My Friends,
I made a typographical error (typo) that really altered the meaning of my post so I am posting a corrected copy.
The typo:
All life must enjoy the amenities of lie within its own sphere and when it has learned to maintain those accomplishments the person can then move on.
The correction:
All beings must enjoy the amenities of life within their own sphere and when they learn to maintain those accomplishments the lives can then move on.
What follows is the entire original post--including the above correction:
Dean quoting me from an earlier post:
Perhaps the greatest shortcut is soul contact. Then you will find heaven in the here and now and life on earth and off the earth will both be paradise. Works for me.
Dean's response:
And how can you be satisfied with the planet, when there are so many people suffering in the world. Do you have any compassion? Or maybe you are just not aware of what people are going through at this time of such unbalance and disharmony. I can see a better world than this.
WOW! What a leap in making a conclusion. Because I find heaven while living on earth this means I have no compassion and am mean spirited?
Jesus taught about the kingdom within and often talked about his peace that he attempted to share with others. Paul talked about the "Peace that passes all understanding" which he obviously found.
Did these men have no compassion because they found heaven while one earth?
So do you think that the Masters and even God himself cannot allow themselves to feel peaceful or happy because others suffer?
There will always be suffering somewhere. Do you suppose that because of this all the advanced lives in the universe are doomed to not enjoy happiness and peace for eternity?
Of course not.
That's like saying because plants do not think or move that we should identify with them and not think or move either.
All beings must enjoy the amenities of life within their own sphere and when they learn to maintain those accomplishments the lives can then move on.
For those who have discovered soul contact and beyond the greatest compassion they can show is to share the principles that bring it. When the kingdom within has been discovered then the discomforts as well as the comforts of the outer world have little impact or power to distract.
Seek first the kingdom of heaven and all that you desire will be given to you. Then you will find your desires have changed and that which you thought you wanted you will let go and that which you never considered, you will now desire with a spiritual passion.
