WHAT PIERS ANTHONY SAYS ABOUT SACRED ROTA



“I read Waking God II The Sacred Rota, by Brian L Doe and Philip F Harris. This is a sequel to Waking God, published in 2006, or really a continuation of a three part story. It is a science fantasy theological thriller, odd as that combination may seem to be. The final battle is developing, and while they do argue theology, there are also people getting killed wholesale as the several themes slowly integrate. I am agnostic, with no belief in the supernatural, but as before, I found portions of the discussion more interesting than the action. Here's when Lucifer harangues an Archangel: “You create demons and false hopes of redemption. You build them mighty temples and give with one hand and slaughter with the other. You have kept them separate and ignorant and give just enough to raise empty hopes. You destroy their prophets and burn their seers. If they question, you put them to the rack and crush all semblance of free thought. You give them a doctrine of poverty and offer riches in your fantasy heaven. Kill in the name of god and your treasure shall be immeasurable. You divide them and thus conquer them, and tell them they have no responsibility but to be good sheep and to follow your demented dictates.” This strikes me as an apt description of global religion. I was intrigued by the Tarot discussion, because I did some research there, thirty years ago, when writing Tarot and devising my own 100 card Animation Tarot deck, because the established decks are clearly incomplete. I conjecture that one author in this collaboration knows how to write, and the other knows his occult lore, because they clearly have done their Tarot homework. So this is a novel worth reading, but it will help to have an open mind. I fault it for developing serious characters who may then be thrown away, or suddenly having new significant characters for whom there was no prior reference. (But it turned out I had forgotten that one of those was in the prior novel. That will be clarified in the published edition of this one.) So I think it needs better overall organization, but there is nevertheless much here that you probably won't find in the tacitly expurgated traditional press.” (June 2008)

SACRED ROTA TO BE RELEASED 2/27


WAKING GOD BOOK II: THE SACRED ROTA opens doors that many would prefer stay closed. Continuing with the fast paced action of Book I, humanity is beset with growing problems reminiscent of the ancient Biblical plagues. The battle between the Archangel Michael and Mantrella (a.k.a. Lucifer) intensifies as conception of the Old Testament’s Adam becomes a certainty. The rise to power of the UN’s David Dajjal, a puppet of Michael’s, sets the stage for world domination by the Bilderberg Group. New information is revealed about the Tarot Code, the blueprint for man’s future spiritual and physical evolution, and the role of the church’s Sacred Rota in the epic conspiracy to keep humanity in ignorance and ancient institutions in power. Will the hidden god seed in our DNA be activated with Adam’s birth or will secret powers maintain their domination of our destiny?

NOSTRADAMUS AND THE TAROT CODE


Nostradamus & The Tarot Code
By Philip F. Harris

I hope to shed some light on the current popular interpretations of the symbols presented on the History Channel television documentary "Lost Book of Nostradamus" as sadly lacking in efficacy. In doing so, the current buzz around this book will have done Nostradamus and humanity a great disservice. It is important to keep in mind that current interpretations are geared to a comparison of the text to Christian ideology, myths, and scriptures. Most of the analysis is focused upon comparing Nostradamus, prophecies of the Bible, and to a larger extent, revelations in the Bible. These efforts appear self-serving and self-fulfilling.

Nostradamus was a mystic with ties to several secret societies, most notably the Rose Cross. In this context, new levels of observation come to light when viewing the images contained in the text. As a matter of fact, if one examines The Secret Symbols of the Rosicrucians, it will be clear that there is more than meets the eye with respect to the intent and meaning of the Nostradamus prophecies. Many interpretations today of Tarot symbols make it clear that their understanding is not at the esoteric levels.

In my co-authored novel "Waking God," the concept of a Tarot Code was introduced. The book is a mystical treatise in the guise of a spiritual thriller, and states that the Tarot has its roots in imagery that preceded the Assyrian Empire and has been carried forth into the modern era. These symbols provide a pictorial history of human evolution as well as clues or prophecies regarding our future. These symbols are found in almost every civilization, and yet are understood by only a few.
The symbols of Nostradamus transcend those images often touted by biblical scholars as messages of doom and world's end; however, the only real accurate statement with these interpretations is that the prophecies give clues as to the Apocalypse. But even here, it is important to remember that the term "apocalypse" does not mean the end of the world. The word means "revelation, to uncover, knowledge revealed" and not Armageddon or the destruction of the physical world. The term apocalypse has been hijacked by religious dogma to frighten unsuspecting followers into believing that all prophecies that deal with the word apocalypse support their notion that one day, deity will destroy its creation and only the faithful will survive. The "apocalypse" of Nostradamus deals with the "end of lies," not the "end of times."

