Be Who You Are.... >>The only demand that I am aware of made by the Divine is something like: "BE who you ARE". The "demands" made by Spiritual Masters are by way of assistance in that process.>> Wonderful! Traffic cops!! Are white gloves required? Or will black gloves work just fine?

So a "demand" isn't really a demand? Must every word require an esoteric sense? Is truth expressible only in koans? A "distortion" doesn't sound like a happy condition. To consider oneself a "distortion" of the divine seems a recipe for frustration. I think it is helpful to distinguish between a state of being and the process of becoming. If we focus on the state it's easy to get wrapped up in critical though about the state. The process simply is and flows through all states as it self-creates. To get wrapped up in thoughts and judgements about particular states is to analyze a single frame and lose sight of the movie of which it is but a flickering part.
