Solutions, God, following your heart, Taoism, Zen, Yoga, and Jesus the Christ

***

There is no sense in striving for anything, because ...we are everything; we need not seek IT, we are IT.

This is when we should also remember that, in the first chapter, the suggestion was made that the reason there are no solutions is because ...there are no questions. And that is because we are already Truth, or God, or what have you; our consciousness is God's consciousness. Hence, by 'abiding in aconceptual suchness' there is no distance between us and the divine, for this 'aconceptual suchness' is the divine, and is us; we have already been redeemed.

What I mean by following your heart is operating from the authority and voice within you, rather than from without. This means acting from a desire to express one’s own true nature, rather than a desire to conform to, or succeed within, the current paradigm.

The destination of Eastern spiritualities- specifically Taoism, Zen, and Yoga- are for the individual to arrive at a state of non-doing, and as such be liberated from the sleep of doingness, and therefore merge back into the motionless Creator, into Her.

“Is it not written, Ye are Gods?”

Jesus, the Christ
