Perhaps inspired by yesterday's Zoom study group, "The Search for God," or perhaps because it was raining, I picked up "神の詩", a Hindu holy book that I had purchased last November but had put away after reading only a few pages, and read straight through to the second chapter.
According to Edgar Cayce, there is a trinity of soul, mind and body. We are a part of the oneness, which is the vibration of life, and the mind is its expression, and the body is the temple of the soul.
Oneness: Whether it be Jesus Christ of Christianity, Shakyamuni of Buddhism, Krishna of Hinduism, or Kukai, the founder of Shingon Buddhism, all awakened human beings, across time and space, have realized the same thing and are saying the same thing.
It's not a question of whether we can do it or not, but whether we will do or will not.
Now that we know, all we can do is do it. In each place, without forcing ourselves, at our own pace and in our own way.
Live like you're dead. Always smile, and live that smile. These two words, which sound like opposites, are saying exactly the same thing, and it's a great thing to even realize that.
The only way to achieve spiritual liberation is to keep doing what is in front of us without worrying about the outcome.
We are not given any trials that we cannot overcome. Yesterday, Mr. Mitsuda gave us three tools to help us continue to strive to be mediums of love:
1.In order not to get caught up in phenomena, but to become a. channel for God's love, let us. stand firm in our determination. to cut off all unnecessary actions, emotions, and behavior and offer. them to the Lord.
2. Understand that the unpleasant. phenomenon ends here and that. this is the sublimation of karma.
3. Accept that you have been given. the ability to believe that the. Lord is always with you and will. always help you.
Mr. Mitsuda's guidance yesterday was appropriate and impressive.
I am deeply grateful for God’s constant guidance and blessings.
