As for many of you, indoctrinated into other religions & cultures, you no doubt have 'your cherished traditions' - as well. These traditions generally give 'us' a special (warm) feeling, of togetherness & belonging, and sense of 'oneness' - for those with similar thinking . . . but unfortunately, they also tend to keep us (Humanity) separate (& divided) . . .
In an earlier blog post, 'We Are All Unique',
I found his article quite enlightening, as he talked about 'not limiting yourself' to the current 'dogma' of the times. He suggested being open to 'your own truths' - things that are in your 'consciousness', that seem right for you. By doing so, you will remove mysticism - and have your own, true connection with the 'Creator'. By doing this, you will have access to the 'universes knowledge' i.e. truths.
In these difficult times, where leadership; both political & bureaucratic is lacking - the 'dogma' of the past, appears outdated, at best. Your/our truths need to be explored, in our minds eye.
I en-courage you all, to be open to the new ... & Remember, We are all 'Connected'; We are 'One' . . . And, SO IT IS!
A 'Hindi' greeting I would like to share with you.
"NAMASTE"
"I honor the place in you, where spirit lives
I honor the place in you, which is
of Love, of Truth, of Light, & of Peace.
When you are in that place in you,
and I am in that place in me;
then 'We Are One'."
Another quote, I want to share is from "Black Elk", & a famous Medicine Man & Holy Man of the Oglala "Lakota" (Sioux); & second (2nd) cousin of "Crazy Horse".
In a Vision, Black Elk related:
"And while I stood there, I saw more than I can tell,
and understand more than I saw;
for I was seeing in a sacred manner,
the shapes of all things, in the spirit,
and the shape of all shapes,
as they must live together like 'one being'.
And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people,
was one of many hoops, that made one circle;
wide as daylight & as 'starlight';
and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree,
to shelter all the children - of one mother & one father.
And I saw that it was holy."
