.
Do law and courts of justice relieve humans of the real
chore of judging? Actually, the world looks like it were
filled of people dissatisfied with the State justice. So
men will sooner or later end up with penitent
justice, although its big problem is that it cannot
be applied without love. Hence the need to start
with the task of spreading the practice of penitence,
the steam engine without which the long train of mosaism,
anarkhia, justice and so on will never move off.
Just think of the fact that justice cannot work
if it lacks forgiveness and necessity of rehabilitating
the men or women at fault.
The alledged achievements of modern times have literally
shattered a powerful noble capacity of man: his conscience
as the image and likeness of the Father's
Conscience. God asks us not to mention Mercy
constantly (Rev of Arès 16/15), but Mercy is a
reality we have to pass on to the world. Love is clarity,
it is above all authorities of power and law, all the
Creons (Sophocles: Antigone), all the arbitrary powersin
which law codes belong first .
Their (the princes') abomination is a case
for My Justice (Rev of Arès 22/12), but God's Justice
does not jail or kill anybody; It is a Call for Good
, to which the Word of Arès gives concrete
expression. You shall not have human eyes used to
judging and coveting, but you shall have the eyes of a
prophet that has seen My Justice (35/9). If those madmen
called for My Justice, I would shut their jaws (34/5),
which does not mean that God would kill them, but would
only make them be quiet, because men end up being silent
sooner or later, when God speaks. (When you) imagine
that you walk ahead of Me ... just as he (apostle
Philip) walked, but with Justice (1/5), that is,
with love. You had better be with people who
have been scandalized so they never utter My Name, but
live according to My Justice, than be with devout people
lacking in courage (39/9). Your (the
prophet's) word is My Word, the Justice of a just man
(xxxi/10).
The word justice meaning human or bad justice,
or even injustice, is found in: Having a fear for the
nations' leaders and their justices (Rev of Arès 2/17).
The word justice meaning good justice, soundness:
The sun of your justice burns the far, that is,
will be stronger than science and legalism, and gives
with two hands, that is, in a generous manner
(xxxvi/22).
The problem of justice is not that which has never been
solved, and which has continuously brought lawmakers and
professionals of the law of rats (Rev of Arès xix/24)
into conflict ever since Adam choosed his world
(2/1-5) and turned down the Creator's
world. Ever since Adam's days Hans Kelsen and his "Pure
Theory of Law" (Reine Rechtslehre)" did not solve more
than all legalists on Earth ever solved the problem of the
irretrievable arbitrary nature of law, the mirror of the
arbitrary nature of paganism, in which religions have not
yet stopped dressing up the "Justice of God". What the
Father calls His Court or Judgment Seat
(16/13, 21/7) is a transcendent concept, which no
codes or proceedings can hold, because It is the universal
consensus of the Father's Mercy and His
Children's souls created through their love,
their forgiveness, their peace, their
spiritual intelligence of free (10/10)
penitents; It is the soundness of the just
man that is the Justice of of the Just One, the
non-dualistic fusion of the man of Good and the
Creator of Good. It is the Justice,
that has not yet existed, that is still just a Promise
(1/6, 2/8, 28/22), a Design (28/27, 36/8)
in the too much loving humans' hearts. It is
the Justice that, in the situations of conflict
still bound to crop up in the best of the worlds, before
the Day dawns (Rev of Arès 31/8), as
long as man's weaknesses call for encouragement to Good
and discouragement to Evil, will be aware that avoiding
neverending revenge will always be wiser than making the
culprits suffer.
In a big bubble of artifice, which is has turned
automatic,law, courts and all moralists on
Earth live, which make themselves gods opposite God,
consciences opposite conscience. The word conscience is
nowhere in The Revelation of Arès, because it is
the very tangle of knots that It entreats us to undo so as
to restore the length and suppleness of the rope of intelligence,
love and forgiveness. The word conscience
is nowhere in The Revelation of Arès, because it
is quite different from the word penitence, the
real meaning of which is concrete and still fit for
restoring, and because it refers to the sense of good
and evil, the obscurest Core of Cores (xxxiv/6),
the Word's main implication that has frustrated the mighty
so much that they have masked it with men's books
(35/12, i/5-9) in the Scripture. The word
conscience is nowhere in The Revelation of Arès,
because it is crushed, unrecognizable under the serious
bone of contention between mankind and its Creator. But
conscience has several analogues there like, when God is
concerned, I have Power and Knowledge, and,
when man is concerned, you have moderation, patience
and piety (Rev of Arès 39/3).
The whole of what we call law is just an arbitrary matter
and it is a lesser evil at best. We have to restore the just
man's suppleness of thinking; any man on earth can
be a just man. A judge is just a civil servant
shut up in a system, which is his own world. This is not
the world that we yearn for. It is of the utmost
importance to be getting ready and urge our descendants to
be getting ready to change the concept of justice,
that will necessarily work in the way dictated by the Sermon
on the Mount (Matthew ch.5 to 7), that is, through
love, forgiveness, peace, spiritual intelligence
freed from prejudices. Let's plan to replace the law that has been
with the Law that is to be (28/7-8), which
means with equity, forgiveness, help to
culprits, in other words replace a pathogenic painful
concept of justice with a happy creation, because real
justice can only recreate the human.
Anarchy is an awkward topic.
Whenever I am asked, "What are the Arès Pilgrims?"
I reply in two polysemous words which people feel as
conflicting , "An anarchy of penitents,"
and in my questioners' eyes I can see fear, or
enthusiasm, or embarrassment; I can seldom see peace
of mind.
Nevertheless, The Revelation of Arèssays,
You will not be a leader for anyone (16/1), You
will never give orders to anyone (36/19).
which is the definition of anarchy.
But we live in the course of time (12/6), changing
our lives (30/11) can't help but be gradual.
Moreover, many an Arès Pilgrim, whose job is a power,
can change it into knowledge and responsability and
never lose his or her job.
As they are naturally prophetical, the
small remnant (24/1, 26/1, 29/2, 33/12), who are
the changed world in its early stages, will keep
on extending in depth and width following up The
Revelation of Arès's teaching developed by the eldest
brother (16/1) or just prophet (xxxvii/2),whose word is the Word (i/12). The small
remnant are to remain the epitome of the the
community layout of the small units of humans, most of
which will possibly consist of real penitents
and anarkhists (no leaders for anybody), whatever
affinities families they will belong in. In other small
units — as freedom shall be respected — organizations will
be non-Aresian and varied, but will tend towards anarkhism
as a result of their community smallnesses.
Anarkhia, an ingredient in the achievement of The
Revelation of Arès, cannot be introduced into the
big masses, whose peace and order are just based on
political powers and laws. Anarkhia as well as
penitent life in joy and festive
mood (Rev of Arès 30/11) is only possible in small
units of humans. Therefore, it is but towards the breakup
of the big masses into small units of free
humans that our action line in public affairs can be
conceived. We reject politics, which continuously pursues
power, makes laws, offends against freedom even in
democracies, which are rule by elected ones over a
majority of voters of the other side + nonvoters.
An anarkhia (Greek ἀναρχία) is a society organized and
managed without any government, in which no one claims to
have power over anyone. In 1840 Proudhon said, "Freedom is
anarchy, because it does not agree that willpower rules,
but it agrees with law's authority, that is, it agrees
with necessity." We can accept this statement, if the law
mentioned by Proudhon is the coming Law (Rev of Arès
28/8), the widespread practice of love,
forgiveness,peace, spiritual intelligence
(32/5) free (10/10) from all prejudices, that which
The Revelation of Arès calls penitence.
Élisée Reclus said : "Anarchy is the greatest expression
of order." Leo Tolstoï, also an anarchist, said about
social ethics : "(Only) private revolution, the daily
metamorphosis (penitence) of every individual
should be the rule in society." Jacques Ellul said about
Christian religion, "Churches' conformism and conservatism
either social or political, pomp, hierarchy, the so-called
Christian moral standards, law system, Churches'
dignitaries' authoritarian Christiany, etc., that is just
the social institution of Churches. That is not Christian
faith, at all. So anarchists are right to deny that
Christianity." Every one of these authors and many others,
whom I can't mention, are very much like The
Revelation of Arès on many a point.
