The Embrace of God

I have had several encounters with the Holy Spirit (The Embrace of God) over the past few years. These encounters have come as a results of reading the sacred scriptures. Each time I encounted the Holy Spirit, I was reading the Holy Book of a different religion. The consequences of these encounters is that I believe that the same God sent each Holy Book and its religion as a gift to humanity.

The embrace of God is a peaceful and calming experience. It is an experience that I must write about. I have written one essay on the subject that I posted on writing.com (http://www.writing.com/authors/nfdarbe) where my handle is Prosperous Snow. I have also mentioned in on my blog (www.poet999.blogspot.com). This is another attempt at writing about it. I have to share this experience, I have no choice but to write about it.

Another results of these encounters with the Holy Spirit is that I view the different religions as chapters in God's book of love. God loves us so much that He (God has no gender, we refere to God as "He" because each of God's known messengers/prophets were male). These are the conclusions I have come to as a results of my encounters with the Holy Spirit.

Great comment, Bob. The embrace is definitely bi-directional or needs to be. The frustrating thing is that the books can light the way but are not the light. Reading and obsessing about a book is not the same as embracing God. The latter happens in real experience, outside of the book, interacting with the world, moment by moment. Religious masters know that but haven't traditionally made that widely known, I think, for reasons you mention perhaps?

I really loved this little blurb, and this is my reaction. It isn't a one way street to my notion, The Embrace of God goes both ways. When we feel embraced by God, we feel secure and all that, when we open to embrace God back(which incidently is the natutal exchange if we just get out of our own way) we know TRUTH, and our experience of it is sharing it with our brothers. It is from this experience that the HOLY or WHOLLY KNOWN TRUTH Books arrive here on Psycho Planet, and then humankind in it's infinite egotistical limitations spawns religions. There, I've said it, and I feel better.

Hi nfdarbe,

Your one statement says it all!
"I view the different religions as chapters in God's book of love."

What else do any of us need to know ?!!??

Amen!

Question to the Sphere of Knowledge.

“Are we sinners, is doomsday coming, which book and who is right, left, etc.” ??

All books of faith are penned in the trappings of constructs which serve their agenda. One seeks to know before one desires to understand, thus one only sees that which the faith has written, in word. The words guide one to awareness only if one desires to understand the knowledge of truth. Knowing the word brings not understanding without traveling the path. One is a tourist who carries a book which contains, fact, fiction, legend and warnings, “Don’t Drink the Water”.

These guides are translations of truth, which serve their agenda.

One must choose truth and the path of love to understand awareness. All*ways can be, for one is a creation of truth, if one seeks to understand truth one may choose love, if one seeks only to know the word, one may choose oblivion.

Know the Word

Follow*Love

Understand Truth

Doomsday or Bloomsday, is one's choice.

nfdarbe, thank you for this post. I observe that so much turmoil in the world seems due to this group's or that group's belief that they have a monopoly on what God is, what God wants and what God does not want. I think everyone should be intitled to their beliefs as it seems to me that it is only from there that they may evolve toward truth, whatever that may be.

From my point of view, there are only two modes of thought, word and deed, those that evolve you and those that do not. I think much peace can be found in simply embracing (thank you for that word) that we are in a process of evolution, and that everyone else in the world is as well regardless of whether they know it or not.

Best,
Jason.
