> "The Christian resolve to find the world evil and ugly has made the > world evil and ugly." -Edgar Allen Poe Compare and contrast to the newest proclamations from the TMO. It states that the problem with the world is that it is (from a vastu point of view) evil and ugly. The only real suggestion given for how to get beyond this and realize one's infinite nature is to rebuild the evil and ugly world physically. It's such a step backwards in the thinking of the TM movement that it shocks even me. -----Ironic that Lucifer likes a nice stuffy institution to hide out in. The story of Lucifer is not one of some evil angel, but
rather, of the intellect. The intellect is the thing which rivals God and was
thrown out of heaven. The intellect is the thing which is beautiful almost like
God but just not quite. The intellect tasted of the tree of knowledge and got
lost in endless perdition.
So also, those institutions which are based in the
intellect and not in direct cognition of the divine become the very definition
of dualism which is the root of the intellect. They create good and evil, having
lost the 'live and let live' of the divine itself.
Then once the intellect takes on the dualistic role of
God it does ipso facto rival the divine and becomes a Lucifer. Because actual
morality based upon directly improving conditions gets skewed by ideology and
soon becomes more a matter of preserving the ideological beauty of the argument,
as if it has reality and the reality doesn't.
Direct perception of Deity will always be hated by the
institution, and if not hated by the institution then it will become
institutionalized, and like the Xtian Church the saints will take their heavenly
place only after they have died and can no longer cause trouble.
Institutions feast upon the blood of the saints.
