Notes

In the Catechism of the Catholic Church the Holy Spirit is a teacher that helps us understand revelation."All the faithful share in understanding and handing on revealed truth. They have received the anointing of the Holy Spirit, who instructs them53 and guides them into all truth."[1] Also "The divinely revealed realities, which are contained and presented in the text of Sacred Scripture, have been written down under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit."[2]

"Descent of the Holy Spirit" is the Christian conceptualization of Connection

The goal of Authentic Spirituality is Connection with Highest Self, i.e., the "descent" of the Holy Spirit (i.e. your highest self) into the Physical Unit

Many passages in the bible refer to the descent of/connection with the holy spirit. e.g., Luke 3-21-22.

When you are connected, you are filled with the Holy Spirit, e.g., Acts 4:8, Acts 4:25.

When you are full of the Holy Spirit, when you have a strong Connection, you experience Connection Events, e.g., you see visions of glory, Acts 7:55


The goal of the spiritual activist is to encourage/intend that everyone should "receive" the Holy Spirit Acts 8:14-15, i.e. become better connected.

Even something simple as being around somebody with a strong connection can facilitate individual and even mass connection "While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message "Acts 10:32-55.

As great as the "descent" of the Holy Spirit is, people can resist. “You stiff-necked people! Your hearts and ears are still uncircumcised. You are just like your ancestors: You always resist the Holy Spirit!" Acts 7:51

The Physical Unit is a container for the Holy Spirit/Consciousness Corinthians 6:19.

The "Kingdom of God" is not about materials things, not even about prosperity, it is about strong connection. "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" Romans 24:17

Connection isn't something only for the "chosen people" ("circumsised believers", i.e. Jews), it is for everybody. "While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles. For they heard them speaking in tongues[a] and praising God." Acts 10:44-46

The Christian bible is a much more interesting read when you understand the descent of the Holy Spirit as symbolizing connection with [[Consciousness]
