#Cosmic Man

[noosphe-re]

Without feet, without hands, he moves, he grasps; eyeless he sees, earless he hears; he knows all that is to be known, yet there is no knower of him. Men call him the Primordial Person, the Cosmic Man. Smaller than small, greater than great....

C.G. Jung, Collected Works, Volume 5: Symbols of Transformation, Paragraph 182

Christ has two natures: what does that have to do with me? If He bears the name of Christ, magnificent and consoling as it is, it is because of the ministry and the task He took upon Himself; that is what gives Him the Name. That He is by nature both man and God, this is something for Himself. But that He consecrated His ministry and poured out His love to become my Savior and my Redeemer, that is where I find my consolation and my good.

- Martin Luther

Christ has two natures: what is that to me? — But the substantial reparation of humanity lies in that very fact. But this joining of the divine and human touches what is most profound and most inalienable in me, my very nature. Christ has two natures: what is that to me? — But every living intelligence is directly, personally, profoundly involved in this central fact of the history of being, which brings divinization of creatures. At the moment that affects the very depths of being itself, it affects the depths of my own being.

- Fr. Pierre Rousselot, S.J., in a lecture given on the passage above in 1909-1910.

On occasion [Luther and Melanchthon] freely express themselves in a paradoxical, antithetical way which one should not always take literally. Still, their language does indicate a tendency. Neither Luther nor Melanchthon —nor Calvin, for that matter— "pauses to analyze the being of the eternal Son of God made man, i.e., to describe the hypostatic union; rather, they proceed directly to the explanation of his redemptive work"; their entire perspective remains soteriological. With Luther most particularly, his customary language manifests a thought which is "less concerned about knowing Christ's inner mystery than about hearing his promises and the sovereign call of his voice" — and even, we must admit, "a certain scorn for all intellectual dogmatic statements, which he considers as only a side issue in true religious life." [...] We may, however, observe that this consequence is logical enough: if one begins with an experience in which the person of Christ tends to disappear behind his gifts, if the Incarnation is looked upon as a simple prelude to the redemption, it is quite natural to find oneself being carried away to a more and more subjective theology[, ...] an anthropocentric withdrawal.

Dyāus, the vedic sky god. One of the two primal personifications of reality, Dyāus was created by the primordial Prajapati coupled together with Prithvi, the earth goddess. Together these two gave birth to the Vedic gods and goddesses; Indra, Varuna, Surya, Agni, Vishnu, all of them came from their coupling. Dyāus was said to take the form of a black stallion whose coat was the night sky or a crimson bull who fertilized the earth. In a mighty act, Dyāus’s son Indra, was able to separate Dyāus from Prithvi, the sky from the earth. Despite this Dyāus continued to live on, however this wouldn’t last long. Dyāus drew Indra’s rage when the sky god assaulted one of his daughters, the dawn goddess Ushas. Indra’s frenzy grew as he confronted his father for his horrid act. The battle concluded with Indra ripping Dyāus out of the sky by his leg and slamming him to the ground, killing him. From Dyāus’ body the gods organized the world as it is known today.

Dyāus is a god only briefly mentioned in Rigvedic literature, despite the importance of his myth. Several different creation myths exist in the Rigveda with Dyāus only being a part of one. Dyāus however could be another name for Purusha, the cosmic being that the gods sacrificed to create the world in a separate creation story. Dyāus is one of the most concrete descendants of the Proto-indo-European Dyēus, this is proven further with Dyāus’ title of Dyāus pitir which is identical with Dyēus’ Dyēus pitir. Because of this, Dyāus is connected with the other descendants theological of Dyēus, such as the Slavic Perun, the Nordic Thor, and the Greek Zeus. Dyāus ultimately fell to the wayside as Vedism evolved into Hinduism, despite this Indra’s feat of separating the earth from the sky is still celebrated in modern Hinduism.

hey, remember being 18 years old and playing mass effect for the first time and it's got this like intense aura of being very small and very insignificant in a very big, very empty galaxy? remember playing mass effect for the first time and everything all of this is so new and mysterious, and it's 2am and you're sitting in a dark room in the light from your tv and you're playing through feros for the first time and you feel that this is someting very old and very ancient and you are somewhere you shouldn't be and you don't know what's going to happen or where you're going but you keep on. there's a tingling in your stomach and you're playing mass effect for the first time. the thorian is a milennia old sentient plant being. the rachni queen is old and telepathic and a hive mind and in pain. sovereign is an ancient machine that has not been built but is, and has always been, and this is something so alien and so unlike and beyond anything your human mind can comprehend, and this is something unexplainable and huge and as uncaring and indifferent as the empty galaxy around you. you're playing mass effect for the first time and you're walking on the surface of an almost completely empty planet with nothing but your two companions silently walking beside you and everything is so huge and empty and silent and you're so small and insignificant and it's so beautiful and so scary and you feel like you are on a rollercoaster about to drop down. you are playing mass effect for the first time and you're playing the mission on the moon and you stop and just look up at earth visible in the sky. you know this. this is home. you are playing mass effect for the first time, and the galaxy is so big, and you are so tiny, and everything is about to change for you.

choso being in love with the concept of marriage.

you mean to tell him that you hold a ceremony in front of loved ones to celebrate a union of love??? that everyone knows you're bound together for what is suppose to be forever!?

RINGS telling strangers "hey I'm taken!"!?

even the government knows you made vows and are bound by official legal documents??

a new family unit that can get bigger if you choose to do so??

truly a dream for him. he's already on the way to look for a ring just for you. ♡

In effect, for Christianity, God and the universe meet in Jesus Christ. The mystery of the divine will expressed in creation is revealed to us in Jesus Christ, center and terminus of every creature.
