God Consciousness, Glorified Cosmic Consciousness PT 4

In Jane, sees, the flower, seeing is the link, the verb. Seeing can be considered an act of love. It brings the flower and Jane together. There are innumerable situations, however, where the link does not seem to be positive. In John, feels, pain, we cannot say that John is connected to pain and therefore he somehow loves pain.Not liking, hating, being afraid of, and other similar phrases are negative feelings. They can be seen as the negative or lower level in the spectrum of connectedness. Nonetheless, they are ways to connect and be connected. It is indifference and ignorance that isolate and separate, leading to entropy and dissolution. Creation is a process of coming together. The supreme value of coming together, upholding and supporting each other, is true love. In infinite love there is unbounded appreciation.

Seeing can be considered an act of love. When all of Creation, everything we see, hear, touch, smell, and taste, glows with beauty, our thoughts and our feelings turn toward the source of all that intelligence and beauty, which people in all cultures have equated with God—again, in whatever way one may conceive of Him (Almighty Father) or Her (Divine Mother). Those who do not personalize “The Source of All,” who are agnostic or atheist, could also find in the paradigm presented in this book an elucidation of the awe of recognizing that, somehow, order and beauty exist and can be experienced. It is the ultimate verb, the supreme link, the unbounded process.
