Lesson

Thought Adjuster: “In this world one’s external appearance usually has little to do with the growth of one’s soul. To the Father you are all beautiful, since you are all His creation, perfect and original. The caterpillar is never as beautiful as the butterfly, and nature has provided you with this metaphor so you can take a look at your own existence. What you are today is but a vague shadow of what you will later be in your lives beyond this world.

“Besides this, all of you possess the perfect and divine presence of the Father inside of you. All of you have the very source of truth, beauty and goodness, contained within your personality. As you grow in spirit, this internal being reveals itself with more intensity and the inner beauty starts to become evident in the way in which you relate to your peers.

“Why are you so much inclined to separate and discriminate based on the physical appearance, the color of the skin, or geographical origin? None of these things are under your control. Would you blame your brother because he has not grown taller? Would you punish yourself because you were born in a certain place? It makes no sense.

“Similarly, your beliefs, your ideas, and the way in which you see the world, are to a great extent a product of your culture – the place where you were born, the people around you while you were growing up, and the ideas that have been promoted during your life. It is also illogical to discriminate against others because of what they believe. It is enough to imagine yourself in their shoes, having lived a life similar to those who seem so different, to understand that you would probably believe the same things and behave in the same fashion.

“You are each other, part of the same organism, each contributing to the collective experience of the Supreme Being. Your experiences on this side of the spiritual path are as necessary and valuable as are the experiences of those who defend fundamentalist religions full of prejudice, or the experiences of those who don’t believe in anything. With all the different paths there are lessons to be learned and understandings that will be available to universal wisdom. A creature that ascends from the very bottom of material darkness will be better suited to minister those who go through the same situations. Can you perceive the wisdom of the divine plan of mortal evolution? Can you perceive there is a reason for everything? Can you see how even from error, confusion, and suffering, total victory in the battle of eternity can be achieved?

“Live and make an effort to better get to know your neighbors. You will only discover God in your heart and in the hearts of your siblings. Walk your own personal path and help each other. Accept that you are all valuable and you are truly siblings growing together in this planetary home that will produce great souls for the service of the universe.”
