Truth is uncountable: What can I say to raise awareness?
While working hard to prepare the 50th
anniversary edition of The Arès Revelation planned in
2024, I once more wanted briefly to depict the supernatural
events just as I had experienced them in Arès in 1974 and 1977,
and while respecting the truth as much as I can to write
for a world which has almost completely stopped reading and
which can hardly agreed on a transcendental testimony, even
though very heartfelt, because their capability of
accepting it is not contingent on a sincere story, but it is so
on the challenges brought about by the meaning of the testimony.
Everybody has noticed that passionately neutral
items about unexpected facts, which the livings discuss very
often as bodies of materialism, as refusers and sometimes as
malicious tongues, seldom as interested persons, and very seldom
as persons that make a commitment. The Revelation of Arès raises very various theses. As
soon as some items like the supernatural are tackled, intelligence
has considerable difficulties thinking normally, because
natural personal trends, individual interests, habits, the
unverifiable, and so on, strain reason.
All turns tricky and contentious when the reality of a Power
that allegedly manages the Universe (12/4) should be
explored. Passions are stronger then, because that which is
involved is not knowledge, but it is life itself. If
someone has to acknowledge, to conclude a reading, that he
or she might be in position of endorsing an authority other than
that of materialistic physics or popular thinking or basic
psychology, he or she may be in position of questioning himself
or herself as a stand-alone being.
Countless are the human beings that consider that being free to
think and take decisions about anything in life is fundamental.
Their deep self might feels like it is being attacked not
regarding a potential search for truth, but regarding the
defense of freedom of thought, the right of free expression of
it, and the right to choose destiny.
It is not surprising then that The Revelation of Arès
causes responses which range from widespread indifférence to
mockery, disdain and even violence. A materialist considers that
looking for distant echoes of extraterrestrial lives is
more "scientific" or reasonable than reading a Message
having come from the Universe, but all over considers
that it does not result in an existential question about
humanity. Inversely, if you do not object to realize that God
exists— not the God of religion, but the Life (38/5) spread
(ii/4) over infinity—, together surrounds
us and lives in our depths, you may run the risk of a great
inner disruption. Preconceptions, passions, the search for peace
of mind, and so on, prevent from accepting the truth
particularly whenever it calls the approach of All into
question.
While rewriting all the annotations for the fiftieth anniversary
edition of The Revelation of Arès I have been
clear about not being seen as a religion as well as not delving
into developments on God's nature. What I have written
deals with the need of love, forgiveness,
peace, spiritual intelligence and freedom
from all prejudices, that is, the need of that which The
Revelation of Arès calls penitence, and above all
the courage to search beyond the 'patency', that is, to embrace
metaphysicss.
____________________________________
In front of the widespread indifference which
the apostles of The Revelation of Arès face and in
front of the censorship by the social networks how can we
present an event like the Arès event?
We do not know, because that which has been seen and heard is One
as the Substance of Substances(xxxiv/6),
but it is innumerable as a display, because the lines that
had been thought along by the Witness are seldom the
same that are thought along by his listeners or readers.
I have stayed aware of that untold problematic issue as long as I
have worked prepating the fiftieth anniversary edition of The
Revelation of Arès.
God expressed his views in 1974 and 1977 in France where freedom
of expression has been long legalized, but freedom of expression
means nothing more than the fact that speaking and editing are
free. Now, it is also necessary to give people possibilities to
embark on a continuous process of following what the event teaches
and that is certainly not going to be easy to achieve.
The freedom to tell a truth, whenever the truth annoyed the
received opinion, was historically just threatened by the power of
the State and the settled authorities. Today the freedom of
telling the truth is hijacked by two opposing shifts. On a side in
the name of freedom of expression people can attend the most
extreme expressions of interest, disregard or rejection, and on
another side people still in the name of freedom of expression
note counterpoints inspired by ideological trends opposite or even
very conflic-ting, which are spread by the dominant mentality that
strives to impose its concept of that which is allowed to be told
and that which should be silenced.
The animosity against The Revelation of Arès is not
coming from some authorities or institutions who identify
themwelves formally, but rather from groups or collatérals
instutions which proceed by intimi-dation or preclusion hard to
overcome.
The only boon of freedom of expressiont is to
enrich diversity of opinion barring juridictionally offending
opinion, but freedom of expression does not ensure that a
universal message can easily emerge from the shadows. Some people
can be confident Michel Potay really is the receptacle of a Divine
Word and support him strongly, of course, but other people retain
their right to oppose him, even if they act in bad faith. More
than a century went by until prophet Jesus' teaching
began changing a few behaviors in the world after
the crucifixion. We have to face adversity to defend our values as well as be
very patient.
For slightly lower than fifty years I have faced coertions and
intimidations of all kinds, but I have usually kept that adversity
inside and thought that my brothers were able on their own to find
the best manner to promote The Revelation of Arès while
being aware that it is very difficult in any case. I think that by
and large they have done the best they could and that they have
had limited results because they have lacked time and a lot of
missionaries on a one side and that on another there is a time for
everything in history. If you are referred to history you can see
a good lot of instances of latenesses between causes and effects.
An adversary debate can lead to a kind of spontaneous development
of the Word's meaning just if it is free, but contrary to what
many people think we have not gotten there yet; the right time is
not that far, notwithstanding. In the end, falsehoods and denials
are invariably modulated by the prism of opposing incapacitations.
We do not have access to the public medias (broadcasting,
television, and so on.), which all work according to the same
operating methods. In our fractured pluralistic societies non only
arguments cope with each other, but also dreams cope with each
other — just have a look at environmentalists, wokists, and so on!
—. You cannot watch presentations of streams of ideas either on
social networks. The media platforms that programmers choose are
linked to algorithms that put forward the messages most shared in
politics, trade, science, etc., which are often very
emotionally-charged particularly with anger, envy or set ideas.
This produces a distortion which sometimes makes The
Revelation of Arès baffling.
We are being faced to a dilemma. From all quarters in the
world politics makes laws against the resurgence of faith
when based solely on love. Hence we live in a censorious
society, because nowhere on earth does law belong on goodness,
forgiveness, benevolence, and so on. Everywhere law
is based on remuneration: such-and-such a fault deserves
such-and-such a punishment. I am thinking of Tocqueville's words,
"I had left you deal with the abuse of freedom and I find you out
under a despot's feet," But if the State fails to take
action, the desires for hegemony of the pressure groups in
conflict might well lead to mayhem. In short, flexibility is
reduced all around.
A good place to start, some think, is by seeing debates as
important, because it is the only good way to discuss and stand up
against each other on equal terms. But how can human beings
discuss 'Words' that all have allegedly come down from the
infinite Eon? Engaging mankind in spiritual debate cannot be the
solution; freedom of expression leads nowhere when there are
nothing but dominating beliefs.
A certain amount, a not very high one, of debating activity may be
part of the solution. Some associations have been trying
to initiate it on the Web. They usually are users of social
networks, they are certain to have some role to play in the search
for making concepts immediate, which were considered to be distant
previously. An indispensable provision for this would be to forget
about rivalry, which currently is not taken into consideration.
There is no freedom of expression whenever the Word that each
religion or subreligion reveres is imperatively willing to rule.
It is then necessary concurrently to grant other kinds of social
exchanges. Freedom of expression, I have ceaselessly retold, is
the problem, but is the solution as well, on the condition that
the debate is never distorted by cheating. In short, freedom
happens to result in excessive noise, but also is the
sole good means of preventing that very excess.
How can we complete Genesis and then quit it with anything but
slowness and progressivity? How can we quit the cave (just see
Plato) to the walls of which Adam chained himself by way
of anything but by groping very humbly? Among all the gross
warpings of the conditions of life that man has inflicted on
himself time (Rev of Arès 12/6) attracts
attention on himself. Time has made every change
slow and ensured that anything true and effective never comes to
man's mind fast. We grope and fumble while ascending to Good.Good has no pinnacle, because it has been unattainable
so far, it is the Life, the Father, the Saint,
which are that faraway. It is unreachable Good, because
it never stops ascending, sprawling, spreading(ii/4)
over time, but never comes close to paroxysm, as it has no
paroxystic potential. Good on Earth as it is is that
which is never normally sold, never derives from law, or from ways
of life, it is that which cannot be given by religion, or by
politics, or by morals. Good should always be a basic
need for humans just as it is an eternal basic need for the Father.Good is the boundless immeasurable Quality which is
indescribable and which makes all that takes place after death is
completely unknown and ineffable: the reports of heaven or hell in
the Kuran are nothing but tales for children. It is unlimited
immeasurable Good that makes God, as the continuous
Reactor of Good, is simultaneously the Eternal Fugitive
and Eternal Life.
Just as a learned man is a man that likes and has the time to
learn, an exponantial spiritual man is the man that is willing to
move outside his specific field of love, that
which is creative. Good is no more that which is
intended for internal use in the minimal loving being's
life, but it is absolute Good intended for external use
in the maximal loving being's life.
Man can grow into an active being in global creation, a cocreator
in the supreme eternal sense. In the materialistic
intellectual sense man at the same time or completely
is just a kind of agnostic being.
An agnostic says, "Creation may be seen as the integration of time
duration into chaos... The Bible can be taken this way, because it
mentions it in undertones: Earth was shapeless and empty,
tenebrae flew over abysses (chaos of matter) and
God's Spirit was hovering above waters (the duration that
creates order) (Genesis 1/2). The beginning is possible
because there was an evening and a morning, the first day
(Genesis 1/4). The next day will be the second day, and the
day after will be the third day, and so on, for to create is to
make things follow one another" (Emmanuel in "A comment of Genesis").
Joseph ben Caiaphas known simply as
Caiaphas (Matthew 26/57-67, 27/1-2, Mark 14/63-65, 15/1, Luke
22/66-71) did not bring anything original in the world. He
continually comes to life again; among all the devastating
people in society he is the one that convicts ; he will
not disappear as long as the world fails to change
(Rev of Arès 28/7).
Caiaphas questioned Jesus saying,
"Are you the Christ, the Blessed One's son?" Jesus
replied, "I am and you will see the Son of Man seated at
the right hand of the Power and coming with the clouds of
Heaven." At that Caiaphas tore his garments and cried out,
"What further need do we have of witnesses? You have heard
the blasphemy!" They all condemned him as deserving to die
(Mark 14/61-64).
Those condamners were sincere, and therein
lay the dramatic antilogy. As Jews and gardians of heir religion
they had long understood that Jesus was going to unfetter it,
make faith free provided it would be lived through the Sermon
on the Mount (Matthew ch. 5 to 7). We Arès Pilgrims too
have Caiaphases, whom penitence constains us to love,
forgive, let free to act (Rev of Arès
10/10) until the dawn (xxxv/7) of the Day
appears when we will make them find out that love is intelligence
(32/5) and that law is just never-ending complacent endless
vengeance (27/9).
____________________________________
Our mission urges the world to move from
religious dogmata, or rationalistic, philosophic, scientific law,
or general incredulity, or together triliterally, to love,
so that we have a huge triplice of detractors, many of them
incline to make us disappear. There is only a very small trace of
unblinking mankind, whom we can persuade to follow us: the
ripe wheat ears.
In public debates two sorts of speech always conflict with each
other, that of accusers and that of defendants. Defendants
are always minority. The accusers have got the widespread majority
"reason" of the law of rats (Rev of Arès xix/24) and
they never run short of arguments. So Justice is inevitably
sluggish.
How long lasted Adam's sacred Fire before he
put on sin(Rev of Arès 2/1-5, vii/6-13) as a
candle-snuffer hat and got out of Éden ? Nobody knows, because the
ancient biblicists only wrote summaries. The Bible as a whole,
however, drives us to guess that Adam was a thinking
animal again and his life expectancy drew in and became as short
as his lifetime before his spiritual creation, but was given
possibility of being redeemed. Ipso facto, the Creation or
Spiritualization of man has resumed, although slowly and
interspersedly, on the momentum of the initial Power.
The improvement of biological life is slow to the point of being
unseen, because biological life has turned too short and humans
—with a few exceptions—cannot experience it. Improvement
nevertheless has been having an impact on all areas of society
ever for millenia, because man, although resistant to the Maker's
Design, is the only living being on earth who has never
stopped observing himself, being amazed at himself, questioning
himself about his future, because he has so far remained his own
co-creator unknowingly (Genesis 1/26-27). With a very
lazy crawling every micro-aspect of the way man little by little
has found (Rev of Arès 24/5) all that ancestor Adam
had denied to be.
A short while ago I was pondering over a few
pictures of the archæological remains of Khaybar in Arabia :
human beings used to live there millenia ago and I was thinking of
the time people need to come back from Adam's fall days.
What to God would have been the point of coming down to speak to
men before 1974-1977, since men do not listen to Him? There would
have been no point, I guess, as long as man sees no point in
dealing with anything apart from techniques and philosophies; man
will have to have himself made headway. We have to get human
beings out of their invariability.
Adam is his old self previous to his spiritual creation again, he
has turned unaware of that which links him to the primordial Aeon
but through the metaphysical bridge. Man is now the very content
of his own reason to exist, his own conscience, his relation to
the unknown. For the time being he can just guess things, but
metaphysics is not still, it is moving guess, today slow, tomorrow
prompt if we succeed in awakening human being's spiritual
curiosity. The Father has given us Arès Pilgrims the job of
inducing human beings to search the invisible, rising towards Life
(Rev of Arès 24/3-5) and feeling Its reality.
Can anyone take an interest in one's divine origins once one has
lost all recollection of them or frozen them? Can Caiaphas
understand anything about Jesus, from whom a metaphysical gulf
separates, as long as he is a commonplace narrow-minded Caiaphas?
As spirital as skillful engraver Albrecht Dürer has drawn Caiaphas
with a conservative's silly profile, the guards with bully faces,
Jesus with an evolutionist's tragic features. Something virtually
insuperable could not but make and keep those men parted two
millenia ago. What today keeps us parted company with our
detractors is still insuperable, though somewhat less, which makes
meetings feasible, but we will need much patience all
the same.
Religion is shortsighted. Religion promises
eternal paradise to all individuals that follow its dogmata and
rules. It promises others eternal hell. Religion is unaware of the
man's necessary need of expansion in the ever-expanding Universe
and therefore teaches no truth but rigid illusion. Religion does
not realize that man is naturally expansive.
Spiritual life, that is The Revelation of Arès's topic,
is farsighted ; it considers individuals as landmarks ever out of
their depths along the very long path (Rev of Arès
xii/5) that the race has to travel without
stopping. God's Children (13/5) grow, it is their
inevitable fate, which no one can stop without risking the loss of
their mental stability. It is their whole community during the
entire life of their race that we have to unbind until
God's Day! Not the ant torturable and subjected to the
inexorable criminality of its species through its judges, but the
judgeless united ant-hill. Arès Pilgrims' prophetic function has
nothing to do with religion. Each one of us holds eight billion
human beings.
