Cosmic Doctrine, the Cabala, and Greek Theogony

[randomactsofkarmasc]

I have been working on a series of meditations to correlate The Cosmic Doctrine with the Cabala (as presented by Levi in High Magic and JMG in Paths of Wisdom).  As I worked with the ideas, I began to see how a theogony of the Greek pantheon could be aligned with the Cabala ("a" theogony, not "the" theogony, as I borrowed deities and myths from a variety of mythographers).

I don't consider my metaphor to be "right" or "done"; I'm sure I'll be revising it as I learn and grow.  I attribute much of my learning and growth to JMG and his commentariat, so I am sharing this in hopes that some of you may have time to read my metaphor and provide feedback or, if you have been working on your own metaphor or Cosmic Doctrine/Cabala alignment, that you'll consider sharing yours.

Thank you for sharing, this is fascinating! I have read the CosDoc, but not yet had a chance to dive into Cabala, so I don't have much commentary, but I look forward to giving it better than a skim at some point soon.

Many thanks for this! Looking forward to reading it in detail!

Started reading this then got to the pictures and realized this will take much more in depth reading. This looks very interesting and might help me make sense of what I'm getting from levi's high magic as well as Greers Paths of wisdom(which I'm meditating through currently).

Look forwarding to reading. Both Pico della Mirandola and Jean DuBuis have a correspondence schemata that links the Greek pantheon to Cabala, for whatever it's worth...

For whatever it may be worth: glancing at your work it strikes me as frankly brilliant discursive meditation rife with deep insights. Personally, I tend to think in terms of different metaphors. That said, I thought I'd drop in to note my admiration!

Thank you for sharing your work!

I arrived near the very end of the Cosmic Doctrine study group on the other blog, so I'm not that familiar with the material. And Cabala is a complete terra incognita to me! With that in mind, I am impressed with the energy and commitment you've put into creating your Metaphor, and I look forward to revisiting it when I have a better grasp of the fundamentals.
