聽神【敘述「與神交往融洽一體」的狀態】
與神對話系列之一的書名所稱的「與神合一」，較正確地說是一種與神交往融洽的一體狀態(communion with God)。以下這篇是神對此狀態的解說，值得每個人參閱並牢記在心。因為這狀態是真實的。因為每個人都是身心靈三面向的生命，我們的超意識和超覺意識始終都存在並隨時向我們開放——只要我們不偏離靈性(spirituality)的本質(參閱本篇下面的「相關文章」)。
這種融洽的一體狀態經常被許多人經驗到或短暫觸及到。iGOD.tw網站和「與神對話生活智慧」Facebook的創立和運作都是這經驗的明顯例子。但只有當我們處在一種較高意識 (或連結自己的 higher mind) 的狀態時，才有可能觸及或進入此狀態。
聽神【敘述「與神交往融洽一體」的狀態】
在與神交往融洽的一體狀態裡，你會暫時失去所有的個別身分感。然而，這並不會引發任何的失落感，因為你會知道你只不過是實現了你的真實身分 (your true identity)，也就是說，你已經真實化了(real-ized)它。你已非常實在地讓它成真了 (made it real)。
一種無法形容的幸福、一種高雅的狂喜將包裹住你。你會覺得與愛融合，與一切合為一體，而你將再也不會滿足於任何比這差的東西。
有過這經驗的人會以一種新的方式回到世界和他們的人生。他們會發現自己愛上了每個他們見到的人。他們在令人驚訝的神聖融合中，體驗到與所有其他人的一體。
一種被升高的覺知及對自然的深刻感激，使得即使最小的觸動，也會令他們喜極而泣，說話較柔，行動更為溫和。
這些以及其他的改變，也許會維持幾個小時或幾天、幾個月或幾年——或一輩子。此經驗的長短，純粹是個人的選擇。這經驗會自行消退，如果它沒有再被更新。正如光的亮度會隨著一個人離開它時，光會漸漸消失；當一個人離開一體時，一體的幸福感也會消減。
要留在有光的地方，那個人必須保持與光接近。要留住在幸福感中，人們也必須同樣地做。
那就是為什麼你們被敦促，當你還生活在目前的幻覺裡，每天都要不惜一切地做些努力——如冥想、祈禱、閱讀、寫作，或聽音樂，任和你發現對你有用的事——來點燃你的覺知。
然後你就會在那至高 (the Most High) 的神聖地方。你會感到高亢(feel high)，並且珍視你自己(think highly of yourself)以及其他每個人、每個生命。
然後，你會創造並幫助人們改善生活，以你從未貢獻過的程度。
摘自《與神合一》第19章
In a state of communion with God you will temporarily lose all sense of individual identity. Yet this will occur without any sense of loss, for you will know that you have simply realized your true identity. That is, you have real-ized it. You have, quite literally, made it real.
An indescribable bliss, an elegant ecstasy, will envelop you. You will feel merged with love, one with all. And you will never be satisfied with anything less.
People who have had this experience return to the world and their lives in a new way. They find themselves falling in love with everyone on sight. They experience Oneness with all others in surprising moments of Holy Communion.
A heightened awareness and deep appreciation of nature can bring them to unexpected tears of joy at the slightest provocation. And a new clarity about everything they are seeing in the world around them can render them transformed. They often begin moving more slowly, talking more softly, acting more gently.
These and other changes may last for several hours or several days, several months or several years—or for a lifetime. The length of the experience is purely the individual’s choice. It will fade of its own accord if it is not renewed, just as the brightness of a light fades the farther one moves away from it, the bliss of Oneness fades the longer one has been away.
To stay in the light, one must remain close to it. To stay in the bliss, one must do the same.
That is why you are urged, while living with your present Illusion, to do whatever else it takes—meditate, exercise, pray, read, write, listen to music, whatever you find that works—to ignite your awareness daily.
Then you will be in the holy place of the Most High. And you will feel high, and think highly of yourself, and of others, and of all of Life.
Then, too, you will create and contribute to Life as you have never contributed before.
