I am inviting God’s Being to speak to me & AS ME, as We ARE in holy matrimony. The listening part of Our Being is our shared calm, noticing. The quiet listening part of Our Being, listens to our shared Voice.
I am the calm listening.
I am the restful listening.
I am the wholly-certain listening.
The noticing and listening knows Its Own Being. All is well.
We do nothing other than be & know and love Our Own Shared Voice.
There is nothing to fear but an illusion; and that illusion is the lie that separate realities are real and each one must protect & defend its own reality from another reality.
It is a fearful thought of separation that makes the illusion of separate realities appear real & threatening. The belief in separate realities engenders fear.
But the truth of Reality is that Its all-encompassing; perfect, whole & unconditionally loving. The Reality of Absolute Beingness welcomes and accepts as Its own & without resistance, all appearances equally; including the conflictual beliefs in separate realities: not because Absolute Beingness has mastered the fear of separation, but because there is but One Absolute Reality and it has no parts. There are no separate realities within the One Unified Reality.
All realities, even the ones unlike each other, are not in true conflict, but simply appear dressed up that way.
There’s just one United Reality, appearing as many divided ones. Each divided reality finds peace and security, not by conforming or getting the ‘others’ to conform, but by remembering and becoming fully established as the Absolute Unified Beingness Itself within ItSelf. There is just Unified Beingness loving ItSelf, inclusively & exclusively.
I hath, in this Day, refused to allow the doubts, persuasions and coercions of false authority to turn my being away from my Beloved Who is the Eternal Truth, and hath not weakened under the racket & uproar provoked by the religious and non-religious authorities to deter me from recognizing The Divine Message of The Beloved Friend. I am such a being regarded by God, the Lord of all, as one of His mighty signs, and am numbered among them whose names have been inscribed by the Pen of the Most High in His Book. Blessed am I, having surrendered my being into God’s Being, having recognized the true stature of re-union, and having acknowledged its station, and discovered its virtues.
Bahá’u’lláh
Gleanings from the writings of Bahá’u’lláh (p.159)
In the Rose Garden of changeless splendor, a Flower of utmost Beauty hath begun to bloom, compared to which every other flower is but a thorn, and before the brightness of Whose glory the very essence of beauty must pale and wither.
I bear witness to your arising, and, in Our Unified Beingness, I join in whole enthusiasm of your heart, with all the eagerness of your being, the full fervor of your will, and the concentrated efforts of your entire being, your striving to attain the paradise of Our Absolute Presence, and your endeavor to inhale the fragrance of the incorruptible Flower, to breathe the sweet savors of holiness, and to obtain a portion of this perfume of celestial glory.
In Our Unified Being, I see you following this counsel and breaking your chains asunder, tasting the abandonment of enchanted-possessive love, attaining unto your true heart’s desire, and surrendering your being into Our Beloved Being. I see your being bursting through your cage; even as the bird of the spirit; winging your flight to Our Holy and Everlasting Nest.”
Bahá’u’lláh
Gleanings from the writings of Bahá’u’lláh (p.321)
“Know thou of a truth: He that biddeth men be just and himself committeth iniquity is not of Me, even though he bear My name.”
Bahá’u’lláh
The Hidden Words – Arabic (p.28)
Know thou of a truth: He that biddeth men be unified is committing & perpetuating the belief in separation, is not of Me, even though he bear My name. “
Vaunt not thyself over the poor, for I lead him on his way and behold thee in thy evil plight and confound thee for evermore. “
Bahá’u’lláh
The Hidden Words – Arabic (p.25)
Aggrandize not thyself over the defiant & self-righteous, making real their sorrowful predicament; for I lead him on his way and leave thee in separation to behold thine own sorrowful predicament of shame & blame, confining thee to perpetual confusion. “
Notice when thoughts begin to act as critical authority, projecting feelings of resistance.
Drop the thoughts and ignore them completely. Turn attention to the resistance instead.
Be Still and know that you are God. Abide in & claim direct access to Purity of Being disguising ItSelf as ‘resistance’. In this full allowance of being resistance, resistance is recognized and felt as the innocent expression it already is, therefore it ceases to exist in its resistant expression. Critical thought also ceases to exist in its critical expression. In Purity of being, all resistant expressions of being are met with Open Presence, allowing them arise as their full expression. You need do nothing. Just let them be free.
What remains is What IS already: Ever-Abiding Unity of Being and Its generous gifts of peace, compassion & safety.
To the eternal I call thee, yet thou dost seek that which perisheth. What hath made thee turn away from Our desire and seek thine own? “
Bahá’u’lláh
The Hidden Words – Arabic (p.22)
To Unified Loving Being I call thee, yet thou dost seek for union in fearful separation. What hath made thee turn away from the Friend of the Heart and continue to seek for love in the stranger of separation? “
If the expression of love is authored as a meaningful friend, then the expression of fear will be authored as a meaningful foe.
Dividing absolute expression into friends and foes makes a world that doesn’t exist.
Looking beyond divided friend & foe, there’s the recognition of the Absolute Friend that does not see division at all.
This Friend is Absolutely Neutral. It holds no desire to gain or resistance to loss.
When the fearful (lacking, needing, demanding, assuming, oppositional) expression arises, any reaction is also free to arise. Every friend or foe expression is the same, not because a separate authority says so, but because both friend and foe are absolute expressions of the Absolute Friend.
There is no other authority.
Absolute Authority is a free-flowing, rising-falling-, energetic happening non-happening.
Absolute Authority is void of a separate authority within ItSelf that would give meaning to absolute expression and then to control that expression.
Any meaning given to absolute expression belongs to Absolute Authority, because no other authority exists to have authority over expression.
Absolute Authority is Its All-Encompassing Freedom to Express Itself in Its absolute expression.
The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice; turn not away therefrom if thou desirest Me, and neglect it not that I may confide in thee. By its aid thou shalt see with thine own eyes and not through the eyes of others, and shalt know of thine own knowledge and not through the knowledge of thy neighbor. Ponder this in thy heart; how it behooveth thee to be. Verily justice is My gift to thee and the sign of My loving-kindness. Set it then before thine eyes. “
Bahá’u’lláh
The Hidden Words – Arabic (p.2)
The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice; turn not away therefrom if thou desirest Me, and neglect it not that I may confide in thee. By its aid thou shalt see though the being of The Friend, and not see through the being of the stranger.
Thou shalt know of the true knowledge of the Being of Certitude, and not of the false knowledge of the being of bondage. Ponder this in thy heart; how it behooveth thee to be. Verily, being in resonance with being thine own Friend in thee, is My gift to thee and the sign of My loving-kindness. Set it then before thine eyes. “
