The past and future don't exist, but if you exist in the moment you will find THE PRESENT!

The First Man (adam = which literally means humanity as a whole/mankind) was formed from the dust of the earth. Dust in the scriptures is compared to lies, idolatry, imagination, death, ignorance... in fact "dust" is dead flesh, and according to the scriptures "dead flesh" IS ignorance. The story of the creation of ADAM is the perfect allegory for us... For we too have been created in very much the same way. Our parents came together and said "Let us make A CHILD in OUR IMAGE"... And then after birth they began forming us out their DUST (lies/ideas) of the earth (their understaning/seat of their soul) -- the perfect picture of ADAM (humanity) as a whole being FORMED and SHAPED and RESHAPED by LIES/DUST is our story. When we were born our parents named us, but that is not who we are. Our experiences led us to believe we are this or that, secure or insecure, happy or sad... but once again THAT is NOT who we truly are. That FIRST MAN -- is the person we have been tricked into believing is the REAL US... But that FIRST man ate from the wrong TREE, the instant he or she did, for ADAM is a plural word not speaking of an individual but of many ("God made THEM male and female and called THEM ADAM (plural)"). The instant he or she ate of that knowledge of good and evil, right or wrong, the TRUTH of who ADAM (humanity) truly is, dies (is hidden beneath the lies of who they have been brainwashed to believe they are. We have been programmed since birth to put our faith in the sensual world, our five senses, we have been programmed to believe the lies of religion, and what society, demands is acceptable... We truly are under the LAW (carnal/ignorant mankind loves to make laws and new laws are being made every day)... So ADAM is cast out of the Garden/Paradise, he/she now puts their faith in the outside world, begins living according to what he/she hears, sees, feels, smells, and tastes... he/she is tricked into focusing on the past or the future and the PRESENT of the MOMENT which contains true life is completely missed... which is why many in the world are in the state of misery we see today. So have we forgotten our true "I-dentity"? I say, yes! Isn't it time we wake up to the TRUTH! We are more than we have been told. Would love to hear thoughts on this... Also please enjoy this short video I did a couple of weeks ago on creation... I think you all will dig it. P.S. will someone please tell me the best way to reply to people, my first time on the boards here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdRFFeL0sEM&feature=player_embedded
