Opal Just Keeps On Trying


In our color work, the Opal Sphere is the sphere of cosmic truth.  To study the Opal Sphere is to look for ways that cosmic truth reflects itself in the realm of duality and relative truth.  Cosmic truth has nothing to which to compare itself.   Cosmic Truth is "isness."  It is beingness "without a why."  It's a little hard to find Cosmic Truth in this crazy world of ours.

From A Colorful Life we read:  The Opal Council's primary job is to blend all the spheres together by using a mixture of cosmic truth and relative truth as the glue. As the multicolored bubbles of truth permeate each sphere, they carry with them reflections of the truth of all the other spheres. This is the deep secret of the other side of the rainbow frequencies: Every sphere has all the information of every other sphere available to it.

I see the Opal Sphere TRYING to illuminate Cosmic Truth in so many areas of our life.  I wonder if we could bring some up for discussion.

I'll start by mentioning the "greeners"  (people who are trying to take the reins of our ecology) and conversely the "deniers."  Of course the most interesting aspect of the debate about global climate change and global pollution is that both sides end up using the same argument:  Armageddon.  One side says we humans are responsible for destroying our resources, killing thousands of species, melting our ice caps, and jeopardizing our children's and grand children's futures if we don't change right now - and by the way it may be too late.  The other says that we humans don't have the power or authority to destroy the planet, but God does, and he will soon, and Jesus will come and it will all be okay.  Of course those are the extreme ends of the argument.  I'm just saying that unfortunately the conversation focuses mostly on fear, guilt, shame, and ultimate damnation or redemption, depending on how much you believe in magical endings.

But if you listen carefully, mostly to yourself, but also to a precious few who dare to speak, you know that the real issue is not destruction, but re-structuring our use of energy.  The Cosmic Truth lies somewhere in our knowing that sustainable, renewable, efficient, non-polluting, non-toxic sources of energy are fully available free of charge from the Cosmic Energy Source.  The Opal Council tries tirelessly to get our attention and point us in that direction.  Can you hear them?
