The Key Revelation/Enlightenment in Mark's Gospel of Jesus Christ
The whole, wonderful, Western theology of God has been built upon a misconception of the Hebrew word for 'name,' shem. The name of a thing had to do with its nature. The nature of the thing was what they called it, and the word shem mean nature. Moses was not saying that God said, "This is my name forever," like Chuck or Stevie; God was saying, "This is my nature forever, and by this nature I shall be known," etc., etc. "Signs then to those who believe, they who adhere to us, in my nature, they shall cast out demons, and they will speak in new languages, and they will handle snakes, and if deadly poison they drink, it will not affect them" (Mark 16: 17-18; Victor Alexander translation from the ancient Aramaic, emphasis and alteration ['name' to 'nature'] mine).
We share the same nature of the Ineffable, because we, the consciousness of God within us, are Him imagining that He is us. The Ineffable is the original Buddha, and we all are the same Buddha--Jesus Christ.
