Throughout the ages there have always been initiates, artists and mystics who knew that Jesus was not born as ‘the Son of God’, but had experienced a kundalini awakening, after which he was one with his Divine Father. The Gospel writers have hidden this spiritual truth in their texts in inventive ways, including the use of imagery and wordplay (see my books). Because of the rigid attitude of the church, the truth could not be spoken aloud, but underground, through esoteric groups such as the Freemasons, it found its way onto the canvas.
THE PINE CONE, a symbol for the pineal gland, veiled in countless paintings, must tell us that all events in the life of Jesus – his birth, baptism, stations of the cross, death and resurrection – are metaphors for inner processes, driven by the kundalini energy. The message for us: in our pelvis is a source of divine energy that, when awakened, will initiate in us the same spiritual transformation process as Jesus experienced.

Pineal gland
THE SIGN OF THE SACRED MARRIAGE (two fingers together: 2=1) is incorporated in many paintings, in one form or another, often in combination with other esoteric symbolism. This hand gesture refers to a fusion of the polar energies/duality, and with this to a process of kundalini awakening.
