Shhhhh. I will let you in on a big secret.
God is not a white haired man sitting on a throne in heaven.
I agree with you Laurie, that there is only one, true living God
And He, She, It encompasses all, sees all, unites all, loves all.
Jesus is all about heart. Jesus preached that if you blindly follow the prescripts of a religion but lack the heart or intent, than you are committing a folly.
“These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.“
-Mark 7:6-7 (New International Version
George Fowler the author of “The Dance of the Fallen Monk” writes:
“A more developed level of insight, witnessed to by the mystics and spiritual masters of the race, tells us that we are invited to grow beyond all such storied details as sin, threats, blood payment, unending fire, pearly gates, golden streets. Both Santa Claus and salvation stories have deeper meanings than what they deliver when heard only literally. I am no longer willing to stop at institutional Christianity’s “Come and be saved” presupposition. I would suggest something more along the lines of the spiritual tradition of the race: “Let’s get beyond all these religious stories and wake up to see and experience Reality as It is.”
And yes, you are right Laurie, I am not a Goddess nor would I claim to be. But She is in me. And He is too. And Jesus talks to me. And what he preaches is love and compassion. With Mary at his side as an equal.
The way I reach divinity – Circles, nature – it does not have to be the way you reach divinity.
But the divinity we reach is all the same.
Let’s get beyond all these religious stories and wake up to see and experience Reality as It is.
