God sent Dune to me at a time when I faced major restrictions. As a Jew, a student and practitioner of Universal Mystique Wisdom, the Qabalah, I soon started to recognize in Duna elements hidden in old books, I say former because they were revealed more than 2,000 years.
I'll try to get at what's on my mind now, a matter of the Messiah as revealed in the Zohar for 2,000 years.
The Zohar says: “After 1266 years, we're told, God shall perform many miracles and wonders, and after another 66 years, the Holy Name will be perfectly engraved, above and below. After a further 132 years, the Holy Land will be purified and God will shake the wicked from the earth and raise the dead. Finally, 144 years later, the remaining dead of Yisrael who are in other lands will also be raised, and the Other Side will be destroyed”.
I studied very hard this portion of the Zohar, and always with Dune in my thoughts, and soon a secret was revealed to me that here was related to the year in which Dune won his two major awards (Hugo & Nebula) with age as the Master Frank Herbert chose to hide this world. This secret is hidden in the numbers 1266, 66, 132, 144. By adding them up, I found the result of 1608. After a few moments, "The Voice" came up to me and said: "Make the addition of 1608 with the numeric value of the word Messiah in Hebrew."
The word Messiah in Hebrew is "Mashiach" and its numerical value (gematria) is 358. So 1608 +358 = 1966.
The word Messiah in Hebrew is "Mashiach" and its numerical value (gematria) is 358. So 1608 +358 = 1966.
So, the Zohar was written over 2,000 years: “In the year 66, the King Mashiach will appear in the land of Galilee (BethLechem), AND HE IS CALLED MASHIACH BEN YOSEF (MESSIAH, THE SON OF YOSEF) HE WILL THEREFORE APPEAR IN THE GALILEE, IN THE POSSESSION OF YOSEF”. Messiah son of Joseph, is a manifestation of Yesod, which is the "Hall of Secrets," where only the Righteous (Tzadiqim) can enter.
Strangely, not by chance, I was born in 1966 in a neighborhood of Sao Paulo called Bethlehem which is a superior connection to Bethlehem, the constellation Virgo also called Bethlehem, whose symbol is a young virgin in his left hand holding a sheaf of wheat. I was destined from my birth to a profound and mystical experience with Dune.
The Zohar continues showing signs that accompany the appearance of the Messiah: “A pillar of fire (Amud Ha´Esh) reaching from heaven to earth will appear for forty days. At this time, the Messiah will rise in Galilee and begin to wage war on the world from there, because this is where the devastation first began”.
In Dune, when the Duke Leto comes to Arrakis, the Fremen to send him a message: "A column of smoke during the day, a pillar of fire by night." For me it became clear that God had used Frank Herbert for revealing to mankind the mysteries of the rise of the Messiah, and I find out more:
Dune won the Hugo and Nebula in 1966 and Master Frank Herbert hidden from this world at 66. Is this a coincidence? Obviously not, since the evidence add up to more than allowed by the law of chance.
The Zohar emphasizes the residence where the Messiah hidden lives, and frighteningly Frank Herbert also revealed that in Dune.
The Zohar says: “There is a concealed place in
In Dune the home planet of Paul Muad'Dib is in "Delta Pavonis" in the constellation of Pavo, and the mystical symbol of House Atreides is the "Falcon" and the “falcon” is a bird and the Hebrew word for “bird” is “Tzipor”. Much wonderful information the Holy One, blessed be He, gave to Frank Herbert.
Messiah is a "Tzadiq Nistar (Hidden righteous)" in other words the Messiah is a spark that lives within ourselves and we have to wake up. Thus, in the Dune Duke Leto, Paul Atreides Father´s says: "I'll miss the sea, But the person Needs new experiences. They jar something deep inside, Allowing him to grow. Without change something sleeps inside us, and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken". It is our task "Wake the Sleeper" within ourselves.
Only those who are in search of true enlightenment and have a connection to the Holy Zohar find within themselves the Messiah and will wake up, because they know the evidence. Dune also helps us to know some of this evidence. The messiah is not a person but a consciousness. Thus, Alejandro Jorodowsky, the first to try to bring to film Dune, wrote: "There is a Hebraic legend Which says:" The Messiah Will Not Be a man But one day: the day When all the Human Beings Will Be illuminated "Qabalists speak about the conscience collective, cosmic, the species of Meta-Universe. And here are what for me all the DUNE project was”.
