Gospel of Judas

PRELUDE:
Multitude of voices:
Keter-Hokhmah-Binah
Hesed-Gevurah-Tiferet
Netzah-Hod-Yesod-Malkuth
Keter-Hokhmah-Binah
Hesed-Gevurah-Tiferet
are spheres of the Holy truth.
GOSPEL OF JUDAS:
Narrator:
Jesus Christ is the son of the Godhead,
Whose blood is the wine and whose body is the bread,
That was partaken of at the Last Supper,
Where, within the house, away in an upper room,
The Christ took Judas Iscariot aside,
And told him he must betray his life.
Indeed, as it seems,
Judas was the only disciple who understood the teachings.
Judas:
Lord, I take thee at thy word,
But to do this task is quite absurd.
Why should I condemn thee to die,
When thou art the gift of eternal life?
Your request causes my heart much strife.
I ask you: why?
Jesus:
Judas, I speak to thee as thy Lord,
If I am to be Christ; if myself is the word,
Then I, comprised of abstract form,
Melded onto flesh and bone,
Must transcend beyond the physical life,
To be the risen Christ.
Narrator:
When Jesus had said all he needed to tell,
He departed from Judas to address the twelve, saying:
Jesus:
One of you will raise a church in my name,
But only evils shall occur within.
Narrator:
And Peter's face, it told, oh, of much pain.
His church is in vain.
And so the Lord went unto Gethsemane,
Where he sat and thought beneath a great old tree.
Whilst Judas cried long into the night,
What he must do felt wrong, but he knew it was right.
For how else could Jesus ascend to be the light,
The truth and the life.
Narrator & Judas:
And so the time came to do the deed,
Judas called the Sanhedrin, at once taking heed.
And he led them out to the great old tree,
Took Jesus' face in his hands and he kissed his cheek.
And said "Rabbi, oh look, for it is me,
So may it be."
Narrator:
And Jesus was taken to Golgotha and died,
But the soul is eternal - forever alive,
And so Jesus did become the word,
Spread around the Earth; from all ears heard.
So the Christ took Judas Iscariot aside,
And told him he must betray his life.

Monad Against Demiurge
03:47

MONAD AGAINST DEMIURGE:
Narrator:
First: the Monad there at the beginning,
Only abstract, not yet physical,
For matter had not
Yet been made material.
From the state of oneness and the
clause of omniscient mind,
Stem necessary consequences:
Further states unbound by time.
Voice of the Monad (existent already):
I am that which was at the beginning,
Sum of all the parts
Which are existent - in existence,
From the end unto the start.
I command all things,
Yet at the start I ruled ideas alone.
A world of things did not exist,
So there I did not set my throne.
Voice of the Demiurge (being born):
I am now awake,
I am the first thing to materialise,
I am the sphere of Malkuth,
I am the spark of dust and light.
I am the one who forges all life,
I am the one maintaining space,
I am the one you deem 'on high',
I am the 'it' in any place.
Narrator:
And so became these different planes,
Forged by these seperate being-states.
The Demiurge with matter and force,
The Monad with ideas and thoughts,
But too Monad with matter and force,
For Monad is the sum of all,
And too Monad with Demiurge form,
For Monad is the sum of all.
First: the Monad there at the beginning,
Only abstract, not yet physical,
For matter had not
Yet been made material.
From the state of oneness and the
clause of omniscient mind,
Stem necessary consequences:
Further states unbound by time.

THE SOPHIA OF JESUS CHRIST:
Jesus:
You wished to know.
You wished to be as one, so
As I was not one with you -
Wisdom not Logos, the flesh still untrue.
As you conceived alone,
You fell further from God's throne.
Jesus:
Oh I wished to fuse with thee;
The feminine aspect, for all eternity.
But then I was not formed...
A world of matter was not yet forged.
Jesus:
Oh you art not mine wife,
But woman reflected through mine life.
A world of matter was not yet forged.
But then I was not formed...
The feminine aspect, for all eternity -
Oh I wished to fuse with thee.
You fell further from God's throne,
As you conceived alone.
Wisdom not Logos, the flesh still untrue,
As I was not one with you .
You wished to be as one, so
You wished to know.
Oh I wished to fuse with thee;
The feminine aspect, for all eternity.
But then I was not formed...
A world of matter was not yet forged.
So you birthed the material plane,
Imperfect and evil, disordered and vain.
The modern soul, in mind of this,
Knows not that you still exist.

