A solution, peace, striving for God, love, the separative self, and spirit into matter

***

There is no solution.

How peaceless it is seeking peace.

            To strive for objects or events in the manifest outer world is to serve the graven image of dead happenings; to allow the outer manifestation to serve the inner self is to serve God, to be God.

            To find the best outer way to serve the inner God of yourself and all others is to spiritualize profane action into divine service.

To love the world is to not love God in yourself. To love God in yourself is to love God and love the world.

Until you find God as yourself, all outer striving is vanity, and is done in vain. When you find God as yourself, there is neither striving, nor outer, nor vanity.

    Until you feel God as yourself, God is nowhere. When you realize God as yourself, God is everywhere.

Ø      Until you are with God, everything seems wrong. When you are with God, everything is correct.

Until you know God is yourself, everyone is alone. When you know God is yourself, every one is all one.

When the inside and outside merge as the separative self vanishes in the all, then shall God be you and the rest of it also.

Merging at the interface creates a new medium which is neither spirit nor matter, but a new, unique, homogenous event.

Accept them as they are, not how you desire them to be.
