You recognize the importance of myth for the human
psyche. You would like to know what I think about it.
Well, I too very much believe this way, and believed in this sort
of manifestation as a mortal. In my part of the world, myth and
symbol were very important.
But it is very harmful to reduce the Biblical narratives to just
myth, for the simple reason that they often are based on historical
realities.
And my life was real, as was my transformation of soul to the
New Birth. This actually happened on Earth, and it is why I am God's
Messiah.
It is a good thing to derive a fine, uplifting message from a
Bible story, or from any story. But the Bible attributes to me things
I never said, and it omits my central teaching, the New Birth of
the soul in the Divine Love, except in the very brief mention of
being born again.
