Try Giving Up Your Beliefs
EsaRa:
I have been feeling so disconnected lately. It is not what I would call depression, but just this yuck feeling that makes me want to be distant from people. It seems like no one believes like I do, and I feel really alone in my beliefs. Don’t tell me to go join some club or something– I tried that, and it just made me dislike people all the more.

Dear Questioning:
Well, you are really on track with one thing. Beliefs cause separation. No, we won’t tell you to do anything, you get to choose what you want to do. However, please allow us to assist you. First ask for us to be there with you, you are never alone. We will talk with you and if you allow us to, we will help you lay out what you do believe, and help you in seeing what really works for you, and what needs to be let go of. The letting go can be as easy or painful as you like, you get to choose.
We would suggest that you have no beliefs. Wow, what a concept. Nothing to believe, so therefore you just live, yes, live each moment with great expectation of love and anticipation, to see what will unfold before you.
We know this all sounds so foreign, and certainly not like what others are teaching. But we know from what we have observed that every belief that you have (remember beliefs are just thoughts that you have had over and over, until you gather them together and call them “a belief”) – anyway, all beliefs do is cause separation, between you and God, and between other expressions of God you think are people. Just think about that for a while. Sit with it. And see how many of your beliefs make you feel different or separate from others.
We propose that you let go of all beliefs and KNOW that you are one with the great creative force that is All That Is, and KNOW that you are one with all other expressions of that force. You see, we do not even like to use the word “God” as that causes you to come up with all kinds of ideas someone else has told you that God is. We are about stamping out all thinking that is dualistic in nature.
Dualism is that belief that you and the creative force energy, All That Is, are separate in any fashion. That just is not so. IF you go the knowing of who you are, then you will have no beliefs. You do not need them. Okay, so we are really getting bold here– but just try having one day with no beliefs. Ask us, and every time a belief comes up, we will help you see how it works in the scheme of dualistic thinking. It may be true that for a while you seek no other human companionship, physical presence of another, yet once you let your walls of belief down, you will begin to feel your connections with others. Then you can step out on the road and know that you are not alone, and revel in the delight of being one with everyone and everything.
We know you like cats, so how about starting with them? Try being one with them. Then go outside and be one with other animals, plants, and grow to love people again. Although we do not like process or step thinking, we know that for you it will take baby steps. That’s okay. There is no time, so you have plenty of it!!!! We are with you little one.
We are incomplete without your being,
