| McDonald's loses the legal battle with chef Jamie Oliver, who proved that the food they sell is not fit to be ingested because it is highly toxic. Chef Jamie Oliver has won a battle against the world's largest junk food chain. Oliver proving how burgers are made. According to Oliver, the fat parts of meat are "washed" with ammoniac hydrogen and then used in the packaging of the meat "cake" to fill the burger. Before this process, according to the presenter, already this meat was not suitable for human consumption. Oliver, a radical activist chef, who has waged a war against the food industry, says: We’re talking about meat that would be sold as dog food and after this process it’s served to humans. In addition to the quality of meat, ammonium acid is harmful to health. Oliver says this: "The process of the pink crap". What sane human being would put a piece of meat soaked in ammonium hydrogen in the mouth of a child? In another of his initiatives Oliver has demonstrated how chicken nuggets are made: after selecting the "best parts", the rest: fat, skin, cartilage, visuals, bones, head, legs, are subjected to a mec split smoothie canica - it's the euphemism that engineers use in food, and then that blood pink paste is deodorant, bleached, re-refreshed and repainted, dipped in flour and fried melcocha, this is left in usually partially hydrogenated oils, that is, toxins. The food industry uses ammonium hydrogen as an anti-microbial agent, which allowed McDonald's to use meat in its burgers, which is not suitable for human consumption. But even more disturbing is the situation that these substances based on ammonium hydrogen are considered 'lawful components in the production process' in the food industry with the blessings of health authorities worldwide. So consumers will never be able to discover what substances they put in our food. PLEASE STOP FEEDING YOUR KIDS THIS FAKE FOOD because NOW YOU KNOW. https://www.facebook.com/100024169510325/posts/1101891820626458/?d=n |
Barely the day started and... it's already six in the evening. Barely arrived on Monday and it's already Friday. ... and the month is already over. ... and the year is almost over. ... and already 40, 50 or 60 years of our lives have passed. ... and we realize that we lost our parents, friends. and we realize it's too late to go back... So... Let's try, despite everything, to enjoy the remaining time... Let's keep looking for activities that we like... Let's put some color in our grey... Let's smile at the little things in life that put balm in our hearts. And despite everything, we must continue to enjoy with serenity this time we have left. Let's try to eliminate the afters... I'm doing it after... I'll say after... I'll think about it after... We leave everything for later like ′′ after ′′ is ours. Because what we don't understand is that: Afterwards, the coffee gets cold... afterwards, priorities change... Afterwards, the charm is broken... afterwards, health passes... Afterwards, the kids grow up... Afterwards parents get old... Afterwards, promises are forgotten... afterwards, the day becomes the night... afterwards life ends... And then it's often too late.... So... Let's leave nothing for later... Because still waiting see you later, we can lose the best moments, the best experiences, best friends, the best family... The day is today... The moment is now... We are no longer at the age where we can afford to postpone what needs to be done right away. So let's see if you have time to read this message and then share it. Or maybe you'll leave it for... ′′ later "... And you'll never share it.... |
| “The urge to find oneself is a sign that you are getting ready. The impulse always comes from within. Unless your time has come, you will have neither the desire nor the strength to go for self-Inquiry whole-heartedly. Ultimately, perfection is the destiny of all living beings. The possibility becomes a certainty when the notion of Enlightenment appears in the mind. Once a living being has heard and understood that deliverance is within his reach, he will never forget, for it is the first message from within. It will take root and grow and in due course take the blessed shape of the Guru. It is the inner Guru who takes you to the outer Guru, as a mother takes her child to the teacher. There is no difficulty in finding a true Guru, because the Guru is in search of you. The Guru is always ready, it is you who are not ready. You have to be ready to learn and you must trust and obey your Guru for he is the messenger of your real Self. The right attitude to have is to regard the entire Universe as your Guru. Then you can learn from everything if you are alert and intelligent. To rise in consciousness from one dimension to another, you need the help of a Guru. The Guru’s main purpose