I would like to read any stories you think might go with this thread.
According to the rabbis there was first the Torah before the creation of the World -the Torah of the Void, the Invisible Torah. It was not a written book but the Living Spirit (and methinks Christianity used this idea and called it Logos). In the Torah is included all that could be, would be, will be and was, and all these things are mind-only. Some said that the Torah of the Void is the primordial pattern/ the content of the mind (the dreams!) of the Creator -so Plato was talking about archetypes/ ideas and the Eastern theists about “divine dreaming”.
Actually the Torah of the Void is not a book, it was called “book” because it contained Knowledge -and the most pieces of information regarding this Knowledge you could get the most power you would achieve. So the rabbis knew that Knowledge is Power -Knowledge, not mambo-jumbo.
Today we understand Knowledge solely as a product of science, of philosophy and of the evaluation of the mind -everything else is a delusion. These three tools remain the agent that helps us to recover the language of the Torah of the Void; the language in which the Torah of the Void is written is mind-only, and one acquires facility in this language by means of her/ his pure conceptual and non conceptual awareness
