Human Development

Divine hosts

Description:
This is the realization that, whether good or bad, one is in dialogue with a host of colleagues from the past, the present and the future; when one senses one's self to be surrounded by a host which has become divine. It is like the League which transcends all of history, in Hermann Hesse's book "Journey to the East".
Context:
In the ICA New Religious Mode in the arena of knowing one's internal sociality (the life of meditation) the fourth formal aspect is one's experience of missional comradeship or of having a colleague. At the fourth phenomenological level, this occurs when a person is sustained by communion with people and events which serve as milestones for his consciousness.<
