Living on this planet is like going to a university:
"The University of Life"
Introduction of the
Hypothesis:
In this
University everyone, irrespective of age, sex, color, and place
of birth or residence, is both a student and a teacher, and all
Earth's natural resources are the University's supporting staff.
God is the founder and the Master or the “ President” of the
University of Life.
The University of Life is established for us to learn
important lessons. We learn that each of us is a unique and
beautiful manifestation or face of God; that each of us is
playing a very important role in His drama of creation.
Life's important lesson is to teach me to recognize myself as
one with everyone, with everything, and with God. I begin to
consider everyone as my brother or sister, and every plant,
insect, and animal as my cousin.
When we learn this lesson - that we are all simply different
faces of the same One, and learn to drop all ideas of
separateness, we graduate from this University and need not come
back to it any longer, except maybe as “Visiting professors"
These teachers come as prophets, saints, or sages to help the
students study more effectively in this University.
In the University of Life I accept every event as part of my
learning process, and every person in my life as a teacher. I
accept the way everyone is learning his own lessons, too. If I
find that I can help my fellow students and myself learn our
lessons more effectively, I will do so, yet always with total
love for them and myself. This way, perhaps we can all graduate
sooner from THE UNIVERSITY OF LIFE.
In the University of Life, where everyone is working for the
final Degree of High God Awareness (or HGA), one can learn his
or her
lessons in several ways. Some choose to learn them haphazardly,
while others follow the “tips” and directions given to them.
These are provided by the University Master through the visiting
professors. These special teachers are those sent by Him to this
University on special assignments.
