Meshna - Oral Law

Last night I saw many people in groups talking in the distance and I just listened and watched as I was coming out of lucid dreaming. Then I heard the word 'Meshna" and it seems that this word in Hebrew means 'oral law'.

So what does Oral Law really mean?

It usually means that which is passed down orally and not from a book.

This law can be received directly from God and his legions of light in my experience. It can also be passed from teacher to student. For instance in Reiki we have an oral tradition that is passed down from Reiki Master to student. It is the teaching of the 'Dharma', the truth of the principles of the methodology being used. The word dharma is the teaching of the law and some translate this as the teaching of the Buddha. Most people are aware that Buddha taught people "To be a light unto themselves". However, many people are not aware of how to become a light unto themselves. So they look to teachers, Rabbi's, and other spiritual leaders to lead them to the light of truth.

There have been many great spiritual teachers down the ages. However, humanity as suffered from not being shown the way to seek within to find the law of their own being.

So we can conclude from this that there is four different types of law. One that is found written in books, one that is passed on by teachers, one that is found within and one that is given by God in the here and now. It then comes back to define exactly what oral law are we talking about because 'oral' means spoken not reading books.

After doing a search of the bible there is no mention of the word oral in the English translation. Prophet Jeremiah said that the law of the LORD had been changed by the scribes.

" 'How can you say, "We are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely? Jeremiah 8:8

"This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time," declares the LORD. "I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people." Jeremiah 31:33

The laws of the cosmos are part of our being but one can only connect with it when one is coming from a heart of conscience and integrity. Those that do not live in integrity and the purest of hearts do not wish to hear the right way.

Some people say that sometimes they feel like they have two angels on their shoulders. One that leads them astray and one that leads them to goodness. After a lot of examination with these people it is clear that both angels are a part them; one leading to righteousness and another part of them that wishes to lead them away from being the best that they can be. Or one can view it as an angel and its shadow that some call the shadow self.

Many years ago we shared with people that it is the human self and will that is competing with the soul and divine will. This is otherwise known at the struggle with God and the Hindu Gita is the most influential text on this struggle. Once people have completely surrendered to the soul and its purification there is no more struggle with the self.



The more that people heal the self the more they find out what their divine purpose is. The soul is the lamp that lights the way when the soul is purified and the dross is removed so that the lamp of the body can burn brightly. Jesus said in the scriptures that there is a light in the centre of man and if he does not shine then there is darkness. This is certainly true and the eyes are the window of the soul and one can tell a great deal from the eyes of a person.

Let us return to the law and its oral nature. There are natural laws that are part of the being, we are naturally preservers of God's creation when we live in our hearts. Many like to take the branch that is broken from the tree and throw it on the fire and cook the meat. It is mighty indeed when a person realises that the wood can be made into charcoal and can be used for many things and it is the same with the cosmos. Creation evolves and evolution creates; it is unnatural for humanity not to grow and develop, moving from one state of being to another. Growth and change is as natural as the seasons of nature. However, is it appropriate for humanity to wear clothes that are 3,500 years old? Is it appropriate to live by laws that were falsified by the scribes?

Jesus said 'I tell you truly, the Book of Nature is a HOLY SCROLL, and if you would have the Sons of Men save themselves and find everlasting life, teach them how once again to read from the living pages of the Earthly Mother. For in everything that is life is the law written. It is written in the grass, in the trees, in the rivers, in the mountains, birds of the sky and fishes of the sea; and most of all in the Son of Man. Only when he returns to the bosom of the Earthly Mother will he find everlasting life and the Stream of Life which leads to his Heavenly Father; only thus may the dark vision of the future not come to pass". The Essene Gospel of Peace, Book 4, Teachings of the Elect.

Completion of truth does exist when you find it within yourself.
