The Lost Son of the Sun

August 15, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

How can I live in a world without shadows? How can I escape the labyrinth of my karma where my days seems to be on a recurring wheel, a fate of living on some eternal Ferris wheel that is going no where. So I tell a story here about remembering the gold buttons your Father the Sun God gave you. When I forget that I am the Son of Light, I cast shadows on the screen of the world coming at me as my the future, and I fight like a challenged knight of the Round Table. A winner or loser, the world seems to be an endless succession of knights, of fate to be defeated, and eventually, too old and tired I leave the field of batter with regrets for my lost battles. But something is missing. 

I have forgotten my gold buttons buried in my dresser drawer. When I remember the Sun God, the Light is directly overhead and I look at the world and there are now shadows. for that moment in vision anyway, that moment not of remembering a gift from the past, from a Sun of the past, but a Reminder that the Light of the Father is not eternal to me in time or even external to me now. I am that Light. The son and father are ONE! BAM! The shadows of my lunar mind and Ego disappear. 

No longer do the forms of the world come at me as obstacles and attackers, no longer do I feel the victim, no longer do I feel cursed with this burden of a world that never works with me, but always against me, a world to be overcome or controlled. No longer when the Vision of Light breaks through my shadowed world of clouds as Insight…insight that comes from the Light within, not without, not from some distant Sun, some authority or external Father.
