Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraphs 4 and 5 of chapter 9 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book  Gospel of One; Letters of Aul (page 119).

God shows up in every moment and is continually pouring out his blessings in astonishing ways.  Be ready for anything.  The full blessings of God are beyond our comprehension.

Our most magnanimous God gives seeds in abundance: Star seeds. planet seeds, grass seeds, flower seeds.  God is extravagant in multiplying life and in providing for our life.  We humans are the ones who cut off the supply of God by acting selfishly.  We could feed the world if we realized our oneness with all life and acted upon that realization.  God doesn't  hold back anything from us, but our small cups of self-imposed limitations are holding us back.  But we are expanding our cups, so to speak.  We are growing in our awareness of our God-selves.  We are expanding our consciousness into the one consciousness.

Commentary: The universe teems with life, and it is all provided for in one way or another.  Everything lives on Light, directly or indirectly.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 3 of chapter 9 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul:

Remember these truisms: Give time to God and he will give time to you.  Sow bountifully and you will reap bountifully.  I want each of you to go within and meditate.  Find your true center.  Breathe deeply with awareness, look up into your third eye center.  Be aware of God in everything, especially your own body.  Do this on a regular basis, several times a day for as long as you can without neglecting your duties and hold that awareness with you all day and night.  Weave it into your daily life.

Commentary: The more time we give to God the closer we will be to realizing our oneness with God.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste:

We are now moving on to the first two paragraphs of chapter 9 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

I know you're ready to do your part.  I've been telling people all through the Acedonia province about how keen you are to help out.  They have been inspired by your enthusiasm for living in oneness with all life.

Now I'm sending the brothers to reinforce your resolve, so all my praise of you won't turn out to be just hot air.  If some Acedonians and I happened to drop by unexpectedly and found that you had back slid into a life of believing the illusions, then we'd all be red-faced about it.  So to make sure that you are still moving up in Life awareness, I'm sending these brothers in the faith as an advance team to work with you.  I would like to see you build up your own faith in your own way,  without the pressure of us coming too soon.  In other words, don't think of faking it for us.  Be genuine in your faith.  Our gentle brothers will help you do that.

Commentary:  Back sliding into the dualistic perspective is very easy to do since most of the world lives in that way.  That's why it is good to have strong and encouraging people among us who will set examples in living the life of oneness and divine love.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on the 7th and 8th paragraph of chapter 8 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

We would never take any of the relief money for ourselves, and we don't want anyone to even suspect we would.  We are being very transparent on this.  Everyone can see what we are doing, just as God can.  For extra assurance, we are also sending along a neutral observer.  He has proved his honesty and reliability many times over.  He is full of energy and good will.  He knows your situation and is eager to work with everyone concerned in a fair and honorable way. 

Need I say anything more about Itus?  We've been working together for many years now.  The friends that travel with him are a real credit to this movement toward oneness in God.  Show them how much you have progressed  Let them know of your love for them. 

Commentary:

In oneness transparency is the order of the day. Nothing is hidden in oneness.  There is no cheating, no scheming, no lying because there is no advantage to gain.  We all love one another and want the best for everyone.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 6 of chapter 8 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

I'm happy and grateful that Itus is with me on this.  It was his idea to go help out with the relief effort.  We're also sending a companion along with Itus, someone who is a very popular speaker.  He's rock solid in the faith and really gets people fired up with his enthusiastic speaking.  We need more people like him.  Will you be one?  We share our gifts freely in God while taking precaution against scandals of loose living.

Commentary:  If you are an eloquent and enthusiastic speaker on the topic of the oneness of life, God can use you. A good speaker can fire up people, get them motivated, and help them feel that they are part of something bigger than themselves.  However, if you put yourself out there as a speaker, people will look to see if you walk the talk, so that is why we do our best to always live with compassion and love and honesty in all situations.  Scandals can throw a monkey wrench into any organization or movement as well as personal lives.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 5 of chapter 8 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

So here is what I suggest now. You started some projects last year, but then you let them go uncompleted.  I know you have the heart and the strength to finish them, so renew your enthusiasm and carry on strongly.  Once the blueprint is clear, you know just what to do.  Your heart and hands work together.  You work shoulder to shoulder with your co-workers.  They help you and you help them.  You're really helping each other and yourselves at the same time, because we are all one in God.  It is a beautiful action to see.

