THE WAR ON THE FLESH, DUBIOUS AND DERANGED!

THE WAR ON THE FLESH, PURITAN HANGOVER, DUBIOUS AND DERANGED

August 27, 2014
THE WAR ON THE FLESH… remnant of an erroneous ethic.
THE WAR ON DRUGS, THE PURITAN ETHIC
AND THE HIGHEST PER CAPITA JAIL RATE ON THE PLANET
I`ve re-written this article but can`t seem to find
the new and improved version, the coherent one…
The point I was trying to make is that there
is a dangerous hangover from the puritan mindset. Part
of that mindset is an UNCONSCIOUS TENDENCY to debase
all things of the flesh. And this judgemental disdain towards
the flesh has much to do with the uncaring destruction of
the physical world around us.
This unconscious hatred of the flesh is the motivating force
behind many of the idiotic judgements made by shallow Christian
elements.The puritan tradition is carried on thoughtlessly, a prejudice
repeated by rote.
Why is this important? This unconscious moralizing
WAR on the FLESH is the impetus behind a hateful disregard for
our physical environment.
If we pray to the spirit and despise the flesh, this
disdain ends up being applied to our environment, also.
I truly think this is a dangerous situation. I think
this unconscious prejudice might kill us all.
I shudder to think that a mind infused with this
unbalanced dualism – that such a mind might have access
to nuclear weapons – this is no joking matter!
In “THE LAND OF THE FREE” as we refer
to ourselves in Canada, we have the highest per capita
incarceration rate on this planet. And why is this?
It`s because of the high arrest rate caused by the “war
on drugs.”
All of North America has this honour.
We share this highest per capita jail rate with the United States.
WHAT MADNESS IS THIS?
THIS MADNESS DERIVES FROM THE PURITAN ETHIC.
In old time errant Christianity we used to “lift up the spirit” and “debase the flesh”. There are not two worlds: a higher world of the spirit and a lower world of the flesh.
Our magnificent Earth and the Universe we are born
into – it`s one Unity. Spirit cannot exist without the flesh. It`s
obvious: we are part of one fabric of being. It`s ridiculous to demean
one aspect of this fabric and sanctify another aspect.
The thinking goes, “Drugs are evil; they are part of the lesser world – the world of the flesh. And there is a mean-spirited and mostly
unconscious prejudice against the world of the flesh.
There is sickness in this dualistic thinking and the phony morality that derives from it: spirit vs flesh, God vs man.
Morality based on such phony distinctions is erroneous morality.

THE EARLIST GOSPELS - NOT IN THE BIBLE: : "HE WHO DRINKS THE BUBBLING SPRING OF WATERS FROM MY MOUTH, HE SHALL BE AS I AM, AND I SHALL BE HE, AND THE HIDDEN THINGS WILL BE REVEALED TO HIM.


and from the site below

 


THE EARLIEST GOSPELS: "AND HE SHALL BE AS I AM, AND I SHALL BE HE, AND THE HIDDEN THINGS WILL BE REVEALED TO HIM."





                  These are the words of Jesus, the Christ, the
holy or Anointed One.
          The  saying in the title of this article comes from the Gospel of Thomas, which many scholars  have concluded is the Source gospel of the gospels that appear in the Bible.
          The fact that Thomas is older is apparent
as soon as you  first read the gospel for yourself.
There is no finely honed narrative line about the
life of Jesus.
          Not much of a story at all, compared to
the Bible gospels. As Northrop Frye kept
repeating to our seminar group - "The narrative
form is a later literary form."

