Where Is Your Treasure?




Is your heart's fulfillment really rooted in this world? Have you found what you're looking for? Are you satisfied? Have you found peace and fulfillment in the temporal things of this life? Or has meditation opened the door to another way of living for you? Another world? I heard it once said that you don't join the movements of God~~~You're Ushered In~~~and there are many gurus, cults, and religions that want you to join them so that they can show you the way. When I was young I used to think that living the spiritual life might be that easy, but as in the picture above, we all go it alone~~~and the spiritual life is not to be found by joining a group. Sure there are fellow pilgrims you meet along the way, and even groups that refresh you on your journey~~~but only for a time. No matter how it comes at you the spiritual life is all about grace from God~~~Manna From Heaven~~~and the timeless spirit of our creator is in every fleeting moment. Such immortality is a living thing~~~always flowering~~~anew. It's the only thing that sustains the spiritual pilgrim as he or she meanders through this world~~~and really~~~it's the only thing that sustains the whole universe~~~that we are only but a part of.

All life in the spirit begins by asking the questions in your heart directly of God, for timeless questions are like spiritual seeds, and what is planted by the spirit grows by the spirit~~~one step, one moment at a time~~~and it's a journey back home, that is always perfect, even in it's imperfections. Krishnamurti said that Truth Is A Pathless Land when he dissolved the group gathered around him and called this solitary process, this spiritual sojourn~~~The Flowering of Aloneness~~~but in actuality? You are never really alone, for~~~All is One.

Insight upon insight change the way that you see and value this life, even impacting your long-held identities, as consciousness is no longer tormented by all the conflict involved in personal becoming~~~and self's achievements. Thought has limits. Death has beauty. Fulfillment requires nothing. Being nobody is everything. Meaning has escaped society's boundaries, for that which now nourishes and sustains you~~~is no longer of this world.

Like an innocent child be true to your heart and you will find more than you ever desired~~~at a price you never imagined that you could pay. The spiritual life? It's a living relationship with God~~~the proverbial Pearl of Great Price. And for those of you that would judge all this as delusional? Well it may be~~~but if you take a good look at the world around you~~~how insane is that?
