BREATH IN THE LOVE, BEAUTY & COMPASSION

You have been a member of the
human club since you
took your first breath,
but many of us have lost sight of what it truly means to be a
" HUMAN BEING ".
Religious, political and social organizations that we struggle to belong to
often interfere with our recognition of the fact that there is truly just one
important group , the " Human Race ".

We are not what we own. Our
consumer society is
not sustainable and is destroying the world.

of multiplication of desires? In the rich, isolation and spiritual
suicide; in the poor, envy and murder." Fyodor

"Love is the Religion and the Universe
is the Book." (Sufi Saying)
Our differences are what help us define
ourselves. We should respect and learn from those around us so we can grow, and
do no harm if we disagree. Yours is not the "right" way. It is just one of many ways.
Our spiritual path is just that, "our"
path. We have been blessed with Prophets, Saints and Sages who have bestowed the
knowledge. What we do with it is "our" choice. The destination we seek is as close
to us as our beating heart.
I wandered in the pursuit of my own self; I was
the traveler, and I am the destination.Iqbzl
" Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Look, the
(Father's) kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you.
If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather,
the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you."
Gospel of
Thomas
Don't wait for the "Kingdom of God" . It is here and now.
It is what we make of it. This is the gift we have been given
if we choose to use it wisely.
Membership to the Human Race is not by
choice, but by birth, there is no hierarchy, all members are equal. Your membership is guaranteed by birth, no
matter who you are.
How you participate will determine the quality of your life.
"We are not human beings having
a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human
experience."
"Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the
tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and
then,
for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered
fire."
"Your life and my life flow into each other as wave flows into wave,
and unless there is peace and joy and freedom for you, there can be
no real peace or joy or freedom for me. To see reality--not as we
expect it to be but as it is-- is to see that unless we live for each
other and in and through each other, we do not really live very
satisfactorily; that there can really be life only where there really
is, in just this sense, love.
(Carl) Frederick Buechner
Rules: Only
one, practice and follow the doctrine, "The Golden Rule".
If we can honestly do that everything
else will fall into place.
"If you see yourself in others, how can you harm them." Buddha
What do we do in the Human Club?
~ Explore our
identity through our connection with each other, the universe and our spirituality, not
through a material identity. "AWARENESS", are you
truly aware? If you were you would know who you really are, and why you are
here.
" You possess only whatever will
not be lost in a shipwreck.", El-Ghazali
Sharing our spiritual/religious experiences, or lack
of them, is a way to discover things about ourselves not to judge others.
Our differences are what help us "see" and learn. How would we know
light without darkness. You couldn't get "in" if there wasn't an
"out". Like two sides of a coin they make up the one coin.
"Religion is but one tree with many branches. If you look only upon the branches, then you
are tempted to say that there are many religions; But if you look at the whole tree, you
understand that there is but one religion." Mohandas Gandhi

Share our bewilderment
If we knew all the answers would we even be here? Our bewilderment is our
journey. Not to be feared, but to be seen through the eyes of a child with
excitement and fascination.
"When
one is united to the core of another,
to speak of that is to breathe the name HU,
empty of self, filled with love." Jalal al-Din Rumi
"
HU "
....In the word "huma", "hu" represents spirit, and the word
"mah" in Arabic means water. In English the word "human "
explains two facts which are characteristic of humanity: "hu" means
God and "man" means mind, which word comes from the Sanskrit "mana",
mind being the ordinary person. The two words united represent the idea of the
God-conscious person; in other words HU, God, is in all things and beings, but
it is man by whom He is known. "Human" therefore may be said to mean
God-conscious, God-realized, or God-man.
from The Music of Life by Hazrat Inayat
Khan
Now
more than ever in our world's history we have to grasp the true meaning of what
it is to be a
" Human Being ".

If you don't believe in Brahman, Hu, Allah, God, a Creator,

It is not for
any of us to
judge, but to learn from each other. Judge not, that ye be not judged. Matthew 7:1

rather than judge." Gerald Jampolsky

~I apologize to my sisters and brothers who do not use English as their native
language. At this time I don't have the skill to make this site multi-lingual,
and it is my short coming that I only speak English.
Please be patient with us.
GOOGLE has a language
translator that works fairly well.
I hope that helps.
