I'll get to why this came to me in a moment... but, I just asked a rhetorical of Kitty (at 5:15 am, shaking head!), "What if we create God in our own image, not the other way around?"
Seriously! This would explain so much... it would explain why folks like the Jorgé imagine a God who is patriarchal and authoritarian and a "white-bearded, wise, all-knowing old man" because that is a reflection of how he sees life, how he sees himself growing, it utilizes the filters through which he factors lifing ...
I see God as an energy source flowing through us all, a sort of group consciousness... a kind of "all of us came together to create a whole" and have grown from there... if you couple that with my last blog, that would explain the expanding as well... this energy thrives and grows on connection, therefore it would be growing as the population grows, as we build our energy sources... a symbiotic procreation...
This could also explain why I have a sense that all religions are a piece of the God puzzle... that each of us has a different way of filtering and factoring life and that it takes the diversity to see the whole picture of the Universe... that no one brain can possibly grasp it's entirety...
WOW!
Okay, now to explain the pathway to this assumptive (which I state here and now, that I may find fault with, or otherwise prove/disprove at a future time, lol... this is the fun stuff! for sure!!)
I did some energy work this week for the dear friend of a friend. My friend's friend had attempted suicide and was holding on by a thread. I asked my friend for her friend's name and for an animal with whom she finds connection. My friend did me one better not only by answering my questions but also sending along a photo of her friend.
That night, I created an amulet for her friend (something I use as the stand in/connector for the huming that I'm working with) and began my work. The first night, I could feel an intensely active connection as I communed back and forth with her... I could feel her exhaustion, but also her willingness to listen and share energies... It felt very strong, this connection.
The second night (I do this work when I'm in bed and dozing/in and out of lucidity), I felt the same strength of connection but a heightened sense of agitation... it built to something akin to chaos... I felt like she was still with me, sharing energy, and understanding what I was telling her but that she was losing the grounding... something wasn't "right". I told her that I needed to take a break, that she was deeply loved and that I'd be back.
I then set her amulet aside and left the room for about 45 minutes. When I came back and reconnected, there was a very deep sense of calm in her. The change in energy flowing between us was marked. In fact, the sense of calm was so deep and she felt so at peace that I went from a state of being wide awake to one of sleep in well less than five minutes—something that is rare for me, even when I haven't slept well for a couple of nights.
When I took my shower, I felt a theme pop strongly into my head... I don't know if it's connected to this woman's pain, but I would guess it might be at least part of it... It felt like she was there with me, talking in my head. I've felt this before, particularly when my mother-in-law was passing... she came to me when I was doing the dishes... I had no question that she was there with me. It was at that time that I assured her that I would "take care" of her husband and her son, and that she could go in peace.
Last night when I went to re-open the connection with my friend's friend, there was nothing. Like a dead phone line... zip, nada...
I am going to send my friend an email today asking if her friend passed at or around 3:45 Monday morning, our time. It would certainly explain the shift in energy I felt.
So, back to my rhetorical... what if we create God in our own image so that we can get the teensiest grasp of who/what that picture is? What if we image something that makes sense to us in our own language? What if we're all sensing the same thing, but we explain/describe in a different way because of how our brains work? What if we're simply using our own dictionaries to define, cuz that's what we have to work with? And does this explain why many of us get a better/stronger sense as we age, because we've continued to amass data that helps us to more clearly define?
Which then begs the question: How do you define God? And what does that reflect about who you are in your core being?
Yeah, who could go back to sleep after this! LOL! Good, groovy two-shoes morning, everyone! This is indeed the fun stuff!!!
With a vital noting: I mean in no way to diminish the passing of this lovely woman (if she has indeed passed, I may be totally misreading the lack of connection last night)... she was obviously in deep pain when she made her last choices for this lifetime... but, I feel like she made the ones she needed to make... I also know that she knew she was very loved and very deeply cared about... and, if I'm interpreting my communications with her correctly, she was deeply at peace when she left us... I honor both who she was, who she is becoming and her right to choose her own pathway as she journeys.
