Albums Jay Electronica - A Written Testimony (Discussion Thread)

[Earnings]

He’s god body like the Wu. 5%ers. He dropped that on the last album


Arm, leg, leg, arm, head, this is God body
Knowledge, wisdom, freedom, understanding we just want our equality
Food, clothing, shelter help a nikka find some peace
Happiness for a gangsta, ain't no love in these streets



that’s all god body beliefs. It’s like off brand Muslims.

And Ghost and or RZA was posed to be on that bytch

ill be honest, there are some songs like the joint with ALC where Jigga had no business at all being on the track, this is a jay elec album through and through and personally am satisfied. its not that jay elec is washing jigga, i just dont feel like this is his comfort zone, but overall this is dope

8/10 on two listens will listen once more with headphones

It's nice, production could be a bit better

Wish Just Blaze produced it like he was supposed to do on KGB

I wonder if Jay just isn't fukking with JB anymore

“You can catch this broad daylight, you know the Kingdom come, sir
That wheel inside the wheel, a half a mile in circumference“

Merkabah, also spelled Merkaba, is the divine light vehicle allegedly used by ascended masters to connect with and reach those in tune with the higher realms. "Mer" means Light. "Ka" means Spirit. "Ba" means Body. Mer-Ka-Ba means the spirit/body surrounded by counter-rotating fields of light, (wheels within wheels), spirals of energy as in DNA, which transports spirit/body from one dimension to another





Wheels Within Wheels

Spoiler

In medieval Judaism, the beginning of the book of Ezekiel was regarded as the most mystical passage in the Bible, and its study was discouraged, except by mature individuals with an extensive grounding in the study of traditional Jewish texts.

Jewish biblical commentaries emphasize that the imagery of the Merkaba is not meant to be taken literally; rather the chariot and its accompanying angels are analogies for the various ways that God reveals Himself in this world.

Maimonides in his 13 principles of faith emphasies that God is not limited to any particular form, as this prophesy might seem to imply.

Chassidic philosophy and Kaballah explain at length what each aspect of this vision represents in this world, and how they in no way imply that God is made up of these forms. The danger of understanding these passages as literal descriptions of God's image likely accounts for the opposition among Torah scholars towards learning this topic without the proper initiation. Jews customarily read the Biblical passages concerning the Merkaba in their synagogues every year on the holiday of Shavuot.

@Ninjaz In Paris went back to read every page of this thread... https://www.thecoli.com/threads/the...g-be-careful-what-you-say-in-it.285465/page-7 researched the Merkaba meditation and found this. Full circle.
