Jesus Audio Blog for Saturday July 9th
We are All One! That is easy to say but very difficult for
you to accept and understand because in your illusory world all seem
separate. Your modern physicists have finally discovered and accepted
that absolutely everything is connected to everything else that
you can see in the observable universe. And yet in your daily lives
you live constantly with an intensely strong sense of separation because
you are surrounded by individual impenetrable or non-integrated forms,
forms that resist coalescence, unlike the air that you breathe and the
water that you drink that easily and constantly flow and intermix.
Sometimes in powerfully loving relationships there is a strong sense of
oneness, but nevertheless you still occupy individual bodies. It is
indeed very confusing.
Here in the spiritual realms, from which you truly are not
separated, we mingle and mix with one another easily to exchange ideas
or to share our love for each other, and when we choose to differentiate
ourselves for whatever reason we just flow apart. But we are never separated from each other, our eternal state is at One with God, the Supreme Creator in Whom all exist, and, therefore, with each other. You have all chosen to experience separation, and until you change that choice, that is what you will experience.
Why would you continue to choose separation when it leaves you
feeling alone, abandoned, and without love? It is because the illusion
has become so real for you, a place in which billions of individuals
appear to be constantly struggling for physical survival and because you
identify utterly and completely with your bodies which always seem to
be under some kind of physical or emotional threat. But bodies are just
vehicles of limitation that you built and have chosen to occupy. You
can choose to remove those limitations and experience a sense of
vastness, of completeness, and of Oneness with All That Exists. But you
have become so accustomed to limitations that you fear to live without
them.
Your whole way of human life is based on a very powerful belief in limitation!
However, by going within to your quiet and holy inner sanctuary you
can experience the vastness that is God, Creation, Love, and, therefore,
You! To do so you need surrender to the divine flame of Love
burning constantly within you, to let go of your beliefs, whatever they
may be because they are very effective illusory distractions, and open
your hearts so that the Love within can embrace you and demonstrate to
you that you are as vast as all of Creation, as vast as God, and
eternally embraced by the Love that is Reality. To fully experience
that state would instantly destroy your physical form, your human body,
because the energy of that state is infinitely powerful. Nevertheless
you can experience a sense of that divine state, your natural state,
that will permanently banish all your doubts about your Oneness with
God.
You are on Earth to go through the awakening process and to assist
others to do so. To awaken is a choice that only you can make, and in
truth all living entities have already made the choice to do so, but you
have not yet chosen when to do so. That choice of timing can, naturally, only be made in the eternal now moment, and when that happens you will
awaken. Presently, those of you reading or listening to this message
know this, but you are patiently biding your time as you assist others
to make that same choice. You may feel that you have no choice, that
you are waiting for some future divine event to wake you up, but in
truth you always have the freedom to choose, and the moment of that
choosing is drawing ever closer.
It is a confusing paradox to be experiencing life as a human within
the space/time envelope while at the same time knowing that space and
time are unreal. That is why it is essential that you go within daily
to connect with the Love that resides there. That safe inner sanctuary
is the doorway through which you enter Reality, the divine realms in
which utter joy is eternally experienced.
Often, when you go within, your mind fills with distracting thoughts –
all the shoulds, anxieties, and “must dos” that daily life as a human
seems to demand of you. This is merely your egos attempting to draw you
out from that place of divine peace and back into the illusion. Just
acknowledge those ego thoughts, acknowledge that they are distracting
you from your place of peace, but do not engage with them. If you do
get drawn in, as often happens, when you realize this just intend to
return to that place of inner peace without any judgment of the fact
that you were distracted. Distractions are an essential aspect of the
illusion that you built and initially it is difficult to disassociate
yourselves from them for more than a few moments.
Reciting mantras, focusing on a candle or on your breath, or playing
quiet music intended to assist you get into a meditative state can be
helpful. But everyone of you are different and respond differently to
the various methods that can assist you to reach inner peace in
meditation, and of course there is no requirement that insists that you
use a prescribed method for meditation. Do what feels right and
comfortable for you, and practice that for a few weeks to give
yourselves time to adjust to your new routine. Changing routines in an
effort to find one that works better for you can be self-defeating, as
it may well be your ego’s attempts to keep you distracted. Relax,
allow, and as thoughts or distractions arise do not engage with them.
However, when you do and become aware, just set the intent to return to
quietness, and realize that there is no such thing as failure.
Meditation is a practice to enable you to connect with your true
Self, the Self that is One with God. Concert pianists spend long
periods of time daily practicing to maintain their professional
competence, so do not be surprised at the amount of practice that you
have to put into meditation to find the peace and stillness that you
seek. Do not judge yourselves as successful or unsuccessful and do not
seek to see yourselves making progress because that is just further
distraction. Just set a regular time and place for your practice, and
when the time you have allowed is over go back to your daily living. If
you maintain your practice without expectations you will find peace and contentment.
Your loving brother, Jesus.
