08/28/2017 - Defining God

The god that can be named is not the true god. God is undefinable. If the definition of god doesn't include all things and all variations and all possibilities, then it's not the true definition. In your attempts to define god, you are seeing your own separation from god. You will see yourself in a world separate from god, apart from god. In the very act of looking for god, you start with the premise in mind that you are not god, and you are going to look outside of yourself for god. While you believe that you are separate from god, you think that you can be hurt. You think that you can die, or lose something. Only a body can be hurt in this way. You can only have guilt if you have an identity that relies on being a body. Only a body can hurt other bodies, or kill or be killed by other bodies. Those who can only see the others around them as being bodies, will believe that those bodies must be protected. For they will conclude that when the body dies, so too does the individual that resides therein. And they will craft a morality around preservation of those bodies, and they will shame anyone who defies that morality. But if you are more than the body, then there is nothing that can be hurt. A morality built around the identity of the body is meaningless, and so too is the guilt that comes from that morality. How can we experience God? To have an experience of god, you must get closer to the understanding of god. To come to a complete understanding god, would mean to leave the identity of this body behind. So people may avoid knowing god, because they don't want to lose themselves. But you shouldn't be afraid of death, you shouldn't be afraid of loss, or failure. There is no body to be hurt. I am eternal and nothing can stop me, nothing can hurt me. When we were young, learning fear was useful to us. it protected this body and kept it in this world, so that we could continue having this experience. It was useful. But is fear still useful to us now? Is it still serving us? It is helpful to reexamine our beliefs from time to time to see if they are still service our highest good. We are here in the physical world because we are holding on to some resistance. As we let go of each resistance, we become more purified. If this is taken far enough then we will awaken from this dream. This is the goal, and the ultimate fate of all people. But we should also remember that we wanted to be in this dream. it is not a punishment. it is a voluntary experience. we chose to be her to have this experience, and the purpose of our existence in this sphere is to work through this experience. We are constantly in a flow, changing, growing, experiencing, and becoming. We have all eternity to experience this processes, and so there is no rush. There is no need to feel frustrated that we haven't emerged from the dream yet, because it happens at the pace we desire it to. There is no chance that we can fail to fulfill our end goal of becoming one with god, because it is inevitable. We are here of our own volition, we are the embodiment of the will of god, and we are unstoppable in achieving the purpose for which we came here. Fear not, and embrace the experience for which you came here to receive.

8/7/17 - Purpose and Duality

Why am I here?
What is the purpose of life?
Have you ever stopped and asked yourself those questions?

It's safe to assume that most of humanity has, at some point or another, wondered the exact same things. Asking themselves, "why do I exist?" A lot of energy went into making us exist, and so it must have been for some reason . . . right?

Existential philosophers have often addressed this problem of not knowing our purpose in life. At times it has been referred to as: The Absurd. Because we have an innate desire to know and understand our existential meaning and purpose, and yet there is no one who can give it to us. And this paradoxical existence appears absurd.

Some philosophers, such as Viktor Frankl developed theories on the idea that meaning isn't a static element or a finite conclusion that one reaches. Instead, meaning is derived through the active process of seeking for it in any given moment. As such, your meaning, your purpose can be as fluid as water, and can take any shape that it needs to in any given circumstance.

One story says that in the beginning, there was nothing. And out of that nothing, god created the heavens and the earth. And god stepped back to view it, and saw that it was good. But god realized that there was no one else to observe the majesty of his creation. And so out of the mud of the earth, god created man. After man was made aware, he stood up and gazed upon god's creation and marveled, "Why did you make this wonderful creation?" God replied, "Does there have to be a reason?" To which, man replied, "yes, of course!" So god said, "Then I will leave it up to you to decide the purpose of it's creation." And with that, god left the man amidst all of creation, to decide for himself what it meant.

A verse taken from the Tao Te Ching, and translated by Reverend Devan Divine states:

It is not possible for your purpose to take sides;

it uses opposition to experience it’s existence.

Nor is it possible for a Trained Mind to perceive sides;

it sees only itself, both in saints and sinners.

Your purpose is always providing 

it is pure yet infinitely capable.

The more you act on it, the more it produces through you;

the more you try to define it, the less you get experience it.

To comprehend it, is to live it.

Naturally expressing from within, 

a flow, without discernment of hinderance. 

Tao Te Ching - https://goo.gl/JRqnno 

Your life has purpose. You are not here by accident. So why can it seem like finding your purpose can be so hard? And the harder you try to find it, the further you seem to be from it?

The answer is: Because the more you try to define it, and isolate what it is; the more you try to find it - the more you are reaffirming to yourself that you don't know it.

The reality is that you are your purpose, and you could never be anything BUT what you actually are. You are experiencing your purpose right now, even though you may not have previously been able to recognize it as such. In order to comprehend your purpose, you need only awaken to the realization that you are living it with every breath you take. You needn't be afraid of "doing it wrong" or missing out because you weren't able to put it into words. You are divine purpose manifested, and all that you do is an extension of that purpose. Stop looking for your purpose, and realize that you already are your purpose. Then go out and live it, unhindered by fear, doubt, or uncertainty. The more you act on it, the more it produces through you.

Are you meant to be a saint or a sinner? Purpose doesn't distinguish between the two. It exists in all things, and doesn't discern between oppositions. It isn't necessary to do "what is right" or avoid that "which is wrong"; only do that which is meant to be done by you, and let purpose manifest magnificently in your life.

Your life is the universe fulfilling its purpose. You are not a physical being having a spiritual experience; You are an infinite spiritual being, having a temporary physical experience. And the experience that you are having in this temporary physical world, is part of your infinite spiritual purpose. You have always been fulfilling your purpose beautifully and perfectly.

Mankind is eternally locked in an existential crisis from which he cannot escape by trying. Instead, he must come to accept his fate and embrace the reality of his existence. And only then, can his perception awaken to the reality of his reality. The one-ness with divine spirit. The truth beyond truth and falsehoods. A reality beyond real and imaginary. A world devoid of opposition, and full of spirit.