"O miseras hominum mentes (Unfortunate human spirits), O pectra
cæca (o blind heart), qualibus in tenebris vitæ (in what kind of
darkness of life), quantisque periclis degitur (and through how
many hazards does) hoc ævi quodcumque est (that period of time,
whatever, go by) !" (Lucrecius, "De natura rerum", On the nature
of things). After Adam's fall life turns into wretchedness,
achieves none of undertaking, always ends up in death. The soul
is the lifebelt that the loving Father has
planned to save penitents, who are not only the men that
do good, but likewise who climb the path to
transcendence.
The Caiaphases, though they look after the Light
whithout finding it ever, struggle and die as do all of those whom
they condemn. The ancient leaders said, "Panem et
circenses (bread and circuses)!" because they saw the
superfluousness of life well, though they were unaware that it was
due to sin, which clears human beings of their Edenic
genius, a few traces of which fortunately are left, at random, in
a few people on earth. Human life goes by between wishes and
failures.
There are Caiaphases in a number of forms throughout. Jesus is not
the only man to be found guilty by those Caiaphases. They perch
the defendants on their own porcupine backs, scold them, then
articulate punishments ! Jesus used to speak to any sinner lovingly,"Go and sin no more!" But they never absolve a man that
defies their ideas. They sit on the metal grating which shuts the
dungeons into which they have pushed down love. But we
will make them think things over one by one carefully, then stand
up, then lift the grating up, and then throw a rope and pull up love
to Earth's surface.
Not only the Arès Pilgrims are going to reinstall love
under the sun; all of human beings, Caiaphas included, will do so.

faint Life or Earthling's torpidity
I have seen and heard Life (24/3-5,
25/3, 38/5, xix/26) in 1974 and 1977, whereas I
was not even trying to retrieve It, so that
It has ended up coming into me, and yet I have not deserved It
more than any other human being. Now It lies inside me for Love
and It whispers there unremittingly.
When I awake in the morning Life tells me, "I
am inside you, so you have to make men realize that I am
inside them." However, I am no more than a dull-whitted rhinoceros
with a flat low forehead, which Truth cannot make
higher or domed, because Truth remains out of Earth
that I Adam's son (Rev of Arès vii/8/16)
have chased it from. I get out of bed and from then until
the night I attend to that task, which has become very
laborious, because it has for long grown unnatural.
What am I? An human animal and what is more an old man in a bad
way. Where is my soul? Lifehas just put Its Foot (Rev
of Arès i/19, xxii/10, xLii/22)
in my flesh tower.
It will take more than four generations (24/2) so
that Its Leg, Its Knee, and then Its
Chest, Its Arms, and then Its Head move
into It. In the world unchanged what might be
known (Rev of Arès 28/7) is lost in questions still
unanswered. I know and frequently forget about what I know. It
is the grief suffered by antilogy. And yet I can change
the world (28/7)!
____________________________________
The very great hardship the Child (Rev of
Arès 13/5) suffers to come back to the Father (12/4)
lies in the langage. God speaks, but what sort of lnguage? Our
poor human word. His Word is either abbreviation or disconcerting
synonymy. — life and Life —, and I am but a
stammerer due to lack of the right words and adequate spiritual intelligence
(Rev of Arès 32/5).
I am not God, yet I am God's embodiment like any human being on
earth. This antithesis stupefies me as a rhinoceros. God is alive
everywhere, although indistinctly alive, and pursues an Intention,
which The Revelation of Arès proves, and which is
utterly different from all that I had believed before 1974 was
God's truths and designs. However, even a long time after
1974 my life is still diverging from Life, because I am
a stupid minute animal boxed in its hide whereas Life is
capitally spread out, subtle and studded with stars very
much farther than what I think is an infinite boundary. Our
freedoms are equal on scientific scales, but they are discordant
on angels' assay balance, which gets me into stupor. Real
freedoms, but not on the same reference system.
Being no God while being incarnate God is the dilemma inside which
human beings have been floundering for millennia, from which only
penitence within the meaning of The Revelation of
Arès can get them out.
The Christianity-system has instituted Jesus as God incarnate
wrapped up in Trinity along with tha Holy Spirit and Father. That
is an abridgement catechistically fit for attracting pagans and
keep basic Christians silent, but that is a heavy iron gate hardly
half-opened which leaves the main part of the Light out.
In point of fact, The Revelation of Arès says that God
made Jesus a God (Rev of Arès 2/13, 32/2) meaning that
Jesus is the pattern of penitents, whoever, whether
lone or countless, who get back the image and likeness(Genesis
1/26) of Life. Not the numbers make humanity but
the being makes it, whether one (xxiv/1) or
eight billion (human population on November 14, 2022). Each accomplished
penitent (35/6) gets back to the state of Being or
else life as the texture of Life.
A penitent strives to be a human being as sinless as
possible, practice love of the neighbor, forgiveness of
offenses, peace, spiritual intelligence free
from all prejudices. The Word of Arès calls it climbing the
path to the Heights considering the Heights
constitute the state of penitence under the Light (Rev
of Arès 2/13).
Any human being, whoever, potentially is God or Life
incarnate. This is never a state of brilliant consciousness among
physical earthlings. This for the time being is is just a state of
happy torpidity, but a state of trust, which makes the soul
sprout.
By being penitent you find other ways of taking on
Life, unexpected and sometimes impervious to
consciousness. A penitent should be aware of it. His or
her penitence or ascension yields a ripple
effect which like the Wind may fell harmful poisonous
trees unknowingly. For want of adequate words I call that ripple
effect grace. I personally think that grace is caused equally by penitents
and by... God and even rather than God. For instance Tamerlan or
Adolf Hitler might have been touched by the Wind of
Jesus, Muhamad or Francis of Assisi, so that those tyrants
unwillingly are One with us. Hence it is obvious that we
have to love and forget even our enemies (Matthiew
5/44). There are vile deeds, renouncements, horrors, to which we are
averse, but which we share, because they are human. Let's not
forget that suffering or being victimized does not cancel the fact
of sharing. Life shares out sins as well,
since It laments over them like a widow shares the death of the
man whose burial she attends. Evil once created by Adam
is a problem, as it is made of the common burning of the great
variety of woods, those on Earth and those in the Universe.
So the fundamental lesson The Revelation of Arès gives
men is the most beautiful Fire ever seen. God and man are not Light and dark. The dark
is where specters end up, but even though all
of men do not end up as specters, they all go through
torpidity.

God and/or the space-time
There are a lot of atheists in many ways;
most of them experience acute sickness of evidence—no evidence
of God, therefore no God— or they chase away the idea of God
that disturbs them like flies from their noses. There are a lot
of believers as well, who are androids that consider God as the
Superandroid that reigns, orders, judges, listens to, speaks,
loves, loathes, rescues, rewards or punishes
But God is completely different. He is a boundless interlace of
Rivers (Rev of Arès 35/2-3) the Water (18/5,
20/1-7, 23/5, i/13-14, etc.) of which streams throughout
everything : the immeasurable infinite as well as infinitesimal
cells.
"The world seems to be hardly any older than the art of creating
a different world," Paul Valéry wrote about cosmogony. Valéry
realized that men were still unaware of almost all... and God
then!
Human masses have no sense of Wholeness Wholeness, the key
of which a few scholars now usually overlooked have foreseen in
the 20th century, that is, the expansion of the Universe,
that very Universe the Father of which has
made himself known (Rev of Arès 12/4). The Univers
is much more than the Existent Whole : stars, galaxies, black
holes, planets, matter, light, rays, nature, the living, and so
on. The Universe is made of all that is created and at
the same time of all that creates (xxii/12). If you
remove a galaxy from the Universe, you can see that
the elimination of it does not make the Universe
narrower. The Universe keeps its integrity, said
Einstein, because the Universe is not the whole of the
physical things it holds together and the phenomena that come up
there. The Universe is the space-time well
thought-out.
The Father of the Universe is the Father or the Reason
of the space-time.
So the Universe, the Father
of which is our Father, the Cause ou Reason of
everything, is malleable, flexible, dynamic, therefore always
built-up again (Rev of Arès 12/4). The space-time is a
container which continuously forges and forms its contents,
the appearances, disappearances, motions and experiences of which
it responds nonstop.
Moreover, Einstein within the scope of general relativity has
worked out that the Universe is the space-time, a kind of
infinite, outlineless, bottomless bag permanently reformed.
The space-time has its own history, which is much more than the
history of stars, galaxies, black holes, planets history.
Whenever a man falls free he does not feel his own weight. This
fact led Einstein to understand gravitation in a way different
from Newton's way. As Galileo had well seen that all bodies
whatever, whether heavy or light, fall at a same speed, Einstein
understood that gravitation cancels gravitation in a way and
decreed equivalence principle, which establishes that acceleration
and gravitation are equivalent — that is indistinguishable
locally —. Hence Einstein's famous equation, which describes
gravitation :
You do not have to be rocket
mathematician to understand by looking quickly at the picture
above, that everything is curved in the space-time, and that there
are constants like G, the gravity (medium value of gravity
acceleration at a given point), or the cosmologic constant (a kind
of antigravity), and that there is dynamic expansion finally. The
space-time is evolving, but the cosmologic constant acts as
antigravity and is therefore compensatory, so that it permits the
space-time, God therefore (I'll come back to that in a moment), to
be indefinitely stable.
According to Einstein again, the space-time does not move; only
its contents move inside it. According to Russian mathematician
Friedmann and Belgian mathematician Lemaître the space-time is
expanding, the space-time has got dynamics of its own.
American scholars have shown that through a Doppler
effect—coloured blue when they come near but coloured red when
they withdraw — it seems that the galaxies go away from us, and
they have called that seeming movement away "the flight of
galaxies". Lemaître, who worked out in staying based on Einstein's
general relativity, said, "Wrong! Galaxies are not on the
run; they are motionless, but the space is swelling, expanding.
This is Universe expansion."The redness does
not originate from a removal, but from a swelling; the space-time
is dynamic.
In other words, God is dynamic. Life is coincidental to
speace-time and, as a result, it remains unknown whether the
space-time is God or God is the space-time, and whether they
constitute a composite unanalyzable or not, because of man's sinful
weak intellect. This mystery jackets The Book
(second part of The Revelation of Arès) tangibly;
The One That talks is not a Person, He is a Power. That
Power is Sanctity (12/4) too, so It can do
nothing but beget Good and Love. Out of Love
the Father gives His Child (13/5) freedom, but
man will use freedom to reject the Father's Design and
create his own life system, which unfortunately is as unfair and
lethal as fair and vitalizing, which is a terrible disjunctive
situation, that the Father, Life, God, the Eternal,
whatever you call Him, through The Revelation of Arès
and probably previous unpublished or erased Calls has
suggested human beings to forego.
If man will retrieve his Genesitic vocation, he has to start
expanding again like the Universe. His expansion is an
exponential increase of unrestricted love of the neighbor.
A short time ago, while seated in a nice bar, I opened
my heart to my spouse Christiane about the content of this entry.
Christiane was quite unconcerned about the space-time, got
flint-faced and in a mineral flat voice replied to me :
"This adds nothing beyond what I already believed in." I usually
listen to my spouse, even when she is as cold as the granite
"saint" on a Breton calvary (I would rather see her smile, but she
happens to be different and I note her message as well). I between
two sips of beer thought that her impassiveness was proof that she
had succeeded in the new challenges that the Word of Arès had
encouraged humanity in, while I personnally have not totally
carried them out yet. I still have difficulties in making the Child
(Rev of Arès 13/5) live along with the Father or
Reason, who is not a Superandroid, at all,
notwithstanding. I still have difficulties in completely turning
my back on the numberless androlatrous believers. God hidden
behind clouds is not listening to me compassionately. I have to be
self-sufficient, because I am aware that the Father's Ear
(xxiv/6) is none other than my own conscience. The Father
has created me just as He has created the uncountable stars of the
galaxy GN-z11 which is 13,4 billion light-years away from Earth.
An equivalent rating of modesty is imperative. My dear wife's
impassive reply has reminded me beneficially that it is of the
utmost importance to get into one's head that the space-time and
my conscience are about the same thing. Likewise, the space-time
is the Universe's conscience. And thus it is impossible
to get an objective image of God. Our intelligence is no
more than rags, through the rips and holes of which we cannot
see—at the very least I cannot see—much as yet.

Unfinished Genesis : Adam is still ruling
Adam (Rev of Arès 2/1, vii/1)
still lies in the grave, he is scrubby and dessicated in a
disproportionate sleep. He is me, he is you, he is anyone dead,
alive or yet unborn. Everywhere in the world man is Adam's
death (vii/13) even now.
But this also is why one may be an Arès Pilgrim although he or
she is neither aware of The Revelation d'Arès, nor
Michel Potay, nor the small remnant's
(Rev of Arès 24/1) mission, the nor
prophetic background : Noah, Abraham, Jesus, and so on. All over
Earth numberless b'hers (wells, xxvi/7) are
found in which quantity of human beings swim unawares, who are
big potential reserves of activatable love.
We call them ripe or ripened spikes: the flesh
having waited for respiritualization ever since Genenis
3/23.
We can only get a diagrammatic notion of man's respiritualized flesh,
that is, man's flesh activated by love like
the gander's (Francis of Assisi, Rev of Arès
xxxvi/3), or under respiritualization development,
that is, able to make love his or her only reason
for being. Turning man's gaze to that possibility is
the Arès Pilgrims' prophetic task.
____________________________________
An Arès Pilgrim as an animal respiritualized or
in respiritualization development is well aware that he or she
will not return to Life (Rev of Arès 24/3-5, 25/3, 38/5,
xix/26) by his or her belief, whatever, but he or she will
return to Life by his or her ability to love.
So he or she will be saved: This is the key message of
the Word of Arès, the corridor that leads back to Life,
considering that practically everything on Erath still is
incompleteness and indecisiveness, doomed to disappear when the
sin of sins (38/2) lets its lid fall back.
Dogmatic gestalt psychology is the way to make oneself a believer
in a religion, but it is not the right way to make oneself an Arès
Pilgrim. One makes oneself an Arès Pilgrim through spiritual
evaporation within the complex room of one's complete being: flesh,
mind and soul (Rev of Arès 17/7), so that an Arès
Pilgrim searches after new targets for himself or herself
impulsively, once he or she has exceeded some standard of
practiced love; then deification starts and the
completion of Genesis grows possible.
