Jackpot! The value of ONE.

Monday, October 28, 2024

When we are born, we don’t awaken in total darkness. If it were total ignorance, we wouldn’t know how to breathe, how to cry, how to suckle, how to laugh, or how to recognize mother’s love. Basic instinct – we come to life with foreknowledge. But ALL knowledge is foreknowledge. The secrets are buried.

There are no firsts. Baby knows how to walk, talk, and how to live his entire life successfully, perfectly, and with great joy and love – he just forgot. Baby is born partially asleep, and most humans remain that way.

Life is a unification of Truth, or at least it seems that way. Truth is indivisible. As we approach adolescence and young adulthood we falsely believe life is additive, but I must tell you the joy of life is subtractive! It’s in the penetration and removal of the surface that the fullness of life begins to actualize from within.

Everyone is a scratch-off lottery ticket. We come born with a silver “film” encasing our divinity. Then, as we mature, the universe gets out its coin and starts scratching. You scratch the surface in a lifetime, hoping to reveal your winning number. As we scratch the surface, what do we see? We begin to see not the SURface but THE FACE.

Do you know what’s really under your scratch-off area? Not winning numbers, but THE NUMBER. You are that winning number. What say you, is that so-called winning number? It’s ONE. The one and only. You’ve got the winning ticket. You’re it. Congratulations, under that silver scratch-off area you’re a zillionaire. If you really knew that, you’d float into paradise without a care in the world. Oh, that the world knew the value of ONE!
