Stop Reaching For Enlightenment

Nature’s Lesson On Enlightened Living

“Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not…” These are the words of Christ Jesus from his legendary Sermon on the Mount. What could the disciples possibly learn from gazing at lilies? A simple lesson in living: Life should be effortless. I think you sense this. And I think you have already surmised that the key to effortless living is a conscious awareness that God Is All of All — as All.

No Toiling Necessary

Reader, I believe that the conscious awareness of God As All ranks high on your priority list. You are sincere about it, but do consider the lilies: they neither toil nor spin. Your conscious awareness of God should be effortless! Toiling and spinning for spiritual enlightenment is no more commendable than toiling and spinning for daily supply. And here’s why.

You Are The Light Of The World

You are already a completely illumined being. You already know all the Truth you ever will know. Your Consciousness (God being Conscious) is vibrantly aglow with the Light of Truth — as the Light of Truth. Prayer is not a struggle for more Light. In the clearest way I can express it, prayer is the Self gazing at Itself.

In my past life (before the ministry), I used to hang out with a woman who was double-head-turning beautiful. And she knew it. Every time she passed her reflection she side-glanced and gave herself an approving smile. She wasn’t trying to become more beautiful. She was simply — perhaps egotistically — admiring and acknowledging her beauty.

Sunrise Praying

When you pray a simple prayer like, “God, reveal Thyself,” that prayer is a mirror giving you an opportunity, through Silence, to acknowledge and behold the Light that you are. Yes, there are times that you make new discoveries in prayer. But they are discoveries and not creations. Those marvels have always been there.

Beloved, don’t struggle for enlightenment as if you must get it from some outside or separate source. Let prayer be an effortless letting rather than an effortful getting. It does no more good to reach within than to reach without. Stop reaching. Be still, and let Revelation be as easy and quiet as the rising sun. The Light you seem to seek is the LIGHT YOU ARE.

Did You Contemplate Your Perfection Today?

For the month of July I am taking a break. Instead of writing new articles, I am posting some more of my favorite passages from other Absolute authors. This week’s post is from Doris Henty’s Addresses and Other Writings..

The command “Be ye therefore perfect” is already fulfilled effortlessly. Perfection is inevitable. Restriction, friction, erroneous suggestion, earth-bound sense, mortal belief — the belief that there is a belief —are unknown to the kingdom of holiness within.

Discord never entered your Mind. Your peaceful well-being remains forever undisturbed. No suggestion of evil was ever heard, seen or felt in this consciousness of holiness which you are. Yours is the “boundless thought that walks enraptured,” free from impediment, obstruction or limitation, enjoying the natural perfection of its own being.

Let prayer be the joyous recognition and acknowledgment of that which already exists, the glories of Life: the joyous, restful experience of health and harmony already and permanently established as one’s own being. The Sabbath means that the whole of infinity is “the secret place of the most High.” Think of the peace and security of such being, your being, unassailed because there is nothing but Itself.

Help! Truth Is Not Working In My Life

For the month of July I am taking a break. Instead of writing new articles, I am posting some more of my favorite passages from other Absolute authors. This week’s post is once again from Vivian May Williams’ There Is Nothing But God..

I have studied and declared the truth for many years, yet I do not get results. How do you account for this?

Declaring the truth with the expectation of getting results is not believing in completeness. When you declare the truth because it is true, your results will follow as naturally as night follows day. Since sight is spiritual you cannot see anything in what is termed the “material world” until you see (spiritually perceive) it in heaven, for your spiritual vision is understanding. In other words, when you understand (see spiritually), heaven and earth become united in consciousness and function as one world.

Having A Great Time In Heaven — Now

For the month of July I am taking a break. Instead of writing new articles, I am posting some more of my favorite passages from other Absolute authors. This week’s post is from Vivian May Williams’ There Is Nothing But God.

How can I truthfully declare that I am well when I feel ill? Declare abundance when I apparently have no money? Declare happiness when I am miserable?

Truth is always declaring Itself. Truth (God) is the only speaker. When you declare I am healthy;” “I am wealthy;” “I am happy;” you are functioning in divine Intelligence. The “illusory sense” which reports disease, poverty and misery is ignorant of its false conceptions.

