True Humility
I was responding to a comment on facebook today and the idea of humility came out …
humility conjures up a feeling of lowliness and self-unworthiness …
“I and my Father are one” … for years I have read and repeated that over and over …
I had an I that was God and an I that was humble and trying to be worthy …
That is twoness … that is duality …
“I and my Father are one” leaves no room for another …
one means one …
We have to understand the nature of God as Omnipotence, Omniscience, Omnipresence,
unconditioned Love, Peace, Joy, Harmony
and we are that place through which that nature flows …
Gibran, in The Prophet, says that children come through us, not from us …
God’s infinite nature flows through us as we see beyond a finite, mortal sense of identity …
God is expressing Its indivisible allness individually and we continually open ourself up to that …
That is right identification …
I see that as true humility … just having the infinite image and likeness of God …
no separate self that is humble or egotistical … just God’s nature individually expressing …
“This world” is a world of appearances … a world of material concepts, a world of good and evil,
a world of judgments and conditioning …
“My Kingdom is not of this world” … as we keep opening up to our oneness with God and
accepting that nature as the true nature of all mankind, of every individual … the world
will be new …