 Commentary:  Collective will power can get amazing results.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on the 4th paragraph of chapter 8 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

Please don't think I'm comparing you to others, but I'm hoping that the example set by the groups in Acedonia will inspire you to greater heights.  You know how the saints can give away everything, even their lives, as Jesus Christ did, for the benefit of all.

Commentary:   Good examples are inspirational, but sometimes when the example is truly outstanding, then people feel like they can never measure up. Jesus set the greatest example so we have the tendency to put him on a pedestal and say we can never measure up.  

But he did say that others could  and would do greater things..  And maybe some have, but the world hasn't taken notice.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone, namaste:

We are now on the second and third paragraphs of chapter 8 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians in the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul (p.116).

It all seemed to happen so naturally.  It was a good example of how the reality of oneness touched their hearts and helped them to realize we are one with the poor people of the world.  I was there and saw how it all happened.  Many regarded it as a privilege to be able to help.

I mention this to you because I think it will encourage you to deal with your problems in a similar way.  You can do so well in many areas.  You trust God, you're intelligent and articulate, you're passionate, you love well and now here is a chance to show your own generosity of spirit.

Commentary: When you realize that you are one with everyone, you naturally want to help other people.  We all have talents and abilities and resources to share to help other people

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now moving on to chapter 8 of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

I'd like to give you an update on the astonishing and exciting way in which God is working in the group in Acedonia province.  Awful troubles came upon those groups, pushing them to the limits of patience. Yet the trials exposed their strengths.  They were incredibly brave and stalwart in their faith.  The situation set off an outpouring of compassion and immediate help--far more than they seemed able to afford. Their faith in the abundance of God is remarkable.

Commentary:  Trials have a way of bringing out the best in people.  They reach past the limitations of the illusion

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

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

And then, when I saw how Itus felt so exuberant over your response, my joy doubled.  I was thrilled to see how revived and refreshed he was by his meetings with you.  I seemingly went out on a limb in telling Itus how great I thought you were, but it was a strong limb of truth.  As it turned out I didn't exaggerate at all.  Itus saw for himself that what I said about you was true.  He can't get over it, just goes on talking about you and how you really have taken to living the life of oneness.  He was quite amazed by it all.  And I couldn't be more pleased--I'm so happy for you.

Commentary: There is great joy in seeing people truly living the life of oneness.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; Namaste;

We are now on paragraph 6 of the 7th chapter in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

This is what I was hoping for when I wrote the first letter.  My main intention was not to criticize the old beliefs but to help you wake up and realize your profound ties with God and with all of life.  That's what happened, and I feel very satisfied about it.

Commentary:  The world is full of old mistaken beliefs.  A lot of superstition has been held up as true religion, but why take time to refute them all when a single experience of the oneness of God would automatically clear the air

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 5 of chapter 7 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians in the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

So distress that drives us to seek God can be good.  It wakes us up and turns us around.  We don't regret that kind of distress.  Isn't it wonderful in all the ways that distress has moved you closer to God.  Now you're more alive, more responsible.  If you look from any angle you can see how you've improved your love, and you have more purity of heart and intentions.

Commentary:  God won't leave us alone.  We will always have some kind of stress in this material world, but if we give it to God, we can relax a bit.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 4 of chapter 7 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians of the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

I realize I caused you some distress with my first letter.  Although I felt some trepidation about altering your notions about what some people think of as "the word of God."  I don't feel worried at all now that I see you were actually receptive to this truth.  The letter shook you up a bit, but you recovered quickly.  Now I'm happy to see that you are quick-minded and that the letter spurred you on to adjusting your understanding.  You weren't dogmatic about your old ways.  You let the distress bring you to a better understanding of God, not drive you further away.  The net result was a large gain in understanding and wisdom.  Now you know that the word of God is not confined to one book that only a small percentage of humanity has read.  The word of God comes to everyone, everywhere, every moment.  You only have to listen for it.

Commentary:  The unconditional love of God will not let any one stay with the same limited thinking day after day after day. Sooner or later, in one way or another, the love of God will prompt us to come up higher in our understanding.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste,

We are now on paragraph 3 of chapter 7 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

I'll tell you right now, when we first arrived in Acedonia province, I found it difficult to be at peace.  The infighting in the groups there left us feeling uncertain.  I lost my center and was nervous because we didn't know how it would end.  Then we received reassurance when Itus arrived.  We were overjoyed to see him and even more so when he told us about you--about how much you cared, how much you grieved, and how concerned you were about my welfare.  After that I was able to quickly relax.

