A short Story about the Father and His Son

Imagine the Father, God the Creator.

And imagine His son, the Son of God.

The Father is the infinite One, the unlimited One:

Infinite Love, infinite Peace, infinite Joy.

And equally God created His Son.

Because He loves to share everything He is.

And He is everything that is!

And because God is perfect and complete, He also created a finite and limited world of impermanent forms.

His Son, out of curiosity, became very much attracted towards this world of finite and limited forms and desired to experience it.

And there is no wish that the Father wouldn`t fulfill for His Son.

Therefore He created the human being for His Son as a vehicle to explore the finite and limited world.

And the Son merged with it.

To experience fully to be finite and limited as a human being the Son necessarily decided to identify with a human being.

And in order to create very realistic impressions for His Son, the Father made this finite and limited world appear to be very similar to His own infinite and unlimited Existence:

He created an almost infinite and unlimited variety of human perceptions such as thoughts, feelings, bodies, touches, tasts, sounds and smells.

And on top of it, He added an infinite-like amount of other human beings.

As the Father knew His Son would completely identify with that creation, He thought to Himself: “Hmmm, My Son might be willing to come ouf of that experience one day. Then there should be an exit.”

Though His Son could never have changed what He really is as the Son of God, He could have identified with that finite and limited existence forever.

The exit was necessary because in order to identify completely with that world His Son needed to feel disconnected from His Father and what He really is. Therefore after experiencing the finite and limited world for some time, He would feel missing His Father`s infinite Love, Peace and Joy; though, of course, it was always there, but He had decided to forget all about the Father`s Presence when He had chosen to experience to be a limited human being.

As a human being the Son became a Father-like Creator as He invented a lots of science and technology and established a lots of rules, laws and systems to organize human lives.

But there was one thing, He could not invent as a limited human being: the Infinite.

As a limited human being – even as a very skillful, intelligent and educated one – He could invent only limited things.

In 2017 He had established democracy, financial systems, science, education, employment and technology; nevertheless, of course, He could not feel fulfilled by that!

Instead of sharing the Father`s infinite Love, infinite Peace and infinite Joy, He suffered misery in every form: loneliness, sadness, doubt and depression, anger, aversion, hate and fear, egoism, crime, violence and war, sickness and, after all, death.

And the little happiness He experienced once in a while was very fragile as it descended from the finite and limited things and beings around Him.

How could the happiness remain in a finite, limited world where there is no infinity and therefore no stability and safety?

No, it could never remain.

The Son would have been lost forever.

But, fortunately, there was that exit!

The Father had decided to remain present even in that finite and limited world.

Whatever the Son would experience as a human being the Father would remain as a silent witness so that in silent moments the Son could feel His presence.

The Son would just need to stop all mental, emotional and physical activity for a moment and to listen to His Father`s silent presence.

Or just a simple wish, prayer or a cry for help would, of course, be fulfilled by the Father who would implement some signs or hints in His Son`s human life in order to help Him remember His Father`s Presence. The Son would just need to be open to see it.

Imagine the Father would have placed this exit in your life.

And imagine this could happen to You in 2017.

Right here, right now.