An Arès Pilgrim is conscious that he or she is the heavy going
combination of animal (see #243) Adam (Rev of Arès
2/1-5, vii/1-16) and Life's (24/3-5, xix/26)
influx, so he or she is giving his or her love more
strength and all that ensues from it — forgiveness, peace,
freesom, intelligence —, a form which is not equal to
the Love, but inductive of the Love of the Father,
whose image he or she remains (Genesis 1/26).
In that strong way an Arès Pilgrim is revived in a particular
typical form and can spread his or her capacity for changing
and getting to know a lot of things far away and drawing on the
simple pure divinity he or she conceals. This is the Way
(24/3, 33/15)back or to the achievement
(35/6), the feasible completion of Genesis in
which all of men have stagnated so far.
Huge areas of religion, politics, ethics, philosophy and science,
in short of the way of life that Adam had once chosen,
have developed on delusions and mistakes, because Adam and
his offspring have blinded themselves to the Light and
have lit their ways with peepers of their own creation, notably
that which they have called rationale. A great majority of mankind
have long lost the capability of thinking and talking the right
way (Rev of Arès ii/8-9, xx/2, xxxiii/9) —
Master of wisdom Antisthnes in ancien times (about -400 before
Jesus Christ)) used to teach that unlearning evil is the most
difficult human action —. A spirital human being is able to get
out of that swarm (iii/2) of mistakes. While living in
it, that man can escape from the world where masses of
human have tried to harm and oust each other, because all on Earth
is rivalry, competition and unfair trading — May the best man win!
Yes, but who is the best man? Evil has a lot of replies to the
question apart from the right reply: the Good one (Jesus, Rev
of Arès i/2-*, ii/3-19, xiii/4-17, etc).
I can strive to love somehow or other, forgive
and make peace as I can, to free myself from the world's
cumbersomenesses and prejudices, so I will end up gaining a soul
and salvation. But I am capable of better, the best I can
do to speed up the completion of Genesis, provided I
can strongly overcome my weakness (Rev of Arès 27/8, 36/5,
etc.), more and more fight down my organism's resistance,
particularly that of my nervous system, fear, languidness, my
dreams. I have to make the abilities of my willpower utmost in
setting new targets for myself. To do so I need not find an
imaginary comforter or perform amazing mental or psychotic feats,
because my willpower alone will do — so that we can do your
Will (12/4). What is going to complete Genesis? Good
once it has reappeared! What holds up Good? Man, his
socio-culture, his selfishness, his atony, his fear. Then I should
be intended to seek all of possible challenge go in the reght
directions in performing Good, even though I am not
confident of whatever I contemplate doing.
However, men will necessarily complete and leave Genesis
with slowness and progressiveness. It is impossible to leave the
cave (cf Plato) to which Adam once chained himself up but by
proceeding by trial and error. Among the deep warpings of living
conditions which man has inflicted on himself time is
conspicuous(Rév d'Arès 12/6).Time
has considerably slowed down anything that changes and
made nothing true and effective easy to think up. Man gropes about
and stumbles as long as he makes the very difficult ascent
of Good.Good has no summit, because it
is always unattainable; it is always Life, the Father,
the Saint. It is inaccessible Good, as it has
never ceased to go up, extend and broaden, spread out (ii/4),
and it has never reached a climax, because it has no climax. Good
on Earth is never on sale wherever and whenever, it never is the
result of law, of manners of living, it never is a gift from
religion, or politics, or ethics. Good is an innate
need that humans have everywhere just as they have an innate need
of their Father. It is unlimited immeasurable Good
that causes God, Who is the continuous Reactor of Good,
to be the Eternal Fugitive and Eternal Life.
An exponential spiritual man is the one that wills to excel
himself in the domain of love, which is creative, just
as a cultured man is the one that has liking and time to cultivate
his mind. We are no longer in the kind of Good for
internal use, which is that of a minimally loving
one, but we are in the kind of Good for external
use of the maximally loving one.
An Arès P(p)ilgrim is an active being, a co-creator.
Intellectually he or she is a kind of agnostic being.
"An agnostic says, 'Creation may be assumed
to be the insertion of duration into the chaos... Even the
Bible may be assumed to be so, because it calls it up in coded
language: The earth was shapeless and empty, the darkness
used to fly over the abyss (chaos of matter) and
God's Spirit used to fly over waters (a duration that
brought the order) [Genesis 1/2]. The beginning was
possible only because there was a night and then a
morning, on the first day [Genesis 1/4]. The day after
was a second day; the second day after was a third day and so
on. And so on is God, because to create is make things follow
one another."
Emmanuel in "So as to comment Genesis".
God, Father, the Life, the
Eternal, I, the Outspread One spoke
to me, but I do not know Who or What He is.
He might be the flux of high energy atomic nuclei and particles,
which move about throughout the interstellar space, but which
are endowed with Intelligence and communication aid.
He might just be the cosmicStrong Wind (Rev of
Arès xxii/1) protons, helium nuclei, antiprotons,
electrons, positrons, gamma rays, neutrinos and neutrons,
albeit It is as capable of intelligence, vows and
wishes, emotion and word as the mass of human cells of the
mankind that He calls His Children (13/5). He too
might just be the cosmic radiation, the energy of which:
1020 eV (electronvolts) has never been explained by any
identified physics process, a radiation endowed with conscience
and reasoning just as my brain is, and so on.
The Life's(Rev of Arès 24/3-5) unknowable
nature makes It a Power (12/4)
extensible from the smallness of a nail (ii/21) to
infinity, a Strength as spread (ii/4) as the
Universe is, but which can go by a human mouth
(ii/21).
Anyway, God is not the nearly human King or Judge, who are mere
fancies of religions. God is but an inconceivable entity.
Believers call Him Lord and believe that He has spoken
to some men, which makes Him intelligible, but which does not
make him conceivable or supposable. The Outspread One (Rev of Arès ii/4) — the
Creator, the Life, the Father, God, the Being, the
Eternal, thee Most High, Allah, Brahma, Rāma, the Great
Spirit, and so on — is the Unlimited One as well as the Infinitesimal
One.
____________________________________
All of pictures and descriptions of God are
inventions or caricatures. Whenever I am asked : "What is
God in reality?" I reply : "As regards God there is nothing that
man calls reality. God is God just as nothing is nothing. But God
is neither nonexistent nor fictitious all the same. The most
atheistic earthly living detect quirks of fate that cannot happen
unless another Life watches and at times helps, even
seldom. But that Life is absence of presence." I am eyed
scornfully then. I go on, "Just view the chair that you are
sitting on! Just imagine it being immeasurable, but benevolently
talking though. An immeasurable chair because it is to the extent
of both your hindquarters and the Universe, and
benevolently talking because some human beings happen to hear it."
They scoff at me, "It's nonsense..." I cut the questioner short,
"That's the conclusion! It's nonsense, it's God!"
I have mentioned God in the blog already (entry 65, August 6,
2007). I mentioned Him gingerly, though I was convinced
of what I am telling now, even then, but I was unaware of the
right way to broach the subject from a point of view less
widespread than that of the common patterns of speech and
thinking. The fairest thing I can tell is that God cannot be
subjected to man's concepts ever, and that no thought or writing
can convey Him.
Human languages are irremediably poor and inadequate and cannot
help but reduce God to an anthropoforming personalizing concept:
Zeus, Jupiter, the Self, Brahman, the Eternal, Yahveh, Baal, Seth,
Great Spririt, Izanagi, an so on. Man cannot name God as long as
he is restricted to human languages.
God is else than anything or anybody, anyway.
God is always a wrong topic simply because
1. He is inside man, even though man fails to detect Him — each
and every one of us is His image and likeness (Genesis
1/26-27), 2. He does not match the experience of God I had in 1977,
which has ever permitted me to claim, "Ever since God came forward
in Arès, I know what He says, but I do not know what or who He is.
He is as mysterious as life and the Universe; life is
the driving force in the least of my cells and emotions and the Universe
spreads up to the infinite."
At Arès (France, Gironde), in 1974, a supernatural being, the Most
High's Messenger, who was corporeal and moving,
long-haired and bearded, speaking my language, touching me with
his hands, dictated the first part of The Revelation of
Arès : The Gospel Given in Arès. He was not God, but
God's telegraphist, he was Jesus of Nazareth.
But at Arès, in 1977, it was the Power's Voice (Rev of Arès
vii/4-5, xxxiii/5, xLii/13-14), which was
making me one more Mensenger(26/7). That
Voice, God's (37/3), came forward in my attendance in the
guise of a light stick or antenna amid a cataclysmic commotion. He
dictated to me the second part of The Revelation of Arès: The
Book.
I have heard and seen all that. The conclusion is that we are not
the center of the Universe; we are not alone.
We are not alone, but what have I seen? Only that which I have
depicted and I am convinced that that is practically nothing of
all that goes along with the Earthlings throughout the endlessness
of the Universe. I have seen and heard no more than
what my human potential enables me to see and hear. I can just see
a beginning, because the flesh cannot see the end. The
end is someplace else.
Nothing is known about God, and nothing is unknown about Him. All
about Him is indefinable. Even though we are aware by His very
Revelation that The One Who has the Sanctity, Power and Light
(Rev of Arès 12/4) is in existence, and that He has created
us as free (10/10) beings, and that He lets us free
to go astray and destroy ourselves, if we wish, we do not have
about Him but blurred inexplicit notions, because those who are
unable or refuse to see are blind — all of men for
the time being — and those who are unable or refuse to hear are deaf
(Luke 8/13). We believe that another life is potential. It
is, but let's not be fooled by mytical or mystical views, which
all are anthropomorphic, and which all are kinds of
hagiographies related to fairy tales. Only metaphysics can help us
unravel the materiality that usually shuts our dreams of
Hereafter, which hides the fact that there is a deep gross
uncertainty.
Even a human being who like me is convinced of his perpetuity
beyond death is aware that, no matter what he or she does, mankind
is not eight billions, but One. Therefore, we have to
work to hatch the ripe wheat ears. Our blindness and
deafness are such that nothing lasts in the material world, jus
as the Eternal will not last in synagogues, God will not
last in Churches, Allah will not last in mosques, and so on, and
that for the time being it is very hard to keep aware that there
is in existence something else, which for instance we come and get
on the Arès Pilgrimage, and which the Father calls the Life
(24/3-5) or the Fire (xLi/7) for
lack of a suitable human word. The Revelation of Arès in its full context asserts that
mankind needs a revival or a strain to become loving,
forgiving, pacifying, smart and free. To change
the world (Rev of Arès 28/7),Harvesters (5/2-5, 31/6,
35/1-2, 37/8) are needed to introduce the Aresian hopes.
For now so God starts with us. We are God before we know who or
what God is in His whole infinite Power, Sanctity and Light
(12/4).
Spinoza thought that "people when unable to understand aim at
moralizing". It was a right thought. Church Christianism, Mosque
Islamism, Synagogue Judaism do not understand that God is
indefinable, so as if to compensate for this shortcoming they have
developed rigorous moralities, which in the end have taken the
place of the development of conscience and cheerful faith. We Arès
Pilgrims are perfectly aware that we do not understand who and
what God may be, but we accept Him as such and our admission of
ignorance has the strength of honesty. We need no harsh morals. We
quite naturally have grown into the images and resemblances (Genesis
1/26-27) of the Great Unknown, the Outspread One.

Fleeing the beast inside me
The master technoscientific,
ideational, political, religious and so on has made the world
a field to graze nags meant to be hitched up to their cyclic
destiny, a loop flow of their thoughts, their boredom and plays
like nags hitched to carts.
The whip of life tans human hides and we are seeking ways
to rustle the Life (Rev of Arès 24/5) louder than the
cracking whip. The mind has forgotten that it had been the ultimate refuge
place of great expectations. Love of the neighbor and
the world's change (Rev of Arès 28/7) worry only a
handful of clumsy crippled people, that is, us who cannot become
an apostolic power before many generations pass. But
aren't we beginning the mission? Yes, we are. We will never
stop.
Technosciences have emptied and cleaned out man's psyche like a
well, but we are bringing back the Water into the world
drop by drop.
____________________________________
In Arès the Father spoke to me. He did not do
so because I might have been better than others, but because He
was probably looking for a human voice, a whinnying nag chosen at
random to remind the world that men have not only
already suffered and died because of sin, but that they
are making their way towards the worst: the sin of sins (Rev
of Arès 38/2). The Revelation of Arès reminds (7/5, 16/15, 21/3, etc.)
man that he has been born of a Design (28/27. 36/8).
Man can freely (10/10) forget about that Design,
but he is going to turn into a thick web of pains and go downhill
unabated back to animality, if he persists in forgetfulness and
fails in changing (28/7) for the Better.The
Revelation of Arès encourages men to master Good
simply by being penitent and practicing love
(35/6). Let's change the world, but not by means of law,
police, courts, school, prison, but by means of goodness. By
means of penitence, by abiding by The Sermon on the
Mount (Matthew ch. 5 to 7) each human being can
be the Good one (Rev of Arès i/5-9, ii/ 3-19, viii/3,
xiii/4-17, etc.) or christ (32/2) again.
Changing one's life (30/11), that is,loving,
forgetting, making peace, being intelligent
and free of all prejudices, means recovering Life
(24/5).
Some people hurls to me, "Stop repeating yourself!" I reply, "I
will repeat myself until I breathe my last and even beyond. Not
only this insistence does not animalize me, but even it humanizes
me exactingly in the sense that it deifies me (Genesis
1/26). Deify yourselves likewise! Don't allow yourselves to
be stuffed and mounted by the the technosciences, which take over
from while trying to set up transhumanisme, artificial
intelligence and so on. Whenever I am echoing the Father's Call
(Rev of Arès 23/2, 28/11, ii/19), "Change your lives!",
I mean : "Be the living!"
Our mind is not an engine acting on the pilot's moves as a nag
acts on the coachman's moves. A mind is an infinitely rich,
creative, liberating, living flow. No mind among eight billion
minds on earth is self-sufficient or can do without the other
7.999.999.999 on earth. As a matter of fact, we human beings are One
all together (Rev of Arès xxiv/1).
A thought is not necessarily a nag's snort
among the gig of all nags' snorts. Any thought, when returned to
normal, therefore good, joins the unique yarn
in the unique huge human fabric. This is why one life that
changes and gains love produces an effect much
more considerable than it thought it could produce on the whole
human fabric. When Filippo Lippi painted the wonderful
"Virgin" in the cathedral of Spoleto, for us just a subjective or
symbolic image of the motherly phase of the invisible Mother-Father,
he was just the outcome of a masterpiece by the whole human
race considered as the Father's Child (Rev of Arès 13/5),
because he was incapable of realizing such a beauty by
himself, that is, without the notional contribution of all the
generations before him, or contemporary of him, or after him.
