Crossing theological rivers


Sri Ramana Maharshi said, “To identify oneself with the body and yet seek happiness is like attempting to cross a river on the back of an alligator.”  I would turn that aphorism around. To identify yourself with the traditional definition of the spirit is like attempting to seek happiness by crossing a river with no legs, no arms, and no body.  

Seeking happiness by the death of the body (by blocking material desires) as the ascetic's do for the peak material experience of bliss it brings is seeking only the death of the body, and the bliss is not even God.  

The “spirit” is not non-material the spirit is the activating material will to Godhood, or Tirips. Tirips activates within material and supermaterial bodies to cross material rivers and evolve to supermaterial Godhood. Ascending levels of Godhood are supermaterial not spiritual.  

We are activated to live and evolve by way of the activation of Tirips or the will to Godhood within life, and then life interacts with the outside forces of natural selection and evolution which shapes us genetically and culturally.