          In the Gospel of Thomas, Jesus speaks
most of his parables we come to know later in the 
Biblical gospels. But there is almost no
 story-telling narrative
          The narrative line that fills the later gospels,
Matthew, Mark. Luke and John,
 scarcely exists in the source gospels.
         What you have in Thomas is a series of
question and answer sessions, rather like the
sessions we read about in early zen books.
The monk, the seeker asks a question. The 
master makes an answer - but it is never
an intellectual answer.
           The teacher might give you a slap,
 hit you with a stick, or say something that sounds like nonsense at the time...But he's not about
to explain anything to you. He understands
very well that the "truth" can never be
explained: it must be Known ( not thought
about). It must be experienced.
          It is the same situation with Jesus Christ
and his disciples in the Gospel of Thomas.
For example, a disciple asks: "Master, 
where is the kingdom of heaven?"
          And the teacher answers, "If you go to the sky,
the birds will precede you. If you search for heaven 
in the sea, the fish will precede you... ...  
But the kingdom of heaven is within you.
 And the Kingdom  is spread out upon the earth, and men see it not."

          Quick and to the point. It is difficult to
misinterpret many of the statements made in the 
Gospel of Thomas.

           Of course, those  who insist on
pushing forward their own point of view can
misinterpret anything.
          

           The emphasis that the Empire Church
has put on the message of Christ is that Jesus
Christ is SO SPECIAL  none of us can be
like him.
           Well, it is said he was the son of God
and he came from a virgin birth, and he performed miracles, and there was a star in the East. The
same thing was said of Mithra and too many
other god-kings to mention...

             But why is it stressed that the Christ is
so 'special?' For this goes exactly against His
teaching.
              Why? Why did they re-create the attributes
of the Christ so as to make him unattainable in our minds,
unreachable as the basic goal of meditation.
               You can't REALIZE THE CHRIST within you...  If he is made to be  a water-walking, storm-calming,
from -the- dead- raising, demon-expelling heroic
action figure. Like GI Joe. 
               We all know these TV action figures do
impossible feats, which are fun to watch but which
we nevewr try to do ourselves.
                But G.I. Joe is a plastic doll.... a toy that
kids can play with at the kitchen table as mother is
making breakfast...I'm surprised they didn't make
their version of the Christ into a plastic hero doll...
... Oh, no! I forgot... they did!


              What happens if the Christ is made out
to be such a hero? Well... then he can be monopolized
and  sold as you  sell a product. Christ, as he
has come down to us,  He has been packaged,
shelved, and given a brand name -
he has been patented. And you'd better not infringe
the patent!
              
              You see the point?

               Now a certain smallish group of
people have been restricting access to this unique
big time hero doll that no one else can hope to emulate.
 because he is so unique, and also He is the Source of
Truth, which the whole world wishes
to partake of....and if he is so special, so
unique...  ...   ... well, people will pay anything
to get a piece of the action. 
          It becomes a mercenary situation.
          You wish to attain forgiveness. You
must pay for forgiveness... and I could go on
for a long time about the different ramifications
of all the wrongs that have been done.
            OK! OK!  But this kind of belly-aching doesn't
help much. What helps is if someone lays
down how it really works... what is the essence
of what this great healer emerging out of the Essene
community, the Teacher of Righteousness,
what is the essence of what he is saying?

             The essence is this: "When you
realize 'what it is', what I am.  this truth that I embody,
 when you come to Know me, you
will know yourself.  For what I am you shall be,
and the hidden things will be revealed
to you..."
             In other words, there will be nothing
hidden to you.
              
               Another way of putting it is: 

    "I AM AS CLOSE TO YOU AS YOUR VERY BREATH"

      This is the important point. This is the truth that
is told in the earliest gospels...

     'CLEAVE A PIECE OF WOOD, I AM THERE."

     "LIFT UP A STONE AND YOU WILL FIND ME THERE."


       The presence that says these words is not an
action figure.  And He doesn't exist in the past
either. He exists right here and now, and right
beside you - "As close to you as your very breath."

        It is important that in this country we get
these basic facts right... that we get the straight
goods.  We have been told a fairy tale for too
long.
          This is serious business!  This is life or
death... of a person and of a culture. Our person
and our culture.
           We rise or fall as a people in so far
as we attain this basic realization.

            "CLEAVE A PIECE OF WOOD, I AM THERE."

