Glastonbury, England- Holy Thorn cut down.

[guest66]

Hello, friends.

As you may know, I live in England. I received an email today from a friend who lives in Glastonbury (which many of you may recognise as a holy place...Jesus Christ is reputed to have visited with his Uncle, Joseph of Arimathea.) In Glastonbury, there is (or was...) a thorn tree which grew in the gardens of the Abbey, purported to have sprouted when Joseph of Arimathea stuck his staff in the ground after coming there following the Crucifixion. This Holy Thorn bloomed every Christmas and Easter for many years, and also became part of the legend of King Arthur.

But, on the evening of the eighth of December, somebody cruelly cut it down.




(Here, the Thorn is in the foreground, and the Tor in the background.)


I would like to ask you to pray for the iconic symbol of the town, even in its untimely demise.

Thank you.

Aum, peace, amen.

To consider the "lost years" of Jesus (the years not discussed in the New Testament), we may consider the range of most plausable possibilities by considering the trade routes of those times.   This represents a (very quick) historical analysis of the modes of physical transportation around the time of the beginning of the Common Era. 1 CE. (i.e. - 1 AD) 

It is noted that today's Christian scholars and masses will respond in rather violent opposition to any interpretation for the "lost years" except that Jesus simply milled around the local region.   This opposition seems rooted in (irrational) fear that if Jesus traveled to other regions seeking other enlightened, "wise men", or to avail himself of the Divine manifest within diversity of human history and cultures -- Well, mass of Christians falsely feel this is to say Christianity is not of the Jewish lineage, but is a deriviative of other religions -- and this seems to threaten many Christians of today's world (who have been dogmatically deluded to see division in races, cultures, and religions by the Empires (Organizations, Church, and State World Powers).   A renasaince is most often the result of fresh "connections" and innovations sprouting from the fertile soil of freshly available, diverse set of ideas and knowledge.    It is lost to the dogmatized masses that Each and All core messages (of religion) are essentially the same, only speaking in different voices as needed to re-manifest a more living word of God among men in each age and culture.    Jesus came predominantly to play out the (most visible) drama thru a specific culture (Hebrew / Jewish), but the message was for all, and likely had many sub-plots and story-lines.

Hi Namaste2All, Your view is much more rational then anything like wondering around the local area and pounding nails after his big debut in the temple having said the scriptures have been fulfilled.
