Remembering Source: Waking Up from the Play

The Invitation to Come Higher

There is a quiet invitation pulsing through life itself—a call to come up higher. At first, we may think this means rising above conflict, escaping difference, transcending the divisions that trouble our world. But the paradox is this: to rise higher, we must first go deeper. To ascend, we are called to descend into the depths of our shared origin.

Celebrating Difference, Healing Division

Our world overflows with differences. Colours, cultures, perspectives, and ideas paint a vibrant mosaic around us. Diversity is not a problem to be solved, but a beauty to be embraced. Yet, for all its richness, difference often becomes division. Opinions harden into conflict. Beliefs form walls. We rank one profession, one ideology, one culture above another. Beneath our celebration of diversity, a deeper wound persists: the illusion of separation.

The Forgetfulness of Our Origin

This illusion is rooted in forgetfulness.

From the moment we are born, life conditions us to believe we are separate. We are taught to pursue individuality, to seek success and self-definition, often in isolation from others. It is necessary, to an extent. To fully embody human life, we needed to forget where we came from. But now, as we mature, the invitation is to remember.

Remembering doesn’t negate difference; it reframes it. Beneath every variation, there is a single Source. One origin. One breath animating all.

Life as a Play

This life, in many ways, is a play.

Each of us steps onto the stage, takes up a role, and acts our part. We become the parent, the leader, the healer, the struggler, the survivor. But the play was never meant to trap us. We were meant to experience, learn, and then lay down the role, ready to move freely into the subsequent unfolding.

Yet, we forget. We hold onto the roles long after the scene has ended. Instead of closing the chapter, we create new acts—often more painful, more entangling than the last. What was meant to teach us becomes the identity we cling to.

But here’s the truth: the scene can end. The role can be released. We can awaken.

The Call to Remember

To remember is to return. To remember that beneath all roles and stories, you are of Source. So is everyone you meet.

What might life feel like if you remembered that today?

How might your responses change if you recognised yourself and others as actors sharing a stage?

The journey now is not toward another act, but toward awakening. Toward seeing life, difference, and yourself anew.

Let this moment be the invitation to remember, to awaken, and to journey differently.
