Infinite beings incarcerated in finite shells

This ain't it, It's merely a chapter in your souls journey. Surely then we should not allow the very hard personal knocks in this one life time to colour our existence this time around. But we do, don't we ?

So we go through life feeling damaged in any number of ways, all of which are personal and very real to us.

Yet, if you consider the process of creation and your very integral and important part in it you get a hint that you are a part of something significantly greater than this one life alone,

Rise above your story in this one life and come to terms with the fact that you are an integral part of creation and specifically that this you now is but a blink of the eye and that there is a significantly greater proportion of you that is non corporeal than is in what you call living this one life.

You are much, much greater. like the tip of the comet, there is much more behind you.

Think of this when you experience the victim mentality when pertaining to this one existence,

You now, your life is just the toe in one particular pool.

Yeah I get some of you might not have realised it yet, but you know what ? You are brilliant. You might not feel very brilliant. but you are to me.

Afterthought,

I am in no way attempting to devalue this one life, I am suggesting that it is much, much better than it would at first appear to be.

Hello Neville,

I thank you for the words of encouragement. To me, get a sense of realizing that our potential(s) is greater then one may dare to imagine.

Yes there can be comfort found in the trust that we are Creations' children.
Still, there is the living of this life and its responsibilities. I do not feel you are refuting this, it is just part of the puzzle, I suppose.

For me it comes down to what one places one trust in. In the temporary or in the eternal and finding the balance of the two and we are of both at this moment.

Not detracting from your wonderful message, just adding some thoughts it has brought to me.

Thank you again.

Love and Blessings

I wish I had that same knowledge as you do Neville. I am still struggling with the idea that we only get this one life and when its over, we're done. I think I would be infinitely happier and more at peace if I knew what you knew.

Thanks for your words anyway, they are at least hopeful.

Incarcerated?

That doesn't sound like a fun way of seeing it.

I prefer to think of the body-mind as a vehicle for the soul and spirit to interact and evolve in this world.


And, Scibat... one vehicle in a series, as our true nature is neither born nor dies. You can come to know this for yourself through meditation.

I also prefer "incarnated" rather than incarcerated. I believe we chose to be here in these outfits for the grand play of physical life. If I felt incarcerated here I would have to have some strong words for the warden!

I love knowing the depth of my true existence while at the same time experiencing what there is here while in a physical body.

Love and Light

Perhaps you are correct, I personally would have chosen incarnated also but it was not my message to convey


The inspired message , I feel was specifically aligned to those who do feel this life is a burden a prison of emotional and physical anguish.

I only give what I get anyway

I think the message came from pretty high up as it all seemed very profound to me, the crux of the message seems sound enough though.

Best wishes Neville.

Love the body. Embrace it and receive it with kindness and love. It is the temple of the soul.

The body is the innocent scapegoat for all negative thoughts and desires...and the vehicle for our higher, metaphysical existence in the physical world, where all growth and evolution of the spirit occurs for us.

And since we still need to grow and evolve, incarnation in the body is our only passport to an evolved and radiant soul.

Peace,
7L
