There are two things I would like to share with you here for a beginning. The one is called 'Kostis Vision of the Mountain Trail' and the other is called 'Two Quotes from a Book Called Kostis Journey'.
1. 'Kostis Vision of the Mountain Trail'
Kosti is a young Prince who at the dawn of his aging was sent to find Wisdom. During his journey he so comes to meet Eshem and her two servants, Self-Love and Self-interest; But while he was about to get caught by her, he found Love for her enemy 'Wisdom'. Thus escaping her domain he came accross a hat and an old man lived in there. Falling asleep at this hat he had a vision:
The old man took him to a mountain where the Temple of Wisdom would be located. Making their way up the moutain they so after overcomming the one and the other hardship they so arraved at a plateau. A Temple was located there and many strange figures did many strange things.
- Some constantly walked around a statue that was to display Truth and desires whip them round about it. Their Self-pride and Desires whip them onward until they collapse.
- Some called 'World-Sages' have a measurement in their hands and measure everything according to their own oppinion - and therefore find many things to be too short or too long.
- Someone was sunk below his arms into mud, a critic, who "snores" at those who walk on straight ways and throws the "feces" of his Joke at those that pass him by.
- Someone else reads in a book and makes a miracle of it, although there is no sillable written in that book. It is composed of mirror-sheets, and so he is delighted as he sees himself in every page.
And so the Old Man talked of these beings, taking him away further up the mountains, overcomming further ideals, until standing there at the Mountaintop, to the feet of the Front Plaza of Wisdom and upon the crossing of a gate there was written:
'Here is the Place of Cleansing'.
Having received white Garments from the Priets that waited there they slept and were taken to a spleandour-full Garden the other day, and the insciption upon the Garden was:
'Here is the Place of Observation'.
After they had so been there for the whole time up until noon the next day, a choir of maidens came and accompanied them into the Sanctuary of Wisdom, and there stood the Headline:
'Here is the Place of Unification'.
The pearly gates opened before Kosti as he approached them, but as he entered everything collapsed and he found himself stuck in a dark vault. He is there being shown strange figures and introduced to forces that would accompany his quest for wisdom, be they fiendish or friendly, and is told at the end that this dark vault is the crust of wrongs wherein parts of the own self, Reason, the Heart or the own Will lay burried and are literally carried to their graves by the dead within. It is otherwise the atmosphere wherein he lives, wherein we live, and seeking for wisdom is to seek for the reviving of these corpses within the tomb of our self.
2. 'Two Quotes from a Book Called Kostis Journey'
The first one isn't quite actually from the book itself, but it is part of the book I have as quote of someone else. It says:
"Seek to become a living Organ of the Diety, by which it expresses its Love, Truth, Wisdom, Goodness, Righteousness and Order, and ye will praise yourselves lucky, and your Spirit, freed from blinding crafts and wrongs, will come to know the large purpose of its providence."
And the other one says:
"Who tries to suppress the Wrestling for Light, the Need to experience emotions, doesn't know the human Spirit and the Heart of man. - The Sage guides its Reason and leads his Heart; The fool seeks to suppress both.
Science and Arts will so never become harmful, as they have come forth within nature from the hand of the creator as means of shaping/education. The abuse lessens its worth, for as there man makes his interest to the purpose of science, his self to the purpose of arts, the order is being twisted around, the harmondy destorted."
Now, these are things that 'we' say go together. There cannot be Enlightenment or Salvation without a recognition of the Truth within each and everyone of us, or it will so ever only remain to be that but never consolidate into true Redemption.
Here so we differentiate singular terms like Salvation or Enlightenment from what is called 'Redemption', alias the way of consolidating the Truth within our World rather than projecting it as hope into the future. The "School" of the Art of doing so takes us through the many stages of Deception, which we so would never be able to persue if we hadn't the foundation within the Truth. The simple way is to just let go of these things and let the Lord God set your Sail. Let your Heart be guided by the Spirit to take you there from where you understand best yourself where to go.
