There is this spark in each of us that is who and what we really are.
It is what I AM and also what you are. It is in this spark that the desire to ‘join’ starts. There is a need to become one with our origins, the Universe, in a very organic way.
It is like a magnet drawing us all together. The chaos is created by the unawareness of our unique place or function. Like a puzzle, each piece is needed to create the whole, and there is not a single piece that is unnecessary. When you try to make the wrong piece fit all you achieve is the destruction of the whole.
Has it occurred to anyone else out there that all of our societal systems and civilizations promote this? This clumping as I see it, is the first step in creating separatism and competition between the groups. The more of that clumping that occurs the harder it is to shed it. Grouping seems a better description of a cooperative effort stemming from real thought and intention.
So if I am a:
- single
- white
- mother
- on a street
- in a neighborhood
- in a city
- in a county
- in a state
- in a country
- on a continent
- in a hemisphere
- on a planet
I have automatically built 12 walls to set me apart from the rest of humanity.
The last label unites me with earthlings but perpetuates the separation from other extra terrestrial races. It goes on and on.
I can bring in nationalities, hair color, language, or religion indefinitely until I am isolated from the rest of the universe.
This is where most of us seem to live.
This isolated state is brought on by focusing on the differences between us. The more we isolate ourselves mentally the more an emotional need develops to belong. It can be no other way based on cause and effect. When we become really aware of our uniqueness we find that that is in fact the ultimate unifying factor because it applies to EVERYONE!
Now that we have had a moment to step back and understand that the separation is itself an illusion because we are all inside the same universe, do you feel different?
Have you ever looked at it from that angle?
Can you wrap your mind around the fact that the more we try to belong the harder it becomes to find our group? Focusing on our similarities erases the sense of isolation. It satisfies because it is truth. Traveling teaches me that people are just people wherever you go. We all have the same fears and desires. We want to be accepted and loved, no matter what language we speak.
We do all have places we belong. The skin cells all bond together to create that system in the whole as do bone cells or any of the other different systems of the organism. It is when those systems do not work smoothly within the framework that illness and even death occur.
Health, is merely the cooperation of unique entities toward a common goal.
There are physical systems, mental systems and emotional and spiritual systems. The unique combination of these form what we are in this world, human. If any one of these systems is out of sync the whole suffers. Not just our individual being but the entire race. Everything each of us does affects the whole of creation.
I created a visual to try and make this easier to understand. You can find it here.
We are all part of this same thing called life. When we stop fighting against ourselves everyone and everything will win. Losers aren’t natural, it is a condition imposed by the mindset of humanity.
