Now Be Here, Be Here Now

Where were we before we were conceived? One moment we didn't exist and then by an act of love, we did. In that single cell, the fertilized egg, everything about us was there: our eye color, the shape of our fingernails, hair color, final height, sex, our blueprint of freckles, everything that makes us, us, all in a point of protoplasm so small as to be invisible to the naked eye, pretty amazing. Then we began to grow and nine months (give or take) later we made our appearance on the world stage. Fast forward a few decades and we arrive at another seminal moment in life, when the time in this flesh comes to an end. Where’d we go? Consider: Before we were born we were nowhere physically, we are born, and now we are now here. Then our physical body ceases to function and we are nowhere again. Same word, just a little different spacing: nowhere to now here to nowhere again. (Tip of the hat to Wayne Dyer and Baba Ram Dass.)

In truth, we have always been “here”, part of, connected to Source, Divine Consciousness immanent, the flesh merely a tool, a conveyance in this time for our eternal consciousness. We didn’t arrive from anywhere and we don’t go anywhere. Our birthday and death day are points on a relatively meaningless calendar, since God and our consciousness are eternal. Living on the Spiritual Basis we spend this life applying spiritual truth and understanding to everything in our lives to the best of our awareness at the time since our awakening is an ongoing process. In so doing the answers to the eternal questions come if we are diligent. So don’t concern yourself with what is on the other side of the line, for the line really is immaterial, for death waits for all men but waits on no man.  Keep your eyes and thoughts on today’s demonstrations and the morrow will take care of its self. In living this way we will approach the transition in peace, embracing the change, bidding farewell to the limitations of flesh, going nowhere, being here now in raised consciousness.
