“LOVE ONE ANOTHER” This is the simple message of God to mankind. And while the message is simple the practice of it is far from it. So God sent us many enlightened entities to help us along our journey. People would recognize the truth of what these entities were saying, in time these entities would eventually return to God. Leaving behind groups that were dedicated to spreading this truth to others. These groups became religions who would idolize the messenger, and sometimes alter to message to fit the belief system they have created. They began Creating ceremonies, rituals, and hierarchy; to give structure to their new belief system, and then came the actual physical structures. Eventually all of this becomes“tradition.”

 All new religions are considered“CULTS” at first, but if they survive they eventually become the ESTABLISHED RELIGION. The living truth can get lost behind all these rituals, and ceremony's. God is not a tradition that needs to be perpetuated by ceremony. God is the living truth that needs to be applied to every aspect of your life. God inspired individuals to write books to act as“owners manuals” to assist us. The Bible, Qur'an, Torah, I ching, and others are powerful reference books to use on your JOURNEY. These books have survived hundreds of years, countless translations have been added to and subtracted from, and still hold much truth and insight for us to use. It is important to remember that the simple message behind this massive amount of literature is”LOVE ONE ANOTHER.” Its a moment to moment challenge.

 Don't get so attached to a rigid interpretation of Scripture that you are blind to the living truth. God inspires individuals every day to write books, songs, paint pictures, and speak this simple message.. Words can confuse us, and while I've been using the word God, I don't feel that God is God's name. The Great Spirit, Allah, Jehovah, Heavenly father, the force, are all used to describe this positive creative force that is in and surrounds us. These names can distract us from“THE MESSAGE” So I will refer to this creative force as“O”.

 It is important to remember that this life is a journey. We will never reach a point where we can say“I'm here!“ its good to remember this when you feel your behind your deadline.. you are“to blessed to be stressed”. No one can
