I was saddened to hear about the shootings and death of two African Americans, one in Minnesota and the other in Louisiana, which led to a nationwide protest and the shootings of police officers in Texas. It was a tragic event that cost the lives of 5 officers and the injury of seven others.

My heart goes out to the victims and their families and friends. Let us take a moment to pray for peace and comfort to those who have lost friends and families through this tragic event.

Our black brothers and sisters have influenced our lives and cultures in so  many wonderful and beautiful  ways.

Imagine how our world would be without this incredible and amazing race. Their influence has shaped our music, sports, pop culture, athletics, etc. They have made us laugh, cry and celebrate through their influences in our lives on the big screen, on the stage, in the court, in our books, etc.

They have shaped our lives  through their involvement  in policies and legislation from being  presidential members of AMA, to the Supreme Court Justices and all the way up to the oval office.

According to an article from Huffpost, there are 7 things that wouldn’t exist without black people. The article points out it was black people who invented the ice cream scoop, traffic light, super soaker water gun, the potato chip, and the Dougie Dance. Other great African-Americans like Lewis Laitimer perfected the light bulb that Thomas Edition invented. Daniel H. Williams was the first surgeon to do open heart surgery successfully.

I have met so many wonderful African-Americans from all walks of life and have cherished every special  friendship  I have with these amazing and special people. They are very special and unique people who I find quite real and unpretentious which is so refreshing in this day and age.

I especially love and adore one of my favorite past clients who is probably one of the oldest African-Americans around at 107 years of age. She is still alert,oriented and thriving. She and I have one major thing in common. We are both color blind. We see people’s heart and inner beauty and not their color or race. She loves people from all walks of life and is planning on being around for at least one to two more years.

I have deep gratitude for the black people on their pioneer work for paving the way for  greater equality in the United States. Thanks to their hard work, struggles and determination and the work and leadership of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr,  there is much more equality in the world for both the black people and many immigrants.

Despite all the gains that were achieved in the past five to six decades, it is sad to see that discrimination still exists.

There is still much pain in the black people’s heart. Understanding the depth and magnitude of black people suffering   is sometimes difficult to fully comprehend.

I am greatly saddened by this and pray that humanity and our society can evolve further. We need to realize that our black brothers and sisters are very special and great people that have a lineage that had its origins in the early African civilization. Let’s send a lot of love, prayer and healing to this incredible group of people. Take time to tell them how they are loved the perfect way they are. Perhaps if enough of our love soaks up their wounds, they will be begin to realize the greatness they have inside.

I have seen discrimination as a youth and was also a victim of discrimination from people within my race as well as people outside of it.

I have even been subjected to discrimination by my own people when I was a youth. I have been called an ABC  ( American Born Chinese).  I have  never understood  the logic of that. I am an American but was born Chinese? When immigrants use those terms to label us who born here, it is done so in a derogatory sense whether intentionally or unintentionally.When they call me an ABC,  I usually joke  about it and tell them I am not one. Instead, I am a CBS (Chinese born in San Francisco). My  reply usually causes them to chuckle and give me an inquisitive and puzzled look.

So much of what we say are memes  and have no bearing on the truth. We are conditioned to say something or feel a certain  way about a certain groups of people or about a situation based on what we were taught as children. The problem is that  we may never question the validity of it and the ramifications of saying certain things or holding certain discriminatory ideas. Many people are blinded by memes most of their lives.

After my awakening, I have come to realize I am not bounded by my color, skin, ethnicity or race. Beneath the layers of clothes is a beautiful soul that is hidden from an untrained eye.

Through my relentless search for the truth, I  have come to realize that I am really a SBOE( Soul born on Earth). As I  probed further,  I realized that I am  really a SBF-G/S. Soul born from God or Source.

We are all creations and children of God and have his stamp of Divinity within all of us. Hence, we are really one family, one Divine Mind and one Divine Consciousness of God.

Though the world may try and divide us into groups like Asian, Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Middle Eastern, etc,  we are all really not that separate but truly connected at a deep and Divine level.

We are all beautiful and diverse expressions of God’s Love and Consciousness.

Black is beautiful and is one amazing and extraordinary expression of God as I have already discussed.

Yellow, Red, White  and all other colors are also beautiful and magnificent  expressions of God’s  Presence.
My brothers and sisters, please stop looking at each other in terms of colors of white, black,  yellow,  red and all other colors in between.

In the depths of our being, we all have the different spectrums of the rainbow at different energetic points in our bodies. We all have that  within and without us. This rainbow connection ultimately  connects us to our Heavenly Father. When we achieve spiritual mastery, we can be one with this rainbow body and transcend karma and even death.

The true enemy is not our colors, skins, ideologies, religion, ethnicity. The true foe  to greater unity in the world is fear, anger, greed, desire, want, lust, ignorance and self-righteousness. These are by-products of an dysfunctional  ego. This is a result of spiritual poverty which is so rampant in the world. Even some of the world’s richest are in spiritual poverty because they are seduced by the whims and desires of their dysfunctional  ego or illusory  self.

Black lives matter and I love and support my black brothers and sisters.  It is equally important that we also acknowledge  and realize that all lives matter as well as all of creation from all creatures great and small. All life is sacred and precious.

I pray that we continue to support our men in uniform who include our law enforcement and military personnel and pray that discrimination will not be tolerated there or any where else.

I pray also  that our law enforcement reevaluate how they approach a situation, how they deal with it, and to use the least fatal method to resolve a crisis. There are alternative non-fatal methods of dealing with a situation that includes  using pepper spray, sound or water as a means to resolve a situation. More training should be spent on how to assess if a situation is a true threat or not.

Let’s pray for a world where we can all be viewed as unique expressions of God that deserves to be respected, loved and accepted the way we are.  This can all be achieved when we overcome spiritual poverty. The path to ending it starts with opening the door of our hearts to the Divine Presence within us, closing the door to our ego and surrender ourselves completely to God’s Love and Magic Presence within us and all of creation.  Let us come together in love and stop the violence like what Rev Hood ( the white organizer of the peaceful protest) said. Let us stop living in this world of duality but come together as a humanity and think in terms of us instead of we against  them.

Let’s be the change we want to see on the world. True change can only start from us once we make a decision to transcend any racial, color, gender, ideological differences and embrace the Divine thread of Love that connects all of us together by God’s Love, Light and Consciousness.

Help end spiritual  poverty now! Love your neighbors as you love yourself for love is of God. Love is God. To understand love is to understand God. Hate, violence and anger only keeps us away from each other and God. Become love and become active expressions of God and become eternal and limitless. The path to God is our salvation and freedom to our soul. It leads to self-realization, awakening and our full  awareness and consciousness of our true Divine Nature which transcends colors, creed, dogmas, race, religions and ideology.

May Love, Peace and Harmony prevail on Earth in our life times.

Love,

Blake Sinclair
