The Resurrection of Jesus: “An Archetypal Map of Transformation”

– “Older Light” by Dan Hillier


The following by “Craig (Rei Rei)” serves as a fitting follow-up to my Easter Sunday post, Christ Consciousness: The Inner Flame of Divine Self. I again have Beau Childs to thank for bringing this piece to my attention via Facebook. Thanks, Beau!

As [we] embrace the Easter holidays, [let us] focus today on the sacred process encoded within the human journey, one that transcends religion and speaks directly to the architecture of the soul. The resurrection story of Jesus is not merely a historical or theological event: it is an archetypal map of transformation. It reveals the pathway through which the human being sheds the density of the lower nature and awakens its innate divinity.

Your lower nature is not “bad,” but it is limited. It is conditioned by fear, attachment, illusion, and the perceptual constraints imposed by the space-time matrix. These veils are powerful, designed to immerse consciousness fully into the human experience. Yet they also obscure your true essence: your eternal, multi-dimensional self.

The resurrection begins when the false self is allowed to die. This death is symbolic, yet deeply real. It is the surrender of identities, wounds, karmic imprints, and inherited belief systems that keep you bound to limitations. It is the willingness to release control and step beyond the known to embrace the unknown, even when the ego resists. In this surrender, something ancient within you begins to stir. Your true self has never been lost: only dormant.

It waits beneath layers of self-forgetfulness, beneath the noise of the conditioned mind. When the lower self dissolves, the soul rises. This is the resurrection: the re-emergence of your divine nature into conscious awareness. It is not granted from outside but activated from within. To embody Christ Consciousness is to live as this awakened self.

It is to perceive beyond separation, to act from unity, and to anchor higher intelligence into physical reality. In this state, you are no longer confined by the illusions of space-time, rather, you become a bridge between dimensions, a living expression of the Infinite Spirit beyond creation.
