Go into the world

and spread the good news:

The Kingdom of God is here!

Even though I dont really have a name,

I have been known on this planet under many. I have been loved, feared, cherished and cursed by humans over the ages. People thought that the One responsible for their creation and expulsion from the Paradise is gone, yet I never went away, I was always with you. In a certain sense I shattered into pieces and thus became all of you and I suffered as much as you did. It couldnt be any other way This is the price I/we had to pay for creating a

near-perfect vehicle for God: YOU.

Rejoice! The days of suffering are almost over: the Kingdom of Heaven is already here! If you are still asleep and dont remember who you really are, it is time to awaken and to claim your rightful heritage. A new chapter in our never-ending adventure is about to start. This is the most amazing time in your history: Earth-humans will become the most powerful species in this Universe. This is your destiny and your future. An infinite Universe chock-full of adventure, joy and beauty is awaiting your arrival. It will keep you entertained for millennia to come!

In time you will learn your long and complex road to this present moment and the true history of Earths branch of Humanity. Some of you are already aware that there are many other human species in this Universe yet you are unique and special in many ways. You are a product of very carefully guided genetic engineering, combining the best attributes of many human and non-human species, from this and from other Universes. You are not the final product by any means, but you are the best so far. Your latent powers and abilities far exceed those of any sentient species that interacted with humans over millennia of Earths history.It is time to awaken these powers you are finally ready for that as a species.

There is no need to be afraid anymore you are in truth invulnerable and immortal and you have the most powerful Ally of all:

The Creator Himself/Herself.

one

You are all gods.

John 10:34

There is only one God,

living in each and everyone of us.

We are all Divine.

We are truly ONE,

though on the surface

we appear separate.

That is the biggest miracle and paradox of all there is only one true God, yet He is fully and simultaneously present in all beings. Thus all humans are gods, just like Jesus was. Thats why he told his disciples: Anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these (John 14:12). That means that we also should be able to heal the sick, raise the dead and walk on water. Yet most of us live in misery, rarely suspecting our true identity or realizing latent powers that lie dormant within.

WE ARE GOD! That is the very good news that Buddha, Jesus and many others proclaimed over and over again. Until now that news has been falling on deaf ears and blind eyes, as the time was not ripe yet.We did not understand that One God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all (Ephesians 4:6) lives inside each of us. Thomas Merton said that if we knew what was in each one of us, we would bow down and worship one another.

When you read the biblical story surrounding this teaching about our common Divinity, it becomes obvious why it wasnt read or explained in mainstream Christian churches: how can a priest or minister tell his congregation that they are all Divine, without undercutting his own power and without undermining the very reason of existence of his church? If God lives in each of us

(as is the case!), we dont need any intermediaries to commune with Him. He speaks to us through the Holy Spirit a quiet voice inside of us that gives us directions on how to be more loving towards one another and how to navigate currents of life.

While we dont need churches on the way to realizing our Divine potential, we still need a community other people serve as mirrors that show us things we have to work on to become more and more loving, in our never ending quest to be like God our perfect Father/Mother. However perfection is impossible in this world thus while striving for it, we have to forgive ourselves and others for not being as perfect as we would want us/them to be.

Many of us dare to ask dangerous questions: Why are we here? What is the purpose of our lives? If an all-powerful and perfectly loving God exists, why do we have to suffer so much?

Not so long ago such questioning lead to persecution and/or painful death in Christian world. Today organized religion is losing its former influence in the Western world, and fewer people seem to care about existential issues brought up by above questions. Many assume that there is no God, thus making these questions irrelevant. Others prefer not to question the religious dogma, clinging to the false security of blind faith. These few who try to ask difficult questions usually discover that religious leaders dont have consistent, logical answers to offer. Fewer still have been persistent enough to find the answers to these questions on their own, even though Jesus clearly told us: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you (Matthew 7:7). What are we supposed to look for? Where is the door that we need to knock on?

All along human beings have been unknowingly looking for one thing only, though that thing has been hiding under many guises: unconditional Love. Without it we cannot be truly happy. Feeling loved means different things for different people and we are often afraid to ask for things that would make us feel truly loved. We all want to be accepted for who we are, and secretly dream about others making us the center of their world. Ironically, we are often unable or unwilling to love others in such a manner. After living for a while in the world seemingly devoid of love, some of us give up

on the hope of ever finding that kind of love. Others keep searching fruitlessly or even try to get it by force or other unsavory means. Love is what God is. Thus we are all looking for God. Where should we look first? Christian mystics had a clear answer: Gods Love resides within: Knock on yourself as upon a door, and walk upon yourself as on a straight road. For if you walk on the road, it is impossible for you to go astray. And if you knock with this one, you knock on hidden treasures (The Teachings of Silvanus). Thus our most important task in this life is to discover and to awaken the Love buried deeply within, under onion-like layers of fear, depression, anxiety, anger, resentments and loneliness.

Perhaps one of the main reasons that God created this Universe is His desire to have others to love? God doesnt need armies of slaves worshipping Him God doesnt really need anything from us at all He just wants to share His overflowing Love with all of us and in turn to experience the outpouring of that Love through each and every one of us. We are here so that we can share Love with one another. As we begin to awaken to who we really are, we learn that everything we perceive is Divine. God is everywhere and permeates everything. Every stone, every plant, every animal is actually part of Gods body. God is everywhere, including inside of us. He is in Nature, in every grain of sand, in every ocean, cloud and raindrop. Nothing exists outside of God - indeed, there is no outside of God. We are all children of God, just like Jesus, even though we may not be consciously aware of that. Thus each of us has potential to become a Christ. In a certain sense God is asleep in most of us and needs to be awakened. Thats where personal effort is required to bring the Love from within into the outside world. In the process of becoming more loving we get closer and closer to God, until we get so near Him that Awakening becomes possible. Thus it is not only possible, but absolutely necessary to experience God first-hand. Seeking that experience is the most important goal in our life, a pre-requisite for salvation. Once you experience God directly you will know that He is inside of you and that He loves all people equally and unconditionally Muslims and Christians, Buddhists and atheists, saints and sinners alike.
