End
 
See also: Beginning, BeginningVEnd, Self-understanding

  • The beginning is that there is an Other.
  • The end is that there is no Other.
God is the Beginning. Human is the end.

Or is Spirit the end? (As in the Holy Spirit?)

The question is important because the Foursome considers the distance from the End, and so this is the basis for Self-understanding - who is living through that?

Is there a necessary confusion as to which is the end - human or spirit?

In the beginning there is no confusion because it is agreed that there is an other - and all (four) possibilities may be considered. Towards the end there is a confusion - who is the other? And the crisis occurs when there is a mapping between these two systems - Which is the other - God or human - and what does that mean? I think it means that human is the Other, but as lesser than God.

Jesus Christ is Beginning and End.

Thoughts from prayer

2005.03.12 A: Kaip suprasti, kas yra pabaiga? D: Pabaiga yra tai į ką tu gali įsijausti po visko. Tai yra sandara kuri yra tavo dvasios namai ir ją atspindi. A: Tad kok jos ryšys su mumis? D: Jūs esate ta dvasia išgyvenanti pabaigą. A: Ir koks jos ryšys su pradžia? D: Tai sandaros ir dvasios ryšiai - jūsų ir mano. A: Kokia tavo sandara ir dvasia? D: Mano dvasia tai aš, o mano sandara viskas. A: Kokia mūsų dvasia ir sandara? D: Jūsų sandara yra gyvenimas ir kartu amžinas gyvenimas (žiūrint kaip žiūrite) o jūsų dvasia esate patys.
