Nugget #98 – Physical unity: Looking at the words


In the beginning we mention some words that our TNK uses.  The list is not inclusive but is a starting point.  Before we begin, I hope you all figured this out; we need to be thinking of these words for the EGO’s point of view.  Lets take a look at the words with the ego in mind.

Earth:  This is the accumulation of our desires for the physical realm.  All that is required for our physical existence in found on Earth.  Since the ego focuses on the physical it looks to accumulate more than it needs.  It will seek to secure more food, water, and etcetera than it needs.  It does not like to share and as such it will exclude others as much a possible.  Thus it seeks wealth then power from the provisions of the earth.  Ego centered and object of ego is physical satisfaction that can never be satisfied.

Land:  The Hebrew word for “Earth” and “Land” is the same.  Thus this too is out our desires for the physical for the satisfaction of the ego.  However, often this is speaking of a more localized area of earth.  For instance, Israel is about overcoming the ego’s hold on a person.  Thus the land of Israel is a localized place in where the ego is not in control.

These words are descriptors of the state of the ego and its role in our existence.  Be assured this is part of the Creator’s plan and it will all work out at the end even though it does get a little rocky at times.