The Revelation of Arès says, Just be One in
yourself! (Rev of Arès xiv/1) and by that it means
that the Universe, creatures and their Creator
are just One together. The Creator even hears
the rock shouting (xiv/6), which then has life
though it is different from what science calls life:
Life (24/5) in its universal extension. If as
things stand a present the man, the star and the Hand
of God (xiv/9) are not One, its is
because the Father has made the Child free
in His Image and Likeness (Genesis 1/26) and
because the Child has freely made its religion, politics,
power, law and culture breakers of Oneness. So the
paradoxical piece of dust, that is the Mare that
stinks (Earth, xix/15), poisons the infinite Universe.
How can men love and understand each other, and how can
harmony permeate through men but also through men and
anything else, if different are the concepts of the
True (Rev of Arès xxxiv/1-4), the basis of reason
that anarkhia can manage?
The variety of human kinds of society and the unbridling
of moral debilities not only never treated or mended, but
also seen as normal and even inspired, is the root of
never-ending inconsistencies and conflicts. Religions, not
to mentions other domains, are now monotheistic — Judaism,
Christianity, Islam —, now different — Hinduism, Buddhism,
Taoism, Confucianism and so on — , and within each
religion a wide range of types. None of ecumenicisms,
which are authoritarian themselves, will ever be able to
correct that. Faith variety kills the main Truth,
which achieved Good is, to which everything is
destined to go back. Politics heads up other forms of
religion. In brief, the world has gone off in such a way
that all of intelligent people questing for
unity, whatever culture they may have, are aware that
anarkhia is not an ideology among others, but it is
mankind's primordial wisdom, that we have to find just as
we have to find Life (Rev of Arès 24/5].
Shankara, previously mentioned in entry #171 "nonduality",
said, "The soul is naturally pure, alert and
free." As long as a great number of humans have not got a
soul yet, disorder injustice, violence and the
powers that claim they can control them, but that actually
cause disorder, injustice and violence, are going to wreak
havoc on the world.
I see press, politic speeches, administration forms, codes
of law and religious sermons as barbaric songs filled with
noise, threat, roughnes. There jostle together
formal demands, controversies, praises, threat,
intimidation, pathos, suffering, enslaving, renonciation.
What am I to do then, if not do hope that I will regain the
True and its wisdom in anarkhia right outside the noise,
the count?
Moses was a leader for anyone. He was just a guide.
He appointed Aaron leader for the ones of the Exodus
people that wanted a leader, but he decided so
temporarily.
When anarkhia crowns penitence, the liberation,
the fulfilment of man and the end of the chaotic History
of powers will be near at hand. Anarkhia will have reigned
for some time when dawns the Father's Day (Rev of
Arès 31/8), when the several thousand year old
alternation of life and death is over, when Good
and Life (24/5) definitely come into existence
and the last ones who speak from above the eye
(xix/7) vanish like flabby aerolites. The tupha
will never go rotten (xix/11)anymore, it will bloom
like immortal glorious water lilies on the rivers of
Eden.
Nothing can be better to the world than anarkhia, the
flower and fruit of penitence. The Good
world will be managed and well-managed, but anarkhic.
Let's set our sights on a world changed and
leaderless in spite of the sledgehammer arguments
bound to be inflicted on us ; we will be called insane!
Thereupon, the murderous brutality of historic anarchists
has forever stunned me. How could those murderers think
that to kill the mighty might ever stop the system from
replacing them? They were innocently unaware of the thirst
for power that culture has set in man; they were unaware
that only penitence can quench that thirst. Only
an apostolic long-term job will be efficient.
A great month of June, 2016 :
In Italy, the Movimento 5 Stelle (antirsystemic
antipolitical Five Stars Movement) is elected to the
mayoralty in Rome and Turin.
In the United Kingdom, the Brits by popular referendum set
themselves free from the political bureaucracy which has
so far imposed itself upon the masses regardless of local
aspirations and liberty.
Both events are forerunners of the wind of change
that The Revelation of Arès has been sweeping
through part of the world for forty-two years. They
foreshadow men's headless, non-religious, non-political, penitent
small units, within which love, forgiveness, peace,
intelligence free from prejudices can be common
societal practive, and without which the race
can't be as One in love, just as the Universe
couldn't be as One and well-balanced, if it were
not made of myriad stars.
There is no question that penitencechanges
life for the better (Rev of Arès 30/11)
and from generation to generation is going to change
the world (28/7),
society therefore, for
the better. The change in society will
not be made through politics in the sense given to
politics nowadays, but through the rising into view of a
new kind of citizens: penitents.
And yet the change process will sometimes look
or sound like politics, but in a meaning that has
vanished ever since politics, whatever ideology it has
claimed, has been a career for politicians, a quest for
power and the making of law. The penitents'
political path will not be anything else than
the public part beside the private part of life,
community running opposite any sort of government,
exercised with love, forgiveness, peace,
good-hearted intelligence free from all
prejudices.
A practice that is to require a will, honesty, and cool
thinking particularly in the current time of design,
because man's timorous emotional nature perverts reason.
I am now starting my own thinking on this point of
utmost importance that is to have the entry "Small human
units" as an apex later on
In October 2015 I was able to carry out a plan that I had
toyed with a long time : A journey through five historical
Cantons of Switzerland: Uri (William Tell's homeland,
35.000 inhabitants.), Schwitz (148.000 h.), Nidwald
(41.000 h.), Obwald (36.000 h.) and Zug (115.000 h.),
because those Cantons actually are small sovereign
independent nations similar to the small human units that
I hope will flourish on earth some day after the big
masses have broken up.
I was expecting to visit a pîcture-postcard Switzeland,
farmers with feathered hats and leather shorts on who
milked cows and made cheese. Unlike it I saw modern,
industrial, flourishing small nations proving that men's
very small groups can really well live in the midst of a
technological world, as selfmanaged societies in peace,
justice, affluence, unaware of political, ideological,
even spiritual conflictes, which are inevitably met in big
masses.
Don't have dreams! Uri people,Swchytz people, Obwald and
Nidwald people, Zug people are not Moseses, but they live
in small human units where they might well become Moseses.
We will have to work hard and long so that our current,
basic, spiritual mission may be coupled with a societal
mission to call on men to dispose of their inner cultures
with iron teeth (Psalm 57/4) as well as smash
the big masses politicized, to change what is nowadays
wrongly called nations into real nations, that will go
back under the Father's tutelage (Rev of Arès 28/21),
in the name of love, forgiveness, peace, intelligence
free from all prejudices. Currently the Arès
Pilgrims are insignificant in number, but — as the
unexpected Italian Movimento 5 Stelle gives proof of it —
they may some day show influential. The question that has
to be considered first is, "What kind of citizen is The
Revelation of Arès making its follower?" He will
be a complex citizen like every human on earth, but a free
one (Rev of Arès 10/10, 16/1), an intelligent
one (32/5), a brother (L/2),
a liberatorr (ix/8), someone fundamentally mosaic.
What meaning shall you give this term?
So much luster has Moses that I sound incongruous
whenever I say that a right penitent is a
Moses.
The Word that Moses listens to, however, can't be
different from that which Mikal hears in Arès.
Moses is neither the commander (Rev of Arès 16/1,
36/19) depicted in the Bible, which books
written by men (35/12) have distorted, nor the
maker of laws which too much of a loving Father
(12/7) might never inspire.
As an Egyptian deeply upset by the Hebrews' misery
Moses hears (Exodus 3/4-21 4/1-17) that the Father
and His Offspring (13/5 = the whole human race
xii/5) should be as One like
the Universe (12/4) is One, so that
happiness (36/23) may arise.
Moses is a penitent of reference just as Jesus
is thirteen centuries later.
A mosaic citizen is a human being over whom the Breath
of endless reality blows, that has continually recurred
from the days of Noah, Abraham, Moses up to the days of The
Revelation of Arès.
Real mosaism rules out mythical Moses, who has been
biblicized as the rescuer of the only Hebrews. When the
Father on Mount Horeb tells Moses, I have indeed seen
the misery of My People... So I have come down to rescue
them (Exodus 3/7-8), he means by People
whole mankind having lived in the misery of sin
ever since Adam's time.
