Guest guest Posted April 18, 2003 Report Share Posted April 18, 2003 Sat nam, I'm in a pondering sort of way today. You probably won't be surprised to know that, I have more questions that rattle around in my mind, then just the ones I asked earlier and apparently I have also been afflicted with a bad case of verbal diarrhea today! This question is one I have been asking myself for a year now...and I think, just today, while reading something, I may have begun to understand the answer. My question has been..."Why creation?" What's the point? I know, God wanted to experience himself so he created the creation..in order to have that experience...but WHY?? Up until now I haven't understood why God couldn't experience himself without the creation...I think I do now. I was reading out the book "Communion with God" and something I read tweeked a memory of something my teacher said in one of the first meditation classes I ever took with...he said..."you have to have the experience of the darkness, before you can recognize the light". Intellectually I have understood this, but not in an expanded way. In this book I'm reading there is a chapter called "the illusion of insufficiency"...the author, was describing how the illusion of being separate from God came about or something to that nature...anyways whatever the explanation was about, something clicked in me...he was saying what my teacher had said a few years ago in a different way. I realized...if we are all God, with no separation experienced, how is it possible to have an experience or concept of what unity is like? Unity only exists as an "experience", in the presence or illusion of dis-unity. It is only through the illusion of separation that we can re-unite ourselves with God and therefore "recognize" the experience of being one or united. So we became creation, in order to have this experience of "recognizing" unity when we experience it, rather than not recognizing it because we had no contrast in which to compare it to. I would imagine the fruit tastes a lot sweeter after you've fasted for 10000 years! Ha ha! This question of why would we choose to separate from God unity has plagued my life for the last 4 years...always on my mind...and thus my drive to experience unity. Kinda makes me wonder...once I actually begin to live my highest consciousness and unity is no longer a concern on my mind...What will my next question be???? Ha ha! It's strange to me that I can't even fathom what the possibilities might be? For instance, as we begin to live an Aquarian life of love and unity, what will be our challenges, from which we will need to liberate ourselves? When I think about the future, I begin to get excited about learning through positivity rather than the negativity that we have been learning through, for so long now. May we all rise in the Aquarian Age, Sat Sangeet Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 18, 2003 Report Share Posted April 18, 2003 We are an explorer race, thus the possibilities are endless. The exploration will never end, thus the only destination is to go where we have never gone before. What you cannot imagine for tomorrow,today, will three days from now be your yesterday........
