Native Americans do not define their ‘faith’ , when asked the answer will be “life” . It is how you live in harmony with creation . Creator and Great Spirit are separate but still one . Creator created , and the Great Spirit is the essence of the Creator that flows through and is part of creation . We are part of that creation with the essence , the Spirit of the Creator within .
In ancient Judaism the symbols for God (the Creator) translates as ‘the everything’ , which is a verb, action . We hold the active essence of the Divine within , as we are of a Divine Creation.
In ancient Judaism “faith” was how you lived , not what you professed.
These are but two examples from peoples from two different continents. But what can this mean ?
If we live in a , as well as being a part of , a Divine Creation with the essence of the Divine in us , how does this impact how we live ?
We are a manifestation, an expression of the Divine. If we live our life in alignment with the Divine then we are mindful, we see the eternal in the moment and the Oneness with all . Our ‘faith’ is then our life . With this we choose ‘right thinking’ with ‘right actions’ . We align our thoughts, not with society, but with the Divine. A living expression of the Divine. Give up expectations, for Right Living requires none , only being . Plan and release it into the future., look at your past and let it go . Live now , live rightly in this moment, and all else disappears. The now lived well , lived in unison with the Divine , is all there is , and should a future come , it will take care of itself .
That future is an extension of the eternal now, you have only to give up your false identity of this world and embrace your true self now , in this moment. Shed your fear , your regrets, your expectations . Know that you are the Oneness, now.”
