Gina, you have described relative truth which is a conditioned idea that is not "Truth". This is the plight of all believers who worship their false gods. Truth is God, The idea of God is a false god. Ask your self now, what do civilized people worship most of all? The answer is quite clear, isn't it. >The danger comes when we try to make someone believe our > own truth.

Who am I to say what someone should believe in? Gina, this is the first post I have observed when you were not quoting another's words, but spoke instead, from your heart, directly, simply and openly. Thats the energy of love in operation. This kind of dialogue is what will save our world. It will not come from the positive imaged, empty promises of some invisible leader. You see, Gina, leaders, concepts, principles, desires, they are all quite illusory. It is what we are in our ultimate actions which reflect the truth of our individual lives. Live life holisticaly and you will see a different world. You may be alone in seeing it, but you will see it. Then deal with others from that state of integrity and you will understand what Jesus understood. If each of us lived daily with attention paid to our minutest of actions, we would see just how conflicted we are. That fleeting realization which mirrors the truth of ourselves is the moment of "Truth". If that moment is dealt with honestly, not excused, rationalized, or seeking to place blame upon another, one would be brought to a moment of repentance. In that moment of truth lives change instantly. One does not need a savior to guide him/her in the process of such realization. We've never lost it. WE ARE IT! It has just been covered up with the clutter of mind conditioning. Our duty in this life is to remove the clutter of conditioning and regain our Christhood. > > I used to think that the Reappearance of the Christ would not be > a physical manifestation of the Christ - a BEING who embodies the > "Christ Principle" fully within Himself.

To "Embody a Principle is to emulate a "worshipped thought". Emulation is dualistic, therefore One who tries so hard to mimic an illusion is caught in a state of pretense and is doomed to failure. There is a whole system of consolers out there who are just waiting to soothe one's pain for a price. These are the exploiters, the true "servants" of hell, for they would force a living energy to bend, twist, and break while fitting a system based in "Dead" thought. They are the myriad number of "blind who lead the blind". They are the priests, the psychological medical profession with its offshot of pop-counselors, these are but a small segment of intellectual experts who make a living at mind manipulation. Gina, All that one has to do is live beyond principle and One is "THE CHRIST". Stop the habitual momentum of becoming and live in a state of "Being" It was the "BEATITUDE" (BE-ATTITUDE) that was Jesus's greatest lesson. Who got the message? Cast away the crutches of belief for they will never lead one to understanding. Belief is the "lazy man's" substitute for understanding. Why settle for a fanciful prison cell of belief when the key of understanding will unlock that door forever. When that happens, one will never utter another word about knowing and embodying freedom, One will BE IT. Forgive me Gina, While Ray and Gina are real, Maitreya is but an illusion. People whose minds have been corrupted are always more secure in serving their illusions than dealing with real people. Is not our world testimony to that? I will leave you with a short quote from my book "Journey Beyond Thought: breaking the bonds of the Conditioned mind". It sums up the essence of this post. "The freedom of one man living peacefully and cooperatively with others is the key to the freedom of the entire society. Such a change must begin within the individual and flow out like a ripple from a pebble dropped into a pond". I will not give you my best, I give you my Love. -- Raymond Karczewski http://www.cdsnet.net/Business/Ark/
