Beavs, Please do explain this death on a cross of matter.
My avatar is the ankh=The ankh-cross, symbol of life when spirit and matter are tied together, the ankham-flower of immortality,
the soul entering or crossed with the matter of flesh, the vertical bar is spirit male positive, the horizontal is female matter negative the round part is the flower of immortality, so while we live on earth/hades/Amenta/Egypt-the flesh pit our souls are experiencing death in matter as opposed to life as spirit in the above, here on earth we are in the below, flesh is the cross we bear through Egypt/earth in the shadow of death, this is from the souls perspective which is the reasoning part of the human---something like that
This city of the body, where the sun of soul sank to its death on the cross of matter, to rearise in a new birth, was called the city of the sun, or in Greek, Heliopolis, but in the Egyptian, ANU. The name was given to an actual Egyptian city, where the rites of the death, burial and resurrection of Osiris or Horus were enacted each year; but the name bore a theological significance before it was given to a geographical town. The name is obviously made up of NU, the name for the mother heaven, or empty space, or abyss of nothingness, and Alpha privative, meaning, as in thousands of words, "not." A-NU would then mean
"not-nothingness," or a world of concrete actuality, the world of physical substantial manifestation. Precisely such a world it is in which units of virginal consciousness go to their death and rise again. A-NU is then the physical body of man on earth. The soul descends out of the waters of the abyss of the NUN, or space in its undifferentiated unity, which is the sign and name of all things negative. The NUN is indeed our "none." Life in the completeness of its unity is negative. To become positively manifest it must differentiate itself into duality, establish positive-negative tension, and later split up into untold multiplicity. This brings out the significance of the Biblical word "multiply." Life can not manifest itself in concrete forms until it multiplies itself endlessly. Unit life of deity must break itself up into infinite fragments in order to fill empty space with a multitude of worlds and beings of different natures. The primal Sea or Mother must engender a multitudinous progeny, to spawn the limitless shoals of organic fish-worlds. This is the meaning of the promise given to Abraham, that his seed should
multiply till it filled the earth with offspring countless as the sands of the seashore. And if life was symboled by bread, as the first birth, and by fish, as the second, then we might expect to find in old religious typology the allegory of a Christ figure
multiplying loaves and fishes! Are we surprised to find that the Gospel Jesus does this very thing,
multiplying the fish loaves and two small fishes to feed a
multitude!http://pc93.tripod.com/lostlght.htm
