On the Forbidden Letters - by Ingo Berg
'I'm presently "translating" the Letters sent by the Paris 4 for further
analysis - in this I mean I am copying it all out properly minus the spelling
mistakes and bad grammar. These errors are perfectly understandable with the
Paris 4 being French. (...) I would just like some clarity, perhaps for further
publication. (...) I really haven't made up my mind on where this is taking me
as yet, but I'm working on something.' [Gary Osborn on March 4 2010]
'I've heard that Gardiner is working on a book on the Forbidden Letters.'
[Forum-post on the Forbidden Letters]
'But now to the mentioned book. It will be published during 'gloria olivae.'
There are two authors.The title is ‘the Serpent Grail.' These two authors
will write the last book on our stone.' [Thomas Mann in a
1949-letter on Philip Gardiner, Gary Osborn, their 2005-book 'The Serpent Grail'
and its follow-up (which would deal with the Forbidden Letters)]
[ Siegfried killing the Dragon - note that he is in the
earth! *) ]
*) Golan suggests that the Phoenix indeed belonged
to the underworld, because
it's name 'seems to come from the name of the underworld god f.n
(...).'[1991:144]

'In his last moments, Fafner learns Siegfried's name, and tells him to beware
of treachery. When Siegfried draws his sword from the corpse, his hands are
burned by the dragon's blood.'[Wikipedia on Wagner's opera Siegfried/my

'b) The stone is produced about where the liver is. The stone ignites the
Kundalini fire (the fire can actually be heard) and starts to move about,
increasingly violently. Fire getting stronger. Arms and legs break into pieces.
c) The snake is driven out. Our friend doesn't know where it went. Up the
spine, but after that: no clue. (Into the earth?)'[The Paris 4/verbatim/my
emphasis]
3.
'You know that there is a beast inside all of us. That beast has to be let
out in a certain crisis in alchemy. It is raw psychic energy (libido). And
exactly that dark energy is used to build up the lightbody.'[The Paris
4/verbatim]
4.
'So is the dragon the serpent leaving the body in kundalini fire on September
4 1986, or the beast 'let out' in the Night of the Soul, 14 years later?'[Forum-post

'In myth the hero is the one who conquers the dragon, not the one who is
devoured by it (through kalagni, the fire of time that slowly cooks all
creatures to death/Berg). And yet both have to deal with the same dragon (kalagni/Berg).
Also, he is no hero who never met the dragon, or who, if he once saw it,
declared afterwards that he saw nothing. Equally, only one who has risked the
fight with the dragon and is not overcome by it wins the hoard, the "treasure
hard to attain." He alone has a genuine claim to selfconfidence, for he has
faced the dark ground of his self and thereby gained himself.'[1970:par. 756]
6.
'The "treasure hard to attain" lies hidden in the ocean of the unconscious,
and only the brave can reach it. I conjecture that the treasure is also the
'companion', the one who goes through life at our side - in all probability a
close analogy to the lonely ego who finds a mate in the self, for at first the
self is the strange non-ego.' [1970:par. 235]

'An alleged Soviet autopsy on Hitler's remains made shortly after the war
claimed Hitler was monorchic (i.e. having only one testicle/Berg), but some
historians dismiss this reference as propaganda. This autopsy was released
around 1970.'[Wikipedia]
'Grunberg probably only wanted to make another Nazi-connection (Xavier was
the teenage grandson of an SS officer) by letting Xavier lose a testicle through
circumcision, since Hitler himself allegedly missed a testicle too. But it is
striking nonetheless that we have a homosexual redeemer/Messiah here with only
one testicle. Pure coincidence, no doubt, but a very meaningful one in the light
of the Forbidden Letters.'[L. Tausendschön]

'It is the electromagnetic force (i.e. light) that binds atoms and molecules
together and gives shape to form and matter.'[Stephen Hawking]
12.
'Well, if an expert like Hawking assures us that life is orchestrated by
light (i.e. the electromagnetic force), why can't life have been
created by that
force too? In other words: can't God be the electromagnetic force?'[L.