             When you go into the woods with your
close friends and you light a fire and you drink
some wine and you eat whatever mind-rocking
indigenous plants are available, and you look
into the fire....and you clear your mind... this
is the voice that is speaking out of the fire.
             The voice is here and now. God
is within you. Christ is your ultimate nature.
Come to this voice inside yourself... and you
will have found the Key to life eternal.

         
              


           The I AM existing in  

            I AM THAT I AM 

This is the voice that speaks within you.          

The  I AM in: 

            BEFORE ABRAHAM WAS, I AM.

This is the voice that speaks within you.
And if you listen very carefully, and if you
discard all your preconceptions, you will
Realize this voice... And the world will change
for you.

              When we touch the sacred nature
of the holy path of the real God, when we hear
His voice, when we taste him in the smoke
of the peace pipe of your circle, when
the sanctity of the One who is 
creating all things caresses you... you will not
need any other caress, for you realize
that all affection comes from the same Source...

             And I praise thee, O holy One, you
are the source of all our strength.You are
 all our love...I praise thee...
the God of Jacob, the God of Abraham, 
the One who rides the clouds, the One who speaks from
on high, the Lord of the Meeting Rivers, the
Lord of all the countries of the earth, like sands
of the seas, this is the ancient holiness that you
partake of. This is the holiness that is immaculate
and new.
          This is the gift I bring to you.

          "He was nailed to a tree and he became
the fruit of the Knowledge of the Father. The
fruit did not, however, cause destruction
because it was eaten, but to those who ate it,
it gave cause to become glad in the discovery.
and he discovered them in himself, and they
discovered him in themselves."
                                           The Gospel of Truth 
           
          There really was a Teacher of Righteousness
emerging out of the Essene community. The
Essene people were great healers, and this man in particular 
was a great teacher and healer. This
man was crucified  in 65 B.C.

           This is a true, historical figure.

           

           
             Taste the vision of the ancients,
the vision that is holiness, the vision
that manna gives to  wanderers in the desert.
              We are walking in the desert,
even now. For life without the Knowledge
of God is a desert, make no mistake.
               Without this Knowledge
We walk in the valley of death, alone.
We walk in the wilderness, far from our
home.
             Until Vision is awakened
within us... and when vision awakes
within us, we see we are in the holy city
and we have always been in the holy city.

                 
         When things become wrong,
evil, lost... this is when we are living in
ignorance. We have forgotten that the holy
altar  exists. And there are meanings to
be achieved within it, within the circle
of the holy tabernacle of God... 
          Meanings that have been with us
from the beginning.

            This is the Second Coming of Christ,


            "And he shall be as I am, and I shall be he,
an the hidden things will be revealed to him."
                                                      The Gospel of Thomas

            Christ Consciousness is now arising from the miraculous
discovery  at Nag Hammadi, Egypt, in 1945, one year before the
discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, but a far more important discovery
than that of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Two thousand years ( 2000 years)
after the so-called death of Christ, the return occurs.
             To my mind, this could never be an accident.


            "Whoever finds the explanation of these
words will not taste death"
                                           The Gospel of Thomas.

IT IS HAPPENING NOW! THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST...







                                                                                                   this is not an ad

         
        Most of the articles in the above noted book can be found in my various blogs.The problem is, I have about 20 blogs   so  it takes time to assemble and bring the various thoughts in this area to full coherence. This is what I have done in this e-book/kindle in which I have put  some of my best articles.
      The above book is a work in progress, however, and I'll be adding more to it. Presently there are four more  completed articles I intend to add. I'll funnel them through the Gnostic Gospels group, before I add them to the book cited above. (At least this was my original plan...)
           The major Gnostic
 (earliest Christian) Gospels
discovered at Nag Hammadi in 1945 are: 


"The Gospel of Thomas,
the Gospel of Phillip,
The Gospel of Mary,
The Gospel of Truth...."
and other fragments.
 
