Which do we choose: the world of the ego or the Kingdom of God?


The ego’s goal is as unified as the Holy Spirit’s, and it is because of this that their goals can never be reconciled in any way or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. The Holy Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, because the Holy Spirit sees no order of difficulty in healing. Healing is the way to undo the belief in differences, being the only way of perceiving the Sonship as one. This perception is therefore in accord with the laws of God, even in a state of mind that is out of accord with His. The strength of right perception is so great that it brings the mind into accord with His, because it serves His Voice, which is in all of you. T-7.IV.5:1-7

The ego tells us we are drops while the Holy Spirit tells us we are the ocean. Which is right? Which do you want to believe? Which thought system will bring us peace and bliss?


In Unitarian Universalism some of us join together to affirm and promote the respect and love for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part. The Holy Spirit nurtures us to a nondual level of consciousness which is similar to the interdependent web or creation.


Today it is suggested that we reflect on what we prefer to focus on: the world of the ego with its divisions and separations or the Kingdom of God which is the nondual awareness of healed consciousness?
