Tablet Twelve
SECTION IV
The promise
of spiritual blessing also was given to
Ishmael
Akashic Records:
<1>Any action or event which occurs in the
universe creates a record of that event in the
Universal Mind
as the Akashic
Records. These
Akashic Records
are the truest source of the realities behind this universe and
whatever had happened from the beginning of creation until now is
kept there. <2>Once in awhile, according to the need or Plan
of God for the human, some
truth of these records is sent to humanity by His Messengers, either
to bring a new teaching or higher understanding to man, or to
correct previous records.
<3>That is why it does not matter to
God if humans change
the Scriptures or if some of the Scriptures become lost. The truth will
be revealed to a zealous individual who seeks it, and eventually to all
of humanity, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" (Matthew 7:7).
Readings:
<4>The revelation of the events from these
Akashic Records
to humanity is known as
Readings. For example, there was an American Prophet (or
Sleeping Prophet as he is known) by the name of
Edgar Cayce. He would lie down on the couch, go into a state of
trance (or sleep), and answer many questions, diagnose diseases, or
give remedies correctly. These answers to the questions are known as
"the readings" of
Edgar Cayce, which were revealed from the
Akashic Records (the universal knowledge, or
Universal Mind,
or universal memory).
Koran means "readings"
<5>Prophet
Muhammad also was commanded in a sleep or trance by an
Angel of
God
(Gabriel)
to "read." He did not know how to read so he answered, "I cannot
read." The voice again said, "Read!" He repeated, "I cannot
read." For the third time the voice demanded, "Read!" He
then asked, "What can I read?" <6>So the revelations from these
Akashic Records started to be revealed to him. In fact he never
read anything but the voice of
Gabriel revealed
it to him from these records.
<7>That is why the
Moslems call their book
"The Koran," which means
"The Readings." It is no accident that the answers from Prophet
Cayce in sleep, and the revelations to
Prophet Muhammad
in a trance both are called "readings." This again has been done to
make man believe and have faith in these revelations.
<8>Therefore, the
Koran has been
revealed from the
Akashic Records. In Surah Ornaments of Gold (Az-Zukhruf
)
verse 4, these records are called "The Eternal Tablet." Also in the
Koran it is revealed, "The records of the transgressor are
kept in
Sijjin" (bad records)
and "The records for the righteous are kept in Iliyin
"
(good deeds) in Surah Defrauding (At-Tafif) verses 7-9 and 18-20.
In
the Bible, these records are called "the
book of
remembrance:"
Then they that feared the Lord spake often
one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a
book
of remembrance was written before him for them that
feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.
(Malachi 3:16)
<9>The
Koran
was sent to correct previous stories which had been given by
God, and also to bring new
laws after the lawgiving was taken from Judah, "...nor a lawgiver
from between his feet, until
Shiloh come;" (Gen.
49:10).
<10>Furthermore, we know the Old Testament had been
lost, many other teachings had influenced it, and some parts had
been omitted or added. Therefore, for understanding the truth, we
should trust the new revelations which were sent by
God to humanity. But not blindly -- we should see if they have
been fulfilled or not.
What the
Koran says about
the
future of
Abram's seed, Ishmael
...and of our offspring a nation submissive
unto thee [ God]...
...and from them raise a messenger for their
guidance...
(Surah The Cow, 128-129)
<11>So there was to be a nation (birthright)
and among them a Messenger
(scepter)
would arise. These both were fulfilled. Arabs are a nation and
Prophet Muhammad
is that Messenger. These prophecies (or promises) were given to
Abram
thousands of years ago.
<12>This truth (promise of spiritual blessing
for Ishmael) either had been lost from the Bible through the
turbulent history of the Hebrews, or the book was changed, and that
part which told of a Prophet also coming from the seed of Ishmael
was taken out of the Old Testament. Both of these explanations are
possible because we know that the Old Testament was written
around 500 B.C., and the book was completely lost after the
captivity of the
Jews.
<13>It was revealed again in the
Koran, "They say it
is from Allah what they
have written by their own hands. Woe be unto them!" (Surah The Cow,
79). <14>The blessing of
God is the same as the promise of
the scepter (Gen.
17:20).
<15>The point is that the promise of material
possession (the birthright) and spiritual blessing
(the scepter) were both also given to Ishmael.
Not accepting this
is to miss a great part of The Plan of the Lord.
It is also revealed
in The Revelation
<16>In The Revelation, the last book
of the
Bible, it was predicted that seven truths would be revealed
to humanity. The first truth is the teachings of the Far East --
Mystical Paths ( ),
which helped many Great
Souls become prepared to
be chosen as Elected
Ones
(Hebrews). This is symbolized by the
white
horse and its rider (Rev. 6:1-2). The second truth is the history
and purpose of the Hebrews from the time of
Abraham to the
New Testament ( )
and is symbolized by the red horse. The third truth is the black
horse which is Christianity,
the symbol of overcoming the
lower nature of man
(black horse) and bringing equality (the balance). The fourth truth
or the end of the riders of the horses is the pale horse or
Islam
(for a deeper study, read
Revelation of The Revelation).
<17>Islam
is one of the accepted world religions, and a great part of humanity
has been blessed through it. So denying its validity and that it has
been the work of
God for fulfilling the
promises given to
Abram for his seed
Ishmael is just like denying the sun on a sunny day.
<18>Therefore, both the
promises of
the scepter
(spiritual blessing) and birthright (the material possession) given
to
Abram
and Abraham for his
seed Ishmael and Isaac have been fulfilled.
