You are Truth. You can never not be Truth. You are even aware of your desire to find the Truth. Why? Because you are already there in the position as Truth itself. Truth is not mere words or concepts but timeless and immutable spirit. If you don’t somehow grasp the simplicity of this, then all the different spiritual disciplines, religions and strenuous efforts to attain Truth will replace what I am directly pointing to. The more indirect ways are a kind of second chance for Self-discovery and are also paths or expressions of the same consciousness. In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna speaks the Truth to Arjuna right from the very beginning: Neither I, nor you, nor any of these beings were ever not existing, nor will cease to exist ever. Krishna goes on to say: What exists, can never not exist. What does not exist can never exist. Never was the spirit born and never shall it cease to be. Though the body passes away, the spirit lives forever. But Arjuna did not comprehend this pointing in its essence so the conversation had to carry on. Out of this came the Bhagavad Gita and the whole world rejoices: Thank you Lord Krishna for the gift of Bhagavad Gita! It is of course also an experience in this divine play, to seek and journey towards God, and to be embraced by God, but if the devotee and the Saint were the highest expression or fruit of the search for Truth, where does the Sage come in? If the Saint was the goal, where is the place for the Sage? What is the difference between a Saint and a Sage? You can say a Saint has attained perfect harmony with God. You may call it the most perfect or highest relationship in the human kingdom. One is absorbed, but there remains a duality. What is a Sage then? A Sage is one who does not fight with the Saints standing. The Sage has understood that before there was the concept of God, there is timeless and unborn Awareness. I call Awareness the pure, the Absolute God, and the creator—Ishwara, Allah, Jehovah, Yahweh—its expression as the Supreme Being. Some beings say there is no God, but they feel that they themselves exist. To feel that there is no God while you haven’t resolved your own identity as pure Awareness is the most arrogant, because God is ones own soul and source. God is pure intelligence, pure knowing, pure existence, presence and love. ~ Mooji January 2014
