God can be a short-cut towards enlightenment

 The devil went down to Georgia

but he didn’t stick around;

this is God’s country!

Blake Shelton

 

I am not surprised that Buddha spent seven years in the jungle striving for enlightenment, whereas Jesus only needed 40 days in the desert. It is hard as a spiritual scientist to make it all the way across the finish line—there is always a belligerent voice screaming murder when the inner void approaches. 

 

The reader knows I try to keep righteousness and Bible thumping out of my writings but I will say this, God is a short-cut of sorts just as e and Pi in mathematics. There comes a time when we can just say, ‘You deal with these energies, I have decided not to bother, knowing You take care of them.’
