In accordance with the Aramaic words spoken by Eshoa, he never uttered: "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" The meaning in Aramaic is closer to "For this purpose, I have been born." It occurs to me that mankind fanaticized its own abandonment, and many still await the appearance of a Savior. I think we have an obligation to dispel our fears and save ourselves from ignorance. Eshoa perhaps considered his purpose accomplished by attempting to awaken us to our undying nature. We are perpetually transmuting into various forms and conforming to nature's patterns. "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust," as the saying goes, from which it can be inferred, that we come to go. "In God we trust" need not become a cumbersome weight, since "God's yoke is light."* However, trust in God is complemented by reason, and it is not treason to see salvation living within you and me. Let us abandon reliance on a second coming, and realize the first coming is each occasion we are fully awake with the vitality of this unique yet inexpressible moment. Each thought uncontaminated by prior beliefs leaves us open to be " born again" and relieves us of scorn for unbelievers. Life is more than we see, but no less living for being unseen. Indeed, faith is "the evidence of things unseen," and the faithful remain to be seen. It is said "by their fruits you shall know them," but who is certain they understand the true essence of another human being?
