LAW OF THREE (64) Making One Out of Two


LAW OF THREE (64)

MAKING ONE OUT OF TWO

"When you are able to make two become one, the inside like
the outside, and the outside like the inside, the higher like
the lower, so that man is no longer male, and a woman,
female, but male and female a single whole. When
you are able to fashion an eye to replace an eye, and form
a hand in place of a hand, or a foot for a foot, making one
image supersede another -then you will enter in."

The Gospel of Thomas (22)

"When you are able to make two become one...then you will enter in."   This quote signals the path of action by way of the "construction" of a non dual world in which we can reside.

The task of the Triad is to make one:

Making one out of two is not a question of eliminating one of the two opposing forces (as for example in war) but by bringing them together into a relationship by the power of a third independent one, and giving them equal meaning and significance in a way that enables out of the two to make one.

Making one is the task of Love:

The well known statement: "love your enemies..." describes the nature of the reconciling force of Love.  Love is indivisible.. If we only 'love' our friends we do not know Love.  We find no use for our enemies.   We cannot evolve.  We cannot make one out of two.

The task of the Triad is to make meaning:

In the statement "I and my father are one", the third force is the meaning of the word father. Father brings into a relationship God and Me (I), giving rise to the form of One. Three distinct and mutually 'related' terms giving rise to a unit of meaning.

Raimon Panikkar's reflection:

The relation between God and man, therefore, instead of being one of pure transcendence (which does not admit any relation) is one of immanence. God is the transcendent mystery immanent in us. Hence there is a conviction common to different religions that someone that claims to have seen the transcendent God is not telling the truth...
It is in immanence that transcendence is discovered. We realise that we 'remain' in something that, being within us, is greater than we are, transcends us.

Immanence is the link which transcends the duality of God and Me and brings the unitive (triadic) experience of God in Me and I in God.
