Christ, Manifestation of Love
Today people divide Christ into aspects such as “historical,” “cosmic,” “mystical” and so on. But Christ in his essence is one and indivisible.
There is only one Christ – the living Christ who is the manifestation of God, the manifestation of Love. Christ is God revealing Himself to the world. As a manifestation of God, Christ cannot be separated from Him, cannot be considered apart from Him.
And when I speak of Christ, I do not mean an abstract principle, but rather an actual incarnation of Love. Love is the greatest reality and not an abstraction. It has form, content and meaning. Christ – whatever conception people have of him as “historical,” as “cosmic,” as “mystical,” – gave to the earth the fullest expression of Love.
This is because as an historic personality, as a cosmic essence, and as a mystical experience, Christ is and remains the most perfect expression of Love. Indeed, no other man on earth before Christ had greater love than His. There is neither in the cosmos without, nor in the mystic depths of the soul within, a fuller expression of Love than that which we personify in Christ.
Therefore, how are the words “historical,” “cosmic,” and “mystical” to be understood?
Manifested on the earth at a certain historical moment as the ideal man, as an example of the real man, Christ is “historical.” And the times in which he lived record an bear witness to Him: “Behold, the man! Behold, the true man in whom Love, Wisdom, and Truth live, and who applies them.”
When he is experienced in the inward depths, he is “mystical,” and when he is comprehended and known as God manifested in the world, he is “cosmic.”
The physical side of Christ is all of humanity united in one body. All human souls in which Christ lives, united into one – this is the physical aspect of Christ. All angels, gathered into the heart of Christ, represent his spiritual aspect. And all divine beings, united in the mind of Christ, are his divine aspect.
This is the “cosmic” Christ, God manifested in the world.
Beinsa Douno, Christ, Manifestation of Love
I haven’t heard of him before… thank you. I found this quite wonderful… it brings out the human, as well as transcendent, qualities of the incarnation of Divine Love, and makes me think of how he called on us to follow him towards oneness with the Divine, and with one another.
It is nice to see you here, Sandra thank YOU for dropping by. Yes he is relatively obscure in the UK and America, I think, I discovered him through a Slavic friend – he is revered in the Balkan area and during his lifetime was acknowledged by other adeptsas being The Master of the age – I think you would find his final prophecy amazing:
