≈≈≈欢迎来到地球的每个小灵魂

  很久很久以前，有一个小灵魂，他对神说：“我知道我是谁了！”
  于是，神说：“那真是太好了，那么你是谁呢？”
  小灵魂大声的说：“我是光啊！”
  神大笑了起来，并大声的说：“没错！你就是光。”
  小灵魂觉得非常高兴，因为他为王国里所有还在寻找答案的灵魂找到了答案。“哇，这真是太好了！”
  但是很快地，小灵魂觉得知道自己是谁还不够，他的内心有一些激动，现在，他想“是”自己。于是，小灵魂来到神的身边，他说：“嘿，神！现在我已知道我是谁了，那么我可不可以是自己呢？”
  于是神说：“你的意思是，你想是‘已经是的你’吗？”
  “嗯，”小灵魂回答：“知道自己是谁是一回事：是真正的自己又是另一回事，我想感觉一下‘光’到底像什么！”
  “但是，你已经是光了。”神一边重复，一边又笑了起来。
  “没错，但是，我想知道那感觉像什么！”小灵魂大声的说著。
  “嗯，”神咯咯的笑着说，“我想我应该了解你的意思，你总是喜欢冒险。”然后，神的表情变了：“只是有一件事……”
  “什么事？”小灵魂问道。
  “嗯，除了光之外，什么都没有。你明白吗，除了你以外，我没有创造出任何东西；所以，没有什么简单的方法可以让你亲身体验你是谁，因为没有什么是你不是的。”
“哦？”小灵魂应了一声，他现在感到有点儿困惑了。
“这么想吧，”神说：“你就像是太阳中的一根蜡烛，你在那儿好好的，跟其他数不清的蜡烛组成了太阳。但若少了你，太阳就不是原来的太阳了。”
  “黑暗是什么呢？”小灵魂问。
  神回答说：“它就是你所不是的。”
  “我会怕黑暗吗？”小灵魂大声地说。
  “只有当你选择害怕时才会。”神回答说：“说真的，没有一样东西会让人害怕，除非你决定要如此，你明白吗？一切都由我们来决定，都由我们来取决的。”
  “喔。”小灵魂应了一声，觉得比较舒服了。
  然后，神解释，为了能体验每一件事情，所有事情的相反面便将呈现出来。“这是个很棒的礼物。”神说：“因为没有它，你就不能明了任何事了。”
  “没有冷，你就不能知道暖；没有下，就不能知道上；没有快，就不能知道慢；没有左，你就不能知道右；没有这儿，就不能知道那儿；没有现在，就不能知道未来。”
  “所以，”神总结地说：“当你被黑暗围绕时，就不要挥舞你的拳头，或提高音量去咒骂它。”
  “你宁可成为黑暗前的光，也不要对它生气。然后，你将知道你真正是谁，其他所有的灵魂也将知道。让你的光灿烂无比，以致没有一个灵魂不知道你是多么地特别！”
  “你是说，让其他的灵魂明白我是多么地特别是很好的吗？”小灵魂问。
  “当然！”神低声轻笑地说：“而且非常好！但是你要记住，‘特别’不意味著‘比较好’。每一个生命都是特别的，都有他们自己的特色！但是，很多的生命早已忘了这回事。只有当你明白，你的特别是不错时，他们才会明了，他们的特别是好的。”
  “喔，”小灵魂跳著舞、或崩乱跳·地大小起来说：“我可以像我想要的那样特别！”
  “是的，你可以从现在开始。”神说，他正陪著小灵魂一起跳著、舞著，并开怀大笑。“你想成为‘特别’的哪一个部分呢？”
  “‘特别’的哪一个部分?”小灵魂重复地说。“我不懂。”
  “嗯，”神解释说：“成为光就是一件特别的事情，‘特别’包含了很多的部分。和善是特别的、有风度是特别的、具有创造力是特别的、有耐心是特别的你可以想到变得特别的其他方法吗？”小灵魂静静地坐了一会儿，然后说：“我可以想到很多变得特别的方！”小灵魂提高音量说：“热心助人是特别的、与人分享是特别的、友好是特别的、善解人意是特别的！”
  “没错！”什同意地说：“那些事情你全都可以去做，或者，你也可以在任何时刻，做任何你希望成为的特别的那个部分。这就是成为光的意思。”
  “我知道我想成为什么了，我只到我想成为什么了！”小灵魂兴奋无比地说：“我想成为‘特别’的部分，叫做‘宽恕’。宽恕难道不特别吗？”
  “喔，没错。”神向小灵魂保证：“那是非常特别的。”
  “好，”小灵魂说：“那就是我想成为的。我想学著宽恕别人，我想亲身体验那种感觉。”
  “很好，”神说：“但是，有一件事情，你应该知道。”
  小灵魂现在变得有点儿不耐烦起来。事情总是比看起来的样子复杂一些。“是什么事情呢？”小灵魂叹了一口气。
