So why do we come here then?

This will be a lot shorter than I thought. :^). Actually, I wrote it, all of it, to its conclusion. And then did something and lost it. It alleged that it saved itself at 7:39. But if it did, I can’t find where that might be. And that’s the last time I write one in the Opera browser window, giggle, Firefox does not allow that to happen, it remembers and can always take you back to the place you were before, which is just one more reason to use it.

I want to talk about a question I am sometimes asked, by people to whom I have recommended the books, Conversations With God, Books 1 and 2. Well-meaning people, none of whom have any idea about the experiences, I have had, the lights, I mean. While I’ve posted those, as I explain on my main site, people to whom I have talked about them ARE familiar with CWG, which books, I am normally here, just going to call Book 1 or Book 2, for simplicity’s sake.

This, question, though, is both difficult and easy to answer. When talking to anyone who has read the books, and maybe had a chance to talk about them, or think about them, the concept isn’t unthinkable. It DOES seem a bit convenient to me, and jenna, tells me there is more to it than is in the books, so okay, maybe, just maybe convenient is good. Maybe convenient is the point. So I’m going to just say a bit about this tonight and then go into some detail tomorrow night.

Why we come here is at its heart about relationship. Not just human to human, giggle, or to pet, or to anything else, but to ourselves as much as anything. So I answer the question, for now, with another question. If you are in a place of perfect love, if you know nothing but that, if that really is all there is there, how do you know that? How do you know what perfect love is like if you have never had the experience of love which is not perfect? How could you possibly know?

The thing about what I felt in the presence of those lights, particularly the two light globes, is unlike ANYTHING I’ve ever felt here. It was the most glorious, wondrous, safest, complete feeling of love I’ve ever experienced. NOTHING here, no matter the moment, and I do know what love can be here and what that feels like – this experience pales, is nothing, compared to what I felt in those few seconds. But if I had not come here, if I didn’t know what this world feels like to be part of, to be in, if I had never left that perfect place, how could I know how perfect that really was? I am certain I would FEEL wonderful there, but I have to ask, how would I know that? It is like seeing through the eyes of a child. A child walking on grass for the first time. A child seeing a cow or a horse or anything at all, for the first time. The wonder, the BIG eyes, the desire to touch, the desire to cling. THAT is why we come here. I think it helps us, gives us the ability, to know just how special home is. Whether you define home as heaven, or nirvana, or Sirius, matters not in the slightest to me. What does is, that you could not possibly know that, without having had this experience here. That’s why we come here.

That’s why God created the relative universe. Tomorrow I’ll talk about that a bit. The difference between the triune truth of home and the duality of the relative universe. Duality, to me, means a continuum, a thing marks the beginning of a continuum of relationship, there is a line between these two things, at the other end of that line of is opposite, between the gradients between the two opposites. Hot – cold. Love – Fear. Here – there. Like that.

So until tomorrow evening, blessed be, and much love, :^) gene
