Liberation by Grace through Faith

The doctrine of salvation by grace through faith is well known in Christian circles. But the principle’s real power is found when it is applied, not to doctrines but to Unitive awareness or Nondual Awareness. The Protestant principle is true after all, but applied to Reality and not to ideas. You can call it salvation or eternal life. Other spiritual traditions call it enlightenment or awakening. The Christ called it the Kingdom of God. The Buddha called it nirvana. Zen calls it satori. Here I am calling it liberation, which is a term used in both the East and the West. Salvation or liberation is awakening to our essential unity with Nondual Reality. This Liberation is by grace through faith. Liberation is by grace. That means that there is nothing that we can do to be liberated. There is nothing we can do to facilitate spiritual awakening. It is by faith, which is spiritually seeing what is physically invisible. Faith is trusting spiritual sight. All of us have it. It is a free gift to all. It is just a matter of recognizing it, and using it and trusting it. Instead we tend to ignore it. That is why the ordinary human state is called ignorance as well as blindness. What all spiritual seekers hope for – spiritual liberation, awakening, enlightenment, which is a word which is about seeing the light – is right before our eyes. All we need to do is open our spiritual eyes and trust what we see. That is liberation by grace through faith.   View Marshall's books here:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
