Experienced, Not Explained


The truth of our reality as spiritual beings having earthly experiences can only be experienced. It cannot be described and in cannot be explained, even tho I keep trying to do that in these blogs and elsewhere. The ego’s world, even with the best of everything—health, wealth and happiness can add nothing to who we really are already – without further effort - children of God. But the ego’s world can blind us to spirit when we identify with it.

 

It is not possible to identify with the ego world and know our reality. Only one is true. Our experience of our reality as spirit--grace, unconditional love, deep calm, certainty and knowingness saves us, not from ourSelves but from our illusions of ourSelves. Our joy in the ego’s world, even with the best of everything—health, wealth and happiness is fleeting, leaving us with an ‘is that all there is?’ feeling, because nothing but the realization of our reality is worthy of us.

 

This is not to suggest we renounce life and go live in a monetary. We believe we are here in the ego’s world and will go on seeking the best of it for ourselves and everyone and everything else. But it is to suggest that we seek our truth and reality first, understanding that the whole power of ourSelves lies in all of us and not in anyone of us alone. Our function as spiritual beings first, is to work together, because apart from each other we cannot function at all.

 

Just as the truth of our reality as spiritual beings having earthly experiences can only be experienced, not described nor explained, so our reality as one child of one father/mother must be experienced to be known. We’ve all had a taste of this in group activities and teams when somehow, miraculously, it all comes together and we accomplish something grand, something none of us could have accomplished alone.
