Why You Are Important, Special

I am about to give you the key to the Door of Heaven...

In the Vedic traditions, the stealer of fire from the Gods is Paramathisvan, and in the Ancient Greek accounts, it is Prometheus.

Although there are successive narratives about the bad consequences of this act, there is another tradition attributable to Plato, that this Titan (who never fought against the Olympians in the Titanomachy), felt sorry for the humans, since they had been given no natural gifts and were 'naked' in the world - and so his act which was albeit a thing done surreptitiously, can hardly have been regarded entirely by those particular Gods who themselves 'tilted the scales' in favor of certain humans they preferred, although not all by any means -, as evil.

As I was walking away from this place,
a night ago, I saw a father and his quite
young daughter (11/12), walking up to the 
showroom window.
I could surmise what was in their minds
from the looks on their faces.


 

Additionally, Plato even makes Prometheus literally the designer of Mankind, although he calls him 'Ithax' in this context.

But here when we look at the idea of a Titan God actually designing humans, it begs the question well but does that mean humans are different to other intelligent beings, such as, say, the Gods themselves?

Well it does because although they are visually similar (yes they are because Helen was regarded as the actual human counterpart and copy of Aphrodite), they do not last and have blood, not ichor, which is the fluid within the bodies of the Gods.

Humans are not completely visually dissimilar then, to the Gods.

They can be far less similar, during certain phases in human history, since they are able to become 'generic' and not individual.

The sub-text of both what Plato says, and what Jesus also says, is that humans are able to overcome their normally degenerating state, by - in the case of Prometheus' solution - using the Divine Fire; and in the case of Jesus somehow finding something to do with 'water and the Spirit.'

I'm not sure whether Jesus means it is possible to douse the over-active dynamic Fire of the Gods with ordinary plain water, or whether He is trying to suggest something else entirely - but I do think He is using the Divine Fire and the Spirit interchangeably. Dr Ammon points out to us in any case, that 'water' is not the word being used in the original texts - it is more like 'moisture...'

You did not steal the Fire. You just have it now.

And the Father of the Gods and Men did not take it back away from you.

In fact, it is the only way you can enter into the company of the Gods and be accepted by them, if warily.

This 'Fire' is attested in all of the Ancient Narratives as being the source of Creativity.

Plato gives a variation of this in his Symposium, where humans are said, by one of the speakers - if they love - to be the grandchildren of Poverty and Plenty and have only the great inventiveness of their father, with which to make their way through the Maze of Love to the Divine Rewards.

When you seek to do good, and use your power - that is, Divine Creativity - to achieve your goals, then if you offer these acts to the Council of the Gods, they will be accepted and your presence near them will be entertained by them.

But you have to be diplomatic, of course, and not just go crashing into some elevated place throwing your weight around and saying impolite things and being disrespectful... He he he he he.

You know what I mean. 

Poor, alone, naked in the world, you cannot attain that Barbie Pink McLaren sports car for that little girl and her father.

...Oh but yes you can though.

You possess such a power.

And you must be careful because human people getting things is not always necessarily so good for them, but for kids it always is. Because they do not look at acquisitions the same way that adults do.

The Kingdom of Heaven is of as such as these (the children; the child's mind).

Zelensky is not a child - which is why his behavior is not appropriate.

What might be understandable from a child, although not necessarily 'appropriate' either, is not understandable from a rational adult person.

But I digress.

Back to the point is that you have the key.
