The Secret - Being Is Enough

Message:

The secret to life is in your being, not in your doing. This is what your spiritual growth is all about. It is this type of spirituality information that opens your awareness of self.

Isn't it fun to explore this wonderful game of life? All too often we get caught up in the day-to-day activities of our lives and forget to stop and smell the roses. We rush to grow up and act like adults and then regret the ability to re-capture that sense of wonder and imagination that we had as a child. Somewhere along the way we replaced joy and spontaneity with seriousness and plodding.

We begin thinking about retirement as soon as we enter the work force. The God of money has replaced the God of love. We begin to believe that we are what we do, what we have and what our body is.

This is the nature of the separation paradigm. It is in believing in this idea that we are a separate entity from all other people, places, things and God that we find ourselves living life from a fearful mentality that says we must defend ourselves against all things that are not us.

We even defend ourselves from the love of our most intimate relationships. Does this make sense? Does this serve us?

I want to remind you once again that you are a human being. You are not a human doing. We have been conditioned all of our lives to believe just the opposite. But the ultimate truth is that in our beingness lies the reality that there is nothing we have to do.

Now, this doesn't mean that we won't do anything. It just means that there is no body or no thing and certainly no God who is going to require that we "do" anything. When it all comes down to it, everything we end up doing comes from a choice we have made about who we are being.

You can even make the choice that who you are being is somebody who just chooses to "be." If you make this choice to just "be" and decide that this beingness requires you to sit in one spot and do absolutely nothing at all, then that is perfectly okay.

It is your life and your choice and it is all right with God for you to choose and decide upon whatever agenda you desire. That is the beauty of this process of life in this physical relative world that we live in. You are at total choice in all matters.

The number one choice in any given moment is who you chose to "be." Conscious choice or unconscious choice makes no difference to the universe. It could make a world of difference (quite literally) to you, but it makes no difference to God, because God allows you the free will to change whatever you desire.

She does this without judgment because, in absolute reality, you are God playing out your particular aspect of God as part of God's overall plan to experience in the physical, relative world all that God knows as concepts in the realm of the absolute.

We are all in this huge, universally coordinated collaboration with the source of everything that exists. All the energy that runs through everything that exists runs through you, and you are connected to everything you can see and imagine and not see and not imagine. We are talking about the all of everything and you are part of it in a never-ending process called life or love or God. They are all the same.

So if you choose to just "be" and decide that this requires you to "do" nothing, that is okay. But it would be wise to understand that this process of life is a cause and effect type of a process and if the cause is that you chose to do absolutely nothing, then the effect is that you will not receive the natural sustenance your physical body requires to stay alive and you will experience this phenomenon known as your physical death.

You see, just because there is nothing that we are required to do doesn't mean that there aren't things that we choose to do. We were created by the source of all things to experience life in all of its different perspectives. There are no limits placed on you except what you choose as your own limitations.
