Ok, so father and son themes emerging...Bob May I noticed posted a song about the father son, very nice lyrics! Today I also talkign in anotehr thread about Saturn and son Jupiter. And then I just went to see if I could find that quote from Supermans father and I found not only that but one from Superman to his son...so post both. We've been talking here about mother alot lately, not surprised now the father enters in...
'mother' 'father' parts of 'us', the polarities and the third perspective is power, nagual union awareness...form (father) void (mother).
Superman: [to Jason asleep in his bed] You will be different, sometimes you'll feel like an outcast, but you'll never be alone. You will make my strength your own. You will see my life through your eyes, as your life will be seen through mine. The son becomes the father and the father becomes the son.
Jor-El: [Superman is remembering Jor-El's last message to him from the first film] Live as one of them, Kal-El, to discover where your strength and your power are needed. Always hold in your heart the pride of your special heritage. They can be a great people, Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you... my only son.
Superman is a very good example of allegorical stories. I think Kryptonite might be ego or self importance.
At my old church we use to analyse a lot of the old classics. Don Quixote is very good as are the King Arthur tales and the Wizard of Oz. In modern times The Matrix is also very good.
Whether the authors of these classics knew what they were writing or not is not that important. We get inspired and the themes and patterns come out and shine through.
One line from the Man of La Mancha has always stuck with me. "The woman is the very soul of man." This holds true in piecing together the allegory of the book of Genesis.
Also the idea that we can go to unimaginable places and not leave our meditation chair. This theme runs through all of these tales Oz, Matrix, Don quixote etc.
Mt 24:41
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Mt 24:42
Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
One of the least understood and most important themes concerning the end times. An awareness of what is going on invisibly all around us can be experienced by one person while others are completely oblivious to it.
Echoes of Superman's exray vision, I think.
Joh 14:22
Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
