The following text was utilized as the basis for discussion in a lecture of the free online course about the real meaning of the Book of Revelation.
Revelation 4![]() After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter. After this (development of churches, chakras and plexuses by means of the ascension of the creative energy in each of the seven bodies) I (Tiphereth, took the Path of Renunciation and) looked (towards my Crown Chakra), and, behold, a door (in my Pineal Gland) was opened (and as a Human Soul I entered) in (the) heaven (of Atziluth): and the first voice (or the First Logos, the Father Kether) which I heard (with my Chakra Vishuddha) was as it were of (Aleph, or as the strength sound of the Akasic Wind blown through) a trumpet talking with me; which said, come up hither (since you, as a Human Soul, are already skilful in leaving and entering into your solar bodies through the Coronary Chakra), and I will show you (the necessary) things (of perfection) which must (need to) be (acquired) hereafter (your Second Birth). ![]() And immediately I was in the spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.
![]() And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold. And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
![]() And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.
![]() And the first living creature was like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature had a face as a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle. And the four living creatures had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.
![]()
And when those living creatures give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