Real mosaism enables no one to open up a pass in
the Red Sea and gives no one the right to write up laws
and legends, which are but books by men (Rev of Arès
35/12). Moses like every prophet sets man
free until times are over and he sets only Hebrews free,
because his lifetime lasts only 120 years (Deutéronomy
34/1-9). Moses, after acting in a manner the
arduous reality of which we are unaware of — the "plagues
of Egypt", the "Red Sea crossing" are just a saga —,
starts setting mankind free with Hebrews from Egypt and
launches an Exodus, which has not yet stopped,
because it has repeatedly been interrupted by religion and
politics for 3,200 years.
The revival of the Exodus — the spiritual
deliverance of mankind — sounded to me straightaway like
the obvious core of The
Revelation of Arès ; this is
why I called Exodus the restart of the people got stuck in
their sin, their religions, their politics,
their ideas, theirs habits. In that sense the Arès
Pilgrims' faith is indeed mosaic.
Let's forget about the baby rescued from the Nile and then
raised in the Pharaoh's palace — a story that is just
a patch-up of Sargon of Akkad's legendary biography
— and quite simply let's regard Moses as an inhabitant of
Egypt whose mind and heart a Revelation enriches. Let's
not seek the reason why the Father choses Moses, a
murderer (Exodus 2/12), and why 3,200 years
later He chooses me a sinner as a prophet,
or why then I am followed by brothers and sisters devoid
of prophetical merit and ability just as pathetic Hebrews
never stopping moaning follow Moses.The Father
reveals Himself to His Children
(Rev of Arès 13/5) just as He creates the Universe,
that is, in the same way invariably. The relations between
God and Moses and then 3,200 years later between Him and Mikal
are necessarily the same. Just as The Revelation of
Arès exists today The Revelation of Mount
Horeb used to exist in the days of Moses, even
though very little of it is now extant. Let's consider it
as obvious that the talk between Moses and God revealing
Himself in the Burning Bush is not reduced to
what the Bible tells. Exodus, Leviticus, Nombers, Deuteronomey (Bible)
are legends that have developed around a few realities,
only a few things of which stick to my mind: the beginning
(Exodus 3/1-21-4/1-17) and the end (Deuteronomy
32/1-44) and a few facts and statements in
between. The profound meaning of The Revelation of
Mount Horeb is only found in the spirit of
deliverance that Moses gives to all the hardships of the
Hebrews in the Sinai.
The similarity between the Exodus Hebrews and
the penitents of The Revelation of Arès
is in the everyday heroism (Rev of Arès xxxv/4-12)
which that sort of emigration requires, whether geographic
or spiritual. It is the rocky path (25/5) of
penitence. Along this path both the inner
fight and the outer fight against sin is an
action more painful than the bondage of sin, but
it is a very hard effort which is vindicated by change,
which is transfiguration, as a result. The change
in question is that which is symbolized by the crossing of
the Red Sea , the manna and so on, the result of which is
attained thanks to a steadfast effort spurting up as a
powerful vitality, which is just temporary among the
Hebrews, who fall back into sin and religion
long before the Exodus is nearing its end (the
golden calf Exodus ch.32), but which among the Arès
Pilgrims is already in their inner self before shining out
in a defintive societal insurgence sooner or later.
Like Moses, who is slow of speech and tongue (Exodus
4/10), the Arès Pilgrims as missionnaries have
difficulties in speaking to the world, because very hard
is telling people in an old language about a new way of
life and awaking a life of unremitting creativity in a
society set rigidly in outdated generally received ideas.
Like Moses the Arès Pilgrims are becoming benevolent and
thoughtful. Like him the Arès Pilgrims make their abstract
longings concrete and transcendent, even though the
transcendence is not yet visible to a blind society. They
leave the earthly iron rule with politics just like Moses
leaves it with Aaron, but they are working out a new world
devoid of politics, because politics is law and the
institutions that impose it upon people: courts of
justice, police, army, religion, taxmen, whereas they want
to make the world free. Like Moses they don't
have any personal ambition and strive towards a sole goal,
which is Good on earth.
Moses like any prophet is an example,
he is not a commander.
Any penitent and harvester of penitents
is a Moses, the eldest brother (Rev of Arès 16/1)
that harvests the brothers capable of
freeing themselves from sin like him. Sin
standardizes, glues, concretes, but Good
scatters harmoniously like poppies over meadows or the
wheat. There is still for us to make poppies everlasting!
Everywhere on earth man has turned sinful and
got lost in the hard liquor of sin. He is
thirsting for himself, for his egoism, for his desires and
ambitions, he can only in scarce times achieve works
worthy of the Creator whose image and likeness
(Genesis 1/26-27) he has kept deep down like a
lifeless chrisalis. And yet a sinner
can detoxify himself from sin just as Moses
detoxifies himself from barbarity (Exodus 2/11-15). We
are aware that the world is not far from the point of non
return (the sin of sins, 38/2), but has not yet
reached it.
This entry 176 is not the right place to go through the
lowest depths of metaphysics. I confine myself, therefore,
to saying but not elaborating it that there is universal
analogy between sin and penitence.
Albeit a sinner ages and then dies in a short
time — an eighty year lifetime is not much! —, he can
freshen himself up, revive, in the course of an Exodus
which is to last long — four generations will
not be enough (Rev of Arès 24/2) —, but at the end
of which he is to enter into Eden again, drown the world's
cruel absurdity, and make up his absolute freedom
again (10/10). It is important to say again and
again that men will be unable to do that change,
as long as the world is not studded with myriad small
human units just as the Universe is studded with
myriad stars and is never at odds with the Creation's
infiniteness. Love and bliss do not
depend upon the politicized magnitude of the people, but
they depend upon the people's free diversity.
The
Revelation of Arès, a Word from the Maker, is not
about God or religion.
It is about the coming man (30/13),penitence
(16/17) and Life (24/3-4).
Whether the Word was revealed by Isaiah circa 760 BC,
or Jesus in 30 in Galilee (Palestine) or in 1974 in Arès
(France),
or Muhammad in 700 in Arabia,
or God's Light in 1977 in Arès (France),
not two human beings can understand it in like manner. This is why the Maker has made the Pilgrimage to Arès
a time to surpass oneself,
forget about differences, withdraw to the Core of
Cores (xxxiv/6) or the fundamentals, or love,
a Place where all possible ways of understanding
and praying vanish behind Life.
The Arès Pilgrimage just as The Revelation of Arès
do not belong in any religion.
The words regarded as the ones that founded the
Pilgrimage
were uttered by the Creator on November 22, 1977
:
Revelation
of Arès xLi/1. I am here.
2. You come here, the brothers come here.
3. The lip seizes and holds the Fire from My Hand.
4. The brow burns.
5. The Fire enters the man.
6. Would the spide (spider) suck the Fire ?
7. Call on the brothers and brothers, "Come and
seize the Fire!
8. "When your foot is down below, your shout flies
off high."
9. Forty footsteps tie My Strength and My Favor
together where the forehead hits the stone, where
the eye weeps jus as your eye is weeping.
10. where the pikes of My Fire pierce evil
11. My Hand hurts the man, (but) the man lives,
12. his hand made bigger climbs My Arm.
13. Here the man's hand seizes and holds My Hand.
Every year Brother Michel goes on
Pilgrimage to Arès in order to live the supernatural
Events again, which he witnessed in this very place in
1974 and 1977, and fill his penitence and
prophetic action with Fire again. His brothers
and sisters, that have faith in The Revelation of
Arès go with him there for similar reasons, for
they are witnesses and prophets in his
wake.
The Pilgrimage to Arès does not abolish other pilgrimages
on Earth. It gives them a final meaning, that is, an only
Creator exists, the very plain Father of Good,
whathever name men give him: Maker, God, the Eternal,
Allah, Father, Brahma, and so on. He is the Saint
That gets you to forget about sin, time and histoiry,
which are but makings of man. The Pilgrimage
reminds men, whatever religion they may have, whatever
pack they may belong in, of the fact that they are a
special race that has to change into good
so as to avoid falling into the sin of sins (38/2), that
is, sinking into evil for ever.
Why go on Pilgrimage to Arès?
Neither an Arès Pilgrim nor anybody
else in quest of salvation is under a
religious obligation of any kind. The only path
to salvation, whether personal or collective
(28/7), is penitence, which for the time being
consists in loving one's neighbor, forgiving offenses,
making peace with everybody everywhere, thinking and
speaking with kind-hearted intelligence
(32/5), being free (10/10) from all
prejudices, and for the future preparing to share
everything with everybody. So there is no more
obligation to go on Pilgrimage to Arès than to pray in
such or such a manner. The Pilgrimage to Arès, however,
may be a strong necessity of personal conscience,
Who may come as a pilgrim ?