For the time being the world is not in human action. It is in
hustle and bustle. Hustle and bustle brings about
dismantling. A soundless dismantling, for it is slow and it
apparently worries no one. Man has the daily round of an animal,
which he describes as normal. Whenever the missionaries of the
current generation come up against disinterest, apathy and
silence, they come up against the apathy which underlies the
hustle and bustle. Nevertheless, apathetic broken people, whom the
apostle meets, feel free and even sometimes say they are
satisfactorily free. They erroneously call the conceptual shackles
which trap them freedom; they are unaware of their collars,
harness, bits like plow horses. This is what I call it narcosis of
suffering.
Suffering is not action. Our apostles have been experiencing the
quite insensitive unconcious refusals by the people they meet,
gentlemen and ladies on the street, to heed their calls to the
inner revolution that could make them have innovating souls,
makers of a new world. We have to awaken the mortals' consciences,
so that they realize that they are no simple egos, because
isolating oneself in one's ego is making oneself unable to do
anything contrary to received wisdom; man can recover his absolute
ability only by understanding that his ego is the Maker and that
all human beings, his brothers and sisters, are the Maker's
component parts, and that creative Power, Sanctity and Light
(Rev of Arès 12/4) are based on Love, which is
the single entity through which Life reappears. It is
easy to grasp that four generations will be unsufficient
(24/2) to take the world out of the horse
stables where it is confined in order to make it aware of its
destiny.
The man whose ego is produced by his personal gratification is a
nag. He stays by himself between stretchers in his poor
egocentricity with his hooves clattering on the pavement. However,
should an ego understand that it can become the Creator's
Hand, if he joined all of egos of the huge Universe,
it would the root of lucky undertakings. The good ego of
a man is all of men's ego. Even when they gather together, all the
nags on Earth cannot feel it. Only human beings can discover the
unlimited multiplication of the Self.

The Word : plenary sense, typical sense, metaphysical
sense
The Word reaches mankind in two ways :
First, it reaches men the way the prophet, that is its
ear witness or depository, got and transcribed it, the way any
man reads it therefore.
Next, it reaches men the way the prophet,
that is the first exigete, teaches it (Rev ofArès 28/10,
32/8, 35/4, 36/20, 39/1).
The prophet does not harp on and on; he knows.
____________________________________
Sin(Rev of Arès 2/1-5) has shrunk human beings
to the extent that a vastness of mental breaches have pulled them
off from the Creator. The thread that still joins the short
anthropic life with eternal Life (Rev of Arès
24/3-5) is dim and flimsy.
From time immemorial Life has ceased to open his heart
to its Children (Rev of Arès 13/5) in heavenly language,
which they cannot understand anymore. Now Life
speaks in man's unfit language to express Calls,
Exordia, Prolegomena, but never developed rhetorics. Even Life
(24/3-5, 25/3, 38/5, 39/5, xix/26) has turned into a Mystery
(33/19) reduced to a Name (3/6, 28/4, 28/10, 31/1-2,
39/9, xv/5, xviii/2-4) among the uncountable inexpressible
Names given to Sanctity, Power and Light (12/4).Life is all One in itself along with the Universe
and everything available in it. Human beings cannot get to Him
anymore. Nowadays we cannot help but listening to the pure Logos
as to an imperceptible aria. Only a blurred transcoding
reaches the world.
Reading the Word has become inadequate. Believers should
be taught by the prophet.
Life, the Father, the Eternal, God,
the Creator, the Most High, and so forth — whatever you call
Him, He is the Source of Life — donates two
fundamentals to the prophet : His Word and the
charisma for revealing His Word's profound meaning. It
takes some time to read the Word or Scripture,
but it takes a whole lifetime to teach (Rev of Arès 39/1)
its sense, because the prophet lives within time —
only Life has instant full knowledge, because it is out
of time (12/6) —. Moreover, even if the prophet
is gifted with a charisma for teaching the Word, he
stays in his self as an individual dependent on earthly hazards: Jesus
is crucified before having the time to teach whatever he
has to teach; Muhammad is the subject of political
problems, and has to make war, and dies before having enough time
to be a complete teacher. It seems that Man Michel
(1/1, 2/20, 3/9, etc.) is the first one who has the decades
needed. In any case all the prophets are given the
masterful authority.
The Revelation of Arès' one Source is Life
(Rev of Arès 24/3-5), but it has flowed into me in two
separate floods:
First flood, 1974: The Gospel Given in Arès came in
through the lips of Messenger (32/2) Jesus, who
took on a human body. The natural noise of human
language came out of it. Like any human sound it was a
so-called literal language, that is, inescapably an incomplete,
partial, restricted one;
Second flood, 1977: The Book came to me through the
Voice that is not the noise (Rev of Arès vii/4). I was
complex semiotics, which entered me (vii/5) in the most
simultaneous fullest sense of the word enter: the sound
through my ears and waves through the total surface of my flesh.The Book as sounds and wavescame out of a
stick, I could call an antenna as well, of Light,
and which was no higher than a cane. I have tried to make people
understand it by writing in brackets all that entered me trough my
whole self and writing without brackets all that entered me
through my ears, although it was not always easy to draw a
distinction between both of them. The poverty of typographical
resources has prevented me from sharing the implex experience of
that "listening". I anyway claim that I was instantly well aware
of all that the Father told me in some way or other.
In my unfailing perception of The
Revelation of Arès whether sensory or extra-sensory I have
correctly found the distinction between the plenary sense and the
typical (typical meaning symbolic) sense of the Word
made by exegetes a long time ago. I have added the metaphysical
sense to them.
The Word, when seen as a string of
words on some paper is just a frail footbridge between Life
and the Child (Rév of Arès 13/5),in the middle of which the Child is sitting. The Word
is not completed in Itself; It is a crude footbridge, a
sequence of boards on a wire over a chasm, or a simple
bread: flour, water, salt, yeast mixed and baked. Plain in
itself, difficult to handle perfectly. The kingdom of Heaven
may be compared to the yeast a woman has mixed in three measures
of flour until it works all through the dough" (Matthew 13/33,
Luke 13/20-21). The Word encompasses the Creation
as a whole, but the reader is just a light thread within one of
the strands of the mooring that links up Truth or the Universe
with the sinful world, which we have to change (28/7). The
prophet is the footbridge-pontoneer and the baker.
Exegetes have referred to plenary sense as less rough
comprehension of the literal sense, wich is always slight. The
plenary sense brings some order into the scraps of Truth
in the literal sense; scraps because readers remain in the domain
of words. They have referred to typical sense in order to
understand more, leave the word domain. Beyond that, the
metaphysical sense is found.
Is Abraham going to sacrifice Isaac? A lot of
readers get no further than the literal sense: Abraham,
Isaac, the knife, the angel that tells Abraham not to do it, the
ram sacrificed instead (Genesis 22) and ethically they
commend Abraham's obedience to God, full
stop. As for the plenary sense, it does not leave the word field;
Abraham, Isaac, the knife, the angel and so on are still
leading, but they ask an important questsion, no trace of which
appears in the text, just an underlying question, "which is only :
"Why not trust the Eternal under all conditions?" The
typical sense is much deeper: The reader leaves the literary
field, the historic stage outright, he or she gets to the Bottom:
There is no limit to penitence efforts, because
there starts the only possible combination with Life(Rev
of Arès 24/5). Finally the metaphysical escape occurs, as
the reader will anyway die sooner or later and what he or she will
live through then is physically unknown, indescribable and yet is
not unreal, because whatever will be lived through is not
less True than whatever is imagined. Abraham
is going to kill Isaac, so death is already potential;
metaphysics is reasonable anticipation of a final end which
outright escapes the current substance. Will the soul be
on an upward trajectory throughout the sky up to the stars or
spread out over the whole Universe? Is it going to meet
all other souls and form a whole along with them,
a one soul, the polone (Rev of Arès xxxix/12-13?
Will it become one (xxiv/1) with Life ?
Anything is conceivable
when there are no eyes, ears, conscience any more left, but it is
true nonetheless. The parentheses or brackets in The Book are
filled with métaphysics, undescribable Truth. Abraham on
the verge of killing Isaac is just a story
in parentheses or brackets in the Bible.
The belief, whether definite or hazy, in the
assumption that man's bodily life is only a transition, and that
nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed
(Anaxagoras, Lavoisier), and that something else might be in
existence after death, is widespread on Earth. Every
religion teaches, according to its specific view, how the
passing from earthly life to the beyond happens.
But what an abundance of religions teach disparate tenets of
death passing! Christians forgive their enemies in order to go
to Heaven; some Muslims slaughter them while screaming, "Allahou
akbar ( ٱللَّٰهُ أَكْبَ )"; Hindus wait for happiness through
reincarnation; Kohelet (9/4-5) says to Jews, "A
live dog is better off than a dead lion. The living know that
they are to die, but the dead no longer know anything, at all.
What is faith? Faith is insight! It is not a matter of paradise, hell or
purgatory. It is not an esoteric construct. It is not
a fairy tale. A man is insightful whenever he makes do
with the little he does know.
___________________
Faith is the only potentiality of the
forward-looking thinking, the only feasible leap over time
and matter, the only way to make the impossible possible and make
the unacceptable acceptable, even if the imperceptible, the
immeasurable and the invisible cannot be felt, at all. The Revelation of Arès mentions the
post-mortem survival but with metaphors: Mouth of Life
(24/3-5),happiness (36/23), Father's Day (31/8)
without more. Why such a lack of enlightenment? Because
telling our brains about the incomprehensible is no help at all.
Modern man's brain is much better than a mouse brain, but it is no
more than a mouse brain when compared with the extraordinary
ancient powers of Adam's brain before his fall. Sin
has made man short-sighted and obtuse. Faith is our white stick.
Thus faith arose as a compensation after Adam's race had
faded out all memories of Eden even more rapidly and widely as
they might have not liked it. Only faith has to the present day
been conducive to conjure up visions of the invisible and the
indiscernible, all that no live human can see and experience any
more. Even if faith wanders more or less and often distorts facts,
as for me I cannot consider rationalistic materialists as other
than cowards who conceal behind a gate, which they claim would be
the sole ultimate limit of the existing universe, and who loudly
maintain that there is just fiction or dream behind the gate. They
do not believe that intuition is memory.
Faith makes do without scientific proofs. It expresses itself in
the shadow of absolute Truth, which is future (28/7)
in The Revelation of Arès, and which is not
within the range of spectacle, microscopes, manometers, and
so on. "Nobody can get total Truth ("We believe, We do
not believe", The Revelation of Arès, published in 1995,
p. 722), Truth only belongs in spiritual intelligibility
and palpability. Therefore, faith is so rich that it is
never the same from one individual to another, even among Arès
Pilgrims, bccause it is shaped to fit the myriad forms of
intuition.
Lately, we have listened to peremptory rhetorics, which were but
declarations of faith actually : Putin declares war on the Ukraine
because he has faith in the validity of his own concerns utterly
opposite to Ukrainians concerns, and because he has faith in a
train of events, which he has surmised, but which occur in
completely different ways. Twelve people run for president in
France. Their convictions are just declarations of faith in a
train of events, which do not happen in the ways they hoped for.
Even the elected president cannot know what tomorrow will bring
and what he will have to do. In other words, faith is never
achieved like a scientifically demonstrated fact, even if the
conduct and organization of nations are always based of faith.
This implies that the future can never be contemplated, unless
with faith.
People make fun of the Arès Pilgrims' faith, though it would be
better for them to begin questioning themselve. Believing in God
or in better tomorrows, or doubting everything in emitting the
opposite conclusion of the desperate people, "They're all
rotten!", "Death to the Jews... the Muslims! and so on" reflects
badly upon one uncertainty, permanently the same
uncertainty, because everything never stops being built. There
will never be an end to building.
That is the great lesson of The Revelation of Arès.
Uncertainty is an obstacle which man has to get over, if he wants
to grow sacred just as the Maker is sacred (Leviticus 20/27),
for faith is the only bow wave of Truth.
Life is noetic, almost fully made of uncertainties that put a
serious strain on psyche. What connections are there between the
fantastic supernatural apparitions in 1974 and 1977 and the stiff
resistance which the Earthlings put up to them? That
question has never given up hounding me for half a century; it
revisits my faith nearly every morning. I unsure of everything can
only try to assess the psychosocial stakes that result from my
testimony, which evidently closes up the path between the events I
have lived through and the events the world lives through.
Only faith makes me strong. Only faith makes my Arès Pilgrim
brothers and sisters strong. Do we gain any mental balance in the
end? Yes, we do, and the balance is invaluable, because faith,
when a mere choice, is unsufficient — Adam merely chose
to be a sinner and that led him to the fall (Rev of Arès
2/1-5) —; faith makes nobody a prophet or a chosen one
(28/1), as none of us, whether a hawk or a
hawk fledgling (xLv/14), mignt maintain that
he or she is followed by chance companions and none of us the
living has already died and might claim that he or she is a
satisfactory penitent and has gotten a soul; he
or she cannot say where that soul ends up at, either,
and our brothers and sisters that have died never come back to
tell us what sort of fate they have met in the beyond.
Faith, which has no similarities to dream, enables man to find his
extraordinary inventive power, anticipate the indescribable
miracle of the Abode (Rev of Arès 2/10, 20/4, 33/18, etc.)
close to Life (24/3-5). Faith is the tireless necessary
driving force to evolve in every field; the field of earthly
undertakings, but particularly in the field of the spiritual
exploration. I think that no fundamental discovery or invention,
or a major work, or a propitious development has ever been issued
by an unassisted man. An invisible assistance or impetus from
nowhere — as for me I would say, from Life — is the
primary cause or contributes powerfully. A supernatural being,
whom I thought was Jesus of Nazareth indefinitely alive, appeared
and talked to me in 1974, and then disappeared. Later, a much more
impressive Power Who had no physical body but had a
ringing Voice talked to me in 1977 eloquently and
concisely. The Event is not non-shareable, as I have stated the
facts, but it is anionic, hence unbelievable, because it belongs
in a sort of experience which is as good as bygone ever since sin
began to be rife. As it is unbelievable, only faith can have it
left alive. The same is true for a lot of other events which are
usually considered as material. Why was Archimedes Archimedes?
