We priests must live in two worlds:
The World of Form and the Otherworld of Force,
for true existence involves the constant intercourse of both
Let our goal therefore be
To live and thrive between Form and Force -
Being in the world but not of it
The World of Form and the Otherworld of Force,
for true existence involves the constant intercourse of both
Let our goal therefore be
To live and thrive between Form and Force -
Being in the world but not of it
St Corneille "The Yellow Book of Ferns"
There have been many, many turning points on my path. Back in 1990 , when I was thrust unceremoniously on the spiritual path I discovered a new relationship with Jesus which led to a deeper understanding of his teachings. In taking time to know him as a friend, a real flesh and blood human being who walked this Earth, in recognising his humanity , I came to recognise the potential divinity of the whole human race. I saw him as Ernest Holmes said, "as the great example , not the great exception."
Later, Walter Starcke gave me the final clue. That in giving us the two commandments , "Love God, and your neighbour as yourself", Jesus was not laying an absolute trip on us, but giving us the clue to the two worlds.
As Novalis put it ... "Visible and Invisible - two worlds meet in man"
Through us The World of Force has expression in The World Of Form.
Our creativity is the key, and when we are not being creative, we become depressed, we become listless, we become ill , because we are not fulfilling our true potential as both sons and daughters of man, and Sons and Daughters of God.
I AM consciousness.
My consciousness is my Life
I and my Father are One
I AM in the Father, and the Father is in me
In God I live, move and have my being.
In me God lives, moves and has expression
Be Loving .... and Love Being
