Now, Crucifixion is either a demonstration of the most horrible failure in the world or the greatest success in the world. It has been proven that the seed that fell, which is called the Word of God – and the Word of God is God, and that is God Himself! “In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.” The Word was the seed that fell into humanity. That is called the Crucifixion. Well, it rose, and it continues to rise, because all the sons will rise. God now demonstrates His creative power, that He can “die” and rise again. So, He “dies” in man. “I am crucified with Christ,” said Paul. “Nevertheless I live, yet not I but Christ who lives in me;

The Crucifixion is not a historical failure but God's greatest success: the deliberate act of the 'Word of God' (God Himself) as a divine seed burying itself within humanity. This 'death' in man is followed by a continuous 'rising' as all the 'sons' (humanity) awaken, demonstrating God's creative power to 'die' and resurrect within each individual.

The Art Of Dying

I will crucify myself, for God crucified himself in me that I might live. But now I must nail myself upon the thing I desire and, remaining faithful to it, lift it up as God nailed himself upon me. (the present body) is believing himself a man called Neville, giving Neville the same power that is his (but keyed low) in the hope that I will lift up the power to bigger things in my world to which I can nail myself, and so lift them up. There is no possibility of man making his dream alive unless He nails himself to this cross that is man. We are living because God nailed himself to us. Now man, keyed low, yielding to other states and not to what the senses dictate, becomes one with the state and nails himself to it (fixes himself in the state through emotion and feeling) and then he will be lifted up. For crucifixion comes before resurrection. Crucifixion without resurrection would be unthinkable; it would be the utter triumph of tyranny.

Crucifixion is a metaphysical act of 'nailing oneself' to the desired state, becoming one with it through intense emotion and feeling, and remaining faithful to this assumption despite sensory evidence. This complete yielding to the dream is the necessary precursor to its 'resurrection' or manifestation in the physical world. God's crucifixion in man means God (Imagination) limits itself to human form, allowing man to then 'crucify' himself to his desires to lift them up.
