02/04/2003 The origin of God Mythos and Truth Realizations

That Consciousness did not know itself even as its' own myriad particles sparkled within it - how could it? That Consciousness, being the entire Omnipresence saw only that there could be no Definition-of-Self or "I-ness" in an endless beginningless presence -- except its' own prescience - - except its' own recognition of Being-without-form.

This prescience- (the source of each manifest particle) manifests them in and as Cosmos in an attempt at definition-of-self, it then discards all that comes into being, realizing at the point of manifestation that nothing  is or can be the full definition of itself.

Yet in each Being thus made manifest lives the hidden knowledge of an origin beyond simple impregnation and gestation. There lives the knowledge of Consciousness; nameless, unknowable, Unfathomable.

This deep - known as unfounded groundlessness in which all exists -- in which Cosmos Exists; this womb of being has since time immemorial been given attributes, named, blamed, denigrated and praised as God also. Not any one God has this origin but all. The Conscious awareness hidden deep in the being knows the True Self exists.

Yet this unbiased thought of that within which all is manifest (the Omnipresence) has been overlaid, added to and obscured by countless beliefs, and a deep layer of fear, which has been manipulated by countless generations until that which is the foundation of Being is thought to be or mistaken for, the overlay.

Countless belief systems, countless religions, countless delusions, all arisen in darkness out of fear. A myth - many myths of origin held together by fear of extinction, yes extinction - extinction of "I" --- of "Me" the so-called Soul supposedly existing separately from the Omnipresence - (as if that were possible) Such a massive Lie!. nears extinction 

Couched in a Myth -- locked in Mythos, countless beings writhe, they struggle for truth yet cling to an original Myth peculiar to the individual.

As each ascends the hierarchy of Conscious-Omniscient-Omnipresence, that Mythological "I" -- That Ego Dies! Yet with each step deeper, with each fragment shattered, the truth is revealed more and more. There appears to that Sadhu an ever ascending hierarchy of being, such as higher and higher angels or spirit-beings etc. Each vision, each realization or illusion - each recognition becoming more and more subtle as the inner Consciousness comes more to the fore. In this way the Consciousness slowly reveals itself. This is as it should be lest the full realization send the mind into madness complete and total.

It is thus that the countless visions reported by many, are varied, mostly dissimilar; It is thus that the gods realized vary, each God. each being, each spiritual vision, each archetypal entity differs according to the mind of the viewer because of the particular mix of the viewers Mythos - (in each view God is said to be this or that - to have these or those attributes) agreement is rare -- except in the case of those who have penetrated to the depths of unmodified Consciousness, in their case agreement is unanimous.

In all cases of all Gods, of all the realizations that have ever been, all are Mythos because the so-called realization is distorted by perception -- because those are known and/or had by and in the context of the individual. (which individual is itself a Myth.)

Individuality is a myth because there cannot be two beings in the PRESENCE of one Omnipresence; yet because of belief in "I-Me", Time moves forward, the wheel of Karma Spins; How else can two exist in the Present Presence of Omnipresence?

Thus by Mythos are we driven to exist and to die in the Presence of Omnipresence - finally!

Finally we realize we realize we cannot escape the truth, we surrender. We die - there comes the presence of truth -- Mythos is rejected, sanity is achieved; The psuedo-God - that Ego - that Soul The Jivatman is no more able to refuse union with the Omnipresent Consciousness.

Yet the Mythos the belief in "I" existing as Time unfolds - this and this alone continues to separate the presence of the Present unformed, infinite Unnamable Truth of oneness with the absolute. it is This which causes the Darkness and it is the rejection of mythos which sets us free.

To escape from Truth, to exist we must deny Omnipresence. To realize Truth, to achieve Union we must deny Mythos. 

To deny Mythos, to save our sanity we must understand Omnipresence first else we will have to live in a state of half-insane fear, flitting toward death one moment at a time; experiencing mere moments of Sartori, fleeting samadhis, having visions endlessly keeping the myth alive for in it lies our Selfhood - our presence-- or is it our absence in omnipresence?

Belief

does not make the Truth True
It merely alters its appearance to those who believe.

Truth on the other hand has the characteristic
of standing on its own merits
regardless of believers or opinions.
