Myths, Dreams, Light and Shadows - And the Dawn

There is a myth that God created the world we see - and yet filled with pain and suffering we are left with the mystery of why a Force of Love would create a world such as this? The ancient Vedic Seers called this world Maya, or an ilussion and the Buddha later continued this thought with an Eightfold Path to see the reality beyond the deception of our minds. The world we see is a projection our collected egos and has nothing to do with the true perception of the world according to a Course in Moracles. The answer to the question of why would God create such a world is simply He didn't - we did. In our accidental dream of separation we projected our guilt and suffering outward into a world of self created pain. And ever since we have yearned in hidden moments to return to the sanctuary of our Oneness with God. Yet as every dream there is a dawn of realization that what we are dreaming is but a moment played as light and shadows and it not the truth of our world. And then we awaken. In this true dawn we find ourselves again One within the mind of God - our home and one we dreamed we left behind.

Peace,
Eric
