Exclusive Focus Causes God’s Reciprocation. {148.}


Radhasoami Dayal Ki Daya
Radhasoami Sahai

May Compassionate Radhasoami Shower His Grace
May Radhasoami Help
****

Radhasoami!
****

I am nought save in my faith.
I think of nothing else.
I value only God’s Pleasure.
I desire only redemption soon.
I speak only about mysticism.
I do but serve Mission.

I am shut to all else
and singlemindedly concentrated on my goal.

The inevitable has to occur,
is happening now,
and will naturally continue
until my faith stands fully consummated.

God shall really become and prove
the reality and experience
to my entire life and fate.  

So, let Grace work miracles,
even as I humbly pray
to the Supreme Force that causes
this entire existential play.

Mysticism-Science: Meeting & Mating. {131.}

Radhasoami!
****

God, religion, spirituality, mysticism, magic, fiction,
science, technology, quantum physics, fuzzy logic,
are not inflexible categories
nor always totally in conflict
with one another;
their goals overlap
but methods vary.

As the years & decades roll by,
I predict a series of
unlikely trysts & weird flirtations,
until a formal engagement
makes them virtual bedfellows.

I wonder if any reader unravels
the perspective that I don’t seem
to care to fully elaborate yet;
but suffice it to say
an intellectual revolution lies ahead
that shall mellow the rigid distinctions
between science and religion
and result in a holistic weltanschauung.

O Lord, Fulfill Everyone’s Tasks. {100.}

****
Radhasoami!

Soami Tum kaaj Banaye saban ke.”

That is,
“O Lord, Fulfill everyone’s tasks.”

This is the opening line
of a favorite Paath {hymn} of mine.

The line stresses that it is God
Who finally consummates all matters.

It is a humble plea for Grace.

It is a simple expression of gratitude.

The prayer wants everyone’s tasks --
not desires -- to be realized.

Most importantly, the prayer is
not selfish in its focus;
one seeks that the Lord
realize the tasks of all.

I may add that the word “tasks”
only inadequately conveys the import
that the word “kaaj” contains.

Indeed, the tasks are not worldly goals,
but basically denote the goal of salvation.

So, the hymn is a collective prayer
thanking the Lord for ensuring everyone's redemption.

Radhasoami!
