The Transfiguration Of Christ

When Jesus was transfigured on that mountaintop in front of three of his closest disciples, it was almost as if those from the world of the living, the phenomenal world, were offered a glimpse into the divine, eternal world of Spirits, Forms and Ideals, that noumenal world.

Could an individuator ever be transfigured while alive? Not likely. Jesus was a divinity when born, and, though a Son of Man, he was always a divinity, so this disclosure of his nature as it was for his chosen disciples, was so radiant, rare and unique that it was a transfiguration.
