All that really matters is that we have our own authentic, direct, immediate and intimate experience of God.
It’s not difficult, because God doesn’t withhold Himself.
But you have to look for God where he can actually be found.
Which is within.
Jesus says in Luke 17:21 – “Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.”
The kingdom of God that’s within you is the truth about what you actually are.
What it really is that you truly are, is what God is that can actually be experienced.
So with deliberate intention look directly within.
Experience what is actually there.
Taste what you actually are.
Meet what God actually is.
See for yourself where God truly is found.
You don’t need teachers’ descriptions.
Do you need to have the flavor of watermelon described in order to be able to taste it?
Neither do you need to have your oneness with God described in order for you to be able to experience it.
We’ve been conned to believe we only can taste what we’re taught.
But that’s not true.
The only way to experience what’s real, is to taste it all by yourself on your own.
There’s no other way it can happen, and no other way that it will.
The reason you can directly experience what God truly is, is because God truly is within you.
He couldn’t be more immediate, intimate, available or closer.
Never mind what you’ve been taught about God.
Never mind what you’ve been taught about yourself.
Watermelon descriptions are useless.
What you want to do is intimately meet what you actually are.
There’s no other way to experience what God actually is.
