Sayings of Jesus #50--Gospel of Thomas.

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

50) Jesus said, "If they say to you, 'Where did you come from?',

say to them, 'We came from the light, the place where the light

came into being on its own accord and established [itself] and

became manifest through their image.' If they say to you, 'Is it

you?', say, 'We are its children, we are the elect of the Living

Father.' If they ask you, 'What is the sign of your father in

you?', say to them, 'It is movement and repose.'"

 

Purport:O'Clery.

It is movement and rest, movement of the body and repose of the

spirit. For we are as sparks of the fire in relation to the fire of

the Father. Also we are the beginning and the end together/alpha and

omega. The `Light' here could be also described as the Divine Energy

or Sakti Projection. Movement also resonates in the stirrings of

primal energy or Prakriti. The words `the place where the light came

into being on its own accord', is similar to the concept of Saguna

Brahman.......ONS...Tony.