         Because most of the Gospel of Mary has been lost or destroyed, I like to include "The Thunder, Perfect Mind"...as well as the Gospel of Mary. As these are words, in this magnificent scripture/poem, that come from the female Godhead. I attribute these words to Mary.

   THE GNOSTIC GOSPELS GROUP on Facebook  (Walker Ballantine site) 
______________________________________________________________________________________
    


            I want to welcome new members to this group. I have been a bit lax
and I have not channelled all the recent work on the earliest Christian
gospels through this site.
The good news is I've done a lot on the Gnostic Gospels recently,
have written a lot of text on the subject on my blogger site,
Roving Reporter Rants, zappadat.blogspot.com. I also have a blogger
sites The Second Coming of Christ, Ancient Gospel Found Anew;
and also, The Whip And The Cross - a site that discusses the
major split between the spirit and the flesh in our culture.
I'll begin to channel these articles through this Gnostic Gospels
group. As you know, "Gnosis" is knowledge. The aim of the earliest
Christian/Gnostics was to pass through a Knowing or Realization
experience (a Christian enlightenment experience) in order
to know your your ultimate identity.
Referring to the seeker after light, once he Knows, Christ
says:
"And he shall be as I am, and I shall be he, and the hidden things will
be revealed to him."
This process referred to by the saviour in the Gospel of Thomas...
it is a very different process than the system that has come down
to us through the organized churches.
The Gnostics were mystics from the start and not always
very sociable... they were concerned with the path
back to the Father, the soul finding the highest aeon,
which was the soul's original home.

Their quest was the real deal. The Gnostic
Quest is in essence the Grail Quest.
             The search was for the Foundation Experience
in which man unites with God, a search costing
not less than everything.
It is a path of ego annihilation. But there is some
comfort to be had - the less ego you have, the more
you see.
              When you are nothing, you are one with
the All. This is a joyous way to be.
Like




                  The vision I was given while doing the Clifftop Writings was that - the discovery of these earliest Gospels, especially the source Gospel, the Gospel of Thomas - would cause such a dawn of the real Mind of Christ
among us that we will be able to actually say,
" He has come again".
           For the Consciousness that is Christ has
come again and it is enlivening the Spirit
throughout our lands.
            The fire that is the burning of Christ Consciousness is burning across the tree-top
synapses of the internet and the growth towards Realization is happening fast.
            I am talking about the Great Liberation,
the Foundation Experience. Yes, it is happening
just as the vision said it would happen. Various minds and various people are picking up the torch, and are becoming alight themselves.
            It is a beautiful sight to see and it is taking the responsibility from my shoulders.
We see the pink fingers of the dawn coming.
So fare forward, all you beautiful dreamers,
we travel beyond the horizon!

WHEN THE LAKE OF THE HEART BECOMES PURE, THE REFLECTION OF AN ORDINARY MAN BECOMES THE REFLECTION OF A SAINT

WHEN THE LAKE OF THE HEART BECOMES PURE, PRETERNATURAL REALITIES EMERGE

        The three words: primordial, primal and preternatural are all words I love. Because when you are taking a psychological expedition all the way up the Psyche into the Heart of Darkness, these are the sort of  words that must be used to express the realities you  find inside yourself.
        It is a process of reaching the arm all the way to the shoulder into the snake barrel of seething human existence, until you find what you're looking for or something screams.

        Space is not the final frontier, THE MIND IS THE FINAL FRONTIER!
         And since it's a long journey within, preparations must be made.
          That's what  "The School For Mystics" is all about - making preparations. The problem is no one ever seems to know what they're preparing for, so it's best to have all kinds of supplies.

           The quote above about "The lake of the heart" goes more like this:

         

         
              when the lake of an ordinary man's heart
               becomes pure and calm:
                it is the reflection of a saint
                 which appears within it."

              This saying alone could be enough to start an expedition
               into the heart-mind all the way up-river into the darkness
                of the soul.