Mozart Mozart? Einstein Einstein? Why is the caretaker at my
tenement house not as good as them? My caretaker's brain is the
same as theirs, but the marvelous gold javelins thrown from
Heaven do not run through him, but I cannot understand why,
period.s
However, we have to face up to the problem requested by faith when
compared to —let's assume—the dominoes game twenty-eight pieces,
among which there is just one double-six. Among a number
of forms possible faith has just one form of Good. A lot
of human beings have faith in their cultures; some of them go so
far as to imprison, despoil, cut throats, behead, on behalf of
their faith. Faith poses a very acute problem, which the world
will be obliged to solve. We know that there is one only remedy: Penitence.
Let's have faith in penitence, that is, in love!
Reader, please comprehend that I do not
really name Arès P(p)ilgrims but the few that have presently
found out The Revelation of Arès and that go on
Pilgrimage to Arès nowadays.
Reader, never forget that the Arès P(p)ilgrims actually are a
lot more numerous than these who constitute the Assembly
that has stemmed from our current mission.
I name an Arès P(p)ilgrim any human being, whether or
not he or she is aware ofThe Revelation of
Arès, who has changed, changes or will change
his or her way of life (Rev
of Arès 30/11) into Good whether in
ancient times, or past days, or present days, or future days,
anywhere on Earth, belonging in any race and culture, and who
used to live or is living or will live according to the Maker's
Design, of which the Word of Arès reminds us,
the Design which consists in bringing back to sole Good
— Just be one within you (Rev of Arès xxiv/1). An Arès P(p)ilgrim's faith is ageless, transcendental,
timeless, non-cultural, non-racial. That faith is based on a
spiritual or anagogical sociology much out of phase with
academic scientific sociology. That intense being out of touch
is still far from being detectible.
____________________________________
Human life has turned to nothing more then
nostalgia of an enchantment or bliss long gone ever since Adam
invented sin (Rev of Arès 2/1-5, vii/7-13). The
enchantment is not back before the heart stops beating and the soul
escapes to the infinite space; it cannot be back in the flesh
and mind (17/7) for the duration of the world's refusal
to change (28/7), because even the best of man is to
stand by sin as long as sin is rife, as men
are One.
Hence the need for life in groups and even in masses of men who
imagine that enchantment is to come depending on the number. Hence
society and sociology.
Sociology consists in observing human society. University teaches scientific therefore materialistic sinful
sociology, that does its best to see and explain
human behevior as a schematic [in Kant's view] society, but that
takes little interest in mental states, commotions and spiritual
life, and thet takes no interest in metaphysics, at all. The Revelation of Arès, when properly read, introduces a
different sociology from another immemorial single aeon — Life
(Rev of Arès 24/3-5) — of uniting energy, which aims at
setting in metempiricical motion a society forgotten about in the
abyss of man's mystery, which is still alive. This society, which
can be called anagogical, tends to be One — Be
one within you (xxiv/1) —unlike materialistic
society which tends to multiple and heterogeneous; it tends to Unicity,
because it is cut out for intsalling Good based
on love, which forever rallies people.
That anagogical society for the time being becomes scarcely
apparent as a counterpoint to scientific sociology; it takes the
ways human beings think and reason metaphysically, among others
Arès Pilgrims who are certainly very typical and who are
developing towards monism unlike scientific society who are
developing towards pluralism. Sinful mankind are materialistic sociologically. The
Arès P(p)ilgrims are sinners, so they may be observed
from two sociological aspects : materialism and anagogy. The Arès
P(p)ilgrims span the long rift that Life (Rev
of Arès 24/3-5) has caused in Arès with the edge of Its Hand
(xxxvi/1), and they move forward with their feet
uncomfortably apart, with a foot on the physical side and
the other foot on the metaphysical side. The walk will be long but
not endless, it will last for an indefinite number of generations
(24/2). And we have to thank all those who get involved in
it.
An anagogically social human being lives, speaks, works, makes
plans along with other humans beings just as a materialistically
social human being does, but he or she acts on a line of
metaphysical expectation that the world is going
to change (Rev of Arès 28/7), that is,
humanity is going towards being One, towards Source,Life, ideal Transcendence through love.
In 1989 the Berlin wall falls, so two materialistic sociologies,
the American one and the Sovietic one, mix. Are they going towards
unicity? No, they do not, because they cannot. Thirty-two years
later Russia attacks Ukraine, massacres Ukrainians,
destoys their houses. Materialism, its persistent complications,
rivalries and grudges linger. Everything stays reduced to ulterior
motives. Georg Hegel said that Minerva's bird takes flight at
twilight, meaning that consciousness without fail gets busy too
late. Why? Because consciouscess cannot keep steadfast as long as
love of the neighbor is lacking. Materialistic sociology
is the ever unfinished study of a continuous decompositon.
Anagogical sociology is to be the study a a continuous
recomposition, which will develop very slowly until it comes to an
end.
Now, a few additional thoughts, which readers who do not have
the time may skip :
I personally consider anagogical or spiritual sociology as the
knowledge of men's interactive behaviors on the long circular
railway of Good, which comes from Life and
goes to Life, observation of the tension of the being
towards Unity; that sociology sets out to understand how
man keeps going and evolves to reach even harmony, which is
repetitively interrupted with standstills, breakdowns and
derailments, indeed, though never permanently.
Do the Arès P(p)ilgrims constitute an anagogical sociological
group? In reply I answer sometimes yes, sometimes no. One may be
both an Arès P(p)ilgrim and a Chinese, an Indian, Portuguese,
Eskimo, Zulu or Switzer, or both an Arès P(p)ilgrim and IVth,
XIth, XIXth or XXIIth from time immemorial: love and its
derivatives, which are forgiveness, peace,, heart intelligence
and freedom from prejudices, even though neither
uniformity of hope nor uniformity of penitence have been
acquired so far.
Why was Jesus summarily wiped out, erased? Because he was a
dissenting Jew? Not at all, as judaism had always been made with
dissents. Jesus was wiped out, because he was uncategorizable or
indeterminable sociologically, which might well frighten the
civil, military and religious authorities inordinately from
ancient times to today. Angels reality has from times immemorial
been attested by all mythologies, religions and
superstitions; people talk about them, represent them as images,
woodcarving, marble sculpture and so on, but they never see
angels, they just live thinking that angels are a reality. When an
angel accidentally appears, a real one inevitably very different
from priests', artists', sorcerers', poets', coalmen's angel,
people tremble, shriek, are scared stiff in thousands of ways.
When they are in front of the unknown the most sophisticated
scientificosociological organizations are like crude animals.
"What's that Jesus who speaks as if he were God? Let's nail him on
the cross without ado!" "What's that covid? A new plague? A
vaccine without ado". But the vaccine has been unable to dispel
the covid just as the nailing on a cross had been unable to dispel
Jesus. Therefore, we Arès P(p)ilgrims have no longer an entire
scientificosociological existence. But the world, that we
have to change (Rev of Arès 28/7) still has an intense
scientificosociological or scientificoanthropological existence,
which is going to exist until the Father's Day (31/8)
breaks. Now, how can we anagogicosociologal people be heard by the
scientificosociological world? We are forever searching for the
bridge between anagogism eand materialism, because even believers
(Jews, Church Christians, Muslims) materialize God and the
ultimate ends, so it is still almost impossible, except in very
short flashes of perceptiveness, to separate the human animal from
the spiritual human.
I am going to use learned words again, but, o reader, believe me
when I say that I do not try to sound learned, for I would let my
heart talk if I could. Moreover, most of learned words have
floating, if not irresolute meanings; let's not marvel at them!
But human language, albeit it sounds coarse, enables us to make
changes in thinking. Now, thinking is the lock, even though it is
crude and grating, of the soul.
Scientology and anthropology are related. Social anthropology,
ever since scientists have studied primitive societies, has
developed to the degree that all traditional societies are
involved, including factory societies. The study of contemporary
life in cities and buisiness, is one of the new lines of research.
In this respect, anthropology has found a place in the knowledge
of society; some scientists even want to confuse scientology and
anthropology. More than anything, that which in my opinion bases
anthropology is a very interesting particular way of grasping one
and the same real : the human being. The holistic approach of
humanity, so as to search in it for society in its entirety is
possible, but monographical; it forces the anthropologist to make
a very short, necessarily restricted summary of society, such as a
sole observer is capable of seeing it. But that summary is enough
to extract man from his animal version and get him into his
spiritual version, for man cannot be One out of his spiritual
version — Just be one within you (Rev of Arès xxv/1) —.
This is not a matter of opinion or of thinking about, but it is an
absolute matter. The absolute is either, "I believe", or "I do not
believe", period. The paradox of the anthropological
reasoning, Claude Lévi-Strauss underlined, lies in the fact
that "people try to make the most intimate subjectivity an
objective demonstration." Then, obviously, there are two worlds on
Earth already: That of the matérialists, which is heavy and
complicated, and that of the spiritual, which is subtle and
simple.
I now say a few words about anthropology seen as a dark recess of
sociology under the equivocal gaze of Nicolas Maleranche
(1638-1715), a greatly overlooked great philosopher. Malebranche
was a French Catholic priest who dared bring together theologist
Augustine of Hippo (saint Augustine) and physicist René Descartes
as coherent thinkers. Malebranche did his best to develop a
remarkable metaphysics based on the concept that God's continuous
action takles all kinds of subjects imaginable whether
supernatural or material. This is also the view Arès P(p)ilgrims
have about Life. Malebranche claimed that man is
stripped of his soul and that this might well be
definitive in some people, so three hundred years after him we can
better understand why we have to recreate our souls by
being penitent. Malebranche appropriately
claimed too, that sinners have only occasional causes of sinning
(occasionalism). Malebranche thought that nothing occurs which,
when thought about with intelligence, could not
irremediably bring us back to God. His philosophy was as spiritual
as rationalistic. Unicity (Rev of Arès xxiv/1) is the
indisputable conclusion to which any careful reader of The
Revelation of Arès comes. Needless to say that Malebranche
was severely criticized by religious people, Jesuits,
sanctiminious persons, and so on. Despite everything he was called
"the greatest metaphysicist that France has had ever" by Étienne
Gilson. Malebranche considered metaphysics as the foundation of
faith and of the concept of God conceived of as a Being rational
or material as much as aeonian.
Ethnological experiment is unique, because it makes the observer
question his or her own categories and open his or her mind to the
way of thinking of others, and analyze them, and reconstruct them
so as to make them properly understood by his or her own society.
The monographical approach and the challenges, which that
experiment compels from the observer, work out new concepts in
several areas: religious, political, legal, economic... and
spiritual. But the review of the ethnocentrism, that typifies
these categories stemming from the western culture, leads people
to reshape them. There appears a need for new areas like
anthropology of simple pure spirituality such as it is represented
by us Arès P(p)ilgrims.
As for me, I do not think that a pure knowledge is necessarily
gotten by a method; intuition and foresight are needful. This is
especially the case as regards anthropology at a time when its
method has become popular in other disciplines and when,
therefore, it is thrown out from the environment where some
scientists want to found its specificity. Anthropology might well
be doomed to its own breakup, as it moreover cannot aspire to the
its exclusive existence. That equivocal status creates trouble in
the thoughts of people that are incapable of admitting that there
is a central, basic, spiritual purpose, which is the
concern about returning to Life, beyond the
empirical purpose.
You cannot know the human being, if you are not interested in the
conditions of his or her advents, hesitations, multiple attempts
and developments; so it is uneasy to define the spiritual or
anagogical anthropology or sociology in a few words. Furthermore,
the curiosity whetted by that knowledge of the human being
develops a paradoxal relationship with the deep dismay which
disturbs all the people that study it in front of the difficulty
in defining its object, determining its extent, being aware of who
is who and who is facing this or that direction. We ourselves Arès
P(p)ilgrims at the start of the twenty-first century make several
main approaches compete within us: physical anthropology,
ethnology, spiritual quest and above all taht which we call penitence:
the search for love, which creates the soul.
We are to be a mystery to the current world; we have trouble
defining ourselves whenever we are questioned about what we are
actually. Nevertheless, as anthropology or sociology, in the
broader sense of the word, consists in gathering together all the
disciplines that study human beings from a broad global
perspective, we are gradually going to clarify our occurate
position of Arès P(p)ilgrims in relation to all of human
projects.s
I have just read this entry through again and it gives me an odd
feeling to reread it. I feel as if I were back to the remote days
of my studies. I find this writing outdated. I will not change
anything in it nonetheless, because it is not irrelevant. There
are a lot of paths to reach the feeling that is necessary to
trigger metaphysics off.
February 17, 2022 (238 US) achieving the unachievable or the knight of faith
Once Jesus was dead, 83 followers remained :
12 apostles mentioned by Mark, Matthew and Luke + 70
disciples mentioned by Luke+ Paul of Tarsus
mentioned in The Acts of the Apostles. They
excepting Paul did not propagate the Gospel, but
The Revelation ofArès views Paul's work as just a book
by man (Rev of Arès 16/12, 35/12) jointly with John's
work.
The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew ch. 5 to 7) was to
stay unheeded."Jesus preached the Kingdom, but
the Church was established instead," Alfred Loisy wrote. A
century later we only find Irenæus († 203),
who is already a clergyman, a pupil of Papias, bishop of
Hierapolis († 155). The early famous
theologists are servant of the Church : Clement of
Alexandria († 215), Origen († 253),
and so on. Pure Christianity has never existed, but
occasionally, probably because it has been unfulfillable in its
pure state in the global legal-political context so far.
We Arès Pilgrims have to achieve the unachievable,
which is an existentialist task for knights of faith (Søren
Kierkegaard).
____________________________________
The Revelation of Arès says, The
real piety consists in uttering the Word so as to achieve
It (35/5). In other words, praying (12/5, 25/6, etc.)
is no worship, even if it is very fervent; praying is
considering the Word as an objective lesson, a plan scheduled for
completion; it recalls that we have to change our lives
(30/11) and the world (28/7) through love. The Word of Arès jointly with Jesus' word call on man to
establish the Kingdom or spiritual life. How? By penitence
(Rev of Arès 16/17, 28/25, etc.), that is love
and all that derives from it: forgiveness, peace, freedom, and
by the crop (4/12, 6/2, etc.) of penitents.
The sacerdotal people (36/20) are the crowd of
the "athletes" or heroes (xxxv/4-12) of faith, for loving
all of men all the time requires a permanent essential
endeavor.
There is a deep schism between what happens and what is taught,
just as there is a deep schism between religion and spirituality. Four generations will not be enough (Rev of Arès 24/2) to
fulfill the unfulfillable, but we will be successful in the
end, provided that we permanently keep loving (25/2-7)
mankind and being moderate, patient and pious (39/3).
