| C16.2 | Like all of the myriad of identities one may claim while activating a human body, being Christ is an identity too. It is a true identity and is the only true identity. All other identities are based in separation. Like teenagers who frequently change their identities based on their interests, values, peer community, and what they support or disavow, adults do the same thing but perhaps less frequently. The identity of Christ is an identity based in unity. Unity with everything and everyone with complete neutrality and unconditional love as the guide is a good way to describe Christ experience. There are no two alike as they are extremely individualized. Compare this to the ego’s attempt at unity. They do it through conformity and wanting to belong. Even non-conformists are conformists when you take a close look, but not the Christ collective. It realized that the world’s identities are something it has outgrown. Christ only conforms to love. It doesn’t need or want the world’s approval. |
