Ponderings on Resurrection
As Easter Morning approaches I find myself pondering the deeper meaning of resurrection. There is in the life of Jesus, no more miraculous or promising story told than that of his resurrection. The very possibility of resurrection stirs hope in the human heart.
As I ponder upon and consider the deeper meaning and message of resurrection, I see it as an affirmation of life and consciousness beyond the limitations of our physical being. It seems that Jesus’s appearing after his death, to the women at the tomb, and later in Galilee, were important demonstrations of the eternity of the life of the Soul and the continuity of consciousness.
This message is affirmed with joy on Easter morning with the ritual words, “He is risen, He is risen indeed!” These words speak to the promise of the eternal nature of our Soul and the importance of consciousness. Hidden in the miraculous story of the resurrection of Jesus are mysteries of how the Soul impacts matter to create life. The mechanics of life are miraculous and often veiled from our real understanding, as the mechanics of resurrection are veiled from our understanding. The significance of the resurrection story is in what it reveals to us about the life of the Soul and the nature of consciousness.
The resurrection story assures us that there is more possibility and potentiality in our Soul, in our consciousness, in the miracle of life itself, than we might have imagined. The resurrection demonstrates that although there is much we do not understand at this point in our awareness, the limitations we perceive and place upon ourselves can be just an illusion, and the nature of truth and reality are more vast and amazing than we can comprehend at this point in our evolution. Therefore I rejoice to the depth of my being in the possibility and promise that the story of the resurrection brings, in full understanding and faith that there is more to the miracle of life than I can understand, and that in the fullness of time and through the journey of exploring our timeless consciousness all will be revealed.