No matter what the false report may appear to be, you are eternally having a joyous and prosperous time in heaven. This is the truth that Jesus said would set you free.

Male, Female or God?

For the month of July I am taking a break. Instead of writing new articles, I am posting some more of my favorite passages from other Absolute authors. This week’s post is from Alfred Aiken’s The Unchallenged Self.

Have you ever stopped to consider how many difficulties arise in one’s average experience merely because of gender? Gender, as related to sex, duality, began in time alone. You had naught to do with being male or female, man or woman, nor has God! How then did gender come about?

Metaphysics assumes gender to be a quality of Mind, but Truth knows no gender. Medicine would have gender result from the arrangement of specific material cells. Philosophy accepts it as racial requirement. Theology claims it is God’s plan for human perpetuity.

But what does the Alone-Self say concerning gender. Nothing! God is whole, entire, the infinite invisible individual ONE OF ALL IMMENSITY.

Truth is neither male nor female. The dual appearance of gender, which is part and parcel of humanity’s method of reproducing its kind,is not a provision arranged by God. The INFINITE ONE who is ALL OF ALL, the ALONE ENTIRETY OF THE UNIVERSE, ALL-INCLUSIVE BEING, could not need or command a finite human to “multiply” and replenish the earth.” God is all of ALL—all there is, is God. God is all of Me, the I THAT I am, My ENTIRETY, SUBSTANCE, LIFE, MIND, IDENTITY, EXISTENCE. I AM not man, not mortal, not human, not a finite animal.

Evidence, Omnipresence

The Evidence Of Truth Is Right Where It Should Be

evidencetape

The Neglected Omni

Of all the omnis, you’ve probably read, said, and heard these two the most: omnipresence and omnipotence. One woman looked at me with pleading eyes and said, “Allen, you’ve got to come up with a new way of getting these ideas across. I can’t listen to one more omni-anything.” It’s a fact that when spiritual writers start writing about God, we bang away at these two omnis. So let’s move on to the most ignored, and perhaps the most important of all the omnis: OMNIEVIDENCE.

This word excites me! Say it to yourself a few times. By the end of this article, just a mental glance at the word Omnievidence will be more satisfying than a slice of mile-high apple pie topped with honey-bourbon caramel swirls.

Omnievidence Breakdown

Years ago, I noticed something interesting in a book by Emma Curtis Hopkins. (You have no idea how many letters I have in a box from people trying to convince me that I am the reincarnation of E.C. Hopkins.) In this book, Ms. Hopkins etymologically deconstructs the word omnipresence. To illustrate the breakdown, I am going to use the word Omnievidence.
Om = all
Ni (nil) = nothing
Evidence = evidence

Look at “Ni.” It sits securely and comfortably—almost smugly—between Om and Evidence. Did you figure out the breakdown? Here it is: THERE IS NOTHING (NO THING) BETWEEN THE ALLNESS AND THE EVIDENCE OF GOD’S PRESENCE.

God’s Evidence Is The Only Evidence

Reader. Haven’t you heard someone say, “Yes, I know all of that, but I just don’t see the evidence of it?” Don’t believe it! There is no person, place, condition or thing between God’s allness and God’s evidence.

Between God’s allness and God’s evidence there is no dream, no dreamer, no appearance, and no human struggling to perceive this Truth. All that is evident is the allness of God. Take a moment and say to yourself, “There is nothing between me (God-I AM) and God’s Evidence.” Thus:

There is only One Presence.
There is only One Power.
There is only One Evidence.

Abundance

Allen White Sounds Of The Trumpet

This excerpt is from Marie Watts’book You Are The Splendor. The Chapter is The Perfect Answer.

It may be that an appearance of lack seems to be present. This is not evil. Rather, it should be considered as merely the signal signifying the presence of infinite, omnipresent Supply. You will not approach this aspect of existence from the standpoint of the specific. Instead, you will immediately contemplate the universal fact which is omnipresent Supply.

