What Do I Want To 'SEE'?

Everyday is a choice of what I want to 'SEE' in the world, how can I become more and more aware of my True Identity.  One of the ways I do this is to try and focus only on The Light of the world which is the true nature of Spirit.  At other times, I try to BE comfortable about who I Am every moment. Most times I'm falling and getting up! Sometimes those moments don't feel good moments, but they help me to NOT judge me but instead go inwards and inquire 'why' only to come up with feeling that all is perfect no matter how loud the world may be screaming at me of its imperfections.  The dual nature of the mind wants to constantly judge what's good and what is not.  The singular nature of the mind 'Sees' everything as All That Is.  The Vedic Scriptures say "All is Brahman".  All is God. The Bible says "I Am the Lord your God.  There is no other". Enlightened Saints and Sages have shared their deep intimacy with Spirit and tell us there is only The One.  Life is vibrant with the Life and the Holy Breath of The Source. If I see anything else, then my vision needs correcting.  I am perfectly okay with that.  All Is Well.

Gems from the saints:

Francis of Assisi ~ "God came to my house and asked for charity. I fell to my knees and cried, Beloved, what may I give? Just love, he said, Just love."


Teresa of Avila ~ "How did those Christian priests ever get so serious and preach all that gloom? I don’t think God has tickled them yet. Beloved -- hurry!" 

John of The Cross ~ “What is Grace? I asked God. And He said, All that happens. Then he added, when I looked perplexed, Could not lovers say that every moment in their Beloved’s arms was grace? All existence is in my arms, though I well understand how one can turn away from me until the heart has wisdom.”

Rabia ~ “In my soul there is a temple, a shrine, a mosque, a church where I kneel. Prayer should bring us to an altar where no walls or names exist. Is there not a region of love where the sovereignty is illumined nothing, where ecstasy gets poured into itself and becomes lost, where the wing is fully alive but has no mind or body? In my soul there is a temple, a shrine, a mosque, a church that dissolve, that dissolve in God.”
