Experience Christmas
Every year, the same strange thing occurs; society rushes in to drown that feeling in obligation, noise, buying, and performance.
Why is this the system when it’s supposed to represent a “birth?”
It exists because Christmas is not a historical anniversary.
It is a consciousness event.
And consciousness events are dangerous to systems built on control.
the virgin birth is not about biology
Scripture never defines “virgin” as sexual abstinence.
That interpretation is cultural, not textual.
In biblical language, virginity signifies purity, unoccupied space, and untouched ground—something not yet claimed, patterned, or overwritten.
The prophets use this symbolism repeatedly when describing Israel, Jerusalem, or consciousness returning to an uncorrupted state (Isaiah 37:22; Lamentations 2:13).
The Christmas narrative follows the same logic.
The virgin birth does not describe a gynecological miracle.
It describes pure consciousness giving rise to a new governing awareness.
This is why Jesus later teaches:
“Unless you become like little children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.”
(Matthew 18:3)
Children are not morally superior.
They are unconditioned.
That is virgin consciousness.
no room at the inn: the crowded mind cannot host the birth
Luke tells us there was “no room at the inn” (Luke 2:7).
That line is not incidental. It is diagnostic.
The “inn” represents the outer mind:
the planning mind,
the social mind,
the anxious mind,
the transactional mind.
This is the mind Jesus later describes as “troubled” and “divided” (Luke 10:41).
Nothing new can be born there.
So the birth happens elsewhere.
born among animals: Christ is born inside the human nervous system
Jesus is born in a stable among animals (mind).
This is not degradation.
It is anatomical truth.
The stable represents the interior body-space, close to instinct, sensation, and survival—the animal layer of human consciousness.
Christ is not born by escaping the body.
He is born within it, beneath reflex, beneath fear, beneath appetite.
This aligns with Paul’s declaration:
“Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
(Colossians 1:27)
Not Christ above you.
Not Christ outside you.
Christ in you.
shepherds, sheep, and the act of watching
The shepherds are told they were watching their flocks by night (Luke 2:8).
Jesus later commands the same practice explicitly:
“Watch.”
(Matthew 24:42)
The metaphor is consistent.
The sheep are thoughts.
The shepherd is awareness… you’re the shepherd. Ever heard of “counting sheep” as you dive into your sleep consciousness?
This is why Jesus teaches separation from thought-identification:
“Take no thought…”
(Matthew 6:25)
Watching thought without becoming it is the condition for the birth.
the magi were astronomers
The magi are not religious figures.
They are astronomers.
They follow a star rising in the East (Matthew 2:2)—the symbolic direction of illumination, origin, and awakening.
This mirrors Jesus’ own teaching:
“As the lightning comes from the east and shines to the west…”
(Matthew 24:27)
Wisdom does not arrive through belief.
It arrives through alignment.
Cast your nets to the right side.
christ is not a name. it is a title.
“Christ” is not Jesus’ last name.
It is a title meaning anointed—a state of consciousness authorized from within, not appointed from without.
Jesus never instructs people to worship him.
He instructs them to do what he does.
“The works that I do, you shall do also.”
(John 14:12)
This is why the distinction matters:
Jesus is the teacher.
Christ is the result.
And this is why the statement must be said without apology:
It is impossible to be a Christ if you are a Christian.
A Christian is a follower.
A Christ is an embodiment.
Imitation blocks incarnation.
etymology
The word Christ passes through Greek Christos, but the archetype it names predates Greek entirely.
In Sanskrit, Krishna names the same state: divine consciousness embodied within a human frame.
Different language.
Same inner event.
This is why Paul writes:
“It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.”
(Galatians 2:20)
Christ is not worshiped.
Christ is lived.
why religion cannot deliver christmas
Religion fills consciousness with preloaded answers.
Virgin consciousness requires emptiness.
Jesus warns directly:
“You have taken away the key of knowledge; you did not enter in yourselves.”
(Luke 11:52)
Belief replaces perception.
Tradition replaces experience.
And so the birth never occurs.
the inner christmas
Jesus defines the entire project in one sentence:
“The kingdom of God is within you.”
(Luke 17:21)
Christmas is the moment that kingdom becomes governing.
Not remembered.
Not reenacted.
Born.
When consciousness clears, watches, opens, and receives light, a new ruler emerges.
“And the government shall be upon his shoulder.”
(Isaiah 9:6)
That government is not external.
It is internal.
And when it arrives, violence becomes intolerable, fear loosens its grip, and identity reorganizes around light instead of survival.
this is the invitation hidden in the story
The Christmas story is asking you to become it.
To see yourself not as a sinner waiting for rescue,
but as a potential Christ waiting for birth.
That is the inner Christmas.
And that is why it had to be hidden in myth—
because only those willing to look inward would ever find it.
