THE WAY
TO REVELATION
Many people wonder just what it is they must do to realize God. There is only ONE WAY in the final analysis. That is to drop thought. Drop ALL thought. When the mind is perfectly clear, free, and still, God reveals Itself to you. You may approach this no-thought condition through your religion or through self-awareness, but the final revelation is the same, and is a condition of no-thought, the Pure Meditative State.
Once you have "attained" the no-thought condition (which is a Level of Consciousness) you are immediately instantaneously completely revealed of The Truth of Life and of the relationship of all things and situations. You need not look any farther for Truth, Love, and Understanding, for it is Here. You have found it within you, and indeed, have discovered it to be your very life essence, your creator, and yourself. God creates man out of itself, by itself, and for itself. I use the term "it" when I speak of the Divine One because there is no sex in God - no sex differentiation, no need for two to mingle to create life, no drive, no duality. As you may deduct, then, there is no "you" in the picture at the moment of Inner-True-Self discovery (or self-awareness, realization, revelation, god-awareness, or any of the other terms which mean the same thing). This is the reason that the thought of self-discovery can be frightening -- the sense of separate-self disappears, dies, at the very moment BEFORE discovering Inner-True-Self. This is the meaning of the biblical statement that you must die before you can be re-born in Christ (or god-consciousness).
When the ego, or sense of separate self, hears truth, it may get scared and reject the truth and the
truth-sayer as "bad", merely because it is afraid for its "life", its existence as an entity, being, or level of consciousness. Further subjection of the ego to the truth-sayer will eventually destroy the ego, and leave the being at the gates of eternity, at which time the individual must take the final step and open the door and take a peek. The entire process is constantly under the control of the individual, not under the control of the truth-sayer. The truth-sayer merely speaks and acts as truth is intuitively recognized and channeled through it according to the instantaneous level of consciousness of the truth-sayer. This explains the situation of
Inner-True-Self dis-covery, and the role of the truth-sayer in helping, or assisting, or guiding, the seeker to do so.
