We all admit that we are seeking knowledge.
And we all want a better planet.
But to have that there are things that have to be non-existent.
The problem arises when we try to make those things non-existing.
When we focus on any one thing we close off our ability to see the things around it.
Do you realize that if you were to place your hand and a piece of wood
under a microscope, you can actually magnify them to a point that you wouldn't be able
to tell them apart?
And we (as humans) don't know at what level (or magnification) we see things.
So many talk about "enlightenment" but they don't truly try to "enlighten" themselves.
They are so caught up "crusading" against something that they forget they are creators.
Darkness flees from the light. We all know this.
So how do we get rid of the darkness in our lives?
By becoming brighter lights ourselves.
By just focusing on what we are created to be and how bright we can get our own light to shine;
We eliminate more and more darkness.
How do we do that?
By turning away from the world and the things within it.
Anything and everything that is not bringing you closer to your creator
is a distraction.
The Lords ways are not like the ways of the earth. We know this.
We are even told (Romans 12) Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Enlightenment is a spiritual and mental thing. That has to be learned to conjoin with the physical.
That means giving up all the petty physical things that distract you from living "enlightened".
Yes you have to eat and sleep. And if you chose you can (and is good) to have a mate. (Lev. 18: 22-24(Another subject)
But the true "key" to enlightenment is to just focus on yourself.
If someone says "follow me" then, they are telling you to leave your own path.
If someone says "We must destroy this" then, they are telling you not to create.
You can only see as far as your eyes allow you to see.
Light up as much of THAT area as you can.
If something is not directly involved in your existence.
Then ignore it. If God wanted you to worry about it He would have placed YOU there.
I'm not saying that these things don't have to be changed.
What I'm saying is quit fighting other peoples battles.
You have enough on your own plate. Look at it.
If everybody just focused on being the best they could;(keeping their own plate clean)
Then no one would be running around doing things they KNEW were wrong.
And we ALL do things that we KNOW are wrong.
Bottom line....
If everyone was only concerned with how much light they were actually "emitting";
Then (by nature) there wouldn't be very many dark corners.
Just worry about you. And the world you can directly effect.
When you go to bed at night; Be able to say to God...
I did no wrong.
