Question about symbolizm
I was curios to what a cob of corn symbolizes and what would one be trying to say, having one step on it. Especially if that foot was one of a neocon.

Re: Question about symbolizm
Hi, I dont fully understand your question, but as far as symbolism goes; the corn cob is similar in appearance to a pine cone, in this set of vids wilcock shows how pine cones have been used to symbolise the pineal gland. Its all interesting, but the pine cone stuff starts in part 3.

The esoteric field of spirituality is concerned with direct experience of reality. It begins where the exoteric path ends. The people who work in this field are slightly mad: they seek to shed the hallucination of separate existence and to disappear into the effulgent visions of poets and sages. The esoteric path is one of self-transcendence, the only real hope for humanity. It does not promise a reward: it is the promise, it is the reward. The exoteric path does not penetrate the mystery of life directly, but only prepares one for that leap into the unknowable mulch-mound of ecstatic silence and loving. The exoteric path is concerned with establishing conditions and outcomes. The esoteric path is not interested in establishing any condition other than recognition of that seed from which the crop of the universe has grown; it has no outcome other than to eradicate ignorance, delusion, and suffering. The esoteric path penetrates the mystery of life directly, and dangerously, through self-transcendence. A great thinker once said "If you are still concerned with outcomes, then self-realization is not for you." |

Re: Question about symbolizm
Ok, I can try.
Ear of corn: Harvest, plenty, food, completion, "full cycle". (and since I'm not sure how you meant it) Corn Cob: All of the above, but in a "used up" state, or cut short. Stepped on: gosh, is there a place on the planet where it doesn't mean, control and submission, even to destruction? By the way, NeoCon: (n.) A socialist who got tired of saying "please".
