We Are All Connected:




We Are All Connected:


Ever heard the expression 'we are all one human family,' or that 'all beings come from the same source. I am sure you have at some time in your life. Well, here is my understanding of this perception.

I believe that we are all infinite beings that have been able to appear finite, some elements of our infinite nature. In other words, the infinite or invisible, through it's own processes, are able to manifest itself in different, forms, elements, or even solids or matter. And the human organism is just one aspect of that transformation of invisible energy.

I also believe that this connection never ceases, even when it takes on different aspects of itself. For example, when the invisible is transformed in animals, water, human, birds, or even plants. This life force is still connected. Some humans can trace their ancestral link genetically currently, but we can also trace our invisible link too.

But this will take some effort to understand, process, and access.

I have read some enlightened men or sages talk of being in a state of total awareness, and in that state, they were able to see, comprehend, and understand the entire universe, its' function, and the roles we humans play in this cosmic experience/drama.

Sounds impossible, but I do believe that it is possible to be so in tune with our inner being, that all of those things most of us feel is important, real, interesting, or false, is only a reflection of the invisible and incomprehensible process, that the brain is still grappling with.

Therefore, I have come to understand the expression enlightenment, and what it truly means.

I think it means that state of being, and knowing who we are, where, what, why, and how things are, the way they are, or seem to be. And when that realization takes place, the enlightened one, understands everything. And has no further need to question any longer.

Om Shanti.
