He is not lost … He is right here … Closer than your own breath! Rumi

here

Everyone wants to know where God is. And how to contact her. Some say he’s right here and is ‘closer than your own breath’. What nonsense is this? If she’s right here and ‘closer than our own breath’ then how come we can’t put a finger on that experience?

I’ve wrestled with this dilemma and have found an answer. Our beingness, our very presence, the awareness that we are, which looks out and which experiences all experience, is what is us. This essence is what this quote refers to. This essence is also God expressing itself as us, as this awareness which is our core identity.

You should burn yourself completely. – Suzuki

do it, be it

Have immersive experiences, all of them, any of them! Become the experience. Like they say in Zen, if you’re sitting, just sit. If you’re singing, just sing, become the song. Reminds me of this fine article The Enso Circle.

I am, therefore I may think. I exist therefore the world is. – Namaste Now!

i am

I must be, exist, before I may think. If I can be aware of my thoughts then I must not be my thoughts. Furthermore, the world does not exist for me if I am not. Does world exist at all if I am not?

Time, this moment, exists but for one purpose, to express love. – Namaste Now!

love

Time exists but for one purpose. For us to rediscover the love that we are, being an integral part of the Godhead. We’re on a journey back to God and the way back is through love. The earlier we grasp this Truth, the better and easier our life on Earth becomes. Just love and be love, all else is added as necessary.
