The Law of Light

The Secret Teachings of Jesus

I reviewed Lars Muhl's extraordinary book The O Manuscript in the last issue and met him in Montsegur in October, where he gave me this more recent book, an earlier signed version of which I had found in the hotel where he normally stays. The book explains the wisdom of Jesus, or Yeshua, as expressed in Aramaic and derived from other lesser-known gospels. Lars sees Jesus emerging from the Essene background of initiates and highlights the importance of his close relationship with Mary Magdalene. He explains that the culmination of this in the Bible is the ceremony of anointing where the masculine and feminine together as wisdom and love. Yeshua's Aramaic message is one of intimacy, freedom, selfless awareness, unconditional love, compassion and forgiveness, being present in and dedicated to everything we engage in. To this end he quotes a number of powerful prayers of invocation as a means of more genuinely living the message and integrating the various aspects of one's being into isogyny. The quality of one's thoughts and feelings is critical as they contain creative power in interacting with the principles of attraction and repulsion. This profound and wise book opens up an esoteric path of integration and transformation.