Religions die sluggishly. Their followers excepting the sparse
maximalists for the time being are having feelings of helplessness
and do not know whom or where to turn to. Christendom seen as
dogmatised masses, whether Catholic, Protestant or Orthodox, have
gotten bogged down in halfheartedness and doubts ever since the
Lumières, the French Revolution, the 1870, 1914 and 1939 wars. The
Islamic umma is going to follow, because a certain type of
view on the limits between Good and Evil is going slowly
to vanish all across the globe.
The problem is not to judge berween Good and Evil and
punish Evil in the name of dogmas. The problem is to establish the
practice of love, that is, only Good, so Evil
disappears automatically. Neither whatever you believe in nor
however you pray can give salvation to you. Salvation
results only from the sum of the constituents of the soul:
love given, forgiveness granted, peace
made, freedom (Rév d'Arès 10/10) respected.
The days are over when the men of the Church and the faithful used
to exercise control over History and pretend to be unaware of the
slaughter of Cathars and Bogomils, the Inquisition, the
co-operation between religion and politics, love for warfare, the
vices of clergy, etcetera. Before long Islam will no more be able
to keep silent about the wrongs and murders committed in the
name of Allah. Other religions will set about modernizing
themselves.
Actually, men might well have not lost faith; they might be
looking for the solution of Evil's mystery. The solution is
delivered by The Revelation of Arès and its prophet,
but the world still consider them to be tall stories in addition
to the traditional tall stories. And when the world understands
that they are the right Path instead, we shall beware of
the strong religious people prone to resemble the Arès Word
in order to regain their supremacy and aura, in order to bounce
back. The Revelation of Arès is disegarded today, but it
will eventually rub off on some of its adversaries who will strive
to outlive it. Unfortunate confusions will be likely to
arise then, but we will traverse that minefield safely if we keep
capable of quietly retaining our natural flexibility. wisdom and patience;
we will come out of them unharmed.
The Children (Rev ofArès 13/5) of Life (24/3-5)
cannot find the Right Path by trying to make the law
of the rats (xix/24) fairer, forcing society to be better
through regulations, imposing a morality, doing away with nuclear
warfare, thrashing the wicked, making the police and the judges
amiabler, etc. The Children of Life will change
the world (28/7) only by changing their own
lives (30/11), regardless of their social standing, by
carrying out a revolution in their own lives, by turning
themselves into beings of love. We can progress
but by regarding each human life as sacrosaint, just as we regard
the Maker's likeness and resemblance as sacrosaint (Genesis
1/26).
The world will change indeed, if the Arès Pilgrim, once
he or she has turned too loving like the Father
(Rev of Arès 12/7), multiplies and makes himself or herself
the knight of faith, that Søren Kierkegaard talked about. The Arès
Pilgrim is to be resigned to suffering the circumstances
just as the knight of faith is, because he or she is aware that
his or her effort of love is just a real drop into the
ocean of efforts of love by plenty of generations
whether current or future. One Arès Pilgrim cannot be successful
when alone to achieve the Father's great Plan.
His or her love of the neighbor exposes him or her to
hazards, but it may help him or her climb the Heights,
which may be done only when all people together climb it
(25/4). He or she knows that love succeeds
only if it spreads in sheer force of numbers. He or she knows the
immediate impossibilities as well as the future possibilities by
the daring leap into the unfulfilled, that is trust in the
Father's Word. The knight of faith has fallen in love
with the king's daughter and he is aware that his love is getting
nowhere at present, but he thinks, "There is another way the girl
I love may be conquered, because I have faith that God fixes
everything." That is the profoundly existentialistic view of
genuine faith. Kierkegaard admired the knight of faith in helpless
love with the king's daughter. Kierkegaard thought that one needs
strength, vigor and freedom of mind to construct anything on
resignation. But the one that knows that miracles sprout and
blossom on resignation can do anything successfully. Wonders,
which are supposed to be beyond human forces, are sensibly
conceivable, however. Kierkegaard exclaimed, "Thanks to faith I
give nothing up. I get everything just as Abraham not only did not
give up Isaac, but also got him."

Whom am I sent to missionize?
A major preamble: For a long time I
used to mean "encountered by a missionary" by using the French
past participle or the qualifying French adjective
"missionné". I thought I could permanently use that word in
this sense, which is totally opposed to the French word usage,
just as I use French words like pénitence or pénitent.
However, pénitence and pénitent appear in
The Revelation of Arès, so I cannot keep clear of
them. This is not the case for the French verb missionner, to
the French meaning of which I have to come back.
As the blog is read by a lot of curious persons or foreigners
who make use of dictionaries, I have to give meaning of "sent
out on mission" to the French past participle or the
qualifying French adjective "missionné". So the title of this
entry "Vers qui suis-je missionné?" means "Whom am I sent to
missionize?"
Whom am I sent to missionize? I am
not sent out to the men and women, the multitude, whom I would
like to convert, but I am sent out to the ripe or ripened
wheat heads, the people worth harvesting
(Rev of Arès 5/2, 6/4),
those who almost always unknowingly bear premises of penitence
and love, which are bound to save the world from the
sin of sins (38/2). Other people may possibly be
converted by my mission, indeed, but this would happen
fortuitously; they are not the persons the Father sends me out
to missionize. They are the scarce inextinguishable miracles of
the eternal childbirth by Life (24/5).
____________________________________
At first I thought I was sent to missionize
the global humanity, because The Revelation of Arès gets
to speak to all of men. Next, I read the Word of Arès more
carefully, so I understood that Its readers were supposed to be
people capable of understanding It quickly, gifted with
metaphysics, qualified to imagine the True beyond
religious commonplaces and clichés or mental stereotypes, in the
breathtakingly distant infinite of The Revelation of Arès.
I have had some indication as to the existence of the
Inexpressible, the Power (Rev of Arès 12/4) or Life
(24/3-5), that expresses Itself always obliquely
through Messengers or Theophanies and never shows up
other than through the vast cosmos and all of the manifestations
of life.
I have sometimes ventured to talk about eternal depths or
profundities or about absolute freedom (Rev of Arès 10/10) to
utterly unprepared people, but I have forever found
that I soon exceeded the spiritual accessibility threshold of the
system's captives, that is, a vast number of human beings. I
disconcerted them but failed to enlighten them. I came to
understand that it was prudent not to come to topics about the
freedom sub specie æternitatis, marked by eternity, a
major which hermeneutic principle, which prompts people to a way
of timeless reading of the Bible, a way neither diachronic nor
social or political : "In the Word you do not find either a
front-word or a post-word".
On the sinful Earth, ever since Adam (Rev od Arès
2/1-5), ever since the noise entered his head (vii/7),
freedom has never been given; freedom can only be gained through penitence
and love. On Earth there are just resistances
which man has to conquer, barriers which man has to overcome; all
of dreams are abstract and there are not many humans able to make
them come true. The small remnant (Rev of Arès 24/1) is
able to do so. Moreover, even the most zealous missionary cannot
tell all that he has to tell. He or she has to speak elliptically.
Should I warn a casual interlocutor that the tree of Evil is shaky
and might well fall upon the world, I do not need to make a speech
; I scream only, "Just be careful of the sin of sins (38/2),
a disaster!", but how many people understand me ?
"A work of the mind is inevitably allusive," said Sartre, but as
much as we can tell unkown persons on the street is worse than
allusive, it is inevitably very summary, rudimentary. Barring a
miracle, which may occur at times, who is capable of changing
his or her way of life(Rev of Arès 30/11) just
hearing a word by a street missionnary? It too is almost always
useless to prompt anyone to read The Revelation of Arès,
because such a reading by any disassociated mind is very soon
given up; what is more, that mind is unfavourably impressed, due
to a feeling of emptiness, weirdness or pointlessness.
Unless he is specially clear-headed, the average human is not
rashly prone to jump into the Fire (Rev of Arès xLi/7)
barrier, which separates him from the eternal Universe(12/4),
to which the Word calls him on to join. Except when the
uncommon wheat ear appears, very few men nowadays think
that that which we have to tell them is worth the time and effort
required to examine it. Not because the men of today do not wait
for a message. They wait for a message, but our messsage is not
the message they are waiting for. They wait for a message that
religion, or politics, or science will never send. Our problem is
that we have to drive home that discrepancy, which has pushed the
world into a blind alley and prevented it from finding the right
way towards the Marvels (33/8). Who is that ripe wheat ear that I am sent to
missionize?There is no indication in The
Revelation of Arès. After a few minutes dialog on a
sidewalk, I can only feel the slight warmth of the candlestick
(Rev of Arès 32/5), the lampshade of which the human being
might well be. But my acumen distorted by my love of the
neighbor and my incessant hope, cannot guarantee anything.
The candlestick may be an atheist likeable even though
incurable or a devout believer who thinks with a great religious
passion that his or her relation to God is a personalized
relationship, or a definitive follower of the "Eastern wisdom" or
the "occult arts", or a naïve human who has the vague faith of the
coalman, in short, he or she may be anyone among the vast masses
of people clinging to any principle loosely connected to my own
ideal. Will that person I encounter be able to help me change
History? Then I start thinking back of Hippolyte Taine and his
environmental theory (I discuss this lately). The principle that
the ripe wheat ear seems to adhere to, which quite
often makes the missionary locate him or her, may be anything the
apostle may detect through love, but not through his or
her intellect, because love is the funnel through which
an unseen breeze of profound spirituality continuously passes, a
spirituality that some human beings emit..
We are taught that Hyppolite Taine, the inventor of the
environmental theory, wanted to build a scientific History. I
doubt it. I think that he actually was looking for a historical
man easy to spot or locate. I likewise strive to locate a
forthcoming Arès Pilgrim of the small remnant, a builder
of the world changed, the beginning of another History.
History either past or future is never built from sources
substantiated, because nothing is ever totally substantiated, but
the small remnant's Arès Pilgrim to come will build up
without any observable roots, because he is not at the time of the
encounter the one he or she will later be when he is a penitent
and havester. On the one hand, I never venture
onto a too early assessment of the reasons to be of the human
being I encounter. On the other hand I believe in miracles, I
believe in re-creation, which may be a self-recreation qui
peut-être son auto-recrétion, which may make him or her a modeller
of the future. Thus, the time of the encounter may be in touch
with the future as well as the past: the ripe wheat is
and will be. My intuition, which has been refined by faith and
prayer, has forebodings, it never keeps away uncertainty as well
as certainty.
It is inevitable that you cannot catch the feelings, even those
reduced to a minimum, in a human being casually encountered. You
can only make a guess at them. Everything is possible as well as
impossible; which takes me to the need to find him or her out and,
what is more, create him or her. Things whether mental or
spiritual have dependencies and conditions. Will the man or woman
I encounter have the essential prerequisite for taking part in the
change of the world? There are three ways in which
the events of History whether past or future may be ranked: Race,
environment, time. The same goes for uncovering the ripe
wheat ear. The race has nothing to do with the skin color;
it is nothing else than the race The Book (Rev of
Arès xii/5) tells about. It is that which the apostle
senses at first before he senses the environment in wich no fierce
intolerance should rule, for the environment where the being
encountered lives is major. As for the time we are highlighted by
the general mechanism of human life — Is the piston at the top?
below? halfway? — and by the usual dialectics of the subject, that
one can localize during the the verbal exchange.
Actually, during the encounter the apostle can only catch sight or
rather hope for the range of capabilites of the person
encountered. Of course, nothing gives any argument to conclude
that there is no mistake, because anything important that man
creates in History is never more than a hunch in the beginning.
Taine — why am I thinking of that guy that assiduously? — told
about "laws of human vegetation," , if I remember correctly. Is
there any human being that would not be filled with metaphores
with regard to the trend of man vegetation towards continual
changes and complexity? "The circumstances, that influence the
human plants, change again and again in order to develop some
species, but etiolate others." Taine wrote in substance,
"Sometimes there is a cold greenhouse, sometimes a tepid one,
sometimes a hot one." To see a real Arès Pilgrim of the small
remnant developping does not only depend on the person, it
also depends on his or her environment and on time(Rev of Arès 12/6). At the beginning I can only evaluate
whether the person I have encountered is endowed with the
necessary spiritual subtelty.
The ripe wheat ear is not sitting on a decree of
Providence. We have to make him or her an Arès Pilgrim of the small
remnant, if that may happen ever. The Father has not made
each of us only a harvester. He has made each of us a
miller, too, and then a baker. Every person encountered might well
be a prophet one day, who will help change the
world (Rev of Arès 28/7) by dint of changing the
persons encountered into prophets. Prophetism is a
global movement; I am just the precursor of it.
A street pulsing with life is running like a
river, but just stop anyone and you blow out the river to
impenetrable, insoluble, turbid splashes!
Just speak to the human you have stopped; unless he or she is
ahead of time drastically resistant or permeable to that which
you tell, you in 95% of cases will have in front of you an
enigmatic splash. Are you listened to? The listener more
often than not is just an imitative creature, who has learned
how to look interested. Are you repelled? You cannot know
whether you are repelled by someone that does not have time, or
someone that does not like you, or someone whose concerns or own
self keep away from anything.
Are you aware of whatever makes your apostolate that
impenetrant?
This is so because the world is stiffened by its secrets.
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
The world is secret and, trust me, it is secret
to the Creator likewise. Had the mankind ever been docile
and transparent to Him, He would have never sent out prophets
to them and tried restoring His Family ever since Adam's
defection (Rev of Arès 1/1-5, vii/7-13). Talking like
that rings sassy and even offensive in the ears of religious
adulators, but this is that which the global situation puts
forward: With everything that is happening, it is as though the
too much loving Father had conditioned Himself for the Child
(13/5) that He had made man, His Image and
Likeness (Genesis 1/26-27) by sharing His Freedom
(10/10) Attribute with him. Why does The
Revelation of Arès start its paraenesis by sadly reminding
of Adam's disastrous rebelliousness (Rev of Arès 2/1-5),
after its severe rude remark towards the clergyman that it
lectures, its very personal thunderous introduction versus me (1/1-12)?
It is because Adam is the restive root of the huge Tree
of Creation, the created rebel Child (13/5) who pollutes
its sap everywhere up to the infinity.
The mission of the Arès pilgrims is not to found a new religion or
mysticism, but it is to spread the True (Rev of Arès
xxxiv/1-4) and to harvest apostles of the True.
The True advises man to become penitent(8/6)
by learning how to love, forgive, make peace, free
himself from all prejudices, and reminds the masses that they
devote themselves to misfortune if they keep on turning down or
ignoring the Creator's sublime Design (28/27) by
retaining part of their pre-genesic animal life, which is
impulsive albeit exciting, indeed, but also complex, painful
and fatal.
