Radio City is the mechanism through which the whore of the north (babylon) exerts her control. It will fall. It derives all of its power from something that just is not willing or susceptible to be frightened into, 'giving it up' anymore. Note here that I believe babalon (victory, endurance, 'the right arm of the shekinah'-in my own terms - these are all terms which are also used to describe the sephirah Netzach) is a very different thing from 'babylon'. I am reading the zohar. In the commentary to the text commentator says this: 'Lilit (I would say instead: babylon) attempts to seduce Yesod. If she succeeds than she takes the place of shekinah (whom the zohar, or at least the commentator to the version of the zohar that I have, identifies with Malkuth pretty much) and she rules the world. That is IMHO what has happened in the last 2000 years (at least). Babylon has seduced Yesod, they have coupled, and now she has taken the place of the shekinah and *she*, the northern whore (the bahir says: all evil comes from the north and originates there) now rules ther world and sits where the shekinah should be sitting. Babalon (with the 'a' instead of the 'y') is something which I see as being much more related to Netzach than anything else. 'Victory', 'Endurance', etc. - these are all names by which Netzach is referred to. Look at some of Crowley's and Parson's stuff and then compare the stuff that is said to traditional kaballistic stuff about Netzach. Babalon is a manifestation of Netzach. She will defeat Babylon, who sits by treachery in a place where she does not belong. The shekinah is supposed to be 'the opening to the tent'. She is by right the opening to the higher sephiroh. Babylon sits in her place right now. This confuses everything - things are not right, the true opening to the tent cannot be found, the upper is disconnected from the lower and men see the higher sphere only so far as they can see anything real through the confusion of the whore, who sits where the shekinah should sit. They see everything only through an astral glamor so thick that it could choke them if they are not careful. This is a part of what revelations is about - the removal of the whore from the seat that it is not her right to sit in. Netzach/babalon aids in that. What'll happen to Radio City? I dunno. Perhaps it will go off on its own looking for other planets/whatever to fuck over and feed off of. So far as listening to its jumbled spew goes, it seems that many have chosen to listen and to follow. That's a bit sad IMHO, but each person is able to make their own choice once they realize that they are tuned in. I think that it is all garbage. Lisa
