Life is Simple

We are God.

God is all that has existed, exists or ever can exist.

God is One and is unbounded by time, space, matter or anything else. God is ALL and knows ALL. And that’s where we come in.

We are God not yet aware that we are God. This allows us (God) to know that which we otherwise could not know, such as separation, birth, death and all the ills and joys that finite life is heir to. To know ALL God must know these things.

We are God not yet aware of our Godhood so that we can experience all that is limited and finite.

And this limited, finite state must of course end. After all, it is limited and finite. We are now in the process of witnessing that end. We are waking from our finite dream.

For further reading, I suggest the poem Dover Beach by Matthew Arnold, which can be found at the site http://poetry.poetryx.com/poems/18/

If you cry, remember that God could never cry without living the human experience. And a God that cannot cry is no God at all.
