Embracing Your Divinity - Instead Of Your Doubt

Embracing Your Divinity - Instead Of Your Doubt is the second in the series Essays In Honour Of Our Evolutionary Potential, the first being Confronting Your Immortality and the third Laughing At The Universe Of Lies. This second volume focuses on the nature of the relationship between the individual human soul and its measure of divinity. Are we sons and daughters of god, striving to free ourselves from stupidity and sin? Can we be redeemed from this fallen world into a state of blessedness? Religions would insist that we can but only if we give ourselves over to the moral imperatives handed down by their prophets and messiahs as interpreted by the priestly castes. That the individual can find his/her own way back to the divine state of oneness with all creation without gently dogmatic guidance is anathema to these organisations. The esoteric teachings making their way through the underground streams necessary in the days of religious repression originate in the mystery schools of Ancient Greece and Egypt, surfacing from time to time in brotherhoods like the Rosicrucians and Masons and the paths known as Magick and Wicca. Modern Theosophy has helped illuminate these traditions with its voluminous writings, and Spiritualism has allowed one aspect of the Ancient teachings, that of uncensored communication between the planes, to be experienced by the common man, liberating him from clerical dependence. Suddenly what Uncle Harry and Aunt Edith had to say about heaven was on a level playing field with Bible tales like St. Paul knowing a man in Christ who was suddenly taken up into the third heaven and seeing things there of which he could not speak. In this book you can hear what I have seen in some of the heavens and am in no way abashed to speak of them. The paths illuminated by accepting one`s immortality are many, and each of them leads to some understanding of our personal share of divinity. Each of us has a kernel of divinity within us and as the teachings and experiences outlined here place their spotlights on that kernel it blooms to encompass more and more of our being, or what we think of as our being. We observe it growing and wonder where it might stop once our initial enthusiasm dissipates. The truth is it never stops growing, whether or not you water it with your devotion.
