Illusions : their usefulness, for they are opportunities to experiment
|
|
"People’s need to believe, not only in something but in someone, expresses itself in every imaginable way. When they are unwilling or unable to believe in God, they are driven to deify the man or woman they love, or a monarch, a head of state, an artist, a philosopher, a scholar, an athlete. You tell me I am exaggerating, that people do not go so far as to deify others. Very well then, if they pin all their hopes on one person and, depending on the case, depend on him for their joy, their happiness, the solution to all their material problems or the meaning in their life, what would you call it? Until one day, of course, they discover they have been deluding themselves.
Is it really so bad to live with illusions about other human beings? Oh no, it is often our illusions which enable us to live! Until people can understand that God, the Creator of all worlds, is the one Being they can count on absolutely, they conduct happy and unhappy experiments, thanks to which they learn." Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
