Sacrifice

In looking the word sacrifice, out of curiosity I looked up the definition in a dictionary and found:

The act of making an offering to a deity, in worship or atonement.

And with that I ask of you to answer, who am I sacrificing for? And Why? Is it to one who we placed above our own self in order to find a path of penance? Is it a form of self love that takes us away from going within, stopping the inward process of sacrificing the parts of us that no longer are needed and have become a burden upon the self? If it is not a true way to love oneself then it is in truth for another. And within the process of the sacrifice, for which no joy can be found, is the other being denied their god given right to experiences.

Love: This is one area that continues to change for me. I feel that I can finally understand the underlying principle of what love is. To Learn of Ones Very Existence or Essence. A friend had shared of remembering the feeling of being birthed from the central sun, the beginning of time for all of us. I shared with her that the feeling she felt, the power behind the miraculous birthing process was defined as Love in Action. The entire universe is defined and propelled by the energy called love. Love is perpetual motion. Just as the universe has no way of ending, but is a continuum of growth so it is a true representative of the principles and virtues of love itself. When we feel love everything is in motion and appears never-ending, just a continuum. Like the universe in which we live.

When the elements of love are removed, or changed the forward motion appears to stop and even seem to move backwards. When we feel love within, our whole being becomes alive.

When we allow the lack of self love to perpetuate within, all appears to stop. Love in its true form is God in action. The use of the energy of love has to ability to heal on all levels. What the Christ's energy was supposed to represent was what man can expect when the energy of love is put into play. The Earth, Man, the Universe and beyond are all comprised of the elements within the energy we call LOVE. Many prophets and spiritual leaders have misused this energy for their own self gain.

The truth of the misuse was not always recognized until later. When we feel the need to go outside of ourselves, to find love, we become subject to the definition of others. At some point in time, and for most of us the time is here and now to begin the process of reclaiming our soul and finding love within. This does not mean we cannot experience the sharing of love from one another, it is the difference between bringing two fractions together in order to try and find wholeness and two complete circles coming together to in order to experience oneness.

Integrity of Love

How do we know true love when it is presented? The old adage "time will tell" prevails. To use the energy of love properly one must learn integrity. Integrity is defined as honesty, sincerity, uprightness: a person of integrity is respected, wholeness, completeness and entirety. Perfect condition and soundness.

When one is out of integrity and misuses the divine energy called love, the person needs to maintain it in order to keep it alive.

Real love is perpetual motion. It is the way a person attempts to maintain the energy that needs the freewill of others to keep it going. Unlike the divine love. It is our energy that maintains the falsehood. Usually we feel we are performing in the name of God and saving the world. We rejoice in finding our place within society and wonder why everyone does not feel the same way. But there are warning signs that foretell if the integrity of love is not present.

Who's gaining, do we need to be recharged every so often to maintain the high that is felt, are we becoming fearful of making mistakes and falling from grace, are the conditions of manifestation so high that no one appears to be good enough but some seem close. Most important do you feel as free outside the realm of the group as you do within? From my experiences this is a difficult place for us to learn of our own truths. I needed to lose myself, without even knowing my truth only to face the passage way home.

So for me to go outside of myself, the giving up of myself, for the empowerment of another, was what I had chosen in order to find wholeness.

In the end what I needed the most I am finding within. We are not alone in our quests for truth and freedom. All of mankind is on the same path, just different roads.
