Heavenletters

Life on earth is so that you may know Me and know your closeness to Me. It is to turn to Me in your awareness, even while the stirring in the relative goes on.

There are two ways to interpret the word “you” in this quote. The first way is to see it as “me,” the individual reader, and this gives one sense of the meaning of the quote. But what if one takes the word “you” to mean us? This gives a somewhat richer and more expanded and perhaps clearer meaning to the quote (and possibly the sense of the entire letter). This perspective yields some interesting implications. We see that we, as a species, are evolving toward a reawakening to the awareness of our Creator. We see that it is not about me or about you, it is about us as the whole human race.

We also see, looking at it in this way, that the human race as a whole has been in a deeply confused state, having somehow lost the awareness which we are here now on earth to regain.

To me, this way of viewing this letter puts the focus on the whole of human society and may help to free us from a too rigid concern about our individual life, a concern that may be somewhat misplaced.

Who knows the best way to look at it, or if there is even a best at all?
