Weekly Bible Quote 75 with commentary by the School of Truth

Blessed is he who keeps the Law - (Pro 28:18)
Ever more deeply I accept the oneness of Creation


The great leaders and prophets of the Old Testament established laws for good living over the ages. But underlying all such laws in all the civilizations of history is one fundamental Law: You shall love God with all your heart and soul and with all your mind, and you shall love your neighbour as yourself.

This "love" which we pursue with heart and mind is nothing less than acceptance of God's oneness. Whenever we alienate ourselves from any aspect of God's creation we tear ourselves apart and invoke inevitable pain and suffering - we live in a shattered world, a world of separation of things, people, feelings, thoughts. Love is the restoring acceptance that there is only one Creation and we are each the very centre of It. This Oneness contains all that we could ever need or truly desire, for nothing real exists outside of It.

It is this consciousness of Oneness that Truth seeks to bring to us. We practice it in meditation and in the hurly-burly of our daily lives. It is our destiny.
