The Chariot

Enoch walked with God and was not.
Elijah was carried away in a flaming chariot.
Elisha asked his servant eyes to be open and when he did , he saw flaming chariots around Elisha.

Krishna was a chariot driver.
Plato explained the chariot as having a dark and a white horse.
Buddha explained the chariot as both body and mind presence.

What exactly is the chariot and why was Elijah taken away?

We should understand the lesson of the chariot is in various cultures. It was no co-incidence that Krishna was a chariot driver in the Bhagavad Gita or that the book of Kings mentions the chariots Even that Plato mentioned this in the Republic. Buddha explains the ultimate goal would be to unite body and mind.

What is this chariot everyone spoke of?

 Philip and the Ethiopian
…37And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." 38And he ordered the chariot to stop; and they both went down into the water, Philip as well as the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away; and the eunuch no longer saw him, but went on his way rejoicing.…




Philip was seen later in another town Azotus. The spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away wow!

Elijah was not heard of since until mentioned in the christian new testament with Jesus at the transfiguration along with Moses.

When we see study the Bhagavad Gita and the bible along with Plato's book of Republic and the Buddhas rendition it becomes clear. The chariot is the spirit of the Lord.
We are to live as if in a chariot.
Plato explained the dark horse as being the appetites and comforts needed for survival.
Plato explained the white horse as being the higher attributes more spirited horse.
The chariot is the guardian.

We find it is also a concept in the Tao. With the symbolic dark and white circles.

The Apostle Paul said something that was key, we are not to be too heavenly minded to be of no earthly good.
The Buddha said the key is to walk the middle path.

We find many speak of the path of enlightenment in Hindu as two part samadhi. The first part may be when you realize yourself or Buddha nature. You may actually hear your own thoughts as you are residing in higher self.

The second part is where few will ever achieve is what the Buddha tried to explain  - the middle path. Plato also tried to explain this as also did the Tao. The highest enlightenment is the chariot - to be able to balance our natures. This can only be done with the help of the Spirit of the Lord or Chariot.
When we realize this we become fully enlightened. Jesus life was both equally human and divine.

We live in the Spirit as the chariot driver. You will find it explained in many systems this second part samadhi can take you away to other worlds once it is achieved. It would be hard to explain this where sometimes you are in a split second living in another reality or consciousness then being returned.
Do not be surprised if this happens once you are in the chariot anything goes!

Peace,

Earl.
