Remembering Wholeness
God is the One Mind, and is Whole. And from the whole came the whole and each part is a whole in itself, the Soul.
No single part of the Main Mind loses any of its radiance, just like each drop of water contains the same composition of the Ocean.
God is the Ocean and each drop of water can be compared to an individual soul. However just as each drop of water, if separated from the ocean, becomes weak and powerless, so also the physical manifestation (the personality) when separated from God becomes weak and misguided, thinking itself the body and not of God.
Another example is that of air. Once air enters into a balloon and is tied up, the air identifies itself with the balloon and thinks that it is the balloon. In forgetting thus, the enclosed air becomes weak and powerless and forgets what it is- that it can blow down houses and refresh people, rustle leaves and create hurricanes. It forgets its power. It is only when the plastic body of the balloon is pricked, and the air escapes into the sky, that it remembers its true nature and power.
In the same way, the part of the individual soul, known as the human personality, because of its closeness to the material world, forgets its divine source and becomes completely bound to the body that it is now. It thinks that it is only the body and acts like it is only a material being with no spiritual component whatsoever. And so it loses its power.
In the loss of its power, the being now searches elsewhere for power, looking towards wealth, food, sex and other such avenues for it. It finds power in collecting resources of a material nature. And all because it has forgotten its wholeness.
Come empower yourself by remembering who you are..and take this rediscovered power back to the physical world.
