Philo-Sopho-Christos
There is no substitute for the direct confrontation or experience of The Infinite. Although it seems at first as though it were the end-of-things, this experience dawns or emerges as really the beginning, the beginning of reality or life-in-the-real.
Because nothing is created, nothing is destroyed.
The apparent drama of worldly being is against the backdrop of purity. The pairs of opposites, like purity and chaos, truth and falsity, light and dark, are always resolved in the positive aspect’s absolute nature: Purity, Truth, Light.
The elements of ourselves that are operating within the pairs always attempt to re-envision the absolute Good or positive as belonging to the conditioned or lesser class of positive.
All human endeavor is oriented to witnessing this Light. It is in fact the human mission to realize in the world of form the Absolute Formless. The journey of man, as it is for all created things, is from Light, into the darkness of relativity, from Spirit into matter, and the gradual, painstaking, return to Source.
For a time one must wander in the dark matter, alone. The realization dawns that one’s own self-will has benumbed the intuition and led one into misery. The misery inspires seeking. The seeking calls forth Mercy. Mercy causes Grace to lift one up and the True Light once dawned effortlessly cleanses and clarifies.
Never again can this world of ignorance and confusion present itself as really real. It is only made of Light, we know now.
