gospel of one; letters of aul

Hello Everyone; Namaste:

We are continuing with chapter 3, paragraph 3 in the letters to the Omans from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"Some people are still accusing us of taking advantage of God's love and the fact that God is the only reality. They claim we go around saying, "We can do anything we want to because God is the only doer, so let's just do it, whatever "it" is." That's just plain nonsense, don't you think so? We are far more responsible and sensitive than that."

Commentary: To be in the oneness of God is to take full responsibility for our lives. We have the freedom to do whatever we want to, but every action has a consequence. We are God's representatives, so we don't just do "whatever" as if it didn't really matter what we do. We co-create our own lives.

Another quote on Oneness: The blossoms of life in the garden of earthly existence are enchanting to behold. But somewhere there is a fount of Beauty and Intelligence, even more enthralling, from which we have come and into which we shall merge again. --Paramahansa Yogananda
