Truth and the ocean of God, radio waves, and the miracle of life

***

There is no ‘one’ truth, one way to live, one rule, there is only the ever-new living now, and our ever-new recognition, response, and re-creation in it.

We are ‘in’ God in the same way as one who dives into the water is in the water; no matter what you do, or who you are, or where you go, the medium in which you exist is God.

To cross back over from the separated self into the Ocean of God, is to be in the calm depths of union, while the surface rages on.

God helps you accomplish what you could not accomplish without God.

When you start dividing up what is God, and what is not God, that is when you get into trouble.

God exists for all of us. But for most people God exists like the unknown parent of an orphaned child. There is existence, but no relationship. The important thing is to realize this, and to go out and seek that Parent who lost or abandoned you before you ever could know them. Only then will the Parent be truly apparent, God will be God, and a love that could be- will be.

The radio waves are always happening, though the oblivious man with no radio has no way of perceiving them. Thus it is only a matter of tuning in.

The world is both actual and a lie. Just as you can hold a carnival on a football field, or have a food-fight instead of a feast, the society of men has only succeeded in creatively misusing the miracle of life.
