Before speaking about Graal I must initially inform
you of my course of life.
| SOURCES OF MY
MORALS AND MY RELIGION
|
I
was born between three worlds, that of the black magic by my father, that of the
Catholic religion by my grandmother (and partly by my mother because it had
succeeded in preserving its faith in spite of the influence of my father), that
of the Forest and the sources.
My father was member of an offensive sect of paramedicals and mesmerists, their theories
generated criminal behaviors. It was cause of great sufferings for my mother and
me. Too much early I was a witness of grown-ups secrets and
my knowledge made me suffer. Very early I had to put to me in research
not to lose the reason. The question of the existence of a god, I was
posed it at five years, seeing children to gather around the sisters on
the square of the church, I asked for to my mother the permission of
join them. Thus I became catechumen. (Someone who receives a religious
education with a view to baptism.)
Beyond
catechism, the church of the village was for me a place of appeasing,
it attracted me like a magnet, between me and its stones was
established a dialog which led us to a reciprocal friendship. I had
just discovered the world of the spirits and the value of sacred. It
became my refuge as the forest which surrounded the ruins of the old
castle, as the source which ran in bottom of the village.
There are my
deep roots. In parallel my grandfather took me along in the true life,
I discovered by him the work and the pleasure of the fruits of work,
the beauty of the gardens and the orchards, the excellence of the vine
and the wine, the hunting and the fishing which appeared me at the same
time beautiful and cruel. My grandfather made me “a jovial fellow”. And
if he told me the fratricidal Great War, it was for better learning me
how to benefit the joys of a country in peace.
I was only at the beginning
of my research, they were long and dramatic, merry and tragic. I went from
traditional Catholicism to integrist Protestantism via Catholicism progressist
(and/or) charismatic. The best experiment during my adolescence was the three bicycles
camps in mountain in which I took part within the Eucharistic
Movement of the Young people, I was “young witness of Christ” and with
my brothers in the faith I lived unforgettable moments with them, the
Holy Spirit (the Indians would say “wakan tanka”) and Nature. We were
three friends according to the same way, then one of us (Jerome) was
tout for on the public highway by foreign missionaries, it involved us
with him in the cave of an evangelic Christian foyer, there I let
myself seduced by an hippie which had seen and profited from miracles
in India… Jerome committed suicide at 20 years old after having given
up any hope in the life. Me, I continued to seek the elements of truth
behind appearances, which led me to follow studies of theology. The
best doctrines seem to me to be the doctrines Lutheran, but the Church
Lutheran does not have attractions for me.
My wife was six years
patient then it died about it. Her disease was a hell for her as for me. It left
me with four children from 9 months old to 9 years. This trial of course had a strong
impact on my material and spiritual life. Whereas we were separated, it left me
a message the day of its death, a message without words, a spiritual message.
This message said to me that a big struggle was going to be engage and that it was
necessary that I prepare me.
Over the years I discovered
contradictions between the Bible and science and especially,
the most serious between some of these historical be-saying stories and the archaeological
discoveries in report. The history of Moses and Hebrew in the desert, the
conquest of Canaan, nothing of all that had been able to occur at the time
quoted, all is incredible, all is only blind article of faith. But me I am not
blind (on this side there at least), and my faith will be never blind - not that
I want all to see and touch as Saint Thomas - but in the sense that I may not
accept the historical lie whatever the history in question. Any historical event
must be revised until one knows scientifically what is veracious and what is
false. So are believers afraid of a revisionist (who is subjected
to the scientific framework), this is that the history in which they believe mask lies, if not of what would be afraid?
When the history of Joseph
Smith is known - the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement (Mormons) - one sees at which point credulity and blind faith are the
supports of the historical lie. And the consequences can be important : the state
of Utah is richest of the United States and it is a Mormon state with 90%. And
these to believe that their richness is a divine blessing whereas they
stole it to the Indians… (without comment.)
“2 Corinthians
3
3.1 Do we again start to recommend ourselves to us?
Or do we need, like some, of recommendations near you, or your
share?
3.2 It is you who are our letter, written in our
hearts, known and read of all the
men.
3.3 You are obviously a letter of Christ, written,
by our ministry, not with ink, but with the Spirit of the Living God, not on
stone tables, but on tables of flesh, the
hearts.
3.4 This insurance, we have it by Christ near God.
“
It is not a discovery, but rather a return to
the sources, the shamanic traditions were transmitted by oral way and those
which had tried out the way of the shaman in their whole being and by the
concrete experiment, of course at the moment of initiation, but also in the very
whole life. But there one does not stop with the human one, but one addresses
oneself to all the beings of Nature.
The writing acts like a reducer of the thought,
sometimes even it kills it. Nothing is worth the oral transmission, such as for
example that of the aboriginals of Australia, learning the geography from their
country by ritual songs.
