God Waits to Be Known
God wants to be known, and God waits for our interest. God is like the shy girl who insists on being pursued. God does not initiate the courtship. This act is yours alone. But once you make the approach, once you sincerely reach for God, you will not be ignored nor rejected. God does wait for you with longing, loving arms. And once you make contact and experience the divine embrace, then you begin to know the truth and beauty of God’s presence. You become a living witness. “Mine eyes have seen the glory.” These little meetings with God, these experiences of the divine embrace are short and elusive, but they are meant to be accessed again and again, approached repeatedly. When I first set out with this understanding, wasn’t sure how to court God. But it soon became clear to me that God can be approached in infinite ways. There is no one way and there is not necessarily a best way. If the desire is sincere, the means is secondary. What we are after is the genuine experience of loving God, and I’m finding too, being loved by God. |
I believe that in a perfect World we would send the priests to polytechnics to get a degree in science, and the scientists to church to learn how to pray…, and just a thought if Einstein would do that he definitely wouldn’t urge the FDA to build the atomic bombs. Science without Religion is not the way to know God. Blessings, Octavian http://www.myspace.com/octavian7
Dear Melanie,
I think that God from the Bible is a lesser God, like Zeus, Jupiter etc, because according to the Bible God created the Universe, in other words God and the Universe are contained in a Bigger Space… infinite bigger.
I used to believe in the seekers attributes corresponding to the spiritual wisdom, Devin Relief etc, until I found out that everything is just imagination, fantasy.
I used to believe that the Soul can departure the body at will, in the so called OBE experience, then return to the physical body… Ii even experienced that. I do not believe all of these anymore since I realized that Shirley MacLaine, who is the greatest spiritual seeker of our time, could not see that superb Spiral Galaxy in her OBE trip to the Moon (MacLaine‘s biographical book and movie Out on a Limb). The Moon is so close to Earth that everything we see in the night sky from Earth (or Pluto) we see from the Moon and nobody can see a huge spiral galaxy with the naked eye from Earth, like she saw from the Moon.
Shirley MacLaine’s OBE experience is a proof that she had a Lucid Dreaming not an OBE, and the dreams or lucid dreams are not paranormal. Moreover Shirley’s huge spiral galaxy seen from the Moon proves that the Religion and the New Age are based on Lucid Dreaming. If in the far future the humans will be able to levitate it will be because the scientists contributions not because the transcendental meditation promoted by George Harrison, Maharishi and others like them. I know that Shirley MacLaine has lots of astronomers friends (she told me that) and I wonder what kind of friends are those who didn’t tell her the truth about her OBEs… that everything happened only inside her head, inside her brain. Look what happened to those spiritual people like George Harrison from the Beatles, or Steve Jobs from Apple, who unfortunately rejected the doctors in the favor of the alternative medicine. I remember an interview from the mid 90’s with George Harrison, and he said that if the humans would accept the fact that they can heal themselves just with the power of their mind, they would understand that they would never need the doctors again…
According to David (the composite guru character from Shirley’s Out on a Limb), Shirley was chosen to enlighten the Mankind and I agree with that just not in the way the book tried to portrait it. I think Shirley was “chosen” to prove that the Religion and the New Age are based on Lucid Dreaming! Unfortunately on Shirley’s website (shirleymaclane.com), still there are threads about Angels, OBEs etc. We bought Shirley’s movies and books because we adored her; in return she has the responsibility to tell the World the truth.
“God waits to be known”… I believe that we all should open and learn from the Holy Math, Physics, Bio, Chemistry etc books to understand better why we are an intrinsic part of a Mighty One Super Dimension of Space. Spending the time in the glass cathedrals, or on the couch meditating will never help us to evolve, to become Homo Cosmicus. Here is a link to my blog that explains why the Religion and New Age are based on Lucid Dreaming http://www.myspace.com/octavian7/blog
