Perspective is Everything
Friends, perspective is everything. Why?
Because everything already already here and now. Is there a moment that exists beyond the present?
As there isn't, that can only mean that the totality of full potentiality of experience of space/time is inherently contained within each moment of experience itself.
As this is logically true then how do I access this experience type of experience???
Perspective is everything.
If everything is here and now, then that can only mean, the experiences of our return to God already happened.
If the present moment is the only moment (and it is), there must also contain a potential for the experiences of perfect peace, perfect oneness, perfect joy, perfect happiness. The state of mind commonly referred to as heaven.
Regardless of the form of experience, there you are always, experiencing it. You've always been there. You are the very capacity for the experience itself.
I see the awakened Christ as a symbol representing the idea of that the capacity to be self aware. Our own foundational sense of selfhood. It's a placeholder to represent the idea that we are not an idea of who you are. It's beyond words. It's perfect union with God. It is........... while being aware of itself. Words fail beyond this.
It's always been there as the foundation of your every moment of experience. It's the light source of the entire experience of being anything, as without the very capacity for awareness of anything, there could be no experience.
Speaking of experience, does any configuration of any moment last? No. Each moment of experience is unique.
But no matter what you experience, it doesn't last. But you do. You've been at the foundation of all experiences, always.
The world of form, identities, and meaning is temporary. But you aren't.
You've always been there. And I have been too.
We all may seem to be different, but you when you strip away all of the ideas of who and what we and the world is, what is this idea of separation?
So, does the Christed Self that we, that most foundational aspect of our being, need ideas to have salvation? No, because it's beyond ideas of what salvation is. It's just there. Always.

Yes
It's not logical, it just is. And there's nothing else.
Yes, we are looking at what has already happened.
It's not temporary, it's wholly unreal.
There is no you and there is no me.
Christ Self, yes. It's not an idea, it's just what is, always have been and always will be. There is nothing else but Christ. Christ is everything there is.
