10/25/17 - "Our Father, Who Art in Heaven" Monotheism states that there is only one God. It follows, then, that there is only one life. And life, by definition, is an experience. Logically, it is impossible, and doesn't make sense, to be in more than one place at a time. It would also be impossible for anything to be happening other than what is happening "now" in that experience. If then, you are having an experience, God must be present in that experience. Many people, unanimously deemed "crazy" by mental health "professionals", have identified theirselves as "God". It would only make sense that you would be, if you follow the logic that I just illustrated. Where psychiatrists declare this "belief" a display of lost touch with reality, it can now be shown that the concept is a product of scientific deductive reasoning. Wait! It's not scientific because it is based on a belief in a monotheistic concept of "God"! Unless, of course, you accept that God is not debatable, but rather an undeniable explanation of existence. Explosions of matter spontaneously generated from nothing is not a reasonable or adequate explanation. The only real question is, after you accept the truth like a mature adult, whether existence is organized and orchestrated by a mind. You can, of course, imagine that everything is chaotic and completely left to chance - that your personal existence is the product of "luck". If that were the case, God would be equally likely to buzz around as a fly forever and ever as to live a life more suitable to His true nature - and if you found yourself a fly, you're probably not really "God". If we assume that God found a suitable condition, would ANYTHING but that specific condition be "His own"? You might be His relative. You might be more "like God" than a fly, and naturally be considered a more important thing. That would be "lucky", wouldn't it? Unless, of course, you realize that a minded reality would naturally be subservient to that mind. Your luck isn't really "luck", but a product of physical necessity. The mere fact that your "luck" serves an absolute reality must mean that it isn't real - not luck, but a natural form. All things must be part of one experience, and you are merely a logically determined existential object. But why should one thing have more "right" to God than another? It would be very unfair to make some things live out lives as flies while others got to be humans. That would be a valid argument, if there were more than one thing. So it comes down to a simple question, "Are you real?" If you're sure that you are, then you must be God. How would you determine whether or not you are real? It would be as simple as assessing how much sense your life makes. If you know that you are real, then you must be a very, very important thing. If you aren't the most important thing in your life, the mind is evidently not subservient to you. This is where you can prove to yourself that your life does or does not make sense! Being a reality is absolutely important. If you find that you are not absolutely important, you should serve the thing that is, thereby making yourself of absolute importance. The ego would want to rebel against this, and we find that it does. It rebels and declares itself real; all are "the best" thing there ever was - and if it finds that it is not solely "best", it concedes that all things like itself are "the best". So proud! The belief that you are real won't be denied when it is so close to an ultimate reality. Within inches, but failing completely. The only failure is to lie to oneself. Are you "the One"? |
