Thunder, Perfect Mind

Thunder, Perfect Mind — Part I: The Voice of the Divine Feminine (untampered):

I am the first and the last.

I am the honored one and the scorned one.

I am the whore and the holy one.

I am the wife and the virgin.

I am the mother and the daughter.

I am the members of my mother.

I am the barren one and many are her sons.

I am she whose wedding is great, and I have not taken a husband.

I am the midwife and she who does not bear.

I am the solace of my labor pains.

I am the bride and the bridegroom, and it is my husband who begot me.

I am the mother of my father and the sister of my husband, and he is my offspring.

I am the servant of him who prepared me.

I am the ruler of my offspring.

But he is the one who begot me before the time on a birthday that is not celebrated.

I am the favored one and the one despised.

I am the one who is called life and you have called me death.

I am the one who they call law and you have called me lawless.

I am the one who they pursued and the one who was seized.

I am the one who they scattered, and you have gathered me together.

I am the one before whom you have been ashamed, and you have been shameless to me.

I am she who does not keep festival and I am she whose festivals are many.

I, I am godless, and I am the one whose God is great.

I am the one you have reflected upon, and you have scorned me.

I am unlearned, and they learn from me.

I am the one that you have despised, and you reflect upon me.

I am the one that you have hidden from, and you appear to me.

But whenever you hide yourselves, I myself will appear.

For whenever you appear, I myself will hide from you.

Those who have… to it… senselessly… take me…

from understanding and knowledge.

For from me did the All come forth,

and unto me did the All extend.

I am the honored one and the scorned one.

I am the shameful one and the magnificent one.

I am the one who is weak, and I am the one who is strong.

I am the one who is lowly, and I am the one who is exalted.

I am the one who is perceived as disgraceful, and I am the one who is great.

Why do you hate me, you who love me, and hate those who are loved by me?

You who deny me, confess me,

and you who confess me, deny me.

You who speak the truth about me, tell lies about me.

You who have known me, ignore me.

You who have declared me, keep me silent.

I am knowledge and ignorance.

I am shame and boldness.

I am shameless; I am ashamed.

I am strength and I am fear.

I am war and peace.

Give heed to me.

I am the one who is disgraced and the great one.

Give heed to my poverty and my wealth.

Do not be arrogant when you are wealthy,

nor be ashamed when you are poor.

But in the one, the other finds its sustenance.

You who think of me in understanding, know me.

You who think of me in ignorance, then do not disregard me.

Do not be ignorant of me.

For I am the first and the last.

I am the honored one and the scorned one.

I am the one who is shamed and the one who is shameless.

I am the strength and I am fear.

I am the war and the peace.

Give heed to me.

I am the disgraced and the great one.

Give heed to my poverty and my wealth.

Do not be arrogant when you are wealthy,

nor be ashamed when you are poor.

But in the one, the other finds its sustenance.

You who are enslaved, judge the free.

And you who are free, judge the enslaved.

Because of me, knowledge exists.

I am the one who is questioned, and I am the one who is profaned.

I am the one who is holy, and they are found in me.

I am the mother and the daughter.

I am the members of my mother.

I am the barren one who has many children.

I have received knowledge and I have shared it.

I am the silence that is incomprehensible

and the idea whose remembrance is frequent.

I am the voice whose sound is manifold

and the word whose appearance is multiple.

I am the utterance of my name.

Why, you who hate me, do you love me,

and hate those who love me?

You who deny me, confess me.

You who confess me, deny me.

You who speak truth about me, tell lies about me.

You who know me, be ignorant of me.

I am knowledge and ignorance.

So hear me.

I am the one that is honored and scorned.

I am the one that is called life and death.

I am the one they call law and lawlessness.

But I am she who exists in all fears and strength and trembling.

I am she who is weak, and I am well in a pleasant place.

I am senseless and I am wise.

I am the wisdom of the Greeks

and the knowledge of the barbarians.

I am the one whose image is great in Egypt

and the one who has no image among the barbarians.

I am the one who has been hated everywhere

and who has been loved everywhere.

I am the one called life

and you have called me death.

I am the one who is found in all

and you have found me in none.

Be on your guard.

Do not hate my obedience and do not love my self-control.

In my weakness do not forsake me

and in my strength do not fear me.

For why have you hated me in your counsels?

For I shall exist in all ages.

I am the one who is called Justice

and Violence.

It is I who am sent to you by the Power

and I have come to know those who are mine.

If you bring me your shame

I will show you your pride.

If you bring me your death

I will show you your life.

So hear me and be blessed.

I am the one whose name is not spoken.

I am she who is called She of Many Names.
