Voices of Enlightenment: You Are Not The Body You're Living In!

We put so much emphasis on our physical identity - our "race" our "nationality" our "gender" and all of the physical attributes of the body that we are living in. Are we tall, short, fat, skinny? In many cultures around the world, the way we look can determine whether we are treated well or treated badly.  This is what creates division and conflict. It's time to raise our awareness an graduate to a new understanding of identity. You are NOT the body you're currently living in, you are the spark of light inside the body, the life force that animates the body, the consciousness that records all of the experiences you are having in that body.  Current advances in science and medical technology have enabled people to change the color of their skin, the texture of their hair, and even their gender. These are signs for us that the physical structure we are living in does not define who we are. So who are you? Today, some of our Voices of Enlightenment help us examine the rituals that reinforce the temporary identities such as race, culture, religion, nationality and gender so that we can truly be the all encompassing expression of Divine Consciousness that we are.
