“My body is a temple and my temple needs redecorating” - Joan Rivers
We give our bodies magic powers . We really believe we are bodies and that we didn’t exist before the creation of our body and will die when our body stops working .
The body is at the centre of the dysfunction in the human Mind . We believe it works automonously from us but really only responds to instructions from our Mind . It doesn’t think or feel, or have any opinions . It is similar to a robot which only acts from its programming .
You are not your body . We live in an imaginary world and the body is at the centre of this illusion . We use it to retain our spiritual separation from each other and the Universe . Without a body there would be no little I Am and we would be able to see our true connection with ‘All There Is’ .
Our world focuses on the body . Our survival gene is linked to our belief in the body and we spend the vast majority of our lives attempting to ensure we have enough for its survival .
The Body does not exist and is a symbol of our dream of separation from God . There is no temple !
“No one can escape God’s Final Judgment . Who could flee forever from the truth ? But the Final Judgment will not come until it is no longer associated with fear . One day each one will welcome it, and on that day it will be given him .
He will hear his sinlessness proclaimed around and around the world, setting it free as God’s Final Judgment on him is received . This is the Judgment in which salvation lies . This is the Judgment that will set him free . This is the Judgment in which all things are freed with him .
Time pauses as eternity comes near, and silence lies across the world that everyone may hear this Judgment of the Son of God” :
Holy are you, eternal, free and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of God . Where is the world, and where is sorrow now ?
PostScript :Of course, God’s Final Judgment is transgender and takes in both masculine and feminine or even those who are in the middle of changing sex . Everyone, in fact .
I went into a public-’ouse to get a pint of beer. The publican ‘e ups an’ sez, “We serve no red-coats here.” The girls be’ind the bar they laughed an’ giggled fit to die, I outs into the street again an’ to myself sez I:
O it’s Tommy this, and Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, go away”; But it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins,” when the band begins to play, The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play, O it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins,” when the band begins to play.
I went into a theatre as sober as could be, They gave a drunk civilian room, but ‘adn’t none for me. They sent me to the gallery or ’round the music-’alls. But when it comes to fightin’, Lord! They’ll shove me in the stalls!
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy wait outside”; But it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide, The troopships’ on the tide, my boys, the troopship’s on the tide, O it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide.
Yes, making mock o’ uniforms that guard you while you sleep Is cheaper than them uniforms, an’ they’re starvation cheap; An’ hustlin’ drunken soldiers when they’re goin’ large a bit Is five times better business than paradin’ in full kit.
Then it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy ‘ow’s your soul?” But it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll, The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll, O, it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll.
We aren’t no thin red ‘eroes, nor we aren’t no blackguards too, But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you; An’ if sometimes our conduck isn’t all your fancy paints: Why, single men in barricks don’t grow into plaster saints;
While it’s Tommy this an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy fall be’ind,” But it’s “Please to walk in front, sir,” when there’s trouble in the wind. There’s trouble in the wind, my boys, there’s trouble in the wind, O it’s “Please to walk in front, sir,” when there’s trouble in the wind.
You talk o’ better food for us, an’ schools, an’ fires, an’ all: We’ll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational. Don’t mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face The Widow’s Uniform is not the soldier-man’s disgrace.
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that an’ “Chuck him out, the brute!” But it’s “Saviour of his country,” when the guns begins to shoot; Yes, it’s Tommy this an’ Tommy that, an’ anything you please; But Tommy ain’t a bloomin’ fool – you bet that Tommy sees!
We created the Ego, which is the part of us which believes it can be separated from God/Life/Universe . The ego has strange beliefs such as death, guilt, fear, scarcity and myriad other peculiar beliefs .
We are like Dr Frankenstein who created Life and then found it turned on its creator and ran amok . We created the ego out of fear of God and thought we would be able to hide from God but the ego, as it was born out of fear and hate, is in the image of its creator and like Frankenstein has turned on its maker .
At present, spirit is in the process of undoing our ego . Even though we created it, it so ingrained in the consciousness of humanity it cannot be undone on our own . The spiritual energies which are bombarding us are intended to bring the ego and its belief system to the surface for release . It is painful because the ego is pain and it is inevitable this pain will be experienced before it is released .
Trust, acceptance and perserverance are vital qualities in this time . It is our true desire to leave the ego behind and rejoin with our true Self .
Nothing shows up the dysfunction in the Mind of humanity better than two similar stories from the USA and Britain . In the USA police had to pepper spray customers who were fighting over Nike Air Jordan trainers .
From a Seattle policeman :
“Around 3 [a.m.] there started to be some fighting and pushing among the customers,” Murphy said. “Around 4, it started to get pretty unruly and officers sprayed pepper spray on a few people who were fighting, and that seemed to do the trick to break them up.”
Yesterday, in Britain it went one stage further when a youth was stabbed to death in Oxford St, London again over Nike trainers .
From Mail Online :
“The biggest sales rush in British history was marked by bloodshed yesterday as a teenager was murdered in a suspected row over a pair of trainers.
Bargain hunters looked on in horror as the 18-year-old was stabbed in a branch of Foot Locker on Oxford Street in central London” .
If an alien from outer space landed, he might surmise these trainers must have special powers which enabled you to fly or run as fast as Usain Bolt . But of course, they don’t – they’re just another pair of trainers .
This mad behaviour comes from the belief we NEED something . Once upon a time, we had everything but for some peculiar reason, we decided it wasn’t enough and hence our world of need, want and scarcity was born . We wanted something more than Life but this is actually impossible as Life is all there is .
It goes one stage further . Not only do we have everything, we are everything .
From “A Course In Miracles – Seek Not Outside Yourself” :
No one who comes here but must still have hope, some lingering illusion, or some dream that there is something outside of himself that will bring happiness and peace to him . If everything is in him this cannot be so . And therefore by his coming, he denies the truth about himself and seeks for something more than everything, as if a part were separated off and found where all the rest of it is not .
The physical world is an illusion and what we seek, for example the Nike trainers, does not exist and even when we obtain the object of our desire, the pleasure is only temporary and we seek again, for what we already possess, in something else .
Nothing outside of yourself will bring what you seek . No house, relationship, job, large bank balance or pair of Nike trainers can satisfy you .
Life is ‘All There Is’ and you are Life – why would you want anymore ?
I have received an online Christmas card entitled Enjoy Life Now – It has an expiration date ! . Whilst I understand the message, it is not accurate . The real message should be :
“ENJOY LIFE NOW – IT DOESN’T HAVE AN EXPIRATION DATE !”