Any human, provided he or she is
not a stubborn sinner or unrepentant (26/11,
36/6) with intent to cause disruption or
coming purely out of curiosity. Any human, whatever
religion or philosophy he or she has, is a Child of
the Father (13/5) and is called on
(4/4). A suggestion is made to any pilgrim, who
has no ties with Arès Pilgrims, that he or she adopts
their habits on the sacred place : the tunic (a tunic is
lent : the tunic covers the clothes and so erases the
differences between sexes and personal states), bare
feet.
Who welcomes you?
Some Arès Pilgrims. Arès Pilgrims,
first a nickname in the 70s, has become the usual name
of the disciples of The Revelation of Arès who
now take on the cost of the maintenance and service of
the Pilgrime, managed by L'Œuvre du Pèlerinage d'Arès
(an association under the French 1905 Law).
The Arès Pilgrims do not form a religion, but they form
a liberating spiritual movement, so they do not keep
jealous eyes on their sanctuary. The Spirit (33/4-8)
of The Revelation of Arès is of openness. As
they are apostles of the rebirth of Life (24/5)
in themselves by penitence and in the world by
the harvest of penitents, they welcome all
people of love, forgiveness and peace, free of
all prejudics, who believe that there is one Truth,
that the world has to change (Revelation of Arès
28/7).
Where are you welcomed?
You enter the Pilgrimage premises
at 46, avenue de la Libération in Arès
(Gironde, France) into the house where Jesus
appeared in 1974, who on the Father's Behalf dictated The
Gospel Given at Arès (First part of The
Revelation of Arès). This house is not shown
through — You shall not make this place a sanctuary
(40/2), Jesus said —. Unless you are a regular
pilgrim, you will be told all pieces of information you
need there (see Helpful information
below).
What books are at your disposal?
The Revelation of Arès
which contains The Gospel Given in Arès (1974)
and The Book (1977), the Bible and the Quran.
The other kinds of revelation are miscellaneous and
unforeseeable so much that are not laid in the praying
hall. However, any pilgrim can bring along the books
from which he or she has been used to praying.
Free prayer; no ceremony or
ritual.
Only respect and discretion are
required from the pilgrims. The True (xxxiv/1-4)
blossoms like spring flowers in any place where the Breath
wafts (2/14) and humans intend anything but Good.
Salvation is not given to men by words, which are
just mnemonic devices, but men get it by practicing Good
or penitence (30/11), the Fire of which
pilgrims, whetever habits of faith they may have, go to
Arès to rekindle.
A believer of a religion, whether jewish, or christian,
or muslim and so on, may feel stunned being given
a free hand to pray in the way he or she wants as
well as seeing the joy of the Arès Pilgrims when they
share their piety habits (the tunic, the bare feet,
etc.) with him or her, even though they do not force him
or her to do so. It is because he or she does not
realize immediately thet an Arès Pilgrims is just a man
or woman of Good, a religionless penitent
who can't tell the difference between all of the penitents
on earth, whetever metaphysics they may have
privately.
The Arès Pilgrims themselves are various.There are the
ones who have chosen to belong in the small remnant and
take great care to duplicate the specific mission of the
witness or prophet of The
Revelation of Arès, but do not consider
themselves as topmost. There are the ones who follow
less strict paths for varied reasons and at
different standards. In any case, however, The
Revelation of Arès brings spiritual life into
proportion and makes it a quest for Good, for
regaining the Creator's image and likeness (Genesis
1/26-27) within each creature that has set
about loving (2/12, 25/2-7, 27/4, 28/10-15) too
much (12/7) if necessary, forgiving
(12/4), making peace (xxv/11, 13/8, 15/5,
28/15, 36/17), restoring spiritual intelligence
(32/5), becoming free (1/10) of all
prejudices. This is how man is going to make the Day
(31/8) of happiness (26/23). The Arès
Pilgrims are not gathered together in a register, or by
sharing a dogma or a visible sign. What gathers them is
the very strong conviction that only Good can
triumph over Evil, create the soul
and save individuals as well as the world.
The Arès Pilrimage where and when?
In summer at Arès, France
(33740, Gironde),
46 avenue de la Libération,
Three phases:
from June 21 to July 4,
from July 12 to July 25,
from August 2 to August 15.
For the three phases, the House of the Saint's Word
(where the Creator spoke in 1977) is open
on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 18:00 to
21:00,
on Friday 08:30 to 11:30
on Saturday and Sunday, also on July 14 and August 15
(except when they fall on a Friday) 17:30 to 21:00
Each pilgrim prays and/or meditates freely and is
careful not to bother other pilgrims.
Helpful information :
On arriving the new pilgrim is not asked his or her name
or what religion he or she belongs in. Only two questions
are asked to him or her, "Do you believe that The
Revelation of Arès, the Bible and the Quran are
from the Creator?" and "Do you love all of men and do you
forgive all of their offenses?"
If he or she answers yes to both questions, he or she is
welcomed by brothers and sisters, who reminds him or her
of the meaning of the Pilgrimage to Arès.
If he or she answers yes to one question only, the
brothers or sisters pay closer attention to him or her.
If he or she answers no to both questions, he or she is
asked a third question, "Do you think that an especially
important event has taken place here? Are you here to
ponder it? Will you have respect for the Pilgrimage peace
and routine?"
If he or she answers yes to this question, the reception
brothers or sisters will pay very close attention to him
or her before one of them goes with him to the exedra,
which is the anteroom to the praying hall.
If he or she answers no to the question, we will be very
sorry not to let him or her in.
What are you to know, if you want to be a member of the
small remnant (24/1) some day?
There is nowhere any register, or central filing system,
or ritual or conditions of membership in the Assembly
of those who believe in The Revelation of Arès,
because, on principle, they at full term, on the Day
when there is no more day or night, when the Light
covers everything (31/8), will be all of the
Creator's Children, all of the Good men.Due to this, you can tell only two kinds of disciples
of The Revelation of Arès : Those of the
small remnant — The Arès Pilgrims spelt by the witness
with upper-case P —and the others, the great
melting-pot of the Arès pilgrims spelt with lower-case p.
The former and the latter are penitents, however,
so none of them is a guaranteed elect, fot no one can
know who is saved and who is not saved (11/3).
Only the Arès Pilgrims of the small remnant are
definable, because they as strictly as possible understand
The Revelation of Arès and put it into practice
as the prophet do. The others understand The
Revelation of Arès and put it into practice in
varied many ways. But all of Arès Pilgrims and Arès pilgrims are
radically different from traditional believers who seek
salvation in the dogmas, laws and prejudices of a
religion. An Arès Pilgrim as well as an Arès pilgrim is a
free (10/10) conscience. He or she contributes to
the salvation or change of the world (28/7)
by his or her own penitence (the practice
of love, forgiveness, peace, free good-hearted
intelligence) and by his or her continuous harvest
of new penitents. His or her faith is conscienced
(xxii/14), that is, based on the conscience that
nothing but The Revelation of Arès explains all
historical Scriptures which are crammed with books
by men (35/12). Arès Pilgrims as well as Arès
pilgrims work together towards the revival of the
genuine Christianity of the Sermon on the Mount
(Matthew ch. 5 to 7).
The Fire of plain spiritual life, which is
the quest for Good,
is what people come and rekindle within themselves in
Arès for the Pilgrimage time.
"Life
is a shortish exile," said Plato,
but Life, the Other one, once it is
rediscovered (Revelation of Arès 24/5), will
give us infinite Bliss back.
Christianity has generated a society
that is almost the opposite of the Sermon on the
Mount (Matthew ch.5 to 7); the
same can be asserted about judaism and islam. I dearly
express the wish that the faith based on The
Revelation of Arès will never be hijacked by the
system of Adam (Rev of Arès 2/1-5) just as the
three of them have been, so that the Arès Pilgrims' descendants
(39/10) may not be
criticized for committing errors, wrongs, murders, lies,
rules, that the Word has never laid down. None of men is unaware that pulling out of the Word
unachieved, that is, out of the contradiction between
the Word and societal life, will be a toil(Rev
of Arès 31/6)much
harder that the hard work to convince the masses of
the truthfulness of The Revelation of Arès. Let's remember that the Father has not sent us out
to sow (6/2), but to harvest
penitents, those that still hear the
call of the Creator's image and likeness (Genesis
1/26) within themselves, the eagle injured
but not dead, which lies (28/6) there deep
down, those that give up Evil and recreate Good
and never stray from it.
