The Greatest Love Story Ever Told
The sages are largely consistent with the assertion that we are love itself and so is God. Indeed, they describe how a separation between the love that we are and the love that God is doesn’t exist, although we may often feel or believe this way. Our tendency to get invested in our sense of having a limited form, a limited story, a limited way of thinking and observing of “outside things” keeps us from seeing this truth. The thing that sees these seeming limitations is not itself limited, and how do we know it is not a shared “field of consciousness”? We are one in God – this is also the truth we hear from Jesus Christ. And yet, even knowing this, when we hear the famous Christian Biblical quote of John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life,” we interpret it from a place of division, believing that the “only Son” that we are to believe in is elsewhere and not already within us, as the love at our core.
Find Rebirth in What You Already Are
Many of the awakened sages speak of coming into a naturalness of life as they uncover the Divinity at their core. They say that their behaviour starts being dictated by their greater self, the Universe, God, and no longer by the earthly reactions to pressure and conditioning that their old self, their ego, used to exhibit. This coming into the naturalness of life is often expressed as coming into the love that we truly are, coming to know that our very consciousness or awareness makes us all one as the very “light” of God (as Christ called us). Many sages speak of this and some even go as far as to call it “being born again.”
