It is made to sound so hard, but it really isn't. It is so simple its hard!

It isn't hard to go outside and look at everyone you see and think, he is a part of me, she is a part of me, so is he and them.

Look at the vagrant in the street - he is a part of you and a part of me. Look at the rapist, the hurt person in haiti, the mugger, the Samaritan, the healers, the dentists! the "whatever" it is they are, he/she/they are part of me and part of you.

Look at that sunny friendly smile, she/he is part of me/we/you.

Fellow fragments of all that is, there is only one of us here.

Namaste

A..

I hear ya, Anchor. And I think most of the people on this form do as well. The problem, in my experience, is, that even though you're stating what's pretty much obvious to us here, there isn't much point telling others. I mean, think about it: how did YOU find out? Were you just told and started to believe it? Or even were coerced to accept it as your faith? I don't think so. I think you, just like me or anyone else who knows, must have EXPERIENCED it, or you'd be just parroting what you've read in new-age literature or something. So unless you make people experience it, those words won't reach them.
If I read them 10 years ago, I'd think it was some funky esoteric stuff and wouldn't give a ***. 5 years ago I would have thought it was kinda poetic way to look at the world. And still wouldn't have understood what the hell ya talking about.
