Hi Gloria,
Could you please re-phrase this sentence for me: You think you are scrapings and scraps of yourself when you are Self Entire.
You forget, and know not what you forget. You forget that you have forgotten. You are My only begotten son. You think you are scrapings and scraps of yourself when you are Self Entire.

What a great Heavenletter
What a great Heavenletter you found, Oldooz. I had forgotten all about this Heavenletter. This whole Heavenletter is full of metaphors, and how I love them! On the Hammock of the Moon -- now, that is a metaphor I could ask you to explain to me!!!
As human beings, we have forgotten our Divinity. We tend to think we're really not much.
God said:
I shall lie in the hammock of the moon while you light up the stars like candles and hold them up so that all may see. I gaze at the stars, and I gaze at you who are My tribute to Myself. We are the adorers and the adored, and We are the adoration We share.
You kneel before Me, and I kneel before you. We copy each other. We want to be One and the Same, and so We are.
The difference is that I know Who I Am and you know not Who You Are. It is too hard for you to believe, so you believe it not...
You forget, and know not what you forget. You forget that you have forgotten. You are My only begotten son. You think you are scrapings and scraps of yourself when you are Self Entire.
Now I'm speaking again, dear Oldooz. When was the last time that you or I or anyone we know really thought we are a Great Being? When was the last time that we thought of ourselves as the One Self of God within us? When did we ever really really accept that any of us are really Self Entire?
God tells us in many ways that each of us is a beautiful tapestry that He made. How do we see ourselves? Like scraps perhaps, rag ends. God sees us as One Great Work of Art, let's say, and we see ourselves as mere scrapings of paint, left-overs perhaps.
Most of us have never seen ourselves as God does see us. Our flaws and the flaws of seeming others dominate our vision. Maybe when we love, we begin to see what God is talking about. When we read God's words, we begin -- or almost begin -- to fathom His Love and His Vision.
If only we could believe in ourselves as God knows us to be, just His One Self working for Him in this guise we wear while we are on Earth.
Oldooz, how did you come to find this beautiful Heavenletter to translate?!!!
Could anything but a High Being translate this Heavenletter into Farsi? What a big role you are fulfulling! Thank you.
How beautifully you
How beautifully you explained it. It seems like sitting in a literature class. (I love literature, both Persian and English). I have to re-read what you've said to fully grasp it.
Hammock of the moon refers to the shape of the moon which is not yet full. It's a beautiful thing to imagine.. to imagine God sitting on the crescent of the moon watching His Child lighting up candles.
Well.. I was in tears (over some personal things) needed something to comfort me so I clicked on Cosmic Heavenletters Generator and there it came. Although the tears didn't stop but I was relieved, through it the translation was also born. How delicately and lovingly God speak to us in this Heavenletter. "You kneel before Me, and I kneel before you." -- yes I kneel before You, I do love to do so.
Thank you, Gloria.
Oldooz.
Thank YOU, Oldooz. You gave
Thank YOU, Oldooz. You gave me an understanding of the Hammock of the Moon. And your answer feels so right.
Oldooz, I grew up on fairy tales including a Thousand and One Nights and other collections of Persian fairy tales. I love the word Persian which carries the perfumes of another world. How I flew on a magic carpet.
God bless you
