Everything we need to experience the “living water springing up from within” is found within us.
It has been given freely by the Creator.
If we nurture our inner connection with the Creator, there is no conditions on this, but if we allow our mind and heart to be blackened by negativity (like the belief in a boogeyman) it disconnects us from our true nature, which is that of the Creator.
It is we ourselves that open the door to negativity, not any force outside us.
It is about our choices, and where they lead us.
That is my 2 cents, and of course can be taken or left at your discretion.
Reality is Dharma
