Herbert Spencer stated that substance is “that which is not subject to
discord or decay." Spirit is substance, Spirit cannot die and
was never born, and we are Spirit. Consider Buddhism, it teaches
that what we see is illusion, impermanent, that
Everything is Zen. When I first heard this years ago I had
the
mental picture of a young Kwai Chang Caine of Kung Fu fame listening to his Master, a
puzzled look on his face, not understanding. Unlike TV's Caine we don't
have the luxury of jump cutting to where all is revealed. Years and a lot
of living were required before I found the Spiritual Basis for Living which
has
provided the answers for today I have
A New Pair of Glasses to view life with. I know in my heart of hearts that
I AM
Spirit, as are you, as are all, all eternal, that only the distorted
vision resulting from my human limitations driving my fears and perceived difficulties. That
I AM, we
are,
here to learn as long as this flesh lasts and when it ultimately fails,
to take the lessons learned to the next destination wherever that may
be, always moving forward in love and light. So struggle is pointless,
everything really is Zen (God) and since no one gets out alive, we might
as well enjoy the ride.
