Can 'being friends' lead to oneness with God
PHGroupMeditations
I don't know ...you tell me! Lets explore the concept together.
What does friendship mean to you ...does thinking about friendship
bring bad memories ...or on the flip side you might have a dear friend
and the minute you think about them you go to a place of great peace
and energy flows uninterrupted...even if you think that a passing
acquaintance might have what it takes to be a good friend...you just
haven't had the time to explore that relationship, thats good enough.
Just hone onto that feeling, concentrate on it and surround yourself
with that simple joy of a good connect with another...the faith that
they will understand what you are trying to say even before you say
it, of the knowing that no matter what they will always be there for
you . the comfort of being able to just be...be who you are , no
pretenses, no false appearances...now that is the exact relationship
you can share with God..It would be a good thing to have..don't you
think?
Can it be that simple..is the first step to realizing Oneness with God
be.. being friends with them.
When I read about this concept in my degree lessons from Astara...it
took me by surprise!
The Buddhist concept of Maitreyi was being explored in the lesson and
the concept just blew my mind!
All of us have so many different ideas about our relationship with
God..actually tell me...how many of us have given a serious thought to
exploring this relationship with the Supreme Being?
Can we be friends with God and can God be our Friend?...more
importantly what is stopping us from seeking the best friend we can
ever have?
Take care Dear Friend!
May God and Guru Bless you and your loved ones always
