oneness

Karmym

To the ego, the present moment hardly exists. Only past and future are considered important. This total reversal of the truth accounts for the fact that in the ego mode the mind is so dysfunctional. It is always concerned with keeping the past alive, because without it - who are you? (Eckhart Tolle)

Oneness is the logical and emotional recognition that we’re all part of the same whole and that we aren’t separate from each other. We’re all cells in the larger body of humanity. Its fate is our fate. If the body suffers, we all suffer for it. If the body thrives, we all benefit from it. When you fully internalize this mindset and commit yourself to it, something rather magical happens. The larger body recognizes your commitment to service, and it actively seeks to assist you. By helping you, the body is simply helping itself. What does the larger body of humanity actually want? Basically it wants the same things you do. It wants to survive and thrive, to be healthy, to learn and grow, to become stronger, and to creatively express itself. If you’re familiar with fractal geometry, the larger body is basically a zoomed-out version of you, and you are one of its cells. Since a fractal is self-similar at all levels of magnification, if the larger body of humanity is sick and unhealthy, that doesn’t bode well for its individual cells. However, by healing ourselves and by adopting the mindset of oneness, we work to create a strong and healthy humanity. - Steve Pavlina - art by Shawn Hocking 

Faith

30 August 2013 at 20:39

Faith is not a conviction, it is an affair. Yes a love affair between you and existence. Faith is rising of you, rising in you. Your faith is independent of any tradition, any preconcept. Yes it is not your concept. It is completely an unlearned language of your heart. With a faith in your heart, you remain untouched whatever may be the situation. Faith is a trusting, a deep trusting. Your faith is a faith in truth. Faith is the height of hope, peak of your hope.
Even impossibilities happen. You can move mountains when there is a deep faith in your heart. Yes, faith is that. Faith is the reflection of divinity in you. It is just beyond your thoughts and thinking. Your faith is natural; your faith is existential. It is the prime fragrance of the flower of your Being.
When you have faith at the deepest core of your being, something real starts happening in you. You feel immediate changes in your feelings. Darkness of fear and worries start disappearing. Your faith expands you a little more and you feel connected. Your whole inner space starts filling with a new light of confidence. The very first inner voice of your faith opens the window of trust, of truth.
