No Doubt
We speak of Holy;
Know without a doubt
There exists nothing Holy
Or unholy
There is only ‘That Which Is’
And your perspective of it.
We speak of right or wrong
And good or bad –
Know without a doubt
There is nothing of the kind
Only ‘That Which Is’
And your position regarding it.
We speak of the ‘Fall From Grace’ –
Know without a doubt
There was no condemnation
Only a warning
That was not heeded.
And that it was by our own hand we
Banished and punished ourselves
Not God
He would do no such thing.
Understand the parable
once and for all:
In The Garden
We took within ourselves the fruit
Of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil
The fruit of opposites
The fruit of preferences and positions
And having internalized this fruit
We have incorporated it into our very selves
And now bear its poison
Of believing in good and evil
Instead of simply That Which Is.
The rainfall that sweeps your home into the river
Is the same rain that allows your neighbor’s harvest to thrive.
Each of us are Adam and Eve
Spit out that poison apple
Abandon opinions and positions
Concepts and theories
And rejoin us
In the Garden.
God is here.
The party never left.
You did.