is the ending of sorrow. He sees people suffering and he wants them to wake up. Love is intolerant of pain and suffering. The patience of a Guru has no limits and therefore it cannot be defeated. The Guru never fails.” He also explains why feelings are so frequently mistaken for love: Every feeling is obstructed love. See every feeling as obstructed love and fix your attention on unchanging, boundless Love with all of your heart. Human love that is born of instinct has its defects because it is compelled. The relationship that exists between friends is the grandest of human loves. Friendly love is pure, because it is without compulsion. The ordinary human being does not know what love is. When somebody gives you pleasure you tend to think you love that person. But in reality it is yourself you love. Your ego has been pleased by the other person's attention; that is all. Would you go on 'loving' that person if he or she should cease to give you pleasure?” So the feeling of love is about yourself. How you feel about a person or how that person makes you feel is completely about you and not about the other person. And that’s not love, not real love. When you love someone it should not be because you want to be near that person, but because you want perfection for that soul. To wish for perfection for the loved one, and to feel pure joy in thinking of that soul, is Divine Love and that is the love of true friendship. Human love is short-lived. What became of all the lovers through the ages who have promised eternal fidelity to one another under the light of the silvery moon. Their skulls are strewn over the earth, and the moon laughs at most of them and says, "How they lied, for their love has not been forever." Only God and a real Guru who knows God, can truly love us. God's Love is the Supreme Love. There is no Love greater than that. It is God who is loving us through our loved ones; therefore, we should be all the more grateful to God who gives us a good mother and father, and good friends, and a Guru who wants for us only our highest good. The love of the mother is close to the perfection of God's love, because she loves us when nobody else does; and she forgives when we are in error. But the ultimate expression of God's love is the love of a true Guru. He loves us unconditionally; and out of that sublime love he instructs and disciplines us for the everlasting welfare of our souls. Though I shall always dearly love my mother, my love for my Guru is supreme. This quote from the Bhagavad Gita best sums up the true nature of love: "Those who love Me as only one person, or who imperfectly love Me in one person, do not know what Love is. Only they can know Love who love Me wisely, faultlessly, completely, all-surrenderingly - who love Me perfectly and equally in all, and who love Me perfectly and equally as all..........” |
| Husband to wife :- Today is a fine day. Next day he says :- Today is a fine day. Again next day, he says same thing - Today is a fine day. Finally after a week, the wife can't take it and asks her husband :- Since last one week, you are saying this 'Today is a fine day'. I am fed up. What's the matter? Husband :- Last week when we had an argument, you said,"I will leave you one fine day." I was just trying to remind you. 😷😷😷 |
| Sayings of Anandamayi Ma . 1. There is One unchanging indivisible Reality which, though unmanifest, reveals Itself in infinite multiplicity and diversity. 2. That One – the Supreme Truth – is ever present everywhere in all circumstances. 3. Referred to as Brahman, He is no other than God Almighty. 4. God Almighty is nameless and formless; yet all names and forms are His. 5. He is the Father, Mother, Guru, Friend, Creator, Preserver, Destroyer – everything. 6. His essence is Being, Consciousness and Bliss. 7. Indeed, He is in everything and everything is in Him; there is nothing but Him. 8. Try to see God in everything and in everybody, including yourself. 9. God Himself is revealed in some guise even in individuals supposed to be sinners, as also in Suffering seemingly unbearable. 10. The vision of the Eternal Lila of the Supreme Being is impossible unless one has seen His Bliss in His universality and self-sufficiency and unless one finds this repeated in one in union with, and as part of, the whole. 11. The immutable Brahman and the primeval sound AUM are one and the same as (the word) Ma. 12. God’s name is He Himself – the Name and the Named are identical. 13. Refuge has to be sought in His Name in order to realize Him Whose Name is invoked. 14. At every breath try to be in communion with Him through His Name. 15. If the Name that appeals most to you is constantly repeated, you will realize that all names are His Names, all forms are His forms. 