Being a Divine Human on Planet Earth

My long journey to this way of being has taken place over many years. Decades have passed and during those decades, I have been fascinated by what it means to be human. It began with poetry and psychology and I have not stopped since that time, but have steadfastly gone deeper and deeper into the mystery of being human, which means being both infinite and limited, eternal and mortal, divine and despairingly separated from Source.

I remember moving to a new shared residence, living on a communal farm in south-eastern Ontario in the early 1980's. I was looking at what treasures might be found on the communal bookshelves. I remember saying to myself, "I choose to be wise, and so I will read these books that I see here, Sartre and Camus, Rollo May and Aldous Huxley. All my adult life, I have sought such wisdom as I could find in any situation, in every situation. And deeper and deeper I have gone into the mystery of the human condition.

Whether one is a Christian or a Jew, a Muslim, a Bhuddist, a yogi, or an extra-terrestrial, there is a fundamental truth that all of us navigate and do our best to come to terms with. We are not God and yet we continually aspire to God. We are separate from the world and we struggle within the unbearable context of our essential separation.

This struggle is in itself a testament to our divinity. We would not seek if we did not somehow know that which we seek.  Indeed, we are divine. We are God voluntarily separated from God so that we can look out and see God. We are mirror. We are frame. We are the absolutely priceless gift of the experience of being human and in every moment we are giving this gift to God, to Source, to Creator.

And this incredibly courageous and precious gift that we are, in our very being, is so perfect that it is time now for us to rejoin our consciousness of being God also. Our divine and eternal souls are ready to reunite with us. This merging of the human and the divine is happening now. Call it what you will; there are many many names for this.

I will write more soon of the various words which we beloved humans have attached to this reunion with our own divinity. For now, breathe deeply and know the profound perfection of the service that your consciousness and your heart's truth have provided to the ALL.
