Speaking of signs,...
I just have to reply to myself having just seen the number of my total posts on my last post.
I have done some research on this number 666 and found some very interesting things. In "The Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ" more commonly
called "Revelations" it says to "..calculate the number of the beast for it is the number of a man and the number is six hundred, threescore and
six."
In the Qabala the way you calculate is to add up the letters. Very simple because in Hebrew the same characters are used for letters and numbers.
The only name in the first five books of the Old Testament (Pentatuch), which is purportedly written by Moses and called The Law, which adds up to 666 is
Sethur. He is a captain in the Hebrew army and not much is said about him.
But, the name means "Hidden."
I will not go into details right now, but my conclusion is that this is relating to the principle of the "World of Illusion" being revealed to us.
"Revelation" would be one word for it, and "Seeing" would be another.
This number is very scary to most people because of the Beast. But, as a friend of mine once said to me, "If you can't recognise Christ, how would you
recognise Anti-Christ?
But all religious implications aside, what I believe the revealing of the Beast 666 is is opening of our eye/eyes to what is really going on around us. Both
good and bad. These are Principles, not people and the Revelation of this mystery is a lot bigger than some Hollywood writers ideas on the subject. And a lot
more frightening, actually.
But we have opted for a lot more frightening path than most, haven't we?
