Use The Back Of Your Head, a Grail Wisdom Series Lesson.

If you are familiar with the Grail Wisdom series, you know that the numbers are generated from Gematria and the attributes are a part of the understanding we need to understand this lesson in successful living.  If not, the positions on the Tree of Life are confusing.  Review early lessons and the “Tree of Life Diagram Explained” to understand the layout better.  To make understanding this article easier, this lesson deals with the thinking mind.  Absorb the information taught as the wisdom preserved as the Grail.

"Back of the head" is the attribute of Qoth the Path between Netzach and Yesod and is numbered 100 for counting. Qoth is on the 29th Path with 906 and 186 as extended numbers for the purposes of Gematria, the system of coding and decoding information on the Tree of Life.

The esoteric clue is the sun. This would be the sun Card of the Major Arcane in Tarot, the flash cards used in the Middle ages. Qoth extends up from Malkuth to Netzach.  This path is necessary because of the Fall of Man, we suspect.  We wouldn’t need this attribute if we were still connected in Eden.  It does pay to be connected. As is, we have conscious minds wiped clean (perhaps, repeatedly) at birth.  Since reincarnation is a very real possibility, wiped clean is a very real fact, but the subconscious remembers in our immortal state. Some things do seem to be retained. Deja Vu happens a lot.

Malkuth, our actual world, the here and now, is numbered 10 and 100.  Added to Qoth is 110, "to Embrace,” “Kinsmen," "a Flag," "sign," "standard," "Father of Faith." Here in the conscious mind we decide what we care about: our families, our country, our faith.

Add 7 from Netzach to 100:"the Angel of Netzach of Briah." (There are an unlimited number of angels for every purpose under Heaven. They serve and adore.  They are often called, “Sons of God.”)  

"An egg,"is also 107. The Akashic Egg leads to a chronicle of our lives made from the decisions we make and the actions and thoughts of our existence. This is the book of the angels of poetic parlance. It is our suspicion that this is dimly remembered in our current life to give us penchants for certain periods of history or certain professions, a familiarity with one experience over others.  Our subconscious records those events by virtue of being connected with the Divine Mind as we learned in the lesson Tzaddi, the subconscious mind.  

Add all the influences in this position using the small numbers for 117: "Guide." We nominate this Guide since this is what is preserved out of the teachings revealed and preserved through the Cathars, a people who didn’t believe in a formal church such as Rome’s institution under Peter, the Bishop of Rome.  Much of this tradition taught in these very lessons was preserved in France and not in Rome; hence, the move by Rome to send thirty-thousand troops, and we use the term loosely, to eradicate the “heretics” in the Languadoc.  This last stand culminated in the siege at Mont Segur in 1244 with the death of all the Cathari who converted to Parfaits, assuring their deaths unde tthe law.  On March 15th, the remaining Cathars in the fort surrendered wholesale and were burnt alive in a wooden cage.
Such faith to choose death by fire instead of living under the rule of Rome! The Templars were supposed to help eradicate these people, the first Christians, by their own moniker, but the Templars recruited Cathars to be knights and tried to return lands to them that the authorities  seized.  In short, the Templars were sympathetic to the Cathar beliefs and way of life.  The Templars also knew things Rome wanted buried and so did the Cathars.

Hundreds of scriptures about Christ were penned in the first couple of centuries. It is no wonder that the Council of Nicea had such a hard time compiling what direction the New Testament would take.  It was not their fault really, because Emperor Constantine was urging them to make a lot of decisions to be codified and used in the churches of his empire. It still took forty-seven years to reach the final twenty-seven books chosen.
The Gnostic Gospels of Philip, Mary Magdalene, Thomas and Judas were  radical for the men of that time and didn’t make the edit. And we know the reader’s thinking about this departure from the main point: the History lessons are added here because we can.  Understanding is easier with more information.

Extended numbers reveal 496 + 906 = 1402: "Arik Anpin" or “the Long of Face,” a Title of Kether. The long face is a larger dynamic of Sephiroth combined. It is the sum of the Sephiroth. It shows that the entire world is connected and mutually dependent.  There is a short face of fewer Sephiroth and they elaborate on relationships within the Tree.  That is covered in the detailed correspondences which we cover in the individual paths. They all work together regardless.  What a surprise!

Netzach’s mystic number of 148 plus that of Qoth, 906, is 1054 with nothing jumping out at us.  Divide by 9, completion and Yesod which is Foundation and get 117, the Guide mentioned already. Your conscious mind is supposed to take in knowledge and guide our actions and decisions. Added, 148 + 906 + 496 = 1550. Divide by 117 to get 13 in whole numbers, "The Pillar Mercy." We have learned that this is the right side fo the Tree of Life and is composed of the Sephiroth of Wisdom. Mercy and Victory. The Paths of Nature and Strength connect them.

Divide 1550 by 620 of Kether’s extended number: 2.5 or just 2 in whole numbers, "Duality," which makes all the Universe possible. Move the decimal and divide 1550 to get the product of 62, "To Commit," "Healing" and "the sons."  The sons of Deity and healing seems natural enough.  As children of the Most Holy Ancient One, humans need to heal bodies and minds and solve problems to better our existence.  Notice it didn't say to do it for money or political gain, but to commit healing for whose who need it.

Divide by 906, the mystic number of Qoth, to get 1.7 or 17 if we move the decimal which produces the correspondence “Good.”  We get the message. Our consciousness, if educated, leads to Kether, Good and the Pillar of Mercy through the Guide given to us by the pleasure of Deity.   This is our purpose in living, leading to Unity, or “Salvation” in a familiar term.

Some more information about education: Aleph gives us information about atomic numbers, air and lots of subjects to study in our lifetime.  All the letters have an area of expertise to investigate. Keep learning for a lifetime.  The more we know the better able we are to succeed in Life and apprehending the Kingdom of God. Couple this with the Lesson Lamed, taking action to create our lives deliberately to not be a burden to society, and we are indeed likened to magicians as seen in the Magus card.  We can achieve great things for Victory in Life for ourselves and the Victory of Deity over negative forces.  The Good side needs all the help it can get because there is a battle of Good against Evil or poor choices.   Again, Decide whom you serve.  You have free will, but it is wasted if you decide on self-indulgence and greed over what is wholesome, green and Unified with Deity.  (Your author finds it agreeable that even the Tree of Life uses “Green” to name a concept for eco-friendly behaviors.)

Decide  what you want the Earth to be, your life to be, the fate of your immortal existence to be. You have the Life Guide given above from Above through generations of thinking people.  These Wise Ones agree that these guides are inspired by observation, reason and the influence of Deity to use for your best interest.  To help your endeavors and given for your use is Tau, the Earth, and the last Path on the Tree.  
May wisdom be your, Dear Seeker.
