JOHN MCINTOSH
It is common to hear in spirituality that Life, Light, God, Source is flowing ‘through’ you. It is a comforting concept that many ‘seekers’ embrace. However, it speaks of ‘separation’ and Truth is ONE – indivisible. Everything – EVERYTHING is ONE ‘appearing’ as many, like infinite fingers on ONE hand, it seems each finger is separate from the hand … IF, one ‘identifies’ with the finger.
Herein lies the trap that imprisons the ONE You Really Are to the experience of individuality and all its limitations.
Returning to this state of ONE-ness-Awareness is therefore NOT about ‘becoming’ what you already ‘are’ through some arduous practice(s) in a far off distant ‘time’. It is about simply ‘shifting’ your identification ‘back’ to the Real YOU – the ONE SELF. The ‘direct’ route HOME to this Awareness is Self Inquiry/Surrender.
