Guest guest Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 CHAPTER 60 If you think you know You really do not, My child For thoughts will never, ever, Sustain within them the true knowledge. Thoughts are the vision of fear Knowledge, O child, is the simple awareness The spontaneous recognition to every truth! If you think you believe You truly do not, My child For thoughts will never, ever, Awaken within the light of faith Thoughts are only suspicious Faith, O child, is the certainty and loyalty to the truth, always! If you think you love You really do not, My child For thoughts will desire its own gain and Hence, will never, ever, Be able to give, to yield, to compromise, to sacrifice. Thoughts sustain upon inhaling another's wealth Love is the self provider that sustains upon its own sacrifice, alone! If you think you know God You surely do not, My child For thoughts, O love, are blinded To the vision of the divine. One will know God only by the heart In thinking, Love vanishes, O child In thinking, the Lord, Himself, appears as the blur In thinking, truth appears false In thinking, the true self appears imaginary In thinking, the right becomes unreachable In thinking, the wrong becomes justifiable. Hence, in thinking, O love Lies the weakness in believing the untrue Thoughts only appear strong They truly are only of a weak nature For they weaken the one that receives them. Hence, let thoughts come But be not led by them Le them tease But be not instigated by them Let them threaten But be not fearful of them Let them come Allow them to serve no purpose A thought that is restrained From awakening fear within you Will wither, will eventually, die, I promise! When you do not think, O child You know! Knowing the Divine is a silent joy! For, in knowing, one will truly know His self - his purpose - his mission - Knowing that is only the bliss of eternal peace! The moment you respond with the words, "I know", remember and realize that you simply fear the true knowing. The words are merely the weapon that pride uses to stop the truth from penetrating, any further. The mind fears that true knowledge may direct you to the real fact, and hence, it instigates the false pride within the imperfect man to react with insensitivity and complete brashness. True knowledge, My child, is not threatened, ever, and hence it reacts with calmness and patience. The simple guilt of not being able to apply the truth lets one behave in a pompous manner. Be open minded, at all times. A true seeker of knowledge learns by every observation and every experience. Anyone that reflects the purity of the Divine, spontaneously becomes his teacher and leader. To be a keen learner, you must give up all pride. Learning that reflects comparison is simply pitiful. Until the duality exists - until you are the devotee and He is the God, then, learning, My child, cannot end, for He will never stop teaching the one that truly loves Him. When one loses all identity between the love, the lover and the loved One, then that is the moment when the self becomes the knowledge of the Divine Energy. That knowledge is the reality - is the truth - is all the wealth of the Lord's Kingdom!
