The TRUTH is
another area that confuses us. People following religions seem
to feel that they have the truth while everyone else is a
little off, scientists seems to think the same about what they
do and different spiritual approaches give the same impression
too.
For example;
-
If you are
a Christian then your truth is that homosexuality is an abomination
in the eyes of god. If you are homosexual here then you are
an outcast and a spiritual no hoper.
-
If you are
a homosexual Native American then you are a two spirited
person and treated with great reverence and have a much
valued position in their society.
-
If you are
a homosexual seeker of god consciousness then your little
self is of no consequence, it does not matter.
Another
example;
-
If you are
in touch with the beyond with any beings except angels then
you are courting with demons are lost and need exorcising as
far as Christians are concerned.
-
If on the
other hand you are a lightworker then the demons turn out to be
divine beings and should be trusted implicitly.
-
And to the
seeker of god consciousness this is just another area of Maya
or illusion and is of no importance.
Ok, we have
picked some very obvious contradictions here but nevertheless
each position above would be very strongly defended by each
party as the truth. What is considered the truth to one human
is it seems another humans poison. Each of the above examples
is considered to be a representation of spirituality within
the context of each belief system presented.
So, how can
this be? Well we feel that if you actually
do create your own reality (which by direct experience works
for us) then you will make your beliefs come true in that
manifestation and hence they will confirm themselves as the
truth. So the possibility is that you create the truth that
you want to have. If this is the case then in reality there may be no in the moment
TRUTH only that you can manifest your own.
Now if this
is true, then spiritual paths are in one sense an illusion and
nothing more than a manifestation of one persons vision of the
truth which is then believed and recycled (and hence
reinforced - hey so it must be really really true).
We feel that
this may even apply to the awareness achieved within God
Consciousness. That is, if you want to make this your truth
then fair enough. When you have a focus to look for the truth
then what can you expect to manifest? Can you do this without
having either your own ideas or someone else's imposed on that
movement and exploration? If you cannot do this then you will
be taken to a certain outcome which will best represent the
truth to you.
What would
spiritual paths be like if they said that they would move you
into truthlessness? Could you handle this? They do say that
you have to step into the unknown, but what about stepping
into a truthless unknown? What would that leave you to hang
onto - possibly nothing but yourself. Hey, but then you would
actually have to have yourself to do that? Could it be that if
you actually really really do have ALL OF YOURSELF then you
don't need to rely on knowing something NOT EVEN THE TRUTH?
These
contradictions are partially what caused us to forge our own
explorative approach. We were becoming increasingly aware of
not only these major contradictions but the more important
subtle ones. So, we asked the difficult question - what if
everything presented so far is either wrong or severely
limited. What if all that is considered spiritual is just
ideas, made personally true through manifestation? How can we
go past this?
Well, if you
can use your focusing power of intent to manifest
confirmations of whatever truth you believe in then can you
not use the same creative potential to manifest a reality that
can show you all your illusions. So, this is what we did. We
asked with
all our focus, will and intent for us to see all our limited
understandings, all our illusions, all our faulty ideas, all
our belief systems, all our limited knowings and so on. We
asked to be moved beyond all these limitations and we asked to
be given everything that we needed to make this happen and
that was preventing us from achieving unity or wholeness or
balance within ALL THAT WE ARE. We also asked to be taken
beyond all assumptions, all our preconceptions, all our
expectations all of the time so that we could escape from
these loops and we asked that this be done without any exceptions and
without any compromises. In other words we were saying -
"We don't know", let us see what really is, show us
our illusions (whether we will be happy about what we find or
not) and this is all of our illusions including those that
relate to so called spiritual paths - take us beyond what has
so far been presented.
So, what
happened when we did this. In the past, on this level we have been attracted to certain
truths or paths while others don't resonate at all. We became
aware that in previous existences we had the same or similar
tendencies. Now as we were also resolving
limitations with ALL PARTS OF ALL THAT WE ARE, then we just
kept going looking at ALL THAT WE CONTAIN. This exploration
eventually got us to levels where our pure soul form resides. We
could then feel and understand what our souls are like at that
level. From this we could then understand our soul qualities,
the influences we had been subjected to as a soul, our
soul parents, soul culture, our soul creation and so on. We then
over time began to understand what
attracted us to certain presented assumed truths as these
fitted with regards our past soul experience.
Although most
of you wont believe this, for each of us, our human lives are
telling us about the limitations our souls hold. Unfortunately
these limitations include what is presented as spiritual paths
here. These are representations of what our soul is attracted
to and following where it exists at the highest levels. In
other words the same contradictions are present there as here,
in some form, the same paths are presented there, the same spiritual truths
are argued over and so on. There is nothing inherently
limiting in the human experience that you are not experiencing
as a limitation in your soul at soul level.
