Shalom, in the essences of what we are , we are set upon the face of the Earth to be "Man" ...to be caught up from the moment birth and all that follows in a net of increasing illusions and desires , instincts and behaviors, learned identities and beliefs.
It was ever meant for Man to discover finally the ways to become liberated from the base desires , and flow towards self-liberation , enlightenment. Not all choose to really take up the path , heed the call , in this lifetime, each caught up in their own web and snare of illusion... but all are drawn.
...and there have been many many Great Souls that turned the corner , and peeked past the veil that seperated us from the hidden treasures deep in our hearts ...and the blue skies above. I am glad that you have found one.
But though they were many , they all taught and continue to teach:
....that you yourself are a divine soul...deathless and eternal.
Always from the earliest reaches of human history, there has lived a kindled light that has drawn us.
It is the legacy of becoming a sentient being....able to laugh and cry, to become self aware and be struck dumb with awe towards life and a sense of the miraculous.
It happened in many lands , but especially in the East....which was the eldest. Long .... long....long before the myth of Moses was born .
The discovery and "revelation" of the ten-commandments and the prescence of God was done in men's hearts , also long, long , long, before the birth of the tribe of Israel...when they lived as roaming wandering tribes south of Egypt .
The Eccleisates of Truth, is far older than you or anyone can imagine. Far older than the pyramids. (of that you can be sure)
It is fortunate that there were a few of these enlightened beings that chose to share their wisdom...
Namaste,
;-)
