Default The Virgin Birth Explained

What I'm going to say will be brand new to most of you.

When you hear of a spiritual master being born of a virgin, what does it mean?

It has nothing to do with biology. It is symbolic of an adavanced soul who incarnates by their own desire to do so.

Most people are reborn time and time again because of the karmic debt they've racked up since first coming here. A spiritually advanced soul has little debt left or none at all. They have no obligation to return to this world because of their debt.

When such a soul elects to return to earth to help others, it is said to be a virgin birth.

Furthermore, ressurection is not a literal biological event. It is symbolic of death to the world (fear/desire or good/evil or whatever) and rebirth as an awakened being.

Open mouth. Insert cigar.

Good to know the smog of northern VA has not affected your ability to see.
