Quetzalcoatl

(Aztec; literally "Feathered Serpent") "Quetzalcoatl is the Verb, the Great Word, the Platonic Logos, the Demiurge Architect of the Universe, the Creator. When we study Quetzalcoatl, we then discover that within it there exists the same Cosmic Drama of Yeshua Ben Pandira (Jesus Christ). Quetzalcoatl carrying his cross on his shoulders reminds us precisely of the Martyr of Calvary. Thus, indeed, Quetzalcoatl is the Logos; he is what is, what was and what will always be; he is the life that palpitates within every sun. So before the Universe came into existence, Quetzalcoatl already existed. It would be impossible to accept, in any sense, a mechanism without a mechanic, as the materialist anthropologists believe. We must never stop comprehending that behind any mechanism there most always exists intelligent principles. Quetzalcoatl is the Multiple Perfect Unity, the Cosmic Christ... Quetzalcoatl as Logos is what is, what has always been and what will always be. Quetzalcoatl is the life that palpitates in every atom as it palpitates in every sun. Quetzalcoatl is the Word. Unquestionably, Quetzalcoatl as the Nahua-Mexica Christ is the fundamental center of the Cosmic Drama. Indeed, beloved reader, the most glorious moment for us has arrived in which the first flame in our comprehension has been lit within our intelligence. Let us start to comprehend that the Logos can be seen in different ways: now, from the Hebraic angle, or from the Egyptian angle, and we can also study it in light of Archaic Mexico. Quetzalcoatl as Chrestos, as Vishnu, as Logos, is the Verb, the Word." - from Aztec Christic Magic
