Jesus and Enlightened People

Matthew 7:13, 14 was simply Jesus' common-sense observation, painfully obvious, that most Souls are not finding the Way, usually due not to deliberate evil, but to distractions and/or ignorance.

This popular way is the "way to destruction," because it leads not only to the "destruction," although temporary, of inner spirituality and parts of the Soulmind, but also leads to death after death, in life after life.

Jesus recognized as the only real life what he called "timeless life," a state or condition of Mind that occurs with enlightenment. The Greek adjective aionian has often, usually, been mistranslated "everlasting." But Jesus did not promise "everlasting" life as the reward of those who trod his path; he knew that all life is already, intrinsically everlasting. Instead, he promised this special Mindstate of "timeless" being. There have been "few" who have found this path, few of the Enlightenment Tradition, Way of Love, or mysticism, all through the centuries. Alas, after so many centuries, this is still the case.