The
shamanism is lived in communion with the animals, the plants, minerals, in
communion with the Sky and the Earth.
It is universal by its essence but regional by
its nature. Indeed he marries the characteristics of each area because each area
of the earth gives him a local color. It is integral part and parcel of the
identity of a tribe or of people but it is not him which gives him an
identity.
This way is thus higher than those proposed by
the great monotheistic religions which do not respect the cultural identities
and even less the personality of the individual. One of the rules which I
learned among evangelic Christians (who pass to have a spirit of fraternity) it
is the theory of the breaking, “ego” must be subjected to the will of God
(which often merges with that of the small local pope), the person has existence
only within the group and within the very narrow framework of the rules and
practices resulting from the interpretation of the Bible.
As for the love of god, if there exists, it is
far from being perfect,
the sun of
justice does not light the children of the moon.
To always think of them, as with all those which suffer from rare diseases which are everywhere.
While
waiting I summarize and who can better summarize my frame of mind than
Indochine :

About the great religions and small sects
outward journey HERE!
My course of life in is a “queste” of
Graal and it is far from being finished.
For the attempts at definition of Graal to see the article in
Wikipedia.
Graal
with the most general meaning is a sacred entity which one was
cannot reduce to an object, was-it the cup of Christ Passover, or even to a person,
Marie-madeleine. The concept is at the same time older and permetter me the
expression “more future”. Graal is related to the origins of life and it will be
participating of its future salvation. Without disavowing it I went beyond my
traditional Catholicism, and I request the faithful catholics not me to hold
rigor of it (as much the Protestants who were my brothers), but rather to try to
understand my spiritual course.
In fact, during my studies
and research in theology, it appeared to me that the “Revelations” of the great
religions (and with stronger reason of their derivative products), are a mixture
of truths and lies, of wisdom and madness, love and hatred… in other words that
if they have a divine origin, the men got busy to pollute them. Also I thus
endeavoured to further bring me closer to the sources in antiquity and
prehistory. My conclusion: the spirituality the more in phase with Nature is the
Shamanism. If someone people are not agreement with me I am at their disposal to
discuss of it.
The Cup that Christ
present at the time of the Holy Communion allows to drink her blood before it is
versed, he presents its sacrifice like timeless and universal, it is really
necessary to drink its blood to be saved (cf Jean chapter 6) and to eat its
flesh, which is really its flesh. (Sorry for the Protestants, but it is abusive
to see a symbol in the speech told by Jean because it is precisely the object
of the speech: to specify that it is a reality). Christ is of royal blood (son
of David) and it is “sovereign sacrificer according to the order of Melkisédek
(king of justice). But we point out that it is presented in the form of “a son
of man” first but son of God “born among several brothers”… Always it is that
this practice brings back to us to older anthropophagous rites: to eat the flesh
of the other was to adapt the powers of the other (force, knowledge, etc…). The
sacrifices of lambs were presented like a substitution to the human sacrifices
and there (with "God's Lamb") we have a voluntary human (divin) sacrifice which is a substitution for all
the sacrifices without to prevent them.
“The soul is in the blood”
tells us Lévitique (soul within the meaning of life) also the Cup does not
contain only blood but the heart of Christ but here one has more than the animal
life, the Cup at the time of the Holy Communion becomes an element of the
Kingdom of God, and there the bread and the wine spiritually become the blood
and the body of Christ (consbstance, do not lie to ourselves). There I am
very Lutheran. Maintaining when it is considered that the cup is a sacred
object endowed with powers, I say YES because the way of the shaman teach that
any thing is sacred and has a spirit.
“If it is true that women and men resulting from
various Nations of the Indians of America answer to the name of man-women doctors,
priests, healers, doctors, shamanes, all specialized in the field of sacred
- however it appears that one always recognized to each human being the access
to the spiritual field without the need of any intermediary to reach wisdom or
to request.
Much more, the presence of mind of Creation, an
indescribable and monumental force [p15] that the Iroquois ones called Orenda
and Lakota Wakan, is not only concentrated in sacred places, ritual sanctuaries
and objects which symbolize the Spirit. On the contrary, the “Great Mystery”
Ktsinwaskw of the Abenaki people is contained in all [them] things and is
announced all [them] things. According to the proper terms of Black Dash “any
place is the center of the world “. Any thing is sacred.”
“Wisdom of the Indians of America” page
14.
One should not lose sight of the fact that the
things indicated here are not those resulting from the industrial society but
from the Indian craft industry, therefore of natural things. Those which carry
in them the spirit of the craftsman who conceived
them.
This said, that does not prevent the
concentration of the mind of Creation's presence in people, sacred places or
objects !
