According to Einstein's E=mc2, all matter consists of energy. This energy is one vast intelligent consciousness; otherwise how could this awesome creation exist with all its endless variations of physical, mental, and spiritual beingness? Therefore I agree with SM that Jesus was a physical incarnation of the Invisible/Supreme Consciousness known as God. Furthermore, in a sense, Daverkb, you are correct that objects we view are illusions, not concrete objects without energy but manifestations of energy in its most dense form. One more thing, who is it that is seeing these objects? Is it the mind? But when the mind is completely quiet, we still see the objects. For example, when we see a majestic mountain, an eagle in flight, a dolphin leap out of the sea, our minds stop in awe, yet we still see the object. It is the soul beyond the mind which perceives, the same soul that perceives through all the senses and feels emotions also, the soul that God planted in each of us.

It's the Bluebird singing a song again. And yes, there is much, much more to things than I once upon a time could imagine. And the largeness and grandeur of Creation is humbling. And once glimpsed and understood, an addiction to the things of this world is rather nonsensical.

Daverkb, so true what you say - that the longer one walks on the path to knowing God's truth, the less the material world means and the greater the sublimity of Spirit means and is experienced.

Davekrkb, please expound on “glimpsed and understood”, specifically “understood”. I agree with you totally and I know there’s not any absolute nirvana in this world, but making this world nonsensical seems to be easier for some than others.
