7. The Awakened seeth not things, but seeth only the spirit My Mother, for no thing is outside Her, and all things are nothing save She.

8. The unawakened is she who seeth but fragments: who seeth the waves, but not the sea; who heareth the voice, but not the word; who seeth the light, but not the sun.

9. These fragments, contradictory, impossible, these are the severed substances of the world. How should the Awakened see these?

Gospel of Our Mother God; The Filianic Sutras:
Cry Marya Verses 7 - 9

Some of the language here is difficult. The use of the false archaic 'seeth' in place of 'sees' makes today's verses difficult to read. This can be seen in the use of 'heareth' as well. If we replace the with 'sees' and 'hears', these verses read much easier. Also, the femme-centric language is a little difficult for the masculine children of Déa, but let us put aside these problematic bits of language and look at the message behind them.

The verses speak of the "Awakened" and the "unawakened". Who are these persons? The "Awakened" person is they who perceive Déa in all places for their awareness is only of Her reflected in all places and things of the world. The "unawakened" are ignorant of this connection to Déa that is constant and ever present.

The unawakened sees the world but fails to see the spiritual connection between all things in the tapestry of existence. They are aware of Déa but in a partially blind way for the matters of the world cover as a veil the connection to Déa. Thus, one may see the waves upon the metaphorical sea and be unaware of the far larger body of water for their vision is limited.

The wash of seemingly contradictory and impossible to connect elements of the world can overwhelm us. It is possible to become so confused and overwhelmed by them that all seems chaos. For the Awakened, this chaos can interrupt their vision. Verse ten gives us the course of action the Awakened and unawakened should take to live with this confusion and chaos.

10. Cry: Mother, I know that I am one with Thee and all things are one in Thee.

Gospel of Our Mother God; Filianic Sutras:
Cry Marya, Verse 10

We are exhorted to cry out to Déa in our time of confusion and darkness. We are encouraged to reach out to Her and remember despite our difficulties seeing it that we are one with our Celestial Mother, as is the whole of existence. Let us take hope in these times from this fact. The world seems to be set upon a path unwholesome and dangerous. It is a dark wood that we travel through, but we are not alone for we are one with our Mother and she will guide us to clarity and our souls' true home.
