What is it about real love and a true relationship?
I mean to seriously ask, what is it about the reality behind the miracle of a love relationship?
The cup or chalice in medieval legend used by Jesus at the Last Supper, and subsequently the material object of many chivalrous quests, has been a subject of a prolonged conscientious effort to uncover its whereabouts.
Its history has been everywhere.
In the novel by Dan Brown, The DaVinci Code suggests many clues to the undiscovered Grail hidden in the works of artist Leonardo DaVinci.
In the days when the newly formed church outlawed speaking of or writing about the much-shunned Mary Magdalene, her story and importance had to be passed on through discrete channels, such as the arts that supported metaphor and symbolism.
A perfect example of the miracle is the portrayal of the Last Supper.
We can quietly gaze at Mary Magdalene’s long red hair and quiet eyes where we see something in the expression of this beautiful woman that echoes loss of a loved one, but not a loss of love itself.
Is the chalice merely a metaphor for something far more important?
A message for humanity about real love and true relationship?
Perhaps down through the centuries and more so in recent decades, many have had suggesting thoughts of a romantic relationship between Jesus and Mary Magdalene, and that she indeed was a spiritual woman, and was not the prostitute image the church had wished that we project.
If they were a loving couple with real love and true relationship, then so is it as a blessing.
But this is not my point, here.
My challenge to you is, could it be that our own mirroring of each other is where we will discover the real Grail, which we have not been very willing to accept?
Could this unwillingness to overlook the ego be why we’ve not yet uncovered it?
It is the oneness of mind we must discover in ourselves and by accepting this instead of a separated ego-based thought system, our seeking is over.
The Holy Grail in and of itself is really not the cup that held the wine Jesus drank from, literally. It’s in the cup’s content as the bloodline Jesus was holding.
However, unlike Dan Brown’s novel by Anchor Books, which led me to my conclusion from the physical, it is the Divine Blood Line called Christ that all of humankind shares.
Here is the Holy Grail discovered, after all. But please bear with me here.
At the Last Supper, Jesus shared that message not only with the male apostles, but as well with his female loved one, life companion, or, wife, if you’d like, Mary Magdalene, seated at his right side in communion together as Christ.
Jesus wanted us to realize Christ and receive Him in the feminine, too, as well as the masculine.
For reasons of fear, not love, our ego-based thought system does not want the miracle of real love.
I mean to say, all along has chosen to think in separate terms of man and woman, rather than the one Whole Child of God, regardless of sexual gender in the dream of duality.
Time has been and continues to step in to heal this misinformed projection made by an erroneous thought process, separated from true reality.
(Please note, I want to suggest another article all about: If you feel overtaken by guilt and fear how then may you strengthen and flourish by the splendor of your eternal essence?)
Real Love and True Relationship Realization Keeps us Aligned to the Miracle
For centuries within the dream of separate identities, talented individuals everywhere have been inspired to express all of this, by extending their own reflective thoughts in a fashion that may accelerate healing through their discrete messages.
We can look at some of the most enduring art, literature, and music that esoterically try to communicate history, such as Mary Magdalene and her actual, real relationship with Jesus.
In addition to DaVinci’s messages there were Botticelli, Poussin, Bernini, Mozart, and Victor Hugo that all whisper of the quest to restore the banished sacred “feminine,” and bring her in line with the masculine.
Legends like Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, King Arthur, and Sleeping Beauty have given us symbolic illustration.
Before his bodily form exited the dream of life, Walt Disney’s hidden messages dealt with religion, pagan myth, and stories of the subservient goddess.
It’s in Disney’s tales like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White, all of which dealt with the sacred feminine.
Nor did one need a background in symbolism to understand that Snow White, a princess who fell from grace after partaking of a poisoned apple, was clearly an indirect mention of the fall to temptation of Eve in the Garden of Eden.
The Little Mermaid is a spell-binding tapestry of spiritual symbols so specifically goddess related that they could not be a coincidence.
The Little Mermaid actually portrays Ariel’s underwater home as none other than seventeenth-century artist Georges de la Tour’s The Penitent Magdalene, a famous special homage to the banished Mary Magdalene, the fitting décor considering the movie turned out to be a ninety-minute collage of blatant symbolic reference to the lost sanctity of Isis, Eve, Pisces the fish goddess, and reportedly, Mary Magdalene.
The Little Mermaid’s name, Ariel, possessed powerful ties to the sacred feminine and, in the Book of Isaiah was synonymous with the “Holy City besieged.”
Of course, the Little Mermaid’s flowing red hair was certainly no coincidence either. But the ego-based mind will make its way to provide us with its interpretation.
The Holy Spirit gives you the eternal holy instant to recognize things you’d not otherwise own up to.
The function of the holy instant is to remove judgment entirely, because it’s your projection of what has occurred in the past.
Our past experiences are the basis for which we judge any given situation, as well as other individuals and the world we live in.
But ask yourself, who made the past, your ego-based mind or God?
If we live in the past which is unreal, then how can we judge anything real?
Judgment was not created, it has been constructed from a projected thought made by an uncertain ego-based mind, and seen by the body’s eyes.
Without the past, the ego is lost.
But we think we want the past and are afraid of not having judgment on our side, because we believe that without the ego our lives would be chaotic.
We feel we need the separation where God is outside of us watching over from a place we may eventually go to. In this respect we are lacking in what we think is salvation.
In order that the ego-based mind may continually split and fragment its thoughts, like you’d see cells splitting under a microscope, it will need the past, which is how we learned of our false ideas and false needs.
But we continue to think that false is true.
Why does history repeat itself?
But we do often ask, “When will we learn from the mistakes of history?” and we do learn. But are we learning how to be better at judging?
Or, is it we learn to closer define our individual needs that include judging? In this we seek out a more efficient direction for meeting these needs on our own separate terms.
We think discovering a material object like the “Chalice,” the finding of the Grail, will save us and set us free.
Are you seeking magic or miracles?
(I’d like to recommend a related article about this: When realizing the miracle meaning to live your dreams with appreciation you begin to naturally use this power for the life you want.)
Yes, are you seeking magic or miracles in real love?
