It was stated in the discussion “Our
Birthright” that we must claim our birthright. If you seek your
birthright you shall find it for it is always been offered to you in
some way. But to seek it you have to look within and align with it
through feeling.
On this point of accepting your birthright when offered, it is much
like an old joke which goes as follows. There was a religious
teacher whose place of worship was being flooded. You can substitute
the religious teacher of your choice - priest, minister, rabbi,
mullah, guru or whatever - and the place of worship - church,
synagogue, temple, mosque, tabernacle as you like. As the story
goes, there is a great story and the river water is rising to flood
the place of workshop. A rowboat rows up to the door way and say,
“Get in the row boat, you will be safe, the water is rising.” The
teacher says, “God gave me this church and He will protect me.” The
rains continue and the water rises. When the water is up to the
alter, another rowboat comes. The teacher is told, “Get in, the dam
will break and flood your place of worship.” The teacher replies,
“God gave me this place and He will protect me.” A little while
later, the teacher is up on the roof and a helicopter comes with a
rope and the pilot says, “Get it, the dam is breaking.” The teacher
replies, “God gave me this place and He will protect me.” The next
thing the teacher knows is that he is standing before God in heaven
and asks, “Why didn’t you protect me?” God replies, “What do you
want, I sent you two row boats and a helicopter - why didn’t you get
in?”
So too our birthright. We get offers and occasions all through our
life to accept and act on our birthright. We are never removed from
it and it cannot be taken away from us.. However most of us are
reluctant and refuse to take responsibility for what we create when
offered. A part of us knows our enculturation cannot do justice to
explain and/or show us how to live in Physical Creation where we do
have an active role is determining why we are here and we create the
experiences we have. Although
it is necessary to forget our role in how we created the
experiences we have to have the experience of our creation, most of
us prefer to be kept in the dark about our role. It is easier to
blame others, or even God, for what we experience that to create
something different. Yet such an attitude lead to a victim
consciousness where we are as a puppet on a string at the mercy of
God or others. The bottom line here is that we cannot blame God for
not offering to help. People and situations are routinely sent into
our life for to consciously claim
our birthright.
The only real question is, “How much pain and suffering do we need
to experience before we choose to understand the
role of pain and how we do create the experiences we have?”
