HALO MANASH: r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA, LP + DVD
(Kaosthetik Konspiration)
HALO MANASH, redrobed and clothed in ash, has a completed a helical
cycle, r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA. Archaic sounds and visions from the heights and
depths, elemental ambience and primal thundering. Various instruments
such as horns, kanglings, bells, cymbals, drums, singing bowls, damaras,
rattles, chimes, bones, selfmade instruments, vocals, voices, and the
elemental sounds themselves give form to a work that is sometimes
serene, sometimes fierce and chaotic.
Everything is in pairs: thus r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA itself consists of two
distinct creations/destructions:
"IN 4 ELEMENTS" (DVD - VIDEO) was realized/received in 4 circulations of
the sun and consists of 4 parts.
"IN POLARDUAL" (LP) is the dark twin, and was received /realized in 2
circulations of the sun, consisting of two parts.
Full-colour gatefold LP lmt to 500 including a DVD + A2 POSTER.
PRICE: 20 € / $
SYMPHONIA SACROSANCTA PHASMATVM: PATH TO YIRAH, CD
(The Ajna Offensive)
32+ minutes of immersion.
Yirah is the spiritual state associated with the Sephira of geburah. In
contrast to the heart's initial, innate desire to give, deriving from
ahavah, yirah expresses one's deeply felt concern and fear lest one's
gift fall into the hands of an unworthy recipient who may actually
misuse it destructively.
Yirah evokes geburah, the might necessary to reject and even fight
against negative and destructive forces.
The two powers of ahavah and yirah are intended to complement one
another and act as a pair, as the two hands of the body in their common
effort to construct or as the two wings of a bird in their flight
upward. In a more general sense, yirah is understood to represent one's
sensitivity to the presence of another. Sensitivity gives rise to
consideration of the other's feelings and respect for him (as in the
idiom yirat hakavod). While ahavah motivates attraction and union, yirah
stands in awe from afar.
In relation to God, there are many levels of yirah: yirat haromemut (awe
in the presence of infinite Divine exaltedness), yirat hamalchut (awe in
the presence of Divine kingship), and yirat haonesh (fear of
punishment). This last level of yirah is not exclusively "pure" in its
motivation (for it does not picture God directly as the object of one's
yirah), but rather derives from the kelipat nogah (translucent shell) of
one's soul experience, involving a mixture of good (for it precludes
sinning) and evil (for it shadows one's consciousness with thoughts of
bad consequences). [Label Info]
