A World of Peace
The world has hassle. Heaven has none. And yet, a time will come, when you can have hassle and sustain peace. Agitation and stillness can co-exist. They co-exist now. You may not significantly be aware of this because you are so leaned to the world that all you hear is the noise and your trembling.
What is world peace, beloveds, but enough seemingly individual people knowing their stillness even while commotion is going on?
The thing is that you don’t always want to sit still, isn’t that so? The stillness of peace always reigns. There is no escaping it, and yet you escape it with a preponderance of the world. If you had a fortune in the bank and forgot about it, how wealthy are you?
Even if you are the healthiest person in the world but have been swayed by advertising and sentiments of the world and you are convinced you are coming down with something, how healthy are you?
Even if you are physically beautiful in terms of the world, and you think you should be thinner or plumper, or taller or shorter, how beautiful are you? You could be thinking you are beautiful, and you will walk and talk as one who is beautiful. In any case, you are the one who has to know how beautiful you are.
Who else is it who has to know that you are healthy, wealthy, and beautiful but you. Yet you are a tough customer.
As for wise, you have been wise, and yet you have compensated for your wisdom with folly. In any case, you are getting wiser. And in My terms, you are getting healthier and wealthier and more beautiful every day as well. I say in My terms. In My everyday experience, you cannot be more beautiful, nor can you be healthier or wealthier. I have given you perfect health, wealth, and beauty. What you are and always were is what I see.
I even see the underlying calmness of you, the calmness you have kept hidden from yourself. Perhaps you have even run away from calmness through one activity or another. Sometimes calmness is the last thing you want. Agitation carries more pizzazz with it. Let’s face it, you have often been in the mood for pizzazz and seldom in the mood for calmness. You may prefer calamity to calmness – until calamity, what you call calamity, comes to sit beside you, that is.
Let the agitation, both pleasant and unpleasant, go on while you keep stillness close to you. Let a river rage and overflow its banks, and yet it still has its banks. It’s just that it has overflowed them. The river will noticeably settle down. The calmness waits for it. Just so, ever-patient calmness waits for you to notice it and offer it a good seat next to you.
How many times in life have you lost an important object, your keys, your cell phone, someone’s phone number, and it is not really lost at all. It is right where you left it. And you do find it after all. So is it with the calmness I have poured down upon you.
I left nothing out when I made you. You are replete with the stillness within. Even if you have no limbs, you are complete. You have consciousness, and you have the means of knowing Our closeness. Your knowing is everything, beloveds. Your knowing your completeness rather than lack is everything. I am your Completeness. I am your Totality. I am your Knowingness. I am all you need to know, for I AM All That Is, and so are you.
If you want an apricot, and you have an apricot kernel, you have an apricot. Know you have it. It will manifest. Remind yourself that in the realm of which I speak, there is no time to wait for. There is no delay. There is now, forever now, and in peace in forever now, We abide.
