Why a new religious Mass of the Twofold Path is required
It is, of course, the ascetically
negative way to describe it, but the experience of the God Within or
the Father Within of Christ and Buddha requires the “death of
life,” that is, all the desires of the flesh and the material world
need to be blocked or dissipated to experience the real bliss of the
God Within. This goal of the God Within defines the basic origin of Christian and
Buddhist values and morals, which were later dumbed down by religious
philosophers to make the extreme life of asceticism more palatable to
the public. The Vedic thinkers had perhaps the best solution in
declaring stages of human life allowing survival and reproduction but
advocating asceticism at the end of life.
The God Within is not real Godhood, it
is the first historical glimpse or experience of what Godhood may be
like when life evolves in the material world to supermaterial
Godhood. There seems to be an endless evolution of improvements in
beauty, truth, power and goodness, with many starts and stops along
the way. But this does not lead to the rejection of the Inward Path
of the great religions, it describes the transformations of the
Twofold Path, the involutionary and evolutionary paths, described in
theological materialism, which includes both paths and both
philosophical naturalism and religious theology.
The charge of megalomania is not enough
to stop the call for a new religious Mass, which is required to
affirm the Twofold Path, patterned after the traditional Mass in the
conservative way of including the best of the past in the present and
future, to help bond and give solace over the long term evolution of
life toward Godhood.
