| Among
the most sacred objects of the Jewish Religion there is without
doubt the candelabrum with seven arms, said Menorah. It was
built in pure gold by Moses according to the precise laws directly
transmitted by God on the Sinai (Exodus 25,31) and situated
inside the Temple in Jerusalem, in front of the room of the
Sancta Sanctorum that it contained the Ark of the Covenant.
They are many and many legends and gossips risen around the
Menorah, the most famous of which would see it buried in the
sediments of the Tevere river, in Rome. In fact when emperor
Tito's troops destroyed Jerusalem and the Temple in the 70 CE,
the Roman legionaries plundered the treasure of the Hebrews
and among these certainly also the sacred candelabrum, since
it is perfectly visible in the bas-reliefs of the Arc of Triumph
erected in the Imperial Forum from the same Tito. Nevertheless
nobody has found it anymore, probably the most logical hypothesis
is that has been plundered by the Goths that they ransacked
Rome in the 410 CE. Nevertheless the mystical meaning must not
be lost and it is to find today also effortless it, in copy,
so much in the synagogues how much in the Masonic temples. The
Menorah represents the divine spark, the light of the power
of God that illuminates the world and the universe: revelation
that is present in every human being, according to the Cabal,
and that it potentially makes the man a divine being. |

The meaning of these
words becomes clear if it approaches to the oriental conceptions
that affirm as along the acantha the seven expensive chakras known
by Hinduism and Buddhism: it is about in this case of centers of
energy, for the precision of invisible vortexes that are able to
transmit, according to physical-mathematical schemes, the energy
coming from the stars or that of the Earth's magnetic field inside
the organism. The Menorah, in this optics, it represents the attainment
of the apex of the energy since when all the chakras have magnetically
been loaded, then the man will be divine (a concept similar to the
illumination experimented by Siddharta). A message therefore of
hope, the Menorah represents an invitation to spiritually grow and
to "turn on" all of our energetic centers, so that to estrange more
and more us from the materiality and to experiment the union with
the divine one.
