What would you do if God spoke directly to your face and said: I command that you be happy in the world, as long as you live. What would you do then?
Richard Bach
What would you do?
Some organized religions have people believing that this life is a purgatory of sorts, a place of suffering. But spiritual teachers throughout the ages have have repeatedly told us that suffering is always optional.
Maybe we chose to be born this time to fulfill our unmet desires, an Eastern philosophy called Vasana (Wikipedia). Or we might have decided this incarnation is a way of seeking joy. Either way, we are not here to suffer.
Our sole purpose is to remember who we truly are, at the core. It is to embrace and integrate our humanity and our divinity.
It is empowering to take the time and examine your thoughts and beliefs around this. Explore this idea that a supreme being, be it called God, Goddess, Universe, or Allah, might just lean in and gently whisper, ‘I command that you be happy!’
- What do you feel when you read these words?
- Is it ok that you feel that way?
- What are your truths around this?
- And always follow each answer with another question: can I know this to be true?
The heart chakra is the center of your energy channels. It is the connection between your Divine self and your Human self. The heart will always point the way. Trust that.
Trust your heart.
