In other words Jesus the man, Christ the non-persona or Gautama by name and Buddha as non-persona. And the many masks that make up a person or personality is a whole Legion. Yes, his name is legion for we are many. His army! The composite of masks that make up a person. Of the two one is the flame, the son\/sun, the other the moon, the first is spirit, the other feeling and mental-ity or tempter. Which is the dual nature, male and female whereby the intellect must become master to sit on the right side of the throne and he is of course the snake or kundalini curled up along the branches of the tree. And just as the moon is but a reflection losing its wholeness effecting it too, as part of the sunlight is absorbed and only part is reflected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of you think that by simply reading the articles\nyou can say \u201cnow I know\u201d, but why is it then that your actions and reactions\ndon\u2019t show it? It should have been clear that you are ruled for a great deal by\nyour subconscious, and while it feeds you thoughts, it also takes most of your\nawareness, and your habit machine takes care of the rest, yes, your subconscious\noften feeds you those conditioned thoughts and feelings with which you are then\noccupied and in the meantime subconscious gets more or less free hand. Yes,\ngood for walking and other tasks, but less so in other ways, as your emotional\npatterns are patterns of habit too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve explained the different stages of alpha, beta\nwaves etc. in a previous article, and that a child up to 7 years is in a kind\nof hypnotic state. I say this because in a person under hypnosis it bypasses\nits awareness and speaks directly to the subconscious, in this state a child is\nlike a sponge, conditioning learning conditioning! &nbsp;So why do I mention this? Two reasons, first,\nany kind of thing you wish to do well needs practice before it flows, be it\nmusic, driving or any of the qualities you wish to learn like language, math or\nsimply staying alert. &nbsp;You went to school\nand learned by repeating, both by reading and practice. Here it is the same, without\nit you could just as well leave the articles on the bookshelf&nbsp; to collect dust. Second, I told you that you\nshould read it in 3 ways, in stillness of mind, like a copy machine that\ndoesn\u2019t ask, doesn\u2019t try to understand or think, it just copies to the\nsubconscious. Then you read it as a matter of fact, even if you have these\nquestions that want to come up, ignore them by accepting it as matter of fact.\nThen read it with intent to comprehend. &nbsp;And\nany question that arises should be written down in a notebook and dated. And\nafter having done these 3 seven times you take your notebook and look at the\nquestions again, also be honest to yourself, have you been able to do the\npractice as intended? Consider the expression &#8220;self-control&#8221; which implies\nthat there is one that controls and another subject to control, or \u201cat war with\nmyself\u201d. For this I\u2019ll go back to Plato\u2019s cave again and the story of the sun\nand moon. While the Sun is outside the cave, the flame inside the cave can be\nconsidered the Son. The puppets are the emotional, physical and mental conditioning\nthat receive their living light from the flame that shines through them and\ncondition the seeing and hearing to the puppets liking, its name is ego or\nlegion.&nbsp; Much like the sunlight that\nlights up the night through reflection of the moon. No matter how much you get\nfrom it, it can never outshine the son\/sun. In other words it can only show a\ntiny part of the suns spectrum. This is like trying to understand the world of\nmatter as first cause while its foundation lies in spirit. Remember those\nsingle cells having receptors or senses like we have? They don\u2019t perceive the\nworld as is, they are not openings through which we make contact with the world\nof matter, they are more like switches that transform light into an electrical\nsignal. \u201cKnow thyself\u201d is the only way we are the sum of creation, both the\nlight and the blueprint is us and within us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole of Creation is a fractal hologram scattered in many pieces. Even the smallest of fragment, although varying in complexity, has the same principles. Like a single cell who\u2019s receptors are able to pick up a smaller frequency band and more cells pick up more. It was the One I AM that I AM, that we could call the mind of god, that created this 2D holographic blueprint from which the 3D came into being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be aware that only the flame is the light of truth and perishes not, ego on the other hand is both the killer and the killed, take not lightly the task at hand!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2530\" width=\"283\" height=\"355\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did1.jpg 481w, https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did1-239x300.jpg 239w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><figcaption> <em>Gustave Dor\u00e9 1832 \u2013 1883,<br> The Temptation by the Devil, engraving \u2014 1865<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It is often in ancient texts that we see the master talking to someone other than his true self, like Jesus in the desert when he was tempted. Now this is easily mistaken for another person, while it was his lower self\/persona he referred to. In other religious manuscripts it describes a war and a legion they are up against. Remember here also whose name is legion. &nbsp;So remember there is no other entity which is the tempter, evil personified as separate from the little I. The gaining of liberation they speak about is the full separation of real self from the lower self or I.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did2-1024x516.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2531\" width=\"550\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did2-1024x516.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did2-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did2-768x387.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/did2.jpg 1158w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Our five senses and body contribute to the upholding\nof this little I, therefore even after this liberation the body with its own\nwill remains and is by no means then freed of its deteriorating problems. As\nall that is born is subject to death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore as long as the spirit and the body are co-existing\nthis war continues between the little I and true self,&nbsp; physical suffering, desires etc. This\nco-existence cannot, nor should be removed except at the final separation of\nbody and spirit at the physical death of the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps you will realize in this that when it was said\nthat they should not have idols, statues of the gods etc. That the car is not\nthe driver, that Christ is spirit and Jesus the man. All those images and\nstatues of Mary, Jesus, Buddha and so many more, they are Maya, the false gods.\nWe have fooled ourselves, thinking in forms that which is spirit, looked for it\nin feelings that which is spirit, while all we can grasp is worldly matter shone\nupon by moonlight. They are quick to point out evil in another person, but it\u2019s\nnot another person but persona itself that is legion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Realize this that all senses, the body, thoughts and\nfeelings are Maya, the illusion! Seeking through them does not liberate nor does\nit bring true wisdom, but what does is knowing the self and Self, the little I and\nthe one between spirit and man, not because one has read or studied it but\nthrough experience has made the first steps on the path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps it might also become clear when in Buddhism\nthe lotus flower grows from the mud on the bottom of the pond. The body and all\nof Maya is like this mud, it will never be the lotus flower yet came through it.\nFrom clay he was made and to clay he shall return but its light will rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But pride, desire, fear etc. will weigh it down. Let\nnone of these drive the vehicle, but look after it for the sake of the journey\nit must undertake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>20-09-2019<br>Moshiya van den Broek<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In just about every religion from Christianity to Buddhism the embodiment of evil is represented as a person and as you know personality comes from the word persona meaning masks, therefore any person who identifies his or herself with the body, feelings and thoughts that arise is ego, Satan or Mara in Buddhism, or really [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":296,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2532","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2532"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2532\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2535,"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2532\/revisions\/2535"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/296"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.truth-revelations.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
