Do I believe in GOD? Yes, with my whole heart and
soul. But, do I believe that GOD is this old man living up in the clouds? That
is what I was taught as a child, but as I grew older and witnessed the horrors
that men commit against each other, I’ve become cynical of the teachings of religion.
How I ask, can a Creator that not only made us, but all
life throughout the Universe be okay with us hating another one of his
creatures? Why would a powerful Creator subscribe to one religion using murder
and terrorism to attack others? Why would this Creator subscribe to the
speeches of hate that have been in the news lately?
The answer is simple: The Creator does not endorse
negativity of any type, shape or form. The Creator is the ultimate life force
and as a life force, His mission and
motto is “BE and let BE.” And yet, here
we are ready to kill in his name.
Who is GOD?
GOD is certainly not the myth of religions. God is
pure energy and pure love. His energy is what created the universe and all the
life forms that are evolving on all the planets that are scattered through the
universes and, through the different dimensions.
Early man had no way of understanding the depth or
range of the universe and mankind certainly had no way of understanding that
everything, including themselves, was made up of the Creator’s life-force-energy
and because he didn’t, he made up stories to explain this power. He gave GOD a
name; many names to be exact. Mankind went about building temples of gold where
daily sacrifices were offered to the GOD of many names. When the temples weren’t
enough, Man began a methodical indoctrination of the masses.
It was all about
power and control, but with the threat of an eternity spent in hell, lay people
were coerced into following the laws of the many religions. For the lay people,
the laws were hard to bear upon their shoulders, but for the leaders of
religion, they had found Nirvana: willing slaves that followed their every
instruction. Any dispute was treated as heresy and, the solution was often a
painful public death. All the while, wars continued to be fought in the name of
God, while the poor and the vulnerable were mowed under the wheels of the war
machine.
Here we are in the year 2017 and the people of Earth
are no closer to peace and harmony than they were since they crawled out of
that primordial soup of evolution. Do we place the blame at God’s door?
Because, after all, he is all powerful and we were promised by our religious
leaders that if we followed the “True” religion, we would be saved.
Maybe...the problem is with us...maybe we are
looking for God in all the wrong places...maybe science can help us understand
just how powerful God has made each and every one of us.
May the Force Be With You
He is the Force...okay, I’m going Star Wars here a
bit, but it will help you understand where I’m headed. We are made up of atoms,
we are light, and we are truly the dust of stars long gone: We are energy with
no ending. We are GOD’s energy that is vibrating at a lower level than his.
Everything has his energy! Think about this...every planet, every sun, every
moon, every leaf, tree, rock, animal, bird, fish, insect, bacteria and
virus...we are the sum total of GOD.
There are many scientific explanations for energy and
many types of energy, but the one I’ll use is this: energy is the ability to
move forward. Living entities are always moving forward from one life to
another. Our soul’s energy doesn’t die when we shed our bodies. Our souls go on
and on and on. GOD is E=Mc2
We have been reborn over and over since the
beginning of time...for God is time and space. We have lived on every planet
and in every dimension and we are doing this simultaneously at most points in
our existence. There is no set place to hold the energy of life except in the
Soul, which is the mirror of God. We reflect his energy in our soul...and the
soul craves life and knowledge. The soul wants to be like GOD...to be GOD.
Become the Force
Again, I ask for your forgiveness in using a Star
War phrase, but to become close to God, we need to look only within ourselves.
GOD lives in each of us. He doesn’t need temples and there is only one law. “BE
and let BE.” Once we start to look at
other life forms on this Earth as fellow mini gods in training, we will
understand that we are all equal parts of the whole...every person, every
animal, and every plant on every world and every dimension.
