Our life comes from the Supreme
Why are we supposed to approach the origin of supreme power? Because it has given us life. So, He must be more alive than me, because He has given life not only to me, but to all of us. He is therefore the Supreme life-force. We all have life-force, because as soon we do not have life-force in our body, the body becomes useless. It can be burned or put into a grave. The life-force is really important. The life-force within us is the soul but now we are talking about the Supreme life-force. We are talking about the one who has given the life-force to each and everyone of us and who has impregnated us into the womb of material energy and supplied us with our respective bodies and subtle bodies as well. We are all individual spiritual units living a conditioned existence under certain physical, mental, and intellectual circumstances, which were produced by our previous activities.
We have the father, who impregnated the conscious units (meaning us) into matter. He is the same father for all of us. Not that each one of us has his own father. Physically we do, but spiritually we don’t have different fathers. We all have the same Supreme Father and therefore we are brothers and sisters and the proposal, that we are here to learn how to love each other, is a very good proposal. It is a very decent proposal.
Now, to have a positive relationship, each one of us patting the other on the back and saying, dear brother, dear sister... this is not enough. There is something more. Even by hugging each other we still do not get the pleasure our heart is longing for. Otherwise any happy married couple would say: we do not need anything more, we are happy, we are married, we love each other, and we have reached the perfection of our existence with our marriage. But no married couple ever reports such a thing. On the contrary, what they report is that it is very hard to sustain the relationship. (see CD9-10)
