I haven't seen it, no. Could you elaborate, thanks.
To me, what I see is something representing both the top, and bottom, of the whole spectrum of all being and becoming, along with the resurrection life as an evolutionary phenomenon or principal of life meeting life (wherein death is swallowed up) and as a domain of new possibility. It's like something fundamental to the real creative process of differentiation (in breadown) and reintegration (wholeness, and rediscovery of a new self / new creation). It's not unlike the one, at the very beginning, allowing himself to be blown to pieces on the basis of a caculated gambit (always beginning with the end in mind) that in the fullness time, he would rediscover himself through his own creation, in this case, through the son - but the vectors involved, which culminated in the fulfillment of prophecy framing his conception, birth and great work by signs in the heavens (see star of Bethlehem video series posted earlier in this thread) reveals something even MORE astonishing - in a level of precision-engineered control over the whole of all creation, pointing to a single human lifetime and Great Work which defies the imagination (I can almost hear God's laughter over my dismay).
Never again in human history will that precise confluence of events, at all levels, reoccur, and so at all levels it really is a passover of human life and history, but ours is the first generation to be in a position to decode this and run the process backwards in time to those events, which include a perfect conjunction of Jupiter and Venus at conception, a triple retrograde (three times back and forth motion ie: three kings) conjunction of Venus over Regulus (king) at birth precisely nine months later (with Virgo clothed in the sun ar sunrise, a crescent moon under her feet), followed by a full moon lunar exclips (blood red moon) coinciding with passover 33 years after that. That won't be repeated again in human history. If that weren't enough we have his teachings, his humor, his character, charm, actions, and then this "Great Work" to ponder over as to its true meaning and significance, which if it means anything at all, by extension means everything.
It's just too much to take! - we've been punk'd by God!

The Humbled and Exalted Christ
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
~ Philippians 2:5-11

Last year I was unlucky enough to suffer a manic episode with a psycosis that lasted for 6 weeks, and ended up hospitalising me for 7 days in maximum security at Hobart Royal Hospital.
At the time I was jobless, and it was a long dark depressive winter in Tasmania, and my partner went on a holiday with her family for 2 months around Europe. Around 2 weeks in I became completely fixated on ATS and global new's events to such a degree that I didn't sleep for 5 or so days. I [SNIP] and ate next to nothing other than macdonalds and junk food.
www.abovetopsecret.com...
I created this thread while I was fairly manic and dillusional. It's actually very easy to tell I wasn't well. As the thead goes on I get worse and worse.
The day the cracks began to appear I arrived at the airport to greet my partners family, and realised that I had odd shoes on. The decent from there was very slow and very steady.
I began waking at 3:33 everymorning in cold sweats, I became irratable and very short tempered with my friends and my partner. At this point I began listening to binaural beats in my sleep and was staring at a candle for 30 mins every day (to crack the pineal).
One day I stood up from the computer, I got dressed into my old work clothes from my previous Insurance job and began doorknocking all local business' with an amount of confidence and fearlessness that is just not me or my normal personality.
This is where things get a bit weird.
My perception of time had slowed right down. Time felt slower. I could have a discussion with 3 different people at once, and remember where I was in each conversation. I could focus on individual rain drops while driving 120k'sph while it felt like I was driving 60. Music and colour became amazingly vivid. I felt invincible. I was fast, organised, confident and on top of the world. But the body can only handle this state for so long...
I began believing almost anything that was presented to me. Suffering from delusions of granduer, might have had a short period of believing I was Jesus. Would not shower or drink water under the belief that fluoride was killing me slowly, so I was looking dirty and skinny and very wired.
I would see syncronicity in almost everything I did, song track time lengths & lyrics, 11:11, 2:22 and so on and so on.
My partner left for work one morning and I packed my bags and left. I drove my car to the airport and flew to Townsville where I stayed at the Jupiter hotel. I told noone where I had gone. I spent and gave away my entire life savings. I gave $500 to an aboriginal lady down the main street. I gave my raybans to a kid. I donated to every single charity I could find.
I somehow latched onto the new age theory about the electro magnetic grid framwork of earth that is to be completed this year to ascend to the next dimension. (lol)
I spotted a black hawk helicopter flying up home hill in townsville. I dressed in all red, and ran to the top of the mountain to do battle with the evil elites trying to complete the final piece of this grid that would have the entire human race enslaved. Red so that the martians would think I was one of them... hmm.
I climbed to the top of the mountain, and then jumped the barbedwire fence, and then climbed up the radio tower, so damn high I wasn't even scared of heights like usual. I took a large metal support bar from the dish on top and began carrying it down the mountain. Before long I am walking down the side of a tropical mountain in the pitch black dark in shorts and t shirt. Enormous Spider webs shining in the moonlight in front of me at every turn (normally very fearful of spiders) not a problem in this state. I managed to safely find my way down the wrong side of the mountain, that had many cliff's and shear drops. I took the peice of antenna back to jupiters hotel and was detained by hotel staff trying to sneek the 10ft support bar into the elevator.
Anyway, a week or so later I was found in a strangers back yard in only my undies rolling around in the dirt. I was eating worms and crying quietly to myself. The nice owner told me I would be ok, and called the ambulance. Next thing I know 2 police officers grab me and hold me down. I jumped up and push one officer to the ground and turned to battle the second. I remember clearly at this time looking at the officers gun, and making a move to grab it. I had managed to convince myself that these police were corrupt reptillians coming for me because I was the antichrist.
Anways, being forcfully medicated in a straight jacket and then pissing myself in my sleep was the most sobering experiece in my entire life. I managed to slam dunk a basketball ring outside (im 5ft 10) and climb through the hoop, then along the window frames to the window, jumped out a 2 story window and landed on the footpath amongst people. I just ran. I made it back to my partner, who after an hour or two of dicussion, convinced me to go back to hospital.
Anyways, Today one year on I am no longer depressed, I have an excellent full-time job, I'm healthy and my partner managed to keep loving me through the entire thing. I guess im pretty lucky.
Very interested in hearing some other members stories about mental illness. I figure that the only way to help remove the stigma surrounding mental health is to have healthy discussion about how it can happen and how to react when face to face with someone manic or suffereing from psycosis.
Just because your mentally ill doesn't make you dangerous. Just because your dangerous doesnt make you mentally ill.
Also if anyone is struggeling with depression or anxiety or bi-polar and are needing some advice I am here to answer anything.
Thanks for reading this far.

