Uniting Flesh and Spirit

"For it is not so much that we must seek to transcend existence, but that we must first descend into it. We are already above, the only thing left is to *Dive.



Thus we come down only so as to go up higher. We descend only so as to ascend. We fall only that we may learn how to eternally fly. For the only way to learn how to fly is to leap into the darkness below.



For it is only through this world that we may come to grow above it; what does not put down roots, shall never climb towards the sun. No seed grows toward the sky, without first germinating in the dark and perilous tribulations it will eventually no longer call "hell". For like seeds which first must leave the ~loving~ *Light, we suffer as we descend into the darkness- we struggle to blossom in the mire. Oh, there is no vision in the black soil; the seed buried beneath the cold earth shudders at the confinement as it begins to grow out of itself. It knows yet nothing of the sun, and even less of the heliotropic self ...it cannot help but naturally *Become.......................................



When the spirit fully descends into and inhabits the flesh, liberating the slumbering consciousness trapped in matter, that is when there is no longer a driver and a vehicle, but instead there is a *Dance. For the awakened flesh-consciousness, the voice of matter is now in concert with the spirit,and the two are operating as one whole, joined in wedlock, united and without distance, and separation has become *Togetherness."
