LONELINESS

Loneliness is one of our greatest gifts.

Loneliness has been given a bad rep. It is resisted almost more than any other feeling. We avoid it with relationship we don't even want to have. We avoid it by distracting ourselves with everything that gives us a sense of otherness and approval. We use each other, our work, the media, electronics, sex, meditation, yoga, exercise, religion, gossip, hopes and dreams of the picket fence, drinking, drugs and anything else we can find to avoid the feeling of loneliness.

The Origin of Loneliness

About 100 years ago lonliness came to Earth. If you feel the experience of loneliness then, you will find it is barely existing on the Earth. At that time people felt like life was easy and forgiving. Things were not rushed. People took things much easier and they were "The Good Old Days". Loneliness did not exist yet as an overwhelming experience.

As years went on, that experience of loneliness grew to where it is now covering every crevis of the Earth. It dominates our daily reality. It is the dreaded experience that we have hired therapists for, taken drugs for, drank alcohol for and gotten depressed over. It has become our enemy.

Why, though, is this experience of loneliness become so dominant on the Earth.

The reason is surprising and mind blowing.

About 100 years ago, the Divine decided that it was on schedule to wake up this planet of ours. It decided that the one thing people needed to know more than anything is how they were avoiding their Aloneness.

Awakening cannot happen without the knowing that you are Alone. Completely Alone. There is nobody out there to blame, complain about, project onto, resist, etc. The illusion of other is the crux of duality. It is the reason we suffer. Eventually we come to know that being Alone is inevitable and cannot be avoided. It is a scary place at first but is eventually seen as a wonderful gift of souverin peace.

LONELINESS IS THE AWARENESS OF HOW YOU ARE RESISTING YOUR ALONENESS.

Simply put, it is your biofeedback device that has been given to you to measure, point out, bug you, etc. of where you are resisting your Aloneness.

The solution is to ask Loneliness to point out, teach us, guide us and give us the awareness of where we are resisting being alone. ASK LONELINESS TO TEACH YOU THIS VALUEABLE AWARENSS. It will quickly show you the road to awakening. It is efficient and extremely to the point in its guideance.

Loneliness is a GIFT. It is a gift of unpresedented compassion from the Divine.

Loneliness when we first ask it to guide us will start to surround all the places of avoidance in your self. It will then, one by one, reveal what we need to see in the order that we need to see it. It will give us small bits at first and then wallop us with the eventual Truth of the beauty of Aloneness.

Loneliness is truly my teacher and my best friend. Thank you Divine for this gift.