Commentary:  Being human, we all have moments of insecurity or uncertainty, but if we remember our oneness with God and each other, we can usually get back to our center fairly quickly.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste,

We are now on paragraph 2 of chapter 7 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

I'm asking you to trust our words.  We are not about to manipulate or exploit anyone.  We back off if anyone thinks we come on too strongly.  I hope you don't think I'm criticizing you.  As I mentioned earlier, I'm with you all the way.  I'm actually very proud of you, in the godly sense that is, and I'm full of joy despite the troubles we've had.

Commentary:  The gospel of oneness isn't pushy, but the information is put out there for people to be aware of it.  If it is rejected at first, that's all right, we are still in oneness.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now moving on to chapter 7, paragraph 1 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

Introspect about everything and everyone that drags you down, both within and without. Consider what you can do to remedy the situation.  Let's make our whole lives clean and holy temples for communion with God.

Commentary:  When we introspect we become aware of ourselves, our thoughts and feelings. We take charge of our attitudes.  We realize we are responsible for our thoughts and feelings. In the quietness of introspection we can listen to our conscience and the voice of God.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 3 of chapter 6 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

If your faith is still tentative, then avoid those who reject the living God.  How can you be partners with someone who will drag you down?  Be with people who will lift you up.  You are treating your body as the temple of God, so avoid people who abuse their own bodies and don't care about yours.  When you become strong in your faith then you can move amongst the skeptics, nihilist, and nay-sayers and possibly lift them up.

Commentary:  Although we are all part of God, many people don't realize it or even think about it.  Some people are even antagonistic about faith or belief in God, but you are not obligated to try to change their views.  Just build up your own relationship with God.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 2 of chapter 6 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

My dear Orinthians, I'm eager to see you embrace this open and precious life.  God doesn't limit you.  You limit yourself according to how much you think you can handle.  If you feel small then you are living in a small way.  I'm writing this as plainly as I can and with great affection.  Open up your lives to the greatness of God within you.

Commentary:  We do place limits on ourselves, and when we realize this we also realize that our potential is very great indeed.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now moving on to chapter 6, paragraph 1 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul. (page 113)

Since we are all in this together, we urge you not to waste any part of this precious life of God.  Now is the time to be alive.  Our work as representatives of God gets validated in the details.  People are watching us, and in their souls they recognize the truth.  In every situation, condition, circumstance, whether in being elevated or repressed, exalted or blamed, praised or slandered, idolized or ignored, honored, or scorned, enriched or impoverished, whatever comes, we stand firm in the love of God.

Commentary:  even if people seem oblivious to this message, their souls really do know, but their outer egos are just not yet ready to receive it.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; Namaste;

We are now on paragraph 6 of chapter 5 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

We have taken on the work of telling this good news to everyone. We are God's representatives.  We persuade people to drop their outer differences and enter into God's work of making life a paradise for everyone.  We urge people to become friends of God, friends of life.  God is already your best friend. How? You ask. God serves you in every way, yet gives you the freedom to make your own decisions.  God is with you every step of the way, a constant companion, he is never overbearing or pushy.  He knows when to step forward with active help and when to stay in the background, when to act as a father, mother , sister, brother, best pal, son or

daughter, baby or grandparent.  God can be your lawyer, doctor, chauffeur, gardener, nurse, housemaid, or whatever.  You get the idea.

Commentary:  Bhagavan Krishna is a good example of God playing different roles for people.  He was a friend and charioteer for Arjuna.  He was a baby for mother Yasoda.  He was a brother to Balarama.  He was a playmate for his cowherd friends. And he was a divine philosopher for all of us in the Bhagavad Gita. And in our everyday lives you can see or sense the hand of God if not his whole personality.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone, namaste:

We are now on paragraph 5 of chapter 5 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book  Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

Since everyone is an equal part of God, we look beyond people's outer circumstances of what they own or how they look. We have looked at people that way in the past and have made many mistakes as you know for yourselves.  We certainly don't look at people that way anymore.  Now we look at the inside and see that everyone has an intimate connection with God.  Anyone and everyone has a new chance everyday to create themselves anew.  The past is behind us, and God is ever new before us.  We are not our past habits or our past bodies.  We are ever new in God.  We can let go of guilt from the past.  We can settle our relationships with others.  We can forgive others and ourselves for past hurts.  Just sit quietly for

awhile and realize that you are alive, and love is what heals yourself and the world.  The whole world can be renewed through real love.

