Ashiata Shiemash

ASHIATA SHIEMASH

"Although the solar system Ors
had been neglected because of
its remoteness from the Center
and for many other reasons, the
Most Holy Cosmic Individuals
surrounding our Common Father
Endlessness had sent
Messengers from time
to time to the planets
of this solar system, to
regulate more or less the
process of existence of the
three-brained beings arising
there, and to bring it into
accord with the general
world harmony.

"And thus to one of the planets
of this solar system, the planet
called 'Earth,' a Messenger was
once sent from our Endlessness—-
a certain Ashiata Shiemash. And
as Beelzebub had fulfilled a
special task indispensable to
his mission, this Messenger,
upon his return to the Sun
Absolute, earnestly besought
His Endlessness to pardon the
once young and fiery but now
aged Beelzebub.

"In view of this request of
Ashiata Shiemash, and also
of the modest and conscious
existence of Beelzebub himself,
our Maker Creator pardoned him
and gave him permission to
return to the place of his
arising."
--ch 2
--Beelzebub in our solar system

A Great Being, of Great Benevolence,
of Great Harmlessness, so harmless
as to be so close to God Above who
is Himself All-Loving, All-
Forgiving, All-Merciful, and
All-Beneficent, such a being
as described by Gurdjieff and
went by the name of Ashiata
Shiemash, and for Israel
goes by the name of
David in scripture.

Ashiata Shiemash did not
preach and did not teach.

"The Very Saintly Ashiata
Shiemash taught nothing
whatever to the ordinary
three-brained beings of
the Earth, nor did he
preach anything to them,
as was done before and
after him by all the
other Messengers sent
from Above with the
same aim."
ch 25, Ashiata Shiemash

Ashiata Shiemash spread . . .
"the idea that in the 'subconscious'
of all men there are crystallized and
always present the data manifested from
Above for engendering in them the divine
impulse of genuine Conscience, and that
only he who acquires the 'ableness' to
let the action of these data participate
in the functioning of that consciousness
in which he passes his everyday
existence has, in an objective
sense, the honest right to be
called and really to be a
genuine son of our Common
Father Creator of all
that exists."
--ch 27

Ashiata Shiemash as an
infinitesimal point of light
from Above was coated with the
planetary body of a three-centered
being of the Earth with the aim of
helping all other Earth beings to
free themselves from the consequences
of the properties of the organ kundabuffer
which, for reasons necessary and great,
"great" meaning on a cosmic scale, was
implanted in their ancestors. Ashiata
Shiemash observed that the three-
brained beings of Earth at times
believe, love, and hope both with
their Reason and with their feelings,
but HOW they believe, HOW they love,
and HOW they hope—-in this lies all
the peculiarity of their abnormal
way of life concerning these three
being-properties of theirs owing as
always to the consequences of the
properties of the organ kundabuffer—-
as, for instance, those peculiar
properties arising in them which
they call "vanity," "self-love,"
"pride," "self-importance," and
so forth which had passed to them
by heredity and were so maleficent
for them. After much pondering
with all the separate ruminating
parts making up the whole of his
"I," Ashiata Shiemash then determined
that only if the being-factor called
"objective conscience" still surviving
in their common presence, that is to
say, such sacred conscience is not
yet atrophied unlike, unfortunately,
the sacred being-impulses of Faith,
Love and Hope which have, in fact
and without doubt, completely
degenerated, were to
participate in the general
functioning of the consciousness
under whose direction they pass
their daily "waking existence"—-
only then would it be possible to
save the contemporary terrestrial
three-brained beings of Earth from
the consequences of the properties
of that organ kundabuffer which was
intentionally implanted in their
first ancestors.

There was a time
when there were. . . .

" . . . . still preserved in
the instinct of the Asiatic
beings the results of the
influence of the 'initiates'
and 'priests,' disciples of
the Very Saintly Ashiata
Shiemash, who through their
sermons had inculcated one
of the chief commandments
of Ashiata Shiemash, which
declared:

'DO NOT KILL ANOTHER
EVEN WHEN YOUR OWN
LIFE IS IN DANGER.'"
