BIBLE VERSES

BOAR, WILD

A symbol of the quaternary of planes below atma.

'Here (at the Mariandyni) died Idmon the seer, wounded by the tusks of a wild boar."-Argonautic Expedition. The soul having arrived at the state of right discrimination in the domain of the higher intellect (King Lycus) the quality of faith (Idmon) is extinguished. The "wounding by the tusks of a wild boar" is symbolic of Divine Truth, through the attainment of the buddhic (fourth plane) consciousness, penetrating the corresponding vehicle faith, thus rendering the latter needless.
