Be kind - to ALL. (man, beast and insect)

God in every form.

I refuse to partake in only one form of any emotion, I experience both dualities of everything and use what is best for the situation.

All and never should be used as a last resort.

if anything great or terrible comes out of me, I grantee it will not be headline news. That is the nature of my work and the world, only as a last resort will I claim a name and demand a throne. Kind of a **** move imo, but who knows what will happen!

Fear is a funny thing. What you fear is reality and the truth, so you create illusions that are much more terrifying and captivating.

The truth is we are all God, all part of the infinite play, so any "end" brought about by any great avatar would never be a real end, more like the end of a way of life, not the end of life, because life and God are infinite and eternal.

Peoples fears are super humans, rain of fire, eternal damnation, ya know, big screaming things that are like 'IM HERE, APOCALYPSE IS HERE", but any cosmic duel between light and dark will not be headlines, will not be in your face, will not absolve you from the test of faith. People wish that was their fear, including the apostle who wrote revelation, rather than the ultimate reality be true.

What that ultimate reality is requires work, sacrifice, effort. People want to be saved, so the literature about saviors is nice to them, not the stuff about work though, it has become shunned and forgotten.

Also I am 26 now, and very happy to awaken so young. It's going to be a long life of service, and I have ideas galore, with the first one coming up next year, and hopefully growing big within 1-5. It's about helping poverty and homelessness.

Yes, in realms like this, it can be a tough job, but everybody's got to do it, since everyone is, by virtue of their original nature, shards or emanations of Source. There are no superior or inferior shards, just uniquely individual ones that perfectly express a fractal of the infinite heart-mind of the one Divinity, aka the Self.

Hi Bob,
my take on it, and I have spent a lot of time learning about Avatars, is that there is a common misconception that we are all avatars. we aren`t. the original definition of Avatars, ie descent, from the hindu religion, refers to a fully god conscious aspect of the divine coming down to earth for the purposes of raising human consciousness (among other things). The being that descends is not human like us, they have no typical soul ataman, chakra structure, they don`t need them, they are already realised, they are the thing we aspire to become, or re become perhaps better put. Yes we are god, everything is, but an Avatar is like a hand of god. I`m not sure if that is clear, people seem to find the distinction hard to understand, but it is a mighty chasm from where we all are.

Hi Petey, and Thanks for your comment!

I do understand your opinion on the subject, and I appreciate you expressing it. That said, I would repeat that there are no greater or lesser parts of God, or Source. Certainly Anandamayi Ma is a unique expression of that Divinity, but so is the squirrel trying to gobble the seed we put out for the local birds. Of course, as long as we are committed to the dualistic view, we will see one as Divine and the other as mundane. Such a view however merely represents an error in judgment and appreciation. There is only one. Some beings who appear here in this realm recognize that fact (and among those, some go around proclaiming that truth, and religions form around their teachings), others learn while they are here, while others find out after they have discarded the body-mind and its accompanying amnesia and return to Spirit. In any case, we can all play our role as shards of Source by being just what we are. The more we inquire into what and who that actually is, the more we are left speechless, so I will leave it at that.

Blessings!
