Creating a Human Web of Light
by SANDRA INGERMAN
When I was researching different spiritual teachings for Medicine
for the Earth I found the underlying principle of esoteric beliefs
is that all life is made of light. As human beings with egos we often
forget our true nature and we over identify with our personalities and
bodies. We are light in bodies.
Alchemists did not literally change lead into gold. Rather they transmuted
heavy leaded consciousness into gold light consciousness. Jesus in Matthew
5:30-20 challenges us not to hide our light under baskets. When mystics
all over the world perform their miracles of healing they are seen to
shine and become luminescent. Throughout Medicine for the Earth
I write about the importance of the concept of light in all spiritual
traditions.
We are light and we came here to shine. But most of us have forgotten
our true nature as well as why we came here. We were created from love
and light and we are love and light. It is our birthright to shine as
fully in the world as we can.
Many of us have been taught at an early age not to shine too bright. If
we shine too bright no one will love us. There can only be a few “stars”
and it is not you. Does this sound familiar?
Why can there only be a few stars here on earth? I have never heard anyone
say when looking up at the stars in the sky, “I wish that star wouldn’t
shine so brightly it is outshining other stars”. Why do we have
that belief here?
It is time for all us to shine our light, which will reflect back the
beauty of the night sky above us. We need to find our shine again so that
we can light up the dark places of the world.