16. Since all names are His indeed, He will let Himself be grasped by any one of them; furthermore, it will gradually be revealed that He is also without name and without form. 17. Whether with full awareness or in ignorance, whether willingly or unwillingly, whether with faith or in doubt, if God’s name is adhered to, and His image in the mind is sustained, gradually what is to be burnt will burn and what is to be melted will melt. 18. The nature of fire is to convert everything into itself. Similarly, association with His Name inevitably enables one to be identified with Him. 19. Take it from me – repetition of His Name makes everything possible. 20. If you live with the conviction that God is in the closest contact with you, you will gradually discover that there is nothing but God. 21. If at all your “I” remains, let it exist only as His servant or as His child and, therefore, the notion that He is far removed will be ruled out. 22. The more one thinks of one’s Ishta (beloved Deity), the firmer will one’s faith in Him grow. 23. People meditate in front of a picture. But what is a mere picture? Just paper! Yet if faith is maintained in meditation, the Lord Himself appears in that picture. 24. Faith is always blind; but this blind faith may ultimately lead to firm belief. 25. You cannot find the Mother until the faith awakens in you that whatever the Mother does is all for the best of Her child. 26. God Himself appears as the Guru. He has to be invoked, full of faith. 27. Just as a vigraha must not be regarded as a piece of stone, so the Guru must not be regarded as an ordinary human being. 28. The signification of the word “guru” is “Jagadguru” (World Teacher). A World Teacher is one who diverts men from the path leading to death and puts him on the path of Immortality. He who does this is the “inner Guru”. 29. Once the Guru has accepted a disciple, He will never leave him until the goal has been attained. The question of leaving does not arise at all. 30. The Guru actually emerges from within. When genuine search takes effect, his genuine manifestation is bound to occur; it cannot possibly be otherwise. 31. The One Himself assuming the shape of the Guru of His own accord brings about His manifestation or becomes manifested. 32. There is “nothing” in this world; yet everyone is madly pursuing this nothing – some more, some less. 33. What a comedy God’s Lila is! What a lunatic asylum! He Himself is sporting with Himself! 34. Man is no other than the Self; but he wrongly thinks of himself as a separate individual centre on his body and identified by a particular name. 35. All sorrow is due to the fact that many are seen where there is only One. 36. Duality is pain. So long as man does not wake up to his identity with the One, the cycle of birth and death continues for him. 37. In wealth and property there is certainly no peace. 38. If you choose to feed upon the objects of the senses, you move towards the realm of death. 39. Sense enjoyment acts like slow poison. You are driven thereby towards death. Therefore, it is Man’s duty as a human being to get into the current that leads to immortality. 40. When the mind is full of worldly desires, it is their very nature to confuse the mind. Withdraw the mind from outer things and turn it inwards. 41. According as worldly interests decrease, one progresses towards real joy. 42. Even while living in the world, you can with a calm spirit attend to spiritual practices. Then only will that which is to be given up, falls away; and that which can never be relinquished, which does not go, that indeed will remain. 43. In proportion as one loves God, detachment from sense objects ensues. To concentrate on God means to become drawn towards Him. And vairagya (detachment) means becoming disentangled from sense objects. Feeling of attraction towards God and indifference to sense objects occur simultaneously. 44. The search after Truth is man’s duty, so that he may advance towards immortality. 45. Your sole duty is to remember that He alone is, and that everything is His doing. 46. Invoke Him and be constantly intent on realizing Him. 47. Householders should emulate the ancient Rishis, who were married men living with their families and leading a life dedicated to God. 48. Love and serve you consort and children as Divine manifestations. Perform all works as God’s service. 49. Since you seek ownership of the garden, you feel unhappy. Be the gardener instead of trying to be the owner, and then you will feel happy. 50. What is life-breath is really an aspect of the Universal, all-pervasive Energy that functions continuously; it is He in one of His forms – He Who is Truth Consciousness, revealing Himself in this mode. 51. Endeavor to concentrate on the breath; this will provide a check on the mind preventing it from wandering away to outer objects. 