Question 154: Does the movie “Aquaman” have anything to do with the Gospel of Oneness?

 

Yes, it does. All of the superhero movies do because they are of such mythic proportions that play out epic and even cosmic dramas of good versus evil.

 

In Aquaman an important and revealing line is spoken: A king will fight for his country and his people, but a true hero will fight for everyone.” A true hero will fight for the greatest good for everyone and the environment as well. We can see that almost every country has a leader who will fight for his or her own country first. In our current political environment, it seems they have to do this, or they will fall victim to larger or more aggressive countries.

 

The leaders of some of the largest countries (2019) Trump, Putin, Xi Jiping, all seem to be putting their countries first. This has led them into trade wars, territorial disputes, and espionage activities. The leaders of other countries such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and North Korea have put their countries first in a way that tramples on the rights of their own citizens. These leaders are not heroes, they are more interested in keeping their power and pushing for their short-sighted agendas.

 

When we take a closer look at some of the up and coming leaders in the world we have reason to believe we have hope for a better future. We have some potential heroes who can see the vision of oneness and will work for the benefit of all the world.

 

The environmental crises of climate change, global pollution, deforestation, farm land degradation and more have caused people to wake up to the need for world wide cooperation to solve these problems. The fight is mainly against ignorance and short-sightedness. The young people who want a livable future are doing a lot of work to find solutions, and they won’t be denied by ignorant political leaders.

 

In the movie Aquaman, the two half-brothers of the same mother are pitted against each other and are on the verge of a war that will have awful consequences for both the land and the ocean based populations. One brother will fight for his kingdom that he thinks is under attack, and the other brother will fight on behalf of everyone by stopping the war.

 

The two brothers have the same mother goddess of the sea, so it seems that they should be able to reconcile, but delusion is strong, so it doesn’t always work out that way. We all have the same Father-Mother God of creation, so it seems that we should get along peacefully.

 

The goddess of the sea was exiled from her kingdom, and so did not have much direct contact with her boys. We have exiled ourselves from direct contact from out Father-Mother God, so we don’t remember the vast love and power of our souls.

 

The Gospel of Oneness is about reminding people where we came from, and that there is a way to return to the realization of oneness with our Creator. That realization comes right within us. We can make our hearts, minds, and Spirit into the beautiful garden of infinite beauty and ever-new joy.
