I. Francis of Verulam Reasoned thus with Himself
(The Great Instauration)
1785570
2934 = PROEM
22251 = FRANCIS OF VERULAM REASONED THUS WITH HIMSELF
14825 = AND JUDGED IT TO BE FOR THE INTEREST
17559 = OF THE PRESENT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS
24700 = THAT THEY SHOULD BE MADE ACQUAINTED WITH HIS THOUGHTS.
30848 = Being convinced that the human intellect makes its own difficulties,
35384 = not using the true helps which are at man’s disposal soberly and judiciously —
21016 = whence follows manifold ignorance of things,
21560 = and by reason of that ignorance mischiefs innumerable —
25049 = he thought all trial should be made, whether that commerce
20023 = between the mind of man and the nature of things,
21483 = which is more precious than anything on earth,
19236 = or at least than anything that is of the earth,
28671 = might by any means be restored to its perfect and original condition,
22523 = or if that may not be, yet reduced to a better condition
14550 = than that in which it now is.
25214 = Now that the errors which have hitherto prevailed,
35624 = and which will prevail for ever, should (if the mind be left to go its own way)
20693 = either by the natural force of the understanding
33396 = or by help of the aids and instruments of logic, one by one, correct themselves,
30992 = was a thing not to be hoped for, because the primary notions of things
31165 = which the mind readily and passively imbibes, stores up, and accumulates
26400 = (and it is from them that all the rest flow) are false, confused,
18335 = and overhastily abstracted from the facts;
35083 = nor are the secondary and subsequent notions less arbitrary and inconstant;
35081 = whence it follows that the entire fabric of human reason which we employ
29184 = in the inquisition of nature is badly put together and built up,
29130 = and like some magnificent structure without any foundation.
21501 = For while men are occupied in admiring and applauding
37177 = the false powers of the mind, they pass by and throw away those true powers,
31067 = which, if it be supplied with the proper aids and can itself be content
30285 = to wait upon nature instead of vainly affecting to overrule her,
9929 = are within its reach.
19401 = There was but one course left, therefore,—
22333 = to try the whole thing anew upon a better plan,
26413 = and to commence a total reconstruction of sciences, arts,
26729 = and all human knowledge, raised upon the proper foundations.
24511 = And this, though in the project and undertaking it may seem
19553 = a thing infinite and beyond all the powers of man,
30870 = yet when it comes to be dealt with it will be found sound and sober,
17918 = more so than what has been done hitherto.
14948 = For of this there is some issue;
25134 = whereas in what is now done in the matter of science
27771 = there is only a whirling round about, and perpetual agitation,
8551 = ending where it began.
31545 = And although he was well aware how solitary an enterprise it is,
20248 = and how hard a thing to win faith and credit for,
29934 = nevertheless he was resolved not to abandon either it or himself,
27095 = nor to be deterred from trying and entering upon that one path
16399 = which is alone open to the human mind.
29534 = For better it is to make a beginning of that which may lead to something,
37781 = than to engage in a perpetual struggle and pursuit in courses which have no exit.
21737 = And certainly the two ways of contemplation
30225 = are much like those two ways of action, so much celebrated, in this —
21261 = that the one, arduous and difficult in the beginning,
26856 = leads out at last into the open country, while the other,
24254 = seeming at first sight easy and free from obstruction,
18930 = leads to pathless and precipitous places.
23023 = Moreover, because he knew not how long it might be
22030 = before these things would occur to anyone else,
26663 = judging especially from this, that he has found no man hitherto
15274 = who has applied his mind to the like,
28201 = he resolved to publish at once so much as he has been able to complete.
24861 = The cause of which haste was not ambition for himself,
24195 = but solicitude for the work; that in case of his death
31689 = there might remain some outline and project of that which he had conceived,
26060 = and some evidence likewise of his honest mind and inclination
15453 = toward the benefit of the human race.
32965 = Certain it is that all other ambition whatsoever seemed poor in his eyes
19697 = compared with the work which he had in hand,
30660 = seeing that the matter at issue is either nothing or a thing so great
24414 = that it may well be content with its own merit,
17586 = without seeking other recompense.

19502 = untill the thousand yeeres were finished.
16608 = This is the first resurrection.
20:6
26313 = Blessed & holy is he that hath part in ye first resurrection:

17557 = And they went vp on the breadh¹ of the earth,

23231 = And I saw a great white throne, and him that sate on it,

¹Snorri Sturluson – Advice for Young Poets
But now one thing must be said to young skalds, to such as yearn to attain to the craft of poesy and to increase their store of figures with traditional metaphors; or to those who crave to acquire the faculty of discerning what is said in hidden phrase: let such an one, then, interpret this book to his instruction and pleasure. Yet one is not so to forget or discredit these traditions as to remove from poesy those ancient metaphors with which it has pleased Chief Skalds to be content; nor, on the other hand, ought Christian men to believe in heathen gods, nor in the truth of these tales otherwise than precisely as one may find here in the beginning of the book.

³Abomination of Desolation
Message posted to friends on 26 February 2014:
While in Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might “mean“.
I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097. This is the Cipher Sum of some three dozen names of persons, institutions, dates and events during the reference period, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.
I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.
An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.
