So, how’s the weather today on yours?

Yup, that’s right, like it or not you are living as the single inhabitant, a castaway, on your very own Fantasy Island. It’s a gift from Adam. He was the first castaway – the first with a duality problem and he passed it on to you.

Your island is an illusion. It’s not real but you’re stuck on it. Don’t believe me? Well then …

Meet Bob and Dave. They just met each other for the first time – had a long conversation over lunch discussing a business proposition. Dave came away thinking Bob really liked him and his ideas. Bob came away thinking Dave really liked him and his ideas. So, they each spent the next week of their lives preparing to do business with each other.

The truth? Well it wasn’t what you just read. Each thought the other was strange but a good target for an easy sell. Each of them thought they had done a good job of hiding their true intentions towards the other but they hadn’t. Each wasted the next week of their lives because of the fantasy that existed only in their minds.

See how it works? In every interaction we have with other human beings the boogeyman is there, urging us to hide and at the same time to manipulate to gain an advantage, telling us to watch out for stuff that doesn’t exist.

But that’s not the worst part.

The boogeyman tells you things about God. He wants to keep you on your island, separated in your own mind’s fantasy from the One that’s right there, in you, through you, all around you, giving you life and breath and being.

 

He tells you God is far away in His own place, watching but unconcerned.

He tells you God doesn’t care.

He tells you God can be manipulated.

He tells you God is not there.

He tells you that YOU are God.

 

So, how are you going do it? Get off the island? Get the boogeyman out of your head? Return to reality, to goodness, harmony, peace, beauty, wholeness, and unity? How?

There is hope my friend – yes indeed!
