Great Mystery
Many times in the past I have
written about how and why I refer to Universal Source in the numerous
ways that I do. Universal Source is none other than the ultimate Sacred Energy
that is responsible for you and me and the whole of creation manifesting in
physical form. I addition I have shared on numerous occasions that I am unable
to say with absolute assurance who the architect of existence known as creation
is, and whether or not it is a singular Sacred Energy or Spirit, dual Sacred
Energies or Spirits, or a trinity of Sacred Energies or Spirits. Humanities
point of reference concerning all of this has simply been what we have been
told for as far back as the beginning of time and space. Nonetheless, I do know
one thing for certain; there is something that is much greater than all of us,
something that is omniscient out there and/or within us that ultimately is totally
responsible for divinely creating and governing us to some degree, as well as
every form of creation that is a part of this magnificent physical realm that each
of us as well as the whole of creation is a part of, and makes up what is known
as the Divine Oneness.
Sometimes I call the divinity
that I am speaking of Mother/Father Goddess/God, Great
Spirit, Divine Oneness, Universal Source, and most practical
to me Great Mystery as many of my native ancestors from Turtle Island
call our Creator. For those of you who are unaware of the term Turtle
Island I will enlighten you. Turtle Island is what the Americas were known as
by its indigenous inhabitants. No matter what name I use at any given time and
there are many more than I shared above; that which is most important above all
else is as follows. I completely acknowledge the Source of the whole of
creation and completely yield to Its divine unchanging purpose and
divine perfect will. Many will argue over this great divinity being called
anything other than God or Father God. However, that is due to
the erroneous beliefs and teachings that the christian way of life and belief
is the only righteous way of living and believing, and all else is sacrilege
and pure insanity, and it leads to eternal damnation. As far as I see that is
totally absurd, and there could be nothing more ridiculous than that. We must
venture into this realm of true spiritual awakening with a completely open mind;
otherwise we will fall into the ancient ruts that were created by the countless
mis-takes and fears of others that were sometimes created innocently, yet other
times created intentionally by those who sort to rob us of our divinely
ordained inner spiritual power.
Why am I writing these scripted
words on this particular subject? I am writing these scripted words as I am
because my spiritual consciousness has been touched like never before by the
experience of being with my sister Thelma during her last months of life, and
seeing her display the greatest level of gratitude I have ever witnessed in her
most challenging time during her 70 years of life. I told her that she was
teaching me gratitude in a greater way than I have ever experienced before in
life. However, it did not stop there; she also taught me what Forgiveness and Unconditional
Love in action is truly all about. Learning from her during her greatest life
challenge caused me to examine many things in great detail, especially how I
understand, honor, and live my life. One of the major lessons I learned was, no
matter where we are in life there is always room and a need for change; and
sometimes that change can be major. Most of the time those people and things we
have become familiar with and see as ordinary come to teach us the greatest
lessons in life, and many times they come from our elders and sometimes even
babies. One of the major keys that will open life up to us is totally dropping ego
and being completely opened up to learn from everyone and everything around us.
I like how Wayne Dyer defines ego, Edging God Out. There is a lesson to be
learned from every situation we are confronted with, no matter how minuscule
the situation may seem. That is why it is so important that we live life
consciously at all times, even when we are playing; having fun is serious
business.
I was never more conscious than
the last few months I spent with Thelma as she was making transition (the
process of moving to the next plane of existence); also the time a few years
ago when I spent time with my son Manny (Immanuel) when he was in a coma for
two months and all of his major organs were shutting down, and it was believed by
the medical staff that he was going to die. Both times caused me to question
what this thing called life is truly all about, and what I should be doing with
my life as I sojourn through this temporal physical experience we call life.
The major question I must as myself as a spiritual being going through a
physical experience is this; how much do I believe because of the exposure to other
people’s experiences and beliefs? I cannot and must not go through life
standing on the shoulders of others beliefs and experiences; and that is
exactly what is being done when what I believe and say I know is based solely
on that which I have been told. My life must be governed by my personal experiences;
exactly as my extremely important intimate relationship with Great
Mystery must and can only be. It is utterly impossible to have a
relationship with Great Mystery outside of it being extremely personal and
intimate, and that cannot be done through another person’s experiences. How does
all of the confusion, mis-direction, and pain occur in our lives? All of the
confusion, mis-direction and pain occur in our lives due to the undeniable fact
of a non-existent or faulty intimate relationship with Goddess/God. We need no
mediator to have an intimate relationship with the Almighty. Do we need and
would we accept someone telling us that the only way we could have a
relationship with our parents is to have someone as a go between to communicate
directly with them in order for us to have an intimate relationship with them?
Of course we do not need anyone our anything for such a relationship with our
parents. In reality that would not be an intimate relationship, it would be a
casual distant relationship. It is exactly the same when it comes to the
ultimate relationship we will have with our Sacred Parent Mother/Father Goddess/God;
it must and can only be between us and Goddess/God.
When we are consciously in the
spiritual relationship we are ordained to be in with Great Mystery, we consciously
become the Sacred Creators of our reality that we have been created to be. In
that conscious relationship we come to understand the magnificence that resides
within us. That magnificence manifests in many ways, one of which is through
our thoughts. We come to realize that our thoughts are but the first step in
the awesome progression of creation. We think a thought, then we speak forth
that thought, and finally that thought becomes a tangible reality in our
journey through life. That is truly sacred power, and such power should only be
used when we are fully conscious of who we are and who we are eternally one
with. We are none other than Spiritual Beings that are divinely and eternally
connected to our Sacred Parent Mother/Father Goddess/God; that is
the greatest revelation we will ever enter into during this temporal sojourn
through this dense physical plane. Knowing who we are, and who we are eternally
connected to happens to be the Master Key that opens all doors and reveals all
truths. We all must do everything that we possibly can do to completely ready
ourselves for such Divine Access. Are you ready for infinite possibilities to
become transformed into Infinite Realities? I Am!
