I haven't seen the Kingdom of Heaven and therefore didn't fully appreciate the import of his comments, out of context. It did inspire me to get a hold of KoH, though. Looks interesting, and David Thewlis always is worth watching.

'Are you not going to certain death?'
'Death is always certain.'

or:

You go to certain death!
All death is certain.

I am left divided

to this discussion

as i witness the conglomerate of unified approach

of

individually applied direction of union of whole

timeless death s

merging awareness to provide the advance unified

within the singular vessel

haunted by those elements of my

ancestral knowledge

to appease and forefill that potential

are eagles all the same dreamers of lines

when they place their awareness upon the dream ?

i mean to say

some things are pressing

so do you feel its an advance of sorts in

bundle of truth ?

click clack

one foot follows another

how is it i remember myself and purpose

and yet this i is not what i would have known

within this one and final

applied death of this "one" life s memories

so i ask "who" is this death ?

and "who" am i within this death ?

and what is "time" to me

i know it sounds unreasonable like  scattered pieces of a jigsaw

which sometimes pulls all together

As they sing in one song:

It is a long way to heaven - and it is an equal a long way back home.

What's so scary about it?

that s a good and hard question

being filled with light realizing the beauty which is present

yet ordinarily unrealized

being filled with "everything"

and then realizing that that everything is a part of your own awareness

connected

watching that light move within everything

and everything become of that light

then the fright became from wondering if i would ever

be able to function again normally

as in not connected and moving everything as i moved with the entire awareness

and that still holds to some degree everyday

aligning with power

yet power that is not entirely ours to begin

that everything is as an illusion

and that the illusion is equally valid and real / impressionable

the responsibility

and the hu-man-ness left in charge .

entirely the humanness having shit itself in the face of losing any rational and having no precedence

of any such

Well please, Stick a needle in your Eye and tell us what experience you have of that illusion.

Power for the Toltec warrior is - Personal Power. "Our Power" is not given from beyond. Personal Power is what Counts on a spirtual path
One can gain that Personal Power through several ways, but the basic way is to: Clean, Heal and Strenghten our Tonal.

Michael , i understand your question from the perspective i believe you are asking ,

and that ineffable then as you say is so effable its not funny.

Jahn ,

when i read your statements , it leads me to to see

what has been written about sorcerers throughout the bible ,

in the face of "god" no magic trick would stand up from any sorcerer.

from what i have understood silence is the main trick of sorcerers in toltec terms to arrive at the ineffable

yet i also understand we can be led by the water itself which is very much alive

and that is progressive

when we look at those stars we see stars

yet when we look here we see something different

the symbolic journey and the characters exist here "wholy"

and some travellers are existing here in form journeying again throughout that immediate perception

of the stars manifest on earth

the mountain of lights can be reached upon the water as that journey

it is no wonder the christians buddhists muslims etc reach extreme breaking points

where at turns in history new perspectives are arrived at as superior to another

and supercede them

what would be of more value would be a stage of understanding and not tampering trifly

i can completely understand why the conquistadors would have found the toltec distasteful

and separatist in their view

having encountered one eyed "lead" based upon present faiths

taken for granted

poke myself in the eye ?

the value of "truth "

as the path is monumental

and that truth guided by faith

that alignment "not strategic "

open eyed and following the "alpha and omega" path as

"sophia " untainted archetype existing with each one as silences ears

and the light as the way "truth" personified

when jesus said who will follow his father should pack up and begin walking even from their family

was a strong sentiment i could understand now

being led that way

i cannot speak for toltec or christian as i am neither or both

i can only describe or try

from what i can gather myself in relation to that

BTW , under the circumstances here i dreamed last night i went

to see a "toltec" statue to gauge its "energy or power or memory of power"

it had its arms crossed

and outside lowly lit

as far as i can see the toltecs are embodiments of energetic structure themselves

and like reincarnated archetypes

of another side to a human

the collection of archetypes existing through carrying the seed to another generation

through embodying the stories as myths

as is the christian faith also an attempt at existing further the formula worked out

to give a stable base to existence for future generations

just like this thats the reason i believe a working relationship better to be arrived at through introspection

and balanced centre point discussions

to find parallels and working models of universal truth s

for universal growth based upon working truths even laws

laws being proven models

one thing about toltecs i found is working for the loss of self importance

yet a path that is carved around power

not that its not imprinted in every being in some stage

it just seems a strange inconsistency to have been embedded into that path

only to be later dropped

as with so much of it

it seems to me to represent a pantomime

of pointing to truth s through an active role play

yet i found carlos castanedas attempts to have been lost to so many

i am just not so sure about where a lot are pointing

sure im rambling

but i have a lot to get out :)

I might be getting you wrong here.

Re: death
Do you focus more on the 'understanding'and 'perceiving' aspects of the journey of life rather than taking it literally, i.e. re-shaping oneself with the aim of maintaining awareness beyond death?
