Divine Truth

There is little that is known. There is much that is speculated. There is much to be learned. There is much to be revealed. I speak here about the eternal question. What is the meaning of life? Why does man make this journey? Why does earthly existence find itself marked and to some marred by inequities beyond measure?

For eons man has struggled to answer these questions. Great teachers have sought to provide answers. Some have come close to perfection in their teaching. Some have been faithfully followed. Others have seen their teaching lost and distorted by human interpretation. No single teacher has succeeded in conveying to mankind the perfection of the divine plan. No group of followers has succeeded in accepting the purity of each teacher's original enlightenment. In all cases, man has lost the purity of truth in the struggle for power that ensued in each and every religious doctrinal belief.

It is pity indeed that this should have occurred, but once again we are forced to find understanding in the free will of man to do as he chooses at each step in human life. Power is a powerful aphrodisiac, and all too often over the centuries man has found himself seeking to control, to enjoy the power that comes with this control over his fellow man, and to lose, either partially or completely, awareness of his true perfect goal in life, that of knowing love in all its wonder, love given and received, love that defies condition.

Many souls, with all good intent, are seduced by those who proclaim themselves spokesmen for God, those who insist on absolute fidelity to all they proclaim. Often they rule in fear. At times they promise all that man craves in understanding the mystery of life and death. Most often they seek absolute security in knowing that they share absolute and immutable truth. Often they are tempted to regard all who disagree as spiritually unaware or even corrupt in their differing beliefs.

Let man know now that the divine truth is infinitely simple. There is only one mandate. That single mandate is to follow the path of love during his human voyage, to know absolutely the brotherhood of man, and to meet his brother's needs in all ways. There should be no strangers to the soul in journey. There should be no exception to his love. There should be infinite happiness in this love that dictates his every thought, word, and deed.

Once man accepts this simple truth, life becomes a glorious road to travel, a road that leads to human happiness, regardless of pitfalls and trials, and a road to the oneness that is the eternal goal. Perfection awaits the human traveler. He has only to learn the single and ultimate lesson of love.
