' Was Jesus a Mystic '...

Every year I pose the question to Yahoo Questions and receive the same answers.. The question I ask is:" If Jesus was a Mystic, then why are not all Christians, Mystics?"... Most Christians answer that He was not a Mystic.. This is why Christians do not behave as Christians.. They have not understood the Teachings of Jesus concerning the Path of Liberation and Unity with God.. Therefore, they are content with reading stories from a book and singing once a week in a building.. The wall of ego has blinded them from the fact that Jesus was a man that conquered the illusion of the ego and became One with God..As He said;" I and the Father are One".. This wall of ego prevents Christians from Realizing that Jesus was teaching us that we must also walk the path that He did.. He gave us a clue when He said;" They who come after Me will do greater works than I".. you are the ones that He was speaking of.. How far will you travel into the Mind of Jesus and Understand Him and His Teachings?..........namaste, thomas Posted by thomas ... 3 comments: Kate said... I am a Christian. Before I answer your question, I have two for you? 1) How do you define mystic? and 2) How would a mystic define Salvation?

What is a Christ?.. It is someone that has conquered selfishness and Realised that they are Love.. A Mystic is someone that has surrendered the belief in separate egoic consciousness and Realised that they and God are One.. Salvation is the Realisation that You and God have never separated but only the belief that You are separate(ego) keeps You from Salvation........... namaste, thomas.............................................

It's almost disturbing to know that only very few people are "Christians" in the true sense and the billions have no clue whatsoever what Jesus meant when he talked about Life and Kingdom. Trapped in empty rituals, paralyzed by prejudices and believing fairy tales that everything will get better after death. That is a total travesty. Isn't it ironic that I, being an atheist disgusted with today's church practices, might be actually a more genuine "Christian" in the sense that I understand his simple, yet powerful message? Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear - drop your agendas, drop your learned habits, the only eternity is in the loving NOW. You will not taste death since you will live to the fullest.
