Divinity & The Self (Just a random thought.)

It's hard to believe in GOD when we are taught and conditioned to seek his or her existence, outside of ourselves. We are encouraged to believe in the existence of divinity as separate, distant and removed from who, what and from where, we are. We are programed to accept that we are less than sacred and somehow stained with imperfections which limits our ability to commune with GOD thus, needing the assistance of another, who is more intimate with his nature.

This inaccurate notion, causes many to become spiritually subjugated. Because of this spiritual subjugation, some rebel against the orthodox and stringent religious systems and reject GOD all together. Others opt for a more personal spiritual path by establishing a personal relationship with the possibility of divinity, entertaining and eventually accepting, the possibility of their own divinity and how it relates to the divinity within others. True Spirituality is autonomous.

If we cannot accept GOD as a supreme creative living entity than let us choose to understand our own divinity and our relationship with the universe and the the individual relationships others have with the universe. Another way to understand GOD, is to understand ourselves and how we interact with other living beings, taking into consideration, ALL THINGS ARE ALIVE in ways that may be familiar to us or in other completely alien expressions of life that are, as of yet, outside of our comprehension. What connects all of us to each other and divinity is our ability to understand our divinity and the divinity inherent in all things.
