"I suppose that makes sense," said Tony. "I can see now why she needed a separate development stream for sex that represents the sunrise. We are dealing with a totally different ball of wax here, which is much more complex, but reflects what has been established in the first development stream. It seems to build on the simple concept and takes it further. Out of this unfolds a different context of the same notion of completeness."
"Helen came up with a concept that corresponds with Mary's first development stream, that of the dawn," I said to Tony. "Helen described this aspect as 'our universal kiss'. I think she is right on the mark with this as a logical reflection of our universal marriage as human beings. Don't you agree? Like Tolkien, Helen knew nothing about Mary's pedagogical structure, which hadn't been discovered in her time either. Nevertheless, Helen understood the dynamics of the truth that underlies all that is real about our being."
"Are you saying that Helen's concept of the universal kiss isn't sexual if it pertains to the first development stream?" Tony asked, almost joking. "Logically it shouldn't be primarily sexual, it should therefore be primarily reflecting universal affection. But shouldn't the sexual embrace reflect the same? Maybe it should, in the more profound context that the second development stream relates to. But what does this all mean, Pete? I hope you realized what you've done here, Pete. You've opened up a whole new raft of questions. What are the answers, Pete?"
"That's for you to figure out," I replied. "Explore your experiences and see if you can reach up from them to the fullness of the absolute completeness of the human being that unites us as one in universal marriage, and that sex represents in truth. I think if you get there, the universal marriage of all human beings to one-another comes to light as something quite wonderful, and sex even more so. Maybe that is how the answers to your questions emerge. Or maybe it is the other way around, that the fullness of sex cannot be understood without finding some answers in the first step along the way that deals with embracing one-another universally with a love that unfolds as an appreciation for something beautiful that we already have in our hearts. Isn't that the way you look at women? What you treasure in them comes from your own heart. If that treasure weren't there, you wouldn't regard them at all, would you? Or you would regard them as something outside of your sphere of being, isolated and cut off from you and one another and from the profound reality that we share, as Aristotle saw humanity, or Hobbes, or Nietzsche. Except those blind leaders, leading the blind, were far from being truthful about anything, maybe intentionally so. They were probably nothing more than 'hired assassins' in the mental realm, professional liars with their hands stretched out for the gold that their lies could earn them from the rulers of society, for which they sold their humanity to the 'devils' of the empires in an orgy of prostitution of the foulest sort."
Tony nodded now and then as I spoke. "Go on, go on, Pete," he said whenever I stopped. "Tell me more about Mary's thing."
"Right, the second column deals with sex," I said in is business-like manner, getting back to main topic. "That column is related to the sunrise. That's where sex is first referenced. This column is also related to physical and economic development, and the development of the highest image of man. That image reflects the vision of a Revelator named John, from the very early stages of the Christian era. This John spoke in metaphor about a 'woman' clothed with the sun, having the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars."
"And that relates to sex, you say?" Tony replied.
"Isn't it obvious?" I asked. "The light of the sun is a brilliant white. It contains all the colors of the rainbow in perfect balance. We see in it a profound completeness. You diminish any single color of it, even to a degree, and the white is gone, it becomes corrupted by incompleteness. The more we confine our mental perception by small-minded thinking, the greater the corruption becomes of what we behold of the reality of the universe. In Tolkien's saga, whoever wears the ring, totally disappears from sight. There is not a trace left of anything real under the spell of total corruption. But the Revelator saw the opposite. He saw a woman, a sexual human being, clothed with the full spectrum of the sun, being enveloped by it, being that light itself in perfect white in which nothing is diminished. That is what Mary has put on top of the second column in which she first deals with the development of a higher sense of sex. So you see, there is a connection in which sex and the sun come to light as synonymous symbols of completeness."
