What the Hell is a Buddha-Christ?

The source intelligence is the intelligence that powers all species and individual intelligence!

A Buddha-Christ is a personification of the source intelligence: an original, novel, spiritual-religious phenomenon that embraces all spiritual dimensions with a Buddha-Christ perspective on them all!

an inspiration I received as I experienced deeply, journeyed deeply and thought deeply about the deeper realities of life; but first a definition of Buddha and Christ!

*Buddha is from Sanskrit, meaning awakened; akin to Sanskrit bodhi enlightenment Date: 1681

1: a person who has attained Buddhahood

2: a representation of Gautama Buddha

*Christ: From Middle English Crist, from Old English, from Latin Christus, from Greek Christos, literally, anointed. Date: before 12th century

1: MESSIAH

2: JESUS

3: an ideal type of humanity (*Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary, Merriam-Webster INC., Publishers, Springfield, Mass, 1986.)

Buddha means Awakened or enlightened, one who has awakened from the sleep of spiritual ignorance as in the case of the historical Buddha (Siddartha Gautama) the awakened one. Christ means anointed, one who is anointed with the love or grace of God or in the case of the historical Christ (Jesus The Nazarene) the anointed one.

Buddha and Christ are names for states of mind or being not just the names of particular historical persons. Spiritually, Buddha stands for wisdom and Christ for love.

What I'm about to say about a Buddha-Christ only applies to someone who is a 100% Buddha-Christ and would vary according to the level and degree of Buddha-Christness attained by the person experiencing it. A 100% Buddha-Christ would be completely awakened (wise) and completely anointed (loving).

If I'm an aspiring Buddha-Christ that means that I'm in the process of becoming fully awakened and fully anointed but not fully there yet! But awaken to what and anointed with what?

Anointed in the Judeo-Christian tradition means to anoint with the love and approval of God. Awakened in the eastern tradition means awakening to supreme transcendent wisdom and being. The spiritual meaning is receiving and experiencing total transcendent wisdom and love by awakening to them!

A Buddha-Christ has integrated within him or herself all of the qualities of Buddha and Christ but, is not Buddha or Christ but something more, something unique, something novel! (As when a mother and father produces a child who inherits the qualities of both parents, is similar to them, but also different from them!) A Buddha-Christ is a new thing, a 21st century thing!

Buddha and Jesus were personifications and actualizations of the source intelligence responding to needs of their times! But it's a brand new day! A brand new time! For a brand new way and a brand new mind!
