Un Dieu qui parle ! Broché – 30 septembre 2010
de Michel Hubaut (Auteur) – le blurbe:
“– On every page of the Bible, we can read: ‘God said unto Abraham’, ‘God said unto Moses’, ‘the Oracle of the Lord’… as though God were on regular speaking terms with man.
“So familiar are these expressions that we no longer notice how astonishing they are.
“In fact, they raise many questions. Because no one sees God! God has no mouth! How can he speak to man?
“Are the authors of the Bible claiming that Abraham, Moses or the prophets heard the sound of his voice, at the heart of the Burning Bush, on the mountain, in storms or light breezes?
“Did God give these men a dictation?
“Today, men feel that God is the quiet type.
“Aren’t all these stories just a trick or an illusion that man, in the solitude of his mortality, invented: an imaginary partner for whom he provides both questions and answers?
“We’ve made God ‘say’ so many things over thousands of years, even encouraging men to make war and exterminate their enemies, for God’s greater glory!
“So how does God speak to man? How does he communicate with us?
“How can divine transcendence and infinity make contact with man’s finitude? 🍄🌳🐍
“What language do they speak? How does God speak to us today?
“The entire question of Revelation and the foundations of Judeo-Christianity is posed.
“And how we respond determines in part our way of reading the Scriptures (fundamentalism, literalism), our conception of God (providentialism, interventionism), and how we understand that God still speaks to us.
“Michel Hubaut answers all these questions in a pedagogical and knowledgeable manner.”

This nice coloring is from John Rush site which stretches the image vertically too.
To repair the aspect ratio, I measured Moses’ halo to be round.
Brown & Brown warned us about John Rush’s Blurry Internet Photos — but not about them being stretched like the television-overdose boy in the Wonka factory.

Erroneous Info from John Rush
“Vienna, Austria – Moses Before the Burning Bush, Domenico Fetti*, Oil on Canvas*, 1613 CE.” *That has got to be as wrong as the squashed aspect ratio of the image.
“We see God as the burning bush and he holds one of the symbols for the “bush” in his left hand.
“In the bottom frame, the hand of God comes through the cloud (cap), while the red material around his wrist is the annulus, and the white hand and wrist are the stalk of the mushroom.
“Notice the plants to the right of Moses, the mushroom shapes in his alb and stole, including the celestial erection.”

Debranched Stubs Communicate Non-branching, to Contrast Against the Branching Element
The Problem of Having to Depict Branching in Order to Communicate Non-branching; Solved by Debranched Stubs
Types of Trees I’ve Identified, Well Beyond Just “Mushroom Trees”
I have now identified:
- Mushroom trees
- Liberty Cap
- Cubensis
- Amanita
- Hybrids
- Cubensis shape/color, Liberty Caps in cap, cap has red background with white lines to draw the Liberty Caps
- Blue stem, Liberty Cap shape of cap, red color of cap (popular tauroctony image, which Entheos magazine cover reversed)
- Crossover – Amanita means Psilocybe
- Vine-leaf trees
- Hybrid mushroom tree/ vine-leaf tree combined/paired
- Y Trees
- Mushroom tree with stem branching into two
- eg bestiary salamander, Brinckmann Eden tree plate 7(check)
- Mushroom tree with stem branching into two
- Trident trees
- Mushroom tree with stem branching into three
Primary Meaning of Y Shape: Branching vs. Nonbranching
the ordinary state of consciousness = illusion of branching possibilities
the altered state (loose cognitive binding) = perceive branching of possibilities as an illusion
Secondary Meaning of Y Shape: Control-Thought Receiver + Control-Thought Inserter
Caduceus. Female ruler snake + male ruler snake, = the control-thought receiver/receptacle + the control-thought inserter/injector.
The worldlines of both components of the personal control system are frozen into the timeless pre-existing block universe.
Fingers Pointing Up and Down, the Holy Gesture
The question is not only fingers pointing upward, but along with that, the fingers which are pointed downward.
We saw a different meaning-system come into view as I decoded and explained the Canterbury Psalter “mushroom tree/ hanging/ sword” image with the trained, self-threatening Psalter reader.
The context of that Psalter image,
{left hand floating up} means impotence and instability of possibilism-thinking, and
{right hand fingers of God pointing downward} means “real foundation of control-power and viable stability in the intense mystic altered state”.
I really like the pattern/concept, that
as the mind is pulled up to god-mode thinking,
egoic thinking is separated and pulled down,
as if by Persephone’s threshing/winnowing to lift up the grain/fruit/flesh, and strip off and push down the husk/hull/straw.
At the gateway of the orb of the fixed stars, Saturn’s scythe
separates-downward the mind’s childhood-thinking (the “naive” part of possibilism-thinking; naive possibilism-thinking),
while pulling upward mainly eternalism-thinking (and along with that, qualified possibilism-thinking).
There is a stock answer, probably non-profound and unsatisfying, for the two fingers up — something like “The hand-gesture of profundity means the trinity.”
Or: “John the Prophet must decrease so Jesus the Savior may increase.”
Eh thanks for the superficial, sawdust, non-enlightening, non-edifying pat answer.
Finding the stock answer should be easy, and probably not worth the bother.
I wouldn’t trust the stock answer.
The Stock Pseudo-Explanation of {snake}
Everyone will tell you that “the snake is holy because of its shedding skin is like rebirth” — yet out of an infinite number of images of serpents in religious mythology art, zero of them show shedding skin.
No one but me & the ancients, thought to consider the nonbranching shape of the snake.
Around 2003, I think I announced that mytheme decoding at the Egodeath Yahoo Group;
{snake} = worldline; the non-branching block universe with one’s path of control-thoughts pre-existing.
Later Decoding of {rock} and {tree}
My decoding of {rock} and {tree} came later like 2011, iirc.
{rock} is harder to decode, given that no one is even perceiving it as an item to decode, unlike {snake}.
{tree} suffers from similar problem: trees are so common and familiar and everyday, it’s hard to really think of {tree} as a puzzle to decode.
Good Images Keep Panning Out During Decoding
Most of John Rush’s images feel like duds to me.
Rush’s text is frustrating: he says “note the mushroom in baby Jesus’ garment”, and Rush’s picture is busy and blurry and I’m like WHERE?! DUDE! you need arrows or circles! And non-blurry pics!
Rush really makes his case seem weaker, the more such “evidence” he hits us with. Is that the best you got?
But this picture from Rush’s collection for this book, was like Score!
The more I looked at this image, the more I thought “I need to crop and zoom that element. And that one. And that one…” I have 12 crop files for this one image!
Multiple Crop-and-Zoom is totally the way to go.
This image has that terrific properly like the Canterbury Psalter “mushroom tree/ hanging/ sword” image with the trained, self-threatening Psalter reader. — the more I analyze this picture, the more this picture pays out.
The entire Canterbury Psalter hanging-over-sword mushroom tree image, especially if you include the rest of the images by the same team, kept panning out. That entire image panned out during a full week of decoding/analysis.
Recently I added the remaining few mushroom trees but then I went BACK again to the Psalter to look now for — following a tip from Brinckmann’s (Wasson-censored) 1906 book — a new construct I discovered, vine-leaf trees, especially the “hybrid mushroom + vine-leaf tree” with the Devil tempting Jesus.
The Canterbury Psalter “mushroom tree/ hanging/ sword” image is still panning out, over a month later.

The Egodeath theory 
This is fantastic, all that you are identifying.
Is there any significance to the right hand of God in the Y burning bush with his 2nd and 3rd fingers pointing upward?
