I have been thinking a lot about this for a very long time and today the answer appeared in my email. Wonderful.
"God indeed can be reached directly, for there is no
distance between Him and His Son. His awareness is in everyone's memory, and
His Word is written on everyone's heart. Yet this awareness and this memory can
arise across the threshold of the unconscious only where all barriers to truth
have been removed. In how many is this the case? Here then is the role of God's
teachers. They too have not attained the necessary understanding as yet, but
they have joined with others. This is what sets them apart from the world. And
it is this that enables others to leave the world with them. Alone they are
nothing. But in their joining is the Power of God." ~ A Course In Miracles/Manual for Teachers/Can God Be Reached Directly?
The path we choose is definitely in keeping with what our soul needs most in this moment in time. Then we move on as per the direction of our Inner Guide. The appearance of people in our lives is only for the purpose of learning. There's no right ones and wrong ones. Everything is perfect and works out in perfect accordance with God. Even while on the spiritual path, our mind of illusion still wants to make judgments. If we still have a conscious preference, we are still learning to transcend the ideas of opposites. We are all students and teachers at the same time. We each teach what we need to remember and learn the most. I love that. It makes perfect sense to me. It helps me to stay on track provided I don't allow the ego to take over with its opinions and judgments.
To sum up Jesus's teachings in one sentence:
Love All Without Judgement.
And that's why my Soul calls me to stay on The Path of Self Inquiry. It makes me questions all my questions, my motivations, my thoughts, the reasons for getting put off by other people's assumptions, the judgments, etc. etc. etc.
We are each guided. All Paths lead to The Light. Just follow the Sun!
Blessings of The Light.
May there be Happiness in all
May there be Peace in all
May there be Completeness in all
May there be Success in all
Om Shanti! Shanti! Shanti!
~ Brhadaranyaka Upanishads ~
