Discussion 2

Perhaps it is possible to interpret that Jesus by saying he was the son of God, he meant to say that all humanity was the children of God. The image of God is nothing but us, which is God himself. However, to get to the realization where Jesus was at, where the union with the oneness or God and where the non-dualism overwhelms our senses, takes certain hardships that Jesus went through himself. And, by taking the less taken path or the harder path, the path to seek nothing but the truth instead of looking for religions, perhaps, we can realize the union too, where it is the only reality and this illusion of dualism is vanished. Thus, we are revealed as what we really are, nothing but the oneness itself.

And, there have been other accounts, perhaps lesser known than Jesus, where souls have realized their true nature, and have called out themselves nothing but God. If this interpretation is taken as true, then perhaps we can see that Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Christianity or any word or any sect yells out or means nothing but God, and all that separates us from reaching the realization of Jesus is the lack of passion to realize or search the truth, which Jesus's or Mansur AlHallaj's or Kabir's or Mohammad's or Buddha's or Rumi's or Bulleh Shah's or others'--with state of union with the oneness or realization of the non-dualism where it remains the only truth-- lives epitomize the best.

May the Oneness, help us reach the same realization of Jesus, If that is what you believe in; though every belief, ritual, word, religion, action, sect, breath, then, now, this, that, everything points to or means or in essence is nothing but the Oneness--or Allah, Yahweh, Khuda, Ram, Ahura Mazda, OM, God or however you may choose to call. Amen.


Allow me to quote, one of my masters, Sachal Sarmast or simply: Sachoo's, poem. He in his ecstatic state said:


                         You by yourself, know what is in your form!
                         Why chant 'Allah Allah'? Find Allah within you.
                         You listen, you see, Allah's word is witness,
                         There is no doubt, O Sachal! that the Lord is One!

Amen.