               I don't know whom I'm quoting in the passage above written in italics,
but I'm getting the basic thought across.
               The expedition I'm talking about begins with what I like to call "sitting".
But it can be sitting anywhere, or lying down, or dreaming. It's best not to  get
too caught up in the method.
                 And it doesn't matter what medicines or fuels are necessary. There's
no point in getting too specific or judgmental about such things. We are talking about
a journey on the inner river into the core of the hidden continent.
                 We can relax, just as  we relax with friends on the edge of the forest,
when preparing for a camping trip.

                  This is a practical journey and there's no point in thinking about or even
considering other people's judgmental horseshit. We don't care what the name of God is.
God has many names, and it's a sacred matter.
                   It can be a hilarious moment, watching a group of people argue about the
name of the sacred. Sometimes it's best when the sacred has no name.
                   In fact, we are looking for realities at the core of the Mind. We already have
our  names, but perhaps we are looking for our Name.
                    This journey is never anything more than a discovering of the nature of Identity.
                     And when an identity, an ego state, discovers his/her own Identity,
this is when the voyage touches the eternal, the magic and mystery at the heart of things.

                     "The eye through which you see God is the same eye through which
                       God sees you." Meister Eckhart.
              
 

              

                       "The ant's a centaur in his dragon world."  (Famous poet who's name I've forgotten)



                       "Why did you come out into the desert - to see a man
                          speaking platitudes and wearing soft clothing?"         (The Gospel of Thomas)


                         " The dead traveled to Jerusalem, and when they did not
                             find what they sought, they came to speak to me."     (Basilides - early Christian
                                                                                                                                     teacher/master)







SPANKING FETISH. WHIPPINGS FOR PLEASURE AND SPIRITUAL CLEANSING!

SPANKING FETISH.WHIPPINGS FOR PLEASURE AND CLEANSING; KNEELING FOR ORGASMIC COMPLETION, KNEELING FOR HOLY COMMUNION - TWO FORMS OF FORGIVENESS



         I write a lot about spirituality, and I give what I call "The Empire Church" of 1800 years ago a hard time about all the lies they have told us. I'm still angry about all the lies. I can't believe that
people who were supposed to be guardians of the door to truth, that: "They did not enter, nor did they allow
anyone else to enter" the path to the holy citadel. (Gospel of Thomas)
          But the churches of all dominations (strange word) do a lot of good stuff these days.
         O.K. O.K. But I got to thinking the other night when I was on my knees, but not in what
we usually think of as a spiritual setting - I was thinking, "Hell, am I getting like those crazy
sermonizers who speak of holiness on Sunday morning, but need to be thrashed with a cane
like a cowering dog on Friday nights?"
          Well, I don't want to be that kind of hypocrite ( I'll probably be a different kind of
hypocrite). But I think it's important to express the whole picture now.

           I got spanked a lot as a boy; for example, when I was late for dinner.
And then after a while I got to like the spankings and felt a strange glow all through my body.
So I started showing up late for dinner on purpose.
           And the feel of that aroused warm, strange glow has never left me.
And so sexually speaking I'm a sadomasocist. I like to have my ass whipped before or during
sex. And I like to give the occasional caning myself. Nothing too serious. Notrhing that leaves
marks for more than a day. But it's an obsession and almost but not quite a sexual necessity
for me.
          There, I've said it. So now when I talk about mysticism or spirituality, you know I
really mean what I say.
           Also, I don't think there are two worlds - a higher one of the spirit and a lower one of
the flesh. From what I have come to know, there is only one fabric of being. One energy of one
universe, whether you want to call it sexual, or spiritual, or mystical. There are not two
different worlds; there is only one.

            It's how you focus your energy - too much up or too much down:
this can screw you up.
        
           Sometimes I think you guys already know everything I'm talking about, that I'm behind
the times and the Christian world has moved on, gotten more evolved. Then I just read the papers
or watch CNN, and I think, "Holy shit! People still believe that bogus nonsense?"
       
