Lyman Frank Baum’s novel is like a bible for beginners. There is still another spiritual allegory, whether it is intended or happens through serendipitous circumstances—perhaps divine. Don’t neglect The Holy Trinity Father, Son, Holy Spirit, a.k.a. Leo, and Tin Man. Blasphemy? Well, the Scarecrow works in secret.
All kinds of superstitious coincidences surrounded this timeless gem known as The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz. Starting with the production of film adaptations, released by MGM in 1939, one of the final scenes of the film involved the actor Frank Morgan as “Professor Marvel”, just before Dorothy natural disaster flight to Heaven… Oops, I mean Oz
Anyway, Morgan’s wardrobe was picked from a rack of old clothes randomly bought by the film studio. Once he opened his shirt pocket to find the name L. Frank Baum sewn into the shirt. It was later discovered by Baum’s widow and the tailor who made the jacket that it actually belonged to the author of the novel. Yeah, kinda freaky. What is it? I don’t know, but these kinds of coincidences seem to go hand in hand with The Wizard Of Oz. Another example is the phenomenon of Pink Floyd.
You may be familiar with this one. Unknown rock group Pink Floyd, their 1973 album “Dark Lawn” perfectly matched the in-elite events of MGM classics. It is well documented and, as you would believe, there are many internet sites dedicated to the curious case.
Of course, if you read it on the Internet, it is undoubtedly true. I believe life is a dream, girl. My contention is that we are the creators of our reality, and we can change that reality at will. In the Old Testament it is said that Adam slept, and when all Hell broke loose, so to speak. But I find it curious that the Scriptures in no place ever said anything about Adam waking up; all that him.
In a dream, God takes one of Adam’s ribs and makes her a partner who goes by the name of Eve. (I want me babyback, babyback, babyback…) The first guy on earth ever dreams and what does he dream about? Women – before they even existed. Bright, innocent, sweet, pure. Surely this girl could do no wrong in the eyes of her loving creator. But it is his perception that is the thing in this dream, not the thing. Dorothy… Oops, I mean Eve. Sure, she was surrounded by people who loved her and had always been cared for by her beloved Aunt Em, but she didn’t believe her voice was being heard. Dorothy was frustrated with the status quo and wondered if there was a better place.
She knew that Aunt Em had the best of her heart, but Dorothy felt that aunt was being undermined by the threat of evil present in the form of Miss Almira Gulch – a mean and mean old b’itch (formerly a witch) who she was trying to possess. I killed that dog, Toto. In young, I say. He ate the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. Following the advice of the cunning serpent – a sorcerer who called himself Professor Marvel – Dorothy found herself running to God…I mean Aunt Em… because the Prophet said that the shister was needed for profit by his aunt, who was suddenly infirm. Dorothy had guilty feet, and we all know that guilty feet do not change. So he went to Aunt Em’s to come to his senses, but by an act of God he was cast out of the Garden of Kansas. Wait… Adam and Eve East of Eden and Dorothea’s helmet ended up in Wicked Witch. .. Try to save, kids.
Dorothy landed on the Wicked Witch of the East. Our young heroes now find themselves in a completely different place. Her pious and guardian angel, Toto, came with her from one world to the next. In this wonderful new world, the savior is immediately recognized by the inhabitants. She, however, made the yellow clay of the road out of her captor, the sorceress of the East. Immediately the Munchkins sing songs about him. You marvel at his skill at once. They sang: “Come out, come out, wherever you are, and meet the girl who fell from the star. She fell from the sky, fell a long way and Kansas, he said, is the name of the star. Kansas; It is, he said, the name of the star. Have you not heard? The gospel, or the Gospel, if you prefer.
A hero from another world coming to spread the good news… The story all sounds very familiar. Glinda, the spirit guide, arrives and welcomes Dorothy. He gives her some vague advice about what exists in Oz. All good leaders usually leave somewhat behind. They want you to look after yourself, so they only give you the necessary attention to help you along your journey. Also, Glinda gave the lazy messiah a pair of slippers that were meant to ward off the Wicked Witch of the West. It could just as easily have been a crucifix, a holy book, or a sprig of garlic. The puzzle that boggles the mind is where the magic comes from. The ruby sock and the rosary beads are conductors of faith. By the way, in Baum’s novel, there were silver magic shoes. MGM had a new Technicolor with their work now.
