God, as an abstract concept, can seem to many to be an imagination's figment. Yet when you look at the whole of the universe, and your existence and consciousness as inclusively part of that whole, then you realize that the mind is not one who dreams of God, it is God who dreams of mind. For in your true essence you are the Divine spark, the soul, the consciousness of the Source, the Creator, who was and is, for Source is all there ever has been!
I wonder if you understand what I am expressing here. Up until a couple years ago, I believed what I was told by the religious rulers about the basics of human nature and the creation of this physical universe. Yet I experienced doubts frequently, and could never understand why my thoughts and feelings always seemed to contradict one another!
Then I realized something crucial, something I simply did not see until a certain moment. Deep within me I understood that the concept of "evil" was never truly there to be avoided, or hated, or afraid of. For the Light that is the Center can never be put out, not by any darkness. And so I understood it by a simple visualization. I saw, in the center of a great forest as big as the whole universe, a light Source. And there, surrounding this light, was a multitude of pathways travelling into different parts of the forest. Here it became quite dark, for the trees were thick and they shielding the path from illumination. Yet just as one could see the light as "good" and the paths in the darkness as "bad," I simply saw all of this as God! The light as well as the darkness.
In the beginning, the Source was One with itself and did not experience any Other. And then, as all things change, so too did this original state of Being. Many sparks of the Light chose consciously to leave the Center and experience Separation-not forever. We simply wanted to see from a new perspective! For a time..
And yet there are beings, both on this planet and off, that still are stuck in a "limbo" of the illusion of deep separation from the Creator. Yet how can this be, when we all are part of the One conscious energy that IS all that IS?
Certainly they have tried to compensate for this illusion, by creating religion and structure and a capitalistic society. Yet we have seen the damaging effects of this illusion, for it hurts all to believe that they are not intrinsically connected to the Source. And if you did not already know, the Source is the same thing that we call Sacredness, Love, Prana, Unity, and Togetherness. So the only issue we really have here is that our conscious, every-day "selves" still have yet to realize that they are ALREADY in this space of true Wholeness. God is not one, because we are more than one. Yet we all are ONE.
For now, this is what I have to say. More to come as the days pass and the stars align.
Namaste.