            Look, if the real world, the actual universe we inhabit were not enough - if the ground
of being was deficient in some way - I would not be giving anybody the bad news.
Honestly, I'm not cruel that way. I would leave everyone alone. If ignorance is bliss, be blissful.
And that would be fine and I would not interrupt.
           BUT... we are living in the midst of a miracle, every day wondrous things happen, and
I know it, and it's possible to prove much of it.
            There is no deficiency in this Cosmic Field we inhabit. Everything we touch is Spirit
and everything we touch is Flesh. And there are not two worlds; but only one.
             Now I've had a bit of a different life. I was born in northern Ontario, and raised
on the north coast of Jamaica. And I was very lucky.
              I was able to visit many of the world's shrines and sit still and absorb
the vibes in each place. I'm a good guitar player and that helped me get around, but
I also received financial gifts, so I don't expect or deserve any credit for what
I've done.
               When I was a very young man of twenty, I started to be bothered by questions.
I couldn't shake myself loose from them, or I would have.
              A basic question troubled me and I could not spit it out of my head. It was something
like, "Why is there beauty on one side of the coin, and ugliness on the other side of the same
coin.What is going on around here, what we are born into, as soon as we have eyes
don't we ask, "What was that?" if a bird flies over our infant's crib, or "What is this?"
looking at a tree or the eyes of a beautiful woman, and what eyes are not beautiful?
               At any rate I started fasting while attending University, and I'd take 
hallucinogens, and nothing helped.
                And I was a very serious young man at the time, and I must have been
a real drag to be with.... Oh God, I was so serious! And this question was stuck in
my craw!
                So I spent days and nights fasting, and focusing on, "What is this?
This hand, this leaf, this stone?"
               And then one night, focusing with all my strength on,"In the beginning was the Word",
 trying to comfort a girlfriend who couldn't stop crying, and who I didn't know how to comfort...
at the age of 23  I had the basic mystical realization, which is called fundamental.
                But since, in the West, we have no structure to comfort real seekers,
real men and women on the Quest for the Holy Grail, a few words must be said.
We have no path of initiation.We seem to focus totally on sports or politics or the
 obtaining of material goods, but we have no developed system of aid and
encouragement for those who have gone beyond the village gates,
and are seeking the bedrock experience.
                This experience is like an implosion in the mind; all earlier
mental structures are annihilated, decimated  into nothingness. It iscalled by many
 names the world over:   satori, kensho, samhadi, enlightenment, liberation, redemption -
realization - being raised from the dead. If it's an ultimate experience. There are
so many different paths, but only one absolute experience and experience of the
absolute.
                Thank God for the Zen Buddhists! Because in Christian terms,
there was nothing and no way to explain my experience - and without help
from our friends - I would have been totally screwed! I was already
psychologically messed up because I was not prepared for the basic
identity change that is involved. And I had no idea how to fit
into society, so I left and built  cabins deep in the bush.
And I guess I became something of a hermit.

                Things have gotten slightly better in the past 30 years, but we still
have no basic system of spiritual initiation in place. And if we don't develop one,
a temple at the heart of the marketplace... we won't have to worry about terrorists:
our culture and civilization will die because of our own lack of volition.


                 For years self flagellation has been a way for religious pilgrims to
purify themselves. Around 1000A.D., there were groups called the flagellants,
who would whip themselves and drag crosses right through your village even in
daylight. They thought the end of the world was coming, and they knew they
weren't ready to meet their maker in their present sinful state. So they
would kneel and whip themselves to be cleansed
                Kneeling before your love, because you feel guilt is a very similar
process. Sometimes  a little begging is necessary; or a whipping might be
 your due before in your own mind you deserve to be  loved and forgiven
and granted absolution. 

               Punishment is forgiveness.
            
                Kneeling before your love and getting your ass
caned as you perform sexual favors on her(him). Kneeling and whipping
yourself. to be cleansed before holy communion with the One who is
creating you.
                Don't ask me why submission is cleansing
to the human psyche, but it is.
               There's kneeling and there's kneeling. There's  kneeling for
spiritual forgiveness,  and there's  kneeling. for sexual
acceptance:
.

