The Great Ones come alone and go alone.

Both their coming and their going are accompanied by extraordinary natural phenomena. The Universe pays homage!

Almost always, Great Ones take birth in circumstances that are unpretentious compared to ordinary notions of how these things should happen. 'Scandalous' would not be an inappropriate description.

Jesus is one of the Great Ones.

His parents were traveling. They had gotten shelter for the night when the pangs of birth commenced. Joseph went out into the road to get help. But then he heard the child's cry.

At his birth and for many years thereafter, neither Joseph, Mary nor Jesus was aware of Jesus' nature and destiny. To himself and to others, Jesus was an ordinary mortal.

Do you ever hope that everything will go right, for a change? ... that what is supposed to get done gets done? ... that people will make good decisions that everybody likes because they are good? Have you ever experienced things going right, getting well done? Have you ever felt the exhilaration of hearing good decisions that are universally admired because they are good?

Well, this is how the Universe feels when Great Personages take birth:

At last!
The Truth will be told
and will out!
