Judaism

A person’s personal narrative can be a sacred story.

Chokmah is the second sefira of God’s Holy Tree of Life, a fractal diagram of God experiences and God phenomena. It is known as a distinctly masculine energy of God, and it is associated with ecstatic verbalization, as well as wisdom. Knowledge of the sefirot, spheres of divine manifestation in numerical order, (and the Tree they’re found on) originates in Jewish mysticism.

In several traditions, individuals on a path with God can experience the sefirot as ten distinct mystical states. Chokmah is a very rare and intense ecstatic mystical state.

In Thelema lore, Aleister Crowley received the word “will” from Chokmah in the early 1900s, and that Western occult tradition is based upon the concept of will, and exploring how divine will can positively shape personal will.

It is now 2021. In the last fifty years or so, multiple people in trance states have experienced receiving a new word from Chokmah: Story.

The idea behind this may be that humans are stories for our souls to experience, and we must be responsible to that story. We will also be edified by it. Anyone’s story can be sacred, if it sets the right example for others and holds the right things valuable. In cases where someone’s story sets a good example for hundreds or thousands of years, a sacred story can become a myth.

God (who is good) is in charge of all souls, and they serve God joyfully. This is what feels harmonious about souls.

Even more recently, some people have started receiving the word Effort from Chokmah, and at least one other word since then.
