Where the Truth is concerned an individual is unimportant as their purpose is to convey.

Note: For example, it is said that when the Buddha was nearing the time of his death his disciples pleaded with him to stay longer but his response was, “You do not need me.”

From the dawn of time we have been obsessed with improving all aspects of nature - a state that is the epitome of perfection. This obsession is neither humble nor achievable.

We have been given free will and the creative ability of the Great Spirit.

We create our future, so when we face that future there is no purpose in pleading for the Great Spirit’s help for “As you sow, so you shall reap!” applies.

However, the field is ploughed and fertile so sow!

One’s life is the consequence of a succession of choices; the major, minor, conscious and unconscious choices. These consequences do not manifest in a single lifetime so, if one’s life is pleasant and trouble free it is very likely that the opposite is still to be experienced to bring experience as a whole into a state of balance. Be not fooled!

Where the biblical ‘Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.’ is concerned it is wise to be aware, and remember, that “being without sin” applies to our previous lives as well as the present one. Thus, the statement takes on a different dimension.

What one can lose is illusion, is perception, is impermanent.

One can never lose what is.

All things, and all things acted out therein or therewith, are a creation of the individual Spirit, and therefore the collective Spirit, and are an illusion. It is this illusion that is perceived as reality yet it is no more real than the reality of a dream.

However, it is within this perception that we ment and act on the path to the final realisation.

Note 1. An ancient quote, predating Shakespeare: the world is a "wide and universal theater,"

Note 2. Extract from The Milk Is White:

When we leave our body our life here becomes the 'dream' and where we then are becomes the reality. When we reach full enlightenment, Christhood or full realisation, call it what we will, that is the only reality, and there is no dream of any sort.

From our physical mindset, therefore, we create both the dream 'reality' and the virtual 'reality' with the latter more approximating the reality of the former when technology is refined. In the manner in which the dream and the technologically created 'reality' are similar but not the same so is the similarity between "life in the physical" and our existence when not in the physical.
