Jesus' Spiritual Rebirth Method? Within the Lord's Prayer?

 

"You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free," (John 8:32)

This post continues the theme of: Jesus' Experiential Knowledge Methods & Teachings? And my simple truth about language that frees me from perceptual confusion, as promised in Jesus' historical prophecy: "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come," (Matthew 24:14). And following the previous post's confession that: "for decades now, I have felt that Jesus' words; "Our Father which art in heaven" and "I and the Father are one," simply signify the reality of the Sun. And that Jesus was not actually a supernatural being, but arguably the most brilliant philosopher of mind, in human history."

This post explains how I personally experience the spiritual rebirth method within the Lord's prayer. As one of the "riddle-me-this" simple truth versions of Jesus' experiential knowledge methods & teachings. And how I experience an embodied sense of the notion that Jesus was a brilliant natural philosopher, trained in the ancient mystery school art of gaining experiential knowledge? 

As I try to convey the possibility that you too, can experience the "reality-reorienting" spiritual rebirth intention within the Lord's prayer. And come to know the simple truth that shall make you free, to paraphrase Jesus. Not freed from the behavioral nature of human immorality, that religiously minded people tend to believe i

s the obvious reason for Jesus' Sermon on the mount.

But free from the misconceptions of reality inherent in language, if you practice "thinking" the words below while feeling the warmth of the Sun, with your body. Will you come to feel the freedom from perceptual confusion, intention of Jesus' teaching of the Lord's prayer? Please consider with your intellect and body-wise contemplation, the "psycho-spiritual-rebirth" intention of these particular words:

"Our Father which art in heaven," (Luke 11:2-4).

Jesus' Experiential Knowledge Methods & Teachings?

Our Father which art in heaven . . . lead us not into temptation;

 but deliver us from evil," (Luke 11:2-4)

This post continues the theme of: The Historical Purpose of Jesus' Story? And my late-life efforts to understand the purpose and philosophy of mind, behind the story that was taught to me as literal history when I was a child. Because the older I get (74) the more I feel the generational nature of humanity's self-inflicted problems, and the "riddle-me-this" nature of ancient wisdom sayings and stories. 

And I still remember my father's phrase about the self-inflicted nature of problems in this life: "you're your own worst enemy, you are!" With the exclamation mark (!) meant to signify the anger toned nature of his voice, and the implicit―suggested but not communicated directly―meaning of "lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil?"

Because for decades now, I have felt that Jesus' words; "Our Father which art in heaven" and "I and the Father are one," simply signify the reality of the Sun. And that Jesus was not actually a supernatural being, but arguably the most brilliant philosopher of mind, in human history. And a philosopher of mind who was likely aware of the via-negative form of cognitive behavioral therapy, known as the Socratic method? 

And I feel he was most a likely graduate of an ancient mystery school system of teaching and practicing the embodied wisdom of experiential knowledge? And sworn to secrecy about the actual methods used within many ancient mystery schools. Please consider this intro to footnote 1:

Ancient mystery schools were private religious and philosophical institutions in the ancient Mediterranean and Near East where initiates underwent secret rituals to learn esoteric cosmic truths, experience spiritual rebirth, and secure personal salvation. The most prominent examples include the Eleusinian Mysteries of Greece, the Egyptian temple priesthoods, and the Mithraic Mysteries of the Roman world. A Google AI Overview

The Historical Purpose of Jesus' Story?

"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world

as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come," (Matthew 24:14)

Like all the posts in this 2026 series of my personal efforts to make lived-experience sense of the story I raised with. This one continues the theme of The Jesus K.I.S.S. Truth That Sets You Free?  By exploring what history understands about the historical purpose of Jesus' story, and what the quotation above actually means. Because for a storytelling species like ours. I doubt whether even the most ardent Atheist would disagree with the notion, that the Jesus' story is the most intriguing story in human history. What do you think? True or false?