Secret begins early. Children and teenagers begin keeping their
thoughts secret when they are unheard or misunderstood. Such was
the case for me. After my father died in March 1942, when I was in
my thirteenth year, I as a teenager was going to live with my
elder sister, Cécile, who would soon become accustomed to keep her
little secrets, which she shared with nobody ever, and my mother,
Lucie. It became increasingly clear that we my mother and I
disagreed about almost everything, so I began keeping my thoughts
non-shareable within me for my adolescence years. My nature was
not secret, though. Later on, we my wife Christiane and I would
have no secrets for each other and raise our three daughters
ensuring that they would never be afraid to express their feelings
and viewpoints, whatsoever. That desire of openness and
straightforwardness under one roof permitted us in contrast to our
candor to realize the sort of cover-up that used to stifle life
nearly everywhere the world over. In particular, secrecy, that
obscures or disguises the thoughts of people whom the apostle
approaches in the street, is a very big problem, because it delays
knowing the other one and finding the means to be listened to by
him or her.
Only an human being that gives up his or her secrets can re-create
the world and open up to the future. Nowadays, in order to elude
Big Brother and his slaves, human beings have made themselves
puppets, the secrets of which pull the strings; they have made the
world a savage tight absurdity. As for the apostle, he should
strive to liberate from his or her secret thoughts and voids the
man he or she meets, all the more the proselyte. The apostle
cannot lose heart against the innumerable human who has come to
put lampshades on his or her conscience and conceal his or her
secret thoughts and voids. That human, who however may be a ripe
ear of corn, is unfit for penitence ; he or she
cannot receive anything from the world and give anything to he
world; he or she is just a signpost in the middle of the desert,
which is to be transplanted in the middle of the Field (Rev
of Arès 5/2-6, 13/7, 14/1, etc.). Our mission has to be
aware of this problem, which is not insuperable, but which is
difficult, cryptic, recondite, and which requires a relentless
search for the right Light.
Egotism, mistrust, hyperprudence, apprehension, embarrassment,
caution, the citadel of habits, disregard, apathy and
even courtesy at times are secrets which inhibit freedom, and
which mummify (Rev of Arès xLix/7)
conscience. The sui generis conscience, when double-locked, can do
nothing for the world's conscience (polone,
xxxix/12-13) and that is how the world is dying.
Secrecy stiffens man more than haughtiness. When a human cannot
any more share himself, he or she stop existing. It is impossible
to give back life to Life if you do not send to hell all
that makes a being a non-being, that is, secrets, whatever they
may be. A human being cannot change his or her life or
find joy and merriment (30/11) if he or she
fails to cast out his or her secrets, that is, the citadel
we have to lay siege to.
The memory of the beginnings tells the story of the Early
Christians before the regulatory Church appears and puts them in
chains. Among other features of the early Christianity were the
reading of prophets, the sharing of means of sustenance,
prayer of joy and hope instead of the vested, begging, grim Jewish
prayer, the fraternal communion, the practice of pouring out their
hearts (Acts of the Apostle 19/18) so as to unload the
secret thoughts, which poison the relationship life. To get rid of
one's secret thoughts was not really novel in the Jewish society
(Books of Baruch, Daniel), but in the early Christendom
it was to become a practice that would make general penitence
fit to win over the people (Acts of the Apostles 2/47).s
Football invigorates the mind, so there
might be an urgent need for reopening stadiums. By contrast, the
government do not seem in a hurry to leave those to
gather together who long to relive the encounter with the
Life (Rev of Arès 24/3-5) and the Embrace(38/6) with the Mother-Father.
Still nothing informs us that we will be allowed freely
(Rev of Arès 10/10)to take the Fire(xLi/7)
at Arès in 2022, but as soon as I am informed that all is
authorized anew, I will announce it in the blog.

The nanny State, which claims that it is
divinely accountable for the lives of the French, who it seemingly
thinks are eternal, like a breast-feeding goddess thinks that a
flying dragon calling for human sacrifices is swooping down on her
nurslings, has shut doors, windows and shutters of nursery France
by nailing them up and even nailing down the presumptive martyrs
at home. It's no joke! According to the Olympic
mathematics between 300,000 and 500,000 human sacrifices to the
fierce virus god were supposed to be expected (The newspaper "Le
Monde" March 2020).
The casualties, Zeus be praised!, were ten times less (and even
less so because of comorbiditie, actually) numerous thanks to
saint Emmanuel of the Developing Republic, who faced the hydra. It
appears that he probably inspired by ancestor Theodor of Amasea —
saint Theodore of Amasea in the Greek Church, who would later
become saint George in the Catholic Church — killed the dragon by
stabbing it tens of millions times into the deltoids with his
spear. Theodore had seen his victory as the sign that God
considered him as ready to face martyrdom, but saint Emmanuel of
the Developing Republic is not a superstitious innocent; he has
won scientifically! Nevertheless, he is somewhat unsure about his
triumph, he persists in keeping the French people gagged and
restricted to a lot of sanitary limitations until...
Well, by the way, until when?
Will we have to keep the Arès Pilgrimage shut for the third year
in a row? This, to my mind, is more than an infringement of
freedom, this is a barrier to the basic function of man, which
consists in enriching the mind, creating the soul,
binding to the very meaning of life, that is, building destiny, love,
faith, extending life to infinity. Certainly none of men needs a
pilgrimage for that. All man has to do is love, which is
the focus of penitence, and which reunites you with the
Creative Love. But vitalizing love in a place
like Arès where the Fire of Creative Love has
broken out empowers the Will to Be. This is why we are
spending a difficult time being unaware of whether opening the
House of the Saint Word is to be authorized or unauthorized with
total freedom in 2022, and whether we will be allowed to put our
hope under the life-giving Water of Life.
Saint Emmanuel of the Developping Republic has stopped an activity
more important than economic activity, I mean spiritual activity
that extends to the eternal outcome.
Says Sister Chantal C. chairwoman of the Pilgrimage of Arès, "The
Lourdes pilgrimage has taken place in 2021, but under the iron
rule of duties suitable for a religion which revels in laws and
rules, and which sees a pilgrimage as devotion on a place where
the extraordinary hangs overall: conversion, recovery, healing,
miracles, etc. We Arès Pilgrims beg to differ. as we do not go on
a Pilgrimage to Arès because the Maker might work Wonders
there, since His Wonders (Rev of Arès 33/8)
already lie within us (5/1), but we go there only
because, just as some landscapes give delight and inspiration, the
place makes it easier to understand the Message that
Heaven launched in 1974 and 1977 and to determine what to do with
your life.
The Pilgrimage to Arès is the haze before the Dawn (Rev of
Arès xix/18), the free admission into the Mystery
(33/19); freedom is its main feature, because it has been
founded for the free (10/10) Children (13/5). We cannot
see how wearing a mask, distancing from one another, signs on the
ground, tough scrutiny, and so on, could match anything that we
expect from the Saint's place. There is a single imperative, which
is obvious: peace, respect for other pilgrims. For
the rest, every pilgrim goes anywhere all over the holy place of
Theophanies just as his or her soul will do throughout
the unlimited Universe, every pilgrim prays or meditates
according to his or her own determination, because the Creator Who
manifested Himself there in 1977 is the free Creator of
all of the free humans beings
At Arès, France, in 1974 and 1977, the
absolute Being makes a frail (Rev of Arès xLvii/9)
contemptible (21/3)being's throat
(xxxi/16)a Light (ix/8)
fountain, a just prophet (xxxvii/2), whom He
names Mikal (xLvii/9) or
the hawk (or falcon xvi/14-15, xix/24, xLv/14-26).The hawk begets other hawks (xLv/14).
Whenever a missionary says this to people he or she meets, most
of them do not care and even scoff at it. They cannot understand
— understand in an absolute sense — that the event of Arès opens
an unhoped-for door to Good, to the root of Eternity,
in other words to the Being that only a few earthlings conscious
that they are some dust from the Being can sense.
The Being is more than God; It is Life and All that
stems from It infinitely.
For almost forty eight years I have slowly, though firmly,
realized that the Being as well as His vestige which the being
is — I am, you are, the other one is the being in an effort to
retrieve the Being, or Life (Rev of Arès 24/5) —
are not philosophical concepts. Being and being as words are
just noise (ii/7-13, vii/4-16, xi/4-6, etc.)
and sinful humans cannot hear well but the noise,
though by the exercise of love, which The
Revelation of Arès calls penitence, they can
sense the distant track of the Being in the mists of Truth. When I say Being and Non Being or being and non being, I
have Parmenides (circa 500 before Christ) in mind, who sang
"the Being is" but the "Non Being is not".
But what is It ? What is It not ? The Revelation of Arès gives an answer: Open your
throat, give the Word, (so) It is (i/4).
____________________________________
All that brings back the human to his spiritual
Chilhood (Rev of Arès 13/5), which the Word of
Arès calls Salvation, is the Being.
The converse is the Non Being, specifically that which does not save
or is not saved.
By beings, for want of a right word in man's language, which
is always inadequate, we can mean the sinful vestiges of
the Being, that is, all of sinners, us
included.
Masses at this time constitute the huge citadel, which
the cement of sin has concreted (rejection of the Light),
the transient system of Non Being that Adam once
created (Rev of Arès 2/1-5) opposite Life or
opposite the Being that Adam did not want and his descendants
still do not want.
The Non Being, which is a reality, but a
nothingness by nature — nothingness is void, but takes up a large
amount of space, hence its reality —, is the Being what Adam
once created (Rev of Arès 2/1-5), it is the Being turned
down, life generating the void or at least the threat of
the void. Nowadays the being, which is a debris of the Being,
still like better aging, illness and death than his MotherLife. The non being likes better the
neverending vengeance (27/9) of his justice than
never-ending love. Why? This is a mystery.
We are sent out to get the world out of that mystery.
Would anyone understand what the being is, who is a piece of Being
debris, he or she must bear in mind that the being dies after a
few decades of life under illusions, notably illusion about his or
her existentiality and sustainability.
The woman bears the organs of human genesis, so she is the flower
of the short earthly life; the man pollinates from flower to
flowerer. Once the being is dead, he or she can outlast himself or
herself through the soul, but he or she has no sex or
brain anymore. Only Mercy makes him or her last. The being is to
last ad infinitum only if he or she used to love his or
hers neighbor when terrestrial; love gives capability of
returning to root Being, that is, the One, Love, Life
(24/3-5). Abraham, Zoroaster, Moses, Buddha, Jesus,
Mouhamad, and so on, are possibly beings that are melted or being
melting into into the Being. sont possiblement des êtres
fondus ou en cours de fusion dans l'Être. Ici bas on ne peut rien
percevoir du rapport entre être et Être.
Note that here below one cannot perceive by the senses the link
between being and Being. Only metaphysics-eyed people can.
We Arès Pilgrims are assigned the task of deconstructing the citadel
of the world (Rev of Arès 28/7), its way of life as well
as its philosophy. We have to make the Children (13/5)
of Life (24/5) see the Light again(12/4).
This is a hard task entirely left to man's will, because he has
been created free (10/10), he cannot but live free,
and because the Maker cannot remove freedom from man and avoid
destroying the crown jewel of His Creation.
The deconstruction of the citadel of the world
was begun by Noah, Abraham, Moses, the prophet, Buddha, Jesus,
Mouhamad and others who were milestones along the paths towards
the Heights. The Arès Pilgrim are a new milestone. Is it to
be the last one? There is an absence of precisions about it in The
Revelation of Arès, because The Revelation of Arès
does not tell fortunes, it leaves up to man, the Child
(Rév d'Arès 13/5), to recreate himself freely. It tells man
only this : Be a penitent (10/6, 33/32)! Man grows or
does not grow into a penitent or, in metaphysical
language, he is or he is not. The Eternal tells Moses :
I am Who is
(or I am Who I am).
Tell the sons of Israel:
"I am has sent me to you" (Exodus 3/14).
Being in an absolute sense means Being
eternally Sanctity, Power and Light (Rev
of Arès 12/4) in infinite reference to the conscience of Good. What am I really?
If I am what the world has made me, I am not,
but the world is, the world which is liable
to spoilage and destructible.
If I am the Child (Rev of Arès 13/5) if the
Mother-Father who has returned to me (viii/6),
I am the being who is to return to the absolute Being.
I am completely free to choose (Rev of Arès 10/10);
I freely am penitent or non-penitent, as The
Revelation of Arès goes.
The man in the street, whom I address usually, fails to understand
how free he is either to be nothing or reintegrate the
Being farther than the Infinite.
I devoted myself to the subsidiary from 1929 to 1974; I have given
myself to the necessary ever since 1974, and even not of my own
accord. Life called on me a mediocre guy to follow It.
Why me ? It is not known. That's what it was then, for the being
and the Being do not merge in this world, they are just relatives.
I have been called on to awake in man's nature love,forgiveness,
peace,intelligence big-hearted and free
from all prejudices, in short, the Attributes of the
Being or of Life from Whom man has issued. Ever
since 1974 I have devoted myself to metaphysical puzzlement, which
is the only item worth fretting about — what sort of substratum is
mine and is it one of destiny? —, because the Mother-Father
has asked me to refute that which the thinking animal carelessly
names life. Yet, life is something else, to live is to be
in order to retrieve the Being. To be is not a state or
condition like a stone is a stone on a footpath or an oak is an
oak in a forest. To be a human is an end in itself just as God,
the Father, Allah, the Eternal, or Life is an
End in Himself.
If, on the one hand, Life is the Being in the
Infinite and if, as Life has scattered into the
Infinite, to be a human means to live among the countless living,
and if, on the other hand, Life si the clearest Name The
Revelation of Arès gives to God, the Father, the Maker (9/6,
24/3-5, 25/3, 38/5, 39/5, xix/26), the global and coherent
view of the Being and all the beings generated by the Being
deserves and summons the courage of an acceptance, even though the
occurence, albeit huge, has kept mysterious because it is
traceless and can only be detected by a sixth sense, in other
words metaphysical. The major issue of the earthly future is
the clash between the men that have and the men that have
not the sixth sense, at the expense of love and happiness. Lively in peace Mikal should be, says The Revelation
of Arès (xxii/21) regarding the hawk.Lively=completely
living, that is, living and having the
metaphysical sense. Each fledgling (xLv/14)
has to be lively in turn, sooner or later.
The Being exists, as He spoke to men at Arès, France. Does the Non
Being exist? It is the void, Democritus said. Some humans are
definitive non beings and are going to remain so as specters
(Rev of Arès 4/6-7, 16/15-16, 31/2, etc.). But almost all
humans are provisional non beings. Only penitents can be
claimed to cope with it.
