Enlightenment
Enlightment
By William Hodgetts
Apr 10, 2008

You have tried many doors in your search for enlightenment, all of which have lead to empty rooms and there are many more. Only one door will end your search. I have been through that door; are you ready to follow?

To say I have become enlightened is an understatement. To say it has brought me peace and happiness would be a lie. To look through the eyes of God is to look through the eyes of Truth and who can look on mankind’s condition and not see that they are walking blindly and willingly to a far greater suffering than they have ever known.

If you seek enlightenment, be careful what you wish for and know this, that although your spirit is free from materiality, you will not be able to leave other souls imprisoned. There are and have been, many who have claimed that they have achieved enlightenment but very few have ever achieved full enlightenment. Most who have claimed enlightenment have only seen a part of the Truth, they always try to fill in the gaps with their own logic and it always comes out tainted by their ego or self desires. You will not see in their eyes, the tears that come from the soul, only the smile of self contentment. You will not see their detachment from the material world, only their acquired wealth from selling what they claim is Truth. The truth is not a commodity to be sold; it doesn’t belong to one person to be sold for personal gain for it belongs to a higher power than mankind. There is and always has been only one Truth, though there are many claimed truths.

There are those who would say ‘That is your truth, here is the truth according to many others, all are different so how am I to know which one is the real truth?’ To those I would say; Life is a journey so ask first what is at the end of the path you have been asked to follow, for if you do not know your destination, how will you know if you are on the right path?

There are many paths but only one leads to Truth; it is the path of Love. The path of Love is the only path to Truth, it takes nothing of the material world as a price for passage; its guides seek nothing for themselves, their only profit is your gain and the rescue of another child of Love. Only Love is all that is good and right and in it there is only Truth, for Love seeks only Love and in Love there is no deceit. Love gained by deceit lasts only as long as the deceit and it is then taken back.

Love and its Truth are a treasure that is only safe with those who know its worth. If you would become enlightened, this is your first step out of the darkness. To the enlightened soul, all things are seen; all things are possible but be warned, enlightenment is not for material gain, its gifts are far greater.

What I have I offer freely, my reward is your enlightenment.

 




Author's Bio

My name is William, to say I have received enlightenment would be an understatement. I come from a poor background and I have no academic qualifications. However, my qualifications come from a lifetime of suffering through love for others; always putting myself last and others first. There were times when I questioned the path I was on, but I was driven by a stronger force than I could turn away from, it was Love. I spent a lifetime searching for answers. They were not in the world because the world has not changed. In 2004 I gave up my search and I lost faith in all but Love. I didn’t believe in a God or an afterlife any more, and yet I was resigned to live my life as I had always done. I then found a peace I had never known, my cup was empty and all knowledge gained in my search was worthless. Then it happened, it took only seconds, I was given the knowledge and understanding that contains all truth and the purpose of our lives. With it, your journey in life will not be wasted. My knowledge has not come from books, but directly from the Spirit of Love. It is the only place where truth is to be found. I claim no credit for the knowledge I now have, because it came from a greater teacher than I. I have been given the knowledge that will set your spirit free and through its understanding, you will know a peace that you have never known. This knowledge that I have, is of both this world and the spiritual world.
You will know the meaning and purpose of your life and creation. The mysteries of all things will be unfolded before you. I have been given a gift to share, a gift that will change your life and the world; it will touch the souls of those with Love.
