Chapter 10, The Temple of ECK, pp 177-178 Tunnel, Light, and Love The woman was a hospice volunteer who worked with AIDS patient. She had studied under Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and had learned that many AIDS patient have the inner experience of a tunnel, the Light, and love. In ECK we want to add the Sound to this experience. The Light and Sound is the Voice of God. The Light takes us into the lower heavens, and the Sound lifts Soul beyond that, into the higher planes of pure Spirit. We would like to go as far as we can. We all know that AIDS has come to touch those outside the gay community. When the first cases turned, the condition was associated primarily with gay people. Certain preachers showed a lot of insensitivity, calling it God's curse upon these people, and so on. Those particular preachers certainly were not speaking for all Christians, since so many Christians do have compassion and understanding. But regardless, you don't lord it over someone in their time of illness or hardship. What's the point? Even if you believe it's God's punishment, then let God take care of it. God doesn't need his imperfect little human being given out their imperfect, distorted judgments that supposedly are God's.Yet this is how those on the fringes of Christianity so often react. They profess to speak for God, and they can't; they don't have love and they don't have compassion. And you can always recognize them. | ||||||||||||||||

Chapter 11, What Have I To Give? page 136-137 It Only Matters How You Love Many of us grew up under trict moral codes,both religious and societal. The moral code of the religions taught that love between people of the same sex was very wrong. But with the more open consciousness of today, we find that people of the same sex do love each other, and often more truly than do many people of the opposite sex. So we realize, finally, that love loves, without regard for human opinion and human laws. Different societies have different moral codes. In some societies there is an easier exchange, a greater choice of how and who to love. In others, there are very strict taboos about who not to love. We find that whenever a society imposes such rules or moral codes, they proclaims it the law of God; therefore,supposedly, it is for the betterment of the people.When you notice that people of certain societies that do not practice the standard, orthodox moral code appear to have more love than those who preach this code, you have to wonder. Could the love of God be something other than the moral code as expressed by any particular group? And if it is something else, then what is it? To me, it doesn't make any difference who a person loves. What should matter the most is how you love. True love does not hurt the loved; it's that simple. Yet in so many relationships that fall within the so-called high moral code, the people constantly hurt each other and consider it acceptable. Somehow, they feel they have the right abuse, harm, or do an injustice to their beloved. This is not so. | We Come as Eagles Mahanta Transcripts Book 9, by Harold Klemp, Copyright (c) Eckankar, 1994 | ||||||||||||||||
