Let these sayings sink down into your ears; for the Son of Man shall be delivered into the hands of men." Be not as those who have eyes that see not and ears that hear not . Let these revelations sink deep into your ears, for after the Son (idea) is conceived man with his false values (reason) will attempt to explain the why and wherefore of the Son's expression, and in so doing will rend him to pieces. ... For thousands of years man has -been told, "I AM the resurrection and the life." "No manifestation cometh unto me save I draw it," but man will not believe it. He prefers to believe in causes outside of himself. The moment that which was not seen becomes seen, man is ready to explain the cause and purpose of its appearance. Thus the Son of Man (idea desiring manifestation) is constantly being destroyed at the hands (reasonable explanation or wisdom) of man.
This teaching emphasizes the importance of deeply internalizing spiritual truths ('let these sayings sink down into your ears') and not allowing human reason or external explanations ('hands of men') to dissect and destroy the pure 'Son of Man' (the conceived idea or manifestation). Man's tendency to seek external causes for what appears undermines the truth that 'I AM' (awareness) is the sole cause of all manifestation.
