THIS THING CALLED YOU

Today I would like to share with you a paragraph taken from the book titled "This Thing Called You" which was written by Ernest Holmes. Mr. Holmes founded The Science of Mind magazine back in the 1950's. His words were true then and still today they ring true. In the book Mr. Holmes states the following: There is a pattern of perfection at the center of your being....... Your intellect senses this through intuition, your imagination feels it by divine right, your inward consciousness knows it through faith.....Any maladjustments in your life will be healed when you realize this perfect center within yourself. The vision you must catch and hold is the consciousness of a union so complete and perfect that you find no difference between your own being and God. The two are one...... The wick of your individual life runs deep into the oil of pure Being." I agree that we all have within us that state of perfect awareness and oneness. Now I know some of you may have different beliefs about God but I still feel it doesn't detract from the truth and no matter your "description" of Infinite Being nothing changes the fact that we all still have that center of perfection. My hope today is that each of you have already discovered this truth and if not then soon! Please remember to be good to yourself and even better to others and enjoy this One Eternal Moment.

yes we are all alike and God-like in our essence.. I am reminded of a quote from Alan Watts ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FELdBsixGg ):

"Underneath the superficial self, there is another self, more really "us" than "I". And if you become aware of that unknown self, (then) the more you become aware of it, the more you realise that it is inseparably connected with everything else that is ... Every one of us is an aperture, through which the whole cosmos looks out. It's as if you had a light, covered with a black ball, and in this ball were pinholes, and each pinhole is an aperture through which the light comes out. So in that way every one of us is actually a pinhole, through which the fundamental light - that is, the existence itself - looks out".

Keep on spreading your light, Captron :)
