Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hello Everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 8 in the first chapter of the Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul." (page 68)

"I ask you, does anyone have the whole truth? Has God written a book wherein all the eternal truths are revealed? Did Jesus appear to everyone on earth? Did Krishna come to the American Indians? Did Buddha walk the Roman roads? Did Mohammed live in an igloo with the inuits? Different teachers and masters have come according to specific needs, in specific areas, with specific people. Though they may have taught many universal truths, they still ministered according to what the people they were among needed and were ready for."

Commentary: No book, no teacher has given us the complete and final truth about life, but various teachers have given us many valid insights into the process of life. However, to say that one particular teacher has given the highest and best teaching would only be a personal opinion. Other people might have a different opinion, and to fight about it and feel personal animosity toward someone of a different opinion would only reveal a lack of assimilating the teachings of one of God's messengers.

Hello Everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 7 in the first chapter of the Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"To be more specific, some of Loey's family brought a most disturbing report to my attention. Namely that you are fighting amongst yourselves. I'll tell you exactly what I was told. You're picking sides, going around saying "I'm on the side of Jesus," or "I'm on the side of Buddha." or "Krishna is my main man," or "Muhammed is the true prophet."

Commentary: If a religionist thinks his or her religion's founder is the best of all, or that his or her religion is the best of all, it only shows that he or she is in delusion about the spiritual life. It is a dualistic thought to think that one religion is the best for everyone. Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Muhammed, Confucius, Lao-Tzu and other true representatives of God all work together to help raise the consciousness of the people on earth. People who try to defend their own religion and promote it as the only or best religion on earth need to have their consciousness raised to the point where they can see the unity of life.

Hello Everyone; namaste:

We are continuing our study with paragraphs 5 and 6 in the first chapter of the Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul." (p68).

"However, we are still learning how to behave. We are not perfect. Learn how to get along with everyone because everyone is part of God. Develop the community of the Holy Spirit of God.

I mention this because I heard through the rumor mills that some of you are not getting along well because of religious bias. Some of you are saying that Jesus is the only way, or Mohammed is the last true prophet, or Krishna is the true God, or Buddha knows the way to live."

Commentary: Religious bias is still very common in the world. The toleration level may be higher than ever, but still not many believers are willing to say that another man's religion is just as valid as his own. A believer in oneness sees the purpose of each religion and how it took hold and became popular, yet he knows no religion was meant to include everyone. He knows the true goal of a valid religion is to lead people back to the realization of oneness with God.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hello Everyone, namaste:

We are continuing with paragraphs 3 and 4 in the first chapter of the Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One, Letters of Aul."

"My friends in Orinth, I think of you often, and I thank God for you. Isn't the freedom of God amazing? You have unlimited potential in God. It's way beyond our current understanding, but we do feel the love of God leading us on.

Consider this: The abundance of God is yours. You can draw upon it all in the fullness of time. God will help you with divine timing according to what you decide to become. God has been with you since the beginningless beginning, so he is always with you. Remember that always.

Commentary: We have unlimited potential and unlimited abundance. But it doesn't all come at once. We develop ourselves over the years, over the lifetime, over the lifetimes. The sooner we realize this the sooner we can accelerate our development in our God potential. You probably don't want to spend any more lifetimes in dreary ignorance of your connection with God.
