In Loving Memory

Judgment is a false belief. There isn't any room for judgment in one's life as it comes home to roost. To bypass judgment, one mustn't forget the old adage, "Love thy neighbor as thyself." Then, it becomes clear that in judging another, one is judging oneself. Experiencing life in terms of oneness means the line is clear - never give power to self-righteousness because in doing so, the self-righteous become righteous even more. In other words, one experiences oppression.


Self-determination is key. What one reaps, one sows. It has always been this way. It isn't up to anyone else to hoe the row. It is to the government and integrity of the individual to do the work because what one has is self-determination, to the exclusion of "other." The accusation of "other" excludes the Divine; "other" means a self-fulfilling purgatory:


My beloved aunt - always a mother to me, with the added special gift of sight - passed away last week. She was one of the most beautiful people I knew. When I flew to Washington from California to visit with my uncle a few days ago, I could feel my aunt's loving presence everywhere I opened my eyes. My uncle seemed to acknowledge the presence, too, as if something in his heart didn't die, even though her body had already been cremated. Her spirit is everlasting in our hearts and minds, as the Bible reminds us, "I will never forsake you."


Judgment is the moment one sacrifices Reality for one's selfish purposes. Call it "saving face" or the refusal to "give up the ghost." However, in the end, what Reality is must be acknowledged. Otherwise, it becomes obvious...and foolish...to hold on to past events and limiting beliefs. Awakening has an impact on one's psyche in a profound sense only experienced individually. One can't nag another to see life more holistically, beyond addictions, self-deprecating attitudes, and false beliefs, including the lack of self-worth.


The abiding love of the Eternal is ever present, ever fulfilling, and impossible to take from another. Presence is, as God is, and the Universe is, as Self-worthiness is. Abundance means never having a moment of loss, even when it's time to let go of the body.