It should be understood that the true and inner meaning behind the words of Nostradamus concerns humanity's spiritual awakening. The prophecies are a light post aimed at leading humanity into a new era of spirituality that is devoid of dogma and founded upon the notion of personal spiritual enlightenment. The symbols of Nostradamus and the Tarot are not about an anti-Christ. Throughout religious history biblical texts, taken out of context, have been used to justify all manner of crime and injustice. The prophecies of Nostradamus are another voice crying out in the wilderness of human history urging us to change our ways and enter a period of great enlightenment. It is incumbent upon modern interpreters of these messages not to fall into the age-old religious trap of using these words of wisdom to frighten humanity into a set of self-fulfilling prophecies.

One thing must be clear from the outset. Nostradamus is not a purveyor of doom and gloom. He does not predict the end of the world, nor does he foretell of the "second coming" of anyone. Regardless of the words, he does not believe in an anti-Christ. Nostradamus does not tell "all" in the quatrains, rather he reveals his mysteries in his symbols.

The quatrains are like the parables that are understood by the few. They are inner truths reserved for the initiates. While many quibble over the meaning of the words, they fail to see the heart that lies beneath. The Universe speaks in images and symbols, and Nostradamus was a tool of the Universe. He was an initiate of the highest order and it is to his symbols one must turn to grasp the rudiments of the words. They go hand in hand. They are the duality that shapes these symbols and became what are commonly called the Tarot. That Nostradamus used that symbology is indisputable. His real story is in the picture and not the text.
To begin to understand the inner message of Nostradamus, all religious connotations must be cast aside. Do not think of the images of the Pope as necessarily being the literal Pope. Do not see the serpent as evil, see it as wisdom. Contrary to very popular belief and error, the burning tower does not represent the end of the world. The tower is man's dogma undergoing purification of the spiritual fire. Even Jesus said he came to "baptize by fire." I doubt he meant he wanted to burn everyone in the flames of Inquisition.
What is Nostradamus telling us? He speaks to our current time in history. He tells us that the world is in chaos. Our leaders are ineffectual, religion has lost its purpose, and that a great transformation is nearing. He indicates that the transformation is not the result of a mythical "second coming" but rather, must stem from the higher thoughts of man, a man that reconnects mentally with the center of All That Is in order to break our cycle of destruction and ignorance. The time is getting close. And as the Hopi have said, "it is we who we have been waiting for."

DUALITY, ILLUSION, KNOWLEDGE



Explore these concepts in WAKING GOD-YOU MIGHT JUST BE GLAD THAT YOU DID!

“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”

—Revelation 22:16

Lucifer \‘lü-sĕ-fĕr\ noun [Middle English, the morning star, a fallen rebel archangel, from Latin, the morning star, from lucifer light-bearing, from luc-, lux light + -fer –ferous….]




