on July 24, 2013 ----------- In
this research - first completed 41 years ago -
I cannot update, how the central concept of "SIN" has to be radically
transmuted.
Sin is "Suende" in German, which derives from "sondern"=
to separate.
The actual "Suende" is "Denial", i.e. the separation between
Thinking and Feeling,
i.e. the lack of awareness - by ignoring, overriding, repressing -
of what I do not want in my life - a) feelings, b) needs, c) qualities, d)
greatness.
These denied parts of myself do not simply disappear ,
but survive in body and soul and all around me,
they even attract more of the same denials, become monstrous,
produce evil doing, perpetration, or evil suffering, victimhood.
The redemption from "Sin", i.e. from denial and "Lost Will"-
and from there the redemption from suffering and death,
begins with learning to feel, i.e. to accept, "to womb" what I feel,
to move it physically and then to understand...
In other words: I can allow myself to feel unpleasant feelings, needs, qualities,
only if I KNOW and PRACTISE - that every feeling, from the tiniest to the
biggest -
must be V I B R A T E D , i.e. physically breathed, sounded,
moved,
in order to heal and evolve, and then fulfill its task: to guide me and to
full-fill me.
Once there was a quantum-leap in evolution,
when humans understood that there was a connection between suffering and doing.
Since they knew from the beginning (unlike humankind today), that the many
and the one were tied together,
their "solution" then was, to uproot the one evil-doer from the
community, so as to spare it the consequences.
The next quantum-leap in evolution, was,
when it was understood that this "solution" caused even more suffering,
and they evolved the idea of "reproach and protest".
This, also, caused more damage than benefit.
The "solution" people then came up with, was not an evolution, but
a re-volution:
it was to deny the connection between doing and suffering altogether
and to ignore the mutual guarantorship between the one and the many.
As the present time-period shows, this was/is a horrendous denial,
yes the culmination of an absurd, monstrous illusion.
Now the time has come, to go down to the deepest roots of both:
the connection between doing/notdoing (=denial) and suffering,
and the connection between me, the individual, and everybody else .
