Would you say that Eden is an ancestral memory, or a future longing?

I believe that the Garden of Eden is an image that floats in the Collective Consciousness.

When this happens, we can think of it as a memory.

It is the most obvious, isn't it?

The Concept of one mind is common in spirituality.

And, if there is only one mind, we can all share memories.

This could also explain any memories we have from past lives.

If anyone knows how a Database works, you can understand what I mean.

In a Database, information is stored in tables.

Let's suppose there is a table called memories.

Any experience of any being at any time is stored there. A billion years ago and today.

Every experience of every being is recorded in that infinite table.

Each being has a unique Identity.

Thus, I have an Identifier, let's say 1279987344877211234448831889000987771.

When I access the memories, I actually access that table and look up all the memories that were stored with that code, which is mine.

And you'll do it with your own code.

But, let's imagine that there's an error and when I do my search, I access certain memories that were stored incorrectly.

Maybe the Identifier was not stored correctly, or there is such a similarity, that some of the memories are crossed.

When I access my memories, some from another Identity may slip in.

Perhaps an Identity that was born 300 years ago.

When we design a table in a Database, the Identifier is that data that will never be repeated.

And that differentiates us. Important. It differentiates us unequivocally from the rest, and it is never repeated.

But, that doesn't mean that they can't fail sometime.

We continue.

I was saying that the image of Eden could be a memory, perhaps experienced by very many Identities, and that would allow that intrusive memory to creep into some minds throughout history.

Of course, how many beings could have inhabited Paradise? All of them would store memories of that place all the time.

Perhaps, though, it is not a memory.

Maybe it is a longing.

The one mind might know what step to take in order to eradicate suffering and become one mind again.

Those two goals are priorities for Her.

The first, to eradicate suffering, because it is always She who experiences it.

Suffering is a terrible experience lived infinite times at every instant.

Because every being that dies is She.

Do you know how many beings die in a single instant?

How many agonize until they die?

How many animals, plants, fungi, bacteria...?

It is always She and that experience is repeated every instant, without exception.

Moreover, She predates and She suffers predation.

And, as it is always She, it is She who devours Herself.

The second point is because She has multiple experiences in beings who believe themselves to be someone separate from the rest.

She desires to be one again.

If you want to know why I affirm that She wishes to become one again, you can read my book I Believe a God, or browse through the articles on this website.

If She desires to be one again and She is every mind, don't you think that longing could manifest as an intrusive thought?

Her Will is what we call the Divine Will.

That Will, that longing pushes us in the form of thoughts and emotions, in the form of unconscious behaviors, to achieve its goal.

Behaviors and emotions like grouping, empathy and compassion.

And thoughts like the image of Eden.

A place where no one eats anyone.

What do you think the one Mind desires above all else?

What do you think "God" desires?

Of course, first of all, it desires and needs to stop suffering.

We suffer because we attack each other, constantly.

We do it because we don't know that we are one. We don't feel that we are one.

If we could feel it, we could not devour ourselves.

We would not attack or kill each other.

On the contrary, we would take care of each other and live together in peace.

And what is the Garden of Eden?

The image of that longing.

Therefore, isn't Eden the representation of the Divine Will?

It desires and longs for peace.

How could she not long for it?

She would never attack herself.

Eden will always be the great longing of life and today, at last, we can realize it.