All depends on the practice of Good, on what The
Revelation of Arès calls the achieved Word
(35/6). Each Arès Pilgrim is aware that he or
she is not saved and the the World will not be saved
by dogmata, ideology, the law of rats (xix:24),
the law that prevails (28/8) whether
religious or political, but they are to be saved by
the achievement, experience in Good,
that is the coming law (28/7), that will be
neither devised nor written, but that will stay live
in man's heart, where we have to awake it.
Not the Eternal, or God, or the Father, or Allah achieves,
but man.
God's Arm certainly holds the hand that
holds the sword, the Iron (Rév d'Arès 35/14,
xLix/2), but man is the one that brings down
Evil and cuts out (xx/6)Good.
We will not make up Moses, Jesus or Muhammad in the
way religion has made them up. We will not make Jesus
or Muhammad a socialist or a monarchist, a proletarian
or a capitalist, tyrannical or rebellious, a crusader
or a hermit. There is just one Truth, that
of Good or that of the Father of the
Universe (Rev of Arès 12/4), so we never get Truth
as long as we fail to comply with Good.
Rebuilding Good calls for penitence. Being
a penitent means loving one's neighbor whoever,
forgiving all of offenses,making peace
with all men, showing intelligence
wholehearted and free from every prejudice,
and then later, after a long complete societal
overhaul, sharing everything with all people.
The whole process involves leaving the fat valley
(Rev of Arès 26/4),climbing the Heights
(7/1), reversing the direction of the
consciousnesses that the system has endowed us with,
but it likewise involves never disowning the past,
because you never disown your mother, even though you
do not comply with her views of things. You get beyond
them or else you may develop a loathing or even hatred
and then fall back into the system, which is dual. The
holy(Leviticus 19/2) man is
nondual, attached
to the destiny of mankind like the destiny of its
Maker, linked to the past as well as the present and
the future, to the local as well as the infinite. So
your task may be agonizing, but you cannot save
yourself from making it so, because you cannot love
the man of the present, if you do not love the man
of the past, whoever he may be. Let's reformulate
the world into the Whole ! We
will be for long in great need of keeping real
faith from returning to religion, ideology,
politics, ethics, which are always saturated with
the system and its categories always skillful at
having justifications. We cannot be like religion,
a plant pot pretty but blossoming into the
fashions and interest of the moment. Humanitarian aid and
social actions do not necessarily make us
truer to Good. We will look for
the Sublime that go beyond fashions, habits,
received ideas, differences, judgments, because
all of beings and things can live together,
provided Good is reigning.
The quest for Good, which we have started, is
not an easy path. This path
enables us to go from life to Life (Rev of Arès
24/5) on rocky grounds, but the Father
has promised to wash our chafed feet (25/5),
hasn't He?
Lately
the telescopes Hubble and Spitzer permitted to see
Tayna a galaxy 13 light-years away.
Now, seeing something without living it makes nothing
but brains quiver, which is useless.
Telescopes are not existential ; my real piety
is existential.
It does not get me to see, but gets me to live the Universe
(Rev of Arès 12/4), the Spread
One (Rev of Arès ii/4).
Whenever I kneel or prostrate, I am not in submission,
I do so to be One with Earth, that the
Father has given me (Genesis 1/28-30), and
through Earth to be One with Infinity,
inseparable atoms of Which Earth and my self are.
With the exception of Father of
the Universe that He recommends to say thrice
daily and once nightly (12/5), the Father has never
set rules of prayer (Rev of Arès 25/6), but He
has taught the spirit of it, which he has called real
piety (35/6). Penitence will do to create the soul and change
the world, but the brothers and sisters of the small
remnant (24/1) regard Earth and Universe
as inseparable : The former strives to live away from the
latter, but the latter does not live without the former.
The small remnant want to have the Creation live
coherent in full blossom by restoring Eden in it, which
was much more than Adam and Eve's settlement
Whoever enters unto penitence
(8/6) frees himself from evil (30/11)
and shares in freeing the world from evil
(28/7), but should penitence
lack real piety, it might fail to find the
strong streams of Eden Rivers (35/2-3) and be
just a pond (30/2), an ethic. A penitential
ethic saves, indeed, but why not more than salvation? Why
not be made a God, merge in the Father like
Jésus (2/13)?
Real-life Good gives the strength of deliverance,
but the real-life Word adds the strength of
transfiguration to it. Men have to take the Word
out of the books so as to achieve it altogether.
Just as no regulation for prayer is found in the
Palestinian Gospel, no prayer regulation is found in the Word
of Arès. While religion whatever imposes the straitjackets
of regulations upon the faithful, the real piety
is free (10/10). An Arès
Pilgrim keeps his own piety under control. If
he is hesitant about the right way of praying, suggestions
may be made to him, but in the last resort he decides on
the texts, the way, the rate.
The penitent once freed and cleansed by The
Revelation of Arès has a freeflesh, mind and soul (17/7).
He embraces the Whole Who teaches him (16/11)
how he can achieve his salvation and
prepare the world's salvation. As the Whole is
very huge, he can only embrace a little of It every day,
but a little + a little = the Whole and the Whole and the
believer are One.
The Teaching (Rev of Arès 16/11-14) restored in
Arès calls on man to empty of his lethal materialistic
purposes and gradually fill the gaps in him with Life
(24/8), the Life previous to sin,
How ? Through penitence.
Being penitent means loving
unconditionally, forgiving offenses, making peace,
being spiritually intelligent (32/5) and free
(10/10) from all prejudices about anybody. Being penitent
means climbing the Heights of Good (25/4).
This ascent, which the light rabab (lute,
xLvii/8) of real piety will accompany
daily, will go on from generation to generation (24/2)
until the Day of Happiness is back.
Penitence goes hand in hand with real piety.
How can one pursue real piety well?
An Arès Pilgrim considers credos, great mass supplications
and glorifications, rituals, rosary meetings, etc, as
entirely unconnected with real faith. Real faith is based
on penitence, of which real piety is
the ideal daily reminder, which consists in having the Child's
lips utter the Word, in order that he or she achieves
it persistently. But penitents are nowhere near
similar, because sinners are all different, even
though they have the same objective in view. It is real
piety that makes the most diverse penitences
united behind their unique objective: Good, the
Creator's Design. This is why real piety
is flexible, its forms and contents are adjustable.
To make a Whole with the One in a
numberless variety of sinners, to make man's
inconsistencies the infinite richness of the self
or yourself (xxiv/1) very close
to the Universe, the seed (5/1) of
immortal universality lying from time immemorial within
the One that we men are with God, the Spread
one, the Infinite whether uncreated or created, the
Whole... This seemingly impossible task is fulfilled by real
piety, which enables each penitent to
give it a personal touch. It is the believer's
personalization or freedom of prayer that definitely turns
real piety away from religious prayer.
Religion has rigidified prayer and made
it a rehash or harping, even when nicely sung ; religion
has cleared prayer of its creative strength. God does not
respond to religious prayer just made of aspirations.
Religion has been colonized by Adam's dream (Rev
of Arès 2/1-5). Real piety decolonizes
man, frees him from the religious dream. Real piety
launches into the Word's fulfilment, it makes a
penitent a co-creator of the world; he loves,
forgives, uses his free intelligence,
concretely.
Every day each Arès Pilgrim picks the passage(s) of the
Word he or she needs and the way he or she utters
it, and it does not matter whether he prays at home in
prostrate position, or sitting in a bus, or having a walk,
or in bed.
He or she is not forbidden to beseech when afraid or
unwell or elate and glorify when cheerful, but he or she
loses himself or herself in emotional relief, which is
pointless, because
first, the Father knows what men need before they ask
him for help (Matthew 6/8), but he has made men
free (10/10) to be good or evil
and he as Creator considers potential rather than the
momentary situation, so he will not intervene as long as
he is aware that men are potentially unpredictable and
inclined to be evil again once the danger is
passed,
second, the Creator does not need to be glorified as an
idol, since he is our Father, but not our subjugator, and
we are his Children (Rev of Arès 13/5), but not
his subjugated ; he has his eternal Glory in
himself and wishes we might share it (37/9). third, the whole context of The Revelation of
Arès means that we get Grace from ourselves, but
not from the Father; we are aware that we get Power
from penitence and Knowledge (Rev of Arès
39/2) from real piety, and that both of
them will enable us to conquer Evil.
