| BkV:17.IV.19 | When I say you are the realized one, I am not saying you are something that God has done. You are not the result of a potter who takes clay and makes you like a statue and then gives life by breathing into you a vital breath. That metaphor should be properly understood. Your being has been "molded" by the spirit of wisdom and therefore was created in perfection with all the elements of divinity. That is what is meant by, "and breathed into him the breath of life, and man became a living being." |
