Out of many, One

There is but One Spirit.
There is but One Life.
There is only One, formed into the many ones.

Your “Illu­sion of Exis­tence” is formed by your ser­i­al pro­gres­sion through Worlds, Forms, and Lives that in each instance appear as sep­a­rate and dis­tinct from all that sur­rounds you. But you must under­stand that these par­ti­cles of mat­ter, these won­drous bod­ies that you require upon any mor­tal plane, are not what you are made of. They are mere­ly what you have formed for your­self out of the one Sub­stance, Spir­it-Mat­ter, which is the One Eter­nal Essence behind all these less­er forms.

Remem­ber, you, and all of Cre­ation, that you are Spir­it and as all in this Cre­ation from the most infin­i­tes­i­mal on up to the Plan­e­tary Sys­tems and Galax­ies and beyond, all of these Ener­gy-Forms are the Liv­ing real­iza­tion forged by the One, the Immor­tal spark of the Divine. The entire Uni­verse, and you, are a pre­cious part of the One Divine Life, and the illu­sion of exis­tence is that you are sep­a­rate from all of this, and that you must find some means of being made con­nect­ed and whole with­in your­self and your world.

But this is your illu­sion, because you are always and for­ev­er whole with­in your­self as you are equal­ly part of these greater fields and ener­gies that sur­round you too. You are “whole”, you are a whole whose very exis­tence is formed by ever more encom­pass­ing fields of Ener­gy-Forms or Wholes that ulti­mate­ly are expe­ri­enced as the One, or God or Spirit.

You began your pere­gri­na­tions in this Cos­mic Cycle as an unself-con­scious spark of the Divine, a pre­cious Mon­ad of Spir­it who went spi­ral­ing out into the Cos­mos to help form and become that very Cos­mos, the liv­ing body of the One.

But, you must also remem­ber this…you were not nor would you ever, (or could you ever) be alone. You went forth with count­less “broth­ers and sis­ters”, a host of many hosts, count­less sparks of the Divine, went forth to make this Uni­verse. You and your com­pan­ions, at this stage of your self-becom­ing, have jour­neyed forth to become a ful­ly formed human, to become ful­ly awak­ened humans by the end of this cos­mic cycle.

Today you enter that most spe­cial space of Zodi­a­cal Ener­gy-Form, that sacred space that is at the core of your expe­ri­ence of being whole and equal­ly being made by and being part of all these greater wholes too. Today you enter time of the Year that we cel­e­brate the Space of Libra.

For no mat­ter what your Sun Sign, there is some spe­cial part of you that is held in and formed by this Ener­gy-Form of Libra. How could you not? For Libra is the Sign of Rela­tion­ship, and you are most cer­tain­ly “you”, a sparkling dew­drop of the One Liv­ing Spir­it because of all these “rela­tions” that are with­in and around you. You are indeed you pre­cise­ly because you have been made by all the rela­tion­ships of your past, present, and those in your future too.

Yes, you are most cer­tain­ly made of and by one anoth­er. In life after life, you are forged and formed by all with whom you have direct and indi­rect rela­tion­ships. You are formed by your par­ents, grand­par­ents, uncles and aunts, sib­lings and friends, class­mates and col­leagues, by all your loves in this and in count­less for­mer lives; yes, you are a host formed by many hosts who in so many small and greater ways help to bring forth and elic­it the very spe­cial spark of the divine that is your “Quin­tes­sence”, the ever­last­ing pres­ence of you.

Yes, you move into what I call “Third Space” in the realm that is Libra. You are a whole unto your­self, you are a field of ener­gy-forms, you are in fact your own lit­tle Cos­mos, your own “space”. You encounter anoth­er, who is just like you, and they are a lit­tle Cos­mos too. And now, the most pre­cious and del­i­cate and won­drous thing must hap­pen, you togeth­er must form a space-field for your encounter, togeth­er you must cre­ate that Third Space that is your relationship.

You are each a whole, form­ing one anoth­er into a larg­er whole, a greater Cos­mos where­in you will inform, and shape and elic­it for one anoth­er the very “dance of spir­it” that is the Song of Life, Love and Will. It is this Song of Spir­it, this Cho­rus of Life that fills and forms all the spaces of Space. To meet the oth­er and form this space of rela­tion­ship requires you to reach deep with­in your­self and equal­ly with­in them too. It is forged and found­ed by the essen­tial truth of Spir­it, a re-affir­ma­tion of what always was and will for­ev­er be, “we are all related”.

Here in the “sacred space of we” you meet “the oth­er”, who is just like you. You look into the eyes of the one who is before you and you see it there, shin­ing upon you from the win­dow of their soul, and there in that light is “proof of eter­ni­ty”, and you are hum­bled and joy-filled by that feel­ing, “I know this, I know who you are”.

We do not encounter strangers on Earth, for we have been doing this for a very, very long time. We have loved and lost, fought and made peace, strug­gled for and against, time and time again. We are all mixed up in one anoth­er, so that we can claim no own­er­ship to any feel­ing, idea or truth. We are made of all these rela­tion­ships, so that our true expe­ri­ence of con­scious­ness is real­ly from the We and not our lim­it­ed I. We will meet again and again, so we say not good­bye but fare thee well until our next time…

We are who we are because of what we have been and done for and with one anoth­er. We will always be for one anoth­er the means of self-becom­ing, the instru­ment of awak­en­ing, of becom­ing ful­ly human. We are here to be one for all, and All for One.

Always and for­ev­er, be kind to one anoth­er, and remem­ber this:

You are here because of one another.

You are here because of Love.

You are here to Love and be Loved.

Just remem­ber, remem­ber who you are and

Love one another.

Namaste.