“And if you look within yourself, Andrew, you will come to see that what I say is real. The Lords were given the opportunity to partake of free will, which is inherent in all created things, since it is the nature of the creator. Some saw no need for free will and chose to simply be of service to the Lord God. They would not cross the Veil, for they feared the idea of feeling separated from the Source of their creator.”
“And this is the Veil?” Andrew questioned, raising his arms to all that surrounded them in the den.
“Not exactly. The Veil is that space between reality and actuality, your world and ours. Even though the Lords knew that the feeling of separation was illusory, they simply could not break conscious contact with the Light. Remember, the manifestation of the physical requires duality—positive and negative. However, the negative has no actuality. In effect, the negative does not really exist as anything more than a concept. If there is only light, it is impossible to know that light exists unless the idea of no light, or darkness, is introduced. But darkness is a non-thing and has no real existence.”
“There can be no concept of good unless you introduce the notion of something less than good,” Andrew said. “Hot means nothing without cold, up without down, right without left. There could not be a chair unless there was no chair.”
“Perfect,” Mantrella commended, proud of his new student, “but there is no such thing as no chair,” he clarified. “You cannot possess such a thought. The physical is made manifest, or is defined by, what it is not—its opposite. Since the opposite is something that is not, its existence is an illusion; it has reality, but not actuality. In the so-called spiritual realm, all things potentially exist and can only be made manifest when a place opens within which a single potential—a thing—can be made to appear. Consequently, man had two options: remain as potential, a seed; or partake of life and flower to achieve a level of godhood, based upon the experience of the manifest world.
“When Adam was formed, the angels—the Lords—bowed to the perfection of his potential. I did not. I will only bow when the potential is made manifest. There was no fall, no sin, and no banishment. When presented with the choice, Adam—humanity—chose the Tree of Knowledge. Man chose to undertake the journey into the physical world, to cross the Veil and to enter an evolutionary path that began in a state of forgetfulness. The Prodigal embarked upon his path of wisdom, and the rest stayed home, fearful of such a journey. Man was to experience separation, isolation, individuality, the positive and the negative. Adam went to sleep and to this day has still not awakened. I placed the seed of knowledge into the Vessel, Eve, and she told Adam to open his eyes, and she gave him Knowledge. Man would go where gods could not, and where the angels dared not.”

GOD'S BOOK: EXCERPTS FROM WAKING GOD


To Andrew, all religions were but a history of God and contrary to their own beliefs. Institutions of faith were required to change since God’s story changed, even though God was considered both immutable and ever-changing. However, the conservative nature of the world’s churches refused to bend. Religion, Andrew offered, was like a chapter in a history book that simply resisted and did not want to become the next chapter, because it felt that if it became “history,” then it would no longer exist. He went on to argue that “human genes show us that history is still alive and makes up a part of what mankind is today and what it will be tomorrow.” In other words, a book with missing pages just didn’t work. The existence of previously “read” pages was integral to the story, and its continued existence was essential to humanity’s complete understanding—and God’s understanding—of the whole story, the whole Self.
The clergy, and those tied to churchianity, didn’t like the notion that they represented only a small and incomplete page in God’s Great Book. They found themselves instead caught in a master paradox: they existed in the present, and yet claimed to know Truth. To know Truth, however, one must have read the entire book. To have read the entire book, one must have been outside of time in order to have escaped the “now.” Since the known world had “apparent” limits, Andrew insisted that it would seem impossible to read a “limitless” book while being manifest; therefore, religion was but a few pages in a four-billion-and-counting-page volume...

“I know the idea of thinking during the summer is heresy, but you may be required to write about this topic for your first term project next fall.”
Moans and groans welcomed the idea of next fall’s projects for aspiring theology graduate students, though there existed a silent understanding among them all that Dr. Andrew was the professor to study under if any desired to be considered freethinkers in the academic theological world.
“Every major point in history can be traced back to a precipitating event,” he began. “This event is the immediate cause, but it is also itself an effect. Let’s consider some examples. The American Revolution: the precipitating event was the ‘shot heard ‘round the world.’ World War I: the assassination of Ferdinand. World War II: Hitler invades Poland. Civil Rights: Martin Luther King is killed.” He paused for a moment, then added, “Christianity: the Crucifixion.
“These events are obviously not the underlying cause of great historical moments, but rather are the final straw, if you will—that which precipitates the next great event. Consider the American Revolution again. One can make a long list of causes, or reasons as to why there was revolution—the tax issue, no representation, unfair commerce laws, indifference on the part of the King, et cetera. All of these causes built a pressure in the colonies. That pressure was released when the first shot was fired in Lexington. Likewise, pressure built around Martin Luther King; pressure built in Germany, in Iraq, in czarist Russia. Finally, in each case, an event occurred—a precipitating event—that allowed the pressure to be released. Such events are frequently attributed to one person—the assassin for example—or to a small group of people. Those who blew up the World Trade Center, for instance. In other words, millions of people may well be affected by the event, but they do not participate in the event itself.
“Wondering what this has to do with theology?”
