1 And Gods blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.
The forces of creation cause this meditative state to strengthen, becoming more peaceful as the consciousness expands.
2 The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every bird of the air, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea; into your hand they are delivered.
This practice places your consciousness at a level of awareness that is higher than other living things. It also gives you some control over these things.
3 Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.
Following this path enables you to expand your consciousness regardless of dietary habits. You may eat meat, vegetables, fruit, etc. and still continue to grow spiritually on this path.
4 Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.
However, it isn’t safe to eat food that has not been cooked properly, meaning the blood is removed.
5 For your lifeblood I will surely require a reckoning; of every beast I will require it and of man; of every man's brother I will require the life of man.
However, the balance of nature must be respected. Killing something affects the entire food chain. This must be done sparingly so as not to kill too many of any given animal. Killing of humans is forbidden. The price exacted for it is the sacrifice of your own life.
6 Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for Gods made man in their own image.
All humans are made by the forces of creation in their image. As such, they are sacred. Killing another human is just cause for another human to kill you.
7 And you, be fruitful and multiply, bring forth abundantly on the earth and multiply in it."
All people on this path (the Path of Noah) are to live by these rules. Pass this knowledge on to others.
8 Then Gods said to Noah and to his sons with him,
9 "Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your descendants after you,
10 and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark.
This is a promise to all humans that walk this path, and removed themselves from the previously mentioned paths.
11 I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth."
With the corruption removed from the psyche, the people on this path need no longer fear destruction. The forces of creation will not destroy them, as they did with the paths mentioned before this one.
12 And Gods said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations:
The forces of creation will make a sign symbolizing the promise of this path.
13 I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.
The sign is a rainbow. It symbolizes the process of spiritual purification that those that are on this path have gone through.
14 When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds,
15 I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.
For as long as you follow this path, you are protected from being destroyed by the forces of creation.
16 When the bow is in the clouds, I will look upon it and remember the everlasting covenant between Gods and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth."
The rainbow is a symbol of the spiritual purity that protects from destruction that was spoken of in the previous passage.
17 Gods said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth."
18 The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan.
The three primary spiritual influences remaining after the purification of those on the Path of Noah, which is Meditation, are Reverence\respect for the forces of creation, fervent prayer, and the expansion of consciousness. Fervent prayer, which, in this context, means the concentration of spiritual forces, created the physical body. In other words, the physical body is concentrated spiritual energy.
19 These three were the sons of Noah; and from these the whole earth was peopled.
From these three influences all parts of your being were created.
20 Noah was the first tiller of the soil. He planted a vineyard;
The meditative state symbolized by Noah, was the first state of the mind before the development of the Ego. It created the Ego, which is symbolized by the vineyard.
21 and he drank of the wine, and became drunk, and lay uncovered in his tent.
The creation of the Ego contaminated this state, but it was still present to a large degree.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.
The concentration of spiritual forces perceived the continued presence of the meditative state, and affected the state of consciousness and the respect for the forces of creation.
23 Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it upon both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father's nakedness.
The state of consciousness and respect for the forces of creation, which are both obedient to this new consciousness called Ego, conceal the meditative state.
24 When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him,
25 he said, "Cursed be Canaan; a slave of slaves shall he be to his brothers."
When the meditative state again returns to the surface of consciousness, it makes the body and Ego subservient to Cush, which means “burned” or “blackened”, symbolizing darkened thought in which man has held his body and it’s activities, the seemingly mortal, physical part of himself. Egypt or Mizraim in Hebrew, means “restrictions” and “bondage”, and symbolizes the belief that life and a person’s own being is bound to physical matter, suffering, and all forms of error that hinder him from receiving good. Put means “state of being stifled” and signifies the darkened, sorrowful, and very material dying state of mind and body that results from a lack of spiritual inspiration, of the absorption and understanding of Spirit.
26 He also said, "Blessed by YHVH, my Gods, be Shem; and let Canaan be his slave."
Meditation causes the forces of creation to ally with the reverence they are given. Meditation also causes respect for the forces of creation to dominate the body. The body will manifest according to the respect given to the forces of creation.
27 Gods enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem; and let Canaan be his slave."
Meditation causes the forces of creation to empower the expansion of consciousness, symbolized by Japheth. The expansion of consciousness should occur with respect for the forces of creation. Meditation causes the body to manifest according to the respect given to those forces.
28 After the flood Noah lived three hundred and fifty years.
29 All the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