52. Restlessness and serenity both are aspects of the mind. 53. Do not allow your mind to wander here and there; endeavor to make it one-pointed; have one single end in view. 54. Water inside a pitcher noisily moves to and fro when the pitcher is disturbed. But as soon as the pitcher is placed in a position of equilibrium, the water becomes calm. Similarly, sit for long in a steadfast posture with your mind concentrated on one fixed thought or aim, the restlessness of your mind will be slowly subdued. 55. When engaged in japa you are attentively to mark the motions of your breathing – inhaling and exhaling; if your mind tries to stray to and fro, forcibly attune it to your breathing; this will slowly set in the process of calming your mind. 56. Utensils used for worshiping a god or goddess must be washed clean and bright, the place for worship also must be careful scrubbed and kept clean. Then the mind of the worshiper will also feel a sense of purity. Mind you – your body also is a ceremonial vessel to be used mainly for worship. This will bring inner purity of the mind. 57. You need at least two meals a day. Similarly, you should remember God and chant His Name at least twice a day – say, morning and evening. This is for your mind’s well-being. 58. If you do not like to meditate on an image, you are just to sit still and carefully attend to your breathing; you may not do anything else; even this practice will quieten your mind. 59. “Who am I?” With this attitude endeavor to let the mind stand back as a witness. Search after your Self. As long as possible, sit immersed in meditation, becoming quite still, steady and fully concentrated. 60. It is natural for worldly desires to try to take exclusive possession of your mind. These confuse the mind. 61. Control your mind for sense objects. Be moderate in eating, sleeping. As a pilgrim on the path to God, you should be content with such food and sleep as will help you to remain fit for the onward march. 62. Discipline of the tongue and other sense organs will help the mind to withdraw from outer things and will turn it inwards. 63. Regular prayer purifies the mind and the heart. Set apart at least ten minutes for your daily prayer at a fixed hour. You may even go on doing your usual work during this period, but observe silence and meditate on Him in any way you like. See that throughout your life there should be no slackness in regularity and punctuality. 64. Whatever may be your shortcomings, don’t be depressed, don’t lose hope. Try to improve yourself. 65. Exert yourself to the limits of your power, however feeble. He is there to fulfill what has been left undone. 66. Begin here and now, it is never too late to begin. 67. How can you expect to see the road when you have kept your door shut? Open the door and you will see the road. 68. Proceed along this road where you will meet many fellow-travelers who will of their own accord enquire about your destination. They will often direct you to the right path, if you have chosen the wrong one. 69. Everyone should start along the lines taught by his own religion. 70. By saying “I cannot” one does not get far. One has to acquire capacity and achieve his end. 71. By God’s grace one is born as a human being. Try to make the best of this opportunity. Everything is possible for man. 72. Even though someone may slip and fall, he will not remain lying on the ground but will attempt to rise, stand up and walk again. 73. The speed of advancing must become brisk. In order to find your Self, progress along your own path, in your own rhythm. 74. How long do you want to stay in the wayside inn? Will you not go to your own Home? How nice to think – you are yourself your home, you are also the pilgrim, and at the same time a foreign visitor! 75. A spiritual traveler must not allow his mind to be distracted by anything; he should proceed with firm determination towards his goal. 76. Don’t sit idle. Always be engaged in doing something useful. Either chant God’s Name in silence or read a good book, or discuss good topic. But don’t waste your valuable time in idle gossip. 77. Even though you feel that your spiritual practice is mere tedious reiteration, it is this very practice that will clear the path for you within you. 78. Whatever spiritual exercise, ritual and so forth one is engaged in, should be carried out with faith and love. No ritual should be performed irreverently. 79. It is by yearning and pining for Him that the One is found. In times of adversity and distress as well as in times of well-being and good fortunes, try to seek refuge in the One alone. Keep in mind that whatever He does is wholly for the best. He is the fountain of goodness. 80. Prayer never goes in vain. So long as no response is received, prayer must be continued. 81. It is but the Self that calls Itself, and none other than the Self that realizes Itself. 