A question I ask because I was an ardent Atheist during my early adulthood, right up to age 28 when I experienced a profound sense of rebirth. Which cemented a felt-sense of curiosity and intrigue about the historical purpose of the Jesus' story. Because my experience of sensory rebirth touched the inborn nature of my intuition, and I've never been able to shake this off. Despite an obvious need to go along and get along with the "consensus-reality" beliefs of my character shaping culture. Please consider:

"Consensus reality is the generally agreed-upon set of beliefs, norms, and shared assumptions that a community or society accepts as real. It is a social construct rather than objective truth, dictating practical everyday agreements like the value of money, the measurement of time, and basic behavioral rules. 

While it acts as a pragmatic guide for social organization, it is highly dynamic. Individual perceptions and societal shifts constantly influence, and are influenced by, this overarching shared framework. Ultimately, this collective agreement is what holds communities together."

The Jesus K.I.S.S. Truth That Sets You Free?

 

"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free," (John 8:32)

Like all the posts in this 2026 series of my personal efforts to make lived-experience sense of the story I raised with. This one continues the theme of Jesus Second Coming Allegory of the Perceptive Mind? Using the K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid) principle to circle back to the existential questions, asked in the first post in this series. About the personal development of: The Christ-Mind Awareness of a Simple Truth? A primal truth about human languages that arguably hides in plain sight? And an unseen truth about human behavior that arguably underpins the historical development of the Jesus story?

As I continue my efforts to understand and articulate the undeniable truths of the story, especially the universally applicable meaning of the word Christ. Which for me personally, after decades of exploring the light of 21st-century science revelations, so to speak. Has convinced me that the "anointed one" meaning of the word Christ, is universally applicable to the biologically anointed mind of we biologically conceived homo sapiens. 

And that the K.I.S.S nature of truth that sets each and every individual human being free is twofold. 1. A simple truth about the nature of language. 2. A simple truth about the subconsciously orchestrated and functionally automatic nature of human behavior. A simple truth about the reality of language and how it covers-up the primal nature of truth, we both see and don't see, to paraphrase Jesus. And a simple truth about human behavior that explains the historical development of the Jesus' story and the pragmatic reason for teaching people parables of awakening.

This is why I speak to them in parables: “Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand, (Matthew 13:13).

So this post is about the pragmatic truth of why Jesus' taught parables, and the universally applicable meaning of the word Christ. Filtered through the K.I.S.S. Principle of keep it simple stupid, as the universal way we human beings derive our sense of truth and falsehood? With my increasingly firm belief that a twofold truth about being human underpins the story of Jesus. And a simple-truth that literally hides in plain sight, is one reason for the cryptic nature of Biblical verses. 

Jesus Second Coming Allegory of the Perceptive Mind?

"This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world

for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come," (Matthew 24:14).

"And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and

the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea," (Revelation 21:1).

This post continues the theme of: Jesus Spiritual Diagnosis of Our Subconscious Reactivity? By asking the question, can the Christian idea of Jesus' second coming, be understood as a storytelling allegory of the perceptive mind? A second coming of the mind, all human beings can experience? If we realize the core reason for Jesus' teaching parables of awakening, and the twin purpose of the whole Jesus story? As a reality-wise oriented story about "how" the "sounds-like" nature of language, shapes our human politics of experience & perceptions of reality? 

Specifically; the universal way language makes human beings feel like we are more conscious of reality, than we actually are. And that this simple truth lies at the heart of his parables of awakening teachings, and his prophecy of an eventual end to our species perceptual confusion. As alluded to in the "good news" and the "new heaven and a new earth" quotations above, demonstrating the twin purpose of the Jesus' story? As 1. The politics of human experience? 2. The perception experience of being human?

The Historical Purpose of the Jesus Story?

This subheading section seeks to differentiate the public relations and personal experience aspects of the Jesus story, and its historical purpose as prophecy. As a "reality-wise" prophecy about our personal experience of perception, and our interpersonal politics of experience. Which in my experience has involved differentiating the biologically "receptive" and psychologically "projective" qualities of my human form of consciousness. And noticing how this process aligns with ancient reality-wise sayings and stories about being human, regardless of place or race. Which I firmly believe is clearly demonstrated in the biblical quotations above, when we understand the "sounds-like" nature of language.

