Spiritually Speaking...Could You Please Offer Your Thoughts On This...?

In all love,

Cool saying, what is the source?

We are one with God thus the universe we own yet we are not the fullness of God and in this life all is transient. All things must pass (G. Harrison) thus we possess not a thing.

"I am but a drop in the infinite ocean of the light and love of God."

"I am in the father and the father is in me." This is universally true, for in order for anything to be, it must be in God for nothing exist outside of him.

God cannot be known absolutely. This is a teaching common to most all Holy text. Yet all that you do know is God. The fullness of your experience is God revealing himself to you.

Gods nature is infinite thus it is ever unfolding, ever changing, ever revealing and in this he remains the same. For any to claim that they know absolutely is to deny the infinite nature of God.

Thus when we hold that we know perfectly or absolutely we paint a prison around ourselves and are not open to what we do not know, because in our ego we claim to have it or know it. To the extent we think there is no knowledge beyond what we possess this is the limit of what we can know or understand.

Thus, "I cannot know the unknown if to the known I cling."

"Those who say they know, do not know. Those who say the do not know, know."

Blessings and peace to all,

All in all,

Nony

The Universe as we know it when consious is a solid thing, ie you cannot pass through walls or suddenly sprout wings and fly. It is real to our physicality which we share with similar beings. Like a modality of an age. In the dream world it is similar to our waking one and we can describe the things we experience there. It is real and solid while experienced, we accept it mind body and soul. which is why some dreams scare the life out of us. lol But, there are other levels in the dream world, the astral plane, the lower and higher realms, the realm of ghosts etc. And all of them overlap with our consious one to some degree. And then there are realms so far from our own that no language could possible describe them. So if you cling to only known things, you will be unable to experience these other realms because you deny them. Do not acknowlege their existence other than a fleeting moment of wierdness. You say something like, 'it was only a dream' or 'someone walked over my grave'. for example. and deny the reality of it. This is the hardest thing to describe because our language has no words for it and the only thing that works as a medium for messeges is symbology. Animinism. But the ancients called it the nagual.

Peace be with you and may the diamonds in the sky twinkly bright.

While the light guide you into the night.

For the moon is gold and bright.

Heaven shines down in the midst of the night.

So open your heart to thy light.

Hold thy light within yourself.

For you are thy light of the Universe.

And a Happy New Year to you Peace of the World.

I like it, well put together and thoughtful.

this is really beautiful. it is source speaking to source, expressing the inexpressible. that what we are is even more than the universe, for we are aware of the universe.

that what we are is even subtler than space and limitless, for we are aware of space and of limitations.

that what we are owns nothing and yet everything happens in it.

that what we are cannot be known through an intellectual process, for the intellect is something put on through conditioning and borrowed knowledge.

the intellect and what it knows is limited to heard and read knowledge and that what we are is prior to any intellectual knowledge.

happy new year!

We need to posses things to advance knowledge (ie come to know the unknown). Scientists posses things (ie books, scientific instruments, etc.) which they exploit to probe the unknown. The premises of your 'poem' are mistaken.

It suggests that do not own a Universe, too heavy to bear, rather YOU are A UNIVERSE with all the fun it contains.There is two subjects would be questionable in relation with "things" Universe and YOU. huh?

Being impeccably honest toward your own self, you cannot claim that you know yourself, in fact you are most "unknown" to your self than any"thing". So, do not be in hurry to cling to that which you think you know, for thoughts is not necessarily to be true...Be a Universe, as its been designed and do not be any"thing" else. Be a Cause not an effect.

it puts my thoughts to words, love it:)

There is no unknown to know. The ultimate secret to the universe is:

We are animals, there is no secret dimension to our existence, no spirits, when u die, u die, just like roadkill. The universe does not care in the tiniest way whether entire planets full of life float around or are sucked into stars.

And I am not your dear friend, you don't know me at all.

It's hard for me to describe... But I am not defined by what I own, and if I label myself by possessions and perceived identity, then I cannot realize or embrace what I truly am - completely.
