Sophia: You are not the body, and yet you are often very attached to it. You are not the body and yet you are often very attached to that of another. This is part of the human dilemma, but not one that can be solved analytically. Simply love all aspects of the body as you begin to relate more deeply to that which you call Spirit.
When two bodies relate brother to brother, seeing no difference, understanding that one is the mirror of the other, a calm takes over. War not against yourself, war not against another; understand that What I do to you, I do to myself. Then watch as peace reigns.
Separation is an illusion, and when you judge another and find them lacking, you have invested in the mirage. There is an oasis of peace that can be realized when you look into the eyes of another and see your Self.
Blessed are the peacemakers…
