Matthew 26:32 Meaning But After I Am Raised Up

But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.

What does Matthew 26:32 mean?

Galilee is a word meaning circuit, the electrical circuit of the brain, and to go there after rising is the whole aim of the awakened force. Once the energy has died to the lower self and risen again, it moves upward into the neural circuit of the head, the higher state of consciousness where the true self already waits ahead of the faculties.

Galilee is a word meaning circuit, the electrical circuit of the brain, and to go there after rising is the whole aim of the awakened force. Once the energy has died to the lower self and risen again, it moves upward into the neural circuit of the head, the higher state of consciousness where the true self already waits ahead of the faculties.

To go before them is the risen power leading the way into that circuit, arriving in the brain before the ordinary mind can follow. What religion hears as a meeting in a far country is the current of awakened life entering the wiring of the head and lifting a person into an advanced state.

Live Matthew 26:32 today

  1. Let one piece of self-importance drop today, a correction you want to make, credit you want taken. Something lighter moves in as soon as it goes.
  2. Go into a conversation without the version of yourself you usually perform. The real you is already waiting there ahead of the act.
  3. When you get passed over or overlooked today, feel the sting and let it die rather than defending it. What comes up on the other side is clearer than what you lost.

What in me has to end before the better part of me can get out in front?

The same truth in other traditions

Taoism · Zhuangzi

The one who has died to the small self arrives somewhere the ordinary mind has not yet reached. You cannot follow until you let that much go.

Hinduism · Katha Upanishad

There is a self seated higher than thought, and it is already there waiting when the seeker finally arrives. It goes ahead of the mind, not behind it.

Sufism · Rumi

He writes that he died as mineral and became plant, died as plant and rose as animal, and each death carried him a stage further. What drops away is only what could not make the next step.
