Who am I?

Who am I?

A question when truthfully answered will reveal all of lifes mysteries to the one who has asked in innocence and sought in sincerity.

Paradoxically enough to know this elusive 'I' is to erase the very identity that formulates this 'I' ness. As long as there is an 'I' means there is a personality that goes with it. 'I' has been associated with a state of being where one is a separate entity. An individual personality can only exist if it feels itself separate or different from another. As soon as the separateness vanishes there can be no more 'I' since there can be no 'other'. All is then One whole... that which is absolute unity and absolute love...that which we call God.

The answer then to the question is simply that Iam God. However what keeps us from realizing this is the separateness that we feel because of our identification with a limited personality. A personality is simply a sum of all the past experiences accrued over many lifetimes in the journey of a soul. Based on its experiences the personality acquires a set of beliefs and habits which forms the basis for its reality. Thus it begins to define its life based on its past conditionings in which it then remains trapped till the time it looks past the clouds of the past and uncovers the truth. The truth then sets it free to create a reality in which all things are possible since in the realm of truth there is complete freedom to create what you wish free of any limitations what so ever. This state of being is generally called paradise.

It is alluded to in most religions that there exists such a paradise and many have been the stories that tell of such a wonderful existence. It is a place that people believe can only be reached after death. This though true is not the complete truth. Death is a transition into another realm which resonates at the state of your own beingness. So in essence there are as many shades of heaven as there are souls on this planet. Most people will reach one of these heavens that resonates with their own way of being and supports and nurtures it. Since most people are on the whole good and strive to do good it but follows that most will reach what they might deem to be heaven. It also follows that all those who have done more harm then good will reach a place that might seem to them to be hell. However it is a reality made entirely by them and supports their beingness. Heaven and hell thus are of our own making. However since God is absolute unity it follows that heaven and hell must not only exist after death in another dimension of reality but must also exist in this physical dimension. Since heaven and hell is just a reflection of our state of being then the reality we choose to build will reflect that very state. Hence when we live in accord with creation and with God then we create heaven on earth and when we don't we create hell. Its easy to see that collectively as humanity we have chosen more of the latter then the former. I believe however that there will come a time when we will learn to live in accord with God and learn to create heaven on earth. It has been mentioned in many prophecies (bible revelations, hopi prophecies, nostradomus among others) that there will dawn a golden age which will bring peace on earth and all children of God will learn to live in harmony with creation. I in my heart hold this vision. May we all learn to live in peace and love each other as the children of our father/mother God. May it be so.
