The Letter of Siluanús to his bio-son 1

Abolish every childish time of life, acquire for yourself strength of the Mind and the self (néphesh), and intensify the struggle against every folly of the passions of [sexual] love and un-Fathered1 wickedness, and the love of praise, and the fondness of contention, and tiresome jealousy and wrath, and anger and the desire of avarice. Guard your (pl.) camp and [guard your] weapons and spears. Equip yourself and all the soldiers, which are the Words [Yâ-hwéh Yâhuwshúa`], and the commanders, which are the counsels, and your Mind [~the spirit of Truth] as the guiding Principality.

My son, throw every thief [~removing His name (Songs 50:18, YirmYâ ́huw 23:30-32, ZkharYâ ́hu 5:3-4, Epheçíym 4:28, Howshë ́a' 7:1, Yâhuwchânâ ́n 10:1-10)] out of your gates [~portals]. Guard all your gates [~portals] with Torches, which are the Words [Yâ-hwéh Yâhuwshúa], and you will acquire through all these things a quiet life. But he who will not guard these Things will become like a city which is desolate, since it has been captured [Proverbs 25:28]. All kinds of wild beasts [~archons] have trampled upon it, for thoughts which are not good are [of] evil wild beasts. And your city will be filled with thieves, so you will not be able to acquire shâlówm (peace, reconciliation, completeness, well-being), but only all kinds of savage wild beasts [~archons]. The wicked one [~sâţâ ́n], who is a tyrant, is the lord over these. While directing this, he (the wicked one) is beneath the great mire. The entire city, which is your self (néphesh), will perish. Remove yourself from these things, oh wretched [~disfavored] self (néphesh)! Bring your Guide and your teacher: the Mind [~the spirit of Truth] is the Guide, and reasoning [~logic] is the teacher. They will bring you out of destruction and dangers.

Listen, my son, to my advice! Do not show your back to the enemies and flee, but rather, pursue them like a strong one. Be not an animal, with men pursuing you; but rather, be a man, with you pursuing the evil wild beasts [~archons], lest somehow, they might become victorious over you and trample upon you as upon a dead man, and you should perish due to their wickedness.

Oh wretched [~disfavored] man, what would you do if you fall into their hands? Protect yourself, lest you be delivered into the hands of your enemies! Entrust yourself to this pair of friends, reasoning [~logic] and the Mind [~the spirit of Truth], and no one will be victorious over you. May Yâ-hwéh dwell in your camp, may His spirit protect your gates [~portals], and may the Mind of the Pureness protect the walls [~defenses]. Let pure reason [~logic] become a torch in your mind, burning the wood/gallows-cross ('ëts) [~the burden of the flesh] which is the completeness of error. And if you do these things, oh my son, you will be victorious over all your enemies, and they will not be able to wage war against you, neither will they be able to resist, nor will they be capable to get in your way. For if you should find these, you would despise them as deniers of the Truth. They would speak to you, cajoling you and enticing (you), not because they are afraid of you, but because they are afraid of Those Who dwell within you, namely, the Guardians of the Pureness and the teaching [Yâ-hwéh Yâhuwshúa (Father and Son)].

My son, accept the educative chastisement and the teaching. Do not flee from the educative chastisement and the teaching, but when you are taught, accept (it) with joy. And if you are educatively chastised in any matter, do what is good. You will plait a crown of educated chastity by means of your guiding principality [the Mind (~the spirit of Truth)]. Put on the pure teaching [Yâ-hwéh Yâhuwshúa (Father and Son)] like a Robe (Garment). Make yourself noble-minded through good conduct. Obtain the austerity of good discipline. Choose for yourself like a wise judge. Do not go astray from my teaching, and do not acquire non-acknowledgment, lest you lead your people astray. Do not flee from the Power and the teaching [Yâ-hwéh Yâhuwshúa (Father and Son)] Which are within you, for He Who is teaching you loves you very much. For He shall bequeath to you a worthy austerity. Cast out the animal nature [~archons, fiery one] which is within you, and do not allow un-Fathered2 thought to enter you. For... you acknowledge The Way Which I teach. If it is good to rule over the few [~archons], as you see it, how much better would it be that you rule over everyone [~archons], since you are exalted above every congregation and every people, (are) prominent in every respect? Yet the reason is of the Power having become Sovereign over every power which kills the self (néphesh). My son, does anyone want to be a slave [~to archons]? Why, then, do you trouble yourself with wrongness?
