Food for the Soul

Loneliness is experienced by the soul who has not learned how to turn within and find the Master. Being turned outward in one’s thoughts, one is often lonely in life. To assuage such loneliness, one attempts to make someone else his or her own. But sooner or later must come the realization that no one belongs to another. The sooner the soul begins to realize this, the better, for only when this realization becomes obvious does the soul actually begin the search for something eternal to which it can belong, and which belongs to it.

There is only one someone who is really ours forever and that is the Heavenly Father/Mother. They are the eternal substance of our being. Once we realize this, our true search for belonging begins. Once the soul begins its journey toward the Light of Illumination, the cosmic loneliness begins – the longing to merge with the High Self; the yearning for Self-illumination; the longing to merge with the High Self; the yearning for Self-illumination; the longing to return to the Source from which the soul descended to Earth in rebirth.