'Turn inward for your voyage. You will not find the Stone in foreign
parts.'[Angelus Silesius]

'Silesius says that the stone is to be found in man only. But how can it be
explained then that that stone is everywhere in creation at the same time, as
alchemy claims.'[L. Tausendschön]

'The Paris 4 tell us that Stone is 'pointy and about the size of a child's
fist.'
That it ignites the resurrectional fire of Kundalini and 'that it is produced
about where the liver is.' This last remark by the Paris 4 reminded me of a
remark by Georges Dumezil .
Dumezil conjectured that the Titan Prometheus stole not the chemical fire for
our ovens, but the fire of immortality. Zeus then punished him for this by
having him bound to a rock while a great eagle (central bird in Alchemy
representing Spirit) ate his liver every day, only to have it grow back to be
eaten again the next day.'[Jos Winter on the Forbidden Letters]
18.
'I asked myself how the Gods in the Prometheus-myth could feel threatened by
the theft of everyday fire. But if the fire of immortality is at stake here,
then the rage of the Gods would indeed be explained.'[L. Tausendschön/my
emphasis]

´And the Lord God said, "The man has now become like one of us,
knowing good
and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the
tree of life and eat, and live forever." - ´[Genesis 3/my emphasis]

'When you succeed in awakening Kundalini-fire, you necessarily start a world
which is totally different from our world. It is a world of
eternity.'[Carl
Jung/my emphasis]
21.
'I always wondered why knowledge about good and evil should clash with
immortality.'[L. Tausendschön]
22.
'An alchemist who has to descend (into the earth/Cicci) is somehow pulled of
course. And this strongly suggests gravitational forces might be at work here to
enter this mysterious dimension of traverse. And this makes a lot of sense.
Because physicists discovered that only the force of gravity 'is capable of
exerting an extra-dimensional influence.'[2008:188] The other three forces of
nature, the electromagnetic, the weak nuclear and the strong nuclear are not
capable of exerting such influence. 'Only the gravitational force can leak into
other dimensions.’[Ibid.][Sriram][Julia Cicci on the Forbidden Letters]
23.
'But how can gravity be involved here? Because that force doesn't change.'[L.
Tausendschön]
24.
'Gravity doesn't change with time. The force of gravity, the amount that it
pulls on an object, depends on only two things: the mass of the object doing the
pulling, and how far away it is.'[Plait, 2002:65]
25.
'All the mass of the earth is concentrated into a tiny point at its
center.'[Ibid:66]
'At the same time, the anthropic principle [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle
] tells us that there can be no extraterrestrial intelligence fundamentally
different from humanity in our universe.'[Dick, 1998:266]
'Norman Lamm pointed to precedents in medieval Jewish thought and declared
that it was prudent to explore "a Jewish exo-theology, an authentic Jewish view
of God and man in a universe in which man is not the only intelligent resident,
and perhaps inferior to many other races."-'[Dick, 1998:251]

'A little metallic like wheel (like in a clock) starts to spin in the
decapitated head, either on the left side, or the right side (our gay man
doesn't remember), near the ear and then, spinning fast, makes a 90 degree move
to the forehead. (We can't help thinking about Revelation/ the sign on the
foreheads.)'[The Paris 4]

'In Alchemy salvation is more a matter of the healing of man to the fullness
of cosmic life, than it is a saving from the world.'[Girardot, 1983:198]

'In 1961 the Princeton physicist Robert Dicke [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_H._Dicke ] pointed out that life could
not exist at any random time in the history of the universe, but only after the
universe had reached a certain age. Thus, the physical constant known as the
Hubble Age [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble's_law ] of the universe "is not
permitted to take on an enormous range of values, but is somewhat limited by the
biological requirements to be met during the epoch of
man."- '[Dick, 1998:254/my emphasis]
34.
'It is possible, John Wheeler [
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Archibald_Wheeler ] suggested, that
in the same way that quantum physics found the observer and the observed to have
a close and totally unexpected relationship, the study of the physical world
"will lead back in some now-hidden way to man himself,
to conscious mind, tied unexpectedly through the very acts of observation and
participation to partnership in the foundation of the
universe." -'[Dick, 1998:256/my emphasis]

better or more precious than this. It is in a simple form and has the power of
