Conversion As A Revelation Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Conversion As A Revelation

Rating: 5.0


Conversion is primarily an unselfing.
The individual is in his own little world.
He is controlled by the deep seated
Instincts of Self-preservation.

The universe is organized around
his own personality as a centre.
Conversion is the larger world-consciousness
Pressing in on the individual consciousness.

Often it breaks in suddenly
and becomes a great new revelation.

tony, just read this. i have never seen the word unselfing used, but it's perfect here. and if it's your invention, congratulations! i can affirm what you say here from my experience which, from reading, parallels the experience of others. one of the things that came to mind is the parallel from the medieval view of the universe with the earth at center to our sun-centered understanding now. another thing that came to mind which you express as He is controlled by the deep seated Instincts of Self-preservation is exactly what i understand the bible defines as sin. its opposite is faith, i.e., trusting God for our security. hoping this finds you well in all ways, glen
