The Passion Play? The 'bread' and 'wine'? The 'physical' resurrection? The 'betrayal' of Judas? Read on:
This story is about two adepts from an esoteric school who trained for twenty years to present a Passion Play designed to influence humanity.
It concerns the principal adepts Judas and Jesus. Both of them were astonishing. For instance, a suffering woman crept up behind Jesus and touched the hem of his garment, hoping to be cured. He immediately knew that power had gone out of him. Could a man on such a level of perception not know that he was about to be betrayed? Of course not. He knew well and agreed with the 'betrayal'.
The Sanhedrin was about to pounce and drag Jesus off. All part of the script. But inconvenient. Because it left no time to conduct the final spiritual technique before he died.
So Judas negotiated with the Rabbis and delayed his capture. He said he would give Jesus up later at an appropriate time.
This freed Jesus and the 'disciples', who were not simple fishermen but highly evolved initiates, to engage in the 'last supper'.
This was a far from symbolic technique which has pallid echoes even today in the ritual of blood brotherhood. It involved the 'disciples' consuming some of the Master's blood with slivers of his flesh to create a psychic bond with him, so that, at 'Pentecost' they could commune with a short time with his astral or etheric body — and prove for themselves, among other things that a form of 'life' continued beyond the grave.
The notion of Christ rising from the dead physically was a much later embellishment that has troubled rational thinkers ever since because they regard it rightly as nonsense. Dead bodies don’t get up and cavort. As for the 'virgin birth' it was borrowed from the myths of Mithras and Herakles and tacked on to the story later.
If you are a committed Christian, this explanation will either disgust you or furnish you with insights that have the ring of truth. You can read it in Clinton Smith's story, The Stand-in under FREE READS on the Buzzword Books website or download it here.
