Swedenborgian Community Interfaith Podcast

The world strives to convince us of the necessity of how we often do things: with an anxious headiness and a desperate grasping, saying that one day all our striving and yearning might get us what we need to feel at ease and fulfilled. But this cause and effect doesn’t add up, as Jesus said, God’s yoke is light and easy. In actuality we are already fulfilled where we sit, no other cause is needed. Jesus served and serves as an embodiment of Divinity, the very thing that we are all called to by birthright, asking us to turn away from our distortive thinking. Unfortunately, with our adopted sense of division and false selfhood, we grasp at our minds’ illusions and yearnings, not realizing we are much greater than our picture of ourselves – meant to be aware of our oneness with the Father, with Jesus, with the Buddha, with each other, and they with us.
