I was told the origin of the word sin in ancient Greek is to miss the mark. So what—take another shot then. Yet, the Judeo-Christian belief is not wrong to insist that an atonement is necessary before we take better aim. The same institution that made us miss the mark beats us up afterwards over it. Only in the moment of “at-one-ment” we leave all of the heavy past behind.
What’s the solution to jump off the merry-go-round? Simple, become aware of the force that makes us miss the mark and be one with it when it occurs. The illusion has no chance to get the better of us when we are at one with what is, even if we once perceived this force as our own nature. A friend yesterday talked about her old self and her new self. In At-One-Ment there is no self.
