Subject: "The worst thing we ever did...


...was put God in the sky
out of reach
pulling the divinity
from the leaf,
sifting out the holy from our bones,
insisting God isn’t bursting dazzlement
through everything we’ve made
a hard commitment to see as ordinary,
stripping the sacred from everywhere
to put in a cloud man elsewhere,
prying closeness from your heart.

The worst thing we ever did
was take the dance and the song
out of prayer
made it sit up straight
and cross its legs
removed it of rejoicing
wiped clean its hip sway,
its questions,
its ecstatic yowl,
its tears.
The worst thing we ever did is pretend
God isn’t the easiest thing
in this Universe
available to every soul
in every breath."

--Chelan Harkin, from her book "Susceptible to Light"

Lot of people still believe in a God patterned after the
God kings of the Bronze Age. He sits on a throne and
crushes his enemies while rewarding his loyal sniveling
slave like worshippers.

A God who sends people to hell for eternity for small
offensives is not a loving God but a psychopathic
sadist.

some psychopathic sadist blame God for not stopping them
from sadist psychopathic actions that they claim God
made them do... when God simply allowed them to choose
right or wrong and even told them to choose right not
wrong... but they opted for the latter rather than the
former.

et, I wish you well within your own experience, truth
and understanding of the Divine, which can only be
perfect for you, and only you... May your living embrace
of spiritual "better ways," as you see them, deepen your
capacity for respecting the perfect spiritual paths of
other seekers, supported by the same Divinity living
within your own heart...

Love to you...

Shadow... thanks... I would focus on ...May your living
embrace of spiritual 'better ways' do involve such
better ways... irrespective of how one or others may see
such...

Thank you, et... I think this choice you're voicing to
focus upon *embracing your own spiritual better ways,*
clearly understanding that how others do so has nothing
to do with yours...nor yours, with theirs...is just
wonderful, and I celebrate it with you... ;)

but if their ways do not involve the better and best way
the they will not know nor experience the best and
better... by you are correct some focus upon *embracing
your own spiritual better ways,* and such has nothing
to do with mine or what be the best and better way...

as to such being just wonderful, and you celebrate it
with yours... well me prefer to focus on what be best
and better.

My prayer for you is that one day, within your own
personal communion with the Divine, however that
happens for you, you fall so deeply into Infinite
Love's sacred stillness, peace and joy that you
finally realize that within Its *sheer enormity,*
there exist as many valid, perfect spiritual paths for
others to do so, as well, as there are individuals
seeking it... ;)

When that happens I sense that your obsessive need to
so relentlessly impress upon others your own version
of best and better ways to be will simply drop away in
the wake of that bliss...

May it come soon for you... ;)

...the light and an object and a screen to be a shadow.

Either you did not notice the shift from the possessive
form depicted by someone's obsessiveness need to
so relentlessly impress upon others their own version
of best and better ways to be willed or you have
insisted to maintain such possessive form rather than
simply pick up and embrace what be best and better as
what be best and better.

Do note that I did not say "... rather than simply
pick up and embrace what be claimed by some to be best
and better ..." and how I did sort of implied ---...
simply drop what you think feel realize is best and do
pick up and embrace what be best and better ... as what
be best and better... and what you hold to be best and
better---. Some likely do not even recognize consider
realize what be best and better other than the opposite
of what they hold to be their best and their better.
