【為何神不在與神對話裡把「所有的真理」談完?】
如果我把所有的真理都放在這部對話上,你們會將這本書當成你們的《聖經》(turn this book to your bible)。
尼爾:我不會那樣。
嗯,相信我,有些人會將它變成他們的《聖經》。
尼爾:是的,我了解。
所以,我們(在這對話要談的)將藉由不把每件事都放在一部書裡,或把你設置為那唯一的單一源頭,以避免這樣的事發生。
事實上,單一源頭在每個人之內(the Single Source lies within each person)。這是新靈性的另一個基本真理。任何希望知道更多基本真理的人,可以透過深入自己之內(by going deeply within)而做到。
向內探詢、向內自省、詢問自己內心。如果你不向內探索,你將一無所獲(If you don’t go within, you go without.)。如果不向內心探索,你將無法獲得那讓你滿足的答案;你將無法獲得那留在內心的平安;你將無法獲得那從你散發的喜悅;你將無法獲得那「變成為你」的愛(love that becomes you)。
摘自《重新定義神》第16章
If I put all of them here, you would turn this book into your bible.
Neale: I would not.
Well, some people would turn it into theirs, believe me.
Neale: Yes, I understand the problem.
So we’re going to avoid that by not putting everything into one book or setting you up as the only single source.
The truth is that the Single Source lies within each person. That is another Foundational Truth of the New Spirituality, and it is the last that we will discuss in detail here. Anyone who wishes to know more of the foundational truths may do so by going deeply within.
Search within, ask within, inquire within, seek within, go within—for if you do not go within, you go without. You go without answers that satisfy you, you go without peace that remains with you, you go without joy that emanates from you, you go without love that becomes you.
Love does become you—it makes you look very wonderful, indeed— and it turns into You while it turns You into it. That is what Love does. It is transformative. It turns everything inside out. Yet it, like wisdom, must come from within you—each of you—for the experience to be personal and lasting.
