Christ, Mary, Hermes, esotericism, the crucifixion, and a rose with thorns

***

I am the Christ in the dream of myself. I and the Father are one.

I am Christ, Mary, Hermes, Sophia, Apollo, Artemis, Dionysius, Aphrodite.

I am the light.

The universal self: us=I

As when trains going in opposite directions pass each other and one hundred kilometers per hour suddenly turns into two-hundred, because all things are relative.

According to esotericism, I was born on the day Christ was crucified, which may account for a dream I had as a young boy in which it became completely dark in the middle of the day, as in the day of the crucifixion.

A man will turn to everything but faith in order to get by, until he turns to faith.

By looking after myself I am looking after the world, because I am the world.

To give what I can give, and to take what I can take.

Consciousness creates all that is. If you are not conscious, you are merely drawing from that which already is- from someone else’s creation.

Revelation is nothing without integration.

I have thorns because I am a rose.

I am also a rock in the river.
