today's post on Paulo Coelho's blog paulocoelhoblog.com/purification-by-pain
Being the rebel-spirit and teacher he is, he probably wrote this to evoke within us a feeling that somehow reminds us that what is written here simply cannot be the way to truth. As it sparks within us the Light of Remembrance that beyond any need to proof, explain, or justify, awakens a Truth that simply IS.
Being "confronted" with statements that go against everything you know with all your heart, is an opportunity for us to listen to our strong inner feelings that stem from the deep place within us where Truth resides. To listen to and honor these feelings that stem from the place where the Voice of Truth can be heard. It is in this place of inner peace, of deep-seated Happiness and JOY that you find all the answers to your questions, and it is this place within you, that guides you towards the Happiness that is yours, the Happiness that is your birthright, your Divine inheritance; as you awaken to Love and open up to receive God's gift of Love...

The truth is simple: God's will for us is Happiness. And by being Happy we join our will with God's, which in truth is ONE. To believe that inflicting pain is a way to find the Truth, is to believe that God is something He is not. God is Love, and we are created in His image and likeness. What we believe ourselves to be (to be sinful, unworthy and unlovable) cannot UNDO what God created for eternity; for illusions cannot replace the Truth. We are -still- as God created us. When we close our eyes for the Truth we "turn away from the Light" and with that we experience a reality of darkness. This is the dark dream of fear the mind dreams when it believes (falsely believes) it is separate from Love. Pain, suffering, misery and fear are all part of this dark dream and the ONLY way to "undo" all this.... is to WAKE UP.
To wake up from this dark dream of fear and REMEMBER THE TRUTH.
To turn one's back on something is to deny it; to reject, to abandon, to forsake it.
To believe in pain as a price for our sins is to deny the Truth that God is Love, God is Light, God is Life. Which is the "cause" of all suffering and pain in the first place as the moment we turned our back on Love we entered the dream of hell.
Truth is simple: God is Love. And God's will for us is Happiness.
Truth is simple: Turn your face to the sun and the shadows fall behind you.
Truth is simple: Wake up and be free.
Free from the dream of fear,
Free from all pain and suffering,
Free to receive God's gift of Love,
and be happy...
Free to be...
Love.
Again... Truth is simple: God can only be remembered in the Light...
Turn your face to the Light,
as you open your eyes...
and gently behold Love
as it washes away all you thought was real...
as it wipes away your tears,
and let them be replaced by tears of JOY,
because the Son,
has come Home....
at last...