Actually, incompleteness, or lack, would seem to prevail in any illusion of trouble, disorder, or inharmony. It might appear as a lack of heath, a lack of strength, a lack of joy or peace, or a lack of supply in the aspect called money. In any event, realization of the presence of that which appears to be absent is necessary if you are to experience the evidence of complete supply. Thus it is apparent why the word “completeness” is of such vital importance.

Completeness is a universal fact. Thus Supply is a universal fact. It is present everywhere, and it is present eternally. There are no vacuums in this universal fact, and there is no interruption of its Presence. It is indivisible. It is that Principle which is omnipresent and inseparable from the specific Identity, which is God identified as you. It is within your Consciousness because it is constituted of your Consciousness. If you will realize that Supply—in any aspect—is as omnipresent as is Love, you will perceive the true nature of Supply. If you will “keep your mind stayed” on the presence of Supply—God—you will surely be aware of the evidence of this Presence right here and now.

Live Like Truth Is Already True (Part 2)

God Is All
“Live like Truth already is.” That’s exactly how the words came. Inquiring minds are asking, “But how?”

When you live like Truth already is, you don’t perform one single action in hope that it will improve your life. Why? Life is God and therefore is already perfect. Better than that: Life is Perfection itself. This means You! Living like Truth already is means that every move you make is to explore and enjoy the Perfection that is your life.

Your Financial Affairs

Take a look at your financial affairs. Living like Truth already is, what do you have to do to prosper yourself? Nothing! All that the Father has is yours – NOW. Isn’t God the source and substance of your prosperity? Aren’t you and God one? What, then, is necessary to prosper yourself? Nothing! You are already prospered beyond belief. You ARE prosperity.

Stop And Ask

The Absolutely Yours blog is meant to be lived. So let’s live this post. It’s simpler than you think.

First, reader, answer these questions:

  • Do you believe that God (or whatever term you use) is the only Presence and Power?
  • Do you believe that the nature of God is Perfection?

This is enough to work with. Start your day with a contemplation of the Isness of Truth. Follow that with a period of silent “listening”. This will reveal more clearly the Isness of Perfection, Love, Peace and Abundance. Do not skip this step.

Throughout the day you will do many things. Occasionally (trust me, you will know when) ask yourself, “Why am I doing this? Is it to change an appearance?” If the answer is “yes,” you can put the brakes on and confidently say to yourself, “Wait a minute. I don’t need to do this. Perfect Life, Activity and Experience are already the All.”

Joy Stepping

Your next step will be a joy step. You will move with a smile in your heart, joyfully basking in the awareness of Perfection’s ever-present Isness. Don’t be surprised to discover that the thing you thought you needed to do has already been done.

This is living like Truth already is. This is truly living.

Live Like Truth Is Already True (Part 1)

dove in sky
One night in contemplation, these words flashed in my consciousness: LIVE LIKE TRUTH ALREADY IS. Think about it. You and I will never be more of the Christ (or God Presence) than we already are right now. We will never be any more enlightened than we are right now. Things will not get any better than they are right now. GOD IS ALL, NOW.

If you are not careful, you will find yourself contemplating and praying with the idea that, “If I keep this up, by next year, I will be so much more enlightened and things will be so much better than they are right now.” It’s a lie. When you contemplate Truth, it is not to make spiritual progress or any other kind of progress. God does not progress toward Itself. Are you another?

Contemplation is the natural act of Consciousness considering Itself. Yes, it’s true, we start out with words (a dualistic framework), but at some point the words are not necessary.

Let’s go back to those words LIVE LIKE TRUTH IS ALREADY TRUE. Beloved, you are already in the kingdom of heaven, as the kingdom of heaven. Right in your bedroom, it is heaven.

Are you acknowledging this fact?
Have you considered what it means?

Right in your bedroom changeless Perfection is already the only Evidence. Birthless, deathless, timeless, ageless Life is right there as the only Life and is the totality of that room. Before you roll out of bed, more Love than the human heart can stand is there. If you were human, it would be problematic.

Face the fact, LIFE (the entirety of it) being God, is not going to get any better. Understanding this, no improvement is desired or required.
