Truth, beauty, and goodness are what our Universal Father’s has made, is and does. He is perfect, he is the ultimate artist and lover of all. He created God-Conscious creatures, asking them to become family.
If this world, of which we are formed, is not meant (in the primordial, primeval sense) to be our “home,” Paul, then why does the Deity demand, simultaneously: 1. That we are meant to fully endure it and yet appropriately detach from it? 2. That *we* (as a species) are responsible, in a *primordial* manner for the suffering/conflict/horror/random violence of the entire world/cosmos. 3. That we adhere to a proliferation of theologically contradictory and incompatible doctrines, instructions, and ideas with self-loathing obedience. Your revelation, in this video, mentioning the “Christ who came into [your] life” speaks wonders, quite apart from any separate issue of Orthodoxy. You have met the Person. Pardon my questioning, but the question unasked is forever unanswered and we were clearly formed (of this dust, of these stars) to question. Quoi qu’il en soit, I cherish the Protecting Veil videos and instructional materials, revere Orthodoxy with every fiber of my being, and am interested in acquainting myself with your work.

Thank you. This concept of rootedness is profound. I am seeking to build Orthodox community around me and this was a missing piece.
Love that saying .. You can see the Creator in the creation !

What you are seeking exists. Read Not In His Image by Gnostic scholar John Lamb Lash.
Paul, its time you read Not In His Image by John Lamb Lash.
"This world at some level is not our home is the Orthodox claim". Isn't that the claim of all branches of Christianity?