THE SECRET REVELATION OF JOHN:
Narrator:
John is his name, and he lives in a cave.
This is how his mind was saved.
Jesus had died and ascended far from reach,
But he did return, and continued to teach.
Jesus:
The Monad is one.
It is what begun
The existence of all;
From whom abstract would form.
I, Autogenes,
Seperate by degrees
From the Sophia
of the Epinoia.
Narrator:
Sophia made a form
Without her male consort.
The Demiurge then came,
Making the physical plane.
It called itself divine,
Unto Adam gave life,
Forged the world from the void,
And balance it destroyed.
John:
Oh, Lord, is it true?
The first being to self realise
Was not the Monad?
But the Demiurge with material lies?
Jesus:
The Monad is one.
It is what begun
The existence of all;
From whom abstract would form.
I, Autogenes,
Seperate by degrees
From the Sophia
of the Epinoia.

PRAYER OF THE APOSTLE PAUL:
Paul:
Give me your mercy;
My redeemer - redeem me,
For I am yours,
The one who has come forth.
You are my mind;
bring me forth!
You are my treasure house;
Eternal Lord.
You are my repose;
Give me the perfect thing that cannot be known.
You are my fullness;
Of abstract throne.
Give me your mercy;
My redeemer - redeem me,
For I am yours:
The one who has come forth.
O Lord,
I say it to thee:
"The word of the baptists
And the catholics are heresy".
O Lord,
I know it of thee:
"The Jesus of the Bible,
Is not who ye really be".
Jesus Christ,
The Lord of Lords,
The King of the ages,
Of brass tongue sword.
Jesus as Hokhmah:
Son of Man,
Living spirit,
Paraclete of truth.
Give me your mercy;
My redeemer - redeem me,
For I am yours:
The one who has come forth.
You are my repose;
Give me the perfect thing that cannot be known.
You are my fullness;
Of abstract throne.
Give me your mercy;
My redeemer - redeem me,
For I am yours:
The one who has come forth.
Give me authority,
Give healing unto my body when needs be.
Redeem eternal light:
Unto those minds, now blind, grant your sight.
You are my mind;
bring me forth!
You are my treasure house;
Eternal Lord.
Give me your mercy;
My redeemer - redeem me,
For I am yours:
The one who has come forth.

Apocalypse of Adam

APOCALYPSE OF ADAM:
Narrator:
Here stands Adam,
Great Kabbalist 'adamah'.
First savage to ponder,
First to know, first to wonder.
Beside him stands his offspring:
Not he dead, not he condemned to wander.
Seth aside the first-made man,
Learning truth none may tear asunder.
Seth:
O', father, I beseech thee:
Tell me the wholeness of the glory;
The natures of the stars;
The mysteries of Kabbalah.
Adam:
O', son, so let it be known:
I, mankind, stand high alone,
And have to me my kingdom shown,
It reigns above the maker's throne -
But too it dwells beneath the stars,
That plot the map of Monad's heart.
This truth will be known deep within,
To those of aeon with no king.
Seth & Adam:
I call to the names of God:
Yod-He-Vau-He; Tzevaot;
El; Eloi; Elohim:
The Demiurge - Deluge it brings.
The thirteen kingdoms shall forget,
Their root in earth; it shall beget
The great destruction by the flame.
And only then you'll know the name.

NONE a opéré un virage dans Where Life Should Be et ça se confirme davantage dans Damp Chill of Life. Le temps des métaphores est révolu : l'humidité froide, c'est celle des larmes qui coulent sur le visage à cause de la dépression. Tout pleure dans cet album : les guitares typées DSBM grésillent, les solos ("The Damp Chill of Life", "It's Painless To Let Go") sont liquides et coulent, les voix prennent à la gorge ; même le piano, étranglé par les sanglots ("Cease"), est aphone. Insoutenable...

by Human Serpent/Isolert
supported by 26 fans who also own “Revelations of the Gnostic Christ”
The second (03:01) I heard that angry bellow gurgling upwards as from the depths of hell, conquering the composition, rising in intensity, and climaxing more than half a minute later (a geyser of blood spouting up from Tartaros, breaching subterranean roofs and spewing forth onto the face of the earth), I was engrossed hook, line and sinker. Drawn into the underworldly dark. Vocal performances like these never fail to conjure a grin on my face.
