I’m a self-ordained, gay rabbi and Jew-ru. I’m also a world class expert on insanity, having tried to kill myself three times and involuntarily committed to mental institutions twice. I was also addicted to drugs, alcohol, food and sex, but I’ve been clean and sober for over 40 years.
If you feel you’ve become an expert on pain and/or suffering over your lifetime, I think I can help you help yourself. I’ve written 37 books on spirituality; produced over five hundred 3-minute TikTok videos [that were eventually banned]; and several longer YouTube videos on the Spiritual Operating System [S.O.S.] that runs us all.
I employ the major world scriptures, chronologically given by God as:
Indigenism [prayer]
Hinduism [navel: self-contemplation]
Judaism [head: wisdom]
Buddhism [genitals: desire]
Taoism: [anus: questioning paradox]
Christianity [heart: love]
Islam [soul: loyalty]
3,800 years ago, our indigenist ancestors unified their belief in millions of gods through Hinduism, using Brahma consciousness as their goal, achievable through reincarnation. It became apparent to ancient man that there was a spiritual method under construction by our Creator, even if it would take many lifetimes to achieve it.
Today most people intuit that there’s only One God Who is everyone’s Teacher. We’ve all been enrolled in the school of life, and we’re all going to graduate. Even Jesus graduated. Nobody really knows if anyone’s going to have to come back to go to this school again. But we all hope that others’ grades aren’t going on our report card.
My major in this school is me. I believe I have the tools [wisdom, love and loyalty] to teach you how to achieve a Ph.D. in you.
You’re a forbidden tree of knowledge planted as a seed in an inner field that you’re turning into a garden. There’s a defiant serpent in your tree or worm in your apple. But everyone becomes defiant in his or her own way. So, be sure your defiance develops into opposition of the part of yourself that refuses to obey you. I can only suggest how to do that. You have to make your conscience your guide. Remember that God as your only Witness within.
Marriage equality is the Achille’s heel of all religious fundamentalists. They suffer an unexamined projection of their desire for forbidden fruit. These fruits [good and evil] hang down from every man’s tree of knowledge. The juice of these fruits corresponds to the words of the serpent that are first uttered by every boy at puberty.
Moses was literally referring to semen when he described the talking serpent in the tree of knowledge as beguiling. But figuratively, the metaphoric words of Moses have inspired the Jewish people for 3,400 years. His words later inspired Jesus and the Prophet Muhammed.
The milk of man emanates out of his penis to create life. The milk of woman emanates out of her breasts to sustain life. But without the pleasure gay people bring to life, what’s the point in living?
Self-ignorance is universal. Therefore, guilt unites us all. Guilt consists of embarrassment, shame and humiliation. Embarrassment of your body can be plummeted with modesty; shame of your character with humility; and humiliation of your circumstances with loyalty to life.
The institutions of the Abrahamic faiths – Judaism , Christianity and Islam – are all partially right and partially wrong. Hope for the future won’t be achieved until there will be a Palestinian state side by side with Israel in which both have marriage equality. Palestine must become a school for spirituality. Islam must give up their hatred of gays and Jews. All the world must defy the sick, ancient edicts of their faith that have oppressed women and gay people down through the ages. Without an understanding of the importance of all the world’s faiths in mastering our Spiritual Operating System [S.O.S.], peace within and peace on Earth can’t happen.
Because my unorthodox curriculum uses metaphors from Judaism, symbols from Christianity, and similes from the Islam to unlock the Abrahamic scriptures, you’ll find me to be an unusual tutor in the school of life. My boyfriend calls me an academia nut, but I’m also a fruit from a forbidden tree all my own. The philosophy I’ve developed will teach you how to become increasingly more intimate with yourself.
Our universal Teacher is teaching us individually how to become wise, loving and loyal to ourself, whether your personal Tutor is Adonai, Jesus or Archangel Gabriel. The more we achieve a head, heart and soul, the more genuinely we’re able to express our faith in ourself through our interactions with humanity, and with God through prayer.
Don’t be afraid of God.
We in the LGBTQIA+ community aren’t.
Don’t be afraid to learn how to pray a new way.
Keep hope alive by actualizing your potential and improving your grades.
Rome wasn’t built in a day. Rome was built day-by-day.
You don’t have to roam about inside yourself any longer.