Kansas scenes were all black and white, but Oz was bright and vivid, happy, eye color candy. Therefore, Ruby’s shoes were much more visually appealing than Silver’s. Glinda, the good sorceress, even Dorothea provided the heroes with something they all needed to complete: a Quest. You see this is about the journey, not the destination. (The journey of a thousand miles begins with looking at airport security.) Dorothy is told that the Wonderful Wizard of Oz can tell her to return home. All knowing The Wizard Who Lives in the Emerald City was what the book was originally about, the publishers at the Hill Company were surprisingly leery of having a gem in the title.
The Good Witch of the North told Dorothy that in order to successfully find the Emerald City, she must stay on a certain path, which The The Yellow Brick Road, and one should not stray from it. How nice – the road to enlightenment. Simply “Follow the Yellow Brick Road.” https://e-info.vn/tag/red-hair-color”>red-hair-colorguru, Glinda, disappears and all the singing Munchkins from view, our character comes to a fork in the road, literally. What path would the witch take?
This is where God intervenes. Cucumber is God – to act. Dorothy asks her guardian angel, Toto, where to go and when the Scarecrow cymbals, “Forgive me. That way is very nice.” But then he says, “Therefore it is also pleasant.” God is indifferent, because all roads lead to him. Perhaps Led Zepplin said it best when they said: “You can go two ways, but in the long run there’s still time to change the way you’re on.” Dorothy doesn’t buy Stairway to Heaven and she doesn’t buy the Scarecrow’s insight.
Basically she asked him why he couldn’t make up his mind and he pointed out that he didn’t have a brain; At which point Dorothy shows the absurdity of this statement by asking, “What then can you speak unless you have a brain?” God’s response: “I don’t know. But some people without brains talked a lot, didn’t they?” Father: Thought, Consciousness, Surrounding Mind. “I think, therefore I am.” Everything in the universe consists of atoms and atoms, they are, in short, small pockets of light & consciousness This is the thinking universe that we live in (I know I hate it too). “The brain is a piece of God.” – Emily Dickinson. If this is just a dream, then someone is thinking about this stuff. Einstein said that he wanted to know that God’s thoughts and everything else were just individual. All things, even the singular, are the thoughts of God.
The search for the Scarecrow’s brain is like a fish swimming around looking for where the ocean is, which happens to all the characters in Oz. Everyone already has what they want. All findings are questions of self-discovery. Many have been made to experience it. We always find different reasons for ourselves. Indeed, we rested. Baum relives the nightmare he had when he was a little boy chasing a scary cucumber plant. I find it kind of ironic that the Scarecrow chose to be the one that most misleads Dorothy. It seems that Baum was able to win the Nemesis when he was young.
I think that’s how it works in the Earth School; we must know to experience the light in the darkness. I unknow myself before he knows me. Son: The Word became flesh. The human race eats from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, therefore the human race perceives itself as separate from God. If you think that God is everything, and you are a rejection, it is certain that fear is your constant companion. We are the king of the jungle, we are humans – humans (most of us). We are the most evolved creatures on the planet and we exercise free will. This is a real estate concern. Imagine knowing that you were born at night and that you perished at night. Imagine knowing that between birth and death you will suffer pain, betrayal, loneliness, persecution, humiliation with physical pain. Despite this knowledge, you dare to go with it. You are not shy Leo.
You are the king of the jungle! Glory to the born king! …for I have lived long enough to learn in life that there is no lasting adversity Tin Woodsman was looking for the heart, which we all recognize as the home of Love .The heart is where the house is.
In God’s Triple Decker Sandwich, the Holy Spirit is the messenger guy. The way I see it, our perceived separation from the Father required us to create a message for both parties. There really isn’t any separation at all, but as long as we continue to choose disease over every illness, the illusion takes hold. See, Truth doesn’t use weapons, doesn’t cry, and tries to get attention when they cry. The truth remains patiently observed. Tin Man rusted in one place for a year before some chick from Kansas showed up to give him oil. to change Jack Haley (The Tin Man) a religious Catholic and once honored by the Roman Pontiff. But that’s not enough. What I am writing here is not to recommend that one religion is the right religion.
This is how I think big – noting my own tendencies in a work of fiction, which is a stranger to truth. Do you think the Bible is the word of God? They are so funny books. I really tried to go through this without disclaimer and I didn’t. Darn… All religions are as big as the spokes leading to the center of the wheel. If you are wondering what L. Frank Baum said about organized religion, he once said: “Priests recognize their fallacy; when they remove superstition, intolerance, and superstition, they abhor the god of revenge; they can reconcile reason and religion and fear lest the people think for themselves, then, in the end, the Church alone will recover its former power and will be able to draw the whole people to its platform.
