Lost in Translation

We find ourselves lost between the words interpreted by others. Sometime this mishap is use to control us, other times its due to ignorance. Centuries ago man tried to interpret scripture for many reasons; to find deeper purpose of life or curiosity of the findings of a new text.  In doing so, there was a sense of true commitment to the essential self of what Christ was speaking of, that was lost. Jesus's sole purpose is to get us back to our original state. And he understood, in order to do this, we have to reprogram our minds(repent). Somehow it became to be more about how well you spoke the language of a Christian; how holy one could be, not for the creator, but to be validated by others. It became ego base. And then that shift the importance from a spiritual journey and the reconnection to the creator, to ones ideology and dogma, creating a dual sense of the creator. This system open the door for mediation between you and god.

    These set of principles and ideas shaped western civilization.  During the reformation period religion became one of the pillars of our society. We as people quench for hope and thrive on a greater tomorrow when in a life of disparity. This human trait led to exploitation. 

      It's easy to prey on the weak in spirit. This became the norm, even though this concept was an old strategy used long ago, but it was affective. Through manipulation, we dug our on ditches, throw ourselves in it a d right before we bury ourselves, we ask the question, " how did I get here or why they pushed me in."

    The ditch become our normal. We stop making efforts to get out the hole. It becomes our new home, our way of living. We shop there, we get educated there- and that's on the good end of the ditch, others drop out, we build careers while others remain in poverty. The ditch has become our new reality. The true essence of you are lost in translation. 

   Before your conception you were once in what some call paradise but whatever name we put on it, there was a connection to the creator that words can't explain or describe, at least not mine.  In this union you didn't experience needs or wants. Those words didn't even exist. You were " more than a conquer". See conquers once had opposition. To be more than a conquer, we could never know the true meaning of this in a physical state. One would have to "repent". 

    The thing of being lost in translation, we took some of the meaning of the words of the bible and put an english meaning to it. For instance, repent, in Greek, this mean simply, to change your mind or way of thinking. We have took this and put an English spin on it and revise the meaning to say, to be forgiven of sins. This is a problem. 

   The problem with this, is you spend most of your life, if not all, on trying to stop doing something that you have been conditioned to do. This cause frustration and a resentment to the creator because you can't see change. You think the change should be in the creator, but it must be your thinking. 

    Our conformed way of thinking isn't compatible to the creator. There are too many limitations and boundaries in this state. Then on top of that we have to deal with an ego. THE EGO AND GOD DON'T GET ALONE. 

   The ego was dormant when we were with the creator. It didn't have anything to feed on. But once given power( ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil), he then thought he was God. It's self centered, arrogant, manipulated, cunning, and a liar. When in the ditch, it will pick up power and become full of itself and you never seen it coming. The ego knows how to keep you from true revelation of the scripture and keep you at bay, it tends to keep you in shallow water. Therefore, we go thru life with a thrust that just can't get quenched, unless we repent(to change mind). 

Life can change for you at any given moment. The choice is solely yours. The change is simple but heavy: 1) know who you are and 2) gauge your actions on the why, in what you do. 

Note, I didn't put belief in the equation, because when you know who you are, you then learn that your brief system is the heart beat to you your existing.