Jesus Spiritual Diagnosis of Our Subconscious Reactivity?

This post continues the theme of: Jesus Spiritual Diagnosis of Our Semiconscious Reality? Which continued the existential theme of: Jesus Unpalatable Truth About Our Human Behavior? And involves the simple proposition that the recursive nature of human languages makes we humans feel like we are more conscious of reality, than we actually are. That this simple truth is the key to understanding the Jesus' story's understanding of the universal nature of our human predicament, and its practical advice for experiencing self-transcendence and a second coming of your mind. Especially the universally applicable advice: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me," (Luke 9:23). And its cryptic, yet practical advice to self-cross-examine, the reality of our personal experience of being human, in my experience developed opinion.

After so many years of following the story told advice, (as this blog demonstrates) to notice the nature of cosmic truth, 3 times every day before the cock crows, so to speak. In my effort to self-transcend the rationalizing-reality nature of my experience conditioned mind, and its consensus-reality fallacy, of linguistic reification. Please consider with your intellect & body-wise contemplation, this intro to footnote 1 and read the footnote if you feel inclined:

Linguistic reification is the process of using language to treat an abstract concept—such as "justice," "society," or "fear"—as if it were a tangible, physical entity. It occurs when we turn dynamic, fluid processes into static "things" by giving them concrete nouns. Language naturally inclines toward reification, but it spans several different disciplines and contexts.

While in the context of Jesus spiritual diagnosis of our subconscious reactivity, please do the same with this intro to footnote 2:

Jesus offers a profound diagnosis of subconscious reactivity in Matthew 15:18-19, stating that "out of the heart come evil intentions". He teaches that our knee-jerk, unconscious reactions—like sudden anger, jealousy, or anxiety—are not random. Instead, they are the overflow of unhealed wounds and hidden motives stored in the inner life.

And please contemplate the possibility that subconscious reactivity is the universal nature of our human predicament? Beneath the experience conditioned nature of our reality-rationalizing minds? As you contemplate the truth or otherwise, of what Jesus is reported to have said about our subconscious reactivity:

Jesus Spiritual Diagnosis of Our Semiconscious Reality?

 

You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. ― Jesus of Nazareth

If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. ― Albert Einstein

This post continues the theme of: Jesus Unpalatable Truth About Our Human Behavior? And takes up the self-knowledge and self awareness challenge in both Albert Einstein and Jesus of Nazareth's comments. By exploring the simple truth of humanity's semiconscious reality, by confessing the simple truth that I cannot explain "how" I think, talk, & walk, as an adult human being. How about you? Like me, can you consciously explain "what it is" you are doing while thinking, talking, & walking? Yet, just like me, are you unaware of the subconsciously orchestrated reality of this quintessentially human behavior? 

While in the context of Jesus' "you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free," and Albert Einstein's “everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.” If we talked face to face, would we agree that our human form of consciousness, involves the conscious & subconscious nature of experience? And if we admitted to each other that we simply cannot explain the subconscious nature of "how" we perform the experience of being human? Would this simple truth lead us to a self-experienced understanding of Jesus' spiritual diagnosis of our semiconscious reality? As the oldest truth about our reality, known to humanity?

As explored in the post: The Felt & Unfelt Reality of Our Human Existence? And would this simple and oldest truth about our human reality, inspire you to reimagine the historical purpose & intention of the Jesus story?  And why the natural philosophers of an Axial-age period in human history, developed their parables of awakening? And in the context of both Einstein & Jesus comments about the truth of our human understanding of our own reality. I ask the Google AI this question: "did the natural philosophers of an Axial-age period in human history, develop parables of awakening?" And I insert the intro to the AI response & footnote 1 for your intellect's consideration and your body-wise contemplation.

"Yes, the natural philosophers and spiritual thinkers of the Axial Age (roughly 8th to 3rd centuries BCE) developed profound parables and allegories of awakening. During this period of immense intellectual and cognitive shifts, thinkers across Eurasia began moving away from relying strictly on myths, ritual sacrifices, and localized tribal gods. Instead, they focused on individual consciousness, self-transcendence, and personal awakening." Please see the full footnote.

