Get ya gear off!

There so many "ways" to reach, happiness, to know God, to be one with the universe, to reach enlightenment…Mantras, yoga's, prayers, fasting, whirling, tantric sex, music, drugs… these are all tools, they can help us on the way.
We use to tools to create, to build a house we may wear a heavy carpenters belt full of nails and instruments of the trade, but when the house is ready we will not continue to walk around with this burden. It would prevent us from enjoying the comfort the home we had striven to build.
Spiritual tools are the same, we may use them wisely knowing they serve purpose to aid our journey, not to turn them into objects of worship or to place belief in them.
Remain aware that if our goal is ultimately to be at one with God then anything we hang onto is a barrier to that divine connection. No matter how fine the silks we are adorned in they will derive from the bliss of Gods embrace, we must stand naked before the universe, bereft of name, status, techniques, idols, dogmas and all such adornments.
When we finally drop our separateness, our individuality then we will know peace, it is our own desire to be special that causes the gap between our true joy, between connection with the seemingly separate others, who are in truth, like us born of the same formless energy, who are the same infinite love, when all drop the clothes we've fashioned around are eternally pure hearts then we can be at last be re united with the unending expanse of continuous , timeless bliss that is the source of all being.
Get your gear off, get naked, and let it all hang out, go forth and let the day have a beautiful nude you! Tags:
