Too often I’ve come across statements that declare we should ‘accept our lot in Life’...that ‘God never gives you more than you can handle’... that ‘whatever God gives you, is what He wants for you’...
Well...it sounds too much like religious dogma, rather than true doctrine... designed to keep mankind ignorant of his own Inner Divinity...It smacks too much like disempowerment and obfuscation… after all, Life is a series of changes, each with the opportunity for growth and personal transformation.
And so why should I accept such platitudes that tell me God wants me to bow down and be stagnant !??
And before you get too upset, just for a moment follow my query -
I have been told that ‘Man is created in God’s image’...that ‘He breathed Life into Man’... and ‘the very Breath of God is within us all’ [and not just for a select ‘chosen ones’].
So then if I am ‘God-in-human-form’ is there a difference between the God-Creator and the God-Incarnate ?
[and before you say ‘Yes !’, emphatically pointing out that God-Creator is the Absolute, Universal, All-Being; and the God-Incarnate is just ...what ? A lesser version ? A more limited, puny, little shadow, outcast of the Great One ?
Or that, just maybe, this Divine Breath is...not God’s Life within us ?].
You see, to me either we are ALL God-in-Form [and thus required to live up to it], or we are not [and now we question all those early teachings in Genesis]... or maybe - just maybe - the problem does not lie with the Teachings, but in the Dogma that is being touted as ‘Faith-and-don’t-you-dare-question-it !!’
Let me clarify something: I truly love God, in ALL Its wonderful Forms. But I often question those teachings that are designed to create limitations upon my life... and the clergy that would sell us gruel, and name it gravy…
[and now I would always ask: why...and who benefits from my limitations ?]
Where am I going with all this ?
I encourage all of you to be Self-Empowered... to cast out those thoughts / beliefs / concepts that belittle and limit who and what you are... I encourage you to dream big - and make your dreams come true... to live a life filled and overflowing with all the beauty and riches of Creation... to truly KNOW that the Creator IS within us all, and that it is the same unlimited Creator that birthed the Universe - and so there are NO limits that are beyond your capabilities.
Ok, that sounds good, right ?!...are you still with me ?!
So, how do you get there...How do you allow this Divine inner essence to lead you ?
Let’s consider the process that the Master Jesus of Nazareth used - first he said “I am the messenger of God”...later he realized “I am the son of God”... and finally he accepted that “God and I are one”... and turned around to his followers and said “This and more you too shall do”.
Now, some of you may not be Christians, and to you I will point out that all Avatars speak with the same voice [i.e. all Divine Ones come to Earth to teach us the same things].
So - you, the reader, who has been on your Spiritual Path for many, many lifetimes...You have found many different practices that work well for you.
Great ! Wonderful !! Now it’s time to practice ‘mergence’...to become one with the Teachings... to go beyond being ‘the Practitioner’ and to be the Path ...
And while you’re doing all this, know - without ANY doubt - that the very breath you call Life, IS the Breath of the Creator... so... follow the Breath Within to lead you to the Breath that’s all around...
The time of Transformation is here... what are y’all waiting for - an invite ??!
To all that follow this Path of Light and Wisdom, remember the Light Within...
And so I greet you all, my beloved Brothers and Sisters of the Light... Namaste...