My penitence tugs at my hunger...
desire... pain... strainstrings ; it is a heavy task, but
thanks to real piety my penitence is
eased, because the Father talks to me. Religion mentions
the Word, but does not get him to talk in the
fullest sense of talk. Religion's great ceremonies and
strictly controlled numberless prayers have changed
nothing much in men's inner selves. Religion has not
awakened spiritual autonomy and inital goodness but in a
few special people's lives. So the Father sent out Messenger
Jesus back to mankind and went down himself in Arès
and called out, Change your lives! (30/11) How?
Very simply : What saves you is not what you believe in,
contrary to what Paul and the Churches which followed him
out (Romans 3/28, Ephesians 2/8-9) have
claimed, but whatever you do in order to beat sin,
even though you do not recognize the Father's Voice
(28/12). Arès Pilgrims' faith builds up on a
causality unlike the religious causality that claims that
only faith and obedience to religion save.
Any follower of The Revelation of Arès is a
basal Christian, a penitent that puts the Sermon
on the Mount into practice, but he or she is
likewise anybody with or without religion who thinks that
he or she has to grow good, because he or she is
an indivisible atom of humanity steeped in potentialities
and latencies of love, intelligence and happiness
capable of overcoming suffering and death just as
reference penitent Jesus overcame death. So man
creates his soul, which adds to his flesh
and mind (Rev of Arès 17/7). So man enables
himself to change the world (28/7).
An Arès Pilgrim of the small remnant adds
real piety to penitence, that is, God
reminding him that he has to achieve Good, but
even more, God in the sublime mystery of the Creator who
has not originated his own Being, but who is the Being out
of time (12/6) and who, how marvelous! says to man,
his Child, Why don't you stop being the mortal
derivative you have made of yourself (2/1-5) and
leave the phenomenal world and unite with the Being devoid
of origination and time.
Genesis uses parables
to express itself.
In the parable of the prohibited fruittree (Genesis
3/4-5) the serpent tells the woman, "God has said
that you would die if you ate that fruit, because he is
afraid that your eyes might open and you might turn into
gods
mastering the good and evil issue."
So Evil began with a lie.
Sin is a collective noun,
whatever form sin may take, which refers
to all of man's behaviors incompatbible with the Creator's
Design.Good is the
Design. Man of the Design (Rev of Arès 28/27) is
the name given any human who strives to give up sin
(39/6) and restore the image and
likeness (Genesis 1/26-27) of Good in
himself or herself.
In the Arès Word the noun sin is sometimes used
to mean particular forms of sin like the sin
of idolization (39/4), the worst of sins (29/5), Adam's
sins (28/8) and so on., but this is just to
characterize sin, but not to organize it into a
hierarchy. So that the sin of sins (38/2) does
not mean sin having grown into the strongest
inhibitor of Good or the strongest stimulator of
Evil, but it means sin on the day when none of
men tries to rid himself of it anymore.
Untruthfulness therefore is not a form of sin more
dangerous than other forms, but it is a form of sin
more worrying currently.
The Father, who is out of time (Rev of
Arès 12/6), considers all forms of sin as
equally harmful to spiritual life, to Good
therefore. But man, the Adam who went into
time (12/6) by the means of the creativeness
and freedom he had been given by the Father, by rejecting
the Design, by creating his own values, his own
design with which he is so dizzy that he dies from it (2/5),
has sinned in varied ways and frequencies. It was a
time when material greed ruled life and the most frequent
forms of sin were theft, murder,
enslaving, conquest, in short barbarity, Today
intellectual greed rules life, so it seems that
untruthfulness is growing into the most frequent form of sin..
It is still barbarity, but in the form of a rose sometimes
fragrant with a delicious scent.
If falsehood is random or impassioned, it is just error.
If falsehood is lucid, it is lying, untruthfulness. If
falsehood is random or impassioned it is just error.
Before Jesus spoke to me in 1974, I used to live in error.
Afterwards my error would have become lying, if I had not
quit the Church and set about changing my life (Rev
of Arès 30/11). Even though I am not a flawless
man, because I was born in a very sinful generation, I
have never been a dishonest man who lives on in
gratification of undeserved self-esteem. None of
untruthfulness is more pernicious than being dishonest
with oneself.
The most sacred thing Good builds is Truth.
In the verse: Truth is that the world has to change
(Rev of Arès 28/7), Truth does not point to a
state, but it points to a slow continuous quest. So God
considers Truth as an action, something that
begins, and then develops from generation to
generation (24/2-4), and finally changes into the
marvelous Day of the Father (31/8),
when the world is the garden that never withers
(xvi/17): Eden again. This means that
untruthfulness currently is the most frequent killer of
the future.
I remember what Mr François Hollande stated in the course
of the 2012 election campaign, because his words amounted
to caricatured untruthfulness. In a face-to-face TV
debate, he voiced his deepest contempt for Nicolas
Sarkozy; he promised that he would turn things around
completely, eradicate unemployment and France's
national debt, and so on. No man on earth could more
falsely have established himself as a genius and pour out
more unworkable plans; but we have to acknowledge that the
the result would be perfectly happy for the deceiver. Such
en example speaks of untruthfulness as an accepted
official way of success. He was elected President of the
Republic. So would our missionnaries be unheeded, because
they are straightforward, inversely?
This makes us wonder if untruthfulness or lying is the
expression of the Truth today, which is a
terrible point.
Lying and charming have been as one a very long time,
because untruthfulness is highly workable and polishable;
it gives a ring truer than truth, while true truth is
often unpleasant, unlikely, improbable and even sounds
like sheer falseness. This is what Erasmus meant when in
"Stultitiæ Laus" (Praise of Folly) he wrote : "Man's mind
is cut out to be more easily enticed by untruthfulness
than it may be by the truth." In the nineties a pilgrim
passing through Arès said to me, "Your mission has had
meagre results. Why have you been telling that Jesus
and God appeared and spoke to you? These are incredible
facts. You should publish The Revelation of Arès
whithout specifying its supernatural origin. Just let
every one of the readers guess who is its author, who may
be you, or a dream you have had, or the fruit of continual
thoughts of yours, or God for a few people that have a
clear understanding of the situation. Being silent about
the truth is not lying, so your apostolate will be less
infertile." I replied, "Letting others tell lies to
themselves is sheer lying. Why, Jesus in his transfigured
body appeared and spoke to me and the Maker shrank to the
size of a big nail (Rec of Arès ii/21) to speak
to me and I should hide that extraordinary supernatural
events, that are Messages all on their own?"
If the is a problem of untruthfulness, I do not think that
it lies in the choice between distorted truth, lying made
likely, a lie which "says the truth". The problem lies in
the drowning of the mind by untruthfulness, which has
flooded the world. The mind drowning in untruthfulness has
lost insight and gone just capable of skepticism or its
utmost form which is absolute incredulity or pyrrhonism.
This has fathered numberless harms like in the spiritual
life people's indifference in front of The Revelation
of Arès and our mission, or like in the democratic
life electors' fatalism in front of the candidates they
elect, by whose lying they are not taken all the same. All
people, whether electors or newly elected members, think,
"Let things go on as a routine, just as they are, rather
than fall into a state of chaos!" And we all are going on
blindly so to speak, in a cowardly way. I am aware that
the chaos would be better, in order toenable man to
reexamine all from every angle, stop untruthfulness, start
from the truth again, but I can only move on by trial and
error in the world's dullness. I have let the lies of the
candidates I elected in 2012 fly like vultures after
I had just made sure that they would not harm our mission.
Now I an imperfect man beat my breast, but I can't help
but sort things out myself in the lying world.
We have no absolute alternative to untruthfulness but
silence, although inaccuracy happens to be a satisfactory
alternative. It is common knowledge, for example,
that I wrote "The witness's accounts, notes and thoughts"
about The Book (see the 1987 and 1995 editions
of The Revelation of Arès, http://www.adira.net)
because my wife Christiane provided me with insistent
incentives for it, while I personally was quite willing to
remain silent about the supernatural, which I considered
as indescribable, a sort of physics we can't talk of with
words. Today I am only too pleased to have done it, even
though it is rather rough. At times inaccuracy is truth.
