Do Not Forget Your Purpose

We ultimately have one purpose: to seek truth.
We are humanity; we are war, love, hatred, peace. We have had every joy, we have gone through every suffering together. Look at Jesus on the cross; you can see his humanity, it is the perfect image of humanity. You say he was not human, but divine? Well no one was more fully human. No one delved into the joy and the suffering more than him, and that is what he did for truth. Can't you see the bones under his skin, and the blood on his hands? 
It if our purpose; to love truth so much that we would die for it. You have to love it to seek it, and then you will eventually know it. It is a wonderful thing to live and acknowledge all of existence, to never lie to yourself or anyone. It is harmony, it is the way it really is. If you forget your purpose you are in discord with the truth, you are dead to life.

Don't You Ever Forget

You are not seeking the truth unless you are willing to see all of it, the bad and the good, and make the two one.
You have to be willing to accept your own mortality, look at your fears unashamed, and notice that your mind hides these fears under the guise of pleasure. 
Spiritual seekers say things like "all is one" and "we are all equal". This is true, but it is deceiving because you cannot just stop at what makes you happy. 
You have to dig deep down and really be honest with yourself. See how all of your ideas are just something you hold onto because you do not want to come face to face with truth. 
The Truth is something that you can only understand when you are in touch with that frightened self in you, the one that stands in shivering awe of the universe. 
And then when you are finally in touch with that child in you, you can see how your mind works to block the truth because you are afraid. 
When the truth is blocked you are not in touch with life, it is your own delusion you are in touch with. 
Truth before life, don't you ever forget.
