Hi ATL,
Doesn't it bother you a little to be possessed by this type
of "knowledge" and knowing? Did this knowledge you share with us about ancient customs come to you through your kundalini experiences, or by reading other people's words?
In consideration that "In the beginning was the word and the
word was with God." Are you not using the word to create the
impression you desire by what you have written about writing
and the use of symbols. Do we not use words to create that
which is cycle-reasoning and make it true because we want it
to be true, and therefore act as Gods. Are we not surrounded
by the very world we created with our words to form the
world each of us live in.
Do you trust writers? You appear to have a wonderful command
of words, and I assume because you are writing from the
Netherlands that you are creating these wonderful images in
a second language, and it simply makes me wonder what
wonders you might create with that language which is most
native to you.
As a masterful writer, probably in several languages, and
having seen the results of your talent sway people to your
point of thinking time and time again... Do you trust people
like you to creat the world you want to live in? Can you
trust the knowing they provide you with after having
witnessed how people have trusted you, because of your
talent for writing?
Are you prepared to swear that you "know" what you write and
create every time you take pen in hand or go clickety clack
on your keyboard? If other writers are anything like you
are, that is, simply another man playing God by wielding the
Word, how can they be trusted anymore than you trust your
own "knowledge"?
