Satan (the book)


Satan rules!!

I am reading the book, Satan. It's written by the son of the head of the Kabbalah Center. Very cool book, and it is so intertwined with the philosophy of life behind all the Eckhart Tolle books and even the Conversation With God books. I love it. I can't put it down. It has me laughing, crying, and truly appreciating this Universe we all live in at this present moment.

Satan is basically our ego. If we can suppress this guy, and come from love and not react, and be love for others, and share, and take the high road in our decision making opportunities, well then--we can and really have---defeated Satan.

Satan is our negative energy, our selfish decision, our reactionary ways.

Hell is living in a way that keeps this guy (ego) with us at all times. We can never be who we truly are with this satanic monkey on our back. To appreciate and pass his tests are simple and momentary. These tests appear all the time---in our thoughts, in the presentation of others' to our reality--- in the all actually, is where this trickster is, and laughing at him and subsequently defeating him, is a fairly easy thing to do. Just be love. Come from love. Think love. Sounds a little queasily cheesy but I think it's that simple.

No longer is Satan that horned, red-hued, cloven-footed monster living in an underworld called hell. He is a part of us, and all we need do is accept he is there, beat him at his game---daily---and all will be right with your life---and the current life you live. I like this. This learning and resonating with this stuff is so cool. I know it's not for everybody, for everybody is on their own present level of awareness, and that's all okay too. No judgement. No attachment. No resistance. These three things are the key.

I almost let Satan keep me from finishing my first paper for school. I panicked when I couldn't properly work a downloaded program that helps one write in APA style. Then I took a deep breath, stopped reacting, and all went better than well.

Believe in this process. God, the Universe, the Source, the All, the Alpha and the Omega, the pure energy of light and love---whatever you want to call it, it's out there, and better yet---it's IN there too; in us.

Keep on keepin' on Satan. I'm up for the game.

Your move.

Peace

Kevin
