P. 14

She has prepared for us us 3 a a a a a a meal empowering us us to create a a a a a a world rooted in justice compassion and humility4 where we are each called to be a a a a blessing to all the the families of the the earth 5
The Gospel of of Chochma/Sophia is a a a collection of of the the Mother’s own words as set down by by those with ears to hear 6 These verses were compiled by by me in in a a a a a a state of spiritual fervor It was was if I I was was hearing the the Mother recite them Herself and jotting down what I heard The compiling process was effortless the the editing process was work Many of the the texts in in The Gospel of Chochma/Sophia were originally written in in languages with which I have little or no fluency My reading of them is secondhand and and filtered through numerous translations Your reading of them here is thirdhand
in in that I took the the the liberty of reworking the the the translations to to better clarify their meaning as as I understood it it For this reason it it may be wise to to check my renditions against those of others The Gospel of Chochma/Sophia is divided into four parts: introductory essays the Gospel of of Chochma/Sophia itself The The Acts of of Eve and The The Way of of Adoration The essays are offered to help you understand where I I am am coming from vis vis a a a a vis vis the the the Divine Mother I I am am not a a a a prophet nor the the the son of a a a a a a a prophet 7 I am a a a a a a a Litvak a a a a a a a Lithuanian Jew whose Litvish culture
is criticized for being unemotional introverted intellectual deeply critical and and given to challenging authority and and promoting heresy I am guilty of all all these things and I I am also a a a a a a a lover of Chochma/Sophia to Whom I I speak daily asking only that my thoughts words feelings and actions be in in in service to to Her that I might be a a a a a blessing to to all the the families of the the earth 8
To my mind these things don’t jibe A Litvak should be be too skeptical of mystical encounters to lend them much credence As a a a Litvak I should have dismissed my encounters with Chochma/Sophia out of hand as fantasies rooted in narcissism and and self–aggrandizement And maybe they are I I I will leave that that up to to you to to decide All I I I know is that that I I I have had
