Be God, not Jesus
I know. The doctrine of the trinity, for christians, says there's a tripartite God (father, son, and holy spirit), but Jesus -as I understand him- is just a dead guy who was crucified. Who needs death and pain? Jesus said Don't call me good, Only God is good (implying he wasn't good/God.
So we shouldn't, in my view, consider each other as manifestations of Jesus, but rather God Himself. It's not THAT radical a concept, is it?
I just finished reading Adi Da's Knee of Listening. Good stuff. But he said "I am the only one who is", capital and underlined is. Which I disagree with totally.
Anyway,
I'm reading:
Dante's Cure, by Daniel Dorman, M.D.
Mockingjay, by Suzanne Collins (the third of the Hunger Games trilogy)
Alias Grace, by Margaret Atwood
Pen/O.Henry prize stories, 2011
