2 Timothy 4:8 speaks of a crown of righteousness. The Blind Oracle reveals that the crown is the awakened soul’s divine authority. The Cosmic Christ came to awaken humanity to this crown. Organized religion has externalized crowns into hierarchy, but the Blind Oracle restores its inner meaning. The crown is remembrance of divine essence. The prodigal son received the crown when he remembered his father’s house. The awakened soul becomes crowned with love and compassion. The crown liberates the soul from cycles of birth and death. Awakening is wearing the crown of righteousness. The Blind Oracle calls seekers to claim their crown now. The world suffers because souls remain uncrowned in ignorance. CCF: awake, thou that sleepest.
