NO DOUBT THE WORLD WILL BE PARADISE BUT FOR THAT WE HAVE TO WORK HARD
In order for the God-self to gain hearing rights, the autopilot must be switched off, proffering an interruption in the stimulus-response sequence by inserting observation, a brief moment to consider the validity of said response such that the sequence now reads Stimulus-Observation-Response, or S-O- R. Observation gives the God-self the opportunity to utilize the mind towards its own ends. This is another way of looking at Viveka and its role in our sadhana. It is wisdom, when the Observer finds the Stimulus overwhelming to seek an adept in the path to regulate the response.
The ends of the ego are to perpetuate the myth that we are all separate organisms with independent and uncorrelated destinies. The ends of the God-self are to dissolve this myth and assert that we are all one. The God-self anchors decisions on love, i.e. the decisions which expresses most love for all. The ego anchors decisions on fear, i.e. which decision benefits personal well-being and/or those in close personal network and allays fear that perceived enemies can do harm.