Commentary: Unconditional love does heal everything.  If we concentrate on that truth, all the conditions and circumstances will fade into the background.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on the 4th paragraph of chapter 5 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul (page 111).

We choose to work from a focused center of God's unconditional love.  God is the life of everything.  That puts us all in the same boat, so to speak.  Everyone, everything, everywhere is part of God.  Nothing exists outside of God.

Commentary:  Well, this says it all.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 3 of the 5th chapter of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book  Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

That thought alone keeps us on our toes.  It's very sobering to know that we all face the results of our thoughts, words, and actions. Everything we do truly does come back to us. We make this point urgently with everyone we meet to get them ready to face their life review.  God alone knows how effective we have been, but I hope you know we do this out of our deep love for you.  We're not saying this to boost our own image before you.  We just thought it would help you realize that we are truly on your side and not just pretending.  If I seemed to act in the extreme at times, I did it for

the good of all.  If I acted serious or silly, I did it for you.  God's love has moved me to a wide variety of expressions,  it's not just s strict and serious view of a severe God that we have.  God's love can coo with babies and crack like thunder.  God never hurts anyone, but we hurt each other, and a life review shows us how we have hurt others. So we learn from that.  Eventually we will learn to love each other with the love of God.

Commentary: In the oneness of life we each get a life review to see how we have affected everyone else in the circle of life.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on the second paragraph of chapter 5 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

But expectantly waiting is not the main point.  cheerfully living in the present moment, doing the best we can to live in tune with God is what we aim to do, regardless of our present conditions.  Sooner or later we will each get a life review.  We will appear before the Karmic Board and our own God-Self and see the results of our actions-- on ourselves and others  We will experience the results of our actions from others' points of view as well as our own.

Commentary:  Do the best you can to live in the now and treat everyone with kindness.  Your life review will go much better.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now moving on to the first paragraph of chapter 5 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul. (P 110)

For example, when these bodies of ours are finished and buried or cremated, they will be replaced by new bodies according to our next realm, but even beyond that, our glorious spiritual bodies are forever a part of God.  Sometime we can hardly wait to get a more glorious body in the realms of heaven, and we cry out in frustration about our "limits" within these earthly bodies.  Even so , sometimes we do go beyond our  "limits" and get a taste of the heavenly realms.  That encourages us and keeps us going.  That's  why we live with such delight.  You won't see us with frowning faces or walking about as if leaden weights are in our shoes.  Tight conditions here don't bring us down. They only remind us to go for the spacious living conditions we know are possible in God.  We trust in the vision that with God all things are possible.  do you think that a few potholes in the road or mud holes in the path are going to stop us?  When the time comes, we will be quite ready to exchange these limited conditions for much wider possibilities.

Commentary: Most people who have had near death experiences, or who have consciously traveled in the higher realms have

described beatific visions that mere words cannot really convey.  Those realms are not really closed to us, even though it is difficult to go beyond our collective reality here on earth.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 7 of chapter 4 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

Don't hold your breath waiting for us to give up.  No way! Even though things may look tough and even like they are falling apart, that is just a transition phase to something better.  Sometimes we need to clear out a space for something new to be brought in.  These temporary hard times are just small annoyances compared to the coming good times of goodwill and mutual admiration. There's far more good happenings coming than we would ever suspect.  The troubles we see now are here today and gone tomorrow, but the joy of God is ever-new.

Commentary: While in the middle of a terrible storm it's

 hard to see the clear skies above the clouds, but we know the sun will shine again, so it is with the troubles in our lives.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 6 of chapter 4 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

To answer the old riddle: could God set himself a task to difficult for himself to accomplish? The answer is yes and no.  He could set an impossible task and them immediately find a way to do it.