82. By ceaseless prayer He Who is Akhands (whole) is found. One’s own Self, the Life of one’s life, the Beloved of One’s heart is the One to be eagerly sought. 83. There is One Centre in your being from Which come vibrations of Mantra; images also are revealed there from together with the Truth underlying them. Who is it that does all this? Reflect! He dwells within you and does everything. He awakens enthusiasm, He inspires without you knowing it. He is the omniscient Being. Why speak of Self-realization in the future? It is here and now – only the veil that hides It has to be destroyed. 84. Relative happiness, that is to say, happiness depending on the fulfillment of any worldly desire, ends in grief. 85. A worldly desire, if unfulfilled, makes you miserable; if fulfilled, it is almost invariably followed by some other desire and the chain of desire disturbs your peace of mind. 86. You will have peace only if you can rise above worldly desires. 87. So long sa one believes that true happiness can be had in this world without searching within, one will remain in bondage. 88. Strive to abandon yourself, without reserve, to Him. Then you will have no grief, no pain, no disappointment, no frustration. 89. He is the fountain of Peace and the treasure-house of real Happiness. 90. It is only when you leave everything to Him that there is hope for Peace and Happiness. 91. In Him is all attainment, the summit of fulfillment. 92. Perfect resignation gives the deepest joy. Accept it as your sole resource. 93. Unconditional surrender to Him is the best solace for man. 94. Among all creatures man alone has been endowed with the capacity to realize God. 95. Man’d bounden duty is to endeavor to awake to his real nature as a human being and to kindle the desire to realize. 96. “Who am I?”. This realization is the purpose of human life. 97. Don’t indulge in cynical despair. Don’t say: “Realization is not for me, not for me!”. Resolve with determination “I must attain Self-realization, I must.” Doubt is sin. 98. Self-realization is God-realization and God-realization is Self-realization. 99. It is the Will of the Almighty that prevails. By living in harmony with His Will and becoming an instrument in His hands you should try to realize Him. 100. What does Atma-darshana, the direct perception of the Self, imply? The seer, the seen and the act of seeing – where these three are One, there the Brahman is realized. |
A man found a beautiful pearl. It was very beautiful but a small flaw in it. The man thought, if he can remove the flaw, it would be the biggest and most beautiful pearl ever in his possession. He peeled off a layer to correct the flaw. The flaw was still there. He peeled off another layer, the flaw was still there. He kept on peeling off the layers until all the layers were gone. Now there was no flaw, but there was no pearl too. In this life, no one is PERFECT. Each person you meet would have some FLAW or the other. You will end up losing the person completely while trying to correct his/her flaws. So try to learn by accepting people with their flaws and you will be surrounded by beautiful people all around you...Imperfection is beautiful too ! |
| A devotee asked, "It seems that someone requested permission to take you round the whole of the country for propaganda and for preaching." Bhagavan replied, "Yes. That was Swami Rajeshwarananda himself. You know he used to live here some years ago. At that time, he was drawing up plans for touring the whole of India ; to which important places we should go for delivering lectures ; how a special train was to be arranged for travel ; how many days to stay in the various places, and so on. I used to hear all that he said and keep quiet. He mistook my silence for consent. Ultimately he arranged to travel by first class, packed all things and said, "Swami, shall we start?". "Yes. Why not? Go and come back". I said. "What about Bhagavan?". He said. "Me. Why?". I said. "You must preach the essence of the Advaita to the people in the whole of India, Swami". He said. "Is that so? What can I do? Where to stay? Where to go? I have no place to go". I said. He was taken aback. During the early days of the arrival of motor cars into this country, several people used to buy cars, bring them here, and say, "If Bhagavan gets into the car but once, we will take it round the hill and return immediately. Please get in Swami". Where was I to go, getting into such things, said Bhagavan. See what is stated in Mahavakya Ratnamala: "What is there for me to do, Where am I to go, What am I to accept and what am I to discard, Since I pervade the entire universe like the waters of the final deluge". |
