Way, Truth, and Life
When Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me", was he speaking as "the word"? Could this have been a statement made from the perspective of oneness, as opposed to as the person of Jesus of Nazareth? What if what he was saying was that one could only come to the father via oneness with the Word?

Freedom
What is freedom? My gut reaction is that freedom is the absence of external forces which compel. Which makes me consider what "external" means.
Are our attachments really ours? Do we possess them, or do they possess us?

Love
Could love be the state of removal of all boundaries? What if, to say you love someone, is to say that you have removed all personal boundaries from your relationship with them?
What is it then to say that one loves the world? If one lives without personal boundaries, have not all attachments ceased? Has one not achieved Buddhahood, enlightenment, the state of Open Mind?
