Remember and Acknowledge
When you learn, you can repeat; when you Remember, you know; when you Recognize, you respond.
Learning is receiving a Form of knowledge.
Remembering is passing through it until finding the Truth that is no longer experienced as foreign.
Recognizing is discovering that this Truth also speaks of you, of your way of living, and of the responsibility that falls to you to embody.
The Remembrance is not personal memory. It does not consist of recovering a lost scene nor of acquiring a secret that elevates us above those who have not yet understood it.
The Remembrance happens when a Truth ceases to remain before us as information and begins to be known from Consciousness.
You can learn that all Life is related and continue using others as instruments.
You can explain Unity and continue despising difference.
You can pronounce Love while your works produce fear.
In those cases, the word reached the mind, but it has not yet passed through the Symbol.
Recognizing is allowing that which is Remembered to reach the womb, the will, the relationships, and the hands.
The Word is sweet in the mouth because it can be pronounced with ease. It becomes bitter in the womb when it demands renouncing the privilege, the lie, or the identity that contradicts it.
Naming the Kingdom is sweet.
Leaving the Throne is bitter.
Speaking of Service is sweet.
Surrendering without appropriating the fruit pierces the persona.
Proclaiming Unity is sweet.
Hearing the unrepeatable reality of the other prevents using that Unity to erase him.
The Remembrance says:
«This is Truth».
The Recognition responds:
«May this Truth find in me a corresponding Form».
Then the Incarnation begins.
The Remembrance opens the eyes.
The Recognition orients the will.
The Incarnation gives body.
And the fruit reveals whether that which we pronounced truly came to be in us.
WORD HEARD → CONTEMPLATION → REMEMBRANCE → RECOGNITION → INCARNATION → FRUIT.
We do not Remember to escape the world.
We Remember to return to it without continuing to reproduce that which we have already Recognized as a lie.
