The Most Important Commandment

Of all the commandments in all the world's religions that ever existed, 
the most important and actually the only commandment necessary for spiritual growth is

Love Thy God With All Your Heart.

 

However, if we think we can love God with all our heart because it is commanded of us, we are deeply mistaken. This love of God with all our heart will only be with all our heart and therefore worthy of God when it is a love given freely, given wholy without reservations or expectations.

If you truly appreciate how incredible is your very existence, how incredible is your awareness of being aware, then tears of thankfulness and happiness should be rolling down your cheeks as you are reading these words.

Truly appreciate your awareness of being aware and there is no room in your heart for hatred, bigotry, prejudice, jealously or greed. You will not intentionally hurt others. You will not steal from others. You will not have sex with another person's husband or wife. You may wish for more. You may try to get more of worldly things or worldly relationships. You may miss someone or some thing you have lost. However, truly appreciate the incredible miracle of your awareness of being aware and your heart will be filled with thankfulness.

You will Love God with all your heart, all your soul and all of your entire being. Each step you take and each act you make will be an act of praiseful worship. God is the source and the sustainer of your life.

We do not need ten commandments. We do not need two commandments. In fact, we do not even need one commandment. To be thankful because it is a commandment is not to be truly thankful. The thankfulness should be a natural automatic response to our true appreciation of the gift of life. I only say there is one because most spirit-humans seem to need a commandment. God cannot really command thankfulness and appreciation. It is in our heart or it is not in our heart. Thankfulness and appreciation either bubbles up from our innermost core of being or it is not true thankfulness.

All we need is true appreciation of how incredible is our very awareness of being aware. Without this awareness of being aware - nothing else would matter. Appreciate your awareness of being aware and you will know the meaning of paradise.

Truly appreciate your awareness of being aware and you will automatically Love Your God With All Your Heart.
