I never thought that I would be writing something like this post but here it is? What do you see in the above picture? A lion? A rabbit? A falcon? How many see an elephant?
But what if that elephant identifies as a lion? As a rabbit? As a falcon? What are we to do?
This subject came up in the unlikely place of conversing about Druids and the Order of Bards, Ovates & Druids. Does being a Druid only mean someone in the grade of Druid and is studying or has completed that work? Or can anyone that follows a Druidic path call themselves a Druid?
On the internet we find people that call themselves Dr.; Rev; Master; or any assorted titles. Some are from recognized institutions and and others are frankly simply made up! But these people identify themselves as such! What are we to do? I welcome responses to this question.
Hi Jo,
Thank you for your continuing info. share.
I believe it is likely to suppose yourself an okapi while you’re an elephant indeed, by trying to be politically correct upon social enforcement.
Or possible to consciously behave wearing mask of an okapi for a supposed advantage.
In either case, both yourself and careful observer will understand the truth.
Lots of us have the knowledge to complete the true roles under all religious headings but do not choose to show what we accomplish! Invisible ombudsman to all religions and systems!
Yes, there is a universally recognized path which all of us must some day walk. But that path is unique and only for us. The path is from the outer rim of the circle to the center where we can all meet!
or straight through all religions!