The absolute Being is a Saint, a Powerful one, One of Light
(Rev of Arès 12/4) ; He is Love (12/7, 32/3). We
know that there are large amounts of lives, starting with the
lives of the fickle penitents that we are, wich are just
sporadic epigones of Life, but we hope that this flaw
will not prevent us from ascending to the Heights.
Translation into French of Parmenides of
Elea's part of poem "On nature".
Pour ceux qu'intéresse ce texte, qui n'est pas Parole
de Dieu, mais qui est prémisse à Celle-ci, car il est impossible
que le Père de l'Univers (Rév d'Arès 12/4) n'ait
commencé à s'exprimer aux humains, Ses Enfants (13/5),
qu'en Palestine. Le Père n'a sans nul doute jamais cessé de
s'exprimer partout sur Terre aux Hommes après le mauvais choix d'Adam
(2/1-5) et bien avant que n'existe la Bible.
Hé bien ! je vais parler, et toi, écoute mes paroles: je te dirai
quels sont les deux seuls procédés de recherche qu’il faut
reconnaître. L’un consiste à montrer que l’être est, et que le
non-être n’est pas: celui-ci est le chemin de la croyance; car la
vérité l’accompagne. L’autre consiste à prétendre que l’être n’est
pas, et qu’il ne peut y avoir que le non-être; et je dis que
celui-ci est la voie de l’erreur complète. En effet, on ne peut ni
connaître le non-être, puisqu’il est impossible, ni l’exprimer en
paroles.
Car la pensée est la même chose que l’être.
Peu importe par où je commencerai, puisque je reviendrai sur mes
pas.
Il faut que la parole et la pensée soient de l’être; car l’être
existe, et le non-être n’est rien.
N’oublie pas ces paroles; et d’abord, éloigne ta pensée de cette
voie. Ensuite, laisse de côté celle où errent incertains les
mortels ignorants, dont l’esprit flotte agité par le doute ils
sont emportés, sourds, aveugles, et sans se connaître, comme une
race insensée, ceux qui regardent l’être et le non-être à la fois
comme une même chose et comme une chose différente; ils sont tous
engagés dans une route sans issue.
Mais toi, éloigne ta pensée de cette route, et que la coutume ne
te précipite pas dans ce chemin vague, où l’on consulte des yeux
aveugles, des oreilles et une langue retentissantes; mais examine,
avec ta raison, la démonstration savante que je te propose. Il ne
reste plus qu’un procédé; c’est celui qui consiste à poser l’être.
Dans cette voie, bien des signes se présentent pour montrer que
l’être est sans naissance et sans destruction, qu’il est un tout
d’une seule espèce, immobile et infini; qu’il n’a ni passé, ni
futur, puisqu’il est maintenant tout entier à la fois, et qu’il
est un sans discontinuité. Quelle origine, en effet, lui
chercheras-tu ? D’où et comment le feras-tu croître ? Je
ne te laisserai ni dire, ni penser qu’il vient du non-être; car le
non-être ne peut se dire ni se comprendre. Et quelle nécessité,
agissant après plutôt qu’avant, aurait poussé l’être à sortir du
néant ?
Donc il faut admettre, d’une manière absolue, ou l’être, ou le
non-être.
Et jamais de l’être la raison ne pourra faire sortir autre chose
que lui-même. C’est pourquoi le destin ne lâche point ses liens de
manière à permettre à l’être de naître ou de périr, mais le
maintient immobile. La décision à ce sujet est tout entière dans
ces mots: l’être ou le non-être. Il a donc été conclu, comme cela
devait être, qu’il faut laisser là ce procédé inintelligible,
inexprimable; car il n’est pas le chemin de la vérité, et que
l’autre est réel et vrai. Comment, ensuite, l’être viendrait-il à
exister ? Et comment naîtrait-il ? S’il vient à naître,
c’est qu’il n’est pas, et de même s’il doit exister un jour. Ainsi
se détruisent et deviennent inadmissibles sa naissance et sa mort.
Il n’est pas divisible, puisqu’il est en tout semblable à
lui-même, et qu’il n’y a point en lui de côté plus fort ni plus
faible, qui l’empêche de se tenir uni et cohérent; mais il est
tout plein de l’être, et de la sorte il forme un tout continu,
puisque l’être touche à l’être.
Mais l’être est immuable dans les limites de ses grands liens; il
n’a ni commencement ni fin, puisque la nais-sance et la mort se
sont retirés fort loin de lui, et que la conviction vraie les a
repoussées. Il reste donc le même en lui-même et demeure en soi:
ainsi il reste stable; car une forte unité le retient sous la
puissance des liens et le presse tout autour.
C’est, pourquoi il n’est pas admissible qu’il ne soit pas infini;
car il est l’être qui ne manque de rien, et s’il ne l’était pas,
il manquerait de tout. Contemple fortement ces choses, qui sont
présentes à l’esprit, quoique absentes (pour les sens); car rien
n’empêchera l’être d’être uni à l’être, et rien ne fera qu’il soit
dispersé entièrement et de tous côtés dans son arrangement, ni
qu’il soit reconstruit.
Or, la pensée est identique à son objet. En effet, sans l’être,
sur lequel elle repose, vous ne trouverez pas la pensée; car rien
n’est ni ne sera, excepté l’être, puisque la nécessité a voulu que
l’être fût le nom unique et immobile du tout, quelles que fussent
à ce sujet les opinions des mortels, qui regardent la naissance et
la mort comme des choses vraies, ainsi que l’être et le non-être,
le mouvement, et le changement brillant des couleurs.
Or, l’être possède la perfection suprême, étant semblable à une
sphère entièrement ronde, qui du centre à la circonférence serait
partout égale et pareille; car il ne peut y avoir dans l’être une
partie plus forte, ni une partie plus faible que l’autre. 45. En
effet le non-être, n’étant pas, ne saurait empêcher l’être de
former un tout homogène, et l’être ne saurait être privé d’être,
ici davantage, là moins, puisqu’au contraire il est tout entier
incorruptible; car il demeure égal de tous côtés dans ses limites.
Je termine ici ma démonstration et mes réflexions au sujet de la
vérité: apprends ensuite les opinions des mortels, en écoutant la
trompeuse harmonie de mes vers. Les hommes ont prétendu signaler
deux espèces d’objets, dont l’une ne peut être admise, et en cela
ils se sont trompés ils les ont jugées de nature contraire, et
leur ont appliqué des désignations entièrement séparées. Ils ont
distingué d’une part le feu éthéré de la flamme, léger, très peu
consistant, entièrement semblable à lui-même et différent de
l’autre espèce; d’autre part celle-ci, qui a également sa nature
propre, savoir, à l’opposé, la nuit obscure, matière épaisse et
lourde. Je t’exposerai l’arrangement de tout cela, afin que tu
n’ignores rien des opinions des mortels.
August 23, 2021 (233US) Truth and the True
None of absolute Truth is within
the reach of sinners.
And it just so happens that all of men have been sinners
ever since Adam's days (Rev of Arès 2/1-5,
vii/7-16). Only relative truths are within our reach; in Arès' Word
they are called the True (ii/8-9, xxviii/21, xxxiv/1-4).
In The Book, a Revelation on the Father's terms, the
True is everywhere the substitute for Truth,
which is peculiar to The Gospel delivered in Arès by
Jesus.
____________________________________
What's more, no unquestionable truth is within
the reach of any experimental science, because a counterexample
just might appear in all fields, in mathematics because the
coherence of the terms depends on the selection of axioms, or in
astrophysics, or in the ever-changing field of man's thinking and
business.
Absolute Truth is inaccessible in metaphysics. Even
though we take as granted for being true the Father's
Sanctity, Power and Light (Rev of Arès 12/4) or the Life
(24/3-5, 25/3, 38/5, xix/26) as the Father's
substance and nature; these points of Truth are
indefinable, unanalyzable, nebulous.
And even from a material point of view, continents and islands
facing onto the sea, death in the face of life, stars facing each
other, are just temporary conditional truths, because everything
everywhere constantly moves and changes shape and position either
quickly or imperceptibly.
The Voice that spoke in Arès in 1974 and 1977
undoubtedly expressed absolute Truth, because It
ignores uncertainty, error or the lie, which put a great strain on
man's statements, but we are enervated by sin, the
dilusions of our self-importance, and unable to detect absolute Truth.
The number one problem in the sinful world is the
problem of the truth, which has been ruined by the freedom of
confusion emerging from the hubris as substitute for the freedom
of Good which had emerged from love. Once love
of neighbor was turned down by Adam, the name
assigned to the human creature, maybe not that long ago, mankind
disintegrated and dominations appeared (Rev of
Arès 2/1-5, vii/7-16) religious, political, philosophical,
legalistic, scientific; they made up truths, which each domination
calls the truth still nowadays. Finally, none of laws in the
world's amphigory of numberless laws accepts contestation, so the
world is just made of an amphigory of injustices and, worst of
all, the complete extinction of the notion of love and forgiveness
among judges. Hence the difficult way of life of the biofrail
mortal beings the disintegration of the Absolute has made us. The
Absolute will not re-appear until the first light of the Day
(Rev of Arès 31/8), first from a distance and then
drawing near little by little after a multi-millennial night of sin,
which only penitence can overcome (30/11). The Revelation of Arès tells the True instead
of Truth, that is overly indefinite today. In the verse:
I have led their journey (of the scandalized) to the Truth
(28/6), Truth means a direction, but not a goal
reached. In the verse: The Truth is the world has to change
(28/7), Truth actually means "future sole solution" and has
no current meaning. Even in the verse: I have spoken in
parables to strengthen your trust and give you the Truth with noambiguity (38/5), Truth has not an absolute meaning,
because parables are just allegories which raise an
inapproximable Teaching, which sin hides from sinners.
Is there any word more inadequate than the word truth in man's
language?
A bicycle stays upright when running thanks to the gyroscope
effect, but this is a True likely to change tomorrow,
since the Saint (or Holy one) told me: (When)
I say : "The air (was) thin, (but) it is thick (now)," the ship
falls like the stag into the ravine (Rev of Arès xvi/11),
in other words: the chemical and physical laws are tentative and
might alter. Whatever goes from the bottom up could go from the
top down. Even error may be just considered as falsehood
according to the need to tell or hear, for today's light is likely
to be the dark tomorrow. There is also the need to summarize,
oversimplify or put things into perspective, the erroneous
memories, confusion, brain fatigue, which may be blurring the True
and be deemed as lies. As to the real lie, which is an intentional
deceit, it is often the most harmful sin because it
probably is the biggest cause of evil in the current state of
knowledge and human relations, but it may happen to turn into
tomorrow's True, if it originates from a benevolent
imagination or a necessity to anticipate.
Life (Rev of Arès 24/3-5) opens the True and
allows a ray of blinding Light of Truth to
pass to us through that fanlight in order to trigger a saving change
among its Children (13/5). But we are still too sinful
to find out how to use that prodigy. From January 15 to April 13,
1974, Jesus came to me and delivered The Gospel Revealed in
Arès to me, and from October 2 to November 22, 1977, the
Father manifested Himself to me in an extraordinary festival of
lights, sounds and the Voice that gave me The Book.
I thus testify two tremendous events honestly and carefully.
However, I soon discovered that the veracity of a testimony brings
about conviction and change of life (30/11) but among
very few people. We are still too sinful to grow aware
of the proper way to use the True and the foreboding of
Truth. Had I given the absolute evidence that the entity
that spoke to me in 1974 was Jesus and that the entity that spoke
to me in 1977 was God, men however believe only what they want and
are able to believe. Amidst sinful masses everything is
circumscribed by the focuses, the accepted notions and the
prejudices. Therefore, the True and Truth are
unconnected with faith and the decision of changing the
way of life, which is a very important fact, because it factually
means that we have to learn how to match supernatural events with
man's mind. The acting belief at this time is just a mental
operation, which only a few people achieve more or less according
to their spiritual porosity. This is one of the big hurdles that
apostolate has to overcome.
How to express Truth? In spiritual matters there is no
other means but to bear witness to your belief. However, bearing
witness is always a questionable act. But, all the same, there are probabilities of going from a
tiny True to a trifle of Truth in
circumstances bigger than other circumstances. When an atheist
tells me : "God is a human invention," I reply: "You can say that
again. You're crowing about your atheism, but you are God
yourself. ." He gazes at me incredulously.
I continue: "The Bible says that man has been created in the
image and likeness of his Maker (Genesis 1/26-27) ;
the human creature and the Creator are virtually one, in fact."
It may be the case that error, which is constantly denounced for
the sake of accuracy, which is that important to materialists, is
profitable to the great expectations. An
acquaintance of mine, who was a
highly materialistic atheist, lost his wife and felt
devastating grief. At the funeral I told him: "I think you
consider her as nothing more now, just some dead flesh as dead as
a pile of rocks, as you remarked of your late mother. Mourning for
her is senseless, therefore ; replace her just as you replace the
pebbles in your garden." He unexpectedly outraged moved back a
step. I continued then : "However, you look unsure if the life of
your loved one is just a pile of rocks now. You are crying,
because your materialism might well be erring. Yet error, even the
merest error, is formative, because it alerts your mind; it gives
you pause to reflect. Doubt helps one to make progress. As long as
a man is overly sure of himself, he stops searching further, so Truth
stays beyond him. If you are doubtful, even slightly, you are a
man worthy of the tremendous values of the spirit. There are
failures which teach us much more than truths did in which we used
to believe previously. Pascal said: "Suffering teaches much more
than serene happiness can teach." My friend got annoyed with me—he
has remained so so far, I think—, but he started believing in
afterlife, which might be an initial turnaround into a larger
belief, which might be the first steps on the path that
leads from the True to Truth.
Truth is not sayable. But I wish I were mute rather
than unclear when I speak the True, because I often
happen to express myself quickly for lack of time for preparing my
statements. Speaking often means struggling, when I have to say
what is unsayable like low recalls of events or inaccessible
things like the afterlife, the state of the soul after
it has got rid of the brain and nerves, after the cells that drive
intelligence have rotten away. When you have to speak in a state
of transcending the self, you embroider, you rattle on. Sometimes,
it is the simplicity of what you are telling which make people
nonplussed, because everything has gotten complicated in the world
and much of what is too simplistic or oversimplified is just
perceived as shade in a thick haze. Yet, the work is much more
made by hearers than by authors. The storyteller is less capable
of telling stories that the hearer is capable of listening to
stories. So legends form. Who knows what is bound to survive or
disappear of all that is told? I think that all written works are
made by readers as well as writers. What is important is not what
is said, only the resulting experience is important. All the rest
has no importance.
