Q: How to interpret the scholarly words?
For example,
His disciples said, "When will you become revealed to us and when shall we see you?"
Jesus said, "When you disrobe without being ashamed and take up your garments and place them under your feet like little children and tread on them, then will you see the son of the living one, and you will not be afraid"
And he said, "Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings will not experience death."
Jesus said, "Let him who seeks continue seeking until he finds. When he finds, he will become troubled. When he becomes troubled, he will be astonished, and he will rule over the All."
Jesus asked his disciples to remove your cloths and in be naked without being ashamed, and then you can see me at any time with the above condition.
Nobody will accept it as a scholarly word. Then how to interpret it?
Their knowledge about our life is entirely different from our modern concept. They have considered it into two parts. One is our physical body and the other is subtle body and they mentioned it as spirit or spiritual body (spirit is a gaseous substance). We can say it as our breathing system. Even though the breathing system is within the physical body, it was considered as two separate things by them.
The main difference between the dead body and live one is breathing. Where is no breath, there is no life. Breathing system is important as physical body in our total life. They have compared the physical body with the garments and the breathing body with celestial one. What we breathe is a simple gaseous substance and it has no death and is imperishable. It has come from Imperishable and will go to the same place, from where it came. It won’t taste the death, unlike the physical body.
From the above narration, we can understand our real life.
Our life is our God. Nothing is greater than our life in the world. So, according to the above scriptural word, if we want to know our God, we must remove garments and then see him. Furthermore, there is a very important link between our life and our universe.
Formula for our real life is that Total body minus physical body. We are identified ourselves only with our physical body and not by spiritual body. According to this theory we all are in one and the above one is in all.
The above details are given in a simple form about our life - earthly things.
Now we can read more words related the above subject:
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
