Life Purpose
"What Else Is There"
By Scott Andrews, Founder  

 

 

 

"Thanks so much for creating this wonderful website that makes our life better!" - S. Lin  (Hong Kong)  

 

   
 

What Else Is There?

I recently talked on the telephone with my friend, Alexandra, a healer and spiritual guide, who shared some wisdom she discovered while reading A Course In Miracles that she said has "changed her life!"

 
 
Although I was still in bed, groggy, and not really in the mood to get deep, I sat up and decided to listen anyway and said, "do tell!"
 
 
Alexandra replied with something like this: "Well, I was talking to God and asking God what all this thing called 'life' is about. God replied, 'you really want to know?' I said, 'yes, I really want to know.' God said, 'okay, I'll tell you. If you look at where all of this started, and wonder why all of this is what it is, it all goes back to when you asked the question, what else is there?'"
 
"WHAT ELSE IS THERE?" Hmm. I thought about this. 

EPIPHANY! That's also the moment when people always get on purpose - they ask a question like that. And, they either go into ego or they realize their folly and get back to spirit.

 
I interjected at this point. "Hmm. Maybe that's what the 'Adam and Eve' story from the book of Genesis in the Bible is all about. You know, maybe the Serpent is representative of the question. Once Eve asks the question, it's all downhill from there." Or, once humans ask that, we get into ego and out of spirit.

Alexandra continued. "Yes, I think you might be right. From there, I surmised I must change my perspective. It all made sense and just falls into what it is "supposed to be" now that I stopped asking the question, 'What else is there?'"

 
So then, perhaps a key is to recognize the moment we are dissatisfied and recognize in that moment and question whether we're coming from EGO, or SPIRIT?

I think I understand what she was talking about. Because, "What else is there?" is the question that comes from the ego, or the basis of HUMAN experience. And if you truly wish to go back to your SPIRITUAL core, you must go beneath that ego-human experience. "What else is there?" is what drives all people to be great while here on earth. It is also what leaves us feeling dissatisfied and feeling hopeless or less-than. Make the choice, each day... and see where it leads you.

Asking "What else is there?" can lead you to great deeds while living here on Earth.

Not asking "What else is there?" can lead you to being at peace and [being] one with your Spirit.

Both are important to know. Both may lead you where you want to go. The choice is yours.