____________________________________________________________________________________

                             I'm happy to announce I have published a
book, entitled:

THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST, MOST ANCIENT
GOSPEL DISCOVERED ANEW

        The book is a compilation of some of these articles,
together with a new one.
         I hope you enjoy it.  You can find it
at amazon.com    at the "kindle store". It costs
$2.99.
         The alternative would have been to attempt
to get funds from ads run on the blogs.

           Any proceeds will be to keep me going
working on the Cliff-Top writings.
            The manuscript is over 200 pages long
and it's going to take all the nerve I posses
to keep at it.
            Funds from royalties will serve to keep
me a little bit comfortable. Any funds
above and beyond basic comfort needs
will go to  " BUILD A BELL ON A HILL."
            It's my dream to put a huge bell atop
the 150 foot cliff, and have it rung perhaps
 five times a month in order to popularize, 
make more people aware of the discovery
 of the new gospels.
            
(I'll be able to give tax receipts - to reduce your
payment of tax if you donate and you live in Canada,
through the Toronto Artistic Performance Society,
which is a registered charity; regarding tax receipts
for those of us in the U.S.A., I don't know how
to do it yet)

               
               
                It's just a sweet idea, Build A Bell On A Hill.
The hill is, of course, the cliff-top where
this book's writing took place.
                I don't have this well organized as yet.
You can always e-mail me at: zappadat@gmail.com
so we can figure out  together how to do this.

               I thank you for simply reading these articles.
I am touched, deeply moved, that each one of you
is joining me in this voyage.

                Without my blaming anyone in the past,
in the spirit of forgiveness, it is necessary
to create a New Christian Consciousness, by
melding the Gospels included in the Bible
with these earliest ancient Gospels which were
rejected and suppressed by the "Chamber of Commerce 
Bishops" at the Council of Nicea 325 A.D.
          The Consciousness that will be arising is
Christ Consciousness, and through us, our hearts
and dreams and meditative Minds, the Anointed One
will arise to Consciousness within us.
        I have absolutely no doubt about this.

                 

Re: The New Gospels: The Gospel of Thomas( the Source Gospel) is a must read.
But there are also: The Gospel of Philip and 
The Gospel of Mary  (all too short, so let's add 
The Thunder, Perfect Mind... a gorgeous poem 
written by the Female Hand of God)
                
Truly, I am so thankful.

          As I mentioned before, the poem written
on the cliff (at Temple's Gate), "The Song Of Truth"
is fourteen pages long.
          I'll eventually post the whole poem. But here
are a few verses I like this morning.

                                    

I have seen you walking
As if there's something that you Lack;
I have seen you walking
Up the block and back.

Where are you really going?
Do you really know?
Don't you know there is One?
There is one Man who knows.

He has seen you walking
With a murmur of delight;
He has seen your hidden loves
He knows the fear you fight.

Perhaps you haven't met Him,
But as far as that streetcar goes
He is standing on the corner
Watching the river flow.


There is nothing that is hidden,
From his hidden sight;
All those fruits that seemed forbidden
All those fruits that taste so ripe

He does not disdain them
All the fruits of life
He has given the Tree to be
Wherein the fruit has life.

He does not know the sin
The elders are familiar with,
But then again He makes the food
These others just serve the dish.

He asks that you eat well
He asks that you find bliss;
But He knows if you forget Him
There is much you will have missed.

And it is a shame to miss Him
As Life turns into death
For while the clock keeps ticking
He gives Eternal Breath.

Were He not liberating,
You could ignore His breath;
But it happens, as He is creating
He is in the midst of Rest.

Our life is a Forgetting
At least it often seems to be;
We always are forgetting
What causes us to be.


                                       (C)1980 by William G. Milne







I know the rhyme scheme is simplistic,
almost too much so...but it has something,
doesn't it!
