Sin - a sanctuary of the ego?

For ego thinking, the idea of sin is perfectly sacred - its center. This is what is meant, when it is said, that we love sin. We love it, literally until death, until death parts us. It is the fundamental basis of our system of thought, which is fed by death and transience. The ego brings the sin to fear. And it demands punishment. The truth, however, brings the sin to love, where it is recognized as error.

Just a mistake?

Creation, out of its timeless purity, can only see a mistake, made by a human being. You too see it and call it sin, because you do not consider the timelessness, the eternity of creation. But an error can be corrected. And this, your error of sin, has long been fixed, since the beginning of time. Creation knows no clock.

Explosion of the ego thought?

The idea of original sin is an explosion of ego thinking, that goes unnoticed in unbelievable size and violence. God, creation, becomes something, that distinguishes between good and bad. That means laws and hierarchies. That judges, finds guilty and punishes. And so creation made the world. In sin. What madness if we look at what love really is, what creation actually illustrates. Namly the solitude. The eternity. Doesn't it become clear here, how utterly insane the idea of sin is in the face of this greatness?

Blind on the treadmill of consumption?

We got lost in the idea of sin - but so thoroughly, that we can't see anything else. Is, that the “love of sin?”, that is really meant? That is exactly what they are: the rags in front of our eyes, that blind us, on the treadmill of consumption. Which let us God, the creation, the true love degenerate into a vague ideal, a mere “Oh, that would be nice, but”.

Sin a lying building of the ego ?

Dissolve this basic concept of sin! It is a gigantic body of lies, that keeps you trapped in the illusion of ego reality. Here is the perfectly practical way. It is very easy to let love rule. When we realize, that behind the opaque fog of the thought of sin, there is love as the basis of all being - the love, that knows no good and no bad, no right and wrong - but simply is , with us - then we realize, that Sin “is just a sick idea of the ego”.

Sin dissolves?

With this knowledge of sinlessness, I am able to love everyone. The very basic principle of the expansion of love becomes abundantly clear. And, when I consciously begin to love, my view of the world will change towards the eternal, timeless truth of love - this happens for the worldview of every individual, very personally. That is, in concrete terms, the thought of sin dissolves. The view of the glory behind this dark mist opens up - step by step - door by door, which opens up for me personally.

Summary

Can love be a sin? Deep within ourselves, hidden from our eyes by the same scraps, that prevent us from seeing the love and sinlessness in others, there is the altar of truth, the light. By honestly striving to love without seeing sin in our lives, we prepare him for the truth, the great love of creation. We offer her welcome, we invite her. And how happily she accepts our invitation!

Death doesn't exist.

Why are the others getting better and better and I'm out of luck?

Happiness, the general question of satisfaction - and, that is the question it is about - is a matter of perspective. No. I'm not going to tell you, happiness is to wake up in the morning and be healthy. (Although, that's true) The reason you call "unhappiness" is because of the image you made of the world. The image of the world, that has been forced upon you - its preambles, its categories, the ladder of success.

How is success and happiness measured?

You know the answer. The global standard is simply money. At least, that's what you've been taught over the years. “Money is negative, but it makes things a lot easier”. And nobody will tell you, that you shouldn't show your success in monetary terms - if, that's how you want it. And we are still with the image of the world, that you have combined together with all your knowledge and experience.

What does it look like, my view of the world?

If you are of the opinion, that everyone else is doing better, that you deserve more in life, besides, that - the world is going to the end of epidemics and wars anyway - you are in the same boat as most of humanity - their image of life is also dark gray, at least in threatening, dark colors - existential fears threaten it. They look out of the window - they watch TV, are on their PC, mobile phone, they hear it on the radio. One talks. This is your reality, which you no longer really want to endure.

How do I see my existence?

What is it, life on this planet? A constant struggle, volcanoes of passions of every kind, envy, resentment, greed. A dense chaos, everything changes every moment, there is no real line. If an impartial psychiatrist were to judge humanity and what it is doing to the globe, he would come to the unequivocal conclusion: insane. And it is. Completely insane - because there is no real basis, nothing to trust.

Are we correctly judging happiness?

Chaos -, that is more than understandable, because after all, the world we see, which the individual experiences, completely individually for himself and only for himself, consists of his thought images, which in turn are manipulatively shaped by society. Since these assessments can never be correct - because no human being could muster even a fraction of the amount of evidence to support even a marginally correct assessment - our individual assessment of the situation is, all too clearly, quite simply wrong.

How could I turn this terrible world for the better?

The first, very simple step would be this: replace just one word. "How could I turn MY terrible world for the better?" Because it is only your world, the life, that you shape with your thought images. That is why meditation - thoughtlessness - is absolutely essential for anyone clinging to this life. This is a thoroughly practical approach, that anyone who is willing, can take.

What is behind the thought images?

The goal of every meditation is to let go of thoughts, thought patterns. Of compulsions and fears, that arise from these patterns. At the beginning of such an exercise project - because the really complete detachment, the unification of all opposites, requires a lot of time, in time - one will try to replace the thoughts about the world with a mantra. This can be a spoken or recorded mantra, an image, a figure or a color pattern.

In a superposition?

If you dive far enough into this thoughtlessness, you can detach yourself from the hardships of daily life, and you will increasingly feel a feeling of peace, comfort - yes, happiness. But real meditation, letting go - and here we are at the beginning again - also means trust. If we place our trust in the chaos of this world, in one of its idols, we become chaos ourselves, can only experience chaos.

Can you put into words the reason for the chaos, that I am experiencing for myself?

Absolutely. A single word is enough, that really explains everything. Attack. You think you have to defend the completely crazy chaos, that you call your life with hands and feet. And what defense is better than attack? Well, this, your crazy chaos, has no basis, nothing in it is constant. So you are on the move in every nook and cranny, fending off completely unpredictable blows of fate, attacking, with the clear conscience of only defending yourself. You bravely try to defeat the windmills.

Imposed, manipulated thoughts?

If you would see your life, the universe, the earth, society, the people without this thought manipulation, which you have been trained, cupped, imposed - you would fall on your knees in impotent, amazed gratitude - you would never again not even a fraction of a second wish yourself back to the chaotic madness. You would no longer be able to recognize it - because it never existed - is just a picture of your thoughts.
