A POWERFUL PARADIGM SHIFT
To be miracle class , to be awesome , to achieve beyond your wildest dreams to be something you first have to realize that you are nothing
Something to consider:
If someone IS for example strong/skilled/understanding etc immediate questions arise
How strong strong/skilled/understanding etc?
What is meant by strong/skilled/understanding etc?
When is the person strong/skilled/understanding etc always ,in specific situations at specific times etc?
How long has this person been strong/skilled/understanding etc?
These questions are clarifying context,definition,duration borders ,limits etc
So if someone is defined by a trait , state etc,has borders,limits etc then the person..then there would seem to be a beginning and an end, fallibility
A person is defined or characterized as being understanding,strong etc
the person though is not strength or is not understanding( the noun)
In other words the thought cannot comprehend the thinker as the thought is a product of the thinker
G-D cannot be defined,limited etc, the anthropomorphisms that we use are just to get some grasp on a concept
We" meet" G-D,"see" G-D by interaction wherever G-D manifests Himself( a discussion for another time)
BY extrapolation G-D is not within time G-D is Time so therefore you can feel that you are making a fully free choice but at the same time can wholeheartedly accept that G-D knew you would make that choice and directed that choice
This is the language of paradox... a way to transcend the limitations of logic and play on the field of giants where impossibility is possible
Extrapolating further if G-D is time and we exist in time that means without G-D we dont exist we are nothing
A small point in context..research the size of the earth in comparison to other planets stars,solar systems galaxies etc..it is less than dust and we for all intense and purposes in the endless universe are nothing and do not matter
BUT..if we employ the language of paradox we understand that only with G-D are we something and not just something..we go from nothing, from dust to being everything as G-D is everything and thus connected to G-D ,to infinite power,to infinite holiness,to infinite potential we have the potential to achieve ,succeed, feel ,do ,beyond all imaginations ,to totally shatter our limits as if they never were...
....so whatever fears ,phobias,hang ups,self esteem issues etc that we might have when you totally accept in your heart , are totally present in , and totally believe then all these issues with enough effort fall away because its never you its always G-D.
