Dear RK et al.,

>>Jesus said, "before Abraham, I AM". This is the Self, which we are
>
>>Jesus said, "I AM the way, the truth and the life."


>Only the firstborn of God can say this validly
>Not any one of us


What do you mean by "us", our egos?
>For, Jesus is the Lord of Space, the firstborn of elements
>Through Him alone, the Creator can be accessed,
>who is the abode of Bliss


Do you mean Jesus the man or what? Yogananda makes a distiction between
Jesus the man, and Christ consciousness, which is a spiritual state of mind,
the realization that "I and the Father are one" -- the higher Self -- beyond
duality.
>>the kingdom of heaven is in the I AM


>I AM is beyond all duality


Then why this talk about only coming to God thru Jesus, who occupies a
unique position as the firstborn? Isn't this multiplying entities
needlyessly? There is the ego world of duality, and the Self that is common
to us all. Jesus realized that, so he spoke directly from spirit, with the
voice of the undivided, eternal Self. Firstborn of God sounds like a
metaphor for the One becomeing Self-conscious. I don't understand where
you're coming from with these concepts of "us" (ego), God (Self), and then
this "Firstborn", who is Jesus.


With Love,

ken
