What If?

WHAT IF?

WHAT IF unconditional love, unlimited resources, infinite intelligence, spontaneous creativity, universal power, unending life, and uncaused serenity and contentment are constantly available choices for you?

And WHAT IF you didn’t see these choices, and without awareness you “chose” by default to put most of your time , attention and energy into beliefs and assumptions about the value or necessity of struggle, worry, low self-esteem, victim feelings, control and power plays, anxious and depressive behavior, addictive “solutions” , blame guilt and atonement games, and the medication of stress?

And WHAT IF such default choices resulted in a painful crisis or impasse in your life? And WHAT IF you took the challenge to courageously and honestly look for any mistakes in your pet assumptions in spite of your desire to be “right”? And WHAT IF you asked yourself how and why you attracted and created your dilemma so that you could find out what it really means, enabling you to transform it into a bigger picture?

And WHAT IF you realized that human behavior is basically spiritually motivated and that all of our troubles and crises are actually “wake up” signals to look again?

And WHAT IF you looked more deeply and saw that:

• what is driving the 15% annual increase in health costs is the desire to find health and wholeness;
• and what is driving the violent crime and road rage epidemic, not to mention politics and wars, is the disguised desire for self-worth and power;
• and what is driving drug, alcohol, food and porn addictions is the secret desire to reduce stress and ‘get high”;
• and what is driving the stock market and business world technology craze is really the desire of our alienated wireless society to “stay connected”;
• and what is driving consumerism is actually the far of lack and the desire for more; and what is driving the sexual compulsiveness of our time is the desire for excitement, intimacy and oneness;
• and what is driving the internet explosion into the information age is the symbolic desire for true knowledge and wisdom;
• and what is driving all of our desires is the search for the Infinite Good beyond all of the fickle tangible gods we usually depend on.

WHAT IF you realized that the potential for staying connected, getting high, discovering wholeness, feeling empowered , accessing wisdom, and experiencing intimacy and prosperity are already given to you and are presently available to you through a shift in awareness?

And then WHAT IF you decided to wake yourself up to your Infinite Spirituality each moment of the day, especially when you get a distress signal telling you there is a “problem?” Then we could be grateful to know that we are conscious spiritual beings having a human experience and that life is what we always dreamed it should be but feared to believe that it actually is.

And WHAT IF you decided to take a leap, regardless of the risk and the consequences, in order to find out the truth about yourself? And WHAT IF you didn’t give up this WHAT IF question until you became enlightened?
