Experience of the Infinite

It seems not to be possible to pass on experiences of the Infinite, which is fundamental, through words alone. This is the problem of teachers in the spiritual field. Their words have been misinterpreted, and with the passage of time the distance from the original words, and their true meaning, increases. At the same time, a lot of the original message can be lost in translation.

History and present-day events show that misinterpretations often lead to conflicts and wars in the religious sphere. So what is the real message of the prophets? Their intention was to share the understanding that the Infinite power of Life can be recognized within us, as ourselves. Every soul has the opportunity to experience this reality.

The misunderstanding is that we glorify the prophets and the teachers and make them unlike anything we are. This is how we are confused. Salvation is said to be obtained through belief in other persons and not through our own experience of who we are, of our true nature.

The true treasure in life is stability within, living an inner condition of love and peace. Material wealth rusts and crumbles and the best use of it is for the benefit of the whole. There are limits to how much material wealth we need for personal use. The material provides the mind with temporary satisfaction. This implies that the thirst for more material goods is not quenched. In the empty space after material satisfaction, we often find disgust and discontent. After many disappointments, failures and problems, we realize that permanent satisfaction can only grow and be manifested inwardly, in harmony with the Self. How we feel inside influences everything we do in a decisive way. Unity with the Self – with that who creates everything, knows everything and can do everything is the gift from Life. To realize this, to experience and perceive this in the consciousness as a true reality is the true life.

We are all children of Life from birth, but it is not sufficient to hear this if we do not experience it as our own reality. Self-realization happens through the personal experience that we are one with life. Fundamental transformation and insight develop from within through meditation, through great interest and love for truth, through experiencing Silence in the consciousness.
