| Reality Is Changeless |
by Helen Gordon
What makes for life's chaos
is the interpretations of reality learned through social, cultural or religious
sources. It is frightening to go against the reality you have learned. Since
there are often differences in the new interpretation, you fear it. It is
the differences you fear yet desire.
The power of reality is
what you seek yet, you frantically attempt to obliterate it with created
situations, hanging on to those you value and approve. How absurd to think
the value you assign will make them valuable or your approval will ever make
them real.
Let go of these situations
regardless of their seeming worth for they are meaningless. It is impossible
to give meaning to meaningless. These situations are used to validate your
denial as meaningful. Denying reality does not diminish its power or existence.
Reality does not depend on you to be. It just is.
Once you relinquish your
false reality, you dread accepting full responsibility of your life. No longer
will there be anyone or anything you can assign blame. This you would rather
forget.
Forgetfulness is often
used to create your reality. Such selective memory does not destroy reality,
it merely suppresses it. Fantasy created through forgetfulness is then used
as justification to avoid Truth. Forgetting is a false escape from the thing
you think is fearful while it is the created fantasy you should fear.
You are freed from your
created fears through reality. Once you fully embrace reality you go beyond
the uncertain changes of perception to changeless reality where freedom
abides.
Reality may seem to change
through fantasy, but it really only changes in your mind. Reality cannot
be created or changed. Look at the reality you have created for yourself.
Is it ideal for a child of God?
