The Greatest Commandment

The greatest commandment: 

when Jesus was asked of the greatest commandment it was a two part reply - to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, placing worship of the divine above all else. The second part was a clear directive to love others as we love ourselves.Truly a task worthy of a Christian, and one that I've long wondered if we're capable of achieving, indeed, if we've even bothered to try. 

my consideration is this,

that we've succeeded on both accounts.

although not in the way imagined.

what's happened is that we've made God an object to be worshiped, materialistic, and a figurehead that resembles more our ego than anything truly divine. We worships images, possessions, and items, all at the expense of an all inclusive spirit. This is what we call God now, false idols that compromise our soul, leaving us void of any deep realization of our source. 

yet we certainly obey the above commandment...

fully worshiping the image that we've made.

as for loving others as we love ourselves? 

this too is obeyed.

our self love is only on the surface, there's little contact with our divine nature, no real belief that we are always connected to the source of our creation. We love others as we love ourselves and this is sadly only a mere token of our true depth of love. 

but the commandment is obeyed at least.

however,

there is a solution.

an inner revolution of worship.

we just need to remember who we really are.

to look within,

falling in love

heart

soul

mind.

seeing that there are no others apart from us - 

no separation from the divine.

and only love is real.