  “没有人是要别宽恕的。”
  “没有人？”小灵魂几乎不能相信他所听到的话。
  “没有人！”神重复地说。“我做的所有事物都是完美的。在所有创造物中，没有哪一个灵魂比你来得不完美。看看你的身旁。”
  然后，小灵魂发现，一大群灵魂已经聚了过来。他们从王国的四面八方长途跋涉来到这里，就是为了小灵魂与神的这场精彩对话，每个人都想听听他们在说什么。
  看到不计其数、聚在那里的灵魂后，小灵魂必须同意神的话。没有人比小灵魂还不精彩、还不高贵，或是还不完美。
小灵魂对聚在身旁的灵魂感到万分讶异，他们的光多么亮哪，以至于他几乎不能直视他们。
“那么，有谁是要被宽恕的呢？”神问。
“哎呀，这样下去一点儿也不好玩！”小灵魂埋怨地说：“我想亲身体验做一个宽恕别人的人的感觉；我想知道特别的那个部分的感觉像是什么？”
这时，小灵魂体忍到有一种感觉，他想那一定就是悲伤了。
  但是过了没多久，友善的灵魂从人群中直直地走了出来。“小灵魂，不要担心，”友善的灵魂说：“我可以帮助你。”
  “是吗？”小灵魂的心情开朗了起来。“但是你可以做什么呢？”
  “为什么这么问呢，我可以给你一个要被宽恕的人啊！”
  “你可以吗？”
“当然可以！”友善的灵魂轻快地说：“我可以进到你下一个生命期当中，为你做一些要被宽恕的事情。”
“但是，为什么呢？为什么你要那么做呢？”小灵魂问。“你，是一个那么高尚完美的生命！你，振动得那么快速，快到可以创造出明亮的光，让我几乎不能直视你。是什么力量，使你想把你振动的速度放慢到你的光变得黑沉沉的？是什么力量，让如此一个轻快到可以随心所欲在星星上跳舞、在王国里四处穿梭的你，来到我的生命当中，并使你自己变得如此沉重，好可以去做这么糟糕的事情呢？”
“很简，”友善的灵魂说：“我可以这么做，因为我爱你。”
  小灵魂似乎对这个回答感到非常惊讶。
  “不要那么吃惊嘛，”友善灵魂说：“你曾为我做了同样的事情，不记得了吗？你跟我，我们一起跳舞很多次了。我们一起跳舞了好几个年代，穿越时空，我们无时无地不在一起游玩，只是你不记得了。”
“我们两个一股脑儿地跳，一上一下地跳，一左一右地跳；我们这儿跳跳，那儿跳跳；我们一个是男，一个是女；一个良善，一个邪恶——我们两个，一个是受害者，一个是加害者。
“因此，你跟我，过去有好几次在一起。彼此都给过对方完美适当的机会，去表达、体验我们真正是谁。”
“因此，”友善的灵魂又进一步地解释：“我将进入你的下一个生命期当中，这一次，我要去当一个‘坏人’。我将做出真正可怕的事情，然后，你就可以亲身体验做一个宽恕别人的人的感觉了。”
“但是，你将做出什么事情呢？”小灵魂有点儿紧张地问：“有那么可怕吗？”
“喔，”友善的灵魂眼睛闪闪发光地回答：“我们会想出办法的。”
  然后，友善的灵魂似乎变得严肃起来，并冷静地说：“你知道，有件事情你是对的。”
  “是什么事情啊？”小灵魂想要知道。
  “我将放慢自己振动的速度，让自己变得非常沉重，沉重到可以去做这件不好的事情；我必须假扮成不像自己的样子。然后，我只请求你回头帮我一个忙。”
  “喔，什么忙都可以！什么忙都可以！”小灵魂大声喊著，同时又跳又唱了起来。“我要去宽恕别人，我要去宽恕别人！”然后，小灵魂看到友善的灵魂整个人都沉默了下来。
  “是什么忙呢？”小灵魂问道：“我可以为你做些什么吗？你是一个这么愿意为我付出的天使！”
  “当然，友善的灵魂本是一个天使啊！”神打岔的说：“每一个人都是！你要永远记得：我派遣给你的都是天使。”
  所以，小灵魂更加愿意答应友善领会的请求：“我可以为你做什么呢？”他又问了一次。
  “当我攻击你、打你的时候，”友善的灵魂回答：“当我对你做了你可能像想得到的最糟糕的事情时——就在那个非常的时刻里……”
  “嗯？”小灵魂打岔的说：“然后呢……？”
  友善的灵魂变得更加沉默了。
  “请记得我们真正是谁。”
  “喔，我会的。”小灵魂大喊著：“我答应！我会永远记得：我就是在这个地方、这个时候看到你的！”
  “很好，”友善的灵魂说：“因为，你知道，我必须辛苦地假装，好忘了自己是谁。如果你不记得我真正是谁的话，而我自己可能也会有很长一段时间不能记得。如果我忘了我是谁，你可能也会忘了你是谁，我们两个都迷失了方向。然后，我们需要另一个灵魂来到我们身旁，提醒我们两个，我们是谁。”
