The Enlightenment of Jesus Christ

Jesus of Nazareth was enlightened, in the same sense that the word is used in spiritual circles today. Jesus was awake to the truth of his own nature and the nature of the universe, and he lived out of that awareness. His awakening experience is told in all three canonical gospels in the story known as his baptism. It is much more than the story of Jesus going through a religious rite. It describes his spiritual awakening in symbolic language, analogous to Siddhartha Gautama’s (the Buddha’s) awakening under the Bodhi Tree. In this episode I explore the biblical story, draw parallels to nondual awareness and explore the implications for Christians today. View Marshall's books here:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
