I am getting an early start, today. I have an appointment to get a haircut/beard trim at 10:30. We have a neighbor who has a salon in her home. When I say neighbor, we live in the country, and I can say, neighbor, when the person lives several miles away. She is only 2 miles away, so she is a close neighbor.
I have said before, I write about, what I am trying to learn. When I talk about, living in the moment, being non judgmental, giving up the past, etc. I am sure, I am no further along, than most of you. I feel keenly the need to grow. I can imagine how beautiful life would be, if we realized our 'oneness', and lived to serve each other. I, also, think it is a logical consequence of our evolution.
Likewise, I have said I am not a seer. I can't see the future any better than anybody else. I have read a lot of stuff, from people who think they can, I am pretty skeptical. However, I do feel we, humankind, are learning to give up many crazy ideas of the past. I think we are seeing how we have suffered with ideas of separation, competition and striving to be what we are not. We have bought into, the negative of religion, and ignored the kernel of truth. We have accepted the idea of unworthiness and have, given ourselves over to folks, who control by dangling, the idea of salvation, in front of us.
We have missed the gold nugget of the teachings, that we are all one, that we are love, that all there is, is love, and that we are all part of Source. The great ones, taught us, we didn't need to do anything to be saved. The whole idea of being saved was a corrupt idea. We are okay just the way we are. We need to unlearn the craziness. We have nothing to learn, we have much to unlearn.
We have been carefully taught, to look outside ourselves, for answers, when all the time they were inside. We, always, knew that love was the answer. We, always, knew we wanted to feel loved more than anything else. In our illusionary state, we substituted many things for the feeling of love. Many, many things; we chased after all kinds of material things, accolades, pleasures, achievements etc. when all we wanted was love. Not to say, the pleasures of life, the accolades, the achievements don't have value; they have their own value. We cheat ourselves, when we think they are substitutes for love. Nothing can replace love. All is ephemeral, except love. Unfortunately, we are so immersed in the illusion, that we think love is ephemeral, when it is the one thing that is not.
I do not have an original idea and I am not a prophet. What you read here is what I have gleaned from my studies. I feel humankind is on the verge of rediscovery. I think we are about to move out of a very dark age. I believe the last couple hundred years, may have been the darkest, we have experienced for many eons. Can we imagine, the absurdities, we seemed to accept; the idea of a just war?! The idea that killing people is a solution? The idea, that it okay for one group, to lord it over another? The idea, that one group or person, is closer to truth than another? The idea that one has to believe something to be saved? And saved from what? It is okay for one country, to tyrannize others, and steal their wealth? It is okay for some to have much more than others? There is no end, to the examples, of the insanity that we seem to accept.
But, perhaps, we have not accepted these absurdities. Perhaps, we felt helpless. Perhaps, we were waiting for the right time to make our opinion heard. Perhaps, all along, we were waiting for the time, when we could express ourselves without ridicule. Most people, I know, agree with these concepts. I think we are waking up, to the idea, we don't have to live in the darkness anymore. We were controlled by division and fear. We can see through that. We don't want to do it anymore.
We are just discovering how powerful our minds are. We are just discovering our minds are linked, and we can give up the old group consciousness, and trust a consciousness based on Love. What would our world be like if we really truly loved each other?
The time to give up the insanity; is now. NOW! Let us bless ourselves and our neighbor. Let us serve each other.
I got to get a haircut and do some chores. Shine your light brightly! Let's leave the ugly past behind.
Love and Peace, Gregg
