Holy Mass- Mike Bais
This year we celebrated the Holy Mass in the Birth of Light on friday morning the 25th of December. Although the cosmic cycle of light is moving throughout the year, the Divine Light of the Christ was never born and therefore doesn’t move and shall never die. We remembered the Light of Christ that came into the world as a metaphor- for it is we that become awake to that Light instead of that Light be born within us. Nevertheless, Christmass is the reception of this fruit in our own womb (being), receiving it like a mother receives her child and conceive it within gratitude and wonder. When the Light is born we become filled with all the virtues of the Tree of Life. “The Light becomes the Word and the Word becomes Flesh” as was read this day in the Gosel of John (probably the most mystical of all four Canonical Gospels).
This means in esoteric symbolism, that the Light (God) does not only create the world(s) but also becomes the world(s). The body that you are living within is a creation (flesh) out of (and within) the Light of God.
The Word is the Logos or the Christ, Who is the Immanent Presence of God the Transcendent. The Word or Logos and the flesh are one and the same. The One Who creates is the One Who becomes.
The Light of God unfolds moment by moment…..now….now….now…. let us not speak of God in the past and future tense only, but more and more in the present.

Since 2009 I have run my Kabbalah group within the Toledano tradition. This group has lasted until this day and grew out to a mature vessel in order that it may receive from the Higher worlds. The Kabbalistic work is to ‘bring Heaven to earth’ and this is what a soul group within Kabbalah should do. After all these years the group has become semi-international and has reached its capacity with the number of people that participate in it.
Almost three years ago, I have formed a group of Round Table companions. Knights and Ladies of Camelot who gather to meditate, perform rituals and study, discuss and learn from the great myth of the Round Table and the Grail. This initiative is part of the Circle of Avalon- a school of the soul that teaches three lineages: Toledano Kabbalah, Round Table mythology and the teachings of Christ (A.S.A.) Apostolic Succession of Arimathea. These are not separate by any means and blend effortlessly into each other during our meetings. Round Table gatherings were there for centuries, are here today all over the planet and will exist in the furture. This is because the metaphysical and archetypal wisdom and ideas are universal and timeless. The Round Table & the Grail romances are esoteric teachings for those who can discover the metaphor and deep symbolic references. These stories are all about the human being in the 21st century (and beyond). It was once said that a myth is ‘something that never happened but happens all the time’. To live a myth is to re-discover the intimate relationship with our inner wisdom that prevades the universe. The myth moves us from the inside-out, instructing us about the deep questions that concern us.
