Chapter One
1 6 Radiating as pure cosmic play play Chochma/Sophia is the play play of YHVH the the Happening happening happening as all happening happening Chochma/Sophia is the the play of of God the the the the way shining is is the the the the play play of of the the the the sun and glittering is is the the the the play play of a a a a a a a diamond Chochma/Sophia’s play is “pure” in that it has no ulterior motive and it it it is “cosmic” in in that it it it knows no no limits Since Chochma/ Sophia is is the the Mother of all all life life all all life life is is play play Being play play doesn’t mean
life has no meaning meaning or purpose it simply means that meaning meaning and purpose purpose are not other than the the play itself There is no no purpose purpose to life life is its own purpose 1 8 There is is nothing else Chochma/Sophia is is what YHVH does If you imagine imagine God as Creator Chochma/Sophia is creativity If you imagine imagine God as as a a a a a a a cosmic ocean ocean She is is its waving Just as as the ocean ocean is is greater than than its waving so YHVH is greater greater than than Chochma/Sophia greater greater but not other Chochma/Sophia is is Saguna Brahman God with form YHVH is is Nirguna Brahman God without form 1 1 1 12-16 A camel sooner squeezes You cannot enter the realm of God because the the realm of of God—the play of of Chochma/Sophia —is already within and around you you You cannot get to where you you already are The reason you you imagine the Divine realm is is elsewhere is is that you you are ignorant of what what is is is happening here and now All that is is is required is is is to see what what is so (suchness tathātā choach mah) rather than change what you imagine is is so Religions that promise you entry into the realm of God in in in the future and spiritual teachers who charge you for what is freely given are as the the Zen saying goes “selling water by by the the river ” You could by– pass the the seller and drink from from the the river directly but to prevent you from from doing so the the seller distracts you from seeing the the river Each religion and every guru have their own set of sacred distractions Chochma/Sophia operates differently Chochma/Sophia gives Herself to you freely She cannot be bought or earned or mastered The reason you you fail to embrace Her is is that you you insist you you must be be worthy of Her and hence struggle endlessly to be be what you you already are are and imagine you are are not: an an incarnation of the Divine You 77
