    **7. Behold! it is revealed by Aiwass the minister of Hoor-paar-kraat.
    8. The Khabs is in the Khu, not the Khu in the Khabs.
    9. Worship then the Khabs, and behold my light shed over you!

    In verse 7 I can simply take that it is Aiwass that is the voice dictating this book as the minister of Silence - that which is "not". After this is proclaimed the very next verse stresses where the Khabs is. By Khabs I understand this to be our starry nature, our highest divine nature, and our most inner core. The Khu I often hear as being our outer clothing and looking into some definitions this holds true, but it isn't of a gross material nature. The Khu is more fine than that, being Yetziratic, however, still an outer garment worn by humanity.

    The divinity that lies within utilizes the outer garments in order to take action in the world. This statement in the books needs to be made, I take it, to define where these parts of our constitution are and how to regard them. When we attend to and regard our own divine nature we are communicating with the same in the universe and every other man and woman as there is no difference. In this thus, Nuit's light sheds over us as we are a part of her body.

    In some ways, not all ways, this resolves the difference in cultures, religions, philosophies, etc. In light of very recent of events around the world this message still stands even when it seems so opposed. For all of the apparent turmoil in the moment we are destined to transcend this and take our lumps in life to get there. It might take a while, but I'm in it for the long haul.
