The Desire To Know The Sacred Way
Many are awakening to Spirit’s call. When we look upon the past fifty years of how our Western culture has shifted its approach to religion and spirituality, we see that it continues to return to the ancient ways, leaving behind a punishing god and coming to remember its place in the Oneness. We, as a culture are embracing the old ways of yoga, meditation, ceremony, sacred song, etc.; seeing the Divine One as an accessible energy that wants to embrace us as much as we want to embrace It. We come to see that God is in the community, in the songs, in the ceremony and prayers, in our rituals and practices. We are beginning to understand that through these energies we come to hear the voice of God within our own being.
I remember reading a book by Deepak Chopra many years ago named, “How To Know God” and I was very grateful for its message. It clearly displayed the ways humankind has view God/ Divine Presence and how this view has evolved over the years. I highly recommend it if you are at the beginning of your journey and are confused by the various theologies out there vying for your attention.
The Way of the Sacred is a very personal journey. It is an intimate conversation between your spirit, your higher self, and The Oneness. There is no one way, there is no right or wrong methods. The paths to a relationship with Spirit which I call interchangeably; God, The Oneness, Divine Presence, is many. All is God. Everywhere you look is a mirror showing you where you stand on the map of this spiritual journey. If you learn to detect the messages of these mirrors you will see where you are on your journey. Are you are moving toward or away from The Oneness? Are stuck and not knowing how to move forward? The Way of the Sacred will point you on the path to its center. We are destined to know this center, how we get there is up to us. Will it be a beautiful, enjoyable and fun experience? Or will it come with suffering, difficult lessons and pain? These are our choices. To embrace the Way of the Sacred is to take the path of romance, to enter into a loving embrace and dance with the Divine Presence all the way to the very core of its truth.
Why would we want to take on this work and enter the Way of the Sacred? It is our true essence. It is why we are here on this planet in this time. We all feel the longing. We know there is something missing. We feel the emptiness yet many of us lack the understanding of what our soul is seeking. So we try to fill it with outside gratifications such as sex, relationships, food, alcohol, drugs, material possessions, career, acknowledgement and acceptance from others. The list goes on and on. Yet as we fill ourselves up with these energies, our souls are never satiated. How can it be? For we turn away from the one thing we truly desire, living in our true nature and place within The Oneness. We are hard wired to be in relationship with this and when we are disconnected, we feel alone, abandoned, rejected, afraid.
Our souls are calling us home. When I was in college I entered into a state of depression. I would often cry and plea then, “I want to go home.” I used to think I was longing for my family’s home where I felt safe and taken care of until one day I was crying and speaking these words aloud and I was in my family’s home! Immediately I stopped crying and sat in silence. What did this mean? If this (my family’s home) isn’t the home I was longing for, then what was? Later that year I came across a Herman Hesse book that spoke of home being with God. That concept resonated deeply within me and it was in this moment I began the journey to my true home.
