THE CALLING - Love's Invitation:
To me, "The Calling" always has been and always will be an invitation to return to the essence. It is an invitation from 'the beyond', the ‘Great Mystery’, presented to us countless times within our everyday living to experience the essence of life, the gift of love and the opportunity to remember who and what we essentially are. In truth, the calling is from the "One" to the "One", from the one consciousness to the one consciousness through the seeming "many". It is a clarion call through the veils of forgetfulness and ignorance, for the true One to remember its indefeasible "Oneness" within the dance of life. As this unfathomable intelligence awakens within the dream reality we call "life on earth” and evolves its self-reflected awareness through the experience of being human, what an adventure and celebration we are offered as we joyfully respond to love’s invitation.
This is the fundamental message and contribution (in one way or another) of all spiritual teachers, visionaries, light-workers, healers and emissaries of peace, regardless of their personal practice, methods of teaching or religious and cultural heritage. Within this invitation, there is also the consideration that the global peace we collectively long for can only be discovered and established through the cultivation of inner peace. This realm of "inner peace" then reveals to us that it is simply a by-product of intelligence returning home to the sanctuary of consciousness, whereby the reinstating of love releases a fragrance which is beyond understanding. This fragrance truly is the most precious treasure on earth.
For humanity to experience global peace, however, the Universal Law of Interdependence must also be abided by. It is a law that governs all of life and reminds us that . . .
Interdependence is the compassionate weaving of the thread of love throughout the entire tapestry of existence.
As with all spiritual laws, however, no human being can be forced to understand, let alone live in accordance with such a fundamental principle of life. We are only ever invited by life and in turn, can only invite one another to live together in harmony and unity. This is why I refer to "The Calling" as an invitation, not a demand. How we respond to this calling will determine the quality of our life and whether or not we have fulfilled our purpose on this sacred earth.
