An Ignoranced God
Forgive me the term 'ignoranced'. It beats ignoranted. Our friend Marek asked a wonderful question about our being restored (per Neville Goddard), to being twenty-year-olds immediately after death (http://imagicworldview.blogspot.com/2016/06/neville-goddards-riddle-how-are-we.html). Fortunately, Marek included the text of the lectures which gave me the answer. It is after the extended period of lives in this state of death -- the forgetting that we are God -- that we graduate into the next form of existence, again in physical bodies on a terrestrial sphere, but no longer needing to die life after life. But for now, it is necessary for Christ, us, to taste death. It has been a long taste (I dare say millions of years), and people are graduating to the next realm. The question comes to mind, why taste death at all?
We are an odd lot. We were God's consciousness, and imagined being the living things on this earth. We made ourselves ignorant of being God to live lives in this state of forgetting. How was this progress, advancement? What do we learn in this death that we use in the next stage of evolution?
The question takes me back to Genesis 3. Remember, there was no one there except all of us, and we were spirit -- this is all psychological. Think of all of the people/entities in Genesis 3 as just your spirit/consciousness. (I suggest reviewing Neville's lecture Unless I Go Away.) Here is the problem: we were imagination. We were God, the action of the Ineffable's imagining. We were (and still are) Christ, the power and wisdom of God. The Father wanted us, I believe, to enter this death in order to become as He is. Nah, we imagined, we want to imagine everything You imagine. We won't be 'nuthin' like you if we forget being you!
The "serpent" (lit. Chaldee: the Glorious one) is an interesting puzzle. It is the picture or understanding of Christ being ignoranced in us. The power and wisdom that we were becomes entangled in this ignorance of amnesia as us. And this is what the Father wants: the forgetting. Why?
"Because God knows that in the age you eat from it, your eyes will be opened and you will become like God, knowing the good and the evil" (Genesis 3: 5; Alexander, 'Gods' made singular by me).
"You will become like God." By ignorance? Really? Yes! The one thing that locked us up as God, the action of the Ineffable's imagining was that we had to do it. There was no independence. As he imagined, we bent. As he desired, we desired, all of us together. We were quite willingly regimented -- we loved it! But us ignoranced said, the desires could be yours. What do you desire? Desiring on your own won't kill you; you will just become like God -- imagining on your own. THAT was the one thing we could never do without ignorancing ourselves and forgetting absolutely that we were God. And by doing it, we became more like God than we had ever been before! Stupid, but independent in desiring and manifesting our own worlds, potters' wheels within the Potter's wheel.
So we taste the death of forgetting to acquire the independence of desiring on our own. We couldn't become free without it, and the Father knew so. This isn't the independence that comes with division, for God (which includes us) is one. It is independence of desire, but it shall still be within the character of the Ineffable as we accrue Its character from here on out. A bunch of Him. O boy, this is going to be fun.
Thanks again for the question, Marek.
