Spiritual Interludes

With God as our witness and Supreme Master Ching Hai as our savior, we have now entered the Golden Age of spiritual opportunity, when all ignorance will fall away, leaving the bright light of Truth in its place.

This era has been foretold in the world’s scriptures since ancient times, but alas, it is now before us; we are immersed in it! The current transformation seems unreal to the intellect, but humanity’s apprehension will slowly fade away as the world becomes more saturated in God’s Heavenly Light. Our place in the Golden Age is no longer a matter of mental calculation, but a beautiful voyage Home guided by our innermost nature.

Trust seems to be paramount on this exciting new journey for our minds no longer comprehend what may happen, how it will or why. Human thought is by nature confusing, and when good becomes bad and bad becomes good, the process of judging people and situations becomes foolish.

For example, one day a man rushed to his office, forgetting to carry with him an important document he had prepared for a morning meeting so he realized that he had to go back home to get the document. On the way to his house he became angry with himself and blamed God for not reminding him to bring the file. But when he arrived home, he found a thief searching his house and was able to scare him off. At that moment he thanked God for making him return home. Thus, because we are not always aware of what God is going to arrange for us in the next step of our life’s journey, our minds judge from the present situation, and this is often unwise.

So may God grant humans the openness to accept the paths Hes lays out for us in the Golden Age and the trust to know that all will be well, in hopes that the Earth finds peace in the new way we have chosen to live.
