dear aj,

"an ancient ship
decks creaking
on the calm, sunny sea..
.... his eyes were clear and pure
and light shone through him
in one timeless moment
....drowning from yearning
fevered i'm burning
in sadness
and longing
(part of your dream)

" think the dream was about my oversoul, or reflective of an inner yearning to be reunited with "christ consciousness" again." (your conclusion)

found this and thought of you and this longing...
"surely the part that water plays in bringing spiritual revelation in scripture can be seen to be full of deeper meaning considering that it is the esoteric symbol for the etheric body, which alone can begin to reveal the spiritual world to the human being." fr smith's "the burning bush",see, the second coming, p.7 (entire chapter gives a context in which to place, much about the heart and pineal gland)

"we can now return to the concept of moving water, which pervades the old testament (e.g., gen 2,10-14; ps 1,3), also john’s gospel. christ tells the woman at the still well that he will give her “living water . . . which will become a spring in [her] welling up to eternal life” (jn 4,10,14). then in jn 5,7 we see that the lame man at the pool cannot be healed until the water is made to move (how like what must happen with the “lotus flowers”). later, jesus appears to his disciples walking on the water (jn 6,19, as well as all of the synoptics). and when his side was punctured, “blood and water” flowed out (jn 19,34), both representative of the etheric body; also, the ego first made its entrance into the human being’s body through the blood. consider as well that moses came to israel on the water (ex 2,3-10), and while he was on the water the etheric body he had received from zarathustra was illuminated (see “spiritual economy”). so also zarathustra, in his many preparatory incarnations, came “on the water” (see the book with fourteen seals [bfs]; also nhl, “the apocalypse of adam”)." nina
