We come as infants from an energetic world with an absolute knowing of what our true essence is and somehow we get derailed for a while as we grow out of being toddlers. We circle back after years of wondering, trying to look for our beginning and the freedom that once we had, since the emptiness that we feel cannot be filled by anything else other than that essence which completes us.
Joyfulness, peace, love, compassion and happiness are considered to be our optimum goals and yet we dismiss the teachers who show us how to live it, since they cannot communicate verbally. If the teachers lead by examples then the best prospects would be the infants and toddlers. There is no record of any infants or toddlers desperately seeking appointments with psychiatrists and counselors in order to deal with anxiety, depression and emotional issues in an attempt to feel better and be joyful, simply because they already feel good. There are no statistics of any armies of children attacking other nations and destroying lives. There has never been a toddler who intentionally planned to abolish others in the name of humanity or otherwise. There has been no record of any infant presenting his/her case in court to sue others and be viscous because of a quarrel.
No one has ever heard of an infant or toddler spreading deceitfulness motivated by their personal agendas.
Historically, even when adults have come forward to tell us that the children are the true teachers and have the true essence of our source, we have disregarded them as being crazy and blasphemers needing to be punished for such ideas. When Jesus was asked by high priests and Pharisees about; “who shall enter the kingdom of heaven?”, he responded, “ I tell you the truth, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven unless you become like children again”. In the ignorance of those fixated by their reality being limited to only what they can see, they responded that; “this man is crazy; we must become like children again and enter our mothers’ wombs in order to get to heaven”. How wrong can we be in the name of EGO that promotes; only what I see exist, only if you are like me you are good, only if you have my status you are worthy, and only I can measure how much love may exist.
“Learn to get in touch with the innermost essence of your being. This true essence is beyond the ego. It is fearless; it is free; it is immune to criticism: it does not fear any challenge. It is beneath no one, superior to no one, and full of magic, mystery, and enchantment.” (By “Deepak Chopra”)
Who would you be if you were not raised by your parents and others whom in the name of their love, thought you all they knew, to define who you should be. Esther Hicks profoundly explains that; “It is like being born into a village that everyone is limping and when you start running freely, they scold you that you should not do such a thing and you should be limping like others. Finally when you do not perform, they club your knees to assure that your confined happiness is being met when you limp like the rest with limitations.”
“Beneath the surface of what appears to be all the actions, sits still the quietness of your ESSENCE, it is LOVE, it is LOVING and it is BEYOND THAT. EMBRACE it and MEET yourself AGAIN !!”.