One tidbit was that the entire prophetic frame of the Bible (traversing many centuries) leading to him, pointed to him, but if that weren't enough, if you took the time to watch the Real Star of Bethlehem video series, you would see that his life was also framed by the cosmos, and that there were signs, one of which placed his work leading to the cross within the context of a precise schedule known well beforehand, both to himself and to his cousin John. It's all in the thread, and in the title of the thread. Of course he was trained, and enlightened, and born again from above, but there's more to his story than that, and more to his spirit, and the sorrowful wedge of his fated calling and destiny, much more to it than just another enlightened man. But with all that said, as he was called so too are we in following him as the authentic model of perfection and leadership of the right kind, which comes to serve and not to be served. "And as my father first sent me, even so send I you." But the student can never be and needn't be as great as the master. There is something extraordinary about Jesus which IS contained in that thread, and don't blame me for asking that people have to look for it and find it for themselves in discovery to really appropriate it's deeper meaning and significance. It can't be any other way, or I'm just casting pearls before swine, allowing the greatest fact of human history, to be trampled under foot by ignorant and hard-hearted people (no I don't mean you).
I've offered to answer any specific questions anyone might have, but no one's asking..
And to begin with, people would need to be willing to re-open their Bible and re-read the four Gospels with a newly inquisitive eye and a new type of understanding which my thread can help to bring about for those who will.
Would you be willing to sit down and re-read the Gospels again, as if for the first time? Are you really open-minded about Jesus?

God's Conspiracy is to blindside the wise, learned, mighty and noble...
...and most of you have been punk'd.
God first said He would do this through His prophet Isaiah who wrote in the 8th century BC...
"...behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid." Isaiah 29:14
Paul quotes from Isaiah in his first letter to Corinth (one of the undisputed letters of Paul)...
"For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent (learned, intelligent). 20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?" 1 Corinthians 1:19-20
He did it by turning the human notions of wisdom on its head...
"For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:" 1 Corinthians 1:26-28
God designed a way to reveal Himself that would be rejected by the world's best and brightest...
...and it is still blindsiding those who think they are special because of wealth, education or power.
How did God punk most of you?
He revealed Himself as a babe, conceived and born in scandal...
...as a man He healed the sick, sided with the oppressed and raised the dead...
...He opposed the religious and secular elite...
...who executed Him for telling them who He really was...
...but He then turned this corporate murder into a victory over death itself.
Paul said it like this...
"...the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God...the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men."
Your responses will reveal whether you have been punk'd by God or not.

It's like something fundamental to the real creative process of differentiation (in breakdown) and reintegration (in wholeness, and rediscovery of a new self / new creation). It's not unlike the one, at the very beginning, allowing himself to be blown to pieces on the basis of a caculated gambit (always beginning with the end in mind) that, in the fullness time, he would rediscover himself through his own creation, and in this case, through the son - but the vectors involved, which culminated in the fulfillment of prophecy framing his conception, birth and great work, by signs in the heavens (see star of Bethlehem video series posted earlier in this thread) reveals something even MORE astonishing - in a level of precision-engineered control over the whole of all creation, pointing to a single human life and Great Work, this defies the imagination (I can almost hear God's laughter over my dismay).

You were made in miraculous ways.
Born with Love and destined to its fate.
Your mind's eye will seek an imminent change
Where emotions evoke light from effervescent rays.
I realize all of what you've been through.
Knocked off your feet you stand again.
I've voiced my dreams to foil defeat,
And offer my help when you need it...
