666 Revealed
Finally we come to perhaps the most mysterious verse in the whole Bible:
"Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the Beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." (Rev 13:18)
Numerous methods have been used to interpret this mysterious phrase but standard numerology is not the key for which we are looking. One must also read the whole chapter very carefully. Notice in verse 17 that those who have the mark bear "the number of his name?" The Christian world is waiting for some great dictator to arise with the number 666 tattooed on his head or something like that, but here we are told that the billions among the masses bear the number themselves? How could they do that?
Some have heard of the Seven Rays and some have not. These are the same as mentioned by John as being the Seven Spirits before the throne of God. The various seven rays go in and out of incarnation here on planet Earth and, during the past 2000 years, in the age of Pisces a certain Ray was prominent. It is the same Ray that governs the Solar Plexus center. What Ray is this and how is it related to the 666 and the Beast? Should we look at the numbers as separate 6 6 6 as well as a unit -- 666? Or possibly 6 x 100, 6 x 10, and 6? What would be the meaning here?
There are several levels from which the 666 can be interpreted, but we want to concentrate on its meaning in the physical context that we have been discussing. This whole chapter deals with the control of the Beast over humanity which is essentially the art of causing man to not focus his attention on the God self (higher than man) but the animal self (lower than man). For the average person the lower always has a stronger pull than the higher.
The number six is the number of the Ray of idealism and lower emotion which governs the age of Pisces and the solar plexus. The six is written three times because it symbolizes the control of the Beast over our three worlds -- the physical (which includes the material and etheric) the astral, or emotional, and the mental worlds.
So keeping this in mind how does the Beast place his mark in your forehead and right hand in these three levels? Remember the forehead symbolizes your thought and thinking and the right hand is your work or actions.
First let us look at what the Christian world as a whole is expecting to happen from the predictions of the Beast and the 666.
Many think the ten horns are ten European nations (others think the United Nations) that will unite and recreate the Roman empire headed by a beastly character that will make Hitler look like Snow White. This dictator will then assume complete control over every living human being except for a batch of Christians who will escape by being raptured into heaven. These raptured ones will then watch on in glee as the rest of us get our just deserts for not accepting their brand of salvation. The justice meted out to us will be a physical mark of some type, which will bear the number 666. This will be an identification number of some type tattooed or implanted in our forehead or right hand that we will have to show to even be able to buy or sell. Thus this supposed anti-Christ will have complete control over our lives.
Some think the number 666 has something to do with the bar code because 666 is encoded into it. Maybe some version of this will be written with a laser on our foreheads.
Now anything is possible. Hitler did have an identification number tattooed on the arms of the imprisoned Jews, but it was the left arm, not the right. He also has his mark, the Swastika, placed on the left arm of his followers and nothing on anyone's forehead. Why did he choose the left arm for all his markings? Probably so he would not be associated with the Beast of Revelations. Even so, would not another Hitler do the same? Since the mark of the Beast on the right hand or the forehead is such common knowledge these are the areas any antichrist would want to avoid using because of the bad press it would generate.
If the world abandoned the progress it has made over the past two thousand years it is possible that a world dictator could arise. Maybe he would tattoo the name of Elmer Fudd on everyone's big toe -- or maybe he would put a mark on everyone's right hand, but this is very unlikely.
Why?
The real critical war that paved the way for the New Age of peace was World Wars One and Two? (World War 2 was really an extension of an unfinished World War 1). This is as close as we will get to Armageddon if the workers of Light do their job and contain the nuclear weapons of the world. The closest thing we have seen that resembles an antichrist was Hitler.
There is no evil genius on the Earth today who can come close to making Hitler look like Snow White. There is not even an equal of Hitler -- thank goodness.
If all goes as planned by the Brotherhood we will move fairly progressively over the next 200 years into the New Age of peace. There will be some unexpected events, some earth changes, some destruction, some wars, but nothing like the Christian or New Age world is expecting. There will be no rapture as believers define rapture.
Neither will the earth be hit by a giant asteroid, neither will the enlightened of humanity be swooped up by a giant space ship, neither will the enlightened ones be taken into some mysterious 4th dimension or even the 5th or 6th dimensions.
The biggest surprises over the next two hundred years are not predicted by anyone with any degree of accuracy in the present. If you look at all the prophesies of doom and then go ahead in time two hundred years and read the history as it will be written, there will not be much of a correspondence. Future historians will make a footnote that the great expected Anti Christ just did not materialize.
Then too, 200 years from now you would think that the big story in history would be the second coming of Christ. The event will be registered by them, but this person will not be called Jesus and future historians will write about him from a similar perspective as current historians write about Abraham Lincoln. This entity will, however, eventually be recognized as one who is greater than Lincoln, but not until the passage of some time.
The real truth is this: The astounding prophecies of doom and a great Antichrist is just a smokescreen used by the Dark Brotherhood to cast an illusion over the real beast, antichrist and meaning of 666 so the masses will continue to bear the mark.
