These are the generations of Noah We are those generations
A man righteous and wholehearted and in this way Noah walks with God
When the earth becomes corrupt and full of violence
When the body ages, begins breaking down, readies to dissolve
God says to Noah The Noah in us can hear the inner guidance
Make a wooden ark with compartments 300 long, 50 wide, 30 high
Each numeral is a power letter symbol: 300/Shin, 50/Nun, 30/Lamed
Create light at the top in your ark Let there be light; visualize this ark.
With an entrance on its side and with three decks levels of awareness
I’m bringing the flood. Except for you the breath of life is perishing
Which is what happens as we leave our physical bodies
But I’m establishing my covenant with you
And your companion and your children. Enter the ark
Noah is a name for our soul. The ark is our covenant with God
Take also into the ark every living being of all flesh, both male and female
To keep them alive. Take food for yourselves and for them
Entering the ark in these bodies, we bring all species of life
Noah does according to what God shows him Let us follow his example
In Noah’s 600th year the fountains of the great deep burst apart
The windows of heaven break open. Waters of the flood are on the earth
Rain falls forty days and forty nights 40/40, the power letter M, Mem repeated
The ark floats on the face of the waters that prevail, even 15 measures
Above the high mountains under heaven. Blotted out from earth
Is every living substance above ground. Only Noah and those with him remain
There are three decks in the ark, three types of faith. Standing on the top deck
Everything in the world disappears; pure consciousness alone remains
The waters prevail on earth 150 days. God remembers Noah and all the living
Noah is re-membered. All his parts come together; Noah awakens
A wind passes over the earth, the waters assuage. In the 7th month
The ark comes to rest on Mount Ararat. Tenth month mountaintops are seen
Noah sends out a raven and a dove who returns with a plucked olive leaf
God says to Noah, You and your family go forth from the ark
Bring every living creature. Be fruitful and multiply -- and replenish the earth
Noah builds an altar unto God and so may we
In all generations you may re-establish your covenant with me, says God
The sign of our covenant is my rainbow in the clouds
Whenever we see a rainbow, let us remember this and feel a sacred Presence
Noah’s story shows how to listen, act, and live forever
