Paradise...

Paradise is not a place, It is a "State of Existence".. It is not the existence
of the body or mind.. It is the "State of Unconditional Love".. Unconditional
Love is "Unselfishness".. The unself, the non-self, the non-ego, the
non-separation.. The Reality called God.. If God is Unconditional Love then,
God's Will must be that We Realize that We Too are Unconditional Love.. When the
thief on the cross next to Jesus, told the other thief to be quiet, as Jesus did
nothing wrong and is being crucified as they are,, the thief was speaking from
the thoughts of non-ego or what we call Love.. this is why Jesus said that the
thief would be with Him in Paradise , this day.. because Love is Paradise.. If
Love was practiced within all humans, then , the world would appear to be
Paradise.. but, this would be just a small reflection of the True
Paradise.............namaste, thomas
