Atum

When life breaks you, it is because you are ready to be put back together differently.
Every piece of you that feels shattered is a piece that will find a new place, a new purpose, a new meaning. Trust that the cracks are where the light gets in.
And sometimes, in our brokenness, we find our greatest wholeness.
We find the courage to rebuild, to reimagine, to redefine what it means to be strong.
You are not broken; you are breaking through ..

When the Buddha declares there is escape from sorrow, the escape is Nirvana, which is not a place, like heaven, but a psychological state of mind in which you are released from desire and fear. And your life becomes harmonious, centered and affirmative. Even with suffering.

The Buddhists speak of the bodhisattva - the one who knows immortality, yet voluntarily enters into the field of the fragmentation of time and participates willingly and joyfully in the sorrows of the world.

“The person who is in tune with the Universe becomes like a radio receiver, through which the voice of the Universe is transmitted.”

18 things Jesus did NOT Say:

“For God was so disgusted with the world that he demanded my blood to fix it.”

“I have come to bring you a new religion.”

“By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have correct theology.”

“If anyone would come after me, let him disparage all other religions and their followers.”

“If you love me, you will submit to the men who are in positions of authority in your church.”

“Blessed are the tithers for they shall be called the children of God.”

“Thy kingdom come, thy will be done in Heaven after the earth goes up in flames and is destroyed.”

“You have heard it said, ‘Love your neighbor,’ which means the people with whom you attend church and relate to in your Christian sub-culture.”

“In my Father’s house there are many rooms, but twice as many in hell for countless people who will meet their fate of eternal conscious torment.”

“And you will know the truth and the truth will make you superior to all the other simpletons who never learned Greek or Hebrew.”

“Pray without ceasing because you are incapable, inadequate and powerless to affect change apart from divine intervention.”

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you a checklist of things to do and not do in order to remain in God’s favor.”

“He appeared to his disciples over a period of 40 days and spoke about how to incorporate his life and teaching as a 501(c)3, and go into all the earth to build megachurches in his name.”

“For the greatest commandment is this - that you ‘hate the sin and love the sinner’, which means judging, shaming and shunning them until they repent.”

“If you want to be my disciple, pick up your cross and die to your needs, desires, individuality, and humanity.”

"After three days I will rise again, go then into the world and Christianize all the nations - baptize them, Westernize them, stamp out all the godless people to the glory of God."

"The way forward is this question - "What would Jesus do?" - but remember you can't truly do this because I am God and you are you."

- Jim Palmer
