Each of the Great Masters teach us that there is a Universal Life Force. Some call it Universal mind. Over the centuries we have called it a variety of names. Higher Power, Man Upstairs, and God. I never did like the term Man Upstairs because unlike many people, deep down I never really have believed there is a man up past the clouds somewhere. You will notice in this first illustration, and maybe you have already known this, Buddha doesn't refer to a God. Although the quote from Buddha seems diferent at first there is a common theme to these quotes. Hover over the name of a Great Master for their quote to appear under their name. I hope you enjoy this different format
Each of the Great Masters taught that the Universal Mind/Divine Mind is the Life within us. Our Light dwelling in our heart. It is our perfect mind that goes beyond the thoughts of our human thinking. In fact, when we attempt to describe it in our limited human way, we can't do so adequately
Each of the Great Masters taught that Universal Mind has been around since the beginning, watches over us and we will return to it
Each of the Great Masters taught that all things have always come from God, and although it has had many names, all things are filled with God and we experience it with the Universal Mind inside of us
Each of the Great Masters taught that the Universal Mind can not be perceived with a rational mind. it is eternal and contains all truth and reality that the rational mind just can't comprehend
Each of the Great Masters taught that when we recognize and become one with Universal Mind we are one with Spirit
Each of the Great Masters taught that the God, the Divine, Universal Mind is in everything, including us. We find that connection when we search in silence
