In our webinar last week on the Spiritual & Metaphysical Secrets of Divine Manifestation, we talked about what Divine Manifestation is and what it isn’t. That night I received a question about surrender. So, I want to reiterate the main point of Divine Manifestation, and I want to share it with you because this is a really important question.
There is a hadith, a prophetic saying, that says, “God said, ‘I was a Hidden Treasure that desired to be known, so I created the creation to know Me.'”
The creation is all of existence, everything that we can know in this created realm the seen and unseen. And the creating is still underway. The creation is unfolding.
We are Divine Manifestation in action. We are here to know the Creator through what unfolds in the creation, and especially what unfolds through us – through our spirits and our hearts – through what we recognize and how we relate to it.
As human beings, we have free will – this is a basic law we all agreed to. In order to use free will, we have to forget the Divine Nature that is the basis of our consciousness and life force and existence itself.
As we forget our Divine Nature and connection with our Source, which we have to do, we individuate and our desires to be, do, and have stem from beliefs we’ve taken on about what we need from the world to be loved or successful or safe or…
These beliefs may or may not be aligned with Divine Truths. Typically they are only partially so, otherwise we would not feel so conflicted or confused. But this is part of the Divine plan – we learn through contrasts, and when faced with contrasts, we have an opportunity to examine our own beliefs, to discern what is more aligned with our inner knowing, and to choose, hopefully, what is in the highest for us and for the Greater Good.
As our world is evolving, we are experiencing more acutely the contrasts between false beliefs we’ve taken on and what we, individually and collectively, truly need to live in love, peace, compassion, harmony, justice, equality, freedom, contentment,…
More and more, we are given opportunity to discern and learn from the contrasts, to know ourselves more deeply, and to choose love – a love based on profound inner wisdom that will reunite us with our divine selves and our Source.
That passion you feel inside to serve, the desire you feel to lift spirits, ease suffering, to bring equality, creative expression, to improve life on earth and the conditions of Earth herself - these are calling you to say YES… Share on X
That passion you feel inside to serve and the desire you feel to lift the spirits, ease the suffering, to bring equality, creative expression, to improve life on earth and the conditions of Earth herself – these are calling you to say YES, to surrender to the Divine Manifestation that is unfolding through you as the consciousness evolves.
Some say surrender and allow the Creation to unfold – don’t try to change anything. I say surrender and enjoy the unfolding of the Creation as it moves through you – be a part of the change that is happening. We are part of the evolution, not separate from it. We are evolving too.
The Sufi teachings, which I have followed for many years now, are very much based in surrender and purification of the heart. One of the meanings of the word “Sufi” is to be like the wool in God’s hands, to release your individual will and allow God to make you into God’s Divine creation.
My spiritual teacher, Sidi Shaykh Muhammad al-Jamal, also used to say, “Be busy like the bees.” We are not to be idle, but to be in service.
We are beings of compassion. We are instruments of God's will. We are called to serve, and this service will bring us the most joy and fulfillment as we are fulfilling what God is bringing into manifestation... Share on X
We are beings of compassion. We are instruments of God’s will. We are called to serve, and this service will bring us the most joy and fulfillment as we are fulfilling what God is bringing into manifestation through an integration of a purified (purifying) being moving with inspired aligned action.
To me, this form of Divine Manifestation is Surrender.
This is my passion – what I want to support and serve through my programs.
If this speaks to the yearning in your heart, if it sparks your passion, I would be honored to support you to connect more consciously with the passion you feel, to gain clarity and alignment, to embody the truths you are called to exude as you bring through what is wanting to move through you.
That the purpose of the Divine Manifestation Workshop. It is a platform to support you to answer the call in your heart. The workshop begins this coming Thursday, July 21st 2022. I’d love for you to join us. Click here to get all the details and reserve your space.
