No Growth … No Glory It is up to you Time is moving on. Opportunities are coming and going every day. And the universe carries on. There are no requirements. None really. We are given fierce free agency on this planet. Do, or don’t do, as you choose. But … IF you so choose … there is nothing you can’t do. We all have the potential for an infinite stream of inspiration flowing into our consciousness. Our Heart and Soul always have more information for us … IF we choose to listen and take action on it. There are plenty of people on Earth that are just getting by. Kind of like treading water. Not really going anywhere. And indeed life on Earth can be a struggle. But there are always new opportunities available. Always another opportunity to grow ourselves. And when we actually DO grow ourselves, we renew who we…
Heaven and Hell are both possible today Did you enjoy yesterday? Are there moments from yesterday that you can remember that make you smile? What about today? This day. Right now. As Souls incarnate, we always have free-agency to create as we choose. Often our religions have us preparing for Heaven AFTER judgment day. After that mythical day, THEN we are assigned to either Heaven or Hell. Well, hell exists today. There are plenty of people who will experience a form of hell today. Suffering is still present on this planet. If, indeed, free-agency is a fundamental part of BEing consciousness expressing, then we eternally have the option of heaven or hell in each moment. If you want to “go” to heaven, then schedule the trip for today. This day. The ever-present NOW is the only time ever that you will experience anything. You want to “go” to heaven? Learn…
Christ Consciousness to You Where is it that we are headed? When we think of the “spiritual” journey … where is it exactly that we are going? To get clear about what is the destination of this spiritual journey? Is it a place on a map? Once we arrive … then !!! Or is it a state of consciousness? We meditate and then … then… Then … what? There are a few common attributes to our Divine consciousness. One of them is … there is always another moment. Another “now” that comes along. Oh wait, here is yet another “now.” And another … you get the point (now ;-). The continuity of consciousness. And then there is free will. Your thought-generator does not have any limitations on it. There is no such thing as eternal damnation or eternal salvation. Eternal salvation suggests there is a time when you are not…
What Do You Desire? Desire is an inside journey What is it that you desire? What would you change about your life? What would it feel like to have your desires fulfilled? There is a curious concept. The notion that God Divine doesn’t have any plan for humanity. That we are on our own. God, the Big Guy, does not interfere with our human preferences. Something about that just seems a little off. I mean, the Big God, doesn’t have any desires for us? Really? It has been shown over countless centuries that man can go as far into the darkness as MAN desires. We can wage war til the end of time. And God does not intervene. At least not as some powerful force that overrides our own free will. We are here for the human experience. HUMAN experience. Flesh and bones. Whether man experiences peace on earth, or…
The Divine expresses through you, as you How good can you stand it? I mean. If indeed we are the portal of the Divine, expressing as ourselves, then what would heaven look like, to you? There is a pattern that is very common on this planet. And that pattern is the pattern of people awakening. Working through their issues. And most certainly, that is a very good thing. But, there is another chapter coming. Is is just past karma. It is the chapter we start living when we have cleansed our karmic past. Now make no mistake. I am not saying that if you don’t feel like you have any karma left, that there isn’t plenty to be discovered within you. Karma, by design, is mostly subconscious. And by that, nearly impossible to consciously know about. Not with any certainty anyway. Until you actually glow in the dark, like Jesus…
What is your relationship with creation itself? When we consider the notion that we are the creator incarnate, it can seem like we are just “part” of creation. I mean, there is this “me” and then there is the world and the universe outside of me. Therefore I am just “part” of creation. But I suggest there is a more authentic way to look at it. You are the creator. You are the thing itself. You are the consciousness of creation personified. And there is no separation between you and it. You are one with it, as it. Creation itself. All that is … is a mirror of you. Mind the gap. Mind your relationship with ALL of creation. Is there part of creation that you dis-own? Those pesky terrorists? Those evil ones? Those “bad” words and deeds that we avoid in order to stay in favor with righteousness? The…
Discovering the cost of judgement The idea of righteous living can be a very enslaving mindset. From the introduction of sin, there has been a deep karmic posture in the righteous movement of humanity. The notion of posturing ourselves to stay on the good side of God has been a deep scar of pain and suffering in our collective culture. Righteous has started war and motivated the desire to control others. The fear of falling out of God’s good grace is an idea that can bring a deep sense of fear of misbehaving. When the notion of salvation was created, as a day of judgement in our entire existence, the idea of becoming separated from the Creator has been held over our heads by others. The idea that your behavior could possibly get you outcast from “proper” or “righteous” existence in the universe is perhaps one of the biggest crimes…
