In the Beginning there was the Question:
What Is?
From Boredom to Realization in less than an hour
Boredom: the feeling that I have no good or useful thing to do.
Aimless. Restless. Useless. And this state of mind can only be the result of intentional disconnection.
Cutting one's self off from Source...God.
Ever creative present Mind of Life. Ever active and Truly Purposeful.
It doesn't matter what appears to be wrong with the world for all conceptions of wrong
are the mental walls we have built to prove our separateness to prove there is no god to
rely upon-- to prove that we are faulty, insane, and hopelessly lost.
Why put so much energy in such proof? Why does it not occur more often that we are terribly misguided by such illusions?
Why be willfully miserable? It shouldn't be a natural state of mind or heart.
So I must have agreed to be maliciously entranced somewhere back in time.
Maybe I came into this world simply to see if I could experience such a strange thing as imperfection.
I cannot begin to suggest why such a notion could ever be entertained.
Time....spinning around the sun that is spinning around the galaxy that is spinning through a universe.
Clocks to measure arbitrary increments of time...a steady counting of numbers endlessly repeated...
a the prison of a mind tied to matter...which is a kaleidoscope of ever changing images that we attempt to fixate upon
and yet ever fearing that something worse is to come or that maybe I'll be lucky and enjoy a better thing or situation and
escape the chaos of potential disturbances like wars and economic collapse or family tragedy or any number of imagined calamities.
So I'll not find Peace or Truth in a world based on time and matter. Peace is release...
letting go of the spinning mind and its myriad clingings...trusting that I am not flung out into a
meaningless oblivion, but rather that I exist in Conscious Reality....a Holon of Truth...the
Center of Being...Imperturbable Bliss.
So this mind and body is only put to good in as much as can be focused on allowing the
Light to shine. All fear or worry or wrong can be easily diminished by True Thought..True
Sound...True Love. One simply attunes to the Frequency by listening for it...by breathing
it...by knowing that Only It is So and nothing else can be added or removed to disrupt or
alter that Divine Pattern of Perfection.
This is MY idea of Bliss.

(Written as prompted by reading Gerald O'Donnell 's message for 2011)
Know that this self that travels a road of darkness and dissension is going to reach a dead end.
This is not a road built by the Creator, but by those who thought they could create a better life...a separate life.
How does such madness come to be?
Isn't the question of evil and suffering always rooted in this: If God, then why this?
Unfortunately, many have decided that there is no Divine Origin...no place of original bliss, peace, beauty, joy.
Unhappiness and discontent just exploded and expanded into the many galaxies we peer at through our telescopes.
Cold and meaningless specks of light all these worlds seem to be. We judge the Universe by the horrors that we witness on our own little world of tragic pain. And yet, those lights seem so pretty and aesthetic...many flowers in a field of profound darkness. Many scientists even ramble on about 'dark matter' constituting over 95% of cosmic mass. Stuff we cannot see.
Great beauty always seems transient...overshadowed by the malicious inevitability of death and destruction.
What inspiration we derive from the wonders of life seems squelched by an ever present menace of violence.
Our nature shows constantly remind us of a predatorial system of life. We extend that mentality into our social reality as we struggle to secure our place in the world of competition and money. Few are rich and most are poor in this scheme. And most of the rich are miserably self indulgent. Violent criminals are those who don't play be the rules of this game. Frustration leads to insanity and lack of respect for those who become others rather than brothers.
Humanity seems a terribly broken family that has occupied this world for a very long time. The obsession with money and possessions is imposed upon us. Many pray to God for a piece of wealth as beggars in the king's court. This is a terrible limitation imposed upon our perception of God.
Divine Distortion. No scarcity of That! WHY?
Is there an Evil one that revels in the suffering of man? That perpetuates misery? Many a religious person has concluded such a one to be in evidence. The devil. Pathetic outcaste from heavenly grace. He who love cannot dissuade or affect. He of hate and malice has too many people doing his bidding.
I refuse to believe that any God should create an ungod to undo or obstruct what is intended.
How can God create something out of control? The very idea contradicts the definition of God. How can God fail to communicate Truth in unmistakable ways that leave NO room for doubt or uncertainty. Is there a Pure Truth that cannot be argued against or contradicted by any rational mind? Is there a Way of Being that is Pure and incorruptible? And why so seemingly scarce? Religions even give their holy ones the title of saints.
Well I'm not interested in staying in a divided and conflicted world. I'm not interested in remaining ignorant of True Meaning and purpose.
I am interested in knowing and living according to One who is Integral and Authentic. One whose Nature is Real and incapable of Illusion, or false appearance. One I can see and Love being with...being of...not apart..not separate. Not One that I have to think about or wonder about. One that IS unquestionably present. One that cannot be eclipsed by a mind of many distractions and obfuscations. One who expresses the clear Light of Being in the most pleasant and delightful way possible.
Is this too much too ask?
Do I ask the impossible?
Do I even deserve such a relationship?
Who is worthy?
All who seek the Light should be unmistakably guided.
No path to this Light can be obstructed.
No person can be compelled to seek this Light.
I will or I won't.
I choose the permanent path.
I choose the Way of the One I AM.
