“We have a tendency to fragment, then be concerned about the
truth of just a little part of the whole,” Devorah said to Malachizer the High
Priest.
He frowned. “How else are we to know anything? After all, we
do not eat the whole lamb at once, we eat it one mouthful at a time.” The
priest smiled, proud of himself.
Devorah nodded indulgently. “We are not talking about
eating, Malachizer, we are talking about knowing God. Focusing on a part, the
Ten Commandments for example, is but a way of avoiding, or looking away from
the whole, to what we think we might be better able to comprehend. A better and
far more helpful way to think of God is this: we do not understand the power It
is, either in part or in whole.” Malachizer sputtered. “We do not understand
because we constantly fragment It, continually cutting the great mystery that
It is down to our size, the size of our egos. Yet are we one with It and It
works through us, even tho we don’t comprehend how; therefore our understanding
cannot be necessary. But faith….”
“Faith is important, but not enough!” Malachizer said.
“I agree,” Devorah responded. “We have no choice but to use
all aspects of being human – spiritual, mental, emotional and physical. But how
can faith in reality be ours while we are bent on making it unreal, denying
Wholeness and fragmenting It? And are you really safer in maintaining the
reality of illusions than you would be in joyously accepting the truth for what
It is, and giving thanks for It? Honor the truth that has been given, and be
glad you do not understand it.
