Post #263 "Confusing Self with Other"

Where does the idea of God enter Consciousness ?
Being that Consciousness is awareness of Self and Other,
the idea of God would enter Consciousness either as an Observation of Reality
 or as a Perception of Creation.
Because 'God' seems to be a developing thought and a historical Process,
'God' would be seen as 'Becoming' rather than 'Being'.
Because humanity is a process of 'Becoming', as in 'Becoming' Perfect,
God is humanity's Dream of Becoming.
Humanity's Dream of Becoming is expressed as 'God', as 'God' is expressed as
Perfection.
 

It would be through Self's Perceptiom of Self or Self's Perception of Other,
that the idea, the Dream of Becoming 'Beyond', or 'Vaster than', or incomprehensable,
Became the Dream of God.
The Idea or the Dream of God, when entering history, became expressed in ownership.
God, as Creator, owned all He Created.
 Through Ownership, the idea of God was further expressed in Identity, through titles, in and through the crowns of papacy and kingship.
These titles were confered on kings by the representative of God on earth, the pope,
hence all titles and authority came from God.
Identity was based on relationship to God.
Perfection was seen as achieved in authority, and only God was seen
and is seen as ultimate Authority.
All  Authority was, and still is,
seen as coming from or developing from the idea of God,
from the idea that survival lay in 'beyondness' and 'vastness', and in 'incomprehendableness.

God is all about achieving Perfection and Perfection is all about Power',
for Power is Essence and Essence is Power.
Power is survival.
Power is attained by feeding off  'Others', ----the masses, the vulnerable.

God is the Image of Perfection,
consequently God is the Image of humanity's
Perception of Self having achieved the Dream of Perfection.

Image is not an exact reproduction of Reality,
as the projected information that creates the Image,
passess through the abyss of Nothingness,
passes through and becomes the Essence of Non-reality,
 as Reality exists and as Non-reality equally exists,
-------Non-reality imaging Reality.

There is Reality and there is the Reality of Non-reality.
Creation is the reality of Non-reality and exists as such.
Creation is real only to and in it-Self.
Creation is not Real to Reality.
Creation is not an exact duplicate.  

As Creation is the Image of Reality, the Image would be the reverse of Reality.

Ex. what is light to Reality would be darkness to Creation. and the reverse.

God is Perception,

but of what----

of Self or of Other?

Self negates the Other of Reality.

Why?

Does the Other of Reality seem to be 'beyond',

seem to be vast,

seems uncomprehendable?
Is God not described as 'beyondness', as 'vastness', as 'incomprehendable'? 
God is Perception.
God is not Observable.
Of what?
Do we see what we Perceive as 'good' as Self?
Is this what we consider Self?
Is evil what we see as defining Other?
Do we Perceive Other as evil?
Is what is not Self or of Self negative, as opposed to positive?
Is Positive energy what benefits us or as what works for us or our cause?
Do we provide the labels that define good and evil, consequently what defines Self and Other?
Do we try to incorporate what we admire into out Self,
 and try to eliminate what we dislike or disassociate our from our-Self,
---- from what we feel diminishes us,
thereby destroying our Essence of Self?

Is this not how we create God?
We see all that works for our survival as 'Good' including our-Selves.
We are 'good' for our-Self.
If God is our Dream of Pefection,
God is 'Good'.
In fact, God is very 'Good'.
God is the Perfection of 'Goodness'.
Why?
Because God controls life and death?
Because God is Infinite and holds the keys to Infiniteness?
Because we are all about survival?
------our own survival?
Because we Dream of Becoming what Consciousness eliminated-----
Consciousness eliminated the Other of Reality.
Consciousness eliminated Reality, and in Creation, we lost Entity and Infiniteness!!

Then, even though the terms 'beyond', and vast, and incomprehendable are used to
describe 'Otherness', the reversing Perception of Creation, confuses Other with Self.
We desire to eliminate that which we Dream and Desire to Become?
Why?
Is it because only in the elimination of what we desire can we truly possess and Become what
we Dream?
Can we only truly possess the magnificent stag of the forest by killing it?
We can't be Self without Other.
Self cannot and is not able to exist Infinitely in it-Self in what it has Created.