Jesus Unpalatable Truth About Our Human Behavior?

 

Therefore speak I to them in parables, because seeing, they see not, 

and hearing, they hear not, neither do they understand, (Matthew 13:13).

This post continues the theme of: The Felt & Unfelt Reality of Our Human Existence? By suggesting that the story of Jesus known today, is based on a far older understanding of the maturity challenge of our human species. As the clearly evident challenge to become a fully mature sentient species, that we see in the world today. And clearly evident in Jesus' concise statement about why he taught parables. Awakening parables about the unpalatable truth of our human behavior? As explored in the post: Balanced Consciousness & Ancient Prophecy Words?

About the simple truth fact that all our consensus reality words, are not the reality of the world. And how the subconsciously orchestrated and functionally automatic nature of our adult behaviors collude with the recursive nature of language. To make us feel like we are more conscious of the nature of reality, than we actually are. Which this post argues is the oldest most unpalatable truth known to our species, and is paradoxically denied by the subconscious orchestration of our adult behavior.

Yet proven by the undeniable fact that no human being can explain the unseen & largely unfelt reality of how we think, talk, & walk, as a sentient species. As the subconsciously orchestrated nature of our behavior, sees us unwittingly conflate the reality of communication, with reality comprehension. Which can be deconstructed, to use a term popular in spiritual but not religious circles, of online communications and website manifestations. To differentiate our intellectual form of reality comprehension from our embodied form of reality comprehension.

The Felt & Unfelt Reality of Our Human Existence?

This blog post is another in my ongoing series about the personal and entirely private experience, the English language uses to word consciousness to describe. And continues my exploration of how human languages simultaneously describe & disguise the true nature of our own reality and the reality of the world, we sighted humans see. With this DeepAI generated image, arguably representing a picture worth a thousand words, about the felt and unfelt reality of our existence in time. As I continue the theme of the previous post titled: Balanced Consciousness & Ancient Prophecy Words?

I mean, why did the large language model AI chose to frame the word prompt; "the felt & unfelt reality of existence," in this particular way? Why the jet-black image of a human being, presumably standing upon a hilltop & facing the sun? Why does a visual awareness of the sun, appear to be obscured by clouds? Is this image metaphorical or allegorical, of our human form of consciousness & the reality of our existence in time? 

And in the context of the felt & unfelt nature of reality, does this image represent our conscious unawareness of our own reality & the earth-turning reality of our existence in time? Is it the reality of the earth's constant rotation in the darkness of space, that creates our visual experience of the sun appearing above a horizon, as depicted in this image. And are we capable of either feeling what's happening in the cosmic reality of space, or in the biological reality of our brain's capacity to manifest this visual experience? 

Balanced Consciousness & Ancient Prophecy Words?

 

This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world

for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come, (Matthew 24:14).

As we watch the news of war in the middle east, and contemplate unthinkable fears of a third world war ending to civilization as we know it. Which has many religiously minded people questioning whether current events are clear signs of an end times prophecy. Is the good news prophecy above, about a supernatural being and his supernatural father, or the natural awakening experience of ordinary people?

Is there a clear perceptual confusion about the original meaning of words like apocalypse, and our human perceptions of reality? And are our human systems of belief, still ludicrously partisan and dictated by the arbitrary nature of language, and the existential lottery of our biological conception? 

As a speaking species, are we confused by the great gift & curse, of our adaptive behavioral capacity for language? And still living in denial about the way the recursive nature of language makes us feel like we are more conscious of reality, than we actually are? Still fearing exposure of our undeniable self-ignorance, and the simple truth that no human being can explain "how" we think, talk, & walk? 

Sure, we can articulate "what" we are doing, when performing these quintessential human behaviors. But is the "how" of human behavior still an unasked question, generally speaking? No matter how well educated we are, or research field we work in? And is the perceptual problem inherent in language actually compounded and maintained by our systems of education?
