A Division of the Divine....

Neal Walsch describes the "christ in you" as:

....the individuated part of You that is the localized expression of the Universal Self.

Huh? 

Well, he goes on to explain it in a bit more detail. 

They must understand that humanity is not separate from the Divine, but IS the Divine, or a division of it. You might say that humanity is a “division of the Divine.” This helps people wrap their minds around the concept of Oneness with Divinity.

Many folks have a very difficult time seeing themselves as Divine. Yet if you tell them that they are part of that which is Divine, many people can go there. They can hang out in the place. They can embrace the concept. Partial magnificence is acceptable, total magnificence is not.

So we might say for our purposes here that humanity is a division of the Divine. That Which Is Divine created many divisions of Itself, and one of those divisions is called humanity. Even as a large company or corporation may have a division here and a division there without any of those divisions being in any sense separate from, or other than, the whole, so, too, does the Divine have a division here and a division there without any of those divisions being in any sense separate from, or other than, The Whole.

It is possible to be a division of something without being divided from it.

That’s an important concept for you to grasp if you are to have the Holy Experience. Please let me say it again. I said…

“It is possible to be a division of something without being divided from it.”

Think about that for a minute. Hold that concept in your mind. Humanity, as a Division of Divinity, is neither separate from, nor other than, The Whole.

A glass of water from the ocean, containing everything the ocean is...yet not all of the ocean.  Just another way of saying it.
