Blessed2 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) You, The Son, is God's extension. Only an exceedingly small portion of You, The Son, has 'fallen' into (or "bought") duality. That's the ego. Almost an infinitely small portion of God's extension confused of who He is. As the Son fell into duality, the universe was projected. 99.99999...% of The Son is has always been, and still is, entirely remembering of the shared being of Son and God. So the entire universe, the world, space-time, life, suffering, people and bodies, your life & every lifetime in this universe, all of this, is like 0.00000...1% of God's extension just being a bit confused of who He is. I find this to be quite aligned perspective to contemplate. Edited September 24, 2023 by Blessed2 Quote Mention There must be an effortless way.

Orb Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) nice share, it seems like what you're describing is more the devil/lucifer/satan/the accuser. The way i see it God represents the "Light" of Consciousness or presence. the Holy Spirit represents the Ungraspable emptiness or substance-less nature of consciousness. The Son represents surrender or better said, the absence of resistance. Holy (Whole, Wholeness, Divinity) Spirit (Breath, the Unseen, Breath cannot be seen but is felt) God (Guidance, Creation, Love, Presence, Perception) The Son ("Being a good son/daughter", listening, surrendering) These three in the trinity aren't separate so it's a perfect flow, there's no self in any of it which is mind blowing to me at least. Just wanted to share! I find it fun to take these old terms and see the non dual in them. Edited September 24, 2023 by Orb Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation.

Mandy Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 It's like saying that atoms make up so little of a thing, so very little of these hard physical objects is actually made of matter. That can really make people rethink what they assume and loosen up their worldview. But there isn't matter at all, there aren't atoms, nor are there separate percentages of a finite whole.

Orb Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) Keep in mind, back then knowledge was not easily accessible at all compared to nowadays, people needed short and simple "teachings" to remember. The holy trinity "In the name of thr Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit" could've been shared by many Christians as a way to remember the fundamental pointers to truth easily, back then there wasn't a completed Bible, just scattered writings. Essentially, it's remembering the father (Infinite intelligence, Creation, Beauty, Consciousness), the Son (remembering to surrender, put one's head down before the universe), and the holy spirit (Not grasping onto any-thing, basking in the innefability of God).

Somehow there's also more of the feeling that we're all in this little dualistic detour together. Quote Mention There must be an effortless way.

Yeah 👍 The Father-Son distinction is actually quite ingenious. The only thing that's really mentioned is that the Father creates the Son but not vice versa. In all aspects the Son is exactly the same as Father, and creates just like he does. Quote Mention There must be an effortless way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
