An Emply Space

Knowing people and events as God knows them – a wonderful, liberating experience – is only possible when I interpret myself, people and events as God would – without judgment, with love, and without the ego’s interpretation of myself, people and events. The ego makes bodies and specifics to keep us busy in its illusory world and to keep us unable to see that world differently, with spirit, instead of ego.

Unlike guilt and fear, which are of the ego and must be projected as specifics in the ego’s illusory world, from the mind that thinks it is a body in that illusory world, love does not have to be projected. Love being true, completely abstract and beyond all specifics, simply is and we remember its abstract being as we make room for it through forgiveness – letting go of the investment in the specifics of our ego lives. This doesn’t mean we deny we’re in the world, but reduce our investment in being here and take it less seriously.

“An empty space not seen as filled, an unused interval of time not seen as spent and fully occupied, become silent invitations to the truth to enter, and to make itself at home. For what you, as an ego, leave vacant God, your true Self and reality, will fill. There are no symbols – words and other specifics – for this, for nothing points (which is what symbols do – point) beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than everything? There is no symbol for totality.

“Reality is ultimately known without a form, un-pictured and unseen. Habits and rituals vanish, symbols fade, and nothing that the eyes have ever seen nor ears have heard remains to be perceived. A power wholly limitless has come, not to destroy, but to receive its own. Give welcome to the power beyond the ego’s illusory world of symbols and limitations. As It merely is, so we, merely are.”

There is nothing to prove and nothing to do, but be one with It and allow our oneness to manifest. That is the purpose of an empty space not seen as filled, an unused interval of time not seen as spent and fully occupied; to silently invite the truth to enter, and to make itself at home…..
