A Quote to Help when Facing Loneliness - (1899)

Introduction

I came across this excerpt and some time after reading it, its affect began to unfold, shifting something deep within. Like a relief or a "Oh God that is what it is all about" type of moment.

So based on that I decide to post it. As it was helpful to me it may be helpful to you.

I want to comment that many mistakes, many egos and much suffering have loneliness at their base. Lust for example is one such ego, where boredom and loneliness are bases or triggers.

The second paragraph of the excerpt has all the impact.


Excerpt

“The feeling of loneliness is one of the most terrible forms of suffering that human beings can experience. Each of us needs to find someone with whom we can share our thoughts, feelings, and aspirations, someone with whom we can exchange harmoniously every day. This ideal being is obviously very difficult to find, and many books have explained the pain, anguish and feeling of abandonment experienced by men and women when they are unable to find what some have called their soul mate!

But, in reality, the human soul can only be filled permanently and completely by God. If you wish to feel that you are not alone every day, that you are surrounded by beings who love and understand you, and that you yourself are filled with a great presence of joy and light, you must unite with God and his manifestations, which are wisdom, love and truth. For God himself is love, wisdom and truth. And for the person who places love in their heart, wisdom in their head, and truth in their will, solitude no longer exists.”

Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov

End (1899).
