We are the ones whose wondering
attention has turned to the great questions of life.
At any given moment, we only perceive
one side – and of that, typically the most minuscule portion – of
the great Möbius strip of life in duality.
This plays into the illusion that there
can be something outside of ourselves for us to do that will make any
difference to anything whatsoever. From the point of view of that
which is permanent, such a false idea can only be absurd delusion.
Our senses cannot tell us anything of
that which is permanent. They perceive symbols only.
The forces of Nature are, in
themselves, quite neutral and blind. Nature is a virtual reality
hologram projected by Mind. This hologram comprises all matter,
energy, space, and time.
The cycles of time, of birth and death,
creation and destruction, descending and ascending, operate on a sort
of looping autopilot based on cosmic laws. The cosmos is a clockwork
mechanism.
The principle of Balance maintains that
all actions are ultimately null and void.
All creation borrows against the One,
and is eventually repaid in the coin of the One.
Nothing can be added to, or taken away
from, that which is permanent.
Consciousness, then, is the only thing
that matters.
Consciousness chooses, now.
The outer is immaterial, the inner is
all.
No doing or not-doing can solve the
puzzle of life. Only choice. Only the attitude which informs our
doing or not-doing.
Condemnation compounds the puzzle.
Reconciliation dissolves it.
Become reconciled to yourself. Know
that you are not what you appear to be: limited in space and time,
unable to undo the chains that bind you.
You are infinite consciousness
appearing as an individual being. The story of that individual being
is the trajectory of this infinite consciousness within that
dreamed-up character arc.
The only thing worth knowing, having,
or being is Love. All else you might desire already emanates from
there: your true divine nature as Love.
The path of reconciliation with your
eternal nature is forgiveness.
Lay down your weapons. The world is not
your enemy.
The world invites you to forgive.
This is the true purpose of all we see
in the dream from which we struggle so mightily to awaken.
Our awakening, our emancipation, eludes
us as long as we toil in vain. Give up that struggle and take up the
real work.
Forgive. That is all. All else will
come of its own accord. You need not concern yourself with the
details of the future. All is in good hands, the most capable hands.
Infinite consciousness conspires
together with your heartfelt intent to be free. The universe has got
your back.
Things won’t typically go how you
thought they might. You won’t be an overnight success story.
Setbacks are to be expected. That’s the way it goes.
Think of this: if universe is out to
give you anything and everything your soul desires, and if your
soul’s deepest desire is to find a way out of the madhouse, then
isn’t that already a done deal? All you need to do is walk the
path.
You may be shown the most disgusting,
perverted, inhuman things – appearing as part of the world, the
people around you, and even the character you seem to be yourself.
All there to be forgiven.
Forgiveness is not automatic. There’s
no ritual to make it happen. There’s no need to make it happen
faster or better. You are simply invited to choose it at your own
pace.
Whatever comes into your awareness as
something other than Love, forgive. If that is too much at the
moment, then forgive the one identifying with the thought that to
forgive, in this case, is asking too much of the personal me.
There is no personal me or you. This is
a concept for now, perhaps supported by extramundane experiences with
trance states or psychedelics, or even simply the wordless deep
thought that arises from being still with nature. It is true.
The Sons of God descended into hell,
one after the other. Lucifer, the bright and morning star, was the
first. Heirs to glory, they chose to turn their backs on truth and
forfeited their divine birthright as children of the heavenly King.
But the archangels, led by Michael,
vowed not to abandon their brothers to eternal torment in the vain
pursuits of spiritual blindness. Their work was subtle, an
exceedingly long game, to tease out from the depths of illusion these
precious lost souls. Against the will of their quarry they could do
nothing. Their hope lay in the spark of divinity still burning within
each breast, which forever longed to return to the glory of heaven,
to remember their true nature as innocent brothers in the Light.
This is a symbolic story. It has
relevance within the illusion. The fact is that we have never left
our Father’s side. His fullest Love is ours in every moment. We are
left with the choice of whether to receive it. But we cannot embrace
lies and truth. Therefore it is the lies with which we must contend.
They have no power. Only consciousness
choosing to invest belief in them, gives them the semblance of it.
Believe the truth: you are free. The
bonds of corruption are a dream. Now all that is left is to awaken.
We are the dragon.
