Christos
Christos, a concept deeply rooted in spiritual and philosophical discourse, refers to the divine spark or higher self inherent within each individual. This entity is essential for the achievement of union with the ultimate divine, acting as a bridge between the divine and the mortal realms. Christos encapsulates the idea of a divine presence within humanity, symbolizing the hidden, intrinsic divinity present in every person. It serves as a living mediator, facilitating a connection between the abstract, transcendent Deity and mortal human beings, thereby bridging the gap between the spiritual and the mundane. This manifold role of Christos underscores its importance as a vital aspect of self-realization and spiritual growth. The Christos represents the divine man in man, symbolizing the hidden divinity in every man, implying a continuity of the concept