  “不，我们不会忘记的！”小灵魂再一次承诺：“我会记得你的！我将谢谢你带给我这个礼物——这个亲身体验我是谁的机会。”
  所以，协议达成了。小灵魂进到一个新的生命期当中，并兴奋地成为“特别”的那个叫做——“宽恕”的部分。
  小灵魂不安地等待能够亲身经历所谓的“宽恕”，并感谢让这件事成为可能的其他灵魂所做的一切。
  于是，在那个新的生命期的每一个时刻里，每当一个新的灵魂出现在舞台上，不管那个新的灵魂带来的是欢乐，还是悲伤——特别是，如果他带来的是背上的话——小灵魂就会想起神曾经说过的话。

  “你要永远记得，”神微笑地说：“我派遣给你的都是天使。”
The Little Soul

ONCE UPON NO TIME, there was a Little Soul who said to God,
"I know who I am!"
And God said, "That's wonderful! Who are you?"
And the Little Soul shouted, "I'm the Light!"
God smiled a big smile. "That's right!"
God exclaimed. "You are the Light."
The Little Soul was so happy, for it had figured out what all the souls in the Kingdom were there to figure out.

"Wow," said the Little Soul, "this is really cool!"
But soon, knowing who it was was not enough.

The Little Soul felt stirrings inside, and now wanted to be who it was. And so the Little Soul went back to God (which is not a bad idea for all souls who want to be Who They Really Are) and said,

"Hi, God! Now that I know Who I am, is it okay for me to be it?"
And God said, "You mean you want to be Who You Already Are?"
"Well," replied the Little Soul," it's one thing to know Who I Am, and another thing altogether to actually be it. I want to feel what it's like to be the Light!"
"But you already are the Light," God repeated, smiling again.
”Yes, but I want to see what that feels like!" cried the Little Soul.
"Well," said God with a chuckle, "I suppose I should have known. You always were the adventuresome one."

Then God's expression changed. "There's only one thing..."
"What?" asked the Little Soul.
"Well, there is nothing else but the Light. You see, I created nothing but what you are; and so, there is no easy way for you to experience yourself as Who You Are, since there is nothing that you are not."