Which leads me to think that we are all liars by
inadequacy of the means to tell the truth and also by
fear, by scrupulousness, by lack of memory, etc. When
Isaiah related his spiritual calling (Isaiah 6/1-13),
he was obviously inaccurate or even inventive, because he
related an event impossible to depict. Whatever we relate,
we are always inaccurate, incomplete, because telling or
writing cannot give an account of acting or seeing. Every
day, when I tell sister Christiane, "I love you" I lie,
because no language can depict the emotion that she stirs
in my heart. I would need a thousand words to say "to
love". So I understand why hermits withdraw to the tops of
mountains in total silence, though I do not approve of
them, because they reprehensibly do not bother repeating
and repeating to human beings that they have to search
their spiritual deserts to find the Life
(Rev of Arès 24/4).
Nevertheless I find it regettable and harmful that learned
men say that "The fact of condemning lying without proper
judgment prevents us from studying it". Why study lying ?
It is as unnecessary as studying murder or theft.
Politicians and tradespeople are especially
untruthful, so much so that whatever they say has not been
considered as unquestionable a very long time. Deceitful
creativity is appalling. The possibility of lying that
only man among all of earthly living craatures has ever
had can't interest me and even it frightens me very often.
Man's propensity to tell lies makes a lot of people go
away from ideologists, advertising professionals,
religious men, in short glib talkers, but there are
talkers who talk to men without telling lies and even
speaking is their only way of warning people against
error. Such a talker I am.
For forty-two years persons have regularly said or written
to me, "You are a liar that experienced! You have ended up
believing in your own lies." I can only answer, "I tell
the Truth, which does not tally with your truth." Besides,
a lot of those who have had esteem for me have not
followed me. How many former friends of mine in the
seventies and eighties told me, "You sure enough have been
visited by Jesus and God in Arès, but this is no matter of
concern to me, at all"?
Then, every so often, I turn to the Father and tell him,
What a task terribly thankless you have given me! The Core
of my prophetic task is carpeted with implausibilities,
truths that culture casts out, because in the world there
are events with the label "Believe in it!" and events with
the label "Don't believe in it!", and because the real
liars have grown so skillful that untruthfulness is the
world's truth nowadays; all of the ears open to lying
trustfully, but they close to me suspiciously." Just as Dr
Freud observed it, I can only repeat relentlessly — without
flagging, says The Revelation of Arès (26/15)
— what I could not say once and for all, lest
silence should destroy the Father's Message to men since
1974. I repeat the Truth relentlessly, I never
fake it, I never tell it in paralipses. I live expecting
that I have to keep to my mission stubbornly until it is
successful with the help of my brothers and sisters.
The self is both personal
and unlimited, closely linked to both everyday life
and the absolute, to the the universal sacred and God
as mystery.
(Similarity between Shankara and the whole contextual
Light of the Word of Arès) Only your inner sacrifice is real ; you need
a soul, you need not daub the idols with blood
(Shankara and Revelation of Arès xiv/2).
Evil will never be overcome by
religion, politics, law, police, courts, armies. Good alone will overcome it, Good achieved
by each of My Children, Good that brings them
back to Me, to the Whole.
This is a brief summary of What The Revelation of
Arès says.
People, if anything a certain number of
them, think that The Revelation of Arès is
true, but they wonder what I am. They ask, "You've been
circulating and standing up for the Message, which Jesus
brought to you in 1974 and the Creator finished off in
1977, but what have you Michel Potay been since then?"
I answer, "I am a witness to the Father." I consider this
answer as sensibly modest and honest, because my personal
qualities are nothing more than modesty and honesty.
Some questioners raise an eyebrow ; they wonder whether I
as a modest man am a fake, they want to hear on my lips
the word they expect, so they say, "But doesn't The
Revelation of Arès call you prophet, it
does ?" I reply, "As it calls me so, it must be so." I
can't help but accept the designation, but I seldom use it
in the first person. Whenever the idea crosses my
mind that I am a prophet like Noah, Abraham, Moses,
Isaiah, Jesus, Muhammad, I am in a great embarrassment. I
do not regard the majestic imagery that gives cover to
those renowened men as something fit for me an ordinary
man, at all. And yet, that imagery is just a large gilded
overmantel above the world's big fireplace; just as I do,
they used to peel their patatoes, eat, scratch themselves,
have a pee, yawn, have toothache and that's not all.
Whenever someone asks me, "Why did God choose you Michel
Potay?" I answer, "I don't think that He chose me, since
I've never had the qualities you expect to see in a prophet.
I think that God realized that all of men are sinners, so
that any man whoever is just what He needed." He wrote the
names of all human beings on little papers, put them in a
great hat and drew lots. I was the poor winner.
Thereupon I cannot deny that I have learned what
binds up the Child in the Father, what
makes both of them One, which has been unlearned
by our religions which have falsely regarded the Father as
a judge and man as one subject to trial. I can't deny that
I am the only witness to the Sanctity,
the Might and the Light, that every
one of humans will be able to share again. I can't deny
that I am the Father's only frenchspeaking witness
whose name is going to get over space and time until the Day
when there is no more daylight or nightdark, when the
Light covers everything permanently, when the earth
gives out all the ashes in forms of transfigured humans.
Until then my name may appear in some modest dictionary,
unless the world will stubbornly be rejecting the Call
to change into Good (Rev of Arès 28/7) or be
considering me as a lunatic, so that thousands of
thousands of millions of hollow white looks of
specters will be beseeching the Father
when He comes down to visit His Barns (Rev of Arès
31/8-11).
The world will not owe to me anything that is going to
happen from 1974 to the Day of the great Change,
because I do nothing but convey the Message I
received. The world will owe to mankind the success
or the failure of the Call of Arès. The Arès
Pilgrims are the few that listen to me and love me. The
others, many of them, listen to me and go their own ways
or mock me or attack me scathingly. As for the huge
mankind, it ignores me for the time being. People will
probably publish articles or books or expatiate upon me,
but in what ways? In all truth? In legendary terms?
With a view to claim that I have understood nothing about
what I saw and heard in Arès? One way or another, I am a
nuisance — to say the least, this makes me a prophet
really — I call into question the routine people religious
as well as atheistic, their interpretations "sacred" or
sacrilegious. I disagree with all of them, since my own
interpretation is the only one worth considering : Mikal's
word is My Word (Rev of Arès i/12).
The Breath of The Revelation of Arès
is quite different from all that men can listen to or read
in our apostolic area (Rev of Arès 5/5-7). One
has to go back to the days of Shankara* to find the man
that echoed it last most strongly, except that he was a
young prophet whereas I am an old one, he was indifferent
to the world, whereas God asks me to immerse myself in it,
he did not address the emotional world whereas I address
it, he lived in a mental territory which the Father has
not allotted to our mission. Shankara is nonduality's
master: he sees no separation between the being, that is,
everyone of us is, and the Whole. This is
obvious in The Revelation of Arès : Be One within
Yourself! (xxiv/1) Go out to the place... where your
hand has twenty fingers like the queue of the sun...
where iron is boiling in your hand... in the worlds
where the fish turn around and around in My Water
(vi/1-3). I too conflict with all the
brahmana of religions, politics, media, learned societies,
law, etc. who have made themselves specialists of the
"truth" which they force on mankind. The cause of this is
very simple: I am deliverance just as The Revelation
of Arès is, whereas they are reclusion, reclusion
into their ideas, law, dogmae, principles. I am and
probably will be even more disparaged, sometimes hated.
But it may also happen that they cannot remove every
historical trace of me, so they will remove me by erecting
a statue to me and putting it away far on top of one of
the glory shelves in order to rewrite my teaching quietly,
give a deceitful version of it. This is why I am very
anxious to gather the small remnant (Rev of Arès
24/1) together and well teach them., whill will
keep on circulating the Truth I have been put in
charge in accordance with its its great simplicity. I
believe that the small remnant will successfully
thwart the biases through which powers will misrepresent
my teaching and they will achieve the Purpose.
