ASCENSION
“I think Dr.
Martin Luther King ascended from belief to knowing. I don't believe he was
content, and nor should any of us in being a believer the duration of our
lives. Abraham was not a believer. Jesus, Elijah, Moses, David. None of them
were believers. What that means I can draw out in symbols.
I can draw a triangle or a pyramid
to symbolize believers. The pyramid is the primal need to have a teacher, a
Master to look up to and learn from. The indwelling powers of the triangle are
well worth the passage. There is nothing wrong with the need or the pyramid.
What becomes wrong is the insistence that that state is the preferred state of
being. The circle with its inherent capacity to hold energies, mystery, and
revelations simplifies concepts and ideas exceeding the limits of a triangular
relationship. The shift from pyramid to the circle initially is terrifying, but
the fear is a necessary tool at the end of the initiations that led to this
type of liberation. Fear defines, and cripples, but fear is a mirror of our
intent, and a teacher of the soul. That leap from the apex of the believer’s
pyramid is an indescribable feeling into the Unknown and Knowing. Beyond that I
don’t know how to explain it.
