“Human behavior flows from three main sources:
Desire, Emotion and Knowledge” – Plato
When the Divine becomes your desire…you become the desired Divine. And when the Beloved becomes your passion…you become the compassionate Beloved. And when the truth of the Sacred becomes the self…you become the true Sacred Self.

I love, love, love this quote…it makes my heart happy and full! I recently discovered this quote and thought that I would share it with you. Hmm…but now that I think about it…this quote would have made a great post for Valentines Day! Oh well…never do tomorrow what you can do today, right? Anyway, this quote is quickly becoming one of my favorites…hope it speaks to you and your Beloved self. Enjoy
“What ever we may say of (divine) LOVE is not it, but only about it”…
Love dominates the mystical life…“Your whole personality will be transformed, your countenance will radiate an inner beauty, and for as long as you feel it nothing will sadden you. A thousand miles would you run to speak with another whom you knew really felt it, and yet when you got there, find yourself speechless”
– Book of Privy Council
We have forgotten that there exists both a spiritual body and a physical body. The inner spiritual body, within all of mankind, is the one, universal soul from God. By acknowledging it’s presence, you symbolically set in motion the awakening, the restoring or the resurrection of the divine within.
The spiritual Divine self ,the Beloved, who gives it’s life to all of humanity…waits to be released or freed from under the strict confines (control and imprisonment) of the worldly self (aka…a false idol, second master, etc) Once liberated, the spiritual self is free to give all the gifts he has to offer. The freedom of the spiritual self can only pour out into the physical self. The Beloved self offers freedom from fear, pain and suffering. As well as the freedom to experience true joy, love and happiness even in the midst of their opposites.
Let that Divine identity rise to the forefront of your being. By doing this, you invite the inner Divine Beloved self to live in close union with the exterior self. When this happens, the way you “see” yourself is transformed and your divine soul/self/identity ascends to becoming your higher, original, true divine self…the one Beloved…from God’s very being. Know that you are created in his image and inherit his nature. How awesome is that?
