Resurrection and Beyond

There is a saying:

"The sun always rises"
and we know this to be true,
but our knowledge is based in
the experience of seeing a sunrise -
Experiencing it each day
since our kind came into being.

We have attributed it to many beliefs:
The loving compassion of a higher Source,
Science and astronomy,
Magic
or many we have simply taken it for granted.
But yes, it does return.

The ancient Egyptians believed that each evening,
the depleted Ra entered into a journey
of death and resurrection.
During this twelve hour quest,
Ra was subjected to numerous challenges.
This nightly journey cleaned and renewed
So that once again,
Ra emerged whole and vibrant,
radiant in the new dawn.

In the Jesus way, the journey was one of
recognizing Source from within.
"I am the way, truth, and life"
It was not an arrogant boast,
but the simple recognition of his True Self.

May this Resurrection Day
bring us also into this awareness
of our True Selves.
We pass through the realms
cleansing and renewal
and emerge once again filled with life -
brilliant and radiant.

As you are Light,
so let your light shine!

Blessings,
Karen