The other mission that reveals Dune is the search of every Jew for the Ancient Tradition of the Jews of the Desert, the Judaism of Abraham and Moses, the Mystical Paths of the Torah.
Frank Herbert, the Atreides Family and
Bloodline of King David
Both the book and the 1984 movie is said that the "Bene Gesserit" sought to produce the Messiah through weddings and specific genetic selection. In the book the mother of the Messiah is called "Jessica". Now Ishayahu the prophet (Isaiah) wrote:
"And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: (Isaiah 11:1)."
The name Paul Muad'Dib's mother, Jessica, is the feminine of "Jesse" and here there is a hint that the Dune Messiah comes from the bloodline of David ha "Melech (King David), both the mother's side as the paternal side, since the Duke Leto Atreides is a cousin of Emperor Padishá Shaddam IV of the imperial family.
But the secret does not stop there, because the author Frank Herbert also belonged to the bloodline of King David, though not "Jew" as defined and dictated by the "Orthodox Halacha." How do I know and I can prove it? Here's the evidence: In Tana'k in the Book of Micah we find the following:
"But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting (Micah 5:2)".
א וְאַתָּה בֵּית-לֶחֶם אֶפְרָתָה, צָעִיר לִהְיוֹת בְּאַלְפֵי יְהוּדָה--מִמְּךָ לִי יֵצֵא, לִהְיוֹת מוֹשֵׁל בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל; וּמוֹצָאֹתָיו מִקֶּדֶם, מִימֵי עוֹלָם.
In passuq above the letters אֶפְרָתָה are the name Ephrath which is conventionally read from right to left. But when we invert the sense of reading from left to right, Ephrath (אֶפְרָתָה) becomes "5681" which is the Hebrew year corresponding to the Gregorian 1920. The author of Dune, Frank Patrick Herbert, was born on 20 October 1920 (8 of Cheshvan 5681).
Since the term קֶּדֶם is name "Qédem (Kedem)" because the verse does not say "whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting", yes," whose origin is "Qedem." Frank Herbert was the first to mention Qedem in a work of science fiction. The name is in the second book in the series "Dune Messiah". Here we have two pieces of evidence that Frank Herbert belonged to genetic lineage of King David, for the King of Israel was born in "Beith-lech."
Dune won two major awards from the World Science Fiction in the year of publication, 1966 and the author, Frank Herbert died in 1986 aged 66. In Hebrew gematria, the number 66 is the numerical value of "Ben David" which means "Son of David" and the year it was published Dune, 1966 was a year under the influence of the Sefira Malchut (Kingdom) of which is the Merkava David ha'Melech (King David). Now the Messiah Son of David is a manifestation of the Sefira of Malchut.
In the Zohar, which is the highest and most influential work of Kabbalah, we are told that the soul is created by combinations of letters of the Hebrew alphabet (Y-DNA) and that the soul, in turn, prints the same DNA in the body. So we learn that if the soul is rooted in the family of King David, wherever this spark root incarnate, the body's DNA and will have the same genetic markers of the bloodline of King David which is the soul-root.
In the Zohar we also learn that some mysteries can only be discovered and penetrated by those who are of the lineage of King David. Thus, we know that Einstein, Isaac Asimov, HG Wells, The Maharal of Prague and Frank Herbert were certainly the family of King David.
Discovering the bloodline of King David
We were told that the brotherhood "Bene Gesserit" manipulated the bloodlines for 90 generations. In Hebrew, the number 90 is the gematria of the word "Melech" which means "King." When Paul Atreides is presented in the book he is 14 years old. 14 In the Hebrew language is the value of the name David. The sum of two numbers is equal to 104 and this is the gematria of "David Melech" which means "King David".
We have here another evidence of the Davidic line of the Atreides family and that Paul Atreides Muad'Dib was destined to the throne of the Lion (the tribe of Judah).
