COUNTLESS SPIRITUAL MASTERS from a variety of traditions and backgrounds assert that Unconditional Love is the very core of our being. From the comfort of a favorite chair or meditation cushion that can sound simple and obvious. But how do we keep this truth at the forefront of our awareness in daily life, when someone cuts us off in traffic? When the house is burning down? When suffering, sickness, tragedy and death are what we perceive on a daily basis? How do we move beyond our default habitual thought patterns based on fear and return to the infinite wisdom that we are the ones we've been waiting for? Lacking Nothing, Seeking Nothing serves as a signpost pointing to True North, reminding us again and again that in spite of what our sensory perception might tell us, we are actually nothing less than Unconditional Love. In his gentle yet firm manner, pulling no punches, the channeled energy of Ascended Master Djwhal Khul, The Tibetan, points to the truth over and over again -- the truth that what we perceive through the human senses is not Reality. Reality is Love. Love is Life. And Life is Timeless. Your True Identity is Timeless.