Freeman Dyson, the famous physicist and mathematician, realized at age fifteen that there is only one of us. We are all the same person. At the end of 2018, when I published this excerpt, I wrote to Professor Dyson to ask whether his enlightenment had stuck with him for the whole of his long life. He wrote back and said that it had. Our brief emails are reprinted at the bottom of this page. —Editor, Realization.org "Like everybody else at that time [1938, the year before World War II began in Europe, when Dyson was 15], I worried a great deal about the approaching war. I was not concerned about winning it or losing it. It seemed then that there was an equally small chance that anything worth preserving would survive the war, whether we won it or lost it. The war was for me an unconditional evil. I was concerned only to do whatever I could to stop it from happening. And the only way to stop it was to change the hearts and minds of the warmakers on both sides. It was clear that only a radical change in their way of thinking could do the job." Reprinted from Disturbing the Universe. "I tried hard to understand the deeper causes of the hatreds that were driving us to war. I concluded that the basic cause of war was injustice. If all men had a fair share of the world’s goods, if all of us were given an equal chance in the game of life, then there would be no hatred and no war. So I asked myself the age-old questions, why does God permit war, and why does God permit injustice, and I found no answers. The problem of injustice seemed to me even more intractable than the problem of war. I was gifted with brains, good health, books, education, a loving family, not to mention food, clothing, and shelter. How could I imagine a world in which the Welsh coal miner’s son and the Indian peasant could be as lucky as I was? Enlightenment came to me suddenly and unexpectedly one afternoon in March when I was walking up to the school notice board to see whether my name was on the list for tomorrow's football game. I was not on the list. And in a blinding flash of inner light I saw the answer to both my problems, the problem of war and the problem of injustice. The answer was amazingly simple. I called it Cosmic Unity. Cosmic Unity said: There is only one of us. We are all the same person. I am you and I am Winston Churchill and Hitler and Gandhi and everybody. There is no problem of injustice because your sufferings are also mine. There will be no problem of war as soon as you understand that in killing me you are only killing yourself. For some days I quietly worked out in my own mind the metaphysics of Cosmic Unity. The more I thought about it, the more convinced I became that it was the living truth. It was logically incontrovertible. It provided for the first time a firm foundation for ethics. It offered mankind the radical change of heart and mind that was our only hope of peace at a time of desperate danger. Only one small problem remained. I must find a way to convert the world to my way of thinking. The work of conversion began slowly. I am not a good preacher. After I had expounded the new faith two or three times to my friends at school, I found it difficult to hold their attention. They were not anxious to hear more about it. They had a tendency to run away when they saw me coming. They were good-natured boys, and generally tolerant of eccentricity, but they were repelled by my tone of moral earnestness. When I preached at them I sounded too much like the headmaster. So in the end I made only two converts, one wholehearted and one half-hearted. Even the whole-hearted convert did not share in the work of preaching. He liked to keep his beliefs to himself. I, too, began to suspect that I lacked some of the essential qualities of a religious leader. Relativity was more in my line. After a few months I gave up trying to make converts. When some friend would come up to me and say cheerfully, “How's cosmajoonity doing today?” I would just answer, “Fine, thank you,” and let it go at that. In the summer vacation I made one last attempt at a conversion. I asked my mother to come out for another walk along the dike and I laid before her my message of hope and glory. She was obviously very happy to see that I had discovered there are more things in heaven and earth than differential equations. She smiled at me and said very little. After I had finished talking I asked her what she thought about it all. She answered slowly, “Yes. I have believed something rather like that for a very long time.” Text copyright © 1979 Freeman J. Dyson Freeman Dyson (1923-2020) was a famous theoretical physicist and mathematician. At the time of his death he was professor emeritus at the Institute for Advanced Study. A short email correspondence between the editor of this site and Professor Dyson December 15, 2018 Dear Professor Dyson, I read recently with great interest your remarks