− | Evanson (Jonathan): Greetings this is Evanson. You have a phrase, that a drop of water returns to the ocean. The master has also said, "I am the water of life"[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_162#162:6._DISCOURSE_ON_THE_WATER_OF_LIFE]. [[Imagine]] yourself to be this living water, an [[individual]] droplet. In order to be a droplet there must be a boundary, that which you may call yourself. As you expand [[spiritually]] your droplet enlarges. Even in the chronological unfoldment of your life, your first expansion as an infant is that of the [[embrace]] of your [[mother]] and [[father]] and soon your siblings and this expansion continues through [[family]], [[friends]], neighborhood, [[community]], [[nation]], [[planet]], and the [[universal]] [[family]] of [[God]]. The expansion of the boundaries of yourself to be inclusive eventually makes your minuscule droplet the size of the ocean. To return to the ocean as a drop of water is to expand yourself to embrace the entire ocean. | + | Evanson (Jonathan): Greetings this is Evanson.

| You have seen a drop of water that stands on its own, and you have also seen a drop of water that collapses and spreads out smoothly, soaking that in its vicinity. This is the spiritual water of life that readily [[flows]] into and is absorbed by [[everything]] around it. This is how the master could say, if you have this water of life you will never thirst. | | You have seen a drop of water that stands on its own, and you have also seen a drop of water that collapses and spreads out smoothly, soaking that in its vicinity.
