\"illusion\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We are all the same flesh and blood, made from the same cosmic particles. The differences we highlight are an illusion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Our perceived differences are the greatest illusion that exists.<\/p>\n

It is only that which we focus on that makes us seem different, if we really knew what we were, we wouldn’t see ourselves as separate any more. We are connected, part of the one cosmic awakening, part of the divine dance of creation.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“<\/em>We are all on the same path… Our separation from each other is an illusion of consciousness.”<\/em> \u2014 Albert Einstein<\/span><\/p>\n

Is there such a thing as a true reality? Perhaps the whole world is a dream or a dance of consciousness dreaming itself alive?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Perhaps everything we perceive is merely imagination. This shouldn’t be a source of shame. On the contrary, the brilliant Albert Einstein posited that \u201cImagination is more important than knowledge.\u00a0For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

So it is the world of imagination that really conceives of our reality construct. It is our imagination that dreams our perception of the world into being.<\/p>\n

In choosing to pollute our world, we have distorted our reality. It has placed\u00a0a cloud on the prism of our consciousness.<\/p>\n

We ought to be reminded of Nature’s ways –<\/p>\n

\u201cNature\u2019s way is simple and easy but men prefer what is intricate and artificial.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Lao Tzu<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Loving what appears before us (reality as we see it) is a process and sometimes can be very challenging; it\u2019s not always blissful, or at least not immediately so.<\/p>\n

It is through cultivating a compassionate and accepting heart, that we develop these feelings and qualities within our souls. Then we end up discovering that it was there all along and really, we were just coming home to ourselves.<\/p>\n