Commentary:  God has already set himself up with a seemingly impossible task:  How to bring back countless ( but God can count them) souls who have free will back to him.  It will take eons.  It's much more difficult than herding cats. God knew how to do it right away, and since he is beyond time, it won't be as long as it will seem to us.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 5 of chapter 4 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

The rejection by religionists won't stop us, that's for sure. We say what we believe. And what we believe is that God has unconditional love for all creation.  All creation is part of the consciousness of God.  We are all one in God so what you do to or for others you actually do to or for yourself.  Every detail of life is within the consciousness of God. We all have a personal connection with God, and we are all equal parts of God because God is not superior to himself, but he transcends himself continuously.

Commentary: Jesus had to deal with the religionists who didn't like his teachings. There are always vested interests in the status quo.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 4 of chapter 4 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book  Gospel of One; Letters of Aul (page 108).

Outwardly we are not different from other people. In fact, we are very ordinary looking people.  We don't go around performing dazzling miracles, and our bodies don't actually shine a light unless you can see our shining auras. And we may not have the super model bodies (although some of do), but we are anchored in God. God knows what we've all been through to get this far, and it hasn't been easy for most of us. In fact, some of us have been persecuted and prosecuted for proclaiming our oneness with God.  Many so-called Christians and Muslims have banished us from their company.  They think they are separate from God, and when we say that we are one with God, just as Jesus is, they call it blasphemy, heresy, or the lies of the devil.

Commentary: It is interesting how people who have the mentality of separateness can pass the judgement of blasphemy on people who proclaim the oneness of all life.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 3 in the 4th chapter of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

The gospel we are presenting isn't about building up ourselves. We are not any more special than anyone else.  But we are trying to become the message just as we deliver the message.  God advises us to light up the darkness with our lives, and that is what we are doing.  With the help of Jesus Christ, Bhagavan Krishna, Gautama Buddha, Confucius, Lao Tzu, Mohammed, and the rest of the ascended host and the angels of God, we are being the light.

Commentary:  The best preaching is by setting a good example.  

 

Gospel of One Letters of Aul

Hello Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph two of chapter four in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; letters of Aul.

If our message seems obscure to anyone it isn't because we are holding back anything.  More likely it's because people have some fears and cultural bias or just refuse to give our message some serious attention.  They probably have their eyes on the possessions of this world, or on dogmatic religion or on God-less science.  They are so caught up in the rat race, or outer church, temple, or mosque activities, or scientific research that they never think to sit down and really meditate on God and life.  For now they just can't see the plain evidence of God all around them. They would use a flashlight in the middle of the day to look for God.

Commentary:  The world certainly can keep us busy.  Even religious activities can distract us from our goal of realizing our oneness with God.

 

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now moving on to the first paragraph of chapter 4 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul. (p108).

God has given us his life and love, so that we have nothing to be afraid of.  We are not going to go hide in a cave somewhere just because we may occasionally run into some hard times.  Neither are we going to retreat into some psychological ploy of non-awareness of what is really going on. Neither are we going to manipulate and maneuver life to our advantage over others.  There can be no advantage over others since we are all one.  We keep everything out in the open, very transparent, so the whole truth is in plain view.  People can come and see and discern for themselves about our lives and our message.

Commentary:  We are all part of God. Ideally we would all be helping each other.  

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

 Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 4 of chapter 3 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book  Gospel of one; Letters of Aul.

"With that kind of outlook to excite us, nothing can hold us back.  Everything is out in the open with us.  There is no need to hide ourselves because we are allowing our true God Selves to shine through.  The old ways of hiding our faults and schemes are gone. We admit we have made mistakes, but all mistakes are behind us.  If we make new mistakes, we admit them and move on up. Everything is revealed in God anyway. If you try to hide something, it can't be done for God is everywhere and everything. God is a living personal presence, not an old man in outer space somewhere, or a stone idol, or an angry, vengeful God just above the storm clouds. And since God is personally present, we are freed from the condemnations and judgements other may direct at us. God's love is unconditional. We are not tied to our past mistakes or to our bodies.  We are free!  All of us!  Where the spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. So we are transfigured, our faces are shining with the brightness of angels.  Our lives are becoming brighter and brighter and more beautiful as our God presence comes to the forefront, and we become more like him. 