"Huh?" said the Little Soul, who was now a little confused.
"Think of it this way," said God. "You are like a candle in the Sun. Oh, you're there all right. Along with a million, ka-gillion other candles who make up the Sun. And the sun would not be the Sun without you. Nay, it would be a sun without one of its candles...and that would not be the Sun at all; for it would not shine as brightly. Yet, how to know yourself as the Light when you are amidst the Light -that is the question."
"Well," the Little Soul perked up," you're God. Think of something!"
Once more God smiled. "I already have," God said. "Since you cannot see yourself as the Light when you are in the Light, we'll surround you with darkness."
"What's darkness?" the Little Soul asked.
God replied, "It is that which you are not."
"Will I be afraid of the dark?" cried the Little Soul.
"Only if you choose to be," God answered. "There is nothing, really, to be afraid of, unless you decide that there is. You see, we are making it all up. We are pretending."
"Oh," said the Little Soul, and felt better already.
Then God explained that, in order to experience anything at all, the exact opposite of it will appear." It is a great gift," God said," because without it, you could not know what anything is like.
"You could not know Warm without Cold, Up without Down, Fast without Slow.
You could not know Left without Right, Here without There, Now without Then.
"And so," God concluded, "when you are surrounded with darkness, do not shake your fist and raise your voice and curse the darkness.
"Rather be a Light unto the darkness, and don't be mad about it. Then you will know Who You Really Are, and all others will know, too. Let your Light so shine that everyone will know how special you are!"
"You mean it's okay to let others see how special I am?" asked the Little Soul.
"Of course!" God chuckled.

"It's very okay! But remember, 'special' does not Yet many others have forgotten that. They will see that it is okay for them to be special only when you see that it is okay for you to be special."
"Wow," said the Little Soul, dancing and skipping and laughing and jumping with joy. "I can be as special as I want to be!"
"Yes, and you can start right now," said God, who was dancing and skipping and laughing right along with the Little Soul. "What part of special do you want to be?"
"What part of special?" the Little Soul repeated. "I don't understand."
"Well," God explained," being the Light is being special, and being special has a lot of parts to it. It is special to be kind. It is special to be gentle. It is special to be creative. It is special to be patient.
Can you think of any other ways it is special to be?" The Little Soul sat quietly for a moment.
"I can think of lots of ways to be special!" the Little Soul then exclaimed.
"It is special to be helpful. It is special to be sharing. It is special to be friendly. It is special to be considerate of others!"
"Yes!" God agreed, "and you can be all of those things, or any part of special you wish to be, at any moment. That's what it means to be the Light."
"I know what I want to be, I know what I want to be!" the Little Soul announced with great excitement. "I want to be the part of special called 'forgiving'. Isn't it special to be forgiving?"
"Oh, yes," God assured the Little Soul. "That is very special."
"Okay," said the Little Soul. "That's what I want to be. I want to be forgiving. I want to experience myself as that."
"Good," said God, "but there's one thing you should know."
The Little Soul was becoming a bit impatient now. It always seemed as though there were some complication.
"What is it?" the Little Soul sighed.
"There is no one to forgive."
"No one?" The Little Soul could hardly believe what had been said.
"No one!" God repeated. "Everything I have made is perfect. There is not a single soul in all creation less perfect than you. Look around you."
It was then that the Little Soul realized a large crowd had gathered. Souls had come from far and wide--from all over the Kingdom--for the word had gone forth that the Little Soul was having this extraordinary conversation with God, and everyone wanted to hear what they were saying.
Looking at the countless other souls gathered there, the Little Soul had to agree. None appeared less wonderful, less magnificent, or less perfect than the Little Soul itself. Such was the wonder of the souls gathered around, and so bright was their Light, that the Little Soul could scarcely gaze upon them.
"Who, then, to forgive?" asked God.
"Boy, this is going to be no fun at all!" grumbled the Little Soul. "I wanted to experience myself as One Who Forgives. I wanted to know what that part of special felt like."
And the Little Soul learned what it must feel like to be sad.
