Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone, namaste:

We are now moving on to paragraph 1 of chapter 10 in the First Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."

"Think deeply about our history friends, and be warned by past mistakes.  We've been in very comfortable places before.  We were were well fed and taken care of.  We thought we were on the high road to victory, but then we started taking it all for granted.  We became too outward looking and neglected to cultivate our inner connection with God.  Then when the hard outer times came we were not prepared, and many of us fell by the wayside.  I'm talking about past incarnations here."

Commentary:  If life becomes too easy then people may have the tendency to not look within for inner strength.  Still, the goal is to move beyond dualistic experiences and live in the oneness of God and be beyond the struggles of this earth, and by then you will have all the inner strength that you need and you won't take anything for granted. You will know what to do.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraphs 5 and 6 of chapter 9 in the First Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."  (page 86)

"Think of the athletes who train hard to win the glory of finishing first. The losers are forgotten and even the trophies and names of the winners fade into distant memories.  But establish your identity in God and you will know that you have eternal glory and ever-new joy.

I can't speak for you who are reading this, but I'm running hard for the finish line.  I'm flowing with energy and my mind is alert.  No kicking back for me.  You won't catch me napping and falling off the pace.  I may still have some weak moments, but they are fewer and further between."

Commentary:  Acceleration is the key. Once you are firmly on the path to Self-realization you will find that the closer you come to the goal, the faster you go. You are being pulled into the orbit of God.  The comparison to athletes stops here because athletes usually tire out at the end of the game or contest, but a person on the path back to God gets more and more energy and does even better.

Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 4 of chapter 9 in the First Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul." (page 86)

"Even though I have the freedom to do as I please, I have a schedule of voluntary commitments to come and present this message in person to a whole range of people.  I will talk to all religions and scientific groups about the oneness of life.  I will talk with the down and out as well as the high and mighty.  I can feel empathy with anyone, anywhere because God is everyone.  If I keep my awareness on God, I can accomplish more than I ever thought I could as a weak person separated from God.  So I don't want to just talk about the wonderful gospel, I intend to be the message."

Commentary: When you know that you are one with all life in God, then you will feel kinship with all life.
