Gordie, may I suggest that you do not ponder the info in my response from an intellectual standpoint, but rather let it reveal itself through the heart, for that is where the depth and true understanding of it reside. As I expressed in connection with the 2nd highlighted statement, “True wisdom is profoundly simple.” When the intellect is allowed to go to the heart, we have what is called ‘love-wisdom’ … the wisdom of the heart.
Rest in the revelation from the heart, for that is what you have been showing in all your writings: … in the insights or lessons you get from your daily experiencing. To me they have been profoundly simple . . . pure heart wisdom. That is why I have responded more to you than to any other Medium writer.
I have been a scholar all my life. I am now bored with products of the intellect; they are as words rambling on without meaning. But, I must admit, I do know them well. That is my past.
Regarding the first highlighted paragraph, might I suggest that you visualize a ‘U’, with the right side being Involution and a downward arrow representing Spirit’s descent into matter. In the trough at the bottom is where the masses of humanity are in 3rd-dimension physical density at this moment. On the left side, see Evolution and an arrow pointing upward, representing Ascension and the return home.
Regarding the spiral concept as opposed to a circle: Everything evolves, which means there is always progression. We as humans came into manifestation from the higher, more etheric realms so that we could experience, learn, grow, and evolve … and return back to Source.
Enjoy your musings from the heart.