I strongly believe that The Wizard represents the weakest attempt in human history to establish institutional answers. It’s definitely comforting to know that people are in the know, but it’s also a little on the irresponsible side to hand that over like a hot potato. If the goal here is to find who we really are, then giving that responsibility to someone else is equivalent to asking someone else to do the right thing and exercise so that we can stay healthy. However, people who claim to have answers are certainly demanding. And they are well compensated. Building huge palaces of joy like the one in the Emerald City has always been a common response for righteous people. But somehow God’s messengers sometimes mistake themselves for God. And he who sat was like the appearance of a jasper and sardine stone: and there was a rainbow around the throne like an emerald. – Revelations. Whether we are talking about churches and clerics, or about government and politicians, our children are surely reaping the benefits of what God has done well.
The Wizard was not at all evil or malicious. It happened that he was forced into the office because there was such a demand. He also brought back with him the unknowns of Kansas as a stranger to the riots. pay no attention to the naked emperor behind the curtain. But people hate to be held accountable for lying, plain and simple. It is twofold. You can’t please people all the time, and we know that, but we only ask for a response from our people. We then seek & I choose to be the most effective liar.
Make the pill a little easier to swallow. If ignorance is bliss, why are they all threatened? The wizard said he would help Dorothy and the three wise men if they could complete one task. Of course, he gave them what he thought was impossible, which is usually done with men to answer. Tell men to abstain from sex, and you will be saved. They tell you to get a broom handle from the Wicked Witch of the West. The second is the more reasonable of the two, of course. So our group of heroes are sent by the Wizards to retrieve an arbitrary object, for the game really. It’s a basic suicide mission, but it’s life itself. Give me a dragon to slay, or I will forever languish in purgatory.
The writer often created impossible tasks to overcome the characters. Baum, in one of his later Oz stories, wrote about the shifting sands, which was an impassable desert around the land of Oz. Wasn’t there some material in the Bible about going through solitude or something? Anyway… If you’re going to overcome your fears, you couldn’t ask for better allies than the clarity and memory of pure awareness in a terrifying form. Together with the clement soldiers of the lake in invincible purpose and holy prudence for the divine plan. Again, give me a lion with primal verve untouched before; King of Kings with “da noive” to walk through the Valley of the shadow of death. And let us not forget the pious guardian angel present in the most pleasant form of man’s best friend. On his way to attack evil, he took on an unwelcome evil.
Dorothy is trapped in a witch’s castle and separated from her friends after being attacked by flying monkeys. (I hate when that happens.) The wicked witch wanted silver slippers. Have you ever noticed that I always think I need one way to get everything right? Just as Mr. Potter would have been perfect if George Bailey had recently returned the building and loan. Didn’t Kessinger Coyote pick up just another Roadrunner? I digress. The witch needed a shoelace, so an hourglass was placed in front of Dorothy so that she would know how much time she had before she perished. (Those of us with dial-up Internet service what it’s like.) Judas signed the fate of Jesus with thirty pieces of silver. silver and the witches of the west will act in Dorothea for silver shoes, before the cavalry saves the day. Look, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Lion, the witch’s henchmen dressed as Winkies (seriously), storm the castle and save Dorothy. It is a common theme in mythology that heroes pretend to be their enemies in order to be successful in their quest – again, you know what you are not so you know what you are.
At the climax of the film, the evil attempts to destroy God. A ridiculous evil, always thinking that there is an existence outside of God. The Witch’s attempt at burning the Scarecrow ended when she was baptized by Dorothy with stea/a>. the talking machine and the automobile, for these things had to be dreamed of before they became reality. So I believe that dreams are dreams of the day … with open eyes … for the betterment of the world.
An imaginative child will become an imaginative man or woman most apt to give birth, to discover, and therefore to foster civil worship. An eminent educator tells me that fairy tales are of inestimable value in developing imaginations in young people. I believe “I don’t believe in happy endings, because I don’t believe in endings. Get up, Adam! Mr. Baum woke up from his sleep in 1919, after a lifelong battle with a heart condition. This infirmity prevented him from participating in the physical activities that other boys participated in as a youth. they were whispering to their beloved spouse: “Now we can cross the quicksands.”
