man begins to awaken , his grasp of things becomes expanded,
he learns to see thru much that was superstition and
considered magical, using his reason ,
instead of his fear...
but fear is a motivator too...and i see too
much of it written all over you ,
my good christian fundamentalist.
back in time , man learns to trust and develope intuition , and sciences and arts,
records his observations of birth, death, nature ,
the seasons of the world , and the seasons of human
interaction...he probes himself and peers deeper
his own nature . He discovers love , hate ,fear,
envy , jealousy ... concepts of justice and right and
wrong....and always trying to solve the greatest
riddle of death, and the onslaught
aging and decay.
why am i mortal he asks , that i feel so much like the
heavens, inside...my/our minds a vast luminous place.
but knowing in my heart everything must
eventually die , some reach out for 'God'
He sees the sky for the first time , and realizes it
is not just an inverted bowl which tiny lights
peer forth. He begins to understand more ,
the meaningful and inexorable change of the
seasons , and senses the rotations of the spheres,
and see's the heavens as a much larger
vaster space ....the world becomes more
than it once was....and all the creatures
great and small
that dwell in it .
It is luminous and vast , both without and within
as this man peers out into the world and the vastness
that is also within himself...philosophers sensed
this far back in ancient Greece , Persia , India,
and China...not just by your shores of galilea.
Gone are the old small definitions , the little
skirmishing spirits and gods...and they are
replaced by the truer light that shines from with
the sacred body temple where resides within a more
enlightened reasoning , and greater
compassionate heart, and a love for all
that he see's fresh and anew .
So it is man's fate to grow and discover in time
a wider , truer view of life and existence ...beyond
merely existing , and an overwhelming feeling
of intimacy with creation , that offers 'visions'
of beauty, and something eternal in all the
birth and death. something that is good , and lasting
and beautiful...
The Secular , the Religious , science , philosophy
and art ...are all sacred . He learns to live
and let live perhaps finally together.
You think that Jesus only found this ? And was the only one ?
Fine gregg ...that's just OK. It is your
sacred pile of stones and clay piled up and
it has meaning for you... but it does not
have meaning for everyone , nor should
you try to force it on others .
the truth is , this expansion of man's conciousness
and knowledge was discovered in many places , other than just your rabbai , the Essenne called jesus...it went on before, and is still going on after Mohammed (PBUH)
on into the future.
I could make it crisper , clearer and more intelligent
for you to understand , but don't feel i really have to .
good day McCritchie....continued good luck building
your sacred rockpile of belief...and narrow history.
