So it came to pass that Ver Omesh was gripped by a great famine. So Markon went to the Prophet Articus and asked to go to the forest for food. The
prophet bade him be patient, for the Ori provide for all who have faith. But Markon did not believe. So the prophet drew a line in the sand and told him,
'step across and you may do as you wish.' So Markon did and left the village and feasted on wild berries.The fruit was bitter. It did not satisfy him. He
longed to return to the village, but found that the line had widened to a great chasm. He called out to the Prophet in fear, but the Prophet said, 'The line
has not changed; it is you who have changed. Step across if you truly believe' So Markon prayed for forgiveness and took the first step and the hands of
the Ori enveloped all those who welcomed him back.
Would you not choose the path to enlightenment?
|
Yes, it is a very good idea to choose the path of
enlightenment. If we receive all the
information that we possibly can about how to live the life the higher power
wishes for us to follow; we have a far greater opportunity for a fulfilling and
worthwhile life, that gives something back to the land, and the people. It is not enough to just take up space while
we exist on earth. Life has to have a
purpose, some meaning, and without spirituality, it is too easy to get caught
up in possessions, and trivial pursuits.
Every living thing has a purpose, and is part of something greater than
ourselves. We should all strive to find
our purpose, and to leave this place, far better then we were, when we came.
