The sense, the devotion of those whose devotion was so extreme, brings the energy of their devotion into your own inner experience, and you get what it is. You get what it is – the worship and the recognition and the acknowledgment of the sacredness of that which is Divine. That’s a road which anyone can take- the appreciation for beauty, um. A great aria in an opera can just wipe you out, you know.

…We experience the presence of God through love, through beauty, through that which is sacred. So we are worshipful when we respect the sacredness of all of life. We worship God when we turn the black beetle over from his back onto his tummy so he can walk away, instead of leaving him there with his legs wobbling in the air. Out of that act we worship God because it is God’s life, so long as it exists in this form, is sacred and we realize the sacredness. So, it’s an act of worship. All that we do that supports life is a recognition of the– a respect for the sacredness of life. And that’s really all that’s required.

God is everywhere present, including the here and now. God is not elsewhere, such as only in a distant heaven or in the future so as to be available only when one gets to heaven. The presence of God is thus available to everyone all the time. To realize this is just a matter of awareness. It is said that without the help of a guru, savior, or avatar, this awareness is unlikely to occur in the lifetime of most people, which may be true.

God is beyond perception, duality, positionality, or having parts. God is beyond all opposites, such as good and bad, right and wrong, win and lose. Like the sun, God shines equally on all. God’s love is not reserved for the favored few. It is, however, experienced directly only by the few, but it does shine through the clouds via the love we experience with others, including even pets and nature. The degree to which one experiences the presence of God’s love varies markedly from one person to another, depending on one’s level of consciousness.

The desire to search for God or enlightenment is already evidence of having been spiritually inspired. As the ego vacates, the Radiance of the Self uplifts and inspires.  Henceforth, it is not possible to be alone. At the critical moment, spiritual commitment and dedication bring forth the unseen help of the Great Beings who are no longer in physical bodies – yet their energy stands at the great doorway of the final moment when one is sustained by the Holy Spirit and the wisdom of the teachers of Truth.

The Ego is Not the Real You: pg. 124

Love is misunderstood to be an emotion; actually, it is a state of awareness, a way of being in the world, a way of seeing oneself and others. Love for God or nature or even one’s pets opens the door to spiritual inspiration. The desire to make others happy overrides selfishness. The more we give love, the greater our capacity to do so. It is a good beginning practice to merely mentally wish others well in the course of the day. Love blossoms into lovingness, which becomes progressively more intense, nonselective, and joyful.

Daily Reflections from Dr. David R. Hawkins: Dec. 3rd pg. 155

Lovingness is a way of relating to the world. It is a generosity of attitude that expresses itself in seemingly small but powerful ways. It is a wish to bring happiness to others, to brighten their day and lighten their load. To merely be friendly and complimentary to everyone one meets in the course of a day is revealing.

…The large area of life that is socially acceptable and open to everyone is that which is called ‘caring’. To ‘care for’ is a wide-open avenue for the expression and expansion of love. People say they cannot find love as though it were something to be gotten. Once one becomes willing to give love, the discovery quickly follows that one is surrounded by love and merely did not know how to access it. Love is actually present everywhere, and its presence only needs to be realized.

The universe responds to love by revealing its prevalence. It is hidden to ordinary perception, but the awareness is finessed by lovingness itself. Awareness is a capacity that is beyond the senses or emotions. If one ceases anthropomorphic projections and limitations, it is revealed that all that exists is innately conscious and emanates love as a consequence of the divinity of Creation.
