Holy Man

Who is this man?

This Holy Man? Who is he?

Jesus, Yeshua, Issa, Horus?

The man of many words is a man of many names.
Many names, but the same birthday.
But what does that change?

What if the names were just names to be a vessel for the timeless wisdom hidden within?

What if the stories are all true but not true at the same time?

What if it's all just a paradox, manifested inside the Creator's mind?

What if wisdom is the only truth, and the only truth is what we know to be true in our hearts?

What if Christ is a word that means love?

What if love is the only truth?

What then of religion?

What then of science?

What then of the world?

What if Christ is a word that means freedom?

Freedom from ignorance, pain, fear, guilt and shame?

What if Christ is a word that means forgiveness?

Have you forgiven yourself?

What if Christ is a word, inexplainable by any other word, but knowable if you look inward?

What if Christ is just one way to Inner Elevate?

What if all the ways can be the right ways when we cooperate, and celebrate, our differences, our perspectives, and our truths?

We're not all that different, me and you,

Just trying to get by, living in our own universe with a capital Y-O-U.

There are many routes to the same destination,

    but nothing gets you there quicker than your heart and your imagination.
