Not Being A Bystander In Your Own Life.
Love is the highest expression of consciousness. It’s the creative power behind all that exists, other than what humans create through negativity. As we become ever more loving, we fulfill the purpose of existence.
Divine love – the highest form of love – is entirely non-material, but intermingles with and saturates all the physical space in our universe and beyond. This love is accessible to our soul. When our soul has been transformed by divine love in response to our prayers, the door to a higher dimension opens and, after we leave this world, we can step into the celestial realm of the spirit world.
Divinity is free. But for many, these great truths seem highly improbable, so it’s easier to reject them than to accept them. Living solely within the highly localised consciousness represented by our material mind is a freewill choice that seriously restricts our ability to receive the many blessings that God wants to shower on us.
As we progress on the divine path, less and less of the fruits of that journey can be recognised by the perceptions of the material mind. What exists in a higher dimension is invisible to the mind, but not to the developing soul. At some point, the material mind becomes irrelevant, except for dealing with worldly affairs. For the mind to become a mere bystander in our life is a situation that few can easily accept.
The reality that we aren’t our mind can sometimes be accepted conceptually but rarely is it accepted and experienced as fact. We stop being a bystander when we step into divine awareness, which exists only in the soul mind. The material mind plays a role when starting out on the divine journey, since the will must be directed to the process of praying and other activities that secure us on the path. Thereafter, it becomes increasingly irrelevant, as the soul mind comes into ascendancy.
Our soul knows the physical body will die and is indifferent to that fact. Its own existence is unaffected. This shows that the part of our consciousness that in many people is terrified of dying has somehow split off from the soul. At least it appears to have when viewed from the perspective of the material mind. But the soul encompasses the material mind, which is just an adjunct, something our minds struggle to truly acknowledge.
The way to the highest truth – through divine love – is simple, but few accept it because they can’t visualise what their undeveloped consciousness can’t comprehend. That’s why it starts out as a journey of faith. Those who don’t invest a modicum of faith can never take the journey.
The idea that existence is no more meaningful than the mind subjectively decides it is, is an understandable but incorrect viewpoint. Life is far more meaningful than we’re capable of comprehending. God is not constrained to work within parameters that meet mankind’s expectations. The purpose of divine love is to remove our spiritual blindness and open us up to experiencing the wonders of God’s creation. As divine love accumulates in our soul, it provides us with a new consciousness and new soul perceptions that allow us to explore ever more of creation. Our spiritual guides, who are further along the path than we are, help us in this transformation.
For the spiritually blind to see, requires a deep awakening within. Not just the acceptance of some new ideas, however profound, but a deep remaking of our core being by adding a new consciousness that is itself pure love. This is accomplished by the transformative power of divine love.
