MYSTERY from a photo

MYSTERY    The web defines mystery as something difficult to understand or to explain.
Let me present a photo which for me represents two such mystery.


COSMIC BEAUTY/MYSTERY
First, the halo.  True, the halo is quite common around the sun or the moon. And it is formed  by crystals in high cirrus clouds. However, I cannot explain how these crystals form a perfect circle....first mystery for me.

Second, the photo. (not edited)   When I tried to take the picture of the halo, the sun blinding my eyes and not able to see it on my LCD monitor/viewer, I was not expecting to see much except maybe a blue sky. To my amazement the photo turned out perfect. The halo is showing perfectly well and the tree is smack in the middle where not expected. It is as if something or someone intervened to create a perfect beauty...second mystery for me....also a GOD/SPIRIT MOMENT!! A flow of the UNIVERSAL LOVE...

I salute the MYSTERY within everyone and the mystery in all of nature....lucy matthews

DEATH

DEATH         Most people are afraid of even the word.   Yet, death means new life, free life , free of pain, worries, anxieties... new birth. The Buddhists recommend visiting morgues so as to realize the brevity of life here on earth and the importance of living well.  Christians and, I think that all spiritual people, urge us to reflect on that same truth. EVEN DEATH IS NOT TO BE FEARED BY ONE WHO HAS LIVED WISELY.   Buddha DO NOT FEAR FOR I AM WITH YOU , DO NOT BE DISMAYED FOR I AM YOUR GOD.  I WILL STRENGTHEN YOU.    Is 41:10 WHETHER WE LIVE OR DIE, WE ARE THE LORD'S.     Rom 14:8 DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY.    1 Cor 15:54 THE GRAVE IS ONLY A CURTAIN FOR THE PARADISE BEHIND.   Rumi LIFE AND DEATH ARE ONE, EVEN AS THE RIVER AND THE SEA ARE ONE.  K Gibran DEATH IS THE TRANSITION TO UNITY WITH ULTIMATE REALITY.  Thomas Keating THE OPPOSITE OF DEATH IS BIRTH....

JESUS, THE CHRIST TRINITY Why is Jesus called Jesus Christ? because Jesus is fully human and fully divine (paradox). How does Jesus fit into the triune God? Perhaps we can best see that in Jesus'prayer: THAT THEY MAY BE ONE AS YOU AND I FATHER ARE ONE... Granted we know that God is beyond gender but the term Abba/Father implies love, so Jesus becomes HIS unique beloved Son and the love we feel in our heart, is the Holy Spirit. Now we have Trinity called by Christians. Hinduism, the oldest religion calls it by different names: SAT, CHIT, ANANDA. TRINITY is one, universal, inclusive and a powerful reality. We are invited to dance with the joyful relationship of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. SAT-CHIT-ANANDA, BEING-KNOWLEDGE-HAPPINESS, FATHER-SON-SPIRIT, TRUTH IS ONE AND UNIVERSAL.