My teaching and the teaching of the small
remnant, co-witnesses to the Father by
affinity, whom I have been taking along, is neither
religious nor philosophical. Just as The Revelation
of Arès is, it is spiritual, which means that it
calls the immortal soul(Rev of Arès 4/5-6,
17/3) into existence through penitence among
believers as well as non-believers, for Good achieved
is stronger than religion and philosophy. The soul both
outlives death in the human who created it and aggregates
in the Force which will change the world
into Good (28/7). The soul is the
unconquerable winner over evil and is created by penitence
(30/11), the redemptive bouquet of love,
forgiveness, peace, spiritual free
intelligence, the constructive penitence
which was already taght by the Sermon on the Mount
(Matthew ch.5 to 7) 2,000 years ago, the
constructive penitence on which I am forever
adamant and the small remnant will forever be
adamant. Penitence is the habitus that The
Revelation of Arès gives us; it aims to make us
able to reach extreme life, that it calls Life.
I wrote what I believed in and taught and I entitled it
"What We Believe, What We Do Not Believe" ("The Arès
Pilgrim" 1991-1992, also an appendix in The
Revelation of Arès's 1995 bilingual edition,see
http://www.adira.net). That writing was composed in a
hurry like a testimony on the eve of a surgery I was
unsure if I could survive, so it is rather a muddled
account, but I have left it as it was, so it has kept
spontaneity.
Spiritual progress as a whole raises a problem: Ignorance,
which is widely intentional, of What God said in Arès is
ignorant of itself and its erroneous concepts have pride
of place under the pretext of reason (Rev of Arès
26/3) and science (1/3). Man is made of flesh,
mind and soul (17/7), whenever the latter is in
existence, three elements which sin has parted and
scattered and which we Arès Pilgrims, as we are shattered
humans too, are called on to gather together and rebuild
man's infinitude with the Whole through penitence.
We are a long way beyond all that religion suggests
to man. InThe Revelation of Arès there
is no social, religious, political way to resolve evil ;
it does not, so I do not advocate any system or way of
life. All the systems or ways of life are good, provided
there is love (7/5) in them and the law of
rats (xix/24) is banned from them. Penitence
builds man up in his entirety with humanity, nature,
universe again, so that man may become the Child
of the Iniverse of the Father of the
Universe (12/4) again.
Adam went emancipated from the Father (Rev of
Arès 2/1-5) through the very means that the Father
had endowed him, and so made himself dual, that is, at
once an image and likeness of the Father and a
thinking animal king of the world. The Revelation of
Arès speaks of the shock wave that has kept
Genesitic Adam broken by specified names as sin,
noise, night lion, etc., and speaks of
the Whole that man can restore himself to by the
specific name Core of the Cores (xxxiv/6). How
can man restore himself to it? Through penitence, but
just as everything moves in the universe penitence
will move and grow. Penitence of penitences will
be the most perfect practice of love, forgiveness,
peace, spiritual free intelligence.
Human being will not reach that stage until generations
(Rév d'Arès 24/2). But by now all I say and the small
remnant say while on prophetic duty boils down to penitence.
As I am a man in his flesh, I at intervals sink
into the darkness of the current affairs and I express my
definite opinion about the news, but it is just like a
vein or artery of mine, my bleeding. It is my blood
which advisedly or ill-advisedly flows along with
the blood of the human herd in which I belong and with
which I am chained to the wall of a famous cave, where I
perceive the world's events only like shadows on the
inside surface (Plato, The Republic, Book VII). But, if
the Core can be reached, I inevitably end up
percieving the True (xxxiv/1-4) by praying
and refraining from speaking by myself(39/2).
What the Father says to us is quite simple: No driving
ideology, no dogma, no law, no leader, no plan but goodness,
penitence and real piety(36/19). The
world's happiness will never result from lucky speeches,
even though they were my own words, but it will follow on
from the Word achieved by every one of human
beings, who is, whether lucidly or not, an atom of the Whole.
Do not strive to combine legibility and exactness, because
words are always inadequate. Combine life and love so
as to find Life (24/5).
Socrates : "Athenians, I love you,
but I will abide by God rather than you and I ask you not
to expect me to stop teaching, as long as I keep
breathing. To each of you I will keep saying, 'How can you a
very good citizen of the nation most renowned for wisdom be
shameless about taking great care to accumulate as much wealth
as you can and rise to high social success, while you are
staying indifferent to reason, to the truth, to your soul that
you should continuously improve ?'" (Plato, Apology).
I attest that I was given the Word in
Arès, France,
but It will never change the world if I ever fail to change my life.
Hundred thirty died of wanton murders in Paris.
Politics forever anxious to be proved useful, considered the
killers as warriors and called their killing warfare
On top of 1,666, which is the average number of deaths by day in
France, there were 130, so 1796 died on November 13.
What sufferings and drama do "normal" 1,666 people die of, daily
in France? They die of sin, but neither politics nor
news conjure up visions of it. News lives on people's
anxious curiosity, which is the leek newsmen grow carefully in the
world's huge field of scribbling leeks. Under these conditions no
one can tell me how many fellow countrymen think that it is time
for man to rise to rekindle spiritual intelligence (Rev of
Arès 35/5), give up the lex talionis (Exodus 21/23-25)
which is just a book by man (Rev of Arès 16/12, 35/12)
but not a Word of the Father, and grow in stature through the idea
that peace, even though it is indeed hard to make when it is
merciful, is far more necessary than war, which is just a
slaughter between fellow creatures and has never solved any
problem. Oh! I am aware that the men that sing of forgiveness and
peace are few and far between. I can however hear a few people
calling on men to stop homicidal madness. I would rather say rage
than madness, because the enraged are not mad. They are well aware
of what they want, both being alarming and proving protective.
All
of the authoritarian ideologies impose their laws upon me, which
relativly protect me from the wicked, indeed, but keep me
from being absolutely free (Rev of Arès 10/10) to regain
the matchless creative power, that free love of the neighbor,
free forgiveness of offenses, free complete peace with
all men and free soul intelligence (32/5) make
up all together. In order that my descendants will regain them, I
have to be an apostle and struggle to harvest penitents.
All of the endless failures of the sinful world like
wars, revolutions and even laws, — pestilent rats(Rev
of Arès xix/24) disguised as magi —,
generate anxiety, which hampers thinking and makes
human beings obedient to their enemies as well as their
protectors, whether religious or political. Now, anxiety is in
contradiction to freedom and contradiction makes people as if they
were fogbound. The government have taken advantage of the fogbound
French thinking — la médecine enseigne que l'incapacité d'analyse
dure trois jours après une vive émotion — to declare the state of
emergency instead of stopping the never-ending revenge (29/9)
by withdrawing the air strength from the Middle East where it has
nothing to do but add tombs to tombs and have the wind of hate
strengthen without even defending us.
The state of emergency will never stop murders similar to those
committed in Paris: "Charlie Hebdo" on January 7, following which
the Police's heightened attention would not prevent the "Bataclan"
and some café terraces on November 13, because a state of
emergency is just based on the foreseeable future, while terrorism
is unforeseeable, as it always the devil leaping out from the
sewer anywhere anytime. Why thrill the devil?
Arthur Koestler, who wrote "Darkness at Noon" (Le Zéro et
l'Infini), thought that one alternative only had forged the
unbroken chain of history ever since antiquity: "Anybody who
is against the pressure, whether religous or political, has
to wage war or revolution. Anybody who does not want war or
revolution stops being against and agree to the pressure." But in
Arès, France, the Creator reminds men that there is a third path:
Anybody who stands up, stops trembling and puts on the
penitent's (Rev of Arès 30/11, 35/2, 37/3) new coat (1/1) turns
from Adam as an animal (2/1-5) into Adam
as the one that sucks the Creator's Strength
to get strength (xii/5). The latter is Adam
that will change the world (28/7) into Good. The
number of generations whom that fortunate change will
take is to be far lower than the great number of generations that
have lived until now.
I am not a leader (Rev of Arès 16/1) and, even though I
am subjected to them, I do not acknowledge any people as leaders,
not even the Father of The Universe (12/4), because I
am His Child (13/5), His image and likeness
(Genesis 1/26). Stuck onto Him I am Nature, as Spinoza
said, or Energy, as Einstein said, so that I am something
immortal. We the brothers and sisters of the small remnant and I
make an active working conviction. We have just begun to change
the world (Rév d'Arès 28/7) in changing ourselves
and we are well aware that the huge world around us is not to change
in 2016, but at least we can wish him a rageless new year.
