Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 Behemoth and Leviathan appear in the Book of Job, they are the bestial aspects of God. Job stood against God and showed him his unconsciousness. God got a bad conscience which led to the birth of Christ. In desire we live out the bestial aspect of God. Behemoth and Leviathan become the host at the end of time. A full resolution of the beast issue happens when it is assimilated. It becomes the saving experience. Behemoth and Leviathan become the sacred meal. Concerning 9/11, the Muslims hate our greed, this is what they attacked. The meaning in Behemoth is going back to our primitive desirousness and finding the spirit in it. In Revelations, speaks of bowls of plague -- the horror is in golden bowls, indicating it has a hidden value. The value is in the low thing. The shadow contents are in the bowl. Aids, HIV, is a symbol for people who have unclear boundary relations to the world. The whore carries the golden bowl, the value of what was once despised. She is also sexuality not dominated by male rules. The question becomes, how do you transform promiscuity without being moralistic. When there is an emotional state that is overpowering, e.g. addiction, you can go into it and enjoy it but if you continue to look inside it you'll see a thread that leads you out of it. You indulge in the behavior to get at the meaning. But to do this there has to be ego cohesiveness. If not, it won't work. There must be some responsibility. If there is no ego you need AA and to be helped thru the dragon myth. A content not realized is acted out. The apocalypse is the Self coming into cons awareness. If this happens to enough people consciously then we'll be spared the worst aspects. Every analysis is a miniature apocalypse. End of my notes. A very important book and very relevant considering that our country feels compelled to 'shock and awe'. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
