God Announces Plans To Shift Majority Of Resources Tied Up In Humanity Project To Birds, Rocks (theonion.com)

THE HEAVENS—Telling reporters it would be a more worthwhile enterprise in the long run, God, Our Lord And Heavenly Father, announced plans Monday to shift the majority of the resources tied up in His humanity project to birds and rocks. “I feel like I’ve kind of hit a wall with humanity and this is probably as far as it can go, but I have some exciting new ideas for rocks and birds that I’m really looking forward to exploring,” said The Creator of All Things, adding that He felt human beings had “pretty much run their course” at this point before explaining His intention to give promising rocks such as sandstone and gneiss the consideration they deserve and finally furnish birds with the longer beaks He previously did not have the opportunity to bring into being. “At this point, it makes more sense to devote my time and energy to developing a fourth classification of rock beyond igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary, or maybe a bird with big tentacles, because humanity really isn’t worth any further investment. It would simply be wasteful to dedicate additional effort to humans when rocks and birds have so much more promise.” God went on to say that His job was already immensely more satisfying now that He was working on what He was actually passionate about.

The Message of the Divine Iliad (Vol. 1) by Walter Russell

This is the first volume of a two-book set which sets forth the nature of universal law, the unity of all life, and how the nature of communion with our Source will make it possible to attain any desired goals. It is based on the premise that cosmic knowledge alone can make each person aware of the genius inherent within everyone. This volume contains six booklets and ten lectures.

Greetings Beloved Prospero Family:

Please be with me in spiritual heart as I celebrate Glo Runyan’s passing on Dec. 13th 2016. We had Chistmas dinner on Sat and she left us without pain or suffering by Tuesday. I was with her, as was her choice, and experienced the most sacred time of my life as her powerful Spirit left her 93 yr old body. To the end she was a loving mother who I will miss beyond words.

I will always remember her joy in loving you, her family of the Heart, and the good times we had in Santa Monica with all of you beautiful Souls.

Thank you for your LOVE.

Carrie Fisher on laying in the sun

(René Karl Wilhelm Johann Josef Maria Rilke (1875-1926). Painting by Maler)

Sacrifice

How my body blooms from every vein
more fragrantly, since you appeared to me;
look, I walk slimmer now and straighter,
and all you do is wait-:who are you then?

Look: I feel how I’m moving away,
how I’m shedding my old life, leaf by leaf.
Only your smile spreads like sheer stars
over you and, soon now, over me.

Whatever shines through my childhood years
still nameless and gleaming like water,
I will name after you at the altar,
which is blazing brightly from your hair
and braided gently with your breasts.

PHILOSOPHY – René Descartes


Rene Descartes is perhaps the world’s best known-philosopher, in large part because of his pithy statement, ‘I think therefore I am.’ He stands out as an example of what intellectual self-confidence can bring us.

Through word tracking, getting to the essence of the words we use to express our current view of reality, we are uncovering the one true reality.

You give your fealty where you get your security or protection.

Conclusions:

1)  Truth, anger-free, anxiety-free, gives fealty to Itself: all-knowing, all-possessing, invulnerable Infinite Mind.

2)  Truth is the only Father Mother, creating all governing all, one sound harmonious agreeable powerful knowing presence being all I Am.

3)  To come (see Comments).

Book: “Pistis Sophia” (recommended by Richard Branam)

Jesus appears to his disciples after the resurrection

Pistis Sophia (Greek: Πίστις Σοφία) is a Gnostic text discovered in 1773, possibly written between the 3rd and 4th centuries AD. The existing manuscript, which some scholars place in the late 4th century, relates one Gnostic group’s teachings of the transfigured Jesus to the assembled disciples (including his mother Mary, Mary Magdalene, and Martha). In this text, the risen Jesus had spent eleven years speaking with his disciples, teaching them only the lower mysteries. After eleven years, he receives his true garment and is able to reveal the higher mysteries revered by this group. The prized mysteries relate to complex cosmologies and knowledge necessary for the soul to reach the highest divine realms.

Much of the first two books of the manuscript are dedicated to outlining the myth of the fall and restoration of the figure known as Pistis Sophia, in particular giving detailed parallels between her prayers of repentance and particular Psalms and Odes of Solomon.

Although in many Gnostic texts and systems Sophia is a major female divinity, in Pistis Sophia she originates and dwells outside of the divine realm. Her fall and redemption parallel that found in versions of the Sophia myth such as that in the Apocryphon of John, but the actions all take place in the material aeons, and she can only be restored to her place in the thirteenth aeon, outside the Kingdom of Light.
