Messianism is the belief in a messiah, a savior or redeemer. Many religions have a messiah concept, including the Jewish Messiah, the Christian Christ, the Muslim Mahdi and Isa (Arabic name for Jesus), the Buddhist Maitreya, the Hindu Kalki and the Zoroastrian Saoshyant. The state of the world is seen as hopelessly flawed beyond normal human powers of correction, and divine intervention through a specially selected and supported human is seen as necessary. Quoting: observation [ link to en.wikipedia.org] Quoting: aether But, messiah and God King would be two different things. Messiah's do not desire to control, only show how it is possible to advance certain states of suffering. God King is more to the taste of control. It feels like one is 'real' (touched by higher states of awareness, etc), and one is false, using the idea of being touched to control underlings. Quoting: Septenary Man that`s good /z\ teachers not rulers thus they say things that makes sense to all and in doing so remove the need to rule is that right remembering the original motive of a god king is their existence prompts golden age lifestyle for all thus messiah must provide the same state of golden age their way maybe it is information that is the key Quoting: aether Yes. As it always probably should of been this way. Meritocracy (democracy) with no money (lobbyist) influence. All persons being teachers and students of life with none greater than another. Sovereign and "anonymous". Think in terms of the concept of 12 step recovery society. Look at "the promises" and the numbers who have awakened from the depths of personal hell and who have reported experiencing heaven on earth as a result of undertaking these self gnostic steps similar to other paths. This "program" was channeled for all beings as an opportunity to higher consciousness not just the "addicts" and "co-dependents." The 8 fold path and other paths work too. The gist is pick one. The Abrahamic religions are in need of this to set their people free and to stay relevant in coming times. With the information society as it is people will leave unless given alternatives to higher forms of being. Additions/alterations to the 12 steps would constitute looking at all attachments as an impediment to higher consciousness and a central focus on the HOW (honesty, open-mindedness, willingness) as well as more information to ensure the awakened state is maintained and expanded perhaps IMO. Many reach this state in the programs but backslide overtime. Instinctually there are changes to body, mind, spirit and more information should be made available as to the changes that occur, explanation of what occurs, and ways to maintain this higher consciousness in an expanded framework are needed (meditation techniques, breathing, grounding, food consumption, goal manifestation, etc.)