in Disturbing the Universe about enlightenment and Cosmic Unity. I’m curious to know whether your enlightenment stuck with you during your entire life, and whether it developed and grew deeper. If you’ve written more about this subject elsewhere I would be grateful for a pointer to it. Best wishes, Freddie (Freddie Yam, editor, https://realization.org) Professor Dyson’s reply: January 14, 2019 Dear Freddie Yam, Thanks for your message. In a long life there are many ups and downs, but the basic attitudes do not change. Eighty years later, I look back on the “Cosmic Unity” episode not as a youthful folly but as a lasting gift. I wrote a little more about mind in the universe in other books, but not much. My book “Infinite in All Directions” was a set of Gifford lectures given in Aberdeen, with only one chapter about science and religion. The main point is that science and religion are two windows looking out at the same universe, but we cannot look through both at the same time. They give different and complementary views. The world is too large to be understood from a single viewpoint. But I like to keep my science and my religion separate. I am now traveling away from my books and cannot give you an exact reference for the “Infinite in All Directions” book. You can easily find a reference to it on line. With all good wishes for the new year, yours sincerely, Freeman Dyson. |
| The metaphysical method of physical transfer of disease is known to highly advanced yogis. A strong man may assist a weak one by helping the latter to carry a heavy load; a spiritual superman is able to minimize the physical and mental troubles of his disciples by assuming a part of their karmic burdens…a master willingly sacrifices a portion of his bodily wealth to lighten the misery of disciples.* … JESUS signified himself as a ransom for the sins of many. With his divine powers,* Christ could never have been subjected to death by crucifixion if he had not willingly cooperated with the subtle cosmic law of cause and effect. He thus took on himself the consequences of others’ karma, especially that of his disciples. In this manner they were highly purified and made fit to receive the omnipresent consciousness or Holy Ghost that later descended upon them. *Footnote: Christ said, just before he was led away to be crucified: “Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?” |
I have struggled with myself whether or not to write this article, I am aware that so man people hold dear their relationship with God and do not want that questioned in anyway. I have decided I will write but in a very open way, in a calm voice that can accommodate both critics and friends. This article is about the Justice of God and the forgiveness of Man. To be Just is to be equal while to forgive is to be above. Justice serves the offender equal pain as the offended has felt. Forgiveness means that the offended is beyond the offence and the corresponding pain. There is a Bible story we should consider together, it is the story of Justice and a possibility of forgiveness that was not considered. A certain king had sent his soldiers to the war front but decided to rest a while on the rooftop. It was from there he saw a woman having a bath. This woman happened to be the wife of one of his soldiers. She was of beautiful features and loving stature. She will make my day he thought, he asked that she be brought to him immediately. Beersheba came into David's chambers, she was laid on the royal bed and exchange energy with the king. They had themselves. And she reluctantly went home as they made promises for a next time 🤗 One day, David received news that she was pregnant of the king's seed. Oh no.... How will her husband feel? He thought. I will have to do something. He sent for Uriah Beersheba's husband. When he arrived, David persuaded him to take some days off to be with his wife; this way, David wanted the child to be the man's. Uriah declined his offer and rather slept by the king's gate. Long story short, David had him killed at the battlefield, and proceeded to marry Beersheba. The man who could have forgiven him has died, David is left with God, God does not forgive, he judge. For justice, God killed Beersheba's child and three other of David's Sons. Had David spoken with Uriah, I am certain that he would have received his forgiveness, man has that power to rise above his pain, God doesn't. The very display of Jesus's crucifixion for the justice of man's transgression, is another example amongst many that God cannot forgive. Forgiveness is too large for God to contain. He does not show mercy but justice. Where there is offering for sin, there is no forgiveness but justice. You have paid for what you did. Man is higher than all deities. Man is superior to the gods Man is the most high. |
