Correspondence from a fellow traveler

 

Peace Cyd,

Hope a is well. Apologize for the late response, been busy lately.

Awesome reply! I fully agree that we should observe the similarities and parallels across text, architecture, and people (etc). Describing such as fractals of the same truths is an excellent description.

I also agree that such truths come from above and within. To my knowledge, I'm not seeking or trying to put an emphasis on historical lineages; if I do it's a wrong view of my own which I need released from.

 Titus 3:9 - "Stay away from those who have foolish arguments, who talk about useless family histories, or who make trouble and fight about what the Law of Moses teaches. These things are useless and will not help anyone."

The way I visualize such truths is that there is a core and that core is taught by a few to others who wouldn't of their own be able to recognize or engage that core without some kind of assistance. That inner core is always branching out.

 Even in the example of the hand fractal in the Dr. Strange movie, there is a core hand from which all other hands branch out from.

 

 

No different than how a Buddha instructs others to deeply penetrate the four noble truths and eight fold path, who otherwise wouldn't be able to engage such truths or path on their own without some kind of assistance.

 

 

No different than how Messiah taught his disciples what it means to be anointed and how to live in that anointing.

 

 

In other words, the manner of instructing and reminding people how to tune into that divine nature, that Messiah consciousness.

 

Matthew 6:22 - “The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore if your eye is single, your whole body will be full-of-light.”

 

2Peter 1:3-4 “His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and virtue. Through these things He has given us His precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, since you have escaped the corruption that evil desires have brought into the world.”

 

Philippians 2:5 - “Let this mind be in you, which also was in Messiah Yeshua,”

 

1Corinthians 2:16 - “who has known the mind of Adonai, that he will instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Messiah.

 

No different than when the Adiyogi (Dakshinamurty/Rudra/Shiva) instructed the seven wise men (Saptarishis) in the way to liberation. Ultimately, sending the seven men to other parts of the world to disperse the Dharma.

 

 

 

Shloka 8 - “Then Dhyanam: Let the Guru Dakshinamurthy, who has a white body due to application of holy ash, who wears the crescent moon on his head, who holds in his hands, Jnana mudra (symbol of wisdom), beaded chain, Veena and books, who wears all ornaments, who wears the elephant hide, who resembles the meditating Rama, who sits on the throne of explanation and who is being served by great sages protect us always.” (Dakshinamurty Upanishad)

 

Hopefully this info shines further light on where I'm coming from. I have yet to work through the 'Conscious Evolution' or 'A Simple Model of Memes' podcasts, once completed I'll do my best to reply back.

 

Sincerely, 

 

Brother "B"
