meditation on shabbatean liturgical calendar |
post by gur dimei
we all know that the liturgical calendar is modeled after the bio-procedures and the historical configurations of God. for mashuchim aka christians, the liturgical calender celebrates the mysteries of the life of christ – his birth, his enjoyments, his illuminations and his passion. on the other hand, Jews model their liturgical calendar after the lives of Israel and the Torah. few know that we shabbateans also model our liturgical calendar after the life of maran malkan mashichan aka sha”tz. “RO”Sh ChoDe”Sh [“beginning of month”] equals His name and attribute [ShaBTa”Y TzV”I] and He fixes the 12 months by the letters B”Y of ShaBTa”Y.” ~the darush, published in b'ikvot mashiach, p. 44. we learn that the name of sha”tz is itself a model of divine affirmation. the name B”Y will amend, shape and fulfill the 12 months, which are in the aspect of “still waters” (“meimoi shechichin”), which are not yet “fixed”, and eventually reveal the new Torah, in which history and calendar will be shaped anew and resurrected, in the procedure of kiddush hachodesh (“the sanctification of the month”). the months are organs of divinity, aka tikkunim (“fixments”), and the 6 months in between nisan and tishrei stand for the 6 holes of the face (two ears, two eyes, two nosetrils) through which the spirit (“rucha” – breath) motivates itself; and if the year is a shana me’uberet (“conceived year” aka leap year) then it is added with the fixment of the mouth (“tikkuna d’fuma”). but there is a danger: according to R’ Natan, the strength of the serpent is in the mouth. and this is why there have been customs of mourning during conceived years. what we can conclude is that the liturgical calendar, for R’ Natan, is not only modeled after life/affirmation, but also primarily functioning as a medium for the struggle against impurity, chaos and death. as we can see, the calendar is modeled like this: |
