You got the metaphoric intent of the question. Excellent.
Whew <wipes forehead> Should I go for the next briefcase, or take my winnings and go home. ... tick tock ... tick tock
Now to feel the sea of light, that is everyone's calling.
LOL.
WOW PW. That thought should make anyone dizzy for a quite a while. I hope I can sleep after thinking it out.
AN INTELLECTUAL CHALLENGE . . . (LOL, someone start the timer?) I'll have to give it a try so I can catch some winks.
1) the Higher Divine experience is said by the Ancients to occur as [a sound.] This "sound of God" is the expression much maligned and mistranslated by religions into "
the Word of God" (because books were few and they had to be cross-translated.) My preference, by the way, would be "the Absoluteness," of God which preserves the complete [unknowingness] that such would represent; but my preferences are neither here, nor there.
2) "Sea" would an ambiguous term as it philosophically refers to either the Astral Plane, merely the next one up on the stairway to at least seven such levels; OR, the birthing place at the center of the Cosmos, something I will be speaking to very pointedly in my new book ?2012 | Drak?n.? Therefore, to ?feel the sea of light? would limit the experience to the Astral Plane, that common place everyone goes to when we pass-over, but more evidently where we go every night when we sleep (dream).
3) ?Light? is also going to be another ambiguous term as it too has a philosophical meaning in the spiritual sense. Light DOES NOT exist in the Highest realms that man strives for and where the Absoluteness/God is mostly distinguished from us. God is not a 'being.' God has no eyes. God needs no light. All similar references are clearly relative to Man, and as such, would be anthropomorphosizing. God needs no light as we commonly use the term.
The Divine, God, the Absoluteness is ?That,? or [Tat] as the Egyptians explained long ago. That is everything which would be beyond This, our physical Universe, EVEN with its many divisions of consciousness.
Since we would like to think of He as all encompassing, then embrace the concept of a singularity, a point (one of the mystic symbols). Now stretch the point [as expressions] not as an expression and we conceive of a line being represented (the next mystic symbol.) Appraise these polarities and we understand both ?duality? and expression (NOT reality) of the polar opposites as ?Dark? (where we reside) and ?Light? (a mere expression of lightness/less denseness, and where we DO NOT reside.) This expression (again, not a reality) is where the duality gets re-expressed by Christianity as ?Good vs. Evil.? In the Eastern philosophies, it is probably better conveyed as ?Energy vs. Matter.? Science now accepts this latter two states of Energy or Matter as scientific fact thanks to Einstein, and therefore proves the spiritual belief of reincarnation (since Einstein has convinced everyone that Energy converts to matter, and matter to Energy ? there is NO destruction.)
The East would go farther and refer to this line as ?consciousness? expressed in relative ways, with an impulse (a reference to the feminine or ?action? of the spiritual Trinity (Holy Ghost) always imbalance and leading towards ?the Light?.
The dark being representative of the physical is the mystical FOUR number (cube) opposite the THREE (Trinity represented as a triangle). Together they will always seek to join representing the mystical number SEVEN, one which scientists admit permeate the universal design, to their consternation.
THUS, ?Life? is the progress our consciousness makes as it progresses from the denser, darker matter of physical manifestation, ? to the lighter, less dense level of purer consciousness.
Collectively, This and That is Reality.
4) To ?feel? is a sensation, and therefore STILL representative of the ?other side,? the Astral Plane in technical terms; merely where we temporarily pass over before continuing our journey, and continued cycling to higher levels of consciousness development.
THEREFORE, the clever question forces us to thing, and should be answered that [we] (indicative of ALL things, not just humans) strive for the realization of ?oneness,? through the evolution of consciousness [perfection] such that we don?t feel distinguished from what the Divine has reflected, and ARE, therefore, one with him.
<wink> If I remember my Ancient Wisdom correctly.
Metaphysics will recognize this more in pieces, than as collectively as I have arranged.
SO, ?Now to feel the sea of light, that is everyone's calling? the proffered wisdom is absolutely correct. However, the way we understand it is INDIVIDUAL, and what has alienated religions and people for millennia. Just like this very FORUM speaks to, and has brilliantly stated even within this Thread; We are all the same even though we are entirely different. Understanding each other will, by necessity, BE AN EXPERIENCE, because we are physical world beings (for now.) Realizing our limitation as a mere matter of our present circumstance is what separates those who are aware and progressive, from those who operate purely form Ego (the ?Self.?)
Interesting closing thoughts to wrap our minds around as we leave for our slumber. I hope I haven?t given anyone nightmares. And I hope, seriously, that without requiring any one to change their beliefs, that there is a [reasoning] a rationale to true spiritual wisdom. Just by being aware we all get closer, at least, to the mid-point on the consciousness line, and are no longer at opposition to one another.
NO OFFENSE to those who do not subscribe to spiritual philisophical reasoning. I was just answering in kind to the question.
Dr. Christian von L?hr.
Ps. I'm also a spiritual minister, so I hope I was able to represent or consider most of your views. Religiosn all had a common source, REALLY, so I am speaking from that common base. Nowadays, the differences in belief systems are verital chaisms.
