Guest guest Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Namaste, 21) Mary said to Jesus, "Whom are Your disciples like?" He said, "They are like children who have settled in a field which is not theirs. When the owners of the field come, they will say, 'Let us have back our field.' They (will) undress in their presence in order to let them have back their field and give it back to them. Therefore I say to you, if the owner of a house knows that the thief is coming, he will begin his vigil before he comes and will not let him into his house of his domain to carry away his goods. You, then, be on your guard against the world. Arm yourselves with great strength lest the robbers find a way to come to you, for the difficulty which you expect will (surely) materialize. Let there be among you a man of understanding. When the grain ripened, he came quickly with his sickle in his hand and reaped it. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear." Purport: O'Clery. This is about children or being like children in innocence, but having to watch for temptation all the time. We have to watch out for our tendencies and faults, so they don't control us. Also we are not of the body, it is not ours. Do not waste the time or life given to you to Realise yourselves. The undressing is more obtuse and could mean the dress of the body, giving up the body for realization or attachment to same. Death is the dress of life. Difficulty materializing has to do with attracting negative vibrations, for they surely are our own tendencies..............ONS..Tony.

Paying attention to such things already means that these are controlling us. Perhaps the "original sin" notion demands that we feel guilty about Adam and Eve eating the apple and then putting clothes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not trying to teach anything only try and interpret the sayings. You are right of course. But who are you that you feel the impulse to reply and comment? Is that not the ego that does that? You don't believe the Adam and Eve allegory do you? ..............ONS..Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of us would be here if it was not for Adam and Eve sharing a red delicious apple. The reason we are born is because our parents had sex (hard as it is to imagine them doing it). $$$$$$$$ - Make love not war bro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
