Now, the “I”

Sunday, 28 May 2023 at 03:21

I on Dr John Dunn. Now, the “I”

The continuous death of thought intensely asks the soul’s essence for resurrection, as a restoration of the life from which it continually springs, unknowingly. For this resurrection is already actualised in the human heart.

The saints of every region on Earth have born witness to it. Now, however, the time for conscious resurrection has arrived. The mental must not be avoided, but transformed. Now, the “I” that we each say we are cannot be the “I”, except in living thinking.

Lightning strike

Lightning on Dr John Dunn. Lightning strike

The destruction of nature must occur to overcome the animal-human limit to restore to Nature the connection with the lost principle.

Only then can we retrace the cosmic dimension of the fall into matter, insofar as it connects (within itself) to the inner cosmic Impulse, namely, to the principle from which Nature has become alienated.

Consciousness of the principle from which Nature is alienated enables the Logos flash of lightning to strike animal nature and render it human.

The lightning strike is the destructive act upon reflected nature, or ‘thought petrified’, i.e. that which appears to be ready-made and devoidof our own shaping content.

Until that strike, light remains solidified in the denying of itself. However, each disintegration of matter is a moment of ascension of the light, rendering the miraculous as an actuality, the beginning and the ascension - always.