But just then a Friendly Soul stepped forward from the crowd. "Not to worry, Little Soul," the Friendly Soul said, "I will help you."
"You will?" the Little Soul brightened. "But what can you do?"
"Why, I can give you someone to forgive!"
"You can?"
"Certainly!" chirped the Friendly Soul. "I can come into your next lifetime and do something for you to forgive."
"But why? Why would you do that?" the Little Soul asked.
"you, who are a Being of such utter perfection! You, who vibrate with such a speed that it creates a Light so bright that I can hardly gaze upon you! What could cause you to want to slow down your vibration to such a speed that your bright Light would become dark and dense? What could cause you--who are so light that you dance upon the stars and move through the Kingdom with the speed of your thought--to come into my life and make yourself so heavy that you could do this bad thing?"
"Simple," the Friendly Soul said. "I would do it because I love you."
The Little Soul seemed surprised at the answer.
"Don't be so amazed," said the Friendly Soul, "you have done the same thing
for me. Don't you remember? Oh, we have danced together, you and I, many
times. Through the eons and across all the ages have we danced. Across all time and in many places have we played together. You just don't remember.
"We have both been All Of It. We have been the Up and the Down of it, the Left and the Right of it. We have been the Here and the Thereof it, the Now and the Then of it. We have been the male and the female, the good and the bad-we have both been the victim and the villain of it.
"Thus have we come together, you and I, many times before; each bringing to
the other the exact and perfect opportunity to Express and to Experience Who
We Really Are.
And so," the Friendly Soul explained further, "I will come into your next
lifetime and be the 'bad one' this time. I will do something really
terrible, and then you can experience yourself as the One Who Forgives."
"But what will you do?" the Little Soul asked, just a little nervously,
"that will be so terrible?"
"Oh," replied the Friendly Soul with a twinkle, "we'll think of something."
Then the Friendly Soul seemed to turn serious, and said in a quiet voice,
"You are right about one thing, you know."
"What is that?" the Little Soul wanted to know.
"I will have to slow down my vibration and become very heavy to do this
not-so-nice thing. I will have to pretend to be something very unlike
myself. And so, I have but one favor to ask of you in return."
"Oh, anything, anything!" cried the Little Soul, and began to dance and
sing, "I get to be forgiving, I get to be forgiving!"
Then the Little Soul saw that the Friendly Soul was remaining very quiet.
"What is it?" the Little Soul asked. "What can I do for you? You are such an
angel to be willing to do this for me!"
"Of course this Friendly Soul is an angel!" God interrupted. "Everyone is!
Always remember: I have sent you nothing but angels."
And so the Little Soul wanted more than ever to grant the Friendly Soul's
request. "What can I do for you?" the Little Soul asked again.
"In the moment that I strike you and smite you," the Friendly Soul replied,
"in the moment that I do the worst to you that you could possible
imagine--in that very moment..."
"Yes?" the Little Soul interrupted, "yes...?"
"Remember Who I Really Am.
"Oh, I will!" cried the Little Soul, "I promise! I will always remember you
as I see you right here, right now!"
"Good," said the Friendly Soul, "because, you see, I will have been
pretending so hard, I will have forgotten myself. And if you do not remember
me as I really am, I may not be able to remember for a very long time. And
if I forget Who I Am, you may even forget Who You Are, and we will both be
lost. Then we will need another soul to come along and remind us both of Who
We Are."
"No, we won't!" the Little Soul promised again. "I will remember you! And I
will thank you for bringing me this gift--the chance to experience myself as
Who I Am."
And so, the agreement was made. And the Little Soul went forth into a new
lifetime, excited to be the Light, which was very special, and excited to be
that part of special called Forgiveness.
And the Little Soul waited anxiously to be able to experience itself as
Forgiveness, and to thank whatever other soul made it possible. And at all
the moments in that new lifetime, whenever a new soul appeared on the scene,     whether that new soul brought joy or sadness--and especially if it brought  sadness--  the Little Soul thought of what God had said.
"Always remember," God had smiled, "I have sent you nothing but angels."
