OBLIGATION AND THE SACRED COVENANT

what exactly is this obligation and why is it that there are no conscious memories of it.

life is a sacred covenant.

we are raised from spirit energy and transformed into matter.
the alchemy of life had begun as we took our first breath.
our ultimate mission and obligation in life, is to transcend the matter and return back to spirit.

at this stage there will always be the questions.
there are always the doubters and skeptics.
how is it that i am able to say these things?
what proof do i have of this ?
others will say it is not in the parameters of my belief system.
who exactly are you(me) to say these things without offering a shred of evidence.

with this feedback from people, all i can say, is that this is not a belief--it is a knowingness.
no !, i cannot prove anything, i say.
i can only tell it the way i know it !

if i was to ask what proof do others offer, that what i say is not true---there would be silence.
some would go straight into the books of their holy words and quote the passages, trying to prove that what i know is false.

there is a saying , each to their own.
the problem with this is that this becomes exclusive to those that who follow a certain path and does not account for any deviations.

where is the holistic view----

the universal view which is all inclusive.

the way the world is today, with all the believers in religion, why is it that the seeds that have been sown and are still sowing are not reaping harmony and peace.

if the religious point of view, is so strong and binding, why do we have so much collateral damage.

we as sentient beings, each have to take a stand and the responsibility.
this is where the obligation comes in.
it awaits the realisation of the ultimate truth.

one of the few religions that has never gone to war is Buddhism.
why is that so ?
could it be that the belief system contains something that is so inspiring that prevents people from killing each other.

as the bible says, what you sow, ye reap.
they take ultimate responsibility for their destiny.
what one does in one's life, will be reaped in this life and others.

i am not suggesting that everyone go out and become a Buddhist.
on the contrary, all this is illustrating is the practicality of the universal laws.

to take responsibility for one's actions, could and would change the world dramatically, if practiced wide enough.
this does not mean that one should change overnight and believe in another religion.

the challenge is how does one take what one believes and opens up oneself to see how others believe.
in that process, without judgement, one would be able to start to see more of the wholeness, than the limiting view and perceptions of a tunnel.

it becomes the how to of expanding one's horizons in the belief department.

young people travel from their individual cities, town, villagers to explore other places.
in the process their viewpoints change and they become worldly.

why is it that people are afraid to look at other religions, belief systems and end while embracing them enjoy that same worldliness and holistic view.

what is the inherent fear, that persists in preventing people from taking up the quest.?
why when they are challenged they go straight into the defensive mode, about what they believe.
is what they believe not strong enough to stand on it's own two feet.

it is not the belief that is not strong enough, it is the individuals perception of it.

people find it extremely difficult to embrace difference, especially when it comes down to belief.
i think that if they opened up to even understand beliefs in some way, it would make what they believe, less than what they thought it was
this would present a dilemma.
how can everyone be right?
for them to be right ,makes me wrong!
when that appears to be the case, it becomes unacceptable and therefore the defence of one's belief, comes to the fore.

it comes down to perception.
to bring this into micro focus; how does one inculcate all into one's life and most importantly ,why.

to look ,is not to see
to hear, is not to listen

the payback continues
