Shakespeare and Bacon were possibly the same person. In light of Bacon's involvement in some of these societies, I consider Shakespeare's quote to be not coincidental.
Indeed and agreed. And to go even deeper, some say Bacon was an earlier soul incarnation of the one later known as St. Germain, and a later soul incarnation of one of the Roman guards who slayed Jesus.
Am I stretching ya too far? These are not popular "ideas" I realize...
That is correct. As the story goes, following the event he renounced his position, fled the Roman army and lived out the short remainder of his life in deep shame and guilt for what he had done. Despite being continuously consoled and reminded between incarnations by Jesus himself that he performed his divine duty that day and was a critical part of the destiny of Jesus', he vowed to go above and beyond to make amends for his actions that fateful day. Bacon and St. Germain are two of the more notable incarnations, St. Germain being his last in the flesh.
I like your quote. I did not know Rumi. Sufi. I think those folks, the Zoroastrians and the Ahura Mazda folks are/were all much closer to God than the Hollow Men religions we have today. Leaning together, headpieces filled with straw.
The quote seems to following along the lines of Nietszche's "Beyond Good and Evil". And, in a way, like Søren Kierkegaard. Or even Tesla. "If one wishes to understand the Universe, one must learn to think in terms of frequency and vibration."
Yes indeed, agreed across the board on all counts. Yes, Rumi came up through the Sufi tradition. He was a very wise individual as evidenced by the quote.
I would put forth to you that all this is pointing to the "Witness for God" idea in biblical scripture. While there are zillions of different ways to interpret this idea, I believe it implies taking the position of a "Neutral observer" in life. In other words, stepping outside of JUDGMENT, which is, in effect NOT "eating from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, as this is the very definition of JUDGMENT --- assigning a positive/negative charge to a person, place, thing, event, etc. An act that BINDS us to the material realm.
Thus, to "witness" is to look on to a person, place, thing while reserving one's judgment.
Whadaya think? Not a popular idea in mainstream circles I realize...
Vengeance (and Judgement) is Mine, sayeth The Lord. (Romans)
Do not say 'I am too young.' You will go wherever I send you, and say whatever I tell you to say. (Jeremiah)
To God, we are made in His image and we are well loved by Him. But we are not Him, and should not presume to take His role, or think that we understand what He understands. We are more than we think. And I suspect much more. Yet still we are not God.
Reject your sense of injury and the injury itself disappears. - Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
In all things, have no preference. - Musashi-san, Dokkodo
The singular question that resolves all paradoxes has been posed to mankind through antiquity and even into the modern day. From the Halls of Amenti of Egypt in the inner temple, to the outer walls of the Temple at Delphi, and even referenced in the movie "The Matrix".
Indeed. One of my favorite quotes. Hard for most to come to terms with.
Here's another: "Out beyond the realm of right-doing and wrong-doing there's a field; I'll meet you there" - Rumi

Longinus?
He had a fun cameo in "The Seventh Seal", with Demi Moore.
