All things go back to their source
Nature is the highest metaphor for the way we can live best. It the way of teaching through creation, and through natural law, which simply equals being. Trees give oxygen, we breathe oxygen. Trees need carbon dioxide, we breathe out carbon dioxide. So it is in the cycle we are ever attached to what is outside us, breathing in creation. There is nothing beyond this very breath, for death looms with every inhalation and exhalation. “Breath is the cord that ties the soul to the physical body.” This works at the highest level as well, being that we can not live on ‘bread’ alone, that spirit is breathing into us life, and we get to be life, due to our actions and the actions of the spirit. It is never one or the other but a mutual balance. It is said that “man shall not live by bread alone, but from every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”(Matthew 4:4) What are words but breath and vibrations? This says to me that it is the spirit that brings about life through the vibrations of energy creation – thoughts of God – and the breath is the flowing winds of our soul. We must not forget our creative power of words and intention that we have inhearited from our creator.
The quest of water is not unlike our own. Every drop flows in a manner that it is taking the path of least resistance, yet flowing with a purpose to return to its source – the ocean. So what is our purpose? To flow without resistance – to aim towards an immoveable bliss, as every being wants happiness and not suffering. If we return to our essential nature – our source – we can only find that we have all it is we are looking for. And it had been inside us all along – realizing the self is the path of water – realizing that although it seems we are separate molecules racing about this way and that, we are actually flowing towards a greater awareness of our being, which is eventually the goal of becoming one with the great ocean of truth: Love.
