Lesson I
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1)
“When mind flies beyond words, when it dives below words, when it wings itself on strong pinions independent of words, it carries the molecules of bodies into light and living transfigurations.” (Esoteric Philosophy page 1:2)
The Word is Freedom brought forth by Divine Wisdom and Changeless Perfection. Our words, born of the earth, always carry the “DNA of duality” and bondage to matter. As our journey Homeward into Immortal Mind unfolds, we become as Christ Jesus, infusing The Word into our words in greater, deeper, and more expansive ways. Our tongue is an instrument and our words are symbols of consciousness. Mindfulness, surrender and the endless process of “looking toward” our Origin brings the power of anointing The Word into our words, revealing Genesis as us.
