The Pope and Mary, sinners and Christ, the irrational will, and twin souls

***

When the Pope spoke words directly from God, those words were “Mary is holy.”

I write these words with neither pride nor shame. Every time I become proud I am humbled, every time I feel shame I am raised. Such is the equilibrium of the Self which does not accomplish.

Remember, Christ came to call sinners.

When the Son has grown to contain more than the Father, then the Christ is God.

I have offered my will to the Christ within me. Thus I am the Christ within me. For the Christ is what does not deny itself.

The Christ rises with the Mother.

When you walk into the light, your shadow is behind you. When you walk away, your shadow is in front. Either way, you cast a shadow. That is, until you are the Light.

The Will is irrational.

I have met twin souls who, I expect, will not attain union with each other in this life, as if their archetypal lineages are not yet ready for absolute wholeness.

You find out who you are, and then you give yourself away.

Christ is the Self which is eternal, thus surviving the apocalypse.
