Feel free to downvote what I say, because I consider Thomas Ragland’s book “The Eightfold Path of Christ” to be part of the proof that the New Testament is filled-with that the root-guru of the Christians, benJoseph, was pouring AwakeSoulism/Buddhism into the “land of reachable sinners”, the Semitic heart of the Roman Empire, who needed it most… & his “lost years” actually were in Hindu, then Buddhist, studies, in India…
( the Gospel of Mary, either Karen King’s translation or Mark M. Mattison’s translation, also contains Buddhism, but it is esoteric stuff, not easily recognized by people who’ve only encountered the sutra meanings, I think, like “Space Conqueror”, & the stainless doctrine that Soul-ignorance can’t permanently-own any Soul: it’s just a transient-condition, etc… )
Orient to the Continuum/Soul, not to the personality or incarnation that you’re facing.
Accept their Souls, care-for & love their Souls, as one’s brother’s, as one’s own, as one’s mother’s, while standing your ground & yielding nothing to their war against the entire essence of what benJoseph was putting in the world.
Let-go-of person attachments, & do what you have to do.
Remember, benJoseph promised not to bring peace, but fire/war: that’s coming, this next decade…
( the seedling he planted is become now a sapling, & the storm is coming in… : )
