“Elohim [אלהים gods and goddesses] stand in the congregation of El [all the generations of our Inner God-Brahma-Abraham]: thus, among the Elohim [אלהים gods and goddesses] he [our Innermost] judges. Till when will you judge perversely? And lift up the face of [your Ego] the wicked? Selah. Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to [the consciousness of] the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy [archetypes]: rid them out of the hand of [your Ego] the wicked. They [the wicked egos] know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations [Yesod-sex] of the earth are out of course. I have said, You are Elohim; and all of you are children of [Ra] Elion עליון [the Highest]. But as Adam you shall die, and fall like [Tiphereth] one of the princes. Kuma [arise] Elohim, judge the earth [Malkuth]: for you [El – Chesed] shall inherit all – הגוים Ha-Goyim (the archetypes) – the nations.” – Psalm 82

When we read that אלהים Elohim, or the gods and goddesses, stand in the congregation of El , likewise we have to refer to the Tree of Life.

Let us understand that in the Tree of Life, in Olam Atziluth, עולם אצילות, the world of archetypes, El  is a sacred name of God in relation to the Sephirah Chesed, which means “mercy,” and this is something very important to understand. When we are addressing Chesed, we are addressing our own particular individual spirit, our Innermost, named Atman in Sanskrit. So, understand that in Hebrew El  means God; thus, when we read that אלהים Elohim stands in the congregation of El , the Psalm 82 is stating that my El , your El  or innermost, the El  or the innermost of each one of us, that is, all the El  of people together, are אלהים Elohim. But behold and understand that in order for the El  of any one of us to stand in the congregation as אלהים Elohim, our particular El  has to achieve the realization of his Self, because our Monad, our own spirit, our own Chesed should and must be among the אלהים Elohim, the self-realized masters. Therefore, we have to understand that when a master gives a judgment it always agrees with the rest of the masters, or as the Psalm states: “thus, among the Elohim [אלהים gods and goddesses] he [El , our Innermost] judges.”

Sometimes they are simply called the two witnesses. Other times it’s called the witness and the servant. It’s all pointing towards the same symbol. Remember we read a quote before about a reed, let us now go to the end of the Bible, to Revelation 11:

And there was given me a reed [kalamos, קנה qaneh] like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.

But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

And I will give power unto my two witnesses [martyria: testify, martyr, עד od], and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

These are the two olive trees [duo elaia: two olives], and the two candlesticks [duo luchnia] standing before the God of the earth [ghay: soil].

Revelation 11:1 – 4

Let us unpack this and explain how it relates to everything we have explained so far. We have been speaking about the different archetypes that need to be developed in our inner church and our inner temple. This progress, we can say, is “measured upon the reed” and the reed represents the spinal column. The greater the measurement, the greater the degree – the energy – that is flowing through the reed. If you look at a bamboo reed for example, you will see that there are pockets. Each one of those divisions is like a pocket, like a cell, and atop each is another cell, until the top is reached. Similar to the different vertebrae of our spine. As the energy is purified, the principles are making a deeper and more profound connection related to our spinal column.

As we develop that energy, we are developing our inner temple. But the court which is without the temple, leave them out, meaning don’t let your ego in. They are not meant for the temple. What is meant for the temple are the inner archetypes developed in the Light. And it says “I will give power to my two witnesses” – this again is martyria “and they shall prophecy… these are the two olive trees and two candlesticks.”

It is stating that the two witnesses are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks. The Gnostic understanding here becomes a little more obvious when you investigate the two olive trees. This in Greek is duo elia. Duo is two, and elia is olives. It is often translated as two olive trees. But more literally it’s the two olives.

If I were to tell you that you must take care of your two olives because they are very delicate, and that you need to take care of your olives, make sure you don’t get harmed. They are very important. You may use your imagination to understand that they represent the gonads, the two testicles or the two ovaries. These are our two olives.

These two olives, of course, if you know how to work with the two olives, you’ll get olive oil. This oil represents our base energy which is sex. Depending on how you use that oil is very important. Remember the word khrestos, Christ, means fire and light. But the literal meaning is anointed one and what you anoint one with is oil. So, these are the two olive trees, the two candlesticks, the two witnesses, duo luchnia. This duo is two, luchina is the thing that creates Light, the candlestick for the God of the earth. When we say God of the earth, we are talking about the lower manifestations of our self. Certainly, we need to make these greater and more developed connections to our Inner Spirit, but God exists everywhere. Within ourselves, it does exist within our body.
