Our Purpose of Being

Why are we here? What are relationships all about? Must I stop being 'me' in order to gain your love? Need I to give 'you' up in order to love myself? Can I give and/or receive love? Can I 'fall' in love and yet not be IN love?

We are here for one sublime purpose only – to re-discover the divine and sacred perfection of being that we truly are, always have been, and always will be. This is it. This is what life, birth, death and re-incarnation are all about. So then how does it all fit in?

Quite simple, really. Every relationship I perceive, and every event, thought, word or action I experience through my relationships, opens one more 'door' towards my sacred journey of re-discovering my divinity. Yes, every 'miracle', every 'tragic' event, every 'joyful' achievement, every ‘intense' relationship, every 'selfish' utterance, every 'greedy' action, every 'charitable' deed, every 'thoughtful' gift, every thought, word and action I experience, is an opportunity to remove the veils from my perception so that I may, once more, become aware of the divine that I am, always have been and always will be.

We are not here to be ‘good’ or ‘bad’ or ‘kind’ or ‘cruel’ or ‘selfish’ or ‘generous’ or ‘brave’ or ‘cowardly’ or ‘loving’ or ‘hateful’ to others or to our self. We are not here to "have relationships" with others or ourselves. No, we are here to re-discover the divine and sacred perfection of being that we truly are, always have been, and always will be, whether we have relationships or not. Relationships are merely the 'tools' that our soul has created for our learning on this journey. These are provided for us to understand why we wish to be 'good' to one person and 'bad' to another; why we choose to 'love' someone and to ‘hate’ someone else. We are not here to either 'love' or 'hate'. We are here to appreciate, through our relationships, why we respond/react differently to different people, events and places, so that, in doing so, we may understand that we do not need to be dependent/co-dependent on any person, place or event to experience, either love, joy and peace, or the divine that we already are.

Nothing we think, say or do can take away the divine that we are, absolutely nothing! It is only the awareness of our divinity that can be smothered by our ego belief system of duality and separateness. Just like the proverbial glittering diamond hidden beneath the moss, rock, soot and coal that is waiting to be 'discovered', so is our divinity waiting to 'surface' again. Just like the sonar detector that gives us a reading of the presence of a diamond under the rock, so does our intuition inform us of the presence of the divine within us. If we ignore the sonar reading, we cannot 'mine' the diamond. If we ignore our intuition, we cannot 'mine' our divinity. Like the diamond, our divinity will always 'be' there but we will miss its radiance in our lives if we cannot ‘mine’ it back into our awareness.

If only we could shift our priority from discovering our 'goodness' to re-discovering our divinity ! If our sole purpose in life is entirely enveloped in the need and desire and compulsion to experience love, peace and abundance, then we will remain exiled in the ego world of external seeking, but not finding, because the very essence of love, peace and abundance exists only within the sacred folds of our divinity. It is not in the ego cloak of our humanity. Humanity is the most important tool given lovingly to us by the spirit within us in order to explore our relationships and to re-discover the divine within us. Being a 'good' or 'great' human, however desirable, is not our soul purpose. Being human and challenging ourselves to rediscover the true unlimitedness of our divine self that is the buried treasure awaiting re-discovery, is our soul purpose. (Isn’t it interesting that ‘soul’ and ‘sole’ sound exactly alike!)
