By myself, I am nothing but a shattered piece with a point in the heart. My desire alone is not enough. I need other people because we need to put ourselves back together to rebuild what was created before we descended. If I help others, that point becomes larger, the desire is enhanced, the stronger the reflected light will be, the more joy we can give our creator. Like it says in Nehamiah 8:10 …The joy of the Lord is my strength. It is his joy, not mine that is the most important, and it can only be given with the intention of the group.
Not really much of a question, but as I learn something new every week Bible verses I had long forgotten come to me. Nehamiah 8:10 reads And he said to them, “Go, eat fat foods and drink sweet drinks and send portions to whoever has nothing prepared, for the day is holy to our Lord, and do not be sad, for the joy of the Lord is your strength. .” I find myself emotionally charged and encouraged to keep studying, albeit still independently. When these seemingly random recollections happen is it perhaps a sign that the upper force might be preparing me for what’s to come? I pray every day for my future 10. I have no control of what environment he will bring my way and I have no way to do anything on my own. This is quite a bit to process.
There are several ingredients, love for your friends, intention to bestow to the group, studying and sharing together, paying attention to the teacher.
Know and accept that I cannot change my nature, I can only change my intention, and only the creator can change me to the point of being equivalent in form. I can only be altruistic with his help and no one else. I can only get into this state by putting myself in the right environment, working with Friends, by having a teacher, and studying the books of those who have already attained them.
Hi, I am looking for a glossary of terms. For instance, I am reading and rereading There is none else beside him. I can’t seem to find a sense of what the word organ means….or is this something I should feel instead of trying to understand
