		<description><![CDATA[What is God's role in your happiness? Some folks thing God is out to thwart their happiness. Others think that unless one worships God in a certain way, there will be no happiness. I am here to say that God is happiness and making connection thereto is happiness.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-613" title="themeaningoflifeandcosmicconsciousness" src="http://themeaningoflifewithdrbob.com.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/themeaningoflifeandcosmicconsciousness.jpg" alt="The Meaning of Life and Cosmic Consciousness" width="600" height="70" /><em>Regarding the meaning of life and happiness</em>, C. S. Lewis said, &#8220;God can&#8217;t give us happiness and peace apart from himself because it is not there. There is no such thing.&#8221;</p>
<p>First, I think, we need to unpack the word &#8220;God.&#8221; Some of you reading this post will have no baggage to be carried around about the word &#8220;god.&#8221; However, others of you may have tremendous bags, loaded with all kinds of meaning: good, bad, indifferent.</p>
<p>Let me develop a singular definition of God for this post, so we are all on the same page at least for this post. God for me is the Cosmic, Universal Consciousness that is the Universe we live in. God is neither male nor female, does not make judgements, loves us all equally, supports and sustains life through unconditionally love. God&#8217;s main reason for bringing us into existence is that we might experience on God&#8217;s behave. God knows Itself through our experiences. For short, I&#8217;ll call God in this post, the Cosmic Consciousness.</p>
<p>Then, I can say that I believe that God can&#8217;t have us find happiness unless It, God, is involved. This doesn&#8217;t mean that the Cosmic Consciousness imposes Its will upon us. Rather, it means that the invitation to happiness is always open as we find our connection, our bond, with the Cosmic Consciousness. As C. S. Lewis put it, there is no such thing as happiness apart from the Cosmic Consciousness.<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-614" title="vibration" src="http://themeaningoflifewithdrbob.com.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/vibration.jpg" alt="Vibration" width="108" height="108" /></p>
<p>Why? Because the Universe is One harmonious entity. Happiness, after all, might be defined as being in complete harmony with oneself. Peace might be defined in precisely the same way – complete harmony within oneself. Complete Harmony is achieved when you resonate with the Cosmic Consciousness. Indeed, quantum physics shows us that all is vibration, literally. Some vibrations are at such a rate that we can see them. But we know there are other vibrations which we cannot see: infrared, x-ray, gamma ray, etc. Even the Earth, the planet upon which we live, have its own unique vibrational identity. To resonate with these frequencies is to set up or generate sympathetic vibes. To be in tune.</p>
<p>When God is defined as unconditional love, then when we would find unconditional love, know unconditional love, we will set ourselves to vibrating at the same frequencies as the Cosmic Consciousness. In other words, happiness is impossible without bond between the Cosmic Consciousness and yourself. This is not to arbitrary; this is not a demand with an &#8220;or else&#8221; attached to it. This is an invitation to join the on-going, everlasting party!</p>
<p>You can&#8217;t be happy unless you include the Cosmic Consciousness. You will be happy, now and always, when your voluntary bond with the Cosmic Consciousness is secured and steadfast from you side. The <strong>meaning of life which is to be happy</strong>, consists fully of sympathetic vibration with the Cosmic Consciousness.</p>
