    Jewels of Truth Quotations & Favorite Quotes of The Month

    Thursday, December 17, 2009, 12:13 PM [General]

     

    (This is a cross-post from my blog site "Atrayo's Oracle")

    --------------------------------------------------------------

     

    Hello All,

    Here is another three "Jewels Of Truth" for you to enjoy at the now close of this year 2009.

    Happy Holidays, no matter the faith or lack of it that you adhere to during this festive season.

    Namaste.

    ------------------------------

    881) Many have stated why are we borne into corporal form as physical beings? It is said for the purpose to grow and mature by acts of unconditional Love. As souls we are perfect, due to the Image of God(dess) in us. But as physical beings paradoxically we are flawed. It is for this purpose we are borne to live and than eventually die in physical creation. This paradox of being a perfect soul and yet have a flawed physical form. Allows us as Spirits to grow and mature for the common good of creation.


    The womb of creation allows all life be it physical or spiritual to flourish. Without such a physical realm of creation perfect souls would have very little to keep occupied with on behalf of God's grand mystery. Amen.   ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

    882) Our disappointments may be many due to numerous reasons of the mind and heart. As we continue to live as people we grow past many of them, hopefully for our own betterment. For those disappointments that are heaviest, we must learn how to forgive and surrender them for our highest good to appear. Only then can we release feelings of guilt over time and enter into a fuller experience of what it means to be a fulfilled person. Amen.     ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.


    883) To understand one must allow the richness of life and its multiplicity to be simply absorbed via your senses. Thus one opens up their "minds eye" to the variety of creation itself. However with even understanding must be done in moderation so as to maintain an inner spirit of peace within one's own being. Otherwise ulterior ego based emotions may hijack one's own sense of justification. Surrender your need to know everything and you too will find happiness with each moment that continues to arrive. Amen. ---Ivan Pozo-Illas / Atrayo.

    -------------------------------------

    If you indeed cry out for insight, and raise your voice for understanding;...then you will...find the knowledge of God. ---Proverbs 2:3,5.

    Where there's life there's hope. ---Terence c190-159BC.

    Good deeds bring good deeds. ---Unknown.

    Where there is great love there are always miracles. ---Willa Cather.

    The store was closed so I went home and hugged what I own. ---Brooks Palmer.
