When the FedEx guy delivers a parcel do you worship him? Do you invite him inside for lunch and have a chat with him? Do you buy him gifts and express joy and happiness? The answer to these questions are NO.
You are more interested in the parcel or the message being received.
Why then when a spiritual master shares a message, our focus is on the master rather than what is being delivered by the master?
You do not have the same guy deliver your parcel each time do you? Each message or parcel comes with a new delivery guy. The parcel however can remain the same. Similarly many masters came each carrying the same message. No delivery guy is better than the other. No master is better than another.
The statement that “My religion or master is far superior than any other…” can only come from an ignorant, uneducated, brainwashed moron. There is no other way to describe such a person, as this defination is perfect to use in this scenario. You can only make that statement if you have never took the time to study any other spiritual or religious scripture. If you are Christian, read the Holy Quran or Bhagwath Gita. If you are muslim, read the Holy Bible or Bhagwath Gita. If you are hindu, read the Holy Quran or Holy Bible. Remember one thing though. Never believe everything you think, hear or read. Use your given intelligence to figure out what is God written and what is man written. How does one tell the difference? God written will make you feel love, accepted and joy. Man written will make you feel fearful, judged and rejected.
Let’s take 3 teachings that Master Christ is quoted for.
1. The Kingdom of heaven is within you.
?#?This means heaven exists within you. You are already standing at the gates of heaven, why do you think you will end up in hell?
2. I and our Father are one. Our Father and you are one.
?#?He never said MY father. It was only our father. Master Christ did not have and EGO. He didnt need to claim anything as his. This teaching also means that I am with the Father always in all ways. I am never separated from him. So even if I go to hell, I go with God.
3. Even the least among you will do even greater things than I have done.
#This shows that Christ was telling us that he is as we are. He came to show us the true reflection of who we are. To help us remember who we are.
Heaven and Hell both exist within us.
We can choose which to experience.
Do you need to win a Golden ticket to go to your parents home? No. You are welcome without reason. So why do you need to earn a place in Fathers Kingdom? You are always welcome.
Open your heart. Open your mind.