 Commentary: When we live in the oneness of God, we don't go around blaming people.  We live in the spirit of love and forgiveness and mutual respect.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 3 of chapter 3 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book  Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

We have soared above the former understanding of such laws as the ten commandments brought forth by Moses.  Too many people used the commandments to condemn the wrong doing of other people. The ten commandments and other rules of behavior are actually indicators of how you are doing.  Since we don't judge and condemn people anymore, we use the moral codes as measuring sticks for ourselves.  Instead of condemning one another, now we are affirming one another as co-creators with God.

Commentary:  Since we all make mistakes, the rules of behavior are useful as guidelines to keep us on the right track. But rather than focusing on not doing wrong, we focus on the glorious possibilities before us as co-creators with God.  We naturally want to do what is right when we are consciously working with God.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 2 of chapter 3 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

You are like letters of recommendation for our work, but of course we couldn't write a letter that would adequately describe your lives.  Only God can write such a magnificent letter.  And he is writing it from the depths of Spirit, utterly profound. 

Commentary: If you were writing a letter of recommendation for someone, could you ever really do it justice?  All of us are just too complex.  Only God knows the full scope of our lives, and the best is yet to come.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now moving on to chapter 3, paragraph 1 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul.

"Do you think we are being too sure of ourselves?  Are we asserting our Self-authority too strongly?  If so, please forgive us.  There is a fine line between self-confidence and being cocky.  We do revel in our freedom and the sureness of our path, and we extend it to you.  And we see that many of you now rejoice in the oneness of all life.  You have become great examples.  Your lives are open books that others can read.  But you're not like printed words that never change.  God's living spirit is within you, and so you are still growing and evolving."

Commentary:  We don't want to be like a book that never changes.  Our life stories will continue on forever.  There is no final chapter. Let us write beautiful stories.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraph 6 in chapter 2 of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"In a way we have a big responsibility to spread this message in order to save all life on earth.  Can any one person take on such a task.  Yes and no.  It only takes one--you, and you, and you, and me.  We stand in the presence of God.  God looks us in the face.  We are blessed, and we live this message as honestly as we can.."

Commentary:  Realization and ascension are only gained by one soul at a time, yet we are all interconnected and part of the oneness, so we are all uplifted by the ascension of one.  Jesus has uplifted many souls, so has Buddha and Krishna and other great souls. And so many others have also contributed to the upward spiral of life.  God is the magnet drawing us upward.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraphs 4 and 5 of the second chapter in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"When I arrived in Ome I found many people eager to hear the truth.  All I had to do was show up.  The people were ready for this gospel.  But when I didn't find Itus waiting for me with the first hand news about you, I couldn't fully relax.  In fact I became worried and left there and went to Acedonia to find Itus and get some comforting words about you. And thank God, I did receive some good news..

We intuitively follow God's travel plans for us, and at times it's been like a hero's victory parade.  Through us he brings knowledge of His presence everywhere.  To those who accept this teaching, it is like inhaling the aroma of fragrant flowers or the drinking of tropical nectar.  It is very pleasing to the soul.  But for those who reject these messages of oneness, it is like bitter medicine.  They inwardly know they need it, but they don't want to take it."

Commentary: To know that life makes sense is very comforting.  There is so much that happens in life that does not seem to make sense.  But every event is caused by something that reflects our collective consciousness.  And behind our consciousness is the unity of God that ties everything together and assures us of perfect justice, perfect sense.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 3 in the second chapter in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"Each of you take responsibility for making your group an outstanding example of people who love life, who love God and people and the environment and the animals of all kinds.  This is really the focus of my letter.  We are emphasizing the positive."

Commentary:  In any group of believers you will have a diversity of talents and abilities, but what will really make the group sizzle is if every member is brimming with love for all of life.  Enthusiasm and love from everyone makes a strong group.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone, namaste;

We now are now moving on to chapter 2, paragraphs 1 and 2 in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book Gospel of One; Letters of Aul, page104.

"Since I couldn't come for a personal visit, I decided to write another letter to you, and part of it was very hard to write. I'm talking about confronting the person or persons who have been causing problems in your local group--those people who still think God is a separate supreme being who rewards and punishes people according to some impossible standards of right and wrong.  They spread false rumors about you, but we need to forgive them.  They have to get past their cultural upbringing and perhaps a diet that keeps them from thinking clearly.  Try to see their actions from their point of view.  They thought they were doing the right thing by warming people about  your group of blasphemers

However, getting back at them will never do.  You need to heap on the love, not criticism.  They will come back around eventually.  They will see your good example and get over their fears of being misled."

