Hello my friends, fellow brothers and sisters of humanity. I come to you today , as the complete embodiment of love, defined. Not defined as some object that can be bought and sold, or worked hard in academia to achieve. Instead, I am the embodiment of love, in the fact that I can stand before you, today, as your brother, truly unafraid of death. Some of you don't believe me. some of you may be as brave as to proclaim this same thing for yourself. the few, brave and courageous among us. I am happy, that you have found your own path to god. But alas, i hold one anxiety for the notion that every single one of you standing before me, does not believe that God, and your inherent and inborn ability to know, are one and the same. In other words, who among you truly believes that god is inside you? If there are some who raise their hands, i ask you to come up now and stand up to death, with
me.
me.
If there are none so brave and bold as to get up in front of everybody and proclaim this ability. I ask why? I ask.. What is your notion of god? Is he a man on a cloud up in heaven? or does it require more understanding than that? Our failure to ask this question to ourselves on a regular basis, draws us away from love, and into the mode of anxiety, stress, and fear. Fear of Death. Fear of insignificance. Stress from not knowing how your going to feed your kids, or pay the mortgage this month. You come to church out of some obligation. But I am here before you to say, that this is not enough. God does not take attendance at church. He listens to the spirit within you. Because HE IS, within you. You have a piece of god inside of you. Have we've all become so distracted with sports teams, celebrity gossip, and cooking shows that we've forgotten who we are? WE ARE NOT INSIGNIFICANT. WE ARE NOT MEANINGLESS. WE ARE GODS CHILDREN. AND WE HAVE HIM IN US. False idols really do draw your worship from the lord. Idolatry has turned America and the western world into a leper colony of godless male domination. Now I digress.
I KNOW YOU ARE PUZZLED.
I KNOW YOU ARE CONFUSED.
But it is now that I wish to clarify by once again giving you the definition of the word idolatry.
IDOLATRY. NOUN. extreme admiration, love, or reverence for something or someone .
How many of you, love something? how many of you show reverence towards your favorite television shows? and watch them , "like every week, religiously" . How many of you love your new car? Or your big fancy 42 inch plasma flat screen? I might be blowing it out of proportion slightly to say that you hold real love for these objects. But if someone took them away, and you could not buy a new one. What would you do?
American Idol
Mickey Mouse
McDonald's
The easy choice
The only thing to do on a Friday night.
Why have we allowed our free will and our empowering sense of self to be bought and sold for some false paradise of the American dream. Many of us now have seen the American Dream for what is truly is. A rat race of a nightmare in which we are endlessly in debt and running a plastic obstacle course of flashing lights and drugs habits. Coffee, sugar, red meat, caffeine, television. Where have the vegetables gone? Where has good taste, gone?
Why have we allowed ourselves to become subverted on every level of our unconsciousness?
Now I don't speak to all of you. I Know there are many among you who live in the moment and have no fear. But for others out there, know in your heart, that I am not preaching false ideas. I am teaching you the truth that you already knew.
What must we do? How do we put down the irrelevant nonsense junk entertainment, and pick up a skill or a hobby, once again? How do we start loving again, and stop feeling dead inside? How do we break the bad habits that culture has ingrained in us since birth? These are all great questions. But i do not claim to be god. I do not claim to have all the answers. I do not wish to start a cult or pretend like I am better than any of you. I was lost, but now I am found. And by the grace of god, I am telling you from that concern. From love. From understanding.
What i do know, is one thing for sure. The way we break the spell. The way we throw down the fiery sword of consumerism, material desire and fill the void in our hearts with truth and love. Is first, we turn off our television, and ask a question. It can be any question. Whens Dinner? Whats my wily son up to? Who forgot to refill the toilet paper roll? ANYTHING.
---
The point i am making and what I want you to remember most of all, is that a question, is the only REAL THING WE KNOW. A QUESTION can evoke every single emotion across all spectrum's of race color sex and creed. Can TV do that? Maybe a few. BUT IT IS THE QUESTION, in which gave us technology. THE QUESTION In which gave us better family relationships and communication skills. It is the QUESTION, that keeps governments in check, and criminals at bay. THE QUESTION. ANY QUESTION. JUST MAKE SURE YOU ASK YOURSELF ONE TODAY. GO FORTH WITH LOVE. NEVER STOP LEARNING. DON'T GIVE IN TO FEAR AND NEGATIVITY. YOU ARE GOD. GOD IS YOU. YOU ARE YOURSELF. AND NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS ON THE OTHER SIDE. one thing is for sure.
There wont be any room for stress, Disney world, or the Banking system. Thank you for your time and commitment to listen.
