Have you ever noticed how many different people we all are.from serial killer to saintall kinds of people exist. You alone have been so different when you were born, when you grew up, from yesterday to right now, to how you will be and behave in future, that's how diverse you alone are. And all the people you know or don't yet know are different and unique on their own. And this is only the variety we see in the human realmthere are so many creatures, animals, birds, plant life, microbial among the incarnate beings. Beyond the incarnate we are so many spirit beingsvarious forms of energysome with form and some withoutevery person, animal, rock, plant, object, place, every thought, emotion, idea has an existence of its own and is living its own life, not just on our planet but in the infinite number of planets, galaxies in this amazing universe. Can you imagine nowjust how infinite our universe is? And have you ever thought of where this universe really iswhere did it beginwhere will it end if ever?
The truth is that every person, animal, plant, microbe, spiritplace, thing, emotion, thought, idea, desirejust everything there is in this universe is just this one being, this one energytaking so many forms, being so many beingsexperiencing it-self. And this one being, this Uni-verse is within mewithin you and within all that exists. In-fact we are all various aspects of our one-self experiencing itselfeach other..each thing through this life and beyond. We are the dreamer who forgets he is dreaming and then one day wakes up in his own dream and realizes s(he) is creating a very interesting dream which is life itself. Your deepest, innermost self knows this already. Your outer mind may or may not be conscious of this always, but this is the real and most beautiful truth about who we are. We are each othervarious aspects of our true self experiencing each other in every possible way.
How does that make you feel about yourself now? How does that make you feel about your partneryour friendyour siblingyour colleagueyour exyour enemypoliticsyour religion..your neighboryour servantthe dog on the streetHow do you now feel about the pages of all the books you have not yet readall the books you havethe music on your ipod. How does it make you feel about the water your drink or the food you are eating. How about the thought you are thinkingHow do you feel about your thought now? Envy, hatred, ego, greed, lust, fear, compassion, joy, blisswhat do you feel in this very moment as you read this line?
And do you realize that because of everything that has ever happened (and not in-spite of it)..all the broken hearts and angry words, all the smiles and laughter..all the sorrows and bewildermentall that I and you have ever, felt, experienced or have not felt or experienced, for each other, everything, everyone, for the known parts of our-self, for the unknown parts of our-selfwe are who we are right now. In this very moment we are all perfect, all one, all love!
Behind the facade or play of life, our true self is hidden (and sometimes revealed). Our true self is love itself. We are here to love every aspect of our-self. And this love transforms our awareness into our greater consciousness, taking us closer to our infinite nature. Yes we are love and everything is love. All hate is also love. All hurt is also love. All anger, all betrayal, all rights and wrong, all lies and deception, or successes and failuresthere is only love behind it all. Our love is our only reality. We are right now together, the uni-verse, one song, one truth..in perfect peace and perfect unity, in perfect love and perfect trust, that is who we are and will always be.
Blessed Be