Commentary:  If we respond to criticism by criticizing back, even if the charges are blatantly false, ridiculous, or silly, we will only fall into the trap of dualism.  It's better to listen to the charges and try to understand them and then come from a oneness perspective--we're all in this together, give everyone respect as a sovereign being in God, and stay centered in love for all. Such an attitude will help us overcome self-righteousness, also.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste;

We are now on paragraphs 8 and 9 in the first chapter of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"However, I'm still proclaiming this message of the oneness of all life loud and clear. We affirm it with a shout of "Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes!"  God is adding his yes directly to ours.  He is pleased to see people firmly on the way back to him--to the realization of Godhood.

Perhaps it was a good thing that I wasn't able to visit.  You can't be dependent on me to inspire you. You are strengthened by going within more and finding your own God-connection.  I don't need or want any followers or disciples, but I'm thrilled to have co-workers who know God.  We are partners, working alongside each other.  I know that you will stand by your own faith, not mine."

Commentary: Our natural state is one of equality with one another, but it is also natural to help one another with our different talents and abilities.If we can keep to a humble attitude either way, we can get along better.  God is the doer, we truly learn that as we move into oneness.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; Namaste;

We are now on paragraphs 6 and 7 in the first chapter of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"We want you to be with us when we become truly anchored in the oneness of God. Since I was confident of your welcome, I had originally scheduled two separate visits with you.  Once on my way from the Acedonia province and then again on my return trip. I thought it would all go well.

Alas, it didn't work out, and now some of you are saying that I'm being wishy-washy, unable to make a commitment.  Please forgive me. I have many demands on my time. I haven't mastered being in two or more places at the same time yet. I know some people can do it, but I'm not one of them yet.

Commentary: When you truly become anchored in the oneness of God, when you are everywhere in the consciousness of God, then you will be in many places at once, just as Jesus and Krishna are, to name two.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone, namaste;

We are now on paragraph 5 of chapter one in the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One, Letters of Aul." (page 103)

"Now that the danger is past, I am very happy to say that we didn't quaver or back down in any way.  We may have been a little anxious at times.  That's the human part of us, but we stayed firmly in our God Selves, so it was really God within us who did the work.  I want to make that clear."

Commentary: Jesus felt his human side many times. He knew he had trials to go through. He knew he had to lead his disciples and sometimes rebuke them. He knew he had to face his critics. But he stayed firmly in his God-Self.  So we can do the same when we learn how to let God work through us.

Gospel of one; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone, namaste.

We are  now on paragraph 4 in the first chapter of the Second Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"Did you realize what an awful time we had in the Sia province? I didn't think we were going to live to tell about it.  We were on the edge of our existence here.  But we came through it by the grace of God, and now we have another survival tale to add to our collection.  I can't explain how or why God saves some , but not all.  I know he is not a puppet master, so it must have something to do about our own life plans.  Some people only come into this life for short term and a few specific purposes, then they exit.  I don't understand it all, but I know your prayers helped.  You visualized us coming through it safely and gave thanks to God for our safety.  If God protects us we are protected indeed!

Commentary:  The comings and goings of souls on earth is preplanned to some extent. Sometimes a short life is meant to balance out some karma in the far reaching justice of God.  Let's say an earthquake kills a thousand in a small town, but another thousand survive. Did God protect half the people and abandon the other half? The thousand that died were also loved and protected.  They did not really die, but they did make a transition to another realm of existence where they might be in better situations.  Most of us are not able to see beyond the veil. We don't really know how much time we will have on earth, but for the survivors they know that they still have reasons to be on earth.  Prayer helps for the over all love and care of souls, whether they survived the earthquake or not.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 3 in the first chapter of the Second Letter to the Orinthians in the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"Sometimes we may suffer for our beliefs.  I mean all of us, so we need to console each other and lift each other up.  That will make it easier for us to keep our minds steady and our hearts joyful during the temporary persecutions.  Mostly our lives are good and we know we can make it through the hard times.  God is with us no matter what comes, no doubt about that."

Commentary: Persecution for different religious and political beliefs has been a part of human history for a long time. .If facing persecution, then in order to stay in oneness, the ideal is to keep one's mind on the joy of God and to find support with fellow believers.  Do not strike back and thus get caught up in a dualistic struggle.
