BIRD'S NEST
A symbol of the buddhic plan (heaven) in which
the aspiration (birds) lodge, and in which are reared their
progeny-the higher emotions.
"Bird is a Hebrew term for angel the Bird's Nest is heaven. . . In
the Zohar the Bosom of God is called the Bird's Nest.' 'When the
Messiah shall be made perfect, through the instrumetality of the
righteous, he will enter the Garden of Eden, into that place which
is called the Bird's Nest' (Zohar, 2 8b) - ISAAC MYER, Qabbalah, p.
217.
The "Messiah" signifies the Christ-soul, or indwelling Self, not yet
perfect in expression but to be made so through the instrumentality
of the evolving higher qualities (the righteous). When perfection on
the lower planes is attained then the Christ consciousness rises to
the buddhic plane (Eden), or the "bosom of God"-the "nest" of the
great Sun-Bird, the eternal Self of all; the "nest of Brahman "
broods.
“Birds of the heaven come and lodge in the branches thereof." -
MATTHEW xiii. 32.
