Noulfes
When Wm.Tyndale in 1526 completedhistranslation of the NewTestament
muchofwhose language both beautiful&loving wasrendered into the
AuthorizedVersion of 1611 (the KingJames version asweknow it)
he reshaped the ancientword "noulfes" intotheword we nowknow as "soul".
Andso the separation between an imminent&transcendent diety intensified
between a Christianity thatwouldhave its believers possess a soul as some mysticalentity
nearlyprofane inits allegedattribution of "being as GodHimself*" which (ironically?)
insteadofsuggesting a chance for the separation of sapien&god tobemelded
ratherencouraged the antitheticalassertion sobravely&vehementlyembraced by believers
bereft of thekindofpride thatmustbe overcome inorderto makethesuggestion
that GodasChrist couldmend the separation foreachsapien without oureffort without oursuffering
&transform eachofus from "childofGod" to "onewithGod" (a proposition that is still thoughtblasphemous
with eachbeliever necessarilyretaining his personality&distance fromGod).

tobe sufficientlymaleable (asif a semipermeablemembrane) tomeld God&sapien neurologically
wheretheancient transculturalword "noulfes" mayhavebeen confabulated or havebeen
the victimof linguisticshinnanigans morphing from its truerform of "noulsef" toits truestform as
"noself" suggesting an immanence beyondtheabilityof Godasother Who giftsus salvation via faithalone.
Thisunderstanding oftheword withthe modernapplicability tothmovement of socalled "Eastern"
religiophilosophic mantras (theword "mantra" clearly a bastardization of "tantrum") couldbe
