There’s only one truth, one reality, and that is
Divine consciousness. I am Spirit, You are Spirit, All is Spirit.
Sooner or later, everyone wonders: Has my life a purpose? Is there a higher power? Where did I come from? What will happen after I die?
Most human beings have an ego—a sense of Self—that is only a meager representation of the truth. The swan that was born among ducks derived its sense-of-Self by how the ducks saw him: ugly. Where does your sense-of-Self come from? How do you identify yourSelf?
You may say, "I’m an accountant, mother of three daughters, and a recovering trauma survivor.” But is that who you are? Is that the essence of your being? Take a deep breath, close your eyes and strip yourself of all your labels, possessions and character traits. What’s left?
The truth of the matter is that you are Spirit. Not just an apprentice Spirit … you are 100%, full fledged, genuine Spirit. You don’t have to do anything to become Spirit … you are Spirit.
We are all part of the same Divine entity (God, Spirit, Allah, Brahman, Cosmos), but like water, not even Spirit can afford to be stagnant. Hence, Spirit (you and I and the rest of us) created earth, as a place in time and space to engage in an ongoing process of rejuvenation.
We are Spirit, having a human experience. As spiritual beings, we’ve accepted "physical" form to joyfully re-create and re-define our true Self, which is non-physical, which is Divine Consciousness.
