Becoming The One
We all carry within our souls the memory of union, of being one with all things, and the experience of the separation; the separation of the one from the other, of the masculine from the feminine, of good from evil, of black from white. There is a longing deep within us to heal this rift, to resolve the separation, to reunite. This longing leads to desire, then - if unmet - to compulsions and addictions, in a desperate attempt to not be separate, to not be alone.
Despite this longing, what is actually required, is to fully differentiate, to individuate, to realise the one self, one in oneself, and to unite within the self, the oppositions found both on the outside, and on the inside, within the unity of the heart.
This Unity of Self is the beginning of the realisation of our true nature, our essential Divinity, and the resolution of the separation.
This is the essence of the human journey, a journey through separation to unity within.
The Realm of The Heart
Unity within the Heart gives rise to a realm, a realm that is birthed from the Heart, and infuses the field of the One. This Realm of the Heart contains the creations of the Heart's dream, the Heart's vision, the destiny inscribed upon the Heart of the One.
The Realm of the Heart is the beginning of the creation of the dreams contained within the Heart of the One. It is an atmosphere of creation, an atmosphere of the Heart's dreams. It is a place of sanctuary, of rest, and of play. It is a place to receive, to rejuvenate , to regenerate. It is a place of celebration, a place of victory. It is a fruitful place, a realm of abundance, of grace. Above all, it contains within it the vibration of pure Love.
The Unity of Self
Hold your Self in the highest esteem. For it is this Self which is the Truth of All Being. It is this Self which answers all of your prayers.
It is this Self that you have been taught to feel unworthy of. Your own Self! This radiant Self, so pure you feel you must have stolen it from Heaven, give it back to Heaven and expect a miracle. This oneness and unity of Self, the heart crowned with the mind, and seated in the throne of the earth, from this place of Self, there is no Other.
This unity of Self is a place of sanctuary, of peace. From this place of peace, with neighbour and Self, brother and Self, sister and Self, from here, true brother/sisterhood can flourish, because the heart is crowned and throned, in unity. lacking nothing, firmly established. From here there is security and a sense of power, balanced with compassion and acceptance. There is no need to defend any territory, the Self is the true territory, firmly established within the crowned and throned heart.
From this place, no power struggle, from this place, no need for grasping, for it is this completeness, this at-one-ness that fulfils all other needs.
How The Beloved Was Lost
The loss of the Beloved had to do with the loss of Her, with the loss of her Heart's welcome, the loss of the One by way of the Other, by way of a mistake. A mistaken belief in Otherness, of having lost original plenitude, of being outside of Home, outside of the Garden, outside of the Heart of the One. It had to do with the loss of Her, this Dark Dream of Forgetting, of forgetting Worth, of forgetting True Inheritance, forgetting the Fruit of Love's Union, forgetting Bliss, and the Nourishment of the Ruby Juice, Love's Sacred Currency.
It had to do with the loss of Her, His Defeat, and the giving away of Sovereignty, the loss of True Sovereignty by way of a False Sovereignty, the loss of the Bow by way of Domination. The loss of the Truth of All Being, the loss of His Heart, and of His Sacred Offerings, this Poverty, this Lack, this Tragedy.
