The 613 Mizvot of the Torah and the Metatronic Overself

There are 613 Mitzvot in the Torah, divided into 248 obligations and 365 prohibitions. We often hear about the importance of doing Mitzvot, and some even say that the coming of the Messiah is directly related to performance of the Mitzvot. But that is just the surface-level view (p'shat). But what is the secret (sod) of the Mitzvot?

From a higher perspective, the Torah is the collective dreambook of all Metatronic Overself programs of Adamic evolution. At this level, we see that the Overself is constructed out of the all the Mitzvot - it is always doing all 248 obligations and never does any of the 365 prohibitions. Esoterically, this is the Gan Eden - the state of being in which the performance of all 613 Mitzvot is a simultaneous reality. But does this mean that we should not practice Torah and perform Mitzvot daily?

When the Overself emanates an individual spirit, it must enter the dimension of time. This means that the state of resonance with the Mitzvot is variable and can change dynamically. Therefore, actual physical performance is needed to achieve vibrational resonance with the Mitzvot. This opens up Overself functionality to the individual spirit.

The study of the laws of the Mitzvot and the sections of the Torah in which the Mitzvot are defined is a major educational imperative in Talmud Torah. Understanding the principles and goals of Mitzvot observance are a key to unlocking the mysteries of our Overself.

What is in Your Heart is What You Will Find in God

So, you want to find God? Which God do you seek? The God beyond time and space, or the God that is everywhere and in all things? The God of judgment and punishment, or the God of love and mercy? Do you seek many Gods or just one God? The God who sets the universe in motion and then takes a lunch break, or the God who pulls the strings behind historical events? The God of art and beauty or the God of intellect and intelligence? The God of law and order or the God of goodness and oneness? The God who listens to prayer or the God who doesn't give a shit about you? Or the God who is dead and the God who never existed? Which do you seek? 

You can find all of these Gods and more - they can all be found, even the God who doesn't exist can be found. You set out on your journey from where you begin right now. What you find in the end only takes you back to the beginning, the place where you started. What do you find in your heart? Only what is there right now. Change what is in your heart, and you will find a different God.

The Zohar and the 32 Paths of Wisdom

Everything written in the Zohar is inspired by the mystical experience of the author into one of the 32 Mystical Paths of Wisdom. Any idea contained in the Zohar can be spectrally analyzed by its influence from one of the 32 Mystical Paths of Wisdom.

If you want to really understand a statement in the Zohar, you can find out which of the Paths are illuminating the thoughts of the Companions, ascend to these Paths through theurgic methods, gaze upon the concealed light of emanation, and, once you have arrived at this level, bask in the radiance of divine illumination, holding on not to what is your own but open to be filled with mystical insight, becoming energized thereby, and once this intellectual sanctification has been had, ascending yet higher to become unified and united with that spark of truth which has been kindled by those who shared in this unity before, and upon coming to this inscrutable height, comprehending the fathomless depth of insight revealed by the Companions in their discussions and conversations.

The following chart can be used to open up the Paths as a preparatory exercise before Zohar study.

Expression of Soul Vibration and Generating Resonance with Our Home Star

Each soul has a 'home' star, which is where they come from before coming to earth, and where they return in the period between earth lives. The home star is usually also the person's soul root, or the power that creates their soul. The vibration of their home star will be present to a greater or lesser degree in the person's energy field, depending on the type of resonance choices they make.

When a person expresses the inner content of their soul through creative writing, song, poetry, dance, art, speech, philosophy, etc. then their soul's creations will be in resonance with their home star. Thus, the vibration of a person's home star is not only detectable in their energy field, but also in their creative work. The idea of 'teshuvah' or returning, could now be interpreted to mean that we actively strive to generate vibrational resonance with our home star / soul root in all our actions.

What is METATRON?

The name given to represent the collective totality architecture of the structures of emanation is METATRON. It is the complete meta-topological space of parallel reality dynamics that unifies all overself programs within creation. It is the living meta-system that contains all sub-systems of linguistically coordinated vibrational patterns. Our current assignment is to learn how to adhere to the mathematical laws of meta-mind functions, so that our mind coheres to the meta-brain software that has been prepared for us at the beginning of our time-within-time.

The Fractality of Torah Literature

All Torah literature is inherently interconnected with itself. This is mathematically modeled by fractal geometry.  Mathematically, a fractal is a self-similar geometric object that reiterates the global structure at every localized scaling perspective.

A Julia set fractal - a vision of Torah literature
 
Reading any of the teachings of the sages is like reading them all. Understanding any little bits of Torah wisdom is like understanding them all. But you can't fully appreciate the ramifications of each little bit of Torah wisdom unless you have first become familiar with the full spectrum of Torah literature.

The Torah, TaNaK, Mishnah, Talmud, Midrash, Zohar, etc... are all interconnected in this way.  Fractal geometry is the easiest way to understand how to read and study Torah literature.

Tikkunei haZohar

Tikkunei haZohar - will anyone be translating it soon?  I pray that this will be done with as much loving grace as professor Matt's translation.  Perhaps professor Matt will have enough wind in his sails to translate the Tikkunim some day.

There are two Zohars: Zohar haQadosh (The Holy Zohar), focusing on the Parashiot sections of the Torah; and the Tikkunei haZohar (Rectifications of the Zohar), focusing on the esoteric interpretations of the 1st verse of Genesis, Beresheet. 

Why are there two Zohars?  Well, why are there two Talmuds?  Talmud Bavli and Talmud Yerushalmi.  This has to do with polarity principles, laws of the dynamics of spiritual energy, around which our physical reality is structured.

The secret of the two Zohars relates to the two spellings of the name Metatron.  Most are familiar with the 6-letter spelling - MTTRON.  But there is also a 7-letter spelling MYTTRON.  This is found in Hekhalot literature, but the significance of the two spellings was first revealed by Rabbi Moshe Cordovero in Pardes Rimonim, Gate 14 on the Four Worlds.  MTTRON is in Malkut, while MYTTRON is in Keter.

This is why there are two Zohars and two Talmuds.  MTTRON is the intelligence which creates the code structure of Zohar haQadosh and Talmud Bavli, while MYTTRON is the intelligence which creates the code structure of Tikkunei haZohar and Talmud Yerushalmi. 

This understanding reveals the secrets of many other pairs in Torah tradition: two Keruvim over the Ark, two tefillin boxes, two tablets of the law,  written & orah Torah, positive & negative commandments, this world & the world to come, Moses & Aaron, 1st & 2nd temples, Tree of Life & Tree of Knowledge, and perhaps most importantly for this discussion of the Zohar: the Shekhinah (Divine Presence) & haQadosh Baruch Hu (The Blessed Holy One) - the masculine & feminine personifications of divine energy - the Zohar aims to not only tell their romance story, but activate the energy of their romantic coupling in the mind of its readers.

The question is: if Zohar haQadosh is Shekhinah, and Tikkunei haZohar is haQadosh Baruch Hu, will the two Zohars be brought together in holy union, thereby completing the English translation of their love story?  Or will Shekhinah be waiting with no one to satisfy her longing?

"I arose to open for my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, and my fingers with flowing myrrh, upon the handles of the lock. I opened for my beloved, but my beloved had hidden and was gone; my soul went out when he spoke; I sought him, but found him not; I called him, but he did not answer me." -- Song of Songs 5:5-6
