TOGETHER, WE ARE NOT ONLY SAFER, WE ARE NOT ONLY AT PEACE. TOGETHER WE UNLOCK OUR TRUE SPIRITUAL POTENTIAL AND THE GLORIOUS TRUTH OF OUR SPIRITUAL DESTINY. OUR SPIRITUAL DESTINY IS TO BE ONE WITH EACH OTHER, IS TO BE ONE IN OUR SACRED AND MYSTICAL PILGRIMAGE TO THE SPIRITUAL TRUTH OF THE ALL OF CREATION, THAT ALL IS ONE. SUCH IS THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF OUR TIME, SUCH IS THE SPIRITUAL REDEMPTION OF OURSELVES THAT AWAITS OUR EMBRACING OF EACH OTHER’S HOLY AND SACRED WAYS, THAT AWAITS OUR EMBRACING OF OUR SHARED SPIRITUAL JOURNEYS.
If there is one attribute that will, and indeed must, characterise our coming times: it is HARMONY. The TRUTH that is deep-set and deep-hidden within the Cosmos is that ALL is ONE. We must learn to accept that and understand that and so slowly, perhaps painfully, but in the end gloriously LIVE that truth. In spite of the ‘modern’ times we now inhabit, our prevailing, all-consuming, invariably corrosive and invariably destructive instinct is to be tribal. We can be tribal with regards to our skin colours, with regards to our faiths, and of course with regards to our perceived tribes. Every tribe sings its own solo note. Only all tribes in harmony together can sing a tune. All faiths call a single note to God. Only all faiths in harmony together can sing a hymn. When the multitude of paths to God, at last recognise each other’s ways, and indeed rejoice in each other’s ways, will a beautiful harmonic be formed that will act like an ascending ladder, a glorious channel of beautiful, harmonic light, that facilitates the ascent of man to heavenly heights, and a reaching down of the heavens to man.
Once again, we must embrace the fact that we now live at the most extraordinary turning point in the spiritual story of humanity. We at last live in a time when we begin to properly understand that separation, differentiation, and above all exclusivity, are no longer appropriate, no longer of value for us as individuals, and for us as humanity as a whole. We will only achieve peace in our world, we will only properly provide for our world, when we accept what is already whispering to us in our souls: that we ALL are ONE, that we are ONE people, ONE humanity finding our way upon our Beautiful Mother Earth, our Holy Gaia, that we also must accept as being ONE with us. When it comes to our temporal, or non-spiritual lives, we know that this is a truth that we must ultimately accept, and the sooner the better. We can only heal our social and political lives, we can only heal our personal lives, and we can only heal our planet, our beautiful Mother Earth, our Holy Gaia, when we accept and make manifest in every aspect of our lives, that truth that we are ONE with each other, and ONE with our Mother Earth. And what makes this an extraordinary time in our human story, is that at last we all know this to be a truth. We know it, but we are still struggling to live by that truth. What, perhaps, we do not yet realise is the remarkable and wonderful surge of energy that will fill us as individuals and as humanity when we at last live by the truth of our ONENESS.
Like wise in the spiritual arena. We are too much locked into our tribal view of our religions, our desperate sense of exclusivity and specialness, with regards to our own particular faiths. Yet again, deep in our hearts we know that all members of all faiths are on the same spiritual path. We are distinguished only by how inclusive we are, only be how fair and decent and loving we are, rather than by which particular set of doctrines we might cling to. The great spiritual turning point for humanity, the profound and sacred moment in our spiritual story is upon us, if we would only live by the truth that we are all spiritual pilgrims seeking our path to God or the divine, whatever we might call it. Peace will be upon us, when we embrace all the faiths of all the world: spiritual peace, sacred and mystical peace, a profoundly spiritual healing peace. Spiritual inclusivity is our mission and our destiny. And by embracing that spiritual inclusivity, we shall not only bring our own love and peace to our planet, we shall open up our planet, at last, to new and beautiful spiritual awakenings, we shall open up sacred channels to the heavens, so that spirituality can flow down to us again. By cutting ourselves off from each other, we have cut ourselves off from the heavens. Spiritual and beautiful glory awaits us, but only when it is indeed ALL of us.
All faiths in harmony,
Will be a ladder of light to the heavens.
For US to reach upwards,
For the heavens to reach downwards:
To US.
