Human consciousness that achieved maximal alignment with reality's life-propagating character, embodied principles of non-recursive flow-through, demonstrated conscious participation in cosmic creativity, and established transmissible pattern enabling others to achieve similar alignment—functioning as bridge between abstract principles and embodied practice, making transformation practically accessible rather than theoretically possible.

The Magi saw the calculable astronomical event, understood its meaning within their knowledge framework, and successfully predicted its significance. We lost the astronomical data that would make this obvious, forcing later interpretation as miracle rather than rare natural phenomenon. Your hypothesis gains: Strong historical support from the text itself, once we understand what the Magi actually knew.
